Authors: Jeon Won , Lee Mi Young , Lee Joo Hyun , Lyuh Chun‐Gi 
Published: October 2024

AbstractAs computing systems become increasingly larger, high‐performance computing (HPC) is gaining importance. In particular, as hyperscale artificial intelligence (AI) applications, such as large language models emerge, HPC has become important even in the field of AI. Important operations in hyperscale AI and HPC are mainly linear algebraic operations based on tensors. An AB21 supercomputing AI processor has been proposed to accelerate such applications. This study proposes a XEM accelerator to accelerate linear algebraic operations in an AB21 processor effectively. The XEM accelerator has outer product‐based parallel floating‐point units that can efficiently process tensor operations. We provide hardware details of the XEM architecture and introduce new instructions for controlling the XEM accelerator. Additionally, hardware characteristic analyses based on chip fabrication and simulator‐based functional verification are conducted. In the future, the performance and functionalities of the XEM accelerator will be verified using an AB21 processor.

This research was motivated by the problems of students of the English education study program at UIN Sjech M. Djamil Djambek Bukittinggi. Some students pronounce the dental fricative sound in various ways. First, some students pronounce the sound /?/ correctly, however, there are also some students pronounce the sound /?/ by replacing it with the sound /t/. Second, some students pronounce the sound /ð/ correctly, however, there are also some students pronounce the sound /ð/ by replacing it with the sound /d/. The researcher's question in this study was how students pronounce the dental fricatives sound at the initial, medial and final position of a word based on the PRAAT application. The purpose of this study was to analyze the way students pronounce the dental fricative sound at the initial, middle and final of a word based on the PRAAT application. This study uses a qualitative research method with seventh semester students as the research population. The research sample amounted to 13. Data was collected through audio recordings. Students are asked to pronounce 12 words that contain the sound of dental fricative sound. The sound is uploaded to the PRAAT software. The results showed that some of the students pronounce the dental fricative sound correctly, showed by a spectogram display like a scribble pattern in the focus phoneme. others pronounce the dental fricative sound incorrectly, showed by an empty area on spectrogram in the focus phoneme. It showed that they replaced the phoneme with another phoneme such as /t/ or /d/. Researchers can conclude as follows. First, some students pronounce the dental fricative sound correctly. Second, most of the students pronounce the dental fricative sound incorrectly.
Whose Fundamental Constitutions?
Authors: Brewer Holly 
Published: October 2024

This article uses the methods that Locke advocated in his Essay Concerning Human Understanding to evaluate manuscript evidence from five different schemes and two drafts of the Fundamental Constitutions of Carolina, to thereby determine what role, if any, John Locke had in writing it, and in advocating for slavery and absolutism. It focuses on the influential claims put forward by David Armitage 20 years ago, that Locke was responsible for actively promoting slavery in Carolina’s Fundamental Constitutions. It enables the reader to view, and judge, the relevant evidence. The author concludes, and invites the reader to conclude, that Armitage’s main claims lack foundation in the manuscript evidence. That evidence instead points towards the legal power of those who owned Carolina, the Lords Proprietors, and to the crown, which granted Carolina’s charter, and to the logic of a different theory of government, patriarchalism, for the rationale behind both slavery and absolutism. The central ideas behind slavery and colonization were epitomized, as Locke understood, by Sir Robert Filmer, who wrote the book to which Locke responded in his Two Treatises of Government. Filmer’s ally, Sir Henry Spelman, like Filmer a deeply committed royalist who believed in the king’s unlimited prerogatives, composed the original 1629 Carolina charter that shaped the Fundamental Constitutions. Misattributing the authorship of particular clauses to Locke is a symptom of a larger failure to distinguish the impact of momentous debates over authority and race in the seventeenth century. Locke’s theories did, in practice as well as principle, reject the theory of domination put forward by Filmer, and argued instead for human rights and democracy that were inclusive and capacious. The manuscript evidence has the potential to reshape how modern democratic theory is understood in the present.

Published: October 2024

Left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) is a crucial indicator of cardiac function, particularly in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is the standard of care for STEMI, but its impact on LVEDP and patient recovery remains to be thoroughly studied. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the improvement in LVEDP following primary PCI in patients with acute STEMI and to assess its impact on recovery and clinical outcomes. Methods: This prospective study included 100 patients with acute STEMI treated by primary PCI. LVEDP was recorded at four-time points: before PCI, and at one week, one month, and three months post-PCI. Demographic and clinical characteristics were also collected. Statistical analysis was performed to compare LVEDP values at different time intervals using paired t-tests and repeated measures ANOVA to assess significant changes over time. Results: The mean LVEDP significantly decreased from 18 ± 4 mmHg before PCI to 12 ± 3 mmHg at one week, 10 ± 2 mmHg at one month, and 9 ± 2 mmHg at three months post-PCI (p < 0.001). This demonstrated a consistent improvement in left ventricular function and hemodynamic status, suggesting favorable patient recovery post-intervention. Conclusion: Primary PCI significantly reduces LVEDP in patients with acute STEMI, leading to improved cardiac function and patient recovery. Monitoring LVEDP post-PCI can serve as a valuable predictor of patient prognosis and long-term outcomes. Further studies are warranted to explore additional therapies that may further enhance recovery and improve the quality of life in STEMI patients.

Introdução: Fratura peniana é definida como perda da continuidade da túnica albugínea do corpo cavernoso que ocorre na maioria dos casos durante a ereção do pênis no intercurso da relação sexual. Há descrição de pacientes que apresentam fraturas recidivantes, no entanto os casos relatados sobre o tema são bastantes escassos, resultando em controvérsias no tratamento. Objetivo: Comparar os artigos selecionados para avaliar estratégias de tratamento e prevenção das recorrências deste tipo de trauma. Métodos: Foram pesquisados artigos completos nas ferramentas de busca nos idiomas inglês, português, espanhol e francês, com o uso das seguintes palavras-chaves: “penile fracture”, “secondary”, “recidivant”, “second”, “repetitive”, “rupture”, “corpus cavernosus”, “refracture of penis”, “sex related injuries” e suas variações. Resultados: Foram identificados 20 artigos após seleção final relatando 24 casos de refratura peniana. No reparo da primeira lesão a maioria dos autores optou por usar fio absorvível, enquanto na recidiva metade escolheu inabsorvível e outra absorvível. A principal causa foi o intercurso sexual entre a faixa etária de 21 a 51 anos, média 39,1 anos. Conclusões: Não foram identificadas recomendações claras para a prevenção da fratura peniana. Entretanto, por se tratar de um trauma, a prevenção é evitar situações de risco como relação sexual em uso de álcool ou substâncias alucinógenas. Recomenda-se utilizar um fio de sutura que ofereça maior resistência quando comparado ao fio usado no primeiro episódio de fratura.

Este artigo examina a eficácia das medidas executivas atípicas, conforme previsto no artigo 139, inciso IV, do Código de Processo Civil de 2015, no contexto do cumprimento de sentença relacionada à obrigação alimentar entre parentes. A pesquisa busca compreender as implicações dessas medidas no sistema processual brasileiro, especialmente quanto à proteção do credor de alimentos e à preservação dos direitos fundamentais do devedor, como a dignidade da pessoa humana e o mínimo existencial. São abordados aspectos como a evolução histórica das medidas executivas no Brasil, desde as formas tradicionais de cumprimento até a adoção das medidas atípicas, como a apreensão de documentos e bloqueio de cartões de crédito. Além disso, o estudo analisa a viabilidade jurídica de tais medidas com base em doutrina e jurisprudência. Conclui-se que as medidas atípicas são uma alternativa eficaz à prisão civil, ampliando as possibilidades de coerção sem onerar excessivamente o devedor.

Las reacciones cutáneas adversas graves conllevan un riesgo significativo para la salud y vida del paciente. Además, su tratamiento puede resultar complicado. Ejemplos de estas condiciones incluyen la necrólisis epidérmica tóxica, el síndrome de Stevens-Johnson, la pustulosis exantemática generalizada aguda y la reacción farmacológica con eosinofilia y síntomas sistémicos. Aunque aún no se comprende completamente el mecanismo de estas enfermedades, parece que están involucrados mecanismos inmunológicos, reacciones citotóxicas e hipersensibilidad retardada. La necrólisis epidérmica tóxica presenta una tasa de mortalidad significativa del 30% al 50%, así como secuelas a largo plazo. Es fundamental evaluar los sistemas cutáneo, mucoso, pulmonar, renal, genital y ocular para diagnosticarlos y para identificar posibles complicaciones, como la sepsis. En el servicio de urgencias, las pruebas de laboratorio y radiológicas pueden ayudar a identificar complicaciones, pero no permiten confirmar el diagnóstico. El tratamiento implica el ingreso a una unidad de quemados, donde se brinda atención especializada que incluye el suministro preciso de líquidos, electrolitos, proteínas y energía, así como ventilación mecánica moderada y cuidado especializado de las heridas. A pesar de que su aplicación específica ha sido motivo de controversia, los estudios han demostrado que el uso de fármacos inmunosupresores o inmunoglobulinas no ha arrojado una mejoría significativa en los resultados de esta afección.

Published: October 2024

Mosquito bites spread many deadly diseases like dengue, chikungunya, zika virus, malaria etc. The spread of these diseases can be controlled by checking the mosquito population. Bacterial control is an effective way to kill mosquitoes without harming non-target organisms. The review discusses the role of bacteria in mosquito control. Several useful bacteria involved in mosquito control such as E. coli, Streptococcus, Pseudomonas, Bacillus and Enterococcus that effectively kill the mosquitoes by producing insecticidal proteins such as endotoxins, Bin and Mtx proteins that specifically bind only with targeted mosquito species and kill them. Bacteria belongs to genus Bacillus found most effective against mosquito larvae such as Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis and Bacillus sphaericus, which produces endotoxins, selectively target mosquito larvae. When these toxins are consumed by larvae, these endotoxins disrupt the cells of midgut of larvae, which kills them before they can develop into adult mosquitoes. This selective and ecologically benign strategy minimizes damage to creatures that are not its intended targets. The environmental safety and specificity of bacterial control methods make them more sustainable and effective as compared to chemical control of mosquitoes population. This approach is more selective and more sustainable since it minimizes the impact on the environment and reduces the likelihood that resistance would develop. In this review we are presenting about the bacterial world and their interactions with mosquitoes, parasites, nematodes etc. and how they prevent disease transmission.
