Molecular genetic aberrations in the pathogenesis of multiple myeloma
Authors: Bong Ivyna Pau Ni , Esa Ezalia 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
Multiple myeloma (MM) is the second most common form of blood cancer characterized by clonal expansion of malignant plasma cells within the bone marrow. MM is a complex, progressive, and highly heterogeneous malignancy, which occurs via a multistep transformation process involving primary and secondary oncogenic events. Recent advances in molecular techniques have further expanded our understanding of the mutational landscape, clonal composition, and dynamic evolution patterns of MM. The first part of this review describes the key oncogenic events involved in the initiation and progression of MM, together with their prognostic impact. The latter part highlights the most prominent findings concerning genomic aberrations promoted by gene expression profiling (GEP) and next-generation sequencing (NGS) in MM. This review provides a concise understanding of the molecular pathogenesis of the MM genome and the importance of adopting emerging molecular technology in future clinical management of MM.

Published: October 2023

Abstract
The complexity of power quality disturbances (PQDs) is a significant risk factor in the electricity sector. An accurate and fast analysis of these disturbances provides crucial information to cover all the issues related to power quality. The main objective of this study is to explore a new analytic technique, including all kinds of disturbances that can appear in electrical networks, that differs from previous technologies such as the Fourier transform. Three methods based on the Stockwell transform, namely, the discrete orthonormal Stockwell transform (DOST), discrete cosine Stockwell transform (DCST), and discrete cosine transform (DCT), were used to analyze PQDs in time–frequency representation. These methods diagnose the disturbance's signal properties, which are dependent on resolution and absolute phase information. Nine PQDs, including normal sine waves, were mathematically modeled and used to evaluate the proposed methods. All the methods can effectively simulate and analyze PQDs. Among them, DOST is the most effective in providing clear and high-resolution time–frequency representations of signals. The classification of disturbances was fulfilled based on statistical features extracted from matrices derived from Stockwell transform-based methods, such as analytic approaches (mean, variation, standard deviation, entropy, skewness, and kurtosis). Neural networks, a method utilizing intelligence classifiers, were used for pattern recognition, and the patterns of the different methods were compared. Simulation results proved that DOST needs fewer samples than other methods; its capability to deal with signals in time–frequency resolution is also more viable. The neural network classifier has a higher accuracy rate than the K-nearest neighbor and decision tree methods and approximates the support vector machine method.

Published: October 2023

The eyes is one of the sensitive organs that can be damaged if exposed to radiation. Pb glasses are one of the radiation protection tools. The use of Pb glasses in minimal dental X-ray examinations will cause cataracts in the patient's eyes, so research has been conducted on the effectiveness of Pb glasses in dental examinations using dental panoramic plane based on radiation dose rates.Â The study aims to determine the radiation dose received after and before passing through Pb glasses, determine the effectiveness of Pb glasses during dental X-ray examinations, and evaluate the effect of using Pb glasses on patient image results. Data were collected using three Pb glasses on a dental panoramic plane irradiation. Pb glasses are fitted to patients with thin, normal and overweight categories, this is because patients have different facial shapes and sizes. Determination of radiation dose value and effectiveness was done by attaching TLD-100 to the outside and inside of the Pb glasses lens. The effect of using Pb glasses was evaluated with a radiology specialist through interviews. The results obtained were that there was no radiation dose received by the eyes after passing through Pb glasses, the effectiveness of all Pb glasses was 100%, and the use of Pb glasses did not affect the results of dental X-ray images during examinations using dental panoramic plane.

Descent Property in Sequential Second-Order Cone Programming for Nonlinear Trajectory Optimization
Authors: Xie Lei , Zhou Xiang , Zhang Hong-Bo , Tang Guo-Jian 
Published: October 2023

Sequential second-order cone programming (SSOCP) is commonly used in aerospace applications for solving nonlinear trajectory optimization problems. The SSOCP possesses good real-time performance. However, one long-standing challenge is its unguaranteed convergence. In this paper, we theoretically analyze the descent property of the [Formula: see text] penalty function in the SSOCP. Using Karush–Kuhn–Tucker conditions, we obtain two important theoretical results: 1) the [Formula: see text] penalty function of the original nonlinear problem always descends along the iteration direction; 2) a sufficiently small trust region can decrease the [Formula: see text] penalty function. Based on these two results, we design an improved trust region shrinking algorithm with theoretically guaranteed convergence. In numerical simulations, we verify the proposed algorithm using a reentry trajectory optimization problem.

Published: October 2023

Excessive accumulation of zinc (Zn) in urban soil can lead to environmental pollution and pose a potential threat to human health and the ecosystem. How to quickly and accurately monitor the urban soil zinc content on a large scale in real time and dynamically is crucial. Hyperspectral remote sensing technology provides a new method for rapid and nondestructive soil property detection. The main goal of this study is to find an optimal combination of spectral transformation and a hyperspectral estimation model to predict the Zn content in urban soil. A total of 88 soil samples were collected to obtain the Zn contents and related hyperspectral data, and perform 18 transformations on the original spectral data. Then, select important wavelengths by Pearson's correlation coefficient analysis (PCC) and CARS. Finally, establish a partial least squares regression model (PLSR) and random forest regression model (RFR) with soil Zn content and important wavelengths. The results indicated that the average Zn content of the collected soil samples is 60.88 mg/kg. Pearson's correlation coefficient analysis (PCC) and CARS for the original and transformed wavelengths can effectively improve the correlations between the spectral data and soil Zn content. The number of important wavelengths selected by CARS is less than the important wavelengths selected by PCC. Partial least squares regression model based on first-order differentiation of the reciprocal by CARS (CARS-RTFD-PLSR) is more stable and has the highest prediction ability (R2 = 0.937, RMSE = 8.914, MAE = 2.735, RPD = 3.985). The CARS-RTFD-PLSR method can be used as a means of prediction of Zn content in soil in oasis cities. The results of the study can provide technical support for the hyperspectral estimation of the soil Zn content.

The Aramaic Inscriptions from Mount Gerizim: Production, Identity, and Resistance
Authors: Economou Michael 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
The Aramaic inscriptions from Hellenistic Mount Gerizim have been the object of intense scholarly interest since their publication almost 20 years ago. Research has particularly focused on the ways that the inscriptions can inform our understanding of the emergence of a Samaritan group identity which was distinct from that of the Jews. This article seeks to contribute to these discussions by addressing 2 interrelated issues. Firstly, drawing on research by other scholars, it tentatively suggests that these inscriptions can be divided into two groups which represent different phases of production. Secondly, it explores the reasons for the apparent introduction of a sense of place in the later inscriptions, considering the broader political and administrative history of the district of Samaria in the 2nd century BCE.

Authors: Koval Nazar P. , Aravitska Mariia H. 
Published: October 2023

Aim: to determine the effectiveness of a physical therapy program for the elderly with sarcopenic obesity in terms of the kinesiophobia and physical functioning parameters.
Materials and methods: We examined 106 elderly people, who were divided into 3 groups. The control group consisted of individuals with normal body weight and they had no sarcopenia. The main group 1 consisted of individuals with sarcopenic obesity and a weak therapeutic alliance; they were given general recommendations for modifying the diet and expanding physical activity. The main group 2 included patients with a strong therapeutic alliance. A one-year physical therapy program with the use of kinesitherapy, massage, dietary intervention, patient education, the elements of cognitive training and occupation therapy was developed for them. The dynamics were assessed by Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale, Fullerton Fitness Test, Edmonton Frail Scale.
Results: Elderly people with sarcopenic obesity have a high level of kinesiophobia (Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale), their physical status (coordination, balance, strength, flexibility, endurance, agility) significantly lags behind that of their peers (Fullerton Fitness Test), they suffer from the frailty (Edmonton Frail Scale). After applying the developed physical therapy program, it was possible to state that the individuals of the main group 2 showed a statistically significant (p <0.05) improvement in their physical functioning parameters relative to the indicators of their peers and initial parameters, a reduction in the frailty, decreasing in the level of kinesiophobia. The low level of the therapeutic alliance, despite the awareness of the negative consequences for the health, led to unsatisfactory implementation or non-implementation of the recommendations provided for the elderly with sarcopenic obesity and was associated with no improvement in the physical status, signs of frailty, kinesiophobia.
Conclusions: The developed physical therapy program for elderly patients with sarcopenic obesity against a background of a high level of the therapeutic alliance showed a statistically significant improvement in all studied indicators of kinesiophobia and physical functioning parameters compared to the initial level and the indicators of people with low levels of the therapeutic alliance.
