Authors: Bhamboo Prateek , Bera Smritilekha , Mondal Dhananjoy
Published: March 2024

Naturally and synthetically obtained lipophilic α-amino acids exhibit diverse
properties and applications in academia and industry. Unnatural hydrophobic/lipophilic
amino acids lacking polarity in their side chains manifest the biologically significant structure
of peptides and proteins. The hydrophobic effect of lipophilic amino acids stabilizes the
structure of proteins, peptides, and enzymes during their indigenous folding-unfolding phenomena.
The presence of these amino acids in the backbone of protein and peptide-derived
drug delivery systems such as lysine-derived surfactants and glycodendrimers can also enhance
the cell penetration of drugs of interest. Cationic poly-l-lysine dendrimers, α-amino
oleic acid, and a naturally occurring cyclic heptadepsipeptide HUN-7293 are recognized as
promising biomaterials for developing prodrugs and also serve as biocompatible surfactants
in the food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries. The synthesis of unnatural lipophilic amino acids, N-lauroyl
sarcosine, N-lauroyl glutamic acid, N-octylglycine, N-myristoyl glycine etc. has gained attention for preparing
novel compounds for advanced academic, industrial, and societal applications. This review article discusses the
applications and synthesis of hydrophobic/lipophilic α-amino acids using ester enolate Claisen rearrangement,
chiral auxiliary, chiral pool, chiral catalysts, and many more relevant methodologies.

Published: March 2024

The green synthesis of silver nanoparticles has garnered significant interest because of
the unique physicochemical and biological properties they possess. These nanoparticles could have
applications in a wide variety of fields, including biomedicine, cellular imaging, cosmetics,
healthcare tourism, food and agriculture. The formation of nanoparticles is facilitated by the use of
bionanofactories, or green synthesis processes, which utilise living organisms, biomolecules, and
plant-based materials as bio reductive or bio sealing agents. Green chemistry is cost-effective in addition
to being environmentally friendly, non-toxic, and biodegradable. By considering the results
of recent studies using techniques like scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy,
atomic force microscopy, ultraviolet/visible spectrophotometry, Fourier transform infrared
spectroscopy or X-ray diffraction, we illuminate the most recent advances in green synthesis and
the physicochemical properties of green silver nanoparticles. We also discuss the properties of silver
nanoparticles that make them effective against bacteria, fungi, and parasites.

:

Treatment of complicated fatal diseases was difficult when nanotechnology was not
more popular. The incorporation of nanomedicine has increased in the last 13 years, even though
regulatory guidelines regarding nanomaterials and nanomedicine weren't sufficient. Hence, it
was tough to decide valid inevitability for the manufacturers, administrators, health professionals,
primary care providers, and rest of the public that could ultimately have a negative impact on
the financing system, research, and development of such items, affecting the approval of the public
and acceptance of nano-products. This review includes coverage across the therapeutic value
of nanomaterials, problems in the regulation, regulatory challenges, synthesis, physicochemical
properties, and clinical application. The hurdles to using nanotechnology, particularly in the
pharmaceutical development of novel medicinal products and respective regulatory issues, are
critically explored, considering the characteristics offered by the nanomaterials.

as bacteria, yeasts, or fungi. These compounds exhibit intricate chemical compositions
and unique physical properties, often surpassing or rivaling synthetic surfactants.
Furthermore, they typically have low toxicity towards freshwater, marine, and
terrestrial ecosystems, making them environmentally favorable for various
applications. To date, the primary focus of biosurfactant research has centered on
enhancing the biodegradation and recovery of oil. These substances have demonstrated
their utility in aiding the removal of hazardous contaminants from polluted areas due to
their capacity to solubilize and emulsify harmful pesticides. Their versatility as
chemical agents renders them suitable for deployment in both biotechnological and
industrial applications. This review aims to provide readers with an extensive
comprehension of recent advancements in utilizing biosurfactants and the
microorganisms responsible for their production. This knowledge encompasses their
medical applications, metal remediation technology, and hydrocarbon-related
industries.

Authors: Das Truptirekha , Ranjan Sahoo Sameer , Kumar Pradhan Arun
Published: March 2024

Biosurfactants are commonly recognised as biologically derived surface
active agents. The most significant microbes have been studied for the production of
glycolipid biosurfactants, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus subtilis, and
Candida spp. Microbial derived biosurfactants are found commercially superior to
chemical derivatives due to their biodegradability, renewability, and good performance
under harsh working conditions. It has been found that (isolated) hydrocarbondegrading bacteria produce far more biosurfactants than that predicted from oil spills.
This is because all genomes are regulated in lipid metabolism synthesis. The oil and
petroleum sector use biosurfactants as an emulsifier for both recovery and removal
from contaminated sites. They also play a role in the removal of heavy metals in
metallurgy. In this work, we have provided an overview of the screening of
microorganisms that produce biosurfactants, production techniques, and variables that
affect the production of biosurfactants. Several analytical approaches for crude
metabolite processing are also given. Hence, the importance of biosurfactants in
environmental cleaning is simply understood from this review.

traditional remedial solutions. The bio molecules which showed the potential to replace
the harsh surfactants currently utilised in the multibillion-dollar pesticide industry. The
microbial population is screened for biosurfactant synthesis using traditional methods.
The modern civilization is confronted with a number of issues in terms of enforcing
environmental protection, implementation and addressing climate change for future
generation. As a result, studies on environmental safety and human are being carried
out in order to improve the efficiency of sustainable environmental restoration
methods. Cosmetics, medicines, food, petroleum, agriculture, textiles and wastewater
treatment are just a few of the areas where biosurfactants have been shown to be
successful and efficient. Improved plant pathogen management, antibacterial activity,
antibiofilm activity, seed protection and fertility, wound healing and dermatological
care, drug delivery systems, and anticancer treatments are just a few of the applications
for microbial produced biosurfactants. This study emphasizes the widespread utilize of
harsh surfactants in the agrochemical industry and agricultural soil. More research is
needed to determine the possible relevance of biosurfactants produced from
environmental isolates in plant growth improvement and other agricultural
applications.

Omics Perspectives Regarding Biosurfactant Biosynthesis and the Suitability of Site Bioremediation and Developments
Authors: Jena Arabinda , Ranjan Sahoo Sameer
Published: March 2024

Modern compounds are called biosurfactants. Their application(s) interfere
with day-to-day activities of human beings. The economics of production place a
significant restriction on the broad applicability of biosurfactant(s). There can be many
ways to overcome this. This study primarily focuses on current technical advancements
in biosurfactant research. One of the innovations is the application of metabolomic and
sequence-based omics approaches, which have evolved into a high-throughput essential
tool for the detection of biosurfactant producers. Many bacteria produce ethanol,
microbial lipids, polyhydroxyalkanoates, and other value-added compounds in addition
to biosurfactants. The use of metabolic engineering techniques can further address
restrictions while also improving the overall process's economics. The yield of
biosurfactants is increased by the tailoring technique, which enables variation in the
composition of the congeners produced. By enhancing their bioavailability or water
solubility, bio-based surfactants have demonstrated promising effects in reducing
pollution in terrestrial and aquatic habitats. Due to the expanding market for
biosurfactants, this investigation identified technologically feasible developments in
biosurfactant research that might help researchers create more trustworthy and secure
technologies.
De gemeenschap en het individu. Kritische notities bij en lessen uit twee tegengestelde verbondsvisies
Authors: Rouwendal P.l.
Published: March 2024

Within Reformed circles in the Netherlands the doctrine of the covenant is much debated. Different views about the number of covenants, the (un)conditional nature of the covenant, and who belong to the covenant of grace, have been fixed for decades. The disputants no longer attempt to influence, never mind convince each other. This article examines recent publications from opposite sides (Verbond en doop from the GGN and Woord houden from the GKN) and seeks to bring the different covenant views into conversation with each other, by critically discussing these views and testing them for their inner consistency. This essay seeks to give impetus to renewed reflection on Reformed covenant doctrine by articulating the differences and the elements of truth in both publications.

Authors: Ahmed Wasim , Aiyenitaju Opeoluwa , Chadwick Simon , Hardey Mariann , Fenton Alex
Published: March 2024

Background

 Social media (SM) was essential in promoting physical activity during the COVID-19 pandemic, especially among people confined to their homes. Joe Wicks, a fitness coach, became particularly popular on SM during this time, posting daily workouts that millions of people worldwide followed.

Objective

 This study aims to investigate the influence of Joe Wicks on SM and the impact of his content on physical activity levels among the public.

Methods

 We used NodeXL Pro (Social Media Research Foundation) to collect data from X (formerly Twitter) over 54 days (March 23, 2020, to May 15, 2020), corresponding to the strictest lockdowns in the United Kingdom. We collected 290,649 posts, which we analyzed using social network analysis, thematic analysis, time-series analysis, and location analysis.

Results

 We found that there was significant engagement with content generated by Wicks, including reposts, likes, and comments. The most common types of posts were those that contained images, videos, and text of young people (school-aged children) undertaking physical activity by watching content created by Joe Wicks and posts from schools encouraging pupils to engage with the content. Other shared posts included those that encouraged others to join the fitness classes run by Wicks and those that contained general commentary. We also found that Wicks’ network of influence was extensive and complex. It contained numerous subcommunities and resembled a broadcast network shape. Other influencers added to engagement with Wicks via their networks. Our results show that influencers can create networks of influence that are exhibited in distinctive ways.

Conclusions

Our study found that Joe Wicks was a highly influential figure on SM during the COVID-19 pandemic and that his content positively impacted physical activity levels among the public. Our findings suggest that influencers can play an important role in promoting public health and that government officials should consider working with influencers to communicate health messages and promote healthy behaviors. Our study has broader implications beyond the status of fitness influencers. Recognizing the critical role of individuals such as Joe Wicks in terms of health capital should be a critical area of inquiry for governments, public health authorities, and policy makers and mirrors the growing interest in health capital as part of embodied and digital experiences in everyday life.
Appraisal of ChatGPT’s Aptitude for Medical Education: Comparative Analysis With Third-Year Medical Students in a Pulmonology Examination
Authors: Cherif Hela , Moussa Chirine , Missaoui Abdel Mouhaymen , Salouage Issam , Mokaddem Salma , Dhahri Besma
Published: March 2024

Background

The rapid evolution of ChatGPT has generated substantial interest and led to extensive discussions in both public and academic domains, particularly in the context of medical education.

Objective

This study aimed to evaluate ChatGPT’s performance in a pulmonology examination through a comparative analysis with that of third-year medical students.

Methods

In this cross-sectional study, we conducted a comparative analysis with 2 distinct groups. The first group comprised 244 third-year medical students who had previously taken our institution’s 2020 pulmonology examination, which was conducted in French. The second group involved ChatGPT-3.5 in 2 separate sets of conversations: without contextualization (V1) and with contextualization (V2). In both V1 and V2, ChatGPT received the same set of questions administered to the students.

Results

V1 demonstrated exceptional proficiency in radiology, microbiology, and thoracic surgery, surpassing the majority of medical students in these domains. However, it faced challenges in pathology, pharmacology, and clinical pneumology. In contrast, V2 consistently delivered more accurate responses across various question categories, regardless of the specialization. ChatGPT exhibited suboptimal performance in multiple choice questions compared to medical students. V2 excelled in responding to structured open-ended questions. Both ChatGPT conversations, particularly V2, outperformed students in addressing questions of low and intermediate difficulty. Interestingly, students showcased enhanced proficiency when confronted with highly challenging questions. V1 fell short of passing the examination. Conversely, V2 successfully achieved examination success, outperforming 139 (62.1%) medical students.

Conclusions

While ChatGPT has access to a comprehensive web-based data set, its performance closely mirrors that of an average medical student. Outcomes are influenced by question format, item complexity, and contextual nuances. The model faces challenges in medical contexts requiring information synthesis, advanced analytical aptitude, and clinical judgment, as well as in non-English language assessments and when confronted with data outside mainstream internet sources.
Post-Stroke Technologies-Based Rehabilitation for the Upper Limb Recovery: A Systematic Review of Systematic Reviews (Preprint)
Authors: Rampioni Margherita , Leonzi Sara , Antognoli Luca , Mura Anna , Stara Vera
Published: March 2024

BACKGROUND

Stroke is one of the most common cerebral vascular diseases, usually affecting people aged 60 and over, leading to a variety of disabilities requiring motor and cognitive rehabilitation. Post-stroke rehabilitation has a lead role in the recovery of the patients, and it is never too late to start. It should be implemented in a structured approach to help patients regain their physical, cognitive, and functional abilities. Technological solutions offer a beneficial and effective alternative to conventional therapy, making rehabilitation more accessible.

OBJECTIVE

This study maps and synthesizes the evidence from published systematic reviews that assessed the effectiveness of technology-based rehabilitation for the recovery of the upper limb in post-stroke individuals.

METHODS

Separate literature searches were conducted in PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus and Embase databases and Google Scholar. The PICOS was used to define inclusion criteria. There was no restriction on publication dates. The PRISMA flowchart was used in the retrieval and selection process. Then, the final articles were appraised for their methodological quality using the AMSTAR 2.

RESULTS

After the search process that identified 1450 records from the 4 databases and an additional 342 by Google Scholar, seven systematic reviews were included. The seven studies were published between 2019 and 2023.

CONCLUSIONS

This review indicated that the field of technology-based rehabilitation is still fragmented due to poor evidence of efficacy. This is probably due to the high heterogeneity of the experimental studies. When developing a technology-based rehabilitation program, it is crucial to carefully plan and link all relevant actors, user-driven design guidelines, and principles of neuroscience.
There is a need for further research to understand better the impact of technology interventions on stroke deficits and recovery-related outcomes, both alone and in combination with traditional rehabilitation. This field of research could benefit from standardized rehabilitation protocols provided to patients, enabling comparison and interpretation to discover evidence currently missing.
Implementation of a Virtual Reality Intervention in Outpatient Physiotherapy for Chronic Pain: Protocol for a Pilot Implementation Study (Preprint)
Authors: Elser Alexander , Kopkow Christian , Schäfer Axel Georg
Published: March 2024

BACKGROUND

Chronic pain is a global health issue that causes physical, psychological, and social disabilities for patients, as well as high costs for societies. Virtual reality (VR) is a new treatment that provides an opportunity to narrow the gap between clinical practice and recommended care in the use of patient education and behavioral interventions in the outpatient physiotherapy setting. However, there is currently no implementation strategy to integrate VR treatments into this setting.

OBJECTIVE

This protocol outlines a pilot implementation study that aims to (1) identify barriers and facilitators for implementing a VR intervention in outpatient physiotherapy care for people with chronic pain and (2) develop and pilot test an implementation strategy in 5 practices in Germany.

METHODS

The study consists of 4 phases. The first phase involves adapting the treatment protocol of the VR intervention to the local context of outpatient physiotherapy practices in Germany. The second phase includes the collection of barriers and facilitators through semistructured interviews from physiotherapists and the development of a theory-driven implementation strategy based on the Theoretical Domains framework and the Behavior Change Wheel. This strategy will be applied in the third phase, which will also include a 6-month span of using VR interventions in practices, along with a process evaluation. The fourth phase consists of semistructured interviews to evaluate the developed implementation strategy.

RESULTS

The recruitment process and phase 1, including the adaptation of the treatment protocol, have already been completed. We recruited 5 physiotherapy practices in Lower Saxony, Germany, where the VR intervention will be implemented. The collection of barriers and facilitators through semistructured interviews is scheduled to begin in February 2024.

CONCLUSIONS

This pilot implementation study aims to develop a theory-driven implementation strategy for integrating a VR intervention into outpatient physiotherapy care for people with chronic pain. The identified barriers and facilitators, along with the implementation strategy, will serve as a starting point for future randomized controlled implementation studies in different settings to refine the implementation process and integrate VR interventions into the outpatient care of people with chronic pain.

Los mayas, una de las más exquisitas civilizaciones que hayan existido en la Antigüedad y a lo largo de la aventura humana, han resguardado su sabiduría en sus mitos, arquitectura, cerámica, códices y rituales. Sin embargo, rara vez su cosmovisión ha sido estudiada a la luz de la música. La potencia de este legado simbólico es el que se presenta aquí a través de tres grandes compositores del siglo XX: Silvestre Revueltas, Alberto Ginastera y Giacinto Scelsi. ¿Qué vínculos guarda el imaginario maya con la música? ¿Qué conexiones pueden establecerse entre la función de la música en el México Antiguo y la moderna búsqueda de nuevos lenguajes musicales?
La idea de justicia en el México prehispánico
Authors: Ibarra García Laura
Published: March 2024

En el mundo de los antiguos mexicanos, las demandas de justicia surgieron principalmente de los pueblos vencidos en las guerras que los ejércitos aztecas emprendían y se dirigieron contra las coacciones y amenazas que representaba el ejercicio del dominio. Los hombres y mujeres sujetos a la dominación se percataron de que la coacción a la que se veían expuestos tenía su origen en los poderes que constituían el orden mismo. Pero ¿en qué consistieron precisamente esas demandas de justicia? ¿Qué era lo que realmente pretendían? El artículo analiza además por qué los aztecas instaban al rey a emprender la guerra y mantener el orden de dominio, y al mismo tiempo pensaban que encarnaba las virtudes consideradas como “más preciosas”, entre ellas la bondad y la justicia. ¿Cómo fue posible que el rey, quien se encontraba en la cúspide del sistema de opresión y quien ordenaba las empresas bélicas que sometían a los demás pueblos, mediante la impartición de justicia pasara a ser el garante de que el débil no se convirtiera en el botín del fuerte? Entre las medidas estructurales a través de las cuales el rey buscaba contrarrestar la explotación del pueblo se encontraban las liberaciones de esclavos. El rey podía decretar o comprar la libertad de aquellos que viéndose incapaces de encontrar su propio sustento decidían venderse como esclavos, pero ¿por qué era esto así? ¿Cómo explicar estos conceptos de justicia?

México y los mexicanos en 1867: el drama de José Zorrilla
Authors: Saíd Alberto
Published: March 2024

José Zorrilla, célebre poeta español del siglo XIX, describe parte de la historia de “Méjico” tomando como punto de partida la muerte de Maximiliano de Habsburgo y lo que ésta conllevó. En su obra El drama del alma, el poeta llora la muerte de este último y el triunfo del liberalismo que a su parecer acabó con el catolicismo, el lazo más fuerte de Nueva España con el resto de Europa, así como con el idioma castellano. Sin embargo, Alberto Saíd termina su artículo recordando que a la fecha la religión mayoritaria en México sigue siendo la católica, y el idioma oficial el castellano.
“Professori legali” y “camere di disciplina” en la estrategia de la restauración en Sicilia
Authors: Cappuccio Antonio
Published: March 2024

La apremiante maniobra jurídica concebida por Fernando I de Borbón en 1819 reestructuró completamente el marco normativo y judicial del Reino de las Dos Sicilias. Pese a la muy proclamada unificación de las tierras “por debajo” y “por encima” del Faro, sin embargo, hay que reconocer que, en comparación con Nápoles, la Isla requirió un complejo proceso de adaptación a las numerosas reformas, también debido a la poca familiari- dad con aquellas categorías e instituciones que se inspiraban en el modelo francés. A través del análisis de la Legge Organica dell’Ordine Giudiziario—de igual forma, de 1819— y de interesantes fuentes documentales poco conocidas hasta el día de hoy, este trabajo pretende arrojar una luz sobre las dinámicas que llevaron al nacimiento de una nueva clase de “professori legali” en Sicilia.

Abstract: The demand for automated validation of new customer company accounts, with a specific emphasis on resolving name variations within large databases, is steadily increasing. This surge in demand is a direct response to the significant scale at which data for new customers is being input into CRM systems, necessitating manual validation and correction processes. The primary objective of this survey paper is to identify machine learning methods capable of addressing the challenge of resolving name variations in extensive databases. To achieve this goal, we propose a multi-step approach. Firstly, we employ an approximate string matching algorithm with high computational speed to identify matches with a very high percentage of accuracy. In cases where such matches are not found in the system, we utilize named entity recognition techniques to annotate company names and their suffixes, such as INC, PVT, LTD, CORP, and CO, which may appear in various forms. To resolve abbreviation disambiguity, we explore the application of machine learning algorithms, including the naïve Bayes classifier, decision trees, and Support Vector Machines. In this survey paper, we conclude by presenting potential approximate string matching algorithms, a named entity recognition method, and a model for resolving abbreviation disambiguity. Our review not only provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of research in this area but also highlights gaps in the existing knowledge, offering valuable insights for future research and practical application.

Published: March 2024

Objectives The purposes of this study were to classify the latent profiles of Korean middle school students’ career maturity and academic achievement and also to explore the influence of relevant factors on the identified latent profiles.
Methods For this purpose, 6,618 responses of the fifth band of the elementary 5 panel (9th grade) of Korea Education Longitudinal Study (KELS) were analyzed. The study analyzed the influence of variables such as personal characteristics, family environment, and school experience in predicting the latent profiles of middle school students' career maturity and academic achievement levels.
Results The latent profiles of South Korean middle school students' career maturity and academic achievement were classified into five categories: lower career-lower academic group, upper group, middle group, lower group, and upper career-lower academic group. The forms of these profiles were found to be distinct. The verification of influencing factors revealed that gender, creativity, self-management, parental support, interaction with parents, attitude towards lessons, teachers' pressure for achievement, teacher relationships, and peer relationships all had significant impacts.
Conclusions Based on these results, contemplation on the direction of middle school education in South Korea was discussed, along with academic understanding of the relationship between middle school students' career maturity and academic achievement. Additionally, implications for various support measures were also deliberated.
A Study on the Exploration of Sociological Approach Strategies for Happiness Education in Social Studies Education
Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Shin Myeong Jun , Choi Seok Hyeon
Published: March 2024

Objectives The purpose of this study is to analyze the conceptualization of “happiness,” a prominent theme in the “Integrated Society” curriculum revised in 2015, from a sociological perspective within textbooks. The primary objective is to identify how happiness is portrayed and structured in these educational materials and to propose potential enhancements.
Methods Consequently, the study investigates the manner in which discussions on happiness have been executed and how sociological perspectives have been integrated into these discussions. Adopting a sociological standpoint, happiness is viewed as a multifaceted concept embedded in social context. This research explores how social factors, such as the social structure, value system, economic conditions, and political influences, impact individual happiness. The examination of happiness content involves a segmentation into the meaning and standard of happiness, along with the conditions for a happy life, employing the quality of life model found in the five textbooks associated with the “Integrated Society” curriculum.
Results The analysis outcomes reveal several key findings. Firstly, within the textbooks, the meaning of happiness is predominantly described in the subjective perspective, while the objective perspective is limited to listing and presenting various indices, failing to provide a balanced presentation of the two perspectives of happiness. Secondly, a distinction is made between textbooks that emphasize the social conditions of happiness and those that do not. Textbooks emphasizing social conditions predominantly focus on the objective aspects of societal conditions. In conclusion, both the meaning of happiness and the conditions for a happy life are predominantly framed in terms of pleasure and life satisfaction. However, the study highlights a deficiency in addressing the social systems that support these aspects.
Conclusions In light of these findings, the study recommends that textbooks incorporate content that comprehensively explores the intricate relationship between society and individual happiness.

Published: March 2024

Objectives The purpose of this study is to develop origami play based on prosocial picture books to develop children's self-regulations and pro-social behavior and to analyze its effects.
Methods For this purpose, we applied origami play based on the contents of prosocial picture books to 40 4-year-old children (20 experimental group, 20 comparison group) attending kindergarten B in W city, K province, and conducted an experiment to verify its effectiveness. Pre- and post-tests were conducted on the group and comparison group. Data analysis was performed using a t-test using the SPSS 22.0 statistical program.
Results There were significant differences in self-regulation and its sub-factors, and pro-social behavior and sub-factors between the experimental group that applied origami play based on the content of pro-social picture books and the comparison group that performed origami play based on picture book content related to daily life topics.
Conclusions Origami play based on prosocial picture book content had a positive effect on the development of children's self-regulation and prosocial behavior. It was confirmed that reading picture books with prosocial content and origami are friendly and accessible educational activities that help young children learn self-regulation and develop pro-social behavior to form harmonious social relationships at home or in educational institutions.
