Authors: Гриневич О. И. , Буряк А. К.
Published: July 2024

Изучена адсорбция 1Н-пиразола, 1Н-имидазола и 1Н-1,2,4-триазола на поверхности однородного графена с помощью теории функционала плотности. Рассчитаны атомные заряды по методу Малликена для индивидуальных азолов, согласно которым электронная структура 1Н-имидазола с выраженным диполем является наиболее благоприятной для адсорбции на поляризуемом графене. Построены кривые потенциалов Леннард-Джонса, из которых найдены значения энтальпий адсорбции азолов. Оценены электронные возмущения, возникающие как изменения электронной плотности в ходе связывания с графеном. Проведено сравнение полученных результатов с литературными данными о характере адсорбции азолов на неполярных сорбентах. Отмечена необходимость учета распределения электронной плотности при объяснении механизма адсорбции на поверхности графена.
MODELLING OF THE ANHYSTERETIC MAGNETIZATION CURVE OF FERROMAGNETIC MATERIAL AND THE POSSIBILITY OF USING ITS RESULT FOR MAGNETIC STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS
Authors: Sandomirski S. G
Published: July 2024

The internal demagnetization coefficient Ni occurs in ferromagnetic material due to mechanical stresses and inhomogeneity in its structure and reliably characterizes its changes. But to determine Ni, a cycle of numerous magnetic effects on the material and precision measurements of its magnetization is carried out to construct a anhysteretic magnetization curve. This complicates and reduces the accuracy of Ni determination. In the article, to simplify the determination of the anhysteretic magnetization curve of a material and its Ni on the basis of reliable physical assumptions, mathematically precise formulas are developed using the results of measurements of its technical saturation magnetization, remanent magnetization and coercive force, which can be measured by standard techniques with minimum errors. They are used to analyze the effect of tempering temperature and hardness HRC of steel 30 on its Ni.
Musical Poliphony of Modernist Writing: British / Ukrainian Women’s Perspective
Authors: Polishchuk Nadiya
Published: July 2024

The subject of scientific research is a comparative analysis of the British and Ukrainian women writers short stories from the perspective of the interaction of literature and music in the period of modernism. This approach involves considering music as an expression of the specific modernist worldview of writers, passed through the prism of the inner “Self” of the female personality. It is based on the literary analysis of the works of V. Woolf “String Quartet”, K. Mansfield “The Singing Lesson”, “Weak Heart” and “Spring Pictures”, D. Vikonska “Polonaise D-moll Chopin (op. 71, No. 1)”, “Prelude of fis-dur No. 2, Vasil Barvinsky”, “Music” and I. Vilde “Pianist”, “Oriental Melody” and “Bizarre Heart”. The study of the phenomenon of musicalization of prose, based on the concept of the famous intermedialist W. Wolf, allows us to identify various forms of its presentation. In the content aspect, we can talk about the presence of two varieties of thematization of music in mentioned literary texts: intra- and paratextual thematization. In the structural aspect, all three forms of imitation are represented: verbal music; imaginary content analogy, expressed mainly in the associative imagery of water (love); a formal and structural analogy, presented as an imitation of musical macroforms (quartet and fuget) and microforms (compositional technique of polyphony). A notable feature of this study is the discovery of original creative parallels in the poetics of modernist women writers – simultaneously at the intersection and within the national literatures. Imaginary content analogies are related to the writing style of Ukrainian and British women writers – D. Vikonska and V. Woolf, as well as I. Vilde and K. Mansfield; the imitation form of musical microforms reveals the internal stylistic similarity of both British and Ukrainian literatures: amplification constructions in V. Woolf and K. Mansfield writings, on the one side and syntactic modifications of key reference lexemes in D. Vikonska and I. Vilde, on the other side.

Disperse dyes, primarily used for dyeing synthetic fibres like polyester, are characterized by their poor solubility in water, which necessitates the use of dispersing agents; however, environmental concerns arise due to their low biodegradability and potential toxicity, thus posing significant challenges in waste management and pollution control. This study explores the dyeing performance of knitted polyester with dispersed dyes, employing natural auxiliaries as substitutes for conventional commercial chemicals to promote an environmentally friendly approach. Citric acid (derived from lemon), sodium citrate (prepared from citric acid and sodium bicarbonate), and glucose (extracted from date fruits) replace commercial acetic acid, dispersing agent, and hydrolyze. Dyeing is conducted using the high-temperature and high-pressure methods with consistent parameters. A comparative study of the dyeing performance of the natural auxiliaries with the existing commercial chemicals was assessed concerning colour strength, different fastness properties, and the FT-IR diagram. Proton NMR is utilized for the structural determination of date fruit and lemon components. UV-Vis spectral data show that adding sodium citrate to the dispersed dye solution drops the absorbance value from 1.1457 to 0.58916, confirming sodium citrate's efficacy as a dispersing agent. With lower recipe costs, the environmentally friendly approach using natural auxiliaries exhibits comparable dyeing performance and excellent fastness properties, providing a sustainable alternative to traditional methods.

The subspecies Roselin githagine Bucanetesgithagineus zedlitzi is found in arid and semi-arid environments of North Africa. In this study, we tracked this species in an urban landscape within a Saharan region to evaluate the impact of the urban gradient on its distribution, to characterize the reproductive parameters in an urban environment, and to report the first case of nesting of this species, in an urban setting. Over a seven-month study period, we regularly visited 90 listening points distributed in three habitats (urban, suburban, and rural). Statistical analysis of the data, using one way analysis of variance (ANOVA) for recent counts in the three habitats, showed a significant result with a p-value of 0.04, indicating a significant difference between the different habitats. Furthermore, the study of the reproductive parameters of this species revealed that the population had a late laying date and relatively larger egg dimensions compared to other populations studied in Algeria.

Sesame crop is widely recognized as contributor in global oil production. Potassium (K) and zinc (Zn) being responsible for oil synthesis pathways were applied in a field trial at agronomy research farm of Agriculture University Peshawar to assess their effects on sesame during summer season 2022. Four Zn foliar sprays (0, 2, 4 and 6 %) and four K levels (0, 60, 80 and 100 kg ha-1) were tested in a randomized complete design with three replications. Results exhibited that K and Zn interaction for all parameters was non-significant. However, K and Zn at 60 kg ha-1 and 4 % Zn ha-1 solely applied enhanced agronomic and quality attributes such as plant height (174.0 and 176.2 cm), branches/ plant (12.3 and 12.0), capsules/ plant (70 and 71), seeds/capsule (55 and 55), thousand seeds weight (3.0 and 3.0 g), flowering days (53 and 52), maturity days (104 and 102) biological yield (3583 and 3585 kg ha-1), seed yield (872 and 861 kg ha-1), oil content (47.4 and 48.3 %), oil yield (417 and 416 kg ha 1 ) respectively. Moreover, 100 kg K recorded higher potassium content (3.85 %) while Zn spray at 4 % noted higher Zn content (1.63 %) and seed protein content (20.1 %). Correlation analysis showed positive impact of increasing seed yield on all quality attributes. Thus, applying K at 60 kg and 4 % Zn foliar ha-1 is recommended for improved yield and quality of sesame in agro-climatic conditions of Peshawar region.

LEGAL PROTECTION OF DEBTORS IN FISHING GEAR PROCUREMENT AGREEMENTS FROM A MAQASHID PERSPECTIVE SYARI'AH (Case Study on Bonang Fishermen, Demak)
Authors: Anwar Rosikhan
Published: July 2024

This study aims to describe the problems and impacts of the procurement of fishing gear in the Bonang Subdistrict, Demak Regency community in terms of maqashid shari'ah. Efforts can be made to improve the fishing gear procurement agreement to comply with applicable laws. This research uses a legal sociology or empirical juridical research approach. The data collection techniques used are observation, documentation, and interviews. The results of this study indicate that Legal problems that occur in the fishing gear procurement agreement in Bonang Sub-District, Demak Regency, arise for several reasons: the debtor does not have capital, the deal is only made based on mutual trust, there is no black on white. The capital provider gets a share of 1 crew member every time the juragan goes to sea with the principal debt still the debtor's responsibility (juragan). The creditor does not want to because he will no longer receive a share of the crew when the debt is repaid. In addition, it often happens that when the jagan goes bankrupt and the fishing gear is sold, the debtor does not return the total amount of money, sometimes only 50 percent. Agreements in conventional law are regulated in Article 1320 of the Civil Code. Meanwhile, in Sharia economic law, the agreement leads to usury because an addition (mbageni) in the debt and credit agreement for procuring fishing gear is detrimental to the debtor. In the maqashid shari'ah perspective, some practices deviate from Islamic law in the form of additions (interest) in mbageni. This practice is more like a conditional debt detrimental to the debtor.

Spatio-Temporal Analysis of the Roadside Transportation-Related Air Quality (StarTraq 2022): Data-Driven Exposure Analysis by Transportation Modes
Authors: Kwon Jaymin , Ahn Yushin , Cheung Steve
Published: July 2024

Particulate matter (PM) pollution poses significant health risks, influenced by various meteorological factors and seasonal variations. This study investigates the impact of temperature and other meteorological variables on PM10 and PM2.5 levels in Fresno County, known for high air pollution. Multiple linear regression (MLR) and generalized additive models (GAMs) assess the significance of these relationships. Analyzing data from Fresno County, we examine PM10 and PM2.5 levels across "hot" (June to August) and "cool" (September to May) seasons. Findings indicate PM10, both MLR and GAM models identify statistically significant variables, excluding temperature and wind direction in each season. However, during the hot season, both temperature and wind direction become statistically significant predictors of PM10. These variables remain insignificant during the cool season. For PM2.5, the MLR model suggests that temperature, humidity, and wind direction are not significant throughout the entire season, while the GAM model finds only wind direction to be insignificant. The temperature is highly significant for hot and cool seasons under the MLR model, whereas humidity becomes insignificant under the GAM model. Model performance is evaluated using measures of fit, indicating that MLR outperforms GAM for PM10 during the entire and hot seasons, while GAM performs better during the cool season. For PM2.5, GAM outperforms MLR during the cool seasons, with no clear distinction in performance during the hot season. The regional air quality PM2.5 at Fresno and meteorological conditions were closely related to the concentration of on-road particulate matter. From the intercity monitoring of PM2.5 and BC, on-road concentrations were statistically significantly higher than those measured in-vehicle (p<.001). Therefore, in-vehicle particle concentrations were safe compared to the on-road concentrations. In most cases, PM2.5 on the highways was higher than PM2.5 on the local roadways. On-road transportation-related particles measured in the San Joaquin Valley were significantly higher than those measured in the Bay Area. The results from a daily dose of transportation-related PM2.5 estimation based on a 2-hour commute and an 8-hour trip demonstrated that children under 11 years of age are more vulnerable than adults. In-vehicle daily doses were significantly lower than the on-road daily doses. This study highlights the importance of considering seasonal variations and meteorological factors when modeling PM pollution. It underscores PM's sensitivity to temperature and wind direction in Fresno County's hot season, offering insights for effective pollution management from transportation and policy implementation to mitigate the adverse health effects.

Published: July 2024

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common digestive tract malignant tumors, which has a high mortality rate especially for patients with CRC recurrence. However, the pathological mechanism of recurrence of CRC is unclear. In this study, we integrated multiple cohort datasets and databases to clarify and verify potential key candidate biomarkers and signal transduction pathways in recurrence of CRC. As results, 628 DEGs were identified from GSE33113 and GSE2630 datasets and their function and pathway were analyzed. 14 hub genes related to CRC recurrence were screened from and their influence on survival were analyzed. Two key genes (IL1B and DDAH1) regarded as prognostic factors were further screened. Relapse-free survival results indicated the interaction between IL1B and DDAH1 genes and B cells was the most obvious and correlated with survival, with statistical significance ([Formula: see text] 0.05). Specially, cox regression analysis suggested that patients with T1 and N0 stages had a higher risk of recurrence than patients with T2 and N1. This work would provide potential value for prognosis, and would promote molecular targeting therapy for CRC recurrence.

Authors: Liang Ming , Qiu Haolin , Ou Bing , Wu Jiayi , Zhao Xinbao , Luo Baoming
Published: July 2024

OBJECTIVE: The study aimed to evaluate the utility of qualitative and quantitative analysis employing contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in predicting the WHO/ISUP grade of small (≤4 cm) clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCCs). METHODS: Patients with small ccRCCs, confirmed by histological examination, underwent preoperative CEUS and were classified into low- (grade I/II) and high-grade (grade III/IV) groups. Qualitative and quantitative assessments of CEUS were conducted and compared between the two groups. Diagnostic performance was assessed using receiver operating characteristic curves. RESULTS: A total of 72 patients were diagnosed with small ccRCCs, comprising 23 individuals in the high-grade group and 49 in the low-grade group. The low-grade group exhibited a significantly greater percentage of hyper-enhancement compared to the high-grade group (79.6% VS 39.1%, P < 0.05). The low-grade group showed significantly higher relative index values for peak enhancement, wash-in area under the curve, wash-in rate, wash-in perfusion index, and wash-out rate compared to the high-grade group (all P < 0.05). The AUC values for qualitative and quantitative parameters in predicting the WHO/ISUP grade of small ccRCCs ranged from 0.676 to 0.756. CONCLUSIONS: Both qualitative and quantitative CEUS analysis could help to distinguish the high- from low-grade small ccRCCs.

Published: July 2024

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate the effects of six weeks of continuous training and Nutrition Bio-shield (NBS) Superfood Supplementation on the state of oxidative stress by the expression of Nrf2, NOX4, superoxide dismutase, and malondialdehyde genes in the lungs of rats after methamphetamine withdrawal. METHODS: Forty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into five groups (n = 8, per group), undergoing methamphetamine administration (six weeks, 5 mg/kg ip, and once per day) followed by a 21-day withdrawal period. The rats were supplemented NBS superfood at a dosage of 25 g/kg per day for six weeks. The training protocol was 30 minutes of daily continuous training (treadmill running), five days a week for six weeks. The regimen escalated from a pace of 3 m/min for the initial 5 minutes, to 5 m/min for the following 5 minutes, culminating at 8 m/min for the remainder of the session, all at a 0° incline. A one-way analysis of variance was performed to analyze the gene expression of Nrf2, NOX4, MDA, and SOD in the lungs tissue of rats. RESULTS: The results indicated that, in the experimental groups which underwent continuous training and NBS Superfood supplementation, the expression of the Nrf2 gene exhibited a significant elevation compared to the control group (P < 0.05), while the NOX4, MDA, and SOD genes expression exhibited a significant decline in comparison to the control group (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: In general, both exercise interventions and NBS superfood supplementation, when employed separately or in combination after methamphetamine withdrawal, can enhance the state of oxidative stress in the lung.
Meta-analysis of interleukin-10 gene polymorphisms and tuberculosis susceptibility: Insights from recent studies
Authors: Thomas Sheena Mariam , Muruganantham Jethendra Kumar , Veerabathiran Ramakrishnan
Published: July 2024

BACKGROUND:

Tuberculosis (TB) remains a universal health problem with significant morbidity and mortality. Understanding the genetic factors affecting TB susceptibility is crucial for effective prevention and treatment. Interleukin-10 ( IL-10), a regulatory cytokine, may influence TB pathogenesis through genetic variations.

METHODS:

The PubMed, Embase, and Google Scholar databases were searched to find studies on the relationship between IL-10 gene variants and tuberculosis. Relevant studies from 2016 to 2024 were identified through database searches. The selected case-control studies met the inclusion criteria. Software such as Review Manager was used to analyze quantitative data, with statistical significance set at [Formula: see text] 0.05. We calculated odds ratios and their respective confidence intervals to evaluate the associations.

RESULTS:

Nine studies examined IL-10 gene polymorphisms (rs1800871 and rs1800872) in TB susceptibility. The present study did not show a notable association between IL-10 gene polymorphisms and TB among all genetic models (allelic, homozygote, heterozygote, dominant, and recessive). The obtained [Formula: see text]-value [Formula: see text] 0.05 indicates an insignificant association between both gene polymorphisms of IL-10. An OR-1.13; 95% CI-0.85, 1.50 was obtained for the SNP rs1800871, whereas an OR-1.02; 95% CI-0.75, 1.40 was obtained for the SNP rs1800872.

CONCLUSION:

Our meta-analysis revealed no significant association between IL-10 gene polymorphisms and TB susceptibility, suggesting that these variations may not significantly contribute to TB susceptibility. Further research with a larger sample size and diverse ethnicities is needed to explore additional genetic variations and their implications in TB pathogenesis.

Authors: Danesh Hamed , Karimi Mohammad Bagher , Arasteh Bahman
Published: July 2024

Crypto-jacking attack is a novel type of cyber-attack on the internet that has emerged because of the popularity of digital currencies. These attacks are the most common type of attacks in the cryptocurrency field because of their specific features such as easy scenario, un-traceability, and ease of secrecy. In crypto-jacking attacks, it is common to embed malicious code inside website scripts. Different techniques have been provided to deal with Crypto-jacking attacks, but crypto-jacking attackers bypass them by limiting resources. The crypto-mining services provided on the internet are legal, and due to the anonymous nature of cryptocurrencies, client identification is a challenging task. Improving the accuracy and performance of the Crypto-jacking attack detection methods are the main objectives of this study. In this paper, a hybrid network-based method to identify these attacks to achieve better and more accurate results. The proposed solution (CMShark) is a combination of machine learning (ML) models, IP blacklisting and payload inspection methods. In the ML model, the packets are classified using size patterns; in IP blacklisting, attacks are detected based on known infected addresses and infected scripts. In payload inspection, the provided information on the packet payload is searched for any suspicious keywords. The proposed method relies solely on the network and is deployed on the edge of the network, making it infrastructureindependent. The proposed detection model reaches an accuracy score of 97.02%, an F1-score of 96.90% a ROC AUC score of 97.20% in input NetFlow classification; and a 93.98% accuracy score, 94.30% F1-score and 97.30% ROC AUC score in output NetFlow classification.

We investigated control group and adults of both sexes (age: 50–75 years) with a confirmed diagnosis of the claudication. Men and women in ratio 1 : 1 in control and target groups.

RESULTS:

The research results showed that the original microcirculation coefficient calculated according to our algorithm in patients with intermittent claudication was 70% better than in the control group and 120% of patients were worse than in patients with Limb-Threatening Ischemia.

CONCLUSION:

Our research team created an original so called coefficient of microcirculation. In order to determine it, we studied the blood flow in the pulsations on the left and right side of the posterior tibial arteries of the legs at rest (names of lines SIN F, DEX F) and during post-ischemic hyperemia in the same lines. The study of microcirculation based on the microcirculation coefficient is very informative. The importance of this methodology for studying the total peripheral blood flow and arteriolar response is due to fundamental and clinical developments, as well as financial costs. Considering the technique described in the article can be easily mastered by medical personnel, it is easy to use in the inpatient and outpatient sectors, its use does not require large areas of the medical facility, the equipment is not expensive and the test itself does not cause inconvenience to the patient, then we can recommend including the described method is included in the list of functional diagnostic tests as a direct and quantitative method for determining microcirculation (without special costs on the part of medical institutions, insurance companies and the patient).

Kejadian Kurang Energi Kronik (KEK) adalah kondisi kesehatan yang ditandai dengan asupan energi yang tidak mencukupi dalam jangka waktu yang lama, yang mengakibatkan penurunan berat badan dan gangguan pertumbuhan pada ibu hamil. KEK dapat berdampak buruk pada kesehatan ibu dan perkembangan janin, termasuk risiko bayi lahir dengan berat badan rendah dan komplikasi kehamilan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui apakah ada hubungan pengetahuan ibu hamil dengan kejadian KEK. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain penelitian Case Control. Sampel peneltian ini berjumlah 36 ibu hamil di Puskesmas Antang Perumnas menggunakan metode total sampling dimana sampel yang diambil adalah seluruh ibu hamil KEK pada bulan April hingga Mei tahun 2024 sebanyak 18 ibu hamil (kelompok kasus) dan 18 ibu hamil tidak KEK (kelompok kontrol). Intrumen penelitian adalah berupa kuesioner penelitian. Analisa data menggunakan SPSS dengan uji Chi Square. Variabel dependen Kejadian KEK dan Variabel Independen Pengetahuan Ibu Hamil. Hasil penelitian diperoleh Nilai p-value 0,018 OR= 182 menunjukkan bahwa p-value < 0,05, yang artinya ada hubungan yang signifikan antara pengetahuan ibu hamil dengan kejadian kurang energi kronik di Puskesmas Antang Perumnas. Diharapkan hasil penelitian ini menjadi acuan dalam menunjang program ANC dalam penanggulangan KEK dan mengevaluasi program yang telah ada.

Penyuluhan kesehatan gigi pada anak sekolah merupakan salah satu strategi efektif dalam mencegah terjadinya penyakit gigi dan mulut. Penyuluhan kesehatan gigi merupakan tindakan pencegahan primer yang dilakukan sebelum terjadinya suatu penyakit. Salah satu upaya yang dapat dilakukan untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan dan keterampilan anak sekolah dalam menyikat gigi yaitu dengan penggunaan media audio visual. Media ini tidak hanya efektif dalam menyampaikan informasi secara langsung, tetapi juga dapat dijadikan alat penyuluhan yang dapat disebarkan secara luas. Penggunaan teknologi ini dapat meningkatkan daya serap dan pemahaman audiens, terutama pada anak-anak yang cenderung lebih responsif terhadap media visual. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui pengaruh penggunaan video edukasi menyikat gigi terhadap pengetahuan dan keterampilan siswa SD Berbt. Muhammdiyah Berua Kota Makassar. Jenis penelitian ini adalah penelitian kuantitatif dengan pendekatan quasy experiment. Teknik pengambilan sampel yang digunakan adalah total sampling pada semua kelas 6 SD Berbt. Muhammadiyah II Berua sebanyak 36 siswa.  Penggunaan video edukasi menyikat gigi secara signifikan meningkatkan pengetahuan siswa SD tentang pentingnya menjaga Kesehatan gigi dan mulut dan penggunaan video edukasi juga secara signifikan meningkatakan keterampilan praktis siswa dalam menyikat gigi.

Introduction: The fast SARS-CoV-2 spread and high mutation rates during viral replication led to virus diversification and the emergence of new variants. Genomic surveillance has been key to monitoring SARS-CoV-2 variants across the globe. Immune suppression, as observed in cancer patients, is a risk factor for SARS-CoV-2 infection and severe COVID-19. Objective: To report a two-year genomic surveillance of SARS-CoV-2 in cancer patients followed up at the Brazilian National Cancer Institute, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Method: Prospective observational study with 384 SARS-CoV-2+ swabs specimens collected and evaluated between October 2020 and September 2022. SARS-CoV-2 spike was analyzed by PCR and Sanger sequencing to determine the infecting variant. Results: Most of the patients had solid organ malignancies (298/384; 77.6%) and 16.1% (62/384) had metastatic disease. Severe COVID-19 cases accounted for 29.4% (113/384) and 27.1% (104/384) of deaths registered. The most common SARS-CoV-2 infecting variants were Gamma (n=137) and Omicron (BA.1) (n=73). The variant distribution overtime was similar to what has been reported for the general population of Brazil in the same period. When patients’ cancer topographies were analyzed, it was found that Gamma infected patients with breast (47/137; 34.3%) and cervical (11/137; 8%) cancer were more frequent than other variants, while Omicron predominated among rectum (10/122; 8.2%) and prostate (8/122; 6.6%) cancer compared to other variants. Conclusion: Genomic surveillance is an important tool for identifying and evaluating the impact of SARS-CoV-2 variants, and should continue especially in immunosuppressed populations.
