Published: August 2023

There is a considerable gap between demand and supply of edible oil in Pakistan. The Government fills the gap by importing edible oils from other countries, costing billions of dollars. Efforts to boost oilseed crop yields at the federal and provincial levels have remained largely unsuccessful. This study compares the profitability of oilseed crops with its competing crops to find out factors that will aid in the sustainable adoption of oilseed crops. Primary Data were collected from 120 randomly selected farmers. Among 120 farmers, 60 were those growing oilseed crops, and rest were those growing crops other than oilseed crops. The determinants impacting the sustainable adoption of oilseed crops were identified using logistic regression. It was found that education, farming experience, subsidy, availability of quality seed and quality pesticides, availability of loans, and water availability issue were the factors that have a positive impact on oilseed crops adoption. Low-market-price, high-cost-of-fertilizer were the factors that decreased the adoption of oilseed crops.

Published: August 2023

El síndrome metabólico es una entidad clínica compleja que conlleva un alto riesgo de enfermedades cardiovasculares y diabetes tipo 2. En este artículo de revisión sistemática, se analiza la investigación de nuevos biomarcadores para el diagnóstico temprano y preciso del síndrome metabólico. Se realizó una búsqueda exhaustiva en bases de datos científicas y se seleccionaron estudios relevantes sobre biomarcadores emergentes. La creciente prevalencia del síndrome metabólico ha impulsado la búsqueda de biomarcadores más sensibles y específicos para detección temprana y manejo eficaz. La adiponectina ha surgido como biomarcador potencialmente valioso, ya que estudios han mostrado su relación con el síndrome metabólico y riesgo cardiovascular. Marcadores de inflamación como la proteína C reactiva (PCR) y la interleucina-6 (IL-6) también se investigan por su asociación con inflamación crónica en el síndrome metabólico. El ácido úrico es otro biomarcador emergente, relacionado con resistencia a la insulina y síndrome metabólico. La proteína transportadora de ésteres de colesterol (CETP) se considera indicador de dislipidemia y síndrome metabólico. Además, los microARNs (miR-33a y miR-122) pueden ser relevantes en la homeostasis lipídica y glucídica, sugiriendo su uso como biomarcadores. La identificación de nuevos biomarcadores promete un diagnóstico temprano y preciso del síndrome metabólico. Sin embargo, se subraya la necesidad de más estudios que validen y establezcan su utilidad clínica. Este enfoque tiene el potencial de mejorar el manejo y pronóstico de esta afección.

Model predictive control of resonance sensitive irrigation canals
Authors:   , Horváth Klaudia
Published: August 2023

Saving water is an economic and ecological need. One way to save water is to reduce losses in irrigation networks by canal automation. The goal of canal automation is to make the right amount of water to at arrive in the right time. In order to achieve this goal, one of the ways is controlling the gates in the irrigation network by some control algorithm. In this work the control of a specific type of canal pools is studied: short and flat pools that are prone to resonance.
The downstream water level control of this type of canals is investigated using the example of the 3-reach laboratory canal of the Technical University of Catalonia. Numerical and experimental studies are carried out to investigate the following: the choice of models for predictive control, the possibility to achieve offset-free control while using gravity offtakes and the best choice of control action variables.
The objective of this work is to develop a well performing centralized model predictive controller (MPC) for the laboratory canal that is able to handle known and unknown setpoint changes and disturbances, and also to draw further conclusions about controller design for this type of canals.
A recently developed model for resonant canals, the Integrator Resonance, is implemented and successfully tested experimentally for the first time.
A new method to achieve offset free control for model predictive control is developed and tested numerically and experimentally.
A choice of control variables are tested: As opposed to the discharge which is generally used as the control action variable, a state space model is formulated by using the gate opening as control variable without the need of water level measurement downstream of the gates.
The results are summarized and conclusions are presented for control of short and flat canals that are prone to resonance.

This study explores the impact of internet users’ and web owners’ knowledge, measured by the level of digital skills, on the number of insecure websites based on a survey of the internet. The influence of the affordability of internet access to the web space on the vulnerability of a particular European country is also considered. The study introduces a quantifiable index for assessing the insecurity of websites that is incorporated into a newly developed tool that scans websites and identifies the vulnerability in the Web Content Management System (WCMS). The collected vulnerability data and the digital skills are analyzed with statistical methods for finding the interdependences and relationships. Higher levels of digital skills and lower fixed-internet-access costs contribute to a smaller number of insecure websites. The vulnerability of the websites for different economic sectors is explored as well. The paper discusses the differences in the digital development pathways and governmental policies applied in European countries that have been affected by user knowledge and digital skills. The study brings original results and findings, as there are no similar studies addressing the impact of the knowledge of a country’s population on the level of insecurity found in the WCMS, including plug-ins.

The Internet of Everything (IoE) is rapidly growing and utilized in various applications. However, the growing mobile traffic and services pose significant challenges in flexibility, movement, accessibility, and safety. The existing internet architecture and protocol must be improved to address the challenges. The article examines the attributes and prerequisites of forthcoming networking applications while emphasizing the constraints of conventional network architecture and protocols in fulfilling these needs. The research presents a new Hybrid Internet Architecture and Protocol (HIAP), the Self-Evolving and Transformative (SET) architecture. This architecture is designed to provide diverse control works and smart configuration options for different applications and networking conditions. This HIAP framework's primary emphasis lies in transport protocols and mechanisms for peer-to-peer file sharing. This study proposes implementing a deadline-aware multipath transport protocol within the framework of the Internet architecture with seamless support of real-time applications requiring strict adherence to latency demands. The HIAP framework incorporates evolvability, adaptable routing, and in-network cache mechanisms to enhance contentdelivery. To conduct a more comprehensive examination and conceptualize the peer-to-peer file-sharing system, the research created a pragmatic blueprint for setting the file transfer protocol on the HIAP. The study presented the groundwork for an Internet architecture better suited to the changing demands of the IoE and its various applications. This HIAP architecture aims to be more adaptable, efficient, and transformative. The present study involves a comparative analysis between the proposed research and current architecture. The findings provide evidence of the progress made by the suggested research in addressing the challenges related to multipath and safety in future architectural designs.

Background: Esophagogastroduodenal varices are dilated submucosal of distal esophageal, gastric, and duodenal veins connecting the portal and systemic circulation. This case report aims to describe a unique case of a child with esophagoduodenal varices due to myelodysplastic syndrome.
Case: We reported a case of 3-year-old girl who came to Hasan Sadikin General Hospital on April 3 2022, complaining of black stools 1 time per day for two days before admission. She had previously been diagnosed with esophagogastroduodenal varices since 2019. On initial examination, the patient was fully conscious and appeared pale. The patient's clinical condition improved after adequate treatment of blood transfusion, octreotide, omeprazole and propanolol. However, patient later developed pancytopenia and underwent bone marrow puncture examination which revealed a myelodysplastic syndrome.
Discussion: Myelodysplastic syndrome is a condition where ineffective hematopoiesis occurs and can lead to blood malignancy, especially acute myeloblastic leukemia. In this patient, she presented with unequivocal hypertensive gastroesophageal varices, splenomegaly, absence of fibrosis and thrombocytosis supporting subsequent diagnosis of idiopathic non cirrhosis portal hypertension. On the other hand, non-cirrhotic portal hypertension can also be caused by myelodysplastic syndrome as described in this case report.
Conclusion: Myeloproliferative malignancies can be a cause of idiopathic non cirrhosis portal hypertension. Pancytopenia often occurs in patients with portal hypertension due to splenomegaly or myelodysplastic syndrome, which can lead to acute myeloblastic leukemia, an example of a myeloproliferative malignancy.

Castelul Miravet - Misterul manuscrisului
Authors: Riche-Villmont Michael , Riche-Villmont Eva Cornelia
Published: August 2023

Romanul de faţă este, în parte, o ficţiune aşa cum fictive sunt şi unele personaje şi întâmplări descrise aici. Evenimente din istoria templierilor, descrise în roman, sunt bazate pe fapte reale, dar ficţiunea şi imaginaţia ne-au ajutat să le dăm o formă literară. Reală este şi istoria lui Lilá și Brisuca, ele ne bucură acum cu joaca şi alintul ei. Se ştie că toţi câinii sunt afectuoşi, dar, la fel ca toate animalele, sunt fiinţe, cu sentimente şi trăiri şi toţi oamenii buni, educaţi, trebuie să le iubească, să le ocrotească. Așa cum le ocroteau cavalerii templieri, care nu practicau vânătoarea. Cartea aduce şi întrebări, rămase, încă, fără răspuns: cine au fost, cu adevărat, cavalerii templieri? Vor fi cunoscute secretele lor spirituale? Există spirite, fantome? Se manifestă ele în lumea pământeană? Până când găsim răspunsurile, lăsăm imaginaţia să ne poarte în lumea spiritelor.
Farmacología como disciplina clave para mejorar la salud
Authors: Carrasco Ortega Omar F
Published: August 2023

La Farmacología es una rama del conocimiento que se nutre de esfuerzos colaborativos de diversas profesiones vinculadas con el área de la salud; los estudiosos de los mecanismos moleculares dilucidan cómo es que los fármacos son capaces de crear respuestas biológicas, otros grupos analizan la evidencia que respalda el uso de algunas sustancias como mejor opción terapéutica y exploran el uso de nuevas opciones en busca de beneficios en función de su efectividad y seguridad. Éste último aspecto es vital, comprobar que el perfil de seguridad de las estrategias terapéuticas utilizadas sea óptimo no solo para el paciente sino también para el mismo equipo médico que lo administra.
