This paper proposed a framework for assessing the COVID-19 response in Egypt. COVID-19 plays a vital role in public health, and selecting the best response can decrease the impact of the disease. This study used the type 2 neutrosophic set as a framework for dealing with uncertainty. The assessment of the COVID-19 response has various conflicting criteria, so the concept of multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) is used to deal with COVID-19 criteria. The MCDM methods are adopted with the type-2neutrosophic set—the typ-2 neutrosophic AHP-COPRAS-VIKOR methodology framework. The AHP is used to compute the criteria weights. The COPRAS and VIKOR methods are used to rank the alternatives. The case study in Egypt is conducted to show the best response to COVID-19. Five main criteria and nineteen sub-criteria are used in this paper. The methodologies employed in this paper aid as examples for future research endeavors, inspiring a continued dialogue on refining and advancing MCDM methodologies in public health disasters.

Authors: Peng Xueyu , Ning Yuanyuan
Published: March 2024

Objective: This study aims to analyze and summarize the evidence concerning the relationship between diabetes and postoperative infections in colon cancer through a literature review. Methods: A comprehensive search was conducted on Chinese databases, including CNKI, VIP, Wanfang, and the biomedical literature database, as well as the English database PubMed. The search covered the period from February 1, 2003, to February 28, 2023. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale was employed to score the included literature, and funnel plots along with Eggers regression test were used to analyze publication bias. Stata 12.0 was utilized for the analysis of the collected raw data. Results: Following inclusion and exclusion criteria, this study incorporated seven retrospective studies, with a total of 4607 cases in the infection group and 9102 cases in the non-infection group. The quality scores of the seven studies ranged between 7 and 8 points. Funnel plot and Eggers regression test analyses revealed no significant publication bias in the included literature. A correlation was identified between diabetes and postoperative infections in colon cancer, implicating diabetes as a risk factor for such infections. Subgroup analysis indicated that nationality, surgical methods, and infection types had no significant impact on the meta-analysis results. Conclusion: The analysis revealed a significant correlation between diabetes and postoperative infections in colon cancer. Diabetes emerged as a risk factor for postoperative infections, with odds ratios (OR) of 3.82 (P0.1) and 95% CI of 2.91-5.01. Controlling blood glucose levels was associated with a reduced risk of postoperative infections in colon cancer.
Discovery and validation of putative anticancer genes in lung adenocarcinoma
Authors: Zhang Daniel
Published: March 2024

Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is a significant subtype of lung cancer, and understanding the roles of tumor suppressor genes in LUAD remains crucial. In this study, we aimed to identify and experimentally validate potential tumor suppressor genes selected from online databases. By analyzing the TCGA cancer database, we identified genes exhibiting significant differential expression between normal and tumor tissues in LUAD, particularly focusing on genes with lower expression levels in tumors associated with shortened survival periods. Subsequently, we selected UNC5B, DAB2IP, SEMA3F, PPM1L, and AXIN2 as candidate genes and performed knockdown experiments using LUAD cell line HCC827. Our findings revealed that all selected genes, except UNC5B, conferred tumor-like properties when knocked out, suggesting their potential as anti-tumor agents. These results contribute to the understanding of LUAD pathogenesis and highlight the significance of studying tumor suppressor genes in the context of cancer development and patient survival.

Authors: Wang Dan , Zhao Qinyu , Xuan Guoyi , Zhang Haiyan
Published: March 2024

This paper introduces the background of the novel coronavirus outbreak and the role of CT scanning in diagnosis, as well as the importance of automated CT image analysis system. COVID-19, a highly contagious respiratory disease caused by the novel coronavirus, has caused millions of infections and hundreds of thousands of deaths worldwide since it broke out in Wuhan, China, in early 2020. CT scan is a commonly used diagnostic means to help doctors determine the extent and location of lung lesions, but due to the large number of COVID-19 patients, doctors have a large workload, so automated CT image analysis system is needed to assist doctors in rapid diagnosis. With the continuous training process, the accuracy of the training set of automated CT image analysis system is gradually stabilized at 90%. The accuracy of the test set exceeds 85%, and the prediction effect is good. The loss of training set and test set became smaller and the training accuracy gradually improved. According to the confusion matrix, 6 CT images that should have been COVID-19 were predicted to be non-COVID-19, 57 CT images that should have been non-COVID-19 were predicted to be COVID-19, and the remaining images were predicted correctly, and the prediction effect of the model was good, which could predict the COVID-19 images more accurately. The application of automated CT image analysis system can greatly reduce the work burden of doctors, improve the efficiency and accuracy of diagnosis, and provide strong technical support for the prevention, control and treatment of COVID-19. At the same time, the continuous optimization and improvement of the system will also provide more effective technical means for future epidemic prevention and control and medical diagnosis. However, there are still some problems and challenges in the application of automated CT image analysis system. For example, there may be bias in the models training data, resulting in inaccurate model predictions. At the same time, the case data in different regions are quite different, so targeted training and optimization are needed. Therefore, it is necessary to continuously improve and optimize the system to improve its prediction effect and reliability. In conclusion, the application of automated CT image analysis system provides strong technical support for the prevention, control and treatment of the novel coronavirus pneumonia, which can quickly and accurately diagnose lung lesions and provide better treatment and care for patients. With the continuous development and improvement of the technology, the application prospect of the system will be broader and make greater contributions to the cause of human health.

Authors: Cao Mengjie
Published: March 2024

Breast cancer (BC) is one of the most common cancers in women, and the number of patients is increasing year by year. TNBC (triple-negative breast cancer) and HER2+ BC, as the two most common subtypes, deserve more in-depth research. At present, there are many targeted therapies and immunotherapies for these two subtypes, using inhibitors or cancer vaccines to treat breast cancer more efficiently, and some research has achieved phased results. However, there are still many research gaps, such as the safety and immune mechanism of the vaccine are unclear, and only a few number of epitopes trigger an immune response. In this paper, three targeted therapies for TNBC (PARA inhibitors, CDK inhibitors and PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway inhibitors) were analyzed. Two types of immunotherapy (ICIs and CAR-T therapy), And four cancer vaccines for HER2+ BC (Peptide-based cancer vaccines, Protein-based cancer vaccines,DNA Based Anti-HER2 Vaccines and Dendritic Cell Vaccines), and summarized their respective advantages and disadvantages to provide more theories and case references for future studies. There are still many unanswered questions about drug resistance, and future research can focus on the immune microenvironment and drug resistance
Organ-on-chip technology's development and usages: A comprehensive review
Authors: Lyu Yinzhou
Published: March 2024

Organ-on-a-chip technology is a new development technology that has made great contributions to the field of biomedicine-medicine, which began to be studied in 1950 but has not achieved effective results. With the development of technology and the passage of time, the first successful organ-on-a-chip products were introduced in 1990. Organ-on-chip technology has broken through the limitations of human drug testing and pathological research, solved the problem of unsatisfactory efficacy after using animal simulation, and greatly promoted the development of pathology and pharmacology. Organ-on-a-chip refers to the cell culture of human organs on a chip to simulate the function and characteristics of human organs, providing a new way for disease treatment and drug research and development. The researchers began by trying to grow cells on artificial substrates to mimic the structure and function of human organs. Organ-on-a-chip technology can process cell cultures while improving the environment for human drug testing and pathology research, truly simulating and performing experiments on humans. Organ-on-a-chip is a cell culture analog that utilizes a microfluidic device in which microchannels are used to guide and manipulate the solution. In recent years, with the development of bio print technology, the research of organ chips has entered a new stage. Bioprinting allows cells and biomaterials to be arranged in predetermined patterns and structures to build tissues and organs with specific functions. At present, the research of organ chips can already help us complete the test drug and case analysis, the development time of this technology is very short, and there is still a lot of development and exploration space in the future.
Molecular mechanism and targeted therapy of breast cancer
Authors: Yao Xuzirui
Published: March 2024

A common malignant tumor that poses a major threat to womens health is breast cancer (BC). BC is mostly caused by aberrant cells in the breast and is primarily influenced by hormone levels, environmental factors, and genetics. Currently, the tumors features and stage determine the course of treatment for patients who have been diagnosed. Surgical resection, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, and targeted therapy are often used forms of treatment. Because of its few side effects and excellent treatment efficacy, targeted therapy has gained popularity in the fight against cancer. The goal of this article is to investigate potential future development trends in the field of BC by focusing on the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and therapy of the disease. This paper indicates that while new objectives for BC have made considerable strides in recent years, The biggest obstacles to a cure for BC are metastasis and recurrence, making the prognosis still quite difficult. To increase the survival rates of BC patients, more research and the creation of novel treatments are therefore essential.

Published: March 2024

Students under the direction of geospatial science faculty, 30 real-world distances were measured on the campus of Stephen F. Austin State University in the field with tape. Students were then instructed on how to measure all 30 real-world features remotely using drone imagery, point cloud data, pictometry data and the Google Earth Pro online interface. Real-world measurements were compared to remote sensing measurements taken by the students to calculate the root mean square error (RMSE). In addition, an ANOVA was conducted on the absolute errors to determine the statistical significance of the variation among the remotely sensed methods, while a Tukey test was performed to assess the statistical significance between the methods. Students discovered that the RMSE results indicate that the pictometry measurements were the most accurate, with an RMSE of 0.68 meters, and that the point cloud data were the least accurate, with an RMSE of 1.27 meters. The ANOVA results indicate that there was a significant difference in the mean absolute error among the methods, whereas the point cloud data, with a mean absolute error of 1.0423 meters, were significantly less accurate than those of the other methods, which was confirmed by the Tukey test.

Authors: Declercq Chloe , Khoza Lincoln , Bashir Salah
Published: March 2024

Lupus Nephritis is a common clinical manifestation affecting more than 50% of patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE), a chronic autoimmune disease that can affect virtually any organ. Whilst lupus nephritis is typically detected by an abnormal urinalysis with or without an elevated plasma creatinine, diagnosis is confirmed on renal biopsy. It is characterized by immunologic abnormalities including formation of immunocomplex deposits affecting the glomerular basement membrane, mesangium and/or subendothelial. It is by nature an immunocompromised state and along with its immunosuppressive treatment, lupus nephritis places a patient at high risk of opportunistic infections, including Tuberculosis (TB). A 21-year-old female presented with clinical features suggestive of lupus nephritis and a preserved renal function. The diagnosis was later confirmed on renal biopsy with an incidental finding of TB on renal histopathology. Interestingly, the patient had no constitutional symptoms or clinical history suggestive of TB. Antituberculosis treatment was initiated and mycophenolate, enalapril and prednisone was boarded after 2 weeks of TB treatment. The patient was later lost to follow up due to defaulting chronic treatment and follow up.

This study intends to examine the impact of entrepreneurial network relationships on the success of women-owned small enterprises (WOSEs) in Sri Lanka. Knowledge sharing, innovation, transaction cost, and market opportunities all play a significant role as the network relationship's independent variables, with reputation representing as a mediator for the impact of innovation on women-owned small enterprises' performance. The present study used partial least square (PLS) structural equation modelling to examine the constructed hypotheses technique to examine the impact of entrepreneurial network relationships on WOSEs performance. The data used in this study is primary data collected from 384 women entrepreneurs registered in the chamber of commerce in Sri Lanka using a simple random sampling technique. The findings show that there is a significant positive impact of transaction cost, reputation, market opportunity, and knowledge sharing, on the performance of WOSEs. Innovation as a mediator also positively and significantly mediate the impact of knowledge sharing on performance. It implies that innovations strengthen the impact that knowledge sharing does on business performance. The findings of this study highlight the policymakers to take steps to improve the collaboration between other businesses which will indirectly improve the entrepreneurial network and ultimately improve the performance of WOSEs. Consequently, network relationships afford enterprises the opportunity to leverage embedded linkages to mitigate their vulnerabilities and attain economic benefits. Future studies could focus on businesses other than women-owned enterprises to examine the impact of entrepreneurial network relationships on small enterprise performance in Sri Lanka. Hence future research should establish how the entrepreneurial networks can help businesses to enhance competitive advantage and thus the performance of women owned enterprises. Keywords: Reputation, Small Enterprises Performance and Women-owned Small Enterprises.

MARKETING STRATEGIES AND CUSTOMER’S PERCEPTION OF MODERN RETAIL UNITS IN KURNOOL DISTRICT OF ANDHRA PRADESH
Authors: Sudarshan Dr.Pullam
Published: March 2024

Retailing in simple term can be defined as “Retailing is the business activity of selling goods and services to the final consumer”. Retailing can be defined as the business products and services to consumers for their own use. It has its origin in the French word, retailer meaning ‘to cut a piece off’. The term retailing applies not only to the selling of tangible products like loaves of bread or pairs of shoes but also to the selling of service products. Retailing, one of the largest sectors in the global economy, has become the most active and attractive sector of the last decade. This unit also addresses the question of how the Marketing Mix framework can be used to analyze the competitive standing of a retail business organization and how the outcome of this analysis can then be translated into practical tactics that capitalize on the organization’s strengths. To build a competitive advantage that can be sustained, retailers need to pay special attention to aspects like price, location, merchandise, service, and communications. There are a number of retail marketing jobs out there, wherein one is not a sales executive, but one who creates and supervises sales strategies in the retail market. Customer perception is the opinions, feelings, and beliefs customers have about your brand. It plays an important role in building customer loyalty and retention as well as brand reputation and awareness. The word itself suggests the basic idea behind it. People are adapting to modern ways of living. For example, 24×7, if you see it is the modern form of retail as it is available to the customers whenever they are in need of it. The supermarkets try to cater to the various consumer needs at a reasonable price.

Chemical analysis of filters used in the study of air pollution is an important part of research in the field of monitoring the level of air pollution, mainly due to the influence of human activity (study of the composition of solid particles). When selecting an appropriate technique (including appropriate sample preparation), it is necessary, that the chosen method provides reliable and accurate results. In addition, to the accuracy and sensitivity of the technique, given the number of analyzed samples, it is already required that the analysis procedure be economical, ecological, and fast enough. The main aim of this work was to compare two techniques, EDXRF and ICP/OES, based on the measured results and to confirm the suitability of the EDXRF technique for the given assessment of the presence of chemical elements in solid particles. Furthermore, the discussion deals with a view of other requirements for analyses, mainly in the comparison of the two techniques used, namely economy, ecology and speed of analysis. The evaluation of the measured data confirmed that the EDXRF technique is sufficiently reliable compared to ICP/OES spectrometry for the investigation of filters with PM particle capture and with the required measurement sensitivity. In addition, EDXRF spectrometry is more economical, more ecological and faster compared to ICP/OES spectrometry.
Shell morphometric variation of the freshwater snail, Melanoides tuberculata (Müller, 1774) across the seven lakes of San Pablo City, Laguna, Philippines
Authors: Catalan Giancarl Wincer , de Chavez Emmanuel Ryan
Published: March 2024

The seven maar lakes of San Pablo City in Laguna Province constantly face natural and anthropogenic disturbances that affect the water quality and habitat condition of various aquatic species, including freshwater gastropods. Freshwater gastropods exposed to multiple biotic and abiotic stressors are known to alter their shells as a form of ecomorphological adaptation. However, there are no studies yet regarding shell variations across these lakes as subjected to perturbations in water quality. The shell morphometrics of the common native freshwater snail, Melanoides tuberculata, distributed across the seven lakes was examined to address this research gap. Various water parameters were measured prior to collection of snails along the littoral zones. One hundred ninety-seven M. tuberculata shells were subjected to linear and geometric morphometrics. The biggest shells were sampled in Lake Sampaloc while the smallest was in Lake Bunot. Centroid size also contributed significantly to the shell shape variation. Generalized linear mixed modeling results suggest water temperature had the most significant effect on shell shape change. Shells exposed to colder waters exhibited wider and shorter whorls with constricted apertures, whereas those collected in warmer waters have slender and slightly taller whorls with expanded apertures. The present study demonstrated the possible plasticity of M. tuberculata shells which could serve as important information in understanding the habitat conditions of the maar lakes of San Pablo City.

El estudio del código supone una presentación de sus contenidos, así como una exposición de argumentos empleados para sostener consejos y preceptos relativos a la regulación de la conducta y las emociones. Tras esto se propone una caracterización de las bases sociales del código a partir de las aportaciones teóricas da los denominados "anglofoucaltianos".
El uso religioso de la política y/o el uso político de la religión la ideología-sucedáneo "versus" la religión-sucedáneo
Authors: Linz Juan José
Published: March 2024

En este trabajo se analizan las relaciones de la religión y la política, especialmente en los regímenes totalitarios. Una de estas relaciones es el papsi desempeñado por la religión-sucedáneo en las religiones políticas, que enlazan con procesos de secularización. Como contrapunto al papel intervencionista del Estado en la religión política se ofrece el modelo liberal de separación amistosa entre Iglesia y Estado o el modelo hostil de esta separación, cuando se rechaza el pluralismo cultural. Otro tipo de relación es el de la ideología Religión, Política, Autoritarismo, Régimen Franquista.
El espacio y sus símbolos: Antropología de la casa andaluza
Authors: Sánchez Pérez Francisco
Published: March 2024

Partiendo de planteamientos teóricos propios de la semiótica, y teniendo como referencia empírica la arquitectura andaluza, se aborda aquí el espacio como un lenguaje susceptible de ser analizado e interpretado desde una perspectiva antropológico-cultural. Dicho lenguaje expresa material y simbólicamente esquemas cognitivos que hacen referencia al modo en como el ser humano concibe y representa su universo organizativo y mental dentro del contexto cultural andaluz. Para acceder al contenido del discurso arquitectónico se busca identificar los códigos que estructuran la gramática espacial, mediante el análisis de la morfología, la sintaxis. La retórica y la semántica, tanto desde una dimensión sincrónica como diacrónica.
Crear el nacimiento de la medicación de los conflictos en la reproducción
Authors: Juan Jerez Montserrat
Published: March 2024

Estudia la experiencia de la reconstrucción de la maternidad en el área de Barcelona y en la década de los noventa. Es un análisis teórico de los elementos que intervienen en la construcción social de la maternidad. La medicalización de la reproducción se estudia valorando el significado de la tecnología utilizada por los médicos/as a lo largo del proceso reproductivo y, sobre todo, en la maternidad conflictiva. Abortar, ser madre soltera o ser infértil son situaciones que muestran las contradicciones entre la construcción social de la maternidad y la vivencia real de esa maternidad. A través del conflicto se observan los criterios con que las mujeres se integran en los distintos ámbitos sociales. La tasa de natalidad ha ido decreciendo en estos últimos años al tiempo que las mujeres barcelonesas se han ido integrando en el mercado laboral y en el ámbito académico. Conviene analizar las transformaciones en las relaciones familiares, la vivencia de la sexualidad, el rol de las mujeres, el proceso de medicalización y los mecanismos de desigualdad.

Published: March 2024

Después de examinar el concepto de igualdad desde el punto de vista sociólogico, en la realidad social del capitalismo avanzado y en el superado socialismo real, se analiza críticamente el papel del estado como mecanismo igualitario o redistribuidor (de rentas, de privilegios, de recursos, de habilidades, etc.).
Actitudes hacia la democracia en España legitimidad, descontento y desafección
Authors: Montero Gibert José Ramón , Torcal Loriente, Mariano , Günther Richard
Published: March 2024

Este artículo examina las principales actitudes hacia la democracia en España durante las dos últimas décadas. Se han seleccionado numerosos indicadores empíricos para diferenciar tres facetas que suelen considerarse indistintamente, y por lo tanto confundirse de forma sistemática: la legitimidad democrática, el descontento político y la desafección política. En el artículo se analiza su evolución respectiva desde la transición democrática, y se mantiene que pertenecen a dimensiones conceptuales y empíricas diferentes. Para ello se incluyen, además, los resultados de dos tipos de pruebas: un análisis factorial confirma el distinto agrupamiento de los indicadores en el nivel individual, y un análisis de cohortes identifica pautas diferenciadas de continuidad y cambio en las distintas generaciones.

BACKGROUND

A previous study compared vortexing and Maki techniques for the diagnosis of catheter-related bloodstream infection (CRBSI), and concluded that vortexing was not superior to Maki method.

AIM

To determine whether the combined use of vortexing and Maki techniques provides profitability versus the Maki technique for the diagnosis of catheter tip colonization (CTC) and CRBSI.

METHODS

Observational and prospective study carried out in an Intensive Care Unit. Patients with suspected catheter-related infection (CRI) and with one central venous catheter for at least 7 days were included. The area under the curve (AUC) of the Maki technique, the vortexing technique and the combination of both techniques for the diagnosis of CTC and CRBSI were compared.

RESULTS

We included 136 episodes of suspected CRI. We found 21 cases of CTC of which 10 were also CRBSI cases. Of the 21 CTC episodes, 18 (85.7%) were diagnosed by Maki technique and vortexing technique, 3 (14.3%) only by the technique of Maki, and none only by technique of vortexing. Of the 10 CRBSI episodes, 9 (90.0%) were diagnosed by the techniques of Maki and vortexing, 1 (10.0%) was diagnosed only by the technique of Maki, and none only by the technique of vortexing. We no found differences in the comparison of AUC between the technique of Maki and the combination of Maki and vortexing techniques for the diagnosis of CTC (P = 0.99) and CRBSI (P = 0.99).

CONCLUSION

The novel finding of our study was that the combined use of vortexing and Maki techniques did not provide profitability to the technique of Maki alone to CRBSI diagnosis of.

Published: March 2024

Ischemic stroke, caused by a blockage in the brain’s blood vessels, is a critical emergency that requires immediate treatment. This study examined the efficacy of citicoline as an adjunct therapy to improve outcomes in acute ischemic stroke. A comprehensive search of four databases (Cochrane Library, ScienceDirect, PubMed, and Google Scholar) was conducted, identifying a total of 5265 articles. Three clinical trials were selected for critical appraisal. Agarwal demonstrated a larger reduction in stroke infarct volume in the citicoline group (4.22 cm3) compared to the placebo group (2.63 cm3) (p=0.483). On day 90, the citicoline group exhibited superior results in mRS scores of 0-2 (p=0.732), NIHSS scores of 0-2 (p=0.934), Barthel index ≥95 (p=0.564), and patient mortality (p=0.468). Seifaddini’s study revealed improved peak systolic velocity and mean arterial flow velocity in the cerebrovascular system. Enrico’s study showed improved mean short afferent latency inhibition in the cholinergic circuits of the citicoline group (p=0.004). Citicoline proves effective as an adjuvant neuroprotective and neuroregenerative therapy for acute ischemic stroke.

Published: March 2024

Introducción: Dentro del ámbito educativo, en el nivel preparatoria, el yoga juega un rol importante en el desarrollo de habilidades motrices, respiratorias y emocionales contribuyendo en el desenvolvimiento correcto del párvulo.

Desarrollo: Se investigó acerca de los beneficios que otorgan las sesiones de yoga en el fortalecimiento de las áreas motoras, recalcando su utilidad a nivel cognitivo, motor, emocional y social, a su vez se analizó como una adecuada respiración ayuda al cuerpo y a la mente en la generación de energía.

Aplicaciones prácticas o futuras líneas de investigación: La falta de capacitación sobre temas de gran trascendencia en las instituciones de los sectores rurales contribuye al déficit intelectual y físico de los infantes, es por ello que se propone una guía de ejercicios sobre el yoga infantil para de esta manera contrarrestar y prevenir falencias que los niños puedan presentar en un futuro.

Conclusiones: Los docentes de las instituciones seleccionadas de la parroquia Pílalo, no implementan el yoga en el aula de clase, lo que conlleva a dificultades en la canalización de emociones, observando niños con estados de ansiedad y propensos a sufrir retrasos en la asimilación de conocimientos.
