Authors: Hasan MD Rokibul , Islam Md Raisul , Rahman Md Anisur
Published: January 2025

Demand forecasting has long been a critical challenge in the US supply chain operations, plagued by disruptions, fluctuating demand, and price volatility. Developing and implementing AI models that can accurately predict demand is essential in response to these issues. This study aimed to investigate the feasibility of applying machine learning techniques to demand forecasting, particularly in supply chain operations. A comprehensive analysis was conducted using historical data from a logistics company in the USA, which was used to train five traditional demand forecasting methods: Linear Regression, ElasticNet, Random Forest, MLPRegressorn, and XGBoost. Additionally, feature selection, data normalization, and dimensionality reduction techniques were employed to improve the accuracy of these models. Strategic metrics were used to evaluate the model's performance: Random Mean Squared Error, Mean Absolute Error, and R-squared score. The results of this study indicate that AI models have shown significant promise in predicting target sales in supply chains with Linear Regression emerging as the most effective model with the lowest RMSE, MAE, and an R-squared score close to 1. Practical implications of implementing such AI models in the US supply chain include optimized inventory management, reduced costs, and enhanced customer satisfaction. This research contributes to the existing body of knowledge on AI applications in demand forecasting, highlights the importance of traditional methods being supplemented by machine learning techniques, and provides practical recommendations for businesses seeking to improve their supply chain operations.

Authors: Abdalrahim Maysoon , Al-Sutari Manal
Published: January 2025

BACKGROUND

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an incapacitating illness associated with distressing symptoms (DS) that have negative impact on patients’ health-related quality of life (HRQOL).

AIM

To assess the severity of DS and their relationships with HRQOL among patients with CKD in Jordan.

METHODS

A descriptive cross-sectional design was used. A convenience sampling approach was used to recruit the participants. Patients with CKD (n = 140) who visited the outpatient clinics in four hospitals in Amman between November 2021 and December 2021 were included.

RESULTS

The Edmonton Symptom Assessment System was used to measure the severity of the DS while the Short Form-36 tool was used to measure the HRQOL. Participants’ mean age was 50.9 (SD = 15.14). Most of them were males (n = 92, 65.7%), married (n = 95, 67.9%), and unemployed (n = 93, 66.4%). The highest DS were tiredness (mean = 4.68, SD = 2.98) and worse well-being (mean = 3.69, SD = 2.43). The highest HRQOL mean score was for the bodily pain scale with a mean score of 68.50 out of 100 (SD = 32.02) followed by the emotional well-being scale with mean score of 67.60 (SD = 18.57).

CONCLUSION

Patients with CKD had suboptimal HRQOL, physically and mentally. They suffer from multiple DS that have a strong association with diminished HRQOL such as tiredness and depression. Therefore, healthcare providers should be equipped with the essential knowledge and skills to promote individualized strategies that focusing on symptom management.

Published: January 2025

Background: Acute renal colic is a common acute urologic conditions often caused by urolithiasis. However, diagnosis of obstruction due to urolithiasis sometimes becomes difficult especially when there is an insufficient dilation of urinary tract proximal to obstruction. In these situations, intra renal artery doppler assessment may be utilized as a diagnostic modality. The aim of this study to evaluate intra-renal arterial Doppler parameters in patients presenting with unilateral acute renal colic, comparing obstructed and non-obstructed kidneys. Methods: This case controled study was done at Azeem Ultrasound and Xray Center and was completed in 6 months [12-12-2023 till 11-06-2024].  60 individuals were included in the study. Pelvicalyceal system dilatation was examined in each kidney using USG images. For the evaluation of inter-lobar arteries, a minimum of 3 doppler spectra were taken, and their mean was calculated. Resistiv index (RI) was measured using the standard formula, and the mean RI value was determined for each kidney. Results: The resistive index was elevated in the obstructed group (0.72 ± 0.10) versus the unobstructed group (0.63 ± 0.07; p < 0.001). The predictive accuracy showed a sensitivity of 70.0%, a specificity of 86.67%, a postive pridictive value (PPV) of 78.97%, and an negatieve predictiev value (NPV) of 80.15%. Conclusion: The comparison of Doppler indices between obstructed and unobstructed kidneys in patients with urolithiasis reveals significant differences. Elevated RI and PI values, along with increased PSV, highlight that hemodynamics is altered in the presence of renal obstruction. These findings support the use of Doppler ultrasound as a valuable diagnostic tool, helping in the timely identification and management of obstructive uropathy.

In this study, effect of annealing temperatures in room, 100 and 200 C0 on the structural and optical properties of Bismuth (III) iodide (BiI3) thin films is investigated. The deposition process of the specimens was done by physical vapor deposition method on FTO substrate. The samples were prepared at 200 nm thickness. The structural properties, and optical absorption spectra of samples were measured by XRD and UV–Vis spectrophotometer. The Urbach energy and band gap of the samples were obtained by absorption spectrum fitting Tuac methods. The results showed that by increasing the annealing temperature up to 100 C0, the crystallinity of samples increased, the band gap and Urbach energy decreased about 1.60 and 0.17 eV, respectively. The results show that by increasing the annealing temperature up to to 200 C0, the band gap and Urbach energy increase. Studies on the structural and optical properties of thin films, show that BiI3 can be used as an active layer in lead-free perovskite solar cells.
Indisposition and Homoeopathy
Authors: Mishra Sanskriti , Sharma Harishankar , Rana Vikrant , Kushwaha Namrata Singh
Published: January 2025

Indisposition is a health issue caused by outside influences that can be readily addressed by removing the causing source.
Eg: Business failure, Overeating, Lack of sleep, Abuse of substances etc are the external causes due to which indisposition occurs.
If man's stomach has been upset by his bad habits, it will return to normal once he stops abusing it; as long as he leads a normal life, he won't experience this indisposition.
“If a strong-smelling flower that causes syncope and hysterical suffering is removed, it will correct indisposition. Removing it will fix the indisposition that causes sensitive, anxious girls to swoon from the flower’s scent.”
There are people who cannot live in the ordinary atmosphere; so they need to change their environment, goes to the mountains, some to warm lands, some to cold lands and by removing the occasioning cause, the apparent aggravating cause of suffering will correct the symptoms.

Beyond Current Frontiers of Electrocatalysis
Authors: Zeradjanin Aleksandar
Published: January 2025

One of the key reasons why the transition to renewable energy sources is progressing slowly is the low efficiency of processes at electrified interfaces where electricity is converted and stored as chemical energy. The challenge behind low efficiency is sluggish electrochemical conversion reactions. To resolve low efficiency, it is necessary to comprehend the intrinsic reasons behind the unusually complex phenomena of converting electrical energy into chemical energy, and vice versa, chemical energy into electrical energy. An important example is the electrolysis of water, where, after decades of research, it is not clear how to significantly accelerate the processes of hydrogen and oxygen generation. Of critical importance for the control of the water electrolysis mechanism is understanding the origins of the electrocatalytic activity. If we ask a key question from a conceptual point of view, namely: what are the origins of electrocatalytic activity? The answer will be, in most cases, as it was 70 years ago. Namely, the paradigm of electrocatalysis is the Sabatier principle, which suggests optimal ("not too strong, not too weak") binding of intermediates as the main prerequisite for a high reaction rate. Conventional wisdom suggests that confirmation of this should be a linear relationship between the adsorption energy of the intermediate and the activation energy, known as the Brønsted-Evans-Polanyi relation. However, recent results show that lowering the activation energy is not necessarily beneficial for increasing the reaction rate. In this work, some fundamentally important questions about the nature of electrocatalytic activity will be raised. Identifying and analyzing these issues can be an important trigger and driver towards efficient water electrolysis and a more comprehensive understanding of electrocatalysis as a scientific field of key importance for the conversion, storage and utilization of energy from renewable sources.

Published: January 2025

Approximately 10% of geriatric patients (adults over the age of 65) transported via ambulance will have a mental status altered from baseline, otherwise known as delirium. Many of these patients will be agitated, posing a management challenge for EMS practitioners. Existing protocols for delirium in the pre-hospital setting were designed for younger adults, who have different etiologies and different levels of tolerance for medications than most older adults.
 

ED-based protocols have already been created to aid in the treatment of patients with this condition.  Yet, their applicability is limited, as many involve elaborate diagnostics not available in the prehospital environment. Furthermore, many protocols recommend using medications that are not recommended for older adults. Thus, we created an evidence-based protocol for the prehospital evaluation and treatment of agitated geriatric patients. Our protocol puts specific emphasis on safely avoiding unnecessary administration of and/or high dosages of psychotropic medications. We also emphasize practical management, including non-pharmacologic treatment of this condition in older adults.
Making sense of body-worn cameras as a violence prevention tool for ambulance staff
Authors: Adams Avery , Ling Tom
Published: January 2025

Body-worn cameras (BWCs) were introduced for ambulance crews in England in 2021 in response to rising rates of abuse targeted towards ambulance crews by members of the public. As part of an evaluation of the effectiveness of BWCs as a tool for reducing occupational violence, we produced a non-systematic literature review to examine the real-world outcomes and cost-effectiveness of BWCs in a variety of settings and countries. Our review identified minimal literature on the topic pertaining to the ambulance sector. While there is considerable evidence relating to BWCs and violence prevention more generally, much of it is poor quality, anecdotal, and focused on specific professions with limited scope for making generalisations. There is some evidence that BWCs have the potential to address violence and abuse directed towards ambulance staff. However, our analysis of costs and benefits also raises questions about evidence concerning the value of BWCs and their potential negative impacts on staff wellbeing. The literature is unclear about the underlying mechanisms through which BWCs might support violence reduction, and it is likely that any benefits will be mediated by the complex and unpredictable environment in which BWCs are being used, which is likely to have strong independent effects on outcomes. The more that BWC research is able to explore such mechanisms in detail to inform our understanding of how and under what conditions specific outcomes are observed, the more we will be able to make sense of the variable findings produced in this area to date.

Electrical energy is energy that has an important role for society. One of the benefits is for lighting. The current state of electricity in Indonesia is very concerning, especially since the oil and gas resources on earth are very limited, and one day they will run out. Therefore, various studies have been carried out to find energy sources other than oil and gas, as alternative energy sources that can be utilized according to needs. A water turbine is a device for converting the potential energy of water into mechanical energy. This mechanical energy is then converted into electrical energy by a generator. Hydropower is energy obtained from flowing water. The energy possessed by water can be utilized and used in the form of mechanical energy and electrical energy. Utilization of water energy is mostly done by using waterwheels or water turbines that take advantage of the presence of a waterfall or water flow in the river. The Pelton turbine uses a nozzle with an inner diameter of 4 mm and an angle of 60° capable of producing 0.8031 watts of power. These results were obtained at a discharge variation of 0.0002 m3/second. At the time of this test also which produces the greatest efficiency value among other tests, which is 1.231%.

A emergência climática, agravada pelos riscos globais de degradação ambiental, demanda transformações significativas no currículo escolar, conforme previsto na Lei 14.926/2024. Este artigo analisa os impactos da crise climática no meio ambiente e a inserção de abordagens educacionais voltadas para a sustentabilidade e a cidadania planetária no contexto brasileiro. Fundamentando-se na centralidade teórica da “Sociedade de Risco” (2011) de Ulrich Beck entre outros autores que discute como a modernidade intensifica os perigos globais e exige novos modelos de gestão e conscientização. Assim, a pesquisa explora como o sistema educacional pode atuar como agente de mitigação e adaptação às mudanças climáticas. A Lei 14.926/2024, que introduz diretrizes obrigatórias para a educação climática no ensino básico, é analisada como marco regulatório para a inclusão de conteúdos interdisciplinares e práticas pedagógicas críticas que promovam a compreensão dos fenômenos climáticos e suas implicações sociais, econômicas e culturais. Este estudo considera que a implementação da educação climática deve transcender a mera transmissão de informações científicas, incorporando reflexões éticas, políticas e comunitárias. Dito isso a pesquisa é de cunho qualitativo (Minayo, 2016), descrita, bibliográfico (Gil, 1999) e compreensivo (Weber). A análise evidencia como a integração da temática climática no currículo escolar reflete os desafios da educação no século XXI para enfrentar a crise ambiental, destacando o papel transformador da escola na promoção da justiça socioambiental e no fortalecimento da cidadania ecológica.

Authors: Athias Arianne Brito Cal , Do Carmo Lisbino Geraldo Miranda , Costa Paulo Henrique da Silva
Published: January 2025

A pesquisa visa compreender o papel do planejamento e do controle judicial nas políticas públicas, analisando quais seus limites e suas possibilidades, examinando se exercer tal controle pode desrespeitar a separação dos poderes e prejudicar a prestação do serviço público por parte do Estado. Analisando a importância do planejamento como requisito indispensável para qualquer política pública, possuindo viés técnico e político. O Poder Judiciário tem um papel crescente na fiscalização das políticas públicas, visando garantir que as ações governamentais estejam alinhadas com os objetivos da Constituição. No entanto, essa intervenção judicial pode causar problemas quando resulta em decisões que alteram diretamente o planejamento, impactando potencialmente a estabilidade e a continuidade das ações de governo, analisando os atos administrativos quanto ao seu mérito. A pesquisa examina os limites do controle judicial nas políticas públicas e os impactos positivos e negativos dessa intervenção. As questões discutidas incluem o papel do planejamento, como o controle judicial é exercido, e as possibilidades e limitações constitucionais desse controle. O texto enfatiza que, enquanto o judiciário pode intervir para proteger direitos constitucionais, essa intervenção deve ser cuidadosamente equilibrada para não sobrecarregar a administração pública com decisões que exigem especialização técnica e planejamento a longo prazo. Concluindo que apesar da importância do controle judicial, que pode aprimorar as políticas públicas, tornando-se mais efetivas e inclusivas, deve-se respeitar a separação dos poderes e não substituir as funções do Executivo e Legislativo, evitando decisões que comprometam a estabilidade e o planejamento das ações governamentais.

This paper focuses on the effectiveness of algorithms in detecting such abusive websites. It goes on to analyze the dataset of phishing and non- phishing URLs providing explanatory attributes such as domain registration date, URL length or the existence of HTTPS. The models studied include Decision Tree, Random Forest, and Support Vector Machines. The results found that the Random Forest algorithm had the best performance of 97% in terms of classification accuracy, and Support Vector Machines performed the best in terms of generalization accuracy with precision and recall values of 0.92 and 0.95, respectively. The study investigates feature selection and determinants of URL structural features which are crucial in determining the efficiency of detection. Also, to enhance model assessment the stratified 10-fold cross-validation technique was performed to reduce bias and variance. These Results show the prospect of One Layer Neural Networks as a tool to improve Phishing Detection Systems and help to provide low-cost and fast solutions for current or future cyberspace struggles. This work aims to increase confidence in online security applications against modern phishing methods.The proposed modifications will help strengthen counter measures against phishing attacks in a shifting technological context while also working towards sustaining the organizations and thus require further inquiry into the facets such as the applicability of sophisticated artificial intelligence techniques the use of useful yet diverse sets of data and the incorporation of explainable intelligent systems

Guided bone regeneration is a proced capable of promoting new bone formation. The bone defect such as fenestration, injury and tooth extraction.Guide Bone Regeneration has been used widely in implantology for enhancing bone healing to optimize implant placements in the maxillary.The guide bone regeneration is a technique that uses resorbable andnon-resorbable membranes in combination with other filling biomaterials as autologous, homologous or heterologous bone graft, or aloplastic materials as mechanic barriers that prohibit the migration of connective and epithelial cells, enabling the osteogenic cells invasion in bone defects.
Advances in the treatment of temporomandibular joint disorders
Authors: Pacheco Fernando
Published: January 2025

The management of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunctions has evolved significantly in recent decades with the development of minimally invasive surgical techniques and customised prostheses. Arthrocentesis and arthroscopy stood out for their efficacy in the treatment of mild and moderate pathologies. Arthrocentesis, described by Nitzan, allowed inflammatory products to be removed and the joint disc to be released in a quick and minimally invasive procedure, improving mobility and reducing pain. Arthroscopy offered direct visualisation of the joint, facilitating the diagnosis and treatment of more complex cases. Advanced procedures, such as the triangulation technique, extended its usefulness in the management of disc dislocations and adhesions. In severe cases, such as ankylosis or structural deformities, customised prostheses became the best option. These prostheses, designed with CAD/CAM technology, guaranteed a precise anatomical fit and significant functional improvement. However, their implementation was limited to patients where minimally invasive options were insufficient due to their surgical complexity and associated costs. Advances in biocompatible materials, such as titanium alloys and PEEK, improved the durability and osseointegration of prostheses, optimising long-term outcomes. This technological and medical progress allowed for a more tailored and effective approach to treating TMJ dysfunctions, improving patients' quality of life and reducing complications. Appropriate treatment selection according to severity and individual characteristics was key to therapeutic success.
Evolution and Challenges of Dental Prostheses
Authors: Baños Lucia
Published: January 2025

Oral health, defined by WHO as an integral part of general wellbeing, played a key role in basic functions such as nutrition and communication. Factors such as poverty and environment significantly influenced oral health, especially in vulnerable communities. The oral microbiota was considered key to maintaining the balance of the oral ecosystem, and its disruption led to pathologies such as gingivitis and caries. Historically, dental prostheses evolved from rudimentary techniques to the use of advanced acrylic resins. These resins, although efficient and affordable, presented challenges such as porosity, which led to infections and decreased denture strength. Poor hygiene and poorly fitting dentures led to conditions such as prosthetic stomatitis, linked to biofilm accumulation and colonisation by Candida albicans. The use of denture adhesives improved functionality and comfort, but inappropriate use of denture adhesives increased the risk of plaque accumulation. Oral hygiene education and the design of preventive programmes for older populations were essential strategies to mitigate these problems. In conclusion, technical advances in dental materials, combined with preventive measures and education, were decisive in optimising oral health, reducing complications and improving quality of life, especially in disadvantaged groups.

Currently, anti-inflammatory drugs are the most consumed worldwide, although their abuse and excess lead to gastropathies and cardiovascular complications causing death in 47 out of every 100,000 patients, Ricinus communis, despite its limited research, has proven to be an excellent natural alternative to counteract the inflammatory process. Therefore, the objective of this study is to evaluate the anti-inflammatory activity of the hydroalcoholic extract of higuerilla leaves by means of the plantar edema test with 3% carregenin in mice, applied by cutaneous route inside the surface of the aponeurosis in the right paw, where five groups of treatments with six animals each were made; The first group was a negative control group with 0.9% sodium chloride, the second group was a positive control group treated with indomethacin, while the other groups with the respective mixtures with a dose of 150, 250 and 500 mg/kg of hydroalcoholic extract of R. communis 50% administered orally where they received an exact dosage according to weight and route of administration. Meanwhile, it was observed that the extract at the dose of 500 mg/kg. showed a similar behavior to Indomethacin at the maximum hour tested, with a similar percentage of inhibition after the second hour and over 50% at the fourth hour of the study, which indicated a good anti-inflammatory power under the conditions. The extract at the other doses tested showed a good anti-inflammatory effect, although in lower percentages than the positive control. That is, it was found that under an effect of acute inflammation induced by significant plantar edema, it was presented with a higher percentage of inhibition at the dose of 500 mg/kg, comparable to indomethacin used as a reference drug.

Introduction: The article reviewed the problem of bladder catheter-associated urinary tract infections (BV-UTIs), which constituted between 20% and 50% of nosocomial infections in intensive care units. These infections, mostly related to the use of urinary catheters, increased morbidity and mortality and hospital costs. Historically, the implementation of biosafety standards and infection control, such as that developed in Great Britain in 1959, proved to be fundamental strategies for their prevention.Development: Key preventive measures were described, such as hand hygiene, based on social, antiseptic and surgical techniques, and their ability to reduce bacterial transmission. In addition, the importance of training nursing staff in the placement and maintenance of urinary catheters, using sterile equipment and aseptic techniques was discussed. A project implemented in a public hospital in Rosario was also presented, where 60 nurses were trained to standardize procedures and reduce the incidence of UTI-SV, reinforcing adherence to biosafety standards.Conclusion: The article concluded that continuous education of nursing staff, supported by evidence-based practices, led to a significant reduction in SV-TTIs in critically ill patients. This model, based on strict standards and constant training, proved to be replicable in other hospital settings to optimize patient safety, reduce complications and ensure quality care.

IntroductionThe advent of digital scanners and 3D printing technologies transformed the dental field by facilitating more accurate and complete impressions of the patient's mouth. These tools made it possible to replace conventional impressions, reducing working times, improving patient comfort and optimizing archiving. In addition, the combination of digital scans and 3D printing opened up new possibilities for the customized production of dental models and devices.DevelopmentThe CAD-CAM system was central to this evolution, enabling the creation of digital three-dimensional models that materialized into physical objects through additive methods such as 3D printing. This process involved precision at every stage, from the quality of the scanning to the technology used for printing. Among the available methods, stereolithography (SLA, DLP, LCD) stood out for its ability to reproduce complex details by photopolymerizing liquid resins with ultraviolet light. Each technology presented particular advantages, such as speed and surface quality, being evaluated according to factors such as cost, biocompatibility and clinical specifications.ConclusionThe implementation of 3D printing technologies in dentistry provided an efficient and accurate solution for fabricating customized dental models. This advance significantly improved clinical planning and the quality of dental treatment. Comparing the accuracy of various technologies allowed the identification of optimal tools according to specific needs, ensuring better patient outcomes.
