Ultrasound assessment of ovarian lesions: O-RADS approach
Authors: Yadav Upasana , Sarawagi Radha , Patel Ankur , Rahul Sibi , Malik Rajesh
Published: March 2024

Lesions of ovarian or adnexal origin are common in all age groups, but there is significant variability in the interpretation of the words, definitions, and morphologic descriptions by the radiologists and the clinicians. There has also been a paradigm shift in the diagnosis and management of ovarian lesions during the last 20 years.

Ovarian-Adnexal Reporting and Data System (O-RADS) by the American College of Radiology (ACR) was introduced in 2018. ORADS US (ultrasonography) serves as a tool to simplify the characterization of adnexal lesions, minimize the use of misleading terminology, and aid in the management of such lesions. It maintains the six risk assessment categories (O-RADS US 0–5) with an increasing predicted risk of malignancy from O-RADS US 1 to 5.

In this pictorial essay, we briefly summarize the O-RADS and its descriptors, followed by representative ultrasound images to help clinicians understand what the O-RADS descriptors in the ultrasound report would mean.
Harnessing generative AI: Transformative applications in medical imaging and beyond
Authors: Goyal Swati , Kaushal Lovely
Published: March 2024

Generative AI is an expanding domain that employs machine learning models to generate novel data that closely mimic pre existing data. ChatGPT and DALL-E can be customized for specific applications and are expected to transform healthcare, education, and communication. Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) that can generate synthetic medical images closely mimicking actual patient data may substantially enhance machine learning model training datasets. They also translate medical images from one modality to another, improve medical imaging resolution, reduce radiation exposure, and boost image quality and detail.

Despite their challenges, GANs have great potential in the field of medical imaging. The key obstacles are the need for Graphic Processing Units (GPUs) and computing resources to train GANs and the lack of established standards for generating synthetic images. Incorrectly labeled data for training other machine learning models can reduce performance, making ground-truth data labeling for healthcare AI more difficult.

Generative AI is revolutionizing healthcare imaging, simplifying diagnosis, and propelling healthcare research and practice to new frontiers. Ensuring the reliability and safety of generated images in medical applications requires addressing ethical considerations and validating data.
Uncommon synovial pathologies
Authors: Kumar Atul , Patel Ankur , Sarawagi Radha , Malik Rajesh , Ur Rahman Nadeem , Balaji N
Published: March 2024

The synovium is a specialized tissue lining the synovial joints, bursae, and tendon sheaths of the body. It is affected by various localized and systemic disorders. Synovial diseases can be broadly classified as inflammatory, infectious, degenerative, proliferative, hemorrhagic, and neoplastic. Injuries to other structures within the joint, such as cartilage, may also be caused by pathological processes that affect the synovium. Early detection of synovial diseases is critical to avoid irreversible joint damage. Understanding the typical imaging features of synovial diseases can help in accurate diagnosis and prompt treatment. Therefore, imaging plays a crucial role in detecting synovial diseases at an early stage. This pictorial review highlights the unusual synovial pathologies, such as synovial chondromatosis, pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS), giant cell tumor of tendon sheath (GCTT), hemophilic arthropathy, lipoma arborescens, and synovial sarcoma.

We present the case of a 24-year-old 46XX, raised as male, with ambiguous genitalia and cyclical hematuria with normal female internal genitalia and secondary sexual characteristics. This case underscores the influence of social stigma and the psychosocial vulnerability associated with DSD on individuals’ lives in developing countries.
A curious case of giant omental lipoma
Authors: Shukla Prachi , Hasan Farhana
Published: March 2024

Primary tumors of the omentum are one of the rare causes of large intra-abdominal masses and contribute to a limited number of reported cases in the medical literature. Here, we report a case of a male child with complaints of dull abdominal pain, suspected to be a giant omental lipoma radiologically, which was confirmed on histopathology after a complete surgical resection. The case highlights the importance of various radiological modalities for the diagnosis of omental lipomas and their importance in pre-operative workup to rule out malignant pathologies, and for better anatomical characterization of the lesion for assistance in surgical planning.
Risk-taking behavior by a cavity-nesting parrot breeding at northern Patagonia, Argentina
Authors: Amione Ludmila L. D. , Pereyra Patricio J. , Seco Pon Juan P.
Published: March 2024

The increase in human population poses great challenges to birds inhabiting coastal areas, and studying their behavioral responses against these disturbances is an effective approach to understanding how tolerant species are. Our main goal was to describe the risk-taking behavior of breeding burrowing parrots (Cyanoliseus patagonus) against an approaching person. For this, we measured flight initiation distance (FID) and latency time of nesting burrowing parrots on a reproductive colony situated northwest of the San Matias Gulf, northern Argentine Patagonia. We also inquired how anthropic, environmental and ethological variables affected this behavior, and checked if the species´ reproductive success of the species varied against such disturbance. The mean FID estimated and the mean latency time were only affected by cloud coverage, and both increased with overcast conditions. burrowing parrots did not modify their FID throughout the breeding season, but returned to previous activities sooner as the breeding season progressed. The effect of our experimental disturbance did not affect the reproductive success of the species. Our results suggest that burrowing parrots show a tameness to the disturbance caused by a human approach, as reflected by their relatively short flight initiation distances, an effect also reported in other bird species inhabiting urban habitats.

Traditional free-range, slow-growing bird rearing is critical to household food security and poverty alleviation in developing countries. This study evaluated the proximate and collagen contents of the breast and thigh muscles of Red Jungle fowl (RJ), Village Chicken (VC) (slow-growing birds), and Commercial Broilers (CB) (fast-growing birds). Fifty each of the RJ, VC, and CB day-old chicks were raised under similar management. They were randomized into three groups according to breed (JV, VC, and CB), in five replicates, using cages (1.2m×1.2m×0.6m) from day old till the end of the experiment. They were fed a commercial diet and were allowed to drink water ad libitum for 120 days. Ten chickens per breed or group were serially euthanized, and their pectoralis major (breast muscle) and biceps femoris (thigh muscle) were evaluated for moisture, ash, crude protein, and collagen. The moisture in the RJ breast was lower (p≤0.05) than in the VC and CB, while it decreased (p≤0.05) with age. The crude protein in RJ and VC was higher (p≤0.05) than in CB and at an earlier age (p≤0.05) than at older ages. Collagen increased with age for all breeds evaluated; it was highest (p≤0.05) in RJ, least in CB, and higher in the thigh than in the breast. The nutrient composition differs between these birds, although they were raised under similar management. It was concluded that the age and breed of the bird influence the nutrient content of the RJ, VC, and CB muscles.

Objective: To validate the Geramover Screening (GS) against the Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment (CGA) as non-inferiority screening tool for identifying geriatric patients in the emergency department. Method: Using a retrospective database and medical record analysis of GS and CGA results, 189 geriatric patients matched for functional impairment, Barthel index, and derived recommendations on the screening tool. Results: Of the admitted patients 87% were defined as geriatric patients by the GS. The GS showed the following sensitivity/specificity/PPV/NPV compared to the CGA for acute functional disorders: disorders in cognition (0.765/0.772/0.871/0.62; p=0.000), locomotion (0. 938/0.808/0.965/0.700; p=0.000), autonomy (0.927/0.909/0.986/0.645; p=0.000), nutrition (0.379/0.958/0.959/0.374; p=0.000), and overall condition (0.877/1.000/1.000/0.457; p=0.000). The GS, like the CGA, shows a significant negative correlation (-0.316 versus -0.473; p=0.000, 2-sided) between the number of dysfunctions to the level of the Barthel index. Conclusion: The GS, as a valid emergency screening tool for geriatric patients, is not inferior to the CGA in correct, early detection of functional disorders and mapping of the correlated autonomy scale Barthel Index.

Objectives: Describe the characteristics of Guillain Barré Syndrome in patients older than 60 years (Latin American population). Methods: Retrospective analysis of 141 patients with diagnosis of Guillain Barré Syndrome. 43 in the elderly group (>60 years) and 98 patients in the young group (18–59 years). Clinical characteristics, electrodiagnosis, cerebrospinal fluid, treatment and prognosis (12 months of follow-up) were compared between groups. Results: A longer delay from the prodrome to the disease (median in days 14 vs 7; p=0.04). greater involvement in deep sensitivity (72.5% vs 29.6%; p=0.001) and ataxia (30.2% vs 13.2%; p=0.01) in the elderly. In the follow-up, the prognosis was similar using the Hughes scale (12 months: ederly group 0.22 vs young group 0.29; p=0.6). Conclusions: A longer delay from the prodromal event to the onset of Guillain Barré Syndrome in the elderly could be interpreted as a more insidious presentation in the context of immunosenescence. A greater compromise of deep sensitivity and ataxia must be taken into consideration for an adequate approach to rehabilitation. With our results we cannot conclude that age is an independent risk factor for worse prognosis.
A Story of Three Levels of Sophistication in SCF/KS-DFT Orbital Optimization Procedures
Authors: Sethio Daniel , Azzopardi Emily , Fernández Galván Ignacio , Lindh Roland
Published: March 2024

In this report, three versions of SCF/KS-DFT orbital optimization are described and benchmarked. The methods are a modified version of the geometry version of the direct inversion in the iterative subspace approach (which we call r-GDIIS), the modified restricted step rational function optimization method (RS-RFO), and the novel subspace gradient enhanced Kriging method, combined with restricted variance optimization (S-GEK/RVO). The modifications introduced are aimed to improve the robustness and computational scaling of the procedures. In particular, the subspace approach in S-GEK/RVO allows the application to SCF/KS-DFT optimization of a machine technique that has proved successful in geometry optimizations. The performance of the three methods is benchmarked for a large number of small to medium-sized organic molecules, at equilibrium structures and close to a transition state, and a second set of molecules containing closed- and open-shell transition metals. The results indicate the importance of the resetting technique in boosting the performance of the r-GDIIS procedure. Moreover, it is demonstrated that already at the inception of the subspace version of GEK to optimize SCF wave functions, it displays superior and robust convergence properties as compared to standard state-of-the-art SCF/KS-DFT optimization methods.

Published: March 2024

The management and analysis of large in silico molecular libraries is pivotal in many areas of modern chemistry. The adoption and success of data-oriented approaches to chemical research is dependent on the ease of handling large collections of in silico molecular structures in a programmatic way. Herein, we introduce the MOLecular LIibrary toolkit, “molli”, which is a Python 3 chemoinformatics module that provides a streamlined interface for manipulating large in silico libraries. Three-dimensional, combinatorial molecule libraries can be expanded directly from two-dimensional chemical structure fragments stored in CDXML files with high stereochemical fidelity. Geometry optimization, property calculation, and conformer generation are executed by interfacing with widely used computational chemistry programs such as OpenBabel, RDKit, ORCA, and xTB/CREST. Conformer-dependent grid-based feature calculators provide numerical representation suitable for diversity analysis, and interface to robust three-dimensional visualization tools provide comprehensive images to enhance human understanding of libraries with thousands of members. The package includes command-line interface in addition to Python classes to streamline frequently used workflows. This work describes the development and implementation of molli 1.0 and highlights the available functionality. Parallel performance is benchmarked on various hardware platforms and common workflows are demonstrated for different tasks ranging from optimized grid-based descriptor calculation on catalyst libraries to NMR prediction workflow from CDXML files.
N2 dissociation on AuCoFeMoRu high-entropy alloys: Circumventing scaling relations and step dependencies
Authors: Christensen Oliver , Hutu Ana-Iulia , Høgh Kristoffersen Henrik , Rossmeisl Jan
Published: March 2024

Finding a better catalyst for the reduction of nitrogen to ammonia would be of considerable use to the chemical industry, allowing for cheaper and possibly decentralized ammonia production. One approach to find a better catalyst is to explore the element component space continuously via the use of high-entropy alloys, uncovering as of yet untested multi-element catalysts and reaction sites to optimize reaction activity. Utilizing DFT calculations and microkinetic modeling, we use the AuCoFeMoRu high-entropy alloy as a discovery platform for \ch{N2} reduction catalysts. Testing both terrace and step sites, we find that high-entropy alloy terraces can reach as high activities as steps for the \ch{N2} reduction reaction, due to their heterogeneous surface structure. We also find that high-entropy alloys are able to circumvent the scaling relations to an extent, due to the decoupling of the transition state and final state structure of the reaction. We discover several promising high-entropy alloy reaction sites, with a roughly twofold improvement in activity over the best monometallic surface. However, significantly larger gains in activity seem to still be fundamentally limited by the scaling relations.

Published: March 2024

We present a novel computational approach for predicting human pharmacokinetics (PK) that addresses the challenges of early-stage drug design. Our study introduces and describes a large-scale dataset of 11 clinical PK endpoints, encompassing over 2700 unique chemical structures to train machine learning models. To that end multiple advanced training strategies are compared, including the integration of in vitro data and a novel self-supervised pre-training task. In addition to the predictions, our final model provides meaningful epistemic uncertainties for every data point. This allows us to successfully identify regions of exceptional predictive performance, with an Absolute Average Fold Error (AAFE/GMFE) of less than 2.5 across multiple endpoints. These advancements represent a significant leap towards actionable PK predictions, which can be utilized early on in the drug design process to expedite development and reduce reliance on nonclinical studies.

Application of Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics to Improve Critical Thinking Skills of Children Aged 4-5 Years
Authors: Ramli Raodah Kusumawaty , Fitri Riskal , Nurhidaya Andi Rezky , Rachman Sidrah Afriani
Published: March 2024

The low ability of children's critical thinking is caused by various things, one of which is the limitations of educators in providing space for students to stimulate necessary thinking skills in the learning process. The learning approach, methods, and media have yet to help children fully build critical thinking skills. Overcoming these problems is one way that can support the achievement of children's necessary thinking skills with the STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics) learning model. This research method uses classroom action research methods to improve and increase the quality of learning regarding critical thinking skills. Based on the study results, there was an increase in all indicators of critical thinking in the development of student learning outcomes after being given action. The ability to think critically in children is evidenced by the average achievement category of Very Developed Children (BSB), with a percentage of in cycle one of 48.75% and in cycle two reaching 80.25%. The application of STEAM learning can improve critical thinking skills.
AMERICAN WRITERS PAY A VISIT TO THE USSR. “SPACE” AND “TIME” AS THE CORE CATEGORIES IN THE AMERICAN TRAVEL LITERATURE IN THE 1920-1940S
Authors:   Russian State University for the Humanities, Gulyamova Intizor T.
Published: March 2024

In the academic field, Soviet-American relations are more often studied in the context of the Cold War, while bilateral contacts in the first half of the 20th century are much less represented. Research focuses more on formal cultural diplomacy, implemented through the organization of cultural exhibitions, film festivals and creative initiatives, rather than on visits by foreign intellectuals motivated to see the Soviet country from the inside. The article examines the plot-forming categories of “space” and “time” in the travelogue works of American writers who personally visited the USSR in the 1920–1940s. The focus of the study is the travel diaries of Theodore Dreiser, Langston Hughes and John Steinbeck. Each travel journal operates within its own spatial boundaries and time period within the geography of the USSR and a given chronological period of the 20th century. The key aspect of this work is the analysis of the chronotope (according to M.M. Bakhtin), which represents the interconnection of temporal and spatial relations in the narrative. Being constructed by the writer, the chronotope consists of premises, signs, symbols and ideas that bear the imprint of the time of a given period and are inextricably linked with the figure of the author of each travel diary under consideration. This approach to the analysis of the diary text makes it possible to reveal the writer’s understanding of the reality around him, which he attributes with meaning in the context of the historical and political realities of the given epoch.
INTENTIONAL ANACHRONISM AS AN ACTUAL HISTORICAL EXPERIENCE (ON THE EXAMPLE OF THE INTERNET COMMUNITY “SUFFERING MIDDLE AGES”)
Authors:   Russian State University for the Humanities, Kostoglotov Dmitrii A.
Published: March 2024

The article formulates the concept of “deliberate anachronism”, which describes the widespread practice in modern culture of a mixing of different layers of time, the rejection of authenticity and the principles of historicism. Using the example of the community of the Suffering Middle Ages, it will be shown how elements of the past are used in the formulation of the present. The Suffering Middle Ages is a community that initially appeared on the Vkontakte social network and then spread widely. The main principle of the emerging materials – pictures with inscriptions – is the deliberate mixing of any medieval image with a short text corresponding to the present time. At the initial stage, the publications were associated with the culture of “funny pictures on the Internet”, ridiculing everyday, domestic situations. However, later, a significant part of the publications began to be made up of pictures that responded to the events taking place in society. This article will analyze this using the coronavirus pandemic as an example. Thus, a deliberate anachronism that “violates” historical time expresses modern historical experience, which, in the words of F.R. Ankersmit is a postmodern historical experience. Postmodern historical experience is understood as a concentration on the gap between the present and the past (some theorists call this phenomenon presentism), which becomes the basis of historical experience instead of the “independence of the past” in historicism. This mode of historical experience allows the materials of the community of the Suffering Middle Ages to become a successful system for formulating the present in the language of the past.

This paper provides a comprehensive harmonic picture of Photovoltaic operations integrated with the Electric Power System (Photovoltaic on-grid). Harmonics in Photovoltaic on-grid are generated from the inverter. One way to reduce harmonics is by installing a filter. Apart from reducing harmonics, filters can improve the system power factor value. This research examines the effect of variations in Photovoltaic on-grid filter parameters on inverter power capacity using Simulink/Matlab simulation. The FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) method is used to determine the harmonic order and THD of the current and voltage of the system on the side before and after the filter. The simulation results show changes in filter parameter variations for Qc (Var) values ​​giving THDi and THDv values ​​before and after filter installation using the FFT approach.

Grain-eating songbirds are often kept as a hobby. These birds have beautiful feather colors and melodious voices. One of the obstacles to maintaining songbirds is that the owner needs more time. The owner is busy working and going out of town, which can cause the bird not to get adequate feed and water, and the owner is also unable to monitor the health condition of the bird. Based on this, a songbird feeding and monitoring system based on IoT was created to monitor the remaining food and drinks in the tank using NodeMCU ESP32 as a system control and data sender to the internet. The system can provide feed and drinking water for pet birds automatically and is connected via the internet to Blynk to send monitoring results. Based on monitoring results, the feed consumption of seed-eating songbirds is 4.74 grams daily, equivalent to 43.14% of the bird's body weight.
