Abstract	Introduction and importance: Diverticula of the vermiform appendix are rare entities. Although the pathogenesis and natural course of appendiceal diverticulitis (AD) are different from acute appendicitis, AD is treated like acute appendicitis because of similar clinical manifestations and low incidence. Case presentation: We describe cases of two male patients of different ages who respectively underwent elective laparoscopic appendectomy and an emergent laparoscopic appendectomy in a multi-speciality hospital in Kerala, India. Both of them had acute appendicitis, as confirmed by imaging and laboratory testing. Subsequent histopathological examination revealed AD. Clinical discussion: AD is an uncommon but potentially more serious form of appendiceal disease that can mimic acute appendicitis or malignancy. The first patient mimicked a malignancy with the mass presentation, while the second case presented like appendicitis. Unlike colonic diverticula, AD diverticula are typically not detectable by imaging or colonoscopy, which poses a diagnostic challenge. Conclusion: In patients who present with lower abdominal pain or who may have appendicitis, AD should be considered as a differential diagnosis.

Abstract	Hydrochloric acid is prevalent in numerous industries; leakage of this acid may cause persistent problems in the soil. The study aims to prevent any adverse impact of acid on the strength characteristics of silty clay soil by modifying the soil's acid resistance. In this study, unconfined compression tests are performed to investigate the strength of contaminated silty clay soil with concentrations of 4%, 8%, and 12% of HCl solution and the strength of treated soil with 0.4%, 0.5%, 0.6%, and 0.8% of nano-magnesium oxide. In addition, the strength of the soil enhanced with nano-MgO contaminated with different concentrations of hydrochloric acid was investigated to assess the effect of nano-MgO on modifying the acid resistance of clay soil. Moreover, the FE-SEM test was performed to analyze the microstructure of the soil under different circumstances. Based on the results, the strength of clay soil decreased due to contamination with the hydrochloric acid solutions; the reduction in strength was more noticeable when the acid solution became more acidic. Adding 0.6% of nano-magnesium oxide enhances the strength by about 114%. Findings show that adding 0.6% nano-MgO to the soil before exposing it to hydrochloric acid can enhance its acid resistance; the strength of the treated soil with nano-MgO was better at resisting the acid than the untreated soil.

Abstract	Pneumonia is one of the illnesses for which pulmonary embolism (PE) is most often mistaken because of the considerable overlap in their clinical picture. Moreover, pneumonia may occasionally mask PE, particularly in patients with predominant systemic symptoms such as fever, and with no evidence of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or trauma. In this report, we presented a 35-year-old male patient with pneumonia and PE in whom pneumonia initially masked the diagnosis of PE. The patient presented with fever, productive cough associated with streaks of blood and pleuritic chest pain for 3 days duration, and was admitted as a case of lobar pneumonia based on his clinical presentation as well as on chest X-ray and non-enhanced computed tomography chest. He had an initial improvement in response to antibiotics; however, during his follow-up at the clinic, he appeared sick, complaining of right-sided persistent pleuritic chest pain and persistent cough, occasionally associated with streaks of blood and breathlessness on exertion. The patient was readmitted and PE was confirmed by computed tomography pulmonary angiography. Anticoagulation initiated with noticeable clinical improvement. This case highlights the importance of considering PE in patients with pneumonia when there was an initial therapeutic response followed by worsening of the condition during the treatment of pneumonia.

Abstract	Vaccination is key to developing herd immunity against COVID-19; however, the attitude of Nigerians towards being vaccinated stalled at the 70% vaccination target. This study engages Theory of Planned Behaviour to analyse the tone of Nigerian YouTube headlines/titles, and the tone of YouTube users' comments to examine the causes of COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy. YouTube videos uploaded between March 2021 and December 2022 were analysed using a content analytic approach. Results show 53.5% of the videos had a positive tone, while 40.5% were negative, and 6% neutral. Second, findings indicate most of the Nigerian YouTube users' comments were neutral (62.6%), while 32.4%, were negative, and 5% were positive. From the antivaccine themes, analysis shows the people's lack of trust in the government on vaccines (15.7%) and the presence of vaccine conspiracy theories mostly related to expressions of religion and biotechnology (46.08%) were the main causes of COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy in Nigeria. The study presents implications for theory and recommends ways for governments to develop better vaccination communication strategies.

Abstract	In order to satisfy the requirements of environmentally friendly construction projects and minimize greenhouse gas emissions, it was necessary to focus on utilizing nanomaterials instead of conventional materials to enhance clay soils; nano Magnesium Oxide was suggested for this study. The compression and unconfined compressive strength tests were achieved to assess the compressibility behavior and strength of silty clay treated using nano magnesium oxide. Additionally, an investigation into the alteration of the clay microstructure was conducted using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) tests. The silty clay utilized in this research is characterized by a compression index 0.23 and an undrained shear strength of 53 kPa. The soil was treated by adding different percentages of nano-MgO (0.4%, 0.5%, 0.6%, and 0.8%), and the curing period was seven days. The treated soil samples were prepared based on the optimal water content and maximal dry density of the natural soil. The results indicate that utilization of nano Magnesium Oxide leads to a reduction in both values of the index of compression (Cc) and recompression index (Cr), in addition to a decrease in the value of the coefficient of compressibility (av). Also, the test finding for unconfined compressive strength demonstrates a noticeable increase in strength as the percentage of nano-MgO increases, accompanied by a reduction in failure strain. Adding 0.6% (the optimum percentage) of nano Magnesium oxide enhances the strength by about 114% and decreases the value of the compression index by about 36% compared with natural soil.

Abstract	Background: Acute myeloid leukaemia in adult constitutes 80% of whole acute leukaemia cases; its frequency progressively increases with age. Objective: To evaluation the parameters of AML patients clinically and haematologically in Erbil City. Patients and Methods: A particular analysis of hospital records retrospective study of 29 patients with AML was taken on. The cases were analyzed and achieved at Nanakaly hospital in Erbil city during the years 20021-2022. Diagnosis was established on peripheral blood and bone marrow reports. The myeloid origin confirmation was concerned by cytochemistry, morphological subtyping was concerned according to the (FAB) criteria, biochemical tests, and cluster CDs was done by flowcytometery. Microsoft excel version 2010 and (GraphPad Prism 9.0.) was in employment for carrying out statistical analysis. Results: This study included 18 males and 11 females. Their ages ranged from 5 and 80 years with a mean age of 38.4 years. CD13 and CD33 are most expressed CD markers (75% and 70% respectively). CD22 and TdT lowest expressed CDs (10% and 5% respectively). Depending on the complete remission/Partial remission association, the p-value of platelets was significant (0.0207), CD64 and CD117 showed greater significant (<0.0001, <0.0001 respectively), BM hypercellularity fragments (P=0.0068), trials (P<0.0001), and blast percentage (P=0.0365). Conclusion: CDs and BM results are essential tools in the identification of AML. CD13 and CD33 are the most frequent CDs in this study. Morphologic valuation of BM was statistically significant, cellularity of BM and blast percentage was significantly correlated with post induction response in patients with AML.

Abstract	Limitation of research information on job satisfaction and enterprise success-remunerative business going concern of rice value chain actors especially the processors has been a challenge to the sustainability of the supportive policy driven rice value chain in the study area. Therefore, this necessitates research so as to identify the possible pitfalls alongside proffer viable scientific remedies that will enhance the sustainability of the entire rice value chain in the study area. Using a cross-sectional data obtained from a total of 133 and 67 par-boilers and millers respectively, through a well-structured questionnaire and interview schedule, the job satisfaction and agripreneurial success of micro-finance benefitted rice processors in Nigeria’s Jigawa state were investigated. Unlike the millers, it was established that majority of the par-boilers were not satisfied with the job and it owes majorly to poor job security and disincentive attitude of the supportive institutions. However, across the study target groups, despite the few hitches, majority of the enterprises were found to be successful and mutually owes to remunerative turnover ratio of the enterprise among others. Nonetheless, vulnerable household’s composition which exacerbates the pressure on the limited resources with negative consequence on the income capital base affected job satisfaction and agripreneurial success of the processors. Therefore, the study advises the policymakers to strength the macro-economic policies so as to enhance the sustainability of the entire rice value chain in the study area. Also, concerned stakeholders involved in policymaking need to intensify their campaign on the importance of sustainable livelihood by encouraging most of the actors to maintain a fair household size.
