Authors: Oliveira Luiz Gustavo Silva Elisei de , Masoco Sarah Gava , Silva Isabella Avila , Bomfim Vitoria Vilas Boas da Silva
Published: October 2024

A cirurgia metabólica tem emergido como uma abordagem eficaz no tratamento do diabetes mellitus tipo 2 (DM2), particularmente em pacientes com obesidade. Este estudo apresenta uma revisão integrativa com o objetivo de avaliar o impacto dessa intervenção no controle do DM2, analisando os mecanismos metabólicos subjacentes, a eficácia na remissão da doença e os benefícios em longo prazo. Foram selecionados estudos publicados entre 2010 e 2023, utilizando bases de dados como PubMed, Scopus e LILACS. Os resultados demonstraram que a cirurgia metabólica, especialmente o bypass gástrico e a gastrectomia vertical, contribui significativamente para a melhora do controle glicêmico, com taxas elevadas de remissão do DM2. Além disso, os efeitos da cirurgia vão além da perda de peso, envolvendo alterações hormonais que melhoram a sensibilidade à insulina. Contudo, o acompanhamento a longo prazo é essencial para o manejo de possíveis complicações nutricionais e garantir a manutenção dos resultados. Este estudo reforça a relevância da cirurgia metabólica como uma intervenção viável e segura para o controle do DM2 em pacientes selecionados.

Kejahatan Profesi (profesional crime)adalah suatu jenis kejahatan kerah putih (whitecollar crime) yang dilakukan oleh orang yangmemiliki profesi tertentu, di mana kejahatannyadilakukan ketika sedang menjalankan tugasprofesinya dan/atau dia melakukan kejahatanyang ada hubungan dengan tugas profesinya itu.Kenyataan tersebut menunjukkan bahwawhite collar crime telah mengubah teori-teorikonvensional tentang sebab-sebab terjadinyakejahatan yaitu bahwa akar penyebab kejahatanselalu dihubungkan dengan kemiskinan, kondisimasyarakat serta perilaku perseorangan yg jugadikaitkan dengan kemiskinan. White collar crimelebih menekankan pada STATUS PELAKUNYA,di mana pelaku tersebut memilik posisi dan atauperan penting dalam institusi/organisasinyabahkan profesional dengan kompetensi spesifik.la tidak berada dalam kondisi yang miskin, dantidak kekurangan.Menurut IS Susanto, Kejahatan profesi(Profesional Crime) adalah kejahatan yangdilakukan oleh kalangan profesi (kaumprofesional) dalam melakukan pekerjaannyaseperti Dokter, Notaris, Pengacara, Akuntan danprofesi-profesi lain dengan kompetensi spesifik,yang memiliki ciri-ciri, antara lain:a.

About the Trustworthiness of Physics-Based Machine Learning – A Considerations for Geomechanical Applications
Authors: Degen Denise , Ziegler Moritz , Heidbach Oliver , Henk Andreas , Reiter Karsten , Wellmann Florian
Published: October 2024

Abstract. Model predictions are important to assess the subsurface state distributions (such as the stress), which are essential to, for instance, determine the location of potential nuclear waste disposal sites. Providing these predictions with quantified uncertainties often requires a large number of simulations, which is difficult due to the high CPU time needed. One possibility for addressing the computational burden is surrogate models. Purely data-driven approaches face challenges when operating in data-sparse application fields such as geomechanical modeling or by producing interpretable models. The latter aspect is critical for applications such as nuclear waste disposal, where it is essential to provide trustworthy predictions. To overcome the challenge of trustworthiness, we propose the usage of a novel hybrid machine learning method, namely the non-intrusive reduced basis method. This method resolves both of the above challenges while being orders of magnitude faster than classical finite element models. In the paper, we demonstrate the usage of the non-intrusive reduced basis method for 3-D geomechanical-numerical modeling with a comprehensive sensitivity assessment. The usage of these surrogate geomechanical models yields a speed-up of six orders of magnitude while maintaining global errors in the range of less than 0.01 %. Because of this enormous reduction in computation time, computational demanding methods such as global sensitivity analyses become feasible, which provide valuable information about the contribution of the various model parameters to stress variability. The consequences of these added benefits are demonstrated for a benchmark example and a simplified study for a siting region for a potential nuclear waste repository in Nördlich Lägern (Switzerland).

Abstract. This paper develops an actionable interdisciplinary model that quantifies and assesses uncertainties in water resource allocation under climate change. To achieve this objective, we develop an innovative socio-ecological grand ensemble that combines climate, hydrological, and microeconomic ensemble experiments with a widely used decision support system for water resource planning and management. Each system is populated with multiple models (multi-model), which we use to evaluate the impacts of multiple climate scenarios and policies (multi-scenario, multi-forcing) across systems so as to identify plausible futures where water management policies meet or miss their objectives and to explore potential tipping points. The application of the methods is exemplified by a study conducted in the Douro River basin (DRB), an agricultural basin located in central Spain. Our results show how marginal climate changes can trigger non-linear water allocation changes in the decision support systems (DSSs) and/or non-linear adaptive responses of irrigators to water shortages. For example, while some irrigators barely experience economic losses (average profit and employment fall by < 0.5 %) under mild water allocation reductions of 5 % or lower, profit and employment fall by up to 12 % (∼ 24 ×) when water allocation is reduced by 10 % or less (∼ 2×). This substantiates the relevance of informing the potential natural and socio-economic impacts of adaptation strategies and related uncertainties for identifying robust decisions.
Dynamic response of pile–slab retaining wall structure under rockfall impact
Authors: Zou Peng , Luo Gang , Bi Yuzhang , Xu Hanhua
Published: October 2024

Abstract. Pile–slab retaining walls, as innovative rockfall protection structures, have been extensively utilized in the western mountainous regions of China. With their characteristics of a small footprint, high interception height, and ease of construction, these structures demonstrate promising potential for application in mountainous regions worldwide, such as the Himalayas, Andes, and Alps. However, their dynamic response upon impact and impact resistance energy remain ambiguous due to the intricate composite nature of the structures. To elucidate this, an exhaustive dynamic analysis of a four-span pile–slab retaining wall with a cantilever section of 6 m under various impact scenarios was conducted utilizing the finite-element numerical simulation method. The rationality of the selected material constitutive models and the numerical algorithm was validated by reproducing two physical model tests. The simulation results reveal the following. (1) The lateral displacement of the pile at the ground surface and the concrete damage under the pile at the impact center are greater than those under the slab at the impact center, implying that the impact location has a significant influence on the stability of the structure. (2) There is a positive correlation between the response indexes (impact force, interaction force, lateral deformation of pile and slab, concrete damage) and the impact velocities. (3) The rockfall peak impact force, the ratio of the peak impact force to the peak interaction force, and lateral displacement of the pile at the ground surface had strong linear relationships with rockfall energy. (4) Relative to the bending moment, shear force, and damage degree, the lateral displacement of the pile at the ground surface is the first to reach its limit value. Taking the lateral displacement of the pile at the ground surface as the controlling factor, the estimated maximum impact energy that the pile–slab retaining wall can withstand is 905 kJ in this study when the structure top is taken as the impact point. In cases where the impact energy of falling rocks exceeds 905 kJ, it is recommended to optimize the mechanical properties of the cushion layer, improve the elastic modulus of concrete, increase the reinforcement ratio of longitudinal tension bars, enlarge the section size of piles at ground level, or add anchoring measures to enhance the bending resistance of the retaining structure.
Connecting Ocean Observations with Prediction
Authors: Le Traon Pierre-Yves , Novellino Antonio , Moore Andrew M.
Published: October 2024

Abstract. Ocean prediction relies on the integration between models, satellite and in-situ observations through data assimilation techniques. Satellites offer nowadays high-resolution observations of essential ocean variables at the surface, widely adopted in combination with precise but sparse in-situ measurements that, from the surface to the deep ocean, can constrain large scale variability in models. Moreover, observations are a valuable source of information for validating and assessing model products, for improving them and for developing the next generation of machine learning algorithms aimed at enhancing the accuracy and scope of ocean forecasts. The authors discuss the role of observations in operational ocean forecasting systems, describing the state-of-the-art of satellite and in-situ observing networks and defining the paths for addressing multi-scale monitoring and forecasting.
Multi-task Learning Long Short-term Memory Model to Emulate Wind Turbine Blade Dynamics
Authors: Baisthakur Shubham , Fitzgerald Breiffni
Published: October 2024

Abstract. The high computational costs in the dynamic analysis of wind turbines prohibit efficient design assessments and site-specific performance estimations. This study investigates the suitability of various dimensionality reduction techniques combined with a Long Short-term Memory (LSTM) algorithm to predict turbine responses, addressing computational challenges posed by high-dimensional inflow wind fields and complex time-stepping integration schemes. Feature selection criteria and a multi-stage modelling approach are implemented to arrive at a robust model configuration. Additionally, multi-task learning strategy is implemented which enables the LSTM model to predict multiple target variables simultaneously, eliminating the need for separate models for each target variable. Results demonstrate that this combined approach significantly reduces computational costs while maintaining consistent accuracy across all the target variables, thereby facilitating design feasibility studies and site-specific analyses of wind turbines.

Analysis of alternatives to the accelerating expansion of the Universe
Authors: Turaev S.J.
Published: October 2024

Observations from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) in recent years pose serious challenges to standard cosmology. Such a situation prompts to reconsider the models presented as alternatives to the Lambda-Cold Dark Matter (ΛCDM) model. In this work, a number of such models are considered, including models related to modifying gravity, models related to intrinsic luminosity of supernovae type Ia (SNe Ia), and models related to red shift. The accelerated expansion of the Universe is associated with the red shift of distant objects, and standard cosmology assumes that this red shift is caused by cosmological expansion. In this paper, we consider the alternative possibility that the red shift of distant objects may also be due to the phenomenon of red shift of light in the intergalactic and interstellar media.

Published: October 2024

line-water solutions was established and their dynamics were studied depending on the temperature of the solution and the concentration of γ-picoline in the solution. Analysis of the research results confirms the assumption of the microheterogeneous structure of aqueous solutions in the vicinity of a singular point on the phase diagram of the state in temperatureconcentration coordinates. The microheterogeneity of the structure of an aqueous solution of γ-picoline determines the maximum intensity of light scattering and the negative dispersion of the speed of sound in the hypersonic frequency range.

Imran Khan was the first prime minister in Pakistan who was removed from his office through a vote of no-confidence in April 2022. Before Imran Khan, such motions were initiated against Benazir Bhutto in 90s and Shaukat Aziz 2007, but the oppositions could not succeed. Both primary and secondary data have been consulted for identifying the factors which has been anaylzed through content analysis techniques. This manuscript attempts to explore and analyze the factors that contributed to the successful culmination of the vote of no-confidence against Imran Khan. We found that Imran Khan’s relations with the establishment, internal rift within the Pakistan Tehreek e Insaf, stubbornness towards his rivals, over-confidence and Khan’s policy towards Russia and America paved the way to the success of vote of no-confidence in April 2022.

Studying the interaction of proteins and genes by current computational methods is effective in new drug design. Considering the special role of lactoferrin (Lf) identifying its action mechanism is a new gate to the targeted treatment of some diseases. This study aimed to investigate the molecular interaction of Lf with virus spike, the bacterial cell binding receptor, and the proteins involved in apoptosis by in silico research. The docking results showed that the amino acids involved in the interaction between the spike virus of COVID-19 with the ACE2 receptor were similar to the amino acids in the interaction between the virus spike and Lf, and the binding between Lf and the viral spike was more inclined. The N-terminus of Lf interacted with the N-terminus region of the CD14, which contains the binding sites of bacterial lipopolysaccharide to the cell. Lf can compete for binding with bacterial lipopolysaccharides. The results related to the docking of TP53, BAX, and BAK1 gene promoters and Lf showed that Lf with one or more amino acids that are responsible for binding to DNA interacted with TP53 and BAX genes with higher binding affinity. In all protein and protein-gene interactions, the N-lobe region of Lf, which is its functional region, is involved in these interactions, and the anticancer, antibacterial, and antiviral, roles of Lf are related to this region. Lf is important as a medicinal supplement for treating COVID-19 and cancer.

Factors affecting learning activeness of students from the Faculty of Social Sciences Teacher Education, School of Education, Dong Thap University
Authors: Nguyen Thi Ngoc Ha
Published: October 2024

Students' activeness in learning plays an important role in comprehending the content of university teaching because the nature of university teaching is a unique cognitive activity of a research nature of students under the organization and instructions by teachers. Therefore, activeness in learning requires students to be proactive in assigned learning tasks, forming a sense of self-study and self-research during university studies and in professional activities in their future careers. Students' activeness in learning is the result of subjective and objective factors. This article presents the results of a survey of the current status of factors affecting the active learning of students at the Faculty of Social Sciences Teacher Education at Dong Thap University to serve as a basis for further research on methods of student education.
Vietnamese English-major students’ views and practices on English pronunciation
Authors: Do Minh Hung
Published: October 2024

English pronunciation competence is important in learning English as a foreign language. The present study aimed to provide insights into English-major students’ views and practices for this competence. To its end, the study investigated (1) relevant values of English pronunciation competence perceived by English-major students, (2) specific pronunciation errors they attend to for improvement, and (3) practices they undertake to improve this competence. For data collection, an interview survey was conducted among 16 students majoring in English from a university in Vietnam. The results reveal that all students endorsed the valued English pronunciation competence for their confidence in English communication and learning success as an English major in college. They also cited their common pronunciation errors (which stemmed from phonological discrepancies between English and Vietnamese and other relevant causes) and self-initiated practices for improvement; however, only a few students had developed effective self-improvement strategies. Accordingly, pedagogical implications are addressed and further studies are recommended to advance our understanding in this regard.

Authors: Tang Minh Dung , Vo Nhat Hao
Published: October 2024

This study embarks on enriching 11th-grade students' mathematical competencies, particularly in spatial geometry, through experiential learning. Specifically, the study focused on the practical concepts of perpendicular and parallel relationships in space. Following the qualitative approach, we collected and analyzed the data of the students' behaviors observed within a teaching scenario, which was specifically designed for them to apply their knowledge to the task "determining the classroom's center". The scenario involved three phases: defining the "classroom center," problem-solving in the classroom, and group presentations analyzing each other's methods. The results showed that all student groups successfully solved the task, which was implemented in a serious way using their mathematical understanding in a real-life context. Thus, students enhanced their two mathematical competencies, including mathematical problem handling competency (posing and solving mathematical problems) and mathematical communication competency (communicating in, with and about mathematics). This study underscores the effectiveness of practical and experiential activities in enhancing mathematical competencies among high school students, specifically within spatial geometry. It highlights the benefits of applying mathematical concepts to practical situations, promoting more profound understanding and student engagement.
ENVIRONMENTALLY ACCEPTABLE NORMS OF MAN-MADE LOADS ON IRRIGATED LANDS DURING WASTEWATER DISPOSAL
Authors: Otarbayev Bauyrzhan , Isayev Sabirjan , Khojasov Allamurat , Sultanova Nilufarxan , Muratova Rahima
Published: October 2024

Nature management in a broad sense is considered as a combination of various forms of exploitation of the natural resource potential of natural and natural-man-made systems and measures to preserve it. Its most important component is the preservation, reproduction and rational change of the ecological balance of natural systems. It is from these positions that it seems necessary to determine environmentally acceptable norms of man-made loads on irrigated lands during the disposal of wastewater, widely used in the practice of water supply and sanitation. The use of wastewater from industrial and municipal facilities for irrigation of land is of fundamental importance from both ecological and economic positions. From an ecological point of view, the use of wastewater for irrigation of agricultural crops, in the presence and creation of waste-free and safe technologies for their disposal in irrigation fields, can serve as the basis for rational nature management, since at the same time the ecological sustainability of landscapes is ensured, which in turn makes possible the long-term exploitation of natural resources without their pollution and degradation. From an economic point of view, by creating agricultural landscapes in unproductive lands, using wastewater from industrial and municipal facilities, it is possible to ensure the production of a certain amount of agricultural products, provided that the damage caused to the natural system (S) will be less than the profit (S).  Under these conditions, the object of wastewater disposal is the soil, which requires the need to determine a number of environmentally effective ways to optimize the soil-forming process, which would create, in an agroecological and economic sense, a perfect technology for their disposal, taking into account the laws of nature.

Скрябина». Материалом для исследований служил секционный материал- тазовые конечности (n=10), отобранные от свиней крупной белой породы, без внешних признаков патологий опорно-двигательного аппарата. Показано, что каждая ягодичная мышца свиньи имеет свои особенности, связанные с их анатомией и выполняемой функцией. На основании проведенных исследований нами внесены уточнения и дополнения в функциональную анатомию мышц тазовой конечности у свиньи крупной белой породы. Показаны топические особенности анатомических образований на тазовой (безымянной) и бедренной костях, например: «площадки краниальной и каудальной частей средней ягодичной мышцы», «шероховатости добавочной ягодичной и грушевидной мышц», зоны прикрепления мышц ягодичной группы на подвздошной и седалищной костях.

Among various zinc based nanoparticles, the zinc sulfide nanoparticles (ZnSNPs) have received immense attention and offer significant advances in the biomedical field due to their fundamental properties and indispensable benefits. Although, there are few reports which spotlight recent advances and progress regarding ZnSNPs, unfortunately, there is no systematic comprehensive review article that describes various biomedical applications of ZnSNPs. To this context, the present review article elucidates the recent advancement of ZnSNPs and their future theranostics applications (cancer therapy, antimicrobial activity, angiogenic therapy, biosensing and bioimaging) in the biomedical field. The present review article also gives an overview about
possible challenges and future perspectives of ZnSNPs in the area of biomedical science.
Atipicità dell’infezione da Mycoplasma: non sempre e non solo polmonite
Authors: Pedranzini Quincy , Gueli Alessandra , Dondi Elena
Published: October 2024

Here we describe extra-pulmonary involvement of paucisymptomatic pneumonia in an adolescent boy with Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection. Major signs and symptoms were related to cutaneous and mucosal involvement: sparse cutaneous lesions with glans excoriation, inability to tolerate food due to oral mucositis, conjunctivitis. The diagnosis was complex because this disease has clinical presentation similar to other diseases such as Drug Hypersensitivity Reactions (DHRs), erythema multiforme, toxic epidermal necrolysis, Steven-Johnson syndrome, which are disorders with a serious and sometimes fatal course. The aim of the article is to shed light on reactive infection mucocutaneous eruptions, and to present the diagnostic criteria that allow to identify the Mycoplasma-related form (which is still underestimated to date) in order to avoid inadequate treatments, given its generally good prognosis.

In the present research, the anti-inflammatory activity of gels with ethanolic extract of baccharis macrantha collected in the community of Llucud Alto, Chimborazo Province, Ecuador was evaluated. The maceration method was used to obtain the ethanolic extract, executing the phytochemical screening with it and determining the secondary metabolites that produced the anti-inflammatory property. Consequently, the concentrated extract was obtained through the lyophilizer, which was used for the preparation of the gels at 10%, 15%, and 18.75%, to which quality control was performed, determining physicochemical characteristics and microbiological control. The anti-inflammatory determination was evaluated by measuring the plantar edema induced with 0.5% carrageenan in 36 male mice, separated into 6 groups of 6 mice, where they were then treated with positive groups (1% diclofenac and 5.5% naproxen) and the prepared gels, making measurements every hour for 6 hours. For the statistical analysis, the ANOVA test of the Minitab program was used, in which a significant difference was identified among the 6 groups. Therefore, due to this difference, the Tukey test was used, resulting in the 18.75% gels and 5.5% naproxen having a difference with the other groups, having greater anti-inflammatory power. It is concluded that certain secondary metabolites of the leaves of baccharis macrantha are responsible for the anti-inflammatory property of the prepared gels, with the 18.75% gel having a high anti-inflammatory power.
