First-Principles Study of the Charge Transport Mechanisms in Lithium Superoxide

Lithium–air batteries have attracted intense interest due to their high energy density, yet their practical applications are still severely hindered by the low conductivity of lithium peroxide (Li2O2). Here, we perform first-principles calculations on the recently synthesized lithium superoxide (LiO2) which has the potential to replace its peroxide counterpart as the discharge product. Using HSE hybrid functional, we predict an electrical insulating behavior for LiO2. Excess electrons and holes will be localized on the oxygen dimer, thus forming small polarons that can diffuse by hopping between lattice sites. With the calculated concentrations and mobilities of the intrinsic charge carriers, we show that the charge transportation in LiO2 is governed by the migration of hole polarons and positively charged oxygen dimer vacancies. The electronic conductivity associated with polaron hopping (3 × 10–12 S cm–1) exceeds that of Li2O2 by 8 orders of magnitude, while a comparable value (4 × 10–12 S cm–1) is foun.
A Study of Stroke in Individuals less than 45 Years of Age

To assess clinical features, risk factors and etiology of stroke in individual’s age group of 15-45 years. All young patients in the age group of 15-45 years admitted to Kasturba hospital, Manipal with ischaemic strokes (based on CT or MRI Brain scan) from October 2018 to June 2020 were recruited in this prospective study after obtaining prior informed consent. Each patient was examined in detail and evaluated according to common proforma. Of 332 total ischaemic stroke patients admitted during the study period, 74 had stroke in young with smoking (40.5%), hypertension (33.8%), diabetes (17.6%) and existing heart disease (14.8%) were found to be the most common risk factors involved. Aetiology of young stroke patients in the present study could be identified in 46 (62.1%) of patients and no cause was found in 28 (37.8%). As majority constitutes modifiable risk factors, there is significant scope for primary and secondary prevention of ischaemic stroke in the young and a sincere attempt should be made to identify the risk factors and etiology in such cases.
Check all that apply (CATA) as an instrument for the development of fish products

The objective of this paper is to develop a fish-based product. Through the innovative sensorial check all that apply (CATA) technique, employed in two stages of the development of the product – market research and the sensorial and hedonistic characterization of the final product – the aim was to develop a fish by-product that could respond to the needs of the consumer market. Results showed that the CATA technique is an important instrument for researching the consumer market and indicated the kind of fish by-product to be developed and its desired features. Nugget was the resulting by-product. The second application of CATA made possible the sensorial description of the by-product as being crisp, with little fish odor, light in color, well-seasoned and tasty. Therefore, the CATA technique proved to be an important research instrument in the fish consumption market as well as a quick technique for the complete description of fish nuggets.
Role of Montelukast in Alleviation of Toxicity Induced by Cadmium in Thyroid Gland of Adult Male Albino Rats. (Histological, Immunohistochemical and Biochemical Study)

Background: Cadmium is a common toxic heavy metal of great concern for environmental pollution and human health. It is extensively used in many industries as radiation screens, rechargeable batteries and pigments. Montelukast is a powerful highly effective anti-inflammatory drug. Recently it shows significant antioxidant properties.Aim of the Study: evaluate the effect of Cadmium on thyroid glands and to assess the possible protective role of MontelukastMaterials and Methods: Forty adult male albino rats were divided into four equal groups received treatment for 6 weeks: (I) (Control group) received distilled water. (II) (Cadmium group)"3mg/kg". (III) (Recovery group) kept untreated for another 6 weeks after Cadmium administration with the same dose and period as pervious group. (IV) (Montelukast and Cadmium group) received Montelukast "10mg/kg" and Cadmium"3mg/kg". At the end, all animals were sacrificed. Thyroid gland samples were obtained for histological and immunohistochemical studies. Blood samples were obtained for hormonal assay. Data was statistically analyzed.Results: Histological examination of thyroid glands of Cadmium treated rat’s showed disorganization and irregularity in the follicles. The follicular cells appeared distorted with pyknotic nuclei and some cell desquamated in follicular lumen. Colloid retraction within the follicles, cellular infiltration around congested blood vessels and marked collagen fibers deposition in connective tissue septae were detected. Significant increase in Caspase-3 immune expression in the follicular cell’s cytoplasm was noticed. High significant decrease of thyroid hormone (T3, T4) level was noticed. These changes were still seen in the recovery group. Co-administration of Montelukast showed obvious protection against the hazardous effects of Cadmium. Conclusion: Cadmium induces marked thyroid tissue damage via, fibrosis and apoptosis. These structural changes can be alleviated by combined treatment with Montelukast.
Insights Into the Zebrafish Olfactory System: A comprehensive Structural, Lectin- and Immunohistochemical Approach

Fish chemosensory olfactory receptors allow them to detect a wide range of water-soluble chemicals, that mediate fundamental behaviours. Zebrafish possess a well-developed sense of smell which governs reproduction, appetite, and fear responses. The spatial organization of functional properties within the olfactory epithelium and bulb are comparable to those of mammals, making this species suitable for studies of olfactory differentiation and regeneration and neuronal representation of olfactory information. The advent of genomic techniques has been decisive for the discovery of specific olfactory cell types and the identification of cell populations expressing vomeronasal receptors. These advances have marched ahead of morphological and neurochemical studies. This study aims to fill the existing gap in specific histological, lectin-histochemical and immunohistochemical studies on the olfactory rosette and the olfactory bulb of the zebrafish. Tissue dissection and microdissection techniques were employed, followed by histological staining techniques, lectin-histochemical labelling (UEA, LEA, BSI-B4) and immunohistochemistry using antibodies against G proteins subunits ao and ai2, growth-associated protein-43, calbindin, calretinin, glial-fibrillary-acidic-protein and luteinizing-hormone-releasing-hormone. The results obtained enrich the available information on the neurochemical patterns of the zebrafish olfactory system, pointing to a greater complexity than the one currently considered, especially when taking into account the peculiarities of the nonsensory epithelium.
Normal coordinate treatment of some pyridines

A 53-parameter modified valence force field has been obtained for pyridine, pyridine-d5 and 2,6-difluoro pyridine. The force constants have been refined using vibrational frequencies employing Overlay-least-squares technique. Eigen vectors and potential energy distributions were computed. They have been used to propose unambiguous vibrational assignments for both in-plane and out-of-plane vibrational frequencies of the three molecules. On this basis certain assignments proposed by earlier workers have been revised.
Étude exploratoire des obstacles à la transition universitaire selon le vécu d’étudiants français et belges

La transition universitaire est une periode ponctuee de defis que l’etudiant devra pouvoir relever pour s’adapter a son nouvel environnement. Alors que l’analyse concrete des obstacles a la transition reste encore trop peu developpee dans la litterature scientifique ; la plupart des etudes se concentrant sur les determinants centres sur l’etudiant, la transition universitaire est generalement consideree comme un processus universel et invariant entre les pays et les etablissements. Neanmoins, les particularites nationales et institutionnelles laissent presager que les contextes de transition seraient specifiques et n’impliqueraient pas toujours exactement les memes defis d’adaptation. Afin de repondre a ces limites, cet article propose de realiser une comparaison exploratoire du vecu des etudiants entre une universite francaise et une universite belge et d’etudier les caracteristiques des deux contextes qui se distinguent en regard des obstacles percus par les etudiants lors de leur transition universitaire. Les analyses montrent des similitudes mais egalement d’importantes differences telles qu’une plus grande perception d’obstacles pour les femmes d’un niveau socio-economique faible dans le cas belge et de plus fortes differences entre les secteurs d’etudes dans le cas francais. La discussion proposee en fin d’article est enrichie par une presentation de perspectives futures pour faire avancer le debat sur l’impact de la diversite de contextes dans l’enseignement superieur.
Clinical Study of Patients with Oral Lichenoid Processes Attending Khanzad Specialized Teaching Center and Erbil Dermatology Teaching Center

Background: Lichen planus is a common chronic inflammatory disease of the skin and mucous membranes. Oral Lichenoid Reactions (OLRs) comprise a group of lesions with different causative factors such as systemic medication, dental restorative materials, foods, or flavoring agents. Pathologists often group these conditions under the umbrella term of „lichenoid processes‟. Objective: To provide prevalence and demographic distribution of Oral Lichen Planus (OLP) and OLR among a sample of patients. Patients and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in the Khanzad Teaching Center and Erbil Dermatology Teaching Center. The diagnosis of patients with OLP and OLR were suspected clinically and histopathologically confirmed. Eighty patients of OLP and OLR have been enrolled from both centers. Detailed case histories and clinical presentations were recorded through a questionnaire. Results: Among those patients, 60 (75.0%) were diagnosed as OLP, and 20 (25.0%) patients diagnosed as OLR. Their mean age ± SD was 49.01 ± 11.22 years. Bilateral buccal mucosa (83.8%) was the most affected sites in both groups. The most common clinical types were reticular (90%), and erosive (33.8%). Only 7 patients (8.8%) had an associated skin lichen planus (SLP). Conclusion: The present study revealed that the buccal mucosa was the most affected site, followed by the tongue and palate. The reticular type was the most common affected type followed by the erosive type.
Breath analysis for the screening and diagnosis of diseases

Abstract Exhaled breath contains small molecules and complex volatile organic compounds (VOCs) such as H2O, CO2, NO, NH3, ketones, aldehydes, alcohols, and hydrocarbons. Analysis of VOCs can provide valuable information about health status, especially in several disorders and disease conditions. In view of pandemics like the recent COVID-19 incidences, Breath Analysis, which is totally noninvasive and can be adapted for Remote/In Situ Point-Of-Care (POC) use, require special attention in current health-care technology. A variety of techniques have been used for the detection of VOCs for decades. Mass spectrometry, laser spectroscopy and more recently e-noses (made up of nano-particle and metal oxide sensors) are the most popular methods. Most VOCs are present in exhaled breath at parts per million (ppm), parts per billion (ppb) and parts per trillion (ppt) levels only. Detection of VOCs even at such low-levels can be correlated with certain diseases, and they can be regarded as biomarkers of such ailments. A review of the various studies that have been carried out in breath analysis, together with a comparison of the different techniques available today, with their advantages and disadvantages, are presented in this article. The challenges and future prospects of the various techniques in providing viable technology for screening and early detection of various disease conditions are also discussed in brief.

Borassus aethiopum Ripe Fruits’ Dried Pulp as Egg Yolk Coloration Agent

The essay assessed Borassus aethiopum (B.a) ripe fruits’ dried pulp effect on egg yolk coloration. First, thirty-six Harco laying hens, 42 weeks old with similar weight (α=0.05) were allotted in 12 cages of 4m2 (2m x 2m, respectively for length x width) each. Second, 4 laying hens’ diets were formulated; a yellow corn-based diet (YC), a white corn-based diet (WC), a white corn-based diet supplemented with 10% of B.a mature fruits’ dried pulp (WC+10%B.a), and finally a white corn-based diet supplemented with 20% of B.a ripe fruits’ dried pulp (WC+10%B.a). During the evaluations, similar eggs for weights were analyzed. As a result, rich pigment diets formed a group and produced the heaviest egg yolk compared to the WC diet, for 13.94+0.16 g versus 13.64+0.16 g. Whereas, WC diet delivered the heaviest albumin weights, 31.92+0.33 g versus 29.27+0.33 g for WC+10%B.a which had the lightest weight. Looking at eggs’ yolks color, Roche yolk color fan distinguished just 2 levels whose were the pale egg yolk from WC graded 1, and the intense colored yolks group graded 6. A spectrophotometer reflectance method helped for better yolks color distinctions. The yolks’ yellow colors from WC+10%B.a (b*=52.29), WC+20%B.a (b*=52.49) and YC (b*=52.22) were similar (p=0.7278). But, the WC+10%B.a diet egg yolk color was significantly higher than that of WC (b*=20.70; p<0.0001). In conclusion, Borassus aethiopum mature fruits’ dried pulp can be incorporated into laying hens feed as natural pigments’ source.
Highly Selective Ionic Transport through Subnanometer Pores in Polymer Films

Novel transport phenomena through nanopores are expected to emerge as their diameters approach subnanometer scales. However, it has been challenging to explore such a regime experimentally. Here, this study reports on polymer subnanometer pores exhibiting unique selective ionic transport. 12 μm long, parallel oriented polymer nanopores are fabricated in polyethylene terephthalate (PET) films by irradiation with GeV heavy ions and subsequent 3 h exposure to UV radiation. These nanopores show ionic transport selectivity spanning more than 6 orders of magnitude: the order of the transport rate is Li+>Na+>K+>Cs+>>Mg2+>Ca2+>Ba2+, and heavy metal ions such as Cd2+ and anions are blocked. The transport can be switched off with a sharp transition by decreasing the pH value of the electrolyte. Structural measurements and molecular dynamics simulations suggest that the ionic transport is attributed to negatively charged nanopores with pore radii of ≈0.3 nm, and the selectivity is associated with the dehydration effect.

Conclusion: The study found that women are the most affected by the infection, as well as being single represented a risk factor, and risk behaviors, such as presence of larvae and breeding of mosquitos at home, reflect a low level of awareness of the disease.
Tapping the Potential of Pigai Automated Writing Evaluation (AWE) Program to Give Feedback on EFL Writing

With the rapid development of educational technology, studies on automated writing evaluation (AWE) program have been gaining more ground in EFL writing education, particularly due to its potential in giving continuous, formative feedback on students' writing performance. However, little research has paid attention to the effectiveness of giving and receiving AWE feedback on improving EFL learners' writing performance from cognitive, constructive and sociocultural dimensions. By drawing on the Cognitive Constructivism theory, particularly the Cognitive process writing theory, and Sociocultural theory in particular the notion of the Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD) and Scaffolding, this article reviews past studies done on the use of AWE programs in teaching English writing and this article also attempts to propose for an AWE program called Pigai to be embedded as a teaching paradigm for EFL teachers to apply in writing classes for Chinese EFL students in China in giving continuous and formative feedback to their students, in order to improve English writing teaching and positively affect EFL students' writing performance. At the end of the article, the authors also offer strategies of the implementation of the Pigai AWE program through a framework for Pigai to be used with EFL learners.
Joint Modeling of Hypertension Measurements and Time-to-Onset of Preeclampsia Among Pregnant Women Attending Antenatal Care Service at Arerti Primary Hospital, North Shoa, Ethiopia

Background: Preeclampsia is a hypertensive disorder of pregnancy that affects 2-8% of pregnant women. It is the major cause of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality worldwide. The purpose of this study was to identify factors associated with hypertension measurements and time-to-onset of preeclampsia among pregnant women attending antenatal care service at Arerti Primary Hospital. Methodology: A retrospective longitudinal study design was employed on a total of 201 pregnant women attending the antenatal clinic of Arerti Primary Hospital between September 2018 and June 2019. A closed-form sample size formula for estimating the effect of the longitudinal data on time-to-event was used. To analyze our data we employed descriptive method, linear mixed effect model, Cox-PH model and joint models for longitudinal and survival outcomes.Relevantdemographicandclinicalcovariateswereincludedinsubmodels. Results: This study revealed that baseline age, visiting times, weight, diabetes, history of PE and parity had significantly associated with mean change in the BP measurements. From the Cox model result, age, weight, history of PE and marital status were associated with a significant hazard of developing preeclampsia. The univariate joint models reveal that the each longitudinal BP measurements are significantly associated with hazard of developing preeclampsia. Form the bi-ariate joint model; only DBP is significantly associated with risk of developing PE. Conclusion: As the result obtained in this study, we summarized that, age, weight, history of PE and marital status had a significant effect on time to developing preeclampsia. Furthermore, due to significance of association between the longitudinal BP measurements and time to onset of preeclampsia, joint model analysis was suggested as it incorporates all information simultaneously and provides valid and efficient inferences over separate models analysis.
