Selection of the optimal formulation of the biopolymer system for the stimulation of productive formations
Authors: Rubel Viktoria , Slichenko Roman 
Published: November 2024

The object of study in this paper is the biopolymer system «X» – a complex composition that includes a biopolymer, salts and a thermal stabiliser intended for use in drilling fluids at high temperatures. The components of the formulation include complex reagent «X» for regulating structural, mechanical, rheological and filtration properties, as well as inhibitors (sodium and potassium chloride) and filler. Components of the biopolymer system (sodium chloride, organo-mineral colmatant thermal stabiliser) increase its thermal stability. One of the most problematic areas is the mechanism of sodium chloride's thermal stabilising effect. It is associated with an increase in the overall mineralisation of the drilling mud, which leads to a certain conformation of biopolymer molecules, accelerates gelation processes and counteracts the temperature dilution of the system.
The results obtained can be explained as follows:
– an increase in the concentration of sodium chloride leads to an increase in the ionic strength of the solution, which contributes to a change in the conformation of biopolymer molecules, enhancing intermolecular interactions and, as a result, increasing the viscosity and stability of the system;
– the organo-mineral colmatant heat stabiliser promotes the formation of a filtration crust on the well walls, which prevents fluid loss and reduces rock permeability;
– all components of the system interact with each other, affecting the properties of the solution. The optimum ratio of components allows achieving the required rheological characteristics and ensuring the stability of the system at high temperatures.
As a result of processing the information on technologies for tapping productive horizons, the disadvantages and advantages of each of them were noted. The existing drilling fluid systems used to tap productive horizons at high temperatures were considered. However, more attention was paid to the selection of a new optimal formulation of the biopolymer system, in accordance with the specified rheological and structural and mechanical properties for further implementation in practice. This ensures the possibility of obtaining predictive parameters of the drilling mud.
The proposed system has a number of advantages over similar ones, namely:
– the system retains its properties at high temperatures;
– the system provides the required values of viscosity, filtration and static shear stress;
– due to the use of an optimal formulation, high efficiency is achieved at a relatively low cost.

Published: November 2024

» As healthcare systems shift to value-based models, patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are increasingly used to measure effectiveness, efficiency, and patient satisfaction.» PROMs provide valuable insights into treatment efficacy from the patient's perspective and are increasingly essential in value-based healthcare models.» A variety of both joint-specific PROMs (i.e., Hip dysfunction and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score for Joint Replacement [HOOS-JR]/Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score for Joint Replacement [KOOS-JR]) and general PROMs (i.e., Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System [PROMIS]) currently exist for utilization in TJA practices.» We recommend collection of the PROMIS score, the HOOS-JR/KOOS-JR, and either the University of California Los Angeles activity score or Forgotten Joint Score within 3 months preoperatively and at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months postoperatively, with final collection between 10 and 14 months.» Continued integration of PROM research and practice will enable orthopaedic surgeons to further improve patient outcomes and overall care in TJA.

Abstract
Accretion of island arc terranes is a fundamental process of crustal growth and the formation of new continents. Convergent margin tectonics, both compressional and extensional, in accretionary orogens also control the origin and distribution of their contained mineral resources, including many of the world’s important Cu and Au deposits. However, the details of crustal growth and accretion are often lost because of deformation and selective preservation during subduction. The Melanesian Borderland, which includes the offshore regions of eastern Papua New Guinea and the Solomon Islands, contains several active and relict arc and backarc systems that have formed in response to more than 50 Ma of subduction and complex plate tectonic adjustments. The composite terrane is a region of some of the fastest growing crust on Earth and also spectacular mineral endowment, including three of the top ten porphyry Cu and epithermal Au deposits in the world. However, more than 80% of the belt is submerged, and so little is known about its geological evolution and makeup. Here, we present the first detailed geological map of the region in one map sheet, including the marginal deep ocean basins. The map identifies and groups the key lithostratigraphic formations and correlates associated tectonic events across the belt. The final compilation is presented at 1:1,000,000 scale, which is sufficient to allow quantitative analysis of crustal growth and accretion during ocean–continent collision throughout the region. The map shows the diversity of assemblages in accreting terranes that may eventually become part of a growing continent and highlights their complex formation and structural relationships. Because so much of that history has occurred offshore, the new map presents the first complete picture of the geology of the region in the critical period leading up to its eventual incorporation in the Australian continent.

Abstract
Yeongil bay is a basin located in Pohang, South Korea. Numerous projects and researches have been conducted for carbon capture and storage in Yeongil bay. The objectives of most of studies were shifted from enhancing injection efficiency to ensuring safety of carbon dioxide (CO2) storage after the Pohang earthquake occurrence in 2017. In this research, we present a stepwise CO2 injection scenario, which gradually increases injection rate during early stage of CO2 injection period. Furthermore, we conduct sensitivity analyses on an optimal stepwise CO2 injection scenario, based on the variations of permeability, well skin factor, and boundary condition between the storage site and aquifer. In conclusion, we can reduce the duration of CO2 injection compared to other injection scenarios which have suggested by previous studies with the same safety conditions and total amount of CO2 injected.

Seismic data are essential for analyzing and characterizing reservoir distributions in oil and gas exploration. While many advances have been made to obtain accurate seismic data, conventional methods still have limitations. The main limitations include the inability to use the full wavefield and the time-consuming sequential process of preprocessing, velocity model building, and migration. These challenges have highlighted the need for more efficient and accurate data processing. Full-waveform inversion (FWI) and FWI imaging have been developed to address these drawbacks. FWI uses the full wavefield, including diving and multi-scattered waves, to predict subsurface properties. It uses an optimization that iteratively updates the model to minimize the residual between the observed and the modeled data. Moreover, FWI imaging derives seismic images in a short time by taking the directional derivative of the FWI results. Compared with conventional methods, FWI imaging, since it is based on FWI, improves the signal-to-noise ratio and mitigates migration artifacts. In this study, a case study was conducted using 3D streamer data from a deepwater gas field to demonstrate the effectiveness of FWI imaging. As the gas field contains shallow gas, conventional methods have limitations in restoring subgas zones. To overcome this, FWI imaging was introduced, and to verify its effectiveness, reverse time migration (RTM) was used for comparison. After updating the velocity model with FWI up to 25 Hz, FWI imaging and RTM were applied using the same velocity model. Compared with RTM, FWI imaging exhibited significant improvements in resolution and structural detail at various depths. Additionally, it improved lateral resolution and structural continuity and effectively suppressed noise. Furthermore, FWI imaging significantly reduces processing time by eliminating the need for preprocessing and migration. These findings suggest that FWI imaging is a promising alternative to conventional methods by providing high-quality subsurface information while reducing the processing time.
Information retrieval in P2P systems

Abstract

In peer-to-peer ({\itshape P2P}) data sharing communities, Top-k queries have two main advantages. The first one is that they allow users to select information based on their preferences. Secondly, they avoid overwhelm participants with a large number of responses. In this paper, we introduced a new solution for the processing of Top-k queries in hybrid {\itshape P2P} systems. These systems consist of two levels. The low levelis composed of sets of peers called clusters, the top level consists of a set of Ultra peers. Each cluster is managed and controlled by an Ultra peer. The proposed algorithm named {\itshape One Threshold P2P (OT-P2P)} allows the resolution of ranking queries where the classification is done on objects based ontheir values using a monotonic function \(f\). We developed an application in order to compare several algorithms studied in this field with our approach. The comparison was made on the execution time, the number of operations performed and on the number of objects handled, using two types of data : uniform and non-uniform data.
The role of breastfeeding, antibiotics and antimalarial medicinal exposure in paediatric depression amongst infants and children aged under 5: A population-based study
Authors: Umeh Kanayo , Adaji S 
Published: November 2024

Abstract

Background
Although paediatric depression is a recognised problem worldwide, there is limited data on its prevalence in children aged under 5 years, and the role of breastfeeding and medicinal exposure. This study examined whether lack of breastfeeding, and exposure to antimalarial and antibiotic medicines, contribute to depression in Nigerian children aged under 5.
Methods
The study examined data from 31,103 children (mean age, 2.11 years (SD, 1.421)), collected during the 6th round of the MICS (Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys), completed in 2021. A series of binary logistic regression models were used to analyse the data.
Results
Children exposed to antimalarial medicines, specifically ACT (AOR = 1.760, 95%CI [1.316–2.355]), and artesunate injections (AOR = 1.757, 95%CI [1.150–2.684]), and those who were not breastfed (AOR = 0.776, 95%CI [0.625–0.963]), had greater odds of depression, after adjusting for potential confounders. The association between ACT medication use and depression was salient in male children (AOR = 2.347, 95%CI [1.547–3.559]), whereas the relationship between breastfeeding and depression was primarily observed in female children (AOR = 0.689, 95%CI [0.498–0.951]). Robustness checks including variations in managing missing data, breastfeeding measurement, and analysis across subgroups for multiple covariates (e.g., geographical area, mothers’ education, wealth index, medical symptoms), highlighted the importance of contextual factors.
Conclusions
This is the first population-based study to examine the role of breastfeeding and medicinal use, in suspected depression amongst children aged under 5, from sub-Sharan Africa. Overall, exposure to antimalaria treatment, particularly ACT, and inadequate breastfeeding may help identify infants and young children susceptible to paediatric depression.

Effects of continuous positive airway pressure treatment on arterial stiffness and inflammatory factors in patients with coronary heart disease complicated with obstructive sleep apnea
Authors: Wang Liang , Wang Yuanqi , Jiao Tiantian , Xu Linghao , Ji Endong , Tapu Sakibur Rahman , Liu Yehong , Li Jiming 
Published: November 2024

Abstract

Background
Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) treatment brings more benefits than risks to most coronary heart disease (CHD) patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). However, the pathophysiological mechanism by which CPAP treatment improves the prognosis of patients with CHD and OSA remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to clarify whether CPAP can improve arterial stiffness and inflammatory factor levels in CHD patients with OSA, and to further improve prognosis.
Method
59 patients with coronary heart disease complicated by moderate to severe sleep apnea were divided into a CPAP treatment group (CPAP + coronary heart disease standard treatment) and a control group (only coronary heart disease standard treatment). Peripheral blood test reports were collected and pulse wave velocity (PWV) measurements were performed for each patient at the beginning, 3 months, and 6 months of treatment.
Results
After 6 months of treatment, the CPAP group showed more significant improvement in the levels of inflammatory factors such as white blood cell (WBC), neutrophil (N), C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), procalcitonin (PCT), and PWV than the control group.
Conclusion
After active treatment with CPAP, arterial stiffness and inflammatory cytokine levels in patients with coronary heart disease and OSA improved. This association should be given more attention in clinical practice, and sleep apnea should be actively treated. The early initiation of CPAP treatment can improve patient prognosis.
Quantum chemical studies of carbon-based graphene-like nanostructures: from benzene to coronene
Authors: Vanny Alberto Soares , Gonçalves Arlan da Silva 
Published: November 2024

Abstract

This study presents a comprehensive quantum chemical analysis of 14 distinct carbon-based nanostructures (CBNs), ranging from simple molecules, like benzene, to more complex structures, such as coronene, which serves as an exemplary graphene-like model. The investigation focuses on elucidating the relationships between molecular orbital (MO) energies, the energy gaps between these orbitals, electron occupation numbers (eON), electronic conduction, and the topology of these compounds, seeking to find the one that approaches most of a graphene-like structure for in silico studies. Through detailed examination of molecular properties including chemical hardness and chemical potential, we demonstrate that the electronic exchange between orbitals is directly influenced by the structural topology of the CBNs, as the eON and the MO energies. A RAMAN theoretical analyses was performed to all models, ensuring the approximation to a graphene structure by its experimental fingerprint comparison. Notably, the correlations presented here offers a foundational approach for anticipating electronic conductivity in graphene-like materials, as well as the confirmation of the use of a coronene model as a graphene nanostructure for theoretical analyses. A more symmetric and linear structure, with coronene being highlighted, shows a pronounced predictive capability for electronic conduction.

Published: November 2024

Abstract

Obstructive hydronephrosis is caused by various factors such as chronic inflammation and tumors. Eosinophils and chitinase-like proteins (CLPs) are involved in the pathogenesis of hydronephrosis in mice; however, the specific mechanisms remain unknown. In this study, we morphologically analyzed a novel mouse model of obstructive hydronephrosis from onset to progression to clarify the effects of eosinophils and CLP on the development of hydronephrosis and tumorigenesis. The primary change was slight eosinophil infiltration of the ureteropelvic junction, even at 1 week of age, followed by a significant increase in CLP expression in the urothelium at 5 weeks of age, which led to proliferation of the urothelium. At 8 weeks of age, polyps with eosinophilic inflammation and urothelial hyperplasia expressing high levels of CLP formed at the ureteropelvic junction, leading to hydronephrosis. At 60 weeks of age, all mice with hydronephrosis exhibited chronic eosinophilic inflammation and adenomas that progressed to adenocarcinomas with high CLP expression. In summary, inflammation and epithelial proliferation at the ureteropelvic junction began with a single infiltration of eosinophils at the juvenile stage in mice. Eosinophilic inflammation is associated with the development of hydronephrosis and urothelial hyperplasia, which may progress to cancer due to increased CLP expression.
A Survey on Mental Health among Resident Physicians: Psychological Resilience as a Mediator
Authors: He Yunjuan , Lin Shengnan , Wang Yixuan , Zhang Bo , Wang Yifan , Sheng Shouqin , Gu Xinlong , Wang Wenyan 
Published: November 2024

Abstract

Background: Due to night shifts, the issue of sleep disturbances (SD) among resident physicians often draws attention. Prior research has validated psychological resilience (PR) as a valuable concept that enables individuals to reduce suicidal ideation (SI) and achieve an appropriate mental state. However, the underlying mediating mechanisms of PR in adapting to mental health under SD remain inadequately understood. Therefore, we examined the mediating role of PR in the relationship between SD, SI, and life satisfaction (LS) among resident physicians.
Methods: An anonymous four-part survey was conducted with 453 resident physicians training in public hospitals in Anhui Province, China. Descriptive statistics and correlation analyses were performed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences software (version 27.0). The study employed structural equation modeling to examine the interplay of variables and conducted a multiple-group analysis using Analysis of Moment Structure (version 23.0).
Results: Based on a hypothetical model, the total effect value of SD on SI was 0.357 (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.264, 0.443; p< 0.01) with a significant direct value of 0.186 (95% CI: 0.067, 0.299; p< 0.01), accounting for 52.10%; the indirect value of SD on SI through PR was 0.171 (95% CI: 0.091, 0.266; p < 0.01), accounting for 47.90% of the total effect. In contrast, the total effect value of SD on LS was –0.638 (95% CI: –0.725, –0539; p < 0.01), with a significant direct value of –0.504 (95% CI: –0.644, –0.354; p < 0.01), accounting for 79.00%, the indirect value of SD on LS though PR was –0.134 (95% CI: –0.218, –0.054; p< 0.01), accounting for 21.00% of the total effect. The multiple-group analysis further revealed that individuals over 25 years exercise more PR to enhance LS (t = 2.703, p < 0.01), and those with normal weight were less affected by SD in terms of LS (t = –2.322, p = 0.02).
Conclusions: The participation of policymakers and healthcare institutions is key to formulating new guidelines. Developing specific measures that promote a healthy lifestyle, establishing supportive working environments for resident physicians, and adopting comprehensive strategies tailored to the needs of younger and overweight resident physicians can enhance the quality of healthcare and improve their overall well-being.
