Authors: Cambruzzi Eduardo , Ferreira Nelson Pires , Ferreira Marcelo Paglioli , Gago Guilherme , Bertinatti João Pedro Pattussi 
Published: September 2022

AbstractAnaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) is a rare, high-grade, T-cell neoplasm classified into cutaneous primary, systemic primary ALK-positive (ALK+), systemic primary ALK-negative, or breast-implant associated. Secondary involvement of the central nervous system (CNS) by systemic primary ALK+ ALCL is a rare occurrence. We present a case of CNS involvement by ALK+ ALCL eleven years after diagnosis of the primary tumor in the thoracic vertebra. The anatomopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of ALK+ ALCL. A brief review of the treatment and the clinical and pathological aspects is presented.
A Pilot Study for Understanding the Association between Susceptibility, Miasm and Posology in Homeopathic Management of Essential Hypertension
Authors: Patel Neha 
Published: September 2022

Abstract
Background There are many randomised controlled studies/observational studies done so far to study the role of homeopathy in the management of essential hypertension. However, the focus of this study is to understand the association between susceptibility, miasm and posology that play a key role in homeopathic management of essential hypertension.
Materials and Methods A retrospective assessment of cases was conducted on 50 cases. Tools like conceptual image, planning and programming and the standard parameters evolved were used to identify susceptibility, miasm and posology in the cases and the association between the three was tested by using chi-squared test.
Result In cases where the dominant miasm was tubercular (60%), susceptibility was high; potencies used were 1M (40%) and 10M (20%) (p = 0.01662, p < 0.05) and the repetition was infrequent (p = 0.00087, p < 0.05).In cases where the dominant miasm was sycotic (40%), susceptibility was high in 16% of the cases and low in 24% of the cases; potencies used were 200 (24%) and 1M (16%) (p = 0.01662, p < 0.05) and the repetitions were frequent in 24% of the cases and infrequent in 16% of the cases (p = 0.00087, p < 0.05).
Conclusion In cases where susceptibility was high, the dominant miasm was tubercular, potencies used were 1 and 10M and the repetition of dose was infrequent; whereas in cases where susceptibility was low, in majority of those cases the dominant miasm was sycotic, potency used was 200 and the repetition of dose was frequent.

AbstractBackground SCUBE 1-has been used as a biomarker for the diagnoses of myocardial infarction, stroke, mesenteric ischemia, and gastric cancer in some recent studies. In this study, we investigated the relationship between serum SCUBE−1 levels and return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) in patients who received cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).Methods Patients over 18 years of age who were not pregnant and received CPR were divided into two groups: those who achieved ROSC and those who died. There were 25 patients in each group. SCUBE−1 and other routine biochemical parameters were studied in blood samples taken at the time of admission.Results There was no significant difference between the age and gender distribution of the patients between the two groups. The SCUBE−1 value of the ROSC group was significantly higher than that of the non-survivor group (p ˂ 0.05). At a cut-off value of 9 ng/mL, SCUBE−1 had a sensitivity of 100%, a positive predictive value of 65.8%, specificity of 48%, and a negative predictive value of 100% in predicting ROSC.Conclusions The SCUBE−1 values were found to be significantly higher in the ROSC group compared with the non-survivor group.
The Applicability of Thromboelastography in Acute Ischemic Stroke: A Literature Review
Authors: Pîrlog Bianca O. , Grotta James C. 
Published: September 2022

AbstractAcute ischemic stroke (AIS) due to cerebral artery occlusion is often treated by thrombolytics or antithrombotic drugs. Thromboelastography (TEG) is a noninvasive test that provides a dynamic overview of the coagulation process. TEG may help guide thrombolytic and antithrombotic therapy in AIS. This article aims to highlight the potential use of TEG in AIS patients by reviewing available studies. We conducted a literature review, including PubMed and Cochrane library databases. The following keywords were used to find relevant studies: thromboelastography, TEG, acute ischemic stroke, stroke, coagulopathy, antiplatelet, and anticoagulant treatment. We identified 142 papers and after abstract review, we included 24 studies in this report. TEG identified a hypercoagulable state in AIS patients represented by short R, K, and greater α angle in all papers included. Modification of TEG parameters induced by intravenous thrombolysis was inconsistent but prolonged lysis (increased LY30) and weaker clots (lower maximum amplitude) were most frequent. TEG detected hypo-coagulopathy induced by dual antiplatelet therapy as well as antiplatelet drug resistance, with ticagrelor and aspirin having greater inhibition of platelet activity. A prolonged R-value seems to be the most reliable TEG parameter in detecting the anticoagulant effect of factor Xa inhibitor treatment. TEG might represent a useful point-of-care test for emergency decision-making in AIS patients and a tool for individualized treatment options. This hypothesis needs validation in a large cohort of prospectively studied AIS patients.

Indentation size effect in steels with different carbon contents and microstructures
Authors: Sarangi Soumya Sourav , Lavakumar Avala , Singh Prince Kumar , Katiyar Prvan Kumar , Ray Ranjit Kumar 
Published: September 2022

Indentation Size Effect (ISE) in steels having a wide spectrum of carbon (C) concentrations (wt-%) 0.002 (interstitial-free), 0.07 (microalloyed), 0.19 (low carbon), 0.32 (medium carbon), and 0.7 (high carbon), and microstructures were investigated using Vickers micro-hardness tester. A decrease in micro-hardness with increasing load, i.e. ISE, is observed in all the samples except microalloyed steel. The empirical relations, such as the Nix and Gao model, Minimum Resistance model, and Proportional Specimen Resistance (PSR) model, were used to determine the load-independent or true hardness values. Nix and Gao model was adopted to determine the plastically deformed zone (PDZ) size under the indenter and subsequently correlated with ISE in the materials. It is observed that ISE is absent when the PDZ size becomes comparable to or larger than the grain size of the material.
Crony capitalist deals and investment in South Africa’s platinum belt: a case study of Anglo American Platinum’s scramble for mining rights, 1995–2019
Authors: Nxele Musa 
Published: September 2022

ABSTRACT
This article analyses how crony capitalism emerges as a solution to maintaining investment in platinum mining. Using a case study of platinum, the analytic narrative exploits the quasi-experimental design provided by the nationalisation of mineral rights to evaluate the relationship between mining investment and crony capitalism. Does the policy have the effects intended? This article argues that the answer is no because of the cronyism between mining capital and politically connected black elites. The institutionalisation of cronyism, coupled with low economic growth and shrinking market-based black economic empowerment opportunities, bolstered and legitimised capture of the state. The system of cronyism produced limited investment and limited black productive capital. Poor mining communities and mine workers have suffered from this cronyism, but have recently organised their power to control the operating environment, or the ‘social licence’ to operate.
High-sensitivity temperature sensor based on Mach–Zehnder interferometer filled with dimethyl silicone oil

Published: September 2022

Abstract
In this paper, a high-sensitivity temperature sensor based on the Mach–Zehnder interferometer (MZI) is designed and verified by experiments. The MZI is a splicing structure of ‘single mode fiber–multimode fiber–quartz capillary–multimode fiber–single mode fiber’. A microchannel was fabricated on the walls of the capillary by femtosecond laser pulses, and dimethyl silicone oil (DSO) was injected into the capillary by the immersion method. When filled with DSO, the microchannel is sealed with epoxy adhesive to form a MZI temperature sensor. When the ambient temperature changes, the DSO in the capillary of the MZI has a very high thermo-optical effect, resulting in a change in the optical path difference in the MZI and a large wavelength shift in the transmission spectrum of the MZI. Therefore, high temperature sensitivity can be obtained by demodulating the wavelength shift of the MZI transmission spectrum. The experimental results show that the temperature sensitivity of the MZI filled with DSO is 7.421 nm °C−1 in the range of 30 °C–50 °C, which is 297 times that of the MZI without DSO (0.025 nm °C−1). In addition, the sensor has a compact structure, robustness, good repeatability and stability.
Electrical devices designed based on inorganic clusters

Published: September 2022

Abstract
The idea of exploring the bottom brink of material science has been carried out for more than two decades. Clusters science is the frontmost study of all nanoscale structures. Being an example of 0-dimensional quantum dot, nanocluster serves as the bridge between atomic and conventionally understood solid-state physics. The forming mechanism of clusters is found to be the mutual effects of electronic and geometric configuration. It is found that electronic shell structure influences the properties and geometric structure of the cluster until its size becomes larger, where electronic effects submerge in geometric structure. The discrete electronic structures depend on the size and conformation of clusters, which can be controlled artificially for potential device applications. Especially, small clusters with a size of 1–2 nm, whose electronic states are possibly discrete enough to overcome thermal fluctuations, are expected to build a single-electron transistor with room temperature operation. However, exciting as the progress may be seen, cluster science still falls within the territory of merely the extension of atomic and molecular science. Its production rate limits the scientific and potential application research of nanoclusters. It is suggested in this review that the mass-produce ability without losing the atomic precision selectivity would be the milestone for nanoclusters to advance to material science.

Published: September 2022

Abstract
The rapid development of the internet of things is accompanied by a large number of equipment deployment. When the equipment fails or reaches its service life, tons of e-waste will be generated. Therefore, there is an urgent need to find environmentally friendly and effective ways to recycle and treat e-waste. In this paper, a method of classification detection and resource utilization of waste electronic components based on the triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) is proposed, which provides a novel idea for electronic waste treatment. We studied the output voltage characteristics of different kinds of TENG based on waste electronic components subject to different environmental loadings. The output characteristics of TENG are explored, reflecting the e-waste categories and processing environment. TENG is also connected with hundreds of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) through rectifier bridge circuit, and the output performance of TENG is characterized by the number and intensity of LEDs.
Absolute parametric decay instabilities of X2 microwave beams in reduced models and fully kinetic codes
Authors: Senstius M G , Gusakov E Z , Yu Popov A , Nielsen S K 
Published: September 2022

Abstract
Nonlinear wave interactions known as parametric decay instabilities (PDIs) have been known to occur in fusion plasmas for many years. In the past, they have generally been considered of little importance in the context of high power microwave beams aimed for X2 heating due to high thresholds. Experimental evidence suggests that non-monotonic density structures, such as islands and ELMs, can lead to low thresholds absolute PDIs. The consequences include degraded electron cyclotron resonance heating performance, absorption into unintended modes and the production of strong scattering, which may damage microwave sensitive equipment. We present a reduced analytical 1D model for absolute PDI of an X-mode microwave beam into a cascade of electrostatic eigenmodes of a non-monotonic density structure. The model is solved numerically and compared with fully kinetic particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations which are computationally much more expensive. The primary decay, which initiates cascade, shows good agreement with the PIC simulations in terms of daughter frequencies, growth rates and saturation, in particular in a weakly nonlinear pump intensity regime. The secondary daughter waves of the reduced model, while visible, do not appear to be the dominant processes in the PIC simulations.
Collective diffusion in a two-dimensional liquid composed of Janus particles
Authors: Huang Tao , Zeng Chunhua , Chen Yong 
Published: September 2022

Abstract
The collective diffusion of anisotropic particles in liquids plays a crucial role in many processes, such as self-assembly. The patchy particle, which is usually nearly spherical in shape, is an important anisotropic particle with different properties from other anisotropic particles like the ellipsoid liquid crystal particles. In the present study, molecular dynamics simulations are performed to study the collective diffusion of a two-dimensional anisotropic liquid system composed of Janus particles. The static structures and diffusion behaviours of anisotropic and isotropic Lennard-Jones liquids are compared. The long-time diffusion behaviour of an anisotropic liquid of nearly spherical Janus particles is found to be similar to that of an isotropic liquid because the orientation of the particles disappears over long-term averaging. The anisotropic properties of the Janus particles are mainly reflected in the spatial correlation of particle orientations and mid-time diffusion behaviour. The difference between nearly spherical anisotropic particles and rod-like particles is also discussed in this paper.
Quantum diagnosis of cancer with heralded single photons

Published: September 2022

Abstract
The unique properties of single quantum photons have more potential for many applications in quantum metrology. Here, by using state-of-the-art techniques, the precision of the attenuation measurement of light by propagating in the tissue is enhanced and a method to diagnose cancer in the tissue is proposed. The measurement of light with precision beyond the shot-noise limit and near the ultimate quantum limit can be attained using the heralded single photons (HSPs) generated by the spontaneous parametric down-conversion process. The interaction of HSP with normal and malignant breast tissues announces the presence of its partner. Theoretically and experimentally, a quantum approach to diagnosing cancer by comparing the measured attenuation coefficient of the normal and malignant tissues is demonstrated using the HSPs. We experimentally show that it is possible to improve the attenuation uncertainty due to the scattering of HSPs from the bio-sample to distinguish the malignant tissue from the normal tissue. Here, we use a narrow-band filter to remove the Raman scattering effect and consequently increase the attenuation uncertainty. This method is one of the applications of quantum metrology for precision enhancement which can be used in the histology of unstained tissues and tumor margin detection.

Authors: Zhu Jialiang , Wang Guixin , Jia Sensen , Gao Wenxiang 
Published: September 2022

Abstract
As one of the critical components of the main engine, the crankshaft must not be damaged during the whole operating life. Hence, fatigue characteristic analysis and life assessment plays an important role in crankshaft development. This paper analyses the fatigue strength of a marine diesel engine crankshaft and the influence of different fillet structures on the safety factor. First of all, in order to get the stress results and the stress load history of crankshaft fillet, this paper uses the finite element method to analyze the whole model and sub-model. Then, the occurrence time and position of the maximum stress in the running process is located by using the programming script. And the load spectrum is obtained by using the rain flow counting method. Finally, through the calculation, the state of maximum stress and fatigue strength are obtained. The minimum safety factor of the crankshaft fillet is 2.209, which is larger than the specified value. Therefore, the diesel engine has high reliability during operation. In order to solve the problem of stress concentration and machining at the fillet, the crankshaft fillets with different structures are also analyzed in this paper. Through the comparative analysis of the proposed scheme, the most suitable crankshaft fillet structure is two-way sinking groove fillet. So the application of this type of fillet should be considered in the design stage of diesel engine crankshaft.

Published: September 2022

Abstract
Aiming at the launching process of the supersonic barrel-type spinning target projectile, and improving the control accuracy of the open-loop controlled target projectile, making the subsidence angle compensation can improve the accuracy of the launching process, and make the actual flight trajectory closer to the preset theoretical simulation trajectory. Studies have shown that the subsidence angle of the initial launch has a great impact on the actual flight trajectory. To achieve the same control effect, it must be adjusted to the corresponding control strategy. In this article, we provided the subsidence angle analysis method, which can truly reflect the change of the subsidence angle, and realize the precise control of the trajectory through effective compensation.

Research on flow field characteristics of nozzle plume for a solid rocket motor
Authors: Jin Helong , Tao Ruyi , Wang Hao 
Published: September 2022

Abstract
In order to explore the flow field characteristics of nozzle plume for a small solid rocket motor (SRM), the two-dimensional axisymmetric N-S governing equations with component transports and chemical reaction terms are established. Then, the finite volume method of AUSM (Advection Upstream Splitting Method) spatial discretization scheme is applied for numerical discretization, and its solution is solved by time iteration to make the plume flow field steady. This technique is applied to research the flow field characteristics and characteristic parameter distributions of nozzle plume under different inflow conditions. The results are shown that: when considering the reburning reactions of nozzle plume, the temperature of the gas jet core area is much higher than the flow field temperature that the reburning phenomenon is not considered. In addition, the reburning phenomenon mainly occurs in the air-gas mixing and gas development areas, but in the initial core area of gas jet, this phenomenon is not obvious. What’s more, with the increase of altitude, the influence area of the gas jet gradually becomes larger. However, as the incoming flow Mach number increases, the intensity of the change of gas temperature along the nozzle axis weakens, and also the number of wave nodes and the influence region of gas jet gradually decrease.
