Published: October 2023

The aim of this study was to use environmental sampling to determine the frequency of detection of selected equine respiratory viruses and bacteria in horses attending a multi-week equestrian show during the winter months. At four time points during showing, environmental sponge samples were collected from all stalls on the property and tested for the presence of equine herpesvirus-1 (EHV-1), EHV-2, EHV-4, equine influenza virus (EIV), equine rhinitis B virus (ERBV), Streptococcus equi ss. equi (S. equi), and S. equi ss. zooepidemicus (S. zooepidemicus) using real-time PCR (PCR). Environmental sponges were collected from all 53 barns by using one sponge for up to 10 stalls. Further, 2/53 barns were randomly selected for individual stall sampling in order to compare the results between individual and pooled stall samples. A total of 333/948 (35.13%, 95% CI 32.09–38.26%) pooled environmental stall sponges tested PCR-positive for at least one of the selected respiratory pathogens. Streptococcus zooepidemicus was the most commonly detected pathogen in pooled samples (28.69%, 95% CI 25.83–31.69%), followed by EHV-2 (14.45%, 95% CI 12.27–16.85%), EHV-4 (1.37%, 95% CI 0.73–2.33%), and a very small percentage of pooled stall sponges tested PCR-positive for EHV-1, ERBV, EIV, and S. equi. In individual samples, 171/464 (36.85%, 95% CI 32.45–41.42%) environmental stall sponges tested PCR-positive for at least one of the selected pathogens, following a similar frequency of pathogen detection as pooled samples. The detection frequency of true respiratory pathogens from environmental samples was higher during the winter months compared to previous studies performed during spring and summer, and this testing highlights that such pathogens circulate with greater frequency during the colder months of the year. The strategy of monitoring environmental stall samples for respiratory pathogens circumvents the often labor-intensive collection of respiratory secretions from healthy horses and allows for a more efficient assessment of pathogen buildup over time. However, environmental stall testing for respiratory pathogens should not replace proper biosecurity protocols, but it should instead be considered as an additional tool to monitor the silent circulation of respiratory pathogens in at-risk horses.

Background: Patients with autoimmune diseases (ADs) and primary immunodeficiencies (PIDs) are characterized by an increased risk of noninvasive and widespread infections as they are considered frail patients. In addition, many flares of the underlying disease are reported after routine vaccinations. To date, the vaccination rate in these two populations is suboptimal. According to the latest guidelines, targeted interventions are needed, such as strengthening the network of vaccination activities. Our project aimed to propose a pilot network for carrying out the recommended vaccinations in frail patients. Methods: The Allergy and Immunology Center of the Mauriziano Hospital in Turin, Italy started the “Maurivax” project, a facilitated pathway for frail patients to administer the recommended vaccinations in the setting of a dedicated structure where they could be properly followed up. Results: From June 2022 to February 2023, 49 patients underwent a vaccination consultation: 45 of them (91.8%) were subsequently vaccinated. Among these, 36 subjects (80%) were affected by an active AD and were already in treatment with immunosuppressive therapy or about to start it. Seven patients (15.5%) had a confirmed diagnosis of PID or showed a clinical presentation that was highly suggestive of that condition. Overall, twenty-seven patients (60%) showed a high-grade immunosuppression and six (13.3%) had a low-grade immunosuppression. No patients had a disease flare within 30 days from vaccination and no severe reactions after vaccination was observed. Conclusions: Adherence and vaccination safety at our immunology hospital vaccine clinic dedicated to patients with ADs and PIDs were high. We propose an effective model for managing vaccinations in frail patients in a specialist hospital setting.

The continuous production and widespread applications of synthetic plastics and their waste present immense environmental challenges and damage living systems. Microplastics (MPs) have become of great concern in various ecosystems due to their high stability and decomposition into smaller fragments such as nano-plastics (NPs). Nevertheless, MPs and NPs can be removed from the environment using several physical, chemical, and microbiological methods. This study presents a comprehensive narrative literature review, which aims to explore the various types of MPs and NPs, their sources, fate, toxicity, and impact on human health and environment. To achieve this aim, the study employed a comprehensive literature review methodology. In addition, it summarizes various methods of sample collection and analysis techniques. Remediation strategies for MPs and NPs removal are assessed and compared. Furthermore, it highlights interlinkages between the sustainable development goals (SDGs)—specifically SDG 14—and plastic pollution. Overall, priority for research and development in the field of MPs and NPs impacts on ecological ecosystems is a must as this will enable the development of scientific polices driven by global collaboration and governance which in turn will develop tools and methodologies that measure the impacts and risk of plastic pollution.
Artificial Intelligence Modelling to Support the Groundwater Chemistry-Dependent Selection of Groundwater Arsenic Remediation Approaches in Bangladesh

Published: October 2023

Groundwater arsenic (As) still poses a massive public health threat, especially in South Asia, including Bangladesh. The arsenic removal efficiency of various technologies may be strongly dependent on groundwater composition. Previously, others have reported that the molar ratio [Fe]−1.8[P][As], in particular, can usefully predict the potential efficiency of groundwater As removal by widespread sorption/co-precipitation-based remediation systems. Here, we innovatively extended the application of artificial intelligence (AI) machine learning models to predict the geospatial distribution of [Fe]−1.8[P][As] in Bangladesh groundwaters utilizing our analogous AI predictions for groundwater As, Fe, and P. A comparison between the predicted geospatial distribution of groundwater As and [Fe]−1.8[P][As] distinguished high groundwater As areas where (a) sorption/co-precipitation remediation technologies would have the potential to be highly effective in removing As without Fe amendment, as well as from those areas where (b) amendment with Fe (e.g., zero-valent Fe) would be required to promote efficient As removal. The 1 km2 scale of the prediction maps provided a 100-fold improvement in the granularity of previous district-scale non-AI models. AI approaches have the potential to contribute to informing the appropriate selection and amendment of appropriate groundwater contamination remediation strategies where their effectiveness depends on local groundwater chemistry.

Published: October 2023

River water quality is of utmost importance because the river is not only one of the key water resources but also a natural habitat serving its surrounding environment. In a bid to address whether it has a qualified quality, various analytics are required to be considered, but it is challenging to measure all of them frequently along a river reach. Therefore, estimating water quality index (WQI) incorporating several weighted analytics is a useful approach to assess water quality in rivers. This study explored applications of ten machine learning (ML) models to estimate WQI for the Southern Bug River, which is the second-longest river in Ukraine. The ML methods considered in this study include artificial neural networks (ANNs), Support Vector Regressor (SVR), Extreme Learning Machine, Decision Tree Regressor, random forest, AdaBoost (AB), Gradient Boosting Regressor, XGBoost Regressor (XGBR), Gaussian process (GP), and K-nearest neighbors (KNN). Each data measurement consists of nine analytics (NH4, BOD5, suspended solids, DO, NO3, NO2, SO4, PO4, Cl), while the quantity of data is more than 2700 data points. The results indicated that all ML models demonstrate satisfactory performance in predicting WQI. However, GP outperformed the other models, followed by XGBR, SVR, and KNN. Furthermore, ANN and AB demonstrated relatively weaker performance. Moreover, a reliability assessment conducted on both training and testing datasets also confirmed the results of the comparative analysis. Overall, the results enhance the assertion that ML models can sufficiently predict WQI, thereby enhancing water quality management.
NLRP3 INFLAMMASOME ACTIVATION IN MACROPHAGE (RAW 264.7) CELLS BY LIPOPOLISACCARIDE/NIGERICIN: REGULATORY EFFECT OF PSORALIDIN
Authors: SETENCİ Damla , YILDIRIM Merve Nur Sultan , CUMAOĞLU Ahmet
Published: October 2023

Psoralidin, a prenylated coumestan, has been reported its anti-inflammatory effect, but the regulatory effects on inflammasome activation and pyroptosis-related cytokines are not clear. The aim of this study was to investigate the regulatory role of psoralidin on inflammasome activation and expression of pyroptosis-related cytokines in Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)/Nigericin-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophages. Regulatory mechanism of psoralidin on inflammasome activation was evaluated using Western blotting for NLRP3, adaptor protein apoptosis-associated speckle-like protein (ASC)and Caspase-1. Pyroptosis-related cytokines were evaluated using RT-PCR for interleukin-1β (IL-1β)and interleukin-18 (IL18).Non-cytotoxic concentration of Psoralidin (5.0µM) significantly inhibited LPS/Nigericin induced inflamasome activation. In addition, pretreatment with psoralidin suppressed the LPS/Nigericin-induced production of IL-1β and IL18. Our results indicate that the regulatory effects of psoralidin on inflammasome activation and pyroptosis related cytokine production in RAW 264.7 macrophages are associated with suppression of NLRP3inflammasome activation and inhibition of the release of pyroptosis related cytokines.According to these results, Psoralidine may be considered as a potential therapeutic candidate for the prevention of inflammatory diseases or to support the treatment of inflammation.

Authors: Lopez Rojas Edgar Mauricio , Larrahondo  Núñez Alexander , Camero Berrones Rosa Gabriela , Ferrucho Pérez Anderson Fabian
Published: October 2023

Las pequeñas y medianas empresas, comúnmente llamadas pymes tienen la necesidad de contar con herramientas tecnológicas que apoyen la ciberseguridad en sus procesos brindando un grado de confianza a sus socios comerciales, los cuales las incluyen en su cadena de suministros como elementos claves en el desarrollo de sus productos y servicios. Entre algunos de los problemas que estas tienen, se puede mencionar la falta de conciencia en ciberseguridad, falta de presupuesto para realizar inversiones en tecnología y ciberseguridad, lo que las coloca en desventaja frente a las grandes multinacionales que asignan un buen porcentaje de presupuesto a tecnología y ciberseguridad. Es por eso que el uso de sistemas de detección de intrusos basados en código abierto implementados en dispositivos de bajo costo o de placa simple se convierte en una excelente alternativa tecnológica, con las mismas características, servicios y ventajas de un sistema de detección de intrusos comercial, reduciendo la desigualdad tecnológica que afecta el desarrollo comercial y económico de las pymes.

Capturing the Distance Learning in Indonesian Higher Education: Lecturers and Students’ Perspectives during Pandemic for Post-Pandemic
Authors: Gandhi Arfive , Gani Prati Hutari , Sardi Indra Lukmana
Published: October 2023

Since the pandemic, some universities can act swiftly to develop distance learning mechanisms, but others organize distance learning sporadically by allowing each lecturer to manage without standards. This research used a qualitative survey involving 66 students and 57 lecturers from various universities in Indonesia. It delivered dual perspectives between students and lecturers to improve previous research that did one perspective only. Most recognized the benefits of time and location flexibility when participating in distance learning but were dissatisfied with its implementation. During the pandemic, students were forced to explore independently by reading slides, listening to lecturers, watching videos, discussing in the online room, and doing independent assignments without any preparation. The pandemic also significantly changed the lecturers' teaching styles. They performed several variations in delivering material, increasing interaction in discussion forums, and evaluating the learning. Generally, distance learning without complete preparation since the pandemic was relatively good, as indicated by (1) lecturers' satisfaction with the course material delivery, (2) students' activeness according to the lecturer, and (3) learning outcomes achievement. These findings become insight for university stakeholders to enhance distance learning processes in the post-pandemic era since students and lecturers have felt its benefits but require many improvements.

Authors: Mohd Isa Mohd Hafez , Abdul Roni Uswatun Hasanah
Published: October 2023

The hazardous and mutagenic properties of dye effluents discharged into water bodies have led to the development of membrane separation for water treatment. pH-sensitive membranes have been widely employed as they exhibit remarkable improvements in the permeability and separation performance of polyethersulfone (PES) membranes. In this study, the PES membranes incorporated with polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), pluronic F108, and polyitaconic acid (PIA) by phase inversion were fabricated and characterized. PIA at different weight percentages were introduced into the PES dope solution via blending technique. The dye removal capacity, chemical composition, and thermal stability were characterized using UV-Vis spectrometer, fourier transform infrared (FTIR), and thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA) respectively. The fabricated membranes showed excellent rejection of reactive red 120 (RR120), which is an anionic dye. The study evaluated the membrane performance of pure water permeation (PWP) along with RR120 dye rejection. M20-PPI1, with a weight percentage of PVP/Pluronic F108/PIA; 3%/1.5%/0.25%, exhibited the highest water flux of 12 L/m2h and dye rejection of 82% at pH value of 2 for RR120 dye rejection. The findings propose that M20-PPI1 is an effective pH-sensitive membrane for dye rejection.

Authors: Ngo Jie Sheng , Ibrahim Badaruddin
Published: October 2023

Instructional leadership style refers to the practice of principal who pays attention to the teacher's teaching and student learning and always creates conditions and a conducive learning climate in the school to improve school achievement. Principal who practices an instructional leadership style will prioritize three main functions, namely activating the school's goals, managing the instructional program, and promoting the school climate. Various policies and programs created by the Ministry Education of Malaysia have made schools take various initiatives to improve their excellence. Instructional leadership style is an important practice in improving the quality of teaching and learning that can contribute to a high impact on school achievement. However, there is a lack of empirical studies on the principal’s instructional leadership style of primary schools in the state of Johor, especially in the Batu Pahat district. In relation to that, this study was conducted to see the level of primary school principal’s instructional leadership style in Batu Pahat district. This study uses a quantitative approach involving 403 Design and Technology teachers. The results of the study show that the practice level of primary school principal’s instructional leadership style is high (M=4.36, SP=0.40). Principal need to have skills and practice the function of instructional leadership style in managing schools to be in line with the Ministry of Education's desire to ensure that high-quality principal is placed in all schools (KPM, 2015).

Authors: Arifin Sufirman , Siew Nyet Moi
Published: October 2023

Instruments have been developed to measure entrepreneurial thinking. However, those instruments did not assess the commercial aspects of product marketing using digital technology. Consequently, the Entrepreneurial Creative Thinking Test (ECTT) was developed to assess the level of entrepreneurial creative thinking among Form Four high school students in STEM education. ECTT consists of five constructs derived from integrating the steps between the Socioscientific Issue Approach Model and the Design Thinking Process Model. The five constructs are Investigation, New Idea, Design, Create, and Commercial. The sample consisted of 187 Form Four students aged 15 to 16 years from four high schools in Sabah, Malaysia. The sample comprised 103 females (55.1%) and 84 males (44.9%). A survey research design was conducted to ascertain the extent to which the validity and reliability of this instrument can meet the psychometric characteristics of a research. The survey research design focused on the validity and reliability assessment of ten open-ended questions. This study utilised the Rasch Measurement Model to evaluate the validity and reliability of the ECTT instrument. Person fit, item fit, item polarity, unidimensionality, reliability, and item-person separation were analysed. The study's findings revealed that the ECTT instrument has good item reliability, with a score of .97. In conclusion, the ECTT is a valid and reliable instrument for assessing the level of entrepreneurial creative thinking among Form Four students in STEM education.

Throughout many years of teaching English at all university levels

and proof reading of so many theses and dissertations, the researchers feel

the Iraqi postgraduate students’ need for an extensive course in English.

This would help them get rid of many common errors they make when

writing English. Such a course should consider types and causes of the

errors made, and contribute in illuminating them. Besides experience, the

researchers have checked fifteen theses on Scientific specialization, and

the most common errors have been classified, described, and explained so

as both teachers and students may focus on them for the sake of a better

Published: October 2023

We all observe World Environment Day on June 5th every year. The issue of recycling cuts across many subjects. The entire process starts under the domain of agriculture. The real process involved comes under the domain of biotechnology. Once the product like a bio-decomposer is out, its use again comes under the umbrella of agriculture & horticulture. Consumption of the output falls under nutrition & its impact is felt in public health. To see the effectiveness of the process, the methods of research are adhered to. The article discusses the vagaries of the monsoon & discusses the importance of bio-decomposers to address these vagaries both at household & community level. The concept of kitchen garden, its cost effectiveness, process of formation of bio-decomposers and biotechnology involvement are described through the literature review mentioned in the article. The crux of the article is the case study of preparing a bio-decomposer, using the bio-decomposer for the plants or vegetables thus enriching them. Finally, the process of formation of soil by using the bio-decomposer on the used tea leaves & used flowers. On the top of it, using only dry cow dung & dry leaves as manures is the key.

Biliary Carcinoembryonic Antigen (CEA) Levels: The Role in Detection of Occult Hepatic Metastases in Colorectal Carcinoma
Authors: Şengezer Sunay , Aksoy Fikret
Published: October 2023

Objective: Colorectal carcinoma (CRC) is a major public health concern, often complicated by hepatic metastasis. Despite the widespread use of serum Carcinoembryonic Antigen (CEA) for postoperative monitoring, early detection of hepatic metastasis remains elusive. This study aims to evaluate the prognostic significance of CEA levels in both peripheral blood and gallbladder bile for predicting hepatic metastasis in CRC patients, and to explore its potential utility for personalized treatment regimens.
Materials and Methods: A prospective randomized study was conducted over three years, enrolling 31 participants, 21 of whom underwent curative operations for CRC. Preoperative and postoperative CEA levels were assessed with rigorous diagnostic imaging and histological examinations. Patients were stratified into groups based on liver metastasis, postoperative chemotherapy, and CEA levels in both blood and bile.
Results: A statistically significant difference was found in biliary CEA levels between patients with (mean = 129.22 ng/ml) and without intraoperative liver metastasis (mean = 33.16 ng/ml), p-value = 0.01. Serum and biliary CEA levels were robustly correlated, p > 0.05. Biliary CEA values differed significantly across Duke's stages, with particular significance between the control group and Duke's stage D (p < 0.001). Among patients without intraoperative liver metastasis but with biliary CEA >10 ng/ml, 80% developed liver metastasis postoperatively despite undergoing chemotherapy.
Conclusion: This research highlights the pivotal role of biliary CEA levels in diagnosing latent hepatic metastases in colorectal cancer. Demonstrating superior sensitivity compared to traditional serum tests, biliary CEA presents a potential shift in early detection. Elevated levels suggest expanded therapeutic options, from timely hepatectomies to adopting radiofrequency ablation and anti-CEA monoclonal antibodies, enhancing the likelihood of better patient outcomes. Essentially, these findings enhance our understanding of colorectal cancer, emphasizing the importance of personalized care, early diagnosis, and customized treatments, thereby directing us toward better patient outcomes.
Energy Devices in Thyroidectomy: A Safe and Effective Alternative to Conventional Methods
Authors: Onder Tolga , Altiok Merih
Published: October 2023

Objective: The most feared complications of thyroid surgery, which is one of the most performed operations of endocrine surgery, are hoarseness due to recurrent nerve damage and hematoma formation in the neck. With the advancement of technology, the use of energy devices has increased during thyroid operations. However, there are different opinions about using energy devices during thyroid operations. Our study aimed to examine the reliability of energy use in thyroid operations.
Material and Methods: The data of 144 patients who underwent thyroid surgery for various reasons were reviewed retrospectively. The patients were divided into 2 groups, those who used energy devices during the operation and those who were operated with the conventional method. Demographic data of the patients, duration of operation, complication rates were evaluated comparatively.
Result: The majority of patients were women. It was observed that the operation time was shorter, and the amount of bleeding was less in the group in which the energy device was used (p≤0.001). It was determined that the duration of hospital stay of the patients was significantly longer in the conventional surgery group (p≤0.001). There was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of incision lengths. Likewise, there was no difference between the two groups in terms of complication development frequency. Postoperative verbal pain score was significantly higher in the group operated on by conventional method (p≤0.001).
Conclusion: Energy devices can be used safely in thyroid surgery with less hospital stay, less postoperative pain levels, better bleeding control and complication rates similar to conventional surgery.
