Authors: Marošević Nikol , Periša Vlatka , Sinčić- Petričević Jasminka
Published: February 2025

Aim: Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignant hematological disorder characterized by clonal plasma cell proliferation and is often associated with renal impairment, anemia, and increased mortality. This study aims to determine whether the hemoglobin-to-red cell distribution width ratio (HRR) at the time of diagnosis acts as an independent prognostic factor for overall survival (OS).Subjects and methods: This study included patients diagnosed with MM between 2017 and 2023 at the University Hospital Center Osijek. Data were obtained from medical records, and statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS 23 and MedCalc Statistical Software version 22.018 with significance set at α= 0.05.Results: A total of 56 patients with MM were included in the study, consisting of 29 (52%) males and 27 (48%) females. Male patients demonstrated significantly higher HRR values (P = 0.04), with notable variations related to the International Staging System (ISS). Patients with elevated HRR (HR = 0.63) had significantly longer survival rates. The cut-off HRR value for predicting mortality was ≤ 5.09. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis revealed that 42 patients (75%) had HRR values above 5.09, while 14 (25%) had values ≤ 5.09. Patients with HRR values above 5.09 demonstrated significantly better survival outcomes.Conclusion: There is a statistically significant difference in HRR values based on sex, ISS, and outcome, in male patients, patients in ISS stage I and survivors exhibiting higher HRR levels. Reduced HRR is associated with poorer outcomes and OS in MM patients, establishing HRR as a straightforward and valuable prognostic indicator for long-term survival in MM.
Sustainable and Efficient Extraction of Furfural from Bagasse: A Quantitative Analysis and Feasibility Study for Rural Economies
Authors: Asif Muhammad , Sultan Sana , Ishaq Subhan
Published: February 2025

Furfural, a valuable platform chemical produced from lignocellulosic biomass, has a wide range of commercial applications, including biofuels, polymers, and medicines. Sugarcane bagasse, an abundant agricultural waste, is a viable feedstock for furfural production because of its high cellulose and hemicellulose content. This study investigated the optimization of furfural extraction using sugarcane bagasse collected from sugar mills in Rahim Yar Khan, Pakistan. The extraction process used sulfuric acid hydrolysis with sodium chloride followed by distillation. Furfural yield was determined colorimetrically and verified by UV, FTIR, and NMR spectroscopy. The findings showed that furfural yields ranged from 7.5% to 10%, with a particular sample yielding the maximum amount. Economic feasibility was also determined by calculating the costs of raw materials, labor, and equipment. This study suggests that sugarcane bagasse from the region offers a sustainable and cost-effective feedstock for furfural production, contributing to rural economic development while reducing the environmental impact through green chemical techniques.
Water-mediated interactions between glycans are weakly repulsive and unexpectedly long-ranged
Authors: Shin Sucheol , Mugnai Mauro , Thirumalai Dave
Published: February 2025

Glycans, carbohydrates prevalent at the outer cell membrane, play an essential role in mediating cell-cell interactions as well as immune response. Despite their importance, interactions between them have not been characterized. Here, we reveal, using all-atom molecular dynamics simulations and free energy calculations, that water-mediated interactions between a pair of N-glycans without net charge are weakly repulsive with a range that exceeds their sizes. Unexpectedly, the effective glycan-glycan interactions decay logarithmically as the separation between them increases. Strikingly, this finding coincides exactly with the predicted interaction, which is entropic in origin, between two star polymers, consisting of long flexible polymers grafted onto colloidal particles. The weak repulsive interaction, which extends beyond the size of a glycan, is sensitive to the relative orientation of the glycans. The effective long-range repulsive interaction vanishes if the charges on water are turned off, thus establishing that electrostatic interactions, arising in part due to the persistent hydrogen bonds between water and the glycans, are responsible for the inter-glycan repulsion.
The effect of increased levels of reactive oxygen species in ejaculate on parameters of reproductive function in men with low fertility
Authors: Feskov O.M. , Zhylkova Ye. , Feskova I.A. , Ivanova G.V. , Blazhko O.V.
Published: February 2025

A high level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the ejaculate is one of the reasons for the failure in male reproductive function. Oxidative stress is defined as an imbalance between the formation of reactive oxygen species and the ability of the antioxidant system to detoxify them. An excess of reactive oxygen species in sperm can initiate pathological changes in spermatozoa, causing oxidative damage to cell membranes, proteins and DNA. Measurement of the content of reactive oxygen species is hindered by the lack of standardization. This study determined the effect of oxidative stress on standard microscopic parameters of the spermogram and the DNA fragmentation level of spermatozoa in the ejaculate of men with reduced reproductive function. The obtained results confirm the significant role of the detoxification system in maintaining normal microscopic parameters of the spermogram. A negative effect of a high level of reactive oxygen species in the ejaculate on the sperm motility, concentration and morphology of spermatozoa in men with reduced fertility was established (p<0.05). It is shown that the level of oxidative stress in the ejaculate is statistically significantly higher in patients with reduced parameters of the spermogram, compared with this indicator for men with normal indicators of reproductive function (p<0.01). No influence of men's age on microscopic indicators of ejaculate was found. No correlation was established between the level of reactive oxygen species and the percentage of spermatozoa with fragmented DNA in the ejaculate. However, it was shown that the proportion of spermatozoa with fragmented DNA is significantly higher in infertile patients compared to the group of men with normal reproductive function (p<0.05). Therefore, a high level of sperm DNA fragmentation in the ejaculate can also be considered as one of the reasons for the decline in male fertility. The necessity of determining the level of oxidative stress in men with reduced spermogram parameters as part of an examination to find out the causes of infertility in a couple has been proven. In the future, it is necessary to standardize the rules for taking the material and performing the analysis for determining the level of reactive oxygen species in the ejaculate.
Glaucoma detection based on fundus images using machine learning techniques
Authors: Jain Suba T. D. , Panneer Dhas L.
Published: February 2025

Glaucoma is a leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide, frequently progressing without noticeable symptoms until significant vision loss occurs. Early detection is essential for managing and mitigating its effects. However, traditional diagnostic methods, such as intraocular pressure tests and optical coherence tomography (OCT), may not be easily accessible in resource-limited areas. Fundus imaging, which captures the back of the eye, provides a non-invasive method to assess the optic nerve and retinal health, making it an effective option for glaucoma screening. By leveraging large datasets of labeled fundus images, machine learning algorithms can be trained to recognize early structural changes in the optic nerve and surrounding retinal nerve fiber layers indicative of glaucoma. Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) are especially useful in this application, as they can automatically extract relevant features from complex images without requiring manual intervention.This paper explores a machine learning-based approach for glaucoma detection using fundus images, aiming to develop an accessible and efficient diagnostic tool. This paper proposed Sobeledge detection for data preprocessing, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) for model selection, training, and evaluation. The proposed approach has the potential to provide accurate and scalable glaucoma screening solutions, potentially aiding early diagnosis and reducing the burden on healthcare systems. This method attains better accuracy rate.

Abstract
The applicant Syngenta Crop Protection AG submitted a request to the competent national authority in Spain to evaluate the confirmatory data that were identified for the active substance terbuthylazine in the framework of the maximum residue level (MRL) review under Article 12 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 as not available. Based on the information provided by the applicant and assessed by Spain, EFSA concludes that the tentative MRL is confirmed in sweet corn and sunflower seeds, but not in lupins/lupini beans and cotton seeds. Regarding livestock metabolism study, EFSA acknowledges that a new goat metabolism study was submitted. However, due to the shortcomings identified, the metabolism in ruminants cannot be fully depicted. Despite these deficiencies, it can be concluded that at the calculated maximum dietary burdens significant transfer of residues in bovine tissues and milk is not expected and therefore the tentative MRLs can be confirmed. The consumer risk assessment performed in the framework of the MRL review was updated using revision 3.1. of the PRIMo, considering the actual MRL values implemented in Regulation (EU) 2021/1795 and excluding the crops on which the uses are not supported by Article 12 confirmatory data (cotton seed and lupins/lupini beans). No consumer intake concerns were identified.

Dictaduras y humanidades presenta cuatro estudios sobre literatura testimonial, poesía, narrativa y rock’n roll en los contextos dictatoriales del siglo XX en Chile, Argentina y España. Es también un sencillo homenaje a la dignidad humana, la conservación de la memoria y la lucha que humanistas, artistas e intelectuales emprendieron contra el silencio y que les fue relatado a los autores por sus maestros (sobrevivientes y exiliados que sentidamente lo compartieron) cuando eran estudiantes en las aulas de sus universidades de formación. Esa es la premisa para haber tomado la pluma y el papel para escribir sobre las dictaduras y sus verdaderos horrores, ya que estamos en una época en la que es imprescindible tener memoria y aprender desde el pasado en esta clase de temas; es una tarea trascendental y necesaria ante las actuales manifestaciones del imaginario parcial y desarticulado, lleno de apreciaciones superficiales, tan extendidas y compartidas en las redes, de lo que se cree que es una dictadura en estos tiempos y, en particular, en México. Con una introducción de Martha Helena Montoya Vélez, este libro homenajea la pasión y entrega de aquellos maestros, sus reflexiones y emociones más íntimas e inteligentes sobre los horrores de una dictadura y las enseñanzas sobre la esperanza de un mundo atento, despierto y consciente en la decencia, la dignidad humana, el culto a la vida y la ética.

WORKPLACE WELL-BEING AS A CATALYST FOR ORGANIZATIONAL GROWTH: A GIG ECONOMY PERSPECTIVE
Authors: Soans Rovina Sharon , Naik Sheker
Published: February 2025

The gig economy, characterized by short-term contracts and freelance work, has witnessed unprecedented growth, fundamentally reshaping traditional employment structures. This study explores the crucial role of workplace well-being as a catalyst for organizational growth within this rapidly expanding sector. Gig workers face distinct challenges, including job insecurity, fluctuating income, and the absence of traditional employment benefits, which negatively impact their mental health, job satisfaction, and overall productivity. These factors contribute to stress, burnout, and decreased work efficiency, ultimately affecting organizational performance. By implementing targeted well-being initiatives—such as flexible work arrangements, mental health support programs, financial literacy training, and access to healthcare benefits—organizations can significantly enhance the quality of life for gig workers. The study examines global best practices and Indian government policies, including insights from the NITI Aayog (2022) report on India's gig economy, highlighting the necessity of structured welfare measures. Additionally, the study explores how organizations can leverage workplace well-being as a strategic tool to attract and retain talent in the gig economy. A well-designed well-being framework not only boosts worker engagement and productivity but also strengthens organizational reputation and sustainability. This research emphasizes the need for policy reforms, corporate responsibility, and collaborative efforts between businesses and governments to create an inclusive and fair gig economy. Ultimately, integrating well-being strategies into gig work environments fosters a mutually beneficial ecosystem, ensuring long-term growth for both workers and organizations.
Finance
Authors: Rudnyckyj Daromir
Published: February 2025

Finance is a critical dimension of life for most contemporary human beings. Finance refers to the management of money as debt, credit, or capital. Financial practices and techniques date to the dawn of human communities characterised by the division of labour. Indeed, the earliest written records kept in ancient Mesopotamia are records of credit and debt. As such, finance should not be understood as a synonym for capitalism or modernity, but rather as means of administering populations through the management of money. Financial instruments have been deployed in economic systems based on both markets and redistribution. More recently finance has become increasingly indispensable to the organisation of human life, an essential economic sector, and a key domain of employment. As such, it has attracted the attention of anthropologists seeking to understand the systems and practices that undergird human organisation, production, and motivation. Historically, anthropologists have focused most intensively on personal finance, beginning with rotating credit associations and continuing through development initiatives premised on microfinance. More recently, corporate finance has come into focus, with critical work on the discursive practices of market traders, investment bankers, and financial analysts. Less attention has been paid to public finance, with the notable exception of ethnographic research in central banks and newer work on pension funds and municipal bond markets. Anthropology has played a critical role in understanding the black box that is contemporary finance by addressing its practices and its effects on human beings today.

Epileptic seizures have a significant negative impact on the lives of patients, especially those who frequently experience relapses due to low medication adherence. Epilepsy patients often face stigma and social discrimination. Misunderstandings and negative societal attitudes, influenced by myths surrounding epilepsy, can prevent patients from seeking treatment and living confidently. This community service activity aimed to provide information and education about epilepsy, covering topics from its definition to an in-depth discussion of myths and facts about the disease. The ultimate goal was to enhance the knowledge of patients, their families, and visitors at the neurology outpatient clinic of Mataram University Hospital. The activity was conducted through interactive counseling sessions using PowerPoint presentations. Participants completed a pre-test before the counseling session, followed by a question-and-answer discussion after the material was delivered, and concluded with a post-test. A total of 56 participants attended. Both pre-test and post-test consisted of five questions addressing basic knowledge about the definition of epilepsy, myths and facts, and appropriate actions when encountering an epileptic seizure. The average pre-test score was 68.57, while the average post-test score increased to 76.44 after the educational session and discussion. Effective communication, education, and information dissemination proved to be key solutions for improving participants' knowledge. These efforts are expected to help epilepsy patients avoid stigma, gain full support from family and their surroundings, ensure optimal treatment outcomes, and enable patients to live confidently. Effective education and communication are critical in improving understanding of epilepsy, reducing stigma, and fostering social support for epilepsy patients.

The Vaname Shrimp Cultivation Group of Sindanglaya Village, Cinangka District, Serang Regency - Banten which is currently in the form of a cooperative with the name of the Tunas Harapan Core Producer Cooperative. The urgency of this community-based empowerment activity is the need for an increase in technology, especially in the cultivation of vaname shrimp, the problems that occur in the community based on the results of studies and identification of vaname shrimp farmers are known to be the process of preparing shrimp feed. Where the process of mixing shrimp feed still uses manual methods or using hands so that it is not evenly distributed and takes a long time. The next problem in pond management in the process of checking the quality of water content still uses an uncalibrated pH meter.

Sampah organic banyak ditemukan di sekitar kita termasuk di Rumah Sakit Khusus Jiwa Soeprapto (RSKJS) Provinsi Bengkulu. Sampah organic ini belum dimanfaatkan secara maksimal di RSKJS Provinsi Bengkulu dan tim pengabdi ingin memaksimalkan pemanfatan sampah organic yang ada dengan memberdayakan Orang Dengan Gangguan Jiwa (ODGJ) melalui kegiatan pembuatan desinfektan organic menggunakan bahan baku ecoenzym. Kegiatan pengabdian ini mempunyai tujuan memberikan pengetahuan dan keterampilan baru bagi ODGJ sehingga lebih siap ketika akan kembali ke masyarakat terutama dalam pengolahan sampah organic yaitu pembuatan ecoenzym. Kegiatan ini dilakukan menggunakan metode edukasi, simulasi (praktek), dan pendampingan. Tim pengabdian melakukan koordinasi ke unit rehabilitasi psikososial RSKJS Provinsi Bengkulu untuk melakukan diskusi tentang permasalahan yang dihadapi mitra saat ini, selanjutnya menyusun rencana pelaksanaan pembuatan desinfektan organic menggunakan bahan baku ecoenzym. Pembuatan ecoenzym dilakukan oleh ODGJ secara keseluruhan dan pembuatan desinfektan dilakukan oleh professional.

Polusi udara semakin menjadi masalah global yang serius, didorong oleh peningkatan aktivitas industri, transportasi, dan penggunaan bahan bakar fosil. Polutan seperti partikel halus, sulfur dioksida (SO₂), nitrogen oksida (NOx), karbon monoksida (CO), dan senyawa organik volatil (VOCs) mengancam kesehatan manusia serta kelestarian lingkungan. Desa Tlasih di Sidoarjo, Jawa Timur, yang dikenal sebagai sentra industri kerupuk, berpotensi menjadi sumber polusi udara akibat penggunaan bahan bakar yang tidak ramah lingkungan dalam proses produksi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kesadaran masyarakat Tlasih mengenai dampak polusi udara melalui kegiatan sosialisasi yang dilakukan secara langsung kepada kelompok produsen kerupuk pada 26 Juli 2024. Metode sosialisasi melibatkan pemaparan materi tentang efek polusi udara terhadap kesehatan dan lingkungan serta pengenalan bahan bakar alternatif yang lebih bersih. Hasil survei menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar responden sudah memiliki kesadaran dasar terkait polusi udara, dengan 17,5% responden memiliki pemahaman mendalam dan 65% cukup mengetahui dampaknya. Meskipun demikian, hanya sedikit yang terlibat secara aktif dalam kegiatan sosialisasi atau tindakan pengurangan polusi udara. Sosialisasi lebih lanjut diperlukan untuk mengubah pola pikir dan meningkatkan keterlibatan aktif masyarakat. Studi ini menyarankan agar kampanye edukasi lingkungan lebih ditingkatkan, terutama yang berfokus pada solusi praktis dalam mengurangi polusi, guna menciptakan lingkungan yang lebih sehat di Desa Tlasih dan sekitarnya.
