Published: August 2024

Chondrosarcomas of the larynx are rare, mainly arising from cartilages of the larynx, including cricoid cartilage, thyroid cartilage epiglottis, and arytenoid cartilages. These can be misdiagnosed initially as benign malignancy. Historically, the treatment used to be surgery, which usually is total thyroidectomy with a loss of voice forever. No gross improvements in treatment occurred, and surgery was the mainstay of the treatment. Chondrosarcoma from other anatomical regions can very rarely cause thyroid metastasis. Here, we present a case of an elderly male who presented with a multinodular goiter and underwent thyroidectomy. On histopathology, he was diagnosed with grade 2, conventional chondrosarcoma.

Objective: To calculate Placental Weight to Birth Weight Ratio and its effect among neonates delivered at tertiary care center.
Study Design: Cross-sectional study.
Place and Duration of Study: Obstetrics and Gynecology Department of a tertiary care center, Karachi Pakistan, from Dec 2019 to Feb 2020.
Methodology: Booked cases with singleton pregnancies and gestational ages more than 37 weeks at birth were considered. On a manual scale, the placenta was weighed to the nearest gram. Immediately following delivery, the birth weight of babies was recorded to the nearest gram on the same manual weighing equipment. At 01 minute and 05 minutes, the APGAR scores were noted as well.
Results: The mean age of our respondents was 29.05±5.27 years old. Placental Weight to Birth Weight Ratio ratios were substantially greater in newborns with low APGAR scores than those with high APGAR scores at 1 minute (p=0.001), and the median Placental Weight / Birth Weight was also significantly higher in those infants at 5 minutes (p=0.001).
Conclusion: Poor perinatal outcomes, such as low APGAR scores at 1 and 5 minutes after birth, are associated with high Placental Weight/Birth Weight ratio.

Published: August 2024

The integration of renewable energy systems in green buildings represents a critical step towards achieving sustainability and reducing carbon emissions in the built environment. This paper explores the challenges and opportunities associated with incorporating renewable energy sources, such as solar, wind, geothermal, and biomass, into green building designs. While renewable energy systems offer significant environmental benefits, their implementation in green buildings faces several technical, economic, and regulatory challenges. One of the primary challenges is the high upfront cost of renewable energy technologies, which can be a barrier to adoption, particularly for small-scale projects. Additionally, the variability and intermittency of renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind, pose reliability issues, requiring effective energy storage solutions and grid integration strategies. The integration process also demands advanced technical expertise, which can be scarce in some regions, further complicating the adoption of renewable energy systems. On the other hand, the opportunities presented by the integration of renewable energy in green buildings are substantial. Renewable energy systems can drastically reduce a building’s operational carbon footprint and energy costs over time, contributing to long-term economic and environmental sustainability. The use of solar panels, wind turbines, and geothermal heat pumps in green buildings not only supports energy self-sufficiency but also aligns with global climate goals by reducing dependence on fossil fuels. Moreover, the rapid advancements in renewable energy technologies and decreasing costs are making these systems more accessible and viable for a broader range of projects. Governments and international organizations are increasingly offering incentives, subsidies, and favorable policies to encourage the adoption of renewable energy in the construction industry, further enhancing its appeal. This review highlights the dual nature of integrating renewable energy systems in green buildings, acknowledging the challenges that need to be addressed while emphasizing the immense opportunities for advancing sustainable architecture. As technology continues to evolve, the successful integration of renewable energy systems will play a pivotal role in the future of green building design, helping to achieve energy-efficient and environmentally responsible built environments.

Abstract. Mercury (Hg) is a global atmospheric pollutant. In its oxidized form (HgII), it can readily deposit to ecosystems, where it may bioaccumulate and cause severe health effects. High HgII concentrations are reported in the free troposphere, but spatiotemporal data coverage is limited. Underestimation of HgII by commercially available measurement systems hinders quantification of Hg cycling and fate. During spring–summer 2021 and 2022, we measured elemental (Hg0) and oxidized Hg using a calibrated dual-channel system alongside trace gases, aerosol properties, and meteorology at the high-elevation Storm Peak Laboratory (SPL) above Steamboat Springs, Colorado. Oxidized Hg concentrations displayed diel and episodic behavior similar to previous work at SPL but were approximately 3 times higher in magnitude due to improved measurement accuracy. We identified 18 multi-day events of elevated HgII (mean enhancement of 36 pg m−3) that occurred in dry air (mean ± SD of relative humidity = 32 ± 16 %). Lagrangian particle dispersion model (HYSPLIT–STILT, Hybrid Single-Particle Lagrangian Integrated Trajectory–Stochastic Time-Inverted Lagrangian Transport) 10 d back trajectories showed that the majority of transport prior to events occurred in the low to middle free troposphere. Oxidized Hg was anticorrelated with Hg0 during events, with an average (± SD) slope of −0.39 ± 0.14. We posit that event HgII resulted from upwind oxidation followed by deposition or cloud uptake during transport. Meanwhile, sulfur dioxide measurements verified that three upwind coal-fired power plants did not influence ambient Hg at SPL. Principal component analysis showed HgII consistently inversely related to Hg0 and generally not associated with combustion tracers, confirming oxidation in the clean, dry free troposphere as its primary origin.

Published: August 2024

Abstract. ​​​​​​​A novel ground-based radiometer, referred to as the Shortwave Array Spectroradiometer-Hemispheric (SAS-He), is introduced. This radiometer uses the shadow-band technique to report total irradiance and its direct and diffuse components frequently (every 30 s) with continuous spectral coverage (350–1700 nm) and moderate spectral (∼ 2.5 nm ultraviolet–visible and ∼ 6 nm shortwave-infrared) resolution. The SAS-He's performance is evaluated using integrated datasets collected over coastal regions during three field campaigns supported by the US Department of Energy's Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) program, namely the (1) Two-Column Aerosol Project (TCAP; Cape Cod, Massachusetts), (2) Tracking Aerosol Convection Interactions Experiment (TRACER; in and around Houston, Texas), and (3) Eastern Pacific Cloud Aerosol Precipitation Experiment (EPCAPE; La Jolla, California). We compare (i) aerosol optical depth (AOD) and total optical depth (TOD) derived from the direct irradiance, as well as (ii) the diffuse irradiance and direct-to-diffuse ratio (DDR) calculated from two components of the total irradiance. As part of the evaluation, both AOD and TOD derived from the SAS-He direct irradiance are compared to those provided by a collocated Cimel sunphotometer (CSPHOT) at five (380, 440, 500, 675, 870 nm) and two (1020, 1640 nm) wavelengths, respectively. Additionally, the SAS-He diffuse irradiance and DDR are contrasted with their counterparts offered by a collocated multifilter rotating shadowband radiometer (MFRSR) at six (415, 500, 615, 675, 870, 1625 nm) wavelengths. Overall, reasonable agreement is demonstrated between the compared products despite the challenging observational conditions associated with varying aerosol loadings and diverse types of aerosols and clouds. For example, the AOD- and TOD-related values of root mean square error remain within 0.021 at 380, 440, 500, 675, 870, 1020, and 1640 nm wavelengths during the three field campaigns.

Abstract. The mesosphere and lower thermosphere (MLT) is a highly variable region that forms the transition region between middle and upper atmosphere. The variability of this region is driven by atmospheric waves transporting energy and momentum from the lower and middle atmosphere to MLT altitudes. The upward propagation of atmospheric gravity waves and tides is one of the key processes at all latitudes that alters the state of the ionosphere-thermosphere system. Their vertical propagation depends on the background mean winds. The TIMED Doppler Interferometer (TIDI) onboard the Thermosphere-Ionosphere-Mesosphere-Energetics and Dynamics (TIMED) satellite observes neutral winds at the MLT using airglow emissions. We establish a TIDI mean wind climatology, compare our results with existing climatologies derived from local meteor radar observations, and discuss similarities and differences depending on local time and geographical latitude.
Monsoon Asia Rice Calendar (MARC): a gridded rice calendar in monsoon Asia based on Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 images

Published: August 2024

Abstract. An accurate and spatially explicit large-scale rice calendar can enhance the understanding of agricultural practices and their ecological services, particularly in monsoon Asia. However, currently available global- or continental-scale rice calendars suffer from coarse resolution, poor recording, and outdated information; thus, they do not provide detailed and consistent information on rice phenology. To address this limitation, this study mapped a new (2019–2020) gridded (0.5°×0.5° resolution) rice calendar for monsoon Asia based on Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 satellite images. The novelty of this rice calendar lies in the development of a consistent optimal methodological framework that allows the spatially explicit characterization of the rice transplanting date, harvesting date, and number of rice cropping seasons. The methodological framework incorporates two steps: (1) detection of rice phenological dates and number of rice cropping seasons via the combination of a feature-based algorithm and the fitted Weibull function; (2) spatiotemporal integration of the detected transplanting and harvesting dates derived from Step 1 using von Mises maximum likelihood estimates. Results revealed that the proposed rice calendar can accurately identify the rice phenological dates for three croppings in monsoon Asia. When compared with single rice data from the census-based RiceAtlas calendar, the proposed calendar exhibited better results than the MODIS-based Rice Crop Calendar for Asia (RICA). It exhibited biases of 4 and −6 d for the transplanting and harvesting dates, respectively, with 10 and 15 d lower MAE values and 6 and 15 d lower RMSE values for the transplanting and harvesting dates, respectively. In total, the proposed rice calendar can detect single-, double-, and triple-rice-cropping seasons with an area of 0.53×106, 0.45×106, and 0.09×106 km2, respectively. This novel gridded rice calendar fills the gaps in 0.5° rice calendars across major global rice production areas, facilitating research on rice phenology that is relevant to climate change. The developed gridded Monsoon Asia Rice Calendar (MARC) is available at https://doi.org/10.17595/20230728.001 (Zhao and Nishina, 2023).
Thin quartz resonators as a detector element for thermal infrared sensors

Published: August 2024

Abstract. This work describes the manufacturing technology and packaging of a single-crystal quartz sensor with a thickness of 5 µm. The temperature dependence of the resonance frequency of quartz resonators can be used for thermal radiation sensors with a high signal-to-noise ratio. The sensitive element, in the form of a bowl or a cantilever, is ion beam etched and must be able to vibrate freely. Impedance measurements show the temperature-dependent vibration of the resonators. For higher frequencies, scattering parameters are measured using a vector network analyzer. The cantilever achieves a higher vibration amplitude than the bowl, although with many secondary resonances. The temperature coefficient of the resonance frequency is determined to be around 90 ppm K−1.
Leaping with Duende: Triangulating Dionysian Aesthetic and Spanish Surrealism in the Selected Poems of Federico Garcia Lorca
Authors: Mudassir Hamza
Published: August 2024

This paper explores selected poems from Federico Garcia Lorca's two poetry volumes, A Poet in New York and Lament for Ignacio Sanchez Mejias, from the perspective of his poetic thesis expounded in the lecture titled Theory and Play of Duende. The available scholarship on Lorca fundamentally focuses on the socio-politico-cultural undertones in his poetry. By bringing a fresh perspective to his poetry through the technique of Duende, this research challenges pre-existing notions popular in the available critical scholarship. A robust creative force that artists’ work exudes without their control on it, Duende leaves a trance-like effect on the spectators/audience (and readers in case of poetry). Understood by many cultural critics and writers as an artistic inspiration deeply rooted in Spanish soil, Duende has long been riddled with mystical abstractions and subject to scholarly misconceptions. The current study makes it accessible through Friedrich Nietzsche's concept of Dionysian Aesthetic from his book Birth of Tragedy. Inspired by the Greek god Dionysus that stands for orgiastic energies, dance, and transgression, Dionysian Aesthetic is the manifestation of creative energies in art. This investigation also employs a Spanish concept called “Leaping” that bridges the gap between Duende and Dionysian Aesthetic, as this paper illustrates by reading Lorca's selected poems. Having its origin in Spanish poetry, Leaping is a technique characterized by associative jumps from subject matter to the unconscious mind keeping in perspective the emotions emanating from the poem. This essay triangulates Duende and Dionysian Aesthetic as theoretical props with Leaping technique in order to analyse Lorca’s poetry, and this is how it intervenes in contemporary scholarship on Lorca.

Verification of the Mediating Effect of Makeup Behavior Change in the Relationship Between Women’s Personal Color Diagnosis and Cosmetics Purchase Intention
Authors: Lee Ji-Yong , Ahn Jin-Jung
Published: August 2024

This study examines how the experience of personal color diagnosis affects purchase intention and behavioral changes in makeup, and analyzes the sustainability of trends in the beauty industry through personal color. To verify the mediating effect of makeup behavioral changes, data statistical analysis methods such as frequency analysis, factor analysis, descriptive statistical analysis for calculating means and standard deviations, and multiple regression analysis were conducted. Hierarchical regression analysis and the Sobel test were performed to test the mediating effect of makeup behavioral changes in the relationship between awareness of personal color diagnosis and purchase intention. The results of the Sobel test indicate that, in the third step of the Sobel test, makeup behavioral changes fully mediate the relationship between color preference awareness and purchase intention. Analysis results show that the higher the satisfaction with personal color, the more it leads to purchasing behavior. Thus, increasing customer satisfaction through personal color can enhance purchasing power. Although satisfaction in makeup behavioral changes has a greater mediating effect, interest in personal color also mediates this relationship, implying that merely providing the experience and education of personal color diagnosis can increase the probability of purchase. People who have experienced personal color diagnosis are expected to desire makeup services that apply personal colors well-suited to their tones, which is anticipated to increase customer needs in the service sector. Additionally, for companies, there are positive effects on purchasing power, and for artists and designers, opportunities to provide personal color education should be increased to enhance the professionalism of personal color diagnosis education. The popularity of personal color diagnosis, which provides satisfaction, interest, and engagement in makeup within the beauty industry, is expected to continue.

This study investigated the washing, sunlight and sweat fastness, and hair damage of hair dyed using Aplysia kurodai pigment extract and obtained the following conclusions. The dye ability of hair dyed with a mordant-treated dye showed a color difference compared to that of non-mordant treated hair. Color fastness according to washing showed color differences depending on repetition, and sunlight fastness showed the same pattern of color differences in color difference, brightness, redness, and yellowness. Sweat fastness following repeated immersion, the color difference increased in alkaline sweat, and the color difference in acidic sweat maintained a certain pattern, but it slightly increased in Cu and Fe mordants. The degree of hair damage was slightly higher in Al, Cu, and Fe mordanted hair than in non-mordanted hair. The elongation rate showed the greatest change with repeated exposure to sweat, and among these, Al mordant showed the greatest change. Aplysia kurodai pigment extract showed better dyeing properties using a mordant than without mordant, but the use of a mordant seemed to have some effect on washing, sunlight, sweat fastness, and damage. Therefore, there is a possibility of using it as a natural dye in hair dyeing using Aplysia kurodai pigment extracts, but it is judged that there are problems to be solved in terms of color change and damage.

In modern society, appearance and image are crucial elements symbolizing personal competitiveness. As a result, many individuals invest significant time and money in appearance management to create an ideal image. Personal color plays a substantial role in image management. This study aims to analyze the impact of personal color recognition on changes in hair and nail art behaviors. Data were collected through a survey of 179 adult men and women aged between 20 and 50. The survey included questions related to personal color recognition and items measuring changes in hair and nail art behaviors. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS 21.0, including frequency analysis, factor analysis, reliability analysis, and regression analysis. The study found that personal color recognition significantly influences changes in hair and nail art behaviors. Particularly, color preference recognition had a more significant impact on hair and nail satisfaction than direct recognition. Hair behavior changes were significantly predicted by both color preference and direct recognition, whereas nail art behavior changes were mainly influenced by color preference recognition. This study suggests that personal color recognition enables individuals to make more satisfying and reliable choices in their beauty behaviors. It also highlights the potential for the beauty industry to enhance customer satisfaction and loyalty by providing personalized beauty services that reflect individual color preferences through personal color diagnosis.

Background: Mental disorders impose a significant burden of disease on society, and the health authorities have therefore laid down guidelines specifying that psychologists should focus on prevention and treatment of mental disorders in the municipalities. However, since the legal requirement to recruit psychologists was imposed on the municipalities in 2020, it is unclear whether the supply of psychologists in the municipalities has met the demand. The aim of this study was to examine the supply of psychologists in Norwegian municipalities compared with other groups of statutory health personnel and to investigate whether the supply of psychologists is associated with the geographical, economic and social characteristics of municipalities. Method: We compared openly available registry data on the services provided by psychologists, physiotherapists, public health nurses and physicians in the municipalities with data on the municipalities’ economy, centrality and proportion of residents with low income and mental disorders. Results: We found that the number of full-time equivalent positions for psychologists in 2021 was lower than for other statutory professions in the municipality. Analyses showed that the supply of psychologists was better in municipalities with higher incomes while the supply of psychologists in municipalities with a higher prevalence of mental disorders was poorer. The probability of having at least one psychologist was significantly higher in central municipalities. Conclusion: The supply of psychologists in municipal health services is low compared with other groups of health personnel, and geographical and social inequalities exist in access to psychologists in primary health care.

Effects of Taxes on Consumer Behavior: A Macro-Economic Study
Authors: Rahman Yusuf
Published: August 2024

This study investigates the effects of taxes on consumer behavior within the framework of macroeconomics, aiming to provide insights into the intricate relationship between taxation policies and individual choices. Employing a qualitative research approach, the study conducts a comprehensive literature review, drawing on diverse sources such as scholarly articles, books, and reports. Thematic analysis is employed as the primary method for data analysis, allowing for the identification of recurrent patterns and themes across the literature. The research findings reveal that taxes exert a significant influence on consumption patterns, savings behavior, and overall economic activity. Specifically, empirical evidence highlights the effectiveness of excise taxes in shaping consumption behaviors, particularly regarding products like cigarettes and alcohol. Moreover, the incidence of taxation, whether borne by consumers or producers, varies across different product categories and income groups, necessitating careful consideration in tax policy design. The study also underscores the importance of incorporating behavioral insights into tax policy formulation to enhance compliance and minimize evasion. Additionally, the globalization of markets and advancements in technology present new challenges and opportunities for policymakers in navigating the tax-consumer behavior nexus. Addressing these challenges requires innovative approaches and international cooperation to ensure a level playing field between traditional and digital businesses. Overall, the research contributes to a deeper understanding of how taxation policies influence consumer behavior and provides valuable insights for policymakers, businesses, and researchers.

Aim: The SARS CoV-2 virus that emerged in 2019 and the emerging pandemic are full of journeys. The nephrological effects of the pandemic have been a matter of curiosity. In this study, nephrological problems were investigated in COVID-19 positive patients hospitalized in clinical and intensive care units.
Materials and Methods: The research is an observational cross-sectional retrospective study. Between November 2020 and November 2021, blood and urine analyzes sent from patients aged 18-90 who were followed up in the COVID-19 Intensive Care Unit and COVID-19 clinics were examined. 79 patients were included in the study. The diagnosis of COVID-19 was made by considering RT-PCR, thorax CT and clinical situation. These 79 patients were compared in terms of acute kidney injury (AKI), electrolyte imbalance and complete urinalysis disorders.
Results: AKI was detected in 32.9% of patients. 42.3% of patients with AKI were female, 57.7% were male. 73.1% of the patients with AKI were hospitalized in the intensive care unit. Hematuria and proteinuria were detected in 65% and 27%, respectively. In the examinations performed, 65% hematuria, 27% proteinuria, 44% hyponatremia, 4% hypernatremia, 13% hypokalemia, 11% hyperkalemia, 11% hypophosphatemia, 6% hyperphosphatemia, 9% hypomagnesemia, 3% hypermagnesemia, 24% hypocalcemia and 65% hypoalbuminemia were detected.
Conclusion: Acute kidney injury, hematuria and proteinuria were statistically significant in patients diagnosed with COVID-19 and hospitalized and followed up. There are also electrolyte imbalances and hypoalbuminemia in patients. Follow-up of patients with COVID-19 should be carefully monitored in terms of nephrolog
