Authors: Dharma Gita Putu Santhi , Runa I Wayan , Parwata I Wayan
Published: October 2022

Abiansemal village has good regional potential to become an agro-tourism village, it can be seen from the area of rice fields and dry fields of approximately 49% of the total area. The impact of this activity is positive and negative. Positive things provide an increase in economic value, but there are negative impacts caused by the increasing amount of waste produced, so it needs proper handling, one of which is making infrastructure for reuse, reduce, recycle waste management (TPS 3R). The purpose of this study is to obtain population projections, waste projections, large community participation in the procurement of  TPS3R Infrastructure and present a potential 3R TPS Infrastructure layout model for Abiansemal Village. The method used is descriptive quantitative analysis, in the form of distributing questionnaires for community participation and surveying the characteristics of waste in the technical aspects of the 3R TPS infrastructure. The result of this research is that the waste generation in Abiansemal Village in 2022 is 15.85 m3/day to 18.16 m3/day in 2031. The large participation of the Abiansemal Village community has knowledge, behavior and attitudes that understand, often and agree or in a Likert value percentage above 51% - 75% of the procurement of 3R Waste Management Site Infrastructure (TPS), and a potential infrastructure model as a 3R TPS Abiansemal Village is with a given land area of 1000 m2, the land needed for infrastructure facilities so that they can serve optimally until 2031 with a waste capacity 18.16 m3/day is 514.58 m2, so there is still land left that can be used as other infrastructure to support tourism in Abiansemal Village.
N6-methyladenosine-related long noncoding RNA is a potential biomarker for predicting pancreatic cancer prognosis
Authors: Chen Yiyang , Zhou Wanbang , Gong Yiju , Ou Xi
Published: October 2022

Pancreatic cancer is a common malignant tumor of the digestive system, with insidious onset, difficult early diagnosis, easy metastasis, and poor prognosis. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) and long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) play important roles in the prognostic value and immunotherapy response of pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD). Therefore, it is crucial to recognize m6A-related-lncRNAs in PAAD patients. In this study, m6A-related lncRNAs were obtained by coexpression analysis. Univariate, the Least Absolute Shrinkage, and Selection Operator (LASSO) and multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed to construct m6A-related lncRNA prognostic models. Kaplan–Meier analysis, principal component analysis, feature-rich annotation, and nomogram were used to analyze the accuracy of risk models. Potential drugs targeting this model are also discussed. A prognostic model based on m6A-related lncRNAs was constructed, potential drugs targeting this m6A-related lncRNAs feature were discovered, and the relationship with immunotherapy response was studied. Finally, a nomogram was established to predict survival in PAAD patients. This m6A-based lncRNAs risk prognostic model may be promising for clinical prediction of prognosis and immunotherapy response in PAAD patients.
Dilemmas of responsibility for robots controlled by artificial intelligence
Authors: Maternowska Małgorzata
Published: October 2022

Wielu naukowców na całym świecie zajmujących się prawem i ekonomią argumentuje za potrzebą
ponownego przemyślenia środków prawnych, jeśli stosuje się je do ewentualnych szkód będących efektem zastosowania sztucznej inteligencji (robotów). Do tej pory nie istnieje jednak ogólne sformułowanie odpowiedzialności w wymienionych przypadkach, a proponowane rozwiązania różnią się w zależności od jurysdykcji. W niniejszym artykule, opierając się na analizie literatury i dokumentów źródłowych w postaci istniejących (lub proponowanych) aktów prawnych, przedstawiono problemy związane z deliktami robotów oraz podjęto próbę oceny wyzwań, przed którymi stoją decydenci w zakresie regulacji dotyczących deliktów robotów sterowanych sztuczną inteligencją w kontekście ich wpływu na rozwój postępu technologicznego. Zagadnienie to uznano za celowe. Jest ono istotne w zakresie zarządzania innowacjami. To, jak prawo reaguje na delikty robotów, jest kwestią o doniosłym znaczeniu: może stymulować bądź hamować rozwój sztucznej inteligencji. Ustalenie określonych ram prawnych w tym względzie ma także duże znaczenie w kontekście obowiązków po stronie tworzących i wdrażających określone rozwiązania. Ryzyko związane z odpowiedzialnością jest jednym z kluczowych czynników decydujących o sukcesie nowych technologii, produktów i usług. Odpowiednie zabezpieczenie przed ryzykiem jest niezbędne do zapewnienia społeczeństwu, że może ono zaufać nowej technologii mimo możliwości poniesienia szkody. W wyniku przeprowadzonej analizy stwierdzono, iż nadal brak odpowiedzi na pytanie: jak można, wykorzystując prawo, stymulować rozwój technologii? Stosowane systemy odpowiedzialności najczęściej nie są w tym względzie pomocne. Standardowe prawo dotyczące zaniedbań i odpowiedzialność za produkt nie odnoszą się odpowiednio do wielowymiarowych kwestii motywacyjnych, ważnych z punktu widzenia zarządzania innowacjami i rozwojem technologicznym. Występuje zatem konieczność prowadzenia dalszych badań w zakresie konstrukcji prawa określającego odpowiedzialność za delikty robotów/sztucznej inteligencji.

Published: October 2022

Probiotics have been shown to assist weight loss in overweight people. This study investigated the effects of a synbiotic supplement that comprised a prebiotic and a probiotic on anthropometric and biochemical measures in overweight and obese subjects. The synbiotic supplement used in this study contained Lactobacillus johnsonii No.1088, Bacillus subtilis (BS139), fermented sake lees, and green tea essence. Forty subjects with a body mass index ranging from 27 to 35 were recruited for this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. At baseline and at the end of the 12-week trial, body composition and anthropometric parameter measurements were taken, blood biochemical analyses were performed, and fecal samples of the subjects were examined for gut microbiota diversity. Our results showed the synbiotic supplementation in this study did not affect normal liver and kidney function but significantly reduced body weight, body mass index, and waist and hip circumference. Total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels were also significantly reduced in subjects in the synbiotic supplementation group. Additionally, both fecal culture and urea breath testing showed inhibition of Helicobacter pylori infection in the subjects with synbiotic supplementation. The synbiotic supplementation in our study had promising effects in terms of weight loss, reduction of total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels, and inhibitory activity against H. pylori bacteria.
Cattle grazing reduces fuel and leads to more manageable fire behavior

Published: October 2022

Cattle play an important role in wildfire management by grazing fuel on California rangelands. The benefits of cattle grazing have not been thoroughly explored, though. Using statewide cattle inventory, brand inspection and land use data, we have estimated that cattle removed 11.6 billion pounds (5.3 billion kilograms [kg]) of non-woody plant material from California's rangelands in 2017. Regionally, these reductions varied between 174 and 1,020 pounds per grazed acre (195 to 1,143 kg per hectare). Fire behavior is characterized in this paper by flame length. Fire behavior models suggest that these regional fuel reductions lower flame lengths, and lead to more manageable wildfires. In addition, fire-based models show that cattle grazing reduces fuel loads enough to lessen fire hazards in many grazed areas. Moving forward, there may be significant opportunities to expand strategic grazing on rangelands to add extra layers of protection against wildfires.

A cantilever-based, ultrahigh-vacuum, low-temperature scanning probe instrument for multidimensional scanning force microscopy
Authors: Liu Hao , Ahmed Zuned , Vranjkovic Sasa , Parschau Manfred , Mandru Andrada-Oana , Hug Hans J
Published: October 2022

Cantilever-based atomic force microscopy (AFM) performed under ambient conditions has become an important tool to characterize new material systems as well as devices. Current instruments permit robust scanning over large areas, atomic-scale lateral resolution, and the characterization of various sample properties using multifrequency and multimodal AFM operation modes. Research of new quantum materials and devices, however, often requires low temperatures and ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) conditions and, more specifically, AFM instrumentation providing atomic resolution. For this, AFM instrumentation based on a tuning fork force sensor became increasingly popular. In comparison to microfabricated cantilevers, the more macroscopic tuning forks, however, lack sensitivity, which limits the measurement bandwidth. Moreover, multimodal and multifrequency techniques, such as those available in cantilever-based AFM carried out under ambient conditions, are challenging to implement. In this article, we describe a cantilever-based low-temperature UHV AFM setup that allows one to transfer the versatile AFM techniques developed for ambient conditions to UHV and low-temperature conditions. We demonstrate that such a cantilever-based AFM offers experimental flexibility by permitting multimodal or multifrequency operations with superior force derivative sensitivities and bandwidths. Our instrument has a sub-picometer gap stability and can simultaneously map not only vertical and lateral forces with atomic-scale resolution, but also perform rapid overview scans with the tip kept at larger tip–sample distances for robust imaging.

Published: October 2022

The favorable climate conditions of the island of Crete and the recent legislation for the utilization of renewable energy sources, provide a substantial incentive for the installation of photovoltaic power plants. In this paper, the grid-connected photovoltaic park (PV park) of C. Rokas SA in Sitia, Crete is presented and its performance is evaluated. The photovoltaic park has a peak power of 170 kWp, and has been in operation since 2002. The park is suitably monitored for a one year internal and the performance ratio and the various power losses (temperature, soiling, internal network, power electronics, grid availability & interconnection) are calculated. The PV Park supplied 230 MWh to the grid during 2007, ranging from 335 kWh to 870 kWh per day. The final yield (YF) ranged from 2 h/d to 5 h/d and the performance ratio (PR) ranged from 58 % to 73 %, giving an annual PR of 67,36 %.
COMPUTATION OF QUASISTATIC ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS OF COMPLEX ELECTRIC POWER FACILITIES
Authors: Bojan Trkulja  , Željko Štih
Published: October 2022

: Accurate computation of low-frequency quasistatic electromagnetic fields is important in the design of electricity transmission and conversion devices. This work presents the theoretical groundwork of a computation using integral equations. The procedures for solving these equations are defined by applying the method of moments and the point matching method. The unknown distribution of the source function density on the thin-wire elements is approximated by the third degree polynomials. On rectangular planes the approximation of an unknown source function is achieved by means of bilinear elements. A program has been developed for the parallel electromagnetic field computation based on the described method.

Effective Management of the Rapid Spread of the COVID-19 Virus in South Korea: Social and Institutional Learning from MERS
Authors: Jung Kwangho
Published: October 2022

COVID-19 case management by South Korea shows that citizenship and evolutionary mechanisms of social and institutional learning have helped curb the spread of COVID-19. The painful experience of the MERS virus in 2015 pushed Korean society to improve the capacity of both health and quarantine systems. Korea's initial response to COVID-19 stems from learning in both the civil society and government sectors. The experience of MERS created a social learning space for Korean society at large and an opportunity for institutional learning for the government. Social learning encourages good citizenship, the development of social capital, and community innovation, all of which help people respond nimbly to a viral epidemic. Institutional learning entails government reform and feedback, active administration, effective distribution of tests, effective tracing, and effective treatments.

The trend of online learning has been intensifying and present is the need for study to align this phenomenon to motivation in order for language teachers to boost students’ achievement. This research is about to inquire the correlation between online informal learning of English and motivation to learn English. Quantitative method was used to measure the correlation between variables. Subjects were students in a boarding school selected with random sampling. To obtain data, questionnaire and interview were conducted. There were 55 students in total that participated in completing the questionnaire and only 16 of them were taken to be considered for the interview. The questionnaire was in Likert Scale about the frequency of English use and about the motivation in learning. Semi-structured interview was used to confirm and expand the data. Statistical analysis of two questionnaire resulted in a positive correlation (correlation coefficient {r} = 0,48). This means that higher values of one variable tend to be associated with higher values of other variable. Suggestion was to increase English use in online activities, to observe other factors affecting the results, and more research is needed to be conducted.

2021 Korean Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System (2021-K-TIRADS) and Imaging-Based Management of Thyroid Nodules: Korean Society of Thyroid Radiology Consensus Statement and Recommendations
Authors: Jung So Lyung
Published: October 2022

The rate of detection of thyroid nodules and carcinomas has increased with the widespread use of ultrasonography (US), which is the primary imaging modality for the detection and risk stratification of thyroid nodules. The appropriate diagnosis and management of these patients is based on the risk factors related to the patients as well as the thyroid nodules. The Korean Society of Thyroid Radiology (KSThR) published consensus recommendations for US-based management of thyroid nodules in 2011 and revised them in 2016. These guidelines have been used as the standard guidelines in Korea. However, recent advances in the diagnosis and management of thyroid nodules have necessitated the revision of the original recommendations. The task force of the KSThR has revised the Korean Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System and recommendations for US lexicon, biopsy criteria, US criteria of extrathyroidal extension, optimal thyroid computed tomography protocol, and US follow-up of thyroid nodules before and after biopsy. The biopsy criteria were revised to reduce unnecessary biopsies for benign nodules while maintaining an appropriate sensitivity for the detection of malignant tumors. The goal of these recommendations is to provide the optimal scientific evidence and expert opinion consensus regarding US-based diagnosis and management of thyroid nodules.
Management Strategies for the Successful Establishment and Growth of the Hospitalist System
Authors: Lee Jongchan
Published: October 2022

Appropriate management strategies are required to establish, maintain, and promote the growth the hospitalist system. Herein, we discuss strategies for the successful operation of the hospitalist system from the business point of view, particularly in terms of human resources and organizational management. Hospital executives should establish the vision, mission, value, and key value drivers of the hospitalist system from its inception, as well as decide its size and operation pattern according to the situation of each medical institution. Hospitalists are employed through the process of recruitment to increase the number of applicants and allow the selection of suitable candidates. Once the hospitalist system is constructed and operational, the focus must shift toward its growth. The goals and strategies for growth should be decided, leaders must be selected, and assistants must be employed. In the future, the hospitalist system is expected to play an essential role in improving the quality of medical care. Therefore, medical institutions should strategically introduce, maintain, and promote the growth of the hospitalist system.

Published: October 2022

Perioperative anticoagulation in a kidney transplant recipient with heparin-induced thrombocytopenia is challenging due to paradoxical hypercoagulability. A 49-year-old man with end-stage kidney disease and a previous stroke history was referred for living donor kidney transplantation. After the fifth dialysis session, the platelet count decreased to 10,000/μL, and heparin was immediately discontinued. Five days later, pulmonary thromboembolism with deep vein thrombosis was identified. Anti-heparin PF4 antibody, elevated serum homocysteine, and methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene mutations were discovered. Subsequent coronary angiography revealed three-vessel disease. Apixaban, folate, aspirin, and clopidogrel were administered and an inferior vena cava filter was implanted. Thereafter, coronary artery bypass graft surgery was performed using argatroban-bridging without complications. Kidney transplantation was performed 3 months later using the argatroban protocol. The graft kidney functioned well without any complications. In conclusion, we successfully conducted kidney transplantation in a thrombophilic patient with a methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase deficiency and heparin-induced thrombocytopenia by establishing an individualized perioperative anticoagulation protocol.

Le père dans le Code civil, un fils inavoué de la Révolution ?
Authors: Verjus Anne
Published: October 2022

La législation de l’an II (1793-1794) qui pendant quelques brèves années va permettre d’égaliser les droits des enfants naturels et des enfants légitimes, a des effets inattendus et durables sur notre droit. Loin de faire le lit de l’égalité entre tous les enfants, elle organise une extension des droits sans obligation nouvelle de leurs pères, au détriment des mères non mariées et de leurs enfants non désirés et non reconnus. La Révolution maintient la puissance du patriarcat jusque dans son droit le plus individualiste et prépare son institutionnalisation par le Code civil.

Plus d’un savoir. Savoir et division du sujet
Authors: Askofaré Sidi
Published: October 2022

Si l’école, en tant qu’institution sociale, est devenue l’un des lieux où s’expérimente le « rapport au savoir », celui qui y est délivré et enseigné est loin d’épuiser ce que recouvre et ce qu’implique, pour un sujet parlant, ce que c’est que savoir. Car, de savoir, il y en a plus d’un et ils ne font pas toujours bon ménage. Le seul savoir dit scolaire – celui des apprentissages et des études – éclaire encore moins les positions subjectives à l’endroit du savoir et que seule met au jour la division expérimentée de la division subjective dans l’expérience psychanalytique : amour, déni, refoulement, rejet, horreur, désir de savoir et désir du savoir.

Dans sa conférence à Bruxelles du 26 février 1977 Lacan a cette étrange formule à propos du symptôme hystérique : « … c’est avec des mots que ça se résout et c’est avec les mots de la patiente même que l’affect s’évapore ». Surprenant ce terme d’évaporer ! À partir de cette phrase, en faisant un petit détour par les vapeurs dont se plaignaient les femmes de l’aristocratie au xvii e et de là aux précieuses, il s’agit de serrer d’un peu plus près la question de la vérité, et de ce que c’est que parler pour une hystérique.

Published: October 2022

En 2020, la pandémie de la covid-19 a contraint la communauté universitaire à effectuer plusieurs aménagements pour continuer à offrir et permettre de suivre une formation de qualité. Les changements opérés se situaient d’une part au niveau des modalités d’enseignement et des moyens ou contenus d’évaluation associés, et d’autre part au niveau des activités de formation pratique et de recherche, l’accessibilité aux terrains ayant été compromise. Dans la maitrise « Approches psychoéducatives et situations de handicap », les conséquences de cette crise sanitaire a eu plusieurs impacts sur la réalisation des stages obligatoires. Nous avons interrogé les étudiant·es quant à leur vécu, en le mettant en lien avec le concept de qualité de vie. Cette dernière ayant été en effet fortement impactée pour toute la population, nous souhaitions faire un état des lieux auprès des étudiant·es et proposons, au regard de leurs réponses, des pistes de réflexions.
MOVING HAVENS: AN APPLICATION OF THE E-NAVIGATION SERVICE ROUTE-EXCHANGE
Authors: Porathe T
Published: October 2022

e-Navigation is a concept launched by the IMO in 2006. The point is to share digital data to the benefit of safety, efficiency and the environment. Every ship must make a voyage plan before leaving berth. Sharing such voyage plans between ships and between ships and shore is called route exchange and such a feature would allow alarms to be triggered both onboard and ashore if a ship deviate from its planned route, or if two ships plan to be at the same place at the same time. To visualise correspondence or lack of correspondence between the planed position and the real position the concept of Moving Havens is suggested. It is a visualisation tool designed to intuitively show if a ship falls out of its safety checked position. In case of route exchange and Ship Traffic Management it will facilitate for land-based operators or automation to distinguish dangerous situations. The concept is presented in this paper.
THE COMMUNITY OF SHIP-HANDLERS AND PILOTS: TRAINING, COLLABORATION AND GOOD
PRACTICE TODAY AND IN THE FUTURE
Authors: Wild R J , Lützhöft M
Published: October 2022

Collective learning and knowledge sharing take place by a group of people, with similar interests, customs, language and repertoire, within a specific domain. Much of the community knowledge or memory bank is based on shared narratives and task norms developed over time and there is a constant thread of working and learning collaboratively, also known as a ‘community of practice’. A survey was undertaken, designed to illuminate opinion and ascertain facts in a number of areas regarding community of practice theory. Ship-handlers and pilots were asked how they learned and acquired their skills, and the effectiveness of the various methods applicable to them. The survey yielded 113 responses with 61% fully completed. The participants highlighted the importance of a collaborative approach and indicated that over half of the necessary knowledge and skills is acquired whilst afloat, highlighting the importance of onboard training methods and tools to good practice.
Tasks, Automation, and the Rise in U.S. Wage Inequality
Authors: Acemoglu Daron , Restrepo Pascual
Published: October 2022

We document that between 50% and 70% of changes in the U.S. wage structure over the last four decades are accounted for by relative wage declines of worker groups specialized in routine tasks in industries experiencing rapid automation. We develop a conceptual framework where tasks across industries are allocated to different types of labor and capital. Automation technologies expand the set of tasks performed by capital, displacing certain worker groups from jobs for which they have comparative advantage. This framework yields a simple equation linking wage changes of a demographic group to the
task displacement it experiences. We report robust evidence in favor of this relationship and show that regression models incorporating task displacement explain much of the changes in education wage differentials between 1980 and 2016. The negative relationship between wage changes and task displacement is unaffected when we control for changes in market power, deunionization, and other forms of capital deepening and technology unrelated to automation. We also propose a methodology for evaluating the full general equilibrium effects of automation, which incorporate induced changes in industry composition and ripple effects due to task reallocation across different groups. Our quantitative evaluation explains how major changes in wage inequality can go hand‐in‐hand with modest productivity gains.
Presències d’absències: Palau i Fabre entre art, poesia i traducció

Palau i Fabre: art, literatura i vida al Picasso blau
Authors: Vallès Eduard
Published: October 2022

Dans ses études sur Picasso, Josep Palau i Fabre déploie un regard plein de nuances sur les œuvres de la période bleue et, sans toutefois négliger leurs composantes formelles, il en retire des lectures contribuant à enrichir les discours classiques sur le sujet. De toutes les phases de la création picassienne, les périodes bleue et rose sont sans doute celles qui contiennent la plus forte charge non seulement poétique mais aussi autobiographique, dans la mesure où l’œuvre de Picasso peut être lue comme une biographie monumentale. L’arlequin, pris comme contre-figure de l’artiste moderne face à une société industrielle en pleine décadence, sera la figure transversale que Palau i Fabre déchiffrera à l’aide de clés strictement picassiennes. Poète, Palau i Fabre fut aussi le biographe de Picasso. Il s’est révélé être le meilleur interprète des grandes peintures de la période bleue, très souvent cryptiques ou difficiles à appréhender, en s’appuyant sur un langage hautement suggestif qui s’écarte, très souvent, du conventionnalisme de l’histoire de l’art, et propose des lectures à la portée de ceux qui disposent de bases solides dans le champ plastique et littéraire.
L’art d’ensenyar la ciutat (Lisboa i Barcelona): entre lletres i imatges
Authors: Bou Enric
Published: October 2022

Cet article examine comment l'identité de Lisbonne et de Barcelone a été représentée dans des guides littéraires par deux types d'écrivains. Les premiers sont des guides écrits par des écrivains, destinés à un tourisme culturel naissant au début du XXe à partir de certains exemples : Fernando Pessoa, What the Tourist Should See [1925], Carles Soldevila, L’art d’ensenyar Barcelona (1929). Ces livres d'époque seront analysés en contraste avec d'autres plus contemporains, tels que José Cardoso Pires, Lisboa, Livro de Bordo (1997) et Manuel Vázquez Montalbán, Barcelonas (1987). De l'analyse de ces exemples découle une théorie de l'art de montrer les villes de Lisbonne et Barcelone: entre lettres et images.
O espaço editorial ibérico unido contra a águia napoleónica

Published: October 2022

Au lendemain du déchirement ibérique causé par l’ogre napoléonien, les liens fraternels sont renoués entre Espagne et Portugal. Cette alliance diplomatique et militaire donne lieu à des migrations et à des unions dans le milieu journalistique. Ces dernières débouchent sur une activité éditoriale à l’origine d’une polémique ibérique ainsi que sur une entraide typographique.
Jordi Sarsanedas i la cultura francesa: influències, traduccions i autotraduccions
Authors: Ardolino Francesco
Published: October 2022

Jordi Sarsanedas a été un maillon important entre la Catalogne et la France tout au long de la deuxième moitié du XXe siècle. Son engagement constant en tant qu’activiste culturel l’a amené à occuper des postes stratégiques pour la diffusion de la langue et de la littérature catalanes. Il a notamment été rédacteur en chef de Serra d’Or, doyen de l’Institució de les Lletres Catalanes, président de l’Ateneu Barcelonès et du PEN Català. La connaissance de l’anglais et de l’italien, après de longs séjours à Glasgow et à Milan, lui a fourni la préparation nécessaire pour devenir un ambassadeur littéraire exemplaire : cependant, son bagage culturel était surtout français, ce qui est manifeste tant dans son œuvre de création, en prose et en vers, que dans son travail de traducteur.
Abans del 1914: Què pensaven les militàncies obreres i republicanes?
Authors: Gabriel Pere
Published: October 2022

L’article présente un aperçu des cultures politiques actives au sein du mouvement ouvrier et des secteurs populaires catalans tout au long du XIXe siècle. Je donne un exemple diachronique basé sur le sens et les interprétations de ce que l’on entendait par socialisme tout au long du XIXe siècle. Cependant, une perspective à long terme ne signifie pas ignorer la chronologie, et je consacre une section aux militantismes ouvriers et populaires des huit cents ans avant le républicanisme et le catalanisme. L’article reflète également de manière approfondie le syndicalisme catalan tout au long du XIXe siècle.
Intel·lectuals, cultures (polítiques) i franquisme
Authors: Vilanova Francesc
Published: October 2022

Ces notes tentent de dessiner une complexité très large et remarquable : quels ont été les rapports entre le pouvoir politique (la dictature franquiste) et les acteurs culturels et intellectuels en Catalogne pendant près de quarante ans ? La première condition à prendre en compte est l’unicité du système politique (une dictature d’origine fasciste) et sa durée (presque quarante ans). La deuxième singularité est le rapport de cette dictature à une société et à un système culturel-intellectuel complexe : contre qui a été lancé le pouvoir de Franco ? Contre un système culturel hégémonique catalan et catalan jusqu'en 1939 ? Est-il apparu dans le processus de remplacement de ce système par un autre, purement espagnol, réactionnaire et fasciste ? Quelle a été la réponse du catalanisme et de l'anti-franquisme en général ? Pourrait-il travailler en marge, malgré et contre Franco ? Ce sont quelques-unes des questions soulevées dans le texte, qui sont des propositions de réponses, mais pas d’affirmations définitives.
IoT and Healthcare
Authors: Pandey Sunil Kr , Pandey Shweta
Published: October 2022

Internet of things (IoT) defines a network of virtual reality objects, software, and other technologies for the purpose of connecting and exchanging data with other devices and applications on the internet. The 'object' may refer to a connected medical device, a biochip transponder (think livestock), a solar panel, a connected motor with sensors that notify the driver of a number of potential problems (fuel, tire pressure, necessary adjustments, and more), or any object, sensory, competent to collect and transfer data over the network. The use of IoT technology is extensive, as it is flexible in almost any technology that can provide relevant information on its performance, and even environmental conditions that need to be monitored and remotely controlled. Other uses include the integration of IoT technology in hospital beds, provided with smart beds, equipped with special sensors to detect vital signs, blood pressure, oximeter, and body temperature, among others. This chapter attempts to explore and understand as how IoT is used in the healthcare sector.
Convolutional Neural Networks and Deep Learning Techniques for Glass Surface Defect Inspection
Authors: Villegas-Jaramillo Eduardo José , Orozco-Alzate Mauricio
Published: October 2022

Convolutional neural networks and their variants have revolutionized the field of image processing, allowing to find solutions to various types of problems in automatic visual inspection, such as, for instance, the detection and classification of surface defects in different types of industrial applications. In this chapter, a comparative study of different deep learning models aimed at solving the problem of classifying defects in images from a publicly available glass surface dataset is presented. Ten experiments were designed that allowed testing with several variants of the dataset, convolutional neural network architectures, residual learning-based networks, transfer learning, data augmentation, and (hyper)parameter tuning. The results show that the problem is difficult to solve due to both the nature of the defects and the ambiguity of the original class labels. All the experiments were analyzed in terms of different metrics for the sake of a better illustration and understanding of the compared alternatives.

Published: October 2022

Agriculture is not all about food and includes production, promotion, filtering, and sales of agricultural products and provides better employment opportunities to many people. Nowadays, precision agriculture is gaining more popularity, and its main goal is the availability to all common people at low cost with maximum crop productivity. It also helps in protecting the environment. IoT, internet of things, a technology that is developing in modern society, can be applied to agriculture. At present, IoT-enabled technology in agriculture has developed to a greater extent, particularly a drastic development of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and wireless sensor networks (WSN), and could lead to valuable but cost-effective applications for precision agriculture (PA), including crop monitoring with drones and intelligent spraying tests. In this chapter, the authors explore the various applications of artificial intelligence of things (AIoT) and provide detailed explanation on how AIoT may be implemented in agriculture effectively. Moreover, they highlight crucial future research and directions for AIoT.

Correlation of preoperative inferior vena cava diameter and inferior vena cava collapsibility index with preoperative fasting status, patient demography and general anaesthesia associated hypotension: A prospective, observational study
Authors: Agarwal Jyotsna , Panjiar Pratibha , Khanuja Samiksha , Annapureddy Sai Krishna R. , Saloda Ali , Butt Kharat M.
Published: October 2022

Background and Aims:

A definitive cutoff of inferior venacava (IVC) diameter in expiration (dIVCmax) and inferior vena cava collapsibility index (IVCCI) for predicting general anaesthesia associated hypotension (GAAH) is not yet determined. Primary objective of this study was to determine the correlation of dIVCmax and IVCCI, with GAAH. Other objectives were to determine the correlation of these IVC parameters with preoperative fasting duration, temperature and humidity. The correlation of dIVCmax with patient demography was also studied.

Methods:

A total of 110 adult patients undergoing elective surgery under general anaesthesia were included in the study. IVC ultrasonography was done in the preoperative room, 20 to 30 minutes before shifting the patient to the operating room. Hypotension at (hypo@) 2 minutes and 10 minutes after administering vecuronium was recorded.

Results:

Hundred and seven patients were analysed. A significant positive correlation was present between patient height and dIVCmax (r = 0.25, P = 0.009). Area under receiver operating characteristics curve was 0.595 (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.485–0.705) and 0.568 (95% CI 0.458–0.679) for dIVCmax and IVCCI for predicting hypo@2 min, with a diagnostic accuracy of 54% and 53%, respectively. dIVCmax ≤1.14 cm had a sensitivity of 31% and specificity of 87% in predicting GAAH. IVCCI ≥63.3% could predict GAAH with 31% sensitivity and 84% specificity. No significant correlation was found between preoperative IVC parameters and preoperative fasting or environmental factors.

Conclusion:

Both dIVCmax and IVCCI have poor diagnostic accuracy, with good specificity and low sensitivity in predicting GAAH. A steady formula for calculating baseline IVC diameter adjusted for patient demography is needed.
