Abstract
Environmental pollution and overfishing of wild spiny loach have led to the increased demand for breeding the fish. However, the nutritional value between the wild and cultivated spiny loaches was unknown. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the nutritional components among the wild and cultivated spiny loaches at different growth stages by analyzing and comparing the proximate compositions, fatty acids, amino acids and volatile compounds. Results showed that the cultivated ones had significantly higher energy and fat contents than the wild. Particularly, the cultivated second-age spiny loach contained the highest contents of polyunsaturated fatty acids (4.83 ± 0.01%) and EPA + DHA (0.85 ± 0.02%). Besides, the total essential amino acid content of cultivated second-age spiny loach was 2201.28, exceeding that recommended in the FAO/WTO scoring pattern (2,190). And it had the highest flavor amino acid (6.24 ± 0.04 g/100 g), essential amino acid index value (71.82) and higher contents of volatile compounds. Overall, the cultivated spiny loach, especially that at the second growth stage, displayed the highest nutritional value. The findings of this study would help farmers to harvest the suitable breeding stage of spiny loaches from the perspective of nutritional value, which is beneficial to the sustainable fish farming.

Authors: Odeyemi Olushola Olufemi , Alaba Peter Adeniyi 
Published: October 2024

Abstract
This review discusses the challenges in designing and testing corrosion probes for aggressive marine environments. The objectives are to analyze existing literature, identify methodological problems, and highlight research gaps in subsea corrosion control. To achieve these, a comprehensive review of relevant literature was conducted, focusing on factors like high salinity, fluctuating temperatures, and the presence of corrosive agents. The methods involved synthesizing information from peer-reviewed articles, industry reports, and academic publications to thoroughly analyze current state of knowledge. The findings of this review highlight the need for standardized testing protocols, improved understanding of material compatibility, and consideration of real-world conditions in corrosion probe design and testing. Methodological problems include the lack of standardized testing protocols, limited understanding of material compatibility, and insufficient consideration of real-world conditions. These findings emphasize the challenges researchers and practitioners face in developing efficient and reliable corrosion control strategies for subsea assets. In terms of novelty and improvement, this manuscript contributes to improving corrosion control practices in aggressive marine environments by synthesizing existing literature, identifying methodological problems, and highlighting gaps. By addressing these challenges, future research can focus on developing innovative solutions and methodologies to enhance the durability and effectiveness of corrosion probes in subsea environments.
Capture and catalytic conversion of CO2 from marine and offshore applications – A review
Authors: Iliuta Ion , Larachi Faïçal 
Published: October 2024

Abstract
This contribution examines recent advances in modeling fluid dynamics and capture/conversion of CO2 from marine and offshore applications in packed-bed columns/trickle-bed reactors subjected to static inclination, externally-induced rolling and heaving motions. Breaking the axial symmetry of the two-phase flow once the packed bed system is tilted results in a significant decrease in process performance, the extent of which is determined by the magnitude of the tilt and the column/reactor diameter. Only the conversion of CO2 from marine engine emissions on-board large cargo ships via catalytic cycloaddition of CO2 to styrene oxide in multiphase large-diameter trickle-bed reactors increases slightly with increasing reactor inclination. Under the externally induced column/reactor oscillations, CO2 capture/conversion performance shifts toward the steady-state solution of the vertical column/reactor as the asymmetry between the two inclined positions decreases. Oscillating (between two inclined symmetrical positions) and heaving packed-bed columns/trickle-bed reactors generate an oscillating performance around the steady-state solution of the vertical static position, which is driven by the amplitude and period of the angular and heaving motions via the continuous evolution of the intensity of the reverse secondary flow and by the magnitude of the reactor/column diameter. The catalytic conversion of CO2 captured from marine emissions via an integrated process coupling reverse water-gas shift reaction and methanol synthesis in a fixed-bed reactors network system shows a remarkable enhancement with the addition of H2O adsorbent to the reaction systems in the sorption-enhanced process periods.

Published: October 2024

Abstract
Cryogenic treatment can be employed as an additional heat treatment step for martensitic steels, particularly high-carbon and high-alloy tool steels, to improve their mechanical properties and wear resistance. This enhancement results from a transformation of retained austenite and precipitation of finely distributed secondary carbides. The present study examines the impact of a shallow cryogenic treatment, performed between the quenching and tempering processes, on the corrosion resistance and fracture toughness of cold work tool steel X153CrMoV12. The influence of the shallow cryogenic treatment was evaluated using potentiodynamic polarization test, salt spray tests and three-point bending tests in various hydrogen charging conditions. In addition, the microstructure and phase transformation of the tool steel were investigated using high-resolution scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and dilatometer tests. The results suggest that the shallow cryogenic treatment followed by a single tempering cycle can slightly enhance the corrosion resistance of the steel. More importantly, the shallow cryogenic treatment positively affects fracture toughness and reduces hydrogen susceptibility. It is discussed how these improvements in the properties of the X153CrMoV12 steel are linked to the microstructural changes induced by the shallow cryogenic treatment.
Good Formability Despite High Accompanying Element Content of a Modified 20MnB4 Quenched and Tempered Steel
Authors: Guk S. , Prahl U. 
Published: October 2024

Abstract
This article provides a comparative characterization of the mechanical and technological properties of a modified 20MnB4 quenched and tempered steel that are important for further processing. The aim of the modification was to represent the steel as a secondary steel with a significantly increased holding of accompanying elements to be assumed in the future. The aim was to check whether the increased hardening tendency due to increasing levels of accompanying elements can be compensated for by a targeted reduction in the Mn content without negatively affecting through-hardenability and tempering resistance. An industrially available steel was used as a reference condition. The results showed that the reduction of the Mn content contributed to the increase in cold formability, while a strong decrease in effective hardening depth occurred with an insignificant change in tempering behavior.

Authors: Avilés-González Cesar Iván , Curcio Felice , Dal Molin Alberto , Casalino Monica , Finco Gabriele , Galletta Maura 
Published: October 2024

Abstract

Objectives
Analyze the mediating e moderating roles of self-compassion in the relationship between tutor support and both students’ caring efficacy and intention to leave.

Methods
A cross-sectional study using an online questionnaire was conducted.

Results
Self-compassion mediates the relationship between tutor support and students’ caring efficacy. Tutor support play a role on all the facets of self-compassion, but only two dimensions of this variable (mindfulness vs. over-identification) are significantly associated with both the dimensions of caring self-efficacy, with inverse effects. Self-compassion moderates the relationship between tutor support and intention to leave.

Conclusions
Tutor support can improve students’ caring efficacy by helping them to be mindful of their experiences in a nonjudgmental way. Supportive tutor can mitigate intention to leave by increasing self-compassion ability. Implications for International Audience Nursing education programs should implement workshops and briefings to develop students’ self-compassion ability. This can foster perceived caring efficacy in students and reduce intention to leave.
Exploring the mechanical and thermal properties of rubber-based nanocomposite: A comprehensive review
Authors: Panda Sameer , Mishra Swetalina , Pradhan Somalika , Badgayan Nitesh Dhar 
Published: October 2024

Abstract
The emergence and progression of synthetic rubber have paved the way in variegated prospects across various engineering and technological fields. Nonetheless, its inherent limitations such as poor mechanical and thermal properties including wear resistance, poor tensile strength, and lower thermal conductivity, as evident in styrene butadiene rubber and silicone rubber, have constrained its utility in numerous load-bearing scenarios. This limitation has been addressed by incorporating specific nanofillers into various rubber compositions, resulting in promising outcomes up to a certain threshold. Many nanofillers were trialed, such as graphite oxide, aluminum oxide, carbon nanotubes, and boron nitride. However, an attempt should be made to explore the disparity in dimensional attributes of nanofillers and their effect on different properties of rubber, thereby delineating the scope for future research. The exploration of dimensionally distinct nanofillers, such as 1D multiwalled carbon nanotubes and 2D graphene, can overcome these limitations and augment rubber’s mechanical properties and thermal properties. The study also delineates the scope of future research, which should be focused on optimizing the nanofillers’ dispersion and interfacial bonding within the rubber matrix by trying dimensionally different nanofillers.

Abstract
Nanotechnology revealed its unlimited success in many real-life applications. That’s why the incorporation of nanomaterials became vital for solving a lot of current problems. Metal Organic-frameworks (MOFs) are nanomaterials with outstanding advantages such as crystallinity, high surface area, various structures, and adsorption capacity. Furthermore, metal-Organic Frameworks have emerged as versatile and promising materials for various environmental applications, including wastewater treatment. These materials are stable in water which acquire them convenient properties for wastewater treatment applications, for instance adsorption, catalysis, separation and so on. Moreover, MOFs are characterized by their high surface area, tunable pore size, and exceptional adsorption capacity, have shown remarkable potential for the removal of contaminants in wastewater treatment systems. In this review, the variable roles of MOFs in wastewater treatment applications have been discussed and highlighted as well. Herein, we are additionally reviewing the state-of-the-art research trends on the applications of metal-organic framework materials in the removal of pollutants in wastewater treatmen t systems.
To Bag is to Prune
Authors: Goulet Coulombe Philippe 
Published: October 2024

Abstract
It is notoriously difficult to build a bad Random Forest (RF). Concurrently, RF blatantly overfits in-sample without apparent consequences out-of-sample. Arguments like the bias-variance trade-off or double descent cannot rationalize this paradox. I propose a new explanation: bootstrap aggregation and model perturbation as implemented by RF automatically prune a latent “true” tree. More generally, I document that randomized ensembles of greedily optimized learners implicitly perform optimal early stopping out-of-sample. So, letting RF overfit the training data is a dominant tuning strategy against nature’s undisclosed choice of noise level. Additionally, novel ensembles of Boosting and MARS are also eligible. I empirically demonstrate the property, with simulated and real data, by reporting that these new completely overfitting ensembles perform similarly to their tuned counterparts – or better.

CONTEXT
Tethered cord syndrome is associated with motor and sensory deficits.

OBJECTIVE
Our objective was to summarize evidence regarding the diagnosis, prophylactic surgery, symptomatic treatment, and repeat surgery of tethered spinal cord in a systematic review (CRD42023461296).

DATA SOURCES AND STUDY SELECTION
We searched 13 databases, reference-mined reviews, and contacted authors to identify diagnostic accuracy studies and treatment studies published until March 2024.

DATA EXTRACTION
One reviewer abstracted data, and a content expert checked the data for accuracy. We assessed the risk of bias, strength of evidence (SoE), and applicability.

RESULTS
The evidence base includes 103 controlled studies, many with risk of bias and applicability concerns, and 355 case series providing additional clinical information. We found moderate SoE for MRI diagnosing tethered spinal cord, with medium to high diagnostic sensitivity and specificity. A small number of prophylactic surgery studies suggested motor function benefits and stability of neurologic status over time, but also complications such as surgical site infection (low SoE). A larger body of evidence documents treatments for symptomatic patients; studies revealed improvement in neurologic status after surgical detethering (low SoE), but also postoperative complications such as cerebrospinal fluid leakage (moderate SoE). A small body of evidence exists for retethering treatment (low or insufficient SoE for all outcomes).

LIMITATIONS
There was insufficient evidence for key outcomes (eg, over- or undertreatment, clinical impact of diagnostic modalities, ambulation, quality of life).

CONCLUSIONS
This comprehensive overview informs difficult clinical decisions that parents and their children with tethered spinal cords, as well as their health care providers, face.

The development, testing, and implementation of antimicrobial agents necessitates the determination of their toxicological characteristics. The objective of our research was to ascertain the direction and magnitude of the impact of experimental samples of disinfectants based on binary silver-copper, silver-zinc, and copper nanoparticles on biological entities of disparate levels of organization (cell culture, laboratory animals). The culture of calf coronary vessel cells (CVCs), 220 mature white laboratory rats, and 45 Chinchilla rabbits were used for the study. Mixtures of binary nanoparticles D1: MeNPs content – 5.4 mmol/L; D2: MeNPs content – 4.9 mmol/L were used as antimicrobial compounds. Toxic effects on cell culture were determined by the percentage of monolayer integrity, and biological effects in animals were determined by determining acute and subacute toxicity by clinical and biochemical parameters. The results of the culture studies demonstrated that the CC50 value of D2 was 6.2 times lower than that of D1, indicating a higher degree of cytotoxicity. No animal deaths were observed in the acute toxicity test (single intragastric administration to white rats at a dose of 30000 mg/kg body weight), which permitted the classification of the test samples as Class VI toxicity (relatively harmless) and Class IV hazardous (low-hazardous). When applied topically to rabbits' skin and mucous membranes, the experimental samples did not exhibit a pronounced irritant effect. A 30-day dermal application of the drugs to rats at doses of 0.5 and 5.0 mL/kg was conducted to determine the impact on hematological and biochemical parameters of a tenfold dose. Following the cessation of the administration of the aforementioned experimental disinfectant samples, the levels of all indicators were observed to return to the control levels within 14 days. The higher toxicity of the D2 drug for biological systems of different levels of organization, compared to the D1 drug, may be attributed to two factors: the higher concentration of AgNPs (2.4 times) and the potentiation of the toxic effect of two binary compounds (Ag-Zn and Ag-Cu) in its composition. Further research is needed to determine the biological impact of experimental samples of disinfectants based on silver, copper, and zinc metal nanoparticles on other functional systems of laboratory animals and the clinical and biochemical status of productive agricultural animals in production conditions.

Drugs based on plants of the Asteraceae family are broadly used against microorganisms that are pathogenic to people and animals. However, their potentials in this aspect have not been fully researched. In our in vitro experiment, we tested alcohol tinctures of 12 species of plants of the Asteraceae family against 10 species of bacteria, one species of fungi, and the larval stages of three species of nematodes – parasites of ruminants (L1 Muellerius capillaris, L1–3 Strongyloides papillosus, L3 Haemonchus contortus). The growth inhibition zone larger than 8 mm was observed after using ethanol extracts of the aboveground parts of several plants against the colonies of various microorganisms: Solidago canadensis showed activity against five species – Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus mirabilis, Shigella flexneri, Clostridium perfringens, and Candida albicans; Cyclachaena xanthiifolia was effective against five species – Escherichia coli, P. mirabilis, Enterococcus faecalis, C. perfringens, and C. albicans); Jurinea arachnoidea inhibited four species – K. pneumoniae, P. mirabilis, Pseudomonas аeruginosa, and Bacillus subtilis); Scorzoneroides autumnalis acted against four species – P. mirabilis, Sh. flexneri, C. perfringens, and C. albicans; Helichrysum arenarium demonstrated activity against four species – P. mirabilis, Sh. flexneri, E. faecalis, and Listeria monocytogenes; and extracts from the fruits of Echinops ritro were active against four species – K. pneumoniae, P. mirabilis, Staphylococcus aureus, and B. subtilis, while extracts from the flowers of Echinops ritro were effective against four microorganisms – K. pneumoniae, P. mirabilis, Sh. flexneri, and Р. аeruginosa. However, we observed no expressed nematocidal action of ethanol extracts of the studied species of plants. After 24 h exposures to 0.1% solutions of those extracts, over 95% of the nematode larvae of ruminants were found to be vital. Nonetheless, as a result of the study, those plants were recognized the most promising for further in vivo research of antibacterial activity. During the search for antibacterial and antifungal activities, the following plants were found to be the less promising: the aboveground parts of Artemisia austriaca, Lactuca serriola, Ambrosia artemisiifolia, Solidago virgaurea, roots of Artemisia vulgaris, Echinops ritro, Lactuca serriola, Solidago canadensis, Ambrosia artemisiifolia, Scorzoneroides autumnalis, and leaves of Echinops ritro.
