AbstractThe detection of human diseases is a major application for biosensors. During this work, a 2D photonic crystal fibre (PCF) biosensor design for dengue virus detection has been suggested. This work presents the decagonal hollow core PCF‐based dengue virus bio‐sensor and quantitatively investigates it over the terahertz regime. The suggested biosensor's performance is assessed using COMSOL Multiphysics, a professional tool that uses the Finite Element Method. The simulation's outcomes show that the suggested sensor performed better than earlier research, with a high sensitivity of 98.79%, 97.96%, 97.71%, 98.58%, 96.99% and 97.47% with more less confinement loss 1.2766 × 10−12 dB/m, 1.6385 × 10−12 dB/m, 2.8015 × 10−13 dB/m, 1.1798 × 10−13 dB/m, 7.0336 × 10−12 dB/m and 0.00 dB/m respectively for infected Haemoglobin (Hgb), Normal Haemoglobin (Hgb), Infected Platelets (Plt), Normal Platelets (Plt), Infected Plasma (Psm) and Normal Plasma (Psm) at 3.0 THz using the ideal geometric configuration. Very soon, its remarkable sensitivity and guiding capabilities will be crucial to dengue virus detection technology.
Power consumption state evaluation of important power customers based on AHP‐TOPSIS algorithm
Authors: Zhang Xixiang , Meng Qi , Yang Jun 
Published: October 2024

AbstractIn the construction of a new power system, the identification and evaluation of power consumption status of power customers will become an important basis for them to participate in the emerging businesses such as demand response and virtual power plants. In order to ensure the power safety of important power customers, a new evaluation of power consumption status of important power customers based on the AHP (analytic hierarchy process)‐TOPSIS (technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution) algorithm is proposed by fully mining and applying the power big data. Firstly, a power consumption big data analysis platform based on the Hadoop architecture is built to provide a high‐performance platform support for big data analysis. Secondly, nine evaluation indexes are constructed from the three dimensions of voltage, load and synthesis, which objectively and scientifically describes the power consumption status of important power customers. Finally, the AHP‐TOPSIS algorithm is used to evaluate and analyse the voltage, load and comprehensive indicators respectively, thus, obtaining the evaluation values of three kinds of indicators. The power consumption status scores of important power customers are determined by the variable weight weighted summation. The rationality and feasibility of the method and algorithm are proved by example analysis and field verification. This method helps to promote the transformation from post fault emergency repair to warning beforehand. It has the multiple effects of ensuring safe power consumption, supporting accurate patrolling and active emergency repair serving.

Context. The Gaia-ESO survey (GES) is a large public spectroscopic survey that acquired spectra for more than 100 000 stars across all major components of the Milky Way. In addition to atmospheric parameters and stellar abundances that have been derived in previous papers of this series, the GES spectra allow us to detect spectroscopic binaries with one (SB1), two (SB2), or more (SBn ≥ 3) components.
Aims. The present paper discusses the statistics of GES SBn ≥ 2 after analysing 160 727 GIRAFFE HR10 and HR21 spectra, amounting to 37 565 unique Milky Way field targets.
Methods. Cross-correlation functions (CCFs) have been re-computed thanks to a dozen spectral masks probing a range of effective temperatures (3900 K < Teff < 8000 K), surface gravities (1.0 < log g < 4.7), and metallicities (−2.6 < [Fe/H] < 0.3). By optimising the mask choice for a given spectrum, the newly computed, so-called NACRE (NArrow CRoss-correlation Experiment) CCFs are narrower and allow more stellar components to be unblended than standard masks. The DOE (Detection Of Extrema) extremum-finding code then selects the individual components and provides their radial velocities.
Results. From the sample of HR10 and HR21 spectra corresponding to 37 565 objects, the present study leads to the detection of 322 SB2, ten SB3 (three of them being tentative), and two tentative SB4. In particular, compared to our previous study, the NACRE CCFs allowed us to multiply the number of SB2 candidates by ≈1.5. The colour-magnitude diagram reveals, as expected, the shifted location of the SB2 main sequence. A comparison between the SB identified in Gaia DR3 and the ones detected in the present work was performed and the complementarity of the two censuses is discussed. An application to the mass-ratio determination is presented, and the mass-ratio distribution of the GES SB2 is discussed. When accounting for the SB2 detection rate, an SB2 frequency of ≈1.4 % is derived within the present stellar sample of mainly FGK-type stars.
Conclusions. As primary outliers identified within the GES data, SBn spectra produce a wealth of information and useful constraints for the binary population synthesis studies.
An interferometric search for SiO maser emission in planetary nebulae

Published: October 2024

Context. Maser emission of SiO, H2O, and OH is widespread in asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars with oxygen- (O-) rich envelopes. This emission quickly disappears during the post-AGB phase and is extremely rare in planetary nebulae (PNe). So far, only eight PNe have been confirmed to show OH and/or H2O maser emission, and none have ever been found to show SiO maser emission.
Aims. We intend to obtain the first detection of a SiO maser from a PN. Such a detection would provide us with a useful tool to probe mass loss in PNe at a scales of a few AU from the central star, much shorter than the scales traced by H2O or OH masers.
Methods. We compiled two different samples. The first one comprises all known PNe with confirmed OH and/or H2O maser emission, as well as two candidate PNe showing OH masers. For the second sample, we compiled single-dish SiO maser detections in the literature, and compared them with catalogs of PNe and radio continuum emission (which could trace photoionized gas in PNe). We identified five targets (either PN or radio continuum sources) within the beam of the single-dish SiO maser observations. We then carried out interferometric observations of both samples with the Australia Telescope Compact Array, to confirm the spatial association between continuum and SiO maser emission.
Results. We find no SiO maser emission associated with any confirmed or candidate PN. In all targets, except IRAS 17390–3014, there is no spatial coincidence between SiO masers and radio continuum emission. While in IRAS 17390–3014 we cannot completely rule out a possible association, it is unlikely that the radio continuum emission arises from a PN.
Conclusions. The absence of SiO maser emission in PNe showing OH or H2O masers is of special interest, since thermal SiO emission has been reported in at least one of these targets, indicating that SiO molecules can be present in the gas phase. Since some maser-emitting PNe show evidence of having O-rich outer envelopes, and carbon- (C-) rich central stars and inner envelopes, we speculate that SiO abundance could be very low in the central regions where physical conditions are optimal for maser pumping, and C-bearing molecules may be dominant in the gas phase at those locations.

Aims Patients presenting with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) are frequently treated with the P2Y12-inhibitor ticagrelor. Some patients prematurely discontinue ticagrelor, but the incidence of reasons for and clinical implications of treatment modification are relatively unknown.
Methods and Results Data from 4,278 ACS patients (mean age: 63.6 years, 26.1% women) who were discharged on ticagrelor and enrolled in the FORCE-ACS registry between 2015 and 2020 were used. Treatment modifications were categorized as physician-recommended discontinuation, alteration, interruption, or disruption and occurred in 26.7, 20.1, 2.8, and 3.1% of patients within 12 months of follow-up (Visual Summary). Underlying reasons for treatment modification differed per type of modification. Overall, the rate of ischemic events defined as all-cause death, myocardial infarction, or stroke was 6.6% at 12 months of follow-up. Cox regression analysis using time-updated modification variables as independent variables showed that treatment interruption (adjusted hazard ratio [HR]: 2.93, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.48–5.79, p < 0.01) and disruption (adjusted HR: 2.33, 95% CI: 1.07–5.07, p = 0.03) were associated with an increased risk of ischemic events even after adjustment for relevant confounders. Discontinuation and alteration were not associated with increased ischemic risk.
Conclusion In clinical practice, treatment modifications in ACS patients discharged on ticagrelor are common, although type and reasons for modification are heterogeneous. Treatment interruption and disruption are associated with excess cardiovascular risk.

Published: October 2024

AbstractTheaflavins (TFs) contribute greatly to the color and flavor of black tea, and have various bioactivities beneficial to human health. This research compared the activity for TF production from tea polyphenols of recombinant polyphenol oxidase (Malus domestica, GenBank login number LT718523.1, MdPPO2) with that of commercial polyphenol oxidase (Agaricus bisporus, AbPPO) in both free and immobilized forms. Enzyme assays by LC-MS revealed that the production of TFs by the commercial enzyme AbPPO was almost five times as high as that of free recombinant MdPPO2. When immobilized on mesoporous silica, however, the activity of recombinant MdPPO2 increased significantly, whereas AbPPO almost lost its activity. In terms of the relative enzyme activity, the immobilized recombinant MdPPO2 had the highest relative enzyme activity, which was more than six times higher than that of free AbPPO. Among the TFs that were produced, TF3 was the most abundant, followed by TF2a, TF1, and TF2b.

Abstract
Background Patients receive many different recommendations after thoracic aortic surgery. Unfortunately, there is much variation in recommendations between different surgical centers. This variation in recommendations creates uncertainty and anxiety in patients. Therefore, we aimed to provide an overview with clear lifestyle recommendations for patients before and after thoracic aortic surgery.
Methods Documentary research and a framework analysis were used to analyze brochures, website texts, and health care protocols. These documents consisted of lifestyle recommendations for patients before and after thoracic aortic surgery (direct information) or cardiac surgery (indirect information). An analytical framework was constructed and all lifestyle recommendations for patients before and after thoracic aortic surgery were coded through indexing, charting, and mapping by two researchers (N.K. and H.v.Z.). The first draft with lifestyle recommendations was prepared by two researchers (N.K. and H.v.Z.). Feedback from all authors involved patients and consulted health care professionals was processed in the final draft.
Results In total, 170 documents were analyzed. Indexing revealed 414 lifestyle recommendations, which were included in the first draft. Charting, mapping, removal of duplicates, and processing of feedback resulted in a final draft with 52 lifestyle recommendations about behavioral change, body weight, nutrition, cessation of alcohol and drug use, cessation of smoking, wound healing, sedentary behavior and physical activity, mental well-being, and family and close relatives.
Conclusion This study provides an overview of clear lifestyle recommendations for patients before and after thoracic aortic surgery. This overview is the first step because follow-up research is needed on which lifestyle recommendations are necessary and evidence-based. The overview of lifestyle recommendations serves as a foundation, after which individual customization can be provided.

Published: October 2024

AbstractAnesthetic management of a child with hemifacial microstomia and frontonasal encephalocele can be challenging due to factors such as a difficult airway, associated systemic conditions, young age, and prolonged operating time. Hereby, we outline the intraoperative management of a 3-year-old child undergoing repair of multiple defects requiring multidisciplinary involvement of neurosurgery, plastic surgery, and anesthesia team. In our case, a size 0 mask and hyper-angulated D-blade video laryngoscopy were used to prevent sac compression and facilitate intubation. Blood conservation strategies included tranexamic acid, precise fluid management, and maintenance of normothermia. Extubation was carefully planned, considering blood loss and airway edema, and performed when the child was fully awake, ensuring a stable postoperative period and successful recovery. This report emphasizes the importance of meticulous preoperative assessment, readiness for a challenging airway, efficient management of intraoperative blood loss, and the value of teamwork.

AbstractAnterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture is among the most studied sports injuries. We investigate the impact of ACL reconstruction (ACLR) on performance and longevity in La Liga to elucidate performance parameters impacted after surgery in professional soccer players and variables impacting return-to-play (RTP).Demographic and performance data for La Liga players with ACLR between 1993 and 2020 were collected three seasons before and after injury and compared with two healthy controls. Analysis was conducted between and within ACLR and control groups. Pearson's correlation coefficients and a multiple linear regression model analyzed relationships between demographic variables and RTP.After exclusion, 23 professional soccer players were identified for the ACLR group. One year after index, ACLR had lower goals, shots on-target, assists, pass percentage, tackles, tackle success percentage, blocks, and clearances compared with control (p < 0.05). Two years after index, ACLR had lower assists, pass percentage, and tackle success percentage than control (p < 0.05). Three years after index, ACLR had fewer matches and blocks versus control (p < 0.05). Pearson's correlation showed a positive correlation between experience and RTP (p = 0.001). Multiple linear regression found RTP to increase 32.66 days for each additional year of experience (p < 0.001).With performance metrics showing significant decreases up to 2 years post-ACLR but largely recovering within 3 years of RTP, results support that soccer players undergoing ACLR eventually recover to preinjury levels of play. Players should be counseled on initial declines in performance metrics the first few years after RTP.

Published: October 2024

Background Nonpalpable breast lesions pose a challenge in their early diagnosis. Image-guided biopsy is preferred in these cases so that a pathological diagnosis of breast carcinoma is reached timely for a better prognosis as the disease has an increased chance of successful outcome with early identification and treatment.
Objective The study aims at evaluating the role of stereotactic core needle biopsy (CNB) and percutaneous ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy (US-CNB) in diagnosing suspicious nonpalpable breast lesions.
Methods Our study included 35 patients with nonpalpable breast lesions and having a Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) risk assessment category IV or V on mammography or sonography. These 35 lesions were subjected to percutaneous image-guided (stereotactic or US) biopsy for histopathological analysis.
Results Out of a total of 35 cases, 17 were pathologically malignant (48.6%), with the most common subtype being invasive ductal carcinoma (82.3%). Twenty-nine cases underwent US-CNB, 16 (55.1%) of which were malignant and 13 (44.8%) were benign on histopathological evaluation (HPE). The remaining six cases, which on mammography showed no mass but suspicious malignant calcification only, were subjected to stereotactic CNB, out of which one (16.6%) was malignant and five (83.3%) were benign on HPE. Hence, the lesions visible on sonography were more likely to be malignant.
Conclusion Sonography and mammography play a complimentary role in detecting breast carcinoma. Percutaneous biopsy under image guidance can be used as an accurate diagnostic alternative to open surgical excisional biopsy to avoid diagnostic delay.
Machine learning-enhanced vision systems for cutting tool notch detection in new energy battery manufacturing

Abstract
This paper presents a study on the problem of burrs on the electrodes of new energy batteries, which are a major factor contributing to battery short-circuits and explosions. During the process of electrode cutting, the use of cutting tools with a notch is likely to cause burrs on the electrode. Therefore, it is essential to accurately detect the notch of the cutting tool. This paper explores the issue of cutting tool notch detection using machine learning-enhanced vision systems. Firstly, a set of cutting tool image acquisition devices is used to capture high-quality images of the cutting tool edge. Next, an algorithm for removing attachments based on concave point matching is proposed, effectively eliminating edge attachments by analyzing the concave point information of the edge. Additionally, we propose an enhanced Zernike moment sub-pixel edge extraction method, which achieves sub-pixel edge extraction while preserving the edge characteristics of the cutting tool. Furthermore, a notch detection algorithm based on quartic Hermite interpolation is introduced to detect the notch of the cutting tool by initially identifying the tool’s edge. The proposed algorithms are compared with other state-of-the-art methods, demonstrating faster and more accurate extraction of sub-pixel cutting tool edges and detection of cutting tool notches.
