The elderly population in Malaysia was 6.6% in 2000, while the estimated number of elderly in 2025 increased to 13.4%. This figure will continue to grow by 20.8% by 2050. This increase requires healthier senior citizens to face the new millennium. The development of information and technology can improve the quality of life of older adults. Many technologies, such as health-based technology, can be used for older adults. Identifying the user experience (UX) components and effectiveness of older adults' health-based applications is essential to studying the effects of healthy ageing. This study was conducted to resolve questions and objectives regarding the importance of user experience for older adults and to identify the effectiveness of health-based applications. A research gap that needs to be studied is the evaluation of the improvement of guidelines for the provision of health application items for the sake of user experience. The case study method was used to explore the use of the health application developed named WESIHAT3.0. The WESIHAT3.0 mobile application is a prototype developed based on education and healthy eating for older adults. The research uses qualitative and quantitative methods, including user diaries, questionnaires and interviews. We used the user experience question (UEQ) to obtain feedback from the older adult's user experience component and the focused interview method in the case study. Respondents were selected from the Older Adults Activity Center (PAWE) in the Bandar Tun Razak area through a purposive sampling technique. The study's results found that the user experience component scale on the WESIHAT3.0 health prototype has an attractiveness value of 1.73, a pragmatic quality of 1.48, and a hedonic quality of 1.24. Improvements to the WESIHAT3.0 prototype have also been identified to add information on calories and nutritional intake by age.

Semantic Modeling of Ways to Verbalize Emotions
in the Political Discourse of Germany
Authors: Zorina Anastasia
Published: April 2024

The article deals with methods of verbalization of various emotions, considered on the material of authentic texts related to the political discourse of Germany.

There is a predominance of the emotional component over the rational one in modern political communication, therefore there is a need for a comprehensive study of the technique of nominating various emotional states. The purpose of the analysis is to identify the features of the semantic aspect of the linguistic representation of emotions

in German-language political texts.

This study is carried out using the method of semantic modelling according to five parameters reflecting the main types of syntagmatic relations between the meanings of words within one speech segment (a word combination or a sentence):

«signs of emotion», «activity of emotion», «manifestation of emotion», «carrier of emotion», «cause of emotion».

The following conclusions were obtained in the course of this study: the parameters «signs of emotion» and «activity of emotion» are the most productive within the framework of German political discourse; within the parameters mentioned

above, the phenomenon of metaphorization is noted, which can also be considered as one of the productive means of verbalization of emotions; according to the type of

evaluation sign, the predominance of negative emotions is observed in the political discourse of Germany.

The results of the research conducted in this article can be used in research and teaching activities related to the study of the features of the emotional aspect of

modern communication from a linguistic point of view.
The Assessment of the Danger of Pathogens of Zoonotic Viral Infections as Potential Agents of Pandemics
Authors: Sizikova T. E. , Lebedev V. N. , Borisevich S. V.
Published: April 2024

The transmission of pathogens from animals to humans is the cause of the appearance of the majority of newly  emerging diseases. The purpose of this review is to assess the danger of zoonotic pathogens of dangerous and especially  dangerous viral infectious diseases as potential agents of pandemics. Materials and methods. The paper presents an  analysis of data published in domestic and English-language scientific publications, as well as posted on the Internet.  The research method is analytical. The discussion of the results. At least 70 % of all emerging diseases have a zoonotic  reservoir. The exponential growth of human activity in previously undeveloped territories determines the increasing  influence of zoonotic pathogens. The infection of people with zoonotic pathogens occurs in direct and indirect contact  with infected animals and surfaces contaminated with their secretions, transmissible transmission through arthropod  bites, food transport through the consumption of contaminated food and drinking water. Two different transmission  models have been established among zoonoses from wild animals to man. One of these models assumes, that human  infection is a random event with a low probability, in the future, the pathogen is transmitted from person to person.  In the second model, direct or vector-mediated pathogen transfer from animal to human is a link in the natural cycle  of the pathogen. The risk of transmission of the virus from the zoonotic reservoir to humans is the highest in animal  species adapted to human habitats. Conclusions. The highest level of danger as a source of zoonotic diseases represent  primates, ungulates, carnivores and especially bats, which are natural reservoirs for a number of dangerous and  especially dangerous viral diseases. Representatives of families Poxviridae, Ortomyxoviridae and Coronaviridae have  already been caused pandemics, which caused enormous damage to all spheres of human activity. These pathogens can  be considered as the most likely agents of future pandemics.

Comparison of vacuum ultraviolet irradiation and oxygen plasma treatment as pretreatment for copper seed layer on cycloolefin polymer
Authors: Shimizu Akihiro , Fukada Kazuhiro , Endo Shinichi , Kambara Shinji
Published: April 2024

This study explores the factors governing the peel strength characteristics between a cycloolefin polymer (COP) film and a copper plating layer with a copper seed layer, for applying to antenna circuits in 6 G communications. The peel strength depended on the surface modification methods as pretreatment for copper seed layer formation: vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) irradiation and oxygen plasma treatment. VUV irradiation induced a modified layer with brittleness on the COP surface, leading to substrate failure. Conversely, oxygen plasma treatment formed a quite thin modified layer and facilitated Cu2O formation by bonding functional groups on the topmost COP surface with copper in the seed layer at the interface between the COP film and the copper plating layer, resulting in interface failure rather than substrate failure. Therefore, enhancing peel strength involves preventing the formation of a modified layer on the surface and generating a significant quantity of functional groups on the topmost surface.
Control of quality factor of atomic force microscopy cantilever by cavity optomechanical effect
Authors: Austin-Bingamon Noah , D. C. Binod , Miyahara Yoichi
Published: April 2024

The effective quality factor of the cantilever plays a fundamental role in dynamic mode atomic force microscopy. Here we present a technique to modify the quality factor of an atomic force microscopy cantilever within a Fabry–Perot optical interferometer. The experimental setup uses two separate laser sources to detect and excite the oscillation of the cantilever. While the intensity modulation of the excitation laser drives the oscillation of the cantilever, the average intensity can be used to modify the quality factor via optomechanical force without changing the fiber-cantilever cavity length. The technique enables users to optimize the quality factor for different types of measurements without influencing the deflection measurement sensitivity. An unexpected frequency shift was observed and modelled as temperature dependence of the cantilever’s Young’s modulus, which was validated using finite element simulation. The model was used to compensate for the thermal frequency shift. The simulation provided relations between optical power, temperature, and frequency shift.

Language Attitudes on English Informal Learner of Non-English Graduate through Lifespan
Authors: Amaliah Amaliah
Published: April 2024

Globalization has produced cutting-edge technology that allows people, especially young people, to access information anywhere. Blommaert calls globalization a historical keyword. Despite their similarities, the process of globalization is revolutionary in scope, complexity and dimensions. Over time, globalization can change locations, people, societies, cultures, economies, education, technology, and markets. Many generations consider English to be a universal language. This research is qualitative in nature. Creswell states that qualitative research investigates group intentions in social or human matters. Qualitative research evaluates participants' meaning in this way. Qualitative research uses specific methods to investigate social or human problems. Problem-oriented qualitative research collects data about primary object phenomena. Because it can store and replicate the most profound events and deal with complexity, moral relativism, and live animals, this research uses narrative inquiry. Narrative humanizes humans through the creation and restructuring of stories. Based on interviews and tables about language attitudes among casual English learners across the age range, respondents are very enthusiastic about the English skills learned on YouTube. Baker (quoted in Thuan) says that effective language learners develop a favorable attitude toward their language, which must be taken into account when defining language acquisition attitudes. Divita's lifelong theory helped her learn English. Since learning English, respondents have increased substantially, according to the time scale interview. When the respondent learned English on YouTube informally, he found many channels helpful. Language variation and evolution can be better understood with life span studies, and statistics show that respondents want to learn English. The problem of researching student attitudes by age is solved. The research found that respondents now enjoy their skills across a lifetime, spanning periods and life events. The author concludes that respondents prefer learning English informally. He enjoys learning English on YouTube, which he has used since childhood. This research should investigate respondents' local language skills before and after learning English and whether they prefer formal or informal English learning.
Strategy for Overcoming Population Growth Problems in Japan
Authors: Respatiadi Faisal , Jalaluddin Muzani , Munandar Aris
Published: April 2024

Japan is considered a developed country with an economy that is growing strongly from year to year. Even though Japan is currently a "developed" country, it does not mean that Japan is without problems. Currently, Japan's problem is the decline in the number of births in Japan. It's not new, but it's been around since 1975. The phenomenon of declining birth rates in Japan is known as shoushika. Shoushika phenomenon is a decline in the child population in Japan, this phenomenon is inseparable from the decline in birth rates and the rapid growth of the elderly population. Judging from the historical factors that after World War II, Japan built the country from adversity with the hard work of its people and made Japan a developed country. But the effect of its focus on development makes Japanese society individualistic. So it is not surprising that the Shoushika phenomenon emerged and turned Japan into a demographic crisis. Japan is experiencing a population decline due to a declining birth rate. In addition, the number of seniors (elderly) and older people over 65 is increasing. The phenomenon is predicted to continue in the future, the ratio of old to young is one in four.

Background: In Mali, Chloroquine has been abandoned in 2005 because of the high in vivo and in vitro resistance rate of Plasmodium falciparum to this molecule. Artemisinin-based combination therapies (ACT) are currently recommended to treat uncomplicated malaria. Few antimalarials are in development. Assessing the prevalence of known antimalarial drug resistance markers might help in designing new combination regimens. This study aims to measure the dynamics of molecular markers of chloroquine in Kolle before, during and after chloroquine withdrawal. Method: Dried blood spot samples collected from previous drug efficacy studies conducted in Kolle between 2001 and 2015 were selected and Pfcrt and Pfmdr genes were genotyped for SNPs conferring resistance to chloroquine. Results: A total of 652 samples were analyzed. The overall prevalences of the mutant alleles Pfcrt 76T and Pfmdr1 86Y were 72.9% and 20%, respectively. The yearly prevalence rate for both mutant alleles remained constant from 2001 to 2015 (p > 0.05). Conclusion: The prevalence of the Pfcrt mutant allele remained high from 2001 to 2015 in Mali, although the prevalence of the Pfmdr1 mutant allele was low.

Authors: Borovkov S. B. , Boiko V. S.
Published: April 2024

Metabolic syndrome and obesity in horses are closely related processes that are accompanied by chronic inflammation. Our research aimed to establish the normative indicators of acute phase inflammation proteins in obese horses. We conducted a study on twenty horses, ten of which were in the control group and ten were in the experimental group, showing signs of obesity. The Henneke scoring system was used to assess the body condition. This system ranks animals from one to nine, with one being exhausted and nine being very fat. Serum concentrations of circulating immune complexes, seromucoids, C-reactive protein, haptoglobin, total protein, and its fractions were determined. It was found that significant changes in protein metabolism occur in animals with obesity, namely: the content of circulating immune complexes, seromucoids, C-reactive protein, haptoglobin, and globulins significantly increase, indicating the development of inflammatory processes in horses due to obesity. The localization of these processes is associated both with obesity in animals and possibly with laminitis, the development of which is one of the pathogenetic links of metabolic syndrome

Enhancing User Experience through Emotion-Aware Interfaces: A Multimodal Approach
Authors: T Vijayakumar
Published: April 2024

The ability of a system or entity—such as an artificial intelligence system, computer program, or interface—to identify, comprehend, and react to human emotions is known as emotion awareness. In human-computer interaction, where the aim is to develop more intuitive and sympathetic systems that can comprehend and adjust to users' emotional states, this idea is especially pertinent. Improving user experience with emotion-aware interfaces is a multifaceted problem that calls for a multimodal strategy. Through the integration of several modalities, such as auditory, haptic, and visual feedback, interface designers may develop systems that not only react to user inputs but also identify and adjust based on the emotional states of users. The way users interact in the multimodal domain of emotion awareness will be explained in this research. Following that, a multimodal exploration of the user's experience with emotion awareness will take place.
