Forensic Law in Hypoglycaemia-3
Authors: Beatty Derek C , Yap Christina G
Published: August 2023

“Environmental Enrichment” (EE) is a proven alternative therapy for Type 2 diabetes related complications. EE preserves the Purkinje cells in the brain. The latter is a promising therapy for prevention of diabetes related mental disorders. Sensory nerves are at higher risk of damage in the hyperglycemic milieu leading to diabetic neuropathy. Patients lose sensation in their lower extremities making them vulnerable to injury because they do not feel the pain, which is a warning sign of tissue damage. That can lead to catastrophic outcomes because with high blood glucose, wounds get difficult to heal. Gas gangrene and tissue necrosis develop, leading to the only resort being amputation and life change challenge. Early diagnosis of diabetes is nevertheless crucial in prolonging the onset of diabetes and its complication. To date many candidate early biomolecules have been reported which are promising early indicators for diabetes. However, advancement in this field of research has not been reported. Holistically diet, lifestyle, mental health and clinical treatment of Diabetes and Thyroid Disease, including Addison’s Disease, plays an important role in patient welfare. Tragically many patients die young or go through life suffering from the old Victorian Stigma of being tainted by having to treat an uncurable illness. This is not a joke as suggested in September 2006 in ignorance by a Hertfordshire Insurance Broker describing Diabetes with Neuroglycopenia as a Joke and Nonsense. This caused Obstructed Justice in Law of a critical life-threatening complication of Diabetes and Endocrinology Disease in Hypoglycaemia Unawareness and now in 2023 Otitis Externa and Osteomyelitis as disclosed in a tragic young law student death with likely clinically undiagnosed Otitis Externa and Osteomyelitis. A patient requiring clinician prescribed Insulin justifies clinical respect and understanding in English Law which has been misunderstood since 1994 with sad consequences in this investigation. Today in recovering and managing the COVID-19 Pandemic of 2020 we move forward with new welfare ideas. It is a delight to be able to share some latest work for future research based on 44 years T1 Diabetes experience complimented by Purkinje Cell environmental welfare.

Authors: Saraswathi J. M. , Muthukumaran N.
Published: August 2023

Two bhendi accessions were screened for the induction of resistance by seed treatment with agriculturally beneficial microorganisms like Azospirillum, Phosphobacteria and K-solubilizer against whitefly, Bemisia tabaci (Genn.) at the Department of Entomology, Faculty of Agriculture, Annamalai University. Accession Salem Local along with Arka Anamika was screened with different agriculturally beneficial microorganisms under field condition. The nymphal population of whitefly was recorded during two (Rabi and Kharif) seasons of 2022. Among the treatments, the accession Salem Local treated with K- solubilizer recorded the lowest nymphal population followed by the treatment, Azospirillum + Phosphobacteria + K-solubilizer.  Whereas the maximum nymphal population was observed in Arka Anamika treated with Azospirillum with the mean nymphal population of 3.32 and 3.65 in the Rabi and Kharif seasons respectively. Hence, the accessions following seed treatment that conferred resistance against whitefly were selected for breeding in order to develop whitefly resistant varieties.
Bio-Inspired Camera Mimicking the Structural and Functional
Features of Biological Vision
Authors: Hwang Joonha , Choi Changsoon
Published: August 2023

Conventional imaging and data processing devices may not be ideal for mobile
machine vision applications, such as drones and robots, due to the bulky and
heavy multi-lens optics used in conventional cameras. Additionally, physical
isolation of camera and processors necessitates the capture, transfer, and
processing of redundant data, resulting in large power consumption and data
latency. Here, we review on bio-inspired cameras inspired by the structural and
functional features of biological eyes. We first summarize recent strategies to
fabricate curved image sensor (CurvIS) arrays mimicking the curved retina of
biological eyes. These CurvIS arrays enable aberration-free imaging with a
single lens optics, leading to a miniaturization of camera module. Other optical
advantages, such as wide field-of-view and deep depth-of-field, could be also
offered by the integrated camera module. Next, we discuss bio-inspired cameras
capable of performing in-sensor processing as well as image acquisition. As
notable examples, we introduce synaptic optoelectronic devices that can
efficiently enhance image contrast and reduce the noise using photon-triggered
synaptic plasticity.
Analysis of Nanoparticle-Embedded-Resin Printing Conditions for
High-Aspect-Ratio Metasurfaces
Authors: Oh Dong Kyo , Jeon Nara , Ok Jong G. , Rho Junsuk
Published: August 2023

Metasurfaces, composed of periodic nanostructures, have been attractive because
of their extraordinary modulation of light propagation. However, conventional
electron-beam lithography to fabricate metasurfaces is time-consuming and
costly, which prevents commercialization of functional metasurfaces. We
investigate nanoimprint lithography-based technique for single-step fabrication
of metasurfaces. A high-refractive-index material is granulated and mixed with
nanoimprint resin. This mixture results in higher effective refractive index,
and thus can be utilized to directly fabricate metasurfaces. Besides, diverse
processing conditions are investigated such as swelling effect for the
successful replication of high-aspect-ratio nanostructures. Finally, we verify
the optimized nanoparticle-embedded resin printing process through the
replication of metasurfaces with various dimensions and an optimal design.
Are the Covid-19 Pandemic and Public Procurement ‘Strange Bedfellows’? An African Perspective
Authors: Ismail Abdi Changalima
Published: August 2023

The purpose of this article is to provide insights into how the Covid-19 pandemic has affected public procurement operations, and the role of public procurement during the pandemic. The article synthesises relevant literature on Covid-19 and public procurement in the African context. A review of literature from 2020 to 2022 was done to enrich the findings of the current article, which shows that the Covid-19 pandemic affected public procurement in the form of delays, malpractice, budget reallocations and supply disruptions. Furthermore, during the Covid-19 pandemic it was recommended that public procurement practices be more strategic through collaboration, and respond more quickly in obtaining vaccines and health supplies, which were critical in the prevention and treatment of related illnesses. The article provides several practical implications in terms of ensuring good governance, implementing regulatory frameworks for emergency procurement, improving collaboration among members of comparable regional organisations, and implementing Covid-19 preventative measures. Finally, because the current study’s scope is limited in terms of the selection of published articles and other relevant literature that give insights about the African continent during this period, future studies could be conducted to include literature from outside the African continent in order to broaden the scope of this current study.

Authors: Boonkum Wuttigrai , Chankitisakul Vibuntita , Kananit Srinuan , Kenchaiwong Wootichai
Published: August 2023

Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of heat stress on the growth traits and genetic parameters of Thai native chickens.Methods: A total of 16,487 records for growth traits of Thai native chickens between 2017 and 2022 were used in this study. Data included the body weight at birth, body weight at 4, 8, and 12 weeks of age (BW0, BW4, BW8, BW12), average daily gain during 0 to 4, 4 to 8, and 8 to 12 weeks of age (ADG0-4, ADG4-8, ADG8-12), absolute growth rate at birth, at 4, 8, and 12 weeks of age (AGR0, AGR4, AGR8, AGR12). The repeatability test day model used the reaction-norm procedure to analyze the threshold point of heat stress, rate of decline of growth traits, and genetic parameters.Results: At temperature and humidity index (THI) of 76, Thai native chickens began to lose their growth traits, which was the onset of heat stress in this study. The estimated heritability, genetic correlation between animal and heat stress effect, and correlations between the intercept and slope of the permanent environmental effects were 0.27, –0.85, and –0.83 for BW, 0.17, –0.81, and –0.95 for ADG, 0.25, –0.61, and –0.83 for AGR, respectively. Male chickens are more affected by heat stress than female chickens with a greater reduction of BW, ADG, and AGR, values equal to –9.30, –0.23, –15.21 (in males) and –6.04, –0.21, –10.10 (in females) gram per 1 level increase of THI from the THI of 76.Conclusion: The influence of thermal stress had a strong effect on the decline in growth traits and genetic parameters in Thai native chickens. This study indicated that genetic models used in conjunction with THI data are an effective method for the analysis and assessment of the effects of heat stress on the growth traits and genetics of native chickens.

Published: August 2023

Objective: A study was conducted to determine the chemical composition of barley and co-products from barley, corn, and wheat produced in South-East Asia or Australia, and to test the hypothesis that production area or production methods can impact the chemical composition of wheat co-products.Methods: Samples included seven barley grains, two malt barley rootlets, one corn gluten feed, one corn gluten meal, one corn bran, eight wheat brans, one wheat mill mix, and four wheat pollards. All samples were analyzed for dry matter, gross energy, nitrogen, amino acids (AA), acid hydrolyzed ether extract, ash, minerals, starch, and insoluble dietary fiber and soluble dietary fiber. Malt barley rootlets and wheat co-products were also analyzed for sugars.Results: Chemical composition of barley, malt barley rootlets, and corn co-products were in general similar across countries. Wheat pollard had greater (p<0.05) concentrations of tryptophan, magnesium, and potassium compared with wheat bran, whereas wheat bran had greater (p<0.05) concentration of copper than wheat pollard. There were no differences in chemical composition between wheat bran produced in Australia and wheat bran produced in Thailand.Conclusion: Intact barley contains more starch, but fewer AA, than grain co-products. There were only few differences in the composition of wheat bran and wheat pollard, indicating that the two ingredients are similar, but with different names. However, corn gluten meal contains more protein and less fiber than corn bran.

Psychiatric approach to tinnitus
Authors: Đuričić Vanja , Kordić Valentin , Mišković Antonija , Ivanušić Pejić Josipa , Jukić Melita , Degmečić Dunja
Published: August 2023

Tinnitus is a symptom with a significant incidence in the general population, usually of unclear etiology, that can cause serious difficulties in people's daily functioning, significantly impair the quality of life, and have a negative impact on mental health. The paper aims to present a brief overview of current knowledge about this frequent and unpleasant phenomenon, including epidemiology, etiology, clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment. The paper highlights contemporary theories of tinnitus that link damage to the peripheral organ of hearing and the consequent neuronal changes involved in the subjective experience, which are the target sites for treating psychological disorders associated with tinnitus. The psychiatric approach to tinnitus is aimed not so much at reducing the sound intensity as at reducing the negative experience of this phenomenon and preventing the development or worsening of existing psychological disorders. The results of previous researches indicate numerous therapeutic options for treating tinnitus, including drugs, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and neuromodulation techniques with promising results.

Effects of the Growth Rate on the High-temperature Tensile Properties and Micro-organization of Directionally Solidified Ti-44Al-9Nb-1Cr-0.2W-0.2Y Alloys
Authors: HUANG Yao , JIANG Zhuhang , HAN Renheng , ZHAO Chengzhi , ZHANG Hexin
Published: August 2023

In this experiment, Ti-44Al-9Nb-1Cr-0.2W-0.2Y alloy was prepared by the directional solidification method. The effect of different growth rates on tensile properties and microstructure orientation at high temperature was studied. Three kinds of alloys with different growth rates of 10 μm/s, 15 μm/s and 20 μm/s were prepared. The results show that the tensile properties of the alloy at 800 ℃ decrease with increasing growth rate, and recrystallization occurred at the position of intracrystal fracture in the microstructure. The size of columnar crystals decreases with the increase of the growth rate, increasing the number of grains and decreasing the orientation difference between the growth and axial directions as well as the preferred orientation of lamellar, and the anisotropy of the material, which leads to the obvious decrease of the tensile strength and plasticity. Combined with electron backscattering diffraction test results, the lamellar orientation of the effective parts of the three specimens after high temperature stretching was studied. It was found that the axial preferred orientation of the alloy specimens decreased obviously with the increase of the growth rate, and the orientation became disorderly and the uniformity of lamellar thickness decreased gradually with the increase of the growth rate. In addition, it was found that a new single-phase γ phase is formed in the microstructure after high temperature stretching, and the distribution range increased with the increase of the growth rate, which seriously degraded the axial preferred orientation of the alloy. It can be concluded that the directionally solidified alloy with a growth rate of 10 μm/s has better microstructure orientation and high temperature tensile properties.

Published: August 2023

Hak cipta sebuah karya buku terjemahan tidak saja melindungi penulis sebagai pencipta, melainkan juga pada penerjemah sebagai orang yang melakukan alih bahasa atas karya penulis. Dalam pelaksanaannya, penerjemah belum mendapat pelindungan hukum yang sesuai berdasarkan peraturan perundang-undangan. Tidak pernah ada klausula hak cipta penerjemah dalam kontrak merupakan salah satu bentuk pelanggaran yang terjadi. Perlunya pelindungan hukum atas hak cipta ini, agar ada pengakuan terhadap hak moral dan hak ekonomi yang akan didapat oleh pencipta dari hasil ciptaannya, sehingga dapat mencegah kerugian dari pihak yang tidak bertanggung jawab. Berdasarkan latar belakang di atas penulis mengangkat rumusan masalah tentang bagaimana pengaturan hukum dan eksistensi penerjemah buku di Indonesia dalam pemenuhan pelindungan hak cipta atas karya terjemahannya? Dan bagaimana upaya pelindungan hak cipta penerjemah buku di Indonesia berkaitan dengan karya terjemahannya?  Metode penelitian menggunakan jenis penelitian yuridis normatif. dengan pendekatan perundang-undangan dan kasus. Teknik pengumpulan bahan hukum dilakukan dengan cara wawancara dan studi kepustakaan, sedangkan analisis bahan hukum dilakukan dengan cara melakukan penafsiran hukum (interpretasi) yaitu penafsiran sistematis dan teleologis.  Hasil penelitian pertama, Dalam peraturan perundang-undangan seperti Konvensi Bern dan Undang-Undang Nomor 28 Tahun 2014 tentang Hak Cipta telah mengakui karya terjemahan sebagai karya yang dilindungi hak cipta, yang merupakan karya turunan (derivative works). Meskipun tidak disebutkan secara eksplisit, penerjemah sebagai pencipta karya terjemahan mendapat pelindungan berupa hak moral dan hak ekonomi, tapi kedudukannya tidak sama dengan pencipta karya aslinya karena karya penerjemah merupakan karya turunan. Kedua, dalam peraturan perundang-undangan maupun dalam praktik penerbitan karya terjemahan karya penerjemah buku, penerjemah belum mendapat pelindungan hukum dan kepastian hukum. Tidak ada ketentuan tegas berapa hak ekonomi yang adil bagi penerjemah dan mekanisme pemberian hak ekonomi yang pasti.

Anstoss dieses Beitrags ist ein Artikel der Herausgeberin zum selben Thema, der während der Kinderjahre des Internets vor über zwanzig Jahren in der Anwaltsrevue erschienen ist. Paradoxerweise hat sich seither vieles und zugleich weniges geändert. Geändert haben sich die Zahl und Anerkennung von hybrid bzw. ausschliesslich online verfügbaren juristischen Quellen. Hinzu kommen neue Entwicklungen, wie etwa die Generierung von Texten mithilfe des Chatbots ChatGPT. Unverändert ist hingegen der Umstand, dass Internetquellen bisweilen kritisch betrachtet werden hinsichtlich ihrer Zuverlässigkeit. Ferner bestehen nach wie vor Unsicherheiten mit Blick auf die Zitierweise von Internetquellen. Für den vorliegenden Beitrag werden deshalb verschiedene Zitiervorgaben untersucht und begründete Vorschläge für eine adäquate Zitierweise entwickelt. Zudem werden Vorschläge für die Kennzeichnung von Erzeugnissen künstlicher Intelligenzen gemacht.
Navigating the Impact of Artificial Intelligence on Scholarly Authorship: Transparency and Responsibility in the Technological Era
Authors: Şahin Şamil , Erkmen Burak
Published: August 2023

Dear Editors,
We are writing in response to your recent editorials regarding the captivating subject of employing artificial intelligence (AI) in the composition of scholarly documents, with a specific focus on the notion of co-authoring with artificial intelligence [1,2]. We would like to express my appreciation to the European Journal of Therapeutics for its diligent commitment to upholding the ethical standards and academic integrity of scholarly publications. In the context of the swiftly progressing technological era, it is important to exercise caution in the utilization of AI in order to uphold our established academic and scientific customs. We concur with the perspective that the incorporation of AI in the production of scholarly papers ought to be explicitly disclosed within the methodology section, in light of its escalating significance in the composition procedure. Ensuring transparency is crucial, as it facilitates a comprehensive understanding of the impact that AI may have on output, including both good and negative implications [3].
Nevertheless, while we acknowledge the utility of AI, we respectfully hold a dissenting viewpoint about the proposition of attributing co-authorship to an AI system such as ChatGPT. The act of being an author entails a level of responsibility that beyond the capabilities of even the most capable AI tool. The AI system lacks the ability to comprehend, analyze, or morally assess the subtleties inherent in the work it contributed to, therefore cannot be held responsible for the accuracy and implications of the work produced. AI serves as a valuable tool for researchers, enhancing both their efficiency and the overall quality of their work [4]. Sophisticated laboratory equipment and complicated statistical software are not regarded as co-authors. The same logic applies to AI. The recognition of AI's significance in academia is crucial, but only to the extent of AI's essence and constraints. A tool serves as a supplementary resource to expedite and enhance the processes of research and writing, although it should not be regarded as an autonomous contributor.
As the dialogue around this topic continues to evolve, we look forward to seeing how international organizations such as ICMJE and COPE will adapt to this development [5]. With their solid criteria and careful tuning, they can guide us towards a future where we use AI effectively and ethically. Thank you for initiating this important conversation.
Sincerely yours,
Identifying Factors Influencing Time and Cost Overruns in Public Construction Projects in Bhutan

Construction industries worldwide are impacted by time and cost overruns, resulting in significant financial loss and failure to complete projects on time. Clients, contractors, and consultants can plan properly for public construction projects if they have a better understanding of cost and time overruns. The Construction Development Board (now Bhutan Construction and Transport Authority) is the lead agency regulating and overseeing the government construction projects in Bhutan. However, in recent four years, from July 2017 to June 2021, about 50% of the total 2111 government construction projects experienced time and cost overruns, and the total financial loss was Nu. 2,578.86 million. Therefore, study was designed to examine the factors causing delays and cost escalations in the construction project implemented by government during the financial year July 2017 to June 2021. Thus, this study explores identifying factors influencing time and cost overruns to avoid time delays and financial losses. The primary data was collected through the questionnaire survey from engineers of 20 Dzongkhags and 4 Thromdes. The secondary data was collected from the CDB's annual reports, the Construction Association of Bhutan (CAB), and the National Statistics Bureau (NSB). The data was analyzed using the descriptive statistics method, and the relative importance index (RII) was calculated to rank the factors identified from literature reviews. The research results show that financial issue was the critical factor causing delays and cost escalation in the government construction project in Bhutan. Followed by the issue of delays and cost overruns due to shortage of local construction materials, inadequate experience of the contractor, poor site planning, shortage of skilled workers, unrealistic schedule, design change, contractual issues, and project manager competence.

The objectives of the present study were to investigate heavy metal (Cd, Cr, Mn and Pb) accumulation in Cabbage (Brassica oleracea L.) and Lettuce (Lactuca sativa) vegetable samples, which were freshly harvested within 7 different vegetable farm location grown around Barkin Ladi LGA of Plateau State, Nigeria. Heavy Metals concentrations in the vegetable samples were analyzed using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (Bulk Scientific Model 210 VGP). Concentration of Chromium in Cabbage ranged from0.32mg/kg - 0.05mg/kg and Lettuce was between 0.23mg/kg-0.04mg/kg. Cadmium level of vegetables from the analysis of Cabbage ranged between 0.65mg/kg - 0.15mg/kg, and Lettuce was between 0.60mg/kg-0.13mg/kg. Mn level of vegetables from the analysis of Cabbage ranged between 0.37mg/kg-0.04mg/kg and the range for Lettuce was between 0.45mg/kg-0.10mg/kg. Pb level of vegetables from these the analysis of Cabbage ranged between 0.35mg/kg-0.08mg/kg and the range for Lettuce was between 0.51mg/kg-0.05mg/kg. The calculated mean and standard deviation for Cabbage sample for Cd, Cr, Mn and Pb were 0.353±0.162, 0.144±0.066, 0.165±0.087 and 0.156±0.075 respectively, while Lettuce samples were 0,327±0.140, 0.119±0.062, 0.258±0.095 and 0.2300.122 respectively. In general, the concentration trends of heavy metal investigated were on the order Cd ? Mn ? Pb ? Cr in all the sample matrices of both vegetables. Risk analysis parameters for both sample matrices computed using standard methods for both adult and children were HRI, HQ, DIM, EDIM, MPI.
