Uncertainty budget for detector-based absolute radiometric calibration with GLAMR
Authors: Wang Zhipeng , Barsi Julia , Thome Kurtis , Wenny Brian N. , McAndrew Brendan , Efremova Boryana , McCorkel Joel
Published: March 2024

The accuracy of the absolute radiometric calibration (RadCal) for
remote sensing instruments is essential to their wide range of
applications. The uncertainty associated with the traditional
source-based RadCal method is assessed at a 2% (k=1) or higher level for radiance
measurement. To further improve the accuracy to meet the demands of
climate studies, a detector-based approach using tunable lasers as a
light source has been devised. The Goddard Laser for Absolute
Measurement of Radiance, known as the GLAMR system, is a notable
example of the incorporation of such technology. Using transfer
radiometers calibrated at the National Institute of Standards and
Technology as calibration standards, the absolute spectral response
function of a remote sensing instrument is measured with its
uncertainty traceable to the International System of Units. This paper
presents a comprehensive uncertainty analysis of the detector-based
absolute RadCal using the GLAMR system. It identifies and examines
uncertainty sources during the GLAMR RadCal test, including those from
the GLAMR system, the testing configuration, and data processing
methodologies. Analysis is carried out to quantify the contribution of
each source and emphasize the most influential factors. It is shown
that the calibration uncertainty of GLAMR RadCal can be better than
0.3% (k=1) in the wavelength range of
350–950 nm and 0.6% (k=1) between 950 and 2300 nm, with the
exception of regions with strong water absorption. In addition,
recommendations are made to refine the calibration process to further
reduce the uncertainty.
Self-aligned dual-beam superresolution laser direct writing with a polarization-engineered depletion beam
Authors: Chen Guoliang , Mo Dewei , Chen Jian , Zhan Qiwen
Published: March 2024

A fiber-based, self-aligned dual-beam laser direct writing system with a polarization-engineered depletion beam is designed, constructed, and tested. This system employs a vortex fiber to generate a donut-shaped, cylindrically polarized depletion beam while simultaneously allowing the fundamental mode excitation beam to pass through. This results in a co-axially self-aligned dual-beam source, enhancing stability and mitigating assembly complexities. The size of the central dark spot of the focused cylindrical vector depletion beam can be easily adjusted using a simple polarization rotation device. With a depletion wavelength of 532 nm and an excitation wavelength of 800 nm, the dual-beam laser direct writing system has demonstrated a single linewidth of 63 nm and a minimum line spacing of 173 nm. Further optimization of this system may pave the way for practical superresolution photolithography that surpasses the diffraction limit.
Effect of maternal diet on the frequency of micronuclei in pregnant women and newborns: A protocol for systematic review and meta-analysis
Authors: Araújo Anny Cristine de , Medeiros Marília Cristina Santos de , Nascimento Priscila Kelly da Silva Bezerra do , Cobucci Ricardo Ney , Bortolin Raul Hernandes , Rezende Adriana Augusto de
Published: March 2024

Background

The effects of diet on maternal and child genetic levels have been previously reported. Diet-associated DNA damage, such as the presence of micronuclei (MN), may be related to an increased risk of developing chronic diseases, such as cancer. Such damage is particularly concerning during pregnancy as it can affect the newborn.

Aim

This review will aim to summarize the primary evidence of the impact of diet during pregnancy on micronucleus frequency in the maternal-newborn population.

Methods

This protocol was developed based on the Preferred Reporting Items guidelines for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses Protocol. The review was registered with the International Register of Prospective Systematic Reviews on February 17, 2022 (registration number: CRD42022302401). We will use PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Scopus, Science direct, and Google databases to search for observational studies. This review will include studies that investigate the diet consumed by pregnant women and its effect on the frequency of MN in mothers and newborns without any time or language limitations. For data extraction, researchers will independently review the full text and collect information that characterizes the study and its findings. We will analyze the results by calculating the odds ratio for each type of diet evaluated, accompanied by a 95% confidence interval. We will perform a quantitative synthesis of homogeneous studies to perform a meta-analysis. Micronucleus frequency quantifies the effect and will be presented as the mean and standard deviation or median and interquartile range.

Expected results

This review will aim to identify which dietary patterns during pregnancy may be associated with an increase in the frequency of MN in mothers and their newborns. Understanding the impact of diet on the frequency of MN is essential to deepen studies and to propose strategies that aim to protect the health of the public through food.

Para cumpri-lo, o presente texto comporta uma breve recapitulação da vida de Xenofonte, as interpretações historiográficas mais importantes relativas ao Cinegético e à sua datação, e, por fim, a forma como o autor ático descreve seu caçador grego ideal.
La emoción esclava. Cólera, razón y responsabilidad moral en la ética aristotélica
Authors: Bieda Esteban
Published: March 2024

En el presente trabajo analizaré, en primer lugar, el modo en que Aristóteles entendió el vínculo entre la razón y las acciones emocionales –particularmente las coléricas– a fin de mostrar que es debido a dicho vínculo que las emociones resultan éticamente relevantes y no una mera reacción incontrolada. Para ello comenzaré haciendo un breve examen de la mereología psíquica aristotélica, a fin de ubicar las sedes de la razón y la emoción en el alma humana. Luego me detendré en el tipo de saber que una acción emocional supone. Finalmente, tras analizar las repetidas analogías de las que se sirve Aristóteles entre la razón como amo y la cólera como esclavo para explicar el vínculo entre ambas, mi aporte específico al tema consistirá en invertir dicha analogía y, en lugar de utilizarla como ejemplo del vínculo λόγος-θυμός, hacer de este último un ejemplo del vínculo δεσπότης-δοῦλος tal como se lo describe en Política I. Si mi hipótesis es verosímil, establecer las acciones y la virtud propias del esclavo nos ayudará a echar luz sobre el tipo de moralidad propia de las acciones coléricas.

Published: March 2024

INTRODUCTION:

An optimal follow-up schedule for small (≤3-cm) hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after radiofrequency ablation (RFA) remains unclear in clinical guidelines. We aimed to assess the cost-effectiveness of follow-up strategies in patients with small HCC after RFA.

METHODS:

In total, 11,243 patients were collected from global institutions to calculate recurrence rates. Subsequently, a Markov model covering a 10-year period was developed to compare 25 surveillance strategies involving different surveillance techniques (computed tomography [CT], magnetic resonance imaging or ultrasonography [US], and α-fetoprotein [AFP]) and intervals (3 or 6 months). The study endpoint was incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER), which represented additional cost per incremental quality-adjusted life year. Sensitivity analysis was conducted by varying the values of input parameters to observe the ICER.

RESULTS:

In a base case analysis, the dominant strategy was CT every 3 months during an initial 2 years, followed by semiannual CT, and then switch to biannual the combination of US screening and AFP testing after 5 years (m3_CT-m6_CT-m6_USAFP), with an ICER of $68,570.92 compared with the “not followed” strategy. One-way sensitivity analysis showed the ICER consistently remained below the willingness-to-pay threshold of $100,000.00. In a probabilistic sensitivity analysis, m3_CT-m6_CT-m6_USAFP was the most cost-effective approach in 95.6% of simulated scenarios at a willingness-to-pay threshold.

DISCUSSION:

For small HCC after RFA, the recommended follow-up strategy is CT, with scans scheduled every 3 months for the first 2 years, every 6 months thereafter, and transition to biannual the combination of US screening and AFP testing after 5 years.
Extremal Problems for Hyperbolic Systems with Boundary Conditions Involving Integral Time Lags
Authors:   AGH Akademia Górniczo-Hutnicza, Kraków, Kowalewski Adam
Published: March 2024

Extremal problems for integral time lag hyperbolic systems are presented. The optimal boundary control problems for hyperbolic systems in which integral time lags appear in the Neumann boundary conditions are solved. Such systems constitute, in a linear approximation, a universal mathematical model for many processes in which transmission signals at a certain distance with electric, hydraulic and other long lines take place. The time horizon is fixed. Making use of Dubovicki-Milyutin scheme, necessary and sufficient conditions of optimality for the Neumann problem with the quadratic performance functionals and constrained control are derived.

Authors:   Wojskowa Akademia Techniczna, Warszawa, Sadzyński Piotr
Published: March 2024

Machine learning is increasingly being applied in the processing and analysis of thermal imaging for object recognition and identification. This article presents a study on the impact of data augmentation on the effectiveness of machine learning in the context of thermal image analysis. The publicly available FLIR ADAS dataset, which includes labeled thermal and visible light images, was used for this study. The research focuses on the use of Convolutional Neural Networks, specifically the YOLOv8 architecture, for object detection in thermal images. As part of the study, the FLIR ADAS dataset underwent preprocessing and augmentation, and was then used to train two different models: one based on grayscale images and another using a color palette. The results of the experiment indicate that data augmentation can significantly impact the effectiveness of the model, and the use of colors in thermal images may, in certain situations, further improve detection accuracy.

Authors: Dudung Hamdun  , Nurul Islam
Published: March 2024

This study aims to determine how the implementation of the humanistic approach in learning Arabic and to determine its effect on increasing student learning motivation. The applied humanistic approach adopts the principles of Gestalt theory. i.e., humanistic teachers believe that students will be motivated to study teaching materials if they are related to their needs and wants; educational goals should encourage students' desire to learn; humanistic educators believe that grades are irrelevant and only self-evaluation is meaningful; do not separate cognitive and affective domains; and learn without threat. The results show that the implementation of the humanistic approach in Arabic language learning is in accordance with the principles of Gestalt. The implementation of the humanistic approach in Arabic language learning is also able to increase students' learning motivation. This can be seen from the statistical significance value (2-tailed) of 0.000 <0.05 between the pre-test and post-test results, which means there is a significant difference. These results can be concluded that through the implementation of a humanistic approach to learning Arabic can increase student motivation. So that the alternative hypothesis, which states that the implementation of a humanistic approach in learning Arabic can increase the learning motivation of students in class X IPA 1 is proven or accepted,.

Payment transactions at shops, minimarkets, or supermarkets, we as consumers have often experienced returns in the form of candy as a substitute for the remaining money paid. This of course raises various pros and cons between the cashier and the consumer, one of which is when the consumer refuses candy as a return for the remaining payment. The method used in carrying out this activity is Community-Based Participatory Research (CBPR). The purpose of this method is to provide education, provide an overview or example, and discuss information regarding Conventional and Sharia Perspectives on Returns Exchanged for Candy and Illegal Parking Attendants through social media platforms. The results of our campaign activities show that there are still many perspectives from the general public who do not know about whether or not it is permissible to exchange change for candy and how to refuse to pay illegal parking fees. It is hoped that by carrying out the social media campaign and interviews that we have created, the general public is aware of the importance of knowing how it is permissible or not to exchange change for candy and how to refuse to pay illegal parking fees.

Carbon emissions are one of the main causes of global climate change. High carbon emissions can hinder long-term economic growth. The purpose of this research is to analyze the influence of Trade Openness, Energy Consumption, and Economic Growth variables on CO2 Emissions in D-8 countries (Bangladesh, Egypt, Indonesia, Iran, Malaysia, Nigeria, Pakistan, and Turkey) during the period of 1992 to 2021 using the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) panel model. The results of the study indicate that Economic Growth in D-8 countries has a positive long-term effect on CO2 Emissions but has no short-term effect. The Energy Consumption variable has a short-term effect on CO2 Emissions. However, Trade Openness does not have a short-term or long-term effect on CO2 Emissions. Therefore, it is expected that D-8 countries pay attention to policies that encourage investment in renewable energy, incentives for energy efficiency, and regulations that reduce emissions from specific sectors, which can help achieve sustainable and low-carbon economic growth.
Pengaruh Financial Crunch pada Bank Syariah dan Pembiayaan UMKM terhadap Pertumbuhan Ekonomi di Indonesia
Authors: Putri Amila Zamzabila
Published: March 2024

Perekonomian indonesia telah mengalami berbagai tantangan maupun hambatan perekonomian yang cukup besar dalam sejarahnya, seperti adanya fenomena hyperinflation yang terjadi pada tahun 1960an, krisis moneter pada tahun 1997, krisis global pada tahun 2008, dan baru-baru ini bahkan sampai saat ini Indonesia mengalami krisis ekonomi akibat pandemi covid-19. Krisis keuangan global juga berdampak pada sektor perbankan, salah satunya dalam melakukan penyaluran kredit. Bank lebih selektif dalam melakukan kebijakannya untuk penyaluran kredit, sehingga hal ini memunculkan fenomena credit crunch. Pada sektor perbankan syariah, fenomena credit crunch lebih identik dengan penggunaan istilah financial crunch. Fenomena ini memiliki hubungan dengan tingkat pembiayaan bank, karena saat terjadinya krisis keuangan bank lebih selektif dalam menyalurkan pembiayaannya, disinilah terjadi perubahan dalam penawaran dan permintaan pembiayaan. Adapun variabel yang digunakan untuk menjelaskan pengaruh financial crunch pada bank syariah yaitu Non Performing Financing (NPF), Dana Pihak Ketiga (DPK), dan Financing To Deposit Ratio (FDR), serta adanya variabel pembiayaan UMKM untuk melihat pengaruh nya terhadap pertumbuhan ekonomi di Indonesia, yang diproyeksikan dengan data IPI. Dalam penelitian menggunakan model analisis Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) menggunakan data time series bulan Januari 2010 – Maret 2021. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan tidak adanya fenomena financial crunch pada saat terjadinya krisis keuangan, serta adanya perubahan pembiayaan UMKM juga tidak dapat menekan angka IPI.

Você já se pegou na dúvida sobre qual roupa escolher para ir a uma festa? Pois bem, certo dia, um aluno inteligente, muito participativo e interessado, me indagou, durante uma aula no curso de Especialização: “Professor, qual é o melhor fio ortodôntico para iniciar o tratamento com aparelhos fixos?” Eu, inquieto como sempre, respondi, em tom de brincadeira: “Caro aluno, permita-me perguntar-lhe: Com qual roupa você vai a uma festa?” E ele me respondeu: “Ahhh, professor, depende da festa... onde será... diurna ou noturna... para qual ocasião, etc!” Pois é, eu sempre digo que a Ortodontia é democrática e, ao mesmo tempo, dicotômica. Aqui, de forma similar, em relação aos fios ortodônticos, não tem certo ou errado, depende de vários fatores! Existem situações clínicas específicas que demandam a aplicação de determinados arcos, em detrimento de outros. E nem sempre o que funciona para um ortodontista vale para o outro.

Foi minha aluna! Quantas vezes, ao assistir uma palestra de algum dos muitos professores que foram meus alunos, tenho esse pensamento ou comento com alguém sentado ao meu lado. Orgulho? Será que essa palavra define exatamente o que sinto nesses momentos? Decidi usar essa perspectiva como inspiração para apresentar a entrevistada dessa edição, Prof. Sílvia Augusta Braga Reis. Assim, vamos rever o seu caminho... Após uma brilhante graduação em Odontologia na UFMG, ganhando o prêmio Prof. Hélio de Senna Figueiredo como melhor aluna da turma — graças à genética cedida por seu pai, nosso colega Dr. Benedito (Bené) e, ao mesmo tempo, pelo ambiente de sucesso profissional por ele criado —, Sílvia escolheu a Ortodontia como especialidade. Começou bem, com o Prof. Omar Gabriel, no curso de preventiva da PROFIS. Encantada, como todos que tiveram a oportunidade de partilhar da Ortodontia que esse professor vivia, decidiu que Bauru era o seu lugar, e nos deu a honra de escolher fazer especialização com nossa equipe. Belo Horizonte ficou pertinho. Muito jovem, mas sempre com espírito de aprender e fazer melhor, aceitou o desafio de tratar adultos e foi uma aluna destacada. Chegou em uma boa hora, quando estávamos elaborando o conceito de Padrão e, depois de terminar a especialização, em 1999, no mesmo ano iniciou o mestrado na Metodista (UMESP) e, depois, o doutorado na USP. Esse período foi um tempo produtivo, com pesquisas sobre análise facial subjetiva, base para o diagnóstico apoiado em morfologia (Padrão Facial), e a publicação de muitos artigos. Terminado o doutorado, em 2008, estava pronta para voos maiores. Ampliou sua prática docente, sempre ensinando a tratar adultos, coordenando o curso de Especialização de BH e se apresentando com frequência nos congressos mais importantes da especialidade. Neste movimento que valoriza as mulheres, “A visão delas na Ortodontia”, Sílvia é uma estrela. Tem luz própria, cumpre seu papel de clínica e professora com brilhantismo e segue um roteiro que leva ao sucesso verdadeiro. Voltando ao princípio desse texto, quando discutíamos se era adequado eu dizer “Foi minha aluna” e sentir orgulho, acho que posso concluir que: talvez seja melhor dizer “Foi nossa aluna”, e dividir o mérito de sua formação com todos que tiveram o privilégio de ensinar e aprender alguma coisa com ela. Acho que, dessa maneira, é justo sentir orgulho. Vamos à entrevista e, ao final, acredito que todos entenderão esse sentimento. Boa leitura!
Tratamento da Classe II subdivisão por meio de distalização com Invisalign: relato de caso clínico
Authors: Prado Eduardo
Published: March 2024

Objetivo: O objetivo deste artigo é relatar o retratamento de uma paciente com má oclusão de Classe II subdivisão esquerda e apinhamento anterossuperior, tratada com distalização sequencial dos dentes posteriores usando alinhadores Invisalign®, em conjunto com elásticos de Classe II. Resultados: Os resultados oclusais alcançados foram excelentes, com obtenção de Classe I de caninos e molares, ótimo alinhamento dentário e bons trespasses vertical e horizontal. Não houve alteração de perfil, e a linha média superior se manteve coincidente com o plano sagital mediano. Foi utilizado apenas um conjunto com 48 alinhadores ativos na arcada superior, totalizando 1 ano e 5 meses de tratamento. Conclusão: Concluiu-se que os alinhadores Invisalign são eficientes na correção da má oclusão de Classe II quando há necessidade de distalização de dentes posteriores, em pacientes colaboradores.
A presença de diastema mediano influencia a percepção da estética dentofacial em crianças?
Authors: Trinchão Juliana Marques , Caldas Sergei Godeiro Fernandes Rabelo , Machado André Wilson
Published: March 2024

Introdução: Devido à correlação existente entre a presença de diastema mediano e o bullying, e suas implicações psicossociais, esse tema precisa ser amplamente pesquisado. Objetivo: Avaliar a influência do diastema mediano em crianças, na percepção de estética dentofacial entre ortodontistas, leigos e crianças. Material e Métodos: Duas fotografias frontais sorrindo da face completa de uma menina e um menino, com idades entre 10 e 11 anos, foram manipuladas para obtenção de sorrisos com padrão crescente de diastema mediano (0,0 mm - controle, 1,0; 2,0; 3,0 e 4,0 mm). Depois, eles foram alocados aleatoriamente para uma pesquisa on-line. As imagens foram analisadas por 321 indivíduos, que foram instruídos a atribuir escores de 1 a 5 para cada imagem, de acordo com seu conceito de agradabilidade. Os dados foram avaliados utilizando-se análise de variância (ANOVA) e teste post-hoc de Tukey, com nível de significância de 5%. Resultados: Para os ortodontistas, a imagem controle foi a mais agradável, para ambas as crianças. Para os leigos, a imagem controle e a com diastema de 1,0 mm foram as mais agradáveis, para ambas as crianças. E para as crianças, a imagem controle, e os diastemas de 1,0 mm e 2,0 mm foram os mais agradáveis. Todos os grupos de avaliadores julgaram as imagens com diastema de 4,0 mm como a mais desagradável. Conclusão: Devido à correlação entre a presença de diastema mediano e o bullying e suas implicações psicossociais, esse tema precisa ser amplamente pesquisado. Nossas descobertas sugerem que os diastemas medianos de 2,0 mm não foram detectados como desagradáveis pelas crianças.

A fully well-balanced hydrodynamic reconstruction
Authors: Berthon Christophe , Michel-Dansac Victor
Published: March 2024

The present work focuses on the numerical approximation of the weak solutions of the shallow water model over a non-flat topography. In particular, we pay close attention to steady solutions with nonzero velocity. The goal of this work is to derive a scheme that exactly preserves these stationary solutions, as well as the commonly preserved lake at rest steady solution. These moving steady states are solution to a nonlinear equation. We emphasize that the method proposed here never requires solving this nonlinear equation; instead, a suitable linearization is derived. To address this issue, we propose an extension of the well-known hydrostatic reconstruction. By appropriately defining the reconstructed states at the interfaces, any numerical flux function, combined with a relevant source term discretization, produces a well-balanced scheme that preserves both moving and non-moving steady solutions. This eliminates the need to construct specific numerical fluxes. Additionally, we prove that the resulting scheme is consistent with the homogeneous system on flat topographies, and that it reduces to the hydrostatic reconstruction when the velocity vanishes. To increase the accuracy of the simulations, we propose a well-balanced high-order procedure, which still does not require solving any nonlinear equation. Several numerical experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the numerical scheme.
The overall film cooling performance of crescent holes
Authors: Wang Qiuyin , Duan Xiaozhi , Zhou Chao
Published: March 2024

This study proposes two crescent cooling holes based on favorable vortex structures to enhance the film cooling effectiveness. Large eddy simulations and laser-induced fluorescence were conducted. An up-convex crescent hole (UCC) was established first, which uses an anti-counter-rotating vortex pair (anti-CRVP) to prevent the coolant from lifting off the surface and another CRVP to achieve better cooling uniformity at the centerline. Then, a down-convex crescent hole (DCC) was further optimized based on the vortex of the UCC. The results show that the film cooling effectiveness of the DCC increases by 48 % at BR = 1.6 compared to the UCC. Apart from the time-averaged results, the instantaneous flow field of DCC was analyzed in detail, and the distribution and breakdown of hairpin vortexes highly affect the cooling effectiveness. Besides, the heat transfer coefficient and net heat flux reduction were analyzed to overall evaluate the film cooling performance of DCC.
Evolutionary systems therapy for paranoid personality disorder: A seven cases series
Authors: Cheli Simone , Goldzweig Gil , Chiarello Francesca , Cavalletti Veronica
Published: March 2024

Little is known about effective psychosocial treatments for paranoid personality disorder. This study explores the feasibility of a novel treatment, namely Evolutionary Systems Therapy, in supporting individuals diagnosed with paranoid personality disorder. Seven patients attended 10 months of individual therapy without receiving any psychopharmacological treatment. The primary outcome was the feasibility of the intervention, while the secondary outcomes were remission from the diagnosis and reliable changes in personality pathology and paranoid ideation. All recruited patients completed the intervention and did not report any adverse events. Six out of seven patients experienced remission from the diagnosis of paranoid personality disorder. All participants showed reliable changes in personality pathology and paranoid ideation, which were maintained at the 1-month follow-up. Further research is needed to confirm these encouraging results.
