Design and simulation of high gain two stage operational amplifier using 180n technology with Nano range
Authors: Ahmed Wael saad
Published: May 2023

In this study, two different types of op-amps were designed and tested at a lower voltage. These op-amps use less power and can be used at a lower voltage than traditional op-amps, which makes them a good option for certain applications. The designer predicted that the power output would be high when there is a high voltage supply, and LT Spice software was used to analyze the design. Today, low-powered operational amplifiers are in high demand for many applications, such as in medical and communication systems. Some of the reasons why op-amps are in high demand are because they are versatile and have a wide range of applications. Additionally, they are often less expensive than more powerful amplifiers, which makes them a good option for certain applications. This op-amp has a good phase margin, so it can handle large loads with ease. It was created using a 180-millisecond process and CMOS technology. A 3-pF compensation capacitor and a 10-pF load capacitor are suitable for it, as the op-amp has a phase margin of 90.84 degrees...

A New Fractal Topologies Based on Hypercube Interconnection Network
Authors: Khudhair Muslim Mohsin , Rabee Furkan , Al-Rammahi Adil
Published: May 2023

A parallel processing system's most crucial part is a network interconnection that links its processors. The hypercube topology has exciting features, making it an excellent option for parallel processing applications. This paper presents two innovative configurations of interconnection networks based on fractal Sierpinski and a hypercube. These are the Sierpinski Triangle Topology (STT) and Sierpinski Carpet Topology (SCT). Compared to a hypercube, the Sierpinski Triangle topology (STT) noticed a significant decrease in the number of nodes and links as large networks grew. Hence, it considers a great way to reduce costs because it uses fewer nodes and links. The average distance is also shorter, which is better. Despite it has a smaller bisection width and a more degree than a hypercube by one. The Sierpinski Carpet Topology (SCT) has the advantage of having a higher bisection width than a hypercube. That is preferable because it places a lower restriction on the difficulty of parallel algorithms. In contrast, the drawback of this topology is that it has a diameter and average distance more than a hypercube.
A Parallel Approach for Optimizing KNN Classification Algorithm in Big Data
Authors: Aljanabi Muna H. , Aljanabi Kadhim B. S.
Published: May 2023

Big data classification is the study of how to classify large amounts of data, which conventional data mining methods typically find challenging to handle. The most popular data mining technique is the K-Nearest Neighbor(KNN) classifier because of its efficiency and simplicity. The sequential KNN classifier can't handle a huge amount of data due to its highly required calculation nature, so it is improved by using a parallel technique supported by Map Reduce. This model enables us to classify the massive amount of data that exceeds terabytes. Similar to the original KNN model, this parallel implementation offers the same classification rate but less time complexity. In this paper, parallel KNN with Map Reduce has been proposed using a Hadoop multi-data node cluster. First, the dataset split into n blocks, and in each node, the mapper and reducer will be executed. The mapper phase is responsible for calculating the Euclidean distance between the training set and the targeted point, and the output of the mapper is a set of pairs of  that serve as the reducer's input. In reducer, the minimum k distances are determined, and the class with maximum occurrence will represent the predicted class.
The results showed a significant improvement in time complexity for the proposed approach over the traditional one. A New York criminal data set with a size of 6.5 million records was used in this work. The tuples Latitude and Longitude were used to determine the nearest neighbors, while the Patrol-BORO was used as class label.
Image Denoising using Mean Filter
Authors: JEBUR RUSUL SABAH
Published: May 2023

The first step in any image processing process is to remove noise from an image, and this is the aim of every de-noising technique. The noise removal technique should be used carefully to avoid introducing artifacts that could cause the image to become blurry. In this paper, five levels of Gaussian noise and Salat & Peppers are applied to original images to add noise (σ=5, σ=10, σ=15, σ=20, σ=25 σ=50) and also combination Gaussian and Salt & peepers are used with noise level 25.  Removing noising is filtered in mean filter. Performance evaluation of the mean filter with three methods of noise is provided. After testing all the approaches with Gaussian noise σ =15, the results revealed that Lena's image was superior to the others. The other photos, however, performed better for the Gaussian levels 20 and 25 than the Lena image. With all types of noise, the mean filter produced good results.

Authors: Jalota Chietra , Chawla Nidhi Kataria Chawla
Published: May 2023

An issue of classification may arise when learning classifiers use skewed or imbalanced datasets. In case of an imbalanced dataset, the majority of examples are with one class whereas the other class which is normally considered as the most important class, is however signified by a minor share of instances. By using this type of data, the outcome of machine-learning models would be ineffective. There is a term (High training reliability) used to define preconceptions in between one instance against all other illustrations of the class. In this paper, most important methods used to solve the class imbalance problem i.e. data-level, algorithm-level, hybrid, cost-sensitive learning, deep learning etc. including their advantages and limitations are discussed in detail. Performance and efficiency of classifiers are evaluated using a numerous evaluation metrics such as Accuracy, Precision, Recall, F-Measure.

Authors: Islam Md. Nur , Islam Md. Shajedul
Published: May 2023

Climate factors’ consequence on human performance has occurred as a worldwide apprehension in the earlier 30 years. This study explores climate factors’ influence on Aman rice production in Bangladesh. Co-integration and Vector Error Correction Model approximation procedure is applied to measure the climate-crop harvest interrelation on the basis of country-level time series data for the time 1972-2019. Changing in mean maximum and minimum temperature, annual men rainfall, and average humidity are used as characteristic variables for climate factors. The result of the vector error correction model denotes that both in the long-run and short-run, average maximum temperature and average total rainfall inversely affect Aman rice yield in Bangladesh respectively. Average minimum temperature and average humidity positively affect Aman rice production in the short run respectively. Fertilizers and irrigation have a positive influence on Aman rice yield in the short-run correspondingly. Conversely, labor has a robust negative consequence on Aman rice yield in the short-run in Bangladesh agriculture. Policymakers would develop policies to control temperature and introduce heat-tolerant rice varieties and adaptation measures to sustain Aman rice production in Bangladesh.
Increasing Number of Cases of Divorce in India after
Lockdown
Authors: Sarfraz Momin Abdullah , Bano Ajaz Ansari Shabnoor
Published: May 2023

When a marital status is dissolved between a man and woman it is known as Divorce. After petition is filed by the women or man, the separation is granted by the court of law. It had been observed that about 7 out of the 10 calls received by an advocate in a day are about divorce. To be specific, it is noted that there is 20% growth in divorce cases after the court resumes after lockdown. Bill passed in the parliament in the mid-1950s provided for women property rights, outlawed polygamy and allowed partners to file for divorce. The laws were further twisted in 1976 to allow divorce by mutual consent. Divorce is one of the most horrible and painful encounters in an individual's life. Divorce is the end of a marriage, dropping the legal obligations and duties of marriage and dissolving the obligations of marital status among a couple. Divorce is perhaps the hardest situation a family can go through. Not so far in the past the word 'Divorce' was unimaginable. Individuals even delayed their enduring marriages to maintain a strategic distance from divorce but this situation isn’t the same any longer. Everywhere throughout the world, the rate of divorce among couples is growing at a disturbing rate.

"According to the latest PIF report on the protection of the financial interests of the European Union, in 2021 Romania reported to the European Commission fraud related to European projects worth 1.4 billion euros. The reported amount is quite impressive as it represents over 80% of the total amounts reported as being fraudulently obtained in 2021 by all member states, making Romania a true performer in this regard at the European level. Starting from these values, using descriptive statistics, the study analyzes the data reported by Romania in the last ten years, compared to the other EU member states, data extracted from the PIF Reports (2012-2021), trying to verify if Romania's status as a champion in terms of fraud with European funds is fully deserved or circumstantial. Although the numbers show that Romania is indeed a performer in this regard, both in terms of value and the number of reported cases, these values must be viewed in context, as they are influenced by a wide series of factors, including reporting errors, the capacity and willingness of member states to detect irregularities, as well as the particularities of the awarding procedures and contracting periods. Also, in the end, the paper presents some recommendations for strengthening efforts to combat the phenomenon of fraud related to EU funds in Romania."

Ao estudar as características boas e saudáveis das pessoas, como gratidão, espiritualidade, otimismo e criatividade, a psicologia positiva é importante, como discute esse artigo. O objetivo do estudo foi examinar os níveis de gratidão dos estudantes universitários e relacioná-los com suas experiências de apoio social, bem-estar subjetivo e satisfação com a vida. 186 pessoas que responderam a uma pesquisa online compuseram a amostra. A Escala de Apoio Social do Medical Outcomes Study, a Escala de Satisfação com a Vida e a Escala Brasileira de Gratidão foram algumas das ferramentas utilizadas. De acordo com os achados, a maioria dos participantes eram mulheres, solteiras e com renda anual de até dois salários mínimos. Em termos de apoio social, verificou-se que o envolvimento social e o apoio material foram altamente percebidos, enquanto o apoio afetivo e emocional não, que teve impressões mais baixas. A média pontual revelou que a amostra estava acima da média em termos de gratidão. A maioria dos participantes relatou algum nível de satisfação com a vida, mas apenas 31,1% relataram altos níveis de prazer. Conclui-se que os limites de contato, ocorridos durante a pandemia, podem impactar fatores como apoio afetivo e emocional, não obstante os níveis positivos de gratidão. Este estudo aumenta nosso conhecimento sobre as conexões entre gratidão, apoio social e bem-estar entre estudantes universitários, fornecendo dados pertinentes para tratamentos subsequentes nessa população.

Efficacy of cyanoacrylate adhesive as a mounting medium for soft tissue sections as an alternative to Kirkpatrick and Lendrum's DPX
Authors: S Abirami
Published: May 2023

Introduction: Mounting is the final stage in histologically preparing a slide and creates a permanent the bond between the coverslip and the slide, preventing breakage, air drying artefacts, and stain fading.
Materials & methods: In this study, fifty slides were prepared, twenty-five of which were mounted using DPX and twenty five using cyanoacrylate adhesive. The slides were assessed for clarity of nuclear and cytoplasmic details, adhesion between coverslip and slide, and the presence of air bubbles by two blinded observers.
Results: The results showed that adhesion between coverslip and slide was better when mounted with cyanoacrylate adhesive, but better clarity of nuclear and cytoplasmic details and minimal air bubble entrapment was seen when tissue sections were mounted using DPX.
Conclusion: Therefore, the use of cyanoacrylate adhesive cannot be an alternative to DPX for mounting soft tissue sections.

Barley is an important food crop particularly for animal feeding and human food over the word, which infested by Rhyzopertha dominica (F.) insects at stored grain stage. Using modern methods of protection of stored grains from insect pests within integrated management (IPM) programs is an important approach. Ten hulled Egyptian barley cultivars were grown at Sakha Agricultural research station farm during two growing seasons 2020/ 2021 and 2021/ 2022 to evaluated their susceptible to R. dominica after 180 days from seeds storage. The influence of using phenol application on R. dominica and chemical properties of the barley grain were evaluated. The results showed that the barley cultivars (Giza123, Giza 2000, Giza137 and Giza138) were the lowest cultivars infested by R. dominica, which showed least reduction of weight loss and least percentage of grain infestation. Positive significant correlation was found among all insect infestation traits with protein content and total carbohydrates content. The loadings of principal component analysis PCA described about 96.4 % of the total variability of all studied traits. The heatmap cluster analysis, clustered all the ten hulled barley into two major clusters based on their productivity, grain quality and R. dominica infestation characters. Using phenol concentration of (0.4 g ai / kg) exhibited high toxic for R. dominica insect, showed lower LC50 values for Giza 132, Giza2000, Giza137 and Giza138 by (1.80, 2.08, 2.60, and 2.60 g ai / kg grains), high response index percentage (100.00, 85.50, 69.23 and 69.23%) with complete reduction of adult progeny of R. dominica after 120 hrs. of exposure. The technological quality of barley cultivars grains haven’t showing any significant change after treated with different phenol treatments.

Authors: Valentini Nicholas , Breeden Madison , Felley Laura E. , Roberts Nathan B. , Dinsmore Maia , Krumheuer Aaron , Grassley Colleen , Montas Sacha , Bassin Benjamin , Phillips Kylee
Published: May 2023

Introduction: We present six adenovirus cases that emerged from a cluster of respiratory illnesses within a college population. Two patients required intensive care with complicated hospital courses and experienced residual symptoms. Four additional patients were evaluated in the emergency department (ED) with two additional diagnoses of neuroinvasive disease. These cases represent the first known occurrences of neuroinvasive adenovirus infections in healthy adults.Case Series: An individual presented to the ED with fever, altered mental status, and seizures after being found unresponsive in his apartment. His presentation was concerning for significant central nervous system pathology. Shortly after his arrival, a second individual presented with similar symptoms. Both required intubation and admission to a critical care setting. Over a 24-hour period, four additional individuals presented to the ED with moderate severity symptoms. All six individuals tested positive for adenovirus in their respiratory secretions. A provisional diagnosis of neuroinvasive adenovirus was made after consultation with infectious diseases. Conclusion: This cluster of cases appears to represent the first known reported diagnosis of neuroinvasive adenovirus in healthy young individuals. Our cases were also unique in demonstrating a significant spectrum of disease severity. Over 80 individuals in the broader college community ultimately tested positive for adenovirus in respiratory samples. As respiratory viruses continue to challenge our healthcare systems, new spectrums of disease are being discovered. We believe clinicians should be aware of the potential severity of neuroinvasive adenovirus disease.

Published: May 2023

Introduction: Regional anesthesia has long been used in a perioperative setting for the treatment of both pre- and postoperative pain. Recently, this skill has been brought into the emergency department (ED) as a modality for treating acute pain as the pendulum shifts away from an opiate-based armamentarium and toward a multimodal future. In this case series, we describe a way to use the pectoralis nerve block I and II in the treatment of pain with regard to breast abscesses and/or breast cellulitis managed in the ED.Case Series: This paper describes three cases, all of which consist of a painful complaint in the thoracic region. The first was a patient diagnosed with a breast abscess. The second patient was diagnosed with breast cellulitis. Finally, the third patient was diagnosed with a large breast abscess that extended into the axilla. All three sustained immense relief with the pectoralis block.Conclusion: While further research is needed on a larger scale, preliminary data suggests that the ultrasound-guided pectoralis nerve block is an effective and safe modality of acute pain control in regard to breast and axillary abscesses along with breast cellulitis.

Background: Pulmonary mass-like lesions are one of the common manifestations of respiratory disorders. Differential diagnosis of these lesions is a major challenge in imaging studies. Objectives: This study aimed to explore the efficacy of spectral computed tomography (CT) features combined with conventional CT features in the differential diagnosis of pulmonary mass-like lesions. Patients and Methods: This case-control study was performed on a malignant group consisting of patients and a benign group consisting of controls. The imaging characteristics and spectral CT parameters were evaluated in 77 patients who met the inclusion criteria. A multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to determine independent predictors of malignant pulmonary lump-like lesions. Three models were established, including a radiomic feature model, a spectral CT model, and a combined model. A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was also plotted to evaluate the diagnostic efficiency of the models. Results: Some CT features were significantly different between the malignant and benign groups, including the long-axis diameter (44.86 ± 18.42 in the malignant group vs. 55.59 ± 22.57 in the benign group; P = 0.07), mediastinal lymphadenopathy (25.00% in the benign group vs. 62.26% in the malignant group; P = 0.02), and mediastinal lymph node confluence (4.17% in the benign group vs. 41.51% in the malignant group; P = 0.01). The CT values at 40 keV (157.25 ± 79.23 vs. 148.46 ± 25.36, P = 0.047) and K40 - 70 keV (2.76 ± 2.05 vs. 2.52 ± 0.60, P = 0.04) were significantly higher in the benign group compared to the malignant group in the arterial phase (AP). Besides, the iodine concentration (IC) (14.73 ± 10.65 vs. 13.44 ± 3.24, P = 0.039; 17.52 ± 5.29 vs. 13.87 ± 5.81, P = 0.035), normalized iodine concentration (NIC) (0.15 ± 0.06 vs. 0.11 ± 0.05, P = 0.015; 0.41 ± 0.11 vs. 0.35 ± 0.10, P = 0.017), and Zeff value (8.46 ± 0.63 vs. 8.43 ± 0.28, P = 0.034; 8.60 ± 0.29 vs. 8.39 ± 0.33, P = 0.035) were significantly higher in the benign group compared to the malignant group, both in the AP and venous phase (VP). The logistic regression model, integrating CT features and spectral CT parameters, showed the highest diagnostic efficacy (area under the curve [AUC], 0.956; sensitivity, 87.5%; specificity, 90.6%). Conclusion: The quantitative spectral CT parameters, combined with conventional CT features, could help distinguish benign and malignant pulmonary mass-like lesions, providing an essential basis for developing treatment plans.

Background: The flavonoid 2′,4′-dihydroxy-5′-(1′′′,1′′′-dimethylalil)-8-prenylpinocembrin (8PP), obtained from Dalea elegans roots has demonstrated antifungal activities. It also overcomes the resistance to azoles in azole-resistant Candida albicans (RCa). It collaborates with fluconazole to decrease cell growth and viability and inhibits ABC cdr transporters at the carrying site and associated ATPase. In addition, 8PP reduces cell viability dependent on oxidoreductase activity in planktonic cultures. It shows a dual oxidant-antioxidant activity with accumulating endogenous reactive oxygen species (ROS) in RCa biofilms. Objectives: This work evaluated the effects of 8PP, fluconazole, and their combination on RCa viability, which is dependent on cell permeability. Methods: RCa 12 - 99 strain of oral origin was used. Its viability was assessed through propidium iodide (PI) cell uptake and observing yeast morphology by fluorescence microscopy. Results: RCa 12 - 99 strain cells, collected in the mid-exponential phase, incorporated PI and completely stained red after incubation with 8PP or fluconazole at concentrations that inhibit cell growth and viability. When combined at 125 µM of each, 8PP and fluconazole appeared more effective than separately. The results indicated that the compounds tested impaired cell permeability directly or indirectly. Conclusions: 8PP and fluconazole and their combination caused alterations in cell permeability in azole-resistant C. albicans. They were effective both individually and in combination.

Background: Numerous equations are applied in order to estimate the glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Objectives: This study aimed to spot the optimal equation that accurately estimates GFR and, therefore, the chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage in renal transplant patients. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 58 renal transplant patients. Their venous blood samples were obtained for serum creatinine and cystatin C determination used to calculate estimated GFR (eGFR). The average contrast of GFR in each equation was calculated using the Bland-Altman method. The correlation, bias, imprecision, and 10% and 30% accuracy were compared between the eGFR cystatin C and creatinine. Concordance between both equations for CKD staging was assessed. The classification of patients was also investigated. Results: Bland-Altman plots and bias demonstrated that eGFR by the abbreviated modification of diet in renal disease (Ab-MDRD) was the most accurate compared with chronic kidney disease epidemiology collaboration (CKD-EPI) cystatin C, followed by CKD-EPI eGFR creatinine. With reference to CKD-EPI cystatin C, the imprecision of the equations was approximately similar to Ab-MDRD, and CKD-EPI creatinine is still better than the Cockcroft-gault (CG) formula. They also showed good 30% accuracy. Finally, our finding suggested that Ab-MDRD and CKD-EPI eGFR creatinine might be the best-performing equation in the classification of the CKD stages in a cutoff of 60 mL/min/1.73 m2. Conclusions: Due to the high cost and potential delay in measuring cystatin C, it would be much more appropriate to measure Ab-MDRD; after that, CKD-EPI eGFR creatinine as an alternative approach in order to facilitate rapid clinical decision in renal transplant patients.

Educating entrepreneurial engineers. To be context-aware or generic?
Authors: Saukkonen Juha
Published: May 2023

Entrepreneurship education (EE) is high on the agenda of governments and universities globally. With the new forms of entrepreneurship, there has been a surge of specific training programs and materials, e.g. ones dedicated to social entrepreneurship as well as for science & technology-based entrepreneurship. Parallel to this division of EE into subsegments, tools and methods such as the Business Model Canvas (BMC), Lean Start-Up and Customer Development methods, or Disciplined Entrepreneurship by MIT have spread to be used by EE practitioners globally. With the increasing globalization, virtualization, and mobility of learners, EE courses have learners differing in 1) their cultural context that reflects in their values and beliefs, 2) their educational and professional background, and 3) in the area - market and industry - where they aim to start their business. E.g., the process of entrepreneurship is likely to differ in dynamics when going into medical technology vs. mobile gaming, yet some aspects may be mutual to both businesses. Thus, EE education is facing a dilemma: How unified and non-context specific should the approach of the educator be to deliver EE in scale and keep the EE program manageable vs. how much to focus on the individuals or teams and their specific context. The paper draws its conclusions based on the quantitative survey done among 60 entrepreneurship educators globally in February-March 2022. The global respondent pool consisted of educators diverse in the context they come from, institutions and faculties they work at, and the type of entrepreneurs they have trained. The data analysis is based on descriptive statistics based on the assessments done by the respondents on 4- or 5-step Likert scales on perceived current EE practices and the perceived importance of different factors in successfully context-aware EE. The core taxonomy used to elaborate on context is the PESTEL-analysis of the environment, consisting of Political, Economical, Social, Technological, Ecological and Legal factors. The results indicate that the economical-technological consideration is weighted in today´s EE generally speaking, whereas the truly context-aware EE would balance that leaning to economical and technological matters with more factors, especially the one of social context. Another takeaway to participants is a set of proposed EE designs that deal with the contradicting forces.
