Published: November 2023

Abstract
Detecting component defects and attaching tiny-scaled foreign objects to the overhead transmission lines are critical to the national grid’s safe operation and power distribution. The urgent task, however, faces challenges such as the complex working environment and the massive amount of workforce investment, for which we propose a deep-learning-aided object detection approach, YOLO-CSM, to address the issue. Combined with two attention mechanisms (Swin Transformer and CBAM) and an extra detection layer, the proposed model can effectively capture global information and key visual features and promote its ability to identify tiny-scaled defects and distant objects in the visual fields. In order to validate this model, this work consolidates a dataset composed of public images and our field-taken picture samples. The experiment verifies the YOLO-CSM as a suitable solution for small and distant object detection that over-performs several well-used algorithms, featuring a 16.3% faster detection speed than YOLOv5 and a 3.3% better detection accuracy than YOLOv7. Finally, this work conducts an interpretability experiment to reveal the similarity between YOLO-CSM’s attention patterns and that of our humans, aiming to explain YOLO-CSM’s advantages in detecting small objects and minor defects in the working environments of power transmission lines.

Geographical Complexity, Fiscal Decentralization, and Equalization of Regional Basic Public Services
Authors: Liu Jianghao , Song Meizhe 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Scholars often overlook the complexity of the terrain, an important factor influencing the equalization of regions’ basic public services. This study utilizes data from 278 prefecture-level cities in China from 2011 to 2021. It employs the ASTER GDEM 30M resolution digital elevation data to identify and extract terrain complexity characterized by slope, elevation, and topographic variation. It empirically examines the terrain complexity’s impact on the equalization of regions’ basic public services and its underlying mechanisms. The results reveal that as terrain complexity increases, the equalization level of regions’ basic public services decreases. The mechanism analysis infers that terrain complexity aggravates the degree of fiscal decentralization, resulting in a wider disparity of basic public services among regions. Additionally, the exploratory analysis divulges that the expansion of communication networks augments the complex terrain’s impact on widening regional disparities in basic public services.

Published: November 2023

Abstract

The response capacities of urban flood forecasting and risk control can be improved by strengthening the computational abilities of urban flood numerical models. In this work, a GPU-based hydrodynamic model is developed to simulate urban rainstorm inundations. By simulating rainstorm floods in a certain area of Xixian New City, the established model can implement high-resolution urban rainstorm inundation simulations with significantly accelerated computing performances. The accelerated computation efficiencies of the different rainstorm event simulations under resolutions of 5 and 2 m are quantitatively analysed, showing that the absolute and relative speedup ratios for all scenarios of applying two GPUs range from 10.8 to 12.6 and 1.32 to 1.68 times as much as those of a CPU and a single GPU, respectively. The application of a large-scale rainstorm inundation simulation shows the excellent acceleration performance of the model compared to previous research. In addition, the greater the number of computational grids included in the simulation, the more significant the effect on the acceleration computing performance. The proposed model efficiently predicts the spatial variation in the inundation water depth. The simulation results provide guidance for urban rainstorm inundation management, and they improve the time and efficiency of urban flood emergency decision-making.
A new evaluation framework for the assessment of wastewater heat recovery potential coupled with wastewater reuse
Authors: Ramadhan Eza , Oh Jeill 
Published: November 2023

Abstract

The integration of wastewater heat recovery (WWHR) and wastewater reuse offers a numerous advantage, making its application possible in various sectors. Nevertheless, this concept faced challenges to the identification of appropriate location. Existing research lacks comprehensive evaluation methods that encompass a various factor for effective decision-making. This study introduces a new evaluation framework that involves different aspects, including thermal energy potential and spatial distribution analysis. The novelty of this research lies in its unique focus on the combination of WWHR and wastewater reuse. Moreover, it introduces a structured evaluation framework that considers multiple criteria and expert opinions, enhancing decision-making precision. Multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) was applied to select assessment criteria, which were categorized into three aspects: water–energy supplier, water–energy consumers, and water–energy station. The relative importance of criteria was determined using the analytical hierarchical process (AHP). The results of the AHP highlight significance of factors: treated wastewater flow rate; treated wastewater temperature; water–energy supply distance, and type of water–energy consumer. These factors were assigned weight values of 0.297, 0.186, 0.123, and 0.096, respectively. It is emphasizing their influence in the decision-making process that potential locations depend on the water–energy supplier and water–energy consumer as supply and demand sources.
¿Se puede educar el criterio sobre el juicio moral? Una perspectiva crítica al intuicionismo social y al racionalismo kolhberiano
Authors: Morandín Ahuerma Fabio , Salazar Morales Jaime 
Published: November 2023

El dualismo razón-emoción infiere que existen dos esferas para la valoración ética: una racional, de pensamiento lógico con el que se toman decisiones morales ponderadas, y otra, en la misma persona, no racional, emotiva, que responde de manera automática a los estímulos y a las impresiones. Una de las propuestas para salvar esta zanja bivalente es el enfoque de intuicionismo social, que amalgama tanto la posición emotiva-intuitiva para la construcción del juicio moral como elementos antropológicos, sociales y culturales que forman el criterio definitivo de la persona para enfrentar dilemas morales. Otras posturas, entretanto, plantean que el juicio moral se construye de manera gradual y progresiva desde la educación, de forma racional. En este trabajo se critican las dos teorías pues se considera que generan una dicotomía reduccionista ―y por momentos excluyente― entre los procesos racionales formativos de la moral y las impresiones generadas por las emociones. Se concluye que sí es posible educar el criterio para el juicio moral porque, en el fondo, no hay una dicotomía excluyente entre intuición y razonamiento, sino que, en cambio, se complementan.

Published: November 2023

Introduction:
Comorbidities are increasing in people living with HIV (PLHIV), and
different treatment options have advantages and disadvantages. It is important to compare information
from real-life treated cases. The aim of this study was to retrospectively evaluate the data on
efficacy and clinical and laboratory findings during different antiretroviral therapies.

Methods:
Retrospective file data of 47 PLHIV using Dolutegravir and Lamivudine (3TC/DTG),
Tenofovir Alafenamide Emtricitabine and Elvitegravir Cobicistat (EVG/c/TAF/FTC) and Tenofovir
Disoproxil Fumarate and Emtricitabine and Efavirenz (EFV/FTC/TDF) were analyzed. Data
of the patients at baseline and 12 months after antiretroviral therapy (ART) were compared.

Results:
About 47 PLHIV were included in the study. Of the patients, 22 (46.8%) were in the
3TC/DTG group, 19 (40.4%) in the EVG/c/TAF/FTC, and 6 (12.8%) in the EFV/FTC/TDF
group. After 12 months of treatment, BMI, HIV-RNA, CD4, WBC, hemoglobin, MCV, PDW,
RDW, platelet count, creatinine, eGFR, HDL, AST, glucose values of the 3TC/DTG group were
significantly different (p<0.05). After 12 months of treatment, BMI, HIV-RNA, CD4 count,
MCV, creatinine, eGFR, HDL, LDL, TG, TC, AST, and HOMA-IR values of the
EVG/c/TAF/FTC treatment group were significantly different (p<0.05). After 12 months of treatment,
HIV RNA, total bilirubin, and LDL values in the EFV/FTC/TDF treatment group were statistically
different (p<0.05).

Conclusion:
All treatment groups showed a decrease in HIV-RNA and an increase in CD4 at the
end of one year. While CD4 elevation is lower in EFV recipients than in integrase inhibitor (INSTI)
recipients, weight gain is higher in INSTI recipients. While the lipid profile was more positively
affected in the 3TC/DTG group, lipid profiles were more negatively affected in the
EVG/c/TAF/FTC group, although liver and kidney functions were preserved.
Bioactivity-guided Separation of Antinociceptive and Antioxidant Subfractions from Alkaline Chloroform Fraction of Fenugreek Seeds (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.) in an Animal Model
Authors: Asadi Amir , Mandegary Ali , Pournamdari Mostafa , Abbasi Mahboobe , Mohamadi Neda , Sharififar Fariba 
Published: November 2023

Background:
Antinociceptive effect of fenugreek seeds (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.)
has been reported in different animal models in response to various chemical or thermal stimuli. In a
recent study, alkaline chloroform fraction (AKC) of this plant has exhibited the greatest analgesic
effect.

Objective:
In the present study, to isolate the active component(s) from the plant, the subfractions
resulting from AKC column chromatography were evaluated in an animal model for anti-nociception
effect.

Methods:
From the 17 separated fractions, 5 major fractions (F4, F6, F14, F15 and F16) were used for
the formalin test at three different doses (2.5, 5 10 mg/kg). Antioxidant activity of the most active
subfractions was studied too.

Results:
Subsections F16 and F14 (5, 10 mg/kg) showed the greatest analgesic effect and reduced,
which was similar to morphine and even stronger than morphine in some doses. The greatest antioxidant
activity was observed by F14 (radical inhibition percentage of 17.34± 0.14 in DPPH assay, reduction
power percentage of 74.05±4.23 in RPA versus green tea (91.68± 3.04 and 97.59± 6.24 in
DPPH assay and RPA test respectively). The absorbance of F14 was 0.25±0.11 in the FTC method in
comparison to ascorbic acid 10 μg/ml and 100 μg/ml (0.72±0.33 and 0.05±0.41 respectively).

Conclusion:
Separated subfractions exhibited more antinociceptive effect than AKC fraction, so
further separation can lead to the acquisition of antinociceptive compound (s), while AKC fraction
was found to be more potent antioxidant than separated sub-fractions in all three experiments. So,
most likely, the anti-nociception effect of subfractions might be achieved via other mechanisms than
antioxidant activity. Based on phytochemical screening, AKC and all sub-fractions especially F14,
F15 and F16 were positive for the presence of alkaloids and only F14 was positive for flavonoids.

Published: November 2023

Background:
Previous studies indicate a close relationship between the severity of
COVID-19 and oxidative stress. N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) is an enzyme that metabolizes a
wide range of xenobiotics and plays an important role in the regulation of reactive oxygen species,
consequently contributing to the development of oxidative stress.

Aim:
To determine the impact of NAT2 gene variants on the risk of developing and the progression
of severe COVID-19-associated pneumonia in patients from the Poltava region of Ukraine.

Methods:
The study included 117 patients who were diagnosed with severe COVID-19 pneumonia
and received treatment in the intensive care unit. The NAT2 gene variants were identified
through the PCR-RFLP method.

Results:
The presence of the AA genotype of the A803G variant in patients with severe
COVID-19 pneumonia is associated with an almost 3-fold reduction in the risk of lethal outcomes.
The presence of the TT genotype of the C481T variant was associated with the need for artificial
lung ventilation. Patients in the study group with a heterozygous GA genotype of the
G590A variant demonstrated a notable rise in the risk of developing systemic inflammatory response
syndrome and acute respiratory distress syndrome, with a nearly 2.5-fold and 3-fold increase,
respectively. The G857A variant was not associated with the risk of developing the above--
mentioned complications in the examined patients.

Conclusion:
The obtained results suggested that the NAT2 gene variants might influence the incidence,
course, and adverse consequences of COVID-19.
Reduction of Nitrate and Acrylamide in Heat-processed Meats using treatment with Lactobacillus Casei and Plant Extracts
Authors: Abbasi Mahsa , Behbahani Mandana , Roumi Mehrnaz 
Published: November 2023

Background:
Food security has always been a concern in the multi-factorial systems
analysis of health and wellbeing. The presence of nitrate and acrylamides in cooked meat leads to
negative health outcomes.

Objective:
This study aimed to reduce nitrate and acrylamide content in different kinds of meats
(chicken, turkey, lamb, beef, quail, and fish) using some plant extracts and lactobacillus treatment.

Methods:
The extracts were prepared from Coriandrum sativum, Nigella sativa, and Thymus
leaves and stem. The used bacteria was Lactobacillus casei subsp. rhamnosus LCR6013. Acrylamide and nitrate were measured by liquid chromatography and colorimetric spectrophotometry
methods

Results:
The results showed that both bacterial treatment and plant extracts could reduce the
amount of acrylamide and nitrate. The most reduction in the amount of acrylamide and nitrate was
obtained by adding Thymus and Nigella sativa extracts, followed by coriander extract and bacterial inoculum. Also, bacterial treatment was more effective for nitrate reduction than acrylamide.

Conclusion:
It was concluded that the plant extracts and bacterial treatment are appropriate solutions to reduce the amount of acrylamide and nitrate during the baking process of meat.
Marital Satisfaction in Postpartum Women: The Role of Personality, Body Image Satisfaction, Anxiety, and Sexual Function
Authors: Youseflu Samaneh , Maleki Azam , Niroomand Soudabeh 
Published: November 2023

Background:
The postpartum period is considered a vulnerable and stressful period for
many women due to various hormonal, physical, and psychosocial changes, such as adapting to
parental rules, changes in body and self-image, loss of autonomy, breastfeeding, and taking care
of the baby

Objective:
This study aimed to test a conceptual model considering the interrelated role of anxiety,
body image satisfaction, sexual function, type of personality, income, and education on women’s
marital satisfaction. Also it also aimed to test the mediating role of sexual function and anxiety.

Methods:
In this cross-sectional study, 447 lactating women were recruited from January to April
2019. Women answered some questionnaires including a socio-demographic checklist, female sexual
function index (FSFI), Body Self-Relation Questionnaire (BSRQ), the Enrich Marital Satisfaction,
and the NEO Personality Inventory (NEO PI-R). Data were analyzed using the descriptive
test, and Path analysis was done with LISREL software.

Results:
Results show that sexual function (β= 0.44), anxiety (β= -0.26), and educational level (β=
0.47) are the main predictors of marital satisfaction (dependent variable). Sexual function and anxiety
were two main mediators; variables, such as anxiety (β= -0.35), body image satisfaction (β=
0.19), and extraversion personality (β= 0.19) (independent variables), with an effect through sexual
function, can impress marital satisfaction indirectly.

Conclusion:
Identifying relationships between anxiety, educational level, sexual function, anxiety,
body image, and personality with the quality of life of postpartum women highlights the importance
of designing interventions to improve marital satisfaction. Given these relationships, it is recommended
that health professionals educate women about body changes during postpartum and
find ways to improve mothers' marital satisfaction.
Prospective Approaches of Herbal Novel Delivery System with Special
Reference to the Herbal Nanosciences
Authors: Prakash Kartikay , Tiwari Shashank 
Published: November 2023

:
Medicinal and culinary uses of plants date back centuries. Projects on a global scale are
conducting laboratory research to identify plants with therapeutic properties, with the ultimate goal
of developing such compounds into medicines with acceptable drug delivery mechanisms and bringing
them to market. Non-synthetic medications derived from plant or herbal sources have attracted a
lot of interest because of their high tolerability and low likelihood of adverse medication reactions.
All diseases, the theory goes, can be cured by something found in nature. Medicines can be taken in
a wide variety of forms, including tablets, capsules, powders, semi-liquid extracts, tinctures, decoctions,
medicinal teas, solutions, and more. Longer release, patient adherence, and other objectives
necessitate adjustments to herbal medications. Researchers into novel drug delivery systems had hitherto
overlooked herbal remedies due to a lack of scientific validation and the challenges inherent in
processing, standardizing, extracting, and identifying them. Transdisciplinary research and cuttingedge
isolation, purification, and identification techniques have led to the development of novel herbal
compositions. Bioactive plant extracts and phytoconstituents are used in a wide variety of Nano-
Emulsions, microspheres, transferosomes, implants, and ethosomes. Compared to herbal remedies,
novel formulations fared better. Among these advantages are increased solubility, bioavailability,
toxicity, pharmacological activity, stability, delivery duration, and resistance to physical and chemical
degradation. As a result, the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of herbal medications
can be enhanced by the use of novel drug delivery systems, making them safer and more
effective.

This article aims to provide a concise description of the many new drug delivery techniques that have
been created for the administration of herbal medications. The ultimate goal is to increase the efficacy
of therapies and to learn more about their significance and worldwide appeal.
Matrix Metalloproteinases in Oral Cancer Pathogenesis and their Use in Therapy
Authors: Maurya Stuti , Prasad Divya , Mukherjee Sayali 
Published: November 2023

Abstract:
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are proteolytic enzymes that aid in extracellular matrix (ECM)
remodeling. MMPs destroy the extracellular matrix, causing tumor growth and metastasis. MMPs are involved in
the spread and metastasis of oral cancer. High levels of MMPs and oral squamous cell carcinoma have been
linked to cancer prognosis. Modern medicine aims to prevent the illness from spreading through early intervention
and examining changes in MMP genes. MMP gene polymorphism has recently been identified as one of the
factors predicting susceptibility or risk in the development of oral carcinoma. This review aims to provide insight
into the function of MMP subtypes involved in cancer. The genetic polymorphism in MMP genes and its predictive
value in risk evaluation have been elaborated. Novel personalized therapeutic approaches for oral cancer, like
the use of MMP inhibitors, nanoparticle-mediated targeting of MMP, or gene silencing by microRNA, can be
designed.

It is a moral duty to act in a way that considers the welfare of both people and the planet.
When constructing, two factors should be considered: the sustainability of the developmentrelated
workforce and the state of the world after construction. Many experts have achieved notable
reforms in the civil infrastructure systems (CIS) sector in the past. However, additive manufacturing
(AM) does not seem to be properly understood by the CIS business. This survey examines
how all the fundamental components used by AM in CIS, such as metals, cement, and polymers,
are utilized. The goal of this study is to foster AM innovation, particularly in the CIS, and to
provide an overview of AM development from 2011 to 2022. Additionally, the various AM techniques
used to construct the aforementioned structures are presented. The audit research suggests
that AM might be beneficial in the CIS industry due to the fact that residences, additions, and
seats were constructed using this technique. Photos of the constructed structures are also included
to enhance the reader's understanding. It is generally assumed that implementing AM tactics in the
CIS industry may reduce material consumption, expedite the development process, and enhance
employee safety. Due to the limited amount of available research, further investigation into polymer
printing and metal printing is recommended.

O presente artigo tem como objetivo compreender como as autorias de pesquisadoras trans/travestis foram forjadas no Instagram, a partir de uma etno(queer)hipergrafia online, noção derivada da dissertação de mestrado de um dos autores. O respectivo estudo, com suporte no referencial teórico dos Estudos Queer e abordagem a partir da cibercultura e da pesquisa-formação, dialoga com as questões sobre autoria e hiperescrita de si, analisando o “ser e estar” na rede. A experiência da etno(queer)hipergrafia permitiu a análise sobre uma múltipla linguagem proporcionada pela convergência das mídias no Instagram. Partimos do diálogo com as pesquisadoras trans, que habitam e não habitam o espaço acadêmico, visando a desbravar um vasto corpo de produções científicas que operam em rede e com autoria. Portanto, ao compreender a importância das autorias trans para o campo intelectual, avançamos para questões que adentram o campo da docência universitária, do fazer político e da efetivação da epistemologia trans como campo de produção do saber.
