High-Entropy and Phase-Regulated Engineering of Cs(Pb,Fe,Co,Ni,Mn)Br 3 Perovskite: Enhanced Electromagnetic Wave Absorption with Large Bandwidth
Authors: Chen Qiuling 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
To address challenges such as signal interference and crosstalk, the development of novel materials with the ability to absorb electromagnetic waves (EMA) is imperative. In this study, we achieved outstanding EMA properties, including an RLmin of 75 dB at 10.2 GHz and a 2.5 mm thickness, accompanied by an exceptionally wide effective bandwidth of 8.8 GHz. We accomplished this feat by employing advanced techniques in high-entropy and phase regulation engineering within the framework of CsMBr3 perovskite. Our approach involved the strategic introduction of diverse magnetic elements, such as Fe, Co, Ni, and Mn, into the CsPbBr3 matrix. The presence of high entropy was validated through meticulous analysis using Rietveld and GIWAXS patterns. We meticulously synthesized high-entropy Cs(Pb, Fe, Co, Ni, Mn)Br3 square nanoparticles within the size range of 30–50 nm, ensuring their uniform dispersion. As we progressively augmented the high-entropy content, we observed notable lattice distortion within PbBr6, ultimately leading to a phase transition characterized by orthorhombic and tetrahedral configurations. Our comprehensive measurements consistently demonstrated improvements in key parameters, including magnetic permeability, dielectric constant, polarization, and attenuation loss, as the high-entropy ratio reached 3 within the crystal. The driving force behind these enhanced EMA characteristics can be attributed to the synergistic effects arising from high-entropy alloying and the introduction of disordered crystal phases. This synergy significantly heightened conductivity, amplified magnetic losses, and fostered multiple scattering effects, collectively contributing to the observed advancements in EMA performance.

Abstract
Under the Autonomous Mobile Clinics (AMCs) initiative, the AI Clinics on Mobile (AICOM) project is developing, open sourcing, and standardizing health AI technologies on low-end mobile devices to enable healthcare access in least developed countries (LDCs). As the first step, we introduce AICOM-MP, an AI-based monkeypox detector specially aiming for handling images taken from resource-constrained devices. Following the precedent AI technologies built on existing monkeypox datasets, we have developed AICOM-MP with the following principles: minimization of gender, racial, and age bias; ability to conduct binary classification without over-relying on computing power; capacity to produce accurate results irrespective of images’ background, resolution, and quality. AICOM-MP has achieved state-of-the-art (SOTA) performance. We have hosted AICOM-MP as a web service to allow universal access to monkeypox screening technology, and open sourced both the source code and the dataset of AICOM-MP to allow health AI professionals to integrate AICOM-MP into their services. Through the AICOM-MP project, we have generalized a methodology of developing health AI technologies for AMCs to allow universal access even in resource-constrained environments. AICOM-MP has achieved state-of-the-art results on mobile-phone based monkeypox screening. The methodology, which AICOM-MP summarized, can be generalized to other diseases, leading to the development of health AI engines for various disease screening usage scenarios.

Published: September 2023

Abstract
In response to the challenges posed by climate change, this research explores voluntary and planned initiatives for the reuse of treated wastewater, aiming to provide a sustainable water source for various applications. Specifically, the study focuses on the techno-economic aspects of repurposing treated textile wastewater with the use of palm waste filters for irrigation in green areas and cooling towers within the textile industry. Our findings demonstrate multiple advantages in terms of ecology, environmental impact, and technical feasibility associated with treated wastewater reuse. Moreover, the application of palm waste as an alternative adsorbent in the final treatment of textile discharge water exhibits promising results in reducing pollutant levels. The palm waste adsorbents were successfully regenerated through three cycles using an ethanol-water solution. By adopting a water recycling strategy through palm waste filtration, the textile company under study stands to significantly decrease its water-related expenses. This reduction translates from an annual expenditure of 181,542.2 Moroccan dirhams (MAD) to just 9,945.72 MAD, equivalent to an impressive annual savings of 171,596.48 MAD. These findings underscore the economic and environmental benefits of implementing a water recycling system in the textile industry.

Abstract

Unsustainable wildlife trade imperils thousands of species, but efforts to identify and reduce these threats are hampered by rapidly evolving commercial markets. Businesses trading wildlife-derived products innovate to remain competitive, and the patents they file to protect their innovations also provide an early-warning of market shifts. We develop a novel machine-learning approach to analyse patent-filing trends, and apply it to patents filed from 1970–2020 related to six traded taxa that vary in trade legality, threat level, and use type: rhinoceroses, pangolins, bears, sturgeon, horseshoe crabs, and caterpillar fungus. We found 27,308 patents, showing 130% per-year increases, compared to a background rate of 104%. Innovation led to diversification, including new fertilizer products using illegal-to-trade rhinoceros horn, and novel farming methods for pangolins. Stricter regulation did not generally correlate with reduced patenting. Patents reveal how wildlife-related businesses predict, adapt to, and create market shifts, providing data to underpin proactive wildlife-trade management approaches.

Published: September 2023

Abstract
Background and aims:
Secreted frizzled related protein 5(SFRP5) is an emerging adipokine with potent anti-inflammatory properties. Nevertheless, little is known regarding the relevance of SFRP5 with coronary artery disease (CAD). The current study examed the correlation between serum level of SFRP5 and TyG index in patients who underwent coronary angiography as a component of cardiovascular assessment and for the purpose of prognosis evaluation.
Methods
A total of 310 hospitalized patients between May 2021 and March 2022 were enrolled in this research and were divided into three groups base on SYNTAX scores, Control group, Mild Lesion group and Moderate-Severe Lesion group. Univariate and multivariate analyses were employed to investigate the relationships between changes in CAD and clinical variables. To investigate the impact of the TyG index and serum SFRP5 levels on the occurence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), Kaplan-Meier (KM) curves were plotted. The measurement of serum SFRP5 levels was conducted utilizing an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit.
Results
The serum SFRP5 level and TyG index were significantly negative (r=-0.312, P < 0.05). SFRP5 exerts a protective role in different group of CAD patients. The area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) indicated that an SFRP5 concentration > 115.58pg/mL was the best predictive value for CAD (OR:0.87, P < 0.05). Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) are significantly associated with serum SFRP5 levels and the TyG index, as indicated by both univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses (P < 0.05). Furthermore, Kaplan-Meier analysis indicated that as the TyG index decreased and SFRP5 increased, the occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) decreased(P < 0.001). Patients with a concentration of SFRP5 > 115.58 pg/mL and a TyG index < 8.49 exhibit a better prognosis for avoiding MACE(P < 0.001).
Conclusion
These results suggest that the collaboration between serum SFRP5 levels and the TyG index holds promise in predicting CAD and its prognosis.

Abstract
Negative temperature coefficient thermistor (NTC) is widely used in temperature measurement field, especially in the temperature range from 0 ℃ to 40℃. For its strong nonlinearity, NTC should be calibrated in this temperature range with three or more temperature fixed points. However, in this temperature range, there is only two defined temperature fixed point in ITS-90: Gallium point and water triple phase point. In this paper, a phenol temperature fixed point was developed to make up the deficiency. Melting and freezing temperature curves are studied for the single-component phenol in a conventional-size cell. The phenol melting plateau can last for more than 10 hours with melt range of less than of 100 mK. The freezing plateau can last approximately 2 hours with the observed temperature variation less than 5 mK, which showed a high degree of reproducibility. Different methods were employed to accurately determine the phase transition temperature. By repeatedly realizing phenol melting plateaus and freezing plateaus, the melting point temperature was determined to be 40.6105 ± 0.015 ℃ (k = 2) with a reproducibility of less than 7.4 mK, and the freezing point temperature was 40.6346 ± 0.0034 ℃ (k = 2), with a reproducibility of less than 1.5 mK. The results showed that the phenol freezing point temperature is the most suitable temperature reference standard near 40.6 ℃.

Abstract
Background: Psychological problems and burnout are major problems deriving from the COVID-19 pandemic.
Aim: To assess the impact of resilience and social support on job burnout and COVID-19-related burnout in the general population.
Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study in Greece with 1256 participants from the general public. We measured sociodemographic characteristics of the participants, resilience with the Brief Resilience Scale, social support with the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support, and COVID-19-related burnout with the COVID-19 burnout scale.
Results: We found that individuals with higher resilience experienced lower COVID-19-related burnout, while those with higher resilience and more social support experienced lower levels of job burnout. Moreover, males, individuals with better health status, those who had not been infected with SARS-CoV-2, and those with fewer adverse events from the vaccination against COVID-19 experienced lower COVID-19-related burnout. Furthermore, males, individuals with better health status, those without any chronic disease, those who experienced fewer adverse events from COVID-19 vaccination, and those with lower educational level, experienced lower levels of job burnout.
Conclusions: Resilience and social support could act as protective factors against job burnout and COVID-19-related burnout in the general population. Psychological support of the general population is necessary to overcome the difficulties that have emerged during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Forward rate: A model for interest rate and risk within the market, fundamental theory.
Authors: boughabi houssam 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
Forward rates are a deal between two big financial institutions in the OTC market, we sought to define this concept according to interest rate and risk in the Stock Market, however the change of such a concept is very sensitive and crucial to understand; we are going to define a model that incorporates the change of a Forward rate with respect to interest rate and volatility, the frame time T is fixed and everytime time is running out even the OTC markets have some pledge into risk and arbitrage all within the Forward Market, the counterparts are indeed the bloc which defines the amount of FT but to be more honest they have some allegation for the market mechanisms which logically are the milestone that determines the real value of the Forward rate. Our model has the privilege of supposing that risk in the Stock Market which is by the way fractional affects Forward prices in a random way which means that Forward prices are not forecastable using all the information about risk in the Stock Market, after calibrating our model using Cac 40 indice as a pretext we find consistent results, the path of our model shows more variations and appears volatile however it traces the same variation as the Market Futures of Cac 40.

The labour Market equilibrium and voluntry unemployement prediction
Authors: boughabi houssam 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
Unvoluntry unemployement lacks explanation in the American literature as well as the western background, many scholars have defined unemployement in their guise neglecting the behavior of companies in that regard, my attention goes deeper for the behavior of companies to face off the unvoluntry unemployement that the economy may deal with in time of recession, as a simple twist of logic the rational action stemming from grand companies is to sarifice a part of their employers to preserve the stability of wages in fear of being trapped in the hands of a dark sympthom called inflation, preserving the level of prices is also a burden on companies as well as financial authorities.
Afterward, under our wage's model we have explicitly resolved for an analytical form for Vanilla Options and build a model that recalls the correlation between Futures and European Options. When we calibrate our model we estimate parameters using linear regressions stemming from our theory, the robustness of our model would be how really our model would stick to the fair price of Options defined under absence of arbitrage opportunities.
The serie of wages would be defined with reference to an arbitrary bi-dimensional vector that accounts for wages movement in the market, our choice of that vector has something to do with rationality, as the movement in the labour Market are difficult to catch explicitly.

Abstract
Background: The inability to achieve pregnancy within one year of unprotected intercourse attracts stigmatisation and emotional challenges for couples. This study sought to study the correlations between sociodemographic, sex factors, and knowledge of infertility in Ghana.
Methodology: This was a prospective cross-sectional survey, designed to determine sociodemographic and gender factors associated with knowledge about infertility in Ho Municipality in Volta Region of Ghana in 2021. 1, 821 participants were recruited using simple randomization and nonprobability sampling techniques. Inferential and regression statistics were used to determine host-gender trends and predictors of poor to excellent knowledge on definition, causes, and acts of stigmatisation towards infertility among study participants.
Results of 1,821 participants, a proportion of 32%, 49% and 50% expressed ‘good to excellent’ knowledge on ‘definition’, ‘causes’ and ‘acts of stigmatisation’ toward infertility, respectively. However, a higher proportion of 68.4%, 51% and 50.4% of participants expressed ‘poor’ knowledge of ‘definition’, ‘causes’ and ‘acts of stigmatization’ toward infertility.
Conclusion: Significant intra-variations between expression of ‘poor’ and ‘good to excellent’ knowledge on infertility among participants were observed. Furthermore, the predictable expression of poor knowledge among female participants depicts that inequality exists between sexes in accessing public health education on ‘definition’, ‘causes’ and acts of stigmatisation towards infertility. These findings have national policy and programmatic implications on national health strategies on infertility toward the 2030 deadline for Sustainable Development Goals 3, 10, and 15.

Published: September 2023

An experiment was set up in a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) to examine the influence of nursery growing methods and growth medium on fever, tea germination, and seedling development. Two nursery growth methods (Conventional-CON and Float tray system FTs) and six different growing medium (pine bark, peat moss, coco peat, vermiculite, sand, and cattle manure) were used. ANOVA was used to compare treatment means, and means were separated using the Least Significant Difference (LSD) at a 5 % significance level. The nursery growing method and growth material exhibited a strong interaction regarding the germination index, germination percentage, seedling height, leaf area, root length, density, and final crop stand. The float tray approach yielded the greatest germination index for peat moss and the lowest for cattle manure. In the float tray method, peat moss and coco peat had the highest germination percentages, whereas cattle manure had the lowest. Under the float tray technique, the tallest seedlings emerged in peat moss and the smallest in coco peat. Peat moss had the most leaf area in the float tray system, whereas coco peat had the least in the conventional technique. Peat moss in the float tray system had the highest root length density while coco peat in the conventional technique had the lowest. Peat moss in the float tray system had the highest final crop stand, whereas seedlings in the conventional and float tray systems had nothing. based on the findings, it is recommended that fever tea seedlings be grown on peat moss using the float tray method

Published: September 2023

A Cartografia é, hoje, além de interdisciplinar no ambiente escolar, cotidiana. Há, contudo, saberes que devem ser estudados para a compreensão do mapa como uma linguagem. É o caso dos mapas históricos, que permitem ao estudante perceber e analisar as mudanças geográficas e históricas, que refletem na representação do espaço, bem como, compreender os conceitos cartográficos. Atualmente, quando nos referimos à disciplina de Geografia, os livros didáticos apresentam diversas figuras com impressões coloridas, demonstrando um avanço na inserção da Cartografia como metodologia de ensino. Ao contrário do que se esperava, porém, os mapas antigos não aparecem com tanta frequência, e quando aparecem, não são utilizados de maneira funcional. Dentro deste contexto, encontra-se o material distribuído pela Secretaria da Educação do Estado de São Paulo a todas as escolas públicas da rede. Este trabalho analisou os mapas históricos presentes nos materiais didáticos de Geografia citados e os métodos adotados para sua utilização em sala de aula. Foram realizadas entrevistas com professores da rede estadual. Dentre os resultados, comprovou-se a subutilização desses mapas, pela sua escassez dentro do material analisado, e pela formação do professor, o que acarreta diversos obstáculos à utilização da Cartografia histórica como fonte de saber.
