Abstract
Lahore (Pakistan), being an industrial city, has high emission of aerosols that affects and contaminates the air quality. Aerosols cause serious diseases in living organisms, upon inhalation. Therefore, the abatement of aerosols is necessary to restrict their infectious activities. In this project, ionic wind isolated from dielectric barrier discharge plasma (DBD plasma) has been utilized to abate the aerosols trapped in Surgical Mask and KN95 Respirator. In order to trap the aerosols, surgical mask and KN95 respirator were exposed to ambient atmosphere in the industrialized area of Lahore (Pakistan). Trapping of airborne particulates is evidenced by optical microscope. Air-exposed samples were then irradiated to the ionic wind extracted from DBD plasma. DBD plasma setup consists of two electrodes separated by a dielectric material and powered by a high-voltage AC supply (30kV). A negatively biased (15kV) third electrode placed atop DBD setup is used to isolate the ions. The DBD plasma was operated at 12 and 20 kV AC emitting ions of 50 and 200 keV, respectively. To infer the chemical composition of ambient aerosols collected in the surgical Mask and KN95 Respirator before and after the exposure of ions, FTIR has been employed. Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy technique has been used to extract the elemental detection, before and after the treatment of aerosols. There is significant reduction of the functional groups in the ionic wind irradiated samples as compared to those of air-exposed. Compositional analyses show that there exists a less concentration of elements after irradiation of ionic wind while in air-exposed samples, toxic elements have a large proportion. It appears from the result that irradiation of ionic wind has played a significant effect on the abatement of aerosols. Therefore, the DBD device can effectively abate/inactivate/eradicate the aerosols from the ambient environment.

Ginsenoside Rg1 Suppresses Ferroptosis of Renal Tubular Epithelial
Cells in Sepsis-induced Acute Kidney Injury via the FSP1-CoQ10-
NAD(P)H Pathway
Authors: Guo Jun , Chen Long , Ma Min 
Published: June 2023

Introduction:
Sepsis-induced acute kidney injury is related to an increased
mortality rate by modulating ferroptosis through ginsenoside Rg1. In this study, we explored
the specific mechanism of it.

Methods:
Human renal tubular epithelial cells (HK-2) were transfected with oe-ferroptosis
suppressor protein 1 and treated with lipopolysaccharide for ferroptosis induction, and
they were then treated with ginsenoside Rg1 and ferroptosis suppressor protein 1 inhibitor.
Ferroptosis suppressor protein 1, CoQ10, CoQ10H2, and intracellular NADH levels in
HK-2 cells were assessed by Western blot, ELISA kit, and NAD/NADH kit.
NAD+/NADH ratio was also calculated, and 4-Hydroxynonal fluorescence intensity was
assessed by immunofluorescence. HK-2 cell viability and death were assessed by CCK-8
and propidium iodide staining. Ferroptosis, lipid peroxidation, and reactive oxygen species
accumulation were assessed by Western blot, kits, flow cytometry, and C11
BODIPY 581/591 molecular probe. Sepsis rat models were established by cecal ligation
and perforation to investigate whether ginsenoside Rg1 regulated the ferroptosis suppressor
protein 1-CoQ10-NAD(P)H pathway in vivo.

Results:
LPS treatment diminished ferroptosis suppressor protein 1, CoQ10, CoQ10H2,
and NADH contents in HK-2 cells, while facilitating NAD+/NADH ratio and relative 4-
Hydroxynonal fluorescence intensity. FSP1 overexpression inhibited lipopolysaccharideinduced
lipid peroxidation in HK-2 cells via the ferroptosis suppressor protein 1-CoQ10-
NAD(P)H pathway. The ferroptosis suppressor protein 1-CoQ10-NAD(P)H pathway suppressed
lipopolysaccharide-induced ferroptosis in HK-2 cells. Ginsenoside Rg1 alleviated
ferroptosis in HK-2 cells by regulating the ferroptosis suppressor protein 1-CoQ10-
NAD(P)H pathway. Moreover, ginsenoside Rg1 regulated the ferroptosis suppressor protein
1-CoQ10-NAD(P)H pathway in vivo.

Conclusion:
Ginsenoside Rg1 alleviated sepsis-induced acute kidney injury by blocking
renal tubular epithelial cell ferroptosis via the ferroptosis suppressor protein 1-CoQ10-
NAD(P)H pathway.

Authors: Yılmaz Hakan , Güneş İrfan Botan 
Published: June 2023

Objective:
To compare main lacrimal gland values through shear-wave elastography (SWE) in patients with low Schirmer value and unspecified Sjögren's syndrome (SS) with healthy controls.

Material and Methods:
Admitted to the ophthalmology department with Schirmer value <10 mm, randomly selected 46 eyes of 46 patients evaluated for Sjögren's syndrome (SS) in the rheumatology department between December 2022 and April 2023 were classified as low Schirmer group (LSG). Randomly selected 48 eyes of 48 patients at a similar age with Schirmer value >10 mm were included as controls. Main lacrimal gland SWE measurements in LSG and control groups were recorded and compared as meter/second (m/sec).

Results:
Mean SWE values of the main lacrimal gland were measured as 2.78±0.66 m/sec and 2.26±0.29 m/sec in LSG and controls. SWE measurements were significantly higher in LSG patients than in controls (p<0.001). No significant correlation was found in the analysis between the Schirmer and the main lacrimal gland SWE values in LSG patients (p=0.702, r=0.058). No significant correlation was also detected between the Schirmer and main lacrimal gland SWE values in controls (p=0.097, r=0.242). No significant relationship was also found between age, gender, body mass index (BMI), and SWE values (p=0.351, p=0.493, p=0.328, respectively).

Conclusion:
Mean SWE value of the main lacrimal gland was determined as significantly higher in patients with aqueous lacrimal insufficiency without SS than in controls. We consider that SWE measurements may be an imaging method to support the diagnosis of aqueous lacrimal insufficiency and used in follow-ups of those with dry eye syndrome (DES) in the future.

Published: June 2023

Library research dengan pendekatan deduksi-induksi ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji kesemiprimaan mendasar aljabar tak bebas yang dibangun secara hingga atas ring komutatif unital. Tujuan secara praktis penelitian ini adalah mengaplikasikan suatu contoh aljabar semiprima mendasar yang non-komutatif pada protokol autentikasi berdasarkan masalah dekomposisi. Di samping itu, aljabar semiprima mendasar lebih umum dari aljabar semiprima, hal ini ditunjukkan dengan suatu contoh penyangkal. Hasil utama dari penelitian ini adalah suatu aljabar yang dibangun secara hingga bersifat semiprima mendasar jika dan hanya jika ideal dasar nol merupakan irisan dari semua ideal dasar prima. Lebih lanjut ideal dasar nol merupakan satu-satunya ideal dasar nilpoten. Syarat perlu dan cukup ini serupa dengan sifat aljabar semiprima, dan pembuktian sifat-sifat ini pada keduanya memerlukan konsep annihilator. The basically semiprime algebra and its application on authentication protocolAbstractThis library research is conducted with a deductive-inductive approach. The aim of this study is to explore the basically semiprimeness of the finitely generated non-free algebra over a commutative unital ring. The basically semiprime algebra is more general than a semiprime algebra, which is proven by a counterexample. In theory, Theorem 12 is the main result of the study. The finitely generated algebra over a commutative unital ring is basically semiprime, if and only if, the zero basic ideal is the intersection of all prime basic ideals, if and only if, the zero basic ideal is the only nilpotent basic ideal. These necessary and sufficient conditions are analogous to the properties of a semiprime algebra, and proving these properties in both requires a concept of annihilator. The practical aim of this research is to apply an example of non-commutative basically semiprime algebra in an authentication protocol based on the decomposition problem.
Underestimated Factors Regarding the Use of Technology in Daily Practice of Long-Term Care: Qualitative Study Among Health Care Professionals
Authors: Groeneveld Sjors W M , den Ouden Marjolein E M , van Gemert-Pijnen J E W C , Verdaasdonk Rudolph M , van Os-Medendorp Harmieke 
Published: June 2023

Background
Increasing life expectancy is resulting in a growing demand for long-term care; however, there is a shortage of qualified health care professionals (HCPs) to deliver it. If used optimally, technology can provide a solution to this challenge. HCPs play an important role in the use of technology in long-term care. However, technology influences several core aspects of the work that HCPs do, and it is therefore important to have a good understanding of their viewpoint regarding the use of technology in daily practice of long-term care.

Objective
The aim of this study was to identify the factors that HCPs consider as relevant for using technology in daily practice of long-term care.

Methods
In this qualitative study, 11 focus groups were organized with 73 HCPs. The focus group discussions were guided by an innovative game, which was specifically developed for this study. The content of the game was categorized into 4 categories: health care technology and me; health care technology, the patient, and me; health care technology, the organization, and me; and facilitating conditions. The perspectives of HCPs about working with technology were discussed based on this game. The focus groups were recorded and transcribed, followed by an inductive thematic analysis using ATLAS.ti 9x (ATLAS.ti Scientific Software Development GmbH).

Results
Overall, 2 main domain summaries were developed from the data: technology should improve the quality of care and acceptance and use of technology in care. The first factor indicates the need for tailored and personalized care and balance between human contact and technology. The second factor addresses several aspects regarding working with technology such as trusting technology, learning to work with technology, and collaboration with colleagues.

Conclusions
HCPs are motivated to use technology in daily practice of long-term care when it adds value to the quality of care and there is sufficient trust, expertise, and collaboration with colleagues. Their perspectives need to be considered as they play a crucial part in the successful use of technology, transcending their role as an actor in implementation. On the basis of the findings from this study, we recommend focusing on developing technology for situations where both efficiency and quality of care can be improved; redefining the roles of HCPs and the impact of technology hereon; involving HCPs in the design process of technology to enable them to link it to their daily practice; and creating ambassadors in care teams who are enthusiastic about working with technology and can support and train their colleagues.
Development of an Evidence-Based Conceptual Model of the Health Care Sector Under Digital Transformation: Integrative Review
Authors: Konopik Jens , Blunck Dominik 
Published: June 2023

Background
Digital transformation is currently one of the most influential developments. It is fundamentally changing consumers’ expectations and behaviors, challenging traditional firms, and disrupting numerous markets. Recent discussions in the health care sector tend to assess the influence of technological implications but neglect other factors needed for a holistic view on the digital transformation. This calls for a reevaluation of the current state of digital transformation in health care. Consequently, there is a need for a holistic view on the complex interdependencies of digital transformation in the health care sector.

Objective
This study aimed to examine the effects of digital transformation on the health care sector. This is accomplished by providing a conceptual model of the health care sector under digital transformation.

Methods
First, the most essential stakeholders in the health care sector were identified by a scoping review and grounded theory approach. Second, the effects on these stakeholders were assessed. PubMed, Web of Science, and Dimensions were searched for relevant studies. On the basis of an integrative review and grounded theory methodology, the relevant academic literature was systematized and quantitatively and qualitatively analyzed to evaluate the impact on the value creation of, and the relationships among, the stakeholders. Third, the findings were synthesized into a conceptual model of the health care sector under digital transformation.

Results
A total of 2505 records were identified from the database search; of these, 140 (5.59%) were included and analyzed. The results revealed that providers of medical treatments, patients, governing institutions, and payers are the most essential stakeholders in the health care sector. As for the individual stakeholders, patients are experiencing a technology-enabled growth of influence in the sector. Providers are becoming increasingly dependent on intermediaries for essential parts of the value creation and patient interaction. Payers are expected to try to increase their influence on intermediaries to exploit the enormous amounts of data while seeing their business models be challenged by emerging technologies. Governing institutions regulating the health care sector are increasingly facing challenges from new entrants in the sector. Intermediaries increasingly interconnect all these stakeholders, which in turn drives new ways of value creation. These collaborative efforts have led to the establishment of a virtually integrated health care ecosystem.

Conclusions
The conceptual model provides a novel and evidence-based perspective on the interrelations among actors in the health care sector, indicating that individual stakeholders need to recognize their role in the system. The model can be the basis of further evaluations of strategic actions of actors and their effects on other actors or the health care ecosystem itself.
