Circadian Reinforcement Therapy in Combination With Electronic Self-Monitoring to Facilitate a Safe Postdischarge Period for Patients With Major Depression: Randomized Controlled Trial

Background: Patients with major depression exhibit circadian disturbance of sleep and mood, and when they are discharged from inpatient wards, this disturbance poses a risk of relapse. We developed a circadian reinforcement therapy (CRT) intervention to facilitate the transition from the inpatient ward to the home for these patients. CRT focuses on increasing the zeitgeber strength for the circadian clock through social contact, physical activity, diet, daylight exposure, and sleep timing. Objective: In this study, we aimed to prevent the worsening of depression after discharge by using CRT, supported by an electronic self-monitoring system, to advance and stabilize sleep and improve mood. The primary outcome, which was assessed by a blinded rater, was the change in the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale scores from baseline to the end point. Methods: Participants were
ANALYSIS OF WAKES INTERACTIONS IN A HIGH-SPEED LOW-PRESSURE TURBINE CASCADE USING LARGE-EDDY SIMULATIONS

Turbomachinery flows are highly turbulent and prone to different types of instabilities. In low-pressure turbines (LPT), the wakes from the upstream bladerows provide the dominant source of unsteadiness. For Reynolds numbers at which LPT are generally operating, the majority of the blade boundary layer remains laminar. As a matter of fact, the suction side boundary layer of such flow is responsible for most of the efficiency loss. It is thus crucial to master the impact of the incoming wake turbulence and its effect on the transition of this boundary layer to master the generated losses. Such a rotor/stator interaction in new generation of low-pressure turbines, with the particularity of being locally transonic, is addressed numerically in this work. The considered geometry consists in a linear blade cascade in front of which bars rotate, acting as wake generators that periodically impact the blades leading edges, thereby influencing the aerodynamics of the cascade. For this study, Large-Eddy Simulations (LES) are carried out and compared to experimental results acquired at the Von Karman Institute during the Cleansky project SPLEEN. This paper investigates the interactions between the periodically incoming wakes and the turbine cascade. The transition of the suction side boundary layer, the pressure side separation bubble and the wall shear stress on the blade surface are specifically analysed along with the temporal evolution of the sonic pocket
Highly pathogenic avian influenza A(H5N1) virus infection in foxes with PB2-M535I identified as a novel mammalian adaptation, Northern Ireland, July 2023

We report cases of mammalian infection with highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) virus A(H5N1) clade 2.3. 4.4b in Northern Ireland. Two common gulls (Larus canus) and two red fox kits (Vulpes vulpes), were found dead in close vicinity. Comparison of viral whole genome sequences obtained from the animals identified a novel mammalian adaptation, PB2-M535I. Analysis of genetic sequences from other recent mammalian infections shows that this mutation has arisen on at least five occasions in three European countries since April 2023.
Load Balanced Reliable Routing in Cluster based MANETs to Reduce Energy Consumption

Mobile Ad-hoc network is a “self configuring” network of mobile routers. A node doesn’t need an extensive knowledge of network parameters before joining the network. MANETs are free to move in any direction. They use wireless links to connect with other networks. MANETs are widely used in military field, disaster relief operations during tsunamis and earthquakes and Ad-hoc gaming in subways and cafes etc. As the technology improves, application of MANETs are also improving day by day, so maintaining the bandwidth efficiency plays a major role in improving the network performance. By minimizing the energy consumption, delay and properly distributing the workload during non uniform load distribution, we can improve the network performance. In this paper, Cooperative load balancing and dynamic channel allocation scheme has been used to overcome the issues of MANETs. In the Proposed system MATLAB is used as a tool to create optimal number of clusters based on Partitioning around Medoids (PAM) algorithm Keywords— Mobile Ad hoc networks (MANETs), Partitioning around Medoids (PAM), Dynamic Channel allocation, MH TRACE.
Feasibility Assessment of an Integrated Pyrolysis-Gasification Process Combined with a Solid Oxide Fuel Cell Towards Electricity and Crude Bio-oil Production

The core aim of this study is the process simulation and techno-economic assessment of an integrated process for the co-generation of electricity and crude fuels. The process is based on a renewable energy feedstock (olive kernel residues) and includes the consequent stages of: a) the slow pyrolysis of the olive kernel, b) the (autothermal) gasification of biochar (derived from the slow pyrolysis) to syngas and c) the direct utilisation of the gasification syngas in a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) system. Through the additional exploitation of the excess process heat in a two-stage Rankine cycle steam turbine, the integrated system is able to co-generate more than 13.3 GWh and more than 26.8 kt of bio-oil (crude bio-fuel), annually. The combined process was simulated by using Aspen Plus software and was based on the experimental results of a previous study. Regarding the subsequent feasibility assessment, the total fixed capital investment and the total annual operating expenses (annual production costs) were estimated at 35 M€ and 8.2 M€, respectively. Based on these values, it was found that the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) should range between 0.8 - 0.9 €/kWh in order for the process to be feasible in a 20 y period of operation. Based on a series of energy policies (e

— We study various trivializations of moment maps. First in the general framework of a complex reductive group G acting on a smooth affine variety. We prove that the moment map is a locally trivial fibration over a regular locus of the center of the Lie algebra of H a maximal compact subgroup of G . The construction relies on Kempf–Ness theory and Morse theory of the square norm of the moment map studied by Kirwan, Ness–Mumford and Sjamaar. Then we apply it together with ideas from Nakajima and Kronheimer to trivialize the hyperkähler moment map for Nakajima quiver varieties. Notice this trivialization result about quiver varieties was known and used by experts such as Nakajima and Maffei but we could not locate a proof in the literature.
AstroSer: Leveraging Deep Learning for Efficient Content-based Retrieval in Massive Solar-observation Images

Rapid and proficient data retrieval is an essential component of modern astronomical research. In this paper, we address the challenge of retrieving astronomical image content by leveraging state-of-the-art deep learning techniques. We have designed a retrieval model, HybridVR, that integrates the capabilities of the deep learning models ResNet50 and VGG16 and have used it to extract key features of solar activity and solar environmental characteristics from observed images. This model enables efficient image matching and allows for content-based image retrieval (CBIR). Experimental results demonstrate that the model can achieve up to 98% similarity during CBIR while exhibiting adaptability and scalability. Our work has implications for astronomical research, data management, and education, and it can contribute to optimizing the utilization of astronomical image data. It also serves as a useful example of the application of deep learning technology in the field of astronomy.
Physical Properties of 5000 Cool Large Magellanic Cloud Supergiants with Gaia XP Spectra: A Detailed Portrait of the Upper H-R Diagram Hints at Missing Supernova Progenitors

Characterizing the physical properties of cool supergiants allows us to probe the final stages of a massive star’s evolution before it undergoes core collapse. Despite their importance, the fundamental properties of these stars— logTeff and logL/L⊙ —are only known for a limited number of objects. The third data release of the Gaia mission contains precise photometry and low-resolution spectroscopy of hundreds of cool supergiants in the LMC with well-constrained properties. Using these data, we train a simple and easily interpretable machine-learning model to regress effective temperatures and luminosities with high accuracy and precision comparable to the training data. We then apply our model to 5000 cool supergiants, many of which have no previously published T eff or L estimates. The resulting Hertzprung–Russell diagram is well populated, allowing us to study the distribution of cool supergiants in great detail. Examining the luminosity functions of our sample, we find a notable flattening in the luminosity function of yellow supergiants above logL/L⊙=5 , and a corresponding steepening of the red supergiant luminosity function. We place this finding in context with previous results and present its implications for the infamous red supergiant problem.
Association between Efavirenz as Initial Therapy for HIV-1 Infection and Increased Risk of Suicidal Ideation, Attempted, or Completed Suicide

Background—The relationship between efavirenz use and suicidality is not well defined. Objective—Compare time to suicidality with efavirenz-containing versus efavirenz-free antiretroviral regimens for initial treatment of HIV. Design—Participant-level data were analyzed from four AIDS Clinical Trials Group (ACTG) antiretroviral-naïve studies conducted from 2001 to 2010. Within each study, participants were randomly assigned to an efavirenz-containing (n=3241) or efavirenz-free regimen (n=2091). Setting—ACTG sites; 74% enrolled in the United States. Patients—Antiretroviral-naïve participants. Intervention—Efavirenz versus efavirenz-free regimens. Measurements—Suicidality was defined as suicidal ideation, attempted or completed suicide. Groups were compared with a hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) estimated from a Cox model stratified by study. Results—73% were men, median age was 37 years; 32% had documented psychiatric history or received psychoactive medication within 30 days prior to study entry. Median follow-up was 96 weeks. Suicidality incidence per 1000 person-years was 8.08 (47 events) in the efavirenz group and 3.66 (15 events) in the efavirenz-free group, HR: 2.28 (95% CI: 1.27 to 4.10, p=0.006). Incidence of attempted or completed suicide was 2.90 (17 events) and 1.22 (5 events) in the efavirenz and efavirenz-free groups, respectively, HR: 2.58 (95% CI: 0.94 to 7.06, p=0.065). Eight suicide deaths in the efavirenz group and one in the efavirenz-free group were reported. Limitations—There was not a standardized questionnaire regarding suicidal ideation or attempt. Efavirenz was open-label in three of four studies. Conclusions—Initial treatment with an efavirenz-containing antiretroviral regimen was associated with a two-fold increased hazard of suicidality compared to a regimen without efavirenz.
GEMINI: Controlling the Sentence-level Writing Style for Abstractive Text Summarization

Human experts write summaries using different techniques, including rewriting a sentence in the document or fusing multiple sentences to generate a summary sentence. These techniques are ﬂexible and thus difﬁ-cult to be imitated by any single method. To address this issue, we propose an adaptive model, GEMINI, that integrates a rewriter and a fuser to mimic the sentence rewriting and fusion techniques, respectively. GEM-INI adaptively chooses to rewrite a spe-ciﬁc document sentence or generate a sum-mary sentence from scratch. Experiments demonstrate that our adaptive approach out-performs the pure abstractive and rewriting baselines on various benchmark datasets, especially when the dataset has a balanced distribution of styles. Interestingly, empirical results show that the human writing style of each summary sentence is consistently predictable given its context.

Blue crab Callinectes sapidus embryos from the Mississippi Sound were sampled in spring and in late summer to determine patterns of biochemical composition and of yolk utilization during embryogenesis and to ascertain potential seasonal differences in biochemical composition. The diameter of spring embryos was ; 6% greater than summer embryos but this signiﬁcant size difference was due to increased water content, not to increased organic content. The general trend in initial biochemical composition was similar in both seasons; protein was the primary component at ; 50% of initial dry weight followed by lipid ( ; 30%), ash ( ; 8%) and carbohydrate (6%). The general trend for utilization of organic reserves during embryogenesis was also similar seasonally. Lipid was the primary component metabolized during embryogenesis (44–48% of initial stores were utilized) followed by protein (13–16% utilized) and carbohydrate ( ; 13% utilized). Calculated on a dry weight basis, spring embryos had signiﬁcantly lower lipid but signiﬁcantly higher ash than summer embryos; there were no signiﬁcant seasonal differences in protein or carbohydrate. Caloric expenditure on a dry weight basis was signiﬁcantly different seasonally. There appear to be geographic differences among blue crabs; our results differ from those of a previous study of blue crab embryos from North Carolina waters.

Nurse Coaching and Mobile Health Compared With Usual Care to Improve Diabetes Self-Efficacy for Persons With Type 2 Diabetes: Randomized Controlled Trial

Background Type 2 diabetes is a growing public health problem amenable to prevention and health promotion. As healthy behaviors have an impact on disease outcomes, approaches to support and sustain diabetes self-management are vital. Objective This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a nurse coaching program using motivational interviewing paired with mobile health (mHealth) technology on diabetes self-efficacy and self-management for persons with type 2 diabetes. Methods This randomized controlled trial compared usual care with an intervention that entailed nurse health coaching and mHealth technology to track patient-generated health data and integrate these data into an electronic health record. The inclusion criteria were as follows: (1) enrolled at 1 of 3 primary care clinics, (2) aged 18 years or above, (3) living with type 2 diabetes, and (4) English-speaking. We collected outcome measures at baseline, 3 months, and 9 months. The primary outcome was diabetes self-efficacy; secondary outcomes were depressive symptoms, perceived stress, physical functioning, and emotional distress and anxiety. Linear regression mixed modeling estimated the population trends and individual differences in change. Results We enrolled 319 participants; 287 participants completed the study (155 control and 132 intervention). The participants in the intervention group had significant improvements in diabetes self-efficacy (Diabetes Empowerment Scale, 0.34; 95% CI –0.15,0.53; P<.01) and a decrease in depressive symptoms compared with usual care at 3 months (Patient Health Questionnaire-9; 0.89; 95% CI 0.01-1.77; P=.05), with no differences in the other outcomes. The differences in self-efficacy and depression scores between the 2 arms at 9 months were not sustained. The participants in the intervention group demonstrated a significant increase in physical activity (from 23,770 steps per week to 39,167 steps per week at 3 months and 32,601 per week at 9 months). Conclusions We demonstrated the short-term effectiveness of this intervention; however, by 9 months, although physical activity remained above the baseline, the improvements in self-efficacy were not sustained. Further research should evaluate the minimum dose of coaching required to continue progress after active intervention and the potential of technology to provide effective ongoing automated reinforcement for behavior change.

An Internet-Based Physical Activity Intervention to Improve Quality of Life of Inactive Older Adults: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Background Increasing physical activity is a viable strategy for improving both the health and quality of life of older adults. Objective The aim of this study was to assess if an Internet-based intervention aimed to increase physical activity was effective in improving quality of life of inactive older adults. In addition, we analyzed the effect of the intervention on quality of life among those participants who successfully reached their individually targeted increase in daily physical activity as indicated by the intervention program, as well as the dose-response effect of increasing physical activity on quality of life. Methods The intervention was tested in a randomized controlled trial and was comprised of an Internet program—DirectLife (Philips)—aimed at increasing physical activity using monitoring and feedback by accelerometry and feedback by digital coaching (n=119). The control group received no intervention (n=116). Participants were inactive 60-70-year-olds and were recruited from the general population. Quality of life and physical activity were measured at baseline and after 3 months using the Research ANd Development 36-item health survey (RAND-36) and wrist-worn triaxial accelerometer, respectively. Results After 3 months, a significant improvement in quality of life was seen in the intervention group compared to the control group for RAND-36 subscales on emotional and mental health (2.52 vs -0.72, respectively; P=.03) and health change (8.99 vs 2.03, respectively; P=.01). A total of 50 of the 119 participants (42.0%) in the intervention group successfully reached their physical activity target and showed a significant improvement in quality of life compared to the control group for subscales on emotional and mental health (4.31 vs -0.72, respectively; P=.009) and health change (11.06 vs 2.03, respectively; P=.004). The dose-response analysis showed that there was a significant association between increase in minutes spent in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) and increase in quality of life. Conclusions Our study shows that an Internet-based physical activity program was effective in improving quality of life in 60-70-year-olds after 3 months, particularly in participants that reached their individually targeted increase in daily physical activity.

ACTOR A NALYSIS OF V ARIANCE ON T HE E FFECT OF B LADE ' S N UMBER ON R OTOR D RAG -T YPE P ERFORMANCE

Graphical abstract Abstract The State Electricity Company supports 59% of the national electricity supply in Indonesia. The electricity supply from hydro energy is only 8.17%, so this value must be increased to reduce the supply of power plants sourced from fossil fuels. A water turbine is one of the main components in converting hydropower to electrical energy. A cross-flow type water turbine is one of the popular rotors in research in recent years. Several methods are used in turbine development research, including computational fluid dynamics and experimental methods. This research has been done using two methods: the experimental and CFD methods. The study was conducted on variations in the number of blades on the rotor, with variations in blades 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12. This study aims to determine the effect of the number of blades on turbine performance. This study was carried out for five repetitions for each rotor. CFD analysis was performed using the Ansys Student version with the CFX solver. The meshing method is tetrahedral, with a speed limit of 4.91 m/s and outlet pressure according to room pressure. This study uses CFD to know the pressure contours and velocity streamlines. The results of this study were analyzed using a single-factor DOE. The most optimal number of blades is 3-blades producing 9.38 Watt of power, and the Coefficient of power is 0.0748. Analysis of Variance for the Single-Factor shows that the number of blades significantly affects the energy produced. Cross-flow rotor design with 3-blades is a good design alternative for hydro turbines.
Platelet-Rich Plasma for the Treatment of Plaque Psoriasis: A Systematic Review

Psoriasis is a chronic and recurring condition characterized by scaly red plaques. The most common variant, plaque-type psoriasis, presents distinct clinical features. It profoundly impacts psychological and mental well-being, resulting in depression, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts. Psoriasis occurs due to disruptions in the skin’s innate and adaptive immune response triggered by trauma, infection, or medications. Treatment options include topical therapies such as corticosteroids and vitamin D analogs, phototherapy, conventional systemic agents such as methotrexate (MTX), and biologics that target pro-inflammatory cytokines. There has been growing interest in platelet-rich plasma (PRP) as a potential treatment option for plaque psoriasis, given its lower toxicity compared to existing approaches. However, its use is not yet widespread in clinical practice due to the limited awareness of its effectiveness. This review aims to investigate the efficacy of PRP therapy for plaque psoriasis. To conduct a comprehensive analysis, we followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, thoroughly searching PubMed, Elton Bryson Stephens Company (EBSCO), and ClinicalTrials.gov between February and July 2023. Our focus was on patients diagnosed with plaque psoriasis, and we found multiple studies that demonstrated promising results of PRP either as monotherapy or in combination with current treatments such as MTX. The clinical evidence strongly supports the effectiveness of PRP in treating plaque psoriasis. PRP significantly improves dermatological symptoms and enhances patient and physician satisfaction. Research suggests that PRP reduces the expression of interleukin (IL) 17, a pro-inflammatory mediator, explaining its mechanism of action in treating plaque psoriasis. However, additional clinical trials with larger sample sizes, including PRP as a separate treatment group and comparisons with positive and control groups, are necessary to reinforce its efficacy in plaque psoriasis patients and elucidate other potential mechanisms underlying its beneficial effects.
