Vermiconversion of Textile Industrial Sludge: Waste Management and Nutrients Recycling
Authors: Dhadse Sharda 
Published: October 2022

The present study aimed for the conversion of textile industrial sludge (TIS) amended with the cow dung into vermicompost operated by the epigenic earthworm Eudrilus eugeniae. To accomplish the intent of the experiment, the substrate was allowed to decompose for 30 days, under monitored environmental conditions. Three different combinations were prepared (V25%, V50%, and V75%) from TIS, and compared with Vagro (vermicompost prepared from agricultural waste) and Vsoil. Among the entire three treatments, V75% was shown by physicochemical parameters for Trigonella foenum (Fenugreek/Methi) plant growth, seed germination, and leave production in the tested pot. The maximum amount of available nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium (NPK) was recorded at V75%. On the other side, toxic metal (Cr, Mn, Cu, Pb Cd, and Zn) concentrations were diluted to minimum levels. The result advised that vermicomposting consider one of the alternative methods for waste management and energy recovery from industrial waste.

Authors: Silvia Gheorghe Gabriela , Cristian Dan Gheorghe Andrei , Ciobanu Ana , Simona Hodorogea Andreea 
Published: October 2022

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is defined as an increase in mean pulmonary arterial pressure of ≥25 mmHg at rest by right heart catheterization. Echocardiography estimates systolic pulmonary arterial pressure on the tricuspid regurgitation jet velocity, mean and diastolic pressure based on the pulmonary regurgitation jet, and data regarding the function of the right ventricle. ESC guidelines propose an echocardiographic risk assessment in PH according to right atrial area > 26 cm2 and pericardial effusion. Other risk factors correlated with the severity of the PH include right atrial pressure > 15 mmHg, tricuspid regurgitation more than moderate, TAPSE <18 mm, tricuspid S′ < 11.5 cm/s assessed by TDI, right ventricle ejection fraction <45% using 3D imaging, fractional area change of the right ventricle <35%, dP/dt < 400 mmHg/s on the tricuspid regurgitation flow, reduced strain of the right ventricle, diastolic dysfunction. Left ventricular eccentricity index (EI) >1.7 combined with TAPSE <15 mm was associated with a higher death rate compared to patients with normal values. However, each of these parameters used in the assessment of the right ventricle has technical limitations, and it is necessary to use multiple tests for a correct evaluation of the prognosis of PH.

The Psychosocial Impact of Parental Multiple Sclerosis on Children and Adolescents: A Systematic Review
Authors: Haker Michel , Peper Julia , Haagen Miriam , Heesen Christoph , Rahn Anne Christin 
Published: October 2022

ABSTRACTBACKGROUNDMultiple sclerosis (MS) is a common debilitating neurologic disease that affects mostly young women. This review provides an overview of research on the psychosocial impact of parental MS on children to inform clinicians and support people with MS considering parenthood.METHODSA systematic review of the literature was performed by searching the MEDLINE, PsycINFO, and PSYNDEX databases. We included quantitative and mixed-method studies assessing psychosocial outcomes of children with a parent with MS. Studies were screened for eligibility and evaluated for risk of bias.RESULTSWe screened 608 references, assessed 72 studies in full-text, and included 28 studies in this review. Most of the studies reported on psychosocial adjustment processes, with most results suggesting negative consequences, including difficulties with mood, behavior, or social interaction. Several studies also described associations between children with a parent with MS and increased incidences of psychiatric disorders. Nevertheless, some studies claimed that children with a parent with MS were not more likely to have psychosocial problems compared with children without a parent with MS. A few studies indicated probable positive effects of parental MS, eg potentially increased social competence. Other investigated outcomes were children’s coping skills, early childhood development, body image, and effects on education, and these were unaffected or only slightly affected by having a parent with MS.CONCLUSIONSHaving a parent with MS has a relevant effect on children. However, the heterogeneous nature and varying quality of the included studies limit the interpretability of these findings. Further research is needed to provide robust evidence.

Published: October 2022

Background: The pituitary gland is a small bean-shaped gland situated at the base of the brain. Pituitary-based tumors are neuroendocrine tumours affecting the pituitary gland. Imaging of the pituitary gland involves the use of computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. 3D reconstruction of data from CT images can be converted into 3D and then made into a live anatomical model using a 3D printer.
The objective and aim of this study are to demonstrate that findings from CT scan images can be used to generate 3D printed specific models for patients and clinicians.
Methods: Patient-specific models for three clinical cases were segmented using a segmentation application to isolate the mass and the bone. The process involved image acquisition from a cross-sectional imaging to segmentation of the acquired DICOM image into a 3D model followed by file and model correction for final print, this is then followed on to slicing with the selection of 3D printing material as well as appropriate settings, this is then concluded with the actual print, print accuracy, and cost analysis.
Results: Segmentation of the region of interest took about 45 to 90 minutes with the majority of the time spent on segmentation of the pituitary. Printing of models was done into sections as the skull and mass were printed separately. The times required spanned from 20-40 minutes and 4-9 hours for the mass and skull base respectively. Print accuracy was less than 1.7mm with the total cost of printing a model was less than $50.
Conclusion: This study showed steps in 3D printing anatomical models from a computed tomogram of patients with brain lesions.

Authors: Tekpe Emmanuel , Ansah Samuel Kwame , Akomah Benjamin Boahene 
Published: October 2022

Appropriate technology and design for housing delivery undoubtedly has abundant cost benefit and other advantages. However, the acceptance of its usage and application for sustainable and affordable housing delivery is rare. Appropriate technology supports and enhances good life without compromising the earth’s ecosystem and the prospects of later generations. It is energy efficient, environmentally sound, and it is been controlled by the local community with local available materials. Appropriate housing design on other hand, focuses on the engineering and architectural perspective of a structure that supports sustainable construction and development. The paper aimed at determining the extent to which appropriate technologies and designs are currently employed in addressing housing sustainability and affordability in Ghana. Questionnaire survey was used for the data collection. The study was conducted in Accra, Takoradi and Cape Coast of Ghana within the period of 5 Months. In total, 110 questionnaires were distributed among Building and Construction Professionals and Self- Built House Owners. Out of the number distributed, 56 were retrieved for analysis. Data was analyzed using descriptive statistics. The findings of the study established that, hydrafoam, adobe bricks technology, timber homes technology, and wattle and daub technology were considered the most used and acceptable appropriate technologies for sustainable and affordable housing delivering. The findings of the study also revealed that, the extent to which appropriate technologies and designs have been adopted in major cities in Ghana is low. This implies that less emphasis is placed on the use of appropriate technology and design in resolving sustainable and affordable housing issues in major cities. It is therefore, suggested that, government and stakeholders mainstream the use of appropriate designs and technologies for sustainable and affordable delivery. Consequently, stakeholders should help change the perception of Ghanaians towards the adoption of appropriate technologies and designs for sustainable and affordable housing delivery.
Quantum‐Confined Dodecahedron CsPbBr3 Quantum Dots by A Sequential Post‐Treatment Strategy for Efficient Blue PeLEDs
Authors: Yuan Longfei , Li Dewang , Liu Hongli , Zhang Fei , Wang Shirong 
Published: October 2022

AbstractCsPbBr3 quantum dots (QDs) prepared through traditional hot‐injection and room temperature reprecipitation methods are usually hexahedral (nanoplate/cube) and green‐emitting. These methods severely obstruct the development of blue perovskite‐based light‐emitting diodes (PeLEDs) because the resultant QDs always suffer unachievable morphology regulation. Here, highly efficient blue‐emitting rhombic dodecahedron CsPbBr3 QDs (CsPbBr3 <12> QDs) are obtained by regulating morphological transformation for the first time through a novel and facile sequential post‐treatment strategy. Hydrobromide (‐NH3+) with stronger adsorption energy promotes the morphology transform of QDs from nanoplate to cube by substituting oleylamine in the first step. Then, polar solvent vapor eliminates PbX64− and led to the (112) crystal plane of the cube QDs being exposed, which is effectively stabilized by ‐NH3+ to realize morphology transition from cube to the dodecahedron. Highly efficient 12‐faceted dodecahedrons are endowed with significantly enhanced photoluminescence quantum yield of 89.8% at 476 nm as well as uniform size distribution and mono‐dispersity. The target blue PeLEDs achieve the maximum external quantum efficiency of 6.6% (480 nm) and excellent spectrum stability. This study provides a new strategy to prepare blue‐emitting CsPbBr3 <12> QDs by delicate control toward the growth and polyhedron process of crystal.

Published: October 2022

AbstractMultispectral photodetectors are promising devices capable of detecting photons in a broad range of multiple wavelengths, which have gained considerable potential in biomedical imaging, surveillance, and other emerging artificial intelligence applications. Different light signals acquired with these photodetectors are useful in effective object recognition and navigations due to the extraction of redundant light information. However, these capabilities are obstructed by the circuitry complexity and unwanted electrical cross‐talk arising from the combination of multiple absorbers and structures. Herein, a confined assembly method by the synergy of solvent engineering for controlling organic ITIC 1D arrays in different crystallinity is proposed. Organic array‐based photodetectors present a multispectral optoelectronic performance with the maximum responsivities of 26.0, 17.6, 174.9, and 60.0 mA W−1, corresponding to different wavelength lights. Based on the large‐area fabrication of ITIC array‐based photodetectors, multispectral image sensors with high accuracy are obtained for capturing the different light signals of capital letters “T,” “I,” “P,” and “C.” Furthermore, the integration of the devices into functional optoelectronic circuits have been demonstrated as signal intermediary for optical and electrical data disposal, which open up new opportunities for the integration of organic semiconductors toward the multispectral functional optoelectronic modules.

Published: October 2022

AbstractIn this study, a flexible strain sensor consisting of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and ethylene‐vinyl acetate (EVA)‐based hot‐melt adhesive web (HAW) is proposed with the advantages of low cost and easy fabrication. Six different weight fractions of the CNTs were employed in producing the three‐layer sandwich‐structure composite membrane. The morphology and internal particle structure of the cross section of the EVA/CNTs composite membranes was studied using scanning electron microscopy. The mechanical properties as well as the mechanical–electrical behavior of the EVA/CNTs sensors were investigated, showing a gauge factor up to 477. In addition, two mathematical equations to establish the relationship between the output electrical signal and the input strain signal during the monotonic and cyclic measurements were proposed, respectively. Overall, this study provides a solvent‐free one‐step approach for the preparation of flexible strain sensors with innovative and broad application prospects, and offers some insight into the mathematical prediction of the strain sensing behavior.

ObjectiveThere is a paucity of population‐based studies investigating the epidemiology of lupus nephritis (LN) in the US and long‐term secular trends of the disease and its outcomes. We aimed to examine the epidemiology of LN in a well‐defined 8‐county region in the US.MethodsPatients with incident LN between 1976 and 2018 in Olmsted County, Minnesota (1976–2009) and an 8‐county region in southeast Minnesota (2010–2018) were identified. Age‐ and sex‐specific incidence rates and point prevalence over 4 decades, adjusted to the projected 2000 US population, were determined. Standardized mortality ratios (SMRs), survival rates, and time to end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) were estimated.ResultsThere were 72 patients with incident LN between 1976 and 2018, of whom 76% were female and 69% were non‐Hispanic White. Mean ± SD age at diagnosis was 38.4 ± 16.24 years. Average annual LN incidence per 100,000 population between 1976 and 2018 was 1.0 (95% CI 0.8–1.3) and was highest in patients ages 30–39 years. Between the 1976–1989 and 2000–2018 time periods, overall incidence of LN increased from 0.7 to 1.3 per 100,000, but this was not statistically significant. Estimated LN prevalence increased from 16.8 per 100,000 in 1985 to 21.2 per 100,000 in 2015. Patients with LN had an SMR of 6.33 (95% CI 3.81–9.89), with no improvement in the mortality gap in the last 4 decades. At 10 years, survival was 70%, and 13% of LN patients had ESRD.ConclusionThe incidence and prevalence of LN in this area increased in the last 4 decades. LN patients have poor outcomes, with high rates of ESRD and mortality rates 6 times that of the general population.

AbstractWe report the different properties of two types of red fluorescent proteins (RFP), undescribed species, extracted from two octocorals, Scleronephthya sp. 1 (S. sp. 1) and S. sp, 2 (Alcyonacea, Nephtheidae). S. sp. 1, named Alc‐Orange, emits strong green emission at 492 nm and weak red emission at 590 and 630 nm when excited at 449 and 574 nm, respectively. S. sp. 2, LS‐Red, emits strong deep red at 642 nm and weak green at 480 and 510 nm when excited at 574 nm and 434 nm, respectively. LS‐Red has a very large Stokes shift of about 208 nm emitting at 642 nm when excited at 434 nm. Interestingly, LS‐Red shows some emissions at 480 (blue emission), 514 (green emission), 563 (orange emission), and 642 nm (deep red emission) continuously at pH 7.5, which means multicolored fluorescence protein by one excitation at 434 nm. In pH dependence of fluorescence of Alc‐Orange (pH 13 to 3.5), no relation between ‘green and red FPs’ was observed, whereas LS‐Red showed the interconversion between ‘green and red forms’ depending on pH (11.5 to 4.5).
