    Abstract The effects of post heat treatment atmosphere on microstructure and corrosion resistance of duplex stainless steel welded joints were investigated. Post weld heat treatment (PWHT) was carried out with and without protective atmospheres. Nitrogen and argon are used as protective gases individually. Detailed microstructure examination (optical and SEM) demonstrates that nitrides precipitates are highly observed in the welded zones for nitrogen protected samples. An observed drop of ferrite volume fraction in post weld heat treated samples compared with welded samples without heat treatment leading to corrosion resistance enhancement of heat treated welded joints. An exception for using nitrogen as heat treatment atmosphere a decreased corrosion resistance of weldments is investigated due to nitride precipitates. An increase in the weld zone hardness for post weld heat treated samples compared with base alloy. The initial hardness of duplex stainless steel was 286 Hv while average hardness of weld zone was 340, 411, 343, and 391 Hv for as welded, PWHT using air, argon, and nitrogen atmospheres, respectively. Weld zone hardness increased to 33, 44, 20, and 37%. A significant decrease in the ultimate tensile strength and elongation after PWHT. The initial Ultimate tensile strength duplex stainless steel base material was 734.9 MPa while Ultimate tensile strength of the welded joints was 769.3, 628.4, 737.8, and 681.4 MPa for the following conditions: as welded, PWHT using air, argon, and nitrogen atmospheres, respectively.

    Abstract Radiological staff, especially radiographers, work as front liners against the COVID-19 outbreak. This study aims to assess compliance with radiation protection and infection control practices during COVID-19 mobile radiography procedures. This cross-sectional study included 234 radiographers (females, 56%, n = 131; males, 44%, n = 103) who were asked to complete an online questionnaire consisting of demographic data, radiation protection and infection control practices during COVID-19 portable cases, and knowledge and awareness. After informed consent was completed, SPSS statistical software was used for the data analysis. The most common age group of participants ranged from 18 to 25 years old (30.3%, n = 71). Bachelor's degree holders were 74.4% (n = 174). Most radiographers (39.7%, n = 93) had a working experience of 1-5 years, followed by 27.8% (n = 65) with more than 16 years of experience. Most respondents (62.4%, n = 146) handled approximately 1-5 cases daily, the majority of them (56%, n = 131) stated affirmatively they had obtained special training to handle COVID-19, and when inquired if they had received any special allowances for handling COVID-19 suspected/confirmed cases most of them stated negative (73.9%, n = 173). Most participants stated that they always wear a TLD during portable cases (67.1%, n = 157) and a lead apron (51.7%, n = 121). Around 73% (n = 171) knew the latest information on COVID-19 and attended the COVID-19 awareness course. A significant association was found between the work experience of the radiographers and their responses to following the best practices (p = 0.018, α = 0.05). Radiographers who had COVID-19 training (μ = 48.78) tend to adhere more to best practices than those who have not (p = 0.04, α = 0.05). Further, respondents who handled more than 16/more COVID-19 suspected/confirmed cases followed the best practices more (μ = 50.38) than those who handled less (p = 0.04, α = 0.05). This study revealed detailed information on radiation protection and infection control practices during COVID-19 mobile radiography. It has been observed that the participants/radiographers have good knowledge and awareness of radiation protection and infection-control practices. The present results may be used to plan future requirements regarding resources and training to ensure patient safety.

    Abstract Context: Management of urinary tract infections (UTIs) is caused by antibiotic resistance uropathogens.
    Aim: This study aimed to determine the important uropathogens and their resistance to first-line urinary tract antimicrobial agents.
    Settings and design: The region of Aseer, Southern Saudi Arabia, between 2013 and 2016.
    Materials and methods: A total of 1506 isolates were recovered from the urine samples of patients that were identified and tested against nine first-line UTI antimicrobial agents. Laboratory analysis was done as per the standard methods. Confirmation of bacterial identity and antimicrobial susceptibility assay was achieved by the VITEK 2 automated system.
    Statistical analysis used: Statistical Package for the Social Sciences software version 21.0 was used for the statistical analysis.
    Results: The dominant uropathogens were
    Conclusions: The present study recommends the use of fosfomycin, cefoxitin, nitrofurantoin, and amoxicillin/clavulanate as the first choice UTIs treatment given their relatively high

    Abstract Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is among the most prevalent and lethal cancers worldwide. Chitosan-coated iron oxide nanocomposite (Fe₃O₄/Cs) is a promising bio-nanomaterial for many biological applications. The objective of this research was to evaluate the anticancer efficacy of Fe₃O₄/Cs against HCC in animal models. Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles were prepared and added to chitosan solution; then, the mixture was exposed to gamma radiation at a dose of 20 kGy. Rats have received diethylnitrosamine (DEN) orally at a dose of 20 mg/kg body weight 5 times per week during a period of 10 weeks to induce HCC and then have received Fe₃O₄/Cs intraperitoneal injection at a dose of 50 mg/kg body weight 3 times per week during a period of 4 weeks. After the last dose of Fe₃O₄/Cs administration, animals were sacrificed. DEN induced upregulation of PI3K/Akt/mTOR and MAPK (ERK, JNK, P38) signaling pathways and inflammatory markers (TLR4, iNOS, and TNF-α). DEN also decreases cleaved caspase-3 and increases liver enzymes (ALT, AST, and GGT) activities. Administration of Fe₃O₄/Cs significantly ameliorated the above-mentioned parameters.
