Three-layered films enable efficient passive radiation cooling of buildings
Authors: Guo Yi 
Published: October 2024

Abstract
To address the excessive energy consumption of building cooling, the coverage of passive radiation cooling materials on the surface of buildings can effectively save the global refrigeration power resources and reduce the greenhouse gas emissions generated by refrigeration equipment. In this work, passive radiation hydrophobic fabric cooling materials with three functional layers (i.e., top polydimethylsiloxane [PDMS] film layer for solar emissivity, middle polymethylmethacrylate [PMMA] film layer for solar reflectivity, and bottom cotton fabric layer for support) were prepared. This passive radiation cooling material with optimized thickness of PDMS (1.5 mm) and PMMA (3.5 mm) have a rich uneven filament structure and ideal internal bonding structure, which enabled 94% of solar reflectivity and 93.4% of atmospheric window emissivity (8–14 μm). Top layer of the composite film was hydrophobic (a contact angle of 117°) and allowed the rolling of water droplets to remove most of the surface dust. Moreover, these composites presented an excellent cooling of 7.7–15.0°C in the outdoor real cooling test. For medium-sized houses, the roof covered with composite was expected to reduce the emission CO2 by 17% every year. The findings of this work indicated that the prepared three-layered radiation cooling materials have great potentials in thermal energy storage buildings.

Abstract
Gravity flow sand body is an important reservoir for deep water deposition. The in-depth study of its formation mechanism and oil enrichment law can provide important guidance for oil and gas exploration in deep water areas. In this article, taking the deep-water gravity flow sand body of the Triassic Chang 63 sub-member in the Huaqing area as an example, the identification characteristics, formation mechanism, and oil-bearing characteristics of the gravity flow sand body are systematically discussed. The results show that sandy debris flow, turbidite flow, and mixed event flow present different superposition combination modes on vertical gravity flow deposition. The lithofacies of the gravity flow sandstone complex are mainly affected by lake level fluctuation, provenance supply, and hydrodynamic conditions. According to the formation conditions, sedimentary types. and distribution characteristics of deep water gravity flow sand bodies, a three-dimensional sedimentary mode of deep water gravity flow sand bodies is established. It is found that the physical and oil-bearing properties of the sandy debris flow sand body are better than those of the turbidity flow sand body. The reason is that the proportion of debris in the sand body of sandy debris flow is high, and the content of debris particles is generally greater than 70% according to the statistics of thin sections, which is conducive to the formation of pores. Second, sandy debris flow belongs to block transport, and the mixing of lithology is not sufficient in the process of block flow transport, so some pores will be preserved. Finally, gravity flows, which are dense at the beginning, become less dense later as detrital sediments unload, allowing them to be transported to distant regions. Therefore, the monolayer thickness of the sandy debris flow sand body is large (generally greater than 0.5 m), and the particle size of the debris ranges from 0.03 to 0.3 mm. Finally, the physical and oil-bearing properties of the sandy clastic flow sand body are better than those of the turbidity flow sand body.

Published: October 2024

Abstract
Upper Permian Longtan Formation transitional shale has become an important exploration layer, but the Longtan Formation shale (LFS) has a complex mineralogical composition, which affects the subsequent diagenesis and diagenetic evolution, and restricts the subsequent geologic exploration of shale gas. In this article, the observation of drilling cores, argon ion polishing-scanning electron microscope, Vitrinite reflectance, and X-ray diffractometer were used to analyze the type and characteristics of diagenesis of the LFS and clarify the stage of diagenetic evolution. The results show that the main diagenesis in the LFS is compaction, cementation, thermal maturation of organic matter (OM), dissolution, and transform of clay minerals. Among them, OM hydrocarbon generation, clay mineral transformation, and dissolution are pore-enhancing diagenetic events. Compaction and cementation are pore-reducing diagenetic events. The transitional and marine shales have similar characteristics of diagenesis, but there are big variations in the diagenesis of OM hydrocarbon, authigenic quartz, and siderite. The complex depositional environments of the marine-continental transition environment have resulted in a variety of rock types, which in turn influenced the diagenesis types and diagenetic evolution process. Compared with the transitional shales of the Shanxi and Taiyuan formations in the South China North Basin, the LFS are characterized by high clay content, low quartz content, complex mineral compositions, and a higher degree of thermal evolution.

Published: October 2024

Abstract
In this article, we collected the seismic phase arrival data (115°–120°E, 34°–39°N) of 2,833 local natural earthquakes above magnitude 1.0 recorded by 128 seismograph stations provided by the China Earthquake Networks Center covering the period from January 2008 to October 2023. We extracted the first arrival P- and S-wave arrival time data and obtained 26,351 P- and 26,349 S-wave absolute arrival times and 99,627 P-differential and 99,625 S-differential arrival times. Then, we determined 3-D P and S wave velocity structures under the Luxi region by using the double-difference tomography method. The results show lateral heterogeneities under the Luxi region, and the distribution of surface basins and uplift zones is associated with seismic velocities within the crust. The vertical section shows the widespread presence of vertical high-velocity bodies within the crust of the Luxi region, indicating seismological evidence of mantle upwelling in the region. Meanwhile, our imaging results also clearly indicate the presence of a significant low-velocity anomaly at depths of 13–17 km, which corresponds to the presence of a high-conductivity layer at that depth obtained from electromagnetic bathymetry. The transition zone between high and low velocities exists at a depth of 7–13 km, which plays an important role in the transfer of lithospheric stresses from the deep to the shallow part of the lithosphere. Combined with the results of the previous deep seismic wave velocity structure, petrology, and geological investigations, the deep dynamical background of the formation of slip tectonics and seismic mechanism in the Luxi area can be attributed to the go-slip activity of the Tan-Lu fault Zone, the subduction of the Pacific Plate, and the magmatism generated by mantle upwelling.
Meillassoux and Heidegger – How to Deal with Things-in-Themselves?
Authors: Leidlmair Karl 
Published: October 2024

Abstract
In his critique of post-Kantian philosophy, Meillassoux expresses considerable doubts as to how it is capable of describing a world independent of man. He places Heidegger among the ranks of thinkers who are caught in the same trap of the thought-world circle. In this article, I will first examine which complex indirect proof Meillassoux uses to find a path towards an independent reality. In the next step, I will discuss where Heidegger locates Beings in themselves against the backdrop of the Dasein-Being correlation. A radical change of perspective on what it means to be a thinking and understanding “subject” is proposed in this context. In contrast to Meillassoux, an appropriate interpretation of Heidegger’s Dasein can show that there is no need for an indirect proof of a real outside of the correlation. The decisive question is how Heidegger’s correlation of Dasein and Being can be reconciled with statements about the ancestral or whether it stands in implacable opposition to such statements.

Published: October 2024

This study focused on developing a new Phenton treatment of water effluent coming from a local industrial estate and staining industry site. Different advanced oxidation technologies (AOTs) such as heterogeneous photocatalysis, Photo-Fenton and UV-Vis/H2O2 using FeSO4, and pure iron were evaluated. To develop this study, water samples were tested before and after each treatment. In general, after AOTs the amount of chlorides, nitrates, hydrocarbons, heavy metals, TOC and bacteria significantly decreased. Photo-Fenton and UV-Vis/H2O2/TiO2 showed the best performance in the treatment of staining industry and industrial wastewater, respectively. Photo-Fenton mineralized 100% of dyes, reduced by 99% total coliforms, eliminated 76% of TOC and 60% of heavy metals tested. Interestingly, use of iron metal in the Photo-Fenton treatment was found to achieve similar results. This means wastewater can be treated with benign chemicals. Treated wastewater was evaluated as a potential water source for the irrigation of Lolium perenne, a conventional crop in animal feed. In general, the physical characteristics of Lolium perenne such as leaf and roof length and width, were not significantly modified after irrigation with treated wastewater. Similar results were obtained using treated tap water as reference. A trace number of metals remaining from treatment was detected in grass and soil. However, the concentration of Cd, Cr, Cu, and Zn was very similar to tap water. Considering these outcomes, use of non-toxic zero valent iron metal and hydrogen peroxide in a Photo-Fenton reaction is a pilot plant scalable alternative oxidating treatment technology for recycling industrial wastewater in agricultural activities.Top of Form
The Comparison of Physical Activity Levels among School-age Adolescents in the Rural and Urban Areas of District Swat KPK, Pakistan- An Analytical Cross-Sectional Study
Authors: Uddin Imran 
Published: October 2024

Abstract

Background
Obesity and overweight represent significant global public health concerns. Young adolescents are in particular increasingly experiencing obesity and overweight due to their sedentary lifestyles, excessive electronic media use, and lack of physical activity (PA). This trend is linked to the development of non-communicable diseases in later life. Moreover, data regarding the lack of PA is available in Pakistan, but a gap exists in the comparative analysis of physical activity levels between rural and urban adolescents. Rural and urban areas exhibit distinctions in both geographical settings and technological advancements, potentially influencing the PA levels of their respective inhabitants.
Purpose
The study aimed to compare physical activity levels among school-age adolescents in rural and urban areas of Swat, KPK, Pakistan. In addition, the study also aimed to explore how gender, age, grade, and school type influenced the PA levels of adolescents.
Method
A cross-sectional analytical study was carried out with a sample size of 287 school-age adolescents (aged 10 to 14 years) selected from 08 public and private middle schools in rural and urban areas of district Swat, KPK, Pakistan. The data about physical activity was collected using a researcher-administered questionnaire adapted from the Physical Activity Questionnaire for Older Children (PAQ-C). In addition, the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 22 was used for the analysis of data.
Findings
The mean PA score for rural adolescents was 3.65±0.38, whereas the mean PA score for urban adolescents was 2.22±0.47. Thus, there was a mean difference of 1.43 which was significant at 0.05 level of significance (t= 28.11, p value=<0.001). In addition, a significant difference between private and government school-age adolescents’ PA levels was found (t-value (3.73), df (285) p-value of (<0.001). Moreover, there was no significant difference in PA levels in terms of gender and grade of adolescents. Further, a very low negative correlation was found (r = -0.1) between the age and PA scores of school-age adolescents.
Conclusion
Place of residence has an impact on the PA level of adolescents because the study found a significant difference in the mean PA levels of school-age adolescents in rural and urban areas. It is recommended to conduct future research to identify the factors that contribute to disparities in PA among adolescents residing in rural and urban areas.

Abstract

The objective of this paper is to design an adaptive intrusion detection system that combines Signature Based Intrusion Detection System (SNIDS) and machine learning/deep learning techniques to enhance the anomaly detection.The rapid advancement of digital technology has fueled an unprecedented growth in computer networks, which has played a vital role in fostering social and economic development. These networks have become indispensable across critical sectors and within leading multinational corporations. However, the number of security threats targeting computer networks has increased significantly over the past decade, becoming increasingly audacious and pervasive. The networks display significant heterogeneity and are subjected to a relentless stream of diverse and evolving attacks, emphasizing the necessity for an adaptive IDS system capable of adjusting to new and changing network environments.In this study, we propose a Adaptive hybrid NIDS designed to detect cyber attacks in an heterogeneous attack environment. Our NIDS framework leverages the adaptive learning techniques used along with the signature base IDS and machine learning based IDS to detect unknown attacks. Various machine learning models, including LSTM, CNN, MLP, and Decision Tree are used in this adaptive system. Our hybrid Network intrusion detection model is based on Snort-3 as the SNIDS, which provides high efficiency and better prediction results. The network baseline includes the set of benign traffic patterns and self generated datasets using Metasploit and Scapy. Our study compares the results of models trained on CICIDS2017 dataset and the generated dataset. The generated dataset provides better flexibility and performance in real-time setup due to the use of Zeek-flowmeter instead of CICFlowmeter. To detect real-time dynamic traffic attacks, a dashboard integrated with SNIDS and ML/DL-based IDS is developed. This dashboard is subsequently utilized to assess the Adaptive NIDS in a real-time dynamic network environment.

Abstract

Disordered hemostasis associated with life-threatening hemorrhage commonly afflicts patients in the emergency room, critical care unit, and perioperative settings. Rapid and sensitive hemostasis phenotyping is needed to guide administration of blood components and hemostatic adjuncts to reverse aberrant coagulofibrinolysis. Here, resonant acoustic rheometry (RAR), a technique that quantifies the viscoelastic properties of soft biomaterials, was applied to assess plasma coagulation in a cohort of bleeding patients with concomitant clinical coagulation assays and whole blood thromboelastography (TEG) as part of their routine care. RAR captured the dynamic characteristics of plasma coagulation that were coagulation activators-dependent. RAR coagulation parameters correlated with TEG reaction time and TEG functional fibrinogen, especially when stratified by comorbidities. A quadratic classifier trained on RAR parameters predicted transfusion of fresh frozen plasma and cryoprecipitate with high overall accuracy. These results demonstrate the potential of RAR as a bedside hemostasis assessment to guide transfusion in bleeding patients.

Abstract

Objective To explore the differential gene expression in peripheral blood immune cells of individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM), comparing those with and without non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR).Methods From 117 potential participants, 51 were selected for detailed analysis: 9 healthy donors (HDs), 19 with DM, and 23 with NPDR. We analyzed peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) using RNA sequencing and qPCR to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and used flow cytometry to assess protein expression.Results In NPDR patients compared to those with DM alone, MerTK—a gene linked to inherited retinal dystrophies—was notably downregulated in PBMCs. Flow cytometry revealed MerTK predominantly in monocytes and myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), with reduced expression in CD4 + and CD8 + T cells and natural killer T (NKT) cells. DM patients showed significant deviations in PBMC composition, especially in B cells, CD4 + T cells, and NK cells, compared to HDs.Conclusions The study indicates that MerTK expression in T cells within PBMCs could act as a viable blood biomarker for NPDR risk in DM patients. Furthermore, the regulation of T cells by MerTK might represent a critical pathway through which DM evolves into NPDR.

Abstract

Patients with acute cardiovascular disease require out-of-hospital care during the most critical and vulnerable periods of their illness. The aim of this paper is to evaluate the influence of musical intervention in patients with acute cardiovascular disease during transfer in Advanced Life Support (ALS) ambulances by means of an analytical randomized controlled case-control experimental study conducted according to CONSORT guidelines. Forty-one subjects took part in the study. Statistically significant differences were found for blood pressure (p < 0.05). The 26.8% of the patients required the administration of cardiovascular drugs, 12.2% antiemetics and 17.1% opioids. Statistically significant differences were found for blood pressure and the variable cardiovascular drugs between groups. The use of music therapy to complement other health measures in ALS ambulances lowers blood pressure values and reduces the need to administrate cardiovascular drugs, thus avoiding their possible side effects. It is easy to implement and has a low cost and should be monitored and controlled as a specific nursing intervention. Music intervention should be monitored and controlled as a specific nursing intervention, included in the care of patients transferred by ambulances on a routine basis.

Abstract

Excessive DNA damage triggers various types of programmed cell death (PCD), yet the regulatory mechanism of DNA damage-induced cell death is not fully understood. Here, we report that PANoptosis, a coordinated PCD pathway including pyroptosis, apoptosis and necroptosis, is activated by DNA-damage. The Z-DNA binding protein 1 (ZBP1) is the apical sensorof PANoptosis and essential for PANoptosome assembly in response to DNA damage. We find endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) are activated by DNA damage and act as ligands for ZBP1 to trigger PANoptosis. By using ZBP1 knock-out and knock-in mice disrupting ZBP1 nucleic acid-binding activity, we demonstrate that ZBP1-mediated PANoptosis contributes to toxic effects of chemotherapeutic drugs, which is dependent on ZBP1 nucleic acid-binding activity. We found ZBP1 expression is downregulated in tumor tissue. Furthermore, in colorectal cancer patients, dsRNA is induced by chemotherapy and sensed by ZBP1 in normal colonic tissues, suggesting ZBP1-mediated PANoptosis is activated by chemotherapy in normal tissues. Our findings indicate ZBP1-mediated PANoptosis is activated by DNA damage and contributes to toxic side effects of DNA-damage based chemotherapy. These data suggest that ZBP1 could be a promising therapeutic target to alleviate chemotherapy-related side effects.
