Background
Timely treatment with neuraminidase inhibitors (NAI) can reduce severe outcomes in influenza patients.

Aim
We assessed the impact of antiviral treatment on in-hospital deaths of laboratory-confirmed influenza patients in 11 European Union countries from 2010/11 to 2019/20.

Methods
Case-based surveillance data from hospitalised patients with known age, sex, outcome, ward, vaccination status, timing of antiviral treatment, and hospitalisation were obtained. A mixed effect logistic regression model using country as random intercept was applied to estimate the adjusted odds ratio (aOR) for in-hospital death in patients treated with NAIs vs not treated.

Results
Of 19,937 patients, 31% received NAIs within 48 hours of hospital admission. Older age (60–79 years aOR 3.0, 95% CI: 2.4–3.8; 80 years 8.3 (6.6–10.5)) and intensive care unit admission (3.8, 95% CI: 3.4–4.2) increased risk of dying, while early hospital admission after symptom onset decreased risk (aOR 0.91, 95% CI: 0.90–0.93). NAI treatment initiation within 48 hours and up to 7 days reduced risk of dying (0–48 hours aOR 0.51, 95% CI: 0.45–0.59; 3–4 days 0.59 (0.51–0.67); 5–7 days 0.64 (0.56–0.74)), in particular in patients 40 years and older (e.g. treatment within 48 hours: 40–59 years aOR 0.43, 95% CI: 0.28–0.66; 60–79 years 0.50 (0.39–0.63); ≥80 years 0.51 (0.42–0.63)).

Conclusion
NAI treatment given within 48 hours and possibly up to 7 days after symptom onset reduced risk of in-hospital death. NAI treatment should be considered in older patients to prevent severe outcomes.

Abstract— For the first time, Ultra-Thin Body and Buried Oxide Fully Depleted Silicon-On-Insulator (UTBB FDSOI) n-channel with Dynamic Threshold MOS configuration (DTMOS) using the SELBOX (Selective Buried OXide) substrate will be analyzed. The drain and substrate current, transconductance (gm) and Subthreshold Slope (SS) will be compared in the DTMOS mode and the standard biasing configuration for different gap width (WGAP) of SELBOX. Additionally, the output conductance and the transconductance gain also studied through numerical simulations. The results indicate that the SELBOX structure in DTMOS mode is competitive candidates for analog applications.

The Notion of “Development” in Ubuntu
Authors: Sartorius Raphael 
Published: January 2023

Abstract
The Sustainable Development Report 2019 points out that the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) might not be achieved, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa (sic). This paper tries to investigate alternatives to the hegemonic “development” discourse and ideas of “development”: what would be the notion of “development” in Ubuntu? The paper proposes a contextual understanding of “development” rooted in tradition, religion and culture by using Michel Foucault and Ferdinand de Saussure as a theoretical basis. The heterogenous understanding of Ubuntu and its diverse understanding definition of “development” are an argument against universalising “development” ideas, but for tailor-made solutions. The paper follows the hypothesis that the SDGs rely on premises of epistemologies of the Global North which are (post)colonial. It also proposes that failing “development” strategies rely on epistemologies from the Global North which are excluding, imperial, Eurocentric and rely on abyssal – extractive and postcolonial – productions of knowledge (Sousa Santos 2018). The paper is a contribution to the decolonisation of knowledge in the Global North, to challenge hegemonic northern epistemologies and to bring them into contact with knowledge from epistemologies of the Global South.
Religious Actors for Gender Equality – SDG 5: A Reflection on the Side by Side Faith Movement for Gender Justice
Authors: Thomsen Jørgen 
Published: January 2023

Abstract
The article reflects on the practical experience of the Side by Side Faith Movement for Gender Justice (SbS): faith actors often play a decisive role in the formation of values, concepts and beliefs that determine how women and men see themselves and each other and how they thus practise gender equality – or not. In both cases, faith actors are key partners in the transformation of ideas and practices towards achieving gender equality – SDG 5. SbS began in 2015 in response to a gradual dominance by restrictive faith actors’ voices in the international debate on gender. Faith-based development agencies and local faith actors already involved in pro-gender-equality practice began building national chapters of SbS to mobilise, organise and strategise our work and have it reflected in international advocacy – including for a change of policy towards improved engagement with religious actors. The article presents this experience in the practical realm of “Community”, whilst the progress made in that realm can only be understood with its intimate link to the realm of “Cosmology”: it is because of what we believe as faith actors that we do what we do. Therefore, interventions for change (Agenda 2030) must be rooted in people’s values, convictions and beliefs if the change is to be sustainable.

Published: January 2023

Background: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a major cause of liver-related morbidity and mortality worldwide. Epidemiological data of HCV infection in the Canadian province of Manitoba are limited. Methods: A population-based retrospective study was conducted using data from the Manitoba Centre for Health Policy repository. Using the test results provided by the Cadham provincial laboratory, individuals in Manitoba with a diagnosis of HCV infection were identified. Annual prevalence and incidence rates (crude and standardized) were calculated for the overall population and stratified by sex, regional health authority (RHA), residence area, income quintile, and special population groups (children, older adults, and pregnant persons). Results: A total of 8,721 HCV cases were diagnosed between 1998 and 2018 in Manitoba. Overall crude HCV incidence and prevalence were estimated as 0.03% and 0.37% during the study period, respectively. No significant change was observed in the standardized HCV incidence rate (per 100,000) during the study period (54.3 in 1998 and 54.8 in 2018). However, the standardized HCV prevalence (per 100,000) increased from 52.5 (95% CI 39.2–68.7) in 1998 to 655.2 (95% CI 605.9–707.3) in 2018. An overall average incidence rate based on sex, RHA, region, income, and special population groups was observed to be higher in males (40.1), Winnipeg RHA (42.7), urban region (42.3), low-income quintiles (78.5), and pregnant persons (94.3), respectively. Conclusion: Although incidence rates of HCV infection in Manitoba appeared to have initially declined, rates showed an upward trend by the end of the study period while prevalence increased steadily.

OBJECTIVE
Despite the disabling deficits of motor apraxia and sensory ataxia resulting from intraoperative injury of the superior thalamocortical tracts (TCTs), region-specific electrophysiological localization is currently lacking. Herein, the authors describe a novel TCT mapping paradigm.

METHODS
Three patients, 1 asleep and 2 awake, underwent glioma resection affecting primarily the somatosensory cortex and underlying TCT. Stimulation was performed at the median, ulnar, and posterior tibial nerves. Parameters comprised single anodal pulses (duration 200–500 μsec, 2.1–4.7 Hz) with a current ranging from 10 to 25 mA. Recordings were captured with a bipolar stimulation probe, avoiding the classic collision technique. Positive localization sites were used to tractographically reconstruct the TCT in the third case.

RESULTS
Employing one electrophysiological paradigm, the TCT was localized subcortically in all 3 cases by using a bipolar probe, peak range of 19.6–29.2 msec, trough of 23.3–34.8 msec, stimulation range of 10–25 mA. In the last case, tractographic reconstruction of the TCT validated a highly accurate TCT localization within a specific region of the posterior limb of the internal capsule.

CONCLUSIONS
The authors describe the first electrophysiological technique for intraoperative localization and protection of the TCT in both asleep and awake craniotomies with tractographic validation, while avoiding the collision paradigm. None of the above paradigms have been previously reported. More data are required to further validate this technique.
Real-time optical dart detection and scoring algorithm for steel tip dartboards
Authors: Domazet Ervin 
Published: January 2023

In this paper, we present a real-time scoring algorithm for steel dartboards, by using five (configurable) low-cost cameras that are positioned parallel to the baseline (surface) of the dartboard. In order to achieve that, firstly the cameras are placed at suggested places. Then, their central focus is configured to look at the center of the dartboard. Subsequently, the dartboard is calibrated and thresholds are adjusted for each camera respectively. After this step, the software runs and processes in real-time, detecting the darts with high precision as they are thrown. The algorithm is a daemon process, requiring high processing power. We detect parts that require long processing times by profiling the algorithm. Using techniques of parallel-programming, important parts of the algorithm are adjusted to run in parallel, in order to achieve a real-time effect. In our experiments, our algorithm achieved a detection accuracy rate of 99.63%, by using five low-cost cameras having an 85 degree horizontal field of view (HFOV). Simultaneously, each throw is detected in less than 600 ms, giving the real-time effect to players. This algorithm is tested with a variety of professional steel dartboards, and dart arrows of different materials (tungsten, steel etc.). The obtained outcomes indicate the robustness of the proposed algorithm, producing promising results.

Background: Reduced kidney function is related to brain atrophy and higher risk of dementia. It is not known whether kidney impairment is associated with higher levels of circulating amyloid-β and brain amyloid-β deposition, which could contribute to elevated risk of dementia. Objective: To investigate whether kidney impairment is associated with higher levels of circulating amyloid-β and brain amyloid-β deposition. Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed within the community–based Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) Study cohort. We used estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) based on serum creatinine and cystatin C levels and urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR) to assess kidney function. Amyloid positivity was defined as a standardized uptake value ratios > 1.2 measured with florbetapir positron emission tomography (PET) (n = 340). Plasma amyloid-β1 - 40 and amyloid-β1 - 42 were measured using a fluorimetric bead-based immunoassay (n = 2,569). Results: Independent of demographic and cardiovascular risk factors, a doubling of ACR was associated with 1.10 (95% CI: 1.01,1.20) higher odds of brain amyloid positivity, but not eGFR (odds ratio per 15 ml/min/1.73 m2 lower eGFR: 1.08; 95% CI: 0.95,1.23). A doubling of ACR was associated with a higher level of plasma amyloid-β1 - 40 (standardized difference: 0.12; 95% CI: 0.09,0.14) and higher plasma amyloid-β1 - 42 (0.08; 95% CI: 0.05,0.10). Lower eGFR was associated with higher plasma amyloid-β1 - 40 (0.36; 95% CI: 0.33,0.39) and higher amyloid-β1 - 42 (0.32; 95% CI: 0.29,0.35). Conclusion: Low clearance of amyloid-β and elevated brain amyloid positivity may link impaired kidney function with elevated risk of dementia. kidney function should be considered in interpreting amyloid biomarker results in clinical and research setting.

<div class="page" title="Page 1"><div class="layoutArea"><div class="column"><p><span>This paper is review wireless sensor network and it’s energy consumption at different deployment methods. Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) are emerging with many applications, because of the advances in large scale wireless communications. These networks are deployed to serve single objective application, with high optimization requirements such as power saving. The WSN design problem is of high complexity, and requires robust methodologies, including simulation support. We use NS2 as simulation program for this model. In this paper, the authors compare the energy consumption on three different deployment methods of WSN. These deployment methods refer to topology deployment. In this simulation, we deploy WSN on grid, array, and random topology. We use different numbers of WSN nodes for showing the scalability. We use AODV as routing protocol and CBR as the traffic. After that, we compare the energy consumption that consume by that networks. Based on simulation result, the array topology is the best topology for deployment. This topology is the lowest on energy consumption, 0.560%. </span></p></div></div></div>
