Published: March 2024

The Internet of Things (IoT) symbolizes the era of increased information exchange and interaction between devices through Internet of Things technology. However, this fascinating technology brings with it a number of security challenges. Some of the security issues stem from the nature of IoT devices. IoT devices are often designed to be cheap and uncomplicated. As a result, security tests may be neglected and security vulnerabilities may arise. There are other factors that compromise the security of IoT devices. For example, most IoT devices have standard passwords that have not been changed. Attackers can easily seize devices by manipulating them. There are data leaks from compromised devices.

Authors: Supriatna Agus , Rachman Hardina Arisa Alvia , Hakim Azis
Published: March 2024

Watershed management is very important because there is a decrease in the quality of the environment in the watershed. Current problems in watershed management are due to the existence of an egosectoral, not yet integrated and the absence of institutions that specifically and intensely manage watersheds from upstream to downstream well through community empowerment programs and soil and water conservation activities. Forest Management Units as a site-level organization is present as a solution to the problem of watershed management by becoming a watershed manager. The watershed manager functions to coordinate, manage, and manage, together with other stakeholders to achieve watershed management objectives.
Gastrointestinal adverse effects associated with the use of intravenous oliceridine compared with intravenous hydromorphone or fentanyl in acute pain management utilizing adjusted indirect treatment comparison methods
Authors: Biskupiak Joseph , Oderda Gary , Brixner Diana , Wandstrat Todd L
Published: March 2024

Background:
In the absence of head-to-head comparative data from randomized controlled trials, indirect treatment comparisons (ITCs) may be used to compare the relative effects of treatments versus a common comparator (either placebo or active treatment). For acute pain management, the effects of oliceridine have been compared in clinical trials to morphine but not to fentanyl or hydromorphone.
Aim:
To assess the comparative safety (specifically differences in the incidence of nausea, vomiting and opioid-induced respiratory depression [OIRD]) between oliceridine and relevant comparators (fentanyl and hydromorphone) through ITC analysis.
Methods:
A systematic literature review identified randomized clinical trials with oliceridine versus morphine and morphine versus fentanyl or hydromorphone. The ITC utilized the common active comparator, morphine, for the analysis.
Results:
A total of six randomized controlled trials (oliceridine – 2; hydromorphone – 3; fentanyl – 1) were identified for data to be used in the ITC analyses. The oliceridine data were reported in two studies (plastic surgery and orthopedic surgery) and were also reported in a pooled analysis. The ITC focused on nausea and vomiting due to limited data for OIRD. When oliceridine was compared with hydromorphone in the ITC analysis, oliceridine significantly reduced the incidence of nausea and/or vomiting requiring antiemetics compared with hydromorphone (both orthopedic surgery and pooled data), while results in plastic surgery were not statistically significant. When oliceridine was compared with hydromorphone utilizing data from Hong, the ITC only showed a trend toward reduced risk of nausea and vomiting with oliceridine that was not statistically significant across all three comparisons (orthopedic surgery, plastic surgery and combined). An ITC comparing oliceridine with a study of fentanyl utilizing the oliceridine orthopedic surgery data and combined orthopedic and plastic surgery data showed a trend toward reduced risk that was not statistically significant.
Conclusion:
In ITC analyses, oliceridine significantly reduced the incidence of nausea and/or vomiting or the need for antiemetics in orthopedic surgery compared with hydromorphone and a non-significant trend toward reduced risk versus fentanyl.
Knowledge and Practice of taking Influenza Vaccine among Adult Diabetic Patients in Bahrain Defense Force Hospital
Authors: Wahid Yasir Abdel Rahaman Abdel
Published: March 2024

The objective of this study is to assess the knowledge and practice of taking the annual influenza vaccine among adult diabetic patients in BDF Hospital. The study is a descriptive cross-sectional hospital-based study. Three hundred diabetic patients who were eligible for the study were interviewed, using a structured questionnaire. Results of the survey indicated that males and females included are 48% to 52% respectively, 95.3% of the cohort were doing follow up, but only 55.3% were doing it regularly. Although 65.3% are aware and have heard about the flu vaccine only 10% have taken the flu vaccine in the last 2 years. Only 27.3% were advised to take the flu vaccine, 30% of the study population know that the vaccine helps reduce the flu illness and 47.33% know that it helps prevent seasonal influenza. From our study, it was found that the main reason for not taking the flu vaccine is that they mainly did not know about the vaccine which constituted 49.33% of the study population. So, knowledge and use are lower than optimal compared to the literature but here it is the lowest, which may mostly be due to reduced awareness of the benefits of the vaccine and vaccination. This will most probably increase if there are increased efforts on advising direct contacts with the patients in the diabetic or other PHC clinics or through the media, to have the seasonal flu vaccine. Keywords: Influenza vaccine, diabetes patients

Published: March 2024

In this study we analyzed the concentration of the metals Cd, Cu, Pb, Fe and Ni in the muscle tissue and digestive tract of 13 species of fish from the Taquari River, collected in the northern region of the state of Mato Grosso do Sul, in the Coxim micro-region, in order to quantify and compare the concentrations of these analytes present in these fish with the regulations for inorganic contaminants in Brazil (MERCOSUR) and abroad (FAO/WHO), thus making it possible to indicate whether they are within acceptable standards. The analyses were carried out using the Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrometry method and the results obtained indicate that Cd and Pb were not detected in all species. For Fe, Cu and Ni, no limits stipulated by legislation were found. Finally, the analysis showed that there are no factors of contamination by potentially contaminating metals through the consumption of fish by the population.

Published: March 2024

The objective of this project was to develop a semantic model of arithmetic and logical operations for virtual hardware; this goal was achieved through three main steps: Implement logic gates and arithmetic and logic units in Nand2tetris virtual hardware simulator software; Implement recursive and iterative functions to check the correct functioning of logical and arithmetic operations in the p-code machine virtual machine. In the first stage, implementations of the elementary logic gates were developed in the hardware simulator software Nand2tetris. From these logic gates, combinational circuits and sequential circuits were built as logical and arithmetic unit, Half Adder, Full Adder, 16-bit Addition, 16-bit logical negation, 16-bit logical AND, 16-bit logical OR, among others. The second stage involved experimenting at a high level with arithmetic and logical operations, provided by the virtual machine p-code machine, which was implemented in the C programming language, as addition, subtraction, greater than, less than. In the third stage, having already implemented logical and arithmetic operations, iterative and recursive programs were developed to calculate the nth value of the Fibonacci Sequence and the factorial of any number n.
Měkkýši přírodních památek V Krátkých a Lom Rasová v CHKO Bílé Karpaty [Molluscs of the V Krátkých and Lom Rasová Nature Monuments in the White Carpathians PLA]
Authors: Coufal Radovan
Published: March 2024

The V Krátkých Nature Monument (NM) comprises of landscape mosaic of meadows, groves, spring fen and wetland while the Lom Rasová NM is a former sandstone quarry with open and forested areas. Both are situated near Vápenice village in the White Carpathians. In total, 44 species (40 terrestrial gastropods, 3 aquatic snails and 1 bivalve) were found in V Krátkých NM. Three species are listed in the Red List of Threatened Species: Daudebardia brevipes (VU), Lehmannia carpatica (NT) and Bythinella austriaca (NT). Most diversity consists of forest species, followed by eurytopic and hygrophilous species. The spring fen is the most species-rich habitat, as hygrophilous, eurytopic and forest species are present. To retain the favourable conservation status, extensive kettle grazing or mowing of the fen and meadows is suggested while the groves should remain in a non-intervention regime with possible subtle intrusion of broadleaved trees. In the Lom Rasová NM, 18 terrestrial gastropod species were recorded (aquatic malacofauna was not surveyed). All species are common and widespread, and their composition is a mixture of predominantly forest, euryvalent and open-country taxa. To support gastropod diversity, the broadleaved groves should remain in a non-intervention regime, while deciduous trees should be replaced with broadleaved species and overall habitat diversity should be supported.

An Inclusive Account of the Permissibility of Sex
Authors: Moret Adrià Rodríguez ,   Department of Philosophy, Florida State University
Published: March 2024

A complete theory of the permissibility of sex must not only determine the permissibility of sex between typical adult humans. In addition, it must also adequately take into consideration sex acts involving non-human animals, children, and humans with intellectual disabilities. However, when trying to develop a non-discriminatory account that includes these beings, two worrying problems of animal sex arise. To surpass them, I argue for a reformulation of the standard theory. To produce a truly inclusive account our theory should be focused on assent, dissent, the significance of sex, and the similarity of the beings engaging in the sex act.

Revision of deep-water species in Granulina (Gastropoda: Granulinidae) from Mauritania and Western Sahara
Authors: Von Elm Laura-Marie , Hoffman Leon
Published: March 2024

Empty shells (thanatocoenoses) have been reviewed of species in the genus Granulina (Gastropoda: Granulinidae) from the lower shelf and upper bathyal zones off Mauritania and Western Sahara. We encountered nine species of which four were already known from off Mauritania. Four new species are proposed herein: Granulina reginae sp. nov., G. ronaldi sp. nov., G. sandrae sp. nov. and G. sigridae sp. nov. These four sympatric new species lack labial denticles and they probably form a phyletic clade with a common ancestor. Most hitherto known species in Granulina from the NE Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean possess labial denticles. One additional new species with denticles was left in open nomenclature because the material available was considered inadequate. Species in Granulina from Mauritania and Western Sahara have not been found off NW Morocco or the Canary Islands, and the species known from NW Morocco and the Canary Islands have not been found off Mauritania and Western Sahara. The southern extents of the distributions of the Mauritanian species are currently uncertain as additional sampling would be required off Senegal or further South. A key to Mauritanian species in Granulina is given.

This study was aimed at assessing the impact of plastics and micro plastics pollution in Nigerian inland waterways operations. The main aim of this study is to provide a baseline assessment of plastic pollution in the River Niger, along with recommendations for further research. Using a survey and appropriate data analysis tools, the study investigated the determinant sources of plastic pollution in the River Niger, as well as the most significant impact and preferred means of plastic pollution and regulation. The main findings indicate that disposal of plastics is the determinant source of plastics and micro plastics in the River Niger. The most significant impact of plastic pollution was identified as reduction in the accessibility of certain areas of the river. Behavioral instrument is indicated to be the most preferred means of plastic pollution control and regulation. Hence, there is an urgent need for improved awareness among local communities. This can be achieved through education programs, which will help to reduce the use of single-use plastics while also reducing littering in these areas. The paper also recommends that more research be conducted on how these pollutants affect human health and ecosystems.

Published: March 2024

Türk milliyetçiliğinin oluşum sürecinde demokratik hareketlerin rolü, özellikle Osmanlı İmparatorluğu'nun son dönemlerinde ve Türkiye'nin kuruluşunda belirgin şekilde ortaya çıkmıştır. 19. yüzyılın sonlarında ve 20. yüzyılın başlarında, Osmanlı İmparatorluğu'nda yaşanan reformlar ve demokratik girişimler, ulusal kimlik arayışını ve milliyetçilik duygularını güçlendirmiştir. Tanzimat ve Islahat Fermanları gibi reformlar, eşitlik, adalet ve hukukun üstünlüğü gibi demokratik ilkeleri vurgulamıştır. Ancak, bu süreçler aynı zamanda etnik ve dini gruplar arasındaki gerginlikleri artırmış ve milliyetçilik duygularını körüklemiştir.

Osmanlı İmparatorluğu'nun çöküşüyle birlikte, Türk milliyetçiliği daha da güçlenmiş ve modern Türkiye'nin temelleri atılmıştır. II. Meşrutiyet dönemi, çok partili demokratik bir düzenin kurulduğu bir zamandır ve bu dönemde çeşitli etnik gruplar arasında milliyetçilik hareketleri ve siyasi partiler ortaya çıkmıştır. Mustafa Kemal Atatürk liderliğindeki Türk Kurtuluş Savaşı'nın ardından, Türkiye Cumhuriyeti'nin kuruluşuyla Türk milliyetçiliği devlet ideolojisi haline gelmiştir. Atatürk, Türk milliyetçiliğini, demokratik, laik ve modern bir devletin temellerini oluşturan ilkelerle birleştirmiştir. Dolayısıyla, Türk milliyetçiliğinin oluşum sürecinde demokratik hareketlerin rolü, Osmanlı İmparatorluğu'nun son dönemlerindeki reformlar ve demokratik gelişmelerle başlamış ve Türkiye'nin modernleşme süreci ve cumhuriyetin kuruluşuyla devam etmiştir.

Published: March 2024

In early 2022, changes in the inflation rate accompanied by global geopolitical issues became crucial information for the Indonesian capital market. At that time, inflation conditions in Indonesia began to creep up to reach a point of around 2%. This study aims to examine the market return performance of the LQ45 Index in the context of changes in the inflation rate and global geopolitical issues. Observations are carried out in 2 sub-periods: (1) 6 October 2021 to 30 December 2021 or the period with low inflation; and (2) January 3 2022 to March 31 2022 or a period with a high inflation rate. The findings of this study show that the highest market returns with low risk are in periods of high inflation and accompanied by global geopolitical issues. This period also produces a better risk-return trade-off. Other findings indicate that the market in both periods did not produce extraordinary returns even though it was in a weak form of inefficiency. Changes in the inflation rate accompanied by global geopolitical issues did not significantly change market returns.

It lead to a funny discussion about what that would make C/C++ and Fortran.
Open Source data mining in chemoinformatics
Authors: Willighagen Egon
Published: March 2024

On the 7th International Conference on Chemical Structures Jeroen Kazius has a poster on finding discriminative substructures, that is, molecular fragments which can be discriminate between two acitivity classes. The software is released as Gaston, is written in C++ and has the GPL license. Later I encountered MoSS which has the same goal, but uses a different algorithm. MoSS is written in Java and uses the LGPL license.

Free at last! Well, not quite yet, but close enough anyway: my PhD contract has ended; last friday was my last working day, which my collegues and I celebrated with a visit to Nijmegen oldest bar, In de Blauwe Hand   . But I still have my manuscript to finish. This formally ends a period of almost 12.5 years at the Radboud University Nijmegen. Starting last monday I’m at home, trying to get things finished as soon as possible.
When to stop including QSAR model variables...
Authors: Willighagen Egon
Published: March 2024

Yesterday I reviewed an article which published a QSPR model which looked something like: \[y = 151 + 50p1 - 12p2 - 0.006p3\] with quite OK prediction results (R=0.9880). But I was not quite comfortable with the coefficient for the \(p3\) variable. The article did not calculate significances for the coefficients, so it was not obvious from the article wether is was useful to include them. I then looked at the range for p3, which was 110-150;

OK, just back from the first German Chemoinformatics Conference, which I enjoyed very much. A rather interesting program, and lots of interesting posters too. You can read the programme online, and will not spend too many words on that (at least not now). But what I will do is point out some interesting posters here. One poster was on the Molecular Query Language (MQL) by Ewgenij Proschak from Frankfurt.
CDK News 2.3 and InChI's

CDK News   2.3 is scheduled for this month, and origanally planned to be distributed on the CDK5AW event. So, it’s a bit late. But the editorial process is converging… I realized that I forgot to mention the requirement for InChI’s whenever molecules are given.
Intelligent door unlock system using AI MediaPipe
Authors: Chinmayee Dutta  , Ritu Maity
Published: March 2024

Prioritizing advanced security, the infusion of AI Mediapipe into the realm of smart door access not only simplifies access control but also guarantees unmatched protection, reshaping the expectation for safety and reliability. Implementing AI Mediapipe facilitates real-time gesture recognition, face detection, and hand tracking, optimizing access control in smart door systems. Integrating software and hardware set a new standard in the domain of smart door access. Here, we have proposed a smart system with a high-resolution camera to capture faces and connect them to a processing unit, i.e., Raspberry Pi. A face detection algorithm has been deployed into the hardware device so that the lock would open once an authorized face is detected. Our proposed system can make accurate predictions compared to existing systems. Integrating advanced computer vision and authentication methods marks a significant stride in the evolution of intelligent entry solutions.
Bsc Optics
Authors: Konijnenberg Sander , Adam Aurèle J.L. , Urbach H. Paul
Published: March 2024

This book treats optics at the level of students in the later stage of their bachelor or the beginning of their master. It is assumed that the student is familiar with Maxwell’s equations. Although the book takes account of the fact that optics is part of electromagnetism, special emphasis is put on the usefulness of approximate models of optics, their hierarchy and limits of validity. Approximate models such as geometrical optics and paraxial geometrical optics are treated extensively and applied to image formation by the human eye, the microscope and the telescope. Polarisation states and how to manipulate them are studied using Jones vectors and Jones matrices. In the context of interference, the coherence of light is explained thoroughly. To understand fundamental limits of resolution which cannot be explained by geometrical optics, diffraction theory is applied to imaging. The angular spectrum method and evanescent waves are used to understand the inherent loss of information about subwavelength features during the propagation of light. The book ends with a study of the working principle of the laser.
Memetizando em sala de aula: memes, leitura de imagem e desafios da educação contemporânea
Authors: Baliscei João Paulo , Paulino Maria Fernanda Serrilho de Abreu
Published: March 2024

Este artigo tem como objetivo investigar o potencial pedagógico dos memes em contextos escolares e debater sobre os desafios contemporâneo de se ensinar a ler linguagens visuais. Para desenvolvê-lo, elaborou-se uma pesquisa bibliográfica, a partir dos Estudos Culturais e dos Estudos da Cultura Visual, e cujo desenvolvimento foi dividido em dois tópicos. No primeiro, debateu-se sobre as imagens como (trans)formadoras de identidades, inclusive nas salas de aula. No segundo, contextualizamos, histórica e visualmente, a criação dos memes e tematizamos as formas como esse artefato da cultura visual tem sido inserido nas salas de aula, como recurso didático. Nas considerações, refletimos sobre as expectativas e as realidades do acesso à tecnologia nos espaços educacionais contemporâneos articulando pesquisas elaboradas em diferentes momentos históricos.

Analysis of Public – Private Partnership Model in Cooperation and Management of Sembilan Gili Beach Tourism, Genting, Sumenep District
Authors: Tini Dwi Listia Rika , Alfiyah Nur Inna
Published: March 2024

The aim of this research is to describe the Public – Private Partnership model or collaboration between the public sector and the private sector in collaborating and managing Sembilan Beach Tourism. The cooperation model or Public Private Partnership in this research looks in more detail at each type which is seen from several provisions, namely: Asset Ownership, Operations and Management, Capital Investment, Commercial Risk, Duration of Collaboration, Need for technical expertise and managerial expertise, Need for Efficiency Operations, Large financial investments, Need for Political Commitment, Determination of Service Tariffs, Regulatory Framework, Information. The results of this research show that the Bringsang Village Government uses the Public-Private Partnerhip model in collaborating with the private sector. The variant used as the basis for cooperation is the BOT or Build-Operate-Transfer model which contains the simple meaning that this cooperation is related to development, management and at a predetermined time the authority to provide these services will be returned to the government. However, the reality on the ground turns out that there are several conditions of this cooperation model that are not fulfilled or even exceed the capacity of one of the parties in the cooperation for the development, development and management of Pantai Sembilan Tourism. However, apart from some discrepancies and also some adjustments to the characteristics and offers that might be taken into consideration by both parties, what needs to be noted is that this cooperation model can now be said to have succeeded in achieving its initial objectives. Agreement.
