Keywords : Alumni, website, PHP, MySQL, descriptive
Computer simulation of fullerene polymers interacting with DPPC membrane: patchy functionalised modification and sequence effect

ABSTRACT Coarse-grained molecular dynamic simulations are adopted to study the interaction of octamer (C60 fullerenes and their various derivatives – fullerenols) with DPPC lipid membranes. It is found that the translocation process of the octamer depends on the forms and proportion of functionalised modification. Our research suggests that the octamer was difficult to move into the core of lipid membrane, with the increase in patchy-modified hydroxyl groups. In addition, PMF calculations show that the functionalised fullerene polymers inserted into or adsorbed onto the bilayer are strongly energetically favourable. Our study provides reference information about the reduced toxicity of functionalised fullerene polymer.
Stress assessment among internal medicine residents in a level-3 hospital versus a level-2 hospital with only emergency room service for COVID-19

ABSTRACT Background Treating COVID-19 patients can affect anxiety. Objective To compare the anxiety of internal medicine residents treating COVID-19 patients at a level-3 hospital with a level-2 hospital. Methods A questionnaire related to COVID-19 and anxiety using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI-S) was sent to internal medicine residents of a COVID-19 referral level-3 hospital and a level-2 hospital from which all diagnosed COVID-19 cases are transferred to the COVID-19 referral hospital. Results Responses were received from 76.3% of the internal medicine residents. There was no difference in the anxiety scores between residents from the level-3 center (44.4) and the level-2 center (44.4), p = 0.9. There was a significant difference between the number of residents from the level-3 center, 22/56 (63%) and the number of residents from the level-2 center, 1/10 (10%) who were concerned about better protective gear (p = 0.003) and between residents from the level-3 center19/35 (54%) and those from the level-2 center, 1/10 (10%) who were concerned about infecting their families (p = 0.01). Conclusions The internal medicine resident anxiety scores were not a function of hospital level, but safety was less of a concerns in the level-2 center with only emergency room COVID-19 services.
Developmental Trauma and the Bad Object: Attachment, Identity, Reenactments

Abstract The author explores how continuous violations of a child’s subjectivity may influence his or her defensive strategies and maintenance of identity in adult life as well as how this may be supported through the use of interpersonal relationships. Effects of potential developmental disruptions are addressed along with the resulting formation of the false self. Defensive strategies in the form of clinging and distancing as a means of maintaining internal object relations, along with the symptomatic self, are described. In addition, the function of the internalized bad object is considered along with the importance of the individual’s attachment to it.
The role of antioxidant enzymes and phenolic compounds in disease resistance to Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. melonis race 1.2.

The fusarium oxysporum f. sp. melonis race 1.2 (Fom1.2) is one of the most destructive melonis disease that comes with considerable economic damage in the world wide. A total of 23 landraces and breeding lines of melon were collected from different region of Iran and were studied to find new sources of resistance ones. Seedlings after reaching at one to two true leaf stage were placed in a high inoculum concentrations of 1×106 spores per ml and their root were wounded. Indicator of disease severity was measured in plants using a semi quantitative scale from 1 to 5. Analysis of variance showed significant difference among genotypes under evaluation. Root samples from infected plants of all sensitive, and semi-resistant genotypes were taken for examine biochemical changes for 8 days. The activity of peroxidase (POX, EC 1.11.1.7), polyphenol oxidase (PPO, EC 1.14.18.1), Catalase (CAT, EC 1.11.1.6), and Superoxide dismutase (SOD, EC 1.15.1.1) and Phenolic compounds (PCs) were studied to identify relationship between disease resistance and enzymatic composition. The results showed that infection of melon seedling with F. oxysporum race 1.2 led to many biochemical changes. The level of antioxidant defensive enzyme and PCs content increased in response to infection by Fom1.2. The activity of POX, PPO, SOD, PCs and CAT approached to highest level at 4 and 6 days after inoculation, respectively. The results suggested that the increased activities of POX, PPO, SOD, CAT and PCs in melon genotypes are correlated with resistance of melon wilt disease caused by Fom1.2.
The Effect of Milk Fat on Cheddar Cheese Yield and Its Prediction, Using Modifications of the Van Slyke Cheese Yield Formula

This study investigated the effect of milk fat content, in the range 0.54 to 3.33% (wt/wt), on rennet coagulation properties and the composition, actual yield, and predicted yield, as determined by the Van Slyke formula, of low-fat, half-fat, reduced-fat, and full-fat Cheddar cheeses. The yields predicted using the original Van Slyke formula were significantly lower than the corresponding actual yields for the low-fat, half-fat, and reduced-fat Cheddar cheeses. A more accurate prediction of cheese yield was obtained when the Van Slyke formula was modified to account for denaturation of whey protein on pasteurization and for the differences in fat recovery and content of nonfat, nonprotein cheese solids among cheeses of different fat contents. Increasing milk fat content resulted in cheese with significantly higher contents of fat, moisture in the nonfat substance, and salt-in-moisture and lower contents of moisture, protein, and ash. Both actual and dry matter cheese yields increased with milk fat content at rates of 1.16 ± 0.15 and 0.93 ± 0.10 kg/kg of fat, respectively. The milk fat content did not significantly influence the content of protein lost in the bulk cheese whey (i.e., whey expressed during draining and cheddaring). In contrast, fat losses in the bulk whey decreased significantly with increasing milk fat content in the range 0.54 to 2.00% (wt/wt). However, further increase in milk fat content to 3.33% (wt/wt) resulted in an increase in the proportion of milk fat lost to the cheese whey.
Perspectives in the hurdle techniques in thepreservation of a non alcoholic beverage, zobo

The effect of some commonly used chemical preservatives (acetic acid and sodium benzoate), natural plant extracts (clove, garlic, ginger and lime) and pasteurization on the elongation of shelf-life of zobo beverage were investigated by determining total counts and characterization of microorganisms before and during storage at ambient temperature for 14 days. Five bacterial species, namely Staphylococcus aureus, Micrococcus leteus, Micrococcus rosues, Bacillus subtilis and Enterococcus faecalis were predominant isolates. Two fungal species, namely, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Rhizopus stolonifer were also isolated. Bacillus subtilis and Saccharomyces cerevisiae remained the predominant organisms throughout the storage. The role played by some of the isolates in food spoilage, deterioration and intoxication had been discussed. The microbial population increased for two days as the organisms utilize the nutrients present in the sample. There was a drastic reduction in microbial load as the effects of the preservative became evident, except for the control sample. Antimicrobial activities of the preservatives revealed that samples with chemical preservatives were most effective against bacteria and fungi species, followed by the natural plant extracts samples. Pasteurization confers temporary preservation as its effect was short lived. The phytochemical and antimicrobial activities of the plants used had been reported. Of all the samples, only those treated with chemical preservatives remained organoleptically attractive after preservation for 14 days. The overall reduction in the microbial population could be a concerted effort of the preservatives and exhaustion of nutrients in the zobo drink. The study recommends the use of chemical and natural preservatives to enhance the keeping quality of zobo beverage which conforms to good manufacturing practices globally.
Numerical study on heat transfer of Stirling engine heater tube with rectangular micro-ribs

Abstract Numerical simulations were carried out to study the heat transfer and friction characteristics for Stirling engine heater tubes with three-dimensional internal extended micro-rib. During the numerical simulations, phase angle in a cycle ranged from 0° to 360°. The results represent that the friction factor (f) increased with micro-rib length (L) and micro-rib height (H) for enhanced tube within the range of parameters in this study. For the micro-rib heat tube of L = 60 mm and H = 0.9 mm, the j was equal to 1.44 and the average Stanton number St was significantly improved up to 1.287 compared to smooth tube, the friction factor f was also increased by almost 2.32. The outlet pressure from 0.7 Mpa to 1 Mpa with the cosine change is presented as the phase angle increases. Therefore the benefits are apparent for micro-rib heat tube in Stirling engine.
Temporal variability of satellite-retrieved chlorophyll-a data in Arctic and subarctic ocean regions within the past two decades

ABSTRACT Two decades (1997–2017) of blended satellite-retrieved phytoplankton chlorophyll a concentration (Chl-a) data were used to assess the interannual variation and recent trends of phytoplankton biomass in Arctic and subarctic ocean (ASAO) regions. Satellite and reanalysis data for geophysical variables were used to assess the probable environmental factors responsible for the observed Chl-a changes. Aggregate Chl-a in the entire ASAO increased steadily from 1997 and then began to decline in the early 2010s. This decline reflects Chl-a declines in most ASAO regions, but the responsible factors and the year in which the trend reversal occurred varied greatly from region to region. In open ocean regions, large-scale climate variability might underlie the Chl-a decline, whereas, in semi-enclosed coastal waters and embayments, the underlying factors might be local or regional (including land–ocean interactions). Therefore, although sea surface temperatures in the ASAO continued to increase steadily, the decline in aggregate Chl-a in the ASAO is unlikely to be connected to global warming.
Hypotheses for the evolution of apical dominance in plants : implications for the interpretation of overcompensation

Apical dominance is the preferential growth of a plant shoot (or root) from the apical or terminal meristem, and the corresponding suppression of lateral subtending meristems and branches. The most obvious consequence of apical dominance is a linear directional growth pattern resulting in an extended shoot axis, e.g. tall rather than bushy growth forms. Although the physiology of apical dominance has been the subject of a vast of body of literature (Cline 1991), the ecological and evolutionary implications of apical dominance have been scarcely addressed (Salisbury and Marinos 1985). Under what circumstances is apical dominance favoured by natural selection? Are there predictable patterns in the strength of apical dominance across different habitat types or different life history strategies? Are there tradeoffs associated with strong apical dominance that may define potential fitness costs? In this paper I present a framework for addressing these questions by considering several hypotheses for the adaptive significance of apical dominance in plant shoots, and the interpretation of plant responses to the disruption of apical dominance by ecological factors. I use the term "apical dominance" in a broad sense to also include "apical control" which is sometimes used to distinguish the control exerted by an apical meristem on daughter branches (Cline 1991). Apical dominance may be disrupted by damage resulting from a variety of factors, but the one that has received the most attention recently in the literature is herbivory. In several species, flower, seed and/or biomass production have been shown to increase following herbivory or simulated herbivory involving removal or destruction of the shoot apex (e.g. Inouye 1982, Argall and Stewart 1984, Sheldon 1986, Aarssen and Turkington 1987, Paige and Whitham 1987, Benner 1988, Maschinski and Whitham 1989, Michaud 1991, Mopper et al. 1991, Strauss 1991). Such examples of overcompensation following herbivore damage have been interpreted by some as an adaptive response that has evolved as a consequence of natural selection due to herbivory, although reports of effects on lifetime fitness are lacking (see Belsky (1986) and Belsky et al. (1993) for recent critiques). Aarssen and Irwin (1991) however, interpreted such overcompensation as a product of release from apical dominance and hence an indirect consequence of whatever selection factors favour apical dominance. Under this interpretation, apical dominance incurs an apparent cost in terms of reduced growth potential resulting from lateral meristem inhibition. The critical question however is, does this reduced growth potential translate into realized fitness costs, i.e. does overcompensation result in increased fitness when apical dominance is disrupted? Below I address this question through several predictions associated with alternative hypotheses for the adaptive significance of apical dominance (Table 1).
A novel key-frame selection-based sign language recognition framework for the video data

ABSTRACT Sign language is a medium of communication for people with hearing disabilities. Static and dynamic gestures are identified in a video-based sign language recognition and translated them into humanly understandable phrases to achieve the communication objective. However, videos contain redundant Key-frames which require additional processing. Number of such Key-frames can be reduced. The selection of particular Key-frames without losing the required information is a challenging task. The Key-frame extraction algorithm is used which helps to speed-up the sign language recognition process by extracting essential key-frames. The proposed framework eliminates the computation overhead by picking up the distinct Key-frames for the recognition process. Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT), Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT), and Histograms of Oriented Gradient (HOG) are used for unique features extraction. We used the bagged tree, boosted tree ensemble method, Fine KNN, and SVM for classification. We tested methodology on video-based datasets of Pakistani Sign Language. It achieved an overall 97.5% accuracy on 37 Urdu alphabets and 95.6% accuracy on 100 common words.
Integrating E-Portfolio Strategy in the Architectural Design Studio

Abstract Architectural Design Studio (ADS) is the most important course in architectural education due to the integrative nature of the knowledge acquired by the students through the formative process. In this course, the inclusion of the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is generally not often considered to gather information on how the student is learning, losing the benefits of these strategies for the learning construction processes. This research seeks to contribute with effective pedagogical orientations to benefit the ADS with the use of the e-portfolio as an ICT strategy. The research approach is mixed and of explanatory type, with a follow-up of fourteen semesters of data sampling in an ADS. The results show relevant aspects to be considered in the e-portfolio implementation, such as the evidence type gathered, the relevant collaborative strategy, the time used and the reflection levels of the students in the training process.
Cyber risk analysis and attack verification of key equipment in power grid

The normal operation of key equipment in power grid (KEPG) is of great significance for safe and stable operation of power grid. Firstly, this paper gives a systematic overview of KEPG. Secondly, the cyber security risks of KEPG on the main-station / sub-station side, channel side and terminal side are analyzed and the related vulnerabilities are discovered. Thirdly, according to the risk analysis results, three major cyber attack scenarios for key equipment on each side of the grid are proposed, which provides the test process and attack ideas for the subsequent KEPGrelated attack penetration. Finally, the simulation environment of penetration test is built, and a series of attack tests are carried out on the terminal key equipment based on the cyber attack scenario proposed in this paper. The correctness of the risk analysis and the effectiveness of the attack process construction technology are verified. The cyber risk and attack scenarios analyzed in this paper are of great significance to enhance the cyber security defense capability of key equipment of power grid.
Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C among Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infected Patients at a District Hospital in Mwanza, Tanzania

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B virus (HBV) and Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infections have been a major public health problem. HIV patients with HBV and HCV infection are at high risk of liver diseases which is associated with increased mortality. This study aims at determining the prevalence of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), HCV antibodies and HBV antibodies (anti-HBsAg) among HIV seropositive adults attending care and treatment clinic at Sengerema district hospital in Mwanza, Tanzania. A cross-sectional hospital based study was conducted between February and March 2017 among 243 HIV adult patients at Sengerema designated district hospital, Mwanza, Tanzania. Socio-demographic and other relevant information were collected using pre-tested questionnaires. Detection of HBsAg and HCV antibodies was done by commercial rapid immunochromatographic test while the detection of anti-HBsAg was done using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. Data were analyzed by using STATA version 13. The median age of the study participants was 43, interquartile range (IQR): 37 - 51 years. The majority 172 (70.8) of study participants were female and the majority (88%) of participants had CD4 count of greater than 200 counts/μl. The prevalence of HBsAg, HCV antibodies and anti-HBsAg were 26/243 (10.7%, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 7 - 14), 20/243 (8.2%, 95% CI: 4.7 - 11.6) and (100/243) 41.2%, 95% CI: 35 - 47, respectively. Co-infection with HCV (OR: 4.45, 95% CI: 1.51 - 13.21, P = 0.007) was independenlty found to predict HbsAg positivity. History of blood transfusion (OR: 2.34, 95% CI: 1.08 - 5.06, P = 0.028) was significantly associated with anti-HBsAg among HIV infected individuals while, the rate of anti-HBsAg was found to decrease by 2.02 IU/L in a year increase in age. About one tenth of HIV infected individuals are co-infected with HCV and HBV with more than one third being positive for anti-HBsAg. There is a paramount need to emphasize the need for regular screening and proper management of these patients to reduce associated complications in resource limited countries where these infections are common.
New Insights into the Discovery of Novel Drugs to Treat Human Pulmonary Adenocarcinoma

Lung cancer is one of the most prevalent cancers in the world. A cisplatin-based chemotherapy regimen is commonly used to major patients who have adenocarcinoma. Because of the limited remission rate, many patients need receive second-line treatment after receiving first-line chemotherapy. Drug screenings carried out currently are mainly from single phase. In consideration of systemic treatment, evaluation of a novel drug candidate from the point of view of first-line and second-line treatment is supposed to be important in the process of drug screening. In this review, we propose a flow of searching for new drugs, which is tailored to accommodate to first-line and second-line treatment in clinic.
Feminist chatbots as part of the feminist toolbox

In late August 2017, the Brazilian non-profit laboratory for activism called Nossas Cidades (Our Cities) launched a feminist chatbot called Betânia, or Beta for short (See Figure 1). Beta is a text-based chatbot programmed for Facebook Messenger. It provided feminists in Brazil with a tool to organize against an amendment to the Brazilian constitution aimed at criminalising abortion (Proposta de Emenda à Constituição, PEC-181). Betânia benefited from the new automated personalised advertisement feature launched by Facebook a year earlier (David Marcus 2016). By design, Betânia provided a conversational function to incite its users to action and automated the process of sending emails to the members of parliament (MPs) responsible for voting on the bill (Caio Calado 2018). Antônia (pseudonym), one of Betânia’s developers who we interviewed on January 3 2020, said that “When Betânia was launched Brazilian women were so excited by the bot that its use literally exploded. ” Betânia sent more than 34,000 emails and thanks to a country-wide campaign using street and online actions, the bill was dropped (Calado 2018). Betânia is used in this case study as an object of inquiry into how algorithms as a design choice can be used to achieve the goals of feminist activists. Based on qualitative interviews with feminist chatbot developers, our own interactions with chatbots and a brief review of activist writings (Calado 2018; Sarah Ciston 2019; Tola Onanuga 2019), we argue for the need to go beyond feminist critiques of algorithms to rather focus on how organisations, collectives, and/or individuals employ algorithms for feminist ends. We take the stance of technoscience feminists such as Judy Wajcman 2004 and more recently Sasha Costanza-Chock 2020 who compel us to engage pro-actively in the development and design of technologies. One particular design choice the developers at Nossas Cidades had to make concerned the type of algorithm behind their chatbot: “It was the intention to apply a machine-learning algorithm, but because of budget and time we used a rule-based algorithm” Antônia said to us (personal communication, January 3 2020). What Antônia calls “rule-based” is a chatbot whose behaviour is based on a set of predetermined rules that tell it what to do in the course of its interactions. This contrasts with a “machine-leaning” chatbot—also called a dynamic chatbot—that can “learn” by itself through new data inputs in order to create its own behaviour. As Antônia mentioned, one reason to use a simpler rule-based chatbot is that it takes less resources and time to develop, making its production more accessible to small collectives. An additional reason for this design choice was that they considered it to be more immune to the influences of human actors, in contrast to
