Published: January 2023

This study aims to provide an overview of current legal due diligence standards. So that it can be an answer to the various due diligence models used in previous studies. This research is a desk research, with literature sourced from the lens.org database and garuda.kemdikbud.go.id for scientific articles, and book.google.com for books. The result of this research is that legal due diligence has the same objective as legal audit, namely risk mitigation. The absence of standards for legal due diligence in general, can be filled with existing standards in legal audits, except for legal due diligence conducted by stock market legal consultants within the scope of the stock market. Because they already have special standards set by their association. The results of this research are expected to facilitate legal practice in conducting legal due diligence in the future.Highlights:

Legal due diligence and legal audit share the same objective of risk mitigation.
Existing standards in legal audits can be used to fill the absence of standards for legal due diligence.
Stock market legal consultants have special standards set by their association for conducting legal due diligence within the scope of the stock market.

WITHDRAWN: Stage-wise adaptive differential evolution algorithm and its applications
Authors: Wang Lifang , Zhang Zhe , Guo Xiaodong 
Published: January 2023

Abstract
Common improvement strategies of differential evolution algorithms include improving the difference vector and the basis vector based on the characteristics of the operator, and using fixed parameters, but in different evolutionary periods, they cannot enhance the solving accuracy effectively, resulting in poor solving accuracy of the algorithm and easily trapping into local optimum. In this paper, we raise a stage-wise adaptive differential evolution algorithm (SDDE), which gives two evolution strategies based on the characteristics of each evolutionary period during the iteration of the evolutionary algorithm. The learning factor (F) and the crossover probability (CR) as well as the adaptive adjustment scheme for the population size NP are given to balance the global and local search ability of the algorithm so as to improve the solving accuracy of the algorithm. In addition, an interference mechanism is introduced in the later stage of the algorithm to accelerate the convergence of the algorithm while avoiding falling into local optima. In this paper, the algorithm is experimentally compared with five other improved algorithms on thirty benchmark functions.The results show that SDDE has better convergence performance than the other five algorithms. Applying SDDE to the parameter estimation problem of FM acoustic waves, the results show that SDDE achieves more accurate results than the other five algorithms.
The Image Survival and Protection of Intangible Cultural Heritage in the New Media Environment
Authors: Wang Jinxia 
Published: January 2023

Abstract
As a product of agricultural civilization, intangible cultural heritage (ICH) has been in a bad situation in recent years. Modern video media, with the dual identity of art and media, is an effective way to preserve and disseminate ICH. First, a hybrid network composed of a Bi-directional Long Short-Term Memory (Bi-LSTM) network with attention structure and Neural Network is adopted to extract relevant knowledge. Then, the generative adversarial network (GAN) is optimized. Lastly, this model is tested. The test results reveal that in the dataset constructed here, when the resolution of the processed image is 48×64×48, it takes 0.4825s for the unimproved GAN to process the image, while the algorithm improved only needs 0.0391s to process the image, with a speedup of 12.2.

Abstract

BackgroundThe treatment of common bile duct (CBD) stones with minimally invasive surgery (MIS) mandates is more technical demanding than laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC), especially in patients with a history of previous abdominal surgery, cholangitis or cholecystitis. Near-infrared (NIR) cholangiography via systemic or biliary tree administration of indocyanine green (ICG), which enhances the visualization of the biliary tree anatomy, may increase the reassurance of CBD localization. The aim of this study was to identify the benefit of near-infrared cholangiography for laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE).MethodsThree groups of CBD stone patients were included in this retrospective study depending on the surgical methods: 1) open choledocholithotomy (OCC), 2) laparoscopic choledocholithotomy (LCC), and 3) near-infrared cholangiography-assisted laparoscopic choledocholithotomy (NIR-CC). For the NIR-CC group, either 3 ml (concentration: 2.5 mg/mL) of ICG were intravenously administered or 10 ml (concentration: 0.125 mg/mL) of ICG were injected directly into the biliary tree. The enhancement rate of the cystic duct (CD), CBD, the upper and lower margin of the CBD were compared using white light imageResultsA total of 187 patients with a mean age of 68.26 years were included (OCC, n = 56; LCC, n = 110; NIR-CC, n = 21). The rate of previous abdominal surgery was significantly lower in the LCC group. The conversion rate was similar between the LCC and the NIR CC groups (p = 0.746). The postoperative hospital stay was significantly longer in the OCC group. No differences in morbidity and mortality were found between the three groups. In the NIR-CC group, the localization of CBD was as high as 85% compared to 24% with white light imaging.ConclusionsNear-infrared cholangiography helps increase the chance of success in minimally invasive approaches to CBD stones even in patients with previous abdominal surgeries, without increasing the rate of conversion.

Published: January 2023

Abstract
High-throughput experimentation (HTE) has the potential to improve our understanding of organic chemistry by systematically interrogating reactivity across diverse chemical spaces. Notable bottlenecks include few publicly available large-scale datasets and the need for facile interpretation of these data's hidden chemical insights. Herein we report the development of a High Throughput Experimentation Analyzer (HiTEA), a robust and statistically rigorous framework which is applicable to any HTE dataset regardless of size, scope, or target reaction outcome. We improve the HTE data landscape with the disclosure of 47,000 + previously proprietary HTE reactions. HiTEA is validated on this dataset, showcasing the elucidation of hidden relationships between reaction components and outcomes as well as highlighting reaction space that necessitates further investigation.

A Rare Case of Superior Mesenteric Artery Thrombosis Post Vaginal Delivery
Authors: Aravindan Anila , Bondili Anupama 
Published: January 2023

Abstract
Introduction: Acute abdominal pain following a vaginal delivery is rare. Various causes of severe acute postpartum abdominal pain include, pelvic infection, thrombophlebitis, ovarian venous thrombosis, acute urinary retention. Mesenteric vessel thrombosis is an uncommon but often fatal form of intestinal ischemia.
Case presentation: Our case describes a 35 years old grand multipara presented three weeks after spontaneous vaginal delivery with severe abdominal pain, abdominal distension, and hematemesis of acute onset. No significant medical history. Past surgical history of bariatric surgery two years back. The patient’s hemodynamic state was unstable and was diagnosed with superior mesenteric artery thrombosis by contrast-enhanced computed tomography and had urgent laparotomy and resection of the bowel segment with the temporary closure of the abdomen. On the next day a second look laparotomy was done later reversal of Roux en Y gastric bypass (gastro-gastric anastomosis, jejuno-jejunal anastomosis, and jejuno-ileal anastomosis), appendectomy was carried out. She was discharged on the 10th day of admission in stable condition with regular follow-up in the surgical outpatient department.
Conclusion: Even after vaginal birth, pregnancy and puerperium raise the risk of thrombosis. Given that this is frequently discovered at a late and irreversible stage, an increased index of suspicion is required for an early diagnosis and rapid therapy to enhance the maternal prognosis. To lower maternal mortality, risk assessments for thromboembolism must be made periodically. To rule out mesenteric artery ischemia in cases of acute abdominal discomfort, abdominal contrast-enhanced computed tomography may be required.

Abstract
We investigate the fuzzy fractional European option pricing models in the sense of the fuzzy AtanganaBaleanu derivative in this paper. The paper’s main contribution is the analysis of the existence and uniqueness of the fuzzy European-type option pricing model that provides a fundamental solution. Moreover, we set up a new scheme for approximating solutions of this model based on fuzzy homotopy perturbation transform method. This procedure is used successfully on two examples for finding the solutions
Water-induced mantle overturns leading to the origination of Archean continents and sub continental lithospheric mantle
Authors: Wu Zhongqing , Song Jian , Zhao Guochun , Pan Zhongxu 
Published: January 2023

Abstract
The originations of the Archean continents and sub continental lithospheric mantle (SCLM) were most important events in the early Earth and crucial for understanding how the early Earth worked. The mechanisms for the originations of the Archean continents and SCLM remain unclear. This study suggests that these events were controlled by a deep-water cycle (DWC) in the early Earth. With the solidification of the basal magma ocean (BMO), water in the BMO moved toward the core-mantle boundary and the BMO eventually became gravity unstable because of the enrichment of water. The gravity instability triggered the massive mantle overturns and transported a huge amount of water upward to the shallow part of the Earth. The massive overturn events resulted in the major pulses of the thick SCLM and continental crust generations in the Neoarchean. The DWC model in the early Earth can account for the episodic feature of continental growth and why TTG and thick SCLM basically occurred in the Archean. The DWC model also shows why only the Earth among inner solar system planets was covered with the continental crust. Our results suggest that the DWC played a first-order role in the evolution and dynamics of the early Earth just like the current DWC driven by the plate tectonics on the nowadays Earth.
BLM helicase determines chemotherapy-induced responses of human glioma cells and shifts between apoptosis, senescence or polyploidy

Published: January 2023

Abstract
Most of anti-tumour therapies eliminate neoplastic cells by introducing DNA damage which ultimately triggers cell death. These effects are counteracted by activated DNA repair pathways and RECQL family helicases, including BLM, participate in replication stress, DNA damage and repair. Glioblastoma (GBM) is a common, malignant brain tumour that inevitably recurs despite surgical resection, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy with temozolomide (TMZ). Expression and functions of the BLM helicase in therapy resistant GBMs have not been elucidated. We analysed expression and localisation of BLM in human gliomas and several glioma cell lines using TCGA datasets, immunostaining and Western blotting. BLM depleted human glioma cells were generated with CRISPR/Cas9. Effects of chemotherapeutics on cell proliferation, DNA damage and apoptosis were determined with flow cytometry, immunofluorescence Western blotting and RNA sequencing. We found upregulated BLM mRNA levels in malignant gliomas, increased cytosolic localisation and poor survival of BLM highly expressing GBM patients. BLM deficiency in LN18 and LN229 glioma cells resulted in profound transcriptomic alterations, reduced cell proliferation, and altered cell responses to chemotherapeutics. BLM-deficient glioma cells were resistant to the TMZ and PARP inhibitor treatment and underwent polyploidy or senescence depending on the TP53 activity. These dependencies were not detected in RECQL4-deficient cells. Our findings of high BLM expression in GBMs and its roles in responses to chemotherapeutics provide a rationale for targeting BLM helicase in those tumours. BLM deficiency affects responses of glioma cells to chemotherapeutics targeting PARP-1 dependent pathways, while these effects are not detected in RECQL4 deficient cells implying distinct functions of these helicases.

Published: January 2023

Abstract
Objectives
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic immune disease characterized by synovial inflammation and bone destruction, with a largely unclear etiology. Evidences have indicated that ferroptosis may play an increasingly important role in the onset and development RA. However, ferroptosis-related genes are still largely unexplored in RA. Therefore, this work focused on identifying and validating the potential ferroptosis-related genes involved in RA through bioinformatics analysis.
Methods
We screened differentially expressed ferroptosis-related genes (DEFGs) between RA patients and healthy individuals based on GSE55235 dataset. Subsequently, correlation analysis, protein-protein interaction (PPI) network analysis, GO, and KEGG enrichment analyses were performed using these DEFGs. Finally, our results were validated by GSE12021 dataset.
Results
We discovered 34 potential DEFGs in RA based on bioinformatics analysis. According to functional enrichment analysis, these genes were mainly enriched in HIF-1 signaling pathway, FoxO signaling pathway, and Ferroptosis pathway. Four genes (GABARPL1, DUSP1, JUN, and MAPK8) were validated to be downregulated by GSE12021 dataset and may be possible diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets for RA via the regulation of ferroptosis.
Conclusions
Our results may help shed more light on the pathogenesis of RA. Ferroptosis-related genes in RA could be valuable diagnostic biomarkers and they will be exploited clinically as therapeutic targets in the future.
Soft Actor Critic (SAC) based Automatic Policy Generation and Effective Framework for Dynamic Trust Management for Securing SDN
Authors: S Sahana D , H Brahmananda S 
Published: January 2023

Abstract
The Software Define Network (SDN) integrated with Internet of Things (IoT) reduces the scalability of IoT devices by managing the network, however the SDN are easily vulnerable to attacks as they used centralized controller for managing the network which can be easily manipulate by the attackers. The existing approaches focused on secure access control to the SDN controller but limits with controller scalability and trust management. By leveraging the problems in existing works, we propose SDMAC-Secure DynaMic Access Control framework which improves the security and provide efficient services to entities. Initially, all the users and applications are registered with attributes based on the registration, the authentication is performed to ensure the legitimacy. The policies are generated for the legitimate users by using Soft Actor Critic (SAC) which considers attributes, actions permitted, and temporal features to enhance network security, the conflicts between the policies are reduced by validating and storing the policies to database by the administrator. The proposed work is validated using iFog Sim tool and the performance comparisons between proposed and existing works are validated with several metrics. The simulation result shows that the proposed model work outperforms better than existing works.

Abstract
Thermodynamics has strong predictive power for materials synthesis by identifying the stability region of target phases, but does not give explicit information about the relative competitiveness of undesired byproduct phases in synthesis. In this work, we propose a quantitative and computable measure to guide the selection of synthesis conditions. Defining thermodynamic competition as the difference in driving force between a target phase and its competing phases, we hypothesize that phase-pure synthesis becomes more likely when this thermodynamic competition is minimized. We systematically validate this hypothesis with two approaches: (1) we analyze large-scale solution synthesis procedures as text-mined from the literature, and show that experimentally-optimized synthesis conditions are near the predicted thermodynamic optimum point, and (2) direct experimental evaluation of synthesis in LiIn(IO3)4 and LiFePO4, which show that phase-pure synthesis occurs only when thermodynamic competition is minimized. Our work demonstrates that a quantitative assessment of thermodynamic competition is an effective descriptor for synthesis optimization and a promising tool for optimizing aqueous solution-based experimental synthesis conditions.
WITHDRAWN: Development and validation of a distress measurement for insulin injections among patients with diabetes

Published: January 2023

Abstract
Background: Insulin injections are stressful but necessary for people with diabetes. This study aimed to develop and validate the Distress of Self-Injection (DSI) scale for patients with diabetes aged ≥10 years.
Methods: We created a questionnaire to evaluate DSI after examining each item following a literature review. The DSI scale with 20 questions in three domains (physical [4], psychosocial [7], and process [9]) was developed and tested at the Samsung Medical Center in Seoul, Korea, from April to September 2021. To verify structural validity, exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses (CFA) were conducted. Internal consistency was also calculated. To assess construct and criterion validity, the correlation between the DSI scale and Korean version of the Problem Areas in Diabetes (PAID-K) scale was obtained.
Results: Cronbach’s alpha varied from 0.69 to 0.87, and the DSI score was 0.90, demonstrating acceptable internal consistency. CFA fit indices (CFI = 0.868; SRMR = 0.080) were favorable. DSI and pertinent PAID-K domains correlated strongly. For measuring self-injection distress, the DSI score had good accuracy.
Conclusions: For patients with diabetes aged ≥10 years who self-inject insulin, the DSI was a viable and accurate method for quantifying discomfort associated with insulin injection. Health practitioners should use the DSI to communicate with patients about their suffering.
