Hemostatic Effect of 20(S)-Panaxadiol by Induced Platelet Aggregation Depending on Calcium Signaling Pathway

Panax notoginseng (Burk.) F.H. Chen is the most traditional hemostatic herb in China. Our previous research found that 20(S)-protopanaxadiol showed the hemostatic effect. And 20(S)-panaxadiol (PD) has a similar structure to 20(S)-protopanaxadiol with a dammarane skeleton. So, this article mainly studies the hemostatic effect of PD. The mouse tail amputation and liver scratch models were used to detect the hemostatic effect of PD. Blood routine and plasma coagulation parameters were measured by using a blood analyzer. The platelet aggregometer analyzed the platelet aggregation rate and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) concentration. Moreover, the intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i), P-selectin (CD62P), PAC-1 (GP IIb/IIIa receptor marker), and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) of platelets were also detected. The results showed that PD obviously shortened the bleeding time of the model mouse, affected the RBC and PLT parameters of rats, reduced APTT and TT, elevated FIB concentration, and promoted human/rat-washed platelet aggregation in vitro. PD promoted the release of ATP and [Ca2+]i and slightly increased the expression of CD62P and PAC-1 of platelets without 1 mM Ca2+. After adding 1 mM Ca2+, PD obviously increased ATP releasing and CD62P and GP IIb/IIIa expression rate and decreased the cAMP level of platelets. These parameter changes of PD-caused platelet were inhibited by vorapaxar. Besides, PD increased the phosphorylation of phosphoinositide 3-kinase/protein kinase B/glycogen synthase kinase 3β (PI3K/Akt/GSK3β) of human platelets. PD is an important hemostatic ingredient in Panax notoginseng, which induced platelet aggregation by affecting the calcium signaling and activating the PI3K/Akt/GSK3β signaling pathway.
Elimination of DC-Link Current Ripple for Modular Multilevel Converters

The modular multilevel converter (MMC) is attractive for medium-and high-power Applications because of its high modularity, availability, and power quality. In this paper the current ripple is evaluated on the dc connection of the three-phase MMC derived from the pulse-width modulation scheme based on the phase-shifted carrier. For the existing removal of ripple a control method is introduced. The current ripple on the dc link of the three-phase MMC can be effectively eliminated by regulating the phase-shifted angles of the carrier waves in the three phases of the MMC. MMC simulations and the findings support the efficacy of the proposed existing regulation of the removal of ripples
CMT-RSA: Secure and Fast Encryption Technique By Using RSA with Mersenne Twister

Worldwide web is the fastest growing service that allows us to share and access the information from anywhere by anyone. This factor about availability of information on the web services and its access through internet application questions to provide security of the data that we share and access. Hence there the need of building a secured cryptosystem over the data transmission lead to invention of so many public key cryptosystem in which RSA is a major one. This cryptosystem is widely used to provide security services to preserve the privacy policies of any application where as strongest RSA depends on factors of randomness of the large prime numbers used and their integer factorization to break the system. Considering the generation of random large prime numbers as a key factor, we propose a new version of a cryptographically secured RSA for public key cryptosystem. The usage of Crypt Mersenne Twister in the proposed algorithm increases the key generation time with large public key component. This paper also focuses on decreasing encryption time and decryption time when it is compared with other algorithms.
MARVer: a Tool for Verification of Robotic System’s Safety

Robotic system developers generally perform the safety verification of the developed systems with testing methods based on their experience. However, robotic systems have become more autonomous and complex, with the need to make production processes more flexible. In this case, there is a need for formal and automated verification tools to make the safety verification of the robotic systems more reliable, least dependent on the human factor, and less workload. With this motivation, this paper presents a tool developed for safety verification for robotic systems. The Model Aided Runtime Verification Tool (MARVer) employs model-checking and runtime verification methods combinatory making the verification process more formal, predictable, and repeatable manner as well as increasing the scope of verification. An experiment was conducted on an automated robotic inspection cell for the quality control of automotive body-in-white (ROKOS).
Yield Dynamics and Nutrient Quality of Napier Grass ( Pennisetum purpureum ) Varieties under Consecutive Harvests

Negative feed balance in terms of dry matter and forage quality has been affecting animal production in Ethiopian livestock system. Yield dynamics and forage quality assessment of ten Napier grass ( Pennisetum purpureum Schumach .) genotypes to assess the yield and nutritional quality of the grass was conducted in the field of Chano Mille Research substation from September 2018 to November 2019. The experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design with three replications. All growth parameters showed significant ( P <0.01) variation among genotypes that were contributing either to yield or quality. Depending on the weather condition of growing months, dry matter yield was varied among genotypes and harvesting months significantly ( P <0.01). Dry matter yield varied from 4.87 to 17.35 t/ha for weather variation in growing months and from 9.57 to 18.4 t/ha for genotype variation. Leaf to stem ratio was not varied significantly among genotypes. Stem and leaf quality variation among genotypes for calcium, phosphorus and crude protein was significant while not for neutral and acid detergent fibers. Zehone_02 and ILRI_16835 genotypes could be of optimum dry matter yield and quality to be used as a feed option in a study area and similar agro-ecological zones. Assessing silage and hay quality and animal preference warranted with the production of the crop under irrigated condition.
E ﬀ ects of social, environmental, and institutional factors on sustainability report assurance: evidence from European countries

Purpose – The purpose of this study is to extend existing knowledge on the determinants of sustainability report (SR) assurance practices. Four different theories – stakeholder theory, institutional theory, signaling theory and legitimacy theory – are used to formulate several hypotheses regarding the main factors that can in ﬂ uence a company ’ s decisionto assure itsSRs. Design/methodology/approach – Using a sample of 417 listed organizations based in different European countries over ﬁ ve years, the effects of stakeholder commitment, country orientation toward sustainability, ﬁ rm environmentalperformanceandbusinessethicscontroversiesonthedecisiontoassureSRsareassessed. Findings – The results show that a company ’ s decision to assure its SRs is motivated by the need to maintain good relations with its stakeholders (which is in line with stakeholder theory and legitimacy theory), as well as by the willingness to signal their sustainability performance (which is in line with signaling theory) and to gain legitimacy. On the contrary, business ethics controversies do not seem to be relevant to a company ’ s assurancepractices. Originality/value – This paper provides new insights into the in ﬂ uence that social, environmental and institutional factors have on assurance strategies. New factors that previous research does not investigate – environmental performance, business ethics controversies and corporate governance – are tested. Factors that arealready investigated in theliterature are considered from an original perspective of introducing alternative measures(e.g. for thescope of nationalsustainabilitypolicies).
Addendum to FMS 16-03: Redefinition of Reporting Groups by Combining Ayakulik and Frazer into One Group for the Genetic Baseline of North American Sockeye Salmon for Mixed Stock Analyses of Kodiak Management Area Commercial Fisheries, 2014–2016

Accurate, precise estimates of stock-specific harvests of sockeye salmon ( Oncorhynchus nerka ) are lacking for commercial fisheries in the Kodiak Management Area (KMA). Such information would be useful for reconstructing runs, building accurate brood tables to define escapement goals, and refining management by identifying spatial and temporal harvest patterns of local and nonlocal stocks. Hence, the Alaska Department of Fish and Game developed a genetic baseline for mixed stock analysis (MSA) to estimate the stock compositions of sockeye salmon harvests in select KMA commercial salmon fisheries from 2014 to 2016. This report describes additional baseline testing done to verify the accuracy and precision of MSA performance for Frazer and Ayakulik reporting groups given their shared ancestry and close genetic relationships. Specifically, these additional fishery scenario tests better reflect the temporal nature of KMA commercial harvest by testing MSA performance with different relative proportions of early- and late-run Ayakulik and Karluk fish. These additional fishery scenario tests indicate consistent, directional biases in the misallocation of fish between Frazer and Ayakulik. The baseline is unable to provide accurate and precise estimates of stock composition for Frazer and Ayakulik reporting groups separately, but is able to when they are combined. Thus, these 2 stocks will be combined into a composite Frazer/Ayakulik reporting group for future reporting of 2014–2016 KMA commercial harvest mixtures.
Tension-and-Release: A Design Principle for Dynamic Materials

up and release energy in establishing our aesthetic experience. This process incorporates “continuity, cumulation, conservation, tension, and anticipation” (p. 143) and is argued for in various art forms, such as drawing, poetry, theatre, and novels, which are typically very abstract. However, tension-and-release could also be observed in more functional related everyday interaction designs. The following research artefacts illustrate how the functionality of a system can make The physical world (our bodies and materiality) enables increasingly complex interactions between humans and systems. While the material-turn in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) allows dynamic materials to exhibit temporal (change-in-time) behaviours, current research concentrates on the expressive properties of the artefact and overlooks the nuanced human-system interplay. A conceptual design language is now needed for designers to work with these distinctive reciprocal qualities. Tension-and-release is a universal principle established in art forms such as theatre, dance, and music, which derive from our immediate, multisensory understanding of the world. In this paper, we aim to extract and apply this principle to the design of interactive systems through the lens of aesthetic experience. We demonstrate our design theory through practical case studies involving the design of interactive material experience and examine how tension-and-release interactions are perceived and observed on three levels: Physical, Perceptual-Motor, and Psychological. These observations further identify three concepts within tension-and-release that can guide designers towards implementing this principle into their practice: timing mechanisms , catharsis , and conflict & resolution . Science. This article offers researchers a conceptual vocabulary for designing temporal and reciprocal behaviours in dynamic materials. We use time-based contexts such as theatre, dance, and music to build a design principle articulated as tension-and-release .
ROM BASED QUADRUPLE ERROR CORRECTION FOR 4-BIT ADJACENT ERRORS

: A standard system-level approach to harden memory against multiple bit upsets (MBUs) is the use of advanced error correction codes (ECCs) correction technologies. Consequently the design of ECCs with enhanced error correction and poor reliability has been an significant problem particularly for adjacent ECCs. Emerging MBU mitigation codes rely mainly on error correction of up to 3-bit bursts.When the device grows and the cell frequency size decreases, the amount of impacted bits quickly expands to more than 3 bit. Consequently, the previous approaches in harsh environments are not adequate to meet the reliability requirements of the applications. A technique is provided in this paperA technique to extend the 3-bit burst error correction (BEC) codes with quadruple adjacent error correction (QAEC). Initially, the principles of the interface are established, bur now a search algorithm is built to find the codes which match these principles. The 3-bit matrices obtained for BEC H come with QAEC. They will not require extensive check bits for consistency relative to a 3-bit BEC register. The performance of the 3-bit BEC is also considerably increased when adding the latest algorithm to previous 3-bit BEC files. Significant words: B urst error-correction codes (BECCs), multiple bit upset (MBU), memory, quadruple adjacent error correction (QAEC).
Veterinary Science in Ancient India: A Study on Historical Perspective

: Medical science attained a high perfection in India during the ancient time. In several ancient Indian texts, detailed norms of health and hygiene can be found. Animals also received good medical care in ancient India. The history of veterinary medicine in India is closely related to the development of human medicine; because, the ancient Indian physicians treated not only human beings, but they were also trained in the care of animals. The treatment of animal diseases in ancient India was well-developed and carried out with great care by well-trained physicians. Atharvaveda provides interesting information about illness of animals, herbal medicines and cure of diseases. In ancient India, the greatest and most respected teacher of veterinary science was Salihotra, who is considered the father of Indian veterinary science. Palkapya and Atreyawas another two great veterinarianin ancient India. Almost all aspects of surgery and medicine including veterinary ethics were dealt in ancient Indian veterinary treatises. ,
FinMath: Injecting a Tree-structured Solver for Question Answering over Financial Reports

Answering questions over financial reports containing both tabular and textual data (hybrid data) is challenging as it requires models to select information from financial reports and perform complex quantitative analyses. Although current models have demonstrated a solid capability to solve simple questions, they struggle with complex questions that require a multiple-step numerical reasoning process. This paper proposes a new framework named FinMath, which improves the model’s numerical reasoning capacity by injecting a tree-structured neural model to perform multi-step numerical reasoning. Specifically, FinMath extracts supporting evidence from the financial reports given the question in the first phase. In the second phase, a tree-structured neural model is applied to generate a tree expression in a top-down recursive way. Experiments on the TAT-QA dataset show that our proposed approach improves the previous best result by 8.5% absolute for Exact Match (EM) score (50.1% to 58.6%) and 6.1% absolute for numeracy-focused F1 score (58.0% to 64.1%).
Detecting Optimism in Tweets using Knowledge Distillation and Linguistic Analysis of Optimism

Finding the polarity of feelings in texts is a far-reaching task. Whilst the field of natural language processing has established sentiment analysis as an alluring problem, many feelings are left uncharted. In this study, we analyze the optimism and pessimism concepts from Twitter posts to effectively understand the broader dimension of psychological phenomenon. Towards this, we carried a systematic study by first exploring the linguistic peculiarities of optimism and pessimism in user-generated content. Later, we devised a multi-task knowledge distillation framework to simultaneously learn the target task of optimism detection with the help of the auxiliary task of sentiment analysis and hate speech detection. We evaluated the performance of our proposed approach on the benchmark Optimism/Pessimism Twitter dataset. Our extensive experiments show the superior- ity of our approach in correctly differentiating between optimistic and pessimistic users. Our human and automatic evaluation shows that sentiment analysis and hate speech detection are beneficial for optimism/pessimism detection.
Comparing the Performance of Monthly Poverty Measures

Summary: Official poverty estimates for the United States are presented annually and are reported with a considerable lag. The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the problematic nature of this lag, prompting researchers to develop methods to provide more timely estimates of poverty that could be used to understand economic need, and the impact of the government’s response, in closer to real time. One monthly poverty measure, introduced in Parolin, Curran, Matsudaira, Waldfogel, and Wimer (2022; hereafter PCMWW), provides monthly estimates of poverty based on a family unit’s likely monthly income. A separate measure, introduced in Han, Meyer, and Sullivan (2020; hereafter HMS), produces monthly updates of annual poverty estimates based on a survey question asking individuals about their families’ total cash income over the past 12 months. Trends in the two measures do not always align, prompting two questions: what explains the divergent trends, and which measure more reliably represents monthly variation in the well-being of households in the U.S.? This paper investigates these questions. We discuss differences between the PCMWW and HMS measures, and we compare the monthly estimates from the two measures to external benchmarks such as monthly levels of food insufficiency, mental health, and employment outcomes. Our analysis produces three primary findings. shows that the variation of the PCMWW monthly poverty measure that best aligns with trends in food insufficiency is the measure that includes all taxes and transfers, including all COVID-era transfers distributed between 2020 and 2022. This post-tax and post-transfer measure of monthly poverty outperforms a measure of monthly poverty without the COVID-era relief. These findings are also a useful validity check of the methods used to incorporate these COVID-era income transfers into the PCMWW measure: the findings show that these additions to the measurement framework contribute to a more reliable
Final Draft of the original manuscript

15 Layered double hydroxide (LDH) conversion coatings loaded with corrosion inhibitors were 16 suggested for the surface treatment of the aluminum alloy 2024-T3, prior to friction spot joining 17 with carbon-fiber reinforced polyphenylene sulfide (AA2024-T3/CF-PPS). Vanadate was used 18 as a model corrosion inhibitor. Lap shear testing method revealed an increase of 15 % of the 19 joint’s adhesion performance when treated with LDH and before exposure to salt spray. The 20 evaluation of the joints after exposure to salt spray demonstrated a significant difference in the 21 corrosion behavior of the joints when the AA2024-T3 is treated with LDH loaded with nitrate 22 and vanadate species. The LDH intercalated with nitrate revealed a clear improvement on the 23 mechanical and corrosion resistance performance of the joints, even after 6 weeks of salt spray. 24 However, the LDH intercalated with vanadate failed in providing protection against corrosion 25 as well as preserving the mechanical properties of the joints. The effect of the galvanic corrosion 26 was further investigated by zero resistance ammeter measurements as well as localized scanning vibrating electrode technique.

Institutional Knowledge at Singapore Management University Innovation for Inclusive Growth: Towards a Theoretical Framework and a Research Agenda

Inclusive innovation, which we deﬁne as innovation that beneﬁts the disenfranchised, is a process as well as a performance outcome. Consideration of inclusive innovation points to inequalities that may arise in the development and commercialization of innovations, and also acknowledges the inequalities that may occur as a result of value creation and capture. We outline opportunities for the development of theory and empirical research around this construct in the ﬁelds of entrepreneurship, strategy, and marketing. We aim for a synthesis in views of inclusive innovation and call for future research that deals directly with value creation and the distributional consequences of innovation. governance in NGOs may provide CEOs with the latitude to make decisions in their own interests rather than in organizational interests. What is striking about this study is its reliance on management theories of agency and governance. Issues of power, incentive alignment, and power mitigation are all employed to hypothesize about the reasons for managerial risk-taking in this context. The results emphasize individual agency and raise questions for further research about governance in non-proﬁt organizations.
