Abstract
BackgroundMicrobial lipids have been emerging as a sustainable alternative to vegetable oils and animal fat to produce biodiesel and industrial relevant chemicals. The use of wastes for microbial processes can represent a way for upgrading low value feedstock to high value products, addressing one of the main goals of circular economy, the reduction of wastes by recycling. Two oleaginous yeasts, Rhodosporidiobolus azoricus and Cutaneotrichosporon oleaginosum, were used in this study to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed approach. ResultsIn this study wastes from industrial food processing, as pumpkin peels and syrup from candied fruits manufacture, were used for yeast cultivation and for lipids production. Evaluation of growth and sugar consumption revealed marked differences between the yeasts in capacity to utilize sucrose and glucose, the main sugars present in the feedstock. In particular, we observed an unexpected limitation in glucose metabolism on mineral media by R. azoricus. Both species showed ability to grow and accumulate lipids on media exclusively composed by undiluted pumpkin peels hydrolysate, and R. azoricus was the best performing. By a two-stage process carried out in bioreactor, this species reached a biomass concentration of 45 g/L (dry weight) containing 55% of lipids, corresponding to a lipid concentration of 24 g/L, with a productivity of 0.26 g/L/h and yield of 0.29 g lipids per g of utilized sugar. These values are close to the highest reported so far from organic wastes. ConclusionsWastes from industrial food processing were sufficient to completely support yeast growth and to induce lipid accumulation. This study provides strong evidence that the concept of valorisation through the production of lipids from the complete metabolism of nutrients present in agro-industrial wastes by oleaginous yeasts is promising for implementation of biotechnological processes in a circular economy contest.

Published: September 2021

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is a powerful spectroscopic technique for ultrasensitive and selective bio-chemical detection due to its capability of providing “fingerprint” information of molecular structures in low concentrations even at single molecular level. In this work, we present the silver nanoparticles/porous silicon (AgNPs/PSi) hybrid structures as SERS substrates prepared by a fast, straightforward and effective method using the PSi immersion plating in silver nitrate (AgNO3) solution. The nano-silvers can simultaneously grow on the surface and nano-pillars of porous silicon making quasi-three-dimension (quasi-3D) structural SERS substrate that has a large surface area to adsorb moleculars for SERS measurement. The proposed SERS substrate can detect Diphenylamine (DPA) with ultralow concentration of 10-9 M (~0.17 ppb), which would have higher enhancement than 2D surface SERS based on nano-silver deposited on silicon substrate and other electrochemical sensors.

Abstract
Manipulating the polarizations of electromagnetic waves by flexible and diverse means is desirable for a myriad of microwave systems. More recently, metasurfaces offer the promising alternatives to conventional polarization manipulating components because of the flexibility of their geometry could be arbitrarily customized. In this context, a bi-layered metasurface was presented to simultaneously manipulate the polarized states of reflected and transmitted microwaves. No matter whether the incident electromagnetic wave is x-polarized or y-polarized, the reflected and transmitted waves will be converted into orthogonal y- polarized waves at the operating frequency. The designed metasurface has a high polarization conversion rate(PCR) above 90% for both normal and oblique incidence. The experimental results verify the correctness of the simulated results. Finally, axial ratio and surface current distributions were employed to reveal the physics of polarization manipulation. The proposed metasurface will be beneficial to the design of flexible and versatile polarization converters and has great potential for applications in polarization controlled devices and also is believed extendable to higher frequency regimes.

Abstract
Background: The calf circumference (CalF), the strength, assistance in walking, rising from a chair, climbing stairs, and falls (SARC-F) and the SARC-CalF questionnaires for sarcopenia screening have been used by Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia 2019 (AWGS 2019). The aim of this study was to assess accuracy of these three sarcopenia screening tools in patients with interstitial lung disease. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, stable patients with interstitial lung disease were enrolled. The SARC-F, SARC-CalF, and CalF, used in patients with interstitial lung disease, were compared to the diagnostic criteria proposed by AWGS 2019. The accuracy of screening tools was compared using sensitivity and specificity. Moreover, areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves (AUC) were computed. Results: Seventy eight patients were analyzed, and sarcopenia was identified in 25 (32.1%) patients with interstitial lung disease by the AWGS 2019 criteria. The sensitivity of the CalF was highest (96%) of the three screening tools, while the specificity was 60%. The sensitivity of SARC-F and SARC-CalF were 24% and 68%, while the specificity were 92% and 66%, respectively. The AUCs of CalF, SARC-F, and SARC-CalF in all patients were 0.78, 0.58, and 0.67, respectively. Conclusions: The CalF is most suitable for screening sarcopenia in patients with interstitial lung disease, while SARC-F and SARC-CalF are not.

Abstract
BackgroundPeople with severe mental illnesses (SMI) such as schizophrenia die on average 15 to 20 years earlier than everyone else. Two-thirds of these deaths are from preventable physical illnesses such as hypertension, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes, which are worsened by weight gain. Antipsychotics are associated with significant weight gain. In RESOLVE, a realist synthesis, combining primary and secondary data, will be used to understand and explain how, why, for whom, and in what contexts non-pharmacological interventions can help service users to manage antipsychotic-induced weight gain.MethodsA five-step approach will be used to develop guidance:1. Developing the initial programme theoryAn initial (candidate) programme theory, which sets out how and why outcomes occur within an intervention, will be developed.2. Developing the search The initial programme theory will be refined using academic and grey literature. The proposed initial sampling frame is:Context: people living with SMI, taking antipsychotics, different types of SMI.Intervention: non-pharmacological interventions. Mechanisms: triggered by the intervention.Outcomes e.g. weight, metabolic adverse events, quality of life, adherence, burden, economic. Searching for relevant documents will continue until sufficient data is found to conclude that the refined programme theory is coherent and plausible. Lived Experience (service users) and Stakeholder (practitioners) groups will provide feedback.3. Selection, appraisal, data extractionDocuments will be screened against inclusion and exclusion criteria. Text extracted from these documents will be coded as contexts, mechanisms and their relationships to outcomes.4. Primary Data Collection Realist interviews with up to 30 service users and informal carers, and 20 practitioners will gather data to support, refute or refine the programme theory. 5. Data AnalysisA realist logic of analysis will be used to develop and refine the programme theory from secondary and primary data. The analysis will aim to identify practical intervention strategies to change contexts so that key mechanisms are triggered to produce desired outcomes. Guidance will be produced based on these strategies. DiscussionThis realist synthesis aims to develop guidance for service users and practitioners on the most appropriate interventional strategies to manage and limit antipsychotic weight gain.Systematic review registrationPROSPERO: CRD42021268697

Published: September 2021

Abstract
Background: Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) was considered as an immunosuppressive disease. Cross-talk between cancer cells and immune cells is modulated in part by chemokines CC ligands (CCL). However, the prognostic value and function of CCL in HNSCC have not been clarified. Methods: To identify the key members of CCL family, CCL17 and CCL22 were selected through co-expression analysis. We further evaluated the correlation between the expression of CCL17/CCL22 and cancer immune infiltration through TIMER and scRNA-seq data. TIDE database was used to evaluate whether these molecules can be used as targets for immunotherapy.Results: The results indicated high expression of CCL17 and CCL22 were associated with a better prognosis. CCL17/CCL22 might regulate the T cells activation and were positively correlated with the CD4+ T cells infiltration levels. CCL17/CCL22 can also act as a predictive biomarker for the response to immune checkpoint blockade in HNSCC patients.Conclusions: High expression of CCL17/CCL22 may predict a better response of immune checkpoint blockade therapy in HNSCC. These findings may elucidate the roles played by CCL17/CCL22 in HNSCC progression and identify a new strategy in promoting collaborative activities in the context of immunotherapy.

Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic has altered the way small and medium-sized businesses (SMEs) function. To maintain business efficiency and reduce operating costs in the context of the constraints imposed by the pandemic, SMEs have been forced to embrace new digital technologies. Cloud accounting is becoming an increasingly important business operating tool for SMEs. By adopting cloud-based accounting, SMEs can become more efficient, financially organized, and flexible. This study aims to investigate the factors that have a pervasive influence on cloud accounting adoption among SMEs in Thailand, following the pandemic's effects. This study integrates three technology adoption theories—the Technology-Organization-Environment framework, Diffusion of Innovation theory, and Institutional Theory—and studies them alongside SMEs' unique characteristics. The research employs a qualitative case study method and triangulated sources of evidence. The findings provide important implications for the research community, policymakers, cloud accounting vendors, and SME owners aiming to formulate better approaches to cloud accounting adoption after the pandemic. The results suggest that vendors should focus on SMEs' particular characteristics and needs. By contrast, SMEs should determine the organizational fit of the cloud accounting platform and integrate cloud accounting with other aspects of their operations.

Abstract
In this study graphene oxide (GO) reinforced polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) composites hydrogels were synthesized and used as efficient adsorbents for Drimarene Brilliant Blue K-4BL. GO nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized by modified Hummer’s method. The composites were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The results showed homogeneous dispersion of reinforcement in the synthesized composites. Moreover thermal stability of the composites was significantly enhanced by the addition of graphene oxide nanoparticles. The synthesized composites were used for the removal of Drimarene brilliant Blue from model waste water. The effect of pH, content of GONPs and initial concentration of Drimarene Brilliant Blue K-4BL on the adsorption capacity of synthesized GO/PVA composites were investigated. The equilibrium isothermal data were studied by applying Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models. Results demonstrated that the adsorption process is well described by the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. According to the Langmuir model, maximum adsorption capacity i.e. 32mg/g was obtained at 0.7% GO/PVA composite. From the kinetic study it was concluded that pseudo-second-order model is the best fitted. Synthesized composites showed excellent reusability (almost 95 %) for the adsorption of Drimarene Brilliant Blue K-4BL after four successive cycles of adsorption and desorption. Thus, the GO/PVA composites demonstrated a great potential in terms of cost effectiveness, efficiency and reusability for the removal of Drimarene Brilliant Blue K-4BL dye.
Phased Array Ultrasonic Test Signal Enhancement and Classification Using Empirical Wavelet Transform And Deep Convolution Neural Network

Published: September 2021

Abstract
In the recent past, Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) has become a most popular technology due to its efficiency and accuracy without destroying the object and maintains its original structure and gathering while examining external and internal welding defects. Generally, the NDT environment is harmful which is distinguished by huge volatile fields of electromagnetic, elevated radiation emission instability and elevated heat. Therefore, a suitable NDT approach could be recognized and practiced. In this paper, a novel algorithm is proposed based on Phased array ultrasonic test (PAUT) for NDT in order to attain the proper test attributes. In the proposed methodology, carbon steel welding section is synthetically produced with various defects and tested using PAUT method. The signals acquired from PAUT device is found with noise interference. The Adaptive Least Mean Square (ALMS) filter is proposed to filter PAUT signal in order to eliminate random noise and Gaussian noise. The ALMS filter is the combination of low pass filter (LPF), high pass filter (HPF) and band pass filter (BPF). The time domain PAUT signal is converted into frequency domain signal in order to extract more number of features by applying Empirical Wavelet Transform (EWT) algorithm. In the frequency domain signal, 1st order and 2nd order features extraction techniques are applied to extract various features for further classification. The Deep Learning methodology is proposed for classification PAUT signals. Based on the PAUT signal features, the Deep Convolution Neural Network (DCNN) is applied for further classification. The DCNN will classify the welding signal is whether it is defective or non-defective. The Confusion Matrix (CM) is used for estimation of measurement of performance of classification as calculating accuracy, sensitivity and specificity. The experiments prove that out proposed methodology for PAUT testing for welding defect classification is obtained more accurately and efficiently across existing methodologies by providing numerical and graphical results.
Rezension: Jürg Fisch, Eigentumsgarantie und Nichtersatzfähigkeit reiner Vermögensschäden
Authors: Schlegel Stefan 
Published: September 2021

In seiner Dissertation entwickelt Jürg Fisch die These, die Nichtersatzfähigkeit reiner Vermögensschäden — wie sie von der Rechtsprechung angenommen wird — stelle eine Verletzung der Eigentumsgarantie dar. Die These basiert auf drei Säulen. Erstens auf einem Verständnis der mittelbaren Drittwirkung von Grundrechten, das den Staat zum Schutz auch vor reinen Vermögensschäden verpflichtet. Zweitens auf der Vorstellung, wonach das Schutzobjekt der Eigentumsgarantie vorgesetzlich bestehe und daher das Vermögen an sich schützen müsse. Drittens auf der Überzeugung, dass Haftungsansprüche nicht auszuufern brauchen, wenn reine Vermögensschäden nicht mehr grundsätzlich von der Ersatzfähigkeit ausgeschlossen sind. Diese könnten in differenzierter Weise einer Haftung unterstellt werden. Die Praxis der Nichtersatzfähigkeit reiner Vermögensschäden sei daher unverhältnismässig und damit grundrechtswidrig. Die Arbeit ist von unbeirrbarer dogmatischer Gradlinigkeit und legt gnadenlos und stringent dogmatische Inkohärenzen offen. Ihr wichtigstes Verdienst liegt allerdings darin, dass sie ein grelles Licht auf den Umstand wirft, dass wir über kein Eigentumskonzept verfügen, das einerseits eingestehen kann, dass Eigentum nie «von Natur aus» besteht, und das andererseits dennoch Eigentum auch vor dem Gesetzgeber schützen kann.
--
Dans sa thèse, Jürg Fisch développe la théorie selon laquelle la non-réparation du dommage purement économique - telle que supposée par la jurisprudence - constitue une violation de la garantie de propriété. La théorie repose sur trois piliers. Premièrement, sur la compréhension de l'effet horizontal des droits fondamentaux qui oblige l'État à indemniser les dommages purement économiques. Deuxièmement, sur l'idée que l'objet de la protection de la garantie de propriété existe avant la concrétisation législative de celle-ci et doit donc être protégé en tant que tel. Troisièmement, sur la conviction que l’indemnisation de dommages purement économiques ne devrait pas entraîner une augmentation incontrôlable des actions en réparation. Ces dernières pourraient par exemple être soumises à un régime de responsabilité différent. La pratique actuelle consistant à exclure la réparation des dommages purement économiques est donc disproportionnée et contraire aux droits fondamentaux. L'ouvrage se veut d'une grande honnêteté intellectuelle et expose implacablement et rigoureusement les incohérences doctrinales. Son plus grand mérite consiste à mettre en lumière le fait que nous ne disposons pas d'un concept de propriété qui, d'une part, puisse admettre que la propriété n'existe jamais "par nature" et qui, d'autre part, puisse également protéger la propriété contre le législateur.
