Realization of a Complementary Full Adder Based on Reconfigurable Transistors

Fine grain reconfigurability carried out at the transistor level, i.e. the ability to switch between n- and p-type operation, offers new possibilities for highly efficient logic gates. In particular, XOR- and Majority gate circuit implementations can considerably benefit from reconfigurable transistors, as they require less than half of the transistor count needed in conventional static CMOS technology. Using a total of eight highly on-state symmetric reconfigurable field effect transistors fabricated from monolithic Al-Si heterostructures, we experimentally demonstrate a fully functional full adder, a fundamental circuit for many arithmetic applications. The two slightly adapted reconfigurable XOR gates for sum and carry output provide a full output voltage swing using only a single symmetric supply rail, while achieving very low static power consumption due to complementary circuit design and inherent leakage suppression of the devices. Furthermore, their stable operation against input voltage variations is demonstrated with static and transient measurements.
Transcriptional Profiling Reveals Key Regulatory Roles of the WUSCHEL-Related Homeobox Gene Family in Yellowhorn (Xanthoceras sorbifolia Bunge)

The WUSCHEL-related homeobox (WOX) gene family plays a crucial role in regulating embryonic development, organ formation, and stress resistance. Yellowhorn (Xanthoceras sorbifolia Bunge), a drought-resistant tree known for its oil production, lacks sufficient information regarding the WOX gene family. To understand the evolutionary mechanisms and potential functions of this gene family in yellowhorn, we conducted a comprehensive investigation on its expression patterns and evolutionary characteristics. Our analysis revealed the presence of nine XsWOX genes in the yellowhorn genome, which could be categorized into three distinct clades through a phylogenetic analysis. A chromosomal localization analysis indicated that these nine XsWOX genes were situated on six out of the fifteen chromosomes. An intra-species collinear analysis revealed only one pair of tandem duplicated genes within the XsWOX family. The promoter regions of the XsWOX family were found to contain responsive cis-acting elements associated with plant growth and development, stress responses, and hormone signaling. Moreover, an analysis of the gene expression profiles in different developmental stages of callus revealed significant expressions of XsWOX1, XsWOX4, and XsWOX5 in embryogenic callus and somatic embryo formation, suggesting that they have special roles in regulating yellowhorn’s somatic embryogenesis. Furthermore, the expression level of XsWOX5 indicated its potential involvement not only in organ formation but also in responding to low temperature, salt, and saline-alkali stresses. Overall, our findings lay a solid foundation for future in-depth studies on the functionality and evolution of XsWOX genes in yellowhorn.

Mercury toxicity potential from artisanal and small scale gold mines in Lebong Regency, Bengkulu Province

Artisanal and small scale gold mining (ASGM) is considered as the largest source of mercury pollution worldwide. The ASGM has been practiced for years in the area of Lebong Regency of Bengkulu Province. To extract gold from the ores, miners use a simple technique called Gelondong. This practice involves amalgamation process which forms amalgam, a mixure composed of mercury and gold. These amalgamation generates liquid and solid wastes (tailings) which still contain significant amount of mercury. Consequently, ASGM activities can potentially create mercury contamination of the environment, especially aquatic ecosystems. This study was aimed to investigate the concentration and distribution of total mercury in rivers to which wastes from ASGM communities in three villages of North Lebong District were dumped. Water and streambed sediments along the rivers were collected and brought to the laboratory for total mercury analysis. Data showed that total mercury was not detected in the river water but high in the river sediments with high variations among lactions from 0.11 to 110.37 mg kg -1 . Apparently, total mercury tended to decrease with the distance from it source. High amounts of mercury in the river sediments could potentially spread to wider area and cause bioaccumulation in aquatic organisms, especially fish which can be dangerous to consume.
Genetic Variability of NS5B Region of Hepatitis C Virus Patients in Egypt

Hepatitis virus C (HCV) is a serious public health issue worldwide. HCV is a cause of liver fibrosis, which may progress to cirrhosis or hepatocellular cancer. To assess the current study goal, we evaluated parameters including liver function, tumor marker, hematological, renal functions, lipid profile, and blood sugar levels in two groups (healthy controls and hepatitis C virus patients) to evaluate the current research’s aim. Based on the results of seven clinical tests, we observed insignificant changes in Cr, TSH, Alb, GCT, Alk.PH, Bill-total, Bill-direct, WBC, AFB, Cholesterol, and TG between the control and patient groups, there were significant differences for AST, ALT, Hb, platelets, INR, PT, PC percent, LDL, and FBS. The Hepatitis C virus profoundly affects blood parameters and body physiology in HCV patients. In the present study, 15 patients were sampled, and their HCV NS5B regions were directly sequenced and analyzed phylogenetically to learn more about HCV molecular epidemiology. According to the molecular epidemiology study, those who were treated with Sofosbuvir were found to have a high occurrence of certain genotypes.
Design of passive voltage balancer system for lead acid battery

The use of rechargeable batteries for electrical energy storage requires a voltage balancing system. The voltage balancing system requires monitoring in the use of rechargeable batteries so that they can be utilized properly and can improve the electrical energy storage system. In this research, a monitored lead acid battery voltage balancing system was designed so that the management of the battery voltage balance level and the storage of electrical energy in rechargeable batteries can be stored and used optimally. In this research a series of lead acid battery voltage detection and power dissipation circuits were designed. The power dissipation circuit uses the controlled shunt resistor method which is used when the voltage of the lead acid battery being charged exceeds the maximum voltage. This method is easy to implement and can display the value of the lead acid battery voltage and other parameters, so that it can be monitored by the user. The results obtained show that the average voltage error for batteries 1 and 2 is 0.09% and 0.3% respectively. The power dissipation circuit can dissipate lead acid battery power above the reference voltage VREF=±7 V, with a balanced voltage of 6.8 V at 140 minutes and 160 minutes.
Ecophysiological bases for the distribution of rainforest and eucalypt forest in Southeastern Australia

In mountainous terrain in southeastern Australia, rainforest vegetation is associated with gully bottoms and south facing (sheltered) aspects , whereas eucalypt forest occurs on nonh facing (exposed) aspects and ridge tops. The principal environmental factors which vary in association with rainforest and eucalypt forest distribution are light and soil moisture. Exposed aspects and ridge tops may receive higher irradiance and may have lower soil moisture content than sheltered aspects. Consequently, interactions between plant growth and water use with variation in irradiance and soil moisture may be an imponant determinant of vegetation distribution. The aim of this thesis is to understand how plant responses to variation in microenvironment are related to the differential distribution of vegetation types with aspect. In two glasshouse experiments, seedling growth, biomass· partitioning and water use characteristics were studied under different light and water treatments in representative canopy species from. rainforest and eucalypt forest. Growth responded primarily to light treatments and was greatest in eucalypt species at light levels greater than 20% sunlight (approximately 430 μmol photons m-2 s-1 ). However, biomass was greatest in rainforest species at light levels below 20% sunlight. Leaf area ratio increased and specific leaf weight decreased in eucalypts at less than 28% sunlight, but did not vary significantly between light treatments in rainforest species. When soil moisture was abundant, transpiration rates per unit leaf area were not different between rainforest and eucalypt forest species. An increase in leaf area at high irradiance in all species was associated with a porportional increase in root mass, but was not associated with an increase in water uptake rate. Thus, similar transpiration rates may have partly been due to biomass partitioning between water uptake (root) and water loss (leaf) structures in response to water and light treatments. Fast growth rates, greater morphological plasticity, and a more ramified and finer root system in eucalypt seedlings are characterisitics which may be advantageous to growth and survival under high irradiance and low water availability such as occur on exposed aspects. Alternatively, slower growth rates, shallow and less ramified
An Empirical Application for Determining the Factors of Net Interest Margin of Turkish Deposit Banks

This study aims to identify the factors influencing the net interest margin (NFM) based on micro variables within the Turkish deposit banking sector. Secondary data sources were utilized to gather the necessary data for the analysis. Descriptive design was chosen as the model for analysis, and NFM levels were initially grouped through clustering. During the analysis, NFM levels were examined across relevant periods and banks to determine where high and medium NFM levels were concentrated. Consequently, it was observed that LR, ROA, AQ, MO, SCL, MKDO, FVO, and MO, MKDO, and FVO levels significantly impact the NFM level, whereas ROA and AQ levels, along with the NFM level itself, exhibit a lower influence.
Définition des critères d'entreposage, de transport et de distribution au champ du Perillus bioculatus, un prédateur naturel du doryphore de la pomme de terre

The Colorado potato beetle (CPB), Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Say), is the major pest insect of potato crops. To date, the use of chemical insecticides remains the most popular method to control the CPB populations. However, heavy reliance on chemical insecticides could resuit in health and environmental problems. Moreover, because of its high adaptability, most of the registered chemicals are presently not efficient to manage this important potato pest on a long term basis. The biological control of the CPB using the natural insect predator, Perillus bioculatus, has been proven to be one of the most promising alternatives to chemical insecticides at a small scale. However, the scientific literature on the transport and delivery conditions of this predator in the field is almost inexistant. In the context of a sustainable agriculture, the major challenge remains the distribution of this predator at a commercial scale. The main objective of this research study was therefore to détermine the adéquate transport and short term storage conditions at the farm of the second instar nymphs of Perillus bioculatus. Storage températures in the range of 9 to 15°C did not significantly effect the survival of 2 instar nymphs kept for a maximum of eight days under storage conditions. For storage periods of equal to or less than 10 days in complète darkness, the lack of a photoperiod during storage did not effect the survival and subséquent development to the next stage of the 2 instar nymphs.

Altered Plasma microRNA Signature in Hospitalized COVID-19 Patients Requiring Oxygen Support

To discover potential micro(mi)RNA biomarkers of SARS-CoV-2 infection and disease progression, large-scale deep-sequencing analysis of small RNA expression was performed on plasma samples from 40 patients hospitalized for SARS-CoV-2 infection (median 13.50 [IQR 9–24] days since symptoms initiation) and 21 healthy noninfected individuals. A total of 1218 different miRNAs were identified. When compared with healthy noninfected donors, SARS-CoV-2-infected patients showed significantly (fold change [FC] > 1.2 and adjusted p [padj] < 0.05) altered expression of 190 miRNAs. The top-10 differentially expressed (DE) miRNAs were miR-122-5p, let-7b-5p, miR-146a-5p, miR-342-3p, miR-146b-5p, miR-629-5p, miR-24-3p, miR-12136, let-7a-5p, and miR-191-5p, which displayed FC and padj values ranging from 153 to 5 and 2.51 × 10−32 to 2.21 × 10−21, respectively, which unequivocally diagnosed SARS-CoV-2 infection. No differences in blood cell counts and biochemical plasma parameters, including interleukin 6, ferritin, and D-dimer, were observed between COVID-19 patients on high-flow oxygen therapy, low-flow oxygen therapy, or not requiring oxygen therapy. Notably, 31 significantly deregulated miRNAs were found, when patients on high- and low-flow oxygen therapy were compared. SARS-CoV-2 infection generates a specific miRNA signature in hospitalized patients. Specific miRNA profiles are associated with COVID-19 prognosis in patients requiring oxygen flow.
Distribuição espacial e temporal da guaiúba Ocyurus chrysurus (Bloch, 1791) (Teleostei, Lutjanidae) capturada pela frota pesqueira artesanal na região nordeste do Brasil

Spatial and temporal distribution of the yellowtail snapper Ocyurus chrysurus (Bloch, 1791) (Teleostei, Lutjanidae) caught by the artisanal fleet in northeastern Brazil. Fish sampling activities were carried out between 1998 and 2000, accompanying the landings of bottom-line operations of the artisanal fleet in northeastern Brazil. In order to standardize mean abundance indexes based on catch and effort data regarding Ocyurus chrysurus and identify mean abundance tendencies in time and space, generalized linear models (GLMs) were used on 1556 fisheries recorded during the study period. A standard relative abundance index (CPUE) for the most frequent vessel in catches was estimated, using factors and coefficients generated in the GLMs. Mean abundance indexes indicate that the species has a greater yield in the state of Bahia, with a tendency toward lower values at lower latitudes in the study area. The highest mean CPUE values were estimated between depths of 25 and 50 m. Non-linear models applied for abundance in relation to distance from the coast demonstrate that O. chrysurus has a differentiated aggregation structure depending on the extension of the continental shelf throughout northeastern Brazil. There was a decline in mean abundance indexes throughout the study period, which may have been caused by the considerable fishing effort targeting this species.

Association of Blood NK Cell Phenotype with the Severity of Liver Fibrosis in Patients with Chronic Viral Hepatitis C with Genotype 1 or 3

Background: NK cells phenotype and functional state in different genotypes of chronic viral hepatitis C (CVHC), depending on liver fibrosis severity, have not been sufficiently studied, which limits the possibilities for the development of pathology therapy. Methods: The CVHC diagnosis was based on the EASL recommendations (2018). Clinical examination with liver elastometry was performed in 297 patients with genotype 1 and in 231 patients with genotype 3 CVHC. The blood NK cells phenotype was determined by flow cytometry in 74 individuals with genotype 1 and in 69 individuals with genotype 3 CVHC. Results: The frequency of METAVIR liver fibrosis stages F3–F4 was 32.5% in individuals with genotype 3, and 20.5% in individuals with genotype 1 CVHC (p = 0.003). In patients with both genotype 1 and genotype 3 CVHC, a decrease in the total number of blood NK cells, CD56brightCD16+ NK cells and an increase in the proportion of CD56dimCD16+ NK cells, CD94+ and CD38 + CD73+ NK cells were registered in patients with fibrosis stage F3–F4 by METAVIR in comparison with persons with METAVIR fibrosis stage F0–F1. Conclusions: In patients with both genotype 1 and genotype 3 CVHC, an imbalance in the ratio between cytokine-producing and cytotoxic NK cells and an increase in the content of NK cells that express inhibitory molecules were determined in patients with severe liver fibrosis.
Inundaciones en el noroeste de la Península Ibérica: el caso de Pontedeume (A Coruña)

Floods are the geological and geographical risk with high social and economic impact. The anthropic development of the basin of the Eume river makes it increasingly more important to control the aspects that contribute to flooding in the area. The Eume river is the sixth Galician river in length, 80 km, and has a drainage area of 470.22 km. It contains nine municipalities and more than 45.000 people. In the oceanic climate of Galicia, which reach 2.000 mm of annual precipitation, and where the watersheds are maximally exploited, flood risk should be considered. This paper presents the process of developing floodplain mapping for three sectors of Eume River basin: Serra do Xistral, As Pontes de García Rodríguez and river mouth. The delineation of flood areas was carried out by combining statistical, hydrological and geomorphological methods. Some project procedures have been automated by the use of geographic information systems.
