"Communication covers the media": analysis of the characteristics of gathering information from the Israeli media, its translation, and publication by Hezbollah: the al-A'hed website as a test case.
Authors: Flamer Netanel
Published: March 2024

Hezbollah has been active in the media since its inception. This article seeks to characterize a meeting between two efforts of Hezbollah in this space: publishing information on its behalf on the variety of platforms it operates and collecting information from the Israeli media. As part of the research, approximately 600 articles examined that Hezbollah collected from the Israeli media, translated, and published as part of the Ein ila al-aa'do section of the al-A'hed website belonging to the organization. By examining the content of the articles and tagging them according to keywords, the article presents the degree of prevalence of the various contents in the articles translated and published by Hezbollah as a basis for analyzing the contribution of this activity to the organization both on the intelligence level, of gathering visible information for the needs of the organization and on the level of consciousness, of echoing relevant messages to the Lebanese and Arab target audience according to the organization's interests. In this way, the article adds another layer to understanding Hezbollah's media activity. It is a test case for the contribution of this activity for the non-state or sub-state actors in their struggle against a democratic state in an asymmetrical campaign.

Giant condylomata acuminata is a rare intermediate state between benign condyloma and squamous cell carcinoma. They are related to HPV 6 & 11 infections and if left untreated can increase in size and become destructive. This case was managed in a multidisciplinary setting, involving the use of preoperative vascular intervention and surgical resection by plastic surgery and gynaecology teams. Small focuses of early squamous cell carcinoma were present when the surgical specimen was examined. We discuss the important considerations when managing patients presenting with similar chronic lesions and the processes involved in managing this case the way we did.
Reactivity Switch of Platinum with Gallium: From Reverse Water Gas Shift to Methanol Synthesis

Published: March 2024

The development of efficient catalysts for the hydrogenation of CO2 to methanol using “green” H2 is foreseen to be a key step to close the carbon cycle. In this study, we show that small and narrowly distributed alloyed PtGa nanoparticles supported on silica, prepared via a surface organometallic chemistry (SOMC) approach, display notable activity for the hydrogenation of CO2 to methanol, reaching 7.2 mol h-1 molPt-1 methanol formation rate with a 54% intrinsic CH3OH selectivity. This reactivity sharply contrasts with what is expected for Pt, which favors the reverse water gas shift reaction, albeit with a poor activity (2.6 mol h-1 molPt-1). In situ XAS studies indicate that ca. 50% of Ga is reduced to Ga0 yielding alloyed PtGa nanoparticles, while the remaining 50% persist as isolated GaIII sites. The PtGa catalyst slightly dealloys under CO2 hydrogenation conditions and displays redox dynamics with PtGa-GaOx interfaces, responsible for promoting both CO2 hydrogenation activity and methanol selectivity. Further tailoring the catalyst interface by using a carbon support in place of silica enables to improve the methanol formation rate by a factor of ~5.
OM-DIFF: INVERSE-DESIGN OF ORGANOMETALLIC CATALYSTS WITH GUIDED EQUIVARIANT DENOISING DIFFUSION

Published: March 2024

Organometallic complexes are ubiquitous in homogeneous catalysis and other technological applications. Optimization of such complexes for specific applications is challenging due to the large variety of possible metal-ligand combinations and ligand-ligand interactions. Here we present OM-Diff, an inverse design framework based on a diffusion generative model for in-silico design of such complexes from scratch. Given the importance of the spatial structure of a catalyst, the model directly operates on all-atom (including hydrogen) representations in 3D space. To handle the symmetries inherent to that data representation, OM-Diff combines an equivariant diffusion model and an equivariant property predictor to drive sampling at inference time. The model can conditionally generate novel ligands beyond those in the training dataset. We demonstrate the potential of the proposed approach by designing catalysts for a family of cross-coupling reactions, and validating a selection of novel proposed compounds with DFT calculations.

Published: March 2024

Background: Persistent, Mobile and Toxic (PMT), or very Persistent and very Mobile (vPvM) substances are a wide class of chemicals that are recalcitrant to degradation, easily transported, and potentially harmful to humans and the environment. Due to their persistence and mobility, these substances are often widespread in the environment once emitted, particularly in water resources, causing increased challenges during water treatment processes. Some PMT/vPvM substances such as GenX and perfluorobutane sulfonic acid have been identified as substances of very high concern (SVHCs) under the European Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) regulation. With hundreds to thousands of potential PMT/vPvM substances yet to be assessed and managed, effective and efficient approaches that avoid a case-by-case assessment and prevent regrettable substitution are necessary to achieve the European Union's zero-pollution goal for a non-toxic environment by 2050. Main: Substance grouping has helped global regulation of some highly hazardous chemicals, e.g., through the Montreal Protocol and the Stockholm Convention. This article explores the potential of grouping strategies for identifying, assessing and managing PMT/vPvM substances. The aim is to facilitate early identification of lesser-known or new substances that potentially meet PMT/vPvM criteria, prompt additional testing, avoid regrettable use or substitution, and integrate into existing risk management strategies. Thus, this article provides an overview of PMT/vPvM substances and reviews the definition of PMT/vPvM criteria and various lists of PMT/vPvM substances available. It covers the current definition of groups, compares the use of substance grouping for hazard assessment and regulation, and discusses the advantages and disadvantages of grouping substances for regulation. The article then explores strategies for grouping PMT/vPvM substances, including read-across, structural similarity and commonly retained moieties, as well as the potential application of these strategies using cheminformatics to predict P, M and T properties for selected examples. Conclusion: Effective substance grouping can accelerate the assessment and management of PMT/vPvM substances, especially for substances that lack information. Advances to read-across methods and cheminformatics tools are needed to support efficient and effective chemical management, preventing broad entry of hazardous chemicals into the global market and favouring safer and more sustainable alternatives.
Native cryo-correlative light and synchrotron X-ray fluorescence imaging of proteins and essential metals in developing neurons

Published: March 2024

Essential metals such as iron, copper and zinc are required for a wide variety of biological processes. For example, they act as cofactors in many proteins, conferring enzymatic activity or structural stability. Interactions between metals and proteins are often difficult to characterize due to the low concentration of metals in biological tissues and the sometimes labile nature of the chemical bonds involved. To better understand the cellular functions of essential metals, we correlate protein localization, using fluorescence light microscopy (FLM), and metal distribution with synchrotron X-ray fluorescence (SXRF), a high-sensitivity and high-spatial-resolution technique for metal imaging. Both chemical imaging modalities are implemented under cryogenic conditions to preserve native cell structure and chemical element distribution. As a proof of concept, we applied cryo-FLM and cryo-SXRF correlative imaging to cultured primary hippocampal neurons. Neurons were labeled under live conditions with fluorescent F-actin and tubulin dyes, then samples were flash-frozen and observed in a frozen hydrated state. This methodology, cryo-FLM combined to cryo-SXRF, revealed the distribution of iron, copper and zinc relative to F-actin and tubulin in the growth cones, dendrites, axons, and axonal en passant boutons of developing neurons.
An analysis of factors affecting access to credit in the smallholder agricultural sector in T/A Mpinganjira – Mangochi district
Authors: John Banda Mtelemuka
Published: March 2024

The underperformance of Malawi's agricultural sector, particularly in the T/A Mpinganjira – Mangochi area, can be attributed mostly to smallholders' resistance to transitioning from traditional agriculture to a more scientific and technology-driven approach. Access to financial services, particularly finance, is one of the obstacles preventing smallholders from rising to the occasion. Using a logistic regression model inside the principle component regression framework, the aim of this study is to investigate the factors that might affect smallholders' capacity to obtain financing. The results demonstrated the influence of various factors on smallholder farmers' access to financing and their capacity to transition to a more scientific and technologically oriented agriculture sector. These factors included the amount of income from both farms and non-farm sources, pensions and remittances, farm size, availability of family labor, land ownership, savings, and repayment capacity. The results offer vital direction for the institutional setup needed to improve credit availability in Malawi.

Authors: Md. Imran Sheikh
Published: March 2024

This study seeks to explore the factors influencing the job satisfaction of academic professionals at science and technology universities in Bangladesh. Among the different categories of public universities, three science and technology universities were randomly selected from three different administrative regions in Bangladesh for this study. The study's data came from a semi-structured survey questionnaire. This study used descriptive statistics and regression analysis to analyze and explore the different factors of job satisfaction associated with Assistant Professors through the application of IBM SPSS-26. This study identified six different factors of job satisfaction of academic professionals in the science and technology universities in Bangladesh, such as job in general, remuneration, work environment, social relationships with colleagues, payoffs, and work stress-related factors. The findings of the study revealed that RS, PS, and SR had a statistically significant impact on job satisfaction, but GJ, WE, and WS had a direct positive but insignificant influence on the job satisfaction of academic professionals. The findings also revealed that academic professionals' job satisfaction and dissatisfaction largely depend on these aforementioned factors. A variety of respondent perceptions were employed to describe the job satisfaction dimensions of academic professionals. There was some overlap in picking the university category. This study, for example, excludes all categories of universities except the science and technology universities in Bangladesh. The research's conclusions enlighten academic professionals about what really matters in terms of job satisfaction. The results also provide a useful framework for the relevant authorities, human resources departments, university administration, and policymakers by diving deep into the most important aspects of different factors of job satisfaction associated with academic professionals. This research uses theoretical assumptions and empirical evidence to build a complete model of the relationships between various factors in the job satisfaction of academic professionals. The findings of this study have real-world implications since they look into important aspects of current dimensions of job satisfaction among academic professionals that have the potential to affect their jobs.

Authors: Shen Dongmei
Published: March 2024

Objective: To explore the application effect of painless delivery technology in clinical obstetrics. Methods: Clinical data of 900 women who gave birth were collected and randomly divided into groups A and B, each comprising 450 cases. Group A served as the control group, while Group B acted as the observation group. Group A underwent natural delivery, whereas Group B received combined spinal-epidural anesthesia for painless delivery. The effects of these two delivery techniques were comprehensively evaluated based on maternal pain level, postpartum recovery, postpartum lactation, and other relevant indicators. Results: In Group B, there were more individuals with pain levels of 0 and 1 compared to Group A, and significantly fewer individuals with pain levels of 2 and 3 than in Group A (P < 0.05). This suggests that the pain level in Group B was significantly superior to that in Group A. Additionally, postpartum recovery indicators among mothers in Group A were significantly higher than those in Group B (P < 0.05). Furthermore, the time for the onset of colostrum mobilization and adequate breast milk production was significantly longer in Group A compared to Group B (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Combined spinal-epidural anesthesia with ropivacaine + sufentanil demonstrates a positive application effect in painless delivery.
