Published: July 2024

BackgroundPoint-of-care Testing (POCT) glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) is a convenient, cheap, effective and accessible screening method for type 2 diabetes in rural areas and community settings that is widely used in the European region and Japan, but not yet widespread in China. The study is the first to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of POCT HbA1c, fasting capillary glucose (FCG), and venous blood HbA1c to screen for type 2 diabetes in urban and rural areas of China, and to identify the best socio-economically beneficial screening strategy.MethodsBased on urban and rural areas in China, economic models for type 2 diabetes screening were constructed from a social perspective. The subjects of this study were adults aged 18–80 years with undiagnosed type 2 diabetes. Three screening strategies were established for venous blood HbA1c, FCG and POCT HbA1c, and cost-effectiveness analysis was performed by Markov models. One-way sensitivity analysis and probabilistic sensitivity analysis were performed on all parameters of the model to verify the stability of the results.ResultsCompared with FCG, POCT HbA1c was cost-effective with an incremental cost-utility ratio (ICUR) of $500.06/quality-adjusted life year (QALY) in urban areas and an ICUR of $185.10/QALY in rural areas, within the willingness-to-pay threshold (WTP = $37,653). POCT HbA1c was cost-effective with lower cost and higher utility compared with venous blood HbA1c in both urban and rural areas. In the comparison of venous blood HbA1c and FCG, venous blood HbA1c was cost-effective (ICUR = $20,833/QALY) in urban areas but not in rural areas (ICUR = $41,858/QALY). Sensitivity analyses showed that the results of the study were stable and credible.ConclusionsPOCT HbA1c was cost-effective for type 2 diabetes screening in both urban and rural areas of China, which could be considered for future clinical practice in China. Factors such as geographic location, local financial situation and resident compliance needed to be considered when making the choice of venous blood HbA1c or FCG.

Staphylococcus epidermidis, a component of human microbiota, may also cause life-threatening opportunistic infections. These are becoming increasingly common infections associated with the implantation of various implants. Due to the exhaustion of antibiotic resources, new substances with antimicrobial activity are being sought. The present study examined the antibacterial effect of cinnamic acid and its derivatives and their combinations with β-lactam antibiotics on the growth of Staphylococcus epidermidis strains isolated from vascular infections. The data obtained during the research indicated that cinnamic acid and its derivatives, sinapic acid, ferulic acid, and p-coumaric acid, have weak antibacterial activity (MIC values at the level of 2048 and 4096 mg/L). The combination of cinnamic acid and its derivatives with β-lactam antibiotics increases the effectiveness of their action and may demonstrate various pharmacological effects depending on the established cutoff.

Published: July 2024

Low-frequency working standards of inductance are generally uniformly wound toroids on a ceramic core. Planar inductors made using printed circuit board (PCB) technology are simple and cheap to manufacture in comparison to inductors wound on toroid cores, but they are significantly prone to the influence of external magnetic fields. In this paper, we propose the design of a PCB inductance working standard of 10 μH, consisting of a duplex system of planar PCB coils, electrostatic shielding, and an enclosure. Alongside an electromagnetic analysis and design procedure, the measurements on the manufactured prototype included the generated magnetic field, the thermal time constant of the enclosure, temperature coefficients, and its error analysis. The measurements show negligible generated magnetic fields (<1.68 nT at 7 cm, 49 mA, 10 kHz). The minimum thermal time constant of the enclosure is 1270 s and the temperature coefficient of resistance is 0.00384 1/℃. The presented method of temperature coefficient measurement using a climate chamber allows for measurements in the temperature range of 10 °C to 40 °C. In this temperature range, the results show an inductance variation of 0.05 µH at 50 kHz, while the uncertainty of inductance measurement at this frequency was 0.03 µH (k = 2).

Intelligent Reflecting Surfaces (IRSs) enable us to have a reconfigurable reflecting surface that can efficiently deflect the transmitted signal toward the receiver. The initial step in the IRS usually involves estimating the channel between a fixed transmitter and a stationary receiver. After estimating the channel, the problem of finding the most optimal IRS configuration is non-convex, and involves a huge search in the solution space. In this work, we propose a novel and customized technique which efficiently estimates the channel and configures the IRS with fixed transmit power, restricting the IRS coefficients to {1,−1}. The results from our approach are numerically compared with existing optimization techniques.The key features of the linear system model under consideration include a Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface (RIS) setup consisting of 4096 RIS elements arranged in a 64 × 64 element array; the distance from RIS to the access point measures 107 m. NLOS users are located around 40 m away from the RIS element and 100 m from the access point. The estimated variance of noise NC is 3.1614 × 10−20. The proposed algorithm provides an overall data rate of 126.89 (MBits/s) for Line of Sight and 66.093 (MBits/s) for Non Line of Sight (NLOS) wireless communication.

The TIFY family is a plant-specific gene family that is involved in regulating a variety of plant processes, including developmental and defense responses. The Cymbidium species have certain ornamental and ecological value. However, the characteristics and functions of TIFY genes in Cymbidium remain poorly understood. This study conducted a genome analysis of the TIFY gene family in Cymbidium goeringii, C. ensifolium, and C. sinense and investigated their physicochemical properties, phylogenetic relationships, gene structures, and expression patterns under heat stress in C. goeringii. C. goeringii (26), C. ensifolium (19), and C. sinense (21). A total of 66 TIFY genes were identified, and they were classified into four subfamilies (JAZ, ZML, PPD, and TIFY) based on their systematic evolutionary relationships. Sequence analysis showed that TIFYs contained a conserved TIFY domain and that genes within the same subfamily had structural similarity. Analysis of cis-regulatory elements revealed that these genes contain numerous light-responsive elements and stress-responsive elements. We subjected C. goeringii (16 h light/8 h dark) to 24 h of 38 °C high-temperature stress in a climate chamber. Additionally, results from RT-qPCR experiments showed that under heat stress, the expression levels of eight genes in C. goeringii show significant differences. Among them, the JAZ subfamily exhibited the strongest response to heat stress, initially showing upregulation followed by a downregulation trend. In conclusion, this study investigated the role of TIFY genes in three Cymbidium species, providing insights into C. goeringii under heat stress.

Depression is a mental health disorder that affects millions of people worldwide. Plants and their products are widely used in the treatments of various diseases including depression for their therapeutic effectiveness with least or no side effects. The present study has therefore been conducted to evaluate the antidepressant like effects of Citrullus lanatus seed extract (CLSE) in the reserpine-induced depressed mouse model by assessing the phytoconstituents of CLSE, body weight, behaviour, histopathology of the adrenal gland and level of plasma corticosterone. Twenty-four adult male mice of Swiss strain were distributed into four groups of six each (n=6). Group I served as control while groups II, III and IV received reserpine (RES: 0.75mg/kg/BW/day) for 14 days, CLSE (300mg/kg/BW/day) only, for 28 days, and RES+CLSE [RES treatment for 14 days followed by CLSE treatment for 28 days], respectively. Behavioural alterations were analysed by food consumption, sucrose preference, eight-arm radial maze, and forced swim tests during the treatment. RES-induced depression caused marked alterations in the body weight, all behavioural parameters, histopathology of the adrenal cortex, and in the level of plasma corticosterone, compared with the control. Administration of CLSE only, did not cause significant alterations in all the studied parameters, compared with the control. However, CLSE administration in RES-treated mice resulted in significant restoration in all the studied parameters, similar to the control. The findings therefore suggest the antidepressive activity of the seeds of C. lanatus, that may emerge as one of the potential sources among the natural therapies of depression disorder.

Introduction: Nutrient-poor soil can lead to reduced crop yields. Biochar-organic fertilizer has demonstrated positive effects over several growing seasons. However, the efficacy of biochar-organic fertilizers varies based on the raw materials used and the duration of their application in the soil. This study aims to assess the residues of biochar, manure, and compost one year after their application on maize plants in Alfisol. Methods: A 300 kg/ha dosage was employed for a single treatment of biochar, manure, and compost. Additionally, biochar was combined with manure or compost at a dose of 150 kg/ha each. The experiment utilized a randomized block design with nine treatments and three replications, including a control group. The treatments comprised biochar made from coconut shell and husk, compost, manure, shell+compost biochar mixture, shell+manure biochar mixture, husk+compost biochar mixture, and husk+manure biochar mixture. Corn variety Pertiwi 3 was harvested upon reaching physiological maturity. Results: Combining husk biochar with chicken manure exhibited the most favorable response regarding plant height, leaf area, and weight. Furthermore, combining cob biochar and chicken manure yielded optimal cob length, weight without seeds, and seed weight. Conclusion: After one year, applying shell biochar mixed with manure demonstrated the most significant residual effect on corn plants.

range, we examine the median residual abundances of 14 open clusters, nine globular clusters, and four dwarf satellite galaxies. Relative to field Milky Way disk stars, the open clusters younger than 2 Gyr show ≈0.1−0.2 dex enhancements of the neutron-capture element Ce, and the two clusters younger than 0.5 Gyr also show elevated levels of C+N, Na, S, and Cu. Globular clusters show elevated median abundances of C+N, Na, Al, and Ce, and correlated abundance residuals that follow previously known trends. The four dwarf satellites show similar residual abundance patterns despite their different star formation histories, with ≈0.2–0.3 dex depletions in C+N, Na, and Al and ≈0.1 dex depletions in Ni, V, Mn, and Co. We provide our catalog of corrected APOGEE abundances, two-process amplitudes, and residual abundances, which will be valuable for future studies of abundance patterns in different stellar populations and of additional enrichment processes that affect galactic chemical evolution.
