Evaluation of Interstitium by Lymphatic Uptake Method in Chronic Bilateral
Lower Extremity Edema
Authors: Ceylan Sule , Yilmaz Necati 
Published: April 2023

Objective:
Symmetrical bilateral lower extremity edema (BLEE) needs to be treated effectively. Finding the cause of this condition increases the success of
treatment. Fluid increase in the interstitial space (FIIS) is always present as a cause or a result. Subcutaneously administered nanocolloid is
transported by uptake by lymphatic pre-collectors, and this uptake takes place in the interstitium. We aimed to evaluate the interstitium with
labeled nanocolloid and contribute to the differential diagnosis in cases with BLEE.

Methods:
Our retrospective study included 74 female patients who underwent lymphoscintigraphy for bilateral lower extremity edema. Technetium 99m
(Tc-99m) albumin colloid (nanocolloid), a marked colloidal suspension, was applied subcutaneously to two different areas on the dorsum of both
feet with a 26 gauge needle The dose volume administered intradermally is approximately 0.2-0.3 ml, and each injector has 22-25MBq of activity.
Siemens E-Cam dual-headed SPECT gamma camera was used for imaging. Dynamic and scanning images were taken with a high-resolution
parallel hole collimator. Ankle images were re-evaluated by two nuclear medicine specialists, independent of physical examination and
scintigraphy findings.

Results:
74 female patients with bilateral lower extremity edema were divided into two groups based on physical examination and lymphoscintigraphy
findings. There were 40 and 34 patients in Groups I and II, respectively. In the physical examination, patients in Group I were evaluated as
lymphedema, and patients in Group II were evaluated as lipedema. The main lymphatic channel (MLC) was not observed in any of the patients in
Group I in the early images, and the MLC was observed at a low level in the late imaging in 12 patients. The sensitivity of the presence of distal
collateral flows (DCF) in the presence of significant MLC in early imaging in demonstrating increased fluid in the interstitial space (FIIS) was
calculated as 80%, specificity as 80%, PPV 80%, and NPV 84%.

Conclusion:
While MLC is present in early images, concomitant DCF occurs in cases of lipoedema. The transport of increased lymph fluid production in this
group of patients can be covered by the existing MLC. Although MLC is evident, the presence of significant DCF supports the presence of
lipedema. It can be used as an important parameter in the diagnosis in early cases where physical examination findings are not evident.
Green Tea Catechins as Potential Drug Scaffolding Molecules in
Structural Studies with Diverse Protein Targets
Authors: Leal Hortensia Gomes , Ge Jinbo , Yoo Dongjun , Arya Michelle , Taft Carlton Anthony , Topaz Gemma Rose , Stieglitz Kimberly 
Published: April 2023

Abstract:
Previous studies provide substantial evidence that catechins, polyphenol bioactive
compounds, exhibit medicinal benefits. These polyphenols are found in abundance in
green teas, including a combination of the four major types of catechins: (-)-Epicatechin
(EC), (-)-Epicatechin-3-gallate (ECG), (-)- Epigallocatechin (EGC), and (-)-
Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG). Although all four exhibit medicinal benefits, the catechin
cited in the literature the most is EGCG, so derivatives of this catechin were selected
for these studies. Literature searches identified catechins as biologically active compounds
for a diverse set of diseases ranging from cancer, metabolism, neurological, and neuromuscular
ailments. A diverse set of potential protein targets for docking with catechin derivatives
was first identified as a list (n = 48). The targets were then selected based on the presence
of 3D protein coordinates for these targets provided by the Rutgers Consortium for
Structural Biology (RCSB) Protein Data Bank (PDB) (n = 10). The surfaces of the 3D protein
targets were evaluated with computational methods to identify potential binding sites
for the EGCG catechin derivatives. Static and flexible docking was done using target protein
binding sites performed with the catechin derivatives followed by molecular dynamics
(MD). MD protocols were run to confirm binding in the physiological range and environment.
In summary, the results of computational protocols confirmed predicted binding by
docking with MD of several catechin derivatives to be used as scaffolds once validated in
lab-based assays. Possible changes to these scaffolding molecules that could result in tighter,
more specific binding is discussed.

Authors: Appasaheb Borgalli Rohan , Surve Sunil 
Published: April 2023

Background:Facial emotion recognition (FER) is a vital research area in machine vision and artificial intelligence due to its application in academics and industry. Although FER can primarily be conducted using multiple sensors, research shows that using facial images/videos to recognize facial expressions is a better way to convey emotions because visual expressions carry essential information.Objective:This paper focuses on implementing learning frameworks that combine machine learning and deep learning for detecting 50 classes of compound emotions using the iCV Multi- Emotion Facial Expression Dataset (iCV-MEFED).Methods:In the proposed methodology, we used a deep learning Inception v3 CNN-based model to extract features for each image, and a Multi-Class Support Vector Machine (mSVM) classifier was used to detect the corresponding 50 classes of basic and compound emotions.Results:The proposed learning framework for the iCV-MEFED dataset has an accuracy of 26%, outperforming the state-of-the-art results.Conclusion:Moreover, the results got are compared with competition results in terms of misclassification results, which shows our methodology gives the best result of 74.00%.
Exploring the Behavior of Users With Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder on Twitter: Comparative Analysis of Tweet Content and User Interactions
Authors: Chen Liuliu , Jeong Jiwon , Simpkins Bridgette , Ferrara Emilio 
Published: April 2023

Background
With the widespread use of social media, people share their real-time thoughts and feelings via interactions on these platforms, including those revolving around mental health problems. This can provide a new opportunity for researchers to collect health-related data to study and analyze mental disorders. However, as one of the most common mental disorders, there are few studies regarding the manifestations of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) on social media.

Objective
This study aims to examine and identify the different behavioral patterns and interactions of users with ADHD on Twitter through the text content and metadata of their posted tweets.

Methods
First, we built 2 data sets: an ADHD user data set containing 3135 users who explicitly reported having ADHD on Twitter and a control data set made up of 3223 randomly selected Twitter users without ADHD. All historical tweets of users in both data sets were collected. We applied mixed methods in this study. We performed Top2Vec topic modeling to extract topics frequently mentioned by users with ADHD and those without ADHD and used thematic analysis to further compare the differences in contents that were discussed by the 2 groups under these topics. We used a distillBERT sentiment analysis model to calculate the sentiment scores for the emotion categories and compared the sentiment intensity and frequency. Finally, we extracted users’ posting time, tweet categories, and the number of followers and followings from the metadata of tweets and compared the statistical distribution of these features between ADHD and non-ADHD groups.

Results
In contrast to the control group of the non-ADHD data set, users with ADHD tweeted about the inability to concentrate and manage time, sleep disturbance, and drug abuse. Users with ADHD felt confusion and annoyance more frequently, while they felt less excitement, caring, and curiosity (all P<.001). Users with ADHD were more sensitive to emotions and felt more intense feelings of nervousness, sadness, confusion, anger, and amusement (all P<.001). As for the posting characteristics, compared with controls, users with ADHD were more active in posting tweets (P=.04), especially at night between midnight and 6 AM (P<.001); posting more tweets with original content (P<.001); and following fewer people on Twitter (P<.001).

Conclusions
This study revealed how users with ADHD behave and interact differently on Twitter compared with those without ADHD. On the basis of these differences, researchers, psychiatrists, and clinicians can use Twitter as a potentially powerful platform to monitor and study people with ADHD, provide additional health care support to them, improve the diagnostic criteria of ADHD, and design complementary tools for automatic ADHD detection.

Authors: Milašinović Marko , Radojević Aleksandra , Jovković Biljana 
Published: April 2023

Abstract
This paper examines the influence of the size and participation of women in the board of directors on the dividend policy of banks in Western Balkans. The research covered 104 banks, observing their dividend policy from 2017 to 2019. The dividend payout ratio was measured by the dividend policy. A relatively small number of banks paid dividends during the observation period. By applying the Fixed-Effect model, it was determined that the size of the board of directors has a statistically significant positive impact on the dividend policy of observed banks. Concerning the participation of women on the board of directors, a statistically significant impact on the dividend policy of banks was not identified. In addition to contributing to the existing literature on corporate finances, the research results can be crucial to investors when deciding to invest funds in bank stocks.
The Impact of COVID-19 on Bank Efficiency in the Western Balkans: A DEA Approach
Authors: Čiković Katerina Fotova , Cvetkoska Violeta , Keček Damira 
Published: April 2023

Abstract
This paper aims to assess and compare the relative efficiency of commercial banks in six Western Balkan developing countries (North Macedonia, Serbia, Montenegro, Bosnia and Herzegovina (B&H), Kosovo1, and Albania), using the leading nonparametric methodology Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) for the period 2016-2020, and investigating the impact of the COVID-19 pandemics on the performance of banking systems in these countries. The output-oriented DEA model has been implemented with interest expenses and non-interest expenses as inputs and interest revenue and non-interest revenue as outputs. Our findings show that the average efficiency of the six Western Balkan banking systems differs, and Kosovo’s banking system has noted the highest average efficiency in the whole observed period (2016–2020). In contrast, the banking system in Bosnia and Herzegovina noted the lowest average efficiency. The COVID-19 pandemic decreased the relative efficiency of the banking sectors in all six of the Western Balkan countries observed, except Kosovo. However, additional research that includes all pandemic years is recommended to assess the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the banking systems in the Western Balkans. This study provides invaluable insights for academic members, banking management and regulatory bodies, governments, and the interested public. It is the first empirical study that includes a glimpse of the first impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on banking systems in the developing countries of the Western Balkans.

Published: April 2023

BACKGROUND: Pressure injuries are associated with skin temperature changes, but little is known about skin temperature characteristics of the Kennedy Lesion (KL). PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to describe early skin temperature changes in KLs using long-wave infrared thermography. METHODS: KLs were identified from chart review in 10 ICU patients. Skin assessments were performed within 24 hours of new skin discoloration. Temperature measurements were performed using a long-wave infrared thermography imaging system. Relative Temperature Differential (RTD) between the discolored area and a selected control point was calculated. RTDs of > +1.2 °C and < -1.2 °C were considered abnormal. Demographic data and observable characteristics of the KL were collected when available. Descriptive statistics (Mean +/- SD; %) were used. RESULTS: The major finding of this study was that there were no early skin temperature differences between the KLs and surrounding skin. CONCLUSION: The early stage of the KL may be limited to microvascular injury which results in a normal skin temperature. More studies are needed to verify this finding and to ascertain whether KL skin temperature changes over time. The study also supports the bedside use of thermography in skin temperature assessment.

Authors: Kuye-Kuku TO , Ajayi G , Adegbola O 
Published: April 2023

Background: Pre-eclampsia is a significant cause of maternal and foetal morbidity and mortality. This study identified the relationship between serum and red cell concentrations of magnesium and calcium in pre-eclampsia. This is to justify the use of magnesium in the prevention of pre-eclampsia and eclampsia.
Objective: To compare the serum and red cell levels of calcium and magnesium among pre-eclamptic and normotensive pregnant women.
Method: A prospective, comparative study comparing serum and red cell concentrations of magnesium and calcium in sixty pre-eclamptic patients and sixty normotensive pregnant controls.
Result: The mean serum calcium concentration among pre-eclamptic patients was 2.33±0.19 mmol/l, compared with 2.47±0.23 mmol/l in the normotensive group (p = 0.244). The mean serum magnesium concentration was significantly higher among normotensive pregnant women than pre-eclamptic women (1.18±0.31 mmol/l vs 0.91±0.23 mmol/l; p = 0.001). The mean red blood cell calcium concentration was also significantly higher among pre-eclamptic pregnant women compared to the normotensive group (4.34±0.62 mmol/l vs 3.95±0.79 mmol/l; p = 0.003), but the mean red cell magnesium concentration was lower in pre-eclamptic than the normotensive control group but without statistical significance (2.04±0.65 mmol/l vs 2.26±0.79 mmol/l; p = 0.098).
Conclusion: Pre-eclampsia is associated with low concentrations of serum magnesium and calcium. Therefore, magnesium supplements may be beneficial in preventing pre-eclampsia.
