Due to the large variability in average consumer prices for dairy products in the regions of the Russian Federation, an analysis of its causes and determining factors is relevant. The purpose of the work is to build a machine learning model that reflects the dependence of average consumer prices for drinking whole pasteurized milk with 2,5–3,2% fat content in the regions of the Russian Federation on indicators characterizing the production and consumption of dairy products, population size, and income. As a result, based on statistical data for 2016–2021. a model based on the gradient boosting algorithm was built. The significance of the model lies in the possibility of using it to identify and analyze the influence of individual regional characteristics (milk production, number of dairies, number of cows, milk yield, rural and urban population, per capita income, etc.) on average consumer prices for pasteurized milk in the regions RF. Understanding the factors in the formation of consumer prices on a regional basis is of practical importance for trading enterprises selling dairy products, as well as for dairy industry enterprises.

Published: November 2023

The largest companies have recognized the need for access to a global knowledge network in order to develop and acquire new technologies that help to function effectively in modern economic conditions. To coordinate access to this knowledge network, innovative platforms have been developed, on the basis of which new enterprises and small companies have the opportunity to introduce their innovations. These platforms allowed the formation of innovative ecosystems, which became the basis for the creation of new enterprises of various types. In recent years, innovative platforms have dominated many industries. As a rule, an innovation platform includes a platform manager inviting other companies and individuals to introduce innovations. Platform participants are developing innovative programs for global coverage and improving the functionality of new products. These innovations make it possible to develop and form ecosystems of the global economy.

Authors: Martínez David Q. , Lorca Francisco , Fernández Maria Dolores , García Presentación
Published: November 2023

Aim: Food production demand has been promoting an increase in the generation of agro-industrial waste. Food industry waste can contain compounds with added value that, if properly extracted and used, can be applied to the development of healthy foods (clean label), nutraceuticals, senior food, cosmetics, etc. The revaluation of by-products from the broccoli industry will make it possible to reduce the large volume of broccoli waste, reducing the cost of waste management and obtaining compounds of interest from them. The aim of this work is the extraction of compounds of interest by means of environmentally sustainable technologies and to characterize the freeze-dried broccoli extracts obtained in each green technology in terms of their characteristic compounds of interest and the study of antimicrobial and antioxidant capacity.
Methods: The methods of extraction of compounds of interest from broccoli used in this research are environmentally sustainable technologies, using water as the extraction solvent, including aqueous extraction (AE), enzymatic extraction (EE), and ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE). After extraction, the freeze-dried broccoli extracts obtained were characterized and the antimicrobial capacity was studied with Listeria and Salmonella strains and the antioxidant capacity was studied with Saccharomyces strains, thus determining which of the techniques is most effective for obtaining a freeze-dried broccoli extract with a high concentration of bioactive compounds.
Results: As a result of the research, different products have been obtained from broccoli waste by means of three green extraction techniques, obtaining products with a high concentration of bioactive compounds with antioxidant and antimicrobial capacity against strains such as Listeria and Salmonella.
Conclusions: The waste generated in the broccoli industry has been revalued to obtain high added value products using environmentally sustainable techniques. Due to their high concentration of bioactive compounds, these products are effective as functional products due to their antioxidant and antimicrobial capacity.

Authors: Imron Nanda Ahda , Almas Muhammad Farid , Nurhadi Muhammad , Prihatanto Rusman
Published: November 2023

Stasiun Terminus adalah suatu stasiun Kereta Api (KA) yang menjadi titik awal/akhir perjalanan suatu KA. Stasiun Bogor merupakan stasiun salah satu stasiun terminus yang sangat sibuk bagi perjalanan KA Komuter (KRL) Jabodetabek. Terdapat 8 jalur untuk menunjang perjalanan KA di stasiun ini. Jalur keberangkatan (IV s.d VIII ) berpotongan dengan jalur kedatangan KRL menyebabkan konflik perjalanan (conflict route). Yaitu, KRL yang datang ditahan sinyal masuk karena diutamakan KRL yang berangkat, sehingga perlu dikaji tingkat konfliknya. Metode conflict rate digunakan untuk menganalisis tingkat konflik dengan membandingkan varian pola interlocking yang kompleks di stasiun menggunakan tabel definisi pergerakan KA. Hasil analisis kondisi eksisting dengan pembebanan pada masing-masing rute, ditemukan nilai conflict rate sebesar 81% (dari 329 KA, 266 KA berpotensi terdampak oleh rute konflik). Kemudian dilakukan rekayasa jalur dengan berbagai alternatif. Pada alternatif 1 dengan mengubah daftar jalur pada beberapa KA, nilai conflict rate untuk KA yang melintas turun menjadi 79% (260 KA terdampak). Pada alternatif 2 dengan penambahan jalur penghubung, nilai conflict rate turun menjadi 77% (253 KA terdampak). Sedangkan alternatif 3 dengan perpanjangan jalur/emplasemen, nilai conflict rate turun menjadi 74% (243 KA terdampak). Dengan melihat hasil di atas, maka alternatif 3 dinilai lebih efisien mendukung kegiatan operasi dibandingkan alternatif 1 dan 2.

Authors: Kozák Vladislav , Vala Jiří
Published: November 2023

The purpose of this paper is to show the results of a study focused on the occurrence of damage heterogeneous materials, especially on the issue of modelling crack formation and propagation. In the beginning the attention is paid to the direct application of the finite element method to different types of materials in order to find critical parameters determining behaviour of materials at damage process. The applications of damage mechanics and possible approaches to model the origin of a crack propagation through modifications in FEM systems are presented and some practical applications are tested. Main effort is devoted to cement fibre composites and the search for new methods for their more accurate modelling, especially close to the field stress concentrator, respectively ahead of the crack tip. Modified XFEM method has been used as a suitable tool for numerical modelling.
Benzoimidazolium-derived dimeric and hydride n-dopants for organic electron-transport materials: impact of substitution on structures, electrochemistry, and reactivity

Published: November 2023

1,3-Dimethyl-2,3-dihydrobenzo[d]imidazoles, 1H, and 1,1',3,3'-tetramethyl-2,2',3,3'-tetrahydro-2,2'-bibenzo[d]imidazoles, 12, are of interest as n-dopants for organic electron-transport materials. Salts of 2-(4-(dimethylamino)phenyl)-4,7-dimethoxy-, 2-cyclohexyl-4,7-dimethoxy-, and 2-(5-(dimethylamino)thiophen-2-yl)benzo[d]imidazolium (1g–i+, respectively) have been synthesized and reduced with NaBH4 to 1gH, 1hH, and 1iH, and with Na:Hg to 1g2 and 1h2. Their electrochemistry and reactivity were compared to those derived from 2-(4-(dimethylamino)phenyl)- (1b+) and 2-cyclohexylbenzo[d]imidazolium (1e+) salts. E(1+/1•) values for 2-aryl species are less reducing than for 2-alkyl analogues, i.e., the radicals are stabilized more by aryl groups than the cations, while 4,7-dimethoxy substitution leads to more reducing E(1+/1•) values, as well as cathodic shifts in E(12•+/12) and E(1H•+/1H) values. Both the use of 3,4-dimethoxy and 2-aryl substituents accelerates the reaction of the 1H species with PC61BM. Because 2-aryl groups stabilize radicals, 1b2 and 1g2 exhibit weaker bonds than 1e2 and 1h2 and thus react with 6,13-bis(triisopropylsilylethynyl)pentacene (VII) via a “cleavage-first” pathway, while 1e2 and 1h2 react only via “electron-transfer-first”. 1h2 exhibits the most cathodic E(12•+/12) value of the dimers considered here and, therefore, reacts more rapidly than any of the other dimers with VII via “electron-transfer-first”. Crystal structures show rather long central C–C bonds for 1b2 (1.5899(11) and 1.6194(8) Å) and 1h2 (1.6299(13) Å).

Authors:   Roma Tre University, Italy, Levi Decio , Rodríguez Miguel A. ,   Universidad Complutense de Madrid, Spain
Published: November 2023

Determining if an (1+1)-differential-difference equation is integrable or not (in the sense of possessing an infinite number of symmetries) can be reduced to the study of the dependence of the equation on the lattice points, according to Yamilov's theorem. We shall apply this result to a class of differential-difference equations obtained as partial continuous limits of 3-points difference equations in the plane and conclude that they cannot be integrable.

Authors: Mohamed Asmaa Abdelaziz , Kbah Noor Zuhair , Wennas Osama N.
Published: November 2023

This study aimed to consolidate rupatadine fumarate (RF) into nanoparticles to control its release. Ten RF nanoparticles were developed by nanoprecipitation using poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) , polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), and Poloxamer 407 (Kolliphor P 407) in different percentages. A valid reverse-phase HPLC method was developed to assess RF in the formulated nanoparticles. The RF nanoparticles were tested chemically and morphologically. RF nanoparticles containing PLGA and PVA and Kolliphor P 407 have zeta potentials ranging from -24.4 mV±0.24 to -26.7 mV±0.05, higher than other formulations, and their release profiles were optimised. The formula (RPX3) had the best zeta potential (-26.7 mV±0.05), released about 86% of RF after 8 h and extended for 24 h. In summary, the formulation (RPX3), including 2:10:3:1.5 ratios of the drug PLGA: PVA: Kolliphor P 407 was the optimised RF-loaded nanoparticles formulation.

A fixed point iterative scheme based on Green's function for numerical solutions of singular BVPs
Authors: Ahmad Junaid , Arshad Muhammad , George Reny
Published: November 2023

We suggest a novel iterative scheme for solutions of singular boundary value problems (SBVPs) that is obtained by embedding Green's function into the Picard-Mann Hybrid (PMH) iterative scheme. This new scheme we call PMH-Green's iterative scheme and prove its convergence towards a sought solution of certain SBVPs. We impose possible mild conditions on the operator or on the parameters involved in our scheme to obtain our main outcome. After this, we prove that this new iterative scheme is weak $ w^{2} $-stable. Eventually, using two different numerical examples of SBVPs, we show that our new approach suggests highly accurate numerical solutions as compared the corresponding Picard-Green's and Mann-Green's iterative schemes.

Berlijn wordt ons Graf. Een requiem voor de goddelozen
Authors: Capiau Brecht
Published: November 2023

STRIPS. ‘Het Verdrag van Versailles is niets meer en niets minder dan een wapenstilstand van twintig jaar’. Deze profetische quote van de Franse maarschalk Ferdinand Foch werd niet alleen gedeeld door John J. Pershing - de Amerikaanse generaal had ten tijde van de wapenstilstand zelfs vergevorderde plannen om Berlijn aan te vallen. Volgens hem kon alleen in het hart van het Duitse keizerrijk de Eerste Wereldoorlog definitief worden beëindigd. Het is dan ook bijzonder sarcastisch dat de Tweede Wereldoorlog uitgerekend in datzelfde Berlijn werd beslist. Het wordt nog complexer als je weet dat de laatste verdedigingslinie van het Derde Rijk grotendeels uit buitenlandse vrijwilligers bestond. Een van die verdedigers was de SS-divisie Charlemagne. Striptekenaar Michel Koeniguer maakte een indrukwekkend stripdrieluik over haar exploten in die turbulente nadagen van het nazisme.

Changes of Communication in Biomedical Sciences and Health
Authors: Caria Helena
Published: November 2023

Scientific and technological developments are unquestionable, being health in general and human genetics specifically, domains where high throughputs are gorgeous. The internet is changing the behavior of patients with clinicians and health organizations. The project of human genomes ensured new approaches to estimate cause-disease relations. Genotype-phenotype correlations and screening of mutation are now available to all researchers. However, the scientific data are also available to the patients, bringing them to the floor as active partners in therapeutic processes searching with ”Dr. Google” for symptoms, treatments, and cures. Hereditary deafness is not escaping from this civil movement, being a good example of the behavioral change associated with the explosion of the internet, with the commercial offers of hearing aids and cochlear implants offers to be common nowadays. In the chapter, the authors discuss the internet of behaviors in the context of biomedical sciences as human genetics, and hearing loss.

Published: November 2023

The IoE Grid Computing Framework will be used to look into high-performance computing tools for higher education institutions. The primary and secondary data from higher education organizations are used to make the model and architecture. So, using a computational IoE grid and the supported toolkits, a model of the event was made. To see how well resources and related algorithms work, they are put to the test in different situations, such as by confirming the number of resources and users with different needs. To determine the level of demand for high-performance computing tools, data were gathered from particular colleges and universities. Before the data was fed into the system, preprocessing tasks like handling missing values and choosing features were completed. The findings demonstrate that these traits and the requirement for high-performance computing resources in higher education institutions are strongly related.

Stealth Assessment in Game-Based and Task-Based Language Teaching
Authors: Liu Di , Ji Hyangeun , Kliger Dominique
Published: November 2023

Language's complex and dynamic nature requires language assessment to be conducted on spontaneous speech in authentic contexts. Assessment in task-based language teaching has the potential to achieve this goal and would benefit from a game-based virtual environment. However, conducting assessments in game-based and task-based teaching remains challenging. Based on the data collected in a workshop for 15 pre-service and in-service teachers, this chapter reports difficulties in leveraging assessment in game-based and task-based language teaching from teachers' perspectives. Results highlight the need to adopt a stealth assessment approach. This chapter proposes a constructive framework for stealth assessment in language teaching. Specific technological tools such as automated speech recognition, eye-tracking, and artificial intelligence are discussed, with a focus on their application in stealth assessment for game-based and task-based language teaching.

Authors: Saju Ciji , Barnes Arianna , Kuramatsu Joji B. , Marshall Jade L. , Obinata Hirofumi , Puccio Ava M. , Yokobori Shoji , Olson DaiWai M. ,   for the END-PANIC Investigators
Published: November 2023

Background

Anisocoria (unequal pupil size) has been defined using cut points ranging from greater than 0.3 mm to greater than 2.0 mm for absolute difference in pupil size. This study explored different pupil diameter cut points for assessing anisocoria as measured by quantitative pupillometry before and after light stimulus.

Methods

An exploratory descriptive study of international registry data was performed. The first observations in patients with paired left and right quantitative pupillometry measurements were included. Measurements of pupil size before and after stimulus with a fixed light source were used to calculate anisocoria.

Results

The sample included 5769 patients (mean [SD] age, 57.5 [17.6] years; female sex, 2558 patients [51.5%]; White race, 3669 patients [75.5%]). Anisocoria defined as pupil size difference of greater than 0.5 mm was present in 1624 patients (28.2%) before light stimulus; 645 of these patients (39.7%) also had anisocoria after light stimulus (P < .001). Anisocoria defined as pupil size difference of greater than 2.0 mm was present in 79 patients (1.4%) before light stimulus; 42 of these patients (53.2%) also had anisocoria after light stimulus (P < .001).

Discussion

The finding of anisocoria significantly differed before and after light stimulus and according to the cut point used. At most cut points, fewer than half of the patients who had anisocoria before light stimulus also had anisocoria after light stimulus.

Conclusion

The profound difference in the number of patients adjudicated as having anisocoria using different cut points reinforces the need to develop a universal definition for anisocoria.

Authors: Petrinec Amy B. , Wilk Cindy , Hughes Joel W. , Zullo Melissa D. , George Richard L.
Published: November 2023

Background

Post–intensive care syndrome–family (PICS-F) is a constellation of adverse psychological symptoms experienced by family members of critically ill patients during and after acute illness. Cognitive behavioral therapy delivered using smartphone technology is a novel approach for PICS-F symptom self-management.

Objective

To determine the efficacy of smartphone delivery of cognitive behavioral therapy in reducing the prevalence and severity of PICS-F symptoms in family members of critically ill patients.

Methods

The study had a randomized controlled longitudinal design with control and intervention groups composed of family members of patients admitted to 2 adult intensive care units. The intervention consisted of a mental health app loaded on participants’ personal smartphones. The study time points were upon enrollment (within 5 days of intensive care unit admission; time 1), 30 days after enrollment (time 2), and 60 days after enrollment (time 3). Study measures included demographic data, PICS-F symptoms, mental health self-efficacy, health-related quality of life, and app use.

Results

The study sample consisted of 60 predominantly White (72%) and female (78%) family members (30 intervention, 30 control). Anxiety and depression symptom severity decreased significantly over time in the intervention group but not in the control group. Family members logged in to the app a mean of 11.4 times (range, 1-53 times) and spent a mean of 50.16 minutes (range, 1.87-245.92 minutes) using the app.

Conclusions

Delivery of cognitive behavioral therapy to family members of critically ill patients via a smartphone app shows some efficacy in reducing PICS-F symptoms.

The approach to and challenges in measuring innovation in China
Authors: Li Yuxin , Yang Jiang , Warhurst Chris
Published: November 2023

In China and elsewhere, innovation features strongly in government policy as a key driver of economic development. Being able to measure innovation performance is therefore important. This paper analyses China’s approach to measuring the country’s innovation performance. In doing so and using documentary analysis, it evaluates the conceptualisation and data collection that underpin and support that measurement. The findings show that China focuses on a science and technology approach to measuring innovation. The weaknesses of this approach are identified: first, the conceptual scope is too narrow due to its exclusion of non-technological innovation; second, relatedly, data gathering is limited quantitatively and qualitatively in its coverage of types of innovation; and, third, the sample population is biased, acting to excluding a significant number of firms and employees. These weaknesses undermine understanding of innovation performance in China. With this analysis, this paper provides the first evaluation of China’s innovation conceptualization and measurement and, based on the findings, provides suggestions to address these weaknesses and improve the measurement of innovation performance and which have applicability beyond China. For China and other countries such as those which are members of the OECD and EU, the evidence provided in this paper suggest that there is a pressing need to adopt this broader policy approach and support it through the development of appropriate measures and data collection.
Employee Participation, Digital Sophistication and Innovation Performance
Authors: Alasoini Tuomo , Selander Kirsikka
Published: November 2023

The results of the Finnish MEADOW survey of 2021–2022, comprising responses of management from 1,106 companies, show that nearly half of Finnish companies employing ten or more people had produced a new or significantly improved product or service during the last two years. Of these companies, almost half had produced products or services new also to the market. Both the level of digital sophistication and the extent of employee participation in development are positively associated with the company’s innovation performance after all other factors in the multinominal regression analysis are controlled. The odds ratios in the regression models are higher for innovations new to the market than innovations new only for the company. Broad employee participation shows the highest odds ratios of all variables included in the regression models for both types of innovation. As also companies’ cooperation networks and customer involvement can play a role in innovations, we analysed the combined effect of the above four factors on innovation. A clear positive combined effect for both innovations new to the market and new only for the company was detected, suggesting that it is difficult for companies to build innovation superiority based on technological ability alone – or any other single factor – and that broad employee participation in development is an essential part of the portrait of an innovative company also in the digital age.

Este artículo examina los retos y la importancia de adaptar las pruebas psicológicas. La psicología, como ciencia que estudia la mente y el comportamiento, se enfrenta a la singular complejidad de evaluar constructos intangibles como las emociones, los pensamientos y las actitudes. A diferencia de otras disciplinas científicas, las mediciones psicológicas suelen ser indirectas y estar influidas por errores de medición. En consecuencia, es crucial garantizar su fiabilidad y validez. Este artículo profundiza en los pasos fundamentales para realizar adaptaciones de pruebas psicológicas. Dado que la mayor parte de la investigación psicológica procede de países anglosajones, es esencial modificar las pruebas para adaptarlas a poblaciones e idiomas diversos. Por ello, un aspecto crítico es la adaptación lingüística y cultural de los instrumentos y pruebas psicológicas. Se resalta la importancia de las perspectivas émicas y éticas para comprender los matices culturales y lingüísticos y se abordan los posibles sesgos y heurísticos que pueden influir en los resultados de las pruebas. Además, se destaca el papel de la adaptación para promover una mejor comprensión del comportamiento humano en diversos contextos culturales. Por último, se presenta una síntesis clara de los pasos para la adaptación de las pruebas, siguiendo las directrices de la International Test Commission (ITC). La incorporación de consideraciones culturales y lingüísticas en la adaptación de las pruebas mejorará sin duda la eficacia y aplicabilidad de las evaluaciones psicológicas en poblaciones diversas.

The paper presents the implementation of remote monitoring and control of a hybrid power plant for irrigation of crops on a private agricultural plot of about 10ha in the town of Belegiš. The hybrid irrigation system is based on the dominant use of renewable energy sources (RES), solar and wind, with the use of a strong 48V/1000Ah battery bank and a 7.5 kW dieselelectric generator as a back-up power source. The used irrigation pump is driven by a three-phase asynchronous electric motor with a power of 5.5 kW, which is supplied by a frequency regulator. Frequency regulation is used to pressure and flow control in the irrigation pipeline and provides additional efficiency of the system. As part of the system, all necessary elements of power electronics (solar and wind MPPT chargers, inverters and frequency regulator) have been implemented, which are networked together. The entire control system is based on a control module that controls the charging of the battery bank, controls the operation of the inverter, and acquires all the necessary measurements in the hybrid power supply system. Through the ETERNET port, this module is connected to the central computer that controls the operation of the entire hybrid plant. This computer is based on BEAGLEBONE BLACK processor. This module has the ability to receive and send data remotely via GSM/GPRS, a module through which it is possible to monitor all relevant parameters of the system, and it is also possible to remotely control of the irrigation system.
