COMPARATIVE REVIEW ABOUT HYPNOSIS & SLEEP
Authors: Maiti Dipankar
Published: July 2022

The long historical connotation between hypnosis and sleep is still reproduced in many of the standard induction
propositions that should enter into a deep, relaxed, soothing sleep. There are many counterparts between sleep and
hypnosis. The phenomenological resemblances between sleep and hypnosis raise many fascinating theoretical and methodological questions.
Behaviourally, sleep is easily predictable. The behavioural indication for sleep includes the person's general appearance, physical slackening, lack
of communication with and response to the external world, and special manifestations such as snoring. The electronecephalographic (EEG)
during hypnosis appears to be quite dissimilar from the basic EEG patterns of sleep stages 2, 3, and 4. Most authors agree that the EEG during
hypnosis is alike to waking EEG patterns entailing of desynchronized fast activity and alpha activity. Complex cognitive activity may block alpha.
The chapter abridges correlations between the sleep-induced response and factors of hypnotic behaviour.
HELICOBACTER PYLORI AND PERIODONTAL DISEASE: THE ORAL-GUT MICROBIAL AXIS
Authors: Elchuri Ananya , B Radhika , Golla Sujitha , Abhiraami Abhiraami
Published: July 2022

Periodontal disease is a collection of bacteria induced inammatory diseases of the teeth's supporting tissues. Because
periodontal disease is frequently accompanied with many systemic disorders that accelerate or predispose the disease's
course, periodontitis has a strong link to other areas of medicine. Acute gastritis, chronic atrophic gastritis, gastric atrophy, gastritis ulcers,
dysplasia, duodenal ulcer, gastric cancer, and gastric MALT lymphoma are among the most common gastroduodenal disorders associated with
Helicobacter pylori infections. Orofecally transferred organisms are the most prevalent. The oral cavity's potential involvement as a way of
transferring the microorganism and as an extra-gastric reservoir of H.pylori, which forms inside the oral plaque, the principal etiological agent of
periodontal disease, becomes clear through several studies. Given that the oral cavity of a patient with periodontal disease has elevated bacterial
plaque indices in connection with infrabony pockets, one could wonder if this represents a favorable environment for H. pylori colonization.
Another question to consider is if the presence of H.pylori in the oral cavity is a factor in the recurrence of gastric infections. As a result, may non-
surgical periodontal therapy combined with eliminating gastric therapy promote decontamination of the microorganism in the oral cavity,
resulting in greater prevention of relapse and re-infection of the gastric cavity? Is it possible that non-surgical periodontal treatment could prevent
stomach disorders caused by Helicobacter pylori? By integrating all of the relevant papers, this review aims to answer these questions.

Published: July 2022

Background: Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection and the resulting coronavirus
disease 2019 (Covid-19) have distressed tens of millions of people in a worldwide pandemic. Safe and effective
vaccinations are needed crucially.
Aim: To evaluate the efcacy of COVID-19 vaccination based on outcome of hospitalised COVID19 infected patients.
Material And Method: In this single hospital based retrospective observational study, we enrolled 225 patients admitted under Department of
Respiratory Medicine and General Medicine at Pacic Institute of Medical Sciences, Udaipur, Rajasthan between period of April 2021 to June
2021. Demographic data, co-morbidities, hospital stay and vaccination statuses were all collected. Outcome in terms of hospital stay and
mortality were compared among non-vaccinated, partially vaccinated and fully vaccinated patients.
Result: Among 225 covid-19 infected cases, 159 patients (70.7%) had not taken vaccine at the time of admission, out of which 38 (23.8%) did
not survive while rest 121 survived. Among 58 partially vaccinated patients, 24.1% did not survived and out of 8 fully vaccinated patients, 62.5%
patients recovered and 37.5% died. Among 159 non-vaccinated patients, 18.2% patients required more than 10 days of hospital stay while out of
58 partially vaccinated patients, 24.1% patients required more than 10 days hospital stay. However, among 8 fully vaccinated patients, none of
required more than 10 days stay.
Conclusion: A chi-square test of independence showed that there is no statistically signicant association between vaccination and mortality ( p
= 0.682), and hospital stay (p=0.687) but highly signicant association between vaccination with Age and Comorbidity (p = 0.000).However,
safe vaccination should remain an absolute priority.

Towards faster settlement in HTLC-based Cross-Chain Atomic Swaps
Authors: Mazumdar Subhra
Published: July 2022

Hashed Timelock (HTLC)-based atomic swap pro- tocols enable the exchange of coins between two or more parties without relying on a trusted entity. This protocol is like the American call option without premium. It allows the finalization of a deal within a certain period. This puts the swap initiator at liberty to delay before deciding to proceed with the deal. If she finds the deal unprofitable, she just waits for the time- period of the contract to elapse. However, the counterparty is at a loss since his assets remain locked in the contract. The best he can do is to predict the initiator’s behavior based on the asset’s price fluctuation in the future. But it is difficult to predict as cryptocurrencies are quite volatile, and their price fluctuates abruptly. We perform a game theoretic analysis of HTLC-based atomic cross-chain swap to predict whether a swap will succeed or not. From the strategic behavior of the players, we infer that this model lacks fairness. We propose Quick Swap, a two-party protocol based on hashlock and timelock that fosters faster settlement of the swap. The parties are required to lock griefing-premium along with the principal amount. If the party griefs, he ends up paying the griefing-premium. If a party finds a deal unfavorable, he has the provision to cancel the swap. We prove that Quick Swap is more participant-friendly than HTLC- based atomic swap. Our work is the first to propose a protocol to ensure fairness of atomic-swap in a cyclic multi-party setting.

Efficient Full Projector Compensation using Natural Images
Authors: Li Yuqi
Published: July 2022

 Practical full projector compensation allows the projection display to quickly adapt to textured projection surfaces and unexpected movement without interrupting the display procedure or requiring unacceptable waiting time. To achieve this by a projector and a RGB camera without adding any extra devices, a possible solution is correcting both color and geometry by directly capturing and analyzing the projected natural images content. In this work, we cast the full projector compensation as a non-negative constrained optimization problem, and present the first optimization-based framework that can handle both geometric calibration and radiometric compensation for a Projector-camera system(Procams) using only a few sampling images. The framework not only takes advantage of the ability of the deep neural network to approximate the channel-dependent response function of the projector, but also provides a flexible solution to adapt to the change of geometry and reflectance caused by movement. Benefit from the optimization-based scheme, our method can guarantee both accurate color calculation and efficient movement and reflectance estimation in a continuous projection display procedure. The experimental results show our method outperforms other state-of-the-art end-to-end full projector compensation methods with better-displayed image quality, less computational time, smaller memory consumption, more geometric accuracy, and far more compact network architecture.

Published: July 2022

The numerous possible applications for Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) Beacons constantly motivate researchers to come up with new methods to optimize the utilizations of beacons and improve the positioning accuracy while maintaining the cost to benefit balance. In this study, a novel method was proposed to optimize the localization of an indoor BLE positioning system with low beacon density in a real-world environment. The proposed method combines three major machine learning concepts (Semi-Supervised Learning, Informed Machine Learning, and Soft Computing) in its analysis pipeline and presents a different perspective to approaching Genetic Fuzzy Systems (GFSs). The presented method was competitive when benchmarked against a fully connected neural network and a kNN model. 
Physics-based Learning of Parameterized Thermodynamics from Real-time Thermography
Authors: El-Kebir Hamza , Lee Yongseok , Bentsman Joseph
Published: July 2022

Progress in automatic control of thermal processes and real-time estimation of heat penetration into live tissue has long been limited by the difficulty of obtaining high-fidelity thermodynamic models. Traditionally, in complex thermodynamic systems, it is often infeasible to estimate the thermophysical parameters of spatiotemporally varying processes, forcing the adoption of model-free control architectures. This comes at the cost of losing any robustness guarantees, and implies a need for extensive real-life testing. In recent years, however, infrared cameras and other thermographic equipment have become readily applicable to these processes, allowing for a real-time, non-invasive means of sensing the thermal state of a process. In this work, we present a novel physics-based approach to learning a thermal process's dynamics directly from such real-time thermographic data, while focusing attention on regions with high thermal activity. We call this process, which applies to any higher-dimensional scalar field, attention-based noise robust averaging (ANRA). Given a partial-differential equation model structure, we show that our approach is robust against noise, and can be used to initialize optimization routines to further refine parameter estimates. We demonstrate our method on several simulation examples, as well as by applying it to electrosurgical thermal response data on in vivo porcine skin tissue.

Published: July 2022

This work studies the potential of transforming STEM education with the integration of recent STEM learning technologies. STEM is the focus of the education system as it is the driver for creation, innovation, and invention. However, the delay in the introduction of STEM in the education system impacts the motivation of youths to take up STEM courses, thereby adversely affecting the enrolment into the field and proliferation. Furthermore, the digital divide among the youths in urban and rural settings also plays a vital role in creating the gap when it comes to STEM education.

Therefore, this work analyses the experimental-based case study to assess the impact of early access to STEM educational tools in ensuring the youths understand the potential of STEM. Priliminary study to understand the pupil's perception on existing method of STEM teaching-learning is carried out. The general perception is that students' are not able to visualize, neither they are able to understand the potential of STEM. Hence, does not play significant role in motivating the pupil to take up the STEM fields.

On the other hand, as part of the study, same group who responded in preliminary study took part in STEM workshops. Basic concepts and applications of automation, the internet of things, and AI were considered for the students to visualize the potential of STEM education. STEMSEL microncontroller and runlinc- an online IoT and AI application development platform were used as study tool. Students demonstrated their ability to discover their own creativity and innovation using the platform where 3D model (design, development, and deployment) concept was inculcated. The participant students were from schools in rural location who do have access to such learning platforms. On completion of workshops, pupils' (students) understanding of STEM, their perception towards it, and their visualization on the potential of STEM education in making the impact for social good drastically improved. Therefore, the study indicated that the early access to hands-on educational tools, integration into teaching-learning of STEM would bring transformation in STEM education. Such exposure would also motivate youths take up STEM fields in higher education, thereby enhancing the enrollment.

A study was conducted on 48 guinea pigs (24 females: 522.21±28.88g and 24 males: 566.75±43.13g) of local breed of Cameroon to evaluate the mineral content of their meat. Animals were fed with Pennisetum purpureum ad libitum supplemented with one of the experimental diets: ML 0% (Control), ML 8%, ML 10% and ML 12% containing respectively 0, 8, 10 and 12 % of cassava leaf meal (CLM). Each of the 4 diets was assigned to 4 groups of animals corresponding to the 4 treatments/Diets and these animals were distributed in a completely randomized design with 12 replicates per ration, six of which were per sex and per group. After sacrifice of animals at 22nd weeks, the meat from the Loin, Thigh and Shoulder, were analyzed. Results revealed that mineral contents of females meat were higher than those of males: Sodium content was highest (p<0.05) in the Shoulder (48.34%) of females fed Control diet; Females fed ML 12% diet registered at Shoulder’s level higher (p<0.05) concentrations of Calcium and Iron (14.64 and 46.78 % respectively) just like in the same part, Potassium and Zinc contents were the most (p<0.05) abundant (9.49 and 4.11% respectively). This study revealed that guinea pig’s meat is particularly poor in Magnesium (0.95%). The greatest (p<0.05) Iron content was at shoulder’s level (46.78 mg / gDM) of females receiving ML 12%. These results suggest that CLM can improve mineral content of guinea pig’s meat.

ABSTRAKCacing Ascaridia galli merupakan parasit pada ayam yang menyebabkan kerugian ekonomi bagi peternak. Harga obat anthelmintik komersial yang mahal dan terjadinya resistensi obat menyebabkan penelitian anthelmintik herbal menjadi langkah yang strategis. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh pemberian ekstrak kunyit (Curcuma domestica) terhadap mortalitas cacing A. galli secara In Vitro. A. galli diperoleh dari rumah potong ayam di Kecamatan Dukun, Kabupaten Magelang dan dibagi menjadi 3 kelompok untuk penelitian in vitro,masing-masing kelompok terdiri dari 9 ekor cacing A.galli dengan 3x pengulangan. Kelompok I diperlakukan dengan ekstrak kunyit,kelompok II sebagai kontrol negatif (Aquadestilata) dan kelompok ke III Kontrol positif dengan Piperazin Citrate-Phenothiazine .Mortalitas A. galli dicatat setiap 15 menit sampai mortalitas cacing adalah 100%.Hasil kemudian di analisis dengan Anova. Berdasarkan uji in vitro didapatkan hasil dengan aquadestilata mortalitas rata-rata waktu 47,77 menit/ekor, dengan larutan Piperazin Citrate-Phenothiazine mortalitas rata-rata waktu 24,44 menit/ekor dan dengan ekstrak kunyit mortalitas rata-rata waktu 31,66 menit/ekor. Pemberian ekstrak kunyit berpengaruh terhadap mortalitas cacing A. galli dan mempunyai potensi sebagai anthelmintik.Kata kunci: anthelmintik, Ascaridia galli, ekstrak kunyit, in vitro, mortalitasABSTRACTAscaridia galli worm was chicken parasite that inflicted significant economic loss for breeders. Expensive commercial anthelmintic drug and drug resistance were the reasons why herbal anthelmintic study became strategic. The study aimed at finding out the effect of the application of turmeric (Curcuma domestica) extract on the mortality of the A. galli in vitro. The A. galli were obtained from chicken slaughtering house in Dukun subdistrict of Magelang district and classified into 3 groups for in vitro study. Each of the groups consisted of 9 A. galli worms with 3 repetitions. Group I was treated using turmeric, Group II was negative control (Aquadestilata) and Group III was positive control with Piperazin Citrate-Phenothiazine treatment. The mortality of the worms was recorded every 15 minutes until it reached 100%. The results were then analyzed using Anova. The results of the in vitro test showed that the Aquadestilata gave mean mortality of 47.77 minutes/chicken, the Piperazin Citrate-Phenothiazine solution gave mean mortality of 24.44 minutes/chicken, and the turmeric extract gave mean mortality of 31.66 minutes/chicken. The application of the turmeric extract had significant effect on the mortality of the A. galli worm and had anthelmintic potential.Keywords: anthelmintic, Ascaridia galli, turmeric extract, in vitro, mortality.

BACKGROUND: Birch pollen is one of the main allergens in central Russia, Europe, North America, and several other regions. Allergens contained in birch pollen often cause immunoglobulin E cross-reactivity with homologous proteins both in other trees and in various foods. Allergen immunotherapy is currently the only allergy-treating method that directly affects various links in disease pathogenesis, thereby changing the bodys response to the action of the allergen. The clinical effectiveness of allergen immunotherapy reaches 80%90% and is expressed by decreased clinical manifestations and the need for drugs. An allergoid, unlike an allergen, retains its immunogenicity, but significantly loses its allergenicity, which makes it safer for use with allergen immunotherapy.
AIM: To obtain an allergoid from the pollen of silver birch (Btula pndula) by processing it with glutaraldehyde.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: The purified allergen isolated from pollen, by degreasing and watersalt extraction, was dissolved in phosphate-buffered saline at 7.5 pH and polymerized in 0.1% of glutaraldehyde solution. Stabilization was conducted with a sodium borohydride solution.
RESULTS: The allergoid significantly reduced its allergenicity compared to the original allergen after assessing the specific activity using a competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.
CONCLUSIONS: This study obtained an allergen of the silver birch. The resulting allergen contains major and minor antigens of silver birch (Bet v 1, Bet v 2, Bet v 3, Bet v 6, and Bet v 7). Based on these, an allergoid was obtained by polymerization with glutaraldehyde. The resulting allergoid has a large molecular weight and a low allergenic activity, in comparison with the original allergen. Thereby, this allergoid can become the basis for obtaining new allergen immunotherapy preparations.
