Abstract

This study advances hydraulic fracturing simulations in shale reservoirs using two computational paradigms, Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) and the Variational Quantum Eigensolver (VQE). PINNs are employed to solve Nordgren’s equation, which governs fracture width evolution, by embedding physical laws into the neural network architecture. Using TensorFlow on Google Colab, the PINN training process incorporates Adam, L-BFGS, and Newton-CG optimizers, achieving an accuracy of 1.23x10-9 for fluid viscosity \mu = 8.0 Pa.s, fracture height H = 2.0m, and leak-off coefficient CL = 1.0. However, this approach demands significant computational resources, with training times exceeding 1454 seconds and memory usage of 1136 MB in some cases. Conversely, the VQE framework leverages Qiskit on Qbraid to optimize the Hamiltonian representing the fracture system. With qubit-based ansatz circuits and classical optimizers (SPSA, COBYLA, and L-BFGS), VQE achieves rapid energy minimization, converging to approximately -0.583+0j in under 2 seconds with negligible memory requirements. Spatiotemporal fracture width predictions from VQE align well with expected trends but exhibit slight oscillations due to quantum noise. This comparative study highlights the trade-offs where PINNs excel in accuracy and physical adherence, while VQE offers unparalleled efficiency for rapid computations. The hybrid application of PINN precision and VQE speed provides a robust toolkit for optimizing hydrocarbon recovery. Future research will explore integrating these paradigms for scalable, high-fidelity simulations across complex geological settings.
The Impact of Land Transfer on the Retirement Strategies of Elderly Farmers in China ——An empirical analysis based on the endogenous switching probit model
Authors: Li Shiwei , Jiang Aijun , Ma Junlong 
Published: February 2025

Abstract

with China's early entry into a moderately aging society, the aging problem in rural areas has become increasingly prominent, and the pension problem of elderly farmers has become the focus of social attention. Based on the data of the 2018 China Health and pension Survey (Charls), this paper uses the endogenous transformation probit model to analyze the impact of land transfer on elderly farmers' pension strategies. The research shows that, first of all, after the land transfer, the elderly farmers prefer to choose family pension, which is still true after a series of robustness tests, and there are significant regional differences in this effect. The elderly farmers in the central and eastern regions and major grain producing regions prefer family pension, while the elderly farmers in the western and non major grain producing regions prefer individual pension. In addition, the mechanism analysis shows that land transfer significantly increases the possibility of children living separately from their parents, which directly promotes elderly farmers to choose family pension. Finally, factors such as age, gender, endowment insurance ownership, the need to care for grandchildren, children's satisfaction and daily living ability also have a significant impact on the elderly farmers' choice of pension strategies. Based on this, this paper puts forward a series of targeted policy recommendations. In view of the particularity of the western region, this paper puts forward some suggestions, such as strengthening family support for the elderly, building elderly care service facilities, encouraging social participation in elderly care services, and improving family economic income through industrial poverty alleviation.

Abstract

Biodiversity and its associated genetic diversity are being lost at an unprecedented rate. Simultaneously, the distributions of flora, fauna, fungi, microbes and pathogens are rapidly changing. Novel ways to capture and record genetic diversity before it is lost, and to measure population shifts and pathogen distributions are urgently required. Here we report the rapid application of shotgun long-read environmental DNA (eDNA) analysis for non-invasive biodiversity, genetic diversity and pathogen assessments from air. We also compared air eDNA with water and soil eDNA. Coupling long-read sequencing with established cloud-based biodiversity pipelines enabled a two-day turnaround from airborne sample collection to completed analysis, by a single investigator. To determine the full utility of airborne eDNA, we also conducted a local bioinformatic analysis and deep short-read shotgun sequencing. From outdoor air eDNA alone, comprehensive genetic analysis was performed including population genetics (phylogenetic placement) of a charismatic mammal (bobcat, Lynx rufus), and a venomous spider (golden silk orb weaver, Trichonephila clavipes), and haplotyping humans (Homo sapiens), from natural complex community settings, such as sub-tropical forests and temperate locations. The rich datasets also enabled deeper analysis of specific species and genomic regions of interest, including viral variant calling, human variant analysis, and antimicrobial resistance gene surveillance from airborne DNA. Our results highlight the speed, versatility, and specificity of pan-biodiversity monitoring via non-invasive eDNA sampling using current benchtop/portable and cloud-based approaches. Furthermore, they reveal the future feasibility of scaling down (equipment and temporally) these approaches for near real-time analysis. Together these approaches can enable rapid lifeform and genetic diversity detection from air, water, and sediment samples for unbiased non-targeted information-rich genomics-empowered i) biodiversity monitoring, ii) population genetics, iii) pathogen and disease vector genomic surveillance, iv) allergen and narcotic surveillance, v) antimicrobial resistance surveillance and vi) bioprospecting.

Abstract

Background
Myocardial infarction (MI) is a leading cause of death globally, with ischemic heart disease (IHD) accounting for 9.1 million deaths in 2019. In Uganda, cardiovascular diseases, including MI, are contributing to an increasing burden on the healthcare system. The prevalence of MI in the country is not well-documented, though reports suggest a growing incidence, particularly in urban areas. The objective of this study was to investigate the factors associated with myocardial infarction at Mulago Heart Institute, Uganda.
Method
This study utilized data from 615 patients who registered at the Uganda Heart Institute between January 2015 and December 2019. A logistic regression model was employed to identify the factors associated with myocardial infarction.
Results
58.6% of the patients had experienced myocardial infarction. Significant factors found to influence the occurrence of myocardial infarction included age over 64 years (OR = 6.369; 95% CI = 2.27–17.08; p = 0.001), female gender (OR = 0.325; 95% CI = 0.13–0.79; p = 0.013), rural residence (OR = 0.114; 95% CI = 0.05–0.24; p = 0.001), obesity (OR = 1.671; 95% CI = 3.77–5.90; p = 0.031), overweight (OR = 0.775; 95% CI = 4.31–7.04; p = 0.025), hypertension (OR = 8.124; 95% CI = 4.05–16.29; p = 0.001), diabetic status (OR = 0.080; 95% CI = 0.04–0.16; p = 0.001), inactive physical activity (OR = 19.486; 95% CI = 1.72–3.53; p = 0.001), tobacco use (OR = 1.608; 95% CI = 4.30–5.24; p = 0.001), and alcohol consumption (OR = 7.073; 95% CI = 0.81–1.61; p = 0.016). High blood pressure was also a significant factor influencing the likelihood of myocardial infarction, with hypertensive patients showing significantly higher odds (OR = 8.124; 95% CI = 4.05–16.29; p = 0.001) compared to those with normal blood pressure.
Conclusions
These findings underscore the importance of addressing these risk factors through public health interventions, particularly focusing on hypertension management, promoting physical activity, and reducing tobacco and alcohol consumption especially in rural area, to mitigate the growing burden of myocardial infarction in Uganda.

ABSTRACT
This study aimed to analyse the pattern of rainfall and land use land cover (LULC) changes and their impact on the water level of the Hatia dam, a crucial source of the water supply for Ranchi city in Jharkhand, India. High-resolution daily-gridded rainfall and temperature data from 1991 to 2023 were collected from IMD Pune and analyzed using Mann–Kendall and Sen's slope estimator. The results showed a significant decline in annual, monsoon, post-monsoon, and winter rainfall, while pre-monsoon rainfall increased during the study period. The Google Earth Engine was used to observe LULC changes at 5-year intervals. The analysis revealed significant changes in the waterbody, built-up, forest cover, barren land, and agriculture before and after the monsoon. The analysis show that during the pre-monsoon season, the waterbody decreased from 8.68 to 4.94%, while the built-up area increased from 2.71 to 11.08%. Similar trends were observed during the post-monsoon season, with the waterbody decreasing from 10.06 to 7.3% and the built-up area increasing from 2.74 to 11.27%. It is observed from the rainfall analysis that the annual rainfall is decreasing from 1,561 to 703 mm and the reservoir surface area has also decreased from 126.31 to 37.44 ha. The findings highlight the need for sustainable water management strategies.
Synergistic effect of electrooxidation and anaerobic digestion of waste-activated sludge for microbial inactivation

Published: February 2025

ABSTRACT

Electrochemical pretreatment and anaerobic digestion (AD), as well as a combination of both processes, were studied for the treatment of waste-activated sludge (WAS) to evaluate microbial inactivation, for faecal coliforms, Salmonella spp., bacteriophages, and helminth eggs. Electrooxidation (EO) of WAS was performed in a commercial cell with boron-doped diamond electrodes. 1 L of WAS (3% total solids) was fed to the electrochemical cell in recirculation mode. The conditions tested were 19.3 mA/cm2, 30 min, and 3.8 L/min. For AD tests, raw and pretreated WAS were digested in an OxiTop® OC 110 apparatus for 15 days. Inactivation of faecal coliforms, Salmonella spp., and bacteriophages reached more than 5 logs when EO was combined with AD. In contrast, EO alone did not inactivate these parameters, while AD achieved eliminations around 3 logs. Moreover, the combined process inactivated 91% of the initial viable helminth eggs, considerably higher than AD (29%) and EO (0%). The results suggest that EO separates extracellular polymeric substances and segregates particles, including microorganisms, that are exposed to environmental factors (e.g., volatile fatty acids or ammonia) during AD, showing a synergistic effect.

HEDONIC PRICING MODEL (HPM) ON SOUTH TANGERANG RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY VALUE
Authors: Darendra Noah Sidik , Riyanto Edy 
Published: February 2025

This study investigates the effects of location, structural, and environmental attributes on residential property values in South Tangerang City, Indonesia. The research employs the Hedonic Pricing Model (HPM), formulated mathematically using the multiple linear regression approach to determine the relative contribution given by these attributes. To achieve the objective, data were collected from information on residential properties in South Tangerang City which is accessible on various property buying and selling websites. The data collection was limited from July 2023 to January 2024. The results showed that some variables affected the value of residential properties, such as distances to KRL stations, public parks, top high schools, and the Central Business District (CBD), as well as building areas, land areas, and the number of rooms (bathrooms and bedrooms). However, other variables, such as distances to malls, hospitals, universities, and population density, had no partial effect on residential property values. If we look at the types of variables, the standardized coefficient beta test revealed that building areas were the most dominant variable affecting the property values in the region. This finding is different from other results, showing that property values are local. The influence of property attributes can vary across regions, so the impacts and relationships are different, too.

Published: February 2025

Background
Health care is experiencing new opportunities in the emerging digital landscape. The metaverse, a shared virtual space, integrates technologies such as augmented reality, virtual reality, blockchain, and artificial intelligence. It allows users to interact with immersive digital worlds, connect with others, and explore unknowns. While the metaverse is gaining traction across various medical disciplines, its application in thyroid diseases remains unexplored. Subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) is the most common thyroid disorder during pregnancy and is frequently associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes.

Objective
This study aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a metaverse platform in managing SCH during pregnancy.

Methods
A randomized controlled trial was conducted at Fujian Provincial Hospital, China, from July 2022 to December 2023. A total of 60 pregnant women diagnosed with SCH were randomly assigned into two groups: the standard group (n=30) and the metaverse group (n=30). Both groups received levothyroxine sodium tablets. Additionally, participants in the metaverse group had access to the metaverse virtual medical consultations and metaverse-based medical games. The primary outcomes were adverse maternal and offspring outcomes, and the secondary outcomes included the neurobehavioral development of offspring and maternal psychological assessments.

Results
Of the 30 participants in each group, adverse maternal outcomes were observed in 43% (n=13) of the standard group and 37% (n=11) of the metaverse group (P=.60). The incidence of adverse offspring outcomes was 33% (n=10) in the standard group, compared to 7% (n=2) in the metaverse group (P=.01). The Gesell Development Scale did not show significant differences between the two groups. Notably, the metaverse group demonstrated significantly improved scores on the Self-Rating Depression Scale and the Self-Rating Anxiety Scale scores compared to the standard group (P<.001 and P=.001, respectively).

Conclusions
The use of metaverse technology significantly reduced the incidence of adverse offspring outcomes and positively impacted maternal mental health. Maternal adverse outcomes and offspring neurobehavioral development were comparable between the two groups.

Published: February 2025

Awal tahun 2023, Pemerintah Indonesia secara resmi menetapkan kenaikan cukai rokok sebesar 10-15 persen (Permenkeu 191/2022). Bea Cukai, sebagai lembaga yang bertanggung jawab atas penerapan cukai rokok di Indonesia, menggunakan 25% dari pendapatan cukai rokok untuk sektor kesehatan. Namun, masih belum jelas sejauh mana Bea Cukai mempromosikan isu kesehatan sebagai bentuk tanggung jawab dalam mengelola cukai. Penelitian ini bertujuan menyelidiki apakah Bea Cukai mempromosikan isu kesehatan melalui penerapan cukai rokok, dengan menganalisis konten dari akun X (sebelumnya dikenal dengan Twitter) @beacukaiRI. Data dikumpulkan dari akun X @beacukaiRI mulai dari 1 Januari 2020 hingga 4 Mei 2023. Total tweet yang dianalisis sebanyak 3.273, dengan 209 di antaranya mengandung kata "rokok". Konten tweet ini kemudian dianalisis untuk menentukan apakah terdapat pesan yang mempromosikan isu kesehatan masyarakat, terutama dalam konteks penerapan cukai rokok. Analisis data menunjukkan kurangnya bukti yang mendukung advokasi aktif Bea Cukai terhadap isu-isu kesehatan dalam tweet mereka yang membahas rokok. Dari 209 tweet yang mengandung kata "rokok", hanya terdapat dua tweet yang mengandung pesan terkait kesehatan masyarakat. Fokus utama akun X resmi Bea Cukai @beacukaiRI masih pada aspek regulasi cukai. Dalam konteks materi tweet, akun @beacukaiRI dapat memperluas cakupan informasi yang disampaikan kepada masyarakat, tidak hanya terkait penertiban rokok ilegal dan pemalsuan/penyalahgunaan pita cukai. Bea Cukai dapat meningkatkan promosi isu kesehatan masyarakat melalui pesan-pesan yang disampaikan dalam tweet tentang cukai rokok di media sosial, termasuk mengenai risiko dan bahaya rokok ilegal. Kolaborasi dengan Kementerian Kesehatan juga diperlukan untuk memperkuat upaya dalam promosi kesehatan, edukasi, dan regulasi yang komprehensif terkait konsumsi rokok.
