ROLE OF HOMOEOPATHY IN MANAGEMENT OF TYPE 2 DIABETES MELLITUS
Authors: Kumar Rahul , Chatterjee Namita
Published: November 2024

One of the most prevalent metabolic diseases in the world, type 2
diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is mainly brought on by a combination of
two main factors: the pancreatic β-cells' impaired ability to secrete
1
insulin and the tissues' incapacity to react to insulin. The molecular
mechanisms involved in the manufacture and release of insulin, as well
as the insulin response in tissues, must be strictly regulated in order for
insulin release and action to precisely satisfy the metabolic
requirement. Consequently, abnormalities in any of the underlying
systems may result in a metabolic dysregulation that triggers the
development of type 2 diabetes.

Published: November 2024

Understanding the anatomy of the round window (RW) is pivotal for successful cochlear implant (CI) surgery. Variations in round window
anatomy signicantly inuence electrode placement and cochlear implant outcomes. This review identied ve studies focusing on round window
dimensions, shapes, and relationships with adjacent structures. We reviewed 703 articles, identied 14 for full review, and included 6. PRISMA
guidelines directed the selection process. Findings highlighted the importance of wide and anteriorly positioned round window for deeper
electrode insertion, potentially enhancing auditory performance. Preoperative imaging, particularly MRI, offers detailed round window
visualization, aiding surgical planning and improving electrode placement accuracy. Challenges such as obscured round window niche during
surgery require careful consideration. While observational, these studies underscore the need for further research with robust methodologies to
establish denitive links between round window anatomy and cochlear implant outcomes. Standardized protocols for round window assessment
using multiple imaging modalities are necessary. Exploring emerging technologies can address anatomical challenges and improve cochlear
implant success, especially in specic patient populations. Overall, comprehensive understanding of round window anatomy is crucial for
optimizing cochlear implant outcomes and enhancing patient quality of life.

Authors: SABRI Miloud , EL HANDI Kaoutar , CARA Orges , DE STRADIS Angelo , ELBEAINO Toufic
Published: November 2024

Agrobacterium tumefaciens causes crown gall, and economic losses in important crops, including apple, pear, peach, and almond. Difficulties controlling this disease with conventional pesticides require alternative antibacterial agents. A novel lytic bacteriophage, Agrobacterium phage PAT1 (PAT1), with high lysis potential against A. tumefaciens, was isolated from wastewater. Interaction between PAT1 and A. tumefaciens cells was investigated using transmission electron microscopy. PAT1 adsorbed, infected, and replicated on A. tumefaciens in ≤30 min. Turbidity assays showed that PAT1 [Multiplicity of Infection (MOI) = 1] inhibited A. tumefaciens growth by 82% for 48 hours. PAT1 was resistant to broad ranges of pH (4 to 10) and temperatures (4 to 60°C). Bioinformatics analyses of the PAT1 genomic sequence showed that the bacteriophage was closely related to Atuphduovirus (Autographiviridae) phages. The PAT1 genome size was 45,040 base pairs with a G+C content of 54.5%, consisting of 54 coding sequences (CDS), of which the functions of 23 CDS were predicted, including an endolysin gene which could be used as an antimicrobial against A. tumefaciens. No lysogenic mediated genes or genes encoding virulence factors, antibiotic resistance, or toxins were detected in PAT1 genome. The bacteriophage showed potential as a biocontrol agent against A. tumefaciens infections, expanding the limited catalogue of lytic A. tumefaciens phages, although efficacy for control of crown gall in planta remains to be evaluated.

Authors: R. Kumar, H.
Published: November 2024

Appendicular abscess is a complication from perforation of the appendix, and it is seen in 10% of cases of acute appendicitis. It is diagnosed by clinical examination, the presence of leukocytosis and imaging modalities like ultrasound or computerized tomography. The treatment is usually conservative with intra-venous fluids, antibiotics and percutaneous drainage of the abscess. The introduction of laparoscopic surgery has seen a move towards immediate appendectomy. Interval appendectomy is no longer a routine and is only performed for patients who present with recurrent symptoms. We have conducted this narrative review article to look at the various management options for appendicular abscess.

Analyzing the Distinctions: Film Sets vs. Stage Platforms – Investigating the Subtle Differences between Theatre and Film
Authors: Melinte Olimpia
Published: November 2024

Often, we face an unspoken dispute between theatre actors and the stars emerging from lead or supporting roles in cinema. Who truly qualifies as a celebrity? Consequently, due to ignorance, trained theatre actors have become unsung heroes, while society has always highlighted screen personalities. This article showcases the main challenges faced by actors from both mediums, focusing on the differences between the two branches of acting. The first and most obvious difference lies in the space. In the section on the actor and the camera, we closely examined the dimensions of a cinema screen, the importance of sound, and how actors enter people’s homes through close-ups and all the adjacent structures of a film montage. While stage actor training must encompass the ability to maintain the truth of the character while adjusting the voice level slightly higher, in order to project that reality to a large audience, on the contrary, the camera functions like a microscope, scrutinizing every movement of the actor, even the softest whisper. These differences highlight the unique demands of each medium and underline the importance of adaptability and stage technique in an actor’s training and performance.
Feminisms: The Tide to Come
Authors: Tepichín Pablo
Published: November 2024

This article tackles the political emergence of feminisms. It centres and reflects on the gestures and uprising of women against a hegemonic discursive order, an order of the text. The logic of the explicit or implicit agreement so that women’s voices are not heard is broken with the appearance of countertexts which mean the politicization of the public sphere. I propose the figure of the palimpsest as a reflection on the different layers of memory of the passions of the past in the present and of the present that is a past.

Published: November 2024

Pelaksanaan Perintah Kawalan Pergerakan (PKP) akibat Pandemik Covid-19 menyebabkan sebahagian sebahagian besar rutin harian normal berubah termasuk proses pengajaran dan pembelajaran di institusi pendidikan. Alternatif terbaik meneruskan proses pembelajaran tanpa bersemuka ialah memanfaatkan teknologi maklumat dan komunikasi (ICT) iaitu melaksanakan proses pengajaran dan pembelajaran dalam talian (PdPDT) sepenuhnya yang memerlukan empat komponen utama; pensyarah, pelajar, pedagogi dan objek pembelajaran (learning object, LO), dan teknologi. Pelajar perlu mencapai objek pembelajaran yang disediakan oleh pensyarah dengan bantuan teknologi. Situasi ini secara tidak langsung memerlukan komitmen dan daya usaha pelajar menguruskan pembelajaran sendiri. Sehubungan itu, kajian ini bertujuan mengena pasti pola kekerapan capaian pelajar kepada LO bagi salah satu subjek umum universiti dalam tempoh PKP serta perkaitannya dengan pencapaian subjek. Kajian berbentuk kuantitatif ini menggunakan instrumen data log capaian portal e-pembelajaran bagi analisis deskriptif untuk mengenal pasti pola kekerapan capaian dan perkaitan pencapaian. Hasil analisis mendapati pelajar gred A mempunyai pola kekerapan capaian LO lebih tinggi berbanding pelajar gred B dan C. Manakala LO berbentuk dokumen lebih kerap dicapai berbanding LO video. Analisis perkaitan mendapati pola kekerapan capaian LO mempunyai kaitan dengan pencapaian pelajar. Perbincangan akhir kajian mencadangkan pensyarah perlu melaksanakan pengajaran dengan struktur tertentu yang memerlukan pelajar membuat capaian LO bagi membantu pencapaian subjek.
Multi-depot dispatch deployment analysis on classifying preparedness phase for flood-prone coastal demography in Sarawak
Authors: Morsidi Farid
Published: November 2024

Multi-Depot VRP (MDVRP) is a metaheuristic approach with concurrent vehicle rendezvous across various depots within a demanded regulation, where the task assignment would eventually end up at the same initial depot. A review of the relief commodities distribution patterns among flood-prone areas in the underlying layouts of Sarawak residential areas has been conducted in retrospect and in light of common real-world routing problems. The purpose of this research is to demonstrate the benefits of multi-path route selection in task distribution to cater to simultaneous demands for adhering to strict constraint settings, including load dispatch dynamism and deployed vehicle quantities. Shortest path algorithms are improvised as an alternative to select the most optimum traveled routes during relief commodity distribution. This is done by determining critical allocation nodes, where solution steps are optimized using a genetic algorithm with predefined parameters. The experimental output displays the strong correlation between the number of prioritized customers and assigned depots to optimize the route complexity and natural affluence on generated final solution cost. The approach is seen as viable for further addressing problem-specific instances in vehicle routing problems such as adjusting parameter settings to generate rapid solution steps, including pathfinding shortest coverage distance and sorting out trade-offs between space covered and the time limitations of task distribution efforts.

Authors: Hassan Nurul Nadia , Hamzah Siti Salbiah , Said Che Soh , Idris Muhammad Zaffwan , Ismail Nor Azman
Published: November 2024

This study emphasized the challenges in teaching and learning fundamentals of programming as a consequence of the lack of metacognitive awareness, which is associated with problem-solving abilities. These abilities can be enhanced through the use of thinking maps, but they are typically used only in school and under the supervision of a teacher. Additionally, the practice is conducted in a typical manner, with no interesting features incorporated into the process, and it does not promote the development of metacognitive awareness. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to produce a learning tool to train computing students using thinking maps in the multimedia environment to enhance their metacognitive awareness. The developed tool called Motivated Strategies Thinking Maps Tool (MoSTMaT) embeds multimedia principles as well as motivated strategies for learning theory to keep students motivated and able to learn in the self-regulated learning environment. The tool was developed using ADDIE instructional design model and was evaluated by the end user namely computing students. A set of questionnaires containing three parts was applied to measure the acceptance of students; 1) multimedia principles, 2) post-study system usability, and 3) motivated strategies for learning was applied to measure the acceptance of students. The result of this study indicated that students agreed that the multimedia application in the tool is suited for students’ usage, has adequate information on thinking maps, a user-friendly interface, and is suitable to be used in the self-regulated mood. The implication of this study is the conceptual framework for developing MoSTMaT can be a guide for developing instructional tools in self-regulated learning. Furthermore, this study demonstrated that multimedia principles and elements had a beneficial impact on motivation and self-regulation among computing students.

The Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation Derived from the Third Order Korteweg-de Vries Equation Using Multiple Scales Method
Authors: Koparan Murat
Published: November 2024

Nonlinear equations of evolution (NLEE) are mathematical models used in various branches of science. As a result, nonlinear equations of evolution have served as a language for formulating many engineering and scientific problems. For this reason, many different and effective techniques have been developed regarding nonlinear equations of evolution and solution methods. Although the origin of nonlinear equations of evolution dates back to ancient times, there have been significant developments regarding these equations from the past to the present. The main reason for this situation is that nonlinear equations of evolution involve the problem of nonlinear wave propagation. In recent years, equations of formation have become increasingly important in applied mathematics. This work focuses on the perturbation approach, often known as many scales, for nonlinear evolution equations. The article focuses on the analysis of the (1+1) dimensional third-order nonlinear Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation using the multiple scales method, which resulted in obtaining nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) type equations.
Estimation of Tensile Strength of Carbon Fibers Using Exponentiated Exponential Weibull-Dagum Distribution Model (EEWD) and Its Properties
Authors: Vidya P  , Parthiban S
Published: November 2024

The tensile strength of Carbon fibers was investigated. Tested EEWD distribution ability to fit with data and observed the skewness of data. The T-R{.} framework has been recently used to generalize various distributions, but the viability of using Dagum distribution has not been investigated. Three distributions are combined in the T-R{.}, through one serving as a baseline distribution. The combined potency of each distribution, which is a weighted hazard function of the baseline distribution, would have more parameters but would also be highly flexible in handling bimodality in datasets. Thus, this paper used the quantile function of the Weibull distribution to generalize the Dagum distribution. In this present research work a novel generalized 6P (six parameter) model called Exponentiated Exponential Weibull Dagum Distribution (EEWD) has been introduced. Appropriate distributions including PDF, CDF, moments, Moment Generating Function (MGF) of EEWD distribution, stochastic ordering, Cumulant Generating Function (CGF) of EEWD distribution, mean, mean deviations and their sub-models have been given. Further EEWD model has been applied in the real-time data admissible.

Structured Query Language (SQL) injection attacks represent a substantial threat to the security of web applications, making the development of effective detection techniques crucial. These techniques have evolved from traditional signature-based techniques to more advanced techniques based on machine learning models. Machine learning detection models are often vulnerable to adversarial examples. Adversarial examples are deliberately crafted inputs designed to deceive models into making incorrect predictions by subtly altering the original dataset in ways that are typically imperceptible to humans. To train and test these machine learning models, datasets comprising both malicious and normal data are indispensable. However, the lack of sufficient and balanced datasets presents a significant challenge, particularly for models intended to detect SQL injection attacks. Most network traffic datasets exhibit a substantial class imbalance, with a disproportionate amount of normal traffic compared to malicious traffic, making it difficult to train effective and reliable detection models. This study addressed the shortcomings of current SQL injection detection techniques and proposed a conditional tabular generative adversarial network adversarial attack method. We evaluated the effectiveness of the generated adversarial SQL injection examples using qualitative and quantitative methods, measuring their ability to evade the detection model. A conventional neural network algorithm detection model was built and tested, and the generated adversarial examples successfully bypassed the detection model at a rate of up to 6%. The evidence demonstrated that the conditional tabular generative adversarial network successfully captures the statistical properties of real data and generates synthetic data that accurately represents the real data. This method is also expected to address the problem of insufficient and imbalanced SQL injection datasets, which could aid in training various machine learning models beyond the one used in our study.

Background: Social media has become ubiquitous; its uses reach beyond connecting individuals or organizations. Many biomedical researchers have found social media to be a useful tool in recruiting patients for clinical studies, crowdsourcing for cross-sectional studies, and even as a method of intervention. Social media usefulness in biomedical research has largely been in population health and non-surgical specialties, however, its usefulness in surgical specialties should not be overlooked. Specifically in plastic surgery, social media use to understand patient perceptions, identify populations, and provide care has become an important part of clinical practice.
Methods: A scoping review was performed utilizing PubMed and Medline databases, and articles were screened for the use of social media as a method of recruitment to a clinical trial, as crowdsourcing (i.e., recruitment for a cross-sectional or survey-based study), or as a method of intervention.
Results: A total of 28 studies were included, which focused on majority females between 18–34 years old. Despite the ability of the internet and social media to connect people worldwide, nearly all the studies focused on the researchers’ home countries. The studies largely focused on social media’s effect on self-esteem and acceptance of cosmetic surgery, but other notable trends were analyses of patient perceptions of a disease, or surgical outcomes as reported in social media posts.
Discussion: Overall, social media can be a useful tool for plastic surgeons looking to recruit patients for a survey-based study or crowdsourcing of information.
Higher Education in Ethics and Deontology Student’s Perspective Survey
Authors: Barbosa Jorge
Published: November 2024

In many countries, particularly European ones, there are professions such as Engineering, Medicine, Law, and other professional areas that work as regulated professions; that is, they are professions that have an organization behind them, either public or private, but in this case of public interest and framed by national laws, which regulate these professions through the establishment of Codes of Ethics and Deontology. These organizations require their associated professionals to comply with, in the exercise of their respective professions, under penalty of being professionally sanctioned if they do not do it. Therefore, professionals in these areas must be trained in Ethics and Deontology. However, in some countries, in terms of higher education, great importance is not given to raising students' awareness of issues related to Ethics and Deontology, particularly in some courses, even at the undergraduate level. Although it seems that training in Ethics and Deontology is of great interest to any higher education student, regardless of the training area, considering this training in courses related to the so-called "regulated professions" is essential. However, specific considerations make it difficult to generalize training in these matters. In this article, we will, therefore, address these issues and carry out a study in a specific situation regarding their consideration in Informatics Engineering courses, a professional area whose professional exercise of specific engineering acts related to this profession is regulated but which is very difficult to regulate. Therefore, it is necessary to make these professionals aware of the need to comply with Ethics and Deontology in the exercise of their profession. Higher Education is essential in transmitting these concepts to its students, who will exercise these regulated professions. However, we also consider it essential that the basic concepts of ethics and deontology are taught in all higher education courses. To understand the students' perspective on this topic, we will analyze the responses that Ethics and Deontology students from Informatics Engineering Degree courses gave to a survey about the training they had in this curricular unit and try to understand what their perception was of the area and their interest and which was passed on to them in classes and lectures on that subject.

In this study, novel fluorinated carboxylic acid esters of the generic structure TfO–CH2–(CF2)n–COOCH3 (n = 2,4,6, Tf = triflate) were synthesized. The triflates were reacted with 2-hydroxy-3,4,5-trimethoxybenzaldehyde via Williamson ether syntheses. The resulting electron-rich compounds were used as aldehydes in the Rothemund reaction with pyrrole to form ester-substituted porphyrins. After metalation with Ni(acac)2 and hydrolysis electron-rich porphyrins were obtained, that are equipped with covalently attached long chain acid substituents. The target compounds have potential applications in catalysis, sensing, and materials science. The fluorinated aliphatic carboxylic acids (TfO–CH2–(CF2)n–COOCH3) with triflate as leaving group in terminal position are easily accessible and versatile building blocks for attaching long chain acids (pKa 0–1) to substrates in Williamson ether-type reactions.
