: Introduction: Pisco sour is a Peruvian cocktail that is prepared with egg white, which can be contaminated with Salmonella Typhi. This research seeks to determine if pisco and lemon juice could inhibit the growth of Salmonella Typhi. First, Salmonella samples will be subjected to different concentrations of pisco. Later, lemon juice will be added to complete the preparation of the cocktail. The results of this research could help reduce the risk of contracting salmonellosis when consuming pisco sour.
Objective: The present investigation will allow us to know if the preparation with the raw egg white that is included in the recipe could be infected, causing an infection by Salmonella Typhi.
Methods: The research methodology is based on an experimental design. Samples of Salmonella Typhi, a strain of Salmonella commonly found in chickens, will be used. These samples will be subjected to different concentrations of pisco and lemon juice.
Results: In the first phase of the study, pisco was diluted in physiological saline. It was found that from a 1:2 dilution, the bacteria could grow. In the second phase, different amounts of pisco were added to samples of the bacteria. It was found that with 1 ounce (0.5 ml) of pisco, the bacteria could grow, but with 3 or 4 ounces (1.5 or 2 ml), the bacteria could not grow. In the third phase, 2 ounces (1 ml) of lemon were added to samples of the bacteria that had been exposed to different amounts of pisco. It was found that, regardless of the amount of pisco, the bacteria could not grow.
Conclusion: Pisco sour is a popular drink in Peru that contains raw egg, which can be contaminated with Salmonella Typhi. Pisco has antimicrobial properties and lemon has a low pH, both factors can help inactivate bacteria.

Key words: Salmonella Typhi, pisco sour, enterobacteria, lemon

Published: January 2025

Background and Aim of Study: Depression severity can be profoundly impacting the life of individuals, while its persistence can provoke the conviction that recovery is unattainable. One of the extreme consequences is the request for euthanasia. However, during major depression cognition can be significantly impaired. In this study, we comment on the exemplar case of a Belgian lady, Mrs. Godelieva de Troyer, who made that request and obtained the desired outcome.
The aim of the study: to consider a specific case of a patient with major depressive disorder and the role of doctors in informing the decision about medically assisted death.
Material and Methods: The history of the request made by Mrs. Godelieva is described. The procedure was followed by the reactive initiatives of the son of the lady, who made a formal complaint against the procedure that brought his mother to death and appealed the European Court of Justice.
Results: A description of what happened is briefly reported, including considerations on the clinical treatments received by Mrs. Godelieva, the roles interpreted by the doctors she consulted and, finally, the appropriateness of the decision taken.
Conclusions: In revisiting this case, the decision-making process during major depression episodes and the authenticity and robustness of end-of-life choices in similar cases are critically examined. Comments are made on the frequency of cognitive impairments during major depressive episodes and the need to provide depressed people the necessary support during their important choices.

Authors: Wang Shikai , Zhang Haodong , Zhou Shiji , Sun Jun , Shen Qi
Published: January 2025

This paper presents a new method for chip floorplanning optimization using deep learning (DRL) combined with graph neural networks (GNNs). The plan addresses the challenges of traditional floor plans by applying AI to space design and intelligent space decisions. Three-head network architecture, including a policy network, cost network, and reconstruction head, is introduced to improve feature extraction and overall performance. GNNs are employed for state representation and feature extraction, enabling the capture of intricate topological information from chip netlists. A carefully designed reward function incorporating wire length minimization, area utilization, and timing constraint satisfaction guides the DRL agent toward high-quality floorplan solutions. An exploration bonus based on reconstruction error addresses the sparse reward problem. Extensive testing of the ISPD 2005 benchmarks demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed approach, consistently operating on a state-of-the-art basis. Significant improvements include an average 31.4% reduction in half-perimeter wire length (HPWL) and a 34.2% reduction in breach time compared to the best baseline performance. The process scalability and robustness are evaluated, showing performance in various circuits and different perturbations. This research advances AI-driven electronic device design and paves the way for better chip design processes.
