Authors: Sukarno Theodora , Suryawan I Wayan Bikin , Sucipta Anak Agung Made
Published: July 2023

Background: Severe pneumonia dan anemia happened to many children under five years old. Anemia leads to hypercapnia and slowing down red blood cell maturation and facilitate ischaemic syndrome. In the other side, pneumonia may increase hepcidin that suppressed erythropoiesis, hence anemia could worsen pneumonia. The aim of this research is to find association of hemoglobin level and severe pneumonia under five years old.

Methods: Cross sectional study was done in medical record RSUD Wangaya Denpasar starting from May-August 2022. Data was taken from subject with severe and mild and moderate pneumonia age 6-59 months old that admitted to PICU and Kaswari ward from January 2020-June 2022. Variables processed in this study are gender, pneumonia severity, hemoglobin level, and length of stay

Result: This study admits 56 subjects that fulfilled inclusion and exclusion criteria. Boy and girls subjects are found equally (28 subjects equally in both groups). Severe pneumonia found in 18 (32.1%) subjects and 25 subjects (44.6%) has anemia. Length of stay for severe pneumonia is 4.83 ± 1.54 days. Hemoglobin level in severe pneumonia is 10.93±1,96 mg/dL and subjects with mild and moderate pneumonia is 11.69 ±1.41 mg/dL. The result of chi-square test between haemoglobin level and severe pneumonia is p= 0.26

Conclusions: This study shows that there is no correlation between hemoglobin level and severe pneumonia. Further study is needed since the correlation between them is still controversial.

Research progress on the role of PGC1α in mitochondrial dysfunction associated with Alzheimer’s disease
Authors: Li Zhi-Qiang , Lin Han-Sheng , Huang Xiao-Ping , Zhang Shen-Qing Yu , Shu Xiao , Wu Xi-Nan
Published: July 2023

The transcriptional coactivator Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor Gamma Coactivator 1-alpha (PGC1α) holds significant importance in the regulation of mitochondrial function during the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). PGC1α is highly expressed in the brain and has the ability to upregulate mitochondrial biogenesis. It modulates various metabolic pathways, such as the β-oxidation of fatty acids, which is important for generating ATP, and glycolysis, which supplies energy and protects against oxidative stress. The dysregulation of PGC1α can lead to alterations in energy metabolism in the brain, involving mitochondrial dysfunction and consequently decreasing cognitive function and neuronal pathologies. In the early stage of AD, the little amyloid-β protein (Aβ) induces the production of ROS, which upregulates the expression of PGC1α, resulting in increasing mitochondrial biogenesis, fatty acid oxidation and its mRNA expression. However, with the development of AD, a load of Aβ and neurofibrillary tangles ultimately lead to mitochondrial dysfunction, impaired mitochondrial respiration, reduced ATP production, and affect the behavioral brain function in AD. It provides a new idea for improvement or treatment of AD symptoms by activating PGC1α.
Region stability of switched two-dimensional linear dissipative Hamiltonian systems with multiple equilibria
Authors: Liu Tongsu , Zhu Liying
Published: July 2023

This paper studies the issues of region stability of switched two-dimensional linear dissipative Hamiltonian systems. Such switched systems are composed of two stable subsystems with two different equilibrium points. Since the equilibrium points of two subsystems are different, and the state matrices of subsystems may not commute, it is difficult to address such switched systems. This paper considers the case that the switching path corresponding to the switched systems is a switching line passing through the equilibrium points of two different subsystems. A suitable region containing all the equilibrium points of subsystems is first determined. Based on the concept of region stability of switched systems with multiple equilibrium points, this paper proposes some sufficient conditions of region stability and asymptotically region stability for such kind of switched linear dissipative Hamiltonian systems via the maximum energy function method. The above main results obtained can be applied to some classes of electronic circuits, such as switching DC/DC converters and AC/DC converters. As an application and illustration, a switching DC circuit and two numerical examples are carried out to show the effectiveness of the region stability results obtained in this paper.
Discrete sequence rearrangement based self-supervised chinese named entity recognition for robot instruction parsing
Authors: Jiang Cong , Xu Qingyang , Song Yong , Yuan Xianfeng , Pang Bao , Li Yibin
Published: July 2023

Named entity recognition (NER) plays an important role in information extraction tasks, but most models rely on large-scale labeled data. Getting the model to move away from large-scale labeled datasets is challenging. In this paper, a SCNER (Self-Supervised NER) model is proposed. The BiLSTM (Bidirectional LSTM) is adopted as the named entity extractor, and an Instruction Generation Subsystem (IGS) is proposed to generate "Retelling Instructions", which analyzes the similarities between the input instructions and "Retelling Instructions" as the losses for model training. A series of rules based on traditional learning rules have been proposed for discrete forward computation and error backpropagation. It mimics language learning in human infants and constructs a SCNER model. This model is used for robot instruction understanding and can be trained on unlabeled datasets to extract named entities from instructions. Experimental results show that the proposed model is competitive with the supervised BiLSTM-CRF and BERT-NER models. In addition, the model is applied to a real robot, which verifies the practicality of SCNER.

Published: July 2023

This paper proposes a multimodal fusion 3D target detection algorithm based on the attention mechanism to improve the performance of 3D target detection. The algorithm utilizes point cloud data and information from camera. For image feature extraction, the ResNet50+FPN architecture extracts features at four levels. Point cloud feature extraction employs the voxel method and FCN to extract point and voxel features. The fusion of image and point cloud features is achieved through regional point fusion and regional voxel fusion methods. After information fusion, the Coordinate attention mechanism and SimAM attention mechanism extract fusion features at a deep level. The algorithm's performance is evaluated using the DAIR-V2X dataset. The results show that compared to the Part-A2 algorithm, the proposed algorithm improves the mAP value by 7.9% in BEV view and 7.8% in 3D view at IOU=0.5 (cars) and IOU=0.25 (pedestrians and cyclist). At IOU=0.7 (cars) and IOU=0.5 (pedestrians and cyclist), the mAP value of the SECOND algorithm is improved by 5.4% in the BEV view and 4.3% in the 3D view, compared to other comparison algorithms.

Authors: SAVAŞ Nurdan GÜNGÖR
Published: July 2023

In the production of grafted vines, losses are caused by fungal pathogens during callus forming or after planting in the soil. To control or reduce natural fungal infections in nurseries, certain applications were conducted in sapling cultivation stage to analyse the efficacy of cyprodinil + fludioxonil, floupyram + tebuconazole active substances and Trichoderma harzianum biological preparation. 1103 Paulsen rootstock and Vitis viniferea L. Sultana cultivars were stored in fungicide suspensions for 60 minutes before and after grafting in the study. After grafting, the seedlings were divided into i) cutting + sawdust ii) cutting + sawdust + soil application groups and transferred to the callus room. Fungicides were applied 1 to 7 days after the callus development to wet the seedling roots 1 to 7 days after they were planted. After nine months in the nursery, the plants were uprooted, classified as diseased or healthy, and analysed for morphological and molecular diagnosis of fungal species, isolation incidence, and seedling quality and yield. After callus development, Fusarium solani was most frequently isolated pathogen in the roots (21.5%), cyprodinil + fludioxonil reduced the Ilyonectria sp. isolation rate in both shoots and roots. Botryosphaeria obtusa and I. liriodendri pathogens were not detected in sick and healthy cyprodinil + fludioxonil-treated saplings. The highest seedling yield was observed with fludioxonil + cyprodinil, cutting + sawdust + soil (78.75%) and cutting + sawdust (70.68%) applications. According to the results of this study, it was found that fungicide applications before and after grafting prevented soil-borne pathogen infections and improved sapling quality.

The osteoarthritis (OA), the main cause of disability, is a chronic condition that most frequently affects older adults. As the population ages, the cost of treatment is placing pressure on the healthcare budget. As a result, it is imperative to evaluate the medicines' cost-effectiveness and the influence they have on health resource allocation. Hence, our study aims to summarize the cost and outcome of utilizing glucosamine in OA treatment. Authentic databases like Medline, Cochrane, and Scopus were adopted for the identification process up until July 2023. Our primary inclusion criteria centered on the economic evaluation of Glucosamine in OA treatments with provided the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) at least. The Quality of Health Economic Studies (QHES) instrument was applied to grade the quality of the studies. A total of 7 qualified studies were selected and discussed the cost-effectiveness of glucosamine with or without other formulations. All of them demonstrated that glucosamine was cost-effective. There was an in-creasement of QALY when incorporating Glucosamine into conventional care. Moreover, Crystalline Glucosamine Sulfate (pCGS) was more cost-effective than the Other Formulations of Glucosamine (OFG). In overall, utilizing pCGS was more beneficial than OFG in terms both of cost and quality of life.

Oxidative stress (OS) is reported in several chronic diseases. Extra-cellular superoxide dismutase (ec-SOD) catalyzes the dismutation of superoxide anion with a protective role on endothelial cells. In chronic kidney diseases (CKD), OS and thyroid dysfunction (low T3 syndrome) are fre-quently present, but their relationship has not been investigated. This cohort study evaluated ec-SOD activity in CKD patients during haemodialysis, divided into: “acute hemodialytic pa-tients” (AH, 1-3 months of treatment) and “chronic hemodialytic patients” (CH, treated for a longer period). We also evaluated plasmatic total antioxidant capacity (TAC) and the relation-ships with thyroid hormones. Two basal samples (“basal 1”, 3 days after the last dialysis and “basal 2”, 2 days after the last dialysis) were collected. On the same day of basal 2, a sample was collected 5 and 10 min after the standard heparin dose and at the end of the procedure. The ec-SOD values were significantly higher in CH vs AH in all determinations. Moreover, they pre-sented lower TAC values. Dividing CH patients into two subgroups according to fT3 levels (nor-mal or low) we found significantly lower ec-SOD values in the group with low fT3 at basal, 5 and 10 min samples. Finally, a significant correlation was observed between fT3 and ec-SOD in the basal 1 samples. These data, confirming OS and low T3 syndrome in CKD, suggest that low fT3 concentrations can influence ec-SOD activity and therefore contribute to possible endothelial oxi-dative damage in such a situation.

University students, particularly those in the healthcare disciplines, constitute a category of particular interest in regard to COVID-19 vaccines and the attitudes to vaccination, as their future professional role will enable them to inform and educate citizens regarding vaccination. The objectives of the study were to investigate the vaccination coverage with a COVID-19 vaccine among students from different degree programs at the Medical universities in Bulgaria behaviors and attitudes toward vaccination with a COVID-19 vaccine. A prospective cross-sectional study in the period September 2021- March 2022 was conducted. Information on demographics, university program, year of study, general attitudes and behavior towards vaccines and attitudes and personal experience with COVID-19 and COVID-19 vaccines were collected. The chi-square test was used to test for associations and binominal logistic regression was used to identify possible predictors for vaccination. A total of 3050 students with a median age of 22 years, predominantly female took part in the study. Three-thirds of the students (73.5%) have been vaccinated against COVID-19. The main reasons for vaccine hesitancy in both group of students were the fear of side effects and the doubts about the safety of the vaccines although non-vaccinated students significantly more frequently express those fears. Respondents who considered to have: a) limited access to sufficient information to inform COVID-19 vaccine uptake; b) lack of public awareness and education campaigns about effectiveness and safety of COVID-19 vaccines; c) insufficient information about COVID-19 vaccines during the University education; and d) had a positive COVID-19 diagnosis were less likely to be vaccinated. Students who have not completed the mandatory immunization cycle according to country schedule were also less likely to have completed COVID-19 vaccination. The students showed an overall positive attitude towards the COVID-19 vaccines. Promoting informational campaigns that emphasize the vaccine's safety will be more effective to further increase the vaccination coverage with COVID-19 vaccines.
The Effect of the Kumamoto Earthquakes on the Increase of Burglaries

Published: July 2023

Although the overall crime rate of an area decreases after a major disaster, the occurrence of some types of crime may increase. This may be explained by the routine activity theory, which suggests that the absence of a capable guardian and other factors induce occurrence of crime, such as when houses become temporarily unoccupied due to the evacuation of disaster victims and absence of competent guards. This study used interference analysis to investigate whether the aftermath of the 2016 Kumamoto earthquakes in Kumamoto Prefecture, Japan, temporarily increased the number of burglaries in the affected areas. Specifically, we examined whether the number of recognized burglaries temporarily increased after the earthquakes by dividing the land in Kumamoto Prefecture into two areas: one with severe earthquake damage and the other with minor damage. Results demonstrated an increase in the number of burglaries in the severely damaged areas in April and May 2016. The impact of the earthquakes was significant in April, but decreased notably in May. Contrastingly, the number of burglaries remained unchanged in areas with minor earthquake damage. Therefore, a correlation was found between the severe damage caused by the earthquakes and the transient increase in the number of burglaries.

Published: July 2023

Paget osteosarcoma is a rare but serious complication of Paget disease requiring immediate management before further malignant transformation. This case report examines the progression of a previously reported case of Paget disease with atypical pseudotumor manifestation, mimicking osteosarcoma over a 21-year time lapse. After presenting with substantial pain and elevated alkaline phosphatase levels, imaging proved extensive bony expansion of the lesion with high-grade trabecular and cortical thickening and extraosseous soft-tissue extension, prompting the need for biopsy to rule out Paget sarcoma. The atypical features of the pseudotumor's development helps distinguish key radiographic and clinical criteria for malignant development.

Published: July 2023

—In the Bouvet Island region (South Atlantic), a hotspot operates in the region of the triple junction of midocean ridges. On the basis of laboratory modeling data, the structure of the conduit of a thermochemical plume melting out in the mantle from the core–mantle boundary is presented. The thermal power of the Bouvet thermochemical plume is determined from the volume of uplifted and erupted rocks above the lower topographic level. To determine the mass flow rate of the melt for the plume, a topographic profile is used in a section perpendicular to the Bouvet hotspot trajectory and passing through the Bouvet plume. The thermal power of the Bouvet plume is 1.7 · 1010 W. Based on the obtained power, the plume diameter is d = 10–13 km. The Bouvet plume belongs to intermediate-power plumes. Such plumes are diamondiferous, because their eruption on the surface transports the melt from a depth of >150 km, at which diamond is stable. The Bouvet plume trajectory originates in South Africa. Initially, the melt erupted on the cratonic surface through a diatreme. Next, the plume was preserved in the region of the drifting oceanic lithosphere and became no longer diamondiferous. The following morphostructures of the triple junction region with contrasting types of magmatic systems are distinguished according to petrological and geochemical data: MOR and the Bouvet volcanic island, which results from the plume activity. For the Bouvet region, K2О (0.5%) and Н2О (up to 0.9%) are identified in the composition of the deep magmatic melt. There is enrichment in H2 up to 100 ppm (up to 50 ppm in the Mid-Atlantic Ridge (MAR)) and in CH4 up to 12 ppm (up to 1 ppm in the MAR). Thus, it is suggested by the specific features of the melt composition that the Bouvet Island plume is thermochemical. This paper also presents a diagram showing free-convective flows in the asthenosphere in the Bouvet Triple Junction region. Sections are constructed on which the association between the convective structure and bottom morphostructures in the Bouvet region is identified. Large-scale asthenospheric flows are responsible for the formation of MOR. Convective rolls at the top of the asthenosphere account for the formation of the Bouvet and Moshesh transform faults. The Bouvet plume is under the influence of the ascending upper-mantle flow confined to the MOR axis and locally intensifies the ascending flows of the asthenospheric rolls.

Data yang akan dibandingkan dalam penelitian ini adalah data hasil pekerjaan subjke dengan data hasil wawancara dengan subjek.Berdasarkan hasil penelitian analisis kemampuan pemecahan masalah matematis siswa kelas VIII MTs Darul Falah Terpadu pada materi peluang ditinjau dari gender maka diambil 4 siswa sebagai sampel. Sampel tersebut terdiri dari 2 siswa laki-laki yang memiliki nilai tinggi dan rendahserta 2 siswa perempuan memiliki nilai tinggi dan rendah yang memenuhi indikator kemampuan pemecahan masalah menurut Teori Polya. Dalam Teori Polya terdapat 4 indikator diantaranya yaitu (1) Memahami masalah (understanding the problem). (2) membuat rencana penyelesaiaan (devising a plan). (3) melaksanakan cerita (carry out the plan. (4) memeriksa kembali (looking back). Untuk 2 siswa yang memiliki nilai tinggi dapat dilihat bahwa kemampuan memahami masalah antara anak laki-laki dan perempuan lebih tinggi anak laki-laki, hal tersebut dapat dilihat dari hasil tes yang dikerjakan oleh siswa tersebut. Untuk 2 siswa yang memiliki kemampuan rendah memiliki kemampuan kurang dalam memahami masalah sehingga hasil yang didapatkan memiliki kekurangan. Oleh sebab itu dapat disimpulkan bahwa kemampuan pemecahan masalah matematis siswa laki-laki dan perempuan lebih tinggi siswa laki-laki.

Criptografia simétrica com uma função afim
Authors: Menezes Neto Jose Laudelino de , Mota Welisson Martins
Published: July 2023

Criptografia é o procedimento de codificar um texto com o intuito de o tornar não compreens´ıvel para pessoas não autorizadas para o ler. O objetivo deste texto é apresentar um tipo de criptografia simétrica, utilizando congruências e uma função afim do tipo 𝑓 (𝑥) = 𝑎𝑥 + 𝑏. Indo além da teoria, ensinaremos como implementar este procedimento em um programa para criação de jogos chamado Construct, onde será poss´ıvel criptografar e descriptografar mensagens. Auxiliado pelo Algoritmo Euclidiano, também criamos um programa para gerar chaves de codificação e decodificação. Esperamos que os procedimentos aqui apresentados sirvam de modelo para o uso na prática, em sala de aula, auxiliando na motivação e ensino dos conceitos matemáticos envolvidos, bem como no est´ımulo do uso de novas tecnologias e interdisciplinaridade entre ciências da computação e matemática, devido a implementação computacional.
Equações diferenciais impulsivas: uma abordagem sobre estabilidade e métodos numéricos
Authors: Santos Leonardo Hannas de Carvalho
Published: July 2023

O artigo pode ser dividido em três partes:→ Equações Diferenciais Impulsivas (ou simplesmente EDIs): conceitos fundamentais, como a descrição de sistemas com impulsos pré-estabelecidos, a existência e continuação de soluções no intervalo (ou no espaço vetorial) de análise, a dependência de valores iniciais, além da abordagem de alguns exemplos de aplicação prática.→ Estabilidade de soluções de EDIs: são definidos os tipos de estabilidade, além dos seus respectivos critérios. Também é apresentado o Teorema de Lyapunov, o qual analisa a estabilidade de uma solução partindo-se da definição de funções de energia.→ Métodos numéricos para a resolução de EDIs: são analisados alguns métodos computacionais para a resolução de problemas desta natureza. Por exemplo, os métodos de passo constante, como os métodos de Runge-Kutta.
A inversa generalizada de uma matriz e a sua obtenção através de algoritmos

O conceito de inversa generalizada de uma matriz é um assunto relativamente recente e nas ´ultimas décadas este conceito encontrou uma série de aplicações em muitas  áreas da ciência e tornou-se uma ferramente ´util para matemáticos aplicados, engenheiros e f´ısicos que trabalham, por exemplo, com análise de dados, problemas de otimização, solução de equações integrais lineares e outras.O tema inversa generalizada de uma matriz é pouco explorado em trabalhos de conclusão de curso de graduação e dissertação de mestrado, talvez pelo assunto não ser ministrado no curso regular de graduação em matemática. Neste trabalho exploraremos os algoritmos que permitem a obtenção da inversa generalizada de matrizes reais e, em especial, a inversa de Moore-Penrose conhecida também como pseudoinversa que é uma das mais importantes inversa generalizada de uma matriz.

Published: July 2023

Objective: To describe the minimally invasive, microscopic-assisted over-the-top technique and report its clinical and radiological outcomes in cases of spinal canal stenosis and first-degree degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis.Methods: Twenty-two patients with grade I degenerative spondylolisthesis and spinal canal stenosis who underwent microscopic decompression without fusion between April 2017 and December 2020 were included in the study. Results: The study population included 13 men and 9 women, with an average age of 66.7 years (range, 55–79 years) and a mean duration of symptoms of 14.8 ± 11.6 months. The mean follow-up was 49.3 months (range, 24–67 months). At the last follow-up, 13 patients were fully satisfied, 7 patients were partially satisfied, and 2 patients (9%) were not satisfied and required revision surgery with fusion. At the final follow-up, the mean leg pain numerical pain rating scale (NPRS), back pain NPRS, Oswestry Disability Index score, and Japanese Orthopaedic Association Back Pain Evaluation Questionnaire showed significant improvements in all patients, and no patients showed progression of the degree of spondylolisthesis.Conclusion: The minimally invasive, over-the-top technique using surgical microscopy is a viable option in cases with first-degree degenerative spondylolisthesis and predominantly stenosis symptoms.

Published: July 2023

Minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MI-TLIF) is a popular surgical technique for treating lumbar spinal disorders. While it offers advantages over traditional open surgery, it is not without complications. The prevention, early detection, and proper management of complications are crucial in achieving successful outcomes with MI-TLIF. Patient selection, surgical technique, and postoperative monitoring play key roles. Advances in imaging, tools, and implant design contribute to reducing complications. Surgeons should be aware of the potential complications associated with MI-TLIF and take appropriate measures. Understanding and addressing these complications will lead to better patient outcomes and long-term success. Meticulous surgical technique, proper patient selection, preoperative planning, and intraoperative monitoring can help mitigate these complications.
Bridging the Psychosocial Distance

Published: July 2023

Despite the gradual easing of the pandemic, it is important for humanity to learn from this experience. This study focused on whether survivors of pandemic experienced psychosocial distance. Previous scientific studies on survivors have focused on the recovery of physical health while paying less attention to mental health and social integration. This article adopted a multidisciplinary perspective to investigate whether survivors suffered psychosocial distance by examining representative social survey data with an embedded vignette experiment on social interaction. Looking towards potential pandemics in the future, human society must learn lessons from the past and the present to avoid psychosocial distance during pandemics by improving formal institutions and strengthening information dissemination
