Circular n,m-rung orthopair fuzzy sets and their applications in multicriteria decision-making
Authors: Alshammari Ibtesam , Ibrahim Hariwan Z. 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
The circular Pythagorean fuzzy set is an expansion of the circular intuitionistic fuzzy set (CIFS), in which each component is represented by a circle. Nevertheless, even though CIFS improves the intuitionistic fuzzy set representation, it is still restricted to the inflexible intuitionistic fuzzy interpretation triangle (IFIT) space, where the square sum of membership and nonmembership in a circular Pythagorean fuzzy environment and the sum of membership and nonmembership in a circular intuitionistic fuzzy environment cannot exceed one. To overcome this restriction, we provide a fresh extension of the CIFS called the circular n,m-rung orthopair fuzzy set (Cn,m-ROFS), which allows the IFIT region to be expanded or contracted while maintaining the features of CIFS. Consequently, decision makers can assess items over a wider and more flexible range when using a Cn,m-ROFS, allowing for the making of more delicate decisions. In addition, we define several basic algebraic and arithmetic operations on Cn,m-ROFS, such as intersection, union, multiplication, addition, and scalar multiplication, and we discuss their key characteristics together with some of the known relations over Cn,m-ROFS. In addition, we present and study the new circular n,m-rung orthopair fuzzy weighted average/geometric aggregation operators and their properties. Further, a strategy for resolving multicriteria decision-making problems in a Cn,m-ROF environment is provided. The suggested strategy is tested on two situations: the best teacher selection problem and the best school selection problem. To confirm and illustrate the efficacy of the suggested methodology, a comparative analysis with the intuitionistic fuzzy weighted average, intuitionistic fuzzy weighted geometric, q-rung orthopair fuzzy weighted averaging, q-rung orthopair fuzzy geometric averaging, circular

Optimal precision of coarse structural nested mean models to estimate the effect of initiating ART in early and acute HIV infection
Authors: Lok Judith J. 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
Time-dependent coarse structural nested mean models (coarse SNMMs) were developed to estimate treatment effects from longitudinal observational data. Coarse SNMMs estimate the combined effect of multiple treatment dosages and are thus useful to estimate the effect of treatments that are initiated and then never stopped. Coarse SNMMs lead to a large class of estimators, with widely varying estimates and standard errors. To optimize precision, we derive an explicit solution for the optimal coarse SNMM estimator. We apply our methods by estimating how the effect on immune reconstitution of initiating 1 year of ART depends on the time between HIV infection and ART initiation, in the early stages of HIV infection. The CDC and the WHO are encouraging HIV testing, leading to earlier HIV diagnoses. Thus, more treatment decisions need to be made in early and acute infection. However, evidence is lacking about the clinical benefits of initiating ART in early and acute HIV infection, with guidelines developed mostly from analyzing patients with chronic infection. In the simulations and our motivating HIV application, naive coarse SNMM estimators render useless inference, whereas our new fitting methods render informative analyses. We thus hope that this article leads to broader applicability of SNMMs.
Characteristics of tree hollows used by Nilgiri marten Martes gwatkinsii in the Western Ghats, India
Authors: Balakrishnan Peroth 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
Tree hollows are a critical resource for many wildlife taxa, thus declining tree hollow availability across forest ecosystems worldwide presents a critical conservation challenge. In this note, the characteristics of trees and tree hollows used by the Nilgiri marten, a threatened small carnivore endemic to the Western Ghats of India were described. Nilgiri martens were observed on 11 occasions using eight species of hollow trees, including two red listed tree species. Hollows were typically located on tree trunks in the forest subcanopy below 10 m. Trees containing hollows had an average height of 27.44 ± 5.23 m (range: 20–38 m) and an average GBH of 3.43 ± 0.49 m (range: 2.80–4.10 m). Although limited in number, these observations suggest that large hollow trees could be important to Nilgiri marten life history, similar to marten species elsewhere. Policies that target retention of such trees in mid-elevation evergreen and shola forests may benefit long-term conservation of martens and other hollow-using wildlife in India.
Neural network-based analysis algorithm on Mueller matrix data of spectroscopic ellipsometry for the structure evaluation of nanogratings with various optical constants

Published: February 2025

Abstract
Accurate and fast characterization of nanostructures using spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE) is required in both industrial and research fields. However, conventional methods used in SE data analysis often face challenges in balancing accuracy and speed, especially for the in situ monitoring on complex nanostructures. Additionally, optical constants are so crucial for accurately predicting structural parameters since SE data were strongly related to them. This study proposes a three-step algorithm designed for fast and accurate extraction of structural parameters from SE measurements. The method utilizes three neural networks, each trained on simulation data, to obtain optical constants and progressively refine the prediction on structural parameters at each step. When tested on both simulation and measurement data on the fabricated 1D SiO2 nanograting specimen, the algorithm demonstrated both high accuracy and fast analysis speed, with average mean absolute error (MAE) of 0.103 nm and analysis speed of 132 ms. Also, the proposed algorithm shows more flexibility in accounting for any change of optical constants to serve as a more efficient solution in the real-time monitoring.

Published: February 2025

Abstract
Soil-borne plant pathogens infect plants through soil inoculum, leading to plant diseases that can drastically reduce crop yield and even be associated with illnesses in humans and animals. This research focused on developing an environmentally friendly, affordable, and non-toxic antifungal agent to combat these diseases caused by soil-borne fungi. Magnesium oxide (MgO) nanoparticles, known for their antifungal properties, were incorporated into a pyrolyzed carbon matrix derived from coconut coir dust (Mg-PCC). During the in situ synthesis, clean, dry coconut coir was treated with magnesium nitrate (Mg(NO3)2) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH), followed by pyrolysis at 450 °C for 1 h. The Mg-PCC sample was characterized using powder X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. The antifungal efficacy of Mg-PCC was tested at three different concentrations against the soil-borne fungi Ganoderma sp., Mucor fusiformis, and Aspergillus niger using a mycelial growth inhibition assay. At a concentration of 10,000 μg/ml, Mg-PCC demonstrated the highest antifungal activity. Further evaluation in soil medium revealed that an optimal dosage of 20 mg of Mg-PCC per 1 g of soil effectively inhibits fungal growth. These findings suggest that Mg-PCC is a potent antifungal agent against soil-borne fungi.
Mucosal Coverage of Deeply Protruded Implant in The Maxillary Sinus: A Case Report
Authors: Park Won-Bae , Lin Joshua , Park Wonhee , Han Ji-Young , Kang Philip 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
Protrusion of the dental implant into the maxillary sinus is known to cause thickening of the sinus mucosa and bacterial sinusitis. However, there are many cases where protruded implants do not cause long-term complications clinically or radiologically. Questions arise as to whether the protruding implant was exposed or covered with sinus mucosa. In the present case, lateral sinus floor elevation was planned on the maxillary sinus adjacent to the deeply protruded (6.5 mm) implant #13. The protruding implant was scheduled for removal. During sinus floor elevation through a lateral sinus window, there was no damage or perforation of the elevated sinus mucosa around protruded implant, and the implant surface was visibly clean. This suggests that the protruding implant was actually covered with sinus mucosa and not exposed. Therefore, maxillary sinus augmentation can be performed without explantation or surface treatment of the protruding implant. Within the limitations of this case report, implants that are deeply protruded into the maxillary sinus can be covered with sinus mucosa.

Implementing the effect of geopolymer concrete pore solution pH in the standard rapid migration test NT Build 492 protocol
Authors: Pang Yu , Nguyen Quang Dieu , Castel Arnaud 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
This research investigates the impact of the pore solution pH values on chloride content at the colour change boundary determined according to the standard rapid migration test (NT Build 492), with a focus on alkali-activated materials, so-called geopolymer. The study investigates a range of geopolymer formulations using various proportions of ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS), fly ash, and calcined clay, alongside different activator concentrations, to examine their influence on the pH value of the pore solution. Findings from this study suggest that the pH value of the pore solution greatly influence in the chloride ion concentration at the colour change boundary, which should be accounted for in the calculation of the non-steady-state migration coefficients (Dnssm). It is noted that mixtures with higher GGBFS content exhibit higher pH values than mixtures containing fly ash or calcined clay, impacting the Dnssm. The results advocate for modifications to the standard NT Build 492 protocol to enhance its applicability and accuracy for geopolymer materials, emphasizing the importance of using revised Dnssm values calculated considering the unique properties of geopolymer concrete for more durability assessment.

Published: February 2025

Background:
Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is characterized by progressive injury to glomerular podocytes due to sustained mechanical stress within the glomerulus. Piezo proteins, acting as cellular mechanosensors, play a pivotal role in mechanotransduction by sensing mechanical forces and regulating intracellular ion flux. This study investigates the role of Piezo1 in the progression of DKD and its mechanistic involvement in podocyte injury.

Methods:
Podocyte-specific Piezo1 knockout mice were generated using the streptozotocin plus high-fat diet model of DKD. In vitro studies included the use of Piezo1 inhibitors to assess calcium influx, podocyte cytoskeletal rearrangement, and apoptosis under stiff matrix conditions. Additionally, nuclear factor of activated T cell cytoplasmic 1 (NFATc1) and transient receptor potential cation channel 6 (TRPC6) signaling pathways were explored to establish their role in Piezo1-mediated podocyte injury. Adeno-associated virus -TRPC6 was utilized to overexpress TRPC6 in podocyte-specific Piezo1 knockout mice to assess the in vivo interaction between Piezo1 and TRPC6.

Results:
Podocyte-specific deletion of Piezo1 significantly ameliorated the progression of DKD in diabetic mice. Inhibition of Piezo1 reduced calcium influx, cytoskeletal rearrangement, and podocyte apoptosis in vitro. Mechanistically, Piezo1 activation triggered a signaling loop involving NFATc1 and TRPC6, leading to increased calcium influx, perpetuating podocyte injury. TRPC6 overexpression in vivo counteracted the protective effects of Piezo1 deletion, confirming the critical role of the Piezo1/NFATc1/TRPC6 axis in DKD progression.

Conclusions:
Piezo1 plays a key mechanosensory role in podocyte injury during DKD progression by mediating calcium influx and activating the NFATc1/TRPC6 signaling pathway.
Ptprz Signaling, Tubule- and Macrophage-Mediated Kidney Injury, and Subsequent CKD
Authors: Weinmann-Menke Julia , Gonzalez-Sanchez Hilda M. , Iwata Yasunori , Meineck Myriam , Abassi Najla , Marini Federico , Granados-Contreras Francisco , Takakura Ayumi , Noda Masaharu , Kelley Vicki Rubin 
Published: February 2025

Background:
Macrophages and tubular epithelial cell interactions are integral in kidney ischemia-incited interstitial inflammation leading to acute kidney injury. Ischemia/reperfusion injury riggers tubular epithelial cells to express IL-34, a macrophage growth factor, that promotes acute kidney injury and subsequent chronic kidney disease. IL-34 engages the cognate receptor, c-FMS, expressed by macrophages, and the recently discovered Protein-Tyrosine Phosphatase ζ (Ptprz). Ptprz, binds to multiple ligands other than IL-34 that progressively increase their expression in kidneys after ischemia/reperfusion injury.

Methods:
We tested the hypothesis that signaling through Ptprz promotes macrophage-mediated acute kidney injury and subsequent chronic kidney disease, by comparing Ptprz knockout with wild-type mice after ischemia/reperfusion injury.

Results:
Ptprz was expressed by leukocytes and in tubular epithelial cells after ischemia/reperfusion injury in mice. Using Ptprz knockout mice we determined that during acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease kidney pathology, and loss of kidney function were ameliorated. Ptprz-dependent mechanisms mediated: (i) tubular epithelial cell expression of chemokines that fostered macrophage and T cell rich renal inflammation, and (ii) tubule injury and apoptosis, that resulted in the loss of tubules and interstitial fibrosis during chronic kidney disease . Mechanistically, Ptprz dependent tubule epithelial cells released mediators that:(i) promoted tubule cytotoxicity, and thereby, shortened tubule survival, and (ii) stimulated Ptprz expressing macrophages to generate mediators that induce kidney destruction. These findings are translational, as after ischemia reperfusion injury in human kidney transplants, PTPRZ and PTPRZ ligands were upregulated and expressed by the same cell populations as in mice. Moreover, PTPRZ levels in sera were elevated in kidney transplant patients.

Conclusions:
Intra-renal Ptprz-dependent macrophage and tubular epithelial cell mediated mechanisms promote acute kidney injury and subsequent chronic kidney disease.
Long-Term Trends in Microseismicity During Operational Shut-Ins at the Coso Geothermal Field, California
Authors: Holmgren Joanna M. , Kaven J. Ole , Oye Volker 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
Pausing injection and production can lead to induced seismicity in a variety of settings, with some of the largest events occurring during these so-called shut-ins. In geothermal fields, shut-ins are periodically conducted for the maintenance of wells and surface infrastructure, thereby offering recurring means of estimating stress changes in the subsurface that lead to increased seismicity rates. Here, we examine daily production and microseismicity data from the Coso geothermal field (CGF) in California between 1996 and 2010 to investigate the repetitive trends of operational shut-in microseismicity. Using 24 local seismic stations, we first analyze spatial and temporal trends of over 60,000 earthquakes with magnitudes between −0.4 and 3.8. We find that the northern region exhibits no significant seismicity changes during shut-ins, whereas the rest of the field experiences induced seismicity during almost every shut-in with an increasing intensity toward the southern and eastern portions of the field, possibly highlighting local differences in stress within the CGF. In addition, we cluster the seismicity using waveform cross-correlation, revealing several earthquake clusters primarily occurring during shut-in periods. These observations suggest that certain fracture and fault sections respond rapidly to changes in pore pressure and poroelastic stresses within the geothermal system, possibly highlighting main fluid pathways.
Providencia de Dios (Tratado de la inmortalidad del alma y Tratado de la divina providencia)
Authors: López Poza Sagrario 
Published: February 2025

Providencia de Dios, obra de madurez de Francisco de Quevedo (1580-1645), fue escrita en los años 1641-1642, mientras el escritor sufría prisión en el Convento Real de San Marcos de León. La obra se estructura en dos tratados (sobre la inmortalidad del alma, y sobre la providencia divina) que consideran los principales temas de la apologética del siglo XVII. Con esta obra Quevedo pretende demostrar que es un profesional capaz de acometer asuntos propios de la oratoria sagrada, diferentes a aquellos por los que es más conocido (de índole satírica y burlesca). Esta es la primera edición crítica de Providencia de Dios, con profusa anotación y precedida de un amplio y detallado estudio donde se contextualiza la obra, se analiza su estructura, los aspectos retóricos y estilísticos, la erudición, el desarrollo argumentativo, la transmisión textual, fuentes y filiación. Se acompaña de apéndices con detallada descripción de fuentes manuscritas e impresas, aparato crítico, índice de voces y conceptos anotados, bibliografía y abreviaturas.
