Authors: Torres Iván , Gonzalez Luis Vicente , López Juan Pablo , Gómez-Delgado Andrés 
Published: October 2022

Abstract
Purpose
This study aims to suggest a new, simple and safe approach to reduce isolated unstable fractures of the zygomatic arch, allowing rigid fixation with direct vision.
Patients and Methods
Data of patients treated for facial trauma between January 2009 and January 2019 at the Craniomaxillofacial Service, Hospital La Orinoquia, Casanare Colombia, were included. As inclusion criteria, zygomatic arch fractures were considered, either isolated or involving other facial bones. Patients who presented facial nerve injury before the surgery were excluded. The minimum follow-up was six months, and the maximum one year.
Results
Data of 210 patients were retrieved. Of which 82.3% were men and 17.6% were women. The left side was the most affected (65.1%). The most frequent causes were motor vehicle accidents (52.8%), followed by physical aggression (29.5%). The most frequent postoperative complication was the paresis of the temporal branch of the facial nerve, which was observed in 10.4% of the cases; however, it was reversible in all cases, with an average recovery of 12.5 days.
Conclusion
This is a simple and safe approach, which offers a wider visibility of the operative field, and allows the reduction and rigid fixation of the fractures in a precise way.

Abstract
The dicentric chromosome assay is the “gold standard” in biodosimetry for estimating radiation exposure. However, large-scale deployment is limited due to its time-consuming nature and requirement for expert reviewers. Therefore, a recently developed automated system was evaluated for dicentric chromosome assay. A previously constructed deep learning-based automatic dose-estimation system (DLADES) was used to construct dose curves and calculate estimated doses. Blood samples from two donors were exposed to cobalt-60 gamma rays (0–4 Gy, at 0.8 Gy/min). DLADES efficiently identified monocentric and dicentric chromosomes but showed impaired recognition of complete cells with 46 chromosomes. We estimated the chromosome number of each “Accepted” sample in DLADES and sorted similar-quality images by removing outliers using the 1.5IQR method. We confirmed that 11 of the 12 data points followed the Poisson distribution. Blind samples were prepared for each dose to verify the accuracy of the estimated dose generated by the curve. The estimated dose was calculated using Merkle’s method. The actual dose for each sample was within the 95% confidence limits of the estimated dose. Sorting similar-quality images using chromosome numbers is crucial for automated dicentric chromosome assay. We successfully constructed a dose-response curve and determined the estimated dose using DLADES.

Abstract
Finding schemes for capturing hot carrier is crucial for designing photovoltaic device that more efficiently converts light into electricity. Currently, utilizing fullerene to enhance the cold electron capture from halide perovskite is remarkably prevalent, however, to date, capturing hot carrier in this system remains unlocked. Here, we demonstrate tuning their electronic coupling drives highly efficient hot carrier capture in inorganic perovskite nanocrystal and fullerene hybrid by transient absorption spectroscopy. The formation of state coupled complexes creates new hot carrier transport channels in their binding sites and reverses the originally forbidden hot carrier capture. Moreover, appropriately controlling phonon bottleneck and Auger heat effects in perovskite nanocrystal is demonstrated to enable more efficient hot carrier capture. Finally, we realizes ~ 84% of maximum hot carrier capture efficiency. The findings advance the modulation of hot carrier dynamics in doner-acceptor heterostructures and are essential for the development of practical hot carrier photovoltaics.

Authors: M Balaji , N Padmaja 
Published: October 2022

Abstract
This work presents a way to increase the throughput and energy efficiency of finite impulse response (FIR) filters through the efficient application of retiming and two-level pipelining. It is a challenge to increase the filter's throughput and energy efficiency while reducing latency and hardware complexity. The operations of addition and multiplication are divided using two-level pipelining. The break addition procedure is retimed. The architecture of m-tap filter (4-tap, 8-tap, 16-tap, 32-tap, and 64-tap) with n-bit input word length (4-bit, 8-bit, 16-bit, and 32-bit) Pipelined Retiming delay generation Filters (PRF), were designed. The proposed distributed arithmetic-based FIR Filter with pipelining has produced the least delay of 2.564ns for 4-tap with 8-bit input, and the maximum delay of 56.040ns for 64-tap with 32-bit word length. The proposed distributed arithmetic-based FIR Filter with retiming method has produced the least delay of 0.687ns for 4-tap with 8-bit input, and the maximum delay of 4.535ns for 64-tap with 32-bit word length. When compared with the pipelining method, the delay has been decreased by 73.20% for 4-tap with 8-bit input and 91.90% for 64-tap with 32-bit word length.

Published: October 2022

Abstract
Purpose
At this stage, liver cancer has a poor prognosis and short survival, and there is no clear treatment for this purpose. Therefore, we explored potential future clinical molecular therapeutic targets and biomarkers for survival prognosis prediction that are important for the diagnosis and improved prognosis of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.
METHODS
We used multiple databases to analyse genes differentially expressed in hepatocellular carcinoma tissue and normal liver tissue, and also analysed the relationship between genes and clinical features, prognosis and immune infiltration.
RESULTS
TMEM147 expression levels were significantly higher in hepatocellular carcinoma tissues than in normal liver tissues, and TMEM147 expression levels were strongly associated with pathological stage, body weight, BMI, pathological grade, adjacent liver tissue inflammation, AFP, and vascular infiltration. Survival analysis showed that high TMEM147 expression had a poor survival rate. Also, NK CD56 + cells, TFH cells, Th2 cells, B cells, CD8+, CD4+, macrophages, and dendritic cells were significantly increased and cytotoxic cells, DC cells, neutrophils, Tcm cells, Th17 cells, and TReg cells were significantly decreased in hepatocellular carcinoma patients in the TMEM147 high expression group.
Conclusion
TMEM147 may be a potential molecular therapeutic target and a biomarker for survival prognosis prediction in the future clinical setting of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.

Published: October 2022

Abstract
Solar energy is one of the oldest renewable sources in the world. It is freely available and could be easily harnessed to reduce reliance on hydrocarbon-based energies. Data on solar radiation play a very important role in the design, sizing and performance of energy systems and renewable energies. However, these data are not always available, especially in isolated areas. As a result, predicting solar radiation values is often the only practical way to acquire this data. In fact, the measured sequences of radiation values are only available for few localities or regions of each country. Fuzzy logic is classified among the techniques of artificial intelligence, it is characterized by its simulation of human reasoning,
fuzzy logic has contributed in the development of several fields, In estimation, fuzzy logic is used to solve complex problems of the prediction .In this work, six solar radiation fuzzy models have been implemented to estimate daily global solar radiation on a horizontal surface based on two parameters : ration between duration sunshine (S) and daylight hours (S0) and the astronomical season (winter, spring, summer and autumn). Batna city is selected for this study. Its meteorological data sets of ten years (1996–2005) have been collected from the database HelioClim1 (HC1). The obtained results show that the new fuzzy models are adept to predicting the daily global solar radiation with a good measuring accuracy (the model 6 provided the best results MBE = 0.472, RMSE =1.750 and MAE = 1.395) in this city

Abstract
Background & Aims: Data on the dynamic changes in chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) during antiviral therapy are scarce. To investigate the evolution of concurrent NAFLD in CHB patients treated with nucleos(t)ide analogues (NAs) and its influence on antiviral efficacy.
Methods: We enrolled 164 HBeAg-positive CHB patients from a randomized controlled trial who were treated with NAs for 104 weeks and underwent paired liver biopsies. Histological evaluation was performed at baseline and week 104. The patients were divided into four groups according to NAFLD status changes.
Results: From baseline to week 104, the overall percentage of CHB patients with concurrent NAFLD increased from 17.1% to 26.2% (P = 0.044). Among them, seven of 28 patients (25.0%) with NAFLD at baseline showed NAFLD remission at week 104, while 22 of 136 patients (16.2%) without NAFLD at baseline developed new-onset NAFLD. In subgroup analyses, the new-onset and sustained NAFLD groups showed significantly lower rates of biochemical response (BR) at week 104 as compared to the sustained non-NAFLD group (77.3% and 55% vs. 93.9%, respectively; all P < 0.05), as well as fibrosis improvement (31.8% and 45.0% vs. 69.3%, respectively; all P < 0.05). NAFLD status changes did not influence the virological response, HBeAg seroconversion, and necroinflammation improvement (all P > 0.05).
Conclusions: In HBeAg-positive CHB patients receiving NAs therapy, new-onset and sustained NAFLD may counteract the benefits of antiviral therapy, reducing the rate of BR and fibrosis improvement.
Filed Study on the Severity of Photovoltaic Potential Induced Degradation
Authors: Badran Ghadeer , Dhimish Mahmoud 
Published: October 2022

Abstract
Photovoltaic systems can be affected by different types of defects, faults, and mismatching conditions. In the last couple of years, the PV industry caught upon a severe problem in PV systems, so-called potential induced degradation (PID). The PID appears over time (months or even years); it may be undetectable at an early installation stage of the PV system. However, over time, it becomes apparent as it might lead to a significant drop in the output power. This paper conducts a field study of PV modules affected by PID over two successive years. With the support of thermal and electroluminescent imaging, the PID was discovered. Furthermore, it was found that the PID emerged in the PV modules after being in the field of different timing 4 to 8 months and led to a drop in the output power in the range of 27–39%. An anti-PID box was fitted during the second year of the PV operation to recover the PID. Accordingly, it has stabilized the power degradation, but it could not restore the performance of the affected PID as compared with healthy/non-PID modules.

Authors: Mohebby Behbood , Hajialian Marzyeh 
Published: October 2022

AbstractAny effects of polyacrylate on sodium silicate stabilization, improvement of fire resistance as well as physical and mechanical properties of fir wood (Abiessp.) was investigated in the current research work. Impregnation of the wood samples was done using a vacuum-pressure method. The samples were prepared according to the related standards methods and then they were impregnated with sodium silicate (concentration of 60%; S60) and polyacrylate (concentration of 50%; Pa50) as sole and mixed ones with different ratios (S60:Pa50 ratios as 2:1 and 1:2) under a vacuum of 0.5 bar for 30 minutes and a pressure of 6 bar for 3 hours. After impregnation, weight gain percentage (WPG), leaching, water absorption, volumetric swelling, anti-swelling efficiency (ASE), FTIR spectroscopy, impact load strength as well as fire resistance were determined in the treated samples. The results revealed that using polyacrylate reduced sodium silicate leaching from wood. While, sodium silicate treated wood samples showed sever leaching problem (> 16%). The least the leaching occurred in polyacrylate treated samples (almost 2%). Any presence of the polyacrylate in mixed treatments reduced the leaching; up to 10% for S60-Pa50- (2:1) and 8% for S60-Pa50- (1:2). Similarly, swelling was reduced in the samples due to addition of polyacrylate. However, ASE was reversely increased up to 39.80% and 30.10% in S60-Pa50- (1:2) and S60-Pa50- (2:1) after soaking in water for 144 hours. Any combination of the sodium silicate and polyacrylate provided proper fire resistance of the samples versus the polyacrylate treated samples. Those samples treated with sodium silicate the best protection against fire. However, the high the leaching of the sodium silicate was sever limiting problem. The impact load resistance was increased in the samples treated with a mixed sodium silicate and polyacrylate due to presence of the sodium silicate.

Abstract
Restorative proctocolectomy with ileal-pouch anal anastomosis (IPAA) has become standard surgical treatment of choice in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) and familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) in which the medical management fails. Despite the wide use of laparoscopic method, the enhanced and innovative features that come with the robotic platform such as endo-wrist technology, 3D visualization, surgeon-controlled camera and motion scaling makes it an appealing choice. This study aims to investigate then feasibility and safety of robotic approach for proctectomy or proctocolectomy with IPAA as compared to conventional laparoscopic approach. A systematic review was done to for the studies done between 2010 and 2022 comparing the robotic approach with the laparoscopic approach and 9 studies were finally found to be feasible to be included in this review. In terms of the outcomes, although the mean operating time was slightly higher than the laparoscopic approach, the other outcomes such as mean blood loss, return of the bowel movement, mean hospital stay, and conversion to open were found to be significantly lower. Despite the overall increased rate of complications combined from all the studies, the rate of significant complications such as anastomotic leaks requiring readmission and return to theater was also found to be substantially less. This study concludes that although robotic approach is in its initial stages for pelvic surgeries, it can be safely employed due to improved dexterity and visibility.

Published: October 2022

Abstract
Purpose
A common surgical methods for the treatment of coronary heart disease is coronary artery bypass grafting ( CABG ). The most important concern is the graft patency. When restenosis or occlusion occurs on the graft, the blood supply to the downstream will be reduced, and serious myocardial ischemia will occur again. Hemodynamics are the key factors affecting the graft patency. If the hemodynamic results of the graft under different surgical methods can be known before coronary artery bypass grafting, it can help doctors to choose the optimal operation method.
Methods
In this study, the modeling and simulation method of multi-scaled model of coronary had been designed. The 3D model of the bypass surgery region is constructed by the 3D reconstruction of the patient's medical imaging and the virtual bypass surgery. The individuation lumped parameter model is constructed by the basic physiological information of the patients. Finally, the two models are connected by a special boundary surface coupling algorithm to construct a 0D-3D coupled multi-scaled model that can be used to calculate the hemodynamic environment. Through calculation, the flow waveform, wall shear stress(WSS), oscillating shear index(OSI) and other hemodynamic parameters in the graft under different bypass methods were compared, and the optimal operation method with the best hemodynamic environment was selected.
Results
The method was used to calculate two clinical cases, and the effectiveness of the method was proved by the comparison of calculated graft flow and real graft flow, and the comparison of hemodynamic environment and graft outcomes after one year.
Conclusion
This method can realize preoperative evaluation of the hemodynamic environment of the graft under different bypass methods, and then select the optimal operation method for the patients and improve the graft patency after operation.

Abstract
Industry-scale microfluidizer system (ISMS) is a novel equipment for producing filtered-free whole beverages. This study investigated the color, nutrition and flavor changes of whole mango juice (WMJ) treated by ISMS under various pressure (0-120 MPa). Results showed that ISMS well maintained the total soluble solid content, pH value, and yellow color of WMJ. The carotenoids were not destroyed with treatment pressure below 90 MPa, and the carotenoids bioaccessibility of all the WMJ samples was no change. More importantly, ISMS promoted the release of ascorbic acid and total polyphenols by disrupting cellular integrity, thus improving antioxidant activities of WMJ. Volatile compounds analysis found that WMJ samples had more terpenes and aldehydes when treated at 90 MPa, and possessed more esters at 120 MPa. These results demonstrated that ISMS might offer new opportunities to produce WMJ with excellent qualities at an industrial level.
Identification of faunal indicators of climate in a Himalayan transect to assess climate change
Authors: Ma  
Published: October 2022

AbstractThe consequences of climate change on species and ecosystems are evident, and the landscape of Nepal does not remain unaffected. As the Himalayan region is climate sensitive, even a tiny fluctuation in climate can markedly affect numerous species and their habitats. Moreover, the Himalayan region is inhabited by some of the most threatened and endangered biodiversity on Earth, including habitat specialists and endemic species, which may accelerate the extinction of some species. Hence, species affected by climate change should be monitored and identified as faunal indicators of climate change. We compared studies conducted by the National Trust for Nature Conservation (NTNC) and World Wildlife Fund for Nature (WWF‒Hariyo Ban Program). First, we identified the common and overlapping species. Second, we identified the critical species for climate monitoring based on habitat range, elevation, role as habitat specialist/generalist, and impact observed in previous studies. We examined the relationships of mammals and birds with their habitat. Species with a long-life span, specialist habitat type, and short home range are exposed to climate change for extended periods, making them more vulnerable. In particular, our results demonstrate that the one-horned rhinoceros, snow leopard, and pika, being habitat specialists, experience a high impact owing to climate change and can be used as indicators of climate change. Similarly, migratory birds, such as the large-billed leaf warbler and blue-capped rock thrush, and residential birds (e.g., pheasant) can signal climate change because of their home range being at higher elevations. Despite these analyses, specific species-based study regarding the impact of climate change is still lacking. Therefore, every species must be assessed for climate change sensitivity to facilitate global wildlife protection.
