Abstract
Introduction:
Subdural hematomas (SDHs) are common clinical entities after a traumatic brain injury (TBI). Due to the complicated pathophysiological mechanism of SDHs, the further clinical course of patients with SDHs is affected by pathological entities such as both global and focal ischemia beneath hematoma, reactive hyperemia/hyperperfusion, coagulopathy, delayed hematomas. The hormonal and metabolic imbalance that exists in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) can have a positive and negative impact on bone mineral density (BMD). So far, a small number of studies with BMD estimation in women with PCOS have been performed and the results are heterogeneous, while several studies have reported that the prevalence of cerebrovascular risk factors is higher in women with PCOS.
Aim
To examine BMD in women with PCOS and the impact on the pathophysiological mechanism of SDH, and the tendency to craniofacial injuries with reference to laboratory and biochemical prognostic factors of patient outcomes.
Material and methods
We evaluated 48 women with PCOS (age: 25.35 ± 5.16 years) and 20 healthy women of the control group (CG), matched by BMI (age: 32.47 ± 5.70 years), cranium BMD, and homocysteine levels.
Results
There was a significant increase in the mean homocysteine level ​​(39 ± 1.36) in the PCOS group, and the BMD(Vault) (0.84 ± 0.11) as well.
Conclusion
Women with PCOS, matched by BMI and equalized by age, together with the homocysteine and BDM results, a correlation between PCOS and the occurrence of subdural hematoma exists. Prevalence of cerebrovascular risk factors is higher in women with PCOS due to higher homocysteine levels.

Effects of emissions allocations and ambition assessments immediately based on equity
Authors: Dekker Mark , Vuuren Detlef van , Schaeffer Michiel , du Pont Yann Robiou 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
National emissions targets are collectively insufficient to align with the Paris Agreement. The literature quantifying national emissions trajectories based on equity principles will inform the Global Stocktake on the ambition of national 2030 targets. Ambition assessments based on trajectories that start at present-day emissions levels inherently reward past inaction thus far, and increasingly do so into the future. Here we quantify emissions trajectories based on equity principles applied with immediate effect. We find national targets of G7 countries, Russia and China responsible for most of the global ambition gap, while only those of some countries in the Global South align with their 1.5°C allocation. Discontinuous trajectories not starting at current emissions levels imply stronger international support that can mobilize the capital needed to implement the 1.5°C trajectory globally. The difference between allocation with or without discontinuity has remarkable consequences for the relative implied contributions among high-income countries to international support.
Effect of template and primer-probe concentration level on shape of qPCR amplification curve
Authors: Ng Wenfa 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
Quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) is the gold standard approach for the sensitive detection of a variety of pathogens in the bacterial genre. This work sought to understand the effect of template concentration and primer and probe concentration on the shape of the qPCR amplification curve from a computer simulation perspective. An in-house MATLAB qPCR simulator was developed for this work, and all modelling conditions are in the ideal state. For example, the qPCR efficiency, polymerisation efficiency, and efficiency in which primers and probe bind to the DNA are assumed to be ideal. Results reveal that Ct value becomes larger with lower initial template concentration as smaller amount of template requires more cycles for the cumulative fluorescence to cross a threshold. On the other hand, lower primer and probe concentration would give rise to saturated qPCR amplification curve at lower fluorescence intensity. Overall, the results concur with theoretical predictions, and the qPCR simulator may be a good teaching tool for the theoretical basics of qPCR.

Abstract

Despite the increased frequency of extreme climate events including their significance in Nepal's socio-economy, climate studies have seldom considered extremes, and even fewer have considered them in combination with temperature and precipitation. This study aimed at examining the trend of climate variables in Gandaki Province, Nepal. Daily temperature and precipitation data of five stations between 1990 and 2020 were analyzed. Modified Mann–Kendall and Sen's slope methods were used to detect trend and magnitude. The Mann–Whitney–Pettitt test was used to detect abrupt changes, and the Pearson correlation coefficient was used to find the correlation. The result showed an increasing trend and a significant abrupt change in the maximum temperature for all stations. A decreasing trend in the minimum temperature was observed in the Himalayas and the Hill region, whereas an increasing trend was seen in Siwalik and Terai regions. The Jomsom station, however, behaved differently by showing an increasing trend in precipitation and the number of rainy days. The majority of the temperature indices showed an increasing trend unlike precipitation indices, which showed a mixed result. The maximum five-day precipitation and consecutive dry days showed a significant positive correlation with altitude. The results indicate an increase in the frequency and intensity of extreme climate conditions in Gandaki Province.

ABSTRACT:The power amplifier determines the output power of the audio amplifier and in this part there will be heat dissipation which is proportional to the output power of the amplifier. To overcome the problem of the audio amplifier, a class D amplifier was designed. The amplifier designed in this paper is Power Amplifier Class D Fixed Frequency Second Order that uses a fixed frequency triangular signal generator and an order 2 low-pass filter. In this case, a power amplifier is designed for a subwoofer that has a frequency range of 20 Hz – 200 Hz because in the audio frequency range it requires relatively large power. The design of the power amplifier and its measurement using the Circuit Maker simulator. The amplifier can work to amplify signals with a maximum amplitude of 1 Vp and a frequency range of 20 Hz – 200 Hz. At a frequency of 20 Hz the shape of the signal is not as good as that of the 200 Hz frequency signal because it is far from the cut-off frequency of the low - pass filter, which is designed to be 250 Hz.ABSTRAK:Penguat daya menentukan besarnya daya keluaran penguat audio dan pada bagian ini akan terjadi disipasi panas yang sebanding dengan besar daya keluaran penguat.

Introduction. Currently, researchers have no consensus on the classification of the Kipchak languages. The dictionaries compiled by P. S. Pallas provide valuable insights into the 18th-century Tatar, Bashkir, Nogai, and Kazakh languages. Goals. This article attempts an analysis of the latter’s graphic features in order to enhance our understanding of the development of dialect-classifying graphophonic isoglosses. Materials and methods. The paper examines the sixteen isoglosses identified by A. V. Dybo based on materials from modern Tatar, Bashkir, Kazakh and Nogai, and shows how numbers of common isoglosses for these languages differed in the 18th century. The dictionaries of P. S. Pallas have been uploaded to the online LingvoDoc platform, all words in these dictionaries now have parallels with modern literary languages, and with Turkic proto-forms according to EDAL. The dictionaries are also linked together by etymological connections. Results. The analysis shows that in the 18th century the languages were approximately equidistant from each other, some specific closeness observed just between Tatar and Bashkir, though Bashkir-Kazakh parallels differ by one innovation only, and no specific proximity between Kazakh and Nogai observed. It can be assumed that 20th-century communication resulted in a secondary convergence of Kazakh with Nogai and their common distancing from Tatar and Bashkir, the latter’s speakers in turn having become closer to each other. It is interesting to note that in 18th-century Bashkir and Nogai other archaic reflexes were represented, in particular, *s (Bashkir), *č (Nogai, Bashkir), *ƛ (š Nogai), these changes have occurred later. Conclusions. Thus, the analysis of the vocabularies created in the 18th century casts doubt on the traditional classification of N. Baskakov, A. Samoylovich, K. Musaev, and A. Savelyev based on the modern languages. At the same time, it should be noted that A. Dybo and O. Mudrak turned to glottochronology and applied morphological linguostatistics to have concluded together as to the specific proximity of Kazakh and Nogai, which is also not confirmed by the data of the graphics of the 18th-century texts.

Introduction: Active patient involvement is part of a patient centered care approach that must be facilitated by all health care providers, including in the hospitals. The concern of nurses being exposed by the Covid-19 virus during this pandemic is one of obstacle and challenging during providing patient engagement in nursing care. Patient engagement is a methode to facilitate and support patient involvement in the care process by making patients as an active partner in improving their quality of care. Objectives: This study aims to determine the relationship between nurse self-efficacy and patient engagement in nursing care during the Covid-19 pandemic. Methods: This study used a cross sectional research design. The respondents in this study were all nurses in the inpatient room, whether it was a Covid or non-Covid inpatient room, totaling 238 nurses. Data collection in this study was carried out using an online questionnaire: the Self-Efficacy in Patient Centeredness Questionnaire (SEPCQ-27) and the Patient Engagement Index (PEI) questionnaire which had been modified by the researcher. Results: The results of bivariate analysis using Pearson correlation showed that there was a significant relationship between nurse self-efficacy and patient engagement (p < 0.001). Conclusions: Nurses' self efficacy in engaging patients is an important internal factor for nurses to support optimal patient participation and active involvement in the nursing care process.

Published: June 2023

Background: Emotion regulation involves the modulation of emotional experiences to facilitate goal attainment. Conversely, emotional difficulties are a pattern of emotional experiences and expressions that interfere with goal-directed behavior. Objectives: Design a new model to predict the presence of depression in women during pregnancy. Methods: Non-experimental, cross-sectional, explanatory study of depression in women during pregnancy (logistic regression) considering the variables emotional intelligence, parental care, anxiety and stress. The sample consisted of 273 pregnant women-mothers between 14 and 38 weeks pregnant, aged between 18 and 38 years, for a mean of 25.67 years (SD= 5.8). Results: The regression model is valid and significant in predicting the probability of occurrence of depression, explaining 82.4% of the variance of DV (Presence of depression) by the variables age, clarity and repair of depression dimensions. emotional intelligence, the maternal and paternal overprotection dimensions, and paternal care of the parental style variables; stress, work and single marital status. There is a 95.2% probability of success in the depression result when each of the model variables is incorporated. Conclusions: The best predictors of depression in pregnancy would be, on the one hand, higher levels or values of the variables and indicators age, reparation, maternal overprotection, paternal care, and stress, and on the other hand, low scores in the dimensions and values of clarity variables, and paternal overprotection; added to whether the woman works and is single. This combination of variables would be the individual and contextual conditions that influence said appearance.

Abstract
Failure starts with creation of a crack, then the propagation of the crack and eventually the fracture of the material. Furthermore, material selection, geometry, processing and residual stresses are critical factors that may contribute to uncertainty and prospective failure mechanisms in engineering. These issues may also arise in computational analysis, a problematic model, for instance, a three-dimensional surface fracture that may necessitate numerous degrees of freedom during analysis. However, considering the multiple incidents of material failure, detailed analysis and efforts to prevent premature material failure for safety and engineering integrity can be carried out. Thus, the objective of this study is to model crack growth in a surface-cracked structure. Aluminium alloy 7075-T6 was the material of interest in this study. The S-version finite element method (SFEM) was used to study fracture propagation. The numerical approach developed in this research was the probabilistic SFEM. Instead of mesh rebuilding, a typical finite element approach, the SFEM uses global–local element overlay method to create a fatigue crack growth model, which was then used for crack research. Empirical computation and previous experimental data were used to evaluate the stress intensity factor (SIF), surface crack growth and fatigue life. The SIF was determined using a virtual crack closure method (VCCM). In addition, the probabilistic approach is also a critical method to generate random parameters, such as Monte Carlo and bootstrap methods. The SIF, fatigue life and surface crack growth were validated and deemed to be within the acceptable range.
