Published: March 2024

Abstract
Gait analysis is crucial for understanding the biomechanical complexities of osteoarthritis and Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA). Traditional methods lack the comprehensive data needed for effective analysis. Integrating Internet of Things (IoT) technologies offers a promising solution to enhance gait analysis by utilizing multiple sensors to capture various aspects of movement dynamics. This study aims to innovate gait analysis for individuals with osteoarthritis by employing IoT technologies. The primary objective is to integrate data from 9-axis Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) sensors, Force-Sensitive Resistor (FSR) sensors, and Electromyography (EMG) sensors to provide a detailed analysis of gait dynamics. By doing so, the study seeks to uncover intricate connections between kinematics, ground response forces, and muscle exertion during walking. The study utilizes IMU sensors to capture three-dimensional movement, FSR sensors to measure ground response forces, and EMG sensors to record muscle activation patterns. Advanced algorithms are employed to accompany and integrate the data from these sensors. Actors undergo gait analysis under various conditions, including normal walking and different perturbations, to simulate real-world scenarios. The integration of data from multiple sensors and the application of advanced algorithms reveals detailed insights into the biomechanical differences associated with osteoarthritis and THA. The analysis demonstrates the effectiveness of IoT-based gait analysis in providing valuable perceptivity into musculoskeletal conditions. The proposed methodology showcases the potential of IoT-based gait analysis in advancing our understanding of musculoskeletal conditions and enhancing patient care. By uncovering intricate connections between kinematics, ground response forces, and muscle exertion, this approach provides a foundation for further development of effective interventions and rehabilitative strategies.
Climate change and hydropower resilience in Nepal: an integrated modeling approach in the Madi River Basin
Authors: Pokharel Pragya , Regmi Ram Krishna 
Published: March 2024

ABSTRACT

Responding to Nepal's hydropower sector's vulnerability to climate change, this study investigates its impact on energy security, focusing on the Madi River Basin's river systems. This study conducted a rigorous analysis of the basin's historical and future hydroclimatic trends, using the linear scaling method to correct inherent biases in 13 GCMs, resulting in the selection of 6 BCMs with above-satisfactory performance. Future projections reveal an increase in annual precipitation with a higher increment in SSP585 by the end of the century, and a temperature rise ranging from 1.8 to 3.5 °C from the baseline in the far future under moderate- to high-emission scenarios. These hydroclimatic projections are then forced into the calibrated soil and water assessment tool (SWAT) model with very good performance (both R2 and NSE greater than 0.8). The streamflow projection demonstrates an overall increasing trend, marked by significant flow reduction in early months and pronounced monsoon peaks. The analysis of three distinct hydropower projects reveals unique challenges and opportunities, underscoring the heterogeneous nature of projects and the need for location-specific planning and strategic management. This study provides crucial insights for sustainable development in renewable energy, laying the foundation for future research and policy in similar hydroclimatic settings.
Twenty-four-month Progression-free Survival in HER2-amplified Advanced Gastric Cancer with Brain Metastases after Trastuzumab Deruxtecan Treatment: A Case Report and Literature Review
Authors: Zhang Haibo , Xu Min 
Published: March 2024

Background:
Trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) has shown promising outcomes as a second
or subsequent-line treatment for human epidermal growth factor-2 (HER2)-positive advanced
gastric or gastroesophageal junction cancer.

Case Presentation:
We reported a 49-year-old male patient with stage IV HER2-amplified gastric
cancer. Despite extensive pretreatments, including first-line trastuzumab plus FOLFOX, second--
line trastuzumab plus FOLFOX, followed by traditional Chinese medicine, third-line nivolumab
plus trastuzumab, fourth-line pyrotinib plus paclitaxel and five hepatic arterial chemoembolization
procedures, and fifth-line pembrolizumab plus nab-paclitaxel and thoracic radiotherapy, the patient
experienced disease progression. In April 2021, T-DXd was initiated as the sixth-line therapy
in combination with radiotherapy for brain metastases. After one treatment cycle, the patient
achieved a partial response. T-DXd was discontinued in August 2022 due to recurrent anemia attributed
to cardiac stenosis-related bleeding.

Conclusion:
The condition of the patient remained stable until May 2023, indicating a progression-
free survival of over 24 months. This case suggests that T-DXd may offer long-term clinical
benefits in patients with HER2-amplified advanced gastric cancer with brain metastases.

Pregnancy: A Post-mortem Study based on Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Authors: Yuan Leilei , Lv Baohua , Wang Han , Wang Zhaohua , Shang Hua , Li Xiujuan , Liang Lisha , Lin Xiangtao 
Published: March 2024

Background:
Fat-suppressed (FS) T2-weighed turbo spin-echo (TSE) sequence was used to detect the signal of the thymus and the characteristics of the thymus
location, measure the two-dimensional diameter at specific levels, and analyze the association with gestational weeks.

Methods:
This study involved 51 fetal specimens. Post-mortem MRI scanning was implemented with a 3.0-T MRI system. T2-weighted imaging (T2WI)
features of the thymus in fetuses were quantitatively investigated with DICOM images. Statistical analysis was done with the Chi-Square test, oneway
ANOVA, and Student’s t-test.

Results:
There was heterogeneity in the morphology of the fetal thymus. FS T2-weighted TSE sequence clearly exhibited the microstructure of the fetal
thymus. The thymus extensively showed a lobulated appearance. The central signal is much higher than the peripheral signal in each lobule. In
addition, FS-T2WI images can clearly show the interlobular septum, which is filled with fluid and presents a linear high signal. The signal intensity
of fetal thymus increased with gestational weeks. The diameter measured in a particular plane was highly correlated with gestational week.

Conclusion:
FS T2-weighted TSE sequence provides high-resolution images of the fetal thymus. The change in signal intensity, location, and two-dimensional
diameter in a specific plane can be used as a research direction for the fetal thymus.

Pathomorphology
Authors: Li Xin , Gao Zhimei , Zhu Zhenlong , Yang Yonghui , Liu Hao , Li Yan , Jiao Qi , You Dianping , Li Shujing 
Published: March 2024

Background:
Interstitial lung abnormalities (ILA) are associated with further disease progression, increased mortality risk, and decline in lung function in the
elderly, which deserves enough attention.

Objective:
The objective of this study was to quantify the extent of interstitial lung abnormalities (ILA) in a non-smoking asymptomatic urban cohort in China
using low-dose CT (LDCT) and to analyze the age-related pathological changes.

Methods:
We retrospectively analyzed clinical data and chest LDCT images from a cohort of 733 subjects who were categorized into 3 groups: 18–39, 40-59,
and ≥60 years old according to age. Furthermore, we selected 40 cases of wax-embedded lung tissue blocks archived after pulmonary bullectomy
and the same age groups were categorized. Four representative CT signs of ILA, including interlobular septal thickening (ILST), intralobular
interstitial thickening (ILIT), ground-glass opacity (GGO), and reticular shadow (RS), were semi-quantified based on the percentage of the affected
area. The scores and distribution of four CT signs of ILA were compared between different sex and age groups. The age-related pathological
changes were analyzed.

Results:
The ILA findings were found predominantly in the lower lobes and the subpleural region. The semi-quantitative scores of four CT signs in all
subjects under 40 were 0. However, in subjects over 40 years old, the scores gradually increased with age, although most of them remained low.
The size of the alveoli increased, the number of alveoli decreased, the alveolar septum became thinner, and the number of ATII cells increased with
age. A statistically significant difference was observed among the different age groups (χ2=50.624, P=0.033; χ2=80.000, P=0.043; χ2=33.833,
P=0.000; χ2=13.525, P=0.031). The macrophage population and the percentage of collagen fibers in the alveolar septum increased, while the
percentage of elastic fibers decreased with age. There was no significant difference among the different age groups (χ2=19.817, P=0.506;
χ2=52.419, P=0. 682; χ2=54.868, P=0.518).

Conclusion:
When the four CT signs mentioned above are in the upper central area, and the score has a medium or high score, it is crucial to determine the
underlying pathological causes. ILA may be the result of chronic lung injury.

Authors: Wang Zhanhui , Duan Wenlong , Long Mengzhao , Wang Aimin , Li Xiaojun 
Published: March 2024

Background:
With the continuous application of API 5L X100 high-strength
grade steel pipeline and the development trend of increasing pipeline diameter and design
pressure in China's long natural gas and petroleum pipeline, API 5L X100 high-strength
grade steel pipeline steel is bound to become the aorta in long-distance pipeline construction
in the future. Studying the failure pressure of API 5L X100 high-strength grade steel
pipeline has high economic and social benefits.

Objective:
Exploring the corrosion mechanism of the two single corroded pipeline models
with outer defect and inner defect.

Methods:
Using ANSYS Workbench 15.0 software to explore the two single corroded
pipeline models with outer defect and inner defect and the influence of geometric parameters
such as defect depth, defect length, defect width, etc., on the maximum equivalent
stress and failure pressure investigated. Based on the finite element analysis database, the
failure pressures of two single corroded pipeline models were fitted using Matlab software
and the fitting formulas.

Results:
In the corrosion defect area of the pipeline, stress concentration occurs; Far away
from the corrosion defect area, the stress distribution is uniform. For the pipeline model
with outer defect and inner defect, as the defect depth and length increases, failure pressure
shows a decreasing trend and is almost unaffected by defect width; As the ratio of diameter
to thickness increases, failure pressure shows a decreasing trend; By fitting failure pressure
formula of the pipeline models with outer defect and inner defect, a multivariate fitting
function formula of failure pressure is obtained, with high fitting exactitude.

Conclusion:
The conclusion obtained have certain guiding values for the normal and stable
operation of natural gas and petroleum transportation pipelines.
Selective Extraction of Lithium from Spent-NMC Battery Cathodes
Using Sodium Hydroxide as a Leaching Agent at Elevated
Temperatures
Authors: Zulkipli Rohiman Ahmad , Perdana Indra , Aprilianto Doni Riski , Rahmawati Tri , Rochmadi  
Published: March 2024

Introduction:
The demand for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) is rapidly increasing
due to the growth of the electronics and electric vehicle industries. Even though the batteries
are rechargeable, their storage capacity decreases, and they eventually end up being
wasted. Recycling the spent LIBs is necessary to reduce the environmental impact and utilize
the precious metals contained in the waste

Methods:
The present work focuses on the selective recovery of lithium from the cathodes
of spent NMC batteries through the hydrometallurgical process using a sodium hydroxide
solution. The leaching process was carried out in 2 M and 4 M NaOH concentrations for
120 minutes at high pressure and at temperatures of 398.15 K, 423.15 K, 448.15 K, and
473.15 K. Experimental results showed that 56.53% of lithium could be recovered with
nearly 100% selectivity under the optimum leaching conditions of 473.15 K and 4 M
NaOH. The release of lithium ions was due to a combination of sodium adsorption, ion
exchange, and impregnation mechanisms.

Result:
Calculation results showed that the activation energy of the lithium leaching process
was 2.1990×104 J/mol, the reaction was endothermic with enthalpy and entropy at
standard conditions (298.15 K) of 4.8936×105 J/mol and 1.4421×103 J/mol/K, respectively.

Conclusion:
The present work also suggested that total lithium recovery can be increased
through a series of leaching processes.

Background
The prevalence of depression and anxiety has increased in recent years, with many individuals having trouble accessing mental health support. Smartphones have become an integral part of modern life, with apps offering new ways to deliver evidence-based self-help strategies to cope with common mental health symptoms. However, most of them do not have empirical evidence of their overall effectiveness or the effectiveness of their components, which could pose a risk for users.

Objective
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the modules of evaluation, psychoeducation, and emotional regulation strategies in a multiplatform self-help mental health mobile app in the Maule region of Chile.

Methods
A sample of 196 adults will be selected, who will be randomly assigned to different components of the app for a fixed period to assess its ability to reduce symptomatology.

Results
The trial is not yet recruiting and is expected to end in October 2024. The first results are expected in April 2024.

Conclusions
This is the first study in Chile to develop and test the effectiveness of a mobile app to manage anxiety and depression symptoms in adults. The intervention proposed is based on evidence suggesting that the internet or remote intervention tools and self-management of prevalent symptomatology could be the future of mental health care systems in the digital era. If the effects of the intervention are positive, wide implementation in Chile and other Spanish-speaking countries could be possible in the future.

Лексичні одиниці мікросистеми «рослини» у фольклорних текстах із Західного Полісся
Authors: Омельковець Руслана , Свірса Діана 
Published: March 2024

In linguistics, lexical semantics is one of the fundamental fields of study. The article highlights the issue of folkloristics in the context of lexical semantics, which is always relevant for studies. Studying the language of folklore is essential for understanding the traditional culture of the people and preserving the values of the nation embedded in rites, beliefs, and mythological images.
Linguistic studies of the motivational productivity of lexical groups or semantic fields are closely related to texts (folklore, folk poetry, spell texts). Lexical units of “plants” microsystem in folklore texts from western Polissia are of great linguistic importance in this context.
The internal form of many plants' names can be traced quite clearly, as we can see when elucidating the motivation of such phytonomens as maivka, molodylnyk, nekhvoroshch, vinychchia, serporiznyk, durmanyk, zaiacha kapusta (rabbit cabbage). Unfortunately, we cannot always establish the motivation for a particular name of a plant, some of them are influenced by folk etymology, as in the case of aiir (derived from the Turkish name ağir).
The study of motivational characteristics of botanical vocabulary is combined with the field of extra-linguistic semantics (mythological images, magical actions, ritual practices, symbolic images), which brings motivational models into the field of culture. Phytonyms often appear in folklore texts and manifest a special symbolic meaning in their structure, such as widow's grass, hare's ears, Tatar potion, sabers, and vydiuk.
In many cases, the folk-creative basis of the motivation of plant names is found outside the folklore text, since we can only guess about the existence of such a text (for instance, the origin of the names of such plants as bozhe derevo (the God's tree), artemizida, etc.).
Depending on the functional role, the same phytonym can have different meanings, e.g. krovavnyk is equally applicable to yarrow and St. John's wort. And medicinal marigolds, yellow pitcher plants, iron sedum, Asian honeysuckle, marsh marigolds, erect foxgloves, and celandine have the popular common name zhovtets (buttercup).
The cultural, historical, and ethnographic features of the Ukrainians, their traditions, and worldview have a significant influence on the semantic features of lexical folklorisms.
