Developing countries' industrial growth necessitates innovative machine foundation design and resilient infrastructure. Meanwhile, soil properties play a significant role in the satisfactory design of machine foundations. The paper presents an experimental work to determine accurately the damping ratio and shear modulus by equations. The paper studies the effect of different parameters (embedded depth of foundation, shape of footing, and changing operating frequency of machine) on the damping ratio and shear modulus of saturated clay soil. Moreover, mathematical expressions are derived from statistical analysis to predict the damping ratio for rectangular and circular footing on saturated clay. The physical model results reveal that the damping ratio inside the soil will be increased with an increase in the depth of the point inside the soil for all cases. The damping ratio tends to decrease with an increase in operating frequency. The maximum damping ratio has occurred below a rectangular foundation with a 16.6 Hz operating frequency in saturated clay. The damping ratio is a function of many factors, such as embedment depth, degree of saturation, shape of foundation, and operation frequency of the machine.

This paper aims to develop a fuzzy system to control the level and temperature of a fluid in a mixing tank by dynamically adjusting the flow rates of cold and hot liquids. The system involves a temperature and level loop, with the control variables being the rates of cold water and hot water flow, while also considering the outlet flow from the reservoir as a disruptive factor. The main goal of this control strategy is to maintain the liquid level and temperature within specified reference values. The system is a multivariable process that uses a fuzzy control system to develop a technique that, based on the state variables, can adapt the controller to achieve optimal control performance. In the development of this application, some linear controllers were tested, each implemented around specific regions within the phase plane. The designed controllers are then employed in conjunction with the fuzzy system to evaluate the system’s state variables. Therefore, an interpolation of these linear controllers is conducted, allowing for their application in a nonlinear system, with the aim of enhancing control performance near the boundaries between regions. The results show that the fuzzy approach is promising and provides convergence to the reference values of the liquid level and temperature in the mixing tank.

We propose the definition of quasi-n-normed spaces and prove some new results on fixed points theory related to weak contractions in this framework. We prove the existence and uniqueness of fixed point for (φ,ψ)-generalized weak contractions and (φ,ψ)-generalized weak C-contractions in quasi n-normed spaces. The obtained results extend some known theorems for nonlinear contractive functions on quasi n-normed spaces. In addition, we demonstrate an application of obtained results to Integral Equation.

The COVID-19 pandemic has radically altered the worldwide learning environments, setting the stage for Electronic Learning (E-Learning) advancement, where remote learning is facilitated through digital tools. The key stakeholders (professors, teaching assistants, and students) face bottlenecks as they shift to online education providing blended learning. New learning tools based on Natural Language Processing (NLP) are provided. Designing a chatbot is one of the solutions to deal with this issue. Chatbots are simple computer programs that attempt to simulate human conversation using Artificial Intelligence (AI) and NLP. They allow learners to have a standardized learning environment. In this paper, we have set up a chatbot application named Scientific Data Management BOT (SDMBOT) for handling E-Learning activities specifically for Scientific Data Management (SDM) courses based on AI and NLP techniques using Dialogflow Framework, a Google development platform for building NLP-based human-computer interface solutions. SDMBOT was trained on a dataset that was specifically created based on course content. The web or mobile app, via which our built chatbot is available, is used for student interaction. Students can ask the chatbot questions concerning SDM, and the chatbot will process the message and respond to the user by displaying the proper result. The accuracy of the SDM chatbot, which is calculated by using a confusion matrix indicated that our chatbot is 74 % accurate.

Environment and Food Security in sub-Saharan Africa
Authors:   University of Botswana, Darkoh Michael
Published: April 2024

The existence of key linkages between food security and environment is widely accepted even though the nature of this relationship is much contested. There are two opposing factions: those who see food security and environment as being essentially complementary and those who regard them as being in conflict [6]. The former stresses the interdependence between food security and a healthy natural resource base that promotes reinforcing practices. The latter stresses that the pursuit of food security entails inevitable costs to the environment. For example, the cost of using resources comes in the form of resource shortages, environmental deterioration and change. The reason many households in sub-Saharan Africa are food insecure is rooted in the ways entire livelihood systems have changed and adapted, or failed to adapt to challenges from the ecological and economic environment, including shocks such as drought and floods, and above all, climate change [7]. If food security is to be achieved in Africa, there is need at policy level to pay attention to these conflicts and complementarities.
Despite all the highs and lows around the world, our number one challenge is how to feed humanity with nutritious food!

We are now coming to learn that the biggest epidemic facing mankind is obesity. Obesity, same as undernutrition needs world attention, from political, policy, programmatic and research perspectives. Clearly, undernutrition has not received a focus that is commensurate with the scale of the problem. We have dealt with it only when it reaches crisis level and then we address it as an emergency. This kind of approach has a number of flaws which include the fact that many lives are lost unnecessarily and we also end up with survivors who are unable to function optimally in life.

Shall we be able to feed more than 9 billion people in 2050? Are we on course? We first heard Ambassador Kenneth Quinn, President of the World Food Prize Foundation, ask these questions during his visit to Jinja, Uganda to attend the Centennial celebrations of Dr. Norman Borlaug’s birth at the invitation of Sasakawa Africa Association (SAA). This was the same theme that resonated this October at the Borlaug Dialogue in Des Moines Iowa, the home of the World Food Prize, founded by Dr. Borlaug in 1986.
Why is agricultural research important? Why African Governments need to support it
Authors:   African Journal of Food, Agriculture, Nutrition and Development, Oniang'o Ruth
Published: April 2024

Surely without research and an enquiring mind, it is impossible to make much discovery. Many innovations come out of research, and an environment that allows free thinking, debates, enquiries of all sorts and all accompanied by requisite resources. Whether it is the Wright brothers with the aircraft or Thomas Edison with the ever enduring light bulb or Richard Branson with his Virgin Enterprises or Norman Borlaug with Asia's green revolution that saved billions from starvation, an enabling environment needs to be in place. If we do not support research in Africa we shall continue to blame those who do, for imposing ideas and innovations on us. Look at our food situation. We are the only part of the world which has yet to figure out how to feed its people, yet we are the fastest growing population globally.
Regardless of what agricultural research we do, nutrition is KEY

As we move on into 2015, some of us are wondering where the world is truly headed? Is the human race losing grip of world events? The security situation is dire and no one seems to have an answer, planes are falling from the skies with investigations not being able to right away pin point to the cause. Too many people are being killed with no recourse to their families. This is supposed to be a time of advanced technology, and availability of exceptional expertise. Yet, events continue to happen for which we have no answers. From my own corner of the world to far- off lands, human beings are committing heinous crimes, hitherto unheard of. I have always had great respect for certain institutions whose work is focused on ensuring there is adequate food for all of humanity. The CGIAR system, with its 15 centers undertakes great agricultural research work across the globe. Today I will mention just a handful. Let me mention upfront that more institutions in the private sector and the NGO community are doing commendable work and need to be uploaded. The time to address not just food quantity but also quality including nutrition is now. Anyone or any institution dealing with food in whatever capacity must think of quality and safety. Consumer awareness is growing on these issues and it therefore incumbent on these of us concerned to ensure we address their needs.

Does it make sense that in this 21st century, children and adults are starving and that families are going hungry? That nearly one billion people go to bed hungry every day? That right now in 2017, seventeen (17) million people, amongst them six million children, in the horn of Africa are facing serious hunger and food emergency? There are more millionaires and now billionaires in the world than at any other time in history. There is more money in circulation than ever before. Globalization was supposed to help, not to hurt. However, there appears to be more losers than winners and even world leaders who normally would pay attention to such basic but serious issues as hunger are pre-occupied by an ever changing political landscape and growing intolerance and insecurity.

Comparison of Polystemia Vera Patients Diagnosed Before and After the Updated Diagnostic Criteria
Authors: Katılmış Şevket , Gunduz Eren
Published: April 2024

Polycythemia vera is a chronic, clonal and progressive myeloproliferative disease characterized by leukocytosis, thrombocytosis and splenomegaly with increased erythroid series. In this study, we aimed to compare the clinical and laboratory features of patients diagnosed with PV according to the 2008 and 2016 WHO diagnostic criteria and the complications that developed during follow-up, and to retrospectively evaluate the impact of the change in diagnostic criteria on real life. A total of 100 polycythemia vera patients with positive JAK2-V617F mutation were enrolled in the study, 50 between 2011-2015 and 50 between 2016-2020. When the two groups were compared in terms of laboratory values at the time of diagnosis, hemoglobin, hematocrit and red blood cell count were significantly higher in the group diagnosed before 2016 (p=0.036). When patients were evaluated for complications of thrombosis, hemorrhage, progression to myelofibrosis, leukemic transformation, and transformation of myelodysplastic syndrome at last follow-up, it was found that 19 (38%) patients in the pre-2016 group and 5 (10%) patients in the post-2016 group developed complications (p=0.002). The number of patients who developed a myelofibrosis complication was significantly higher in the pre-2016 group (p=0.006). The number of patients who developed thrombosis was higher in the pre-2016 group, but the difference did not reach a statistically significant level (p=0.055). About other complications, there was no difference between the two groups (p > 0.05). In summary, our study found a significant difference only in the number of patients with myelofibrosis complications. Further studies with more patients will be needed to determine the impact of the 2016 change in diagnostic criteria on other complications.

Published: April 2024

Creative economy has become an integral part of the global economy today. In Indonesia, particularly in the city of Yogyakarta, the creative industry and economy are experiencing rapid growth, especially in the startup sector. However, many startup entrepreneurs face challenges in having their own offices and choose to work from places such as homes, cafes, or rented accommodations to develop their businesses. This is mainly due to the high cost of office rentals, long lease terms, and limited flexibility. In this context, Co-working Spaces are considered an ideal solution because they offer affordable rental costs and are accessible to various types of businesses. Furthermore, Co-working Spaces should provide a conducive environment for various activities in the digital creative economy, particularly in the context of startup business development. Therefore, there is a need to design a Co-working Space in Yogyakarta that offers a high level of spatial flexibility to facilitate collaboration and networking among industry players. The design incorporates the concept of spatial flexibility using the superimposition method, where architectural elements that form the space are separated and rearranged randomly to create three types of relationships: reciprocity, disregard, and contradiction. These three relationships are implemented to achieve optimal spatial flexibility and address the challenges in designing a Co-working Space in Yogyakarta.

International surveys indicate that the literacy rate of Indonesians is among the lowest compared to other countries. This is because there are not enough reading facilities and because of the developments in electronic technologies, which provide instantaneous convenience. By offering non-formal reading facilities that are both fun and informative, a literacy park is one way to increase reading awareness among the general public. The city of Banjarmasin itself already has several libraries, one of which is in Taman Kamboja. However, the existing library in Kamboja Park has some circumstances or problems, and also rarely visited by the public. This is due to the hidden or secluded location of the library within the park, as well as the single function or limited facilities the library has offered. So the design problem is formulated as follows: How is the design of the Banjarmasin Kamboja Literacy Park, which can be a recreational space to introduce reading activities to the people of Banjarmasin City? The aim of designing the Cambodian Reading Gardens is to create an educational and recreational concept for a reading facility. The concept of Fun Reading is used to solve problems using the Flexibility Architecture Method which is deemed appropriate for realizing the design concept.

Various regions in Indonesia have various types of creative economic activities, one of which is the City of Banjarbaru. Banjarbaru has a leading economic sector, namely the craft sub-sector, which consists of embroidery sasirangan and woven purun. However, the development of the craft sector in Banjarbaru has not been matched by adequate facilities. The Handicraft Center in Banjarbaru is a public open space facility that is used to develop and introduce the potential of crafts, especially in the embroidery sasirangan and woven purun to the wider community. The Handicraft Center is designed with the aim of accommodating selected craft activities and attracting the interest of the general public through an approach to the built natural environment that is friendly to the users of the space as well as to the environment. To optimize the environmentally friendly context, the biophilic method is applied with the concept of natural nuances that are adapted to the activities, conditions and needs that exist at the craft center.

Aim. To investigate the role of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs13041792, rs1801310, and rs6088660 in the GSS gene and environmental factors in the development of acute biliary pancreatitis (ABP) and its complications.

Materials and methods. The material for the study was blood samples obtained from 84 patients with ABP and 573 healthy individuals. Both groups were comparable in terms of gender and age. To diagnose ABP, we used the clinical guidelines recommended by the working group of the Russian Society of Surgeons. DNA was isolated by phenol / chloroform extraction. Multiplex genotyping of SNPs was performed by the iPLEX assay on the MALDITOF MassARRAY-4 genetic analyzer. Statistical data processing was performed using Statistica 10 and SNPStats software.

Results. We found that insufficient consumption of fresh vegetables and fruits increased the probability of ABP in carriers of genotypes G/A-A/A at rs1801310 in GSS (р = 0.02). The analysis revealed the association of the T allele at rs6088660 with the odds for developing acute pancreatitis (р = 0.007) and digestive fistulas (р = 0.02). A high probability of death was associated with rs1801310 (G/A genotype, р = 0.002) and rs6088660 (C/T genotype, р = 0.01) in the GSS gene.

Conclusion. SNPs rs6088660 and rs1801310 in the GSS gene can be used to predict the course of ABP.

Aim. To determine the role of 3D echocardiography parameters in the prognosis of long-term cardiovascular complications in patients with a first acute myocardial infarction (AMI).

Materials and methods. А prospective, single-center, observational study included 46 patients with a first AMI and successful PCI without a history of heart failure (HF) and shortness of breath upon admission. The examination of patients was performed in accordance with the Russian standards of medical care provision. Additionally, 3D echocardiography was performed, and N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) was determined. The main outcomes assessed were hospitalization with HF, sudden cardiac death, and combined endpoint. Median follow-up was 554 days (IQR 550–785).

Results. During the follow-up period, 9 hospitalizations with HF, 3 sudden cardiac deaths, and 12 combined endpoints were registered. The effect of 3D echocardiography parameters on the development of sudden cardiac death and combined endpoint has not been revealed. The effect of the studied parameters on the development of HF during the follow-up period that required hospitalization was evaluated. A statistically significant increase in the LV sphericity index was revealed in the group of patients with the registered outcome. We found significant direct correlations of left ventricular volume indices with prescription of diuretics in the post-discharge period; hospitalization with HF in the post-infarction period with the level of NT-pro-BNP, left atrial volume with the duration of index hospitalization, duration of eventless survival with ST elevation. We found a negative correlation of radial strain with prescription of diuretics in the post-discharge period. Predictors of hospitalization with HF in the post-infarction period were identified – parameters of radial strain, area strain, and circumferential strain, which were included in the model for calculating the risk of the outcome under study.

Conclusion. In patients with the first AMI in the absence of clinical signs of HF, to calculate the risk of hospitalization with HF within 550 days after MI, it is advisable to take into account the level of radial strain and use a prognostic model (1), including parameters of circumferential and area strain (according to 3D echocardiography data).

Background. Mortality associated with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) continues to be a crucial health problem worldwide. Correct assessment of CAP severity and the level of care is pivotal in the disease outcome.

Aim. To evaluate the prognostic value of the CURB-65 and CRB-65 scores and their modifications in determining the risk of in-hospital mortality in patients with CAP.

Materials and methods. The retrospective study included 1,412 patients with CAP aged over 18 years. In a population of 1,020 patients, which was subsequently split into test (n = 676) and training (n = 344) samples in the ratio 2 : 1, we compared the predictive value of the CURB-65 (confusion, urea > 7 mmol / l, respiratory rate ≥ 30 / min, low blood pressure (BP), and age ≥ 65 years) and CRB-65 (confusion, respiratory rate ≥ 30 / min, low blood pressure (BP), and age ≥ 65 years) scores in identifying patients at high risk of in-hospital death. The specified scoring systems were modified by changing the cut-offs for each criterion to increase their accuracy. For comparison, we used the ROC analysis with the calculation of the area under the curve (AUC).

Results. The modified CURB-65 score with new cut-off values (age > 72 years, respiratory rate > 21 / min, urea level > 9.5 mmol / l, systolic blood pressure ≤ 105 mm Hg, and diastolic blood pressure ≤ 65 mm Hg) was more accurate than the original one in predicting death and was named CURB-72. The AUC for CURB-72 and CURB-65 was 0.946 (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.916–0.967) and 0.905 (95% CI: 0.869–0.934), respectively (p = 0.0034). The modified CRB-65 (CRB-72) score also outperformed the original model, but showed no statistically significant difference. While comparing the modified scoring systems, the new CURB-72 score surpassed the CRB-72 score and demonstrated maximum accuracy in identifying CAP patients at risk of in-hospital mortality (p = 0.0347).

Conclusion. The modified CURB-65 (CURB-72) and CRB-65 (CRB-72) scores demonstrated potential for assessing the prognosis of CAP and are superior to classical scoring systems. CURB-72 showed the highest sensitivity and specificity.
