Authors: Neri Alessandro , Hummel Ferdinand , Benalia Souraya , Zimbalatti Giuseppe , Gabauer Wolfgang , Mihajlovic Ivana , Bernardi Bruno
Published: May 2024

The dairy and meat industries generate thousands of tons of organic waste and by-products each year, making them two of the least environmentally sustainable sectors. Typical waste includes not only processing by-products such as curds but also commercial products that are defective or unsaleable due to expiration or damaged packaging. This study aimed to evaluate the methanogenic potential of a mixture of 80% inedible curds and 20% expired sausages, as a substrate, using two continuously stirred tank reactors (CSTR). The reactors were fed daily with increasing doses of the 80–20% mixture and an organic loading rate ranging from 0.31 gVS/litre/day at the beginning of the trials to 7.20 gVS/litre/day toward the end. The produced biogas was continuously analysed from both quantitative and qualitative point of view. Also, the process was continuously monitored by withdrawing samples from each reactor during the whole process, to analyse their physical–chemical parameters, including pH, total solids (TS), total volatile solids (TVS), chemical oxygen demand (COD), ammonium nitrogen (NH4+-N), total Kjeldahl nitrogen (TKN) and total volatile fatty acids (VFA). The results of this study show a promising increase in biogas production with the increase in feed. In terms of biogas production, organic waste from the dairy and meat industry shows the potential to be exploited as a substrate to produce biomethane. Indeed, in this study, biomethane cumulative production reached 410.86 NLCH4∙gTVS−1 using an 8 L capacity reactor filled up to 6 L. This makes the tested by-products usable as a renewable energy source in the future, particularly within a circular economy approach, helping to mitigate the effects of global warming and addressing sustainable development goals.
Does Corporate Behavior Related to the Overseas Market Promote Enterprises’ Green Transformation?—Evidence from China
Authors: Li Zezhong , Zhou Qian
Published: May 2024

Behavior related to the overseas market has become an essential method for enterprises to acquire international resources. We aimed to do so using a difference-in-differences (DID) approach with the collected data of companies from China’s high-polluting industries in the A-share market between 2011 and 2019. The present papers aims to find the influence of the behavior towards the enterprises’ green transformation. The research results showed the following: (1) The behavior related to the overseas market not only increased enterprises’ environmental protection investment but also promoted enterprises’ green technology innovation, which promoted enterprises’ green transformation. (2) The mechanism analysis shows that corporate investment in protection of the environment increased mainly through the improved consciousness for the responsibility of environment, while corporates’ green technology innovation not only requires the increased awareness for environmental responsibility but also requires enterprises to learn advanced environmental protection methods and knowledge. (3) The role of the behavior related to the overseas market in promoting the green transformation of enterprises was more obvious in state-owned enterprises, and the enterprises with relatively better business performance were more enthusiastic about green technology innovation because of the motivation of advantage creation; thus, the promoting effect of the behavior related to the overseas market on the enterprises’ green transformation was more obvious. This paper provides empirical evidence and policy implications to help promote the green transformation of enterprises.
Virtual Reality-Based Digital Landscape Experience and Climate Change Monitoring: Evidence from Human Thermal Comfort
Authors: Lin Zhengsong , Wang Xue , Yuan Jihui , Gui Yuhui
Published: May 2024

With the frequent occurrence of extreme weather in various parts of the world, people have begun to reflect on the scientific rationality of the means of global climate change governance. How to effectively respond to the hazards caused by extreme weather remains a hot issue of concern to the international community. In this paper, taking the function of plant carbon sequestration and oxygen release, which can regulate human thermal comfort as an entry point, we use virtual reality (VR) to construct a digital scene and invite subjects to conduct behavioral experiments in order to assess human thermal comfort. The experimental results indicate that participants’ subjective evaluations of virtual and real environments are consistent with changes in heart rate variability (HRV), validating the reliability of using virtual environments to study thermal perception. The study also found a significant correlation between HRV and the wet bulb globe temperature (WBGT) index, which both measure human thermal comfort. This suggests that when the WBGT changes due to microclimate variations, HRV changes accordingly. The negative correlation between plant carbon sequestration oxygen release capacity and HRV further supports this view. It also indicates that human thermal comfort can provide feedback on microclimate change trends, and that accurate monitoring of the microclimate is more conducive to assessing the progress of climate warming. This study demonstrates the association between human comfort and microclimate change, discusses the validity of human thermal comfort metrics in climate monitoring, and provides new perspectives for solving the global climate crisis.
Assessment of Economic, Environmental, and Technological Sustainability of Rural Sanitation and Toilet Infrastructure and Decision Support Model for Improvement
Authors: Wu Simei , He Bao-Jie
Published: May 2024

Sanitation and toilets are important infrastructure for public health and societal stability. However, the adoption of adequate treatment technologies and techniques is a major challenge for both developing and underdeveloped areas. Answering the question of how to improve sanitation and toilet infrastructure in rural areas, for poverty alleviation, inequality mitigation, and good health and well-being under the Sustainable Development Goals, is more challenging compared with urban areas. Decision support models (DSMs) are important for selecting rural sanitation and toilet technologies. However, previous models have not fully respected local standards, needs, and operational environments, and are mainly limited to technological sustainability performance. To overcome such research gaps, this study developed a rural sanitation and toilet technology decision support model (DSM) assessing economic, environmental, and technological sustainability. Both technology and village weighting methods based on 217 general experts and seven local residents, respectively, were adopted to fully tailor indicator weights to rural contexts. The results showed an economic sustainability weight of 0.205, an environmental sustainability weight of 0.466, and a technological sustainability weight of 0.329. The sanitation and toilet technologies were divided into wastewater treatment technologies and toilet technologies, with the former subdivided into primary, secondary, and tertiary wastewater treatment technologies. This study confirmed that the PSO-GWO algorithm outperformed in accuracy and effectiveness. Accordingly, the PSO-GWO algorithm was adopted to demonstrate the optimization of sanitation and toilet technologies in four villages in plateau, mountain, plain, and basin areas. The study can assist local governments in selecting appropriate rural sanitation and toilet technologies during the planning phase. This can enhance the living standards of rural residents and promote sustainable rural development.
An Adaptive Search Algorithm for Multiplicity Dynamic Flexible Job Shop Scheduling with New Order Arrivals
Authors: Ding Linshan , Guan Zailin , Luo Dan , Rauf Mudassar , Fang Weikang
Published: May 2024

In today’s customer-centric economy, the demand for personalized products has compelled corporations to develop manufacturing processes that are more flexible, efficient, and cost-effective. Flexible job shops offer organizations the agility and cost-efficiency that traditional manufacturing processes lack. However, the dynamics of modern manufacturing, including machine breakdown and new order arrivals, introduce unpredictability and complexity. This study investigates the multiplicity dynamic flexible job shop scheduling problem (MDFJSP) with new order arrivals. To address this problem, we incorporate the fluid model to propose a fluid randomized adaptive search (FRAS) algorithm, comprising a construction phase and a local search phase. Firstly, in the construction phase, a fluid construction heuristic with an online fluid dynamic tracking policy generates high-quality initial solutions. Secondly, in the local search phase, we employ an improved tabu search procedure to enhance search efficiency in the solution space, incorporating symmetry considerations. The results of the numerical experiments demonstrate the superior effectiveness of the FRAS algorithm in solving the MDFJSP when compared to other algorithms. Specifically, the proposed algorithm demonstrates a superior quality of solution relative to existing algorithms, with an average improvement of 29.90%; and exhibits an acceleration in solution speed, with an average increase of 1.95%.
Estimation of the Domain of Attraction on Controlled Nonlinear Neutral Complex Networks via Razumikhin Approach
Authors: Yu Hong , Song Yinfang
Published: May 2024

This paper is devoted to dealing with the issue of the estimation of the domain of attraction (DOA) for highly nonlinear neutral complex networks (HNNCNs) with time delays. Firstly, by the Razumikhin approach, we establish several novel lemmas on the estimation of DOA for highly nonlinear neutral differential systems. The cases of bounded non-differentiable delays and unbounded proportional delays are discussed, respectively. Subsequently, by utilizing the proposed lemmas, combining the Lyapunov stability theory and inequality technique, the estimation of DOA on HNNCNs with bounded delays or proportional delays is derived when the chosen control gain is sufficiently large. If initial values start from DOA, then the states of systems will exponentially or polynomially converge to the equilibrium point, which means that the local exponential or polynomial synchronization of HNNCNs is realized. Additionally, the weighted outer-coupling matrix of complex networks is not required to be symmetric, which means that the derived results can be applied to both the undirected networks and directed networks. Finally, several numerical examples are provided to illustrate the feasibility of theoretical findings.
Mechanism of Fumonisin Self-Resistance: Fusarium verticillioides Contains Four Fumonisin B1-Insensitive-Ceramide Synthases
Authors: Krska Tamara , Twaruschek Krisztian , Wiesenberger Gerlinde , Berthiller Franz , Adam Gerhard
Published: May 2024

Fusarium verticillioides produces fumonisins, which are mycotoxins inhibiting sphingolipid biosynthesis in humans, animals, and other eukaryotes. Fumonisins are presumed virulence factors of plant pathogens, but may also play a role in interactions between competing fungi. We observed higher resistance to added fumonisin B1 (FB1) in fumonisin-producing Fusarium verticillioides than in nonproducing F. graminearum, and likewise between isolates of Aspergillus and Alternaria differing in production of sphinganine-analog toxins. It has been reported that in F. verticillioides, ceramide synthase encoded in the fumonisin biosynthetic gene cluster is responsible for self-resistance. We reinvestigated the role of FUM17 and FUM18 by generating a double mutant strain in a fum1 background. Nearly unchanged resistance to added FB1 was observed compared to the parental fum1 strain. A recently developed fumonisin-sensitive baker’s yeast strain allowed for the testing of candidate ceramide synthases by heterologous expression. The overexpression of the yeast LAC1 gene, but not LAG1, increased fumonisin resistance. High-level resistance was conferred by FUM18, but not by FUM17. Likewise, strong resistance to FB1 was caused by overexpression of the presumed F. verticillioides “housekeeping” ceramide synthases CER1, CER2, and CER3, located outside the fumonisin cluster, indicating that F. verticillioides possesses a redundant set of insensitive targets as a self-resistance mechanism.

HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND) are highly prevalent in those ageing with HIV. High-income country data suggest that vascular risk factors (VRFs) may be stronger predictors of HAND than HIV-disease severity, but data from sub-Saharan Africa are lacking. We evaluated relationships of VRFs, vascular end-organ damage and HAND in individuals aged ≥ 50 in Tanzania. c-ART-treated individuals were assessed for HAND using consensus criteria. The prevalence of VRFs and end organ damage markers were measured. The independent associations of VRFs, end organ damage and HAND were examined using multivariable logistic regression. Data were available for 153 individuals (median age 56, 67.3% female). HAND was highly prevalent (66.7%, 25.5% symptomatic) despite well-managed HIV (70.5% virally suppressed). Vascular risk factors included hypertension (34%), obesity (10.5%), hypercholesterolemia (33.3%), diabetes (5.3%) and current smoking (4.6%). End organ damage prevalence ranged from 1.3% (prior myocardial infarction) to 12.5% (left ventricular hypertrophy). Measured VRFs and end organ damage were not independently associated with HAND. The only significant association was lower diastolic BP (p 0.030, OR 0.969 (0.943–0.997). Our results suggest that vascular risk factors are not major drivers of HAND in this setting. Further studies should explore alternative aetiologies such as chronic inflammation.

Published: May 2024

Papaya ringspot virus (PRSV) limits papaya production worldwide. Previously, we generated transgenic lines of hybrid Tainung No.2 (TN-2) carrying the coat protein (CP) gene of PRSV with broad resistance to PRSV strains. Unfortunately, all of them were female, unacceptable for growers and consumers in practical applications. With our reported flanking sequences and the newly released papaya genomic information, the CP-transgene insert was identified at a non-coding region in chromosome 3 of the papaya genome, and the flanking sequences were verified and extended. The female transgenic line 16-0-1 was first used for backcrossing with the parental Sunrise cultivar six times and then followed by selfing three times. With multi-level molecular markers developed from the PRSV CP transgene and the genomic flanking sequences, the presence and zygosity of the CP transgene were characterized at the seedling stage. Meanwhile, hermaphrodite genotype was identified by a sex-linked marker. With homozygotic transgene and horticultural properties of Sunrise, a selected hermaphrodite individual was propagated by tissue culture (TC) and used as maternal progenitor to cross with non-transgenic parental cultivar Thailand to generate a new hybrid cultivar TN-2 with a hemizygotic CP-transgene. Three selected hermaphrodite individuals of transgenic TN were micropropagated by TC, and they showed broad-spectrum resistance to different PRSV strains from Taiwan, Hawaii, Thailand, and Mexico under greenhouse conditions. The selected clone TN-2 #1, with excellent horticultural traits, also showed complete resistance to PRSV under field conditions. These selected TC clones of hermaphrodite transgenic TN-2 provide a novel cultivation system in Taiwan and elsewhere.
Critically Appraised Topic on Canine Leishmaniosis: Does Treatment with Antimonials and Allopurinol Have the Same Clinical and Clinicopathological Efficacy as Treatment with Miltefosine and Allopurinol, after One Month of Treatment?
Authors: García Marina , Ferrer Lluís , Ordeix Laura
Published: May 2024

The treatment of canine leishmaniosis commonly involves meglumine antimoniate with allopurinol or miltefosine with allopurinol. This study aims to compare the clinical and clinicopathological efficacy at 28–30 days of conventional dosing regimens for both treatments using the critically appraised topic methodology. A comprehensive search across three databases (PubMed, CAB Abstracts, and Web of Science) from March 2004 to September 2023 yielded 16 relevant articles, encompassing 325 ogs treated with meglumine antimoniate and allopurinol, and 273 dogs treated with miltefosine and allopurinol. The findings indicated a significantly higher rate of complete clinical cure in the group treated with meglumine antimoniate and allopurinol. Most dogs in both groups exhibited improvement in clinicopathological alterations after one month of treatment. No significant difference was observed in the number of dogs that showed a negative Leishmania qPCR between the two groups, one month post-treatment. However, quantitative serology results were not commonly reported in the available data and therefore this aspect could not be compared.

Schiff bases have often been used as chelating ligands in the field of coordination chemistry, and their metal complexes have been extensively investigated due to their potential applications. It is known that reactions of N,N,O,O-donor Schiff bases ligands with transition metal ions have produced series of complexes with interesting structures and magnetic properties. A new complex prepared by the reaction of 2,2'-{propane-1,2-diyl-bis[nitrilo(E)methylidene]}bis(6-methoxyphenol) (H2L) with Co(III) ion is reported in this paper. The bicompartmental ligand acts in a tetradentate fashion. The H2L ligand is structurally characterized by elemental analysis, NMR and infrared spectroscopies, conductance and single X-ray diffraction.

The compound with Co(III) crystallizes in the monoclinic system in the space group P21/c with the unit cell parameters a = 13.168(2) Å, b = 15.795(2) Å, c = 15.882(2) Å, α = 90°, β = 110.703(16)°, γ = 90°. The cobalt (III) ion has slightly distorted octahedral coordination geometry.

In the structure of the mononuclear complex, the Co(III) cation is coordinated by two imine nitrogen atoms, two phenoxo oxygen atoms, from deprotonated Schiff base ligand and two oxygen atoms of water. There is also neighboring two molecule of DMF and one perchlorate anion non coordinating.

Authors: Vedhavarshini T , Neelamalar M
Published: May 2024

The sudden and tragic demise of General Bipin Rawat, India’s Chief of Defence Staff, triggered discussions, and emotions on social media platforms, with Twitter (now X) emerging as a prominent battleground for public discourse. A sentiment analysis was done, to assess the discourse on Twitter during this critical period and revealed that Twitter became a polarized space, with both supportive and critical voices, expressing their views on the deceased General. The study discusses how the microbloggers were radicalized by extremist ideologies and political motivations and exploited the situation to amplify their agendas. To understand this process, the 12 mechanisms of political radicalization stated by McCauley & Moscalenko is used as a tool for analysis. Understanding the process of online radicalization during Bipin Rawat’s death is crucial for policymakers to counter the spread of extremist ideologies on online platforms. This research contributes to the broader discourse on the intersection of social media and radicalization, emphasizing the importance of propagating facts and peace journalism to counter fake news and hate speech.

Published: May 2024

This article undertakes a primary objective to examine the influence exerted by the parents’ education upon the academic achievements of students. Academic success among children is a complex culmination of various factors, with the parents’ education emerging as a notably influential determinant. The synthesis of existing literature within this study aims to provide a comprehensive grasp of how the parents’ education intricately mold the educational courses of students. The foundation of this article lies in a cross-sectional survey design, wherein the parents’ education assumes the role of an independent variable, and the students’ academic attainment as the dependent one. The data collection process involved the administration of a survey questionnaire to 386 students enrolled at 14 high schools located in Makawanpur district, Nepal. Employing linear regression analysis, the study pursued to unravel the impact of the parents’ education on students’ academic achievements. The outcomes of the regression analysis, with a correlation coefficient (R=.711) indicates a positive link between parents’ education and students’ grade points, an R-Square value of .505, indicative of a predictive nature, revealed that 50.5% of the discrepancy in students’ academic achievement can be ascribed to the parents’ education, leaving 49.5% accounted for by other influencing factors. The observed f(1, 384) = 97.185 that exceeded the critical value (3.865) indicates the fitness of the model, and (Sig.) being smaller than .05 implies that the independent variable had a noteworthy impact on the dependent variable. This research investigates the intricate relationship between parents’ instructive backgrounds and their children’s educational feat. The implications of this research extend beyond individual academic accomplishments, influencing educational policies, parental guidance programs, and interventions aimed at narrowing educational disparities.

A quantitative analysis of the Third Intermediate Period Nile Level Records from the Karnak ‘Quay’ and their implications
Authors: Mushett Cole Edward
Published: May 2024

The Nile Level Records were found by Georges Legrain in 1896 on the side of what has been called the ‘Karnak quay’ in front of the first pylon of the temple of Amun at Karnak. Ever since they were discovered, much of the research on them has been focused on the assistance they can provide for clarifying the difficult chronology of the Third Intermediate Period, rather than the information they can give us about the nature of the environmental conditions during this period. This is an oversight given that paleo-environmental evidence from Nile sources in the Ethiopian Highlands appear to suggest that this was a period of low Nile floods, and that these are the most closely dated records to the end of the New Kingdom - something which is attributed by some scholars to a decline in flood levels. This article carries out a quantitative analysis of the surviving records and reviews what the results can tell us about the nature of the annual floods and Egyptian reactions to periods of low annual floods.

Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome (ARS) is a rare autosomal dominant condition manifesting as a heterogeneous group of features. Of particular note are the ocular and craniofacial anomalies and dental features such as hypodontia, microdontia, taurodontism, enamel hypoplasia, conical-shaped teeth, shortened roots and delayed eruption. We report the case of a 23 years old female patient, who presented to the ophthalmology department for a routine eye chek-up. The ophthalmological examination showed vertical cup-to-disc ratio of 0,6 in the right eye and 0,7 in the left eye with normal intra ocular pressure. On general examination, she had maxillary hypoplasia, broad nasal bridge, oligodontia and microdontia.

Objectives: To assess whether bipolar electro dissection tonsillectomy has better surgical outcome compared to traditional cold steel dissection followed by silk ligature. Methodology: A Randomized Control Trial (RCT) was conducted at Department of ENT and Head-Neck surgery, Dhaka Medical College Hospital, from 1st January, 2020 to 30th July, 2021 Total 100 patients were enrolled through non- probability consecutive sampling and according to the selection criteria, who were admitted for elective tonsillectomy. They were randomly allocated into two groups of 50 persons each Bipolar electro dissection' (BED) and 'Cold Steel Dissection (CSD) group according to surgical method applied on them. The parameters of comparison were-duration of surgical technique, intraoperative blood loss, post-operative hemorrhage, pain, time taken returning to solid diet and healing rate of tonsillar fossac. Results: The mean operative time was 23.7±4.4 minutes in BED whereas 47.2±48.1 minutes in CSD method (p<0.0001). Mean intra operative blood loss was less in BED (16.4±6.6ml) than in CSD (37.8±6.6ml) technique (p<0.001). Overall reactionary hemorrhage rate was 12% and overall secondary hemorrhage rate was 18%. There was no statistically significant difference in post-operative hemorrhage incidence between two methods (p=0.373). Moderate to severe post- operative pain is more common bipolar method (68% & 12%) than dissection method (46% & 6%) which was significant (p=0.012). Mean time taken to return to solid diet for BED group was 8.12 days (range 3-16 days) and for the CSD group was 4.23 days (range 3-15 days) (p>0.05). Regarding aspect of the tonsillar fossa in the CSD group healing was faster than BED group (p>0.05). Conclusion: Operative time and intraoperative blood loss was significantly less in the bipolar electro dissection tonsillectomy (BED) group. Postoperative pain was significantly less in cold steel dissection tonsillectomy (CSD) group. Time taken to return to solid ......

Background: Stem cells and exosomes offer a non-surgical approach to treating osteoarthritis (OA). Exosomes play an essential role in intercellular communication that has been widely studied. Furthermore, multi-wavelength intra-articular laser therapy is a newly developed technique in the treatment of various diseases. Here, we investigated the therapeutic potential and mechanism of adipose tissue-derived exosomes to alleviate knee osteoarthritis compared with exosome therapy combined with intra-articular laser therapy. Method: Adipose-derived exosomes were isolated and purified. Five volunteers received intra-articular injection of autologous exosomes in the right knee, while the left knee of these volunteers received intra-articular exosome injection and intra-articular infrared laser, 808 nm. To avoid any bias in the patient, the laser fiber was passed through the inserted needle for exosome injection, but without radiation, and on the right knee, an invisible infrared laser was applied. Visual analog scales (VAS) and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) were collected the week before the procedure, and every month until the sixth months after injection for both knees. Discussion: Both intra-articular exosome injections improved pain and functional outcomes at 6-month follow-up in volunteers with knee osteoarthritis. The differences between exosome injection and exosomes combined with intra-articular laser therapy are in terms of clinical improvement rates and functional outcome rates. Conclusion: Combination of stemcell or exosome therapy with intra-articular laser therapy could be considered as a feasible option in non-surgical treatment approaches. It could be also used as a preventive purpose.
Language Shift as a Way of Acquiring New Citizenship and a Profession: The Educational Background of the First Female Students at the Jyväskylä Teachers Seminary
Authors: Kotilainen Sofia
Published: May 2024

This article sheds light on gendered aspects of the early years of the Finnish teacher training system. It focuses on the first generation of female students at the Jyväskylä Teachers Seminary in central Finland, their educational background, and their language competences. My main sources are the students’ applications to the seminary, which I explore with the help of the collective biographical method. The Jyväskylä Teachers Seminary, the first Finnish-language teacher training college for elementary school teachers in Finland, was established in central Finland in 1863, partly in response to the increasing significance of the Finnish language to the nation. For the girls who entered the seminary, their preparatory private education and the language shift they experienced there from Swedish to Finnish were significant factors both in their training as teachers and in the opportunity to gain a public profession of their own, as well as a new kind of female citizenship. Most of these women had graduated from private schools or had only private tutoring at home.
