Authors: Liu Yuanying , Wang Yongqing , Li Rong 
Published: August 2022

Abstract Objective: To analyse the impacts of fresh embryo transfer and
frozen‒thawed embryo transfer cycles with different endometrial
preparation protocols on clinical outcomes and placental pathology.
Design: Retrospective case‒control study. Setting: Peking University
Third Hospital. Population: A total of 3920 Single live birth
cases after in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection and
embryo transfer cycles. Method: Cases were divided into the fresh embryo
transfer, natural cycle (NC)-frozen-thawed embryo transfer and hormone
replacement therapy (HRT)-FET groups, and clinical outcomes and
placental pathology characteristics were compared. Main Outcome
Measures: preterm birth, preeclampsia, postpartum haemorrhage, placenta
implantation, placenta previa, placental accreta, cervical
insufficiency, neonatal weight and placental pathology. Result:The risks
of preeclampsia, postpartum haemorrhage and preterm birth
were significantly higher in the HRT-FET group than the fresh
embryo transfer and NC-FET groups (13.42% vs 5.49% vs 5.91%, 21.7%
vs 12.1% vs 11.0%, 10.5% vs 7.7% vs 7.6%, p < 0.05).
Birth weight was lower in the fresh embryo transfer group than the
NC-FET and HRT-FET groups (p<0.05). There was no statistically
significant difference in the incidence of placental structural
abnormalities and pathological characteristics among the groups.
Conclusion: HRT-FET cycles were associated with increased maternal and
foetal complications compared to fresh embryo transfer and NC-HRT
cycles. There was no significant difference in the occurrence of
placental structural abnormalities or pathological changes among the
transfer methods. Keywords: Fresh embryo transfer; Frozen-thawed embryo

Lo sviluppo sostenibile dell'agricoltura urbana: il recupero dei nutrienti nei sistemi acquaponici
Authors: Iannuzzi Angela 
Published: August 2022

Il rapido aumento della popolazione mondiale sta mettendo a dura prova
il nostro ambiente, l’uso eccessivo ed improprio delle risorse naturali
si è moltiplicato a causa dell’aumento della domanda globale di cibo con
conseguente incremento della produzione agricola. All’avanzamento della
filiera agroalimentare sono riconducibili problematiche come:
l’aumento della domanda di acqua, maggiori emissioni globali , degrado
ambientale .Per far fronte a ciò è fondamentale garantire il diritto di
accesso al cibo a tutti , garantendo che sia sano, nutriente e
sostenibile dal punto di vista ambientale ed implementando una
produzione alimentare quanto più naturale possibile in una prospettiva
dell’ economia circolare. Negli ultimi anni stiamo assistendo alla
diffusione dell’Agricoltura urbana ; l’acquaponica è una forma di essa
e rappresenta l’integrazione simbiotica del sistema di acquacoltura e la
coltivazione idroponica in un unico sistema produttivo a riciclo
continuo. Il presente lavoro sarà incentrato sullo studio di due
sistemi acquaponici: uno convenzionale e uno integrato con trattamenti
innovativi ( MBR, disinfezione con UV e ozono) con particolare focus
sul recupero di nutrienti e sulla valutazione dell’efficacia di
trattamenti specifici volti a migliorare la qualità e la produttività di
essi.
Trattamento avanzato di effluenti gassosi odorigeni con impiego di un sistema integrato MBBR-APBR (Moving Bed Bioreactor- Algal Photo- Bioreator): efficienze di rimozione e potenzialità di recupero
Authors: Natella Francesco 
Published: August 2022

Le emissioni di gas climalteranti (GHG) e di inquinanti atmosferici
prodotte dalle attività antropiche sono considerate tra le principali
cause dei continui cambiamenti climatici.
l sistema è stato alimentato con un flusso gassoso composto da aria
compressa e toluene, come fonte di nutrienti è stato impiegato un
influente sintetico per riprodurre le acque reflue casearie (Dairy
Wastewater, DWW).
Le efficienze del sistema sono state valutate in termini di percentuali
di rimozione del toluene, di efficienza di conversione della
CO in biomassa valorizzabile e di riduzione delle
concentrazioni di nutrienti. Il sistema ha mostrato efficienze di
rimozione fino al 99.97% per il toluene, l’efficienza di conversione
della CO ha raggiunto valori pari ad oltre il 98%, con
concentrazioni di biomassa nel reattore fino a circa 3 g/l.
Analisi comparativa delle performance ambientali dei materiali da costruzione mediante Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)
Authors: Naddeo Manuele 
Published: August 2022

La ricerca di soluzioni ambientalmente sostenibili nel settore edile ha
portato la comunità scientifica a studiare la possibilità di riciclo
degli elementi in calcestruzzo giunti al fine vita, allo scopo di
recuperare gli aggregati che lo compongono. Tale opportunità consente un
minore utilizzo di risorse naturali, e riduce la quantità di rifiuti da
costruzione e demolizione da smaltire in discarica. La prestazione
ambientale del calcestruzzo può essere misurata con uno strumento
standardizzato a livello Internazionale, il Life Cycle Assessment (LCA).
L’attività sperimentale si focalizza sulla realizzazione di un modello
utile all’applicazione del LCA a miscele di calcestruzzo, al fine di
realizzare un’analisi comparativa tra le prestazioni ambientali di
calcestruzzi convenzionali, e calcestruzzi realizzati con una quota
parte di aggregati riciclati derivanti da processi di demolizione. La
misura degli indicatori di impatto ambientale definiti dallo Standard
ISO 14042 consente di quantificare l’incremento di sostenibilità
ottenibile dal recupero degli aggregati, e permette di individuare i
processi che incidono maggiormente sulla sostenibilità del prodotto
finale.
Desalinizzazione dell’acqua salmastra mediante un prototipo di deionizzazione capacitiva assemblato in laboratorio: valutazione delle prestazioni e dell’efficienza energetica
Authors: Monica Ciro Della 
Published: August 2022

L’acqua è una risorsa preziosa e limitata che deve essere protetta e
gestita in maniera sostenibile. L’aumento della popolazione, il
miglioramento degli standard di vita e l’espansione dell’agricoltura
irrigua hanno causato un notevole aumento della domanda globale di
acqua. In alcune zone del mondo dove scarseggia la risorsa idrica è
indispensabile andare a purificare le acque salmastre o marine per
colmare il deficit idrico. Motivo per cui è costantemente attiva la
ricerca di nuove tecnologie più prestazionali e maggiormente sostenibili
per la desalinizzazione dell’acqua salata presente sulla terra. Negli
ultimi anni sta ricevendo un significativo interesse scientifico una
nuova tecnologia basata su dispositivi elettrochimici (batterie e super
condensatori): la deionizzazione capacitiva (CDI). In laboratorio è
stato assemblato un prototipo di pila CDI a 9 celle costituito da
elettrodi in feltri di grafite e ne sono state analizzate le
prestazioni e l’efficienza energetica.
Trattamenti avanzati per la rimozione dei metalli pesanti dalle acque reflue
Authors: Cairone Stefano 
Published: August 2022

Il riutilizzo delle acque reflue opportunamente trattate è stato
identificato come una delle soluzioni per sopperire alla carenza di
risorse idriche. Al riutilizzo sono associati anche ulteriori vantaggi,
tra i quali la riduzione dello scarico delle acque reflue depurate
nell’ambiente con conseguente riduzione della contaminazione
dell’ambiente stesso. Tuttavia, le acque destinate al riutilizzo devono
presentare elevata qualità in termini di concentrazioni di contaminanti
al di sotto di valori limite. Crescente preoccupazione si ha nei
confronti della presenza di metalli pesanti a causa dalla loro
potenziale capacità di causare effetti tossici già a basse
concentrazioni, rappresentando una minaccia sia alla salute dell’uomo
sia alla qualità degli ecosistemi. Tra le tecnologie applicabili per la
rimozione dei metalli pesanti, la combinazione di processi
elettrochimici e adsorbimento (sistema ibrido EC-AD) e diversi processi
a membrana, tra cui le tecniche MEUF e PEUF e l’impiego di membrane
nanocomposite adsorbenti, hanno fornito risultati interessanti.

Published: August 2022

OBJECTIVE
Fatty liver disease (FLD) is prevalent in diabetes, and both disproportionately affect vulnerable populations. The FIB-4 index is recommended to screen for advanced liver fibrosis. Limited data have suggested that diabetes may impact FIB-4.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS
We evaluated FIB-4 accuracy for advanced fibrosis compared with liver biopsy in the presence of diabetes and obesity.

RESULTS
Among 363 FLD patients receiving care in San Francisco’s safety net health care system from August 2009 to February 2020, characteristics were as follows: median age 51 years, 46% male, 59% Hispanic, 68% obese, 33% with diabetes, and 31% with advanced fibrosis on histology. Overall, the c-statistic for FIB-4 was 0.79, but was worse in patients with diabetes, 0.68, than without, 0.85 (P = 0.003). Accuracy also varied by weight, at 0.65, 0.85, and 0.75 for normal weight, overweight, and obese, respectively, although not significantly (P = 0.24).

CONCLUSIONS
The findings highlight limitations of FIB-4 in screening for advanced liver fibrosis, particularly in individuals with diabetes.

Рассматривается тематика программ повышения квалификации руководителей образовательных учреждений России, Великобритании, Австралии, Швеции, Нидерландов и других стран в контексте требований, поставленных профессиональными стандартами. Выявлено, что функциональный состав этих требований в разных странах во многом совпадает, однако отечественные институты развития образования пока не предлагают полного спектра тематики программ повышения квалификации руководителей, направленных на формирование полного функционала руководителя, отраженного в профессиональных стандартах.
The article discusses the topic of advanced training programs for heads of educational institutions in Russia, Great Britain, Australia, Sweden, the Netherlands and other countries in the context of requirements set by professional standards. It has been revealed that the functional composition of these requirements in different countries largely coincides, but Russian institutions do not yet offer a full range of topics of programs for the professional development of managers, aimed at the formation of a full functional manager, reflected in professional standards. In comparison with many foreign countries in the Russian Federation higher requirements to the education of the head of the school, which in our country should have higher education in the pedagogical and administrative sphere, and requires at least five years’ experience in teaching and/or management positions in educational institutions. The analysis of requirements to the director of the school from the point of view of the work functions of the professional standard of the school leader was conducted. Especially the «not covered» from the point of view of the topic of the proposed training programs are the areas related to functions, skills, knowledge in the field of designing the development of the organization, identification of factors and risks of development, motivation of the team, defining the tasks and prospects of personal and professional development of the manager and some others.

Для эффективного применения информационных технологий в технике необходимо знание физики, которая является теоретической основой технических наук. Ввиду объективной сложности физики и падения интереса к ее изучению необходимо искать новые подходы к преподаванию данной дисциплины. Применение систем компьютерной математики снимает ряд математических трудностей и расширяется круг изучаемых вопросов. Приведены примеры решения физических задач с помощью математического пакета MathCAD. С помощью специальных программ можно превратить компьютер в измерительный комплекс, на базе которого создан оригинальный физический практикум. Студенты, используя этот комплекс, могут экспериментально изучить физические явления в электронных схемах в домашних условиях во время пандемии. Биографии выдающихся ученых могут стимулировать интерес к физике ввиду психологических особенностей молодежной аудитории. Астрономия дает много поводов для применения физических законов и вследствие большого интереса к проблемам строения и эволюции Вселенной может быть мостиком к физике. Представленный материал был апробирован на лекционных и семинарских занятиях в Высшем колледже информатики Новосибирского государственного университета.
For the effective application of information technology in engineering, knowledge of physics is necessary, which is the theoretical basis of technical sciences. Due to the objective complexity of physics and the recent decline in interest in its study, it is necessary to look for new approaches to its teaching. The use of computer mathematics systems removes a number of mathematical difficulties and expands the range of issues studied. Examples of solving physical problems using the MathCAD mathematical package are given. With the help of special programs, you can turn a computer into a measuring complex, on the basis of which an original physical workshop was created. Students using this complex can experimentally study physical phenomena in electronic circuits at home during a pandemic. Biographies of outstanding scientists can stimulate interest in physics due to the psychological characteristics of the youth audience. Astronomy gives many reasons for the application of physical laws, and, due to the great interest in the problems of the structure and evolution of the Universe, it can be a bridge to physics. The presented material was tested at lectures and seminars at the Higher College of Computer Science of Novosibirsk State University. Motivated students positively assessed the innovations and actively assimilate new knowledge.

Authors: Nsiah Francis , Fiafor Seth K. , Bhattacharjee Subir 
Published: August 2022

We investigate the aggregation of Violanthrone-78 (VO-78), a model asphaltene compound, in mixtures of toluene and n-heptane (heptol) using spectroscopic and dynamic and static light scattering techniques. The light scattering experiments were conducted using pure toluene and n-heptane, as well as 25/75, 50/50, and 75/25 heptol solvents. Furthermore, the concentration of VO-78 varied from 10-8 M to 10-3 M in these suspensions. The dynamic light scattering experiments were used to study the aggregate sizes from the intensity autocorrelation function at different n-heptane volume fractions. The results show the onset of aggregation of about 50 % n-heptane volume fractions. The aggregate sizes in toluene, within the range of concentrations examined, were below the instrument's detection limit (< 5 nm) but increased with increasing dosages of n-heptane. On the other hand, the aggregate size in pure heptane was observed to be greater than the maximum limit of the instrument (> 10 μm). Furthermore, the static light scattering experiments provided an anomalous behavior. Increasing concentrations of VO-78 in the solvent resulted in lowering the parameter Kc/Rq, where c is the molar concentration.

This study aims to describe job stress caused by multiple roles and the relationship between work-family conflict and work-family balance in working Balinese mothers. The independent variable in this study is work-family conflict, while the dependent variable in this study is work-family balance. This study has one hypothesis, this hypothesis is that work-family conflict has a negative and significant relationship to work-family balance. This type of research is mixed methods research, which combines qualitative research methods and quantitative research. This study uses a convenience sampling technique. The subjects of this are women who are Hindu, live in Bali, and carry out the roles of mother, wife, work, and krama adat, totaling 388 people. The scale used in this study is a scale that has been adapted from Carlson et al. (2000) for work-family conflict variables with a reliability of 0.87 for time-based WIF, 0.79 for time-based FIW, 0.85 for strain-based WIF, 0.87 for strain-based FIW, 0.78 for behavior-based WIF, and 0.85 at behavior-based FIW. In addition, the scale used for the work-family balance variable was adapted from Bintang and Astiti (2016) with a reliability of 0.911. The scale is filled by the subject in a self-report. The analysis technique used for qualitative data is thematic analysis techniques with MAXQDA 2018 tools. The result of qualitative research is that work-family conflict is one of the causes of work stress in working Balinese mothers. In quantitative data, non-parametric correlation analysis techniques are used with SPSS for windows version 22. The results of the analysis that have been carried out show that there is a negative and significant relationship between work-family conflict and work-family balance. This means, the higher the level of work-family conflict in an individual, the lower the level of work-family balance in that individual. The results of quantitative research can also be used to see the level of work stress in working Balinese mothers, namely Balinese mothers working in this study have a low level of work stress.
