Abstract
Advanced video coding, or H.264/AVC has been proved to possess a highly complex encoder with a block motion estimation (ME) scheme, entropy coding and a prediction module. Typical applications of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) require real-time video compression. As a result, the current study aims to develop an approach to decrease the computing complexity of the prediction module. The software algorithm that was developed helps basic functions to be achieved in the prediction module. In fact, the user can set up, manage, deploy, and monitor the UAVs in real time. Evaluations obtained in this paper have shown that the adopted approach can significantly improve the execution time of coding and, consequently, the network performance. When comparing the original method of the Laboratory of Electronics and Information’s software with the suggested approach, experimental results show that the proposed method had achieved an increase in execution time from 3.544–15.574 %.

Published: November 2023

Older adults with cognitive impairment frequently have reduced balance and are at high risk for falling. We investigated the concurrent validity of the Physiological Profile Assessment (PPA) and the Timed Up and Go (TUG) test with computerised posturography in 13 older adults (mean (SD) age 80 (8) years) with mild-to-moderate cognitive impairment (mean (SD) Mini-Mental State Examination score, 19 (9)). Spearman’s rho demonstrated: moderately good positive correlation between PPA (muscle strength) and posturography rising index (rs = 0.699, p = 0.01) and posturography mediolateral sway during eyes open standing on a foam surface (rs = 0.604, p = 0.04); good negative correlations between PPA anteroposterior sway (eyes closed) and posturography sway velocity (eyes open) standing on foam (rs = –0.745, p = 0.01) and Romberg ratios of PPA and posturography (rs = –0.698, p = 0.02); moderately good positive correlations between TUG and posturography (left step quick turn time; left turn sway; rs = 0.548, p = 0.04; 0.646, p = 0.02) and good-to-excellent negative correlation between TUG and posturography (rising index rs = –0.719, p = 0.01). Both tests appear valid measures of balance in older adults with mild-to-moderate cognitive impairment; however, we suggest both are used.

Published: November 2023

AbstractPolicymakers have recognized the urgent need to create AI data protections, yet the interests of older adults have thus far not been well represented. We report peoples' perspectives on small AI companion robots for older adults, along with attendant issues related to facial expression and conversation data collection and sharing. Data are from a cross‐sectional survey of an online cohort of the Oregon Center for Aging & Technology at Oregon Health & Science University, with a response rate of 45% and analytic sample of 825 (mean age: 63.9, rang: 25‐88). Logistic regressions examined relationships between comfort and data sharing preferences with socio‐demographic characteristics. Just over half (52.3%) were somewhat or very comfortable with an artificial companion robot during the pandemic and 45.2% were under normal circumstances. In adjusted models, being younger, male, and having lower formal education and greater confidence in computer use were associated with greater likelihood of being comfortable with a companion robot. Those who were at least somewhat comfortable with robots recording their conversations (15%) or reported that they would probably want their facial expressions read for emotion detection (52.8%) also selected with whom they want these data shared. Free text comments were thematically analyzed. Primary themes were that robot‐based data collection constitutes over monitoring and invasion of privacy, with participants predicting data privacy, security, and use issues. These findings about the importance potential users place on data protection and transparency demonstrate a need for law and policy to act to enable trustworthy, desirable companion robots.

Authors: AKDEMİR AKTAŞ Hilal , FARIMAZ Mine , AKKAŞOĞLU Sinem , KAYA Zeynep Bengisu 
Published: November 2023

Aim: The flexor retinaculum lies between the medial malleolus of the tibia and the medial process of the calcaneus. It converts grooves on the tibia and calcaneus into the tarsal tunnel. The aim of this study was to analyze the morphometry, the course, and the shape of the flexor retinaculum covering the tarsal tunnel in formaldehyde-fixed cadavers.
Material and Methods: Six lower extremities of four formaldehyde-fixed cadavers (four right sides, and 2 left sides) were examined to evaluate the morphometry of the flexor retinaculum. The cadavers were two females and two males with an age range of 60-89 years. A digital caliper (150 mm) and a light microscope were used for measuring parameters. The central length, proximal, midpoint, and distal width, thickness, course, and shape of the flexor retinaculum were examined in this study.
Results: The mean central length of the flexor retinaculum was found 42.26±5.18 mm. The mean proximal, midpoint, and distal width of the flexor retinaculum were 29.29±7.29 mm, 29.92±3.66 mm, and 29.76±8.13 mm, respectively. The mean of the thickness was measured at 234.94 µm. The flexor retinaculum coursed vertically in four extremities and coursed obliquely in two extremities. The shape of the retinaculum was triangular in five extremities and quadrangular in only one extremity.
Conclusion: The morphometric data obtained from this study can help surgeons during the operations of the tarsal tunnel syndrome. To our knowledge, the width and course of the flexor retinaculum were examined for the first time in this study.

Published: November 2023

Background: Butterfly pea flowers (Clitoria ternatea L.) are edible plants found in Asian countries that have several phytochemical compounds thathave potential anti-obesity and anti-dyslipidemia. From several in vivo studies, the administration of various extracts of butterfly pea flowers has different effects to reduce body weight (BW) or body mass index (BMI), and lipid profiles.
Objectives: To analyze systematically the effects of butterfly pea flowers on BW or BMI and lipid profiles in rodents with or without obesity.
Methods: This study used the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) and bias risk using the Systematic Review Centre for Laboratory Animal Experimentation (SyRCLEs).Original articles were from Google Scholar, PubMed, ResearchGate, and Science-Direct with criteria: randomized control trial (RCT), published from 2019 to 2023, rodents, and research outcomes (BW and lipid profiles).
Results: Four original articles met the research criteria. Giving 1,000 mg/kg BW of the aqueous extract of butterfly pea flower for seven days reduced BW. Another study reported that giving 130 mg/kg BW butterfly pea flowers kombucha inhibited weight gain. Doses of 0.25 and 0.50% of the aqueous extracts of butterfly pea flowers for 15 weeks did not affect BW butthe dose of 2% prevented weight gain.
Conclusions: Butterfly pea flowers have beneficial effects on reducing BW and improving lipid profiles in rodents with severaldiets although vary in animal models, diet types, extraction methods, and research design. This study becomes important evidence for further study.

Published: November 2023

Summary
High-density cesium/potassium (Cs/K) formate fluids were successfully utilized from reservoir drilling to upper completion installation in five productive Martin Linge high-rate gas wells. Four wells were completed with openhole gravel pack (OHGP) and one with standalone sand screens.
The gravel packing operation marks what is considered to be the highest density carrier fluid OHGP successfully completed worldwide, with a specific gravity (SG) of 2.06. A complex operation under pressure and temperature conditions (745–780 bar and 135–140°C) that almost qualify as high pressure/high temperature (HP/HT), including managed pressure drilling (MPD), overbalanced screen running, and openhole gravel packing, was simplified by using the same base brine throughout the operation.
Cs/K formate reservoir drilling fluid (RDF) and screen-running fluid were designed with biopolymeric additives and minimal calcium carbonate bridging particles. Clear Cs/K formate brine was chosen as gravel pack (GP) carrier fluid. The use of Cs/K formate fluids for all stages of the operation reduced the complexity of transitioning between the operational stages. In addition, the reservoir was only exposed to one filtrate without application of damaging weighting solids.
The drilling fluid contributed to successful MPD and delivered wells with very good hole quality in the reservoir, which consisted of interbedded sandstone, coal stringers, and shale. The shale-stabilizing properties of concentrated formate brine–based fluids provided acceptable conditions for extended openhole time and allowed additional logging runs, including pore pressure measurements, under near-HP/HT conditions, before running the screens. One bottom-up cleanout was conducted before the screen-running fluid was circulated in and the screens installed. The spurt and seepage losses were low throughout the drilling and screen-running phases. No breaker treatment was required in any of the wells. All wells have proved to have good initial productivity and high well productivity index.
The successful OHGP operations performed with the high fluid densities required in Equinor’s Martin Linge field have set a new standard for well completions in challenging high-pressure environments.
