Published: February 2023

Background: When scleral buckling is performed using a #240 encircling band anterior to the equator for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, buckle migration may occur anteriorly, eroding the rectus muscle. There are few cases of buckle migration occurring simultaneously with buckle infection. Notably, most previous reports included inadequate data on the pathophysiology of buckle migration and did not include the Hess test and perioperative images. Case presentation: A 36-year-old man with a history of atopic dermatitis underwent scleral buckling for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment of the left eye with #287 and #240 encircling bands at Kagoshima University Hospital. Four years later, he developed discharge, redness, and diplopia of the left eye. He was then referred to our hospital because buckle infection was suspected. The buckle was partially visible on the lower nasal side. Optical coherence tomography of the anterior chamber revealed the buckle to be on the nasal side and overlying the medial rectus muscle. Buckle migration and infection in the left eye was diagnosed, and early buckle removal was recommended. Two weeks later, on the day before surgery, conjunctival melting progressed in the nasal and inferior areas, and the buckle was exposed to a greater extent. In the surgical video at the initial surgery, the silicone band was confirmed to pass under the four rectus muscles, specifically the inferior and medial rectus muscles. At the beginning of the second surgery, we confirmed that the buckles were over the inferior and medial rectus muscles. As far as could be observed after buckle removal, the inferior and medial rectus muscles were not present at the normal location. Postoperatively, ocular pain and discharge quickly resolved. The subjective symptoms of diplopia also improved, and the postoperative Hess chart showed an improved ocular movement in the upward and lateral directions. Conclusions: Buckle migration is a rare postoperative complication of scleral buckling; however, patients at risk of buckle migration, such as those with encircling scleral buckle anterior to the eyeball, should be monitored with caution. If a buckle infection develops, buckle migration may occur within a short period, and early buckle removal should be considered.

Published: February 2023

Background and Objectives: Myopia is the most common refractive eye anomaly with a prevalence that is constantly increasing. High myopia is associated with numerous complications that can lead to permanent vision loss. It is believed that the basis of these complications lies in changes in the microvasculature of the retina caused by an increase in the longitudinal axis of the eye. Materials and Methods: Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) was used to analyze differences in macular zone vascular and perfusion density and foveal avascular zone (FAZ) parameters in myopic subjects. The following OCTA parameters were analyzed: the vessel and perfusion density of retinal blood vessels in the superficial plexus; the area, perimeter, and index of circularity of the foveal avascular zone (FAZ); and foveal and ganglion cell complex (GCC) thickness. Results: Subjects with low myopia did not show statistically significant differences compared to the control for any of the analyzed parameters. Groups with moderate and high myopia showed a significant decrease in vessel and perfusion density in the parafoveal and the entire 3 × 3 mm analyzed field. Foveal vessel and perfusion densities in the myopic groups were similar to those of the control regardless of the degree of myopia. The area and perimeter of the FAZ, as well as foveal and mean GCC thickness, did not differ significantly no matter the degree of myopia, while the index of circularity was lower in highly myopic subjects. The minimal thickness of the GCC was also lower in the high myopia group. Conclusions: High and moderate myopia led to a loss of blood vessels in the macular region. Perfusion and vascular densities were preserved in the foveal region and were not affected by different degrees of myopia. The FAZ was not significantly larger in myopic subjects, but its circularity was lower in subjects with high myopia.

Published: February 2023

Background: The remarkable properties of nickel oxide (NiO) and cerium oxide (CeO2) nanostructures have attracted considerable interest in these nanocomposites as potential electroactive materials for sensor construction. Methods: The mebeverine hydrochloride (MBHCl) content of commercial formulations was determined in this study using a unique factionalized CeO2/NiO-nanocomposite-coated membrane sensor. Results: Mebeverine-phosphotungstate (MB-PT) was prepared by adding phosphotungstic acid to mebeverine hydrochloride and mixing with a polymeric matrix (polyvinyl chloride, PVC) and plasticizing agent o-nitrophenyl octyl ether. The new suggested sensor showed an excellent linear detection range of the selected analyte at 1.0 × 10−8–1.0 × 10−2 mol L−1 with regression equation EmV = (−29.429 ± 0.2) log [MB] + 347.86. However, the unfunctionalized sensor MB–PT displayed less linearity at 1.0 × 10−5–1.0 × 10−2 mol L−1 drug solution with regression equation EmV = (−26.603 ± 0.5) log [MB] + 256.81. By considering a number of factors, the applicability and validity of the suggested potentiometric system were improved following the rules of analytical methodological requirements. Conclusion: The created potentiometric technique worked well for determining MB in bulk substance and in medical commercial samples.

Published: February 2023

Sol-gel graphene oxide-coated polyester fabric platforms were synthesized and used for the on-line sequential injection fabric disk sorptive extraction (SI-FDSE) of toxic (i.e., Cd(II), Cu(II) and Pb(II)) metals in different distilled spirit drinks prior to their determination by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry (ETAAS). The main parameters that could potentially influence the extraction efficiency of the automatic on-line column preconcentration system were optimized and the SI-FDSE-ETAAS method was validated. Under optimum conditions, enhancement factors of 38, 120 and 85 were achieved for Cd(II), Cu(II) and Pb(II), respectively. Method precision (in terms of relative standard deviation) was lower than 2.9% for all analytes. The limits of detection for Cd(II), Cu(II) and Pb(II) were 1.9, 7.1 and 17.3 ng L−1, respectively. As a proof of concept, the proposed protocol was employed for the monitoring of Cd(II), Cu(II), and Pb(II) in distilled spirit drinks of different types.

Published: February 2023

Undoubtedly, SARS-CoV-2 has caused an outbreak of pneumonia that evolved into a worldwide pandemic. The confusion of early symptoms of the SARS-CoV-2 infection with other respiratory virus infections made it very difficult to block its spread, leading to the expansion of the outbreak and an unreasonable demand for medical resource allocation. The traditional immunochromatographic test strip (ICTS) can detect one analyte with one sample. Herein, this study presents a novel strategy for the simultaneous rapid detection of FluB/SARS-CoV-2, including quantum dot fluorescent microspheres (QDFM) ICTS and a supporting device. The ICTS could be applied to realize simultaneous detection of FluB and SARS-CoV-2 with one test in a short time. A device supporting FluB/SARS-CoV-2 QDFM ICTS was designed and had the characteristics of being safe, portable, low-cost, relatively stable, and easy to use, ensuring the device could replace the immunofluorescence analyzer in cases where there is no need for quantification. This device does not need to be operated by professional and technical personnel and has commercial application potential.

van der Waals Dispersion Potential between Excited Chiral Molecules via the Coupling of Induced Dipoles
Authors: Salam A.
Published: February 2023

The retarded van der Waals dispersion potential between two excited chiral molecules was calculated using an approach, in which electric and magnetic dipole moments are induced in each particle by fluctuations in the vacuum electromagnetic field. An expectation value of the coupling of the moments at different centres to the dipolar interaction tensors was taken over excited matter states and the ground state radiation field, the former yielding excited molecular polarisabilities and susceptibilities, and the latter field–field spatial correlation functions. The dispersion potential term proportional to the mixed dipolar polarisability is discriminatory, dependent upon molecular handedness, and contains additional terms due to transitions that de-excite each species as well as the usual u-integral term over imaginary frequency, which applies to both upward and downward transitions. Excited state dispersion potentials of a comparable order of magnitude involving paramagnetic and diamagnetic couplings were also computed. Pros and cons of the method adopted are compared to other commonly used approaches.
Solid Phase Microextraction—A Promising Tool for Graft Quality Monitoring in Solid Organ Transplantation
Authors: Łuczykowski Kamil , Warmuzińska Natalia , Bojko Barbara
Published: February 2023

Solid organ transplantation is a life-saving intervention for patients suffering from end-stage organ failure. Although improvements in surgical techniques, standards of care, and immunosuppression have been observed over the last few decades, transplant centers have to face the problem of an insufficient number of organs for transplantation concerning the growing demand. An opportunity to increase the pool of organs intended for transplantation is the more frequent use of organs from extended criteria and the development of analytical methods allowing for a better assessment of the quality of organs to minimize the risk of post-transplant organ injury and rejection. Therefore, solid-phase microextraction (SPME) has been proposed in various studies as an effective tool for determining compounds of significance during graft function assessment or for the chemical profiling of grafts undergoing various preservation protocols. This review summarizes how SPME addresses the analytical challenges associated with different matrices utilized in the peri-transplant period and discusses its potential as a diagnostic tool in future work.

Published: February 2023

Abandoned anthropogenic sites are transformed when they come into use. In the present study, such objects were abandoned Evangelical cemeteries located in the Land of the Great Mazurian Lakes (northern Poland). This study aims to compare the concentrations of selected major (Ca, Na, Mg, Al, Fe) and potentially toxic elements (Zn, Cd, Pb) in the roots, leaves, and branches of Syringa vulgaris and buried necrosols and unburied soils in which this species grows. The soils analysed differ in their profile structure; in the case of burial necrosols, anthropogenic layers are present, while Brunic Arenosol has a natural horizon arrangement. Regarding pH, the soils analysed are characterised in the weakly acidic (6.6–6.8) to alkaline (7.2–8.6) range, both in KCl and H2O. Total phosphorus has high values in the humus and anthropogenic horizons, especially at coffin sites (Rudówka Mała: layer of Ccoffin—759 mg∙kg−1; Szymonka—844 mg∙kg−1). Necrosols are characterised by a slightly higher variation in major element content than soils outside the burial area. The highest elemental content in Syringa vulgaris is accumulated in leaves and roots. Potassium (K) has the highest content in the studied tissues, and cadmium (Cd) is the lowest. The study showed no significant differences in heavy metal accumulation for plants directly associated with necrosols and soils formed outside of burials, which is confirmed by analyses of environmental indicators. The study showed that plant chemistry is more influenced by the soil substrate and soil-forming process than the soil anthropogenisation associated with burials. There was no significant effect of burials on the chemical composition of individual parts of Syringa vulgaris.
The Impact of Gambling Culture on Entity Financialization
Authors: Fan Li , He Jie
Published: February 2023

Culture is an important factor that affects the investment behavior of enterprises, while gambling culture to a certain extent reflects people’s risk-taking spirit or speculative preferences. Taking Chinese A-share listed companies from 2008 to 2020 as a sample, we ran industry and year effect regressions to test the impact of gambling culture on corporate financialization from the perspective of speculative culture. Gambling culture is measured by regional per capita lottery consumption. The results show that a gambling culture plays a significant role in promoting the share of financial assets held by local enterprises. Economically speaking, every CNY 1000 increase in per capita lottery sales will lead to a 3% increase in the share of financial assets held by local enterprises. It is verified that a gambling culture affects corporate financial asset investment by enhancing management’s overconfidence level. In addition, by subdividing financial assets, we find that a gambling culture mainly increases holdings of profit-driven financial assets. Heterogeneity tests show that economic policy uncertainty, corporate performance pressure, and attribution of corporate property rights play a moderating role in the relationship between gambling culture and corporate financial asset investment. The conclusions of this paper help enrich the study of the economic consequences of gambling culture for micro-enterprises and broaden the understanding of financialization from a cultural perspective.

Published: February 2023

Monks cannot cook received raw meat dishes and should walk barefoot while working. This population lacks both a survey of parasitic infection and a proper prevention and control policy. Five hundred and fourteen monks from the Ubolratana, Ban Haet, and Ban Phai Districts of Kh on Kaen Province were enrolled in this study. A stool container and questionnaire were collected from each study participant. Stool samples were processed by formalin ethyl acetate concentration and agar plate culture techniques. We then analyzed the results and risk factors to demonstrate associations. The prevalence of overall parasites, liver flukes, and skin-penetrating helminths were 28.8%, 11.1%, and 19.3%, respectively. Raw fish dish offerings were associated with opisthorchiasis (ORcrude 3.32; 95% CI 1.53–7.20). The risk factors for skin-penetrating helminths were older age (ORcrude 5.02; 95% CI 2.2–11.17), being a long-term ordinate (ORcrude 3.28; 95% CI 1.15–9.34), smoking (ORcrude 2.03; 95% CI 1.23–3.36), and chronic kidney disease with other underlying disease (ORcrude 20.7; 95% CI 2.54–190.1). The protective factors for skin-penetrating helminths were secular education above primary education (ORcrude 0.41; 95% CI 0.25–0.65) and having received health education about parasitic infection (ORcrude 0.47; 95% CI 0.28–0.80). Wearing shoes at times other than alms work does not show a protective effect against skin-penetrating helminths (ORcrude 0.86; 95% CI 0.51–1.46). These findings support the recommendation for a strict Rule of Discipline regarding raw meat ingestion and allowing shoes to be worn for protection against skin-penetrating helminths in high-risk situations.

Published: February 2023

American foulbrood (AFB) is exclusively an infectious disease of honey bee larvae (Apis mellifera) and their subspecies that is spread easily and rapidly and is often present in apiaries. Due to the resistance and pathogenicity of the bacterial causative agent of the disease, which has considerable epizootiological and economic significance for beekeeping, AFB was classified as a highly dangerous, infectious animal disease by the World Organization for Animal Health (WOAH). Considering the severity of the infection, a frequent occurrence, rapid and easy spread, epizooty and enzooty are common. We tried to present an overview of the latest information related to AFB through several chapters. In addition to the latest data on the etiology of the causative agent, the most important elements of the clinical signs of the disease are also listed. Along with an overview of classic microbiological and the latest molecular methods of diagnosis, we also discuss AFB treatment from its differential diagnostic aspect. We hope that through demonstrating the mentioned preventive measures and measures of good beekeeping practice, the review will contribute to the preservation of the health of bees and therefore the overall biodiversity of the planet.
Locating Charging Infrastructure for Shared Autonomous Electric Vehicles and for Vehicle-to-Grid Strategy: A Systematic Review and Research Agenda from an Energy and Mobility Perspective
Authors: Van den bergh Ona , Weekx Simon , De Cauwer Cedric , Vanhaverbeke Lieselot
Published: February 2023

A shared autonomous electric vehicle (SAEV) fleet and the vehicle-to-grid (V2G) strategy both have great potential to reduce GHG emissions. As these concepts have complementary value, they are even more promising combined. However, to the best of our knowledge, no research has yet been conducted on locating charging infrastructure for SAEVs with V2G feasibility. For this construction, the challenge lies in the fact that both mobility demand (mainly for SAEVs) and energy (for any installation of charging infrastructure) have a major influence on this problem. To find the optimal charging infrastructure (CI) allocation for SAEVs with V2G operations, both mobility requirements and grid constraints must be considered. In this paper, we find that optimization models are the most frequently used method to solve the CI allocation problem. We conduct separate examinations of the V2G and SAEVs location optimization models that have been formulated in the literature, for which objective functions are used, and which constraints are considered (with respect to mobility and the electric grid). We find that SAEV and V2G models have overlapping elements, but remain disjunct in their respective perspectives. CI allocation for SAEVs mainly takes mobility into account, but tends to ignore grid constraints or impacts. On the other hand, CI allocation for V2G focuses on the distribution network and the grid, forgetting about mobility demand. To take advantage of the SAEV-V2G potential, future research should combine mobility and grid aspects to find the optimal CI locations for SAEVs with V2G feasibility.
An Energy Management Strategy for Hybrid Energy Storage System Based on Reinforcement Learning
Authors: Wang Yujie , Li Wenhuan , Liu Zeyan , Li Ling
Published: February 2023

Due to the continuous high traction power impact on the energy storage medium, it is easy to cause many safety risks during the driving process, such as triggering the aging mechanism, causing rapid deterioration of the battery performance during the driving process and even triggering thermal runaway. Hybrid energy storage is an effective way to solve this problem. The ultracapacitor is an energy storage device that has high power density, which can withstand high instantaneous currents and can be charged and discharged quickly. By combining batteries and ultracapacitors in a hybrid energy storage system, energy sources with different characteristics can be combined to take advantage of their respective strengths and increase the efficiency and lifetime of the system. The energy management strategy plays an important role in the performance of hybrid energy storage systems. Traditional optimization algorithms have difficulty improving the flexibility and practicality of applications. In this paper, an energy management strategy based on reinforcement learning is proposed. The results indicate that the proposed reinforcement method can effectively distribute the charging and discharging conditions of the power supply and maintain the SOC of the battery and, at the same time, meet the power demand of working conditions at the cost of less energy loss and effectively realize the goal of optimizing the overall efficiency and effective energy management strategy.

Published: February 2023

Physical activity (PA), sleep, and weight are important factors for youth health. However, data about these factors are unknown in youth living in isolated Alaska Native communities. This study aims to assess PA, sleep, height and weight in elementary through high school students living in Anaktuvuk Pass. Fourteen children (<12) and 24 youths (12–20) volunteered to participate in this study. PA and sleep data were collected with actigraphy. Height and weight were assessed with standard procedures. Demographics were collected via survey. Results show that 10.53% and 18.42% of participants were overweight and obese, respectively. Average bedtime was 00:15 am and wake time 08:23 am. Total sleep time was 498.21 min. Participants averaged 477.64 min in sedentary activity, 297.29 min in light activity, 150.66 min in moderate activity, and 18.05 min in vigorous activity. Adjusted models suggest that high school students engage in significantly more sedentary activity, and significantly less light, moderate, and vigorous activity compared to those in middle and elementary school. All students engaged in less moderate and vigorous activity on the weekend compared to the weekday. Data suggest that as children age they become more sedentary. Future studies should focus on increasing daily PA in high school students while considering other obesogenic factors.

Published: February 2023

This study aims to analyze the role of management ownership in moderating the effect of liquidity on firm value in Manufacturing Companies on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the 2017 – 2021 period. Using purposive sampling, 135 companies were selected as research samples. The data was processed by multiple regression analysis using help of the IBM SPSS Statistic 26 application. The results showed that liquidity had no significant positive effect on firm value. The results of testing the moderating variable indicate that management ownership does not moderate the effect of liquidity on firm value. The managerial implication is the existence of managerial policies that can be carried out by management in an effort to increase the value of the company. The level of liquidity ratio needs to be maintained in a safe position to ensure the company's ability to meet short-term obligations, but does not cause large amounts of idle funds.

In the last period, a sector that has seen an important development in fruit growing is the one dedicated to sea buckthorn crops, respectively the technologies for the valorisation of fruits and food by-products deriving from the technological processes dedicated to these fruits with high human and animal nutritional value. In this paper, the aim is to present the results obtained by implementing innovative technologies for the integrated management of works in agricultural farms, vineyards and orchards, particularly intended for the cultivation of sea buckthorn, through which were tracked the technological parameters achieved by an equipment for the separation of sea buckthorn seeds from the pulp of the fruit, respectively the distribution of the separation fractions from the raw material depending on the working regime (the rotation frequencies of the functional systems) and the sizes of the holes of the separation sieve as well as the energy indices of the equipment. From the analysis of the obtained results, it was concluded that, in order to increase the performance of the experimental equipment, the site sections must include a wider range of hole sizes, it should be equipped with a brush system for their cleaning and improve the box system for collecting the material separated on fractions in order to reduce losses.

Background: Turnover intention is the tendency of employees to leave the organization or resign voluntarily from their job. Several factors that might influence turnover intention are included job satisfaction, work environment, and compensation.
Aims: This study aimed to determine the Path Analysis of the effect of job satisfaction, compensation, and work environment on the turnover intention of nurses at Kotamobagu Regional General Hospitals.
Methods: A total of 34 nurses (total sampling method) contributed in this cross-sectional study. The model is presented with a single-directed arrow indicating cause and effect. The regression weights predicted by the model are compared with the correlation matrix from the observed data and then the goodness of fit is calculated. This study uses data analysis that is adapted to the research pattern and the variables studied. A causal model was employed, and to test the proposed hypothesis the SEM analytical technique (Structural Equation Modeling) was operated through the AMOS program.
Results: From the statistical analysis, the study shows a significant relationship between job satisfaction and turnover intention (p-value = 0.011), and between the compensation and the turnover intention (p-value = 0.026). However, we found that there was no relationship between work environment and turnover intention among the nurses at Kotamobagu Regional General Hospitals (p-value = 0.935).  
Conclusion: This study concluded that there is a correlation between work satisfaction and compensation on turnover intention (direct factor), but there was no correlation between work environment on turnover intention (mediator). It is suggested a need to arrange regular evaluation in terms of job satisfaction and compensation to prevent turnover among the nurses.

إنّ التعليم في القرن الحالي- الحادي والعشرين- يتوجه نحو توظيف التعليم المدرسي في مجالات الحياة، واستخدام التكنولوجيّا و العديد من الأهداف التي لا تعتمد على الحفظ والتلقين، بل تمتد وتتعمّق أكثر في عمليتي التعليم والتعلّم الفعّال القائم على نظريّات تعليميّة متجدّدة بما يتطلّب من المؤسّسات التعليميّة إعادة النظر في برامجها وتطويرها؛ كي تفي بحاجات الحياة العصريّة ومواكبة المتغيّرات العالميّة التي تستدعي إلى تطبيق تعليماً من نوع جديد في كل مراحل وأنواع التعليم.

ونتيجة للانفجار المعرفي المتسارع وتراكم المعارف لم يعد هدف العملية التعليميّة مقتصراً على إكساب التلاميذ المعارف والحقائق بل تعداه إلى تنمية قدراتهم على التفكير والتحليل والنقد والتعميم.

The Spanish is considered one of the most developed and renovated languages. Spanish language has gone through several stages since its separation from the mother language Latin until its current form. As the medieval Spanish was different of the Spanish that used in the Spanish golden epoch and this Spanish is different of current Spanish. These changes have included syntactical, morphological, phonetically, semantically and orthographical changes.

   One of the changes that have been happened in the Spanish language is the formal and informal forms of address. Through our research for these forms of address over eight centuries and in thirty-five literary works dispersed across these centuries, we found that the formal forms of address are the most changed. As from time to another new form appear and continue for a short period and then is replaced by another. Some of these forms have not been completely disappear, but, its derivation forms have been developed and survived until reached the current form, such as the formal form (usted formal you) where its roots attribute to the fifteenth century back. This form has taken many variations until it reached the current form that was used for the first time in the eighteenth century and still in use.

Published: February 2023

Background Inammation is considered to play an important role in the pathogenesis of
cerebrovascular disease. C-reactive protein (CRP) is a hallmark of acute inammatory response. There
are growing evidences that inammations are involved in atherosclerosis, plaque formation and ischemic event. There are
many studies showing that the levels of CRP (hsCRP) have been found to be raised in cerebral ischemia, but there are few
studies about the association of CRP level and intracerebral hemorrhage. This study was done to observe the levels of CRP (hsCRP) in patients with acute intracerebral hemorrage, and to assess the severity and outcome. Methods Study was conducted in
30 patients admitted in medical ward and medical ICU of LLR and associated hospitals, G.S.V.M. medical college Kanpur. All
patients of acute intra cerebral hemorrhage fullling the Inclusion and exclusion criteria were enrolled in the study. Serum CRP
(hs-CRP) was measured by Turbidimetric immunoassay. Statistical analysis was done by using T test and chi square test.
Results Maximum numbers of our patients were in the age group of 40-79 years with mean age of 64 years. Intra cerebral
hemorrhage was more prevalent in males. CRP level was found to be elevated statistically signicant in intra cerebral
hemorrhage patients as compared to controls. There was signicant rise from rst day to third day (P<0.05). Mean CRP level of
expired patients was elevated as compared to whole study group (P<0.05). Conclusions We concluded that higher C reactive
protein level may be associated with worse prognosis and poor outcome in intra cerebral hemorrhage patients and CRP level
can be an important factor of prognostic signicance in these patients.
