Suicidal behavior and associated factors among prisoners in Dilla town, Dilla, Ethiopia 2020: An institutional based cross-sectional study
Authors: Habtamu Endashaw , Desalegn Defaru 
Published: May 2022

Background
Suicide is a serious cause of mortality worldwide and is a psychiatric emergency. Among prisoners, it is the leading cause of death compared to the general population. However, suicide in prison is a neglected public health issue especially in middle- and low-income countries including Ethiopia. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the prevalence and associated factors of suicidal behavior among prisoners in Dilla Town Correctional Center, South Ethiopia.

Methods
An institution-based cross- sectional study was conducted from May13- June 13, 2020 in the Dilla Town Correctional Center. The simple random sampling technique was used to select 650 prisoners. Data were collected by face-to—to-face interview. Suicidal ideation and attempts were assessed by using the suicidality module of World Mental Health survey initiative version of the World Health Organization composite International diagnostic interview. Data were coded, entered with EP-data version 3.1, and analyzed by using Statistical Package for Social Science version 24. Multivariate binary logistic regression analysis was used to determine the significant association between explanatory variables and outcome variables at 95% CI.

The results
The prevalence of suicidal ideation and attempt among prisoners were 21.9% (95%CI, 18.4–25.2) and 13.1% (95%CI, 10.6–15.8), respectively. Female sex [(AOR) = 2.6, 95%CI, (1.39, 8.2)], divorced/widowed [AOR = 3.67, 95%CI, (2.05, 6.58)], family history of mental illness [AOR = 2.49, 95%CI, (1.41, 4.38)], common mental disorder [AOR = 1.98, 95%CI, (1.25, 3.16)] and poor social support [AOR = 2.68, 95%CI, (1.42, 5.06)] were statistically associated with suicidal ideation. Whereas, female sex [AOR = 3.24, 95%CI, (1.89, 9.4)], previous incarceration [AOR = 2.38, 95%CI, (1.2, 5.16)], and family history of mental illness [AOR = 2.08, 95%CI, (1.11, 3.9)] were associated with suicide attempt.

Conclusion
The prevalence of suicidal ideation and attempts among prisoners were high. The special attention in early screening and treatment of suicide among prisoners and collaborating with health institutions is important for better management and prevention.

Published: May 2022

Background
There is evidence from various models of hypoxic-ischemic injury (HII) that nitric oxide (NO) is protective. We hypothesized that either inhaled NO (iNO) or nitrite would alleviate brain injury in neonatal HII via modulation of mitochondrial function.

Methods
We tested the effects of iNO and nitrite on the Rice-Vannucci model of HII in 7-day-old rats. Brain mitochondria were isolated for flow cytometry, aconitase activity, electron paramagnetic resonance, and Seahorse assays.

Results
Pretreatment of pups with iNO decreased survival in the Rice-Vannucci model of HII, while iNO administered post-insult did not. MRI analysis demonstrated that pre-HII iNO at 40 ppm and post-HII iNO at 20 ppm decreased the brain lesion sizes from 6.3±1.3% to 1.0±0.4% and 1.8±0.8%, respectively. Intraperitoneal nitrite at 0.165 μg/g improved neurobehavioral performance but was harmful at higher doses and had no effect on brain infarct size. NO reacted with complex IV at the heme a3 site, decreased the oxidative stress of mitochondria challenged with anoxia and reoxygenation, and suppressed mitochondrial oxygen respiration.

Conclusions
This study suggests that iNO administered following neonatal HII may be neuroprotective, possibly via its modulation of mitochondrial function.
Cardiovascular disease protein biomarkers are associated with kidney function: The Framingham Heart Study
Authors: Keshawarz Amena , Hwang Shih-Jen , Lee Gha Young , Yu Zhi , Yao Chen , Köttgen Anna , Levy Daniel 
Published: May 2022

Background
Biomarkers common to chronic kidney disease (CKD) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) may reflect early impairments underlying both diseases.

Methods
We evaluated associations of 71 CVD-related plasma proteins measured in 2,873 Framingham Heart Study (FHS) Offspring cohort participants with cross-sectional continuous eGFR and with longitudinal change in eGFR from baseline to follow-up (ΔeGFR). We also evaluated the associations of the 71 CVD proteins with the following dichotomous secondary outcomes: prevalent CKD stage ≥3 (cross-sectional), new-onset CKD stage ≥3 (longitudinal), and rapid decline in eGFR (longitudinal). Proteins significantly associated with eGFR and ΔeGFR were subsequently validated in 3,951 FHS Third Generation cohort participants and were tested using Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis to infer putatively causal relations between plasma protein biomarkers and kidney function.

Results
In cross-sectional analysis, 37 protein biomarkers were significantly associated with eGFR at FDR<0.05 in the FHS Offspring cohort and 20 of these validated in the FHS Third Generation cohort at p<0.05/37. In longitudinal analysis, 27 protein biomarkers were significantly associated with ΔeGFR at FDR<0.05 and 12 of these were validated in the FHS Third Generation cohort at p<0.05/27. Additionally, 35 protein biomarkers were significantly associated with prevalent CKD, five were significantly associated with new-onset CKD, and 17 were significantly associated with rapid decline in eGFR. MR suggested putatively causal relations of melanoma cell adhesion molecule (MCAM; -0.011±0.003 mL/min/1.73m2, p = 5.11E-5) and epidermal growth factor-containing fibulin-like extracellular matrix protein 1 (EFEMP1; -0.006±0.002 mL/min/1.73m2, p = 0.0001) concentration with eGFR.

Discussion/conclusions
Eight protein biomarkers were consistently associated with eGFR in cross-sectional and longitudinal analysis in both cohorts and may capture early kidney impairment; others were implicated in association and causal inference analyses. A subset of CVD protein biomarkers may contribute causally to the pathogenesis of kidney impairment and should be studied as targets for CKD treatment and early prevention.
Inverted Meckel's Diverticulum Masquerading as a Subepithelial Tumor of the Ileum
Authors: Noubani Mohammad , Bhan Rohit , Ghani Nimra , Materum Pons , Glazer Emily , Georgakis Georgios , Buscaglia Jonathan M. 
Published: May 2022

ABSTRACT
We describe a case of an inverted Meckel's diverticulum presenting as an intraluminal subepithelial lesion on intraoperative enteroscopy. A 53-year-old woman presented with chronic iron deficiency anemia unresponsive to escalating iron supplementation. After equivocal upper and lower endoscopy and negative cross-sectional imaging, capsule endoscopy suggested a submucosal mass lesion in the proximal ileum. Antegrade double-balloon enteroscopy was unsuccessful in reaching the lesion. A large pedunculated, submucosal-appearing lesion was finally identified on intraoperative enteroscopy. The mass was surgically resected, and final pathology confirmed an inverted Meckel's diverticulum.
Spectral discretization of the time-dependent Navier-Stokes problem with mixed boundary conditions
Authors: Abdelwahed Mohamed , Chorfi Nejmeddine 
Published: May 2022

Abstract
In this work, we handle a time-dependent Navier-Stokes problem in dimension three with a mixed boundary conditions. The variational formulation is written considering three independent unknowns: vorticity, velocity, and pressure. We use the backward Euler scheme for time discretization and the spectral method for space discretization. We present a complete numerical analysis linked to this variational formulation, which leads us to a priori error estimate.

Published: May 2022

Abstract
Cadmium sulfide quantum dots (CdS QDs) are being developed for sensors, fluorescent probes, and other platforms and are attracting increasing attention. Given the growing demand for QDs, it is clear that there is a need to understand their potential toxicity to organisms. However, little is known regarding the genotoxicity of CdS QDs to humans. Therefore, this study used CdS QDs as the research object, cultured human peripheral blood lymphocytes, and randomly divided them into a control group, CdS I group (CdS QDs), and CdS II group (CdS QDs coated with thioglycolic acid). After cultivation, we measured the olive tail distance, tail length, tail DNA%, lymphocyte micronucleus rate, and aneuploid rate. The comet test results indicated that the indices of the QD group were significantly larger than those of the control group (P < 0.05). The results of the micronucleus and chromosome aberration tests showed that the lymphocyte micronucleus rate and chromosome aneuploid rate in the QD group were significantly increased (P < 0.05) compared with those in the control group. In conclusion, CdS QDs have certain genotoxicity to human peripheral blood lymphocytes, and the DNA damage caused by CdS QDs encapsulated with thioglycolic acid is less severe than that caused by nonencapsulated CdS QDs.

Translation semiotics and semiosic translation: clarification of disciplinary intension and concept
Authors: Niu Min , Hemchua Saengchan 
Published: May 2022

Abstract
The paper aims to clarify the distinction of intension and concept between translation semiotics and semiosic translation to determine their disciplinary classification as well as the theoretical framework of translation semiotics. Translation semiotics is a relatively young interdisciplinary field connecting specifically semiotics and translation studies. In essence, it is a branch of semiotics where the research object is the semiotic transformations and sign activities involved in the translational semiosic and interpretive process. Semiosic translation attaches itself conceptually to an extended notion of semiosis involving the transformation of any sign system into other sign systems and pertains to the illustration and analysis of translational phenomena from the perspective of semiotics. Translation semiotics focuses on semiotic transformations and constructs a semiotic theory and application model based on the dimension of semiotic transformation. Both translation semiotics and semiosic translation take semiotic transformations as their research object. Notwithstanding, semiosic translation puts particular emphasis on semiosis, whereas translation semiotics explores the phenomena of semiotic transformations and related problems involved in the process of translation grounded on semiotic theories and methodology (Jia 2016a: 96). As such, translation semiotics and semiosic translation are under the jurisdiction of different disciplines.
Virginia Woolf in China: translation, study, and influence
Authors: Yang Lixin 
Published: May 2022

Abstract
The translation and study of Virginia Woolf began in the late 1920s out of pure artistic interest, then became stagnant due to the extreme tendencies of the left-wing movement. In the new era, when the literary exchange between the East and the West resumed, the Chinese translation and study of Woolf came to flourish in literary circles with the second wave of Modernism and the rise of feminist criticism. This paper, by combining the historical development with the cultural context, conducts a full-scale inquiry into the features of the Chinese translation and study of Woolf during the period of the Republic of China (1929–1949) and the period of the new age since the reform and opening-up (1978–) and gives a detailed analysis of the spiritual connection between Woolf’s cultural view of feminism and contemporary Chinese feminist writers.
Study on the moisture-induced swelling/shrinkage and hysteresis of Catalpa bungei wood across the growth ring
Authors: Ouyang Bai , Yin Fangyu , Li Zhu , Jiang Jiali 
Published: May 2022

Abstract
The moisture adsorption/desorption and swelling/shrinkage behavior of Catalpa bungei wood samples were documented in real-time at a mesoscopic scale using dynamic vapor sorption resolution combined with a Dino X Lite Digital Microscope. The results showed that earlywood, latewood, and growth ring samples exhibited varying water vapor sorption isotherms and hysteresis degrees throughout all relative humidity (RH) levels. The radial swelling/shrinkage strains in the separated earlywood (EW) and the growth ring earlywood (GR-E) were lower than that in separated latewood (LW) and growth ring latewood (GR-L) regions. The growth ring region (GR) containing earlywood and latewood tissues , presented an intermediate strain behavior. In contrast, GR-E’s swelling/shrinkage strains resemble LW, GR-L, and GR in the tangential direction. In particular, the GR swelling/shrinkage behavior resembled that of latewood regions, and GR-L had maximum swelling/shrinkage strains. This means that latewood dominated the swelling/shrinkage of the growth ring, promoted to a certain extent by earlywood. Strain hysteresis was observed when the swelling/shrinkage strain was considered an RH function. Latewood regions (LW, GR-L) showed more pronounced swelling hysteresis than earlywood regions (EW, GR-E) in the tangential and radial directions. Furthermore, at any relative humidity the change of the size of the specimen was immediately stabilized when the moisture content reached its equilibrium.
Glycemic control among children with type 1 diabetes mellitus and its determinants in a resource-limited setting
Authors: Fantahun Bereket , Leulseged Tigist W. 
Published: May 2022

Abstract

Objectives
Glycemic control is an important parameter that can predict long-term complications of diabetes mellitus. It can be affected by many factors. Hence, identifying those factors for improving disease outcomes is essential. The purpose of this study was to assess glycemic control in children who were treated with a conventional insulin regimen and to identify its associated factors.

Methods
A retrospective cohort study was conducted among children with type one diabetes mellitus (T1DM) who had follow-up from November 2015 to November 2020 at the pediatric endocrinology clinic of St. Paul’s Hospital Millennium Medical College in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Glycemic control was assessed by measuring glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1C) and children who had HbA1C within three to six months of the data collection were recruited.

Results
A total of 106 children with TIDM who were on conventional insulin therapy were included in this study. Their median age at diagnosis was nine years, 47.2% were females, and 57.5% were from urban areas. The average HbA1c of the children was 9.7%. The majority (85.2%) of the children had poor glycemic control (>7.5%). Younger age, longer disease duration, and urban residence were found to be significant predictors of good glycemic control.

Conclusions
A significant majority of children with T1DM had poor glycemic control. This calls for the need to create access to intensive diabetes care by health authorities and stakeholders to prevent the long-term complications of T1DM.
Second-Order Recursions of First-Order Cybernetics: An “Experimental Epistemology”
Authors: Jeon Won 
Published: May 2022

Abstract
This article examines central tensions in cybernetics, defined as the study of self-organization, communication, automated feedback in organisms, and other distributed informational networks, from its wartime beginnings to its contemporary adaptations. By examining aspects of both first- and second-order cybernetics, the article introduces an epistemological standpoint that highlights the tension between its definition as a theory of recursion and a theory of control, prediction, and actionability. I begin by examining the historical outcomes of the Macy Conferences (1946–1954) to provide a context for cybernetics’ initial development for scientific epistemology, ethics, and socio-political thought. I draw extensively from Norbert Wiener, Heinz von Foerster, Ross Ashby, and Gregory Bateson, key figures of this movement. I then elaborate upon certain premises of cybernetics (Ashby’s coupling mechanism, Bateson’s notion of the myth of power) to further elucidate an intellectual history from which to begin to construct a cybernetic epistemology. I conclude by offering the second-order cybernetic concept of recursivity as a model and method for ethico-epistemological questioning that can account for both the constructive potential and the limitations of cybernetics in science and society.

Published: May 2022

Abstract

Objectives
This study aimed to verify the enzymatic ethanol analysis method and compare the technique with headspace gas chromatography (HS/GC).

Methods
The limit of the blank, limit of detection, and limit of quantification, precision, linearity, and accuracy of the enzymatic process were evaluated based on the data obtained. In addition, a method comparison was made between the enzymatic method and the HS/GC analysis method.

Results
It was seen that the enzymatic method was linear in the range of 14–450 mg/dL, the coefficient of variation and bias values ranged between 0.5–1.09% and 4.52–9.78%, respectively. The quantitative accuracy was 2.13% and 2.23% at concentrations of 41.16 and 95.82 mg/dL, respectively. When the regression analysis was performed between the results obtained using the enzymatic alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and HS/GC methods, y=0.966x + 2.084 linear relationship formula and regression coefficient of r2=0.9987, it was found that it showed a good agreement at a confidence interval of 5%.

Conclusions
The findings showed that the enzymatic method had good linearity, excellent precision, and a high correlation with the higher-order comparator method, the HS/GC method, in the ethanol analysis.

Published: May 2022

Abstract
Produzierende Unternehmen stehen aufgrund steigender Preise für elektrische Energie großen Herausforderungen gegenüber. Der durchschnittliche Strompreis für die Industrie stieg in Deutschland von 12,07 ct pro kWh im Jahr 2010 auf 21,38 ct pro kWh im Jahr 2021. Batteriespeicherlösungen bieten vielfältige Anwendungsfälle, um Industriebetriebe energiewirtschaftlich zu optimieren. Dazu gehören beispielsweise die intensive Netznutzung, oder eine Kombination aus der atypischen Netznutzung und der Primärregelleistungsvermarktung. Der vorliegende Beitrag beschreibt zunächst diese Anwendungsfälle und geht im Anschluss auf unterschiedliche Typen von Batteriespeichersystemen ein, die hierfür eingesetzt werden können. Es wird daraufhin ein exemplarisches Batteriespeichersystem bei einem Industrieunternehmen vorgestellt. Der Beitrag schließt mit der Beschreibung eines innovativen, auf künstlicher Intelligenz basierenden Ansatzes zur zuverlässigen Steuerung von Batteriespeichersystemen, um einer hohen Komplexität des Gesamtsystems zu begegnen.

Published: May 2022

Abstract
Fertigungsmanagementsysteme (MES) sind die zentrale Datendrehscheibe für Informationen aus der Fertigung. Daneben wird Künstliche Intelligenz (KI) in der Produktion zunehmend erfolgreich angewendet, vor allem durch die Entwicklungen der Industrie 4.0. Die Verbindung beider Felder wird in dieser Studie durch systematische Beschreibung möglicher Anwendungsfälle strukturiert und das Umfeld von MES-Anbietern im deutschsprachigen Raum evaluiert. Speziell für Prognoseaufgaben wird ein Umsetzungskonzept als praktikable Vereinfachung gängiger Vorgehensweisen zur Datenanalyse in Fertigungsbetrieben vorgestellt und anhand zweier pseudonymisierter Beispiele erläutert. Damit lassen sich Erkenntnisse aus dem Verbundprojekt PrognoseMES zu allgemeinen Handlungsempfehlungen abstrahieren und als potenziell richtungsweisende Weiterentwicklung von MES bündeln.

Published: May 2022

Abstract
Im Zuge des erhöhten gesellschaftlichen Bewusstseins, steigender Energiepreise sowie regulatorischer Anforderungen für ökologisches Wirtschaften wächst der Druck auf die Industrie, ihre Fabrik- und Produktionsstrukturen hinsichtlich der Nachhaltigkeit zu optimieren. Das Zielfeld der Nachhaltigkeit wird somit auch für die Fabrikplanung und den Fabrikbetrieb immer wichtiger. Hierbei gilt es, insbesondere den Bereich der nachhaltigen Fabrikgestaltung sowie die Schnittstelle zwischen Produktions- und Energieflexibilität zu betrachten. In diesem Kontext rückt auch die notwendige „digitale Transparenz“, d. h. die Aussagekraft und die Reportingfähigkeit bzgl. des Fabriksystems immer mehr in den Fokus. Dieser Beitrag stellt die Einflussmöglichkeiten der „Green Factory“ auf die Nachhaltigkeit dar.
