Mastery of English vocabulary trough pop up method
Authors: Aba La , Pontoh Meylan 
Published: October 2022

Mastering of vocabulary is part of mastering a language, especially English, because if someone mastered the language, it means that person mastering of vocabulary. In other words, the more vocabulary students have the easier for students to compose words and communicate well. Such as learning English they say that the main reason was found difficulties to understand the lesson and the solution to all of these problems was the teachers should make learning media as attractive as possible the can, so that they can attract students to make small notes for the vocabulary they get from media learning. Besides, the teacher can motivate students to be more active in adding new vocabulary trough pop up method. In this research using a qualitative method in which the process of research was observed the students vocabulary. In the results of this study was the weakness of vocabulary mastering in high school. Teachers also was implemented several methods in order to help students in the process of mastering words. Not only the Teacher, but also the researcher suggests several methods to be used so that students can easily understand English quickly.
Transdisciplinary Art-Science Identities and the Artification of Learning
Authors: Grushka Kathryn 
Published: October 2022

Transdisciplinary art-science learning is linked to semiosis and the performative nature of learning. At the core of contemporary learning is sensemaking through images. We learn through how we perceive, remember, and imagine the world. An ethics-approved inquiry looked at the artmaking practices of gifted secondary school students between the ages of 15 and 17 years (n = 108) with a focus on their art-science performative learning. The study applies Deleuzoguattarian thinking and other post-structural perspectives on contemporary representational practices for learning and communication in art-science spaces. One of the research key findings is that artified visual pedagogies can both transverse and/or facilitate meaning-making across art-science spaces and brings forth the creation of science-linked identities. Educators must now engage with the idea that visual reasoning as performative action is now the connecting pedagogy in all epistemic fields.

Published: October 2022

Background: Debridement of toenails is a common procedure that leads to the production of nail dust aerosols in the work environment. Previous studies indicate that inhaled nail dust can cause respiratory distress and eye irritation. This comprehensive review aimed to assess the available literature on the effect of nail dust exposure and to evaluate nail dust as a potential occupational hazard for podiatric physicians.
Methods: A comprehensive literature search was conducted via PubMed, Google Scholar, CINAHL, Cochrane Library, and ClinicalTrials.gov. Risks of bias of the collected studies were evaluated using various assessment tools to match the type of study design. A qualitative analysis of the included studies was performed, from which primary and secondary outcome measures were extracted: prevalence of symptoms and specific microorganisms in nail dust.
Results: Of 403 articles screened, eight met the inclusion criteria. The primary outcome measure resulted in a pooled prevalence of eye-related symptoms being the most consistent symptom reported (41%–48%). The secondary outcome measure resulted in a pooled prevalence of Trichophyton rubrum (9.52%–38%) and Aspergillus (11.11%–35.48%) as the most common microorganisms present in nail dust.
Conclusions: From the included eight articles, we found that nail dust is a potential occupational hazard, especially for those exposed more often. Aspergillus and T rubrum are most commonly associated with nail dust leading to development of respiratory illness. It is important to take preventive measures in podiatric medical clinics by using improved and efficient personal protective equipment for workers exposed to nail dust. Detailed health safety guidelines can be developed to decrease respiratory symptoms and diseases from nail dust exposure.

Background
Hand-assisted laparoscopic donor nephrectomy (HALDN) is widely performed to minimize burden on living kidney donors. However, hand port-site infections after HALDN may occur. This study aimed to assess the impact of donor characteristics including preoperative comorbidities and operative factors on hand port-site infection after HALDN.

Methods
In this single-center, retrospective cohort study, 1,260 consecutive HALDNs for living-donor kidney transplantation performed between January 2008 and December 2021 were evaluated. All living donors met the living kidney donor guidelines in Japan. Hand port-site infections were identified in 88 HALDN cases (7.0%). To investigate risk factors for hand port-site infection, donor characteristics including preoperative comorbidities such as hypertension, glucose intolerance, dyslipidemia, obesity, and operative factors such as operative duration, blood loss, preoperative antibiotic prophylaxis, and prophylactic subcutaneous suction drain placement at the hand port-site were analyzed using logistic regression analysis.

Results
In the multivariate analysis, significant differences were identified regarding sex (P = 0.021; odds ratio [OR], 1.971; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.108–3.507), preoperative antibiotic prophylaxis (P < 0.001; OR, 0.037; 95% CI [0.011–0.127]), and prophylactic subcutaneous suction drain placement at the hand port-site (P = 0.041; OR, 2.005; 95% CI [1.029–3.907]). However, a significant difference was not identified regarding glucose intolerance (P = 0.572; OR, 1.148; 95% CI [0.711–1.856]). Preoperative comorbidities may not cause hand port-site infections within the donors who meet the living kidney donor guidelines. Preoperative antibiotic prophylaxis is crucial in preventing hand port-site infection, whereas prophylactic subcutaneous suction drain placement may increase the risk of hand port-site infection.

Synthesized composites were characterized through UV-spectrophotometer, XRD, SEM, EDX and FTIR analysis. SEM and EDX images confirmed surface morphology of ordinary mesoporous nano silica (mNs) and Fe & Zn embedded mNs. In XRD pattern of mNs peaks absence indicate that nano silica synthesized by sol-gel method was amorphous whereas reduced graphene oxide (rGO) synthesized in crystalline form. FTIR spectra of Zn and Fe loaded mNs and rGO showed that encapsulation of zinc and iron by mNS and rGO was successful. Results of experiment indicate, twice foliar application of 60 ppm Zn+ 30 ppm Fe through mNs (T6) and 40 ppm Zn+20 ppm Fe through rGO (T8) exhibited significantly higher economic and biological yields of both crops over conventional and Control. With increasing doses of nano zinc and iron through mNs composite capsules, significant increase in nutrients content and uptake by cabbage and cauliflower was observed in comparison to control. Whereas, increasing doses of nano zinc and iron application through rGO lead to a considerable reduction in nutrient content and thus hamper their uptake. Thus, T6 and T8 treatments were best pronounced in terms of yields, nutrients uptake and enriching biomass by iron and zinc content in cabbage and cauliflower, respectively. Compared to control, quality of cabbage head and cauliflower curd biomass in terms of Fe and Zn content, protein and phenol content were significantly more with 40 ppm Zn+20 ppm Fe (T8) and 60 ppm Zn+30 ppm Fe (T6) through rGO and mNs , respectively. Available zinc and iron in soil was unaffected by application of zinc and Fe through mNs and rGO in crops.

The evaluation of varieties for a particular region is an important process in order to screen the potential cultivars for any specific region or climate. Although the varieties may express a unique behaviour under certain area, but it may fail or sustain that peculiar character when grown under different location. Along with varieties, planting time significantly affect the crop production. Therefore, standardization of planting time is very important to get a good growth and excellent quality of cut flowers. By using staggered planting, the flowering period may also be extended for fetching a good price during different occasions. The present investigation comprised five oriental lily varieties along with three planting time (1st fortnight of October, 2nd fortnight of October and 1st fortnight of November) and observations were recorded for various vegetative parameters. Out of the three-planting time, the varieties planted during 1st fortnight of October performed better resulting in terms of maximum plant height, number of leaves, leaf length, leaf width etc. Among the varieties, St. Andrews performed overall best with respect to highest percentage of bulb sprouting, plant height, leaf length, leaf width etc.

ImportanceUnderstanding of the economic burden of recurrent vestibular causes of vertigo and areas contributing to the cost is needed.ObjectiveTo analyze and identify the factors contributing to the direct medical costs associated with Ménière disease (MD), vestibular migraine (VM), and benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV).Design, Setting, and ParticipantsThis economic evaluation used MarketScan Commercial Database claims data from 2018 to identify the non-Medicare patient population with the diagnoses of MD, VM, or BPPV. Data were analyzed January 1 to December 31, 2018.Main Outcomes and MeasuresThe total direct medical costs associated with MD, VM, and BPPV.ResultsA total of 53 210 patients (mean [SD] age, 47.8 [11.8] years; 67.6% female) were included in this study, with 34 738 normal comparisons. There were 5783 (10.9%) patients with MD, 3526 (6.6%) patients with VM, and 43 901 (82.5%) patients with BPPV in the data set. Mean age and sex were different across the different vestibular disorders. Across the different groups, patients with no comorbidities or with a Charlson Comorbidity Index score of zero ranged from 98.4% to 98.8%. Around 5% of patients were hospitalized with inpatient stay lasting between 4.6 and 5.2 days. After adjusting for age, sex, and comorbidities, there were large differences in mean adjusted annual payments/direct costs across the different groups (MD, $9579; VM, $11 371; and BPPV, $8247). This equated to a total incremental estimated cost of $60 billion compared with the normal population. The number of outpatient brain magnetic resonance imaging or computed tomography scans per patient ranged anywhere from 1 to 20, while the number of inpatient brain magnetic resonance imaging or computed tomography scans per patient ranged anywhere from 1 to 6. A heat map of the total cost expenditure indicated that the costs were concentrated around the Midwest, Lake Michigan, and the East Coast.Conclusions and RelevanceIn this economic evaluation, the 3 most common causes of recurrent vertigo—MD, VM, and BPPV—had considerable medical costs associated with them. Extraneous imaging orders and vestibular testing are factors to consider for cost reduction. However, further research and widespread education is needed to optimize the diagnosis, treatment, and care of patients presenting with vestibular disorders or dizziness.
Transparent and Flexible Photo‐Driven Smart Window Display Displayed by Near‐Infrared Laser
Authors: Yang Jonguk , Lim Taekyung , Ju Sanghyun 
Published: October 2022

AbstractA smart window is an active light control technology that can freely control the transmittance of light, thereby improving the energy efficiency of the interior space and providing a comfortable environment through the control of sunlight from the outside. In this study, a novel smart window that can be utilized as an information‐providing display is developed by a simple light‐blocking technology for existing smart windows. A transparent flexible smart window board is fabricated by inserting a hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC)–cesium tungsten oxide (CTO) composite hydrogel between two transparent substrates. When the smart window board is irradiated with a near‐infrared (NIR) laser, the heat emitted from the CTO absorbing the NIR energy is transferred to the HPC, thereby changing the visible light transmittance of the HPC. Because only the portion irradiated with the NIR laser can selectively change the visible‐light transmittance, various types of images can be formed in real time. The proposed photo‐driven smart window display can be utilized as a novel platform for window displays that can express various images in real time and can act as a curtain by adjusting the transmittance of light, changing to transparent/opaque, which is oriented in existing smart windows.
Evolution of Reverse‐Biased Current of a Barristor Junction by Varying Temperature and Barrier Height of the Junction
Authors: Choi Inchul , Jeong Nae bong , Kim Minjeong , Yu Jaeho , Chung Hyun‐Jong 
Published: October 2022

AbstractThe reverse‐biased current of a Schottky junction comprises the thermionic emission current and the Fowler–Nordheim tunneling current, depending on the barrier height and thickness. Because both are fixed at traditional Schottky junctions, so is the current mechanism. However, a barristor junction has a tunable barrier height and the current mechanism changes accordingly. Here, the evolution of the current mechanism of the graphene–WS2 junction is investigated by varying the gate voltage, drain voltage, and temperature. As the height decreases with the accumulation of electrons on graphene, the dominant transport mechanism of the junction changes from thermionic to field emission. As the temperature increases, the extrinsic carrier concentration of WS2 increases and thus the thickness decreases, resulting in the same evolution. In addition, a kink in the ID–VD curves over a specific range of gate voltages and temperatures is observed. This may originate from the alignment of the Fermi level of graphene to the Dirac point, which dramatically reduces the Fowler–Nordheim tunneling current.

Published: October 2022

AbstractWhile vinyl cyclopropanes are valuable functional groups in drugs or natural products as well as established precursors to trigger a rich variety of synthetic transformations, their reactive nature can make their installation via direct catalytic approaches challenging. We herein present a modular access to (di)vinyl cyclopropanes under very mild conditions and full conservation of stereochemistry, allowing access to thecisortranscyclopropane‐ as well asEorZvinyl‐stereochemical relationships. Our protocol relies on air‐stable dinuclear PdIcatalysis, which enables rapid (<30 min) and selective access to a diverse range of vinyl cyclopropane motifs at room temperature, even on gram scale.

Published: October 2022

AbstractMany Zintl phases are promising thermoelectric materials owning to their features like narrow band gaps, multiband behaviors, ideal charge transport tunnels, and loosely bound cations. Herein we show a new Zintl phase NaCdSb with exceptional intrinsic thermoelectric performance. Pristine NaCdSb exhibits semiconductor behaviors with an experimental hole concentration of 2.9×1018 cm−3 and a calculated band gap of 0.5 eV. As the temperature increases, the hole concentration rises gradually and approaches its optimal one, leading to a high power factor of 11.56 μW cm−1 K−2 at 673 K. The ultralow thermal conductivity is derived from the small phonon group velocity and short phonon lifetime, ascribed to the structural anharmonicity of Cd−Sb bonds. As a consequence, a maximum zT of 1.3 at 673 K has been achieved without any doping optimization or structural modification, demonstrating that NaCdSb is a remarkable thermoelectric compound with great potential for performance improvement.

Published: October 2022

AbstractOver the past few years, the development of efficient methods to construct high‐valued N‐heterocyclic molecules have received massive attention owing to their extensive application in the areas of medicinal chemistry, drug discovery, natural product synthesis and so on. To access those high‐valued N‐heterocycles, many methods have been developed. In this context, transition‐metal‐catalyzed denitrogenative annulation of 1,2,3‐triazoles and 1,2,3,4‐tetrazoles has appeared as a powerful synthetic tool because it offers a step‐ and atom‐economical route for the preparation of the nitrogen‐rich molecules. Compared with the denitrogenative annulation of various 1,2,3‐triazole frameworks, annulation of 1,2,3,4‐tetrazole remains more challenging due to the inertness of the tetrazole moiety. This Review summarizes the significant achievements made in the field of denitrogenative annulation of various 1,2,3‐triazoles and 1,2,3,4‐tetrazoles including some pioneering examples in this area of research. We anticipate that this denitrogenative annulation reaction will find broad applications in the pharmaceutical industry, drug discovery and other fields of medicinal chemistry.

Published: October 2022

AbstractSupplying sufficient oxygen within the scaffolds is one of the essential hindrances in tissue engineering that can be resolved by oxygen‐generating biomaterials (OGBs). Two main issues related to OGBs are controlling oxygenation and reactive oxygen species (ROS). To address these concerns, we developed a composite scaffold entailing three layers (hydrogel‐electrospun fibers‐hydrogel) with antioxidant and antibacterial properties. The fibers, the middle layer, reinforced the composite structure, enhancing the mechanical strength from 4.27 ± 0.15 to 8.27 ± 0.25 kPa; also, this layer is made of calcium peroxide and silk fibroin (SF) through electrospinning, which enables oxygen delivery. The first and third layers are physical SF hydrogels to control oxygen release, containing quercetin (Q), a nonenzymatic antioxidant. This composite scaffold resulted in almost more than 40 mmHg of oxygen release for at least 13 days, and compared with similar studies is in a high range. Here, Q was used for the first time for an OGB to scavenge the possible ROS. Q delivery not only led to antioxidant activity but also stabilized oxygen release and enhanced cell viability. Based on the given results, this composite scaffold can be introduced as a safe and controllable oxygen supplier, which is promising for tissue engineering applications, particularly for bone.

Published: October 2022

AbstractFrataxin is a kinetic activator of the mitochondrial supercomplex for iron‐sulfur cluster assembly. Low frataxin expression or a decrease in its functionality results in Friedreich's Ataxia (FRDA). With the aim of creating new molecular tools to study this metabolic pathway, and ultimately, to explore new therapeutic strategies, we have investigated the possibility of obtaining small proteins exhibiting a high affinity for frataxin. In this study, we applied the ribosome display approach, using human frataxin as the target. We focused on Affi_224, one of the proteins that we were able to select after five rounds of selection. We have studied the interaction between both proteins and discussed some applications of this specific molecular tutor, concerning the modulation of the supercomplex activity. Affi_224 and frataxin showed a KD value in the nanomolar range, as judged by surface plasmon resonance analysis. Most likely, it binds to the frataxin acidic ridge, as suggested by the analysis of chemical shift perturbations (nuclear magnetic resonance) and computational simulations. Affi_224 was able to increase Cys NFS1 desulfurase activation exerted by the FRDA frataxin variant G130V. Importantly, Affi_224 interacts with frataxin in a human cellular model. Our results suggest quaternary addition may be a new tool to modulate frataxin function in vivo. Nevertheless, more functional experiments under physiological conditions should be carried out to evaluate Affi_224 effectiveness in FRDA cell models.
