Abstract
Objective The purpose of this study is to assess demographic, clinical, and unique morphological characteristics of distal anterior cerebral artery (DACA) aneurysm. The relation of outcome included Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) using various independent variables, Hunt and Hess clinical grade (H&H), Miller Fischer grade, intraoperative rupture, and comparison of outcomes at discharge and last follow-up.
Methods Demographic data, aneurysm characteristics, and treatment outcomes were evaluated in 28 ruptured DACA aneurysms operated over a period of 13 years. Association between independent variables and dependent variables (GOS) at discharge and at last follow-up (13 years) was analyzed, and the interrelationship between these factors and outcome was evaluated. GOS was used to assess functional outcomes.
Results Over a period of 13 years, 500 patients harboring ruptured intracranial aneurysms were surgically clipped, and out of them 28 patients (5.6%) had ruptured DACA aneurysms. In this series, 20 (71.4%) patients had low grade and 8 (28.6%) had high grade H&H. Out of the 28 patients, 19 (67.8%) had good recovery, 6 (21.5%) were severely disabled, and 3 (10.7%) died at the time of discharge. On the last follow-up (13 years), smoking (p-value 0.03) and use of temporary clip (p-value 0.00) were significant predictors for unfavorable outcome.
Conclusion The results of our case series show that even with ruptured aneurysm excellent overall outcome after microsurgical clipping can be achieved, even though among cerebral aneurysms, DACA aneurysm is considered to have less favorable outcome. Alcohol consumption and use of temporary clip were the predictors for unfavorable outcome at the time of discharge. On the last follow-up, smoking and use of temporary clip were found to be the risk factors for unfavorable outcome. Although the small sample size of this study is a limitation, smoking and use of temporary clip play an important role on the overall outcome. The aim of this study was to analyze data to determine factors which may influence outcome after surgical clipping of ruptured DACA aneurysms.

Published: September 2023

Abstract
Background Chronic heart failure (CHF) is a prevalent cardiovascular condition that can significantly impact the quality of life and increase mortality risk. Yoga is a mind–body therapy that has been studied as a potential complementary treatment for CHF. However, the effectiveness of yoga in improving outcomes in patients with CHF remains uncertain.
Methods We conducted a systematic review of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) evaluating the effects of yoga on outcomes in patients with CHF. We searched the PubMed, Embase, Scopus, Cochrane Library, and IndMED databases from inception to March 2023. The outcomes of interest were left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), cardiac biomarkers, exercise capacity, quality of life, and cardiac function.
Results We identified 11 RCTs that met our inclusion criteria, involving a total of 552 participants. The meta-analysis showed that yoga was associated with significant improvements in peak VO2 (mean difference [MD]= 3.29; 95% Confidence Interval [CI]: 1.64 to 4.94; I2 = 0%), exercise capacity (MD=101.54; 95% CI: 6.24 to 196.83; I2 = 96%), quality of life (MD = –19.99; 95% CI: –25.76 to –14.22; I
2 = 43%), NT-proBNP (MD = –288.78; 95% CI: –492.20 to –85.37; I
2 = 94%), and 6-minute walk test (MD = 101.54; 95% CI: 6.24–196.83; I
2 = 96%), but not in the left ventricular ejection fraction (MD = 4.28; 95% CI: –1.14 to 9.70; I
2 = 93%). Subgroup analysis suggested that the effect of yoga on the quality of life is more pronounced in patients with the “New York Heart Association” (NYHA) class I and II CHF patients and in those who practiced yoga for longer durations. No serious adverse events related to yoga were reported. Most of the included studies were of “low” quality.
Conclusion Current evidence suggests that yoga may be an effective complementary and integrative therapy for improving peak VO2 exercise capacity, NT-proBNP, and quality of life in patients with CHF. However, the low-quality evidence does not render us to conclude anything beyond doubt or draw any firm clinical recommendation. Future high-quality studies are needed to explore the optimal duration and frequency of yoga practice and its effects on long-term outcomes in this population.

Relativistic coupled-cluster calculations of the ionization potential, dissociation energy, and excited electronic states under 35 000 cm−1 are presented for the actinium monofluoride (AcF) molecule. The ionization potential is calculated to be IPe = 48 866 cm−1, and the ground state is confirmed to be a closed-shell singlet and thus strongly sensitive to the T,P-violating nuclear Schiff moment of the Ac nucleus. Radiative properties and transition dipole moments from the ground state are identified for several excited states, achieving a mean uncertainty estimate of ∼450 cm−1 for the excitation energies. For higher-lying states that are not directly accessible from the ground state, possible two-step excitation pathways are proposed. The calculated branching ratios and Franck–Condon factors are used to investigate the suitability of AcF for direct laser cooling. The lifetime of the metastable (1)3Δ1 state, which can be used in experimental searches of the electric dipole moment of the electron, is estimated to be of order 1 ms.

We describe an inertial rotation sensor with a 30-cm cylindrical proof-mass suspended from a pair of 14 μm thick BeCu flexures. The angle between the proof-mass and support structure is measured with a pair of homodyne interferometers, which achieve a noise level of ∼5prad/Hz. The sensor is entirely made of vacuum compatible materials, and the center of mass can be adjusted remotely.

Published: September 2023

The first full demonstration of a high-efficiency phase-locking mechanism was accomplished in the millimeter-wave (mm wave) bands. Two modular Ka-band coaxial magnetrons were fabricated and phase-locked. The coaxial magnetron consisted of a conventional structure and a carefully designed coupling port that included an RF window. The coupling ports of two magnetrons were connected by coupling bridges to phase lock the coaxial magnetrons in zero-phase and π-phase difference mode, reaching phase-locking efficiencies of 93.4% and 95.6%, respectively. Two phase-locking modes were both verified by a mode detection system based on a symmetrical E-plane T-junction and a high bandwidth, high sample rate oscilloscope. Signals from the oscilloscope confirmed that phase-locking occurred after 25 ns and was reproducible from pulse to pulse. With higher power and more coaxial magnetrons in arrays, 1 MW may be achievable at Ka-band.

Published: September 2023

Abstract
Titanium nitride (TiN) has recently emerged as an alternative to coinage metals to enable the development of integrated plasmonic devices at visible and medium-infrared wavelengths. In this regard, its optical performance can be conveniently tuned by tailoring the process parameters of physical vapor deposition methods, such as magnetron sputtering and pulsed laser deposition (PLD). This review first introduces the fundamental features of TiN and a description on its optical properties, including insights on the main experimental techniques to measure them. Afterwards, magnetron sputtering and PLD are selected as fabrication techniques for TiN nanomaterials. The fundamental mechanistic aspects of both techniques are discussed in parallel with selected case studies from the recent literature, which elucidate the critical advantages of such techniques to engineer the nanostructure and the plasmonic performance of TiN.

Abstract
The surface erosion of biased electrodes immersed in a radio frequency (RF) plasma was investigated in oblique magnetic fields ranging from 0.1 T to 3.5 T. The plasma potential and density in the vicinity of the biased electrode have been measured using an RF-compensated cylindrical Langmuir probe moved by a three-dimensional motorised arm in the ALINE facility at 0.1 T. The erosion profiles were determined for different gases (argon and helium), magnetic field strength and plasma volume for the same electrode surface area at an angle of 5∘ with the magnetic field in three different experimental geometries. The radial electric field (perpendicular to the magnetic field) in the plasma column has been deduced from plasma potential measurements. This radial field makes the ions converge to the core of the plasma column at grazing angles (

<

30∘) and is reversed at larger angles. The ion flux on the sample increases with the magnetic field magnitude leading to a strong erosion inhomogeneity. At lower plasma volume, the erosion rate is sensitively enhanced. Local redeposition was identified using x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy on the surfaces exhibiting preferential deposition directions. Finally, the asymmetric erosion patterns obtained from a molybdenum layer etching are explained by the similar asymmetric density maps obtained with the probe and by the

Impact of bimetal doping on the structural and optical characteristics of copper oxide nanoparticles to enhance photocatalytic degradation of dyes: an investigative study
Authors: Abhilasha  , Kumari Neeraj , Gautam Rajni 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
Metal oxide nanoparticles have attracted a lot of attention for dye degradation applications as they have better light absorption properties required for the photocatalysis. This paper presents the impact of bi-metal doping (i.e. Cerium and Tungsten) on the structural and optical properties of Copper oxide nanoparticles. Bi-metal doping has shown remarkable impact on the optical properties (i.e. enhanced light absorption) of CuO nanoparticles making it suitable for photocatalytic applications. A simple co-precipitation method was used to synthesize the pure, single-metal doped and bi-metal doped (i.e. Ce, W and Ce-W) CuO nanoparticles. XRD analysis was done to study the structural properties along with crystallite size estimation using Debye-Scherer formula. Absorption band at 852 cm−1 and 650 cm−1 in the FT-IR spectra further confirmed the presence of CeO2 & WO2 in the monoclinic phase of CuO nanoparticles. Maximum absorption wavelength and bandgap are measured using UV–vis Spectroscopy, and it has been observed that both these quantities depend upon the choice of dopant and can be tailored just by choosing the appropriate dopant. The paper presents an extensive analysis using experimental study to compare the impact of Ce, W and bimetal (Ce-W) doping on the structural, optical and photocatalytic properties of CuO nanoparticles. Enhanced optical absorption in the complete visible range is observed in case of bi-metal doped CuO nanoparticles making it a promising candidate for photocatalytic dye degradation application.

Abstract
The aim was to evaluate the effects of adding different functional monomers to experimental self-adhesive composites (SACs) on polymerization kinetics, cell metabolic activity, and sealing ability. SACs were formulated using urethane dimethacrylate as the base monomer and triethylene glycol dimethacrylate. Additionally, 10 wt.% of distinct functional monomers were added - 10-methacryloyloxydecyl dihydrogen phosphate, glycerol phosphate dimethacrylate (GPDM), 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) or hydroxyethyl acrylamide (HEAA). ATR-FTIR was used to determine real-time polymerization kinetics (20 min, n = 3). The final extrapolated conversion and polymerization rates were determined (DC

,max;
Rp

,max). The DC

,max values were employed to calculate volumetric shrinkage. The MTT assay was performed on MDPC-23 cells using disc extracts at different concentrations (n = 8). Class V cavities were prepared in 60 sound human molars, assigned to six groups (n = 10), depending on the composite used and aging type (T0 or TC, if thermocycled for 10 000 cycles). One-way ANOVA, two-way, and Kruskal–Wallis tests were employed to treat the data (ɑ = 0.05). Varying the functional monomers had a large impact on DC,max, as confirmed by one-way ANOVA (p<0.001). The highest was obtained for HEMA (64 ± 3%). The HEMA and HEAA formulations were found to be significantly more toxic at concentrations below 100%. For microleakage, having a functional monomer or not did not show any improvement, irrespective of margin or aging period (Mann–Whitney U, p > 0.05). Larger functional monomers MDP and GPDM affected polymerization properties. Conversely, their acidity did not seem to be detrimental to cell metabolic activity. Regarding sealing ability, it seems that the functional monomers did not bring an advantage to the composites. Varying the functional monomer in SACs had a clear impact on the polymerization kinetics as well as on their cytotoxic potential. However, it did not confer better microleakage and sealing. Claiming self-adhesiveness based only on functional monomers seems dubious.
The Correlation of Land Survey and Satellite Gravity Data. Study Case: Timor Leste Area

Published: September 2023

Abstract
The gravity method has been widely used in tectonic studies and the determination of geological structures. Besides land surveys, gravity data can also be measured by using satellites. However, the gravity data obtained from the satellite is usually not as good as the land survey. For example, the satellite data provided by Topex has a resolution of 1-minute grids, while the land survey could have a higher resolution. It means the gravity data obtained from the satellite cannot be as detailed as the land survey. To understand the relationship between both data, we calculate the correlation on the CBA, regional, and residual map. We also compared the maps qualitatively with geological data. During our investigation in the Timor Leste area, it was found that the correlation value between the CBA, regional, and residual from both data (land survey and satellite) is 0.703, 0.722, and 0.015 sequentially. The CBA and regional of both gravity data have the best agreement, but the residual nearly doesn’t have any correlation. This result is because the satellite data has 1-minute grids in resolution, which means the spacing between the gravity data is roughly about 1800 m. With that spacing, the full wavelength that can be observed is more than 3600 m, so anomalies in lower wavelengths usually associated with shallow depths are not good enough to be appropriately measured. Vice versa, the longer wavelengths will be sufficiently provided by satellite. The long-wavelength of gravity data has considerable potential to be used in investigating regional anomalies, such as basement and general geologic mapping. Our results also show that the regional gravity anomaly has high compatibility with geological data.
Generating 1D depth profile of shear-wave velocity from ambient noise cross-correlation: application to Jakarta array

Published: September 2023

Abstract
In the past decade, cross-correlations of ambient seismic noise have been exploited in various applications to model the shallow-to-deep structure of Earth’s interior through tomographic inversions. The stack of cross-correlations between a 2-station pair represents empirical Green’s function and comprises the information of the subsurface structure between those stations. In practice, noise correlation function (NCF) is analyzed to reconstruct surface wave group or phase velocity dispersion; then, the dispersion data is used to model shear-wave velocity (Vs). This study presents a case for temporary seismic networks deployed in the Jakarta Basin; we applied a two-step routine to obtain a representative 1D Vs profile beneath an array. First, we extracted our array’s average phase velocity dispersion based on the relationship between NCF’s spectra and the Bessel function. Then, we invert for the 1D depth profile of Vs using a transdimensional Bayesian inversion to allow for exploring a number of layers in parameterizations. We successfully generate a 1D Vs profile up to 5 km depth reflecting the regional stratigraphy of the Jakarta Basin. In general, a sedimentary basin fill covers the area reaching a depth of 650 m. We suggest that this simple routine can be undertaken for other ambient noise cross-correlation cases; such a 1D depth profile would be beneficial to be used as a reference model.
Early Analysis of Vulnerability Study in Lake Toba
Authors: Rochim D N 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
Lake Toba is located on the Sumatra Island, Indonesia. The subduction of the Indo-Australian plate dominates the tectonic setting in this region underneath the Eurasian plate. This area has active seismicity, especially from the subduction process in the West. Most rocks in Lake Toba are tuff sediments. This study’s objective is to map the vulnerability index that can be used to identify high damage areas in the region if an intense event occurs. We use 24 three-component seismometers installed around Lake Toba. We gathered good quality recording data for one day on each station. Next, we divided our data into 1 hour and performed the time to frequency domain using the fast Fourier transform. Lastly, we divided the horizontal and vertical components and extracted some parameters such as dominant frequency value and its amplitude. The dominant frequency value ranged from 0.18 to 27.6 Hz, H/V amplification was found to be between 2.84 and 11.9, and shear wave velocity (Vs30) was found to be between 240 and 760 m/s, and the soil vulnerability index (Kg) was found to be between 0.42-43.4. The study area’s highest vulnerability is in the southeast, whereas the study area’s lowest vulnerability is located in the West and North East.
Preliminary Results on Low Frequency Passive Seismic (LFPS) Study in Lake Toba
Authors: Yusami R , Saqina A , Zaky D A , Satiawan S 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
Sumatra Island is an island located in the subduction zone of the Indo-Australian plate towards Eurasia. The geological structure on the island of Sumatra is the Semangko Fault. There is active volcanic activity, such as the Bukit Barisan Mountains, which makes Sumatra Island vulnerable to volcanic eruptions. The study was conducted in Lake Toba, North Sumatra, using earthquake data from the IRIS station. The purpose of this study is to investigate the amplitude in determining the presence of fluid reservoirs (magma) and to analyze the volcanics of the Lake Toba region using the Low Frequency Passive Seismic (LFPS) method by utilizing attributes such as maximum amplitude Vertical-to-Horizontal Spectral Ratio (VHSR), maximum amplitude of Power Spectral Density (PSD) Z, and the maximum amplitude spectrum of the Z component, which are used as indicators to connect the subsurface fluid reservoir by looking at the spectrum curve. Previous research has linked the presence of a reservoir to the peak amplitude spectrum in the vertical component in the frequency range 1-6 Hz. Based on the research results from the analysis of all attribute parameters obtained, the maximum anomaly of the maximum VHSR amplitude spectrum, the maximum PSD Z amplitude, and the maximum Z component amplitude spectrum indicate that the location with the highest subsurface fluid reservoir potential is in the Northwest-Southeast around Lake Toba and Samosir island. These results support previous research. Volcanic activity in Lake Toba is relatively lower because the amplitude spectrum values of all attribute parameters are not too high.
