Authors: Liu Shing-Hong , Huang Tai-Shen , Zhu Xin , Tan Tan-Hsu , Wang Jia-Jung
Published: September 2024

Mobile health (mHealth) was developed ten years ago, which used wireless wearable devices to collect the many physiological messages in daily life, regardless of time and place, for some health services including monitoring chronic diseases and reducing the cost of empowering patients and families for handling their daily healthcare. However, the challenge for these measurements is the lower signal quality because users would measure their conditions not on a resting status. Now, the pulse transit time (PTT) is highly related to blood pressure has been proposed, which is acquired from the impedance plethysmography (IPG) and ballistocardiogram (BCG) measured by the weight-fat scale. However, the lower signal quality of IPG and BCG, lowers the accuracy of blood pressure. This study aims to use deep learning techniques to classify the signal quality of BCG and IPG signals. The reference PTTs were measured by the electrocardiogram (ECG) and photoplethysmogram (PPG). The signal quality of each segment was labeled with the error between proposed and reference PTTs. We used three signals, BCG, IPG, and differential IPG, as the input. The proposed one-dimensional stacking convolutional neural network and gait recursive unit (1-D CNN+GRU) model to approach the classification. The good performances achieved high accuracy (98.85%), recall (99.4%), precision (94.29%), and F1-score (96.78%). These results show the potential benefit of the signal quality classification for the PTT measurement.

Sirtuin 1 in regulating the p53/glutathione peroxidase 4/gasdermin D axis in acute liver failure
Authors: Katoch Swati , Patial Vikram
Published: September 2024

In this editorial, we comment on the article by Zhou et al . The study reveals the connection between ferroptosis and pyroptosis and the effect of silent information regulator sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) activation in acute liver failure (ALF). ALF is characterized by a sudden and severe liver injury resulting in significant hepatocyte damage, often posing a high risk of mortality. The predominant form of hepatic cell death in ALF involves apoptosis, ferroptosis, autophagy, pyroptosis, and necroptosis. Glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) inhibition sensitizes the cell to ferroptosis and triggers cell death, while Gasdermin D (GSDMD) is a mediator of pyroptosis. The study showed that ferroptosis and pyroptosis in ALF are regulated by blocking the p53/GPX4/GSDMD pathway, bridging the gap between the two processes. The inhibition of p53 elevates the levels of GPX4, reducing the levels of inflammatory and liver injury markers, ferroptotic events, and GSDMD-N protein levels. Reduced p53 expression and increased GPX4 on deletion of GSDMD indicated ferroptosis and pyroptosis interaction. SIRT1 is a NAD-dependent deacetylase, and its activation attenuates liver injury and inflammation, accompanied by reduced ferroptosis and pyroptosis-related proteins in ALF. SIRT1 activation also inhibits the p53/GPX4/GSDMD axis by inducing p53 acetylation, attenuating LPS/D-GalN-induced ALF.
Examining dietary interventions in Crohn’s disease
Authors: Chen Lynna , Srinivasan Ashish , Vasudevan Abhinav
Published: September 2024

This editorial builds on the article by Shakhshir et al . We conducted an overview of evidence-based dietary interventions in adults with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). In the IBD population, there may be a role for the Mediterranean diet due to its anti-inflammatory effects, long-term sustainability, and role in improving cardiovascular health. In active Crohn’s disease, the use of exclusive enteral nutrition, the Crohn’s disease exclusion diet, or the specific carbohydrate diet may be used as a short-term adjunct to medical therapy and may improve mucosal healing. The low-FODMAP diet can assist in reducing symptoms for patients without evidence of active bowel inflammation. As interest in nutritional therapy increases amongst clinicians and patients alike, it is integral that dietary therapies are understood and discussed in routine management of patients with IBD as part of holistic care, ideally through a multidisciplinary setting with involvement of experienced dietitians. This serves to improve clinician-patient engagement and reduce complications of IBD including micro and micronutrient deficiencies.

Published: September 2024

The purpose of this research is to determine the procedure for paying supplier debts on accounts payable for the period January-December 2023 at Hotel X. The data analysis technique used in this research is descriptive qualitative based on data collection from interviews and observations. This research was motivated by the delay in payment of debts to suppliers. The research conducted at Hotel X revealed that delays in debt payments were caused by the fact that the procedures for paying debts to suppliers at Hotel X were not implemented according to the concept. The receiving department does not provide a received stamp on the invoice, there is a price adjustment on the invoice so the payable account cannot record the invoice. There is no cost controller, so no one checks the documents before they are submitted to the accounts payable department. The Accounts Payable section delays several tasks, such as not completing supporting documents when recording debts. The cashier's department is not involved in making payments to suppliers, so the accounts payable department has more responsibility. This research helps to provide management with suggestions and solutions to minimise the problems and impacts that occur so that objectives can be achieved.

Authors: SANDAY KIFANTA
Published: September 2024

This study looked at the effect of equity financing on financial performance of SMEs in Uganda. Although equity financing is important in explaining the creation of SMEs, the extent to which equity financing affects the performance of SMEs is not well known. The study was guided by the following objectives, to examine the relationship between retained profits and the Return on Investment (ROI) of SMEs, to investigate the effect of Contributions from friends on return on assets (ROA) of SMEs and to examine the effect of Own Savings on the sales growth of SMEs. The research was carried out in Kampala district, Kawempe Division. Kampala was chosen because it is one of the regions with the highest concentration of businesses. The research adopted a descriptive survey design and targeted all small and medium enterprises in Kawempe division. Major focus was on accessible SMEs and the population was 70 registered SMEs in Kawempe Division. The sample was determined using simple random sampling. The study used primary data that was collected from the respondents using self-administered semi-structured open and close ended questionnaire. A five step likert scale was used for close ended questions. The collected data was refined, coded, and analyzed using STATA 12 and MS Excel to give more meaning to the findings of the study. The research findings indicated that 47% of the businesses were in the early stages of growth while 43% of the business units have exceeded the infancy stage of growth. The most preferred form of businesses in Kawempe Division was sole proprietorship. This could be highly attributed to the ease in legal requirement during formation, capital requirement and exercising full control of the business while least preferred form of business was limited company. From the study it was evident that equity finance had a positive relationship to financial performance of the SMEs. SMEs prefer equity of own savings. This is because the entrepreneurs prefer to own risks at the same time avoiding any undesirable change in ownership. This is because most of the businesses are sole proprietorship forms of businesses which are controlled and managed by the owners.

Pediments of domestic building are spaces for ornamentation inspired by the modern Yoruba culture of sealing up domestic buildings with gated fences. The erected fences often conceal ornamented buildings, thus preventing the showcasing of the beautiful embellishments on lower walls, in line with the institutionalized ostentation in Yoruba culture. The embellishment of pediments in Yorubaland, has not been treated with deserved importance despite the uniqueness of the forms, which leaves a gap in literature on this topic. This discourse examines and analyses the images on the pediments of domestic buildings, with the view to documenting the artistic embellishments and revealing the social-cultural significances of the presented forms. The study carried out in Osogbo metropolis, South-western Nigeria, utilized the ethnographic approach, with data derived mostly from primary sources. The paper submits that images on pediments send out information about the philosophies, religious and the socio-cultural affiliations of the owners of these sealed-up buildings to passers-by. It is also observed that although ornamented pediments beautify buildings, they are more of status symbols and are better appreciated from afar, thus enhancing the urban fabric in general.
From Tragedy to Achievement: The Case of the Refugees of the Asia Minor Disaster in the Modern History of Greece. Refugees’ Access to Education
Authors: Kiriakidis Marios
Published: September 2024

The Asia Minor catastrophe of 1922 changed world history. The mass displacement of Greek Orthodox and Muslim populations troubled the world community. The fate of these populations was tested, forcing the Great Powers of the time, who bore significant responsibility for this disaster, to hasten the process of concluding an agreement between Greece and Turkey: the well-known Treaty of Lausanne. Hastily signed on January 30, 1923, it included an agreement on the exchange of Greek and Turkish populations as an integral part of the Treaty of Lausanne, signed six months later. This massive uprooting dramatically changed the geographical, population, and social map of Greece and marked the violent exclusion of Greek cultural elements and spirit from historical areas of the ancient Greek world. The refugees faced enormous problems in Greece, such as survival, housing, finding work, and educating their children. Political leadership was divided, and education was shaken.
