AbstractThe timing and specificity of oligodendrocyte myelination during development, as well as remyelination after injury or immune attack, remain poorly understood. Recent work has shown that oligodendrocyte progenitors receive synapses from neurons, providing a potential mechanism for neuronal-glial communication. In this study, we investigated the importance of these neuroglial connections in myelination during development and during neuronal plasticity in the mouse hippocampus. We used chemogenetic tools and viral monosynaptic circuit tracing to analyze these connections and to examine oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs) proliferation, myelination, synapse formation, and neuronal-glial connectivityin vivoafter increasing or decreasing neuronal activity levels.We found that increasing neuronal activity led to greater OPC activation and proliferation. Modulation of neuronal activity also altered the organization of neuronal-glial connections: while it did not impact the total number of RabV-labeled neuronal inputs, or the number of RabV-labeled inhibitory neuronal (IN) inputs, it did alter the number of RabV-labeled excitatory neuron to OPC connections. Overall, our findings support the idea that neuronal activity plays a crucial role in regulating OPC proliferation and activation as well as the types of neuronal inputs to OPCs, indicating that neuronal activity is important for OPC circuit composition and function.

Published: October 2023

Background: The mainstay of managing severe β-thalassemia remains lifelong blood transfusion. Mismatched red blood cell phenotypes between donors and recipients in multiple blood transfusions can result in the development of alloimmunization in recipients. The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of major and subgroup antigens and their phenotypes in thalassemia major patients.
Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional descriptive study was performed on 105 patients with thalassemia major who referred to Baghaei Hospital in Ahvaz in 2021. Their alloimmunization to erythrocyte antigens was determined with standard tubular antibody search kits.
Results: Among the thalassemia major patients participating in the study, 51 were female (48.45%). The mean age of the participants was 21.10 ± 5.8 years. Out of the 105 patients studied, 26 had detectable alloantibodies in the serum (24.7%). The two groups of patients with positive and negative alloantibodies were significantly different in terms of Rh and C blood groups (P-values of 0.03 and 0.05, respectively). There was no significant association between the existence alloantibody and age, gender, spleen condition and the time of first transfusion (P > 0.05).
Conclusion: It was concluded that red blood cell matching, at least for Rh and C groups, is necessary to prevent alloimmunization in thalassemia major patients.

Introduction: Construction industries have a complex nature, so they have a high rate of occupational accidents. Construction workers are known as one of the most stressful jobs. In addition to the mental health of employees, occupational stress also has a negative effect on the safety of the workplace. The present study investigates occupational accidents and job stress in a construction company and its relationship with the demographic characteristics of employees.
Materials and Methods: In the present study, occupational accident reports in a construction company were examined. After removing the incomplete reports, the information on 100 accidents such as the type of accident, the cause of the accident, the consequence of the accident, and the person who experienced the accident was collected. After collecting the accident data, the job stress of the injured employee was checked using the Osipow Job Stress Questionnaire. Data analysis was done in SPSS-24 software.
Results: The results showed that slipping and falling from a height had the highest frequency (41%), and electrocution had the lowest frequency (8%) among the accidents. The majority of the injured employees (96%) were placed in the moderate to severe stress group. No significant relationship was found between occupational accidents and demographic variables (P>0.05). Also, a positive and significant relationship was found between job experience and job stress (P<0.05).
Conclusion: The results of this study showed that it is necessary to take safety measures to reduce fall accidents. Due to the negative effects of occupational stress, it is recommended to implement measures such as developing a training program and holding stress management workshops, increasing organizational support, and identifying and adjusting stress sources.

Authors: Z Ordudari , M Rismanchian 
Published: October 2023

Introduction: Plasma is considered the fourth state of matter. Non-thermal plasma is more popular due to its unique features such as easy operation, quick reaction at ambient temperature, and short residence time. In this study, the application of plasma technology in air pollution control will be reviewed.
Materials and Method: In this study, Science Direct, Google Scholar, ISI, Scopus, and Pubmed search engines were used. The keywords searched included plasma, cold plasma, thermal plasma, air pollution control, and non-thermal plasma from 2016 to 2022.
Results: Plasma catalysis is a useful tool for increasing pollutant degradation and energy efficiency in processes. Nevertheless, some limiting factors including the cost of catalysts, the possible cost required for their stabilization, and the resulting secondary pollution must be taken into account.
Conclusion: To commercialize plasma technology, we are facing problems such as increasing the cost and applying the mentioned technology in the real environment. The simultaneous use of catalysts and plasma technology is a useful tool to increase the destruction of pollutants and energy efficiency in processes. No wastewater production and no need for reagents are advantages of the combination of dielectric barrier discharge plasma and catalyst. The combination of dielectric barrier discharge plasma and catalyst will be very attractive methods due to low energy consumption. It seems that the recent research will be in the direction of increasing efficiency, increasing speed, and flexibility, reducing the cost and energy consumption, and making the advanced systems based on cold plasma more environmentally friendly.

Published: October 2023

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) adalah kelainan yang cukup sering terjadi di Indonesia. Ketidakmampuan anak untuk memusatkan perhatian biasanya ditangani dengan pemberian medikasi dan terapi psikis maupun fisik. Terapi musik adalah terapi yang menggunakan rangsangan suara untuk meningkatkan kualitas fisik dan mental anak. Gelombang suara yang dihasilkan oleh musik dapat merangsang perkembangan otak anak dan dapat menjadi alternatif pengganti medikasi. Banyaknya jenis terapi yang dilakukan pada seorang anak dengan ADHD tidak akan maksimal ketika tidak dilakukan secara konsisten. Konsistensi terapi pada anak dengan ADHD sangat bergantung pada orangtua yang juga berperan sebagai terapis bagi anaknya, namun kondisi orangtua saat ini memiliki wawasan yang kurang untuk membantu konsistensi terapi. Penelitian bertujuan untuk mengkaji fungsi-fungsi instrumen musik sebagai sarana terapi musik. Metode pada penelitian ini adalah kualitatif, dilakukan dengan menguji interaksi jenis-jenis instrumen musik pada anak ADHD dan wawancara terhadap terapis ADHD untuk mencari variabel-variabel yang dapat menjadi acuan penggunaan instrumen musik sebagai sarana terapi ADHD. Hasil dari penelitian ini menunjukkan adanya hubungan antara desain instrumen musik dengan kegiatan terapi. Hasil ini dapat menjadi pertimbangan dalam perancangan produk instrumen musik sebagai media terapi anak ADHD.

Abstract
This case study focuses on an offshore brown field in the Caspian Sea. The field is multilayered terrigenous sequence characterized by more than three kilometers of gas, condensate and oil reservoirs with changing formation water salinity. The conventional methodology adopted for producing stacked clastic sands has been to produce the deeper sands first, deplete these, and to then continue perforating stratigraphically shallower sands. This strategy is not without risk on this field because the rotated flower structures and rapid burial history often means there is high potential to miss potentially productive zones. This has a cost and production impact with additional infill wells, workovers, and near well sidetracks the result. By better understanding reservoir heterogeneity and ‘production baffles’ present within the structures as part of an active surveillance program it is possible to produce a more robust model to optimize infill well production and existing well performance. To achieve this a continuous pulsed neutron logging campaign is ongoing and this paper will demonstrate the added value the logging program brings to the field development in terms of production and reducing the number of inactive wells requiring re-completion. Proposed case study explains the workflow and result of extensive reservoir surveillance campaign performed with pulsed neutron logging tool. This data combined with open hole and production logs provided good information to understand the remaining potential of the field. Secondary gas cap expansion, edge water encroachment, bypassed oil bearing zones and current water saturation investigation allowed successful recompletion and intervention of inactive or low producing wells. The above-mentioned cased hole logging campaign resulted in significant oil production increase (more than 200%) and water rate decrease (30%) compare to initial results.
