Authors: Shukla SachchidaNand , Arshad Syed Shamroz , Thakur Kavita , Srivastava Geetika
Published: January 2024

Two circuit models of Small Signal amplifier, constituted with BJT-MOSFET hybrid unit under Sziklai pair topology are designed and analyzed using ‘PSpice’ and ‘Cadence Virtuoso and Spectre simulation tool (at GPDK 180nm technology)’ respectively. First amplifier (Circuit-1) uses PSpice user-defined model of BJT and MOSFET whereas the second amplifier (Circuit-2) consists of transistors available at GPDK 180nm technology. Circuit-1 can amplify the AC signals of 1mV-1nV range with optimum voltage gain 389.532, 137.570 current gain, 14.464MHz bandwidth and 2.43% THD. However, Circuit-2 can amplify AC signals of 0.1mV-10nV range with 164.018 voltage gain, 32.775 current gain, 11.906 MHz bandwidth, and 13.608E-6% THD. Both the proposed amplifier circuits remove narrow band problem and generate better results than earlier announced small signal Sziklai pair amplifier with BJT-MOSFET hybrid unit in respect of voltage and current gains, bandwidth, THD, and power consumption. Proposed amplifiers successfully address the problem of poor frequency response of small signal Darlington pair amplifier in higher frequency range and narrow bandwidth limitations of small-signal PNP Sziklai pair amplifier. Dependency of the proposed amplifiers at various biasing resistances and performance with temperature variation, noise variation, DC supply variation, and phase variation are also discussed herein. Proposed Circuits display strong dependency over ideal maximum forward beta ‘β’ of NPN transistor, Transconductance ‘VTO’ of P-MOS transistor and additional biasing resistances ‘RA’. Layout of Circuit-2 is found to cover 96.3898µm2 area with 11.32µm length and 8.515µm breadth. Minor percentage variation between pre-layout and post-layout simulation results of Circuit-2 validates the proposed design at GPDK 180nm technology. Monte Carlo and Process Corner analysis are also performed to test the robustness and insensitivity of Circuit-2 against mean value of the parameters and process and mismatch respectively. Performance summary of the proposed circuits and comparison with the recently reported designs shows effectiveness of the proposed circuits in terms of power gain, THD, voltage gain, current gain, input referred noise and power gain. Qualitative analysis of the proposed Circuits recommends its usability as Low Noise Amplifier in the portable RF noise measurement system.

Authors: Fang Heyi , Guinto Hailey , Pinneboina Harshita
Published: January 2024

Cancer is a condition characterized by the uncontrolled growth and spreading of certain cells within the body. The formation of malignant tumors necessitates a substantial amount of energy to sustain the abnormal rate of cell division. This process leads to a significant alteration in the primary metabolic pathway, transitioning from mitochondrial respiration to aerobic glycolysis, particularly in cancers associated with diabetes. This shift creates an opportunity for less invasive treatment options that can limit cancer growth by targeting specific transporters and enzymes crucial for energy production. This article focuses on the biological functions of Fasentin and Metformin, exploring their effectiveness in constraining cancer development. The discussion delves into their roles in regulating metabolism and highlights how these drugs can be instrumental in impeding the progression of cancer.

Authors: Ghazzawi Jowana , Yu Crystal , Favela Maria
Published: January 2024

As the largest organ of the body, it is crucial that the skin, and all it protects, remain healthy and functioning. However, burn injuries may result as a serious threat to the skin, possibly forming greater health issues depending on the severity of the issue. Burn wound injury is characterized as damage to the skin or other organic tissue originating from sources such as heat, friction, radiation, radioactivity, electricity, and/or chemical contact. Different degrees of burn wounds make it increasingly more difficult to treat the more severe the wound is. For this reason, it is crucial to study how skin can not only heal itself via its own equipped healing related pathways, but also what treatments exist outside of the ongoing biochemical mechanisms in order to accelerate healing and repair the body’s greatest defense. More standard forms of treatment that currently exist adopt a more holistic approach, treating at the surface level, while treatments targeting the molecular level are less well studied. This review paper assesses several novel therapeutic alternatives including, but not limiting to, targeting lncRNA XIST, IL-33, and miR-19b through analyzing the molecular pathways in which wound healing is performed.

Published: January 2024

Protein phosphorylation and dephosphorylation are pivotal in regulating protein activity. Two key players, protein tyrosine kinases and protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPN), especially non-receptor PTPNs, exert opposing influences in this process. While all PTPNs dephosphorylate substrates, their impact on different cancers varies. Some act as tumor suppressors in specific cancers, while in others, they may function as tumor promoters. This review focuses on comprehending the roles of PTPNs in lung and digestive cancers. Notably, lung cancer ranks as the third most common cancer in the United States, with around 200,000 new cases reported annually. Despite declining rates in the US, stomach cancer remains a major cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. The objective of this review article is to elucidate the functions of PTPN1, PTPN2, PTPN3, PTPN6, PTPN11, PTPN12, and PTPN13 in lung and/or digestive cancers. Emphasis is placed on exploring their potential as prognostic markers or therapeutic targets.
Can Leviathan City Governments Use Tax Policy to Attract the Creative Class?
Authors: Batabyal Amitrajeet A. , Beladi Hamid
Published: January 2024

We focus on an aggregate economy of two nearby cities A and B and study whether it is possible for the leviathan governments in these two cities to use taxes τA and τB to attract members of the so-called creative class. The creative class population is fixed and members locate either in city A or B depending on the utility from such location. In this setting, we accomplish five tasks. First, given the two taxes, we determine the value of a metric ζ that describes how the creative class population partitions into cities A and B. Second, for a given partition of the creative class population, we state the budget constraints confronting the governments in cities A and B. Third, we state and solve the decision problems of the two governments when they act as independent leviathans and maximize tax revenue. Fourth, we ascertain the efficient taxes that maximize the sum of tax revenues in the aggregate economy. Finally, we discuss the implications of our analysis for tax policy.
Jointly Modeling the Community Capitals and Their Influence on Economic Resilience
Authors: Ringwood Lauren , Watson Philip
Published: January 2024

The concept of community resilience has garnered a great deal of attention in the past decade and many theoretical constructs have been proposed to model resilience, including the community capitals framework. However, while the community capitals framework has been developed theoretically and subcomponents have been quantified, little research has attempted to address the community capitals framework as a whole and test how well the theorical constructs fit together. Using a structural equation model, we empirically investigate the community capitals framework and test how variables identified in the literature combine to predict community resilience. We find that, while many variables in the theoretical literature perform poorly, the overall framework provides a compelling avenue for addressing economic resilience.

Published: January 2024

IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is an intricate autoimmune disorder that have an effect on multiple organs in the body, including the lachrymal and salivary glands, liver, biliary duct, thyroid, pancreas, gastrointestinal tract, kidney, aorta, prostate and retroperitoneum. Mikulicz disease, a subtype of IgG4-RD, specifically targets the lachrymal and salivary glands, leading to glandular swelling, xerostomia, and xerophthalmia. Diagnosis of Mikulicz disease is established on the presence of proportional and persistent inflammation of at least two pairs of lachrymal, submandibular, and parotid glands, along with exalted serum IgG4 levels and/or marked penetration of IgG4-positive plasmacytes into the affected glandular tissues. Treatment with glucocorticoids has shown to be beneficial in managing IgG4-related MD, but the efficacy of combination therapy in preventing relapse is still a topic of debate. The underlying causes of the disease can vary, but lymphoepithelial sialadenitis is the widespread cause. The disease typically presents in individuals with an average age ranging from 55 to 65 years, and the incidence among individuals under the age of 20 is exceedingly rare. Mikulicz disease is an enigmatic ailment that is still being researched. However, identifying its hallmark symptoms and distinguishing it from other similar conditions is essential for effective diagnosis and treatment. Further research is essential to better comprehend the fundamental causes of the disease and to promote more effective treatment options for patients with Mikulicz disease and other subtypes of IgG4-RD.

Published: January 2024

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), tuberculosis (TB) remains one of the top 10 causes of death worldwide. Tuberculosis is a major global health threat. In 2022, an estimated 10 million people worldwide developed TB disease, and there were about 1.5 million TB-related deaths. TB primarily affects low- and middle-income countries, with the highest burden in Africa, Asia, and the Western Pacific regions. The WHO has launched the "End TB Strategy" with the aim of eliminating TB as a public health problem by 2035. Early diagnosis and prompt initiation of treatment are essential for effective TB control. WHO recommends a package of interventions known as "Directly Observed Treatment, Short-course" (DOTS) for TB control, which includes standardized diagnostic approaches, access to quality-assured drugs, and supportive treatment adherence measures. Tuberculosis (TB) remains a global health burden, necessitating the development of new therapeutic strategies. Fluoroquinolones (FQs) have emerged as promising agents in the treatment of TB due to their potent antimicrobial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) and their ability to penetrate intracellular compartments. This review aims to summarize the current knowledge on the use of FQs as antitubercular agents, highlighting their mechanisms of action, efficacy and limitations.

Published: January 2024

The tourism sector can increase Regional Original Income, but its contribution has not been fully realized. Therefore, the government needs to play an important role in tourism development. This study aims to determine the tourism sector's contribution to Langsa City's Regional Original Income and the government's efforts related to tourism development. The research method employed a qualitative approach with a descriptive research type. The primary data for this study consisted of interview data, while the secondary data included documentation, tax reports, and Regional Original Income of Langsa City for the period 2018 to 2020. The study revealed that the tourism sector's contribution to the Regional Original Income of Langsa City from 2018 to 2020 was minimal. Specifically, Kota Forest and Mangrove Forest tourism contributed 0.0017%, Mutiara Water Park contributed 0.00004%, Virta Tirta Raya contributed 0.00029%, and Royal Waterboom contributed 0.00029%, resulting in a total contribution of 0.00232%. These figures indicate that the tourism sector's contribution to the city's income is very low. The Langsa City government is making efforts to develop tourism in a way that optimizes Regional Original Income through environmental improvement and structuring, sustainable use of natural resources, support for the local economy, and community involvement in maintaining existing tourist attractions in Langsa City.

Using Arithmetic Optimization Algorithm to Allocate and Size Wind Energy Systems in RDSs
Authors: Mosaad Mohamed I.
Published: January 2024

Recent years have seen a marked increase in the world’s energy needs. Numerous studies have been conducted to examine distributed generation (DG) utilizing renewable energy sources (RESs) in order to address this need. The number of environmental problems that are raised by the usage of traditional power plants is also decreased by these renewable sources. The ideal position and size of the RESs-DG significantly influence the bus voltage profile, power quality, and efficiency of Radial Distribution Systems (RDS) because of power losses. In this study, the use of wind energy systems as a DG source in RDS is investigated. One of the most common RESs used as DG sources, the ideal location and size for wind system, was chosen to demonstrate this enquiry. The goal of this optimization work, which used the Arithmetic Optimization Algorithm (AOA), was to increase system efficiency by minimizing power losses and improving the voltage profile and power quality. Two widely used RDS, including the IEEE 31 and 69 bus systems, have been used to evaluate how well the recommended technique has been implemented. Genetic Algorithm (GA) is offered to examine the efficacy of the recommended AOA. The findings show that the used AOA approach can pinpoint the appropriate size and positioning of a wind farm in order to reduce power loss, enhance voltage profile, and outperform other existing tactics with superiority over GA.
