KELLICOTTIA BOSTONIENSIS (ROUSSELET, 1908) AND K. LONGISPINA (KELLICOTT, 1879) (ROTIFERA: BRACHIONIDAE): THE PATTERN OF THE OCCURRENCE AND SPREAD IN THE LAKES IN THE UPPER AND MIDDLE VOLGA
Authors: PODSHIVALINA V. , SEMENOVA A.
Published: June 2023

In lakes of the Upper Volga (Yaroslavl district) and in the lower course of the Sura River (Middle Volga), closely related rotifers - common for both studied regions native K. longispina and alien K. bostoniensis - were found. Both species occur all year round and more frequently in spring or autumn, when they are the most abundant. Alien rotifer K. bostoniensis occurred not only simultaneously with indigenous species, but also separately, in more shallow waterbodies. Alien species is more tolerate to bathymetry, basin form, transparency and the trophy state of the waterbody. This likely facilitates wider distribution of the K. bostoniensis in the Sura basin waterbodies compared to indigenous species. Alien species K. bostoniensis spread relatively quickly in the Sura basin without any harm to closely related indigenous species, to which it is not a competitor.

Published: June 2023

An economic assessment of the damage caused by invasive tree insect pests and pathogens in urban plantings of St. Petersburg is given. Between 2001 and 2020, the invasion of elm bark beetles Scolytus multistriatus (Marsham), S. scolytus (Fabricius) and S. pygmaeus (Fabricius) and the concomitant spread of Dutch elm disease caused by the fungi Ophiostoma ulmi (Buisman) Nannfeldt and O. novo-ulmi (Brasier) (Ascomycota: Ophiostomataceae) resulted in the death of at least 37 000 elms in the city. The total damage exceeded 50 billion rubles. Compulsory sanitary cutting of the infected elms raised significant public concern. Plantations of common use, especially historical parks and gardens, lost most important landscape compositions, in which exactly elm trees had a key role. In two years, 2022-2022, the economic losses associated with the invasion and spread of Emerald ash borer Agrilus planipennis , reached 270 million rubles. Detection of infested ash trees and their timely felling was effective. However, not all infested trees were spotted and removed and the pest reproduction continued. Urgent measures are needed to prevent further spread of Emerald ash borer and other invasive pests and pathogens in St. Petersburg and adjacent territories.
THE UPDATED CHECK-LIST OF ALIEN PLANT SPECIES IN THE REPUBLIC OF MORDOVIA: A PATH FROM 2010 TO 2023

Published: June 2023

The monitoring and inventory of the composition of alien plant species is an important step towards obtaining complete information about the biological diversity in a study area. By February 2023, the backbone reference on the alien flora composition in the Republic of Mordovia was the book “Vascular plants of the Republic of Mordovia (synopsis of flora)” published in 2010. This study was aimed to update the list of alien plant species for both the Republic of Mordovia and each municipal district by the nowadays (February 2023). The study was mainly focused on species (69 taxa) replenished the alien flora of the Republic of Mordovia in 2010-2023, and formation of the updated list of the alien flora of the region. The largest number of new species was found in the Saransk urban district (29 species), Temnikov district (25 species), Romodanovo district (11 species), and Ichalki district (10 species). The largest number of these species (74.6% of all floristic novelties) is ergasiophygophytes and xeno-ergasiophygophytes escaping to the wild. The main part of xenophytes is not naturalised plants (i. e. colonophytes and ephemerophytes). Four species ( Amaranthus paniculatus , Dianthus chinensis , Malva neglecta , Rosa dumalis , R. pratorum ) previously considered as aliens in the Republic of Mordovia were excluded from the list of the alien flora. As a result of the study, the alien flora of the Republic of Mordovia currently includes 456 species from 271 genera and 70 families. The highest number of alien species was found in the Saransk urban district (342 species), Ruzaevka district (272 species), and Temnikov district (244 species). At the same time, floras of Elniki district (133 species), Dubenki district (132 species), Atyuryevo district (124 species), and Bolshoe Ignatovo district (117 species) include the lowest number of alien species. This is probably caused by an underestimation of their alien flora, and this fact underlines the need for additional special investigations of aliens. Lists of the alien flora of both the Republic of Mordovia and each municipal district are available as a dataset in Zenodo. This material is intended to serve as a backbone reference for further studies of the alien flora in the Republic of Mordovia.

Published: June 2023

The potential ranges of three near-water mammals included in the list of the 100 most dangerous invasive species of Russia (Сanadian beaver, Muskrat, American mink) were presented. Maps of suitable habitats of species were created by ensemble modeling of spatial distribution of species (eSDM) based on global species occurrence records in native and invasive range, bioclimatic variables characterizing the current climate. The efficiency of the construction of ensemble models as compared to individual models (iSDM) is evaluated. The results of analysis of consequences of invasions of near-water mammals are presented and the features of control of number and limitation of their distribution in the future on the territory of Russia are considered. The patterns of formation of the invasive part of the range of alien near-aquatic mammals are summarized and suitable regions for their future invasions are predicted.
TRACE ELEMENT CONTENT IN THE PINK SALMON FROM THE RIVERS OF THE BARENTS AND OKHOTSK SEAS BASINS
Authors: KHRISTOFOROVA N. , LITVINENKO A. , ALEKSEEV M. , TSYGANKOV V.
Published: June 2023

The concentrations of Pb, Cd, Ni, Cu and Zn were determined in the invasive pink salmon that came to spawn into the Kola and Tuloma rivers of the Kola Peninsula, flowing into the Barents Sea, in July 2019. The content of trace elements in the organs and tissues of pink salmon introduced in the Euro-Arctic waters of Russia was compared to those of the pink salmon from its natural range, which returned to spawn in the rivers of the Sakhalin and Iturup Islands in 2016-2018. It has been established that concentrations of Zn, Cu and Ni noticeably predominate in all organs and tissues of introduced pink salmon, whereas Pb and Cd - in the Sea of Okhotsk pink salmon. Obviously, the differences in the microelement composition in fish are caused by environmental conditions. In the Barents Sea, they are formed under the influence of the Gulf Stream, as well as the anthropogenic impact of the Kola Peninsula, which is characterized by the extraction, processing and smelting of a number of metals, primarily Ni and Cu, as well as Zn. In the Sakhalin-Kuril basin, the specificity of the environment and the microelement composition of salmon are due to the influence of natural factors - volcanism and upwellings. Herds of pink salmon during feeding and migration in the Pacific Ocean cross a high-nutrient and at the same time geochemically impact natural zone formed by the Kuril Ridge and the Kuril-Kamchatka depression, which supplies chemical elements to surface waters. Here, the concentration of Pb is most markedly increased in fish. The development of the introduced pink salmon in the new area is facilitated by the recent increase in temperature in the waters of the North Atlantic, so the amount of fish production in it will increase. The mastering of pink salmon in new feeding places sets before scientists the task of monitoring the dynamics of its abundance, taking adequate measures for fishery regulation and fish quality control.
FINDING OF THE WESTERN CONIFER SEED BUG LEPTOGLOSSUS OCCIDENTALIS (HETEROPTERA: COREIDAE) IN THE VORONEZH NATURE RESERVE (CENTRAL RUSSIA)
Authors: EMETS V.
Published: June 2023

In the south-east of the forest area of the Voronezh Nature Reserve (quarter 541, central estate, 51°52ʹ33ʺ N; 39°39ʹ09ʺ E,) outside on the window of the main administrative building, a female of the western conifer seed bug Leptoglossus occidentalis (Heidemann, 1910) was recorded on November 19, 2021. It is an actively spreading species native to North America, where it damages seed plantations of coniferous trees and shrubs reducing significantly their seed productivity. This finding is the northernmost in the European part of Russia (the nearest location is 40 km to the south of the reserve, on the outskirts of Voronezh). This is probably the result of unintentional introduction by motor vehicle (there are three parking lots for tourist buses and cars of visitors next to the main administrative building of the reserve).

Published: June 2023

Background: An ulcer is a discontinuity in the epithelial surface. Ulcers are wounds with a full-thickness depth and have a varied healing tendency.
Ulcers can present with complete loss of the epidermis, loss of the dermis and also loss of subcutaneous fat. Lower limb chronic ulcers are a
relatively common condition among adults, which often causes discomforting pain at rest, limits mobility and also brings social distress. It is
estimated that the prevalence of active leg ulceration is 0.15%. The aetiology of chronic limb ulcers includes venous disorders, arterial disease and
neuropathy. The prevalence of leg ulcers depends on various associated concomitant diseases and also varies geographically and even among
ethnic groups. This study is being conducted to assess the factors associate Aims and Objectives: d with lower limb ulcers and its aetiology on the
patients admitted to Kanyakumari Government Medical College. The study is carried out on 100 patient Materials and Methods: s with lower
limb ulcers admitted to the Department of General Surgery at KGMCH. The Results: study was conducted among 100 patients, with the majority
of patients in the age group between 19 and 78 years of age and a mean age of 61. Male predominance was reported in the study, with 67 patients
being male. The ankle-brachial pressure index (ABPI) of the study population is between 0.7 and 0.9 for 43% of patients. The study identied that
right foot is the most common site involved. Diabetes was the commonest metabolic disorder and present in 40% of the patients 31% of the patients
have hypertension. 57% of the study population presented in Wagner's Grade 3 ulcer. The average size of the ulcer at the time of presentation is 4.8
cm2. As the age of people advances, the chances of them getting chronic leg ul Conclusion: cers also proportionately increase. It is also evident that
the incidence of ulcers is higher among the male population, as they have more mobility in the outside environment and tend to have more ulcers
than the female population. Though systemic diseases like diabetes play a major role as a precipitative metabolic event, leg ulcers are often the
leading cause of hospitalisation, loss of mobility, pain and amputation, and incur huge nancial burdens. The chronicity of the problem and its
perennial nature always result in an ongoing melody throughout the life span of the individuals. Prevention followed by early appropriate care is the
only option that can help get rid of this and avoid the agony of amputation. The newer concepts of wound care, such as vacuum therapy, hyperbaric
oxygen therapy, PRP therapy, etc., must be made available at all public hospitals to cater to the needs of these suffering people.

One Group will receive 10% lidocaine spray around the periapical and periodontal areas. Second Group will receive supraperiosteal Inltration. Pain tolerance will be recorded while performing the dental extraction at 3, and 5 minutes and at end of the procedure. The pain tolerance between the teeth that was extracted by administration of local anaesthetic spray and with those receiving supraperiosteal inltrations will be compared. Readings of the two groups will be recorded and subjected to statistical analysis. The extraction procedure will be performed by a single operator. The study is single blinded. Results – There is a signicant difference in the efcacy of 10% lignocaine spray and Supraperiosteal Inltration as in controlling pain during extraction of tooth, in adults Conclusion: The efcacy of supraperiosteal Inltration was superior compared to 10% lignocaine spray respectively. The patients who received supraperiosteal inltration perceived less pain during extraction of tooth when compared to patients who received 10% lignocaine spray. There is a signicant difference in the efcacy of 10% lignocaine spray and Supraperiosteal Inltration as in controlling pain during extraction of tooth, in adults. Hence, we advocate the use only of an inltration prior to any dental extraction.

Multi-BD Symbiotic Radio-Aided 6G IoT Network: Energy Consumption Optimization with QoS Constraint Approach
Authors: Saadat Yeganeh Rahman , omidi mohammad javad , ghavami mohammad
Published: June 2023

The commensal symbiotic radio (CSR) system is proposed as a novel solution for connecting systems through green communication networks. This system enables us to establish secure, ubiquitous, and unlimited connectivity, which is a goal of 6G. The base station uses MIMO antennas to transmit its signal. Passive IoT devices, called symbiotic backscatter devices (SBDs), receive the signal and use it to charge their power supply. When the SBDs have data to transmit, they modulate the information onto the received ambient RF signal and send it to the symbiotic user equipment, which is a typical active device. The main purpose is to enhance energy efficiency in this network by minimizing energy consumption (EC) while ensuring the minimum required throughput for SBDs. To achieve this, we propose a new scheduling scheme called Timing-SR that optimally allocates resources to SBDs. The main optimization problem involves non-convex objective functions and constraints. To solve this, we use mathematical techniques and introduce a new approach called sequential quadratic and conic quadratic representation to relax and discipline the problem, leading to reducing its complexity and convergence time. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed approach outperforms other outlined schemes in reducing EC.
SENet: Sequential Encoders for One-Shot Learning
Authors: Abdi Nariman , Parvaresh Farzad , Sabahi Mohammad Farzan
Published: June 2023

One-shot object recognition is a challenging task for deep neural networks. It becomes more difficult when there is a domain shift between support and query samples. The generalization of a deep model on an unknown domain with different distributions is another problematic task in on-shot recognition. This work introduces a novel deep network architecture named SENet and a multi-step meta-training strategy to overcome the aforementioned problems. To the best of our knowledge, this work outperforms all state-of-the-art models in one-shot traffic sign recognition and one-shot logo identification by superior results. Although the SENet model achieves comparable results for the traditional GTSRB benchmark, it has about 6X fewer parameters than its competitors. The smaller size of the SENet architecture enables it to be used in resource-constrained devices in many applications such as smart vehicles. The experimental results depict that our proposed SENet performance is ameliorated by large margins, with up to 20% accuracy for one-shot classification and 30% area under the curve (AUC) for image retrieval tasks.

Published: June 2023

In 3D freehand ultrasound imaging, operator dependent variations in applied forces and movements can lead to errors in the reconstructed images. In this paper, we introduce an automated 3D ultrasound system, which enables acquisitions with controlled movement trajectories by using motors, which electrically move the probe. Due to integrated encoders there is no need of position sensors. An included force control mechanism ensures a constant contact force to the skin. We conducted 8 trials with the automated 3D ultrasound system on 2 different phantoms with 3 force settings and 10 trials on a human tibialis anterior muscle with 2 force settings. For comparison, we also conducted 8 freehand 3D ultrasound scans from 2 operators (4 force settings) on one phantom and 10 with one operator on the tibialis anterior muscle. Both freehand and automated trials showed small errors in volume and length computations of the reconstructions, however the freehand trials showed larger standard deviations. We also computed the thickness of the phantom and the tibialis anterior muscle. We found significant differences in force settings for the operators and higher coefficients of variation for the freehand trials. Overall, the automated 3D ultrasound system shows a high accuracy in reconstruction. Due to the smaller coefficients of variation, the automated 3D ultrasound system enables more reproducible ultrasound examinations than the freehand scanning. Therefore, the automated 3D ultrasound system is a reliable tool for 3D investigations of skeletal muscle.

Published: June 2023

In a linear economy, manufacturing is less costly and more profitable than remanufacturing because of reduced private costs of utilization and production. However, manufacturing also involves higher resource extraction and waste as externalized costs than remanufacturing. We use a vintage capital framework to assess technological innovations in remanufacturing and their potential benefits to society and human occupations. Our study shows that replacing manufacturing with remanufacturing technologies creates positive static and dynamic circular economy externalities. These externalities can be quantified to assess improvements in social outcomes. A smartphone remanufacturing innovation case study is presented as an illustration of the article’s main ideas. Future research should investigate additional specific cases to develop a comprehensive methodology for assessing the impact of remanufacturing innovations on social outcomes. This will provide valuable insights into the broader implications of remanufacturing practices.

With a variety of software and hardware services available to users, cloud computing has developed in recent years as a very influential and transformational technology. It functions as a fundamental method for sharing resources via the internet, with virtualization being essential to making this sharing of cloud resources possible. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has described cloud computing as a concept that permits easy, on-demand network access to a shared pool of reconfigurable computing resources. With little management work or communication with the cloud provider, these resources can be quickly supplied and released. A significant amount of businesses have adopted cloud computing due to the many advantages and opportunities it provides. But the quick shift to the cloud has also given rise to security worries. Cloud computing is one of the modern technology that must to be used with caution. Cloud computing does not come with strong data privacy protections. Therefore, it is very important to ensure the confidentiality of data storage in order to protect data security. The objective of this paper is to discuss about the cloud computing models, the cloud service providers, the security and privacy issues surrounding cloud computing. Furthermore, prevention strategies and best practices for security and privacy issues in cloud computing will also be discussed in this paper. 
MUNPE:Multi-view Uncorrelated Neighborhood Preserving Embedding for unsupervised feature extraction

In order to identify the shared subspace between two views, in Canonical Correlation Analysis (CCA), a popular multi-view dimension reduction technique tries to maximize correlation between the views. Although, there are frequently more than two views in many actual applications, it can only process data with two views. In prior studies, data with more than two viewpoints were managed using either linear correlation or higher degree polynomial correlation. The link between multiview data viewed from diverse perspectives is established by these two types of correlation, that is linear correlation and high order correlation, each of which has a different effect on view consistency. In this paper, we propose a Multi-view Uncorrelated Neighborhood Preserving Embedding (MUNPE), which simultaneously considers two distinct types of correlation to give flexible view consistency. While keeping the local structures of each perspective, the MUNPE also takes into account the complementaries of numerous viewpoints. The MUNPE makes the characteristics gathered by numerous projections for each view uncorrelated in order to get many projections and reduce the duplication of low-dimensional data. Iterative methods are used to resolve the MUNPE, and the algorithm’s convergence has been demonstrated. The testing on the Multiple Feature and other synthetic data sets were successful for MUNPE. It is observed that performance is better than MLPP[1], MSE[2], MLLE[3], GCCA[4], MCCA[5] algorithms.

Inhibitory Effect of Natural Honey on The Growth of Rhizopus stolonifer, Mucor spp., and Aspergillus niger
Authors: Alamer Sarah S. , Abdelkhalig Sozan M.
Published: June 2023

Background: Honey is frequently used as an antiseptic, prophylactic, and therapeutic agent for many infections. The chemical and physical properties of honey have an inhibitory effect on a lot of microorganisms including fungi. Rhizopus stolonifer, Mucor spp., and Aspergillus niger are common indoor molds that contaminate bread and eatable plants. During growth on bread, they multiply and produce large numbers of spores that can cause different types of infections, especially in immunocompromised patients. Objectives: 1) To evaluate the effect of natural honey on the growth of Rhizopus stolonifer, Mucor spp., and Aspergillus niger fungi. 2) To determine the minimal inhibitory concentration of honey that can suppress the growth of these fungi. 3) To assess the possibility of using honey as a natural replacement for chemical preservatives. Methodology: This experimental study was conducted in the College of Sciences at King Saud University between August and November 2021 in Riyadh, KSA. Multifloral honey was diluted in sterile distilled water volume to volume (%, v/v) in series concentrations: 5%, 15%, 30%, 45%, and 60%. The diluted samples of honey were then added to potato dextrose agar (PDA). Measured parts of the colonies of Rhizopus stolonifer, Mucor, and Aspergillus niger, were cultured on the PDA plates with the diluted honey. Two replicates were used for every concentration of each fungus. The inoculated plates, including the controls, were incubated at room temperature (25±2°C). Fungal growth was monitored daily for three months. Results: The 5%, 15%, and 35% concentrations of honey mixed with PDA did not inhibit the fungal growth, the fungi grew within the first 24h while the 60 % dilute concentration killed the three fungi and completely inhibited their growth. The fungi were monitored for 3 months; during that time, there was no growth. In conclusion: This study confirms that honey strongly inhibits the growth of Rhizopus Stolonifer, Mucor spp., and Aspergillus niger when used in a concentration of 60% or above. Accordingly based on these findings we determine that the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of multi-floral honey on bread fungi is 60%.

Introduction: Laparoscopic adrenalectomy (LA) is the gold standard treatment for small adrenal tumor. But the role of laparoscopic adrenalectomy (LA) in a large tumor is still debatable due to risk of technical difficulty and malignant potential. This study was aimed to find out the association of the size of adrenal tumor with safety and efficacy of laparoscopic adrenalectomy in a tertiary level hospital. Objective: To observe the association of the size of adrenal tumor with safety and efficacy of laparoscopic adrenalectomy. Methods: Following convenience sampling 24 patients of adrenal tumor who underwent unilateral transperitoneal LA in the Department of General Surgery, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University, from January 2020 to December 2021 were included and classified by tumor size into 2 groups. Patients in group I had tumor size <5 cm (n = 11) and patient in group II had tumor size ≥ 5 cm (n = 13). Demographic data, perioperative outcomes, complications, and pathologic reports were compared between groups. Data were analyzed with SPSS version 23 and Chi-square (χ2) test and unpaired t test were done to find out the impaction of the size of adrenal tumor with safety and efficacy of laparoscopic adrenalectomy. Result: Average size of the tumour was 3.21±1.17 cm (range 1.5-4.9 cm) for group I, 5.58±0.69 cm (range 5-7 cm) for group II respectively. Operative time was 61.82±12.3 minutes (range 50 to 80 minutes) for group I, 68.08±9.69 minutes (range 55 to 90 minutes) for group II. Estimated blood loss, mean was 47.27±18.62 mL (range 30 to 80 mL) and 71.92±26.26 mL (range 40 to 120 mL) for groups I and II respectively. We observed no complications in groups I and II respectively. Average hospital stay was 5.2±1.8 days (range 3 to 9 days), 5.4±2.1days (range 4 to 12 days) respectively for groups I and II. Operative time and mean hospital stay were not significantly different for group II compared with group I. Conclusion: Laparoscopic transperitoneal ......
