Published: June 2023

Abstract
We describe nine internationally spreading ceftriaxone-resistant FC428 clone-related Neisseria gonorrhoeae strains with a typical ceftriaxone-resistant phenotype (MIC ≥ 0.5 mg/L) isolated from Guangzhou and Shanghai between 2019 and 2020. The adaptability analysis further involved all FC428-related N. gonorrhoeae strains reported in China and our data demonstrated that three representative clones (MLST-ST1903_NG-STAR-ST1143, MLST-ST1600_NG-STAR-ST2208, and MLST-ST13943_NG-STAR-ST233) were observed to settle in China in evolution. Specifically, enhancing antimicrobial resistance surveillance of the three representative clones is crucial for understanding the transmission trajectory and optimizing therapy strategies.

Published: June 2023

Abstract

Objectives
This study aimed to classify the alveolar ridge of the anterior maxillary edentulous and investigate the incidence of perforation and associated risk factors via virtual implant placement using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT).
Methods
The morphology of 85 patients who have lost a single tooth in the maxillary esthetic zone was assessed by CBCT. The width and height of the residual crest alveolar bone were measured. Root form implants (3.3 mm*10 mm and 3.3 mm*12 mm) were placed virtually in the edentulous area, and the risk factors associated with perforation were analyzed.
Results
Class Ib was the most common type of ridge (n = 26; 30.6%). Concavity bone thickness (CT) was significantly different (P < 0.05) among the four types of alveolar bone. The long axis angle of alveolar bone (LAAB) and the differences between the LAAB and implant placement angle (IPA) in the nonperforation areas were significantly lower compared with those in the perforation areas. After implantation, the overall occurrence of labial bone perforation was 56.5%, and perforation mostly occurred in Class II ridges.
Conclusions
Class II ridges and lateral incisors were at relatively high risk for labial perforation after implant placement. We thus recommend that clinicians determine the ridge classification, tooth type, CT, LAAB and IPA.
Influencing Factors in the Stagnation of the Baiu Front that Induced Heavy Rainfall in July 2020 over Kyushu, Japan
Authors: Moteki Qoosaku 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
The influencing factors of the long-term stagnation of the Baiu front that induced heavy rainfall in July 2020 over Kyushu, Japan, were examined. In July 2020, the position of the Baiu front from a weather chart at 130°E remained stationary over Kyushu for 20 days, and that was the longest from 2002–2021. By examining a certain index of the Yellow Sea High (YSH), which is a necessary condition for Baiu front stagnation near Kyushu, it was confirmed that in 2020, a positive high-pressure anomaly persisted over the Yellow Sea until the end of July. The YSH maintenance was due to the significant negative sea surface temperature (SST) anomaly over the Yellow Sea. The significant negative SST anomalies in the Yellow Sea were due to vertical mixing in ocean mixed layer in response to the strong winds of the extratropical cyclones. A rapid SST decrease ranging from 0.5–1.5°C/day was repeatedly occurred by ocean mixed layer deepening in association with the passage of the extratropical cyclones. The anomalous long-term stagnation of YSH due to the negative SST anomalies could have caused the Baiu front to remain stagnant over Kyushu until the end of July.
An Efficient and Adaptive Superframe Structure for IEEE 802.15.7-Based Real-time Sensor Networks
Authors: Bhutani Monica , Lall Brejesh , Agrawal Monika 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
The Internet is expanding with new bandwidth-intensive applications and the network's sensor count, resulting in spectrum constraints. The IEEE 802.15.7 standard specifies optical wireless communication (OWC) as a solution as it utilizes terahertz of unlicensed spectrum, is resistant to radio frequencies, and is more secure to harness. Nevertheless, the standard does not address the adaptive data demands of sensors, nor does it consider priority data transmission, which is a crucial quality of service demand. Wireless sensors are increasingly being used in personalized medical health care, and our proposed research focuses on their delay, adaptive traffic management, and overall network throughput. We have suggested a novel superframe structure that enables adaptive sleep mode for priority data handling. The proposed superframe structure is simulated for the contention access period (CAP) as well as the contention-free period (CFP). The suggested approach works in hybrid mode, i.e., with the CSMA/CA and GTS allocation techniques. We illustrate the importance of our proposed work by comparing it to IEEE 802.15.7 in terms of delay and throughput. Across both factors, the simulation results demonstrate a significant improvement. Additionally, we have computed the collision probability in our suggested adaptive superframe structure.

Authors: Otieno Robert Kennedy , Odhong Edward V. , Mutua James 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
Magnesium alloys are high potential materials for application in the aerospace and automotive industries due to their lightweight properties. They can help to lower dead weight and fuel consumption to contribute to sustainability and efficiency. It is possible to achieve high specific strength and high stiffness of the alloys by varying compositions of alloying elements. Applications of magnesium are limited due to its low strength and relatively low stiffness. This research focuses on a recipe of multicomponent alloys of magnesium with varied percentages of Mg, Al, Cu, Mn and Zn obtained from literature and optimizes the percentage compositions to obtain high specific strength and specific stiffness. Relationships among percentage constituents of the alloy components are examined in Matlab R2022b using multiple linear regression. Optimization is achieved using genetic algorithm to determine the specific strengths and stiffness. The resulting optimal alloy component percentages by weight are used for microstructure simulation of thermodynamic properties, diffusion and phase transformations of proposed alloy is done in MatCalc software version 6.04. Results show potential for improved mechanical properties resulting from disordered structure in the high entropy magnesium alloy. Future research should focus on production and characterization of the proposed alloy.

Authors: Dibetle Maseko , Kalema Billy Mathias 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
Numerous weaknesses, dangers, and risks to the data being distributed in the cloud environment are presented by cloud computing (CC). Data is an asset of all businesses, so all organizations should work to protect its security and integrity, especially those that deal with a lot of data that is generated frequently from many sources. Financial institutions handle a lot of consumer data; therefore, in order to earn the trust of their clients, they must make sure that their data is secure when put in the cloud. Destructive attacks that could result in significant financial losses, legal repercussions, and reputational damage could occur if appropriate safety measures and security governance processes and standards are not implemented. The purpose of this study was to create a data security governance model for the Software-as-a-Service cloud computing environment used by South African financial institutions. A conceptual model was developed based on four theories that served as the foundation for this study: the Technology-Organization-Environment model, information security theory, risk management theory and control and audit theory. This study used a quantitative methodology that involved statistical analysis of data gathered from South African financial institutions. The Krejcie and Morgan's technique was used to choose a sample size of 308 from an available population of 845 respondents. In order to test the proposed hypotheses, critical ratio was used. The results showed that for the development of SaaS cloud computing data security governance, technological factors and top management support are crucial.
Dataset Generation for Gujarati Language Using Handwritten Character Images
Authors: Suthar Sanket B , Thakkar Amit R 
Published: June 2023

Abstract

In pattern recognition, the handwritten character recognition (HCR) is considered as the classical challenge. Due to the unavailability of the dataset for different languages, it is complex to train the recognition system. In particular, the benchmark dataset for HCR in the Gujarati language is limited. To overcome this challenge, a proper dataset is required for experimentation. Hence, this work introduces dataset generation for the Gujarati language using pre-processing and classification techniques. Initially, the handwritten data is collected from various native Gujarati writers. In this work, there are three processes carried out to generate the dataset. They are pre-processing, segmentation and classification. Initially, the pre-processing stages like a selection of image, noise removal, normalization, conversion of integer value to double, grayscale image into a binary image, dimensionality reduction, and vector conversation are performed. Then, the pre-processed image is segmented using line segmentation, character segmentation and word segmentation. Then, for testing and training, the data are transformed into CSV file format (for converting the information to numbers). Finally, the data are classified using a Convolutional neural network (CNN). The kappa and FPR values achived by the CNN are 0.981 and0.189.

Published: June 2023

Abstract
Background
Dental caries, also known as tooth decay, is a widespread and long-standing condition that affects people of all ages. This ailment is caused by bacteria that attach themselves to teeth and break down sugars, creating acid that gradually wears away at the tooth structure. Tooth discoloration, pain, and sensitivity to hot or cold foods and drinks are common symptoms of tooth decay. Although this condition is prevalent among all age groups, it is especially prevalent in children with baby teeth. Early diagnosis of dental caries is critical to preventing further decay and avoiding costly tooth repairs. Currently, dentists employ a time-consuming and repetitive process of manually marking tooth lesions after conducting radiographic exams. However, with the rapid development of artificial intelligence in medical imaging research, there is a chance to improve the accuracy and efficiency of dental diagnosis.
Methods
This study introduces a data-driven model for accurately diagnosing dental decay through the use of Bitewing radiology images using convolutional neural networks. The dataset utilized in this research includes 713 patient images obtained from the Samin Maxillofacial Radiology Center located in Tehran, Iran. The images were captured between June 2020 and January 2022 and underwent processing via four distinct Convolutional Neural Networks. The images were resized to 100x100 and then divided into two groups: 70% (4219) for training and 30% (1813) for testing. The four networks employed in this study were AlexNet, ResNet50, VGG16, and VGG19.
Results
Among different well-known CNN architectures compared in this study, the VGG19 model was found to be the most accurate, with a 93.93% accuracy.
Conclusion
This promising result indicates the potential for developing an automatic AI-based dental caries diagnostic model from Bitewing images. It has the potential to serve patients or dentists as a mobile app or cloud-based diagnosis service (clinical decision support system).

Authors: Alnafie Mohammed Assaad 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
Purpose: The association of bilateral duplication of the superior cerebellar artery with an origin from the posterior cerebral artery is rare but of great interest to anatomists, radiologists, and surgeons. This article reports bilateral duplicated hypoplastic superior cerebellar arteries, one of which arises from a full-type fetal cerebral artery.
Material and method: A 59-year-old woman admitted to the neurosurgery department for a subarachnoid hemorrhage underwent a brain CTA with 3D reconstruction using « 3D slicer 4.11 » software. Brain CTA and the 3D model were used to analyze the configuration of the posterior circulation.
Results: CTA images and the 3D model showed an unusual configuration of the posterior circulation. The basilar artery prolonged the left vertebral artery, while the right vertebral artery ended in the right posterior inferior cerebellar artery. On both sides, a full-type fetal posterior cerebral artery and duplicated hypoplastic superior cerebellar artery were observed. Three cerebellar arteries arose from the basilar artery, while the fourth one emerged from the right fetal posterior cerebral artery.
Conclusion: Knowledge of such a configuration of the posterior circulation and others is necessary before radiological and surgical procedures. It helps to understand hemodynamic events, and neurovascular conflicts, improve revascularization procedures, and avoid surgical arterial and nervous injuries.

Abstract
Turkiye, which has very rich gene resources, is the homeland of figs as well as many plant species. The common fig species found in the natural population of our country is Ficus carica var. caprificus (male figs), Ficus carica var. domestica (female figs; edible figs) and Ficus carica var. rupestris. In the study, morphological and molecular characterization of a total of 42 genotypes, including genotypes obtained by selection breeding method from the Ficus carica var rupestris (Hausskn.) Browicz population, which is naturally spread in a limited area in Tunceli province, was performed. In this study, the qualitative and quantitative characteristics of 23 fig genotypes were evaluated. It was determined that tree growth habit, lateral shoot formation, apical dominancy and leaf length characteristics had the highest effect on phenotypic descriptions in fig genotypes. The genetic relationship between the genotypes was demonstrated with 12 SRAP primer combinations and 9 ISSR primers. As a result of the study, it was determined that the genetic similarity values ranged between 0.52 and 0.94. According to the weight grading test results, the genotypes had scores between 290 and 910. In terms of these selection criteria, the genotype FCR-19 received the highest score with 910, while this genotype received 865 points with FCR-6, FCR-7, FCR-14, FCR-15, FCR-20, FCR-24, FCR-27, FCR-31 and FCR-42 genotypes followed. At the end of the study, very detailed results on the genetic variation in the fig population in the region were obtained by morphological features and molecular methods. The 7 genotypes selected were propagated to determine their potential for dwarf rootstocks. The results of the present study may provide significant leads for further studies on this subject. Dwarf roostoscks for grafting fig is an essential tool for modern fruit growing.

Abstract

Pyrrolidines, nitrogenous organic compounds, are among the most intensively studied substances because of their antibacterial, antiviral, neurological, and promising antitumor effects. This study aimed to evaluate the pro-oxidative properties of SS13 on human colorectal carcinoma cell lines (HCT116 and Caco-2) using flow cytometry, western blot, fluorescence microscopy and qRT-PCR. Pyrrolidine SS13 induced the accumulation of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species in both cell lines. N-acetyl cysteine and Trolox, known antioxidants, reduced the increased levels of free radicals mediated by SS13 treatment. Moreover, modulation of both superoxide dismutase isoenzymes (SOD1, SOD2) was confirmed by western blot analysis and qRT-PCR. Oxidative stress was also associated with DNA damage response system activation and modulation of stress/survival pathways. We demonstrated for the first time that pyrrolidine SS13 is involved in the induction of autophagy by increasing the levels of autophagic markers (p-AMPK, p-ULK, LC3I/II, and ATG7). In addition, a significant decreasing effect on p62 protein levels was observed in both cell lines. Finally, chloroquine, an autophagy inhibitor, increased cell survival and suppressed the cytotoxic effect of SS13 in HCT116 and Caco-2 cells, indicating the involvement of SS13 in autophagy-mediated cell death. Taken together, our results suggest that oxidative stress and autophagy contribute to the antiproliferative effect of pyrrolidine SS13 on colorectal cancer cells.

Published: June 2023

Abstract
Over the past decade, the field of holography has gained significant ground due to advances in computational imaging. However, the utilization of computational tools is hampered by the mismatch between experimental setups and the conceptual model. We present dierentiable holography (@H), a novel framework for automatically self-calibrating experimental imperfections in inverse holographic imaging. The technique is demonstrated on auto-focused complex field imaging from a single intensity-only inline hologram.

This paper reviews a book entitled al-Sanī al-Maṭālib written by Kiai Nur Iman Mlangi Yogyakarta. This book is written in Arabic containing an interconnection between Arabic grammar and mysticism. This book is very interesting due to the fact that those two knowledges have its own rules. In addition, there is only small number of authors who had written with the same model, to name one of them is Shaikh Abdul Qadir bin Ahmad al-Kuhany with his work entitled Manniyat al-Fāqir al-Munjarid wa Sayrat al-Murīd al-Mutafarrid”. The book al-Sanī al-Maṭālib was predicted written in the late 18s Century or the beginning of 19s century, it is based on the period of Kiai Nur Iman’s life in which around the mid of 18s century. The grammatical rule of Arabic in this book was explained theo­sophically, it is started with the explanation of tauhid (oneness) as the basic learning for Muslim, followed by the meaning of each Arabic rule in mystical aspect.***Tulisan ini mereview buku yang berjudul al-Sanī al-Maṭālib yang ditulis oleh Kiai Nur Iman Mlangi Yogyakarta. Buku ini ditulis dalam bahasa Arab yang me­ngandung interkoneksi antara ilmu Nahwu (tata bahasa Arab) dengan mis­tisis­me. Buku ini sangat menarik karena kenyataan bahwa kedua pengetahuan tersebut memiliki aturan sendiri-sendiri. Selain itu, sangat sedikit penulis yang menulis dengan gaya seperti itu. Salah satunya adalah Syaikh Abdul Qadir bin Ahmad al-Kuhany dengan karyanya yang berjudul Manniyat al-Fāqir al-Munjarid wa Sayrat al-Murīd al-Mutafarrid. Buku al-Saniy al-Muthalib diduga telah ditulis pada akhir abad ke-18 atau awal abad ke-19, menurut periode kehidupan Kiai Nur Iman yaitu sekitar pertengahan abad ke-18. Aturan Nahwu dalam buku ini dijelaskan secara teosofi yang dimulai dengan penjelasan mengenai tauhid (keesaan Tuhan) sebagai kajian dasar bagi orang Islam, yang diikuti dengan makna dari masing-masing aturan bahasa Arab dalam aspek mistiknya.
IMAGINING HELL: A BURKEIAN ANALYSIS OF INDONESIAN RELIGIOUS AFTERLIFE IMAGES
Authors: Suwarno Peter 
Published: June 2023

This paper is not only dealing with depiction of hell (divine punishment) which is very popular depicted by the speech and media news in Indonesia, but also description on meaning, and the possibility on motive behind that description. Applying Burke theory on logology, this paper revealed that the depiction of hell punishment constituted the ritual of purity. Based on the cycle of order, feeling of guilty, redemption through sacrifice to achieve the purity, general depiction on hell are a reflection of the challenges and complexity of legal rules and regulation that exactly will be broken off. This violation of the rule creates a sense of guilty and sin which come out as all the problems and difficulties that the majority of Indonesian must hold – the situation that generates scapegoat. The victims of the scapegoat became the apparent sinners, and the punishment is the sacrifaction which create satisfaction and a sense of clean up.***Tulisan ini tidak hanya untuk membahas penggambaran neraka (hukum­an akhirat) yang sangat populer sebagai­mana digambar­kan dalam pidato dan media di Indonesia, tetapi juga untuk mengungkapkan makna dan kemungkinan motif di balik gam­baran tersebut.

Berdasarkan siklus ke­tertiban, rasa bersalah, pe­nebusan melalui pe­ngorban­an untuk mencapai kemurnian, gambar­an hukum­an di neraka adalah cerminan dari tantangan dan komplek­sitas aturan dan hukum yang pasti akan dilanggar. Pe­langgar­an ini mencipta­kan rasa bersalah dan dosa yang di­wujudkan dalam bentuk semua masalah dan kesulitan bahwa mayoritas penduduk Indonesia harus tahan-situasi yang me­nimbulkan kambing hitam. Para korban yang me­rupakan kam­bing hitam menjadi orang berdosa ter­kutuk, yang hukumannya me­rupakan sebuah pengorban­an, men­ciptakan kepuasan dan rasa dibersihkan.
