Polarization of Gamma-Ray Burst Afterglows in the Context of Non-axisymmetric Structured Jets
Authors: Li Jin-Da , Gao He , Ai Shunke , Lei Wei-Hua 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
As the most energetic explosion in the Universe, gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are usually believed to be generated by relativistic jets. Some mechanisms (e.g., internal nonuniform magnetic dissipation processes or the precession of the central engine) may generate asymmetric jet structures, which are characterized by multiple fluctuations in the light curve of the afterglow. Since the jet’s structure introduces asymmetry in radiation around the line of sight (LOS), it is naturally expected that polarization will be observable. In this work, we reveal the polarization characteristics of GRB afterglows with a non-axisymmetric structured jet. Our results show that the afterglow signal generally exhibits polarization, with the degree and evolution influenced by the specific jet structure, observing frequency, and the LOS. The polarization degree is notably higher when the LOS is outside the jet. This degree fluctuates over time as different regions of radiation alternate in their dominance, which is accompanied by the rotation of the polarization angle and further reflects the intricate nature of the jet. Regarding its evolution over frequency, the polarization degree displays significant fluctuations at spectral breaks, with the polarization angle possibly undergoing abrupt changes. These features may provide strong evidence for the future identification of potential GRBs with asymmetric jet structures.
CO Observations of the Type Ia Supernova Remnant 3C 397 by the Nobeyama 45 m Radio Telescope: Possible Evidence for the Single-degenerated Explosion
Authors: Ito D. , Sano H. , Nakazawa K. , Mitsuishi I. , Fukui Y. , Sudou H. , Takaba H. 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
We present a new CO observation toward the Type Ia supernova remnant 3C 397 using the Nobeyama 45 m radio telescope at an unprecedented angular resolution of ∼18″. We newly found that the CO cloud at V
LSR = 55.7–62.2 km s−1 (60 km s−1 cloud) shows a good spatial correspondence with the radio continuum shell. We also found an expanding gas motion of the 60 km s−1 cloud with an expansion velocity of ∼3 km s−1, which is thought to be formed by the pre- and/or postsupernova feedback. By considering the positions of Galactic spiral arms and the X-ray/H i absorption studies, we concluded that 3C 397 is physically associated with the 60 km s−1 cloud rather than the previously known CO cloud at V
LSR ∼ 30 km s−1. Given that the previously measured preshock density is ∼2–5 cm−3, the expanding motion of the 60 km s−1 cloud was likely formed by the presupernova feedback known as optically thick wind. The scenario is consistent with the fact that 3C 397 exploded inside a wind-blown bubble as a single degenerate system.
Long-term monitoring data on Popillia japonica (Newman, 1838) (Coleoptera, Rutelidae) across the Azorean Islands

Published: December 2024

The Japanese Beetle, Popillia japonica Newman, 1838 (Coleoptera, Rutelidae), is a univoltine agricultural pest that poses a serious threat to various agricultural crops. For more than 16 years, the Azorean official authorities have implemented a Long-Term Ecological Research (LTER) programme that is crucial for understanding the dynamics of insect pests, such as the Japanese Beetle, and their impacts on agricultural ecosystems. The significance of this long-term monitoring extends beyond understanding the pest's life cycle. By sharing this long-term monitoring data with the scientific community, we hope it allows for a more comprehensive assessment of P. japonica success and spread, enabling a deeper understanding of how this pest interacts and correlates with biotic and abiotic factors to uncover patterns and trends crucial for effective pest management.
In the Azores Archipelago, P. japonica adults emerge from pupae at the end of May and peak in density by early July, persisting until October. Larvae develop through three instars, with the third instar grub pupating by early May. This lifecycle highlights the pest population's seasonal activity, including the timing of emergence, adult stages and larval stages. It reveals when and for how long the pest is active in each of its life stages and provides critical information for pest management strategies. Worldwide, this pest can cause damage to 414 plant species across 94 families, underscoring the potential for elevated crop damage. This information is invaluable for developing targeted intervention strategies and mitigating economic losses caused by P. japonica infestations. Therefore, establishing and maintaining long-term programmes for monitoring P. japonica populations are essential for scientific understanding and practical pest management efforts in the Azores Archipelago.
The data presented here report the officials' records of a 16-year (from 2008 to 2023) long-term monitoring programme on P. japonica in the Azores Archipelago, undertaken by the Secretaria Regional da Agricultura e Alimentação operational services. Based on the last checklist of Azorean arthropods, the species is recorded for the first time for the Corvo, Graciosa and São Jorge Islands.
La condition corporelle de la noèse dans l’extrême-computationnel
Authors: Krzykawski Michał 
Published: December 2024

La question posée dans cet article est celle de savoir si l’organologie proposée par Bernard Stiegler permet de penser (et panser) le corps face aux nouvelles technologies qui nous transforment radicalement comme individus et sociétés. Compte tenu de cette transformation, l’article propose une analyse de deux types de rapports : entre le corps (notamment celui phénoménologique) et la noèse d’une part et entre le corps et la technologie (notamment celle numérique) d’autre part, et cela à travers une relecture du texte de Jean-François Lyotard « Si l’on peut penser sans corps ». Cette relecture a pour objectif de montrer que la « dénoétisation » telle que l’a caractérisée Stiegler va de pair avec une désincarnation, à la fois comme phénomène culturel du numérique et comme le prolongement du geste fondateur de la métaphysique occidentale, séparant l’esprit de son support matériel qu’est le corps.
L’oubli d’Icare. L’autre idiot
Authors: Duhem Ludovic 
Published: December 2024

Cet article propose une étude de l’oubli d’Icare, cette figure de l’« idiotie », dans l’œuvre de Bernard Stiegler. Il s’agit moins de marquer un manque, que de penser ce « défaut » en regard de la figure centrale du « défaut qu’il faut », à savoir celle d’Épiméthée. L’hypothèse défendue ici est qu’un tel défaut de la figure d’Icare-Dédale révèle non seulement la nature « quasi transcendantale » de Prométhée-Épiméthée, mais elle montre aussi ce qui reste encore dans l’ombre quant à la question de l’oubli, de l’idiotie et de la technique. C’est à travers une lecture du mythe d’Icare, rendue possible par l’analyse stieglerienne du mythe de Prométhée, qu’un tel défaut devient constructif d’un prolongement à travers les enjeux écologiques, épistémologiques et politiques de la localité. La complémentarité entre le mythe de Prométhée et le mythe d’Icare ouvre enfin une réflexion sur une « mésopolitique des technologies » pour répondre à la situation critique de l’Anthropocène/Entropocène.

Authors: Ahmad Eman Y. , El-Deen Al-Darwish Abd El-Aziz G. , Fouad Mahmoud M. 
Published: December 2024

Background and aim
Preterm birth can happen as a consequence of unprompted preterm labor, involving the preterm premature ruptures of membranes, or medical treatments, like labor inductions or elective cesarean, which are initiated to decrease meager outcome accompanied with definite motherly or fetal condition.
The evaluation of the maturity of fetal lungs is suitable for defining the timing of birth in complicated pregnancy cases such as a history of blood loss, placenta previa, a history of a preceding classical cesarean birth, and a history of preceding uterine operation.
This work aimed to evaluate the effect of antenatal corticosteroid administration from the 34th week till the 37th week of gestation on neonatal outcome in cases at elevated risk of preterm labor.

Patients and methods
A case–control investigation was carried out in Al-Azhar University Hospitals in Assiut and Qena General Hospital including 500 pregnant women in their 34th to 36th week of gestation at elevated risks of preterm labor. The cases were allocated into two similar groups. The period of the work ranged from 6 to 12 months.

Results
There is a significant difference between the study groups regarding APGAR scoring at delivery and at 5 min, lamellar body count, and neonatal intensive care unit admission. There is no significant difference regarding weight of baby and time of termination. There is a significant difference between the studied groups regarding preterm labor and sex of the baby. There was a highly significant difference between the studied groups regarding neonatal intensive care unit admission. However, there was a significant difference between the studied groups regarding preterm labor.

Conclusion
Steroids have a significant benefit on fetal well-being even if used after 34 weeks of pregnancy. Steroids were given prophylactically to those who are recognized to have elevated risk of preterm labor.

Authors: Verma Vandana , Bhargawa Vinant , Bengani Vasundhara , Sharma Shweta , Rehan Rabiya 
Published: December 2024

Background:
Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) undergoing maintenance haemodialysis (MHD) face considerable nutritional challenges, exacerbate disease progression and affect their quality of life. This study evaluated the role of dietary counselling and routine nutritional assessment in improving the nutritional and biochemical profiles of patients with MHD at Sir Ganga Ram Hospital.

Aim:
To evaluate the role of dietary counselling and routine nutritional assessment in improving nutritional status and biochemical profiles of patients with maintenance haemodialysis (MHD).

Material and Methods:
In this retrospective study conducted from April 2021 to March 2022, data were retrieved from the hospital information system of 135 patients with end-stage renal disease who had undergone MHD three times a week. Of these, 100 fulfilled the pre-planned study criteria. A modified 9-point Subjective Global Assessment Performa was used to assess health and nutritional status and stratify patients at moderate, mild or no nutritional risk. Dietary assessments were collected using 24-h recall and food diary records. The key outcomes measured were calorie and protein intake changes, serum albumin and cholesterol levels.

Results:
The findings revealed significant improvements in nutritional intake, with mean calorie and protein intake rising notably post-counselling (211 kcal and 10.18 g at the first session; 336 kcal and 15.28 g at the second). Mean serum albumin increased by +0.19 g/dL (P < 0.05), and cholesterol levels decreased by −6 mg/dL (P < 0.05), highlighting the effectiveness of dietary interventions.

Conclusion:
Structured dietary counselling significantly enhances the nutritional outcomes of dialysis patients. This study underscores the importance of integrating personalised nutrition into CKD management to improve health outcomes.
Theoretical perspectives of trait anxiety: A systematic review
Authors: Bijulakshmi P. , Kumar V. Veera Balaji 
Published: December 2024

Background:
Anxiety has been extensively studied since the Freudian era as an essential factor in the development of psychopathology. This study explored theoretical models of trait anxiety, a concept introduced by Spielberger in 1983, distinguishing between trait and state anxiety. Trait anxiety reflects a predisposition to anxiety, whereas state anxiety is a reaction to stressors.

Aim:
This study aimed to review the existing literature on the theoretical models of trait anxiety.

Materials and Methods:
‘Theoretical models of trait anxiety’ were typed using Google and PubMed to retrieve articles. The inclusion criteria included full-length articles and observational and interventional studies that explored theoretical models. The exclusion criteria included studies unrelated to theoretical models or lacking implications. Studies with no impact on the theoretical models were excluded.

Results:
Of the 174 initially selected articles, 71 met the inclusion criteria. The sample was divided into two groups: Group A, which explained various trait anxiety theories (17 articles), and Group B, which evaluated these concepts (54 articles). The studies span the period 1984–2023. Group A emphasised the multi-directional model, highlighting the interplay of genetic, cognitive, physiological and behavioural factors in trait anxiety development. Group B findings suggest that while genetics contributes to high trait anxiety propensity, its manifestations are primarily behavioural, especially under high state anxiety. Cognitive processes, such as attentional biases and specific brain area stimulation, intensify reactions in individuals with high-trait anxiety during low-state anxiety situations.

Conclusions:
In conclusion, this systematic review indicates widespread acceptance of the four-factor theory in trait anxiety models. Both observational and interventional studies support the significant role of physiological and cognitive processes in the development of trait anxiety.
Assessment of Stroke Severity And Mortality (ASSAM): A hospital-based study from north-east India
Authors: Carvalho Glennys , Goswami Debabrata , Ahmed Abdul Barik 
Published: December 2024

Background:
Stroke burden continues to grow; ischemic subtypes share the biggest pie. Assam is one of the states with the highest burden in-terms of mortality.

Aim:
In Assam, we studied factors operating at different timelines concerning stroke events in 119 stroke patients to identify entry points for policy-level interventions.

Material and Methods:
We used the National Institute of Health Stroke Score (NIHSS) at admission to assess stroke severity and the Modified Rankin Scale and Barthel Index of activities of daily living at discharge and day 30 after onset to study the functional outcomes. Mortality data were captured until day 30 of stroke onset, and epidemiological data on risk factors and other determinants was collected using a questionnaire.

Results:
In our study, the majority (55.5%) of patients admitted with stroke were in the age group of 51–70 years, while 9.2% were below 40 years. Only 2.5% of cases reached the hospital within 4.5 h; about 42% had multimorbidity. Hypertension was a major risk factor along with dyslipidemia. Nearly 18% had wake-up strokes, and a similar proportion had a cerebrovascular event in the past. Those with higher NIHSS scores had a higher risk of dying, and if they survived, they had a higher risk of poor functional outcomes at day 30. Women experienced a higher proportion of mortality than men and more so during the posthospitalization period.

Conclusion:
The epidemiological data obtained from this study helps provide insights into some of the determinants in the pre- and post-period of the stroke event, especially in resource-limited areas; as a part of ongoing surveillance, such data can help monitor temporal trends.
Knowledge among medical students about the usage of menstrual cup in a medical college in Central Karnataka
Authors: Ramanna Pavithra 
Published: December 2024

Introduction:
Menstruation is the normal process that millions of girls and women around the world undergo every month. Good hygienic practices during menstruation prevent infections and odors during the menstrual period. Menstrual cups are safe and there are no health risks found due to their usage. The aim of the study was to determine the knowledge on the usage of menstrual cup among medical students.

Material and Methods:
The cross-sectional study was conducted among all female medical students in Basaveshwara Medical College and Hospital, Chitradurga belonging to the age group of 18–25 years. All medical graduate girl students were given a questionnaire. About 255 students participated in the study and final data were analyzed into numbers and percentages.

Results:
Among the study participants, 45 (17.6%) of them had no idea about the menstrual cup. Most of the students did not have a clear knowledge on the material used in manufacturing of menstrual cup, time to empty the cup, and the method of its sterilization. Only 4 (1.6%) of them used a menstrual cup.

Conclusion:
Menstrual cups have many advantages like being nontoxic, eco-friendly and cost effective but their usage is uncommon in India as there is lack of knowledge, awareness and the widespread use of sanitary pads. Education and sensitization regarding the usage of menstrual cup is required among the population. There is lack of knowledge and misconception regarding the menstrual cup which should be addressed for better menstrual health and practice.

The disability was majorly seen in the lower limb (61.6%), which caused hinderance in walking in majority of the participants (90.1%). 57.6% reported that they had a good QOL, 67.8% were satisfied with their health and mean scores for physical and environmental domain were 68.05 and 50.85.

Conclusion:
Education, employment, and involvement of spine had a significant association with overall QOL. Disability had a profound effect on the QOL; environmental, social, and psychological were the most affected domains observed. Employment and education spinal involvement had a significant impact on QOL. Infective etiology was the most common cause of disability, while lower limb was the most affected body part.
The Effect of Exposure to Noise and Vibration and Ergonomic Factors on Sleep Quality and Musculoskeletal Disorders in Bus Drivers in Iran
Authors: Rahimimoghadam Somayeh , Khanjani Narges , Jalali Mahdi , Khorashadizadeh Fatemeh , Shahmohammadi Ayda 
Published: December 2024

Abstract

Aim:
City bus drivers are exposed to various harmful factors such as noise and vibration, which may cause adverse health effects. This study was conducted with the aim of investigating the impact of exposure to noise, vibration, and ergonomic factors on the quality of sleep and the prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) among city bus drivers in Neyshabur, Iran.

Methods:
Sixty-two city bus drivers from Neyshabur, Iran, participated in this study. Their level of exposure to noise was measured according to the ISO 5128:1980 standard, and the level of exposure to vibration was measured according to the ISO 2631 standard. Sleep quality (SQual) was evaluated with the Pittsburgh SQual Index, and the prevalence of MSDs was surveyed with the Nordic questionnaire. Data were analyzed with R version 4.3.2.

Results:
The average ± standard deviation (SD) exposure to noise was 83.25 ± 4.12 dB, and the average ± SD exposure to vibration was 0.14 ± 0.04 m/s2. The SQual of 46.77% of drivers was bad, and 69.35% of drivers suffered from MSDs in at least one of their body parts. The results of this study showed as drivers’ age increased, the chance of having good SQual decreased (odds ratio [OR]: 0.9, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.81–0.99). Sleep disorders were more common among drivers whose buses had spring seats (OR =3.17, 95% CI: 1.07–9.40).

Conclusion:
Almost half of the drivers had unfavorable SQual and suffered from MSDs. The type and quality of the seats, the age of the bus driver, and the bus type were among the most important factors affecting the quality of sleep and the presence of MSDs.
