After the invention of new IoT devices the new connection has been added in the network and bulk of data flow in the system. AI is very famous algorithum and software-defined networking (SDN) is new fast network controlling method both can be integrate for fast and secure network-related scenarios and finding great experience and growing interest in the research community. The present network connected to many number of objects over the Internet and present a complex scenario. To ensure security, privacy, confidentiality, and programmability, the architecture of AI and blockchain for SDN network is proposed in this paper. For network service provider this is ample time to apply artificial intelligence (AI) and blockchain (BC) in a software-defined network controller to ensure a secure network control, traffic management and system optimimum performnce. Also for shortest path to reduce delay in the network, the best routing algorithum must be apply in the network. The AI (artificial intelligence) algorithum can help SDN controller to fastdecision to reduced delay and can provide security in the network. In this paper routing algorithm also will be investigate faster Network.

Abstract

An optically levitated nanoparticle in a vacuum provides an ideal platform for ultra-precision measurements and fundamental physics studies because of the exceptionally high-quality factor and rich motional modes, which can be engineered by manipulating the optical field and the geometry of the nanoparticle. Nanofabrication technology with the ability to create arbitrary nanostructure arrays offers a precise way of engineering the optical field and the geometry of the nanoparticle. Here, for the first time, we optically levitate and rotate a nanofabricated nanorod via a nanofabricated a-Si metalens which strongly focuses a 1550nm laser beam with a numerical aperture of 0.91. By manipulating the laser beam’s polarization, the levitated nanorod’s translation frequencies can be tuned, and the spin rotation mode can be switched on and off. Then, we demonstrated that the rotational frequency relies on the laser beam’s intensity and polarization as well as the air pressure. Finally, a MHz spin rotation frequency of the nanorod is achieved in the experiment. This is the first demonstration of controlled optical spin in a metalens-based compact optical levitation system. Our research holds promise for realizing scalable on-chip integrated optical levitation systems.

Authors: Osama Mohd , Kumar Rajesh , Shahid Mohammad 
Published: June 2024

Abstract

Presently Coronary artery disease, often caused by the narrowing of the coronary artery lumen due to atherosclerosis, is a leading cause of death. Coronary angiography also known as cardiac catheterization or X-ray angiography, is a medical procedure that uses X-ray imaging to visualize the coronary arteries, which supply blood to the heart muscle. X-ray angiography is procedure to assess the blood flow through these arteries and to identify any blockages or abnormalities. The accuracy of X-ray angiography depends on the quality of the imaging equipment as well as experience and expertise of the radiologist. Poor image quality could affect the accurate diagnosis of coronary arteries. Manual interpretation of angiography images is subjective and time consuming. In some cases, small or diffuse blockages may not be easily visible, and additional imaging techniques may be required. Therefore, early automated detection of blockage of heart vessels became necessary for detection and diagnosis. The artificial intelligence algorithms could play a vital role in this area. In this paper, a deep-learning based algorithm has been used for recognition of blockage in coronary angiographic visuals. Here, we proposed deep learning (YOLOv8) models for the detection of blockage into blood vessels coronary angiography images. In this experiment about 1934 labelled X-ray angiography images has been used from Mendeley. For Experimentation purpose, images are preprocessed and augmented. Total 80% images have been used for training and 20% images has been used for testing. The experimental results show that the measuring metrices of proposed model for detection of blood vessels blockage area in rectangular box. The performance of model represented by predicted value of Precision, recall, mean average precision (mAP) and F1 score are, 99.4%, 100%, 99.5% and 99.7% respectively.
Assessment of past dioxin emissions from waste incineration plants based on archive studies and process modeling: a new methodological tool
Authors: Zhang Xiaocheng , de Aragao Alexis , Moll-François Fabien , Berthet Aurélie , Breider Florian 
Published: June 2024

Abstract

Pollution from past industrial activities can remain unnoticed for years or even decades because the pollutant has only recently gained attention or identified by measurements. Modeling the emission history of pollution is essential for estimating population exposure and apportioning potential liability among stakeholders. This paper proposes a novel approach for reconstructing the history of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxin (PCDD) and polychlorinated dibenzofuran (PCDF) pollution from municipal solid waste incinerators (MSWIs) with unknown past emissions. The proposed methodology relies on the search for technical and operational data on the pollution source in archives, the extraction of representative data from the scientific literature, and the use of kinetic models of the formation and decomposition of PCDD/Fs within combustion chambers. This new methodological tool allows to estimate the MSWI’s stack emission and relative profile of seventeen PCDD/F congeners over time. The approach was validated through a case study of a MSWI in Switzerland. The modeled congener profile achieved a Pearson correlation coefficient of 0.98 with measurements in fly ash washwater. Additionally, the simulated soil quantity (1,283–1,698 gTEQWHO−2022 or 1,115-1,419 gTEQ WHO−2005) fell within the same order of magnitude as the estimated quantity from measurements (425 gTEQ WHO−2022 or 371 gTEQ WHO−2005).

Abstract

Paraganglioma or extra-adrenal pheochromocytoma is a rare entity, particularly in its bladder location. When functional, paragangliomas are easily recognised by their clinical presentation. The danger comes when it is non-functional or unusual, where serious intraoperative complications may occur. The authors report an atypical and silent presentation of bladder paraganglioma in a 39-year-old female patient who had undergone a left surrenalectomy for pheochromocytoma 16 years previously and consulted for lower urinary tract symptoms related to bladder lithiasis. Cystoscopy revealed a calcified bladder polyp. Complete trans-urethral resection of the tumour was performed without intraoperative complications. Histological analysis of the resection shavings concluded that the tumour was a bladder pheochromocytoma. Post-operative management was simple.

Abstract

Philadelphia-like acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph-like ALL) is a molecularly distinct tyrosine kinase-driven entity burdened with a high risk of relapsing disease and poor response toward combinatorial chemotherapy. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) have been introduced into recent treatment protocols to improve the survival of patients with Ph-like ALL, yet preliminary data indicate subpar outcome. To advance treatment concepts for this genetic subtype of ALL, engineered antibody and CAR T-cell based immunotherapy has been proposed. Alternatively, the clinical use of natural killer cells endowed with a CAR or combined with leukemia epitope-directed antibodies is a conceivable strategy, which allows for an adoptive transfer of immune cells in an allogeneic setting with a low risk of graft-versus-host reaction. Here, we explored memory-like NK cells and Fc-enhanced CD19 antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) in combination with TKI directed against in vitro models of kinase-driven leukemia. We demonstrate that the memory-like state of NK cells is determined by interleukin-mediated epigenetic reprogramming resulting in enhanced antileukemic effector functions. TKI differentially interfere with NK cell function and receptor repertoire, but CD19 antibody-mediated cytotoxicity operates ABL and JAK-independent allowing for simultaneous administration of memory-like NK cells, CD19 antibody, and specific TKI with high treatment efficacy in vitro.

Sense of loss of control and impaired goal-directed control in Bulimia nervosa: A case-control study
Authors: Peng Sufang , Zheng Hui , Wu Mengting , Guo Lei , Zhang Lei , Yuan TiFei , Chen Jue 
Published: June 2024

Abstract

Background: The sense of loss of control (LOC) is the key psychological characteristics of bulimia nervosa (BN), and runs throughout the binge-eating and purging behavior. Recent research has shown that LOC may result from impaired goal directed control.
Method: This study examined the relationship between LOC and goal directed control in BN patients. Female patients with BN and healthy controls were enrolled (35 vs 35, age ranged from 17-30). The difference in demographic information, eating disorder scale, mood status, impulsivity, and food addiction scales were compared between the two groups. A sequential two-stage decision task was used to assess goal-directed/habitual control in both groups, and metrics were fitted by computational psychiatry method to assess the goal-directed control. We explored the relationship between LOC and goal directed control using multiple linear regression and partial correlations in BN group. The patients with BN were followed up 1 month after discharge, and the relationship between goal-directed control and treatment outcome which was indicated by LOC reduction rate was analyzed.
Results: BN subjects exhibited impaired goal-directed control, more psychological/behavior characters related to eating disorder, and higher depression, anxiety, impulsivity, food addiction level. BN patients’ higher LOC was associated with goal directed impairment index, eating/weight concern, dietary restriction, BISBAS behavior drive, BIS noplanning impulse and age (p<0.05). However, the influence of goal directed impairment index (choice stickiness and beta MF) on LOC still existed after regressed other factors. The treatment outcome was associated with goal directed impairment index, body shape concern, weight concern, BISBAS behavior drive/fun seeking, BIS noplanning impulse, YFAS. When other factors were regressed and only spaceship task test indicators were considered, a clear trend was observed for higher mixing weight, lower beta MB and choice stickiness (p<0.001) were associated with better treatment outcomes.
Conclusion: We provided evidence on relevant role of goal-directed control deficit in the LOC of BN. The behavioral symptoms of BN are understood from the psychological feature of LOC, and the common potential psychological mechanism of BN and other mental disorders is explored by verifying the role of goal-directed deficits in LOC. These findings provided new insight to improve the interventions of BN. In the future, it may be possible to improve the sense of LOC in BN by intervening with goal-directed deficits.
Association between Self-Reported Sleep Quality and Body Mass Index among Jimma University Academic Staff: Structural Equation Modeling
Authors: Ahmed Essa , Gizaw Getu , Argaw Alemayehu 
Published: June 2024

Abstract

Background
Adult populations of more than 2 billion and 1.12 trillion people will suffer from overweight and obesity, respectively, by 2030. Sleep quality has declined simultaneously with the increased prevalence of overweight and obesity, suggesting a potential link. However, there are inadequate published articles showing that poor sleep quality is a risk factor for obesity in young and older adults in Ethiopia.
Methods
An institution-based cross-sectional study of Jimma University academic staff was conducted. A total of 427 academic staff members participated in the study. A two-stage cluster sampling procedure was used to select study participants by their departments. Height and weight measurements were taken by trained data collectors. A reliable self-administered questionnaire was used to assess sleep quality. Analysis was performed using Stata version 13.1. Structural equation modeling using the maximum likelihood estimation method was used to analyze the data.
Results
A total of 32.3% (95% CI: 28.0, 36.9) of the participants had poor sleep quality. The mean (± SD) BMI of the respondents was 22.7 (± 3.1) kg/m2. The study indicated that 23.1% of the academicians at Jimma University had a BMI greater than 25 kg/m2. The overall prevalence of depression, anxiety, and stress was 25.5%, 44.7%, and 16.62%, respectively. Poor sleep quality appeared to have a significant inverse and indirect association with BMI (β = -0.08/P = 0.042), which was mediated through depression and obesogenic dietary behavior.
Conclusion
The present study revealed that poor sleep quality is inversely associated with BMI among Jimma University academic staff. It is highlighted in the study that there is a significant interplay between depression, obesogenic eating behavior and poor sleep quality in influencing healthy weight, but future research should emerge to test this association with the support of clinical trials.

Published: June 2024

Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Most people with dementia (PwD) are living with support from an informal caregiver (IC). Sleep issues are common among all types of dementia and increase the burden on the IC. Disturbed nights may lead to earlier nursing home admission. This study explored the experiences and challenges concerning sleep of PwD and IC. METHODS: A qualitative study using semi-structured interviews was performed. The target groups were PwD, IC, and care professionals. The sample comprised 20 informal caregivers, 2 PwD, and 9 professionals. Thematic analysis is used to identify patterns within and across data concerning participants’ lived experiences. RESULTS: In total, 31 participants have participated in 28 interviews. Three themes were identified, namely a) challenges in maintaining time orientation and day/night routines, b) irregularities and concerns of informal caregivers at night, and c) environmental cues which either support or disturb sleep. DISCUSSION: The results give insight into the experiences of PwD and IC at home concerning sleep. This guides the development of non-pharmacological interventions for supporting sleep, e.g., the importance of supporting day structure.
The usage of family audiobooks as a legacy for grieving minor children - an exploratory quantitative analysis
Authors: Ateş Gülay , Hesse Michaela , Cuhls Henning 
Published: June 2024

Abstract

Background
Terminally ill parents with minor children require comprehensive support. We find a broad range of interventions such as Dignity therapy or Life Review. There are several studies concerning the effects of biographical interventions in palliative care, but research on the usage of digital reminiscence is sparse. Since 2017, terminally ill parents have been offered the opportunity to record an audio book for their minor children. It also offers parents with a terminal illness the opportunity to use their own voice to influence how and what aspects of themselves they want to be remembered. This professionally supported, voluntary service is free of charge and unique in Germany. The objective of this study was to provide novel insights into the satisfaction with and use of the family audiobook, as well as the effects on children, by surveying the terminally ill parent and their related persons.
Methods
A survey was conducted online among terminally ill parents and their related persons, who were identified and contacted through the Family Audiobook Association in Germany. The anonymous online survey was accessible between September 2023 and November 2023. A descriptive analysis of the quantitative data was conducted using the statistical software package SPSS.
Results
186 respondents, 95 terminally ill parents and 91 related persons, provided responses to the online survey. Almost all terminally ill parents felt eased to have recorded a family audio book. The two groups exhibited differences in the manner in which they used and listened to the family audiobook. The open answers provided insight into the emotional and situational context in which the audiobook was being used. While some children are observed listening to family audiobooks with their parents or friends, other children are not yet ready for this.
Conclusions
The audiobook offers terminally ill parents with minor children a valuable opportunity to tell their own biographical story, to offer support to the bereaved in remembering and to preserve the voice of the deceased for the children. In addition, this approach could help healthcare professionals to reduce the stress associated with providing end-of-life care for terminally ill parents with minor children.
Quality assessment of fish vaccine data in the Norwegian Veterinary Prescription Register (VetReg)

Published: June 2024

Abstract

Background
Vaccination of farmed salmonids has been an integral part of preventing infectious diseases in Norway’s aquaculture industry. The Norwegian government regulates the use of vaccines and there is a need to monitor vaccine usage for both regulatory and research purposes, at local and national scales. The Norwegian Veterinary Prescription Register (VetReg) is a national database that includes all prescriptions of medicines to animals dispensed by pharmacies and all medicines used for food producing animals by veterinarians. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the quality of fish vaccination data reported to VetReg in 2016–2022. We considered the following attributes: completeness, validity, and timeliness. For external validation, we compared the data in VetReg to wholesaler statistics.
Results
Pharmacies reported fish vaccines to VetReg in a variety of quantity units, including doses and volumes, which required us to harmonize the data to a single unit. Harmonization was not possible for nine percent of the records, which were mainly bath vaccines reported in doses. We identified specific issues that required manual editing of the units of 1 percent of the records. After exclusions, we validated individual variables such as product codes and location identifiers using external registers. Some variables, such as the ‘number of animals’, were inconsistent for 31 percent of the records. The coverage of vaccine data in VetReg ranged from 81 to 113 percent for the ten most sold vaccines in 2020–2022 as compared to wholesales statistics. For the timeliness, we found that 75 percent of the records were submitted within 25 days for all years.
Conclusions
Overall, we found that the fish vaccination data in VetReg was of sufficient quality to monitor injectable vaccine usage at hatcheries after 2020. We identified issues at the product level, with bath vaccines, and with single variables (number of animals, weight, and species). We recommend that quality can be improved by reporting all vaccines in volume rather than doses, reporting a single vaccine prescription per report, and including a deadline for pharmacies to report in the legislation.
