Displace Oil from a Hele-Shaw Cell
Authors: Fossati Ana B. , Yanina L. Roht , Alho Miriam M. , Irene Ippolito , Jacobo Silvia E. 
Published: January 2024

Introduction::
Oil spill incidents caused by human activities can cause major habitat damage
and pose serious threats to all living organisms living on and within sources of water and soil.
Finding a solution for oil spills is necessary to protect ecosystems, the environment, and health. Nanotechnology
seems to be an interesting tool in many applications, such as soil and water remediation
and oil recovery. Nanoparticles are a good alternative since they are not as expensive as chemicals
used to remove oil.

Objective::
The prime purpose of this research work was the comparison of the additional displacement
of sunflower oil from a single fracture using ferrofluids prepared with bare and novel covalent
functionalized magnetic nanoparticles. Experiences were performed at constant nanoparticle concentration
and variable flow rate and at constant flow rate and variable nanoparticle concentration. The
novel ferrofluid stability and its recovery properties related to a low-cost process were explored.

Methods::
Tests were carried out by image analysis. Stable ferrofluids were prepared using magnetic
nanoparticles (MNPs) and novel covalent functionalized magnetic nanoparticles (MSMs). Their ability
to displace the residual oil in a single fracture model previously invaded by an aqueous brine solution
was tested. A flow channel of a single fracture by a typical transparent Hele-Shaw cell with 12% of its
area covered by a random distribution of obstacles was modeled. Oil recovery was performed at three
different flow rates: 0.36, 1.80, and 3.60 mL min-1, using relatively low ferrofluid concentrations
(0.0125 wt%). Oil recovery was also carried out with MSM ferrofluid at a constant flow rate of 1.80
and 3.60 mL min-1 at different nanoparticle concentrations (0.00625, 0.0125, and 0.025 wt%).

Results::
Ferrofluids prepared with MSMs were more effective for oil recovery than those prepared
with bare nanoparticles due to their surfactant behavior for all flows studied here. A 7.86% extra
percentage of oil was removed after brine flooding. Oil recovery using MSM ferrofluid at a constant
flow rate of 1.80 and 3.60 mL min-1 increased linearly with nanoparticle concentration. Magnetic
nanoparticles can be efficiently recovered and reused in at least three oil displacements for the fracture
model used as covalent functionalization promotes ferrofluids' stability.

Conclusion::
The characteristics of the MSM amphiphilic novel coating cause the nanoparticles to be
attracted to both water and oil, enhancing oil displacement. These results indicate that this novel
material, whose structure stability is related to the covalent bonding of organic coating, can be considered
for remediation and oil recovery in fractured media
Cavity Disinfection with Natural Agents and their Efficacy: A Review on
Recent Literature
Authors: Dey Sreejeeta , Deshmukh Seema 
Published: January 2024

Abstract:
The success of a dental restoration can be altered by the amount of residual bacteria
present under the cavity which over time cause deterioration of adhesive cement by microleakage
or secondary caries. Cavity disinfectant application on the cavity walls performs a cleansing action
to decrease the bacterial load and improve the longevity of restorations. Although a wide
variety of such chemical disinfectants have been in use, their cytotoxic effects have led to the
increasing popularity of natural agents. These materials possess antimicrobial, antioxidant and
anti-inflammatory properties, which effectively disinfect cavity walls while, at the same time,
being cheaper, less toxic, and more patient-friendly.

:
Some of these agents have also been proven to improve the bond strength of resin to dentin by
preventing collagen degradation and MMP inhibition. Propolis, aloe vera, chitosan, green tea,
liquorice etc., are derived from parts of plants or animals and have been tested to be efficacious
and, in some cases, superior to chemical alternatives without any erosive effect on dentin.

:
Although there is a lack of enough In vivo evidence to advocate the use of these products as an
adjunct in dental therapy, recent studies have yielded promising results, which increases the scope
for future clinical research. This review aims to highlight the properties and effectiveness of a
few of such natural agents as potential cavity disinfectants.
Recent Advances in Therapeutic Approaches Against Ebola Virus Infection
Authors: Soni Molisha , Tulsian Kartik , Barot Parv , Vyas Vivek Kumar 
Published: January 2024

Background:
Ebola virus (EBOV) is a genus of negative-strand RNA viruses
belonging to the family Filoviradae that was first described in 1976 in the present-day
Democratic Republic of the Congo. It has intermittently affected substantial human populations
in West Africa and presents itself as a global health menace due to the high mortality
rate of patients, high transmission rate, difficult patient management, and the emergence
of complicated autoimmune disease-like conditions post-infection.

Objective:
EBOV or other EBOV-like species as a biochemical weapon pose a significant
risk; hence, the need to develop both prophylactic and therapeutic medications to combat
the virus is unquestionable.

Methods:
In this review work, we have compiled the literature pertaining to transmission,
pathogenesis, immune response, and diagnosis of EBOV infection. We included detailed
structural details of EBOV along with all the available therapeutics against EBOV disease.
We have also highlighted current developments and recent advances in therapeutic approaches
against Ebola virus disease (EVD).

Discussion:
The development of preventive vaccines against the virus is proving to be a
successful effort as of now; however, problems concerning logistics, product stability, multi-
dosing, and patient tracking are prominent in West Africa. Monoclonal antibodies that
target EBOV proteins have also been developed and approved in the clinic; however, no
small drug molecules that target these viral proteins have cleared clinical trials. An understanding
of clinically approved vaccines and their shortcomings also serves an important
purpose for researchers in vaccine design in choosing the right vector, antigen, and particular
physicochemical properties that are critical for the vaccine’s success against the virus
across the world.

Conclusion:
Our work brings together a comprehensive review of all available prophylactic
and therapeutic medications developed and under development against the EBOV, which will
serve as a guide for researchers in pursuing the most promising drug discovery strategies
against the EBOV and also explore novel mechanisms of fighting against EBOV infection.
Affective and Cognitive Impairments in Rodent Models of Diabetes
Authors: Palazzo Enza , Marabese Ida , Boccella Serena , Belardo Carmela , Pierretti Gorizio , Maione Sabatino 
Published: January 2024

Abstract:
Diabetes and related acute and long-term complications have a profound impact on cognitive,
emotional, and social behavior, suggesting that the central nervous system (CNS) is a crucial substrate
for diabetic complications. When anxiety, depression, and cognitive deficits occur in diabetic
patients, the symptoms and complications related to the disease worsen, contributing to lower quality
of life while increasing health care costs and mortality. Experimental models of diabetes in rodents are
a fundamental and valuable tool for improving our understanding of the mechanisms underlying the
close and reciprocal link between diabetes and CNS alterations, including the development of affective
and cognitive disorders. Such models must reproduce the different components of this pathological
condition in humans and, therefore, must be associated with affective and cognitive behavioral alterations.
Beyond tight glycemic control, there are currently no specific therapies for neuropsychiatric
comorbidities associated with diabetes; animal models are, therefore, essential for the development of
adequate therapies. To our knowledge, there is currently no review article that summarizes changes in
affective and cognitive behavior in the most common models of diabetes in rodents. Therefore, in this
review, we have reported the main evidence on the alterations of affective and cognitive behavior in
the different models of diabetes in rodents, the main mechanisms underlying these comorbidities, and
the applicable therapeutic strategy.

Evaluation of Chinese HIV Mobile Apps by Researchers and Patients With HIV: Quality Evaluation Study
Authors: Liu Peng , Wang Lingmeng , Wang Fuzhi 
Published: January 2024

Background
Against the backdrop of globalization, China remains one of the most heavily burdened countries in Asia with regard to AIDS. However, many high-risk groups and patients affected by AIDS may be less likely to actively seek care from medical institutions because of fear of experiencing shame or discrimination. Mobile apps provide a promising avenue for supporting the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of AIDS. However, a comprehensive systematic evaluation of these mobile apps’ functionality and quality has not been conducted yet.

Objective
This study aims to identify the available mobile apps for AIDS in China, assess and discuss the functional features and quality of these Chinese AIDS mobile apps, and offer decision support for patients and clinical practitioners in accessing high-quality AIDS mobile apps. Furthermore, based on the evaluation results, recommendations for improvement will be provided.

Methods
A systematic search was conducted on the Qimai app data platform, the Aladdin WeChat applet data platform, and WeChat to identify mobile apps related to AIDS. A snowball sampling method was used to supplement the potentially overlooked apps. The selected mobile apps underwent a rigorous screening process based on unified criteria. Subsequently, assessments were independently undertaken by 3 separate researchers and 2 patients with HIV, using both the Mobile App Rating Scale (MARS) and the User Mobile App Rating Scale (uMARS). Quantitative interpretations of the data were facilitated by the MedCalc statistical software (version 20.217, MedCalc Software).

Results
A total of 2901 AIDS mobile apps were included in the study, with 2897 identified through information retrieval and an additional 4 added via snowball sampling. After a rigorous selection process, 21 apps were determined to be usable. Among them, the Hong Feng Wan app achieved the highest combined average score, calculated based on the MARS (3.96, SD 0.33) and uMARS (4.47, SD 0.26). Overall, there was no significant correlation between MARS and uMARS (rapp quality total score=0.41; P=.07; rsubjective quality=0.39; P=.08). A notable issue was the widespread lack of user privacy protection, with only 24% (5/21) of the apps offering this feature.

Conclusions
The number of available Chinese AIDS mobile apps is limited, with WeChat applets dominating the market. Nonetheless, the performance of WeChat mini-apps is generally inferior to that of independent apps, and there may be significant discrepancies between assessments conducted by researchers and those provided by genuine end users, emphasizing the necessity of involving real users in the development and evaluation of HIV mobile apps. In addition, developers of these Chinese HIV mobile apps need to devote attention to improving privacy protection mechanisms, in addition to considering the evaluations of researchers and real users. This will help attract more users and increase user loyalty.

The Effect of Prepayment Contract Frames and Feedback on Budgetary Slack: An Experimental Investigation
Authors: Rohma Frida Fanani , Anita Nur 
Published: January 2024

Introduction/Main Objectives: This research investigates the effect of prepayment contract frames and feedback incentives in mitigating budgetary slack. Background Problems: Clawback is an incentive scheme based on the endowment concept that has recently drawn researchers’ concerns. The literature suggests emphasizing the endowment and loss aversion concepts. This research examines these two concepts with one test model. Novelty: This research presents the preliminary manipulation role of hybrid clawback as one of the prepayment contract frames that are smoother and without penalty provisions. This study also examines the interaction between the concept of endowment and loss aversion in one test model. Research Methods: This research applied a field experiment with a 3 × 2 between-subject design. Finding/Results: This research found that prepayment contract frames require motivation from an adequate formal control system through frequent feedback to mitigate the slack. The findings prove that the capability of prepayment contract frames to minimize slack would be more effective after the frequency of the feedback has been moderated. Conclusion: The hybrid clawback could be a smoother alternative compensation scheme that is just as effective as a simple clawback, but without any penalty provisions. The effectiveness of a low feedback frequency could be increased to equal the efficacy of a high feedback frequency when assisted by prepayment contract frames.
Customer Geographic Clustering and Revenue Recognition: Evidence from China
Authors: Yang Yulong , Zhao Jingran , Zou Gaofeng 
Published: January 2024

ABSTRACT
Although theoretical studies suggest that customers may have an impact on a supplier firm’s accounting practices, empirical evidence remains limited and inconclusive. We posit that geographic clustering increases the likelihood of communication between customers and that managers who perceive this likelihood will make more disciplined revenue reporting decisions. Using major customer data from China, we find that firms with more geographically clustered customers report less absolute discretionary revenue. This result is more pronounced when the supplier’s customers are more likely to communicate with each other, when their demand for information is stronger, when supplier-customer information asymmetry is more severe, and when the supplier has less bargaining power. The main results survive after addressing endogeneity concerns and a serial of other robustness tests. Our findings offer insight into how the relationship between customers relates to earnings quality and we extend the literature on corporate geographic characteristics.

Published: January 2024

OBJECTIVE
Determining the cause of severe insulin resistance and early-onset diabetes in the case of a young woman in which a wide range of differential diagnoses did not apply.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS
Diagnostic workup including medical history, physical examination, specialist consultations, imaging methods, laboratory assessment, and genetic testing carried out by next-generation panel sequencing.

RESULTS
After ruling out several differential diagnoses, genetic testing revealed a previously unknown homozygous variant within the canonical splice site of intron 4 in the WRN gene classified as pathogenic. Thus, although not all cardinal clinical criteria according to existing guidelines had been met, the phenotype of our patient was attributed to Werner syndrome (WS), an autosomal-recessive inherited progeroid syndrome.

CONCLUSIONS
WS, although rare, must be considered as a differential diagnosis in cases of severe insulin resistance. Moreover, recognized clinical criteria of WS may not lead to diagnosis in all cases.

Published: January 2024

Indonesia plans to be the number one global halal hub that need support of massive Islamic entrepreneurial marketing capabilities. This study aims to assess Islamic entrepreneurial marketing orientation among university students. The sample used was students of the Faculty of Economics and Islamic Business UIN Prof. K.H. Saifuddin Zuhri Purwokerto who had participated in a business internship program (PMBM). Data were collected using questionnaire instruments and analyzed using Confirmatory Factor Analysis technique. The results revealed that Islamic entrepreneurial marketing orientation proved to be a multidimensional construct consisting of factors such as: Activeness, Opportunity orientation, Risk orientation, Innovation orientation, Customer orientation, Value orientation, Committed and Shari'ah conformance. The results showed that the dimensions of Islamic entrepreneurial marketing orientation of respondents were generally quite good. This can be seen from the percentages that are above the 70% criterion). As for the dimensions that are still low are proactiveness (64%) and risk orientation (59%). This study provides novelty by finding that the implementation of sharia conformance is proven to be important in building Islamic entrepreneurial marketing orientation among Islamic students in Islamic university. However, other factors need to be emphasized more in the development of the programme since the results show that other factors are stronger in forming the students orientation in Islamic entrepreneurial marketing. Future research can be conducted by developing similar research on Islamic students in other region and in privat university.

Authors: ÖZCAN Özge , İVRENDİ Asiye 
Published: January 2024

Purpose: Socio-dramatic play is important for supporting self-regulation skills in early childhood, and the complexity level of socio-dramatic play may increase the need for self-regulation skills. This study examined the relationship between the self-regulation skills of 60- to 86-month-old preschoolers and the complexity of socio-dramatic play better to understand the link between socio-dramatic play and self-regulation skills.
Methodology: This study was designed as associational research to examine whether self-regulation skills based on teachers' and mothers' views relate to socio-dramatic play's aspects and complexity levels. The participants consisted of 51 preschool children attending two public schools in Turkey. Children's self-regulation skills (attention, working memory, and inhibitory control) were measured using self-regulation scales with teacher and mother forms. The socio-dramatic play was assessed using an observational tool consisting of three aspects (symbolic agent, symbolic substitution, and symbolic complexity).
Findings: Findings revealed that self-regulation skills (inhibitory control and attention) showed a statistically significant difference in favor of children who engaged in sociodramatic play with high symbolic complexity. The working memory did not differ significantly regarding symbolic complexity. The teacher and mother reports revealed that self-regulation skills' attention, working memory, and inhibitory control dimensions did not relate to the aspects of symbolic agent and symbolic substitution.
Highlights: These findings indicate that only the symbolic complexity aspect of socio-dramatic play is positively associated with preschoolers' self-regulation skills (inhibitory control and attention). Results were discussed concerning the literature on socio-dramatic play and self-regulation.
