A Simple Normalized Analytical Model for Oil Production of SAGD Process and Its Applications in Athabasca Oil Sands
Authors: Wang Shengdong 
Published: January 2024

Summary
Since the late 1980s, when the Alberta Oil Sands Technology and Research Authority Underground Test Facility project first demonstrated the feasibility of the steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) technology, many commercial SAGD projects were brought online in Western Canada. Now, many of these projects have late-life SAGD wells approaching their ultimate SAGD recovery factors. Although these projects have demonstrated highly variable production performance, there is an opportunity to use the industry production data to find what they have in common and develop a normalized SAGD model.
For this paper, we collected oil production history from several leading SAGD projects with late-life production in the Athabasca oil sands area and confirmed the three stages in an SAGD project lifespan: chamber rising, chamber spreading, and chamber falling stages. By normalizing the field data, all SAGD projects converged to one type curve, regardless of reservoir quality and operating conditions. Based on this observation, a new simple normalized model is derived to model the bitumen production in a typical SAGD process for Athabasca oil sands.
The new model bridges the gap between the existing SAGD analytical model and conventional decline analysis and provides oil production forecasts based on the inputs for the five-component recovery factor method defined in the Canadian Oil and Gas Evaluation Handbook(Society of Petroleum Evaluation Engineers 2018). The model has been applied to one of the thermal projects to history match the field production. By running a Monte Carlo simulation, this model further demonstrates its capability to capture the uncertainty of the production forecast for the project at different stages of SAGD operation. In addition, by properly modifying the type curve of the analytical model, a similar workflow can be used to model cases with special reservoir quality or different operational limitations.

Abstract

DNA photocrosslinking reactions occur widely in biological systems and are often used as a valuable tool in molecular biology. Herein we report the sequence and temperature-dependent intrastrand photocrosslinking of single-stranded oligodeoxynucleotides bearing 5-fluoro-4-thiouridine (FSU). Our research findings indicate that FSU can photoreact with non-adjacent bases, specifically, it can react with distant thymine and cytosine residues in the chain forming fluorescent and non-fluorescent intrastrand crosslinks, respectively. In addition, partial photooxidation of FSU residue to 5-fluorouridine was also observed. The results of the study are significant in terms of the use of FSU-labeled oligonucleotide probes in the fluorescence-based detection of specific DNA sequences because the creation of a fluorescent intrastrand crosslink could produce a false signal. To overcome this problem, replacing thymidine with deoxyuridine in FSU-labeled oligonucleotide probe is proposed and tested.

Published: January 2024

Abstract
Ensuring the reliable operation of drilling risers in offshore oil and gas is heavily reliant on integrity inspections. This piece delves into the utilization of cutting-edge ultrasound technologies—specifically Phased Array and Time of Flight Diffraction (TOFD)—to conduct these inspections. While traditional methods like visual checks, magnetic particle testing, and standard ultrasound have limitations in detecting internal defects, Phased Array and TOFD excel with superior accuracy, sensitivity, and coverage. Exploring their principles and mechanisms, the article emphasizes their advantages over conventional ultrasound for inspecting welds, corrosion, and other potential integrity issues within riser components. The difficulties linked with examining risers once they are fully assembled are addressed, offering solutions to overcome these hurdles. Case studies are presented to showcase how Phased Array and TOFD effectively identify Serious flaws like fatigue cracks and thinning of wallsThe article emphasizes the need for a comprehensive inspection strategy that combines multiple techniques to thoroughly evaluate drilling riser integrity. Additionally, it discusses integrating advanced ultrasound technologies into existing inspection programs, covering aspects like equipment selection, personnel training, and data analysis considerations. Ultimately, this article spotlights the significant strides made in drilling riser integrity inspection thanks to advanced ultrasound technologies.

Abstract
Background:
Despite the fundamental progress in Hematopoietic stem cell transplant, this treatment is also associated with complications. Graft versus Host Disease is a possible complication of HSCT. Bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) is the pulmonary form of this syndrome. Due to the high morbidity and morbidity rate of BOS, various studies have been conducted in the field of drug therapy for this syndrome, although no standard treatment has yet been proposed. According to the hypotheses about the similarities between BOS and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, the idea of using tiotropium bromide as a bronchodilator has been proposed.
Method/design:
A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, and crossover clinical trial is being conducted to evaluate the efficacy of tiotropium in patients with BOS. A total of 20 patients with BOS, were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive a once-daily inhaled capsule of either Tiotropium bromide (KP-Tiova Rotacaps 18 mcg; Cipla; India) or placebo for 1 month. Patients will receive Tiotropium Bromide or placebo Revolizer added to usual standard care. Measurements will include spirometry, six-minute walking test.
Ethics/dissemination:
This study was approved by the Research Ethics Committees of Imam Khomeini Hospital Complex, Tehran University of Medical science. Recruitment started in September 2022, with 20 patients randomized. The treatment follow-up of participants with Tiotropium is currently ongoing and is due to finish in December 2023. The authors will disseminate the findings in peer-reviewed publications, conferences and seminar presentations.

Predicting Medical Waste Generation and Associated Factors Using Machine Learning in the Kingdom of Bahrain
Authors: Al-Omran Khadija , Khan Ezzat 
Published: January 2024

Abstract

Effective planning and managing medical waste necessitate a crucial focus on both the public and private healthcare sectors. This study uses machine learning techniques to estimate medical waste generation and identify associated factors in a representative private and a governmental hospital in Bahrain. Monthly data spanning from 2018 to 2022 for the private hospital and from 2019 to February 2023 for the governmental hospital was utilized. The ensemble voting regressor was determined as the best model for both datasets. The model of the governmental hospital is robust and successful in explaining 90.4% of the total variance. Similarly, for the private hospital, the model variables are able to explain 91.7% of the total variance. For the governmental hospital, the significant features in predicting medical waste generation were found to be the number of inpatients, population, surgeries, and outpatients, in descending order of importance. In the case of the private hospital, the order of feature importance was the number of inpatients, deliveries, personal income, surgeries, and outpatients. These findings provide insights into the factors influencing medical waste generation in the studied hospitals and highlight the effectiveness of the ensemble voting regressor model in predicting medical waste quantities.

Abstract

In both preclinical and clinical settings, dysregulated frontostriatal circuits have been identified as the underlying neural substrates of compulsive seeking/taking behaviors manifested in substance use disorders and behavioral addictions including internet gaming disorder (IGD). However, the neurochemical substrates for these disorders remain elusive. The lack of comprehensive cognitive assessments in animal models has hampered our understanding of neural plasticity in addiction from these models. In this study, combining data from a rat model of compulsive taking/seeking and human participants with various levels of IGD severity, we investigated the relationship between regional glutamate (Glu) concentration and addictive behaviors. We found that Glu levels were significantly lower in the prelimbic cortex (PrL) of rats after 20-days of methamphetamine self-administration (SA), compared to controls. Glu concentration after a punishment phase negatively correlated with acute drug-seeking behavior. In addition, changes in Glu levels from a drug naïve state to compulsive drug taking patterns negatively correlated with drug-seeking during both acute and prolonged abstinence. The human data revealed a significant negative correlation between Glu concentration in the dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (dACC), the human PrL counterpart, and symptoms of IGD. Interestingly, there was a positive correlation between Glu levels in the dACC and self-control, as well as mindful awareness. Further analysis revealed that the dACC Glu concentration mediated the relationship between self-control/mindful awareness and IGD symptoms. These results provide convergent evidence for a protective role of dACC/PrL in addiction, suggesting interventions to enhance dACC glutamatergic functions as a potential strategy for addiction prevention and treatment.
Super-sorption capacity and multi-cycle recovery of urea from aqueous solutions by vesicle-like iron phosphate-based carbon nano-adsorbent

Published: January 2024

Abstract
Despite the versatile potential applications of urea, its utilization is hindered by its unfavorable characteristics for conventional treatment methods.This necessitates the development of urea removal and recovery methods. Therefore, this study developed vesicle-like iron phosphate-based carbon (IP@C400) as a breakthrough urea removal and recovery adsorbent. IP@C400 exhibited an exceptional adsorption capacity (2242 mg/g) at a fast rate (within 2 h) across a wide range of pH environments, even in the presence of high concentrations of co-existing components, compared with the top 60 recent urea adsorbents. The adsorption process followed dual pseudo-kinetic and Langmuir isotherm models, indicating the involvement of both chemical and physical interactions between urea and the homogeneous monolayered adsorbent surface. The mechanisms included H-bonding and electrostatic attraction, as demonstrated by FT-IR and pH investigations. Remarkably, IP@C400 can be reused 10 times without significant loss of efficiency (90%) or recovery (95%)–a significant improvement over disposable options. The tests also showed safe leaching of iron and phosphorus, with levels below drinking water standards. IP@C400 worked effectively on real-world water samples, resulting in the complete removal and excellent recovery of urea. Thus, IP@C400 affords a sustainable, high-performance solution to the critical ultrapure water issue that industries must urgently address.

Published: January 2024

Abstract
The 2’, 5’-oligoadenylate synthetase (OAS) gene family plays an active role in antiviral immunity. Given their role in apoptosis and autoimmunity, aberrant expression of the OAS genes has been implicated in carcinogenesis. However, there has been minimal investigation of their potential role in tumorigenesis. Therefore, in this study, we used data from publicly available databases to examine the expression pattern of the OAS genes in different cancer tissues compared to normal tissues. The expression of the OAS genes was elevated in ten different cancer types. We observed significant association between the expression level of the OAS genes and overall survival (OS) in adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC), bladder urothelial carcinoma (BLCA), lower grade glioma (LGG), lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), kidney renal papillary cell carcinoma (KIRP), pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD), skin cutaneous melanoma (SKCM), kidney chromophobe (KICH), kidney renal cell carcinoma (KIRC), and thymoma (THYM). We also found interesting correlations between OAS gene expression and clinicopathological features, pathway enrichment, genetic alteration, copy number variations (CNVs), CD8 + T immune cell infiltration, and tumor purity in different cancers. Collectively, our findings indicate the potential utility of using the OAS family both as a diagnostic and prognostic biomarker and a therapeutic target in relevant cancers and contribute valuable insights into the intersection of cancer biology and treatment strategies.

Published: January 2024

Abstract

Mammalian Ste-20-like Kinases 1 and 2 (MST1/2) are core serine-threonine kinases of the Hippo pathway regulating several cellular processes, including cell cycle arrest and cell death. Here, we discovered a novel alternative splicing variant of the MST2 encoding gene, STK3, in malignant cells and tumor datasets. This variant, named STK3∆7 or MST2∆7 (for mRNA or protein, respectively), resulted from the skipping of exon 7. MST2∆7 exhibited increased ubiquitylation and interaction with the E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase CHIP compared to the full-length protein (MST2FL). The exon 7 in STK3 encodes a segment within the kinase domain, and its exclusion compromised interaction of MST2∆7 with MOB, a major MST1/2 substrate. Unlike MST2FL, overexpression of MST2∆7 did not lead to increased cell death and growth arrest. Strikingly, we observed exclusion of STK3 exon 7 in 3.2–15% of tumor samples from patients of several types of cancer, while STK3∆7 was seldomly found in healthy tissues that we analyzed. Our study identified a novel STK3 splicing variant with loss-of-function and potential to disturb tissue homeostasis by impacting the tumor suppressor activities of MST2 in regulation of cell death and quiescence.

Abstract
A 28-day pesticide degradation experiment was conducted on broccoli (Brassica oleracea L. var. italica Planch) and pakchoi (Brassica chinensis L.) with three pesticides (chlorantraniliprole (CAP), haloxyfop-etotyl (HPM), and indoxacarb (IXB)) to explore biochar effect on pesticides environmental fate and rhizosphere soil diversity. Rice straw biochar (RB) was applied to soil with 25 t·ha−1 dosage under greenhouse conditions, and its effects on the degradation of three pesticides and soil were investigated one by one. Overall, RB application effectively facilitated CAP and HPM degradation in broccoli by 13.5-39.4% and in broccoli soil by 23.8-74.1%. While for RB application retarted CAP, HPM and IXB degradation in pakchoi by 0-57.17% and retarted CAP degradationin in pakchoi by 37.32-43.4%. The results showed that RB application effect on pesticide degradation in crops and soil was related to biochar properities, pesticide solubility, plant growth status, and soil characteristics. Rhizosphere soil microorganisms were investigated at the same time and the result showed that biochar application may be valuable in altering the bacterial richness and diversity. The effect of biochar application on pesticide residues in crops and soil was influenced by the growth status of crops mostly, and the next was pesticides characteristics. This study suggested that biochar application in soil may be effect to reduce pesticide non-point source pollution, especially for pesticide with high solubility and may shift soil microorganisms.
First measurement of the Weyl potential evolution from the Year 3 Dark Energy Survey data: Localising the σ8 tension
Authors: Bonvin Camille , Tutusaus Isaac , Grimm Nastassia 
Published: January 2024

Abstract

We present the first measurement of the Weyl potential at four redshifts bins using data from the first three years of observations of the Dark Energy Survey (DES). The Weyl potential, which is the sum of the spatial and temporal distortions of the Universe's geometry, provides a direct way of testing the theory of gravity and the validity of the ΛCDM model. We find that the measured Weyl potential is 2.3σ, respectively 3.1σ, below the ΛCDM predictions in the two lowest redshift bins. We show that these low values of the Weyl potential are at the origin of the σ8 tension between Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) measurements and weak lensing measurements. Interestingly, we find that the tension remains if no information from the CMB is used. DES data on their own prefer a high value of the primordial fluctuations, followed by a slow evolution of the Weyl potential. A remarkable feature of our method is that the measurements of the Weyl potential are model-independent and can therefore be confronted with any theory of gravity, allowing efficient tests of models beyond General Relativity.
