ETSI ITS: A Comprehensive Overview of the Architecture, Challenges
and Issues
Authors: Lone Faisal Rasheed , Verma Harsh Kumar , Sharma Krishna Pal 
Published: January 2024

Abstract:
Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) have attracted the attention of developing
nations because of their potential to enhance mobility and road safety, two issues that have become
increasingly pressing in recent years. Information and Communication Technology (ICT)
has accentuated every industry, and the automobile industry is no exception, allowing vehicles
to communicate among themselves and the surrounding infrastructure for information exchange
using Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) communication. Vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V), vehicle-
to-infrastructure (V2I), vehicle-to-pedestrian (V2P), and vehicle-to-cloud (V2C) connections
are made possible through the use of state-of-the-art networking technology. With EVehicles
at the forefront, the vision of an ITS expands further. ITS is anticipated to offer wireless
network-based services including vehicle occupant entertainment, traffic flow optimization,
and accident prevention. Most nations have been trying to standardize the ITS architecture,
and the European Union (EU) has been at the forefront by developing and standardizing
the ETSI (European Telecommunications Standards Institute) architecture. As the most mature
ITS architecture, this paper thoroughly explains the ETSI architecture in a single document for
both the researcher's and newcomers' ease. Additionally, the challenges and issues pertinent to
adopting and implementing the ITS ecosystem have also been discussed in detail.
The Effect of Preoperative Gabapentin on the Duration of Spinal Anaesthesia in Patients Undergoing Lower Limb Surgery: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial
Authors: Sobhy Amr , Saleh Lobna A. , Ali Mohamed Mourad , Refaat Sameh Ahmed 
Published: January 2024

Background:
In the present study, we aim to examine oral gabapentin efficacy as an adjuvant to spinal anesthesia.

Methods:
This prospective, clinical, randomized trial included subjects between 20 and 60 years undergoing lower limb surgeries categorized into two cohorts. Group (G) received gabapentin (900 mg) in two divided doses prior to spinal anesthesia; (300 mg 10 hrs prior to spinal anesthesia induction as well as 600 mg 2 hrs before spinal anesthesia). In contrast, the control Group (C) received only spinal anesthesia. The onset, as well as the duration of spinal anesthesia, were the primary outcome, while the secondary outcome was the postoperative nalbuphine consumed.

Results:
A total of 60 cases were evenly categorized into two cohorts. Both groups demonstrated no differences regarding motor and sensory block onset and duration. The group receiving preoperative gabapentin had a significant decrease in postoperative nalbuphine consumption with a mean of 20.8±9.4 mg compared to the control group, which showed an increased consumption of 28.9±10.4 mg with a p-value of 0.006. Further analysis of the Visual Analog Score (VAS) in both groups revealed that the decrease in total nalbuphine consumption was found at (8 and 10 hrs) postoperatively, with p values of 0.016 and 0009, respectively.

Conclusion:
Gabapentin administration (900 mg) within 10 hrs of surgery in two subdivided doses prior to spinal anesthesia had no effect on onset and duration of spinal anesthesia but had a delayed beneficial postoperative analgesic effect.

Analgosedation Management in the Intensive Care Unit: A Narrative Systematic Review
Authors: Lia Elena , Pucci Valentina , Raccagna Cecilia , Sebastiani Stefano , Dekel Boaz Gedaliahu Samolsky 
Published: January 2024

Background:
Intensive care unit (ICU) patients' pain and sedation management is a significant nursing challenge. Sedatives and muscle relaxants administration has been long used for improving patients' comfort and tolerance to mechanical ventilation. This practice led to an increase in adverse ICU outcomes in terms of health status, hospitalization stay, infections, and mortality. The use of appropriate ICU pain and sedation assessment tools is limited.

Methods:
We conducted a narrative literature systematic review (from 2010 to 2022) whose primary aims were to analyze the analgosedation definition and identify ICU patients’ pain, agitation, and sedation assessment tools; secondary aims were to explore analgesia and sedation pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatments and nurses’ perceptions and attitudes regarding analgosedation issues.

Results:
We retrieved 45 eligible articles. Analgosedation foresees early pain management - using pharmacological and non-pharmacological approaches and then, if necessary, implementing adequate sedation. Recommended assessment tools are the Behavioral Pain Scale (BPS) and the Critical Care Observational Tool (CPOT) for pain assessment, the Richmond Agitation Sedation Scale (RASS), and the Sedation Agitation Scale (SAS) for sedation assessment. Guidelines and specific protocols recommend both pharmacological and non-pharmacological approaches. Health professionals report mainly barriers (lack of adherence to guidelines and protocols, workload, reduced awareness, and own perceptions) to analgosedation correct application. The implementation of ICU analgosedation strategies requires continuous health professionals’ commitment and collaboration and valid assessment tools use.

Conclusion:
ICU analgosedation management (pain control first, and then sedation if necessary) is limited due to health professionals' knowledge gaps, inappropriate use of assessment tools, guidelines, and specific protocols. Recommended assessment tools are the BPS and CPOT for pain assessment and the RASS and SAS for sedation assessment. Interventions to improve ICU analgosedation awareness and practice include training events, the use and consultation of literature guidelines, and the use of validated assessment tools.
Supervised Rank Aggregation (SRA): A Novel Rank Aggregation
Approach for Ensemble-based Feature Selection
Authors: Jain Rahi , Xu Wei 
Published: January 2024

Background:
Feature selection (FS) is critical for high dimensional data analysis.
Ensemble based feature selection (EFS) is a commonly used approach to develop FS techniques. Rank aggregation (RA) is an essential step in EFS where results from multiple models
are pooled to estimate feature importance. However, the literature primarily relies on static
rule-based methods to perform this step which may not always provide an optimal feature set.
The objective of this study is to improve the EFS performance using dynamic learning in RA
step.

Method:
This study proposes a novel Supervised Rank Aggregation (SRA) approach to allow
RA step to dynamically learn and adapt the model aggregation rules to obtain feature importance.Method: This study proposes a novel Supervised Rank Aggregation (SRA) approach to allow
RA step to dynamically learn and adapt the model aggregation rules to obtain feature importance.

Results:
We evaluate the performance of the algorithm using simulation studies and implement
it into real research studies, and compare its performance with various existing RA methods.
The proposed SRA method provides better or at par performance in terms of feature selection
and predictive performance of the model compared to existing methods.

Conclusion:
SRA method provides an alternative to the existing approaches of RA for EFS.
While the current study is limited to the continuous cross-sectional outcome, other endpoints
such as longitudinal, categorical, and time-to-event data could also be used.
A review on Ayurveda dietetics for Amlapitta (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease) by different Ayurveda classical texts
Authors: Padmaveer PS  , Sandeep S Sagare  
Published: January 2024

Amlapitta could be a commonly experienced illness of Annavaha Srotasa (gastrointestinal system) depicted in different classical Ayurvedic writings that affects people of all ages, genders, regions, and climates. The 21st century is regarded as the modern era due to which bygone eating habits and life style is totally changed. Indulgence of food articles such as over processed, under processed and incompatible dietary preparations are the root cause of most of the non-communicable disorders now a days. Ritucharya (a seasonal regime) and Dinacharya (a diurnal regime) were some of the dos and don'ts mentioned by Acharyas. In addition to being an integral part of the regimen of good health, the Ayurvedic teachings of Acharyas also included Pathya (healthy) and Apathaya (unhealthy) as a component in the treatment of diseases. This highlights the significance of Pathya (healthy) and Apathya (unhealthy) in Ayurveda. So, it is the pressing priority to know the Pathyas (wholesome) and Apathyas (unwholesome) of Amlapitta explained by different Acharyas.

Ayurveda is an ancient science of life science since time immemorial and it was developed more than 3000 years ago. It’s based on the belief that health and wellness depend on a delicate balance between the body, mind, and spirit. Ayurveda, apart from providing various therapeutic measures for diseases, emphasizes maintenance, promotion of health, and prevention of diseases through diet and lifestyle regimens. In Ayurveda food, sleep, and celibacy are considered as the three supports (Traya Upastambha) of life. Food is the best among things that sustain life and it has been given prime importance for health. No medicine is equivalent to food. It is possible to make a person disease-free and healthy with just a proper diet. Traditional foods are foods and dishes that are passed on from generation to generation on have been consumed for many generations. For growth and development as well as maintain of health, nutritional food is highly required. So that scholar wants to know about what are the traditional food pattern and what is the status of health by taking traditional food pattern.
Impacto de estratégias de aquecimento nos sistemas de construção LSF: avaliação do conforto térmico e desempenho energético

Published: January 2024

A importância de compatibilizar um bom desempenho térmico com uma elevada eficiência energética é um desafio relevante e atual nos edifícios residenciais. Nos países do sul da Europa, o recurso aos sistemas de aquecimento é, muitas vezes, condicionado, por um fenómeno designado por pobreza energética. Neste contexto, o desafio de procurar soluções construtivas sustentáveis, que otimizem o desempenho térmico dos edifícios, é ainda mais premente.
O sistema construtivo em aço enformado a frio, Light Steel Framing (LSF), tem vindo a ocupar uma posição mais relevante no mercado e de forma crescente. No entanto, a utilização destes sistemas é ainda questionada devido à sua fraca inércia térmica. Este estudo pretende contribuir para a compreensão do comportamento térmico e do desempenho energético de edifícios em LSF localizados em climas mediterrâneos. Para apoiar este trabalho, utilizam-se duas células de teste, uma composta por materiais tradicionais (construção em betão armado e alvenaria) e uma segunda composta por construção em aço enformado a frio. Foi comparado o desempenho das duas células de teste no período de inverno, considerando-se diferentes estratégias de aquecimento (contínuo e intermitente), procurando-se assim analisar os hábitos reais de aquecimento da população, neste caso de estudo, portuguesa. A monitorização inclui a medição da temperatura do ar interior e do consumo de energia para aquecimento.
Na sequência deste trabalho, pretende-se contribuir para uma melhor compreensão do desempenho térmico e energético dos edifícios em aço enformado a frio quando comparados com edifícios de construção tradicional, bem como na capacidade destes de proporcionarem um ambiente confortável de forma mais económica e mais sustentável.
A gestão democrática no ensino: elementos para pensar o gestor escolar
Authors: Larissa Borges Barcella Julia 
Published: January 2024

Pensar o gestor escolar dentro do contexto da gestão democrática presente na Constituição Federal de 1988 e na LDBEN/1996 eleva o desafio em refletir a organização do ensino. Este artigo se propôs a apresentar o movimento da gestão democrática presente nas leis supracitadas em três diferentes contextos escolares. Para isto, foram apresentados elementos para a compreensão histórica do tema; se identificou a gestão democrática do ensino nas leis federais; e, por fim, a partir de três pesquisas, tentativas para a realização da gestão democrática em espaços escolares nos tempos atuais foram apresentadas. A pesquisa bibliográfica se deteve, sobretudo, nos estudos propostos por Peres (2016), Santos (2013) e Nascimento (2013), que abordam questões referentes ao movimento da gestão democrática em diferentes contextos e os desafios do gestor escolar. As conclusões das pesquisas conduzem a alguns pontos em comum. Ainda que em contextos diferentes, a jovem democracia brasileira e o impacto dela em uma cultura pouco nutrida de participação são questões presentes nas três pesquisas. Soma-se a isso às desigualdades sociais, estas que, por sua vez, seguem atreladas às desigualdades de rendas. Como pensar em práticas para desenvolvimento da gestão democrática quando as necessidades primárias não são atendidas? A pesquisa de Nascimento (2013) alerta para a tendência em se invisibilizar uma prática democrática em contextos de vulnerabilidade social.

Published: January 2024

O objetivo deste livro é orientar o estudante/professor/pesquisador a aplicar as normas de Informação e Documentação da Associação Brasileira de Normas Técnicas (ABNT), órgão responsável pela normalização técnica no país, para apresentação e formatação de trabalhos científicos (tese, dissertação, trabalho de conclusão de curso, artigo, pôster, etc.). Apesar de não serem atualizadas com tanta frequência, nos últimos cinco anos tivemos a atualização de normas importantes para a elaboração de Trabalhos Acadêmicos, como a NBR 6023 para elaboração de referências, em 2020 e, mais recentemente, em julho deste ano, a ABNT NBR 10520 para elaboração de citações, que não era atualizada desde 2002. Cientes da importância da elaboração de referências no meio acadêmico, assim como a normalização na produção de artigos científicos, a atualização dessas duas normas em 2018 e 2020, nos motivou a rever os conceitos e exemplos, a repaginar o antigo “manual” e a atualizá-lo para ser um guia, com novos modelos de referências não contemplados anteriormente, dando vida ao livro “Normalização de Trabalhos Acadêmicos: tese, dissertação, trabalho de conclusão de curso (TCC), artigo científico e pôster”, no ano de 2020. Dando continuidade a este projeto, seguiremos atualizando os conceitos e exemplos, sempre que necessário, como realizamos este ano, propiciando a você, pesquisador, a compilação de todas as normas atualizadas de Informação e Documentação necessárias para a formatação correta do seu trabalho científico.
Isolation and Molecular Identification of Indole Acetic Acid-Producing Endophytic Bacteria from Daun Dewa Plant (Gynura divaricata (L.) DC)
Authors: Setyowati Ratna Dewi , Pangastuti Artini , Susilowati Ari 
Published: January 2024

Indole acetic acid (IAA) is an auxin hormone that can regulate plant growth and development. Bacteria produce IAA through L-tryptophan metabolism. The purpose of this study was to determine the ability of endophytic bacteria isolated from Daun Dewa plants to produce IAA to increase the germination and growth of tomato seedlings. Isolation of endophytic bacteria was carried out by sterilizing plant surfaces. The production of IAA is done by adding L-tryptophan precursors. The results showed that there were six endophytic bacteria, and three isolates of them have the potential to produce IAA, namely: AD1.1, UD1.1, and UD2.1. The highest IAA concentration was produced by isolate AD1.1. Growth in sprouts is significantly influenced by the concentration of IAA; the higher the concentration of IAA, the longer the shoots and the roots. Based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence, these isolates belong to the genus Klebsiella.

GajahMungkur Reservoir is a freshwater ecosystem thatis located6kmsouthofWonogiri Regency,CentralJavaProvince. Zooplankton is the primary consumer in the food chain of aquatic ecosystems. One of the common zooplankton found in freshwater ecosystem is copepod. Copepod is sensitive organism and play an important role as bioindicatator of water quality. The aimed of this study was to investigate the copepods diversity in Gajah Mungkur Reservoir. The method applied to this study is exploration and application of purposive sampling techniques in sampling. Copepods were collected from three different station, namely Station 1 (fishing area), Station 2 (tourism area), and Station 3 (fish cage area or keramba). The abiotic parameters were found to be varied on each station. Results showed that Gajah Mungkur Reservoir has moderately diverse copepods species with the average of diversity index 1.21. There were 7 species of copepods found in Gajah Mungkur Reservoir which mostly dominated by Mesocyclops sp., especially in Station 1 (fishing area). Meanwhile Microcyclops sp. was only found in Station 3 (fish cage area or keramba), suggesting that this species has a potential as bioindicator in Gajah Mungkur Reservoir. This study suggest that changes in physicochemical parameters might influence the diversity and abundance of copepod in Gajah Mungkur Reservoir.

A cemetery acts as an active decomposition site and contains bacteria which most likely have antibiotic resistance. However, related data to the phenomenon is limited. This study aimed to compare the diversity of bacteria inside and outside the cemetery and examine bacterial antibiotic resistance. First, samples were collected from three different spots inside and outside the Bonoloyo public cemetery in Surakarta, Central Java. Then, the bacteria were isolated by spread plate method on NA medium and were observed using Gram staining after 48 hours of incubation. Also, bacterial resistance against cefepime, bacitracine, and ampicilin were examined. As the results, bacterial populations inside and outside the cemetery area are 3.4x106 and 4.6x106 CFU/gram, respectively, with a diversity of 38% and 34%, while 28% of isolates are collected from both areas. The result of morphological observation showed that 15 and 21 isolates are respectively round and irregular, white to yellow colour with raised (16 isolates) and flat (19 isolates) elevation. Gram staining showed 48 isolates are coccus and 2 are bacilli, with 23 isolates of Gram negative and 27 isolates of Gram positive. Bacterial isolates showed resistance against cefepime (50%-50%) and against bacitracine (52%-43%) each from both areas of the cemetery, while resistance against ampicilin was relatively low (33%-21%). The number of bacterial populations and bacterial diversity inside and outside the cemetery area are not significantly different. In fact, the resistance of the soil bacteria population collected from cemetery soil are higher than that collected from soil outside the cemetery.

Abstract
The widespread occurrence of SARS-CoV-2 infections and the diverse range of symptoms have placed significant strain on healthcare systems worldwide. Pregnancy has also been affected by COVID-19, with an increased risk of complications and unfavorable outcomes for expectant mothers. Multiple studies indicate that SARS-CoV-2 can infiltrate the placenta, breach its protective barrier, and infect the fetus. Although the precise mechanisms of intrauterine transmission remain unclear, factors such as perinatal infection, macrophages, sexual intercourse, and the virus’ interaction with host angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) and neuropilin-1 (NRP-1) proteins appear to play a role in this process. The integrity of the placental barrier fluctuates throughout pregnancy and appears to influence the likelihood of fetal transmission. The expression of placental cell receptors, like ACE2, changes during pregnancy and in response to placental damage. However, due to the consistent presence of others, such as NRP-1, SARS-CoV-2 may potentially enter the fetus at different stages of pregnancy. NRP-1 is also found in macrophages, implicating maternal macrophages and Hofbauer cells as potential routes for viral transmission. Our current understanding of SARS-CoV-2's vertical transmission pathways remains limited. Some researchers question the ACE2-associated transmission model due to the relatively low expression of ACE2 in the placenta. Existing studies investigating perinatal transmission and the impact of sexual intercourse have either involved small sample sizes or lacked statistical significance. This review aims to explore the current state of knowledge regarding the potential mechanisms of COVID-19 vertical transmission, identifying areas where further research is needed to fill the gaps in our understanding.
