Authors: Kumar Meena Mahendra , Agnihotri Shashi Prakash , Singh Jitendra , Ali Ikbal
Published: May 2022

Background: Smoking cessation is the most powerful intervention to modify progression of chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease (COPD), and nicotine dependence is one of the most important determinants of success or failure in
smoking cessation. Thus, nicotine dependence status and factors associated with moderate to high nicotine
Dependence in patients with COPD needs to be evaluated.
Method: A hospital based cross-sectional observational study performed on 50 patients with COPD attending the
outpatient department at smoking cessation clinic, Institute of Respiratory Diseases, SMS Medical College, Jaipur,
Rajasthan during 2019-2020.
Result: Multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that low education status,age 60 yrs.,and mild to moderate airflow
obstruction were related to moderate to high nicotine dependence.
Conclusion: Nicotine dependence does not correlate with smoking amount, but with education level, age, and severity
of airflow obstruction. Physicians should provide different strategies of smoking cessation intervention for current
smokers with COPD according to their education levels,age,and severity of airflow obstruction.

Proactive Robot Movements in a Crowd by Predicting and Considering the Social Influence
Authors: Moder Martin , Pauli Josef
Published: May 2022

Dense crowds are challenging scenes for an autonomous mobile robot. Planning in such an interactive environment requires predicting uncertain human intention and reaction to future robot actions. Concerning these capabilities, we propose a probabilistic forecasting model which factorizes the human motion uncertainty as follows: 1) A (conditioned) normalizing flow (CNF) estimates the densities of human goals. 2) We forecast the crowd’s trajectory density towards the goals by autoregressively (AR) inferring the individual social action densities simultaneously for a dynamic number of persons. We extend the underlying Gaussian AR framework with our SocialSampling to counteract collisions during sampling. Based on this, a model-predictive policy that infers about the social influence of a controlled robot on neighboring humans is created. For this, we formulate a novel Social Influence (SI) objective that measures the divergence between a scene prediction conditioned by the robot plan and a scene prediction independent of the robot plan. The experiments with our metrics on real datasets show that the model achieves stateof-the-art accuracy in predicting pedestrian movements and remains collision-free, which is still often neglected in current methods. Furthermore, our evaluations show that robot policy with our SI objective produces safe and proactive behaviors, such as taking evasive action at the right time to avoid conflicts.
A Collaborative Perspective for Blockchain & Testing

Published: May 2022

Blockchain technology is employed in mission-critical systems with high reliability requirements. Therefore, rigorous testing is essential for the adoption of this technology. Many techniques have been utilized in testing the trustworthiness and security of blockchain-based systems. These include fuzz testing, model-based testing, search-based testing and concolic testing. Additionally, blockchain technology can be utilized for improving the software and systems testing processes in general. We present a survey on this interplay between blockchain and testing. We categorize studies that apply testing techniques on blockchain-based systems and those studies that benefit from the blockchain technology for improving the testing process. We also propose a reference architecture for utilizing blockchain technology in the context of certification testing.

The study of flaviviruses and Chikungunya virus seroprevalence in Nicaragua — virus-specific antibody avidity assay as a tool for differential diagnosis
Authors: Atrasheuskaya A. V. , Kazakova E. V. , Zhirenkina E. N. , Trukhin V. P. , Ignatyev G. M.
Published: May 2022

Introduction. Arboviral infections are a rising public health concern not only for some individual countries, but also for the entire world due to the repeated outbreaks over the past decade.The aim was to conduct a seroprevalence study of Dengue (DENV), Zika (ZIKV), Yellow fever (YFV) and Chikungunya (CHIKV) viruses using a limited number of samples in Nicaragua.Materials and methods. Total 200 serum samples collected previously in Nicaragua were analyzed simultaneously. Commercially available diagnostic kits, as well as in-house methods were used. The avidity of antibodies (IgG) in positive serum samples was assessed after the treatment with 8M urea.Results. 85 serum samples (42.5%) contained IgG antibodies to one or several viruses simultaneously. IgG antibodies only to one virus were detected in 46 serum samples (23%) with the avidity index (AI) ≥ 30%. Among 39 samples (19.5%) that contained IgG antibodies to several viruses, only in 19 samples (9.5%) IgG antibodies with high AI (≥ 30%) to several viruses were detected. In 16 serum samples (8.0%), IgG antibodies to DENV with a high AI and antibodies to ZIKV and/or YFV with a low AI 30% were detected.Discussion. The results obtained in ELISA testing were corrected, since only IgG antibodies with a high AI confirm the past infection. The analysis of the specific IgG antibody avidity helped not only to confirm the cases of combined or sequential infection in the past, but also to discriminate the cross-reactive IgG antibodies induced by closely related DENV, ZIKV and YFV. The presence of cross-reactive IgG antibodies, on the one hand, make it difficult to determine the real seroprevalence of flavivirus infections, and, on the other hand, may increase the risk of antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE) of the disease, which is well-known for the secondary Dengue fever and for the consecutive infection with DENV and ZIKV.Conclusion. The analysis of virus-specific antibody avidity made it possible not only to distinguish recent from the past infection, but also to discriminate the cross-reactive antibodies with the low avidity.

Published: May 2022

Introduction. Disease severity in hospitalized COVID-19 patients correlates with the relative content in the blood of a specific low-density neutrophilic granulocyte (NG) population, whose cells are characterized by reduced granularity, high heterogeneity in the expression of FcᵧRIIIb (CD16) and a tendency to spontaneous autolysis (netosis).The aim of the study was to compare the intensity of NG degranulation and the FcᵧRIIIb expression by these cells in blood of patients with COVID-19 and convalescents.Materials and methods. The blood leukocytes of 40 patients diagnosed with COVID-19, 33 convalescents and 20 healthy donors (control) were examined using flow cytometry. To identify NG (CD16+-granulocytes) and to assess the surface expression of the netosis molecular trigger (FcᵧRIIIb), a single-color reagent of labeled monoclonal antibodies CD16-FITC was used. Immunophenotyping of lymphocytes was performed using two four-color reagents. In addition, cell debris content was determined in each Lyse/No-Wash-stained whole blood sample. The presence of neutrophils at the stage of netosis was confirmed by microscopy. Cytokine production was determined on an automatic enzyme immunoassay analyzer.Results. Against the background of characteristic changes in the lymphocyte subpopulation composition and cytokine production, in blood of COVID-19 patients with acute pneumonia, hypoxia and tachycardia a more intense degranulation of NG (2.6 times), higher degree of CD16 expression heterogeneity (1.8 times) and an increased leukocytolysis intensity (1.6 times) were observed compared to convalescents who have undergone severe and moderate forms of the disease. In convalescents, the degree of differences of these indicators compared to control values varied in concordance with the disease severity.Conclusion. The nature of changes in the parameters studied in COVID-19 patients in the acute phase of the disease and during the period of convalescence confirms the possible mechanism of the development of complications due to an imbalance between the activity of elastase released from NG granules and its plasma inhibitor α1 -antitrypsin.

Rationale. Hepatitis E (HE) is a zooanthroponosis. Domestic pigs are the main reservoir for hepatitis E virus (HEV) in the Republic of Belarus (RB). Considering the well-developed pig farming, there is a high risk of infection spread among the population; however, the scale of virus circulation and patterns of HE epidemiology in the above region are still insufficiently explored.The aim of the study is to assess HEV seroprevalence specific for the HE epidemic process in RB.Materials and methods. Serum samples (n = 2,784) collected from patients of infectious disease departments at hospitals (n = 1,669) and relatively healthy people (n = 1,114) from different RB regions were used to measure the activity of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) by a kinetic rate method as well as IgG antibodies to HEV by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Results. In the group of healthy people, anti-HEV IgG were detected in 7.3% (95% CI, 5.8–9.0). In the group of patients with liver disorders, the detection frequency was significantly higher, reaching 11.2% (95% CI, 9.6–12.9). In the groups of healthy people and patients with elevated ALT levels, the HEV seroprevalence did not depend on their gender or the region of residence. The anti-HEV IgG detection frequency gradually increased among olderage patients and reached the peak levels (15.9% on average) in the over-64 age group.Conclusions. RB is characterized by intensive HEV circulation, while the HE epidemic process is characterized by a latent nature. The actual prevalence of HЕ seromarkers among the RB population exceeds the frequency of diagnosed cases, suggesting insufficient vigilance of healthcare workers towards HE and subclinical forms of infection in most of the patients.

Published: May 2022

Early blight, caused by Alternaria alternata (Fr.) Keissler is a serious disease of potato and other cultivated Solanum species. The molecular components defining defense responses to A. alternata in potato are limited. Host transcript accumulation after A. alternata inoculation of six potato genotypes (10/33/R1, 3/33/R2 and 21/33/R2, resistant to the pathogen, and 8707/106, 8703/804 and 8707/112, susceptible) was examined to develop understanding of mechanisms of their responses to A. alternata genotypes. The marker genes PR-2, ChtA, PR-5, PR1-b, PIN2, ERF3, PAL and LOX, activity of catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POX), polyphenol oxidase (PPOs) and phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL), as well as biomass growth parameters, were analysed. Expression of PR-2, ChtA, PR-5, PR1-b and PAL genes was greatly increased in the inoculated resistant genotypes compared to the susceptible genotypes and un-inoculated controls. Transcription levels of PIN2, ERF3 and LOX genes were decreased in resistant inoculated plants. Simultaneously, activities of POX, SOD and PPOs were greatly increased in the inoculated resistant host genotypes, compared to the susceptible and non-inoculated controls. CAT activity in genotype 21/33/R2 and PAL activity in resistant genotypes 21/33/R2 and 10/33/R1 increased in the susceptible and non-inoculated. Host growth parameters of inoculated plants decreased compared to un-inoculated controls. Knowledge of changes in gene expression levels and enzyme production in defense processes in infected potato plants can inform future studies to identify the defense mechanisms, and assist generation of potato cultivars resistant to early blight.

Penelitian ini merupakan jenis penelitian yuridis empiris untuk mengetahui dan menentukan bagaimana hukum itu berlaku sebagai norma atau das sollen. Hasil penelitian dijelaskan bahwa dalam perspektif Hukum Progresif, SP3 atas Kasus SKL BLBI menegaskan cara pandang KPK yang masih mendasarkan diri kepada ajaran ilmu hukum positif (analytical jurisprudence). Resistensi dari kelompok masyarakat atas langkah KPK tersebut menegaskan posisi KPK yang tidak mampu menghadirkan keadilan substantif.
Design and Build Smart Agriculture Using Cognitive Internet of Things (C IoT)
Authors: Dwi Indriyanti Aries
Published: May 2022

In Indonesia, agriculture is required to be able to develop growth in the region and be able to produce agricultural products that have high competitiveness while also empowering the community. IoT, or commonly known as the Internet of Things (Internet of Things), allows us to connect to various things. For example, we can use a smart farm. This research leads to the implementation of a plant sprayer that uses the Cognitive internet of things that can be integrated into farmers and factories whose raw material uses corn. This irrigation system uses a NodeMCU microcontroller, automatic discharge using a DC water pump, a soil moisture sensor using a capacitive soil moisture v.2 sensor. The system used uses fuzzy logic algorithms as data processing. The sensor data shows the 70% soil moisture value displayed on the smartphone so that the system will water or not automatically until the soil moisture value is as needed. Soil moisture in this system is in 3 criteria, namely dry, normal, and wet. Watering produced by this system with an average time duration of 8 seconds. This farming system is designed to increase productivity and predict problems in agriculture. This analysis illustrates that the Cognitive internet of things has great potential in agricultural technology because it can increase and facilitate corn production for farmers.
Endocrine-disrupting chemicals and their adverse health effects: A review of current knowledge and the Nigerian situation
Authors: Ohayi Robsam Samuel , Chime Onyinye Hope , Ndu Ikenna Kingsley
Published: May 2022

Exposure of humans to certain natural or synthetic chemicals known as endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) can alter different levels of different endocrine functions ranging from synthesis to hormonal actions to metabolism. This disruption may have severe effects on human physiology and health. Some effects may be delayed, only manifesting across generations. The EDCs are ubiquitous in household, pharmaceutical, and industrial products; therefore, humans of all classes, ages, and sexes are readily exposed to several of them over a lifetime. Their harmful effects are believed to occur more in women and children. There is a growing concern among scientists and governments about the adverse effects of EDCs on humans. This has led to a steadily expanding body of research globally on the subject. However, studies investigating possible adverse health effects of EDCs in our country appear negligible. Also, there seems to be no coherent policy thrust from the government for regulating the introduction of EDCs into our environment. This narrative review aimed to provide an overview of the present scientific knowledge about EDCs and the relationships between them and public health and explore the attitude and experience of Nigerian researchers and policymakers about the emerging threat of EDCs and make recommendations for future research and policy direction.

Authors: Valdovinos-Rodríguez Salvador Edmundo , Rogel-Villalba Érika Anastacia
Published: May 2022

El propósito del presente estudio es identificar las competencias que la industria requiere del diseñador gráfico para actualizar su formación universitaria y facilitar una vinculación efectiva en la nueva realidad que enfrenta la sociedad después de la pandemia del COVID-19.
Se busca con esto, explorar el entorno de trabajo de la industria manufacturera o maquiladora (im) desde el diseño gráfico para contribuir en el mediano y largo plazo al fortalecimiento de la vinculación entre la im y los egresados de la carrera de Diseño Gráfico de la Universidad Autónoma de Ciudad Juárez (uacj). Este ejercicio pretende ampliar sus horizontes de empleo y prepararlos para enfrentar los nuevos escenarios, ya que a pesar de que la industria es la principal fuente de trabajo para la sociedad juarence, no existe una plena interacción con los diseñadores gráficos, quienes son ocupados principalmente por las agencias de publicidad y diseño en condiciones poco favorables.
El contexto de la im, ya de por sí complejo, en tan sólo unos meses se ha transformado en una complejidad aún mayor con la pandemia del covid-19. Lo que convierte en un reto la actualización de la educación del diseñador y es urgente preguntarse qué se está haciendo bien en su formación y qué es lo que conviene cambiar. De esta manera lograr a largo plazo mejores condiciones de empleo y desarrollo para los egresados, y en la industria contribuir a aumentar la productividad y a mejorar la calidad de vida de sus trabajadores.
Para alcanzar dicho objetivo, este estudio pretende entender cuáles son las necesidades de comunicación interna de las empresas en la nueva realidad y por tanto qué tipo de apoyo requieren por parte del diseñador gráfico. Con estos elementos se podrá definir qué conocimientos, habilidades y actitudes deben incorporarse en el plan de estudios para desarrollar esas competencias y así contribuir al éxito de la inserción de los diseñadores gráficos en esta área de trabajo para responder a la nueva realidad, llena de retos y oportunidades, que demandan agentes de transformación que entiendan esta era de cambio.

El presente trabajo estudia la resolución formal de la ciudad de San Miguel de Tucumán, en conjunto con la densificación progresiva del tejido urbano y de edificios de su Área Central, y su estrecha relación con el Código de Planificación Urbano y la influencia del mismo en el derecho al acceso de la energía solar. Mediante simulación, que se elabora como metodología de estudio, se revisan los lineamientos respecto de habitabilidad, salubridad y garantías de accesibilidad de energía solar, que propone el Código de Planificación Urbano y su cumplimiento en el Área Central de San Miguel de Tucumán. Se desprende de esta investigación la propuesta de incluir la componente de energía solar en los lineamientos del Código de Planificación Urbano, surge así la idea de un Factor de Sostenibilidad Ambiental Solar (fa.s.a.s), que comprende contenidos del tipo solar, climático, factor de visión de cielo, entre otras. Una nueva mirada de la Planificación Urbana, que entiende la incorporación del recurso solar como parte de una estrategia de diseño para la generación de un nuevo paisaje urbano, una propuesta desde el saneamiento y la habitabilidad de áreas urbanas que están siendo relegadas en pos de los intereses económicos reinantes. La innovación propuesta es algo más que un cambio en el contenido de la legislación y las normativas en los máximos y mínimos edificables, es un avance en los derechos y las garantías de los habitantes de la ciudad en el acceso a la energía solar como fuente de luz y calor.

Published: May 2022

El presente artículo aborda la actualidad del espacio público lineal denominado Alameda en siete ciudades del estado mexicano de Guanajuato, de acuerdo con el enfoque espacial de la arquitectura del paisaje. Históricamente se identificó como prototipo para introducir la naturaleza a la ciudad; aunque ha sido minusvalorado en los estudios regionales de los espacios públicos. Para ello, se realizó un estudio exploratorio a partir de menciones, documentos escritos y fotográficos, que se presentaban en referencias digitales de Internet, realizando visitas de campo para reconocer sus elementos constitutivos; posteriormente se establecieron cuatro categorías: primero, con el seguimiento de la forma empleada para continuar el tipo lineal; segundo, el empleo de álamos en la arborización; tercero, el empleo de mobiliario urbano; cuarto, las invasiones a su diseño original con nuevas funciones; para determinar sus actuales características físico-geográficas, así como identificar sus semejanzas y sus divergencias. Al respecto, se obtuvieron como resultados el reconocimiento de una amplia variedad en formas respecto del tipo original; el empleo de una amplia variedad de árboles; el empleo de un variado mobiliario urbano en su interior; y la constatación de modificaciones e invasiones con funciones no contempladas en su origen, que ponen en peligro su esencia inicial; asimismo, se establece como conclusión la necesidad de futuros estudios que denoten sus valores patrimoniales tangibles e intangibles, así como la apropiación que los usuarios hacen de este espacio público.

The purpose of the modern banking system of any country is to ensure the economic security of the country, the formation of a banking system that will be resilient to crisis. This is due to the fact that the modern development of the banking system is accompanied by an increase in external and internal threats and risks to which the activities of credit institutions are exposed.
When studying the issues of financial stability of the banking system of Georgia, it should be noted that the National Bank of Georgia is a guarantor and a special entity for ensuring the stability of the banking sector of Georgia. The timely decisions and measures taken by them largely contribute to the stable functioning and sustainable development of the banking system of Georgia.
The formation of the concepts of economic security of credit institutions, which make it possible to ensure operational control over the sustainable development of commercial banks, to identify negative trends and determine promising areas of development, at the present stage is the most important condition for ensuring the economic security of credit institutions.
Keywords: Economic security, globalization, banking system sustainability, financial stability, threats.

Development of Agricultural Cooperation - Increasing Factor of Household Efficiency in the Autonomous Republic of Adjara
Authors: Jambul Abuladze Jambul Abuladze
Published: May 2022

In Georgia, during the transition period, the transformation of the agricultural sector is going through difficult processes. Existing economic organizational forms were dismantled as part of the Soviet system and organizational-economic forms based on market principles could not yet be fully formatted. As a result, during the transition period, primary agricultural production was mainly dominated by households, which is characterized with low competitiveness due to less access to modern technologies in the field, scarce resources and insufficient opportunities for market-economic factors. These factors appeared more sharply in Adjara A/R, which, compared to other regions, is more distinguished by small households, high fragmentation, small contour, harsh natural-climatic conditions, etc. It is important, to consider the experience of developed countries to have clear responses to the challenges. Firstly, agricultural cooperation must be promoted and developed, which will be achieved through the implementation of programs with the financial and technical support of state and international donor organizations.

Authors: Hasyim Ahsan Taqwim , Bafadal Azhar , Fyka Samsul Alam
Published: May 2022

This study aims to analyze the financial aspects and the sensitivity of the Trigona sp. honey bee cultivation business in the Landono District, South Konawe Regency. This research was conducted from September 2021 to March 2022 using the case study method in the Madu Mas forest farmer group, with eight people used as informants. Research variables include informant identity and business feasibility analysis. The data analysis used is a quantitative analysis using investment assessment criteria including NPV, Net B/C, IRR, Payback Period, and sensitivity analysis. The results showed that the financial aspect obtained an NPV value of IDR40,139,762, with a discount factor of 14%, Net B/C of 1.94, an IRR value of 28.84%, and a Payback Period of 3 years four months so that the honey bee cultivation business declared financially viable. Based on the sensitivity analysis, the business is still feasible to run despite a 25% decrease in honey production and a 35% increase in operating costs. However, if there is a decrease in honey production by 25% and an increase in operational costs by 35% simultaneously, then the honey bee cultivation business is not feasible.

Authors: Lalwani Parin
Published: May 2022

The laryngotracheal trauma is an extremely challenging scenario especially in children as it may be associated with a threatened airway, unstable cervical spine, the risk for major hemorrhage, and other associated traumatic injuries. We report a successful emergency airway management of a very rare presentation of an open pediatric laryngotracheal injury.

A 10-year-old 20kg male child sustained a 20 cm lacerated wound over the anterior aspect of the neck and a horizontal tracheal rent through a wire tied over the windshield of a two-wheeler, while hit by a car from the backside. The child was agitated and had noisy breathing along with coughing of blood-stained sputum and loss of voice. In view of the potentially threatened airway, a 4.5 cuffed endotracheal tube (ETT) was inserted through visible anterior tracheal rent in the emergency room, and subsequently, tracheostomy and feeding gastrostomy was done. The child was discharged 3 weeks later after decannulation and removal of feeding gastrostomy.

Resilience is a person's ability to survive, rise, and adapt to difficult conditions. Individuals who have resilience are able to quickly return to their pre-psychic trauma, appear immune from negative life events, and are able to adapt to extreme stress and suffering.
