Authors: Noorzai Marouf , Joya Shafiq Ahmad , Mohseni Rovaisa , Niazi Aziz-ur-Rahman 
Published: October 2024

Mental health issues are a major concern for public health worldwide, affecting a large segment of the global population. This study aims to investigate the association between physical activity, depression, and anxiety among students in the Faculty of Education at Herat University. A cross-sectional study was conducted during the fourth quarter of 2023 (October-December) encompassing a 204 sample of male students enrolled in the Faculty of Education at Herat University. We used a 13-item self-administered questionnaire to collect information on the participants’ sociodemographic details and physical activities. We assessed depression and anxiety using the standardized Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) and the Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-item (GAD-7) questionnaire, respectively. The data was scored and categorized according to the guidelines set for each instrument. Statistical analyses were performed in IBM SPSS Statistics (version 27). Of all participants in this study, 86.3% suffered from various degrees of depression and 71.6% suffered from various degrees of anxiety. A lack of a regular and organized weekly plan involving sports activities was associated with depression (p=0.009) and anxiety (p=0.024). Lack of regular weekly exercise in the past due to physical problems was associated only with anxiety (p=0.023). This study explored how physical activity relates to depression and anxiety in students at Herat University's Faculty of Education. We found that being physically active was linked to both lower depression and anxiety levels. The higher rates of depression and anxiety in our study might be due to social and environmental factors that the other studies didn't account for.

Published: October 2024

A Unidade de Terapia Intensiva é uma área restrita dentro do hospital aos pacientes que necessitam de cuidados intensivos e monitorização invasiva. O enfermeiro desta unidade é responsável por cuidar e avaliar constantemente o paciente. É de sua responsabilidade também o acolhimento ao paciente e familiares, para esclarecimento de dúvidas, bem como manter o elo entre paciente e familiar e, assim, minimizar a ansiedade destes. O objetivo desta pesquisa foi conhecer as percepções dos familiares quanto ao acolhimento realizado pelo (a) enfermeiro (a) em uma Unidade de Terapia Intensiva Adulto. O tipo de estudo foi descritivo, com abordagem qualitativa, realizado em um hospital público situado no norte de Santa Catarina, durante o ano de 2022. Foram realizadas nove entrevistas individuais e presenciais com os familiares de pacientes internados na Unidade de Terapia Intensiva Adulto que encerraram devido a saturação teórica dos dados. Foi utilizada Análise Temática para análise. Foram elencadas três categorias: orientação e acolhimento do familiar pelo (a) enfermeiro (a); sentimentos vivenciados pela família ao visitar o familiar na Unidade Terapia Intensiva e mudança do cotidiano ocasionada pela internação do mesmo na Unidade de Terapia Intensiva. Percebe-se que a internação em uma Unidade de Terapia Intensiva é um momento difícil não só para o paciente, mas também para a família ou pessoas próximas que a visitam. Diferentes sentimentos são despertados nas pessoas ao entrarem nesse ambiente. Dessa forma, torna-se essencial que o (a) enfermeiro (a) esteja habilitado (a) não só para o cuidado ao paciente, mas para com seu familiar. Esse (a) profissional tem como papel promover a inserção da família no processo de cuidado do paciente.

Toi qui pâlis au nom de Vancouver de Marcel Thiry : trop pâli pour être moderne ? trop dépoli pour ne pas l’être ?
Authors: Degott Bertrand 
Published: October 2024

Marcel Thiry (1897-1977) est un écrivain belge d’expression française. Dans son deuxième recueil, quoique inventives et variées, les formes poétiques restent traditionnelles, comme préservées par leur belgitude. Si l’on se rappelle un vers de Thiry, c’est assurément « Toi qui pâlis au nom de Vancouver », éponyme du recueil. Or, Vancouver ne figurant là que comme un « nom », il ne garantit aucune expérience du lieu. Relu à la lumière de l’oeuvre de Thiry et de ses réflexions grammairiennes, le recueil de 1924 permet d’interroger les mouvements qui agitent la tradition lyrique et métrique au début du xxe siècle.
PotatoG-DKB: a potato gene-disease knowledge base mined from biological literature
Authors: Xie Congjiao , Gao Jing , Chen Junjie , Zhao Xuyang 
Published: October 2024

Background
Potato is the fourth largest food crop in the world, but potato cultivation faces serious threats from various diseases and pests. Despite significant advancements in research on potato disease resistance, these findings are scattered across numerous publications. For researchers, obtaining relevant knowledge by reading and organizing a large body of literature is a time-consuming and labor-intensive process. Therefore, systematically extracting and organizing the relationships between potato genes and diseases from the literature to establish a potato gene-disease knowledge base is particularly important. Unfortunately, there is currently no such gene-disease knowledge base available.

Methods
In this study, we constructed a Potato Gene-Disease Knowledge Base (PotatoG-DKB) using natural language processing techniques and large language models. We used PubMed as the data source and obtained 2,906 article abstracts related to potato biology, extracted entities and relationships between potato genes and related disease, and stored them in a Neo4j database. Using web technology, we also constructed the Potato Gene-Disease Knowledge Portal (PotatoG-DKP), an interactive visualization platform.

Results
PotatoG-DKB encompasses 22 entity types (such as genes, diseases, species, etc.) of 5,206 nodes and 9,443 edges between entities (for example, gene-disease, pathogen-disease, etc.). PotatoG-DKP can intuitively display associative relationships extracted from literature and is a powerful assistant for potato biologists and breeders to understand potato pathogenesis and disease resistance.

Published: October 2024

In the realm of maxillofacial medicine, osteomyelitis, a disorder marked by inflammation of the bone and bone marrow, presents serious challenges. Even though the medical community is aware of this disorder, it is relatively prevalent, especially in developing nations like India, to occur in the maxillofacial skeleton, primarily the mandible. Since the maxilla has a large collateral blood flow, thin cortical bones, and strutted bone marrow that reduces infection risk, it tends to occur more frequently in the mandible, than the maxilla. Owing to the rarity of maxillary osteomyelitis, a thorough study into the illness's potential underlying causes is necessary for a definite diagnosis. A severe infection usually requires an immunocompromised state, even in those impacted by these potential causes. Antimicrobial therapy and debridement, along with the management of ensuing dead space and bone stability, are among the susceptibilities and treatments. Here, we describe a rare instance of maxillary osteomyelitis in an older patient with a weakened immune system, highlighting our approach.
Using MODIS cloud regimes to sort diagnostic signals of aerosol‐cloud‐precipitation interactions
Authors: Oreopoulos Lazaros , Cho Nayeong , Lee Dongmin 
Published: April 2017

AbstractCoincident multiyear measurements of aerosol, cloud, precipitation, and radiation at near‐global scales are analyzed to diagnose their apparent relationships as suggestive of interactions previously proposed based on theoretical, observational, and model constructs. Specifically, we examine whether differences in aerosol loading in separate observations go along with consistently different precipitation, cloud properties, and cloud radiative effects. Our analysis uses a cloud regime (CR) framework to dissect and sort the results. The CRs come from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) sensor and are defined as distinct groups of cloud systems with similar covariations of cloud top pressure and cloud optical thickness. Aerosol optical depth used as proxy for aerosol loading comes from two sources, MODIS observations and the MERRA‐2 reanalysis, and its variability is defined with respect to local seasonal climatologies. The choice of aerosol data set impacts our results substantially. We also find that the responses of the marine and continental component of a CR are frequently quite disparate. Overall, CRs dominated by warm clouds tend to exhibit less ambiguous signals but also have more uncertainty with regard to precipitation changes. Finally, we find weak, but occasionally systematic covariations of select meteorological indicators and aerosol, which serve as a sober reminder that ascribing changes in cloud and cloud‐affected variables solely to aerosol variations is precarious.

Published: April 2017

AbstractA new zwitterion generated from different electron‐deficient alkenes and phosphines has been designed and its reactivity was explored. We demonstrated that this new zwitterion directed a novel [2+1+2] cycloaddition reaction between vinylpyridines and isatin‐derived electron‐deficient alkenes, affording spirocyclopenteneoxindole derivatives containing three stereocenters in moderate to good yields with good diastereoselectivities. A plausible mechanism has been proposed relying on preliminary mechanistic investigations and supported by theoretical calculations.magnified image

Published: April 2017

ABSTRACTMeta‐pentadecenyl phenol, a nonisoprenoid phenolic lipid, is a renewable agricultural resource and also a byproduct of the cashew industry; it is popularly known as cardanol. This study throws light on the grafting of cardanol, which has been established as a multifunctional additive for natural rubber, onto the main‐chain backbone of styrene–butadiene rubber (SBR), a synthetic polymer used to imbibe the multifunctional properties of the former, such as those of a plasticizer, curing promoter, process aid, and antioxidant, into the latter. The grafting was carried out in the solution stage on a trial basis with a peroxide catalyst, and all of the grafting parameters were optimized with a Taguchi methodology. The grafting of cardanol onto the SBR backbone was successfully confirmed by UV–visible spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and NMR analysis. Thermal analysis of the cardanol‐grafted styrene–butadiene rubber (C‐g‐SBR) revealed a higher thermal stability and better plasticizing effect than that those found in the virgin SBR. The rheological properties of the grafted rubber indicated the improvement of the pseudo‐plastic (shear‐thinning) nature compared to that in gum SBR. The unfilled C‐g‐SBR vulcanizates exhibited physicomechanical properties comparable to 5‐phr processing‐oil‐containing SBR [oil‐plasticized styrene–butadiene rubber (OPSBR)] vulcanizates. The carbon‐black‐filled C‐g‐SBR vulcanizates exhibited improved plasticization, a faster curing rate, easy processability, and better physicomechanical properties compared to the 5‐phr OPSBR vulcanizates. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Authors: Drupitha M. P. , Naskar Kinsuk , Nando Golok B. 
Published: April 2017

ABSTRACTThe present work describes the influence of processing route on thermomechanical properties of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) compatibilized blends. In this study, compatibilized blends of TPU and PDMS prepared by melt mixing and solution mixing techniques were compared. Ethylene methyl acrylate at different doses of 1, 2, 3, and 4 phr was used as the compatibilizer in 90:10, 80:20, and 70:30 blend ratios of TPU and PDMS. Optimum percentage of compatibilizer was same in both the methods and which was increased with the percentage of PDMS. As compared to melt mixed blends, solution mixed blends showed improved mechanical properties. From the dynamical mechanical analysis it was observed that the glass transition temperature (Tg) obtained was higher for the solution mixed blends due to the stiffer chains. The enhanced physicomechanical properties of the solution mixed blends were attributed to the improved thermal stability of the blends. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym.

Published: April 2017

AbstractThe hydrogen desorption pathways and storage properties of 2 Mg(NH2)2–3 LiH–xLiBH4 samples (x=0, 1, 2, and 4) were investigated systematically by a combination of pressure composition isotherm (PCI), differential scanning calorimetric (DSC), and volumetric release methods. Experimental results showed that the desorption peak temperatures of 2 Mg(NH2)2–3 LiH–xLiBH4 samples were approximately 10–15 °C lower than that of 2 Mg(NH2)2–3 LiH. The 2 Mg(NH2)2–3 LiH–4 LiBH4 composite in particular began to release hydrogen at 90 °C, thereby exhibiting superior dehydrogenation performance. All of the LiBH4‐doped samples could be fully dehydrogenated and re‐hydrogenated at a temperature of 143 °C. The high hydrogen pressure region (above 50 bar) of PCI curves for the LiBH4‐doped samples rose as the amount of LiBH4 increased. LiBH4 changed the desorption pathway of the 2 Mg(NH2)2–3 LiH sample under a hydrogen pressure of 50 bar, thereby resulting in the formation of MgNH and molten [LiNH2–2 LiBH4]. That is different from the dehydrogenation pathway of 2 Mg(NH2)2–3 LiH sample without LiBH4, which formed Li2Mg2N3H3 and LiNH2, as reported previously. In addition, the results of DSC analyses showed that the doped samples exhibited two independent endothermic events, which might be related to two different desorption pathways.

Published: April 2017

AbstractThree kinds of nonconjugated rigid perylene bisimide (PBI) derivatives based on a triptycene core were designed, synthesized and characterized. The unique three‐dimensional (3D) conformation of triptycene could enable formation of polymer with the favorable morphology for organic polymer solar cells (PSCs) by relieving the self‐aggregation of rigid PBI units. The low‐lying LUMO energy levels of these compounds demonstrated that they are very suitable for use as acceptors in organic solar cells. A higher power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 6.15 % was obtained for the blend film using the compound with two PBI units (T‐2) as the acceptor and commercial poly[[4,8‐bis[5‐(2‐ethylhexyl)thiophene‐2‐yl]benzo[1,2‐b:4,5‐b′]dithiophene‐2,6‐diyl][3‐fluoro‐2‐[(2‐ethylhexyl)‐carbonyl]thieno[3,4‐b]thiophenediyl]] (PCE‐10) as the electron donor.

Published: April 2017

AbstractWe explored the social influence of humor in a virtual human counselor's self‐disclosure while also varying the ethnicity of the virtual counselor. In a 2 × 3 experiment (humor and ethnicity of the virtual human counselor), participants experienced counseling interview interactions via Skype on a smartphone. We measured user responses to and perceptions of the virtual human counselor. The results demonstrate that humor positively affects user responses to and perceptions of a virtual counselor. The results further suggest that matching styles of humor with a virtual counselor's ethnicity influences user responses and perceptions. The results offer insight into the effective design and development of realistic and believable virtual human counselors. Furthermore, they illuminate the potential use of humor to enhance self‐disclosure in human–agent interactions.

Published: April 2017

AbstractMesoporous Pd@Pt nanoparticles possess high surface areas while still maintaining electroconductivity and low potential for agglomeration. By introducing L‐ or D‐DOPA (3,4‐dihydroxyphenylalanine) enantiomers during the synthesis of the mesoporous Pd@Pt nanoparticles, we can create a Pt shell that is sensitive to the chirality of the DOPA molecule. We demonstrate sensitive electrochemical detection of DOPA enantiomers.
LC–MS/MS and chiroptical spectroscopic analyses of multidimensional metabolic systems of chiral thalidomide and its derivatives

Published: April 2017

AbstractEnantiomeric thalidomide undergoes various kinds of biotransformations including chiral inversion, hydrolysis, and enzymatic oxidation, which results in several metabolites, thereby adding to the complexity in the understanding of the nature of thalidomide. To decipher this complexity, we analyzed the multidimensional metabolic reaction networks of thalidomide and related molecules in vitro. Characteristic patterns in the amount of various metabolites of thalidomide and related molecules generated during a combination of chiral inversion, hydrolysis, and hydroxylation were observed using liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry and chiroptical spectroscopy. We found that monosubstituted thalidomide derivatives exhibited different time‐dependent metabolic patterns compared with thalidomide. We also revealed that monohydrolyzed and monohydroxylated metabolites of thalidomide were likely to generate mainly by a C‐5 oxidation of thalidomide and subsequent ring opening of the hydroxylated metabolite. Since chirality was conserved in most of these metabolites during metabolism, they had the same chirality as that of nonmetabolized thalidomide. Our findings will contribute toward understanding the significant pharmacological effects of the multiple metabolites of thalidomide and its derivatives.

Published: April 2017

AbstractChiral solid membranes of cellulose, sodium alginate, and hydroxypropyl‐β‐cyclodextrin were prepared for chiral dialysis separations. After optimizing the membrane material concentrations, the membrane preparation conditions and the feed concentrations, enantiomeric excesses of 89.1%, 42.6%, and 59.1% were obtained for mandelic acid on the cellulose membrane,p‐hydroxy phenylglycine on the sodium alginate membrane, andp‐hydroxy phenylglycine on the hydroxypropyl‐β‐cyclodextrin membrane, respectively. To study the optical resolution mechanism, chiral discrimination by membrane adsorption, solid phase extraction, membrane chromatography, high‐pressure liquid chromatography ultrafiltration were performed. All of the experimental results showed that the first adsorbed enantiomer was not the enantiomer that first permeated the membrane. The crystal structures of mandelic acid andp‐hydroxy phenylglycine are the racematic compounds. We suggest that the chiral separation mechanism of the solid membrane is “adsorption – association – diffusion,” which is able to explain the optical resolution of the enantioselective membrane. This is also the first report in which solid membranes of sodium alginate and hydroxypropyl‐β‐cyclodextrin were used in the chiral separation ofp‐hydroxy phenylglycine.
