Published: February 2025

Background Ophthalmic solutions, including antibiotic eye drops, antiseptic eye drops, and preservative-containing artificial tears, are commonly used in clinical practice to treat ocular infections. However, the antimicrobial efficacy of these solutions against specific ocular pathogens remains unclear. Objective This study aimed to investigate the antimicrobial properties of various ophthalmic solutions against common ocular pathogens using in vitro experiments. Specifically, we evaluated the efficacy of antibiotic eye drops (Ciprofloxacin, Tobramycin), antiseptic eye drops (Povidone-iodine), and preservativecontaining artificial tears (Benzalkonium Chloride) against clinically relevant bacteria and fungi. Methods Standardized microbial suspensions of common ocular pathogens were prepared and inoculated onto agar plates. Sterile filter paper disks impregnated with the tested ophthalmic solutions were placed on agar plates and the zones of inhibition around the disks were measured after incubation. Results Povidone-iodine exhibited superior antimicrobial activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria as well as against fungal pathogens. Similar trends were observed for other tested pathogens. Post-hoc analysis revealed that povidoneiodine demonstrated significantly larger zones of inhibition than the other solutions (p < 0.05). Conclusion Our study provides valuable insights into the antimicrobial properties of ophthalmic solutions against common ocular pathogens. Povidone-iodine has emerged as a promising antimicrobial agent with superior efficacy against a wide range of ocular pathogens.

Impact of GLP-1 Receptor Agonists on Body Weight and Cardiovascular Outcomes: A Systematic Review
Authors: Mutairi Ahmed Al
Published: February 2025

The effects of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists on cardiovascular outcomes and body weight have garnered considerable clinical attention, especially in the context of addressing type 2 diabetes (T2D) and its related comorbidities. The purpose of this systematic review was to assess the safety and effectiveness of several GLP-1 receptor agonists in relation to weight loss and cardiovascular outcomes. Using a combination of keywords, MeSH terms, and Boolean operators, the search process was carried out in PubMed, Embase, Scopus, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and ClinicalTrials.gov. The GRADE (Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation) method was used to gauge the degree of certainty in the evidence, and the Cochrane’s RoB 2.0 tool was used to assess the risk of bias in the included studies. To reduce bias and mistakes, each paper was examined independently by two reviewers. The review comprised 21 studies in total. Weight, BMI, WC, SBP, TC, and TG were all considerably decreased by ligarglutide 3.0 mg in both obese/overweight people without T2D and those who had the disease. In a variety of groups, semaglutide 2.4 mg showed strong effectiveness in lowering weight, BMI, WC, SBP, and improving TG ratios. When paired with rigorous behavioural therapy, additional advantages were seen. Weight and metabolic indices were reduced in a dosedependent manner by tirzepatide. Liraglutide, semaglutide, albiglutide, dulaglutide, and efpeglenatide showed significant reductions in major adverse cardiovascular events, according to cardiovascular outcome-focused trials; lixisenatide and exenatide did not demonstrate significant cardiovascular benefits. Comparative investigations showed that exenatide QWS-AI provided better glycaemic control, while liraglutide and combination therapy significantly improved MetS-Z and android fat percentage. GLP-1 receptor agonists have often shown to have a major positive impact on improving metabolism, lowering cardiovascular risk, and losing weight. Behavioural treatments, the presence of T2D, and the particular GLP-1 agonist utilised all had an impact on the efficacy. These results provide credence to the use of GLP-1 receptor agonists as a helpful therapeutic option for patients with T2D and obesity who wish to manage their weight and cardiovascular health.

Recent advances in TMJ management
Authors: Srivastava Swastika , Ebenezer Vijay , Kannan M S , Devi M R Renuka
Published: February 2025

With three degrees of flexibility, the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is a synovial bi-condylar joint. It has been observed that temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMD) affects one-third of adults. Compared to men, females are more frequently impacted. While 75–80% of individuals with TMD require medical intervention and it can take up to three years for the full remission of symptoms, nearly 50% of patients with TMD do not require any treatment and the symptoms resolve on their own within a year of starting. TMD’s clinical manifestations include jaw clenching, clicking, and locking as well as occlusion brought on by bad posture. The diagnosis of temporomandibular disorder (DC/TMD) is based on axis I and axis II diagnoses, according to the 2014 diagnostic criteria for TMD. The purpose of this review is to give a general overview of TMD and look at the various treatment options. Numerous conservative treatment approaches, such as intra-articular injections, cognitive behavioural therapy, manual mobilisation, electrotherapy, dry needling, pharmaceutical treatment, physical therapy modalities, self-care strategies, dental treatment strategies, and surgical corrections, have been shown to be successful.

Gómez Hoyo, M.E. Agua, tierra y vida. Arquitectura tradicional urbana, condición de pueblo e identidad entre el Medio y el Alto Guadalquivir
Authors: González Oliva Irene
Published: February 2025

El libro Agua, tierra y vida. Arquitectura tradicional urbana, condición de pueblo e identidad entre el Medio y el Alto Guadalquivir, de la arquitecta María Esperanza Gómez Hoyo, surge a partir de una investigación sobre la arquitectura popular urbana de la provincia de Jaén. La obra está dividida en cinco capítulos y su objetivo principal es el de valorizar la arquitectura que queda opacada por “lo monumental”, pero que constituye un patrimonio a proteger porque refleja la evolución histórica y la identidad de sus habitantes. A lo largo del libro se plantean diferentes ideas que parten de la relación entre tres factores: el agua del río Guadalquivir, la tierra y la vida. A lo largo del estudio, se aborda cómo la identidad basada en la arquitectura popular se ha visto desdibujada en las ciudades medias andaluzas debido a la urbanización y la pérdida de estos elementos. A través de un sistemático trabajo de campo, la autora examina varios pueblos de la comarca de la Loma, con especial énfasis en Mengíbar, donde se analiza la tipología de la vivienda popular urbana. La reflexión final sobre las amenazas que enfrenta este patrimonio va acompañada de una propuesta para su protección y la inclusión en la categoría de “lugar de interés etnológico”. La investigación destaca la necesidad de conservar esta arquitectura como un reflejo de la historia y la identidad de las comunidades, proponiendo un enfoque integral para su preservación.

Alternative Retirement and Estate Planning Strategies since the Elimination of the Stretch IRA
Authors: Lawrence Shari , Merrell Stephanie , Chiasson Andrea
Published: February 2025

In 2019, US Congress passed the SECURE Act with the intent of helping taxpayers save for retirement. This Act included a change to the Internal Revenue Code Section 401, which eliminated the Stretch IRA by capping the number of years for distributions from inherited IRAs. The new regulations state that if the inherited IRA has a non-spouse beneficiary the distributions cannot exceed ten years, which drastically reduces the ability to use the IRA to transfer, and extend, wealth to one’s heirs while minimizing taxes.
This study examines the impact of the passage of IRC Section 401 on those actively planning to utilize a Stretch IRA for their retirement and estate planning. Specifically, alternative scenarios are presented as the authors compare the future value of IRA accounts under the old regulations to values under the new regulations. The results indicate that individuals wanting to their leave retirement accounts to heirs should consider converting accounts to a Roth IRA as Roth IRA conversion is the optimal outcome for multigenerational wealth transfer.

Comparison of Two Sharia Insurance Unit-Linked Products Through Tabarru Fund Simulation
Authors: Yuyun Eka Pratiwi  , Restu Ananda Putra  , Novriana Sumarti
Published: February 2025

The number of sharia insurance products has been steadily increasing over the past few decades. According to some research, this rise is expected to reach 15–20%. Tabarru funds, which are gathered funds intended to support one another without payment, should be included in the sharia insurance policy. This fund is supposedly gathered to cover the insured person's claim. Additionally, sharia insurance providers provide unit-linked sharia insurance, which was first made available by traditional insurance providers. This paper explains the operation of unit-linked sharia insurance. We examine this product that is offered by many companies. We develop a mathematical model to compute the unit-linked product's tabarru fund and simulate a few scenarios. The outcome shows that some ujrah (fees), such as these for acquisition, administration, risk management, investment management, and fund transfers, are deducted from the contribution that was paid. The simulations involving a subject who lives to be 99 years old and dies at specific ages reveal differences in the quantity of tabarru funds gathered from the products under observation. The tabarru funds collected in products A and B are IDR 110.040.000 and 9.072.000, respectively. This amount is not enough to cover the promised claims.

Authors:   HoltIS Association
Published: February 2025

The session "How to take a positive approach to children's behaviour" introduces approaches that differ from traditional methods of disciplining children. Discipline teaches children our values and rules and why they matter. One of the goals of discipline is to help children learn what they need to succeed in society. In the first part of this session, parents will explore methods for providing positive attention, encouraging positive behavior, and preventing unwanted behavior. The second part will focus on how to navigate moments when a child displays difficult behavior and the effects of physical punishment and penalties on a child's development. At the end of the session, the parental educator will ask parents to consult the List for Encouraging Positive Behavior in the Parent's Brochure. Before the next session, parents will be encouraged to practice Positive Encouragement Behavior at least once with each child, regardless of age, once with their partner and/or a colleague (if appropriate), and at least once with themselves.

This module is part of the materials dedicated to the training of parental educators.

Before the next session, parents will be encouraged to practice Positive Encouragement Behavior at least once with each child, regardless of age, once with their partner and/or a colleague (if appropriate), and at least once with themselves. This module is part of the materials dedicated to the training of parental educators.
Fluid-structure interaction analysis for abdominal aortic aneurysms: the role of multi-layered tissue architecture and intraluminal thrombus
Authors: Yue Xinhai , Huang Jiayi , Liu Ju
Published: February 2025

Introduction

Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a life-threatening disease marked by localized dilatations of the infrarenal aortic wall. While clinical guidelines often use the aneurysm diameter as an indicator for surgical intervention, this metric alone may not reliably predict rupture risks, underscoring the need for detailed biomechanical analyses to improve risk assessments.

Methods

We investigate the effects of the multi-layered tissue architecture and the intraluminal thrombus (ILT) on the wall stress distribution of AAA. Using fluid-structure interaction, we analyze the biomechanical responses of fusiform and saccular AAAs under three conditions: without ILT, with ILT but no tissue degradation, and with both ILT and tissue degradation.

Results

The findings show that the media is the primary load-bearing layer, and the multi-layered model yields a more accurate stress profile than the single-layered tissue model. The ILT substantially reduces overall stress levels in the covered tissue, although its impact on the location of peak stress varies across different scenarios. Media degradation increases the stress in the intima and adventitia, but the cushioning effect of ILT largely mitigates this impact.

Discussion

The results underscore the importance of incorporating the multi-layered tissue architecture and ILT in patient-specific analyses of AAA. These factors may improve the predictive capabilities of biomechanical assessments for rupture risk.

Introduction

The insurance industry has evolved into a global multi-billion-dollar sector, with health insurance gaining prominence due to escalating healthcare costs. This rapid expansion brings heightened risks, including data breaches, fraud, and difficulties in safeguarding sensitive policyholder information. Indonesia’s National Health Insurance (NHI)—one of the largest national insurance programs worldwide—covers over 200 million citizens, aiming to provide universal healthcare. However, this extensive coverage raises substantial concerns about data privacy and traceability, particularly during the claim process, as policyholders currently have limited control over and insight into how their data is accessed and used.

Methods

To address these challenges, we propose a blockchain-based model designed to enhance policyholders’ private control over data access and improve traceability throughout the NHI claim process. Our approach employs three complementary architectures—functional, logical, and physical—to guide system implementation. The functional architecture is illustrated via a use case diagram that outlines the roles and actions of each participant. The logical architecture employs Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN) diagrams to depict the revised process flow and data movement, while also incorporating a layered design concept. The physical data architecture provides a class diagram detailing data structures and actor relationships. A proof-of-concept prototype was developed to demonstrate the core functionalities of the new system.

Results

By integrating blockchain technology, our prototype ensures authorized access, bolsters data privacy, and maintains data integrity in the NHI claim workflow. The system’s layered design and use of smart contracts guarantee transparent, tamper-proof record-keeping, while parallelized processes in the logical architecture streamline claims handling. Initial tests of the prototype confirm the feasibility and robustness of the proposed solution, illustrating how blockchain can facilitate traceability and preserve confidentiality.

Discussion

The blockchain-based design addresses pressing concerns surrounding data security and accountability in large-scale health insurance systems. It allows policyholders to monitor and control their personal information, reducing the likelihood of unauthorized use. Furthermore, the transparent and immutable ledger enables stakeholders to verify data provenance and transactions, enhancing trust. Future work will focus on scalability, regulatory compliance, and integration with existing healthcare IT infrastructures to fully realize the benefits of blockchain in national health insurance programs.
Exploring advanced nanostructures and functional materials for efficient hydrogen storage: a theoretical investigation on mechanisms, adsorption process, and future directions
Authors: Jana Gourhari , Chattaraj Pratim Kumar
Published: February 2025

Hydrogen is a promising candidate for renewable energy storage and transportation due to its high energy density and zero carbon emissions. Its practical applications face challenges related to safe, efficient storage and release systems. This review article investigates advanced nanostructured materials for hydrogen storage, including metal acetylide and cyanide complexes, B,N-doped γ-graphyne nanotubes (γ-GNT), lithium-phosphide double helices, and Ni-decorated carbon-based clusters. Density Functional Theory (DFT) based computations are used to analyze binding energies, thermodynamic stability, and adsorption mechanisms. Ni-decorated C12N12 nanoclusters demonstrate enhanced storage capacities, binding up to eight H2 molecules with a favorable N-(μ-Ni)-N configuration. Lithium-phosphide double helices show potential for 9.6 wt% hydrogen storage within a stable, semiconducting framework. Functionalization of γ-GNT with OLi2 at boron-doped sites significantly enhances storage potential, achieving optimal hydrogen binding energies for practical applications. Additionally, metal acetylide and cyanide complexes, stabilized by noble gas insertion, display thermodynamically favorable hydrogen adsorption. These results highlight the potential of these functionalized nanostructures for achieving high-capacity, reversible hydrogen storage. The nanostructures in this study, such as γ-graphyne nanotubes (γ-GNT), lithium-phosphide double helices, metal acetylide and cyanide complexes, and Ni-decorated carbon-based clusters, are selected based on their ability to exhibit complementary hydrogen adsorption mechanisms, including physisorption and chemisorption. γ-GNT offers high surface area and tunable electronic properties, ideal for physisorption enhanced by heteroatom doping. Lithium-phosphide double helices facilitate Kubas-like chemisorption through unsaturated lithium centers. Metal acetylide and cyanide complexes stabilize hydrogen adsorption via charge transfer and conjugated frameworks, while Ni-decorated clusters combine polarization-induced physisorption. These materials represent a strategic approach to addressing the challenges of hydrogen storage through diverse and synergistic mechanisms. The review also addresses challenges and outlines future directions to advance hydrogen’s role as a sustainable fuel.
