AbstractThis work demonstrates the design and straightforward syntheses of several novel probe-based on rhodamine B and 2-mercaptoquinoline-3-carbaldehydes as a naked-eye colorimetric probe, indicating a sensitive and selective recognition towards nickel (II) with a limit of detection 0.30 μmol L−1 (0.02 mg L−1). Further, by employing the oxidation property of hypochlorite (OCl−), this novel probe parallelly has been deployed to detect hypochlorite in laboratory conditions with a limit of detection of 0.19 μmol mL−1 and in living cells. Regarded to negligible cell toxicity toward mammalian cells, this probe has the potential to determine these analytes in in-vivo investigation and foodstuff samples.
Regional common prosperity level and its spatial relationship with carbon emission intensity in China
Authors: Zhao Xiaochun , Long Laichun , Yin Shi 
Published: October 2023

AbstractThe characteristics of common prosperity include harmonious relationships between humans and the environment, as well as sustainable economic and social growth. The process of achieving common prosperity will necessarily have an impact on carbon emissions. In this article, panel statistics collected from 30 Chinese provinces and cities between the years 2006 and 2020 are utilized to assess the level of common prosperity and the intensity of carbon emissions in China. Then the SDM model is applied to explore the effects of the common prosperity level on the intensity of carbon emissions. The findings reveal that: (i) The common prosperity level in China has shown an increasing tendency. Between 2006 and 2020, the mean level of common prosperity increased from 0.254 to 0.486. From the regional perspective, eastern China has seen greater levels of common prosperity than central China, while central China has experienced greater levels of common prosperity than western China; regional disparities in the degree of common prosperity are substantial among Chinese provinces from 2006 to 2020; the common prosperity level is relatively high in economically developed provinces and relatively low in economically backward provinces. (ii) China's carbon emission intensity shows a continuous downward tendency. The annual average intensity of China's carbon emissions decreased from 4.458 in 2006 to 2.234 in 2020. From the regional perspective, the three main regions' carbon emission intensity likewise exhibits a decline in tendency between 2006 and 2020; still, western China continues to have the greatest carbon emission intensity, following central China, while eastern China has the smallest; however, certain provinces, notably Inner Mongolia and Shanxi, continue to have high carbon emission intensity. (iii) China's common prosperity level and carbon emission intensity both exhibit positive spatial autocorrelation at a 1% significant level under the adjacency matrix. The spatial agglomeration effect is significant, and adjacent provinces can affect each other. (iv) The SDM (Spatial Durbin Model) model test with fixed effects finds that the increase in the level of common prosperity suppresses the intensity of carbon emissions in the local area and neighboring regions. (v) The mediating effects model indicates that the process of common prosperity suppresses carbon emission intensity through high-quality economic development, narrowing the income disparity, and the development of a sharing economy.
Partner relationships, hopelessness, and health status strongly predict maternal well-being: an approach using light gradient boosting machine

Published: October 2023

AbstractNo recent study has explicitly focused on predicting the well-being of pregnant women. This study used data from an extensive online survey in Japan to examine the predictors of the subjective well-being of pregnant women. We developed and validated a light Gradient Boosting Machine (lightGBM) model using data from 400 pregnant women in 2020 to identify three factors that predict subjective well-being. The results confirmed that the model could predict subjective well-being in pregnant women with 84% accuracy. New variables that contributed significantly to this prediction were "partner help", "hopelessness," and "health status". A new lightGBM model was built with these three factors, trained and validated using data from 400 pregnant women in 2020, and predicted using data from 1791 pregnant women in 2021, with an accuracy of 88%. These factors were also significant risk factors for subjective well-being in the regression analysis adjusted for maternal age, region, parity, education level, and the presence of mental illness. Mediation analysis, with “hopelessness” as the mediator, showed that both “partner help” and “health status” directly and indirectly affected the outcome.
Harnessing the power of synthetic data in healthcare: innovation, application, and privacy
Authors: Giuffrè Mauro , Shung Dennis L. 
Published: October 2023

AbstractData-driven decision-making in modern healthcare underpins innovation and predictive analytics in public health and clinical research. Synthetic data has shown promise in finance and economics to improve risk assessment, portfolio optimization, and algorithmic trading. However, higher stakes, potential liabilities, and healthcare practitioner distrust make clinical use of synthetic data difficult. This paper explores the potential benefits and limitations of synthetic data in the healthcare analytics context. We begin with real-world healthcare applications of synthetic data that informs government policy, enhance data privacy, and augment datasets for predictive analytics. We then preview future applications of synthetic data in the emergent field of digital twin technology. We explore the issues of data quality and data bias in synthetic data, which can limit applicability across different applications in the clinical context, and privacy concerns stemming from data misuse and risk of re-identification. Finally, we evaluate the role of regulatory agencies in promoting transparency and accountability and propose strategies for risk mitigation such as Differential Privacy (DP) and a dataset chain of custody to maintain data integrity, traceability, and accountability. Synthetic data can improve healthcare, but measures to protect patient well-being and maintain ethical standards are key to promote responsible use.
Replacement reactions for carbon geosequestration may be faster in calcium olivine vs magnesium olivine
Authors: Chen Hsieh 
Published: October 2023

AbstractCO2 mineralization is the safest CO2 geosequestration method with the highest sequestration capacity. Even though there have been lab and pilot-scale demonstrations, the complex chemical reaction is still elusive at atomic level. Here, I show that the ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) and metadynamics simulations enable quantitative analysis of reaction pathways, thermodynamics, and kinetics of the Mg2+ and Ca2+ ion dissolutions from olivine minerals, which have high weathering potential for carbonation process. The leaching of Ca2+ from the Ca-olivine surface is a ligand exchange process that results in a much lower energy barrier with 103 times faster dissolution rate compared to the leaching of Mg2+, which the tight magnesium sites on the forsterite (Mg-olivine) surface forbid ligand exchange. These results provide indication on water capabilities in solvating Ca2+ and Mg2+ that are relevant to mineral carbonation and can help the evaluation of potential enhanced CO2 mineralization mechanisms.
Drift of invariant manifolds and transient chaos in memristor Chua's circuit
Authors: Marco Mauro Di , Forti Mauro , Pancioni Luca , Tesi Alberto 
Published: October 2023

AbstractThe article shows that transient chaos phenomena can be observed in a generalized memristor Chua's circuit where a nonlinear resistor is introduced to better model the real memristor behaviour. The flux‐charge analysis method is used to explain the origin of transient chaos, that is attributed to the drift of the index of the memristor circuit invariant manifolds caused by the charge flowing into the nonlinear resistor.
An efficient geometric partitioning mode by adaptive blending method for screen content coding
Authors: Lee Minhun , Oh Seoung‐Jun , Sim Donggyu 
Published: October 2023

AbstractGeometric partitioning mode (GPM) was newly adopted in Versatile Video Coding (VVC) to increase the partitioning precision of the arbitrary boundaries of actual objects. Note that the blending process of the GPM is not suitable for screen content with various sharp and strong edges. To alleviate this drawback, three new GPM matrices are introduced, and an efficient GPM is proposed to utilize four different GPM matrices and implicitly determine one of them depending on the discontinuity and gradients of the two predictors. The proposed method achieves an average BD‐rate reduction of 1.2% and 1.6% without additional computational complexity for random access and low‐delay B configurations, respectively, over the VVC test model (VTM18.0).

AbstractSingle‐mode distributed feedback GaSb‐based interband cascade lasers with record emission beyond 6.1 µm are presented. The results are based on an epitaxial design with reduced resonant intersubband absorption in the valence band and rebalanced internally generated carriers. The epi‐down mounted 8 µm wide and 1 mm long laser chip is operated in continuous wave mode at room temperature and covers a bandwidth of over 20 nm with temperature and current tuning. At 25°C more than 4 mW of optical output power was measured.
Reconstruction of target scattering centres based on characteristics analysis of inverse synthetic aperture radar images
Authors: Wu Hanjie , Cheng Yongqiang , Zou Runming 
Published: October 2023

AbstractDue to the aircraft targets’ uncooperative character, acquiring the complete scattering characteristics of enemy aircraft is challenging. An effective reconstruction method of target scattering centres based on characteristics analysis of inverse synthetic aperture radar (ISAR) images is proposed in this letter. First, a positive definite manifold characterizing ISAR images of different attitudes is constructed. Then, Kullback–Leibler divergence is used as a measure of the variability between ISAR images. Finally, an ISAR image interpolation method based on the characteristics analysis of ISAR images is proposed to obtain the scattering characteristics with more attitudes. Furthermore, simulation results confirm that the proposed method is effective.

Authors: Hemmati Mohammad Jafar , Mood Sepehr Ebrahimi 
Published: October 2023

AbstractThis paper presents a differential complementary metal oxide semiconductor inductor‐capacitor voltage controlled oscillator (LC‐VCO). The VCO is adopted from the gate‐to‐source capacitor feedback Colpitts VCO which has the advantage of large value of negative conductance. Due to the large negative conductance, the VCO has a more reliable startup oscillation at the lower currents. The main characteristics of the VCO such as negative conductance, oscillation frequency and phase noise are discussed and analysed. The value of parameters in this circuit have been determined using Non‐dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm (NSGA‐II) to have the optimum performance. The designed VCO oscillates at 2.76 GHz under a supply voltage of 1.4 V. Power dissipation of the proposed VCO is 873 μW which is significantly lower than that of some other VCOs. The post‐layout simulation results of the proposed VCO are presented and compared with the performance of some other VCOs.
HCM‐based indoor optical wireless communications: Timing and data recovery

Published: October 2023

AbstractLight‐fidelity (Li‐Fi) is a promising solution to provide high‐rate, secure, and green communications to be used in the next generation of wireless networks. Since visible or infrared (IR) light‐emitting diodes (LEDs) are used as the optical source and have a non‐linear transfer function, the transmitted modulated signal can be distorted if the signal has a high peak‐to‐average power ratio (PAPR). Recently, a new modulation scheme called Hadamard‐coded modulation (HCM) is proposed which has no PAPR concern since it produces symbols with discrete levels. In the HCM technique, the symbol levels can be created using multiple LEDs. Therefore, each LED operates in its linear region and just switches on or off. A low‐complexity transceiver architecture for the HCM‐based communication links is proposed and a complete synchronisation procedure based on the spread‐spectrum techniques is presented. Finally, the bit error rate of the system is evaluated by Monte Carlo simulations, and effects of system parameters such as preamble length, fall and rise time of optical devices, and timing jitter on the bit error rate of the link are discussed.
Usages de l’Orthosiphon en phytothérapie vétérinaire
Authors: Schmitt Nathalie 
Published: October 2023

L’Orthosiphon est une plante d’origine asiatique dont l’usage traditionnel est ancien. Il est prescrit dans le cadre des affections de la sphère urinaire telles que l’insuffisance rénale, les lithiases et les ­infections urinaires. Concernant les affections cardiovasculaires, l’action antihypertensive de l’Orthosiphon permet de le prescrire dans le cadre des hypertensions artérielles légères à modérées. Son action hypoglycémiante, associée à son action drainante permet de le prescrire dans la prise en charge du diabète de type II. De nouvelles études tendent à montrer que l’Orthosiphon pourrait être intéressant dans la prise en charge d’autres pathologies, notamment en oncologie.
La prescription de l’Orthosiphon doit cependant être raisonnée dans le cas de pathologies sévères, et se faire dans le respect des règles en vigueur pour le médicament vétérinaire.

Published: October 2023

AbstractThe current standard of treatment for nonvariceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding (NVUGIB) includes endoscopic hemostasis with either through-the-scope clips or thermal therapy. However, they may be associated with rebleeding, especially in high-risk ulcers. Over-the-scope clips (OTSC) have been demonstrated in multiple recent studies to be an effective measure for NVUGIB. We aimed to analyze the current literature on standard therapy with OTSC to manage NVUGIB. A meta-analysis was performed by pooling the data from randomized studies obtained from a comprehensive search of Medline, Embase, and Scopus from inception to February 2023. The outcomes analyzed included rates of persistent bleeding, rebleeding, mortality, and duration of hospitalization. A total of five studies were included in the final analysis. There was no significant difference in the risk of persistent bleeding between the groups, with a risk ratio (RR) of 0.29 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.07–1.27). The use of OTSC was associated with a significantly lower risk of 7-day and 30-day rebleeding compared with standard therapy with RR of 0.30 (95% CI: 0.16–0.59) and 0.42 (95% CI: 0.24–0.72), respectively. There was no difference in the risk of 30-day mortality or the duration of hospitalization. There was no change in the effect on subgroup analysis of studies using OTSC as first-line therapy. The use of OTSC can reduce the rebleeding rates after endoscopic hemostasis. However, they may not reduce the risk of persistent bleeding or mortality. Future studies are required on the cost-efficacy of this modality.

Abstract
Introduction The transbasal approach traditionally uses a bicoronal scalp incision with bifrontal craniotomy to establish an extradural midline skull base working corridor. Depending on additional craniofacial osteotomies, this approach can expand its reach to the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses and may be employed for the resection of particularly complex sinonasal and midline skull base tumors. Given its discrepancy in nomenclature and differences in interoperator technique, we propose a practical, operatively oriented guide for trainees performing this approach.
Methods Three formalin-fixed, latex-injected specimens were dissected under microscopic magnification and endoscopic-assisted visualization. Stepwise dissections of the transcranial-transbasal approach with common modifications were performed, documented with three-dimensional photography, and supplemented with representative case applications.
Results The traditional transbasal approach via bifrontal craniotomy affords wide extradural access to the anterior cranial fossa and central skull base. The addition of craniofacial osteotomies further expands access into the sinonasal cavities, clivus, and craniocervical junction. Key steps described include patient positioning, bicoronal skin incision, pericranial graft harvest, bifrontal craniotomy, orbital rim osteotomy, sphenoidotomy, bilateral ethmoidectomies, and microsurgical dissection of the sellar region. Basal superior sagittal sinus ligation and durotomy allow for intradural exposure. Reconstruction techniques are also discussed.
Conclusion While the transbasal approach is rich with historical descriptions, illustrations, and modifications, its stepwise performance may be relatively unknown and unclear to younger generations of trainees. We present a comprehensive guide to optimize familiarity with the transbasal approach and its indications in the surgical anatomy laboratory, mastery of the relevant microsurgical anatomy, and simultaneous preparation for learning and participation in the operating room.

Published: October 2023

Context The construction of dams on the Chin-sha River will affect fish spawning sites, leading to a decline in fish species. Aims This paper presents a model to evaluate the ecological status of restoration strategies aimed at fish species living at a spawning site. Methods The model comprises hydro-morphodynamic and habitat modules. The modelling approach was applied with two restoration strategies (side-channel addition and riverbank reconstruction) and their corresponding post-restoration effects. Key results Three indicators were utilised to assess the ecological status of the spawning site. Modelling results showed poor ecological status under current hydrological conditions, with weighted usable area and overall suitability index values of 1.07 × 106 m2 and 0.41. Without implementing a restoration strategy, the ecological status would continue to fragment and deteriorate. Conclusions The weighted usable area can be recovered to 2.86 × 106 and 1.67 × 106 m2 in scenarios of side-channel and bank construction respectively. The overall suitability index values increase to 0.67 and 0.63 respectively. Implications It is also noted that the ecological restoration strategy (side-channel addition) can considerably enhance the freshwater Reeves shad’s habitat status. Additionally, the restoration strategy illustrated the feasibility of the side-channel addition restoration strategy.
A Novel Imaging Method Based on Reweighted Total Variation for an Interferometer Array on Lunar Orbit

Published: October 2023

Abstract
Ground-based radio observations below 30 MHz are susceptible to the ionosphere of the Earth and the radio frequency interference. Compared with other space mission concepts, making low frequency observations using an interferometer array on lunar orbit is one of the most feasible ones due to a number of technical and economic advantages. Different from traditional interferometer arrays, the interferometer array on lunar orbit faces some complications such as the three-dimensional distribution of baselines and the changing sky blockage by the Moon. Although the brute-force method based on the linear mapping relationship between the visibilities and the sky temperature can produce satisfactory results in general, there are still large residual errors on account of the loss of the edge information. To obtain the full-sky maps with higher accuracy, in this paper we propose a novel imaging method based on reweighted total variation (RTV) for a lunar orbit interferometer array. Meanwhile, a split Bregman iteration method is introduced to optimize the proposed RTV model so as to decrease the computation time. The simulation results show that, compared with the traditional brute-force method, the RTV regularization method can effectively reduce the reconstruction errors and obtain more accurate sky maps, which proves the effectiveness of the proposed method.
