Published: March 2023

Commercial Babcock layer chicken, 60 to 70 week-old, in 3 flocks housed in Namakkal region of Tamil Nadu exhibited leg weakness and eggshell abnormalities mainly pronounced in apex region of the egg, suggestive of Mycoplasma synoviae infection. Choanal cleft and oropharyngeal swabs were collected from affected layer flocks in modified Frey's broth medium. Culture and polymerase chain reaction assay amplifying the conserved region of 16S rRNA gene was applied for the confirmation of M. synoviae. The isolates from culture were confirmed by specific amplification of 16S rRNA gene (207 base pair). The current report describe the first eggshell abnormality associated with Mycoplasma synoviae infection in India.

Authors: MUTIBVU TONDERAI , CHIMONYO MICHAEL , HALIMANI TINYIKO E
Published: March 2023

Meat and fat yield influence the profitability of modern commercial poultry production. This study sought to determine the effect of strain and sex on carcass and fat yield of three slow-growing chicken strains reared in open and closed pens. Two hundred and fifty-eight, 20-week old PK, OV and NN chickens, weighing 1710±308.8 g, were allocated to 4 paddocks of Chloris gayana and 4 pens in a poultry house. Final body weight (BW), carcass (CW), dressed (DW) weight, cut, abdominal fat pad (AFP) yield and giblet weights were determined. As a result of this study, strain did not affect BW but influenced back, pancreas, gizzard, neck, crop and AFP weight. Sex of bird influenced BW and males were significantly heavier, yielding heavier cuts and pancreases but lighter AFP than females. It was concluded that foraging males yield heavier cuts and females are fattier than foraging males of the same strain. Evaluating fatty acid composition of meat from foraging birds could help quantify risk associated with consumption of meat from foraging slow-growing chickens.
The Research Progress of Cone-Beam Breast Computed Tomography in Clinical Application
Authors: Wang Rui , Ouyang Zubin
Published: March 2023

Cone-beam breast computed tomography (CBBCT) is a specialized imaging modality for breast examination that can generate high-resolution three-dimensional images with 3D isotropic resolution. This method has high sensitivity and better displays breast cancer lesions and microcalcifications, especially in the dense breast. When combined with CBBCT plain and enhanced scans, the efficiency of diagnosis and treatment can be further improved. Enhanced CT scans provide a better display of the morphological characteristics of tumor lesions, surrounding tissues, and blood vessels, thereby providing more comprehensive diagnostic information. The imaging manifestations of breast cancer on CBBCT are closely related to the molecular subtypes and immunohistochemical receptor status of the tumor. By incorporating imaging characteristics, the molecular subtypes, and the status of immunohistochemical receptors of breast cancer, the diagnosis and evaluation of the disease can be predicted and assessed accurately. In recent years, CBBCT has shown great potential in the diagnosis and evaluation of breast cancer. This article provides a review of the operational characteristics of cone beam breast CT and the recent research progress in the diagnosis and evaluation of breast diseases.

Authors: Sfarti A.
Published: March 2023

In a recent paper published in the Annales de la Fondation Louis de Brogle. G.D’Abramo analyses several aspects of special relativity, including the well-known relativistic muon experiments. In the abstract, mr. D’Abramo states that: “We shall do that by providing a reanalysis of the so-called Andromeda paradox and by revisiting the standard explanation of the muon lifetime dilation given when this phenomenon is observed from muon’s perspective”. In the following note we will expose a basic misunderstanding in mr. D’Abramo when it comes to the explanations of the muon lifetime and to Andromeda paradox.
Risk Analysis from a Stakeholder First Perspective
Authors: Yuan Baoqi
Published: March 2023

The widely held belief that corporate executives should only prioritize shareholders’ interests is eroding. However, there are risks involved if directors of the business are asked to concentrate on broad objectives that serve the interests of all of the company’s stakeholders. Therefore, this paper focuses on the risks arising under the broad objective that company directors are required to focus on serving all stakeholders of the company, including the risk of litigation that may arise from the actions of company directors, the moral hazard of infringement of stakeholders’ interests and the creation of risks such as damage to the company’s interests, based primarily on section 172 of the Companies Act 2006 and the relevant provisions of the Insolvency Act 1986 Overall, therefore, the conclusions of this paper provide some insight into the risks arising from the view that all stakeholders are paramount.

O presente artigo busca por meio da análise de laudos periciais judiciais na seara trabalhista, no que concerne a matéria de saúde no trabalho, elucidar quais elementos têm conformado um laudo pericial em trabalho-saúde no campo do real. Buscou-se por meio da análise documental, verificar e analisar laudos periciais, o contexto de seus referidos processos, as sentenças e votos oriundos de recursos ordinários em 2ª instância, produzidos em decorrência das esferas judiciárias reunidos por geolocalidade. Em posse dos documentos necessários para a pesquisa, na etapa subsequente, procedeu-se na leitura, análise e formulação das categorias que foram formuladas a posteriori e não a priori. Após o estudo dos laudos selecionados, foram formuladas categorias visando elucidar os elementos dispostos nos documentos apresentados em juízo buscando uma padronização. Percebeu-se que justamente há a falta de uma estrutura e padronização pré-estabelecidas e que esses pouco, ou nada satisfazem as questões capitais demandadas pelo judiciário trabalhista, tais como, por exemplo, evidenciar (ou não) nexo (con)causal entre a patologia apresentada e a atividade laboral desenvolvida.

Published: March 2023

Aim: This case report represents the clinical management of a Skeletal Class II adult patient with gummy smile treated by Orthognathic surgery. 
Background: Vertical maxillary excess (VME) is the most common skeletal deformity in Skeletal Class II which is treated by Anterior Maxillary Osteotomy (AMO) and Gummy Smile is the characteristic feature of VME in which the anterior part of maxilla is superiorly repositioned. 
Case Description: A 19-year-old patient reported our clinic with the complaint of forwardly placed upper front teeth. On extra oral examination, she had convex profile with posterior divergence and interlabial gap of 10mm and everted upper lip. The patient had a gummy smile of 8mm. Intra orally, she had Class II canine relationship on both sides with missing irt 16, 36, 46. Cephalometric values showed Class II skeletal base with protrusive upper and lower incisors and acute nasolabial angle. Initially orthodontic treatment was done and extraction of upper first premolars was planned during surgery. AMO was done with superior impaction of 4mm and posteriorly by 6mm. After 4 weeks of post surgery, the settling of occlusion using intermaxillary elastics was done. At the end of the treatment, the patient had Class I canine relationship on both sides with Skeletal Class I and overjet and overbite was 2mm. The patient gummy smile was reduced to 4mm which was accepted by the patient. Fixed retention was given in both the arches. The total treatment time was around 30 months. 
Conclusion: The proper diagnosis and appropriate treatment planning is the main key to achieve stable results in Orthodontics. An interdisciplinary approach with the orthodontist and surgeon will lead to achieve stable, functional and esthetic results.

Authors: Velu Vengadeshwaran , Kunasegaran Pavitra , Ruben Shanmugam Nithiya
Published: March 2023

Nowadays, number of energy efficiency measures are being implemented in the smart home environment to conserve the energy consumption. This research attempts to design and develop a solution for an effective energy consumption in a smart home environment. The microcontroller system monitors the electrical energy consumption in real time and to ensure the power consumption is within the limit or predefined maximum demand value. Once the real time power consumption reaches the pre-set value prior to reaching its maximum demand, there will be an alarm triggered to warn the user that the power consumption is about to reach the predefined value. Once the power consumption exceeds the predefined maximum demand, the connected load will be automatically switched off sequentially one by one based on the pre-planned look up table. Results obtained through simulation and practical are presented in this paper. Recommendations are given for further enhancement of the proposed design for the smart home applications.

The repair and restoration stage in remanufacturing is one of the vital phases to ensure the remanufactured component is qualified during the testing stage. The reliability of the component can be evaluated at the very early stage of remanufacturing process, by adopting the FMEA method. The FMEA method is a tool that facilitate the evaluation of reliability of component related to potential failures and damages of the component. An automotive brake caliper is selected as a case exemplary in this study. The FMEA method will be used to confirm the applicability of DED process as one of the repair processes where not all type of failures or damages are suitable to be repaired through DED process. Therefore, this study presents the identification of potential damages or failures of brake caliper and further, analyse the reliability of the component and identify the possible corrective action can be taken. The study shows that the failure modes of a brake pad is irreparable cases that requires part replacement whilst for brake caliper housing shows as having some potential to be repaired using DED process. However, further investigation related to the strength of the component is required to support the FMEA results.

Published: March 2023

Security is essential in our daily lives, whether in a personal, home, business, or industrial setting. As a result, to ensure high security, a complicated surveillance system is required. This is typically not cost effective, necessitates more consumable electronic devices, requires more maintenance, and needs more storage space in settings. Hence, the goal of this research is to create a single, small, and simple IOT-based smart closed-circuit television (CCTV) control system. A low-cost smart security system can well be built using the Raspberry Pi microprocessor. The components involve are a camera, a sensor, and a Raspberry Pi board. The proposed smart surveillance system creates a comfortable and safe environment for households to initiate immediate recording of the surrounding upon triggering of sensors assemble at the specific entrance or exit points at home. Raspberry Pi microprocessor is used to be integrated with closed-circuit surveillance camera with motion detection, allowing smart automation of home surveillance system at a cost-effective manner. When the Raspberry Pi is connected to the Internet, the user may even remotely turn on or off the CCTV using the smartphone application. The system was tested with movement at the sensor from a range of distances based on the location setting. It can deliver the anticipated output such as alarm triggering, automated initiating recording of surrounding from the CCTV camera, sending an alert notification to the user's mobile phone, allowing monitoring of the location setting through the user's device, as well as turning off the CCTV camera through the user's device via the developed system.
A Simple Characterisation of Violacein Compound Derived from Chromobacterium sp. strain Dyh27s2016 and its Antimicrobial Activity Against Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Authors: Sandrasaigaran Pratheep , Abul Baseer Mohamed Jafran
Published: March 2023

Chromobacterium sp. strain Dyh27s2016 was isolated from the lake at Manipal International University. Its purple pigmented violacein is hypothesised for a broad spectrum of intriguing biological properties, specifically as an antibacterial agent against Gram-negative bacteria. Hence, the current study aimed to isolate, characterise, and review the antimicrobial property of violacein from the Dyh27s2016 strain against P. aeruginosa. The bacterial strain was cultured in nutrient broth with L-tryptophan (0.1 mg/ml); after 24 h, the bacteria were lysed with methanol (3:1 ratio) and mixed with ethyl acetate (4:1 ratio). The top layer was then separated to obtain a concentrated purple pigment. The pH was changed at varying ranges and measured with UV/Vis to characterize this pigment. Then the antimicrobial test was performed against P. aeruginosa using the microdilution method and gauged its minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC). Violacein pigment derived from Chromobacterium violacein was used as a control in all experiments. For the result, crude violacein from Chromobacterium sp. strain Dyh27s2016 was obtained, and the purple pigment in different pH was observed in varying colours; the compound was particularly decolourised at a highly alkaline solution. The pigment was also able to significantly inhibit the growth of P. aeruginosa from 200 µg/mL - 800 µg/mL. Tests show that this pigment has a maximum absorption of light wavelength at approximately 600 nm and antibiotic test results show that the pigment can be considered a potential antimicrobial drug against P. aeruginosa.

COVID-19 is the fifth pandemic to be documented since the 1918 flu pandemic. The virus spreads swiftly and evolves over time among humans because it is highly contagious. Since the virus is known to spread airborne, few of the most efficient ways to protect ourselves are by following social distance among individuals and to wear a face mask or shield at all times. These 2 conditions are not followed by some individuals even if the rules are set to be strict and it is impossible for the government to watch over everyone at all times. Companies and other sectors has to be allowed to operated even during the crisis due to economic factors. This is a risky situation for both the companies and the people. As a solution for this situation, a prototype is created to assist with social distance monitoring in public areas to reduce the risk of disease spread. The robot operates by using an Arduino MEGA, IR Sensors and Ultrasonic sensors. The robot comes with a robust and compact design to work in most places with the ability to follow a pre-determined path which gives it a tremendous market potential in all sorts of sectors that involves high number of employees or people.

Published: March 2023

Приведены результаты изучения реологических свойств крови у у 55 больных с риносинуситами после коронавирусной инфекции. У больных определялись следующие основные показатели: вязкость крови, коэффициент агрегации эритроцитов, степень деформируемости эритроцитов, средний объем одного эритроцита, гематокрит, фибриноген, морфологические свойства эритроцитов. У всех обследованных пациентов с риносинуситами после коронавирусной инфекции резко нарушаются реологические свойства крови. Тяжесть нарушений реологических свойств крови зависела не только от вида заболевания, а от его тяжести и степени интоксикации организма. Изменение вязкости крови обнаружено у всех обследованных пациентов. Показатели вязкости крови резко возрастали пропорционально тяжести и распространенности воспалительного процесса и выраженности деструктивных изменений в пораженных органах.

Количество публикаций увеличивается с каждым годом. В связи с этим возрастает необходимость информирования аудитории достижениями практической оториноларингологии Узбекистана. По плану администрации огромное значение придают по самоподготовке кадров с привлечением кафедральных работников. Перегородка носа представляет собой костно-хрящевую стенку, которая делит полость носа на две половины - правую и левую. Бессимптомное незначительное отклонение перегородки считается нормальным и встречается у большинства населения Республики. Искривление перегородки носа (ИПН) является одним из актуальных вопросов не только в оториноларингологии, но и во многих аспектах практической медицины, как детской стоматологии, педиатрии, терапии, неврологии и т.п. Об этом свидетельствует обширная литература, указывающая на изменение функций отдаленных органов и систем организма. Сообщаемые глобальные показатели распространенности (эпидемиологии) весьма различаются. Предыдущие системы классификации ИПН были предложены в соответствии с формами перегородки носа, рассматриваемой горизонтально и вертикально. У некоторых пациентов степень отклонения может влиять на носовой поток воздуха, вызывая обструкцию или нарушая обонятельную функцию. Головная боль, риносинусит, высокое кровяное давление, обструктивное апноэ во сне и шумы при дыхании также относятся к клиническим проявлениям искривления носовой перегородки. Для постановки диагноза достаточно клиническая (риноскопическая) картина, в то время как методы визуализации может быть необходимым для оформление медицинских документации. Радиологические методы визуализации, такие как компьютерная томография (МСКТ), используются для классификации и оценки характера искривления перегородки. Методом лечения искривления перегородки носа является хирургическая коррекция. Септопластика является наиболее распространенной оперативной коррекцией носа с высоким уровнем удовлетворенности и низким уровнем осложнений. В этом описательном обзоре мы представляем исчерпывающую информацию о концепции, клинической картине, диагностике, вариантах лечения и качестве жизни пациентов с искривленной перегородкой носа. Статья рассчитана на широкий круг оториноларингологов и других специальностей. Рекомендуются литературные Интернет источники со ссылками для самообучения.

Шартли-соғлом донорлар ва CРС билан касалланган беморлар орасида IL12В генининг генотиплари тарқалишида сезиларли фарқларнинг йўқлиги ва ноқулай полиморфизмнинг мавжудлиги, ўз-ўзидан ушбу касалликнинг ривожланиши учун ҳали етарли бўлмаслиги билан изоҳланиши мумкин. Генетик мойил шахсларда СПРС “генотип-фенотип” тизимидаги ўзаро таъсир схемасига мувофиқ ривожланади (генетик-экологик). Шу билан бирга, ноқулай генотипик вариантларнинг мавжудлиги касалликнинг клиник кечишига таъсир қилиши мумкин. Олган маълумотларимиз СПРС билан оғриган беморларда полипоз жараёнлар ривожланишининг генетик механизми мураккаблигини тасдиқлайди ва ўрганилаётган патологиянинг ривожланиши ва клиник босқичини таҳлил қилишда генларнинг мураккаб ўзаро таъсирини тушунишнинг зарурияти ва аҳамиятини кўрсатади. Ушбу полиморфизм генотипик вариантларининг тарқалишини таҳлил қилиб, биз IL12В генида A1188C rs3212227 полиморфизми C/C моногенотипининг полипоз жараёнлар ривожланиши билан боғлиқлиги мавжудлигини аниқладик.

Vanguardas artísticas latino-americanas: modernidade, utopia e desolação
Authors: Pereti Emerson
Published: March 2023

Neste artigo são tecidas algumas considerações sobre a incursão das vanguardas artísticas do início do século XX nos sistemas culturais latino-americanos. Por meio do diálogo crítico com autores como Ángel Rama, Jorge Schwartz, Antonio Candido, José Carlos Mariátegui, entre outros, o estudo enfoca, sobretudo, as relações entre colonialidade, representação literária e singularidade cultural para analisar algumas questões referentes aos diferentes projetos de construção simbólica de nação da época. Em meio ao rápido processo de modernização que a região atravessava, muitos vanguardistas latino-americanos, em contato com os ismos europeus, proclamaram a ideia do “novo”, muitas vezes à procura de expedientes estéticos e linguísticos que pudessem enfim descrever, concisamente, as ditas singularidades nacionais.  Essa espécie de utopia artística se deparou, por um lado, com a resistência de um regionalismo que, advindo do romantismo-costumbrismo, julgava-se mantenedor das tradições que expressavam essas próprias singularidades. Por outro lado, teve que enfrentar suas próprias contradições, ao encontrar-se, desolada, frente às agruras sociais e econômicas que também identificavam, precisamente, essas nações. Tais conflitos, exemplos de uma ambígua condição intelectual e artística, marcaram significativamente as literaturas latino-americanas, gerando, a sua vez, apuradas formas de interpretação e representação artística da cruenta realidade que têm, historicamente, compartilhado.

Automatic Repair of Java Programs with Mixed Granularity and Variable Mapping
Authors: Cao Heling , Cui Zhiying , Deng Miaolei , Chu Yonghe , Meng Yangxia
Published: March 2023

During the process of software repair, since the granularity of repair is too coarse and the way of fixing ingredient is too simple, the repair efficiency needs to be further improved. To resolve the problems, we propose a Mixed Granularity and Variable Mapping based automatic software Repair (MGVMRepair). We adopt random search algorithm as the framework of program evolution, and utilize the mapping relationship between variables as an auxiliary specification. Firstly, fault localization is used to locate the suspicious statements and to form a list of modification points. Secondly, the ingredient of program repair at statement level is obtained, and the mapping relationship of variables is established. Then, the test case prioritization is improved from the perspective of the modification point. Finally, a program passes all test cases or the program iteration terminates. The experimental results show that MGVMRepair has a higher repair success rate than GenProg, CapGen, SimFix, jKali, jMutRepair and SketchFix on Defects4J.
Generative Adversarial Networks for Video Summarization Based on Key-frame Selection
Authors: Hu Xiayun , Hu Xiaobin , Li Jingxian , You Kun
Published: March 2023

Video summarization based on generative adversarial networks (GANs) has been shown to easily produce more realistic results. However, most summary videos are composed of multiple key components. If the selection of some video frames changes during the training process, the information carried by these frames may not be reasonably reflected in the identification results. In this paper, we propose a video summarization method based on selecting keyframes over GANs. The novelty of the proposed method is the discriminator not only identifies the completeness of the video, but also takes into account the value judgment of the candidate keyframes, thus enabling the influence of keyframes on the result value. Given GANs are mainly designed to generate continuous real values, it is generally challenging to generate discrete symbol sequences during the summarization process directly. However, if the generated sample is based on discrete symbols, the slight guidance change of the discrimination network may be meaningless. To better use the advantages of GANs, the study also adopts the video summarization optimization method of GANs under a collaborative reinforcement learning strategy. Experimental results show the proposed method gets a significant summarization effect and character compared with the existing cutting-edge methods.
Neue Wege der Daseinsvorsorge: Digitalisierung der Lübecker Schulen durch die kommunalen Stadtwerke als Beitrag zu den UN-Nachhaltigkeitszielen
Authors: Steinert Farina , Scharfe Jenny , Meier Jens , Kleinert Kevin
Published: March 2023

Die Bereitstellung von öffentlichen Dienstleistungen im Rahmen der kommunalen Daseinsvorsorge befindet sich in einem weitreichenden Umbruch. Ausgelöst durch die Digitalisierung und hiermit einhergehenden gesellschaftlichen Wandel müssen neue Wege gefunden werden, ein zeitgemäßes Angebot von Daseinsvorsorge auch im digitalen Raum bereitzustellen. Am Beispiel der Digitalisierung der Lübecker Schulen durch die Stadtwerke Lübeck Gruppe belegen die Autor:innen, dass sich eine neue Säule moderner Daseinsvorsorge etablieren muss. Digitale Infrastruktur, Datenmanagement und die Vermittlung von Know-How im Umgang mit digitalen Medien sind elementare Bausteine einer hierfür notwendigen „Digitalen Daseinsvorsorge“. Dies zahlt auf mehrere Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) ein.
Was bedeutet es zu wohnen?
Authors: Hasse Jürgen
Published: March 2023

The way people live is neither a task, nor an action, nor a function. Rather, living expresses how people carry out their lives in places and spaces. One’s home in the broader sense (beyond ‘one's own four walls’) is the earth as a whole. In order for living to be successful on both a local and global scale, and for the earth not to become overly inhabited, people must live in a good way. But where extraction (from the resources of nature as well as the social sphere) breaks the principle of conservation, living becomes a matter of care for the habitability of the earth in the future. That is why today an ethical revision of all the ways and means in which people are on the earth is required.

Perspective Chapter: Spatio-Temporal Analysis of Urban Expansion
Authors: Tesema Bulti Dejene , Lemmi Eshete Anteneh
Published: March 2023

Understanding the effects of urbanization and formulating sustainable planning strategies begins with an analysis of the dynamics of urban growth at various spatial and temporal scales. Several quantitative methods for analyzing urban expansion and the spatial pattern of urbanized areas have been developed and their applications have been widespread. The choice of an appropriate method for a particular situation depends on different factors, making it difficult for users to make an informed decision and increasing the requirement for knowledge about the various approaches. This chapter gives an overview of the prevailing approaches for spatio-temporal analysis of urban expansion. Given the importance of analyzing the spatio-temporal growth of built-up areas for sustainable urbanization, this chapter provides a good insight into the main features of existing methods. Accordingly, it would help researchers and potential users to undertake effective analysis, balancing between their needs and resource requirements.
