Published: March 2023

A violência autoprovocada consiste em um problema de saúde pública, devido a sua elevada incidência e prejuízos decorrentes. A notificação dessa conduta ocorre por meio do Sistema de Vigilância de Violências e Acidentes (VIVA), que integra o Sistema de Informação de Agravos de Notificação (SINAN). O objetivo deste estudo foi caracterizar os casos notificados no Brasil a partir dos registros do SINAN correspondentes ao período de 2009 a 2021. Análises descritivas revelaram o crescimento dos registros no Brasil, envolvendo, predominantemente, pessoas do sexo feminino, com idades entre 15 e 29 anos, de cor branca e ensino fundamental incompleto ou médio completo. As agressões ocorreram majoritariamente na própria residência e abarcaram mais de um episódio. Reforça-se a relevância de avaliar as características da violência autoprovocada, de modo a vislumbrar fatores de risco e de proteção associados ao fenômeno para o delineamento de ações e políticas públicas.
Long-distance transport of live animals: WOAH’s standards and best practices including societal perception and communication aspects
Authors: MORELLI D.
Published: March 2023

During the 88th General Session held virtually in May 2021, the World Organisation for Animal Health (WOAH: founded as OIE) Regional Commission for Europe agreed “Long-distance transport of live animals: WOAH’s standards and best practices including societal perception and communication aspects” as the Technical Item I to be presented during the 30th Conference of the Regional Commission in Catania (Italy), from 3 to 7 October 2022. An online questionnaire was designed and distributed to WOAH Members of the Regional Commission for Europe from 21 June to 8 July 2022 (with minor finalisations by 2 August 2022). The persons responsible for completing the questionnaire (of 47 Members in total) were mainly WOAH Delegates, National Focal Points for animal welfare or National Contact Points for long-distance transportation. The qualitative analysis of the information provided was carried out by grouping similar answers and, when proper, the United Nations geoscheme was applied to highlight any spatial clustering of the results. The wide majority of the Members (46 out of 47) declared to have in place specific legislation on animal welfare during transport, and most of them stated to be “generally aligned” with WOAH standards, there are still many countries in the Region where certain crucial requirements are not mandatory. Journey and contingency plans are commonly part of the specific legislation on animal welfare during transport, as well as monitoring and evaluation of the implementation of the legal requirements concerning animal transport by the Competent Authority or other certification bodies. The presence of major gaps in budget and/or available resources and trained personnel was declared by almost half of the responding Members (21 out of 47). Concerning the awareness of the civil society regarding animal welfare issues during transport, 11 Members reported a “low” level of awareness, and they were mostly included in the areas of Southern Europe, Western and Central Asia. The greatest part of Members responding “high awareness” clustered in the Northern and Western Europe geographical areas. Members were also asked to indicate possible WOAH initiatives that could improve the implementation of the standards, and most of them suggested to develop training activities and provide additional guidance through revised and/or new standards in the Terrestrial Animal Health Code and/or through other WOAH documents.
A Study on the Descriptive Strategies of Exile Diaries
Authors:   The Research Of The Korean Classic, Cho Su-mi
Published: March 2023

The Diary of a Man Who Followed Exile is a diary that records the experience of a father, grandfather, or teacher who is going to exile by a son, grandchild, or disciple. As can be guessed from the relational peculiarity of the exile and the accompanist, the exile and the accompanist are inevitably very closely connected emotionally. Therefore, the diary of the exile does not merely record the experience and the subconscious of the individual without any purpose and intention.
The ultimate goal of the diary is to claim the injustice of exile and to restore their damaged reputation. As a result of examining 〈Namhaengnok〉, 〈Bukcheonilrok〉, and 〈Changguekil〉, it was found that narrative strategies of direct explanation and indirect explanation were used to achieve such narrative goals. The descriptive method of direct clarification contributes to securing the basis for identity by providing diverse and rich information. Indirect explanation is not an objective basis, but it is a very intense and effective narrative strategy in that it provides a basis for sympathy that can convince innocent exile.
Through the process of examining what narrative strategies were used in the exile diary for identity, we can get clues to understand other exile diaries belonging to the same category, and furthermore, we can identify the universal emotions of human beings who are afraid of history.
A Study on the ‘describe regret in the poem with a hundred rhymes(百韻詩)’ by Lee Min-gu(李敏求), Dongju(東州)
Authors:   The Research Of The Korean Classic, Lee Yeon-soon
Published: March 2023

This paper aims to examine the background and characteristics of the poem of ‘describe regret in the poem with a hundred rhymes’ by Lee Min-gu, Dongju, and to give its significance of the literary history. This poem was written by Dongju in the 17th century in Yongbyon, a place of exile. In particular, This poem tells us that Dongju was influenced by Doo-bo(杜甫) poetry during the exile period. And in the middle of the Joseon Dynasty, many works that borrowed a poem of Doo-bo’s the poem with a hundred rhymes were gradually produced and developed. This poem draws attention in literary history because it was built during such a period.
As a result, the following could be found as characteristics of the poem with a hundred rhymes by Dongju. At the beginning of the poem, Dongju started magnificently by focusing on his family and life with the prosperity of the Joseon Dynasty. Subsequently, he recalled the Manchu war of 1636, described the battlefield, and expressed his feelings in exile through quotes from the Chinese literature of 辭賦. However, Dong-ju showed the process of mentally recovering through his daily life. The poem with a hundred rhymes of Dongju is different from the poem with a hundred rhymes of the mid-Joseon Dynasty. After that, it influenced the construction of Baegunmansi(百韻輓詩) by Namin(南人) writers in the late Joseon Dynasty. And as a poem built in exile, it was able to reveal its significance in that it was differentiated while continuing its genealogy.
A Study on ‘Maternity’ Appeared in 〈HeoUngaegibonpuri〉: Focusing on Kang Eul-saeng Simbang’s Version
Authors:   The Research Of The Korean Classic, Lee So-yun
Published: March 2023

Recorded as a folk song, 〈HeoUngaegibonpuri〉 reveals the appearance of a ‘daughter’ who is shunned by her parents in front of death. On the other hand, 〈HeoUngaegibonpuri〉, which was recorded as a folktale, highlights the image of a ‘mother’ who is in charge of both labor and childrearing. In particular, in folktales, HeoUngaegi’s motherhood is encouraged and demanded by King Yeomra and the village grandmother or mother-in-law. Bonpuri is also similar, but the narration is more complicated in that Kang Eulsaeng’s version depicts HeoUngaegi’s identity vaguely. This is because HeoUngaegi, Kongjwi’s stepmother at first, becomes Kongjwi herself in the end. This shows Simbang’s ambitious intention to illustrate the two extremes of motherhood by contrasting Kongjwi’s stepmother HeoUngaegi with Kongjwi’s HeoUngaegi. The problem is that the intention of such Simbang fails. Due to the structure of the narrative, HeoUngaegi has no choice but to leave this world. Therefore, the mother’s place is left blank. Instead, the mother-in-law, who protects the patriarchy, takes the place. The mother-in-law’s act of actively expelling HeoUngaegi in Kang Eulsaeng’s version implies that motherhood becomes a kind of power in a patriarchal society. In other words, motherhood is surrounded by interests. What is important is why 〈HeoUngaegibonpuri〉 was handed down in the ritual, and why the transmission context was cut off today. 〈HeoUngaegibonpuri〉 depicts the death of a woman, that is, the death of a mother. The story of Kongjwi Patjwi, inserted in Kang Eulsaeng’s version, shows that the myth focuses more on “mother’s death” than anything else. Regardless of genre, most of the speakers in 〈HeoUngaegibonpuri〉 are women because women sympathized with the death of such a mother. However, the reason why the ritual transmission of 〈HeoUngaegibonpuri〉 has disappeared is that the reality depicted by the narrative can no longer be accepted. Now ‘motherhood’ is not something that must be adhered to beyond the limits of death. The existence of 〈HeoUngaegibonpuri〉, where the transmission of rituals has been cut off, shows the changed reality of today.

Authors: ORHAN Mustafa , KAYA Mehmet Veysi , SAYAR Burak
Published: March 2023

Objective: Alcohol consumption at an early age has many adverse effects on people’s health and others around them. This paper aims to reveal the level of alcohol consumption habits of students in Turkey and the effects of alcohol use through the Systematic Review.

Methods: Studies on alcohol use among students, using the PRISMA systematic review method, will be combinations of the keywords Alcohol, Student, Turkey and/or Addiction in Web of Science, Scopus, PubMed, Science Direct and TR Index databases between 7 December 2020 and 10 January 2021 were searched in the abstract, keyword and study name.

Results: As a result of the search, 402 studies were found initially. As a result of the repetitive studies and the examination of the titles and abstracts, 224 articles, the full text of which was reached, were examined in detail. As a result of the full text review, 212 articles were exam ined according to the inclusion criteria. According to the determined criteria, 85 articles were reached. In Turkey, where cultural diversity is rich, alcohol consumption has also been affect ed by this diversity and has led to differences in the frequency of consumption (4.4%-91.4%). In addition to the difference in the frequency of alcohol consumption, the effects of alcohol consumption among students were also quite high.

Conclusion: Physical, mental, and social impacts significantly affected the living conditions of people and people around them. It would be wrong to give the general status of alcohol consumption frequency in Turkey with a value through this systematic review study. With the effects of various factors, alcohol consumption and its impacts on health varied considerably, revealing that it is necessary to evaluate in smaller groups.

Design of highway pavement earthquake damage prediction method considering horizontal earthquake force
Authors:   Junlong Peng a:1:{s:5:", Peng Junlong ,   es_ES",   s:43:",   Changsha University of Science & Technology",   }
Published: March 2023

Due to the influence of geographical environment and horizontal seismic force, it is difficult to predict the seismic damage of urban highway pavement. In addition, poor engineering characteristics will cause damage to the stability of the subgrade and extremely easy to deformation. The above situation has become an important problem in highway construction. To improve the accuracy of earthquake damage prediction of highway pavement, a method of earthquake damage prediction considering horizontal seismic force is proposed. This method is based on the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation, taking the highway bridge, subgrade and pavement, roadside environment and highway tunnel as the main factors, and establishing the post-earthquake damage evaluation model of the highway system. Based on the analysis of the relevant data, the power polynomial prediction model is proposed, and the feasibility and parameter determination method of the power polynomial are analyzed. The stability of highway pavement under earthquake is predicted. The results show that the design method can predict the seismic damage of highway pavement. In addition, the proposed surface model can also simulate the settlement value and predict the settlement law.
Elementary Charge and Electron: One Entity Two Identities
Authors: Kirimi Misheck
Published: March 2023

Our knowledge of electricity is based on two parallel lines of research: one focusing on ‘charge’, the other on ‘electron’. The distinction is blurred. The difficulty is that the fundamental nature of elementary charge is unknown. Here I present evidence that charge is a resting electron and electron is a moving charge – one physical entity two behavioural identities. That is, charge is nonrelativistic electron and electron is relativistic charge. Charges obey the laws of static electricity (electrostatics); electrons obey the laws of moving electricity (electrodynamics). Whether positive or negative, a charge is ejected from the atom at tremendous speed, losing the characteristics of ‘a charge’ and gaining those of ‘an electron’. I conclude that an atom, hence nature in general, contains an equal number of positive and negative electrons, recognised at rest as opposite charges. This solves the mystery of the electron-positron numerical asymmetry. It means that static positions and negatrons (charges) play equivalent roles as subatomic building blocks of matter, revealing a new atomic structure.

Authors: Hendekli C. Mehmet
Published: March 2023

Immune checkpoint inhibition therapy (ICIT) is an emerging field in oncology especially opening new horizons to chemotherapy refractory patients. This paper provides deep insight into immune related adverse events (irAEs) posing a major challenge and drawback to ICIT, and presents right management strategies for very complex complications. Moreover, for the first time in literature, a non-linear mathematical model is introduced to measure the ICIT success rate and to decide about the optimum ICIT duration. Furthermore, a strategy is presented to overcome or to delay the progression after initial good response in a subset of patients.
Inferring Neurocognition and Intelligence using Brain MRI
Authors: Hussain Mohammad Arafat , Grant Ellen , Ou Yangming
Published: March 2023

Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) offers a unique lens to study neuroanatomic support of human neurocognition and intelligence. A core mystery is the MRI explanation of individual differences in neurocognition and intelligence. The past four decades have seen great advancement in studying this century-long mystery, but the sample size and population-level studies limit the explanation at the individual level. The recent rise of big data and artificial intelligence offers novel opportunities. Yet, data sources, harmonization, study design, and interpretation need to be carefully considered. This review aims to summarize past work, discuss rising opportunities and challenges, and facilitate further investigations on machine intelligence inferring human intelligence.

Published: March 2023

Background: Neuroendocrine tumors (NET) are a rare group of epithelial neoplasm present in gastrointestinal tract (GI) (67.5%), bronchopulmonary tree (25.3-30%), and in 15% of cases, the primary sites cannot be identified. Although endoscopic screening, improvement in pathological techniques, and early detection have shown improvement in NET survival rates, the prognosis of advanced, metastatic, and poorly differentiated NET is very poor. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the effect of Gastrointestinal and pancreatic (GEPs) NETs grade on overall survival. Method: We searched observational studies describing the overall survival or prognostic factors of primary GEP NETs from May 2011 -May 2021 following PRISMA guidelines. Studies describing the effect of primary grade 3 GEP NETs on overall survival were included. Meta-analysis was performed, and pooled hazard ratio and their 95% confidence interval (95% CI) were obtained. The forest plots were created using random-effects models and sensitivity analysis was performed to account for the heterogeneity. Results: Seven studies with 7692 confirmed patients were included. In our meta-analysis grade 3 GEP NET were associated with higher odds of poor survival (pooled HR: 2.73; 95% CI: 1.36–5.47; p = 0.005), with 92% heterogeneity between studies (p < 0.0001). To account for heterogeneity, sensitivity analysis was performed by removing two outlying studies (Fathi et al. and Foubert et al.) on funnel plots. The results after sensitivity analysis did not change and still showed significant association of grade 3 with poor survival (pooled HR: 4.53; 95% CI: 3.54–5.78; p < 0.00001), with no heterogeneity between studies (p = 0.72; I2 = 0%). Conclusion: Our meta-analysis found that grade 3 GEP NETs are associated with poor survival and additional future studies are needed to identify other risk factors associated with poor survival in GEP NETs to improve mortality.
Predicting Household Disaster Preparedness: An Integrated Machine Learning and Simulation Framework
Authors: Jiang Zhenlong , Chen Yudi , Yang Ting-Yeh , Ji Wenying , Dong Sasha (Zhijie) , Ji Ran
Published: March 2023

Effective household and individual disaster preparedness can minimize physical harm and property damage during catastrophic events. To assess the risk and vulnerability of affected areas, it is crucial for relief agencies to understand the level of public preparedness. Traditionally, government agencies have employed nationwide random telephone surveys to gauge the public’s attitudes and actions towards disaster preparedness. However, these surveys may lack generalizability in certain affected locations due to low response rates or areas not covered by the survey. To address this issue and enhance the comprehensiveness of disaster preparedness assessments, we develop a framework that seamlessly integrates machine learning and simulation. Our approach leverages machine learning algorithms to establish relationships between public attitudes towards disaster preparedness and demographic characteristics. Using Monte Carlo simulation, we generate datasets that incorporate demographic information of the affected location based on government-provided demographic distribution data. The generated dataset is then input into the machine learning model to predict the disaster preparedness attitudes of the affected population. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our framework by applying it to Miami-Dade County, where it accurately predicts the level of disaster preparedness. With this innovative approach, relief agencies can have a clearer and more comprehensive understanding of public disaster preparedness.
Similarity Laws of Geometric and Material Distortion for Anisotropic Elastic Structure Subjected to Impact Loads
Authors: Wang Shuai , Chang Xinzhe , Xu Fei , Li Jicheng , Wang Jiayi
Published: March 2023

Although the similarity laws were widely used in impact fields, the scaling relations of anisotropic elastic structures often were broken when the geometric distortion (not equal scaling in different spatial directions) and the material distortion (different materials used for scaled model and full-size prototype) were considered. To overcome the difficulty of geometric and material distortion, a directional framework of similarity laws, termed as oriented-density-length-velocity (ODLV) system, is proposed for the anisotropic elastic structure under impact loads. Different from previous similarity law systems using scalar dimensional analysis, the directional similarity law framework mainly considers spatial anisotropy for structural geometry and material parameters. Based on the oriented dimensional analysis and the orthotropic Hooke's law, directional dimensionless numbers and directional scaling relations with geometric power properties for the elastic modulus and the Poisson's ratio are presented systematically. By selecting the dominant material parameters controlling similarity, three important scaling techniques with correction of geometric width and thickness are proposed to compensate for the difficulty of distortion. A clamped square plate with different anisotropic and isotropic elastic materials subjected to dynamic pressure pulse is verified numerically and discussed in detail. The results show that the thin square plate prototype must be scaled to be the thinner/thicker rectangular plate, and the components of displacement, stress and strain between scaled model and full-scale prototype behave good consistency in both spatial and temporal fields.
The Lubricating Effect of Eye Drops Containing Hyaluronic Acid and Mallow Extract in Patients With Dry Eye Disease – A Pilot Study
Authors: Basile Andrea Attilio , Mandelli Giulia , Cendali Magda , Hufnagel Rebecca
Published: March 2023

Background and Objectives: Mucilaginous substances from plant extracts are known to be able to support the lubricating effect of hyaluronic acid (HA) in dry eye disease (DED). In this pilot study, the combined lubricating effect of HA and mallow extract (Malva sylvestris L.) in patients with DED was assessed. Materials and Methods: 20 patients at 5 ophthalmological practices in Italy were treated with eye drops, containing HA and mallow extract on the one hand, and with eye drops containing HA only, on the other hand, in a two-period crossover design. As primary endpoints, the tear film breakup time (TBUT), the reduction of lissamine green staining of the ocular surface (Oxford Scheme, OS), and the safety and efficacy assessment by the ophthalmologists were evaluated. As secondary variables, the patient symptom score, the ocular surface index (OSDI), and the satisfaction, preference and efficacy judgement by the patients were evaluated. All data were analysed descriptively in addition to an exploratory analysis of the target variables. Results: Both products were well tolerated. There were no statistically significant differences, with regard to the TBUT, OS and OSDI, between both treatments. Anyway, the efficacy and safety assessments by the ophthalmologists and the patients showed results in favour of the combined product. Conclusion: The addition of mallow extract to HA containing eye drops enhances the treatment of DED at least with respect to subjective measurements. Further assessments will have to be done to prove and explain this observation in terms of measurable parameters, e.g. markers for inflammatory cytokines.

Published: March 2023

We demonstrate that the conductivity of graphene on thin-film polymer substrates can be accurately determined by reflection-mode air-plasma-based THz time-domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS). The phase uncertainty issue associated with reflection measurements is discussed, and our implementation is validated by convincing agreement with graphene electrical properties extracted from more conventional transmission-mode measurements. Both the reflection and transmission THz-TDS measurements reveal strong nonlinear and instantaneous conductivity depletion across an ultra-broad bandwidth under relatively high incident THz electrical field strengths.
Influence of Fasting until Noon (Extended Postabsorptive State), on Clock Gene mRNA Expression and Regulation of Body Weight and Glucose Metabolism
Authors: Jakubowicz Daniela , Rosenblum Rachel Chava , Twito Orit
Published: March 2023

Abstract: The trend of fasting until noon (omission or delayed breakfast) is increasingly prevalent in modern society. This eating pattern triggers discordance between endogenous circadian clock rhythms and the feeding/fasting cycle and is associated with an increased incidence of obesity and T2D. Although the underlying mechanism of this association is not well understood, growing evidence suggests that fasting until noon, also known as an “extended postabsorptive state,” has the potential to cause a deleterious effect on clock gene expression and disrupted regulation of body weight, postprandial and overall glycemia, skeletal muscle protein synthesis, appetite and may also lead to lower energy expenditure. This manuscript overviews the clock gene-controlled glucose metabolism during the active and resting phases. The consequences of postponing until noon the transition from postabsorptive to fed state on glucose metabolism, weight control, and energy expenditure. Finally, we will discuss the metabolic advantage of shifting more energy, carbohydrates (CH), and proteins to the early hours of the day.

This study aims to determine chrysanthemums’ business opportunities by utilizing varieties at the difference in height to chrysanthemum crops and the impact of chrysanthemum development on farmers’ social institutions. The research was conducted purposively at the chrysanthemum production center and using the Complete Group Random Plan. The first factor is the height of the place: 300 m above sea level, 500 m above sea level, and 700 m above sea level. The second factor: chrysanthemum varieties are: Kusumaswasti, Sasikirana, Kusumapatria, Cintamani, Ratnahapsari Kusumasakti. Observed microclimate parameters: air temperature, the intensity of sunlight, and humidity of the air. Observed growth and yield parameters: height of plants, number of leaves, the diameter of stems, harvest time, and brightness of flower color. The socio-economic studies observed are business opportunities and the impact of farmers’ social, institutional development. The results show the height of the place of 500 meters above sea level affects the increasing vegetative growth of all chrysanthemums planted. The height of 700 m above sea level affects the increase of crop yields, especially the diameter of the flowers of Sasikirana, Ratnahapsari, and Kusumapatria varieties and the influence on the sharpness of the color of chrysanthemums of all varieties. Chrysanthemum agribusiness has farming opportunities as it can increase farmers’ income and social institutions dynamics. At the same time, introducing of innovations or new ventures to the farming community is not easy. This requires perseverance and the utmost patience, namely, in introducing of alternative commodities of high economic value.
Modern Architecture and Ideology in German Children’s Literature
Authors: Meibauer Jörg
Published: March 2023

Architecture, in the real world as well as in the fictional world of children’s literature, seems always to be connected with ideology, i.e. a system of beliefs held by a social group or society as a whole. This is shown with respect to German children’s literature dealing with famous buildings of the 20th century, namely the semi-detached house by Le Corbusier and Pierre Jeanneret in the Stuttgart Weißenhofsiedlung that is portrayed in Hannelore erlebt die Großstadt by Clara Hohrath (1935 [1931]), the Hochhaus an der Weberwiese by Hermann Henselmann in the Berlin Stalinallee, figuring in Die Flaschenpost im Hochhaus by Annegret Hofmann and Helga Leue (1988), and the 660–680 Lake Shore Drive Apartments by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe in Chicago, described in Alles Bauhaus?

Habitualmente, estas experiencias se realizan en asignaturas/ materias concretas de algún Grado. En el campo de la Arquitectura y la Edificación es imprescindible fomentar la transversalidad entre: Proyectos, Estructuras, Construcción e Instalaciones; y la colaboración y diálogo entre profesionales, garantizando la calidad de la obra construida.

El Grado en Arquitectura y de Ingeniería de Edificación de la UCAM Universidad Católica de Murcia y el Grado en Fundamentos de la Arquitectura de la Universitat Politècnica de València, pusieron en marcha el curso 21/22 un proyecto de innovación docente, que utiliza el blog con una nueva y amplia perspectiva, implicando al profesorado y alumnado de varias asignaturas/materias de ambos grados y universidades.

La participación activa del estudiantado nutrió el blog con 5 publicaciones por participante y semestre. Se ampliaron los conocimientos específicos y se trabajaron competencias básicas y trasnversales: la iniciación a la investigación, el aprendizaje autónomo, etc.;  en un entorno colaborativo que despiertó su razonamiento crítico y capacidad de gestión de información.

Los buenos resultados motivan la continuidad del proyecto en este curso académico, estableciendo sinergias interuniversitarias muy enriquecedoras.

In shale gas wells, oil-based mud (OBM) changes the casing and rock surface wettability during drilling. It negatively affects the bonding and sealing of cement sheaths with casing or formation rock. Although the spacer is widely used in primary cementing, the casing and formation rock surface are wetted by OBM or oil phase due to poor displacement. For this work, a novel oleophilic cement slurry modified by fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether sodium sulfate (AES) was investigated to decrease the negative effect of OBM- or oil-wetted surface. The contact angle of nonpolar solvent 1-bromonaphthalene on the cement surface decreased from 35° to 8°, showing an ideal oleophilic property. The hydraulic isolation capacity; microstructure of the cement-casing or cement-rock interface; and the pore structure, hydration, and mechanical property of AES-modified cement were investigated by interfacial hydraulic isolation test device, computed tomography (CT), mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP), X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analyses (TGAs), and mechanical test. The results showed that the oleophilic cement could directly bond with an oil- or OBM-wetted surface and significantly eliminate the microchannel and connected pores caused by the oil phase or OBM on the interface. The fluid channeling on the OBM-wetted cement-rock and casing interface was prevented, and the sealing pressure of the interface was increased from approximately 3 to 7 MPa/m (fluid channeling occurred) to higher than 275 MPa/s (fluid channeling did not occur), respectively. Besides, the hydration degree, porosity, and mechanical property of the oleophilic cement remained at the same level as the conventional cement, indicating that the AES has no adverse effect on cement hydration and properties. The findings of this study can contribute to the cement slurry design in shale gas well cementing to improve the interface bonding and sealing when poor displacement happens.

Temporary plugging technology has been widely applied in multicluster fracturing for the uniform growth of multiple fractures. To investigate the propagation behavior of multiple fractures and explore a better fracturing scheme during temporary plugging fracturing, a 2D finite element method (FEM)-discrete fracture network (DFN) model is established. An improved traction-separation law is used to describe the constitutive behavior of fractures under different types of stress. The model is further integrated with the perforation pressure drop model, considering the dynamic perforation erosion effect to simulate the fracture geometry more accurately. Based on the model, the impact of the perforation erosion effect on the propagation of multicluster fractures in the naturally fractured reservoir is quantitatively evaluated first. The result showed that the effect can intensify the nonuniformity among multicluster fractures, especially under the condition of small cluster spacing. Then, the simulation for temporary plugging fracturing is carried out under different cluster spacings. Finally, the plugging time optimization in temporary plugging fracturing is explored. The model and results presented in this paper can provide new insight into the impact of the perforation erosion effect and exploration for plugging time optimization in temporary plugging fracturing.

Asphaltene precipitation is one of the challenging flow assurance problems as it can cause permeability impairment and pipeline blockages by depositing on the surface of well tubing, flowlines, and heat exchangers. The cost of remediating an unexpected asphaltene problem is expensive and time-consuming wherever offshore or on land. Thus, the provision of asphaltene precipitation is vital and an effective approach is stability screening for monitoring asphaltene precipitation problems. In this study, asphaltene stability performance in crude oil was evaluated using six machine learning (ML) techniques, namely decision tree (DT), Naïve Bayes (NB), support vector machine (SVM), artificial neural networks (ANN), random forest (RF), and k-nearest neighbor (KNN). A large stability data containing 186 crude oil samples of known stability were used to design the classification models for predicting asphaltene stability. The inputs to the models were the content of saturates, aromatics, resins, and asphaltenes (SARA); and the output was stability. The classification results showed that the best classification model is the KNN classifier, and it has an accuracy of 82%, area under the curve (AUC) of 83%, precision of 75%, and f1-score of 83%. Also, three empirical correlations with high accuracy including stability index (SI), stability crossplot (SCP), and asphaltene stability predicting model (ANJIS) were utilized comparatively with the ML models to evaluate asphaltene stability. Results revealed that the KNN classifier has superior performance in this work with an accuracy of 80%, a precision of 82%, and an f1-score of 79%. Results of this study showed that ML is effective for asphaltene stability, providing potential in asphaltene management to reduce asphaltene deposition risk in production.
Improvement and Implementation of an Adaptive Congestion DSR Routing Algorithm on Chip

A classic routing protocol Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) can quickly establish a routing path but it is prone to cause a congestion and load unbalance under a presence of high amount of traffic. To improve the performance of DSR in large data networks and to solve various problems caused by network congestion, an improved DSR(DSR-p) is proposed. DSR-p has the congestion control ability by using Hello messages to find out the congestion status of links and establishing a ``bypass“ based on the congestion status. In addition, a congestion parameter γ is introduced to define the status of a link, whether the link is congested(red) or not(green).Simulations with Truetime, a network simulation library,were performed to evaluate the performance of DSR-p. The simulation results show that the DRS-p can effectively improve packet delivery rate (PDR) and reduce end-to-end delay (ED), routing overhead (EO) and energy consumption. Furthermore, the experimental tests were conducted with Telos B Mote TPR2420 on TinyOS platform. The test results demonstrate DSR-p outperforms DSR on PDR performance as the amount of transmitted data is larger, increasing by 5.6% as the packet sending rate reaches 900 packets/h. Therefore, both simulation and experimental results prove that the proposed DSR-p performs more efficiently than the conventional DSR.

Background: DYX1C1 (DNAAF4) and DCDC2 are two of the most replicated dyslexia candidate genes in genetic studies. They both have demonstrated roles in neuronal migration, in cilia growth and function and they both are cytoskeletal interactors. In addition, they both have been characterized as ciliopathy genes. However, their exact molecular functions are still incompletely described. Based on these known roles, we asked whether DYX1C1 and DCDC2 interact on the genetic and the protein level.
Results:Here, we report the physical protein-protein interaction of DYX1C1 and DCDC2 via the centrosomal protein CPAP (CENPJ) on exogenous and endogenous levels in different cell models including brain organoids. In addition, we show a synergistic genetic interaction between dyx1c1and dcdc2b in zebrafish exacerbating the ciliary phenotype and suggesting a common pathway in development. Finally, we show a mutual effect on transcriptional regulation among DYX1C1 and DCDC2 in a cellular model.
Conclusions: In summary, we describe the physical and functional interaction between the two genes DYX1C1 and DCDC2 that link them to a common pathway. These results contribute to the growing understanding of the molecular roles of DYX1C1 and DCDC2 and set the stage for future functional studies.
