Role of the Surgical-Ward Nurse in Identifying, Escalating, and Managing Postoperative Anastomotic Leak in Colorectal Patients: A Narrative Synthesis in an Australian Nursing Perspective
Abstract: Purpose: Postoperative colorectal anastomotic leak (AL) is one of the most feared complications after colorectal surgery because of its association with sepsis, reoperation, mortality, prolonged hospital stay, delayed adjuvant therapy, and permanent stoma formation. This narrative practice review outlines the frontline role of surgical-ward nurses in the early identification, escalation, and interim management of AL within the Australian acute-care context. Methods: A narrative synthesis of contemporary consensus statements, systematic reviews, …

Variations of Macroplastics in Water and Sediments at Bundu Waterfront, Upper Bonny Estuary, Rivers State, Nigeria
Abstract: Macroplastic pollution has become an increasingly severe environmental challenge, particularly in urban waterfronts where waste management is inadequate. Bundu Waterfront of the Upper Bonny Estuary in Port Harcourt, Rivers State is a sink for macroplatics from careless disposal of solid wastes and inadequate management thus affecting the biological integrity and aquatic life of this estuary. The resultant impact of the macroplastics on abiotic factors through the evaluation of different floating …

Listening to Colonial Disruption: Sound, Silence, and Cultural Memory in the Works of Chinua Achebe
Abstract: This article examines the significance of sound and silence in the fiction of Chinua Achebe, arguing that auditory experience functions as a crucial medium through which cultural memory, identity, and resistance are represented. Although Achebe’s novels have been extensively studied in relation to colonialism, nationalism, and language politics, comparatively little attention has been paid to their acoustic dimensions. Drawing on postcolonial theory, oral tradition studies, and cultural memory studies, this …

Dynamic Analysis of Honeycomb Sandwich Laminated Composite Plate using ANSYS
Abstract: A structural sandwich is a peculiar form of a laminated composite comprising of a combination of distinct materials which are bonded together to use effectively the properties of each separate component to the structural advantage of the whole assembly. Two thin, rigid and quite strong faces in the framework are partitioned by a thick, light and weaker core. The faces are attached adhesively to the core to ensure effective load …

Effect of Leading-Edge Roughness on the Aerodynamic Characteristics of the Wind Turbine blade
Abstract: Leading-Edge Roughness (LER) strongly dictates boundary layer transition and performance degradation on an airfoil operating at transitional Reynolds numbers, an aerodynamic regime where shear-layer stability mechanisms remain highly complex. The wind tunnel experiments were conducted to investigate the aerodynamic impacts of surface roughness applied over 25% of the chord of a NACA 0018 airfoil using two discrete roughness gradations. Surface roughness induces an early boundary layer trip, causing elevated section …

Maternal and Infant Pollutant Exposure through Breastfeeding in Industrial Punjab
Abstract: Because of their lasting presence, bioaccumulation in the food chain and/or potential for transferring to infants through breastfeeding, environmentally persistent chemical pollutants, such as per- and polyfluoroalkyl compounds (PFAs), pesticides, heavy metals and industrial emissions, represent significant public health threats. A study was conducted using a structured questionnaire to gather information about maternal demographics (age, education, marital status), how mothers were exposed to environmental contaminants through occupational activities, the ways …

A Study on Clinical Evaluation of Multi Intervention Therapy for Enhancing Quality of Life in Maintenance Hemodialysis Patients
Abstract: Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) receiving maintenance hemodialysis often report a markedly impaired health-related quality of life, largely resulting from factors such as psychological distress, chronic inflammation, and poor nutritional status. Despite its importance as a clinical outcome, HRQOL assessment in dialysis patients has received limited attention. Strengthening comprehensive patient care and optimizing treatment strategies may help reduce complications and promote improved physical, mental, and social well-being. The present …
