Background: Hemorrhoids are a prevalent condition that significantly impacts the quality of life (QoL) of affected patients. Despite their common occurrence, few studies have thoroughly investigated the changes in health-related QoL in patients undergoing hemorrhoid surgery, particularly in Vietnam. Objectives: This study aims to assess and compare the mean quality of life (QoL) scores across various dimensions before and after hemorrhoid surgery, providing insights into the effectiveness of surgical interventions. Methods: This before-and-after study was conducted on 246 patients at the University Medical Center HCMC, Vietnam, from February 2023 to February 2024. Participants were evaluated using the HEMO-FISS-QoL questionnaire before and eight weeks post-surgery. The Wilcoxon Signed Rank test was used to determine the association between the patients' quality of life (QoL) and the scores of each dimension before and after hemorrhoid surgery at eight weeks, with statistical significance set at P < 0.05. Results: The study included 246 participants with a mean age of 42.80 ± 14.22 years. The results indicated a significant enhancement in QoL post-surgery, with mean scores decreasing from 42.37 ± 12.74 before surgery to 23.54 ± 2.19 after surgery (P < 0.001), reflecting considerable improvements across all measured dimensions. Conclusions: The findings demonstrate a statistically significant improvement in both overall QoL and individual health dimensions following hemorrhoid surgery, confirming the procedure's effectiveness. This study contributes valuable data to the limited existing literature on the impact of hemorrhoid surgery on patient outcomes in Vietnam.
The Idea of Evolution in Transhumanism
Authors: Dudíková Patrícia ,   Romanian Academy - Iasi Branch
Published: June 2024

In this paper I focus on a use of an idea of evolution in transhumanist discussions about technologies, human enhancement, and a concept of posthuman. Charles Darwin’s evolutionary theory stands at the origin of transhumanist thought and provides a theoretical foundation for many contemporary transhumanists. However, in the paper I argue that the idea of evolution used by these writers mostly cannot be interpreted as direct continuation of Darwin’s notion of evolutionary theory. The text is divided into three sections. The first section deals with Kurzweil’s term of evolution of our universe heading to the singularity. In the second section, I point out a metaphor which occurs in some transhumanist texts – the comparison of childhood and adulthood to natural and conscious evolution. The last section focuses on connection between the notions of progress, evolution, and human enhancement.
Knowledge, Confidence, and Epistemic Injustice
Authors: Vinten Robert ,   Romanian Academy - Iasi Branch
Published: June 2024

In this paper I begin by explaining what epistemic injustice is and what ordinary language philosophy is. I then go on to ask why we might doubt the usefulness of ordinary language philosophy in examining epistemic injustice. In the first place, we might wonder how ordinary language philosophy can be of use, given that many of the key terms used in discussing epistemic injustice, including ‘epistemic injustice’ itself, are not drawn from our ordinary language. We might also have doubts about the usefulness of ordinary language philosophy in this area, given ordinary language philosophers’ aversion to theory. Finally, we might have doubts about the usefulness of ordinary language philosophy due to the fact that the study of epistemic injustice is clearly a study of practical matters concerning the way the world is and has been historically. If ordinary language philosophy is just concerned with grammar, what use can it be to practical and social philosophy concerning current issues? In response to these worries, I demonstrate the usefulness of ordinary language philosophy in practice by applying the insights of Ludwig Wittgenstein and Alan R. White to a problem that Miranda Fricker raises, but does not answer: about whether there is a confidence condition on knowledge. I also make use of Gilbert Ryles distinction between ‘the use of ordinary language’ and ‘the ordinary use of an expression’ to show that the terminology used in examining epistemic injustice is ordinary in some sense.

BIOREMEDIATION: A SUSTAINABLE SOLUTION
Authors: Upadhyay Sharmishtha
Published: June 2024

Life forms are born they grow and reproduce and finally die but, in the process, they inevitably generate a lot of waste. Interestingly this waste in turn serves as a substrate for many microorganisms for energy generation. This cycle leads to natural recycling of generated waste thus keeping the system in homeostasis. This process of natural waste recycling using microorganisms is called bioremediation. Bacteria can hold on to the negatively charged soil particles using ionic bonds and reduce, eliminate or transform the hazardous wastes into innocuous compounds using them to gain energy for themselves and multiply. In absence of such degrading forces waste could accumulate and alter the environment to an extent where it could no longer support healthy life.

However, PV is beneficial for wide range of applications, the output obtained from PV is low due to varying climatic factors. For increasing the voltage to a higher range, it is necessary to utilise a DC-DC converter. In this study, the enhanced CUK converter is combined with an ANFIS controller to produce stable output voltage to power the motor.The stabilized output voltage is subsequently delivered to 3φ VSI, which is in charge of directly powering the PMBLDC motor. Furthermore, perfect control of the inverter's frequency and voltage allows for accurate PMBLDC motor speed regulation, which is performed by comparing the reference speed with the actual motor speed using a PI controller. In addition to this, the LC filter is positioned within the PV and the inverter that assist to reduce the current and voltage fluctuation and consequently, the input feed to the inverter is smoothed. The results of a detailed simulation of the suggested technique using MATLAB reveal remarkable reliability and robustness, demonstrating the effectiveness and practicality for PV supplied PMBLDC motor drive.

Published: June 2024

A conventional autopsy starts with an external examination of the deceased. Incisions are made to examine and remove the internal organs, which are inspected, measured, and sampled for histopathology. Specific cases may require further sampling for cultures and biochemical estimations. In contrast, virtopsy can boast in its non-invasiveness, which can supplement or may even replace conventional autopsy. The main goals of a medicolegal autopsy are to determine the cause and manner of death, to evaluate the antemortem phenomenon of sustained injuries, and to form a reconstruction of events before death based on the findings. The technology and processes utilized in virtopsy with permanent reproducible data analyzed and stored for future reference will improve the quality of forensic investigation. Virtopsy may be superior to a conventional autopsy as it is investigator independent, objective, and noninvasive. Its future applications may include studies of morbidity and mortality in the general population and, perhaps, routine screening of bodies prior to burial.

Terahertz range lies between microwave band (<100GHz) to far Infra-Red band (>10THz) range. The actual range of Terahertz is 0.3 to 3THz and the radiation occurs about 1millimeter, hence called as sub-millimetre band/wave which are usually short wavelengths. Normal antenna designs can be made as per our requirement, but coming to THz antenna the case is entirely different. It has to be designed, constructed, and fabricated with lot of limitations and constraints. They have many challenges related to high performance like high data rates (Tbps), proper spectrum allocation, high gain, high bandwidth, compact (sub mm size), low profile, low cost, uninterrupted data transfer, suppressed buffer, improved latency etc... Usually, horn antennas give better performance compared to all antenna structures because of its properties like low losses, high radiation, etc... Many horn antennas like diagonal horn, Pickett potter horn, corrugated horn is used for their high efficiency nature. Many other antennas like lens antenna, rectangular horn, conical horn, micro strip antenna, planar antennas, reflector antennas and arrays can be used. Another mainly used antenna type is Photo conductive antenna (PCA), Bow tie antennas because of their prolific nature. Coming to simulation process which is mandatory before fabrication we have to choose proper software’s with that much memory to support THz range. Some common software’s to simulate THz antennas are HFSS, CST studio, Ads, etc... Substrates usually used are Fr-4, Rogers-5880 and when it comes to THz antenna special attention must be given to substrates also. Some commonly used substrates for THz antennas are meta-materials, Resonant Graphene (for its conductivity), meta/mesa surface antenna, GaAs, InGaAs/InAlAs. Since these antennas are miniature sized, portable they find various applications like body antenna, defence sector and bio medical. Finally, there is need for improvement in antenna structures with accurate main lobes and suppressed side lobes. MIMO can also be used for THz to overcome losses, improving gain, confined directivity, long distance radiation [1].

The 62 species of hornbills around the world are extravagant birds with over-sized beaks that are found in tropical Asia, Africa, Indonesia, and Papua New Guinea. They are icons of their forest habitat. Because they spread the seeds of several tropical trees, they are frequently referred to as the "farmers of the forest" because of the way they spread forest tree seeds over the area they fly over. Hornbills regurgitate or vomit the seeds after eating as they typically occupy a home range of at least 10 km, they may disperse seeds across a far larger area with far greater efficiency than other smaller frugivores. They are a sign of a balanced and prosperous forest. For this reason, hornbills are regarded as an indicator species. The tale of how the bond between these birds and the long-standing custom of protecting forests in the name of a deity has helped to preserve both the unprotected forests and sacred groves throughout wide-ranging terrain. In recognition of the significance of these birds, and to ensure the continuity of this unique alliance, conservation initiatives have gained a greater spotlight. Conservation organizations, farmers, and local communities are working together to protect hornbill habitats and spread awareness among the local communities for safeguarding the agricultural landscapes inhabited by them by fostering a greater appreciation of the ecological and cultural worth of hornbills.

In numerous nations, including India, Andrographis paniculate has been used medicinally in traditional medicine. In addition to having immunosuppressive, antipyretic, analgesic, hepatoprotective, antiviral, and anti-inflammatory effects, andrographolide is one of the key bioactive compounds .Andrographolide and analogs triggered cell cycle arrest, promoted apoptosis in a variety of cancer cells, and showed anticancer effects. In both animal and human cancer cells, andrographolide and analogs produced cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, and reduced metastasis and anti-angiogenesis. Because andrographolide can suppress the activity of v-Src, NF-B, STAT3, and PI3K/AKT as well as impede the advancement of the cell cycle, inflammation, metastasis, and the formation of new blood vessels, these effects are the outcome of the compound. For the development of anticancer drugs, substantial chemical-biological research has been conducted on analogy and andrographolide. In equally in vitro and in vivo representations, several andrographolide analogs consume demonstrated superior anticancer activity. To confirm the pharmacological, pharmaceutical, and toxicological effects of andrographolide, additional clinical and biological investigations are needed.
