Design of Multi-Functional Transmitarray with Active Linear Polarization Conversion and Beam Steering Capabilities

: This study designed a multi-functional reconﬁgurable transmitarray with switchable polarization and beam steering capabilities using only a PIN diode having ON/OFF switching ability. The simulation conﬁrmed that the proposed architecture is capable of 2D beam scanning of up to ± 45 ◦ for elevation and azimuth while maintaining or converting linear polarization when operating within the X-band. The performance was veriﬁed through a far-ﬁeld beam pattern measurement using the near-ﬁeld antenna measurement system by producing a transmitarray with an 8 × 8 unit cell arrangement. The maximum level of gain of the proposed architecture was conﬁrmed to be 14.5 dBi, the sidelobe level was below 14.5 dBc, the polarization converting loss was below 1.28 dB, and the polarization isolation level was above 14.7 dB. It can be utilized for the design technique of a radar system demanding small size, weight, power, and cost (SWaP-C) characteristics based on a simpliﬁed composition.
The role of whey protein in myogenic differentiation

Whey protein has been shown to prevent exercise-induced protein degradation and muscle damage. We hypothesized that whey protein would regulate muscle cell differentiation. Adding various concentrations of whey protein to C2C12 myoblasts induced cell differentiation and MyoD (myogenic differentiation protein) expression as well as the phosphorylation of AKT (protein kinase B). Whey protein-induced differentiation-specific markers increased the enzymatic activities of creatine kinase and citrate synthase and the expression of muscle-specific microRNA. Whey protein elevated AKT phosphorylation on Thr308 and Ser473, which was inhibited by LY294002 (a non-selective phosphoinositide 3-kinases inhibitor), suggesting that whey protein acts via PI3K (phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase). Blocking of the PI3K/AKT pathway with specific inhibitors revealed its requirement in mediating the promotive effects of whey protein on C2C12 cell differentiation. These effects of whey protein on myoblast differentiation suggest its positive influence in preventing muscle atrophy.

Assessment of insects diversity with the influence of industrial pollutants in agricultural zones of District Sialkot, Pakistan

Abstract. Asghar A, Qadeer O, Mushtaq S, Maalik S, Majeed W, Bano N, Nargis S. 2022. Assessment of insects diversity with the influence of industrial pollutants in agricultural zones of District Sialkot, Pakistan. Biodiversitas 23: 2047-2053. Insects are the most important creatures on earth due to their multifunctional role in the environment by providing different services such as biological indicators, decomposers, pollinators, scavengers, pests, and predators agroecosystem. However, with time due to anthropogenic activities such as environmental pollution, industrial waste, and the use of effluents for agriculture, insect fauna has been facing a dramatic threat to their diversity, particularly in most polluted areas. The present study was designed to find insects diversity variation under polluted environments (heavy metals) in agriculture fields having brassica and Rice crops. Two different sites, the tannery and non-tannery areas were selected to sample insects. The total number of insects found in tannery area fields were 2195 and 3753 from the non-tannery area. The abundance of Melanoplus bivittatus (Say, 1825) was highest in the non-tannery area, and Acrida exaltata (Walker, 1859) was highest in tannery area fields. From the tannery area and non-tannery area, the maximum abundance of 32% and 37% were found for order orthoptera. The cadmium concentration in tannery rice crops was 0.626 ppm, and brassica concentration was 0.315 ppm. The cadmium concentration in non-tannery area samples was 0.115 ppm for rice and 0.101 ppm for brassica plants, while 0.1231 ppm for rice and 0.104 ppm for brassica insects. The lead concentration in tannery areas of rice crops was 0.637 ppm, and brassica concentration was 0.672 ppm. The lead concentration in non-tannery area samples was 0.324 ppm for rice and 0.267 ppm for brassica plants, while 0.214 ppm for rice and 0.266 ppm for brassica insects. The diversity and richness were recorded at 3.11 and 3.525 for rice and 3.124 and 3.913 for brassica fields. The species maximum was seen in the non-tannery area, and less abundance was recorded in the tannery area. It is further suggested that preventive measures should be taken to protect insect diversity from balancing nature's ecological balance.
Clinical Patterns and Risk Factors for Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease in Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease in Upper Egypt

Background: Most studies agreed that patients with inflammatory bowel disease are more likely to develop non-alcoholic fatty liver disease because of the presence of chronic infections, toxic drugs and altered gut microbiota. Objectives: To evaluate and estimate the relationship between NAFLD and IBD and to discover the most important causes and risk factors among IBD patients. Patients and methods: The study was done on a sample of (200) Egyptian cases diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease. The criteria for including patients in this study included proving the disease through clinical examination, laboratory tests, imaging, and performing all necessary examinations for patients within this study. Patients with chronic viral hepatitis (B and C) as well as patients with hepatocellular carcinoma and all other liver diseases were excluded from this study because they affect the measure of liver stiffness.

The prevalence of NAFLD between IBD patients was 36%. The mean liver stiffness measurement (LSM) of patients was 6.8 ± 3.6 , the mean controlled attenuation parameter (CAP) was 223.5 ± 67.9. Risk factors responsible for the occurrence of NAFLD between IBD patients included DM, Insulin resistance, high anthropometric findings and dyslipidemia. Conclusion factors for occurrence of NAFLD between IBD patients.
THE EFFECT OF MODIFY NaOH CONCENTRATION ON THE STRUCTURE AND MAGNETIC PROPERTIES IN CO-PRECIPITATED NANOCRYSTALLINE BISMUTH SUBSTITUTED COBALT FERRITE

The structural and magnetic properties modification in the bismuth substituted cobalt ferrite nanopowder with various molar concentrations of NaOH has been successfully synthesized by the coprecipitation method. The crystalline structure was measured using X-ray diffraction (XRD), bond groups, and absorption strength was measured by Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) studies, and then magnetic properties were measured using a Vibrating Scanning Magnetometer (VSM). The XRD measurement results confirmed that the whole samples of bismuth cobalt ferrite owing single phase of inverse spinel face cubic center (fcc) with space group Fd-3m were obtained for variations in molar concentration of NaOH. The FTIR measurements obtained that the absorption characteristic in the frequency band 400 - 750 cm-1 according to resonance at octahedral and tetrahedral sites of the occurrence metal oxide. The VSM measurement showed that the magnetic properties of bismuth substituted cobalt ferrite available to tune with modifying NaOH concentration in the co-precipitation procedure. Thus, the effect of increasing the concentration of NaOH into bismuth-substituted cobalt ferrite can change the characteristics of the cobalt ferrite such as lattice parameters, shifts in the absorption peaks of functional groups, and changes in magnetic saturation. The significance of this research is to know the exact concentration value of bismuth substituted cobalt ferrite to obtain the best characteristics.
Cumulative Impacts of Endodontic Procedures on Enterococcus Faecalis: An In Vitro Study

Objectives: Assessment of the cumulative impacts of endodontic procedures using novel BioAKT Endo root canal irrigant on Enterococcus faecalis in comparison with sodium hypochlorite irrigant. Materials and Methods: Eighty single rooted premolar teeth were collected for this study. The crowns were sectioned and the length of the roots was standardized to 15 mm. The roots were then initially cleaned, shaped, and inoculated with E. faecalis. The excess broth was removed by sterile paper points and then sample 1 (S1) was taken. The roots were divided into eight groups, groups 1-4 were instrumented and irrigated with BioAKT Endo root canal irrigant then sample 2 (S2) was taken. Groups 5-8 were instrumented and irrigated with 5.25% NaOCl. Standard laboratory methods were followed to determine the number of CFU for the tested organism. Data were collected and analyzed. A specimen from each group was randomly selected and investigated under scanning electron microscope (SEM) to evaluate the bacterial contamination on the root canal walls initially and after the endodontic procedures. Results: Marked bacterial reduction was detected in all groups after instrumentation and irrigation with BioAKT Endo or 5.25%NaOCl, however NaOCl groups were superior to BioAKT Endo groups. The maximum bacterial reduction was achieved in group 5 followed by 7, 6, 8,1,3,2, and 4 in descending order. Scanning electron microscopic evaluation confirmed the final microbial results. Conclusions: BioAKT Endo is considered a novel irrigant material for root canals with a marked and promising anti-bacterial activity. Further in-vivo and in-vitro studies are required to investigate this class of endodontic irrigants.
Ouabain Enhances Cell-Cell Adhesion Mediated by beta1 Subunits Ouabain Enhances Cell-Cell Adhesion Mediated by beta1 Subunits of the Na(+),K(+)-ATPase in CHO Fibroblasts of the Na(+),K(+)-ATPase in CHO Fibroblasts

: Adhesion is a crucial characteristic of epithelial cells to form barriers to pathogens and toxic substances from the environment. Epithelial cells attach to each other using intercellular junctions on the lateral membrane, including tight and adherent junctions, as well as the Na + ,K + -ATPase. Our group has shown that non-adherent chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells transfected with the canine β 1 subunit become adhesive, and those homotypic interactions amongst β 1 subunits of the Na + ,K + -ATPase occur between neighboring epithelial cells. Ouabain, a cardiotonic steroid, binds to the α subunit of the Na + ,K + -ATPase, inhibits the pump activity and induces the detachment of epithelial cells when used at concentrations above 300 nM. At nanomolar non-inhibiting concentrations, ouabain a ﬀ ects the adhesive properties of epithelial cells by inducing the expression of cell adhesion molecules through the activation of signaling pathways associated with the α subunit. In this study, we investigated whether the adhesion between β 1 subunits was also a ﬀ ected by ouabain. We used CHO ﬁbroblasts stably expressing the β 1 subunit of the Na + ,K + -ATPase (CHO β 1 ), and studied the e ﬀ ect of ouabain on cell adhesion. Aggregation assays showed that ouabain increased the adhesion between CHO β 1 cells. Immunoﬂuorescence and biotinylation assays showed that ouabain (50 nM) increases the expression of the β 1 subunit of the Na + ,K + -ATPase at the cell membrane. We also examined the e ﬀ ect of ouabain on the activation of signaling pathways in CHO β 1 cells, and their subsequent e ﬀ ect on cell adhesion. We found that cSrc is activated by ouabain and, therefore, that it likely regulates the adhesive properties of CHO β 1 cells. Collectively, our ﬁndings suggest that the β 1 subunit adhesion is modulated by the expression levels of the Na + ,K + -ATPase at the plasma membrane, which is regulated by ouabain. β 1 subunits, and showed that the cell CHO β 1 cells - β 1 of than in non-treated On the other with high concentration of µ cell-cell cell-adhesion low increase in 1 1
The Diverse Shapes of Dwarf Planet and Large KBO Phase Curves Observed from New Horizons

Observing dwarf planets and other large Kuiper Belt objects (KBOs) from vantage points between 8 and 47 au from the Sun, NASA’s New Horizons spacecraft has found diversity in the shapes of their solar phase curves. Here we extend solar phase angle coverage of dwarf planets (136199) Eris, (136472) Makemake, and (136108) Haumea; large KBOs (28978) Ixion, (50000) Quaoar, (307261) 2002 MS4, and (556416) 2014 OE394; and Neptune’s satellite Triton to phase angles as high as α = 94° using New Horizons data and fit the resulting solar phase curves to the Hapke photometric model. When accounting for sparse α sampling, these fits yield large uncertainties in the Hapke parameters; however, opposition effect parameters are generally well constrained and suggest a significant range of regolith maturation ages among these bodies. The expanded range in α enables evaluation of Bond albedos, phase integrals, rotation curves at high α, and comparisons of the surface scattering properties of these objects with those of others in the solar system. The dwarf planets with surface compositions dominated by hypervolatiles, Eris and Makemake, and Triton (a likely former KBO) have shallower solar phase curve slopes (i.e., lower phase coefficients, higher phase integrals, and Bond albedos) than objects with volatile-poor surfaces. The total amplitude of Haumea’s rotation curve at α = 48° is Δm = 0.6 ± 0.2 mag, nearly twice that of its rotation curve measured from Earth at low phase angles. Bond albedos range from 0.037 ± 0.007 for Ixion to 0.99−0.09+0.01 for Eris.
The effect of post harvest handling on selected native food plants

A commercial issue currently facing native plant food producers and food processors, and identified by the industry itself, is that of delivering quality products consistently and at reasonable cost to end users based on a sound food technology and nutrition platform. A literature survey carried out in July 2001 by the DPI&F’s Centre for Food Technology, Brisbane in collaboration with the University of Queensland to collect the latest information at that time on the functional food market as it pertained to native food plants, indicated that little or no work had been published on this topic. This project addresses two key RIRDC sub program strategies: to identify and evaluate processes or products with prospects of commercial viability and to assist in the development of integrated production, harvesting, processing and marketing systems. This project proposal also reflects a key RIRDC RD that of linking with prospective members of the value chain. The purpose of this project was to obtain chemical data on the post harvest stability of functional nutritional components (bio actives) in commercially available, hand harvested bush tomato and Kakadu plum. The project concentrated on evaluating bioactive stability as a measure of ingredient quality.
ANALYSIS OF GUIDANCE AND CONTROL LAWS FOR ORBITING MULTIBODY MANIPULATORS

The high risk and cost of manned missions calls for a renovated interest in automatic missions and in space robotics. The analysis of guidance and control performance of space manipulators needs an intensive campaign of numerical simulations carried out by means of a suitable mathematical model, taking into account different forces such as gravity and gravity gradient, elastic forces, possibly the air drag and of course the inertial forces. The model should allow for an efficient solution of the inverse kinematics, exploited to attain a desired final state. At the same time, the model should preserve the correctness of the solution which is seriously affected in the specific case by numerical problems, due to the different scales of the phenomena occurring: gravity, related to the orbital radius; gravity gradient, related to the manipulator overall dimensions; and flexibility, related to the characteristics of each link. The paper, after a short recall of a proper dynamic model of a multi-body system solving these numerical issues, will investigate in detail the GNC loop architecture. The working scheme is based on the subdivision of the proposed mission in a number of operational phases, each one characterized by different issues. For example, the deployment of the robotic arm and the recovery of the target load is accomplished via a path planning optimization algorithm for the evaluation of the reference motion, realized by means of two possible control laws, i.e. the classical proportional derivative controller and the feedback linearization technique. The grasping or docking phase requires instead the online measurements of the relative distance between end effector and target. The performances of the GNC loop are assessed in terms of the accuracy of the final state achieved, of the time required to complete the maneuver and of the power consumption needed by the actuators. Several simulations are presented in the paper for different cases, all of them supposing a Low Earth Orbit maneuver.

Analyses of Maxims and Proposal of Automatic Creation System for Heart-touching Encouraging Sentences

In this paper, first, analyses of many maxims are carried out to obtain knowledge for heart-touching phrases. Next, a creation system for heart-touching encouraging sentences is proposed using these findings. As for analyses, we collected 1,830 maxims because heart-touching phrases have a large effect on healing and encouragement. As a result, some interesting findings could be obtained such that positive and sentimental words are often used in heart-touching sentences. Contrast and emphatic sentences also tend to contribute to impressive expressions. The proposed system utilizes these findings to create heart-touching encouraging sentences. We performed evaluation experiments. We compared the sentences created by the proposed system with sentences created by humans. Many output sentences received evaluation values close to those created by humans.

Early and late ANCA vasculitis relapses after kidney transplantation may have different presentations

Anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody associated vasculitis (AAV) recurrence in kidney allografts is estimated at 0.1/patient/year, decreasing recently probably due to evolution in immunosuppression regimens [1]. Renal and extra renal recurrences are described, occurring in a median time of 30 months [2]. In our institution, 59 kidney transplants were performed for AAV recipients and among them 7 experienced recurrences, representing 12% of patients (Table 1). Four early recurrences (three patients) occurred immediately, presenting as primary non-function associated with extra renal symptoms. ANCA was highly positive in all cases at the time of transplanta-tion.Transplantbiopsiesrevealedcrescenticandproliferativele- sions requiring supplementary immunosuppressive treatment. Of four cases, three progressed towards end-stage renal disease (ESRD) at 3 months post-transplantation and all patients con-tracted fungal infections. Three patients suffered late recurrences and these occurred several years after transplantation. The first case was a 58-year-old
