Abstract
This study proposes a novel drape test method for fully formed knitted flared skirts, specifically tailored to account for the three-dimensional (3D) morphology of the human body. The objective is to accurately assess the drape characteristics of such skirts by developing a comprehensive testing approach. First, a 3D human body model in multiple postures was created using 3ds-Max modeling software and then printed with a 3D printer to serve as a customized test stand. The design and knitting principles for the fully formed flared skirt were examined, and samples were produced using a Shima Seiki four-needle bed computerized flat knitting machine. After fitting the skirt samples onto the 3D-printed human model, drape characteristics were measured with a YG811 drape tester. Using 18 sample skirts, the drape data were analyzed with SPSS26.0 software, revealing that the 3D-printed human model method allows for precise measurement of the drape in fully formed knitted fabrics. This approach offers a more realistic and accurate assessment of drapes, contributing valuable insights for textile design and evaluation in knitted garment production.

Abstract
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a common metabolic disorder during pregnancy characterized by glucose intolerance, which poses risks to both maternal and fetal health. Baicalein, a flavonoid derived from the roots of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi, exhibits various biological functions and has been implicated in the modulation of several diseases. However, the regulatory effects and underlying mechanisms of Baicalein in GDM progression remain unclear. In this study, we found that Baicalein ameliorates metabolic disturbances in GDM mice by improving glucose tolerance, insulin sensitivity, fasting blood glucose levels, and plasma insulin levels. Additionally, Baicalein treatment positively impacted litter size and birth weight. GDM mice exhibited increased inflammation and oxidative stress, which were mitigated following Baicalein administration (40 mg/kg). Furthermore, elevated protein levels of NLRP3, IL-1β, and IL-18 observed in GDM mice were reduced by Baicalein treatment. In conclusion, Baicalein inhibits the NLRP3 inflammasome and alleviates placental inflammation and oxidative stress associated with GDM. These findings provide valuable insights into the potential therapeutic role of Baicalein in managing GDM.

Abstract
Retinal diseases, which can lead to significant vision loss, are complex conditions involving various cellular and molecular mechanisms. The interleukin-6 (IL-6) family, particularly Oncostatin M (OSM), has garnered attention for their roles in retinal inflammation, angiogenesis, and neuroprotection. This comprehensive review explores the dual nature of OSM and other IL-6 family members in retinal pathophysiology, highlighting their contribution to both degenerative and regenerative processes. The review also examines current research on OSM’s interaction with key signaling pathways and discusses the potential of OSM and the IL-6 family as potential therapeutic targets. Understanding these mechanisms could lead to innovative treatments that modulate OSM activity, offering new avenues for managing retinal diseases and contributing to the development of more effective interventions.

Published: January 2025

Abstract
In this article, a hollow flange beam (ARHFB) composed of self-piercing rivet (SPR) and galvanized steel sheet was proposed, and the process parameters and mechanical properties of SPR connection technology for Q235 galvanized steel sheet were studied. Through the Taguchi method tests, the thickness of the joint section and the interlocking depth were measured. The tensile and shear tests were carried out, respectively, to obtain the corresponding quasi-static curves. In the four-point bending experiment of ARHFB, the effects of connection including welding, self-tapping screw, and SPR on the bending resistance of ARHFB were compared. The bearing capacity of ARHFB with self-tapping screws is significantly lower than that of welded ARHFB, and the 100 mm spacing SPR connection has strong substitutability for welding.

Abstract
Copper (Cu(II)) gets ionised easily, leaches into food, and becomes environmentally toxic. Hence, Cu(II) tolerant bacterial strains with high biosorption potential were screened from fruit, dairy and flour mill waste by in vitro antimicrobial susceptibility testing methods. Based on high tolerance capabilities (>250 mM Cu(II) ions), two strains, Klebsiella pneumonia (V1) and Cronobacter sakazakii (V2), were identified through genetic characterisation. The Cu(II) biosorption mechanism (V1, V2, V1 + V2) was further evaluated through the viable/dead cell method. The maximum biosorption of Cu(II) (91.3 %) was achieved in optimised conditions (pH 5–6, 30 °C and 30 min contact time) through V1 + V2 and well-fitting with Freundlich (R
2 = 0.9764) and Langmuir (R
2 = 0.9834) isotherm plots. Further, the exopolysaccharides from food waste were produced through a fed-batch fermentation process, where the V2 strain produced a maximum of 224.52 mg/L. The bacterial biosorbents reported in this study could benefit industrial applications.

Published: January 2025

Abstract
1.0 wt.% Y2O3 (alloy SY), TiO2 (alloy ST), ZrO2 (alloy SZ), dispersed 79W–10Ni–5Nb–5Mo (in weight%) alloys have been produced by mechanical alloying with 5:1 ball to powder weight ratio (BPR) for 20 h at 300 rpm in toluene medium. The powders were consolidated by spark plasma sintering at 1,100 °C for 5 min and at 65 MPa pressure. Oxidation study of the consolidated alloys was carried out at 1,000 °C for 10 h to establish the sustainability at elevated temperature. The study shows that alloys SY, ST exhibit compressive residual stress and alloy SZ evidences tensile residual stress in the oxidized condition. The oxidation rate is significantly lower in alloy SY due to passive layer formation facilitated by Y2O3 and Ni. The oxidation kinetic study also suggests substantial reduction in rate constant in alloy SY. The present study also provides interesting inputs regarding development of oxidation resistant alloys for high temperature applications.

Published: January 2025

Abstract
The study investigates joining AA6061-T6 and AA5083-H12 aluminum alloys, each 6 mm thick, in a butt joint. It aims to analyze the impact of varying input parameters on the microstructural and mechanical properties of the joints. Three tool rotation speeds (900, 1,120, 1,400 rpm) and welding speeds (40, 63, 80 mm min−1) are examined. Temperature in the weld zone correlates with tool rotation speed positively and welding speed inversely. Initially, the average grain size in the stir zone decreases with increasing tool rotation (900–1,120 rpm) and welding speed (40–63 mm min−1), then increases with further increments (1,400 rpm, 80 mm min−1). Tensile strength increases by 7 % from 900 to 1,120 rpm but decreases by 19 % at 1,400 rpm. Similarly, it rises by 14 % from 40 to 63 mm min−1, then decreases by 6 % at 80 mm min−1. Optimal mechanical properties occur at 1,120 rpm and 63 mm min−1, with ductile mode failure identified in joints with higher efficiency.

Published: January 2025

Abstract

Objectives
The literature about atypical cells in automated urine analyzers begins with the introduction of Sysmex UN. While modern urinalysis instruments report various kinds of epithelial cells, presence of atypical cells has not been considered. This study aims to observe the efficiency of the atypical cells parameter on Sysmex UN Automated Urine Analyzer with respect to customary manual urine cytology.

Methods
The patients with any indication for a cystoscopy examination were enrolled for the study between March 2022 and October 2022. Voided urine samples were gathered before the cystoscopy and bladder washing sampling was performed afterwards. Bladder washing samples were divided into two; one part was sent for urine cytology and the other was sent for urinalysis. Bladder biopsy was performed if cystoscopy evaluation was suspicious for malignancy.

Results
Thirty three patients (4 females and 29 males) underwent cystoscopy examination for suspicious bladder lesions and 15 of these patients were diagnosed as bladder cancer: nine were high-grade and six were low-grade bladder cancer due to their pathologic test results. Cytology examination results were negative for all patients. Using follow-up histologic diagnosis of urothelial carcinoma as a reference standard, the sensitivity of the atypical cells parameter on Sysmex UN was 27 %, specificity 78 %, positive predictive value 50 %, negative predictive value 56 %.

Conclusions
The results of this study confirmed the ability of Sysmex UN on detecting atypical cells in urine. Yet, the performance of the instrument needs to be improved before the parameter is presented for routine application.

Abstract
Nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg waren die angewandten Natur- und Ingenieurwissenschaften in Deutschland zunächst über das alliierte Kontrollratsgesetz Nr. 25 verboten. Auf britischer Seite war für die Überwachung der Forschungstätigkeit der Research Branch der britischen Kontrollkommission verantwortlich. Ihm oblag es auch, die Wissenschaftslandschaft in der britischen Besatzungszone neu zu strukturieren und Forschungsvorhaben deutscher Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftler zu fördern, die nicht dem Gesetz Nr. 25 unterlagen. Jessika Wichner untersucht auf der Basis eingehenden Quellenstudiums die vielfältigen Tätigkeiten des Research Branch zwischen 1945 und 1951 und kommt dabei zu überraschenden Ergebnissen.
Nachwuchs für die Leistungsgesellschaft
Authors: Kreis Reinhild 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
Im Laufe des 20. Jahrhunderts wurde eine wachsende Anzahl von Tätigkeitsfeldern in Wettbewerbsformate überführt. Insbesondere Wettbewerbe für Kinder und Jugendliche wurden zu einem Massenphänomen, das gleichermaßen in Demokratien und Diktaturen, in markt- und planwirtschaftlichen Gesellschaften attraktiv war. Reinhild Kreis untersucht die Wettbewerbe als Modus der Gestaltung gesellschaftlicher und wirtschaftlicher Ordnung in ihren Kontinuitäten und Brüchen für den NS-Staat, die Bundesrepublik und die DDR. Sie werden als Praktiken der Leistungszuschreibung gedeutet, die Denk- und Verhaltensweisen und damit sowohl individuelle wie auch kollektive Zukünfte prägen sollten.

Nuevas perspectivas sobre la Filosofía Mexicana
Authors: Trejo Villalobos Raúl 
Published: January 2025

Durante las últimas décadas, ha resurgido la polémica sobre la existencia de la “Filosofía en México”. Además del universalismo y el particularismo, hay una cuestión que aparece reiteradamente en esta polémica: la de la la distinción entre “Filosofía en México” y “Filosofía Mexicana”. Sin embargo, no todos la significan de la misma manera. Así, para Aureliano Ortega, ha existido una “Filosofía Mexicana” en términos de una filosofía dispersa; para Mauricio Beuchot, ha habido y puede seguir habiendo una “Filosofía Mexicana”, en el sentido de un Universalismo analógico (en el esfuerzo de replantear el universalismo concreto de Hegel); Guillermo Hurtado, por su parte, propone hablar de una meta filosofía práctica, para abordar la cuestión; y, por último, Carlos Pereda sugiere que, para hablar de “Filosofía Mexicana”, en buenos términos, es necesario cambiar un vicio, el del entusiasmo nacionalista, por una virtud, el del nacionalismo responsable.

Published: January 2025

In Indonesia, comprehensive management and monitoring of persistent neonatal hypoglycemia, is rarely reported. Despite the fact that there are studies highlighting the risk of neurodevelopmental disorders in neonates with hypoglycemia, there seems to be limited comprehensive case reports detailing both the early diagnosis and the long-term growth and development monitoring in these neonates. A unique case report of a 10-day-old male baby, born at a term weeks gestation via caesarean section, diagnosed with persistent hypoglycemia and suspect of hyperinsulinemia is presented in this study. At birth, the neonate exhibited hypoglycemia with a blood glucose level of 25 mg/dL, accompanied by a one-minute seizure characterized by upward gaze and stiffening of the extremities. The neonate cried after seizure and there was no loss of consciousness and was admitted to the NICU due to worsening respiratory distress. Based on the thoracic X-ray examination, he was diagnosed with transient tachypnea of newborn (TTN). Blood glucose levels were monitored every four hours, and tests for cortisol, thyroid and growth hormone and routine urinalysis were planned. Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) were given with intravenous antibiotics. At 6months of age, the infant was diagnosed with intellectual disability by the growth and development social pediatric unit. At 7 months, the infant began undergoing physiotherapy. This case was followed for 7 months in total and the findings highlight the challenges in managing neonatal persistent hypoglycemia and the potential long-term developmental implications in neonates with early-life hypoglycemia, emphasizing the need for continual growth and development monitoring.

Glaucoma is the global leading cause of irreversible blindness. Primary angle closure glaucoma occurs most frequently in Asian populations, including in Indonesian population. Surgical management of Primary Angle Closure Glaucoma (PACG) includes cataract extraction, trabeculectomy, or combined phacotrabeculectomy. Many patients presented in the advanced stages of the disease with significant cataracts, requiring combined surgery. This study aimed to determine whether trabeculectomy alone was better in reducing intraocular pressure compared to phacotrabeculectomy in primary angle closure glaucoma. This was an analytic retrospective observational study reviewing medical records of PACG patients underwent trabeculectomy or phacotrabeculectomy from January to December 2015, within a 5-year follow-up period of a tertiary eye hospital. The success rates of the two groups were assessed with Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. Success criteria were defined as > 20% reduction of IOP or IOP <21 mmHg with or without medication. Results showed 104 and 41 eyes underwent trabeculectomy and phacotrabeculectomy, respectively. The cumulative 5-year survival rate in trabeculectomy group was 58.6%, and 85.4% in phaco trabeculectomy. There was no statistical difference in the success rate between the trabeculectomy and phaco trabeculectomy groups (p=0.102). Postoperative complications observed in the phacotrabeculectomy group were one choroidal detachment, one malignant glaucoma, and one vitreous prolapse. Thus, the cumulative success rate of phacotrabeculectomy was better than trabeculectomy after 5 years of follow up, albeit not statistically significant.

Published: January 2025

In nephrolithiasis/urolithiasis, urine pH is thought to modulate kidney stone formation at various stages, including crystallization, growth, aggregation, and retention. Moreover, numerous studies have demonstrated that an increase in Body Mass Index (BMI) correlates with a decrease in urine pH. This study aimed to determine the relationship between BMI and urine pH in cases of nephrolithiasis at Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital Bandung. This was analytical observational study with a cross-sectional design, followed by correlation analysis is carried out. A total of 100 patients from January 2021 to December 2022 have met the inclusion criteria. From the results of the analysis, it was discovered that of the 21 patients with acidic urine pH, 42.11% had normal BMI, 26.32% were grade 1 obese, 15.79% were grade 2 obese, 10.53% were overweight, and 5.26% were underweight. The majority of patients who had normal urine pH also had a normal BMI (34.18%), followed by 30.38% with grade 1 obesity, 21.52% with grade 1 obesity, and 13.92% with grade 2 obesity. Of the 2 patients with alkaline urine pH, one person had a normal BMI and another had an overweight BMI. The results of the chi-square test presented a p value of >0.05, thus no significant relationship is observed between urine pH and BMI in nephrolithiasis patients.

INTRODUCTION
To inform development of a breastfeeding intervention for public assistance clients, we aimed, through qualitative methods, to explore public health staff members’ perspectives of facilitators and barriers to initiating and continuing breastfeeding for clients and strategies to improve breastfeeding rates.

METHODS
We conducted focus groups with staff from Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) in Massachusetts and Virginia to identify the strategies WIC staff uses to encourage and support breastfeeding by leveraging facilitators and overcoming barriers to inform the development of a breastfeeding intervention. Data collection and analysis followed an iterative process using constant comparison by a diverse group of researchers with expertise in qualitative methods. Focus groups were continued until thematic saturation was reached.

RESULTS
Fifty-one WIC staff members participated in 7 focus groups. Themes related to strategies used to promote breastfeeding included providing education with subthemes relating to anticipatory guidance, normalization of breastfeeding, and the importance of tailored messaging; education format with subthemes regarding timing of education and engagement of support networks; relationship building including subthemes of establishing rapport and sharing personal experiences; and resource provision.

CONCLUSION
WIC staff identified the importance of providing specific, concrete information about breastfeeding and strategies to breastfeed while working and caring for other children. The importance of connecting with clients to build trust and increase social support for breastfeeding clients was also identified. This study provided valuable information to help guide the development of a breastfeeding intervention.
