Published: December 2024

Background:
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is the most prevalent chronic bacterial infection in humans. Limited research has been conducted both
internationally and locally to evaluate the general community’s collective understanding of an H. pylori infection, its diagnosis, and its
management.

Objective:
This study aims to evaluate the level of understanding of an H. pylori infection, its diagnosis, and management among the general population
residing in the western region of Saudi Arabia.

Methods:
The study employed a cross-sectional online survey method to gather data from a sample of 1,025 of the general population. Four major cities were
selected for this study: Makkah, Madinah, Jeddah, and Taif. The knowledge scores were classified into three categories: low, fair, and good.

Results:
The proportion of the population with a fair level of knowledge of H. pylori was less than 30% in all groups of the cities. A statistically significant
difference was observed between regions, with a P value of 0.022. Furthermore, there was a strong correlation between the respondents' degree of
knowledge and age (p < 0.001), education level (p < 0.001), number of family members at home (p < 000.1), monthly income (p < 0.001),
knowledge about an H. pylori infection (p < 000.1), and previous exposure to an H. pylori infection (p < 000.1).

Conclusion:
Most participants know about H. pylori. However, its transmission, link with stomach cancer, diagnosis, and treatment are difficult to understand.
Several additional educational and policy interventions are recommended to enhance public knowledge of H. pylori. To address the identified gaps
in understanding, targeted educational campaigns should be developed.
FHL1 Inhibition by Mir-1301-3p Promotes Uterine Corpus Endometrial Carcinoma Cell Proliferation and Migration: A Prognostic Insight
Authors: Zhu Mengna , Chen Buze , Miao Lu , Sun Jieyun , Li Yuanyuan , Zhang Pei , Lu Xiaoyuan 
Published: December 2024

Background:
The impact of microRNA-1301-3p (miR-1301-3p) on various
cancer subtypes is noteworthy. However, its specific role within the framework of
uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC) is yet to be clearly defined.

Objective:
The objective of this research was to investigate and clarify the function of
miR-1301-3p in relation to UCEC.

Methods:
Sample data for our study were sourced from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA).
Using various statistical techniques, we assessed the potential of miR-1301-3p as a
diagnostic and prognostic indicator, as well as its association with clinical characteristics.
Additionally, we conducted an analysis of the genes targeted by miR-1301-3p. The
expression levels of miR-1301-3p in uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC) cell
lines were determined by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). Cellular viability and
migratory capacity were measured using the CCK8 assay and Transwell migration assays,
respectively. Moreover, the expression levels of genes and proteins targeted by
miR-1301-3p were identified through dual-luciferase reporter gene assays and Western
blot analysis.

Results:
Expression patterns of miR-1301-3p varied across cancer subtypes, which were
significantly linked to specific histological classifications, achieving statistical significance
(p < 0.001). In UCEC, higher miR-1301-3p levels correlated with reduced overall
survival (p = 0.012) and progression-free survival (p = 0.016), and it emerged as an independent
prognostic marker for UCEC. A comparative analysis revealed significantly
higher miR-1301-3p levels in UCEC cell lines compared to normal endometrial epithelial
cells. Four and a half LIM domains 1 (FHL1) exhibited a negative correlation with
miR-1301-3p levels within UCEC tissue samples. miR-1301-3p was shown to promote
UCEC cell proliferation and migration through its binding to the 3'-untranslated region
(UTR) of the FHL1 gene, thereby repressing FHL1 expression. Additionally, augmenting
FHL1 levels was observed to counteract the enhancing impact of miR-1301-3p on
UCEC cells.

Conclusion:
miR-1301-3p regulates the proliferation and migration of UCEC cells by interacting
with the FHL1 gene. miR-1301-3p may serve as a promising prognostic biomarker
in UCEC.

Published: December 2024

Abstract:
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have a history of over a century of deployment,
but in recent decades, they have progressed at a staggering rate. Nowadays, UAVs are used by
a large number of civil and military applications. The communication functionality of a UAV
with external systems for control and charging is strongly connected with evolving technologies
and services. This leads to an increased number of alternatives when designing UAV
communications. This review presents the information needed for choosing an efficient communication
system between UAVs and two important elements, the Ground Control Station
(GCS) and the Charging Station (CS). GCS is responsible for monitoring and controlling the
UAV’s units, while CS is used for the formal charging of the UAV. This study aimed at collecting,
classifying, and evaluating all of the necessary information in order to obtain the final decision
about the kind of communication that is most efficient for a target UAV application.
The features of the telemetry open-source protocols are presented for the UAV-GCS communication
and evaluated according to the needs of the most significant application domains.
Communication between UAVs and CSs is classified depending on the existence of an intermediate
server and analyzed considering telemetry protocols and application domains. Communication
algorithms are evaluated in terms of time and energy efficiency. Lastly, for the
most significant application domains, the most suitable algorithms are matched.
Probiotics in Mitigating Adverse Effects of Intestinal Resection and Chemotherapy: A Meta-analysis
Authors: Furnari Salvatore , Furneri Pio Maria , Fuochi Virginia 
Published: December 2024

Introduction:
Colorectal cancer (CRC) imposes a significant burden on global healthcare
systems, particularly in Europe, where it ranks among the most diagnosed cancers and leading causes
of cancer-related deaths. With an estimated 50,000 deaths attributed to CRC in 2023 alone, a
pressing need for innovative approaches to prevention, early detection, and treatment is evident.
While chemotherapy and surgical resection remain crucial therapeutic strategies, they often entail
significant adverse effects, such as chemotherapy-induced diarrhea and post-surgical complications.

Methods:
Recent research underscores the role of the microbiota in modulating these side effects,
with dysbiosis associated with increased risks. Probiotics, known for their ability to restore microbial
balance, have emerged as a promising adjunctive therapy for mitigating treatment-related complications
in CRC patients. However, the efficacy of probiotics remains debated, necessitating a metaanalysis
to provide a comprehensive assessment. Hence, this study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of
probiotics in reducing complications in CRC patients undergoing chemotherapy and intestinal surgery.
For this purpose, thirteen randomized controlled trials (RCTs) meeting strict inclusion criteria
were included in the meta-analysis.

Results:
Probiotic administration was associated with significant reductions in postoperative infections,
including surgical site infections (SSI), pneumonia, urinary tract infections (UTI), and central
line infections, showing a Risk Ratio (RR) of 0.74 with a Confidence Interval (CI) of 95%. Moreover,
probiotics demonstrated efficacy in mitigating chemotherapy-induced diarrhea and postsurgical
complications, such as anastomosis loosening and abdominal disorders, with an RR of 0.35
and 0.74, respectively, with a CI of 95%. While promising, further research is needed to optimize
probiotic interventions and address potential interactions with concurrent therapies. Integrating probiotics
into perioperative care protocols presents a convincing opportunity to enhance surgical outcomes
and improve patient prognosis following CRC resection.

Conclusion:
Future randomized controlled trials should focus on identifying optimal probiotic
strains, dosages, and administration timing to maximize therapeutic benefits.
Production and Characterization of Pomelo Albedo Powder Based Pasta: Physicochemical, Functional, Textural and Sensorial Attributes
Authors: Sharma Simple , Singh Barinderjit , Srivastava Yashi 
Published: December 2024

Background:
Pomelo albedo peel byproducts are composed of many health-ben-eficial phytochemicals during processing. This study aimed to maximize the potential of incorporating pomelo albedo powder as a bioactive ingredient in pasta.

Methods:
In the present study, pomelo albedo was fortified with pasta at five different con-centrations (0, 3, 6, 9, and 12%), and its effects on the antioxidant, functional, textural, and sensorial attributes of pasta were investigated.

Results:
The results showed that the incorporation of albedo powder remarkably elevated the antioxidant properties and significantly increased the WAC (121.23 to 188.97%) and OAC (110.15 to 136.55%). An increase in pomelo albedo is associated with a decrease in cooking time from 10.24 to 8.28 min with cooking loss that is within an acceptable range. The pomelo albedo formulation improved the color and sensorial attributes. A higher albedo concentration significantly reduced the breaking stress, fracturability, firmness, and hard-ness but increased the adhesiveness and cohesiveness of pasta. FTIR spectra revealed the presence of characteristic peaks, and SEM reflects pomelo albedo's impact on the structural integrity of the pasta.

Conclusion:
On the basis of physiochemical, cooking, and sensory data, pasta with a 6% pomelo albedo formulation was found to be the most acceptable, with an overall acceptabil-ity of 8.51. Thus, pomelo albedo can be incorporated into the industry for the preparation of pasta with enhanced nutritional characteristics.

Authors: Salsabila Aflah Nuraini , Basuki Amin 
Published: December 2024

This research aims to analyze request strategies in the movie Yours, Mine & Ours (2005). In particular, it attempts to identify and classify request strategies used by the main characters in the movie using the theory of request strategies proposed by Blum-Kulka and Olshtain (1984). This research also analyzes the differences of request strategies influenced by speaker's and hearer's age which are divided into four age groups: adult, teenager, pre-teen, and children. The data used in this research are all utterances containing requests made by the main characters in the movie. In Yours, Mine & Ours, the requests occur in the family domain and informal situations. The results show that the strategy that is most used by all age groups is Mood Derivable, which belongs to Direct Strategy. It also shows that adult is the age group that uses Direct Strategy the most and uses more types of strategy than the other age groups. Furthermore, the research also found that all age groups prefer to use Mood Derivable when the hearer is from the same and younger age group. Meanwhile, when the hearer is from older age group, the speaker prefers to use Reference to Preparatory Conditions.

Published: December 2024

The rapid development of technology has made an earth-shattering innovation take the world by storm: Artificial Intelligence (AI). This study aims to determine the perceptions and practices of teachers and students in using AI in the classroom. Four university teachers and 30 students were sent questionnaires, and four teachers and 23 students were given online structured interviews. The results stated that in the student group, as many as 24 respondents (80%) had a good perception of AI, and six respondents (20%) had an excellent perception of AI. Meanwhile, in the teacher group, three respondents (75.0%) had a favorable perception, and one teacher respondent (25.0%) had a very favorable perception of AI. This result is also reinforced by the practice of students' and teachers' perspectives of AI, which state that AI is beneficial in eliciting students’ responses, attracting students’ attention, and increasing their motivation and creativity. Nevertheless, AI is just an intelligent tool; no matter how excellent and optimal the tool is, how much potential humans can utilize depends on the use and the user himself.

Research on Price Prediction of Calligraphy and Painting Artworks Based on Machine Learning
Authors: Ziyuan Ai 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
With the rapid development of the Chinese economy, people’s consumption structure has changed, and the investment in art and the tendency towards finance are increasing. The 13th Five Year Plan for the Development of National Cultural Relics clearly proposes to increase the protection of cultural relics and take multiple measures. Artworks have long been an essential investment target in the international capital market and belong to high value-added assets. In order to accurately predict the prices of calligraphy and painting artworks, this study proposes a machine learning based art price prediction method by combining ARCH model and Random Forest Regression (RFR) algorithm. Firstly, this study utilizes the ARCH model to capture the agglomeration effect of volatility in price time series, and reveals the inherent laws and volatility characteristics of price changes. Secondly, the Random Forest Regression (RFR) algorithm is introduced for price prediction. By constructing multiple decision trees and synthesizing their results, the non-linear and high-dimensional features of the data are effectively addressed. Research has shown that the RFR model exhibits high accuracy and stability in predicting art prices with multiple variables and complex relationships.

Authors: Del Barrio-Álvarez Elena , Herrero-Lázaro Marta , Moreno-Jiménez Bernardo 
Published: December 2024

La capacidad para gestionar y mantener la experiencia hedónica de disfrute ha sido denominada gaudibilidad por Padrós (2002). Para su evaluación, su autor elaboró la Escala de Gaudibilidad, que ha sido empleada en diversas poblaciones clínicas y aportado resultados interesantes acerca del funcionamiento de las estrategias de mantenimiento y elongación del disfrute; sin embargo, él propio autor recomendó una revisión de este instrumento por las limitaciones psicométricas de que adolecía. Así, el presente estudio da cuenta de un análisis factorial exploratorio y confirmatorio del instrumento en una muestra de 476 estudiantes de psicología. Se comprueba su validez convergente y divergente y se analiza su funcionamiento como mediador del efecto del estrés percibido sobre la satisfacción con la vida. Los resultados sugieren que de este modo la escala pasaría de tener un solo factor a ser una escala de veinte reactivos concuatro factores relacionados y catorce ítems.

Evaluación de comportamientos preventivos del COVID-19 a través del Modelo de Creencias de la Salud
Authors: Fernández-Iglesias Vianney Daianee , Román-Pérez Rosario 
Published: December 2024

El Modelo de Creencias de la Salud (MCS) ha sido ampliamente utilizado desde hace décadas para explicar y predecir el comportamiento saludable de las personas y se ha mantenido vigente en los estudios sobre padecimientos actuales, como el COVID-19. Aunque su utilidad se ha comprobado desde entonces, la complejidad de las decisiones sobre los comportamientos preventivos plantea la necesidad de examinar sus alcances en el caso de personas de edad avanzada por ser las de mayor riesgo. Objetivo: Analizar los hallazgos de estudios efectuados en distintos países utilizando el MCS para la prevención del virus SARS-CoV-2. Método: Se llevó a cabo una búsqueda en la base de datos PubMed de los años 2020 al 2022, empleando para ello cualquiera de las siguientes palabras: health belief model, preventive behavior, older adults y COVID-19 pandemic. Se desplegaron 187 resultados, de los cuales 12 cumplieron con los criterios de inclusión. Resultados: En algunos trabajos se asociaron las variables sociodemográficas con el cuidado de la salud; en otros, se halló que el uso de medios cibernéticos influye en la cantidad de información, y que el cumplimiento de medidas preventivas se ve afectado por el costo o la escasez de los insumos. Discusión: En futuros estudios se propone considerar la dimensión sociocultural, la perspectiva de género y el uso de la metodología cualitativa para analizar las creencias de las personas adultas mayores.

Authors: Ceja-Magallanes Andrea Joana Ceja-Magallanes , Manzo-Chávez María del Carmen , Padrós-Blázquez Ferrán 
Published: December 2024

Introducción: Se estima que aproximadamente 163 millones de menores en 93 países son huérfanos o carecen de figuras de referencia permanentes. Se ha señalado que los niños que han sido institucionalizados son más propensos a desarrollar un apego de tipo inseguro. Sin embargo, los estudios cuantitativos son todavía escasos. Objetivo: Analizar las posibles diferencias en el tipo de apego entre adolescentes institucionalizados y adolescentes controles que viven y se han criado con sus familiares. Método: Se administró la versión reducida del CaMir-R (Cartes, Modeles Individuels de Relation) a 319 adolescentes (M = 13.89; D.E. = 1.93), de los cuales 20 estaban institucionalizados. Resultados: Se observó una puntuación significativamente menor en las escalas de seguridad e interferencia de los padres en el grupo de institucionalizados respecto al grupo control. En el grupo de participantes institucionalizados se observó asimismo un mayor porcentaje de apego inseguro, no así en el grupo control, en que la mayoría mostró un apego seguro. Discusión y conclusiones: Los resultados son congruentes con los postulados teóricos y los estudios previos. Estos resultados pueden ser de gran utilidad para la prevención de psicopatologías en los adolescentes institucionalizados.

Authors: García-Valenzuela Leticia Rubí , Valtierra-Oba Elva Rosa , Díaz de León-Castañeda Christian 
Published: December 2024

Este trabajo tuvo como objetivo contribuir al estudio de la validez y confiabilidad de la versión en español de la Escala de Valoración de Capacidad de Autocuidado (ASA) en mujeres en adultez de temprana a media (de 21 a 59 años de edad). Se construyó un cuestionario con los 24 ítems de la Escala ASA, con ítems para explorar específicamente variables sociodemográficas, conductas y condiciones de salud, incluyendo la medición de peso y talla de las participantes. Se aplicó el cuestionario a 445 participantes, utilizándose como técnicas de análisis el análisis factorial confirmatorio del modelo unidimensional; la determinación de consistencia interna (coeficiente α) y el análisis de relación con las otras variables, como correlaciones y la comparación de grupos. Se propuso una ligera modificación de la escala ASA original, consistente en la eliminación de ítems inversos. Como resultados, comparada con la escala ASA original, la versión reducida de 21 ítems presentó mejor evidencia de validez factorial, con mejores índices de ajuste y confiabilidad. El análisis de relación con otras variables fue similar en ambas escalas, destacando la comparación de grupos y la correlación estadísticamente significativa con el índice de masa corporal. Se concluye que la versión en español de la escala ASA tiene validez y confiabilidad para evaluar la capacidad de autocuidado en mujeres, y en particular evidencias basadas en la relación con otras variables.
