Published: January 2024

The purpose of the research is to substantiate and select the architecture of a neural network for the possibility of implementing the cognitive functions of network software for controlling a grouping of interacting small spacecraft.Methods are based on the concepts of AI theory for managing the grouping of small spacecraft - the use of adaptive methods and tools that allow making decisions, similar to the mechanisms of human thinking. With regard to space communication systems with a heterogeneous structure, AI methods and technologies are aimed at the processes of predicting the state in communication channels between network nodes and automatic reconfiguration of the network of devices based on the learning processes of a neural network (NN).Results. In the learning and forecasting mode, it is necessary to use time series of parameters and coordinates of specific pairs of small spacecraft with non-zero line of sight. Especially for time series analysis, recurrent neural networks (RNN) are used, in particular, LSTM. The idea of RNN operation is to use as input data for the current forecast not only the state vectors of the SVs and their coordinates, but also the previous value of the communication quality, actual or predictive. The paper shows that the onboard computing power of a separate MSC does not allow performing forecasting and training on board. Therefore, a dedicated ground segment of forecasting and monitoring is required, which will collect a posteriori information, periodically train the cognitive model, use it to predict the quality of communication, and transmit the results to the network nodes to build data transmission routes.Conclusion. The analysis of modern solutions and the choice of neural network architecture for the implementation of the cognitive functions of the network software for controlling the grouping of interacting small spacecraft showed that the neural networks of the Transformer architecture, which are based on the mechanism of internal attention, most fully meet the requirements of the project. The Transformer architecture allows using the entirety of a priori data, has a high learning and forecasting speed.

Published: January 2024

Background
Uncomplicated urinary tract infections (UTIs) in women are among the most common bacterial infections in primary care. Given the health threats related to the overuse of antibiotics, alternative options are of increasing importance. Patient-reported outcome measures are valuable tools for including the patients’ perspective when evaluating the efficacy of these strategies. Aiming to identify a suitable instrument to measure the severity and bothersomeness of UTI symptoms in women, we performed a systematic review of the literature and identified the Holm and Cordoba Urinary Tract Infection Score (HCUTI), which measures the severity, bothersomeness, and impact of uncomplicated UTIs on daily activities. This instrument showed sufficient content validity but needs translation and further validation before it can be used in German research.

Objective
For use in the German setting, we aim (1) to perform translation and linguistic validation of the HCUTI and (2) to evaluate content validity and psychometric properties of the German version of the HCUTI in a population of women with uncomplicated UTIs.

Methods
The HCUTI will be translated and linguistically validated using the dual-panel method. This process involves a bilingual translation panel and a lay panel to check the comprehensibility of the translation. Content validity of the translated questionnaire will be assessed using cognitive interviews according to the criteria for good content validity as recommended by the COSMIN (Consensus-based Standards for the selection of health Measurement Instruments) group involving women with uncomplicated UTIs and health care professionals. Subsequent psychometric validation of the German version of the HCUTI in a population of women with uncomplicated UTIs will include the assessment of structural validity, internal consistency, test-retest reliability, construct validity, responsiveness, and interpretability.

Results
Results of the translation and linguistic validation process and the results of the content validity study were obtained in September 2023 and will be published separately. Data on the psychometric properties of the German version of the HCUTI are anticipated in mid-2024.

Conclusions
We expect that data from the content validity study will provide important suggestions for potential modifications of the HCUTI for use in the German setting. The final version of the questionnaire will be used for the assessment of its psychometric properties in a large population of women with uncomplicated UTIs.

Authors: Sridhar Vikas S. , Bhatt Deepak L. , Odutayo Ayodele , Szarek Michael , Davies Michael J. , Banks Phillip , Pitt Bertram , Steg Ph. Gabriel , Cherney David Z.I. 
Published: January 2024

Background
In the initial analysis of the Effect of Sotagliflozin on Cardiovascular and Renal Events in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes and Moderate Renal Impairment Who Are at Cardiovascular Risk (SCORED) trial, because of early trial termination and suspension of adjudication, reconciliation of eGFR laboratory data and case report forms had not been completed. This resulted in a small number of kidney composite events and a nominal effect of sotagliflozin versus placebo on this outcome. This exploratory analysis uses laboratory eGFR data, regardless of case report form completion, to assess the effects of sotagliflozin on the predefined kidney composite end point in the SCORED trial and additional cardiorenal composite end points.

Methods
SCORED was a multicenter, randomized trial evaluating cardiorenal outcomes with sotagliflozin versus placebo in 10,584 patients with type 2 diabetes and CKD. This exploratory analysis used laboratory data to derive the eGFR components and case report form data for the non-laboratory–defined components that together made up the kidney and cardiorenal composites. AKI was also assessed in this dataset.

Results
Using laboratory data, 223 events were identified, and sotagliflozin reduced the risk of the composite of first event of sustained ≥50% decline in eGFR, eGFR <15 ml/min per 1.73 m2, dialysis, or kidney transplant with 87 events (1.6%) in the sotagliflozin group and 136 events (2.6%) in the placebo group (hazard ratio [95% confidence interval], 0.62 [0.48 to 0.82]), P < 0.001). Sotagliflozin reduced the risk of a cardiorenal composite end point defined as the abovementioned composite plus cardiovascular or kidney death with 239 events (4.5%) in the sotagliflozin group and 306 events (5.7%) in the placebo group (hazard ratio [95% confidence interval], 0.77 [0.65 to 0.91], P = 0.0023). The results were consistent when using different eGFR decline thresholds and when only including kidney death in composites (all P < 0.01). The incidence of AKI was similar between treatment groups.

Conclusions
In this exploratory analysis using the complete laboratory dataset, sotagliflozin reduced the risk of kidney and cardiorenal composite end points in patients with type 2 diabetes and CKD.

Published: January 2024

ABSTRACT
Management of NCDs is a challenge especially in low- and middle-income countries due to the double burden of communicable and non-communicable diseases, shortage of human and material resources and other competing economic priorities in these countries. This need for promotion and early detection then becomes the background for the implementation of community service, especially for congregations in the JKI Royal Family regarding non-communicable diseases. Community service was carried out for 27 congregations in the JKI Royal Family. This service includes measuring blood pressure, checking blood sugar, uric acid and cholesterol at the same time as providing education which aims to provide an understanding of abnormal examination results along with things that must be avoided. Several findings were obtained, namely 1) the majority of blood pressure examination results blood above 120/80 mmHg, 2) the majority of cholesterol examination results were predominantly more than 200 mmHg, 3) the majority of instant blood sugar and uric acid examination results were normal although values were still found above the normal range. It can be concluded that the community service process went according to schedule and received a positive response from the participants as evidenced by the involvement of the participants from the beginning to the end of the community service process.

Published: January 2024

Abstract
3D printed concrete is a relatively new technology that has been gaining popularity in the construction industry in recent years. It involves the use of a 3D printer to deposit layers of concrete in a pre-determined pattern, gradually building up a three-dimensional structure. This process offers several benefits over traditional concrete construction methods, such as the ability to create complex geometries and reduce material waste. One of the main advantages of 3D printed concrete is its ability to produce highly customized and unique designs that would be difficult or impossible to achieve using traditional construction techniques. Additionally, the precision of the 3D printing process allows for greater control over the properties of the concrete, such as its strength and porosity, which can be tailored to suit the specific requirements of the project. Another benefit of 3D printed concrete is its potential for sustainability. By minimizing material waste and using eco-friendly materials, this technology has the potential to reduce the environmental impact of construction.

Published: January 2024

Abstract
The transition to electric vehicles would be a great improvement for the population. On the other hand, this transition will make a great pressure for companies in the automotive industry, since they would have to develop such vehicles and make them better than traditional ones. Moreover, the transition period can last a long time. In the meantime, fossil fuel car sale rates are still dominant in the world. In this paper, the stock price prediction is made for two of the world’s largest competitors in automotive industry - Toyota and General Motors. The prediction covers one year, based on historical data of stock price trends using Monte Carlo simulation in two possible cases: the first, with 1,000 outcomes, and the second, with 10,000 outcomes. After price simulation, a comparative analysis of the results obtained for these two companies follows. The results show that the greater the number of outcomes specified in the prediction, the greater the variability of the results compared to the variability of historical data. In other words, the transition of General Motors to the leading position is not impossible.
Litter mixture effects on decomposition change with forest succession and are influenced by time and soil fauna in tropical mountain Andes
Authors: Castillo-Figueroa Dennis 
Published: January 2024

Abstract
In highly transformed regions, such as the tropical Andes, identifying the influence of forest succession and soil fauna on non-additive effects of litter decomposition is crucial for gaining a more realistic understanding of carbon dynamics and nutrient cycles. The objective of this paper was to analyze the changes of litter mixture effects on decomposition between different soil fauna treatments (macrofauna inclusion vs macrofauna exclusion) and successional stages (mature forests vs secondary forests) in upper Andean tropical forests along time by using a reciprocal translocation experiment of 1,344 litterbags that ran for 18 months with six common native Andean species. Thought t-tests, linear regressions, and linear mixed models, I found that litter mixture effects vary among sites and increase with time in secondary forests until the year of decomposition in litterbags with macrofauna exclusion. Mature forests exhibited strong antagonistic effects, while pronounced synergistic effects were observed in secondary forests. Although soil macrofauna did not increase significantly litter decomposition and synergistic effects in the mixtures at any of the stages of decay, it is likely that soil macrofauna may impact litter mixtures through top-down effects within soil food webs, rather than exerting a direct effect in the litter consumption as has been reported in tropical lowland ecosystems. Overall, this study supports the idea that litter mixtures exhibit significant variability across sites, can change with successional stage, and are influenced by soil fauna depending on the stage of decay in tropical Andean montane forests.

Abstract
In the present study, we investigated the structure of stomata in seven native species of Hyrcanian forests (Acer hyrcanum, A. velutinum Boiss., A. campestre, A. platanoides L., A. cappadocicum, A. monspessulanum, A. amazandaranicum), as well as non-native species that have fully adapted (A. negundo, A. negundo variegatum, and A. palmatum). We used light and electron microscopy to determine the form and position of the stomata in relation to the leaf epidermal cells. The length, width, shape, area, perimeter, and stomatal density were all measured. Our findings revealed that the stomata type of A. negundo varengiayum, A. campestre, A. hyrcanum, A. mazandaranicum and A. monsspesulanum is anomocytic, A. platanoides and A. cappadocicum have anomocytic stomata with wavy subsidiary cells, while A. palmatum has anisocytic stomata and A. velutinum has parasitic stomata. A. negundo has actinocytic stomata. Regarding the location of stomata relative to adjacent epidermal cells, we identified three types. In the first type, the stomata were flush with adjacent epidermal cells (A. cappadocicum, A. negundo, A. platanoides). In the second type, the stomata were higher (A. negundo variegatum), and in the third type, the stomata were lower (A. velutinum, A. monspesulanom, A. campestre, A. mazandaranicum, A. hyrcanum). The principal component analysis was used to determine the essential stomatal traits in differentiating between species. We also investigated the distribution of trees in the coordinate axis space based on two main components and performed cluster analysis based on stomatal characteristics. A. platanoides, A. negundo, A. negundo variegatum were in one cluster, while the other species were in separate clusters. The calculation of dissimilarity among the studied species revealed the lowest similarity between A. negundo and A. hyrcanum and the highest similarity between A. campestre and A. mazandaranicum. The results of the discriminant analysis identified stomatal density as the essential factor in differentiation between the studied species.
