Published: January 2024

AbstractCarbon quantum dots‐based memristors (CQDMs) have emerged as a rising star in data storage and computing. The key constraint to their commercialization is memristance variability, which mainly arises from the disordered conductive paths. Doping methodology can optimize electron and ion transport to help construct a stable conductive mode. Herein, based on boron (B)‐doped engineering strategy, three kinds of comparable quantum dots are synthesized, including carbon quantum dots (CQDs), a series of boron‐doped CQDs (BCQDs) with different B contents, and boron quantum dots. The corresponding device performances highlight the superiority of BCQDs‐based memristors, exhibiting a ternary flash‐type memory behavior with longer retention time and more controllable memristance stability. The comprehensive analysis results, including device performance, functional layer morphology, and material simulated calculation, illustrate that the doped B elements can directionally guide the migration of aluminum ions by enhancing the capture of free electrons, resulting in ordered conductive filaments and stable ternary memory behavior. Finally, the conceptual applications of logic display and logic gate are discussed, indicating a bright prospect for BCQDs‐based memristors. This work proves that modest B doping can optimize memristance property, establishing a theoretical foundation and template scheme for developing effective and stable CQDMs.

Published: January 2024

AbstractThe transition to sustainable transportation has fueled the need for innovative electric vehicle (EV) charging solutions. Building Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) systems have emerged as a promising technology that combines renewable energy generation with the infra‐structure of buildings. This paper comprehensively reviews the BIPV system for EV charging, focusing on its technology, application, and performance. The review identifies the gaps in the existing literature, emphasizing the need for a thorough examination of BIPV systems in the context of EV charging. A detailed review of BIPV technology and its application in EV charging is presented, covering aspects such as the generation of solar cell technology, BIPV system installation, design options and influencing factors. Furthermore, the review examines the performance of BIPV systems for EV charging, focusing on energy, economic, and environmental parameters and their comparison with previous studies. Additionally, the paper explores current trends in energy management for BIPV and EV charging, highlighting the need for effective integration and recommending strategies to optimize energy utilization. Combining BIPV with EV charging provides a promising approach to power EV chargers, enhances building energy efficiency, optimizes the building space, reduces energy losses, and decreases grid dependence. Utilizing BIPV‐generated electricity for EV charging provides electricity and fuel savings, offers financial incentives, and increases the market value of the building infrastructure. It significantly lowers greenhouse gas emissions associated with grid and vehicle emissions. It creates a closed‐loop circular economic system where energy is produced, consumed, and stored within the building. The paper underscores the importance of effective integration between Building Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) and Electric Vehicle (EV) charging, emphasizing the necessity of innovative grid technologies, energy storage solutions, and demand‐response energy management strategies to overcome diverse challenges. Overall, the study contributes to the knowledge of BIPV systems for EV charging by presenting practical energy management, effectiveness and sustainability implications. It serves as a valuable resource for researchers, practitioners, and policymakers working towards sustainable transportation and energy systems.

Published: January 2024

AbstractCell senescence, glycolysis, and mitochondrial deficit jointly regulate the development of septic acute kidney injury (SAKI). This study aimed to explore the role of circular RNA HIPK3 (circHIPK3) in mitochondrial function in SAKI. The SAKI mouse model was established by Candida albicans infection, followed by Western blot assay, measurements of serum lactate, and adenosine triphosphate (ATP), 5,5′,6,6′‐tetrachloro‐1,1′,3,3′‐tetraethylbenzimi‐dazolylcarbocyanine iodide (JC‐1) staining and flow cytometry. Human renal tubular epithelial cells were treated with lipopolysaccharide to establish the SAKI cell model, followed by cell counting kit‐8 assay, tests of hexokinase activity, lactate production, oxygen consumption rate, extracellular acidification rate, ATP, and JC‐1 staining, and Western blot assay. The roles of mitochondrial pyruvate carrier 1 (MPC1) were validated by kidney function tests, hematoxylin and eosin staining, periodic acid‐Schiff staining, and SA‐β‐gal staining. circHIPK3 downregulation reduced glycolysis and mitochondrial dysfunction both in vivo and in vitro through the microRNA (miR)‐148b‐3p/DNMT1/3a/Klotho axis. Inhibition of miR‐148b‐3p or Klotho increased glycolysis and mitochondrial dysfunction. Knockdown of MPC1 increased lactate content and decreased ATP levels and MMP both in vivo and in vitro. Collectively, circHIPK3, in concert with the miR‐148b‐3p/DNMT1/3a/Klotho axis, increased glycolysis, and inhibited the negative regulation of lactate production by MPC1, and aggravated mitochondrial dysfunction and cell senescence in SAKI.

Published: January 2024

AbstractTolfenpyrad, a highly effective and broad‐spectrum insecticide and acaricide extensively utilized in agriculture, presents a potential hazard to nontarget organisms. This study was designed to explore the toxic mechanisms of tolfenpyrad on zebrafish embryos. Between 24 and 96 h after exposure of the fertilized embryos to tolfenpyrad at concentrations ranging from 0.001 to 0.016 mg/L (96 h‐LC50 = 0.017 mg/L), lethal effects were apparent, accompanied with notable anomalies including pericardial edema, increased pericardial area, diminished heart rate, and an elongated distance between the venous sinus and the arterial bulb. Tolfenpyrad elicited noteworthy alterations in the expression of genes pertinent to cardiac development and apoptosis, with the most pronounced changes observed in the cardiac development‐related genes of bone morphogenetic protein 2b (bmp2b) and p53 upregulated modulator of apoptosis (puma). The findings underscore that tolfenpyrad induces severe cardiac toxicity and mitochondrial damage in zebrafish embryos. This data is imperative for a comprehensive assessment of tolfenpyrad risks to aquatic ecosystems, particularly considering the limited knowledge regarding its detrimental impact on aquatic vertebrates.

Published: January 2024

AbstractPerfluorotetradecanoic acid (PFTeDA) is a novel perfluoroalkyl substance that ubiquitously exists in the environment. However, whether PFTeDA affects adrenal cortex function remains unclear. Male Sprague–Dawley rats (age of 60 days) were daily administered with PFTeDA (0, 1, 5, and 10 mg/kg body weight) through gavage for 28 days. PFTeDA did not change body and adrenal gland weights. PFTeDA markedly elevated serum corticosterone level at 10 mg/kg but lowering serum aldosterone level at this dosage without influencing serum adrenocorticotropic hormone level. PFTeDA thickened zona fasciculata without affecting zona glomerulosa. PFTeDA remarkably upregulated the expression of corticosterone biosynthetic genes (Mc2r, Scarb1, Star, Cyp21, Cyp11b1, and Hsd11b1) and their proteins, whereas downregulating aldosterone biosynthetic enzyme Cyp11b2 and its protein, thereby distinctly altering their serum levels. PFTeDA markedly downregulated the expression of antioxidant genes (Sod1 and Sod2) and their proteins at 10 mg/kg. PFTeDA significantly decreased SIRT1/PGC1α and AMPK signaling while stimulating AKT1/mTOR signaling. Corticosterone significantly inhibited testosterone production by adult Leydig cells at >0.1 μM in vitro; however aldosterone significantly stimulated testosterone production at 0.1 nM. In conclusion, exposure to PFTeDA at male rat adulthood causes corticosterone excess and aldosterone deficiency via SIRT1/PGC1α, AMPK, and AKT1/mTOR signals, which in turn additively leads to testosterone deficiency.

Published: January 2024

AbstractNacelle‐mounted, forward‐facing light detection and ranging (LIDAR) technology can deliver benefits to rotor speed regulation and loading reductions of floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) when assisting with blade pitch control in above‐rated wind speed conditions. Large‐scale wind turbines may be subject to significant variations in structural loads due to differences in the wind profile across the rotor‐swept area. These loading fluctuations can be mitigated by individual pitch control (IPC). This paper presents a novel LIDAR‐assisted feedforward IPC approach that uses each blade's rotor azimuth position to allocate an individual pitch command from a multi‐beam LIDAR. In this study, the source code of OpenFAST wind turbine modelling software was modified to enable LIDAR simulation and LIDAR‐assisted control. The LIDAR simulation modifications were accepted by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) and are now present within OpenFAST releases from v3.5 onwards. Simulations of a 15 MW FOWT were performed across the above‐rated wind spectrum. Under a turbulent wind field with an average wind speed of 17 ms−1, the LIDAR‐assisted feedforward IPC delivered up to 54% reductions in the root mean squared errors and standard deviations of key FOWT parameters. Feedforward IPC delivered enhancements of up to 12% over feedforward collective pitch control, relative to the baseline feedback controller. The reductions to the standard deviation and range of the rotor speed may enable structural optimization of the tower, while the reductions in the variations of the loadings present an opportunity for reduced fatigue damage on turbine components and, consequently, a reduction in maintenance expenditure.
The role of lifelong machine learning in bridging the gap between human and machine learning: A scientometric analysis
Authors: Abulaish Muhammad , Wasi Nesar Ahmad , Sharma Shachi 
Published: January 2024

AbstractDue to advancements in data collection, storage, and processing techniques, machine learning has become a thriving and dominant paradigm. However, one of its main shortcomings is that the classical machine learning paradigm acts in isolation without utilizing the knowledge gained through learning from related tasks in the past. To circumvent this, the concept of Lifelong Machine Learning (LML) has been proposed, with the goal of mimicking how humans learn and acquire cognition. Human learning research has revealed that the brain connects previously learned information while learning new information from a single or small number of examples. Similarly, an LML system continually learns by storing and applying acquired information. Starting with an analysis of how the human brain learns, this paper shows that the LML framework shares a functional structure with the brain when it comes to solving new problems using previously learned information. It also provides a description of the LML framework, emphasizing its similarities to human brain learning. It also provides citation graph generation and scientometric analysis algorithms for the LML literatures, including information about the datasets and evaluation metrics that have been used in the empirical evaluation of LML systems. Finally, it presents outstanding issues and possible future research directions in the field of LML.This article is categorized under:Technologies > Machine Learning
Extended kinematical 3D gravity theories

Published: January 2024

Abstract
In this work, we classify all extended and generalized kinematical Lie algebras that can be obtained by expanding the $$ \mathfrak{so} $$
so
(2, 2) algebra. We show that the Lie algebra expansion method based on semigroups reproduces not only the original kinematical algebras but also a family of non- and ultra-relativistic algebras. Remarkably, the extended kinematical algebras obtained as sequential expansions of the AdS algebra are characterized by a non-degenerate bilinear invariant form, ensuring the construction of a well-defined Chern-Simons gravity action in three spacetime dimensions. Contrary to the contraction process, the degeneracy of the non-Lorentzian theories is avoided without extending the relativistic algebra but considering a bigger semigroup. Using the properties of the expansion procedure, we show that our construction also applies at the level of the Chern-Simons action.

Published: January 2024

Abstract
Purpose
This study aims to ascertain the prevalence of rib fractures and other injuries resulting from CPR and to compare manual with mechanically assisted CPR. An additional aim was to summarize the literature on surgical treatment for rib fractures following CPR.

Design
Systematic review and meta-analysis.

Data sources
Embase, Medline Ovid, Cochrane Central, Web of Science, and Google Scholar.

Review methods
The databases were searched to identify studies reporting on CPR-related injuries in patients who underwent chest compressions for a non-traumatic cardiopulmonary arrest. Subgroup analysis was conducted to compare the prevalence of CPR-related injuries in manual versus mechanically assisted chest compressions. Studies reporting on surgery for CPR-related rib fractures were also reviewed and summarized.

Results
Seventy-four studies reporting CPR-related injuries were included encompassing a total of 16,629 patients. Any CPR-related injury was documented in 60% (95% confidence interval [95% CI] 49–71) patients. Rib fractures emerged as the most common injury, with a pooled prevalence of 55% (95% CI 48–62). Mechanically assisted CPR, when compared to manual CPR, was associated with a higher risk ratio for CPR-related injuries of 1.36 (95% CI 1.17–1.59). Eight studies provided information on surgical stabilization of CPR-related rib fractures. The primary indication for surgery was the inability to wean from mechanical ventilation in the presence of multiple rib fractures.

Conclusion
Rib fractures and other injuries frequently occur in patients who undergo CPR after a non-traumatic cardiopulmonary arrest, especially when mechanical CPR is administered. Surgical stabilization of CPR-related rib fractures remains relatively uncommon.

Level of evidence
Level III, systematic review and meta-analysis.

AbstractMedical specialist training requires constant improvement and adaptation of the contents to the current situation. Nowadays, young physicians have the opportunity to select among the most renowned institutions and can choose the one most qualified for their training. Hospitals on the other hand still have the desire to recruit highly qualified physicians for their resident programs, which requires a good, well-rounded and reliable offer by the department under good leadership. Thus, among other issues a modern and multilingual homepage is already an important instrument for successfully addressing applicants and winning them over for the department. In addition to a well-planned and structured training plan (e.g., the “Homburg Curriculum”) and a so-called “resident guide”, many other additional offers are nowadays part of a successful training, such as structured internal and external specialist training courses, well thought out research concepts available to all interested parties, wet labs for practical exercises on pig’s eyes and as the latest most innovative addition, a virtual reality simulator. Due to a structured curriculum with regular continuous education during the daily early morning meetings and an exchange program with another university eye hospital, not only the residents can benefit but ultimately also the department itself. In addition, future specialists are involved in the respective organization (so-called “service teams”) from the very beginning. This conveys a great deal of knowledge and expertise but also organizational skills and thus improves the quality of training. In any case, standardized residency training with a view beyond the horizon, which is transparently organized and reliably carried out, improves the quality of training in order to become a certified ophthalmologist and increases the satisfaction of the residents. A department which is committed and can offer a wide range of services will benefit from motivated and satisfied employees in a good interpersonal climate, which in the end benefits not only the team but also the patients.

AbstractThe global physical and biogeochemical environment has been substantially altered in response to increased atmospheric greenhouse gases from human activities. In 2023, the sea surface temperature (SST) and upper 2000 m ocean heat content (OHC) reached record highs. The 0–2000 m OHC in 2023 exceeded that of 2022 by 15 ± 10 ZJ (1 Zetta Joules = 1021Joules) (updated IAP/CAS data); 9 ± 5 ZJ (NCEI/NOAA data). The Tropical Atlantic Ocean, the Mediterranean Sea, and southern oceans recorded their highest OHC observed since the 1950s. Associated with the onset of a strong El Niño, the global SST reached its record high in 2023 with an annual mean of ∼0.23°C higher than 2022 and an astounding > 0.3°C above 2022 values for the second half of 2023. The density stratification and spatial temperature inhomogeneity indexes reached their highest values in 2023.
On the takeover mechanism in market socialism
Authors: Carnevali Emilio , Sommacal Matteo 
Published: January 2024

AbstractIn the three decades since the collapse of the Soviet Union, the notion of socialism has been swept into almost total disrepute. The more recent economic literature, however, has shown a resurgence of interest in the concept of socialism, albeit on very different theoretical grounds than in the past. This article investigates the reasons for the socialist movement’s historical distrust of the development of “well-defined” economic projects. This attitude seems to have disappeared in contemporary “socialist projects”. The article also discusses the Shareholder Socialism proposal developed by economist Corneo (Is capitalism obsolete? A journey through alternative economic systems. Harvard University Press, Cambridge, 2017, Ann Public Coop Econ 89(1):11–24, 2018, Rev Soc Econ 77(1):35–55, 2019) and proposes a different mathematical formulation of the mechanism through which the takeover of private industries by the public sector should be conducted.

ZusammenfassungEine gelungene Eltern-Kind-Interaktion ist essenziell für eine adäquate soziale, emotionale und kognitive Entwicklung des Kindes. Psychiatrische Erkrankungen in der Postpartalzeit können zu einer Störung dieser Interaktion führen. Für peripartale Depression wurde ein erhöhtes Risiko für eine verminderte Eltern-Kind-Bindung und eine veränderte Mutter-Kind-Interaktion gezeigt. Eine frühzeitige multimodale Behandlung von psychiatrischen Symptomen bei der Mutter, interaktionsspezifische Therapieangebote und die Einbeziehung des familiären und sozialen Umfelds sind essenziell in diesem Zusammenhang. Der präsentierte Fall soll die Komplexität und Besonderheiten der Behandlung von psychiatrisch erkrankten Müttern aufzeigen.
Monitoring respiratory state from near-infrared face video images

Published: January 2024

AbstractIn this paper, we propose an algorithm for estimating respiratory state using near-infrared facial video images. Estimation of respiratory state is an important indicator for early detection of respiratory diseases. In particular, there is a demand for monitoring respiratory state during the night. One method of monitoring respiratory state is to use contact-type sensors. However, this method requires the installation of many sensors and a visit to a hospital, which place a burden on patients. Therefore, we propose to acquire respiratory-induced features from near-infrared face video images and investigate their similarity to measurements obtained with a respirometer for non-contact monitoring of respiratory state in the dark. Respiratory-induced features were obtained from pulse wave signals extracted from the face video images. The results showed correlations in several respiratory states. This study opens some perspectives in non-contact monitoring of respiratory states.
