Authors: López Varela Emilio , Barreira Rodríguez M. Noelia , Olivier Pascual Nuria , Garcia Ben Emma , Rubio Cid Sara , González Penedo Manuel F.
Published: February 2023

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a non-invasive diagnostic technique that can image ocular structures. Recently, this imaging technique has been used to diagnose and monitor patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), as several clinical studies have linked the development of MS to various changes in the eye. Among the different structures, one of the relevant biomarkers for MS analysis is the choroid. Systems such as Enhanced Depth Imaging (EDI) provide detailed images of the choroid region. However, OCT images are not routinely captured using this technology unless the study is specifically focused on choroidal analysis. In this work we propose a robust approach, based on convolutional neural networks to segment the choroid in non-EDI OCT images. The results obtained show that the proposed network manages to delimit the inferior contour of the choroid in a similar way to the experts.
Web-based platform for the automatic analysis and visualization of vascular diagnostic markers in ophthalmological images
Authors: Morano José , Hervella Álvaro S. , Novo Jorge , Rouco José
Published: February 2023

Currently, more than 400 million people are visually impaired due to different diseases. To diagnose many of these diseases, it is often fundamental to perform an exhaustive analysis of the retinal vasculature. Notwithstanding, such an analysis is rarely done in clinical practice, since it is arduous. This motivated the proposal of automatic methods. Some of these methods provide valuable results. However, their use is limited, as there are no graphical tools in which to integrate them. In this work, we propose a new web- based tool for the analysis of medical images using automatic methods. The tool already includes methods for analyzing the retinal vasculature. Also, it allows to dynamically add any method that complies with the API. All data is securely stored in the cloud for ubiquitous access. All these features, together with an intuitive interface, make the tool an effective solution for implementing automatic methods in daily clinical practice.

Authors: Gutiérrez-Asorey Pablo , R. Brisaboa Nieves , V. Rodeiro Tirso
Published: February 2023

Our project is aimed at the creation of SIGTRANS, a tool focused on addressing the need of efficiently storing and analyzing the vast amount of data related to the use of public transport networks. This is a highly relevant research topic given the changes urban mobility is experiencing, including but not limited to those motivated by climate change. We will provide transport authorities and operators with a system, combining the use of GIS technologies, compact data structures and advanced algorithms, to facilitate the exploration and exploitation of the available data. This data refers to both the offer in terms of infrastructure and mobility services available for the citizens, and the demand (that is, the use citizens are expecting out of these services). The analysis of this data will then serve as the foundation for further improvements to public transport services.
Deep learning-based detection of domain-specific retinal landmarks for color fundus image registration
Authors: Rivas-Villar David , Hervella Álvaro S. , Rouco José , Novo Jorge
Published: February 2023

Retinal imaging is widely used to diagnose and monitor eye-specific pathologies as well as some systemic diseases. Registering retinal images is crucial to compare the relevant structures within the eye. In this work, we propose a deep learning-based method to register color fundus images using domain-specific landmarks. We employ a deep neural network to detect bifurcations and crossovers of the retinal arterio-venous vessel tree. Then, these keypoints are directly matched using RANSAC. Our method was tested using the public FIRE dataset obtaining a registration score of 0.657, which is comparable to the best state of the art methods although our proposal is comparably much faster. Furthermore, our method improves the results of the state of the art deep learning methods.
A Multi-platform Collaborative Architecture for Multi-User eXtended Reality Applications
Authors: Vidal-Balea Aida , Blanco-Novoa Óscar , Fraga-Lamas Paula , Fernández-Caramés Tiago M.
Published: February 2023

In the last years, new visualization devices related to technologies like AR, MR and VR have emerged. Such devices have proven to be useful for numerous medical, industrial and manufacturing processes, but the technologies they use tend to be platform dependent. Currently, the Khronos group is making an effort to change this thanks to the OpenXR framework, which provides tools to standardize the development for different XR (Extended Reality) platforms. However, many processes and tasks require multiple users to interact with the same virtual environment simultaneously. To tackle this issue, this paper presents an XR solution that allows for the creation of collaborative applications that can be used at the same time by different platforms, such as computers (i.e., Windows, Mac or Linux PCs) and Mixed Reality smart glasses (e.g., Microsoft HoloLens 2). The proposed architecture is based on Unity and Mirror, a high-level networking tool for the mentioned game engine. The solution allows developers to design just one application that could be compiled and deployed to different platform devices without the need for changing any configuration or for adapting the project to each of the platform requisites. The proposed system also allows for using multiple devices simultaneously, providing a new way for collaborative interaction with the application, showing all the visual components synchronized in the same position and in the same state, thus facilitating communications and awareness of the environment for the developed XR experiences.

Analysis of Imbalanced Datasets in the Performance of Deep Learning Approaches for COVID-19 Screening from Chest X-ray Imaging: Impact of Sex and Age Factors
Authors: Alvarez Lorena , Moura Joaquim de , Ramos Lucía , Novo Jorge , Ortega Marcos
Published: February 2023

In this work, we analysed 11 imbalance scenarios with female and male COVID-19 patients present in different proportions for the sex analysis, and 6 scenarios where only one specific age range was used for training for the age factor. In each study, 3 different approaches for automatic COVID-19 screening were used: (I) Normal vs COVID-19, (II) Pneumonia vs COVID-19 and (III) Non-COVID-19 vs COVID-19.

The present study was validated using two representative public chest X-ray datasets, allowing a reliable analysis to support the clinical decision-making process.

The results for the sex-related analysis indicate this factor slightly affects the COVID- 19 deep learning-based systems, although the identified differences are not relevant enough to considerably worsen the system. Regarding the age-related analysis, this factor was observed to be influencing the system in a more consistent way than the sex factor, as it was present in all considered scenarios.

Authors: Tripathi Shraddha , Mishra Neha , Mishra Neetu
Published: February 2023

The emergence of antimicrobial resistance and the side effects of synthetic drugs have raised an interest in searching for new antimicrobial compounds. The present study aims to evaluate in vitro antibacterial activity of green coffee and its active compounds (chlorogenic acid extract and caffeine extract) against some periodontogenic and nosocomial bacteria. The bioactive compounds, viz. chlorogenic acid and caffeine, were extracted through soxhlet extraction using methanol and water, respectively, and HPLC UV quantified these compounds. The study reported 3 CQA, 4 CQA, and 5 CQA as the significant chlorogenic acids in green coffee beans. Aqueous extract of green coffee beans (AGCB), which is dominant in caffeine, has been found to be the least effective against both periodontal and nosocomial bacteria. The result of our study revealed that the methanol extract of green coffee bean (MGCB), rich in chlorogenic acid, exhibits the highest inhibitory activity against periodontogenic bacteria, followed by the ethanol extract of green coffee bean (EGCB) and AGCB extract. EGCB extract was significantly effective against Staphylococcus epidermidis among selected nosocomial pathogens. AGCB extract was least effective against all bacteria. The results highlight that green coffee polyphenols, especially chlorogenic acid, could be used as antimicrobial agents in different biotechnological applications. The antibacterial property of green coffee highlights its potential as a naturally active antibacterial compound.

The study objectives were the determination of Mentha rotundifolia essential oils composition using GC/MS analysis and the evaluation of their antimicrobial activities. In addition, the determination of the relationships between plants acclimatization conditions, essential oils composition and antimicrobial activities.
Essential oils extracted via hydrodistillation method from wild plants and acclimatized plants in different culture conditions of Mentha rotundifolia. Five selected pathogenic microbial strains were used to evaluate EOs in vitro antimicrobial activities.
Essential oils GC/MS analysis revealed the dominance of the oxygenated monoterpene (piperitenone oxide). A significant effect of plant culture conditions in acclimatization room on essential oils composition compared to the control was observed. We also noted that antimicrobial activities of extracted essential oils from acclimatized plants were higher than those from field-grown M. rotundifolia plants.
Content of Piperitenone Oxide in acclimatized plantlets is 93.07% for plantlets cultured at 16°C and a photoperiod of 16 hours light / 8 hours dark, statistically higher than wild plants where it is around 78%. We also noted the presence of Limonene (5.7%) in plantlets grown at 35°C which is significantly different than that of the wild plants (1.55 %). Essential oils antimicrobial activities showed that the plantlets grown at 16 °C or in total darkness were more active towards the tested strains. While, the EO of plantlets cultured at 35 °C were the least active.

Authors: Preetika S  , Indhuja V  , Sowmya C
Published: February 2023

Oral submucous fibrosis (OSF) is caused by aberrant collagen deposition in the oral mucosa. A chronic, creeping, scarring disease of the oral cavity often involving the pharynx and upper oesophagus is how it's been described for centuries. It is the most dangerous oral premalignant condition and evolve into malignant tumours in 1.5% to 15% of cases. It is found primarily in India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and Bangladesh. Submucous fibrosis, ulceration, xerostomia, a burning feeling, and a restricted opening of the mouth are some of the signs and symptoms to look out for. A patient's quality of life is severely affected by all of these factors. Chewing on areca nuts is the most significant source of danger. Efforts to improve management have been ongoing due to the disease's high mortality and high malignant transformation rate, respectively. Understanding the precise involvement of etiological agents in pathogenesis will aid in management and therapy methods. From a molecular standpoint, this paper provides an overview of background of OSF, including its underlying processes, diagnostic biomarkers, and therapy options. Prevention of OSF is just as crucial as rigorous therapy. For future studies to be effective, oral health literacy has to be improved among people at risk for OSF.

Hukum tentang kepailitan pada dasarnya sudah ada sejak zaman Romawi. Pengundangan Undang-Undang Nomor 4 Tahun 1998, Kepailitan dan PKPU telah membawa perubahan yang signifikan dalam hal prosedur beracara untuk perkara kepailitan. Setelah Indonesia merdeka, 17 Agustus 1945, Faillissementverordening (Staatsblad 1905-217) berdasarkan Pasal II Aturan Peralihan UUD 1945, bahwa "segala badan negara dan peraturan yang ada masih langsung berlaku selama belum diadakan yang baru menurut Undang-Undang Dasar ini", maka seluruh perangkat hukum yang ada termasuk Faillissementverordening (Staatsblad 1905-217) diteruskan berlakunya sehingga menjadi ketentuan: Faillissementverordening (Staatsblad 1905-217 juncto Staatsblad 1906-348) yang disebut "Peraturan Kepailitan". Sebagai akibat dari gejolak moneter yang terjadi sejak pertengahan tahun 1997, khususnya terhadap masalah utang piutang dikalangan dunia usaha nasional, maka penyelesaian yang cepat adalah sangat dibutuhkan untuk membantu mengatasi situasi yang tidak menentu dibidang perekonomian. Untuk mengatasinya Pemerintah telah mengeluarkan Perppu Nomor I Tahun 1998 tentang Perubahan atas Undang-Undang Tentang Kepailitan kemudian telah disahkan menjadi Undang-Undang Nomor 4 Tahun 1998 pada tanggal 9 September 1998 yang merupakan penyempurnaan Faillissementsverordening Staatsblad Tahun 1905 Nomor 217 juncto Staatsblad Tahun 1906 Nomor 348. Dengan makin pesatnya perkembangan perekonomian dan perdagangan serta makin banyaknya permasalahan utang-piutang yang timbul dalam dunia usaha yang belum bisa diselesaikan dengan Undang-Undang Nomor 4 Tahun 1998 tentang Kepailitan, kembali ketentuan tersebut mengalami perubahan menjadi Undang-Undang Nomor 37 Tahun 2004 Tentang Kepailitan dan Penundaan Kewajiban Pembayaran Utang yang diundangkan pada tanggal 18 Oktober 2004. Buku ini menggambarkan dan membahas hukum kepailitan dan PKPU di Indonesia yang saat ini diatur di dalam Undang-Undang Nomor 37 Tahun 2004 Tentang Kepailitan dan Penundaan Kewajiban Pembayaran Utang. Didalam buku ini diuraikan antara lain tentang sejarah kepailitan, pengertian kepailitan, asas-asas hukum kepailitan, akibat kepailitan maupun pihak pihak yang terlibat dalam suatu prosess kepilitan. Di samping itu buku ini juga berisi uraian proses Kepailitan dan PKPU, tujuan Kepailitan dan PKPU serta tujuan Kepailitan dan PKPU.

Authors: Oktyabrskaya Olga Svyatoslavovna
Published: February 2023

This article is devoted to the specifics of understanding the topic of maturation in modern prose. The aim of the study is to identify the originality and features of the process of adolescent’s maturation in the story of one of the iconic writers of our time - T. V. Mikheeva. The scientific novelty of the study is due to this topic crudity in modern literary criticism and the importance of the problem of child’s and adolescent’s maturation in contemporary Russian literature. The article shows the main stages of the main character’s maturation at the personal, social and family levels: maximalist rejection of the ongoing changes, rebellious challenge to the family and society, voluntary loneliness and isolation for independent understanding of the problem, search for a way out of the current situation. Complex processes of a gradual exit from the child’s illusory and conflict-free world and movement towards youthful entry into adulthood, full of problems and contradictions, are revealed. At the same time, the change in behaviour, character and outlook on life is traced not only in the image of the main character, but also in other characters of the story, both adolescents and adults. The main moral priorities of the characters and the author are indicated - a family, held together by love and respect of its members for each other. The results obtained showed the significance of the stated problem, which made it possible to analyse the heroine’s initiatory path to a new stage of life and to identify “growing pains” typical of an adolescent.
“A Hero of His Time”: On Characteristics of Yuri Zhivago’s Image
Authors: Molodtsov Aleksey Borisovich
Published: February 2023

The aim of the study is to specify the originality of Zhivago’s image as a novelistic hero in accordance with the “personal poetics” of B. Pasternak. The author of the article analyses different aspects of the comparison of the author and the hero in the novel “Doctor Zhivago”, gives his own interpretation of the image, and determines the discrepancy between the image of Zhivago and the traditional hero of lyrical prose. The scientific novelty of the study lies in a more detailed analysis of the hero, which has led to the identification of an additional genre-generic basis of the novel “Doctor Zhivago” - drama. As a result, it has been found out that Doctor Zhivago is an independent hero, who objectifies only a certain part of B. Pasternak’s personality, and not a lyrical hero. Yuri Zhivago is not the narrator of the novel. The narration in the novel is conducted not only from Zhivago’s point of view; his storyline constantly gives way to the storylines of other characters. Despite the presence of notes in the novel by Yuri Andreevich himself (a diary and a book of poems), we do not recognize the novel whole through his creative work. The contradictory worldview and behaviour of Doctor Zhivago are not the absolute moral norm of the novel. The system of images in Doctor Zhivago most closely resembles the system of actors in a drama.
