Libyan Desert Glass: New evidence for an extremely high-pressure-temperature impact event from nanostructural study
Authors: Kovaleva Elizaveta , Helmy Hassan , Belkacim Said , Schreiber Anja , Wilke Franziska D.H. , Wirth Richard
Published: November 2022

The origin of Libyan Desert Glass (LDG) found in the western parts of Egypt close to the Libyan border is debated in planetary science. Two major theories of its formation are currently competing: (1) melting by airburst and (2) formation by impact-related melting. While mineralogical and textural evidence for a high-temperature event responsible for the LDG formation is abundant and convincing, minerals and textures indicating high shock pressure have been scarce. This paper provides a nanostructural study of the LDG, showing new evidence of its high-pressure and high-temperature origin. We mainly focused on the investigation of Zr-bearing and phosphate aggregates enclosed within LDG. Micro- and nanostructural evidence obtained with transmission electron microscopy (TEM) are spherical inclusions of cubic, tetragonal, and orthorhombic (Pnma or OII) zirconia after zircon, which indicate high-pressure, high-temperature decomposition of zircon and possibly, melting of ZrO2. Inclusions of amorphous silica and amorphous Al-phosphate with berlinite composition (AlPO4) within mosaic whitlockite and monazite aggregates point at decomposition and melting of phosphates, which formed an emulsion with SiO2 melt. The estimated temperature of the LDG melts was above 2750 °C, approaching the point of SiO2 boiling. The variety of textures with different degrees of quenching immediately next to each other suggests an extreme thermal gradient that existed in LDG through radiation cooling. Additionally, the presence of quenched orthorhombic OII ZrO2 provides direct evidence of high-pressure (>13.5 GPa) conditions, confirming theory 2, the hypervelocity impact origin of the LDG.
Foi lícito o ato peruano de impedir a participação da Venezuela na VIII Cúpula das Américas?
Authors: Cavalcanti Igor de Holanda , Weberbauer Paul Hugo
Published: November 2022

O presente estudo tem por objetivo analisar a legalidade do ato unilateral do governo peruano de retirar o convite ao Estado da Venezuela para participar da VIII Cúpula das Américas realizada em Lima, capital do Peru. Para tanto foi adotada uma abordagem analítica, por meio do método de estudo de caso, valendo-se de pesquisa bibliográfica e documental. Com base na institucionalidade do processo de Cúpula, bem como na Declaração de Quebec de 2001, foram identificados três requisitos para a legalidade de tal ação: 1) a ruptura democrática; 2) realização de consultas, mediante um dos mecanismos hemisféricos, regionais e sub-regionais existentes à época da Declaração de Quebec; 3) decisão tomada pelo consenso dos integrantes do Grupo de Revisão e Implementação da Cúpula – GRIC. No caso em tela, a medida adotada tinha lastro em motivo idôneo, porém foi decidida por quem não tinha a competência para fazê-lo, usurpando a competência específica e exclusiva do GRIC e, com isso, transformou-se em conduta que infringiu o Direito Internacional.
Violência de Estado e trauma: camponeses da Guerrilha do Araguaia
Authors: Gomes Irene , Borges Thelma Pontes
Published: November 2022

O Brasil vivenciou em sua história um longo período ditatorial marcado pela repressão do Estado e supressão de direitos. Um dos atos mais violentos desse momento ficou conhecido como Guerrilha do Araguaia, na qual as Forças Armadas (FFAA) fizeram uma sequência de operações a fim de eliminar os guerrilheiros e qualquer vestígio de um possível levante comunista. Entre as forças do Estado e dos guerrilheiros estavam os camponeses, que foram vítimas das mais diversas violências em razão da crença de sua participação no movimento ou em busca de sua colaboração na captura dos guerrilheiros. Mediante um estudo descritivo-analítico este trabalho visa a fazer uma topologia dos tipos de violências perpetrados sobre os camponeses e a analisar suas reatualizações a partir da não superação do trauma. Para tanto, utilizou-se depoimentos de militares disponíveis em literatura e leitura de processos de camponeses que tramitaram na Comissão da Anistia vinculada ao Ministério de Estado e Justiça (MJ) e ao Ministério da Família, Mulher e Direitos Humanos (MDH). Como resultado, evidenciamos cinco tipos de violência, que vão desde torturas a total extermínio. Concluímos que o sofrimento infligido não cessa de se fazer presente ante a impossibilidade de superação do trauma pela ausência de um projeto de reparação nacional.

Spatial correlation of groundwater pollutants with the vulnerability index in Kano Metropolis, North-western Nigeria
Authors: Babika Zaharatu Mohammed , Tukur Abubakar Ibrahim
Published: November 2022

This study performed a correlation analysis between groundwater quality parameters with organic and inorganic pollutants using the area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristics (ROC) map in Kano Metropolis, North-western Nigeria. The aim is to present the spatial relationship between groundwater pollutants and the existing vulnerability condition of the groundwater resources with a view to developing a vulnerability risk map. Eight water quality parameters (Ca, Al, Cl, NO3, TH, Mg, TDS which include potassium and sodium) and pH were used to develop the water quality index to represent the general overview of the groundwater pollutants. Vulnerability parameters (depth of water, net recharge, aquifer media and groundwater conferment on sensitivity analysis) were used as reference points for preparing ROC. Inorganic pollutants and hydrocarbons representing organic pollutants were integrated into the analysis process with a view to identifying their influence on the groundwater pollution level in the area. The measured AUC under ROC revealed a positive correlation between groundwater vulnerability with organic (63.7%) and inorganic pollutants (65.6%). Vulnerability risk mapping based on hydrocarbon concentration revealed a high level of pollution risk, especially in the core centre of the metropolitan Kano.

HIGHLIGHT

Groundwater pollution and vulnerability studies are one of the key issues in water resources management, especially in areas with a high level of risk of groundwater pollution such as metropolitan areas (Kano Metropolis inclusive) with a high rising population.
Probiotic Formulation Development and Local Application with Focus on Local Buccal, Nasal and Pulmonary Application
Authors: Lima-Engelmann Karola , Schneider Marc
Published: November 2022

These days, probiotics are commonly used in functional foods or as dietary supplements. But its positive effect goes far beyond the digestive tract. Local effects of probiotics are currently being studied intensively. The local effect of probiotics in the oral cavity and in the nose has already been examined in some clinical studies. A local pulmonary effect is also of particular interest. In this case, however, studies were only carried out on animals but already elucidated its potential. Various solid and liquid dosage forms are suitable as vehicles for local application. An improved formulation of probiotic products based on pharmaceutical formulation development might bring many different advantages for the effectiveness and duration of action, but also the stability of the probiotic products. Possibilities for the development of suitable probiotic formulations using different methods are presented and explained in more detail. The aim of this review paper is to provide an overview of the current state of clinical research of local application of probiotics and to present the benefits and opportunities of probiotic formulation development.
Recent Developments in Catecholic Polymers: Polymerization and
Applications
Authors: Moulay Saad
Published: November 2022

Over the last few years, research on catechol-containing polymers has focused mainly
on making mussel-inspired catechol-containing polymers and examining their adhesion ability
onto various substrata under dry and wet conditions. Indeed, a surge of dopamine-bearing vinylic
monomers such as dopamine acrylates and their protected ones have been homopolymerized or
copolymerized with fittingly chosen comonomers for targeted applications. Novel polymerization
methods such as RAFT and ATRP have been gratifyingly employed to realize these polymers
with controlled molecular weights and polydispersity indexes. The protection of hydroxyl groups
of the dopamine-based vinyl derivatives has been achieved with different groups, namely, alkyl,
benzyl, acetal, silyl, and ester. Nevertheless, in several cases, the unprotected dopamine-based vinylic
monomers have been unprecedentedly shown to undergo polymerization with no inhibition
or retardation. Ring-opening polymerization has been applied to copolymerizing several oxiranecontaining
dopamine monomers and catechol-containing monomers with cyclic comonomers with
no major difficulty. Polymers from this method exhibited excellent scaffolds for preparing various
materials with desired functions such as electronic conductivity and adhesion to a wide range of
objects. Catechol and catechol-containing molecules have been subjected to polycondensation
with a number of comonomers, such as formaldehyde, polyamines, polyols, and polyacids, polyisocyanates,
under special conditions. These polycondensation resins have been evaluated mainly
for their adsorption capacity towards heavy metals and dyes for wastewater decontamination. Proteins
antifouling properties of some of these resins have been demonstrated as well. Their special
chemistry allowed their use in realizing metal nanoparticles for different purposes.
Construções contrastivas com “mas”, Contraste Sintagmático e Elipse do TP
Authors: Matos Gabriela , Canceiro Nádia
Published: November 2022

In Portuguese, mas ‘but’ occurs in two different structural constructions, one mainly involving contrast between two non-sentential phrases, Contraste Sintagmático ‘Phrasal Contrast’, and the other contrasting two sentences and presenting ellipsis, TP ellipsis with polarity items. In languages as Spanish and German, contrastive coordination typically correlates two different conjunctions with two constructions exhibiting distinct values, the corrective and the counter-expectation value. Relying on work of the past two decades on adversative coordination with corrective and counter-expectation values, the current paper aims at determining to what extend it is possible to establish a univocal correlation between the values of the adversative coordination and the constructions of Contraste Sintagmático and TP ellipsis in portuguese. It is also our goal to develop a more accurate analysis of these constructions.
Autorreferência generalizadora com a pessoa, uma pessoa e outros nomes humanos referencialmente vagos
Authors: Martins Ana Maria
Published: November 2022

This article analyzes data extracted from the Syntax-oriented Corpus of Portuguese Dialects (CORDIAL-SIN) and Corpus Africa with the aim of demonstrating that the arbitrary/indefinite expressions uma pessoa and a pessoa convey first-person-based genericity, that is, what Moltmann (2010) calls ‘generalizing detached self-reference’. Differences in contextual adequacy between uma pessoa and a pessoa are then discussed using intuitive data. It is suggested that such distributional differences are a consequence of the greater interpretative flexibility of a pessoa (which allows an inclusive or exclusive reading) relative to uma pessoa(which only allows an inclusive reading). Finally, the geolinguistic distribution of uma pessoaand a pessoa in the Portuguese territory is compared to the geolinguistic patterns found for other expressions with human general nouns that also seem to convey generalizing detached self-reference (i.e. homem, fulano, fulana, gajo, tipo, indivíduo, mulher).
Visualização da relevância relativa de investigadores a partir da sua produção textual
Authors: Trigo Luís , Brazdil Pavel
Published: November 2022

Building a researchers affinity network through the automatic processing of their publications allows us to gain a perspective that goes beyond the networks established through co-authorship. The definition of the importance of each researcher is defined upon their bibliographic production volume, i.e., number of publications, and also upon their centrality in the general network of researchers. In fact, the centrality of a researcher in a network reveals its importance in communication flows with other researchers, thus assuming that communication between researchers is itself a relevant factor for organizational life and in its production. Both network and centrality concepts are better interpreted in a graphical way. In this study, we explore the workflow that will provide these visualizations and focus in the empirical selection of the most appropriate centrality measure. We also propose a centrality visualization method that facilitates the interpretation of the selected measures
A pragmática dos dogwhistles algumas questões
Authors: Santos Pedro
Published: November 2022

Dogwhistles are communicative mechanisms for expressing subliminal meanings. In this paper, I take up the distinction, usual in the literature on the topic, between two types of dogwhistle: overt and covert, whereby in the latter, as opposed to the former, the preservation of the subliminal character of the message seems to be a necessary condition for the dogwhistle’s communicative success. I discuss various aspects of this distinction, arguing that both types of dogwhistle can be analysed as conversational implicatures bearing in mind, in particular, the canonical properties of cancelability and calculability.

Authors: Padma R. N. , Aravamudhan N. R.
Published: November 2022

As it relates to the contemporary business world ̧ the importance of the strength in which a firm ́s people identify with an organization cannot be understated. Members who strongly identify with an organization experience an increased “connectedness” with the organization within which they are employed. Hence it becomes essential to enhance organizational identification among employees. An extensive study on the variables that enhances identification reveals that culture and learning practices in an organization stimulates identification. Hence the objective of this study is to explore the impact of culture and learning on different levels of organizational identification. This research employed a survey design ̧ deriving a sample of 378 respondents from 10 Insurance Companies. Multiple Regression analysis and Multiple Discriminant Function Analysis were done to analyze the data. Findings of the study have implications for both the researcher as well as for managers of Insurance Companies.

Published: November 2022

The study aims to identify most prominent factors for fintech adoption by farmers and proposes a conceptual framework on the basis of factors identified. The study finds that perceived risk is the most dominating factor that negatively affects the intention to adopt fintech products and services by farmers globally. Perceived risk and security are the major concerns to adopt fintech services. Other dominating factors are perceived usefulness, trust, perceived ease of use, convenience and social influence. Attitude, perceived risk, perceived value and user innovativeness are the significant mediators used in the literature. Demographic factors like age, gender and experience are the major moderators that strongly affected the association between drivers of fintech and intention to use it. The study also offers a new conceptual framework to enhance adoption of fintech products and services by farmers globally.

Published: November 2022

The present research is aimed at focusing on the impediments that have caused the present pandemic COVID’19 and the possible measures to overcome those impediments from the perspective of spirituality – Indian Vedic Perspectives. It is a mixed method study based on primary and secondary source of information using observation, discussion, and survey methods. A random sample opinion was raised using structured questionnaire on a five point scale in validating the findings as measures to coping with COVID crises. Mean, Standard Deviation, and Correlation measures were used. Majority of respondents (70% and above) have shown their agreement with a mean response of 4.14 on a five point scale about all the scriptural injunctions as measures to cope with COVID’19 crises. A moderate degree of positive association was found between spirituality as best means of recouping back from COVID crises and COVID’19 crises management based on Indian Vedic Scriptural Injunctions. Findings state that the path of perfection gives the strength of life to conquer any kind of material problem whether it is an economic or non-economic in nature. Spirituality can help us to overcome COVID crises as it is the most auspicious thing on this planet of earth. It can be presumed that the spirituality is one of the best ways of managing the COVID crises.
Cardiovascular Comorbidities and Cognitive Impairment
Authors: Dhikav Vikas , Kumar Pankaj , Anand Praveen Kumar
Published: November 2022

Various grades of cognitive impairment generally occur in older adults over the age of 55, where cardiovascular risk factors such as diabetes and/or hypertension, coronary artery disease, or cerebrovascular accidents are also common. Cognitive impairment occurs in various forms, from mild or amnesia such as forgetting today's date to more ominous and progressive forms, such as frank dementia. Over 5 million people worldwide suffer from dementia, most of whom live in low- and middle-income countries. It has been envisaged from the beginning that dementia or cognitive impairment has neurodegenerative origins. However, recent studies have indicated that dementia may have a mixed origin or may be preceded by vascular insult and then neurodegenerative pathology. From a pathophysiological standpoint, one of the puzzling questions in the field of cognitive impairment and comorbidities is that it is not clear whether cardiovascular comorbidity or cognitive impairment comes first. Cognitive impairment negatively affects mobility and fitness and this can potentially contribute to development of hypertension or/and diabetes. The present review examines this perplexing situation and tries to anser whether the comorbid conditions are innocent bystanders to cognitive impairment or they play greater causative roles. The rationale of the review is that it is possible to address these cardiovascular risk factors for dementia prevention and hence it summarizes the evidence related to cardiovascular risk factors and cognitive impairment.
Effects of a Smartphone-Based Out-of-Hospital Screening App for Neonatal Hyperbilirubinemia on Neonatal Readmission Rates and Maternal Anxiety: Randomized Controlled Trial
Authors: Yan Qin , Gong Yanhong , Luo Qing , Yin Xiaoxv , Yang Ling , Wang Honglin , Feng Juan , Xing Kaihui , Huang Yan , Huang Chuican , Fan Lichun
Published: November 2022

Background

Neonatal hyperbilirubinemia is one of the leading causes of neonatal readmission—especially severe hyperbilirubinemia and its complications—and it influences disease burden as well as neonatal and maternal health. Smartphones have been shown to have satisfactory accuracy in screening neonatal bilirubin levels, but the impact of this technology on neonatal health care service and maternal health outcomes is still unknown.

Objective

The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of a smartphone-based out-of-hospital neonatal jaundice screening program on neonatal readmission rates for jaundice and related maternal anxiety.

Methods

This was a 2-arm, unblinded, randomized controlled trial with 30 days of intervention and follow-up periods. From August 2019 to August 2020, healthy mother-infant dyads were recruited on-site from 3 public hospitals in Hainan, China. Intervention group mothers used the smartphone app to routinely monitor neonatal jaundice at home under the web-based guidance of pediatricians. Control group participants received routine care. The primary study outcome was the neonatal readmission rate due to jaundice within 30 days of the first hospital discharge. The secondary outcome was the maternal anxiety score associated with neonatal jaundice. The data were collected through a self-assessed questionnaire. All participants were included in the analysis (intention-to-treat).

Results

In this study, 1424 mother-infant dyads were recruited, comprising 1424 mothers and 1424 newborns. The median age
of the mothers was 29 (IQR 26-32) years, and there were 714 (50.1%) male neonates. These mother-infant dyads were randomly
assigned to the intervention group and the control group, with 712 dyads in each group; only 1187 of these dyads completed the
follow-up. We found that the adjusted 30-day neonatal readmission rate due to jaundice reduced by 10.5% (71/605, 11.7% vs
141/582, 24.2%; 95% CI 5%-15.9%; odds ratio 0.4, 95% CI 0.3-0.5; P<.001) and the relevant maternal anxiety mean score
decreased by 3.6 (95% CI –4.4 to –2.8; β=–3.6, 95% CI –4.5 to –2.8; P<.001) in the intervention group compared to those in the
routine care group.

Conclusions

Our study shows that the smartphone-based out-of-hospital screening method for neonatal hyperbilirubinemia decreased the neonatal readmission rate within 30 days from the first discharge and improved maternal mental health to some degree, thus demonstrating the usefulness of this screening app for follow-up in pediatric care.

Handheld Weights as an Effective and Comfortable Way To Increase Exercise Intensity of Physical Activity in Virtual Reality: Empirical Study
Authors: Polechoński Jacek , Zwierzchowska Anna , Makioła Łukasz , Groffik Dorota , Kostorz Karolina
Published: November 2022

Background

In recent years, there has been a growing interest in active virtual reality games (AVRGs) that provide entertainment and encourage more physical activity (PA). Since playing AVRGs involves primarily arm movements, the intensity of this form of PA may not be sufficient for health benefits. Therefore, it is worth looking for virtual entertainment solutions that are comfortable for users and at the same time increase physical exercise.

Objective

The main objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of external loading of the arms in the form of handheld weights (HHWs) on exercise intensity in users playing a popular AVRG. The results obtained in the study were compared with the PA recommendations for health. The study also assessed the perceptions of the users about the attractiveness and usefulness of this type of exercise and discomfort caused by additional load on the arms.

Methods

The study covered 17 young adults aged 18 to 25 years playing an AVRG (Beat Saber) with no arm load and with HHWs (0.5 kg). A PlayStation 4 PRO console (Sony) with accessories including a head-mounted display and controllers was used in the study. PA intensity was evaluated using a heart rate monitor based on the percentage of maximal heart rate (% HRmax). The usability, attractiveness, and comfort perceived during exercise by users were evaluated using a survey questionnaire.

Results

The measurements showed that the mean % HRmax in participants playing Beat Saber without HHWs was significantly lower (P<.001; Cohen d=1.07) than that observed when playing with HHWs. It should be emphasized that with no additional load, the intensity of PA was low (mean 63.7% HRmax, SD 9.3% HRmax), while with the upper limb load, it increased to a moderate level (mean 67.1% HRmax, SD 10.3% HRmax), which is recommended for health benefits. The survey conducted in the study showed that HHWs (0.5 kg) attached to the wrists did not disturb Beat Saber players.

Conclusions

Since PA in most of the modern AVRGs primarily involves upper limb movements, the use of HHW seems to be a simple and effective way to increase exercise intensity, especially because, as reported by the study participants, such a procedure does not cause discomfort while using the application.
Load-induced Glenohumeral Translation After Rotator Cuff Tears: Protocol of an In Vivo Study (Preprint)
Authors: Croci Eleonora , Eckers Franziska , Nüesch Corina , Aghlmandi Soheila , Kovacs Balazs Krisztian , Genter Jeremy , Baumgartner Daniel , Müller Andreas Marc , Mündermann Annegret
Published: November 2022

BACKGROUND

Rotator cuff tears are a common shoulder injury, yet they sometimes remain undiagnosed as symptoms can be limited. Altered shoulder biomechanics can lead to secondary damage and degeneration. In biomechanical analyses, the shoulder (i.e., the glenohumeral joint) is normally idealised as a ball and socket joint, even though a translation is often observed clinically. To date, no conclusive changes in glenohumeral translation have been reported in patients with rotator cuff tears, and it is unknown how an additional handheld weight comparable to those during daily activities will affect glenohumeral translations in patients with rotator cuff tears.

OBJECTIVE

This study aims to assess the load-induced glenohumeral translation (liTr) in patients with rotator cuff tears and its association with the load-induced changes in muscle activation (liMA).

METHODS

Patients and asymptomatic control subjects will be recruited. Participants will fill out health questionnaires and perform 30° arm abduction and adduction trials while holding different handheld weights of max. 4kg while motion capture and electromyographic data will be collected. In addition, fluoroscopic images of the shoulders will be taken for the same movements. Isometric shoulder muscle strength for abduction and rotation will be assessed with a dynamometer. Finally, shoulder magnetic resonance images will be acquired to assess muscle status and injury presence. The dose-response relationship between additional weight, liTr, and liMA will be evaluated.

RESULTS

Recruitment and data collection started in May 2021 and will last until the recruitment target is achieved. Data collection is expected to be completed by the end of 2022. Data processing and analysis is currently in progress, and the first results are expected to be submitted for publication in 2023.

CONCLUSIONS

This study will contribute to understanding the biological variation in liTr, the influence of disease pathology on liTr, the potential compensation of rotator cuff tears by muscle activation and size, and the association of liTr and patient outcomes. The outcomes will be relevant for diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation planning in patients with rotator cuff tears.

CLINICALTRIAL

Ethical approval was granted by the regional ethics board (Ethics Committee Northwest Switzerland EKNZ 2021-00182), and the study was registered at clinicaltrials.gov (Trial registration number NCT04819724) on March 29, 2021.

Published: November 2022

BACKGROUND

Along with the growth of the mHealth market, several measurement tools have been developed to evaluate the user experience of mHealth apps. However, a universal measurement tool of mHealth apps considering user experience factors is missing.

OBJECTIVE

This study aims to develop and verify the user experience evaluation scale of mHealth apps based on user experience factors proposed in a previous study. In addition, we evaluate and improve the user experience of commercialized mHealth apps based on the developed user experience evaluation scale of mHealth apps.

METHODS

A draft of the measurement tool was developed based on a literature review of questionnaires related to the mHealth app evaluation. The validity of the user experience evaluation scale of mHealth apps was verified through exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis.

RESULTS

Following factor analysis, we derived 16 items conceptually mapped to 5 factors (Ease of Use and Satisfaction, Information Architecture, Usefulness, Ease of Information, and Aesthetic) for the user experience evaluation scale of mHealth apps. Accordingly, a case study to improve mHealth apps was conducted.

CONCLUSIONS

The developed user experience evaluation scale of mHealth apps can help obtain comprehensive user feedback on mHealth apps.

Authors: Jing Yuxi
Published: November 2022

The correlation coefficient f is crucial in the calculation of the absolute diffusion coefficient D, especially for the vacancy mechanism. The current study for f is complex and contains many approximations and assumptions. However, f can be ignored when considering the isotope effect, which has only been stated qualitatively by previous authors and not explained from a quantitative perspective. In this paper, we will explain the reason why f can be neglected in the isotope diffusion effect by finding the most essential formula and source of f, as a way to save the most troublesome step in the calculation of the isotope diffusion effect.

Abstract: Anything that is popular and, on the trend, would be automatically recommended to the customers and non-customers in order to make them buy the product or service and make a purchase. Today's recommendation systems follow the concept that users with comparable browsing and purchase histories would make similar purchases in the future. Either a huge number of historical transactions or comprehensive information on the users' online activity are required for such a system to function. This article provides a descriptive study on how recommendation system on various Cloud Applications is carried out as a marketing strategy. Sample cloud applications of different genres are taken for the primary research. The genres include the Ott platforms, Online Music and E-commerce. A sample size of 150 is taken for the survey as primary research. These platforms differ based on diverse criteria and how the usage of the users vary based on those criteria is taken into consideration. The evaluation method or analysis is done using regression method of various applications based on the criteria provided. Through this we analyse that which application provide better recommendations, which criteria users prefer, which application perform well in recommending a product or service and which application needs to improve their recommendation system.

Abstract: Now-a-days presentations have a significant role in different fields of life. Whether you are a student, an entrepreneur, businessman, or a corporate worker, you must have had given presentations at some point in your life. PowerPoint presentations sometimes become less lively because either you have to use the keyboard to change and operate the slides or use a dedicated gadget to perform these tasks. We aimed to enable people to control the slideshow with the gestures of hands. The applications of gestures in human-computer interaction have massively risen in the past few years. The research has tried to control different operations of the PowerPoint slideshow through gestures. This research has used Machine Learning to detect gestures with subtle differences and tried to map them with some fundamental PowerPoint slideshow controlling functions using Python. This project make the work of the presenter quite easy.

Published: November 2022

Abstract: Great results are emerging subsequently from the isolation and characterization of graphene and have resulted in increasing interest in two-dimensional (2D) materials that are different from their three-dimensional (3D) analogues. Over the past decade, science-inclined researchers have invested in the synthesis of novel MXenes with combined transition metals forming a compound of the MAX phase family. MXenes, a derivative of MAX phase is a class of novel two-dimensional (2D) transition metal containing carbide/nitride with a Mn+1AXn formula. Due to their unique physical, electronic, chemical, and structural properties, it has been utilized in the membrane, adsorption, and separation technique, respectively. Additionally, due to their surface reactivity, adsorption ability, and hydrophilicity, MXenes have revealed broad application prospects such as sensors, metal-ion batteries, environment, and catalysis. Although several works have been carried out and are still on-going in this area, copper-based MXenes are rare class of MXenes. In this review, we provide an overview of preparation, properties and applications of Copper-based MXenes reported in literature.

transformative potential of immersive experiences within role-playing communities
Authors: Bowman Sarah Lynne , Baird Josephine
Published: November 2022

Analog role-playing games provide an avenue for players to explore a diversity of experiences and self-concepts by playing out new roles in a co-created fictional reality. This article provides a theoretical framework for this process, discussing the nature of consensus reality as a force that can suppress forms of identity expression that individuals find authentic. We discuss how live action role-playing (larp) and tabletop games can provide transformational containers, where individuals can explore new ways of being, relating, and enacting beliefs through the experience of increased agency. As an example, we discuss our larp, Euphoria, which was designed as a role-playing game environment reflecting queer performance spaces within which participants can express gender and sexual identities that feel more authentic.
