THE EFFECTIVENESS OF ANCHOVY INTAKE ON EPITHELIAL SOCKET THICKNESS POST EXTRACTION

Background: Epithelial formation or re-epithelialization is one of the parameters in the wound closure. Nutrition has become a major factors in the successful outcome during this process. Anchovy ( Stolephorus sp. ) contains several proteins, vitamins, and minerals that can act as supplements to support wound closure. This research proposed to understand the effect of anchovy intake toward epithelial thickness of the rats post tooth extraction. Method: This research was an experimental laboratory with a post-test-only control group design using 24 rats as a sample. Rats were divided into 2 groups, the control and the treatment group with 12 rats each. The mandibular left first molar of the samples was extracted, then given with aquadest (the control) and anchovy powder (the treatment) during 3, 5, and 7 days. All rats were decapitated after 24 hours from the last treatment, followed by tissue processing and staining with Hematoxylin-Eosin (HE) for examination. A microscope that connects with optilab on a magnification of 100x was used to measure the epithelial thickness on the thickest and thinnest part of the epithelial. The data were analysed with One-way ANOVA test and LSD test. Result: The results showed that the epithelial thickness of the treatment group was significantly increased compared to the control group (p<0.05). Conclusion: This study concludes that the anchovy ( Stolephorus sp .) intake affects increasing epithelial socket thickness of the rats post tooth extraction.
Applying Image Recognition and Tracking Methods for Fish Physiology Detection Based on a Visual Sensor

The proportion of pet keeping has increased significantly. According to the survey results of Business Next, the proportion of Taiwan families keeping pets was 70% in 2020. Among them, the total number of fish pets was close to 33% of the overall pet proportion. Therefore, aquarium pets have become indispensable companions for families. At present, many studies have discussed intelligent aquarium systems. Through image recognition based on visual sensors, we may be able to detect and interpret the physiological status of the fish according to their physiological appearance. In this way, it can help to notify the owner as soon as possible to treat the fish or isolate them individually, so as to avoid the spread of infection. However, most aquarium pets are kept in groups. Traditional image recognition technologies often fail to recognize each fish’s physiological states precisely because of fish swimming behaviors, such as grouping swimming, shading with each other, flipping over, and so on. In view of this, this paper tries to address such problems and then proposes a practical scheme, which includes three phases. Specifically, the first phase tries to enhance the image recognition model for small features based on the prioritizing rules, thus improving the instant recognition capability. Then, the second phase exploits a designed fish-ID tracking mechanism and analyzes the physiological state of the same fish-ID through coherent frames, which can avoid temporal misidentification. Finally, the third phase leverages a fish-ID correction mechanism, which can detect and correct their IDs periodically and dynamically to avoid tracking confusion, and thus potentially improve the recognition accuracy. According to the experiment results, it was verified that our scheme has better recognition performance. The best accuracy and correctness ratio can reach up to 94.9% and 92.67%, which are improved at least 8.41% and 26.95%, respectively, as compared with the existing schemes.

The Application of Acupuncture Therapy for Postoperative Pain Over the Past 20 Years: A Bibliometric Analysis

Purpose The purpose of this study is to analyze and visualize the research trends on acupuncture therapy for postoperative pain over the past 20 years to identify hotspots and frontiers, and provide new research ideas. Methods A search of the Web of Science database, with a time frame of 2001–01-01 to 2022–02-28, was conducted to collect literatures related to acupuncture therapy for postoperative pain. A bibliometric analysis and visualization of results was performed using CiteSpace software for the volume of annual publications, journals, countries, institutions, authors, keywords, and references. Results A total of 840 literatures were eventually included in the analysis. The number of publications has fluctuated upwards each year over the past 20 years and reached a peak in the latest three years. Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine was the journal with the most relevant publications and Pain was the most frequently cited journal. The country with the highest volume of publications was China, and the USA contributed most to the international collaboration. The most prolific and influential authors were Inhyunk Ha and Han JS respectively. The most frequent keyword was “acupuncture”. References with highest frequency or centrality were both systematic evaluations focusing on different acupuncture therapies for postoperative pain relief. Conclusion The field of acupuncture therapy for postoperative pain is currently in a period of high growth. China and the USA have made the largest contribution to the volume of publications. The most influential institutions and authors are mainly from China and South Korea. The overall collaborative network needs to be strengthened. Electroacupuncture and auricular acupuncture (therapeutic techniques), low back surgery (types of surgery), and “postoperative pain, nausea and vomiting” are research hotspots in this field. Improvement of postoperative life quality, proof of clinical efficacy and evidence-based evaluation are the current research trends and frontiers.
CCD photometry of Markarian 421 and 501.

Observations of the BL Lacertae objects Markarian 501 and 421 have been made with a CCD detector at the prime focus of a 3.6 m Canada-France-Hawaii telescope. Each object was observed in two bands of FWHM equaling approximately 700 A, centered at 5000 and 6500 A. Photometric profiles for both objects are shown to be consistent with composite profiles from a point source and an elliptical galaxy which obeys the de Vaucouleurs surface brightness law. The derived photometric parameters of the underlying galaxies show them to be apparently normal elliptical galaxies.
The Effect of Tuned Mass Damper on Seismic Response of Building Frames with Uncertain Structural Characteristics

Tuned mass dampers (TMDs) could be used to absorb the input energy of the applied load, and reduce the response of the building frames. However, the effectiveness of TMD in reducing the response of the building frames could be affected by inherited uncertainties in the structural characteristics of the frames. In this study, in order to investigate the probabilistic response of steel moment-resisting frames equipped with TMDs, variation in the failure probability of the structure has been studied through cumulative damage representative for the stories of the structure. The damage representative of each story has been calculated from the cumulative damage index of the structural elements, based on the weighted average approach. Although the response of the deterministic model of the structure could be reduced by installing TMD, the results of the numerical simulations on the probabilistic response of the structures indicate that for the records that cause excessive damage in the stories of the structures, the effect of the TMD on failure probability of the structure could be detrimental. doi: 10.5829/idosi.ije. 2015.28. 05b.03
Fly a Rocket! ESA's hands-on programme for undergraduate students

The Fly a Rocket! programme is a hands-on project offered by the European Space Agency’s (ESA’s) Education Office in collaboration with Andøya Space Education and the Norwegian Space Agency (Norsk Romsenter). The programme represents a unique opportunity for entry-level university students from diverse backgrounds to build, test, and launch an actual sounding rocket and obtain otherwise unattainable practical experience. In September 2020, the ESA Education Office announced the third edition of the programme, for which 30 students from the ESA Member States and the Associate Member States were selected. Of these, 24 participated in the launch campaign which took place throughout the second week of October 2021 at the Andøya Space in Northern Norway. The Fly a Rocket! programme comprises an online pre-course with two assignments and a hands-on launch campaign. The pre-course is self-paced and aims to widen the participants’ understanding of basic rocket science topics such as the rocket principle, aerodynamics, and orbital mechanics in preparation for the campaign. During their stay at Andøya Space, the students were assigned to one of three teams, each with different responsibilities: Sensor Experiments, Telemetry and Data Readout, and Payload. As members of the Telemetry and Data Readout team, the authors’ role was to set up the student telemetry station and ensure that accurate data was collected from the sensors on the rocket. In addition, they were an integral part of the countdown procedure, operating two of the three telemetry stations used for the mission. Following the launch, all the teams worked in conjunction to analyse and present the data according to four previously defined scientific cases. This paper will be concerned with the activities carried out throughout Fly a Rocket! ’s third cycle, with a particular focus on the work done by the Telemetry and Data Readout team
Monte-Carlo Ray-Trace Modelling of Quantum Dot Solar Concentrators

Ray-trace modelling has been used to investigate the performance of luminescent solar concentrator (LSC) plates containing high quantum yield (QY) NIR emitting quantum dots (qd). Optical efficiencies and spectrally enhanced concentration ratios are compared to those of LSC plates containing green and orange emitting qds. Concentration ratios 2-5 times higher are predicted with the NIR emitting qds, partly due to the broader absorption range but more significantly due to lower re-absorption losses. The performance of the NIR plate is found to be similar to that predicted for a plate containing a single red Coumarin dye. For each luminescent species, the predicted optical efficiencies are higher for diffuse incidence than for direct incidence, as a higher fraction of the diffuse incident spectrum is within the absorption range.
Contextualized Recommendation of Aviation Ancillary Services Based on Passenger Portraits

Ancillary services are crucial to Chinese domestic airlines’ profits. Personalized recommendations for ancillary aviation services must consider massive amounts of contextualized online and offline data. The issue of sparsity is more serious in massive data, which makes traditional collaborative filtering (CF) algorithms less accurate. This article adds instant contextualized travel-related factors to the modeling of air passengers’ ancillary services, thus achieving dynamic recommendations. It also proposes a four-tuple to construct a contextual ontology as a conceptual model of ancillary aviation services. The article establishes a context-aware air passenger portrait model based on four tag sets, including passenger attribute tags, ancillary service attribute tags, passenger interaction behavior tags, and contextual attribute tags. Further, it proposes a multidimensional method for calculating contextual portrait similarity; the method recommends a list of the top-N items to the target passenger according to the similarity calculation. Compared with the traditional CF recommendation method, the proposed algorithm has better performance, improving the accuracy rate by 4.3% and the recall rate by 2.62%. The final experimental result demonstrates that the contextual recommendation method achieves higher passenger satisfaction, which can provide consolidated data and decision support for the management of aviation ancillary services.
Nonlinear Wave Forces on a Vertical Cylinder

The method of diffraction is applied to Stokes' fifth order gravity wave theory to obtain an expression for the velocity potential in the cylindrical polar coordinate system. Based on this expression, the dynamic pressure at the surface of a vertical cylinder and the total horizontal force on the cylinder in the direction of the wave propagation are determined. The wave force is written in an equivalent form of the inertial part of Morison's equation and the effective inertial coefficients are shown to be functions of a single dimensionless quantity. The different parameters involved are plotted or tabulated so that forces on a vertical cylinder due to a nonlinear wave up to fifth order may be easily evaluated. Correlation of the theory with the available experimental data was found to be reasonably good.

Estimation of the probability risks of African swine fever outbreaks using the maximum entropy method in North Sumatra Province, Indonesia

Background and Aim: African swine fever (ASF) is an infectious disease and a major viral pig disease that threatens pork production in several locations globally. The mortality rate of ASF in domestic pigs is very high, causing a decrease in pig populations and significant economic losses for farmers. Environmental or ecological risk factors are the most important associated with the spread of the ASF virus. Environmental (or ecological) niche models are commonly used to estimate the probability of an event using the maximum entropy (Maxent) method. This study aimed to estimate the probability risk of future ASF outbreaks in North Sumatra, Indonesia. Materials and Methods: Secondary data from the National Animal Health System Database (iSIKHNAS), including data on the ASF outbreaks of 2019–2020 in North Sumatra, Indonesia, were used in this study. The first analysis performed involved the identification of environmental risk factors using multiple regression analysis. The second analysis performed was the estimation of probability risk for future ASF outbreaks in North Sumatra, Indonesia, using the Maxent method. Data processing was performed using Microsoft Excel, ArcGIS version 10.5 software (ESRI, California, United States), Maxent version 3.4. 4 software, and Rstudio (http://www.r-project.org/). Results: The Maxent method was found to be highly accurate with a statistically significant area under the curve value of 0.860. The greatest contributing environmental factor identified by the model was the harbor, which contributed 57%. The range of high probability risk of future ASF outbreaks was found to be 0.723–0.84. Conclusion: The estimation of the highest probability risk of future ASF outbreaks in North Sumatra, Indonesia, was 0.723–0.84. The most contributing environmental factor identified using the Maxent method was harbors, at 57%. This methodology can be used to carry out subsequent ASF analyses and contribute to developing prevention and control strategies in this area.
A Cross-Sectional Study on Prevalence of Diabetic Retinopathy and Its Associated Factor among Diabetic Patients

Aim/Purpose: The purpose of this study is to assess the prevalence of diabetic retinopathy and its associated factors among diabetic patients at Goyal Eye Institute, New Delhi. Methodology: A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted among diabetic patients. A total of 345 (mean age: 47±2.53 years) participants- male=192 & female=153, were enrolled in this study. They were selected through systematic sampling procedure. Explanatory data were extracted from medical records and interviews. Blood pressure (BP), Blood sugar, weight, height, and visual acuity and refraction tests were assessed. Retinal examination was performed with a Forus (3nethra) fundus camera. All the collected data was processed and analysed by Chi-square test in SPSS version 21. Results: It was found that out of 345 subjects, 86 (24.9%) had Diabetic retinopathy (DR). Among the diabetic retinopathy patients, 68.4% had the pre-proliferative type. Five in ten (46.3%) of the patients had visual acuity problems and showing DR symptoms. Poor glycemic control (95% CI 1.46–2.41), > 10 years’ diabetes duration (95% CI 1.68–3.64), >20 years’ diabetes duration (95% CI 1.88–2.72), body-mass index >25 kg/m2 (95% CI 1.32–3.54), and hypertension (95% CI 1.44–2.62), smoking (95% CI 1.93-2.58) were factors significantly associated with diabetic retinopathy. All factors mentioned were found to be statistically significant (p<0.05) with the Pearson Chi-square in SPSS version 21. Conclusion: This study shows about a-fifth of diabetic patients had diabetic retinopathy. Risk factors of Diabetic retinopathy were significantly associated with poor glycemic control, hypertension, body-mass index (obesity), and duration or onset of illness. Routine blood sugar assessment as well as eye examination and early control of those associated factors may be important in reducing both the prevalence and impact of diabetic retinopathy.

Medial Frontal Theta Is Entrained To The Lick Cycle

Rodents lick to consume fluids. The reward value of ingested fluids is likely to be encoded by neuronal activity entrained to the lick cycle. Here, we investigated relationships between licking and reward signaling by the medial frontal cortex [MFC], a key cortical region for reward-guided learning and decision-making. Multi-electrode recordings of spike activity and field potentials were made in male rats as they performed an incentive contrast licking task. Rats received access to higher and lower value sucrose rewards over alternating 30 sec periods. They learned to lick persistently when higher value rewards were available and to suppress licking when lower value rewards were available. Spectral analysis of spikes and fields revealed evidence for reward value being encoded by the strength of phase-locking of a 6-12 Hz theta rhythm to the rats’ lick cycle. Recordings during the initial acquisition of the task found that the strength of phase-locking to the lick cycle was strengthened with experience. A modification of the task, with a temporal gap of 2 sec added between reward deliveries, found that the rhythmic signals persisted during periods of dry licking, a finding that suggests the MFC encodes either the value of the currently available reward or the vigor with which rats act to consume it. Finally, we found that reversible inactivations of the MFC in the opposite hemisphere eliminated the encoding of reward information. Together, our findings establish that a 6-12 Hz theta rhythm, generated by the rodent medial frontal cortex, is synchronized to the lick cycle. Significance Statement The cellular and behavioral mechanisms of reward signaling by the medial frontal cortex [MFC] have not been resolved. We report evidence for a 6-12 Hz theta rhythm that is generated by the MFC and synchronized with ongoing consummatory actions. Previous studies of MFC reward signaling have inferred value coding upon temporally sustained activity during the period of reward consumption. Our findings suggest that MFC activity is temporally sustained due to the consumption of the rewarding fluids, and not necessarily the abstract properties of the rewarding fluid. Two other major findings were that the MFC reward signals persist beyond the period of fluid delivery and are generated by neurons within the MFC.
