Geopolymers are alternatives to ordinary Portland cement as construction materials. The increasing demand for sustainable construction materials has driven the utilization of industrial by-products and agricultural waste. The disposal of oil palm frond (OPF) biomass as waste in landfills poses significant environmental challenges, necessitating effective recycling strategies. This study examines the incorporation and feasibility of OPF as a reinforcing fiber in fly ash geopolymer composites, examining its impact on physical and mechanical properties. Various parameters were tested, including fiber content (10–20 wt.%), shapes (shredded and tubular), and lengths (1–3 cm). The geopolymer composites with 10 wt.% shredded oil palm frond and 1-cm tubular oil palm frond fibers enhance the compressive strength by 17% compared to the control sample without oil palm frond. The shredded oil palm frond was particularly effective, enhancing strength performance and achieving better dispersion within the geopolymer matrix. Conversely, increasing the fiber content and length generally resulted in diminished composite strength, attributed to the creation of a more porous structure and weaker fiber-matrix interactions. However, lower fiber additions were shown to decrease porosity and water absorption, highlighting the potential of optimized oil palm frond fiber content and form in improving the environmental and mechanical performance of geopolymer composites. These results support the viability of oil palm frond as a sustainable additive in geopolymers, contributing to waste reduction and material innovation in construction.

Published: October 2024

In this study, copper (Cu) is introduced as a foreign metal ion replacing platinum by modifying the recipe of GNBPs and the final structure obtained is gold bone nanorods (GBNRs). The aspect ratio and surface density of GBNRs were investigated by varying the growth time during the growth process from 30 minutes to 5 hours. It was found that the growth solution has been changed from colourless to light blue and violet colour with increasing growth time, indicating the formation of GBNRs. The UV-Vis analysis shows two resonance plasmon peaks for t-SPR and l-SPR at 583 nm and 766 nm with the intensity of 1.433 a.u and 2.236 a.u at the optimum 5 hours growth time. For morphological analysis, it was found that the sample with lower growth time produced gold nanosphere shapes and with increasing time, more GBNRs with large aspect ratios were produced. HR-TEM characterization reveals that bone nanorods are formed due to the influence of Cu foreign metal ions, which cause selective deposition of Au atoms onto {111} facet of gold nanorods, while simultaneously reducing the overgrowth rate of the {110} facet for the edge regions and the {100} facet for the tip regions of the nanorods. In addition, the influence of Cu foreign metal ions on the growth mechanism of Au nanoseeds into nanorods and the shape transformation of nanorods into bone nanorods are also discussed in this work. In conclusion, the GBNRs have been successfully synthesized using SMGM by induced Cu as foreign metal ions.

The global increasing contamination of water resources with toxic metals such as copper (Cu), poses severe threats to human health and aqueous ecosystems. Therefore, the ultrafiltration mixed matrix membranes (UF MMMs) possess an applicable approach for the removal of copper ions. This novel fabricated technology can be applied in various wastewater treatment systems for the removal of heavy metals, especially copper. MMMs were fabricated by blending polysulfone (Psf) with additives into the dope solution via the phase inversion method by incorporating titanium dioxide (TiO2) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) in Psf MMMs. Seven Psf MMMs samples labelled M0 to M6, each with its own formulation, were prepared and tested for density, porosity, and degree of Cu retention. MMMs were further characterized via Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), which revealed the range of the IR spectrum of Psf polymer membrane from 1319 cm-1 to 1600 cm-1, 1650 cm-1 to 3400 cm-1 for PEG, and 800 cm-1 to 3600 cm-1 for TiO2 NPs. As for the scanning electron microscopy (SEM), M6 (Psf/TiO2/PEG 6000) was found to be the most dense and highest porous morphology asymmetric Psf MMM. The retained percentage of Cu and flux for M6 attained the highest value of 80.3% and 136.99 L/m2 .h respectively, whereas for the neat Psf membrane, M0 exhibited the lowest retained percentage of Cu and flux, about 25.8% and 61.64 L/m2.h. The inclusion of pore former and additives has shown an improvement of 54.5% in the copper rejection. Moreover, M6 displayed the highest antifouling properties compared to other Psf MMMSs. This study proves that PEG and TiO2 additives have significant potential to improve membrane performance due to the highest percentage of Cu retained on the surface of the membrane as adsorptive separation on Psf MMMs.
Follicular Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma: First Relapse and Beyond
Authors: Keating Mary-Margaret
Published: October 2024

Follicular lymphoma (FL) is the most common indolent subtype of non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL) and the second most common type of lymphoma overall. In Canada the age‑standardized incidence of FL is 38.3 cases per million individuals per year with mean age at diagnosis of 60 and similar incidence in men and women. Follicular lymphoma is treatable but not curable with systemic therapy yet it maintains a median overall survival (OS) of approximately 20 years. Historically, this long median survival has been maintained through periods of watchful waiting and subsequent treatment with chemoimmunotherapy when the disease burden becomes symptomatic. Serial relapses with progressively shorter remissions and more resistant disease is the usual natural history for FL. The management of relapsed FL remains controversial and the decision on next line of therapy is a rapidly evolving area, with the old standard repetition of chemoimmunotherapy being contested by new targeted therapies. There remains a challenge for Canadian patients to access these novel therapies outside of clinical trials and access programs. This review will present a treatment approach for relapsed FL taking into consideration Canadian funding patterns, in addition to reviewing the novel drugs with the highest level and most mature evidence to date.
Current and Emerging Treatment Options for HER2‑Positive Gastroesophageal Cancer
Authors: McLaughlin Ronan A. , Elimova Elena
Published: October 2024

Gastroesophageal cancer (GEC) is the fifth most common cancer and the second most common cause of cancer-related mortality, with 1.3 million annual deaths worldwide. The global incidence is increasing, particularly among younger patients. GEC can be classified into subtypes based on anatomic location, histology, molecular characteristics, or tumour biology and genomics. In approximately 20% of all GECs overexpression of HER2 is identified. The landscape of treatment options in this patient population is evolving rapidly. This review summarizes the progress of HER2-directed therapies for advanced disease and highlights future directions in targeting the disease.
The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) family of transmembrane tyrosine kinase receptors, EGFR/HER1, HER2/neu, HER3, and HER4, all have an extracellular ligand-binding domain, lipophilic transmembrane domain, and an intracellular domain with tyrosine kinase activity, binding to these receptors results in activation of downstream RAS/MAPK and PI3K/AKT pathways. In turn, this induces cell proliferation, differentiation, migration, and survival. The phase III Trastuzumab for Gastric Cancer (ToGA) trial reported the incidence of HER2-positive gastric cancer to be 22%. Therefore, targeting HER2 and its downstream signaling pathways holds important potential as a therapeutic strategy. Figure 1 illustrates potential targeting mechanisms that will be discussed in this review.
‘Ubuntu’ African Philosophy or ‘Ubuntu’ as a Philosophy for Africa
Authors: Ogo Ujomu Philip
Published: October 2024

This paper tries to develop a tenable philosophical idea of Ubuntu, that is, more specifically, a crystallized and sanitized African indigenous ethical perspective. Africa as an idea seems to be a “contested” concept in this contemporary post-colonial era due to the influx of different nuances, races, values, and beliefs that are in contention. Should this be a source of worry? So far, Ubuntu theory and practice in Africa seem to have become emotive, politicized, and not inclusive enough due to grandstanding about ownership, poor conceptual and theoretical articulation, as well as antagonism from other related foreign dominant worldviews that wish to become the development paradigm for most African social and political systems. This raises relational and dialogical issues about meaning from an African viewpoint. The search for an African endogenous paradigm for development is urgent given the real consequences of a (neo)colonial tendency that has threatened and disadvantaged the development of most countries due to its dominant paradigms of alienation, exploitation, and marginalization. These values have altered or affected African behaviour and thinking. This transformation of the African personality raises issues about agency. The underlying values of a development paradigm or philosophy of development for Africa require an ethical basis for human existence in political and social order. Generally, social order in most parts of Africa is beset by the problem of a negative dominant social paradigm (DSP) or core social values of hatred, intolerance, the abuse of human rights, dehumanization, exploitation, authoritarianism, poverty, and oppression. This often leads to tension, violent conflicts, and wars. So to build a viable and stable endogenous paradigm for development in most African sociopolitical environments, we attempt to use the main pillar of interconnectedness among human beings, which is central to Ubuntu as a humane and humanistic social system, to underscore some key moral and democratic values required for human liberation and transformation. The research question is: What concrete elements or values of Ubuntu can be useful as paradigms of endogenous African development? Specifically, our findings suggest that Ubuntu ethics is defined by a set of human values central among which are reciprocity, the common good, peaceful relations, an emphasis on human dignity and the value of human life, as well as consensus, tolerance, and mutual respect. Thus, the paper argues for the possibility of utilizing Ubuntu ethical correlates as materials for establishing stable and viable development worldwide and specifically in Africa.
