Promotion of China's Internet Application Adaptation to Aging Policy
Authors: HUANg XINGYAN
Published: October 2022

In recent years, the number of elderly people in China has grown rapidly, but there are still many elderly people who do not have access to the Internet or use smartphones. It is difficult for them to fully enjoy the convenience brought by intelligent services and to integrate into the information society. The purpose of this paper is to assess the current status of Internet application aging in China and explore further development strategies. Based on the public policy analysis method, the paper starts from the current situation of promoting the aging of Internet application products in China, and conducts research from three aspects: the concept of Internet application aging, the current situation of promotion, and the recommendations, and explores the research on Internet application adaptation in China. Through research, it is found that although China's Internet aging policy has achieved many results in promotion, there are also some problems, such as the lack of the perspective of the elderly, the low enthusiasm of enterprises, and the lack of government supervision. Therefore, it is necessary to further strengthen technological innovation, strengthen multi-party cooperation, pay more attention to the needs of the elderly, and continuously improve the humanization and aging-appropriate level of Internet applications, so as to help the elderly better adapt to and use intelligent services. The research results can provide some suggestions for the promotion and improvement of the Internet application aging policy.

Published: October 2022

The Gambia is one of the least developed countries in sub-Sahara Africa. In response to the COVID-19 outbreak, the Gambian government implemented a lockdown and various restrictions in 2020, but the impacts on Gambians’ livelihood remained unclear. With the gradual relaxation of the lockdown and restrictions, we were able to conduct the first questionnaire surveys to interview 140 fishermen, 140 fishmongers and 80 customers in the artisanal fisheries sector, and 150 students (grade 9-12) and 14 teachers in the education sector, to assess the impact of the pandemic on their socio-economic and personal well-being. Both fishermen and fishmongers experienced a drop in sales, whereas customers had to pay more during the pandemic. Illegal fishing, lack of policy and regulations and price hikes were among the main concerns for the artisanal fisheries sector, although the respondents did not feel a change in their personal well-being due to the pandemic. Students and teachers did not have the necessary training or resources to conduct remote learning during the pandemic, and both attendance and academic performance declined as a result. Access to the internet and learning materials was very limited, and 10% of the students ceased learning activities altogether. 19% of students and 50% of teachers experienced poor mental health during the pandemic. The majority of the students were concerned about the impact of the pandemic on their education, whereas most teachers were concerned about their finances and psychological conditions. Nearly a quarter of the students relied on unofficial channels to learn about the pandemic, making them susceptible to misinformation. To safeguard Gambian’s well-being against future pandemics or similar large-scale disruptions, we recommend better fishery monitoring and policy enforcement, more fish storage facilities, improving digital learning capacity, providing mental health care in schools, and devising effective communication campaigns about the pandemic.

New heterometallic complexes of Сo(II) and Nd(III) with carboxylic acids (succinic, oxalic) and acetylacetone in the presence of phenanthroline or α,α'-dipyridyl have been synthesized. Their thermal properties and the ability to form complex oxides during thermal degradation have been studied. In the process of thermolysis of heterocomplexes, neodymium cobaltate NdCoO3 was obtained, which is confirmed by the results of X-ray powder diffraction.

The research has established that the X-ray powder diffraction patterns of the products obtained by thermolysis of heterocomplex [Сo2Nd2(C4Н4O4)5·2Phen]·4Н2О to 1000 °С exhibits peaks at (2θ): 23.40, 33.74, 41.42, 48.32, 54.52, 59.94, 70.58°. This corresponds to the neodymium cobaltate NdCoO3. Neodymium cobaltate crystallizes in the cubic crystal system. The sample was obtained without extraneous phases inclusions. For the samples obtained by the termolysis of he­te­rocomplexes [Сo2Nd2(C2O4)5·2Phen]·4Н2О and NdCo(AA)5·2α,α'-dipy, in addition to the complex oxide NdCoO3, peaks of Nd2O3 were recorded, which crystallizes in the hexa­gonal crystal system. The X-ray powder diffraction patterns show peaks with 2θ values: 26.92, 29.75, 30.77, 40.54, 47.53, 53.63, 57.08°. The phase ratio of NdCoO3/Nd2O3 after termolysis for the sample of CoNd(AA)5·2α,α'-dipy is ~ 68.9/31.1%; for the sample of [Сo2Nd2(C2O4)5·2Phen]·4Н2О is ~ 50/50%; for the sample of [Сo2Nd2(C4Н4O4)5·2Phen]·4Н2О is NdCoO3 ~ 100%. The average crystallites size of complex oxides was calculated using the Scherer formula. It has been showed that neodymium cobaltate has an average particle size of ~33 nm, regardless of the complex precursor from which it was formed during thermolysis.

The catalytic effect of neodymium cobaltates in the hydrogen peroxide decomposition reaction was studied. It was shown that all samples of complex oxides showed a quite high cataly­tic activity in the all of experiments in the hydro­gen peroxide decomposition reactions.
No Trace Anywhere of Life, Perhaps: Autology and Hauntology in Imagination Dead Imagine
Authors: Vozel François-Nicolas
Published: October 2022

This essay interprets Imagination Dead Imagine as the product of Beckett’s own autology, in Arnold Geulincx’s sense of the term. The Cartesian occasionalist advanced that self-inspection culminates with the revelation of human beings’ fundamental ignorance and impotence. I suggest that the short text borrows Geulingian themes and imagery to offer a dazzling vision – from the point of view of eternity – of the radical atomization and opacity of the human condition. Furthermore, I explore how Beckett generates a specifically Geulingian commentary on a debate that obsessed him throughout his life: the problem of the subject-object relation and the self-to-self relation in artistic representation. Finally, I propose to read the paradoxical imperative ‘imagination dead imagine’ as a Geulingian axiom in its own right, that is, as an inescapable obligation whose fulfilment is quasi-impossible.

Pandemi Covid-19 memberikan hikmah keseriusan, tantangan yang luar biasa pada semua sektor kehidupan, agar semua berjalan seperti biasa. Penyediaan  kebutuhan pangan menjadi penting, seiring dengan protokol kesehatan yang ketat untuk selalu hidup bersih dan menjaga jarak. Hal ini belum pernah dipikirkan sebelumnya,  terutama dalam jangkauan industri kecil tentang pemesanan olahan pangan sistem on line jarak jauh, take way untuk rumah makan-kafe. Industri Rumah Tangga (IRT), UKM, mempresepsikan masa pandemi ini sebagai tantangan untuk memperbaiki kualitas produksinya agar lebih diterima masyarakat yang saat ini lebih selektif memilih makanan sehat, tanpa resiko penularan penyakit yang disebabkan oleh bakteri, jamur, virus. IRT berlabel sate manis balut kacang SIDOSEMI menerapkan produk pangan sehat , aman tanpa pengawet dan bahan tambahan pangan lainnya Produk sate manis dalam kemasan telah diproduksi rata-rata 400 tusuk/hari, dengan kualitas empuk, rasa eksotik rempah nusantara  yang melegenda. Upaya yang telah dilakukan IRT SIDOSEMI dengan mengikuti berbagai pelatihan olahan pangan , masih belum mampu  diimplementasikan untuk menjadi produk yang unggul. Permasalahan yang dihadapi  oleh IRT adalah produk sate manis tidak dapat bertahan lebih dari 24 jam pendistribusian. Kemasan sate yang digunakan adalah plastik yang telah divakum, saat pengiriman diberi es dimasukkan ke styroform. Hasil penelitian di laboratorium Teknik Kimia Politeknik Negeri Malang (POLINEMA) , ditemukan timbulnya jamur, setelah sate manis  dibiarkan pada suhu kamar, selama waktu 2 x 24 jam.  Hal ini menyebabkan jangkauan distribusinya terbatas hanya di sekitar Malang Raya. Proses produksi, terdiri penggilingan bahan baku daging, bumbu rempah, kacang; pencetakan; pembakaran; pengemasan. Ada 5 (lima) permasalahan dalam pengelolaan IRT SIDOSEMI yaitu i) proses produksi masih manual, kemasan plastik tidak kedap udara-cahaya, ii) manajemen pemasaran on line masih standart, iii) aspek kewirausahaan, belum adanya inovasi produk yang daya bersaing ,iv)administrasi keuangan masih sederhana,v) manajemen mutu dan kesehatan masih rendah, belum memperhatikan aspek standart mutu dan higienitas produk. Aspek permasalahan produksi, kemasan, mutu dan kesehatan menjadi titik kritis karena berhubungan potensi besar kontaminasi, karena dilakukan secara manual dengan waktu lama tanpa kendali standart mutu.  Sedang permasalahan lainnya sebagai pendukung perlu dioptimalisasi.  Solusi yang ditawarkan melalui Program Kemitraan Masyarakat (PKM), diharapkan dapat  membantu menyelesaikan masalah pendeknya waktu distribusi ke konsumen dengan memutus kontaminasi akibat mata rantai jamur,bakteri patogen sehingga produk olahan ini menjadi lebih awet.

The potential of conservation agriculture to improve nitrogen fixation in cowpea under the semi-arid conditions of Kenya
Authors: Binacchi Ferdinando , Rusinamhodzi Leonard , Cadisch Georg
Published: October 2022

Low-cost but productive crop intensification options are needed to assist smallholder farmers in the tropics to move away from poverty. This study assessed the capacity of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.) to perform biological N fixation (BNF) under no-tillage practices, crop residue cover and intercropping with maize (Zea mays L.). The study was performed during the long rains of 2017 at Kiboko experimental station, located in semi-arid eastern Kenya. The research field trials had been running for three years (6 cropping seasons) by the time the sampling took place. The experimental set up was a split-plot design: main plots being tillage system (no till + maize stover retention (CA), and conventional tillage to 15 cm depth without mulch retention (CT)), sub-plot being cropping system (maize-cowpea intercrop, maize monocrop, and cowpea monocrop). Cowpea plants were sampled at 50% flowering stage and at physiological maturity to investigate biomass production and %N derived from the atmosphere (%Ndfa) through the 15N natural abundance technique, using maize as a reference control. Results showed that the number of nodules per plant was higher in CA treatments rather than in CT although not significant (p>0.05). Mean cowpea grain yield at harvest varied between 472 – 590 kg ha‐1 in intercrops whereas grain yield in monocrops was between 1465 - 1618 kg ha-1. Significant differences were however recorded between treatments with CT monocropped cowpea at flowering recording the highest mean %Ndfa (62%) and CT intercrop the lowest (52%). At harvest stage CA inter recorded the highest %Ndfa (54%) while CT intercrop the lowest (41%). The %Ndfa was higher (p<0.05) at flowering (between 57- 69%) compared with 45 - 64 % at harvest stage. Overall cowpeas in intercrops derived between 17.8 - 22.8 kg ha-1 of their total N from atmospheric dinitrogen fixation while monocrops between 54.9 - 55.2 kg ha-1. The effect of CA on BNF was positive but not significantly different from CT. These results suggest that CA has the potential to enhance the BNF process but there is a need to explore in future alternative spatial arrangement and variety choice in intercropping of cowpea and maize to optimize the BNF process.
Rapid and sensitive detection of tenuazonic acid in agricultural by-products based on gold nano-flower lateral flow
Authors: Cai Peiyuan , Wang Rongzhi , Ling Sumei , Wang Shihua
Published: October 2022

Tenuazonic acid (TA) is a highly toxic mycotoxin mainly generated by the fungi of Alternaria genus and widely contaminates agricultural by-products. Given the threat of TA to food-security, it is very important to develop rapid and sensitive detection methods for TA monitoring. In this study, gold nano-particles (AuNP) with average diameter near 17.25 nm were prepared, and the developed AuNP-based strip has an assay time of 15 min with visual limit of detection (LOD) of 12.5 ng/ml and threshold of 100 ng/ml. To further improve sensitivity, multi-branched gold nano-flowers (AuNF) with average diameter near 50 nm were prepared and characterized by UV-VIS and TEM, and the established AuNF-based strip has visual LOD of 0.78 ng/ml and threshold of 50 ng/ml within 15 min. Both assays were applied to determine TA in apple juice and tomato ketchup, and the results were consistent with that of UHPLC-MS/MS. Thus, these assays could be applied for rapid determination of trace TA in real samples.

Published: October 2022

Light sheet fluorescence microscopy (LSFM) has become a method of choice for live imaging because of its fast acquisition and reduced photobleaching and phototoxicity. Despite the strengths and growing availability of LSFM systems, no generalized LSFM mounting protocol has been adapted for live imaging of post-embryonic stages of C. elegans. A major challenge has been to develop methods to limit animal movement using a mounting media that matches the refractive index of the optical system. Here, we describe a simple mounting and immobilization protocol using a refractive-index matched UV-curable hydrogel within fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP) tubes for efficient and reliable imaging of larval and adult C. elegans stages.

Dilated cardiomyopathy is characterized by a compromised left ventricular function and contributes significantly to the heart failure epidemic, which represents a staggering clinical and public health problem worldwide. Gene mutations have been identified in 35% of patients with dilated cardiomyopathy. Pathogenic variants in LMNA, encoding nuclear A-type lamins, are one of the major causative causes of dilated cardiomyopathy (i.e. CardioLaminopathy). A-type lamins are type V intermediate filament proteins, which are the main components of the nuclear lamina. The nuclear lamina is connected to the cytoskeleton on one side, and to the chromatin on the other side. Among the models proposed to explain how CardioLaminopathy arises, the “chromatin model” posits an effect of mutated A-type lamins on the 3D genome organization and thus on the transcription activity of tissue-specific genes. Chromatin contacts with the nuclear lamina via specific genomic regions called lamina-associated domains lamina-associated domains. These LADs play a role in the chromatin organization and gene expression regulation. This review focuses on the identification of LADs and chromatin remodeling in cardiac muscle cells expressing mutated A-type lamins and discusses the methods and relevance of these findings in disease.

Globally, rangelands are undergoing rapid social-ecological changes, yet the scale of these changes is rarely measured. Fencing, sedentarization, and land conversion limit access by wildlife and livestock to vital resources such as water and seasonal forage, leading to rangeland degradation. In addition, these changes limit connectivity between wildlife sub-populations, triggering a spiral of decreasing biodiversity and weakening ecosystem function. Moreover, the combination of land privatization, sedentarization and fencing endangers pastoral livelihoods by reducing resilience to drought and diminishing livestock holdings per person. We provide a unique, urgent, and vital snapshot across >30,000 km2 of southern Kenya’s rangeland, covering four ecosystems renowned for their rich megafauna and pastoral people. We document and explore the drivers of extensive fencing (~40,000 km), the proliferation of livestock enclosures (>27,000), and the conversion of rangelands for cultivation (~1,500 km2). Our analyses were based on an open-access database recently synthesized for the region. Fencing is generally more prolific in areas that have been converted from community tenure to private title, especially where land values are raised by agricultural potential and proximity to Kenya’s capital, Nairobi. These factors drive the transfer of land ownership from traditional pastoralists to speculators, eventually resulting in the transformation of rangeland into agricultural, industrial and urban land uses. Space for wildlife (and traditional pastoralism) is limited on private, subdivided land, where livestock enclosures are at their highest density, and where there is less unfenced land and less untransformed land, compared to conservation areas and pastoral commons. Conflicting planning incentives, policies, and economic forces are driving unsustainable and potentially irreversible social-ecological transitions over unprecedented spatial scales. The lesson from southern Kenya is that a range of financial, policy and governance-related interventions are required to allow people and nature to coexist sustainably in African savannas.

Air temperature and humidity have a great impact on public health, leads to heat stress. The US National Weather Service uses temperature and relative humidity to build a heat index (HI) as a metric to identify the thresholds for heat stress as felt by the public. Under climate change conditions and especially in hot humid weather during summer, the number of hot days in Hanoi has increased in recent times. Subsequently, the heat index is rising in both number of occurrences and level of intensity leading to increasing temperature stress on people’s health. The daily heat index for the future was simulated using maximum daily temperature and minimum daily relative humidity based on climate change scenarios. Maximum daily temperature was provided by the climate change model, while minimum daily relative humidity was estimated from the following: maximum daily temperature, mean daily temperature and daily rainfall. Results show that in the future, the heat index will increase by 0.0777°C/year in the RCP 4.5 scenario and 0.08°C/year in the RCP 8.5 scenario. Number of weeks with heat at danger tends to increase to 5.5 weeks/5 year for scenario RCP 4.5, and it is 6 weeks/5 years under RCP 8.5 scenario. In particular, the number of days of heatstroke over a 30-year period (from 1991 to 2020) amounted to only 4, that is an average of 0.13 days of the year, which represents a very rare weather phenomenon in the past. In contrast, under an RCP 4.5 scenario in the future over a 30-year period, the average number of days per year will be 2, 57 days; while the average number of days per year under an RCP 8.5 scenario would be 3, 87 days. This phenomenon will be mainly concentrated in the months of June, July, and August. Projections of this type are a key tool for communities working out how they will adapt to heat stress in the context of climate change.

Objective

To evaluate the association of plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC) with incident cardiovascular disease (CVD) and all-cause mortality in hypertensive patients with suspected obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and calculate the optimal cut-off value of PAC for this specific population.

Patients and methods

Participants with PAC at baseline in UROSAH in 2011-2013 were enrolled and followed up till 2021. Composite outcome included CVD and all-cause mortality. Cox proportional hazards model was used to evaluate the relationship between PAC and the composite outcome. Time-dependent ROC curve was used to determine the optimal cut-off value of PAC. Besides, we conducted subgroup analyses and sensitivity analyses.

Results

3173 hypertensive participants aged 18-84 years comprised analytical sample. During a median follow-up of 7.3 years and 22640 person-years, 69 deaths and 343 cases of incident CVD occurred. The incidence of composite outcome was increased with elevation in tertile of PAC. Compared with the first tertile, the risk of CVD and all-cause death was higher in third tertile (HR=1.81, 95%CI: 1.39-2.35, P<0.001). Time-dependent ROC curve showed optimal threshold for PAC was 12.5ng/dl. Whether renin was suppressed or not (≤0.5 or >0.5ng/ml per h), elevated PAC was associated with an increased risk of CVD. Our results remained stable and consistent in sensitivity analyses.

Conclusion

Higher PAC was associated with increased risk of CVD and all-cause mortality in hypertensives with suspected OSA, even in the absence of primary aldosteronism (PA). Hypertensives with PAC≥12.5ng/dl showed a significantly increased risk of CVD, indicating that special attention and treatment were required in this specific population.
An improved switched diode multilevel inverter topology with fewer on state switches
Authors: Kubendran V. , Shuaib Y. Mohamed
Published: October 2022

A double capacitor double diode double switch (DCDDDS) multilevel inverter is proposed in this paper to generate positive voltage and connect a polarity changing circuit of H-bridge inverter that generates negative voltage. The desired level is achieved by connecting the jth number of basic units in series. To generate more stepped levels with fewer switches, various algorithms, such as Natural, Binary, Trinary, and Quasi-Linear sequences, and two new proposed algorithms are discussed to determine the magnitude of DC voltage sources. The proposed multilevel inverter eliminates the need to turn on more power switches for different levels, which is the highlight of this topology. The proposed multilevel inverter is compared in terms of the switch count, number of ON state switches per level, driver circuits, and total standing voltage with the conventional switched diode multilevel inverters. Real-time results from the test bench of OPAL-RT and simulation have been used to validate the proposed inverter.

Silicon (Si) is considered a beneficial element in plant nutrition, but its importance on ecosystems goes far beyond that. Various forms of silicon are found in soils, of which the phytogenic pool plays a decisive role due to its good availability. This Si returns to the soil through the decomposition of plant residues, where they then participate in the further cycle as biogenic amorphous silica (bASi) or so-called phytoliths. These have a high affinity for water, so that the water holding capacity and water availability of soils can be increased even by small amounts of ASi. Agricultural land is a considerable global dust source, and dust samples from arable land have shown in cloud formation experiments a several times higher ice nucleation activity than pure mineral dust. Here, particle sizes in the particulate matter fractions (PM) are important, which can travel long distances and reach high altitudes in the atmosphere. Based on this, the research question was whether phytoliths could be detected in PM samples from wind erosion events, what are the main particle sizes of phytoliths and whether an initial quantification was possible.

Measurements of PM concentrations were carried out at a wind erosion measuring field in the province La Pampa, Argentina. PM were sampled during five erosion events with Environmental Dust Monitors (EDM). After counting and classifying all particles with diameters between 0.3 and 32 µm in the EDMs, they are collected on filters. The filters were analyzed by Scanning Electron Microscopy and Energy Dispersive X-Ray analysis (SEM-EDX) to investigate single or ensembles of particles regarding composition and possible origins.

The analyses showed up to 8.3 per cent being phytoliths in the emitted dust and up to 25 per cent of organic origin. Particles of organic origin are mostly in the coarse dust fraction, whereas phytoliths are predominately transported in the finer dust fractions. Since phytoliths are both an important source of Si as a plant nutrient and are also involved in soil C fixation, their losses from arable land via dust emissions should be considered and its specific influence on atmospheric processes should be studied in detail in the future.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the entrepreneurial environment of selected countries, and analyze and rank them on the basis of entrepreneurship related indicators. This study’s design comprises a review of the literature, extraction of secondary data on the phenomenon, and analysis. The research gap has been established through a review of the literature, leading toward the development of problem statement. The cross-sectional data, related to entrepreneurship indicators, is extracted from website of World Development Indicators (2021) for 48 selected countries. Using positivism as a research philosophy and deduction as a research approach, the data are analyzed through grey relational analysis (GRA). On the basis of grey relational grades, this study also classified the countries on the continuum of “much better” to “worse.” The results of the study show that the United States, United Kingdom, Japan, Australia, Hong Kong SAR, China, France and Canada attained the highest grey relational grades and are considered the countries having much better entrepreneurial environment; whereas Poland, Kuwait, Namibia and so on attained the lowest grey relational grades and are considered the countries having worst entrepreneurial environment. This research has several practical implications for different economies/countries, entrepreneurial ventures, aspiring entrepreneurial, and researchers. On the basis of findings of this study, policy makers should refine country-level entrepreneurial policies while keeping in view the respective grey relational grades.
