Perceived Femininity: Women Working in Male-Dominated Occupations
Authors: Bima Nadia Revania , Primadini Intan 
Published: September 2023

Patriarchal society significantly affects how people interpret gender In the Indonesian, which leads to segregation and gender stereotypes in the workplace.Current development, women are entering fields like mining and construction that were formerly dominated by men. This study seeks to understand how women perceive their femininity when working in environments where men predominate. The research method is interpretive phenomenological analysis (IPA), which uses a qualitative and explorative approach in line with the constructivist paradigm. The information gathered from interviews was analyzed using Smith, Flowers, and Larkin's (2009) data analysis techniques. The findings indicate that women who work in professions where men predominate regard their femininity as a combination of traditional femininity, new femininity, and adopted male traits as a means of adjusting to the workplace. This leads us to the conclusion that femininity is currently changing and that women today tend to express themselves more freely.
Multidimensional Radiation Hydrodynamics Simulations of Pulsational Pair-instability Supernovae
Authors: Chen Ke-Jung , Whalen Daniel J. , Woosley S. E. , Zhang Weiqun 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
Stars with masses of 80–130 M
⊙ can encounter pulsational pair-instability at the end of their lives, which triggers consecutive episodes of explosive burning that eject multiple massive shells. Collisions between these shells produce bright transients known as pulsational pair-instability supernovae (PPI SNe) that may explain some extreme supernovae. In this paper, we present the first 2D and 3D radiation hydrodynamics simulations of PPI SNe with the CASTRO code. Radiative cooling causes the collided shells to evolve into thin, dense structures with hot spots that can enhance the peak luminosity of the SN by factors of 2–3. The light curve peaks at 1.9–2.1 × 1043 erg s−1 for 50 days and then plateaus at 2–3 × 1042 erg s−1 for 200 days, depending on the viewing angle. The presence of 12C and 16O and the absence of 28Si and 56Fe in its spectra can uniquely identify this transient as a PPI SN in follow-up observations. Our models suggest that multidimensional radiation hydrodynamics is required to model the evolution and light curves of all shell-collision SNe, such as Type IIne, not just PPI SNe.
Identifying Acoustic Wave Sources on the Sun. II. Improved Filter Techniques for Source Wavefield Seismology
Authors: Bahauddin Shah Mohammad , Rast Mark Peter 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
In this paper, we refine a previously developed acoustic source filter, improving its reliability and extending its capabilities. We demonstrate how to fine-tune the filter to meet observational constraints and focus on specific wave-front speeds. This refinement enables discrimination of acoustic source depths and tracking of local source wave fronts, thereby facilitating ultralocal helioseismology. By utilizing the photospheric Doppler signal from a subsurface source in a MURaM simulation, we demonstrate that robust ultralocal three-dimensional helioseismic inversions for the granular flows and the local sound speed to depths of at least 80 km below the photosphere are possible. The capabilities of the National Science Foundation’s new Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope will enable such measurements of the real Sun.
Terrestrial nematodes from the Maritime Antarctic

Published: September 2023

Soil nematodes are one of the most important terrestrial faunal groups in Antarctica, as they are a major component of soil micro-food webs. Despite their crucial role in soil processes, knowledge of their species diversity and distribution is still incomplete. Taxonomic studies of Antarctic nematodes are fragmented, which prevents assessment of the degree of endemicity and distribution of the species, as well as other aspects of biogeography.
The present study is focused on the nematode fauna of one of the three Antarctic sub-regions, the Maritime Antarctic and summarises all findings published up to April 2023. A species list that includes 44 species, belonging to 21 genera, 16 families and eight orders is provided. A review of the literature on terrestrial nematodes inhabiting the Maritime Antarctic showed that the sites are unevenly studied. Three islands (Signy, King George and Livingston Islands) revealed highest species richness, probably due to the highest rates of research effort. Most species and four genera (Antarctenchus, Pararhyssocolpus, Amblydorylaimus and Enchodeloides) are endemic, proving that nematode fauna of the Maritime Antarctic is autochthonous and unique. Several groups of islands/sites have been revealed, based on their nematode fauna. The study showed that species with a limited distribution prevailed, while only two species (Plectus antarcticus and Coomansus gerlachei) have been found in more than 50% of the sites. Based on the literature data, details on species localities, microhabitat distribution, plant associations and availability of DNA sequences are provided.

Published: September 2023

In recent years, deep learning methods in the biodiversity domain have gained significant attention due to their ability to handle the complexity of biological data and to make processing of large volumes of data feasible. However, these methods are not easy to interpret, so the opacity of new scientific research and discoveries makes them somewhat untrustworthy. Reproducibility is a fundamental aspect of scientific research, which enables validation and advancement of methods and results. If results obtained with the help of deep learning methods were reproducible, this would increase their trustworthiness. In this study, we investigate the state of reproducibility of deep learning methods in biodiversity research.
We propose a pipeline to investigate the reproducibility of deep learning methods in the biodiversity domain. In our preliminary work, we systematically mined the existing literature from Google Scholar to identify publications that employ deep-learning techniques for biodiversity research. By carefully curating a dataset of relevant publications, we extracted reproducibility-related variables for 61 publications using a manual approach, such as the availability of datasets and code that serve as fundamental criteria for reproducibility assessment. Moreover, we extended our analysis to include advanced reproducibility variables, such as the specific deep learning methods, models, hyperparameters, etc., employed in the studies.
To facilitate the automatic extraction of information from publications, we plan to leverage the capabilities of large language models (LLMs). By using the latest natural language processing (NLP) techniques, we aim to identify and extract relevant information pertaining to the reproducibility of deep learning methods in the biodiversity domain. This study seeks to contribute to the establishment of robust and reliable research practices. The findings will not only aid in validating existing methods but also guide the development of future approaches, ultimately fostering transparency and trust in the application of deep learning techniques in biodiversity research.
Leveraging AI in Biodiversity Informatics: Ethics, privacy, and broader impacts
Authors: Lewers Kristen "Kit" 
Published: September 2023

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been heralded as a hero by some and rejected as a harbinger of destruction by others. While many in the community are excited about the functionality and promise AI brings to the field of biodiversity informatics, others have reservations regarding its widespread use. This talk will specifically address Large Language Models (LLMs) highlighting both the pros and cons of using LLMs. Like any tool, LLMs are neither good nor bad in and of themselves, but AI does need to be used within the appropriate scope of its ability and properly. Topics to be covered include model opacity (Franzoni 2023), privacy concerns (Wu et al. 2023), potential for algorithmic harm (Marjanovic et al. 2021) and model bias (Wang et al. 2020) in the context of generative AI along with how these topics differ from similar concerns when using traditional ML (Machine Learning) applications. Potential for implementation and training to ensure the most fair environment when leveraging AI and keeping FAIR (Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability, and Reproducibility) principles in mind, will also be discussed.
The topics covered will be mainly framed through the Biodiversity Information Standards (TDWG) community, focusing on sociotechnical aspects and implications of implementing LLMs and generative AI.
Finally, this talk will explore the potential applicability of TDWG standards pertaining to uniform prompting vocabulary when using generative AI and employing it as a tool for biodiversity informatics.

Authors: Hoyek Sandra , Wu Frances , Berrocal Audina M. , Patel Nimesh A. 
Published: September 2023

Background and Objective:
Inducing a posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) may be challenging, especially in pediatric patients with firm vitreo-retinal adherence. This case report will present an alternative method of PVD induction using adjunctive perfluorooctane (PFO).

Materials and Methods:
An 11-year-old boy underwent scleral buckle placement and 23-gauge pars plana vitrectomy for macula-off retinal detachment. Triamcinolone acetonide was used for vitreous staining. A flexible loop was used to peel the hyaloid membrane from attached retina nasal to the optic nerve. A small hole was created in the posterior hyaloid, and a small PFO bubble was injected under the detached vitreous to further dissect it from the retina and propagate the vitreous detachment anteriorly. The vitrector was used to lift and complete the PVD peripherally.

Results:
PVD induction was obtained with no iatrogenic retinal breaks or postoperative complications.

Conclusion:
PVD induction using a stepwise PFO approach is a safe and effective alternative to conventional techniques.

Authors: Sawant Ankita Y. , Wagh Ranjit Jagannath 
Published: September 2023

CONTEXT:
Major depression is a neuropsychiatric condition, with a prevalence of 4.5% in the Indian population. It affects public health by causing huge economic disbursement. Previous studies show that Indian Pharmaceutical Market has price variations ranging from 21.53% to 1000% in various brands of the same antidepressant.

AIMS:
The aim of the study is to appraise the price variation analysis of various brands of antidepressant drugs.

SETTINGS AND DESIGN:
This is an analytical study.

SUBJECTS AND METHODS:
The prices of 30 antidepressant drugs available in 96 brands were obtained per unit from http://www.medguideindia.com and http://www.mims.com from January to March 2023. For each formulation percentage price variation, mode price and cost ratio were calculated and analyzed.

STATISTICAL ANALYSIS USED:
Percentage price variation, cost ratio, and mode price.

RESULTS:
Among oral antidepressants, the highest percentage of price variation and cost ratio was seen in tablet amitriptyline 50 mg of 3511.11% and 36.11, respectively, followed by tablet escitalopram 10 mg with price variation of 1005.09% and cost ratio of 11.05%. Furthermore, topical doxepin cream has a percentage price variation and cost ratio of 1331.29% and 14.31, respectively. Tablet imipramine 100 mg was found to have a mode price for all the available brands.

CONCLUSIONS:
Since there is a plethora of price variations for various brands of antidepressants, more stringent laws need to be made by the Government and drug regulatory authorities such as the National Pharmaceutical Pricing Authority. Generic antidepressants need to be made available at all times in various accessible drug stores where prices of the drugs are regularly monitored and are under constant price control.

Authors: Dyakonova Elena Yu. , Gusev Aleksey A. , Bekin Aleksandr S. , De Cassia Vas Amanda , Tishkin German V. , Yatsyk Sergey P. 
Published: September 2023

Introduction. Cholelithiasis in children is a rare disease. Making a decision on cholecystectomy in children is an urgent problem due to the lack of consensus on the tactics of managing children with cholelithiasis. Aim: determine the indications for surgical treatment of cholelithiasis in children based on laboratory and instrumental examination methods.
Materials and methods. The study analyzed twenty seven patients operated on for cholelithiasis from 2018 to 2023.
Results. Me = 18.7 months elapsed from the moment of diagnosis of cholelithiasis to surgery. In the prospective part of the work, 27 patients were studied, of which 26 were operated on. In 7 (26%) — the disease proceeded without symptoms, in 20 (74%) — pain syndrome was observed, in 4 — dyspeptic disorders were observed in the form of nausea and vomiting associated with food intake, in 2 — biliary sludge. According to the study, there was no statistically significant change in the level of C-reactive protein (p = 0.4). Analyzing the ESR data before and after surgical treatment, there was no statistically significant difference in the dynamics of this indicator (p = 0.223). In the trend in laboratory parameters, a statistically significant change in the parameters of leukocytes (p = 0.023) and neutrophils (p = 0.014) was revealed in the general blood test before and after surgical treatment.
Conclusion. In children diagnosed with uncomplicated cholelithiasis, changes in laboratory parameters before and after surgery are uninformative and unreliable. In children with uncomplicated cholelithiasis, medical treatment was ineffective, as a result of which surgical treatment was indicated. The ineffectiveness of drug treatment and the deterioration of the general condition of the child are indications for surgical treatment. As a minimally invasive surgical intervention, laparoscopic CE is recommended.

Pollution of the hydrosphere with petroleum products at railway transport facilities
Authors: Belevtseva A. N. 
Published: September 2023

On railway transport, a large amount of water is used for production needs, respectively, domestic wastewater contaminated with petroleum products is formed.For water purifi cation in modern conditions, oil traps or oil traps are used. They are designed for cleaning ground, thawed, rainwater, water from washing rolling stock, washing components and parts before repair in electroplating workshops or sites, when washing and refueling batteries, fi lter regeneration, when purging and washing steam boilers, washing inspection ditches and washing overalls.As a result of man-made disasters on railway transport, there may be pollution of water bodies, as a result of which there is a violation of the integrity of ecological systems and the death of living organisms.To eliminate the consequences of pollution of water bodies, JSC “Russian Railways” uses mechanical, chemical and biological methods of water purifi cation. Additionally, it is advisable to use modern types of sorbents. The choice of a method for cleaning reservoirs depends on many factors, the most important of which are the volume and scale of pollution.A number of bacterial preparations have been created in Russia that are successfully used to clean water bodies and shorelines from oil pollution.Voronezh State University, with the cooperation of VEGA-eco LLC, is developing a biological product of the genus Acinetobacter (B-2838, B-5064 and B-3780), which is capable of refi ning oil.The drug “Devoroil” is used to clean oil-contaminated sites at railway enterprises. It includes an association of cells of hydrocarbon-oxidizing microorganisms and additives that activate the process of biodegradation of oil. The working time of the drug “Devoroil” is 2-3 months.Today, there are 25 known species of bacteria and fungi that decompose hydrocarbons.These organisms work in a complex and participate in the biochemical carbon cycle in nature, being powerful tools in the fi eld of environmental microbiology.As a result of the development of scientifi c and technological progress, it becomes possible to create new technologies in the fi ght against man–made disasters.
