Authors: Queiroz Ádila Figueira , Lima Ana Kelen Felipe , Dias Francisca Elda Ferreira , Mariano Wagner dos Santos , Fernandes Cláudio Henrique Clemente
Published: August 2023

Objetivo: Avaliar o desfecho dos pacientes diagnosticados com COVID-19, que iniciaram tratamento para câncer de mama entre 18/03/20 a 31/07/21, no Norte do Tocantins. Métodos: Trata-se de um estudo retrospectivo e descritivo, entre março de 2020 a julho de 2021. As pacientes foram interrogadas quanto a evolução clínica após infecção pelo SARS-CoV-2 e foi avaliado o desfecho nesse grupo de pacientes e correlacionado com a fase do tratamento oncológico do câncer de mama. Resultados: Observou-se que as pacientes com COVID-19 e em hormonioterapia não necessitaram de internação hospitalar, enquanto que 50% das pacientes em quimioterapia demandaram internação hospitalar, entretanto, nenhuma das mulheres internadas precisaram de Unidade de Terapia Intensiva (UTI). Conclusão: Pode-se concluir que a fase do tratamento oncológico interferiu na morbidade, porém não alterou a mortalidade das mulheres. Faz-se necessário novos estudos para verificar o efeito da vacina contra COVID-19 nesse grupo de pacientes, bem como categorizar os efeitos das diversas medicações nessas mulheres.
Three’s a crowd: group interactions in the real-world data, and how to find them
Authors: Santoro Andrea
Published: August 2023

Discovering the complex interactions among variables in real-world events is critical, whether it is brain function, the financial market, or even epidemics. While traditional statistical tools only account for interactions between two variables, our new method examines group dependencies to understand more complex interactions in real-world data from neuroscience, economics, and epidemiology.

Multiple pulmonary artery aneurysms in miliary tuberculosis
Authors: Prakash Adity , Sharma Srishti , Prasad Surya Nandan
Published: August 2023

Pulmonary artery aneurysms are rare life threatening complications of tuberculosis (TB). Clinical symptoms range from being silent to fatal hemoptysis. Computed tomography angiography is diagnostic and shows the vascular nature of the lesions and their origin from the pulmonary arteries. The typically described Rasmussen’s aneurysm arises in cavitary TB due to inflammation induced damage to the tunica of the pulmonary artery. However, aneurysms may also rarely occur in non-cavitary TB. In this report, we describe a case of multiple aneurysms of the pulmonary artery in a case of non-cavitary miliary TB.

Published: August 2023

Background:

Cerebral autoregulation (CA) is crucial for the maintenance of cerebral homeostasis. It can be assessed by measuring transient hyperemic response ratio (THRR) using transcranial Doppler (TCD). We aimed at assessing the incidence of impaired CA (ICA) and its correlation with the neurological outcome in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH).

Methods:

One hundred consecutive patients with aSAH scheduled for aneurysmal clipping were enrolled in this prospective and observational study. Preoperative and consecutive 5-day postoperative THRR measurements were taken. Primary objective of the study was to detect the incidence of ICA and its correlation with vasospasm (VS) postclipping, and neurological outcome at discharge and 1, 3, and 12 months was secondary objectives.

Results:

ICA (THRR < 1.09) was observed in 69 patients preoperatively, 74 patients on the 1st and 2nd postoperative day, 76 patients on 3rd postoperative day, and 78 patients on 4th and 5th postoperative day. Significant VS was seen in 13.4% and 61.5% of patients with intact THRR and deranged THRR, respectively (P < 0.000). Out of 78 patients who had ICA, 42 patients (53.8%) at discharge, 60 patients (76.9%) at 1 month, 54 patients (69.2%) at 3 month, and 55 patients (70.5%) at 12 months had unfavorable neurological outcome significantly more than those with preserved CA.

Conclusion:

Incidence of ICA assessed in aSAH patients varies from 69% to 78% in the perioperative period. The deranged CA was associated with significantly poor neurological outcome. Therefore, CA assessment using TCD-based THRR provides a simple, noninvasive bedside approach for predicting neurological outcome in aSAH.

Authors: Ishii Motonori , Nishimura Yusuke , Nagashima Yoshitaka , Tanei Takafumi , Nishihori Masahiro , Izumi Takashi , Saito Ryuta
Published: August 2023

Background:

Sacral dural arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) are often undiagnosed at the initial presentation due to their rarity.

Case Description:

For 1 year, a 71-year-old man developed progressive motor and sensory disturbances in both legs. Magnetic resonance imaging showed spinal cord edema with mild contrast enhancement at the T9–10 and T12 levels. Although mild venous dilatation was observed only at the cauda equina level, it was not initially recognized as abnormal. Blood and cerebrospinal fluid tests and spinal angiography of the lower thoracic to upper lumbar levels were nonspecific. The patient was unsuccessfully treated with three courses of high-dose intravenous methylprednisolone. Ultimately, following repeat spinal angiography (i.e., including the bilateral internal iliac arteries) that revealed a low-flow sacral dural AVF supplied by the right lateral sacral artery, the patient underwent successful surgical venous AVF occlusion/transection.

Conclusion:

In cases of spinal cord edema without perimedullary abnormal flow voids, careful spinal angiography including the sacral spine is necessary even if only minimal venous dilation is initially observed at the cauda equina level.

Authors: Muhammad Rosyadi  , Erlin
Published: August 2023

Citayam Fashion Week is a phenomenon that displays a model doing a fashion show using distinctive and unique clothing when crossing a zebra cross as a catwalk. This phenomenon has received extraordinary attention and discussion from various circles and led to numerous pros and cons among the public and observers of society in Indonesia. Therefore, it is great importance to conduct the study on sentiment analysis of this phenomenon to determine society's sentiment tendency to provide government references and help decision-makers improve their policies. Sentiment analysis was performed using the Support Vector Machine based on the polynomial kernel. The results shows that the accuracy, recall, precision and F1-Score value of 95.61%, 95.66%, 96% and 95.55%, respectively. This study proved that the Support Vector Machine classifier with the polynomial kernel provides higher algorithm performance on text classification. Therefore, the government can use the result of this study to evaluate the existence of the citayam fashion week which may be followed by other phenomena.
Mineralogy and Genesis of Karites of the Murun Complex
Authors: Плечов П.Ю. , Ушакова С.А. , Щербаков В.Д.
Published: August 2023

Карит относится к семейству силекситов и до сих пор являлся одной из немногих пород этого семейства, магматический генезис которой не подвергался сомнению. В работе изучен эталонный образец карита Мурунского щелочного комплекса из научно-исследовательского фонда Минералогического музея им. А.Е. Ферсмана. Порода состоит из кварца (73 об.%), эгирина (4 об.%), ортоклаза (23 об.%) и ряда акцессорных минералов, характерных для фенитов (нарсарсукит, стисиит-туркестанит, дэлиит и др.). Крупные идиоморфные кристаллы кварца с многочисленными ориентированными вростками эгирина создают внешнее сходство с порфировой структурой эффузивных пород. Условия формирования породообразующих минералов отвечают относительно низкой температуре (< 400 ℃). Возможно, порода сформировалась при проработке богатым кремнеземом флюидом/коллоидом/гелем грорудитового или эгиринитового субстрата. Изучение карита Мурунского комплекса не выявило ни одного признака магматического генезиса этих пород. Можно заключить, что кариты, подобно многим другим представителям семейства силекситов, имеют не магаматическую, а гидротермально-метасоматическую природу.

Published: August 2023

Although there are many reports on novel small organic cathode materials for rechargeable lithium and zinc batteries, there is still a lack of materials obtained with a facile synthesis from commercially available precursors, which also exhibit satisfactory cycling stability. Herein, we report a simple synthetic procedure for the simultaneous introduction of carbonyl and pyrazine units into small organic cathode materials. Materials were prepared through a condensation reaction between aromatic diamines and the sodium salt of rhodizonic acid. Building on an already known oxidized diquinoxalinecatechol (ODQC) material with cycling stability issues stemming from the dissolution in the electrolyte, we designed an expanded conjugated structure tetraquinoxalinecatechol (TQC). The ODQC shows fast capacity fading in Li-organic batteries having capacity retention of 16.8 % after 300 cycles at a current density of 50 mAg-1. The synthesis of the bigger TQC analog with lower solubility improves cycling stability with a high capacity retention of 82 % after 300 cycles at a current density of 50 mAg-1 and a maximum specific capacity of 223 mAhg-1 at an average voltage of 2.42 V vs. Li/Li+. In Zn-organic battery employing an aqueous electrolyte, TQC delivers a high maximum specific capacity of 301 mAhg-1 at 50 mAg-1 with an average voltage of 0.76 V, and 71 % capacity retention after 100 cycles.
pHbot: Self-Driven Robot for pH Adjustment of Viscous Formulations via Physics-informed-ML

Published: August 2023

pH adjustment is crucial for many industrial products, yet this step is typically performed by manual trial-and-error. A particularly industrially relevant yet challenging titration is that of adjusting viscous liquid formulations using weak, polyprotic titrants (usually citric acid). Handling of viscous, non-Newtonian formulations, with such polyprotic acids preferred for their chelation and buffering effects make a robotic solution challenging. We present a self-driving pH robot integrated with physics-informed learning; this hybrid physical-ML model enables automated titration with weak-strong acid/base pairs. To deal with the high viscosities of these formulations, we developed specific automated mixing and cleaning protocols. We hit the target pH within two to five iterations over 250 distinct formulations in labscale small-batch (~ 10 mL and 12 samples) titrations. In the interest of scaling up to match industrial processes, we also demonstrate that our hybrid algorithm works at ~25x scale-up. The method is general, and we open-source our algorithm and designs.
Trends of Pd3Au(111) alloy surface segregation in oxygen, carbon, and nitrogen environments
Authors: Vinogradova Olga V. , Reuter Karsten , Bukas Vanessa Jane
Published: August 2023

Catalytic properties of alloys are largely determined by the specific chemical composition at the surface. Differences in composition between surface and bulk regions depend intricately on both the parent metals and surrounding environment. While a non-reactive environment favors surface segregation of the more noble alloy component, a reactive environment such as oxygen is expected to draw the more active component to the surface. Using ab initio thermodynamics, we explore here the structure and composition of the Pd3Au(111) alloy surface in oxygen, carbon, and nitrogen containing environments. An extensive and systematic search of the available phase-space shows the segregation profile in an oxygen atmosphere to follow the anticipated picture described above, with O preferentially staying at the surface. In contrast, carbon at low coverages burrows deeper into the alloy substrate, without significant effect on the segregation profile. A nitrogen environment induces an intermediate behavior to oxygen and carbon where the nitrogen atoms first favor either surface or subsurface sites depending on the detailed metallic composition profile. Our results overall demonstrate the complex response that has to be expected for an active alloy surface during catalysis, while assessing the level of detail that is required to be accounted for in corresponding reaction models.

Covid-19 pandemic is a challenge for the regional government of Nganjuk Regency which is currently intensively realizing massive regional development. Various special policies continue to be made in order to optimize regional taxes as PAD source. This study aims to explore growth rate, effectiveness, and contribution of local taxes as a PAD source between before and after the Covid-19 pandemic, also the role of the Bapenda in efforts to increase regional taxes as PAD source. This study uses a quantitative descriptive method. The results of the study show that the growth rate of local taxes over a period of three years has a positive value indicating an increase in revenue performance during the Covid-19 pandemic. Judging from the effectiveness analysis, local tax performance is still categorized as very effective despite the reduced target in 2020 as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. On the other hand, the contribution of local taxes as a PAD source is categorized as moderate and has always decreased in the last three years. Entertainment tax is a local tax that has the lowest growth, effectiveness, and contribution rates over the last three years, so that the role of Bapenda as an authorized agency is needed. This research also shows that there were not many differences in the role of Bapenda between before and after the Covid-19 pandemic. The lack of awareness and compliance of taxpayers is the main obstacle that forces Bapenda to be directly involved in implementing various work programs.

Published: August 2023

Background

Usutu virus (USUV) is a flavivirus with an enzootic cycle between birds and mosquitoes; humans are incidental dead-end hosts. In Europe, the virus was first detected in Italy in 1996; since then, it has spread to many European countries.

Aim

We aimed to report on the epidemiology, surveillance, diagnosis and prevention of USUV infection in humans, mosquitoes and other animals in the European Union/European Economic Area (EU/EEA) from 2012 to 2021.

Methods

We collected information through a literature review, an online survey and an expert meeting.

Results

Eight countries reported USUV infection in humans (105 cases, including 12* with neurological symptoms), 15 countries in birds and seven in mosquitoes. Infected animals were also found among pets, wild and zoo animals. Usutu virus was detected primarily in Culex pipiens but also in six other mosquito species. Detection of USUV infection in humans is notifiable only in Italy, where it is under surveillance since 2017 and now integrated with surveillance in animals in a One Health approach. Several countries include USUV infection in the differential diagnosis of viral encephalitis and arbovirus infections. Animal USUV infection is not notifiable in any EU/EEA country.

Conclusion

Human USUV infections, mainly asymptomatic and, less frequently, with a febrile illness or a neuroinvasive disease, have been reported in several EU/EEA countries, where the virus is endemic. Climate and environmental changes are expected to affect the epidemiology of USUV. A One Health approach could improve the monitoring of its evolution in Europe.

Published: August 2023

This study aims to investigate empirical research to see the relationship between sustainability disclosure and firm value. This literature review is important for enhancing our understanding of the relationship between sustainability disclosure and firm value. Reviewing prior studies provides valuable insights and conclusions, and identifies trends, patterns, and gaps in the existing research. Articles were identified via publish or perish software and the Web of Science database. Through scanning with PRISMA, we analyzed 43 articles from 24 leading journals from 2007 to 2021. To the best of the researchers’ knowledge, a literature review on the relationship between sustainability disclosure and firm value is unprecedented. This study advances our knowledge of sustainability disclosure as a factor in firm value. In more detail, this study looks at the ideas that have been put out to explain the connection between the two variables and concludes that previous empirical investigations have not produced consistent findings regarding the relationship between sustainability disclosure and firm value. The relationship between sustainability disclosure and firm value has been explored from various theoretical perspectives: legitimacy theory, stakeholder theory, agency theory, signaling theory, and information asymmetry theory.
The Readiness of Consumers to Adopt Green Hotels in Indonesia: Does Trust Matter?
Authors: Gunawan Theresia , Erlina Magdalena , Subari Fransiska Anita
Published: August 2023

The number of hotels and consumers that are concerned about the green concept has been increasing, on the other hand, consumers are also becoming skeptical towards the practice of greenwash. Due to the limited availability of research regarding trust in green hotels in developing countries, the purpose of this study is to examine how the influence of attributes on green hotels can affect attitude, intention to stay, and willingness to pay a premium price, as well as how trust can mediate this relationship. The data were collected through a purposive sampling survey of 152 hotel consumers in Indonesia who could identify 5 of the 15 features of green hotels. The data were analyzed using the partial least squares method. The results confirm that the green hotel attributes do not affect the willingness to pay premium prices either with the existence or the absence of trust as a mediating factor. However, this research reveals that consumer trust is essential because it can be a mediating factor that can raise the willingness to stay at green hotels. This research is valuable to provide insight for hotel managers to develop strategies to increase the trust and sales of targeted green customers.

Authors: Nuñez-Peñaloza Jorge Luis , Pérez-Nieto Joel , Prado-Hernández Jorge Víctor
Published: August 2023

Una estrategia para evaluar suelos es mediante índices de calidad que dependen de indicadores específicos sobre los suelos muestreados, el tipo de cultivo y el manejo realizado. Los indicadores son variables físicas, químicas o biológicas medibles, que afectan la capacidad del suelo al ejercer una o varias de sus funciones. El objetivo de esta investigación fue examinar el uso metodológico de las diferentes propiedades físicas, químicas y biológicas del suelo usadas como indicadores de calidad para determinar índices de calidad del suelo en México, a través de una revisión bibliográfica realizada en el año 2022, para el período 2000-2021 mediante diversos buscadores de artículos científicos y palabras clave relacionadas al tema, con la finalidad de generar un diagnóstico y vislumbrar oportunidades de investigación. Se debe prestar mayor atención al estudio de la calidad de suelos en México, con base en información técnica y científica en regiones y estados dónde esta información siga siendo escasa. Producto de la revisión bibliográfica se propone como un conjunto de indicadores físicos: a la textura, densidad aparente, estabilidad de agregados, infiltración, resistencia a la penetración, curva de retención de humedad y profundidad del suelo; como indicadores químicos: materia orgánica, pH, nitrógeno total, nitrógeno inorgánico, fósforo, potasio, calcio y magnesio y como indicadores biológicos: carbono en la biomasa microbiana, respiración del suelo, densidad de lombrices, deshidrogenasa, β-glucosidasa, ureasa, fosfatasa y a los hongos micorrízicos arbusculares, optando por un subconjunto de indicadores o por un conjunto mínimo de datos para conformar un índice de calidad de suelo.
A 22 GHz Pseudo-correlation Water Vapor Radiometer.
Authors:   , Reeves Rodrigo
Published: August 2023

The radiation that comes from celestial objects is affected by different atmospheric components, mainly by water vapor, which is a highly variable component. This molecule can scatter, absorb and re-emit radiation and, therefore, attenuate it, affecting astronomical observations. Water vapor radiometry is an accurate method to measure the water vapor content in the atmosphere and, at altitudes 4000 masl, the 22 GHz emission line is chosen to estimate the amount of water vapor present in the at the time of the astronomical observation. This instrument, which is under development at CePIA UdeC laboratory, will provide a notable improvement in the measurement of the line profile of water vapor and will allow atmospheric characterizations that can be validated with other instruments in places where this quantity is relevant. The architecture designed for this project corresponds to a self-calibrated instrument, heterodine and is based on the pseudo-correlation principle. It consists of three parts: frontend, where incoming the RF signal is at a frequency range of 20 - 26 GHz; analog backend, where the RF signal is converted to a manageable frequency range of 0 - 6 GHz, called Intermediate Frequency (IF); and finally, the digital backend where the IF signal is processed in real-time through FFT, with a high spectral resolution of 62.5 kHz; the spectrum is divided intro three bands of 2 GHz each, in different Nyquist zones. Each output of the spectrometer is directly proportional to the brightness temperature of the load or the input, that provides a stable output measurement over time.

Authors:   , Lagos Aburto Leslie
Published: August 2023

La presente investigación analiza las formas y expresiones de religiosidad en el Egipto helenístico, considerando sus características y transformaciones desde las conquistas alejandrinas (334 a.C.) hasta la muerte de Ptolomeo I Sóter en el 283 a.C. El objetivo es abarcar el examen de la transformación de la ritualidad y sus elementos constituyentes presentes en el territorio en concordancia con los cambios políticos y demográficos que comienzan a surgir con las conquistas de Alejandro Magno, así como las medidas tomadas tanto por éste como por los comienzos de la dinastía Lágida en el territorio. Para esto, se aborda el problema tanto desde la perspectiva de la historia cultural, considerando a las fuentes más oportunas que nos hablan de la época, como lo son Diodoro Sículo, Plutarco, Arriano, Polibio, entre otros, así como el análisis de inscripciones y numismática del periodo abordado que nos dan cuenta de las mutaciones ritualísticas y sus efectos en la población del Egipto ptolemaico.
Understanding the Challenges of Implementing Green Roofs in Multi-Family Apartment Buildings: A Case Study in Khulna
Authors: Ara Ishmat , Zaman Sourav
Published: August 2023

Green roofs are widely recognized for their multifaceted benefits to the environment, economy, and society, constituting the fundamental pillars of sustainability. These roofs contribute to the enhancement of bio-physical diversity, provision of food resources, regulation of temperature and rainfall-runoff patterns, creation of wildlife habitats, and augmentation of aesthetic and recreational value. While Bangladesh, with its favourable climatic conditions and rapid urbanization, possesses immense potential for harnessing the advantages of green roofs, their adoption remains limited in both research and practical applications within the country. Addressing this research gap, the present study aims to investigate the barriers impeding the implementation of green roofs in existing or new multi-family apartment buildings, focusing specifically on the city of Khulna. Through a combination of case studies and a comprehensive questionnaire survey administered to diverse stakeholders including apartment dwellers/owners, architects, developers, and government officials with varying levels of expertise, this research sheds light on the obstacles hindering Green Roof Implementation (GRI). The identified barriers encompass a lack of governmental policies, inadequate technological advancements, inaccurate estimation of economic benefits, and individual resistance. In light of the perspectives of various GRI stakeholders, strategic proposals encompassing policy, technical, economic, and social dimensions are presented to surmount these barriers. The outcomes of this study contribute to the dissemination of knowledge pertaining to the impediments to GRI implementation, thereby inspiring further research endeavours and enabling decision-makers to formulate robust policies facilitating the widespread adoption of green roofs.

Badan Pusat Statistik (BPS) stated that the number of poor people in Indonesia reached 28.01 million people based on data as of March 2016. This figure is around 10.86 percent of the national population. Province of Maluku as the third poor contributor of all provinces in Indonesia reached 27.74 percent. Note that, there are 8 of total 11 districts/cities in Maluku which are determined as underdeveloped regions (Kementerian PDT, 2015), Maluku Barat Daya (MBD) is one of them. Based on data from BPS, in 2014 the percentage of poor people in district of MBD reached 28.33 percent being the second highest district in Maluku after Maluku Tenggara Barat (MTB). It is quite difficult make the poverty level of MBD lower, due to a large number of villages in MBD have some economic access isolations because of geographical conditions. Various programs and policies in social and health have been done to solve this poverty problem, but still could not overcome this problem yet.

In this paper we have grouped the districts/cities of Maluku based on poverty factors using Learning Vector Quantization (LVQ) method. The results of this research showed that there are 5 poverty clusters in Maluku. Those are: Cluster 1 consists of Maluku Tenggara Barat, Maluku Utara dan Buru; cluster 2 consists of Maluku Tengah; cluster 3 consists of Kep. Aru, Seram Bagian Barat dan Seram Bagian Timur, cluster 4 consists of Maluku Barat Daya dan Buru Selatan; and cluster 5 consists of Ambon and Tual. Each cluster describes the poverty level with respect to its Partition matrix respectively. The results that we obtained also show that cluster 4 has the highest poverty level.

HIV/AIDS is a disease that continues to grow and become a global problem that requires special attention. This can be seen from the high number of cases of HIV/AIDS every year. In this study, we discussed an analysis of stability of a point equilibrium and numerical simulation for the spread of HIV/AIDS. The mathematical models that we used is SIA (Susceptibles, Infected, Abstained) model. The model of SIA assumed that sub populations infected will increase because of the influence of the transmission rate sub populations infected to sub population susceptibles. However, mode of transmission of HIV is possible if the transmission of individual of sub populations abstained to individual of sub population susceptibles. The result of the model indicate that population growth rate is determined by theese parameters: birth, death, interaction and isolation. Based on the result of the model simulation showed that the impact of the sub populations abstained would affect so reduced sub population infected.
