3D Flexible Frequency Selective Surface with Stable Electromagnetic Transmission Properties

Frequency selective surfaces (FSS) that can be tightly laminated to complex nondevelopable surfaces have a wide range of applications in many engineering areas. This paper presents a 3D flexible FSS prepared by mechanically guided 3D assembly, capable of being conformally adhered to complex surfaces, while maintaining stable frequency selective properties as well as transmission performance. The stretching strain applied to the prestrained ecoflex substrate can precisely tune and control the buckled 3D metal structures, which leads to the stretchability of the flexible FSS, introduces the increase of the inductance inside the metal cells, and expands the metal gap resulting in a reduction of the capacitance between the unit cells. The mutual correlation of capacitance and inductance ensures in the mechanism that the FSS transmission characteristics will not be significantly affected by the applied strain, as verified by calculations using the equivalent circuit method. Both the results obtained by the experiments and simulations indicate that the resonant frequency of the 3D flexible FSS is 5.7 GHz and the bandwidth at −10 dB is 0.94 GHz, while the resonant frequency shift will not exceed 0.45 Hz, and −10 dB bandwidth change will not exceed 0.32 GHz with applied strain of 17.8% in the ecoflex substrate. At the same time, the 3D flexible FSS maintains stable transmission performance for oblique incidence, with only 0.5 GHz frequency shift at 45° incidence. This stretchable flexible FSS with stable electromagnetic (EM) properties may find potential applications in EM shielding and spatial filtering due to its high flexibility, ready applicability, and cost‐effectiveness.
Discrepancia de Género y Malestar Emocional en Varones Universitarios

Introducción: Se escribe a la discrepancia de género en varones universitarios y sus repercusiones en el desarrollo del malestar emocional. La discrepancia de género surge cuando una persona no se percibe conforme a los parámetros dominantes de género de su contexto, y en respuesta, pueden surgir la hiperestereotipación de su conducta y afectaciones su salud mental. Método: Se realizó un estudio descriptivo, transversal con metodología mixta, utilizando un cuestionario para medir la discrepancia y el estrés que produce, y posteriormente, una entrevista semi-estructurada. Se analizaron las experiencias de cinco hombres universitarios que reportaron discrepancia de género, para obtener su percepción sobre ésta, el malestar emocional asociado y otros efectos en su conducta. Resultados: Los principales resultados señalan, que debido a la autocrítica y los comentarios adversos sobre su masculinidad, los varones experimentaron diferentes sentimientos de malestar, destacando al enojo, la tristeza y el miedo. Discusión y conclusión: La discrepancia de género y la percepción que los varones tienen de sí mismos los orilla a reproducir conductas de riesgo de la masculinidad hegemónica; el sentimiento de no cumplir con estas conductas al nivel de otros varones produce malestar emocional.
Company Policies in Indonesia in Overcoming Employee Compensation and Job Satisfaction During the Covid-19 Pandemic Period

Introduction: Compensation is all benefits/results of work received by an employee for the results of his work, either directly or indirectly. Job Satisfaction is a feeling that is described as feeling happy (satisfied) with what employees get from the company. Corona or Covid-19 is a new type of virus (SARS-CoV-2). The development of the coronavirus has hit various sectors, especially the economic sector. The Covid-19 pandemic problem appears to be affecting employee compensation and job satisfaction in the workplace because employees are forced to work differently from working in offices. The purpose of the literature review is to find out how the conditions of compensation and job satisfaction of employees and companies in Indonesia during the Covid-19 pandemic. Method: Literature Review. Of the 8 studies used, 8 of them used quantitative research methods. The population is all employees in various companies and the samples used are some employees who work in companies in Indonesia and some employees of various companies in the world. Results: Based on 8 studies, it was found that Employee Compensation and Job Satisfaction from company policies during the Covid-19 Pandemic was quite decreasing. Because compensation does not signif-icantly increase and even decreases, employee job satisfaction also decreases which can come from the extent to which people like or dislike their work. Discussion: Compensation and Job Satisfaction for employees provided by the company during the Covid-19 Pandemic is a problem that must be studied and found a solution so that employee performance remains good and quality.
Evaluación de biocarbón de caña de azúcar en el desarrollo de Pinus greggii Engelm. ex Parl. en condiciones de vivero

Existe la necesidad de sustituir componentes de los sustratos para el desarrollo de las plántulas en vivero forestal, por productos de bajo costo y sobre todo por materiales renovables. El biocarbón es liviano, poroso y presenta una alta capacidad de retención de agua. Por lo anterior, el objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar el uso de biocarbón a base de bagazo de caña de azúcar en la producción de plantas de pino prieto (Pinus greggii Engelm. ex Parl.), bajo condiciones de vivero. Se evaluaron cuatro tratamientos: (a) biocarbón con suelo forestal, (b) sustrato forestal (mezcla de 12.5% peat moss, 12.5% agrolita, 25% vermiculita y 50% corteza de pino), (c) biocarbón con sustrato forestal, ambos en una relación 1:9 (biocarbón:suelo, biocarbón:sustrato), y (d) suelo forestal solo. Se evaluó el efecto del biocarbón y de la fertilización (N, P y K) en el desempeño de los tratamientos en suelo y sustrato forestal. Las variables evaluadas fueron: altura de planta, diámetro de tallo, biomasa aérea, biomasa radical, biomasa total aérea, a relación biomasa aérea/radical; además la concentración de nutrientes acumulados (N, P, Ca, Mg, K y Na) en la parte aérea y radical. Los resultados obtenidos indican que como resultado de la adición de biocarbón al suelo y la fertilización, la altura, diámetro, biomasa (aérea y total) de pino prieto, fueron semejantes a las obtenidas en sustrato forestal, solo o combinado con biocarbón. Estos resultados se asociaron a la adición de biocarbón al suelo que incrementó la absorción de N y su concentración en la biomasa aérea, y favoreció la disponibilidad de Mg, Ca, K y P, éstos dos últimos elementos adicionados en la fertilización. Se concluye que la combinación de biocarbón y suelo en una relación (1:9) (p/p) con adición de fertilizante (N, P y K) puede ser empleado en el desarrollo de Pinus greggii Engelm ex Parl en vivero.
Guidance to Pre-tokeniztion for SacreBLEU: Meta-Evaluation in Korean

SacreBLEU, by incorporating a text normalizing step in the pipeline, has been well-received as an automatic evaluation metric in recent years. With agglutinative languages such as Korean, however, the metric cannot provide a conceivable result without the help of customized pre-tokenization. In this regard, this paper endeavors to examine the influence of diversified pre-tokenization schemes –word, morpheme, character, and subword– on the aforementioned metric by performing a meta-evaluation with manually-constructed into-Korean human evaluation data. Our empirical study demonstrates that the correlation of SacreBLEU (to human judgment) fluctuates consistently by the token type. The reliability of the metric even deteriorates due to some tokenization, and MeCab is not an exception. Guiding through the proper usage of tokenizer for each metric, we stress the significance of a character level and the insignificance of a Jamo level in MT evaluation.
Effects and Safety of Sacubitril/Valsartan for Patients with Myocardial Infarction: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Patients who develop heart failure (HF) after an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) are at higher risk of adverse fatal and nonfatal outcomes. Studies have shown sacubitril/valsartan can further reduce the risk of cardiovascular death or hospitalization for heart failure by 20% compared with enalapril. At the same time, its tolerance and safety are better. However, the current evidence regarding the efficacy of sacubitril/valsartan in patients with heart failure after acute myocardial infarction is controversial. To assess the effect of sacubitril/valsartan on heart failure after acute myocardial infarction, we conducted a systematic review of the literature and a meta-analysis of existing randomized clinical trials. Meta-analysis of randomized controlled trails is used where data are collected from PubMed, the Cochrane library, Embase, and Web of Science. Data about sacubitril/valsartan were available from 5 studies. Forest plots showed that the sacubitril/valsartan group had a 299% higher value of sacubitril/valsartan to the control group (MD = 2.99%, 95% CI: 2.01, 3.96, I2 = 78%, P < 0.00001, Figure 2), and the difference was statistically significant. Forest plots showed that the sacubitril/valsartan group had a 531% lower value of LVEF to the control group (MD = −5.31%, 95% CI: −7.36, −3.26, I2 = 91%, P < 0.00001, Figure 2), and the difference was statistically significant. Forest plots showed that the sacubitril/valsartan group had a 133% lower value of NT-proBNP to the control group (MD = −1.33%, 95% CI: −1.54, −1.12, I2 = 96%, P < 0.00001, Figure 3). Forest plots showed that the sacubitril/valsartan group had a 49% lower risk of heart failure to the control group (MD = 0.49, 95% CI: 0.27, 0.89, I2 = 0%, P=0.02, Figure 3). The patients in experimental showed an obviously lower OR of MACE (OR = 0.47, 95% CI: 0.27, 0.82, P=0.007, Figure 3). The data were statistically significant. We have observed that for patients with heart failure after acute myocardial infarction, early administration of sacubitril/valsartan can significantly reduce the incidence of heart rate, left ventricular ejection fraction, NT-proBNP, and MACE. Our meta-analysis suggests that taking sacubitril/valsartan is relatively safe and effective, especially if started early after acute myocardial infarction.
Cardiac Protective Effect of Terminalia muelleri Extract in Rat Model of Diabetes
Mellitus

Cardiovascular disease is the major cause of morbidity and mortality in people with type 2 diabetes. The present study aims to evaluate the cardiac protective effect of Terminalia muelleri (TM) in diabetic rats. Treatment of diabetic rats with a daily oral dose of (TM) extract (200 mg/kg b.wt) or pioglitazone tablet (1.58 mg/kg b.wt) for four weeks resulted in a significant decrease in the glucose, total cholesterol (TC), triglycride (TG), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), malondialdehyde (MDA), aspartate amino transferase (AST) and creatin kinase-MB (CK-MB) activities as well as homocysteine (Hcy) and troponin-1 (cTn-1) levels in association with a significant increase in high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) level, glutathione (GSH) content and nuclear factor-erythroid factor 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) level when compared with diabetic rats. These data suggest that TM might be an effective antidiabetic agent in the prevention of diabetic complication. TM extract could help in combating against oxidation damage in cardiac tissue.
Manganese Mobility in Gale Crater, Mars: Leached Bedrock and Localized Enrichments

In Gale crater on Mars, the rover Curiosity has discovered evidence of fluid mobilization of the redox‐sensitive element manganese. We present results for Mn from Curiosity's Alpha Particle X‐ray Spectrometer (APXS), which show that the average MnO concentration in mudstone‐dominated sedimentary units (0.22 wt%) is about one‐half of the concentration in the average Mars crust (0.44 wt%). Geochemical trends indicate that Mn in the sedimentary bedrock, most of which has a basaltic provenance, was leached by chemical alteration and dissolution. In >350 vertical meters of mudstone‐dominated strata, the apparent leaching of Mn and retention of Fe in Fe‐O‐H phase(s) resulted in the fractionation of Fe and Mn, indicating relatively moderate Eh‐pH fluid conditions that were not highly alkaline, reducing, or oxidizing. Exceptions are fracture‐associated, silica‐rich haloes where both Mn and Fe were leached by low pH fluids. The rover also discovered Mn‐rich veins, nodules, and patchy, dark coatings on rock surfaces, which are variably associated with enrichments in Fe, P, Cl, and/or Zn. These Mn‐rich features represent ∼1% of the 1029 APXS measurements acquired over ∼25 km of rover traverse. A thermochemical model shows that dissolved Mn2+ could have been concentrated via evaporation, sublimation, and/or freezing. Manganese was then likely precipitated in localized features when >99.99% of the Mn2+‐bearing water was removed from the system. These findings indicate that Mn was mobile in Gale crater and therefore bioavailable as a potential energy source for life.
International Journal of Electrical and Computer Engineering (IJECE)

Received Sep 24, 2022 Revised Mar 7, 2023 Accepted Mar 9, 2023 Vehicle infrastructure must address the challenges posed by today's advances toward connected and autonomous vehicles. To allow for more flexible architectures, high-bandwidth connections and scalability are needed to connect many sensors and electronic control units (ECUs). At the same time, deterministic and low latency is a critical and significant design requirement to support urgent real-time applications in autonomous vehicles. As a recent solution, the time-sensitive network (TSN) was introduced as Ethernet-based amendments in IEEE 802.1 TSN standards to meet those needs. However, it had hurdle to be overcome before it can be used effectively. This paper discusses the latest studies concerning the automotive Ethernet requirements, including transmission delay studies to improve worst-case end-to-end delay and end-to-end jitter. Also, the paper focuses on the securing Ethernet-based in-vehicle networks (IVNs) by reviewing new encryption and authentication methods and approaches.
Crisis Response During Payment Disruptions - The Themes of TRAMS

A qualitative analysis of observation protocols and audio recordings from 14 crisis response exercises has been conducted revealing eight themes reoccurring in multi-disciplinary team discussions about crisis response to large disruptions to the card payment system. The themes were: Coordinate and collaborate, Payment options, Cash circulation, Fuel and transportation, Security, Inform, communicate and the media, Hoarding and rationing, and Vulnerable groups. The analysis suggest that Swedish society is vulnerable to disruptions in the card payment services, largely due to a low diversity in payment options, the lack of prepared back up solutions for payment, and insufficient cash flows to support a cash only scenario. A longer (several days) disruption in the card payment system will demand coordinating mechanisms for information management, available payment options, and preparedness for rapid establishment of cash flows. Today, these mechanisms do not exist. Simulation exercises with stake-holders are an important mean for increasing awareness about these vulnerabilities and the challenges associated with coping with them.
IDENTIFICATION AND CONFIRMATION OF UNKNOWN MEAT USING MICTOCHONDRIAL CYTOCHROME C OXYDASE I (CO-I) MARKER IN DNA BARCODING TECHNOLOGY

Non vegetarian food has expanded market in the world, especially, in those areas where vegetarian foods are available in less quantity. Meat and meat products (cow beef) are obtained by slaughtering animals including cattle. However, the origin of animal species in food links with religious ethics, which are violated by sellers for commercial gain including mismatch in labelling and ingredients and presence of trace amount of restricted animal meat in daily used meat foods. Hence, authentication of the meat based foods comes in role that protects ethics and animal protection. In this review, we have investigated the authentication status of meat (cow beef) based food products using globally used COI gene dependent DNA barcoding technology.
A comparative prospective research looked at the efficacy and tolerability of vitamin C as an add-on treatment to a typical antihypertensive regimen

Aim: The aim of the present study to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of vitamin C as add on therapy to standard antihypertensive regimen. Methods: A comparative prospective study was conducted in the Department of Pharmacology, Anugrah Narayan Magadh Medical College and Hospital, Gaya, Bihar, India for 1 year. The study was undertaken in mild to moderate hypertensive patients to find out the efficacy and tolerability of vitamin C as an add-on therapy to the standard anti-hypertensive regimen in the reduction of blood pressure and C-reactive protein levels. Total 160 patients with systolic blood pressure in the 140179 mm Hg range and diastolic blood pressure in the 90109 mm Hg range with C-reactive protein levels in the 1012 mg/dl range were recruited for the study out of 720 patients screened. Results: Out of 720 patients screened, 160 patients were included in this study. They were randomized into four groups, group 1, group 2, group 3 and group 4, each consisting of 40 patients. In group 1, mean age was 44.22±6.88, group II 44.97±9.87, group III 47.01±7.23 whereas in group 4 45.14±6.81. On comparison we found non-significant difference with P value.At baseline there was non-significant difference among all the four group with p value 0.25, whereas at all the visit at 1, 3 and 6 month there was significant difference among the four group with p value <0.01, <0.001 and <0.001. At baseline there was no significant difference among different groups in diastolic BP, whereas there was significant difference among all four groups at all 3 visit i.e 1, 3 and 6 months with p value<0.001. Conclusion: Vitamin C at the dose of 500 mg OD as an add on therapy to enalapril 5 mg BD causes significant reduction of both systolic and diastolic blood pressure, vitamin C 500 mg OD supplementation to the standard anti-hypertensive drugs may produce better reduction of blood pressure, vitamin C 500 mg may be recommended as an adjuvant to regular antihypertensive regimen to reduce cardiovascular and cerebrovascular risks associated with hypertension.

Livelihood Security of An Isolated Gothi Koya Tribe in Telangana State

Tribes are a weaker section of society due to their low social and economic standing. Even in the contemporary day, some tribal groups remain geographically isolated and live in the jungles. One of them is the Gothi koya tribe. Therefore, an attempt was made to study the profile characteristics and livelihood security of Gothi Koya tribe. The study was conducted in Mulugu district, Telangana State with an ex-post facto research design. A total of 60 samples from three villages under ITDA (Integrated Tribal Development Agency), Eturnagaram were selected purposively for this study. Results revealed that half of the respondents (50%) fall under the age group between 20- 30 years and the majority (85%) of the respondents were illiterates. There was a strong positive significant relationship between education and livelihood security at 1% level of significance (p<0.01) and other independent variables found no significance at 5% level (p<0.05).
An Automated Method to Enrich and Expand Consumer Health Vocabularies Using GloVe Word Embeddings

Clear language makes communication easier between any two parties. However, a layman may have difficulty communicating with a professional due to not understanding the specialized terms common to the domain. In healthcare, it is rare to find a layman knowledgeable in medical jargon, which can lead to poor understanding of their condition and/or treatment. To bridge this gap, several professional vocabularies and ontologies have been created to map laymen medical terms to professional medical terms and vice versa. Many of the presented vocabularies are built manually or semi-automatically requiring large investments of time and human effort and consequently the slow growth of these vocabularies. In this dissertation, we present an automatic method to enrich existing concepts in a medical ontology with additional laymen terms and also to expand the number of concepts in the ontology that do not have associated laymen terms. Our work has the benefit of being applicable to vocabularies in any domain. Our entirely automatic approach uses machine learning, specifically Global Vectors for Word Embeddings (GloVe), on a corpus collected from a social media healthcare platform to extend and enhance consumer health vocabularies. We improve these vocabularies by incorporating synonyms and hyponyms from the WordNet ontology. By performing iterative feedback using GloVe’s candidate terms, we can boost the number of word occurrences in the co-occurrence matrix allowing our approach to work with a smaller training corpus. Our novel algorithms and GloVe were evaluated using two laymen datasets from the National Library of Medicine (NLM), the Open-Access and Collaborative Consumer Health Vocabulary (OAC CHV) and the MedlinePlus Healthcare Vocabulary. For our first goal, enriching concepts, the results show that GloVe was able to find new laymen terms with an Fscore of 48.44%. Our best algorithm enhanced the corpus with synonyms from WordNet, outperformed GloVe with an F-score relative improvement of 25%. For our second goal, expanding the number of concepts with related laymen’s terms, our synonym-enhanced GloVe outperformed GloVe with a relative F-score relative improvement of 63%. The results of the system were in general promising and can be applied not only to enrich and expand laymen vocabularies for medicine but any ontology for a domain, given an appropriate corpus for the domain. Our approach is applicable to narrow domains that may not have the huge training corpora typically used with word embedding approaches. In essence, by incorporating an external source of linguistic information, WordNet, and expanding the training corpus, we are getting more out of our training corpus. Our system can help building an application for patients where they can read their physician's letters more understandably and clearly. Moreover, the output of this system can be used to improve the results of healthcare search engines, entity recognition systems, and many others. ©2021 by Mohammed Ibrahim All Rights Reserved
