Authors:   Residential Environment Institute Of Korea, Lee Jae hee , Kim Hye lim , Kim Nam-hoon
Published: February 2023

The purpose of this study is to analyze the comprehensive performance indicators of urban regeneration projects and the performance of existing business districts, check the reality of urban regeneration projects according to smart indicators, and propose roles for policy change for smart urban regeneration. To analyze the performance of urban regeneration projects, eight indicators that can be obtained from public data were used among the comprehensive urban regeneration performance indicators of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, and the application of smart elements was also evaluated. As a result, it was planned to promote unit projects and install facilities for smart elements, and in the case of Jinju Seongbuk District, it can be seen that it is planned as a specialized project from this project. As a result of expert surveys and AHP analysis on detailed indicators related to smart urban regeneration, indicators in the administrative field were analyzed to be very important, but there are currently no indicators or systems that can be applied in the administrative field. In this study, the following research conclusions were presented. First, metropolitan and basic local governments need to prepare institutions for the systematic promotion of urban regeneration projects. Second, it is necessary to establish close governance of the government-wide and basic local governments-intermediate support organizations for the continuous promotion of smart urban regeneration projects. Third, local universities and research institutes need to develop and propose guidelines for the application of smart urban regeneration projects suitable for regional status.
Effect of FM Operation Manual Experience on Workers’ Work Competency and Asset Management: Effect Verification Using Structural Equation Multi-Group Analysis
Authors:   Residential Environment Institute Of Korea, Kim Tae gyu , Jeong Jun ho , Lee Kang yong
Published: February 2023

The purpose of this study is to classify FM workers into an experience group and an awareness group, and to verify the effects of workers' work competency and asset management on non-residential building operation manuals. For this purpose, the FGI composition consisted of a team leader of a facility management company and site managers, and 208 people in the operation manual experience group and 65 people in the awareness group were verified by structural equation multi-group analysis. As a result of the verification, first, meaningful analysis results were found in the experience group rather than the recognition group about the work performance and work efficiency of workers. And the safety management operation manual was found to have no significance. This has implications for owners and tenants. Second, in the experience group and the perception group, the significance of the education and training of workers in the work achievement and work efficiency is high. This means that effective education and training should be provided to workers continuously. Third, it was found that the operation manual experience group had a more significant influence on the asset management effect than the perception group. The academic significance of this study is that it is the first attempt to analyze the difference between the group that actually experienced the FM operation manual and the group that perceived it. In practice, it is said that it is necessary to introduce an effective operation manual in the asset management of building facilities.
Construction of the planar vector fields with nonsimple critical point of prescribed topological structure
Authors: Volkov S. V.
Published: February 2023

The problem of constructing n-linear (n 2) plane vector elds with isolated critical point and given separatrices of prescribed types is considered. Such constructions are based on the use of vector algebra, the qualitative theory of second-order dynamic systems and classical methods for investigating their critical points. This problem is essentially an inverse problem of the qualitative theory of ordinary di erential equations, and its solution can be used to synthesize mathematical models of controlled dynamical systems of various physical nature.

Egalitarianism in the Qur'an: Dialectics of Concept and Reality
Authors: Latif Hamdiah
Published: February 2023

The issue of equity and equality between men and women is one of the most serious problems and challenges that Muslims have faced in the modern era. Islam and Muslims are not only challenged to prove that their doctrine, as mentioned in the Qur’an and Sunnah, shows that egalitarianism is their main value, but they also should prove it in real life. However, it must be demonstrated not only through normative means as mentioned in its doctrine or history, but also by answering many contemporary challenges to the concept of equality between men and women today. This article examines the concept of egalitarianism from an Islamic perspective as found in the Qur'an.By using library research methods, it examines the further meaning of egalitarianism from an Al-Qur'anic perspective.
Uslub: Questions and Answers in the Qur’an
Authors: Suhaimi Suhaimi
Published: February 2023

One of the uslubs or language styles mentioned in the Quran for expressing its sacred messages is question and answer (sual wa jawab), where a question is followed by its answer. This style of language has certainly attracted the attention of many parties, especially the scholars of the Quran, or mufassirin, whose thoughts and expertise are in direct contact with the holy words, as well as Arabic linguists, especially those related to balaghah. Scholars' perspectives on revealing the secrets of these questions and answers differ according to their scientific backgrounds, but all of them appear to be urgent in order to strengthen our awareness of the truth of the Divine Word that Allah revealed to His Messenger Muhammad (peace be upon him). The questions and answers (uslub) implicitly seem like an extremely important style or learning method to be applied in communicating with other parties. Among the forms of questions and answers (uslub) in the Qur'an that are interesting to observe is "uslub al-hakim," which is literally interpreted as the style of a wise man. This article discusses some of the general characteristics of usul al-Quran.It also describes specific types of Quranic questions and answers. Hence, it aims to be a blessing for us in this life.

Humour in Islam: A Philosophy Study of Humour
Authors: Syarifuddin Syarifuddin
Published: February 2023

Hadith is the second source of Islamic law after the Quran. Hadith was sourced from an interpretation of the practices of the deeds, words, and actions of Rasulullah SAW, as well as the application of Islamic teachings that are carried out in a factual and ideal manner. Muslims are expected to follow, apply, and practice it in their daily lives. Life needs humour; even humour and laughter are human nature that God has destined for humans. Humour is permissible in Islam; many texts of the Qur'an and Hadith allow it, and even the Prophet himself often joked and laughed with his companions. There are several reasons that the Messenger of Allah allowed reasonable humour, among them: being within limits and natural, not having lies, not insulting or slighting fellow Muslims, being far from fear and threats, knowing and being fit for the situation and conditions, and being within acceptable limits of common sense.

Blood Collection Guidelines and Techniques in Small Laboratory Animals for Biomedical Research: A Systematic Review
Authors: Port Louis Leena Rajathy , Nagarajan Prithiviraj , Balakrishnan Ramajayam Asokan
Published: February 2023

Venipuncture, phlebotomy, or blood collection is a specific and important procedure for collecting samples from research animals. Many research techniques require multiple blood samples to analyze the data. In truth, laboratory rodents are smaller in size and have a relatively low blood volume compared to humans. Any major reduction in blood volume would have an extreme consequence on the animal’s biology. Consequently, the safe amount of blood samples that can be obtained from an animal and the frequency of safe blood collection are the two extremely important factors to consider for protecting the health and welfare of the animals. Because stress to the study animal affects the research outcome, the techniques used should allow blood sampling while diminishing the potential for pain, suffering, avoidable stress, or unexpected results in the study animal. Several regulatory bodies have issued guidelines for collecting blood from study animals. Information on general blood collection guidelines and the different blood collection sites in laboratory animal species are scattered across various literature. This review presents a consolidated data on all the guidelines and precautions involved in blood sampling from small laboratory animals. Using suitable keywords, reference documents were collected from online databases like PubMed, Embase, Scopus, Medline and Google Search. However, researchers are the better judges in choosing the right blood collection method to use in their study, keeping in mind the welfare and health of their research animals.

Perceived Value of Osteopathic Recognition
Authors: Maier Russell , Weaver Jennifer , Ginoza Jeremy A. , Meyer Daniel , Gothard David
Published: February 2023

Background and Objectives: In 2020 the Accreditation Council on Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) became the sole accrediting body for osteopathic and allopathic residency programs, with an option for programs to apply for Osteopathic Recognition (OR) to distinguish their training in osteopathic principles and practice. There is limited research regarding this transition. The goal of our study was to assess the perceived value of OR and perceived difficulty of obtaining OR for family medicine residency programs.
Methods: We performed analyses regarding the difficulty of obtaining OR status and the value of OR and Osteopathic Principles and Practice (OPP) using questions on the 2020 Council of Academic Family Medicine Educational Research Alliance (CERA) omnibus survey.
Results: Of the 280 program directors (PD) responding, 69 (24.6%) had OR status, 126 (45.0%) were considering applying or would apply if needed resources were available, and 85 (30.4%) were not considering OR. Of the 73 PDs reporting on experience with the OR process, 28 (38.4%) found it “very smooth,” 30 (41.1%) found it “a little bumpy,” and 15 (20.5%) found it “very bumpy”; 87.0% of PDs (60 of 69) with OR felt it had value in recruiting DO students and 31.8% (22/69) in recruiting MD students; 86.9% of programs with OR status perceived OPP to be somewhat or very valuable in enhancing patient satisfaction compared to 77% of those considering OR and 44.7% not considering OR.
Conclusions: Program directors perceive value in OR status for recruiting and in osteopathic practice for patient care. Since 75.4% of responding program directors have or are interested in achieving OR status, further research is needed on its benefits and barriers.

O IMPACTO DO USO DA TERRA SOBRE O BALANÇO HÍDRICO NA BACIA HIDROGRÁFICA DO RIO SANTA MARIA – OESTE DO RIO GRANDE DO SUL – BRASIL
Authors: Trentin Romário , Laurent François , Robaina Luís Eduardo de Souza
Published: February 2023

O uso da terra encontra-se em fase de transformação rápida no Rio Grande do Sul. As grandes transformações nas formas de uso da terra têm contribuído significativamente para a mudança do balanço hídrico e, consequentemente, da vazão dos cursos d’água. O presente trabalho tem como objetivo analisar o efeito que a ocupação da terra, tem sobre o balaço hídrico na bacia hidrográfica do Rio Santa Maria. Essa bacia possui uma área de 14.913 km² e está localizada na porção sudoeste do estado do Rio Grande do Sul, região sul do Brasil, situando-se na divisa com o Uruguai, compondo uma significativa área do Bioma Pampa. A metodologia é baseada no modelo hidrológico SWAT (Soil & Water Assessment Tool), com um cálculo do balanço hídrico em relação ao clima, ao solo, à declividade, à cobertura vegetal, associados em unidades de resposta hidrológica, em equações de transferência do escoamento no aquífero e na rede hidrológica. Os resultados mostram que a contribuição é bastante diferenciada entre as culturas e as pastagens presentes na bacia, visto que, além das contribuições específicas das características dos solos e da declividade da bacia, a forma de manuseio das culturas possibilita grandes diferenças quanto às características dos elementos do balanço hídrico. As transformações do uso, com a mudança das áreas de campos nativos para as áreas de lavouras de soja ou arroz, ou ainda de silvicultura, tende a apresentar um significativo impacto no balanço hídrico da bacia.

Published: February 2023

Non-invasive sensory stimulation in the range of the brain’s gamma
rhythm (30-100 Hz) is emerging as a new potential therapeutic strategy
for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Here we investigated the
effect of repeated combined exposure to 40 Hz synchronized sound and
light stimuli on hippocampal long-term potentiation (LTP) in vivo in
three rat models of early AD. We employed a very complete model of AD
amyloidosis, amyloid precursor protein (APP)-overexpressing transgenic
McGill-R-Thy1-APP rats at an early pre-plaque stage, systemic treatment
of transgenic APP rats with corticosterone modelling certain
environmental AD risk factors and, importantly, intracerebral injection
of highly disease-relevant AD patient-derived synaptotoxic beta-amyloid
and tau in wild-type animals. We found that daily sessions of 40 Hz
sensory stimulation fully abrogated the inhibition of LTP in all three
models. Moreover, there was a negative correlation between the magnitude
of LTP and the level of active caspase-1 in the hippocampus of
transgenic APP animals which suggests that the beneficial effect of 40
Hz stimulation was dependent on modulation of pro-inflammatory
mechanisms. Our findings support ongoing clinical trials of
gamma-patterned sensory stimulation in early AD.

Published: February 2023

Aim: Sarcopenia is associated with poor prognosis in adult
oncologic patients, with little evidence of this association in
pediatric population, including hepatoblastoma. Methods:
Retrospective study in patients with hepatoblastoma, divided into those
with or without sarcopenia. Sarcopenia was assessed by measuring psoas
muscle area (PMA) at L4-L5 level on the CT/MR and defined as z-score
values ≤2. Relapse and mortality were analyzed. Results:
Twenty-one patients (57.1% male) were included, with median age 35.7
months (IQR: 23.5-58.5). Seven (33.3%) had sarcopenia on initial
studies compared to 14 (66.7%) who did not. No differences were found
between groups in age, weight, PRETEX, surgical treatment or
a-fetoprotein levels. Twelve (57.1%) underwent liver resection and 9
(42.9%) liver transplantation. Sarcopenia was associated with a higher
rate of metastases at diagnosis (49.2% vs 0.0%; p=0.026) and surgical
complications (57.1% vs 21.4%, p=0.047). After a median follow-up of
65.1 months (1.7-144.8), 2 patients (28.6%) had tumor relapse in
sarcopenic group compared to 1 (7.1%) in non-sarcopenic group. Two
patients died in sarcopenic group and 1 in non-sarcopenic group. Median
event-free survival (EFS) was lower in sarcopenic group
(100.38±25.63vs118.91±11.52 months) as well as overall survival (OS)
(101.72±24.86 vs 121.78±8.75 months) with no statistical significance.
Five-year EFS was also lower in sarcopenic group (71%vs93%) as well as
5-year OS (71%vs87%). Conclusions: Sarcopenia at diagnosis
was associated with a higher rate of metastases and surgical
complications in hepatoblastoma. Our data shows the first evidence of
its role as a possible poor prognostic factor, influencing survival and
risk of relapse.
DIA-based proteomics analysis of the protective effect of EGCG on cyclophosphamide-induced testicular injury in mice
Authors: Chunyan Fang
Published: February 2023

Cyclophosphamide (CP) impacts several types of normal and healthy
tissues, especially reproductive organ. The current work sought to
investigate the preventive role of the green tea ingredient
epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) against CP-induced testicular damage
in mice. Thirty mature male mice were randomly allocated to three groups
(n=10). Group 1 functioned as the control. Group 2 was administered Mod
with CP (50mg/kg/d) for five days. Group 3 received CP (50mg/kg/d) for 5
days and EGCG (80mg/kg/d) for the following 30 days. The findings
demonstrated that EGCG enhanced testicular mass and indix. Evaluation of
Histology and Transmission Electron microscopy analysis revealed that
EGCG treatment mitigated CP-induced injury to testicular structures such
spermatogonial cells and seminiferous tubules. A proteomics
investigation of testis revealed that EGCG administration substantially
affected the quantity of 863 proteins. GO and KEGG analysis revealed
that these proteins were mostly found throughout development cell grouth
and PI3K-Akt signaling pathway. The PPI network analysis and RT-PCR
results showed that Cdk1, Kif11, and Aurka may be the targets for EGCG.
This is the first study to indicate the preventive role of EGCG on
CP-induced testicular damage, and EGCG might be a natural active
ingredient for tolerance to the testis toxicity generated by CP.
Photoelectronic Properties Regulation in Lead-Free (NH4)xCs3-xCu2I5 Perovskites Through Ammonium Doping Strategy
Authors: Xu Ze , Jiang Linqin , Xiong Hao , Wen Jiansen , Li Ping , Lin Lingyan , Wu Bo , Yang Aijun , Qiu Yu
Published: February 2023

As a composition-modulation strategy, NH4+-doped (NH4)xCs3-xCu2I5
(0≤x≤3) perovskites using NH4I as the dopant were successfully
synthesized via eco-friendly ball milling method in this work. As the
ammonium content increases, the lattice constants of (NH4)xCs3-xCu2I5
shrink and the grain sizes increase. The doping of NH4+ effectively
passivates the lattice defects, suppresses the non-radiative
recombination and tunes the energy band structure, resulting in better
fluorescence properties. Among doped and undoped Cs3Cu2I5,
(NH4)0.6Cs2.4Cu2I5 and (NH4)0.9Cs2.1Cu2I5 exhibit the highest
fluorescence intensity at 450 nm, with an absolute 12.2% improvement in
the photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) compared with that of pure
Cs3Cu2I5. Finally, the UV-pumped deep-blue LEDs based on
(NH4)xCs3-xCu2I5 phosphors were fabricated, showing improved performance
and tunable emission spectra. These results demonstrate the potential of
inorganic NH4+-doping strategy for improving the performance of
lead-free perovskite optoelectronics.

Eulerian fractions and Stirling, Bernoulli and Euler functions with complex order parameters and their impact on the polylogarithm function
Authors: Butzer Paul , He Tian-Xiao , Markett Clemens
Published: February 2023

We first study some generalizations of Eulerian fractions with complex order parameter and investigate their interrelationship with likewise generalized Eulerian functions as well as Stirling functions. We apply the new approach to polylogarithms of non-integral order, for which only a few values are known in closed form. In particular, we present a structural solution of the counterpart of an old conjecture of Mengoli and Euler in the polylogarithm case with the aid of Riemann?s zeta function and the Dirichlet eta and beta functions.

Published: February 2023

Here we consider a sequence of positive numbers ? = {?k}k?Zn with ?0 = 1,
and assume that there exists 0 < r ? 1 such that for each i = 1, 2,...,
n and k = (k1,..., kn) ? Zn, we have r ? ?k ?k+?i ? 1 if ki ? 0, and r ?
?k+?i ?k ? 1 if ki < 0. For such a weight sequence ?, we define the weighted
sequence space L2(Tn, ?) to be the set of all f (z) = P k?Zn akzk for which
P k?Zn |ak|2?2k < ?. Here T is the unit circle in the complex plane, and for
n ? 1, Tn denotes the n-Torus which is the cartesian product of n copies of
T. For ? ? L?(Tn, ?), we define the slant weighted Toeplitz operator A? on
L2(Tn, ?) and establish several properties of A?. We also prove that A?
cannot be hyponormal unless ? ? 0.

Introduction/Objective. Studies about possibilities of conservative, i.e., non-operative management of acute uncomplicated appendicitis in adult and pediatric population have been published lately, considering benefits of preserving appendix and potential complications related to appendectomy. Methods. In this retrospective study, medical data of 76 patients treated at the Institute for Child and Youth Health Care of Vojvodina in Novi Sad for acute uncomplicated appendicitis in 2015 and 2016 have been analyzed, comparing length of stay, antibiotic therapy use, complications occurrence, as well as the financial burden depending of the type of therapy applied. Results. During this period, 76 patients (55 operated on and 21 treated conservatively) were treated for acute uncomplicated appendicitis. Conservatively treated children spent statistically significantly shorter period of time at the hospital compared to the ones operated on (4.24 vs. 5.76 days; p < 0.001). Early surgical complications occurred in 10.91% of those operated on and in 9.52% conservatively treated children, which was not a statistically significant difference (p = 0.863). The total cost of hospital stay was significantly lower in those who underwent non-operative management (10,340 RSD vs. 54,281 RSD; p < 0.001). The difference was significant even when analyzing costs related to rehospitalization and operative treatment of children initially treated conservatively (p < 0.001). Conclusion. Non-operative, i.e., conservative treatment of acute uncomplicated appendicitis in the pediatric population is safe and effective compared to the operative one, and it is not associated with more frequent occurrence of early surgical complications. Total costs for the non-operative treatment are significantly lower, even considering costs related to re-hospitalization of children initially treated conservatively.

Published: February 2023

In this paper melting of a carreau non-Newtonian PCM in the space between two concentric horizontal tubes, which is partially filled with porous material with different shapes but same area, is investigated numerically. A magnetic source is located in the center of the geometry for melting process of PCM to occur in the presence of ferro-hydrodynamic effects. Porous material is made of Cu that covers the cross-section of the inner tube. In addition, the space between inner and outer tubes is saturated with paraffin-wax PCM. Flow of melted paraffin-wax is considered as a Carreau non-Newtonian, laminar and incompressible flow with viscous dissipation that is evaluated in a specific time interval. Boussinesq approximation is valid for the PCM. Also local thermal equilibrium condition is assumed between the porous and the PCM. Galerkin finite element method has been utilized to solve the problem. Results showed that melting rate is higher for the third model in comparison other models. Also effects of the magnetic number depends on the shape of the porous medium. Therefore, that increase in the magnetic number, increasingly enhances the progress of the melting front in the second case. Moreover, effects of Carreau index, Stefan number, and porosity on the melting process are studied.

Published: February 2023

With the development of computer technologies and battery systems, mobile robot systems have gained an important place in our lives. The Li-ion batteries, which attract attention for portable applications due to their high power output, light weight, and no memory effect, must operate in a limited temperature range in order to operate safely and for a long application life. This case makes it necessary to use battery thermal control systems that will provide temperature control for Li-ion battery applications. Within the scope of our study, Li-ion battery thermal management systems were investigated in detail. A detailed literature review was carried out on air thermal management systems, with their application and systemic convenience. Due to restricted packaging space for battery in mobile robots, cooling will be more challenging in the future. The air thermal management system, which has limited thermal management capability due to the low thermal properties of the air, is a thermal management method that will be sufficient especially for low scale applications.
How green finance affects automobile innovation?: The perspective of lasso-based multi-mediation effect

Published: February 2023

The world has been working towards carbon neutrality since the signing of the Paris Agreement. With the automobile industry accounting greatly in global energy consumption and GHG emissions, this research believes that it is essential and urgent to reduce carbon emissions through innovation. However, the process of transfer comes with the economic loss and the cost of financing. Green finance could soften the cost of the process of transfer. This sheds new light on how green finance influence innovation in automobile industry by applying Lasso machine learning methods to choose variables. Based on global data from 2018-2020, results of this empirical research show that: there are significant contributions of green finance to automobile innovation, in particular, the marginal benefits are greater in countries on the coast than in the lock-landed countries, carbon neutrality can be looked as the benchmark of the anchoring effect to ?nudge? the process of green finance on automobile innovation, and the mechanism behind the effect is the amount of population, human resources, GDP, which provides further enhancement on the process of green finance to automobile innovation. Based on the findings, this study suggests that policymakers should scale up investments in green finance to encourage it to have a greater impact on automobile innovation, while using carbon neutrality targets to ?nudge? the effects of green finance, with vital opportunities for lock-landed countries and the value of population, human resources, and GDP taken into consideration.

A field experiment was conducted on maize (Zea mays L.) during rabi (November to February), 2018–19 to study the effect of drip fertigation of Nitrogen (N), Potassium (K) and microbial consortium (MC) on growth, yield, water productivity and economics at Water Technology Centre, PJTSAU, Hyderabad, Telangana state, India. The experiment was laid out in randomised block design and replicated thrice. The treatments, comprising of two fertility levels viz., 75% and 100% recommended dose (RD) of N and K as first factor and biofertigation of Microbial Consortium (MC) as second factor. The interaction effect between RD of N and K and biofertigation of MC was not significant. Significantly higher LAI, DMP, grain yield and water productivity was recorded with fertigation of 100% RD N and K compared to 75% RD N and K. Biofertigation of MC 5 times and 3 times recorded significantly higher LAI, DMP, grain yield and water productivity. Net returns recorded with fertigation of 75% and 100% RD of N and K were not significantly different. Among biofertigation of MC, significantly higher net returns were observed in biofertigation of MC five times and was on par with biofertigation of MC three times. 75% RD of N and K recorded higher B:C ratio and was on par with 100% RD N and K in fertigation levels. Among biofertigation of MC, there was no significant difference in B:C ratio was observed between biofertigation of MC five times and three times and were significantly superior over soil application of MC.

Logged-over natural forest has a different stand structure and composition from primary natural forest due to logging activities. This study aimed to examine forest dynamics (upgrowth, ingrowth, and mortality) of the logged-over forest in PT. Tunas Timber Lestari (TTL) Papua in both stands with and without treatments. The data used in this study were based on the measurement in the Permanent Measurement Plots (PUP) for ten years. This study grouped data into five diameter classes of 10 cm intervals and three wood species groups (meranti timber, mixed timber, and non-commercial timber). Data analysis was carried out by forming a stand structure model and calculating the rate of ingrowth, upgrowth, and mortality. The stand structure model for each species group in stands with treatment had a significant R² value compared to those without treatment. The average ingrowth rate in the stands with treatment was smaller than without treatment. The values of upgrowth varied with the increase in diameter classes for both stands with and without treatments. The mortality rate in stands without treatment tended to be higher, especially in mixed timber and non-commercial timber groups. In contrast, in the meranti timber group, the mortality rate mostly occurred in the stands with treatment. The stand structure models resulting in this study can be used as important information in determining appropriate silvicultural options for forest stands.
