On simulation of the photon wave function to explain the Young’s experiment and prospects for its use in quantum cryptography

The method developed in previous works for building the photon wave function in configuration representation is briefly described. The simulation of such function (wave packet) appropriate to femtosecond laser radiation, using the distribution of Gauss of photon momenta in the state of a single laser impulse is expounded. By other appropriate simulated wave function of photon the light interference in Young’s experiment is explained within the frame of quantum mechanics without the attraction of transition probability amplitudes used in approach of quantum electrodynamics. This allows us considering interference phenomena for photons and particles from the same basis of the quantum-mechanical principle of superposition employed to the wave function built in the configuration space. Using the building apparatus of photon quantum mechanics, the Malus law postulated in quantum theory is justified. The relevance of new experiments to study the interaction of quantum objects between themselves and the physical vacuum, which would reveal the origins of the mathematical description of quantum states using the wave function of these quantum objects, is substantiated. It is suggested that the ideas of constructing the wave function of a free photon in the coordinate representation can find relevance in the field of quantum cryptography.
Relationship of occupational health and safety training with health literacy among employees working in the various lines of business

Background Health literacy is vital for people’s ability to manage health. It has been known for a long time that the importance of education in increasing health literacy is an undeniable fact. The first aim of this study was to investigate the health literacy levels of employees working in different business lines receiving service from the occupational health and safety unit. The second aim was to reveal how health literacy levels are affected according to the training duration. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted on 202 employees receiving service from the Karabuk occupational health and safety unit. The employees were divided into three groups as workers, officers and others. All employees were given the questionnaire consisting of 31 questions including sociodemographic characteristics and the adult health literacy scale. A face-to-face interview was performed with each of the employees. Kruskal-Wallis H and Mann-Whitney U tests were used to analyze the data. Results The range of adult health literacy scale scores of the employees was 4-23. There was no significant difference in adult health literacy scale scores between age groups (p=0.38). The percentage of employees who received more than 16 hours training course was 19.3%, 20.6%, and 46.7% for workers, civil servants and other employees, respectively. Adult health literacy scale scores increased in proportion to the amount of training the employees received (p=0.001). Conclusion This study reveals that occupational health training has a positive effect on health literacy.
Growth Analysis of Lactobacillus acidophilus Using Different Non-Digestible Carbohydrates

Probiotics are live microorganisms and offer health benefits to the digestive system and used in the production of many fermented foods. Non-digestible carbohydrates are dietary fibers which cannot be digested and absorbed by the small intestine. Strains of Lactobacillus , are among the most common and popular group of probiotics and added to many dairy products and dietary supplements. Besides, Lactobacillus acidophilus can exhibit many useful benefits such as showing thermostability, maintaining the growth activity at a wide pH range, and offering strong inhibition actions against spoilage of food and pathogenic bacteria. Aims of this study are to analyse the ability of non-digestible carbohydrates to act as a carbon source in enhancing the growth activity of L. acidophilus in vitro and to determine which type of non-digestible carbohydrate sources contributed a high biomass production. L. acidophilus was grown on de Man, Rogosa and Sharpe (MRS) medium. The optical density and pH of the cell biomass produced were measured and cell dry weight was determined. The highest biomass production recorded was for barley 10.02 g. L -1 followed by yam 8.79 g. L -1 , 7.17 g. L -1 for garlic, 6.81 g. L -1 for banana and 4.86 g. L -1 for sweet potato, while positive control (glucose) recorded 4.20 g. L -1 of cell biomass. The results also showed a decreasing in the pH values which indicated the formation of lactic acids in the medium after 24 h of incubation at 37°C on rotary shaker set at 200 rpm. The overall results, confirmed that L. acidophilus helps in the hydrolysis of non-digestible carbohydrates and subsequent conversion of the sugars to cell biomass and decrease the pH compared to the negative control (without carbon source). This shows that in future, production of a synbiotic products using these non-digestible carbohydrates and probiotics strains is promising to offer many benefits to human’s health.

Research on feature extraction of veneer defects based on improved SURF algorithm

In this paper, when the feature extraction algorithm extracts the veneer defect features, due to the veneer rotation and a large number of surface textures, the problem of poor feature matching and long time consumption occurs, and an improved SURF algorithm is proposed. The feature matching experiments of the three types of defects such as knots, dead knots, and holes in the veneer were carried out. The experiments verified that the algorithm had good rotation invariance and high efficiency when extracting veneer defect features.
Efficacy and safety of keishibukuryogan, a traditional Japanese Kampo medicine, for hot flashes in prostate cancer patients receiving androgen deprivation therapy

Background The efficacy and safety of keishibukuryogan, a traditional Japanese medicine, were investigated for the treatment of hot flashes in prostate cancer (PC) patients receiving androgen deprivation therapy. Methods Thirty patients were enrolled and orally administered 2.5 g keishibukuryogan three times daily for 12 weeks. The frequency, strength, and duration of hot flashes were self-evaluated by the patients in a diary every 4 weeks. All patients also completed a questionnaire to determine their aging male symptoms (AMS) scale score and underwent blood biochemical testing. Results Twenty-five patients completed the 12-week treatment. Hot flash strength significantly improved 4, 8, and 12 weeks after treatment. Their frequency was significantly reduced at the 8-week visit, and duration was significantly shorter after the 8-week visit. In addition, the score of the AMS somatic subscale was improved at the 8- and 12-week visits. Among the somatic items, questions 3 (excessive sweating) and 5 (increased need for sleep) were significantly improved. Obesity, radiation, and a longer duration of PC were predictive factors for treatment response. Prostate specific antigen and total testosterone levels were unchanged, and no patients had severe adverse effects. Conclusions Keishibukuryogan was an effective and safe treatment for hot flashes in PC patients.
Mechanisms of nonadiabatic transitions in photoisomerization processes of conjugated molecules: Role of hydrogen migrations

Mechanism of nonadiabatic transition in the C=C torsional photoisomerization process of ethylene and polyenes is investigated by using the ab initio configuration interaction calculation method. We have calculated the low‐lying singlet state potential energy surfaces and their nonadiabatic couplings. A multidimensional search for the molecular configurations yielding strong nonadiabatic couplings is performed to find the origin of very fast photoisomerization kinetics, which are experimentally observed to be typically in the order of a few or a few tens of picoseconds. It is found that the ‘‘pseudo’’ migration motion of a hydrogen adjacent to the twisted C=C bond causes a potential surface crossing of the low‐lying excited and ground states and thus induces a sufficiently large nonadiabatic coupling to explain this experimental evidence. The hydrogen migration motion is facilitated by the so‐called zwitterionic character of the low‐lying excited states near the 90° C=C twisted conformation, proceeds almos.
Clinical leadership development workshop for licenced practical nurses in supportive living in Alberta: An exploratory qualitative study

Objective: Since 2013, the scope of practice of LPNs in Alberta, Canada has expanded to include leadership in SL that requires that the development of new CL skills be prioritized. To date, few SL work-based educational programs have been devoted to developing CL skills for LPNs. The objective of this study is the assessment of the impact of a brief patient group education intervention (Conversation Maps TM ) in people with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Methods: An exploratory qualitative design was used, incorporating multiple data collection methods, including individual and focus group interviews, and a demographic questionnaire. Interview data were analyzed using thematic description. Results and conclusions: Findings suggest that the CLD workshop was effective and feasible in SL practice settings. Data showed that improvement in LPN autonomy and control over decision-making resulted from gaining confidence and feeling empowered, which led to positive change in participants’ CL attitudes. Including other team members, health care aides (HCAs), and management in the CLD workshops also improved team relationships for all.
Single nucleotide polymorphism at cluster of differentiation 14 (CD14) gene and its association with fertility traits in crossbred cattle of Kerala

Cluster of differentiation 14 (CD14) gene is an important molecule for innate unity and found to be significantly associated with fertility traits in cattle. The objectives of present study were to detect the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in exon 1 region of CD14 gene and to evaluate the association of genetic variants with fertility traits viz. Service period and Age at First Calving in crossbred cattle of Kerala. The study was conducted on two hundred and sixteen crossbred cattle maintained at various farms of Kerala Veterinary and Animal Sciences University. Genomic DNA was isolated and polymorphisms of gene were detected by Single Strand Confirmation Polymorphism. Two SNPs, c.445T>G and c.432C>T were detected in exon 1 coding region of CD14 gene. The frequencies of CC and CT genotypes were 0.82 and 0.18 in the population. In addition, a significant association between SNPs and service period was observed in crossbred cattle population under study. Crossbred cattle with CT diplo types showed lower values for service period than those with CC diplo types. The association of CD14 gene with these traits emphasizes the importance of bovine CD14 as a candidate gene for marker assisted selection for fertility traits in crossbred cattle
Soil respiration: implications of the plant‐soil continuum and respiration chamber collar‐insertion depth on measurement and modelling of soil CO2 efflux rates in three ecosystems

Key uncertainties remain in accurately measuring soil respiration, including how the commonly‐used technique of collar insertion affects measured soil and root‐derived CO2 fluxes. We hypothesized that total soil respiration is frequently under‐estimated because soil collar insertions sever surface roots, which coupled with the preferential practice of taking daytime measurements, leads to the autotrophic (root‐derived) component frequently being missed. We measured root distribution and soil CO2 efflux in three contrasting ecosystems: a Lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta) plantation, an upland heather‐dominated peatland and a lowland sheep‐grazed grassland, where we combined shallow surface collars with collars at different soil insertion depths for occasional and continuous hourly flux measurements. Collar insertion by only a few centimetres reduced total soil CO2 efflux in all three ecosystems by an average of 15% but at times by up to 30–50%, and was directly proportional to the quantity of cut fine roots. Most reduction occurred in the shallow‐rooted peatland system and least in the deep‐rooted grassland. In the forest and grassland, soil temperatures explained most of the deep‐collar (largely heterotrophic) variation and did not relate to the root‐derived (largely autotrophic) flux component, whilst the opposite was true for the peatland site. For the forest, the autotrophic flux component peaked at night during moist periods and was drought‐limited. Mean flux estimates differed between sampling time and insertion depth. Our results suggest strongly that accurate measurement and modelling of soil respiration needs explicitly to consider collar insertion, and the root‐derived flux component, with its own temperature sensitivity and potential time‐lag effects.
Spin orbit and tetragonal crystalline field interaction in the valence band of CuInSe2‐related ordered vacancy compound CuIn7Se12

Thin films of the off‐tie‐line ordered vacancy compound CuIn7Se12 were deposited on optically flat glass substrates by multi‐source co‐evaporation method. The preliminary structural, compositional and morphological characterizations were done using X‐ray diffraction, energy dispersive X‐ray analysis and atomic force microscopy. The X‐ray diffraction data were further analysed applying the Nelson–Riley method and CTB plus η = η experiment rule, respectively, for lattice constants (a = 5.746 Å and c = 11.78 Å) and bond length estimations (RCu–Se = 2.465 Å and RIn–Se = 2.554 Å). A detailed analysis of the optical absorption spectra of the compound, which exhibited a three‐fold optical absorption structure in the fundamental gap region, yielded three characteristic direct energy gaps at 1.37, 1.48(7) and 1.72(8) eV indicative of valence band splitting, which were evaluated using Hopfield's quasi‐cubic model. The 0.04 eV increase in spin–orbit splitting parameter of the compound (0.27 eV) compared to that of CuInSe2 (0.23 eV) is found to be suggestive of the smaller contribution of Cu d orbitals to hybridization (determined by the linear hybridization model) in this Cu‐deficient compound. Spectral response spectra exhibit, in addition to a maximum around 1.34 ± 0.03 eV, two other defect transition peaks near 1.07 and 0.85 eV. The binding energies of Cu, In and Se in the compound were determined using X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy. (© 2005 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
Impact of ‘Organic' Pollutants on Coastal Waters, Gulf of Trieste

The main sources of potential ‘organic' pollutants (essentially pathogens, nutrients, floatables, suspended solids and detergents) discharged to the Gulf of Trieste by sewers and rivers are briefly reviewed; about 470,000 people live in the coastal area, and nearly 400,000 of them discharge sewage effluents to the Gulf. This brief review is followed by an evaluation of the impact of such discharges on the quality of marine waters, with reference to the impairment of uses such as bathing and shellfish cultivation. The sanitary and aesthetic aspects of faecal pollution which typically affect coastal waters are examined together with the water quality standards pertaining to bathing waters and shellfish cultivation areas; the extent of pollution of the coastal waters is determined. Experience gained at some wastewater treatment and disposal works is cited. On the whole, the Gulf of Trieste appears to be in a satisfactory condition: more than 85% of the shoreline (totalling 42 km in Yugoslavia and 93 km in Italy) is unpolluted, according to the pertaining standards. Ameliorations are, however, urgently needed in many respects. Recommendations regarding adequate forms of sewage treatment and disposal are made.
Promotion Media Literation MSMEs Housewives Babadan Banguntapan, Kab Bantul, In Yogyakarta

During the Covid-19 pandemic, many entrepreneurs went out of business; many employees had to be laid off. With the existence of the Covid-19 pandemic, everything is limited. Economic activities are increasingly uncertain. However, this is an opportunity for housewives at RW17 Babadan, Banguntapan, Bantul Regency to help the family economy. One of them is the culinary business. The first problem is that these housewives experience difficulties selling due to their limited movement to offer their culinary works to consumers. Second, the understanding of media literacy in using social media as a new media is still lacking. Third, the understanding and ability to make messages are minimal through social media. Community service methods are discussion, focused group discussion, socialization, and media literacy training. The solution to this problem is to hold training and mentoring on understanding media literacy in carrying out sales promotion activities. Also, by holding skills training in documenting culinary products and in packaging messages through social media. The conclusion is that community empowerment by providing promotional media literacy makes them understand the benefits of using modern communication tools and new media. In the end, they were able to take advantage of smartphones to sell their products.
Switching Sequence Model Predictive Direct Torque Control of IPMSMs for EVs in Switch Open-Circuit Fault-Tolerant Mode

A switching sequence model predictive direct torque control (MPDTC) of IPMSMs for EVs in switch open-circuit fault-tolerant mode is studied in this paper. Instead of selecting one space vector from the possible four space vectors, the proposed MPDTC method selects an optimized switching sequence from two well-designed switching sequences, including three space vectors, according to a new designed cost function of which the control objectives have been transferred to the dq-axes components of the stator flux-linkage under the maximum-torque-per-ampere control. The calculation method of the durations of the adopted space vectors in the optimized switching sequence is studied to realize the stator flux-linkage reference tracking. In addition, the capacitor voltage balance method, by injecting a dc offset to the current of fault phase, is given. Compared with the conventional MPDTC method, the complicated weighting factors designing process is avoided and the electromagnetic torque ripples can be greatly suppressed. The experimental results prove the effectiveness and advantages of the proposed scheme.

Also, there are differential changes in leukocytes, namely an increased in the number of monocytes (5±1) and neutrophils (24±3), but lymphocytes have decreased in number (72±1). The Histopathology of the fish liver also can found in this research, those damages that are found are erythrocyte infiltration, necrosis picnosis, and karyolysis. Histopathology of fish kidney also can found cloudy sweling, necrosis karyolysis and tubular necrosis.
Secretion Of PGC-1α By Modulating Physical Exercise To Protect Improving Obesity Prevalence

Physical exercise can modulate the secretion of peroxisome proliferation activated receptor γ coactivator-1α (PGC-1α) as a prevention strategy to increase the prevalence of obesity. This study aims to analyze the response of physical exercise as a modulation of PGC-1α to protect against the increasing prevalence of obesity. This research is a true experimental design with the randomized pretest-posttest control group design using 15 obese women aged 18-22 years, Body Mass Index (BMI) 25-35 kg/m, normal blood pressure, Resting Heart Rate (RHR) normal, VO2max 25-35 ml/kg/min and randomly divided into three groups, namely CONT (n=5, Control Without Intervention), MIIE (n=5, Moderate Intensity Interval Exercise) and MICE (n=5, Moderate Intensity Continuous Exercise). The intervention was carried out at 07.00-09.00 a.m. MIIE and MICE interventions carried out for 40-45 minutes using a treadmill. Pre-exercise blood sampling and 10 minutes postexercise. Measurement of PGC-1α levels used the Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) method. Data analysis techniques used ANOVA test and LSD post hoc test with the Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS). The results obtained mean PGC-1α preexercise levels at CONT (1.733±1.651) ng/mL, MIIE (2.465±1.334) ng/mL and MICE (2.198±0.853) ng/mL (p=0.706). The mean PGC-1α post-exercise levels in CONT (2.107±1.603) ng/mL, MIIE (2.753±1.093) ng/mL and MICE (2.566±0.843) ng/mL (p=0.717). Based on the results of the study it is concluded that there are no significant differences in the mean levels of PGC-1α pre-exercise and post-exercise in all groups (P>0.05). It is recommended to do further research by providing moderate intensity treadmill exercise intervention which is carried out chronically to increase PGC-1α levels.
