description: Aluminium carbide (Al4C3) has gained extensive attention due to its abrasive and creep resistance properties. Aim of the present study was to evaluate the impact of biofield treatment on physical and structural properties of Al4C3 powder. The Al4C3 powder was divided into two parts i.e. control and treated. Control part was remained as untreated and treated part received biofield treatment. Subsequently, control and treated Al4C3 samples were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), surface area analyser and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). XRD data revealed that lattice parameter and unit cell volume of treated Al4C3 samples were increased by 0.33 and 0.66% respectively, as compared to control. The density of treated Al4C3 samples was reduced upto 0.65% as compared to control. In addition, the molecular weight and crystallite size of treated Al4C3 samples were increased upto 0.66 and 249.53% respectively as compared to control. Furthermore, surface area of treated Al4C3 sample was increased by 5% as compared to control. The FT-IR spectra revealed no significant change in absorption peaks of treated Al4C3 samples as compared to control. Thus, XRD and surface area results suggest that biofield treatment has substantially altered the physical and structural properties of treated Al4C3 powder.

description: The Threshold of Toxicological Concern (TTC) is an approach for assessing the safety of chemicals with low levels of exposure for which limited toxicology data are available. The original TTC criteria were derived for oral exposures from a distributional analysis of a dataset of 613 chemicals that identified 5th percentile no observed effect level (NOEL) values grouped within three tiers of compounds having specific structural functional groups and/or toxic potencies known as Cramer I, II and III classifications. Subsequent assessments of the TTC approach have established current thresholds to be scientifically robust. While the TTC has gained acknowledgment and acceptance by many regulatory agencies and organizations, use of the TTC approach in evaluating drinking water chemicals has been limited. To apply the TTC concept to drinking water chemicals, an exposure-based approach that incorporates the current weight of evidence for the target chemical is presented. Such an approach provides a comparative point of departure to the 5th percentile TTC NOEL using existing data, while conserving the allocation of toxicological resources for quantitative risk assessment to chemicals with greater exposure or toxicity. This approach will be considered for incorporation into NSF/ANSI/CAN 600, a health effects standard used in the safety evaluation of chemicals present in drinking water from drinking water contact additives and materials certified to NSF/ANSI/CAN 60 and 61, respectively.

Arctic and sub-Arctic ocean observations: where do we go?

New Arctic and sub-Arctic observational programs are upcoming, enhancing ongoing activities. These focus on an Arctic observing system (e.g. INTAROS, AOS), high-latitude/mid-latitude interaction (e.g. APPLICATE, BLUE ACTION), prediction capabilities (e.g. YOPP, SIPN) or the drifting observatory MOSAIC, to name a few. At the same time we have seen the cessation of a number of long-term observational programs in the Arctic and sub-Arctic.

With a temporal horizon of 5 years in mind, we suggest to discuss the path of Arctic observations in the context of ASOF:

	How well do the observational programs do in contributing to solve key scientific questions?
	Where do we see progress, where are the gaps (spatial, temporal, technical, scientific) and how could they be closed?
	What is the current status of the integration of models and observations: a) how well can models aid observational network design, b) how an observing system is/shall be set up which is able to be useful for models and model prediction.
	What is the role of ASOF in these activities, and should we get involved more, for example into the AOS, and into YOPP?

Ἑτέρα τις γυνὴ ἔσχεν υἱόν, ὃς ἐξαίφνης ἐγένετο καταβαρής, τῶν δύο αὐτοῦ διδύμων ἐξογκωθέντων, καὶ οὐκ ἴσχυεν ἐκ τῆς ὀδύνης ἠρεμῆσαι τοῦ κλαίειν. τοῦτον ἡ μήτηρ λαβοῦσα ἐν τῷ ναῷ τῆς Θεοτόκου τὰ Κύρου προσεκαρτέρησεν, σὺν δάκρυσιν αἰτουμένη αὐτὴν τοῦ ἐξ αὐτῆς ἐλέους ἐπιτυχεῖν. φαίνεται οὖν αὐτῇ τις ἐν ὀνείρῳ καὶ λέγει αὐτῇ· “Ἀπάγαγε τὸ τέκνον σου εἰς τὴν Ὀξεῖαν, εἰς τὸν ἅγιον Ἰωάννην, καὶ παράμεινον τῷ ἁγίῳ Ἀρτεμίῳ, καὶ καλῶς ἕξει τὸ τέκνον σου”. ἡ δὲ ἀναστᾶσα καὶ λαβοῦσα τὸ τέκνον ἀπῆλθεν εἰς τὸν λεχθέντα αὐτῇ ναόν, καὶ ποιήσασα τὰ ἔθη· καὶ παραμενούσης φαίνεται αὐτῇ ὁ ἅγιος ἐν ὀνείρῳ, ὅτι ἥψατο τῶν διδύμων τοῦ υἱοῦ αὐτῆς, καὶ εἶπεν· “Ὁ ἐκ τῆς Θεοτόκου τεχθεὶς Χριστὸς ὁ θεός, αὐτός σε ἰᾶται”. ἡ δὲ διυπνισθεῖσα ηὗρεν αὐτὸ ὑγιὲς καὶ ἐδόξαζεν τὸν θεόν.

'Another woman had a son who suddenly suffered from a hernia after his two testicles had become swollen and could not stop crying because of the pain. The mother took him and waited in the church of the Theotokos in the Ta Kyrou [quarter], tearfully beseeching the Mother of God to receive mercy from her. Then someone appeared to her in a dream and said to her: "Carry your child to the Oxeia to St. John’s and wait upon St. Artemios and your child will be fine.’' Getting up and taking the child, she went to church specified to her and performed the customary rites. While she was waiting, the saint appeared to her in a dream in which he touched her son's testicles and said: "Christ our God, born of the Theotokos, This very One, heals you." Awakening, she found him healthy and glorified God.'

description: This paper proposes a strictly predefined-time convergent and anti-noise fractional-order zeroing neural network (SPTC-AN-FOZNN) model, meticulously designed for addressing time-variant quadratic programming (TVQP) problems. This model marks the first variable-gain ZNN to collectively manifest strictly predefined-time convergence and noise resilience, specifically tailored for kinematic motion control of robots. The SPTC-AN-FOZNN advances traditional ZNNs by incorporating a conformable fractional derivative in accordance with the Leibniz rule, a compliance not commonly achieved by other fractional derivative definitions. It also features a novel activation function designed to ensure favorable convergence independent of the model's order. When compared to five recently published recurrent neural networks (RNNs), the SPTC-AN-FOZNN, configured with $0<α\leq 1$, exhibits superior positional accuracy and robustness against additive noises for TVQP applications. Extensive empirical evaluations, including simulations with two types of robotic manipulators and experiments with a Flexiv Rizon robot, have validated the SPTC-AN-FOZNN's effectiveness in precise tracking and computational efficiency, establishing its utility for robust kinematic control.

description: Current studies have clearly shown that aristolochic acid (AA) exposure can induce a variety of diseases, such as kidney disease, liver cancer, and urinary tract cancer (UTC). However, no studies have systematically analyzed and integrated these results. Therefore, we aimed to elucidate the association between AA exposure and the risk of safety outcomes for AA-related overall disease and different types of disease it causes. We conducted an exhaustive search of PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library for relevant material up to April 2024. For AA-related overall disease, AA exposure was significantly associated with an increased incidence of AA-related overall disease (OR: 1.289, 95% CI: 1.183 − 1.404). For different types of disease, AA exposure was significantly associated with increased incidence of kidney disease (OR: 1.279, 95% CI: 1.029 − 1.590), UTC (OR: 1.842, 95% CI: 1.376 − 2.465) and liver cancer (OR: 1.146, 95% CI: 1.040 − 1.262). No significant association was found between AA exposure and the incidence of brain disease (OR: 1.161, 95% CI: 0.989 − 1.362). This study systematically analyzed various safety outcomes associated with AA exposure to provide a solid scientific basis for future prevention strategies and clinical management.

'A certain sailor afflicted by the same disease waited upon the saint for 30 days. Since his shipmates urged him to set sail, he withdrew from the church and set sail. After they had passed beyond Abydos, while they were sailing with a favorable wind, they plainly saw someone wearing a cloak standing by the steersman giving orders and they were amazed at the strange sight, seeing a stranger in such a garb sailing with them. It happened that about this time the sick man was lying near the helmsman. Now the stranger they were staring at made as if to lay hold of the tiller so as to help the pilot, and pretending not to notice, he trod upon the sick man’s testicles. The man, gripped by fear, shouted loudly and touching his testicles found them healed, and, amazed at what had happened, he showed himself to his shipmates as well; these had witnessed both the miracle as well as the disappearance of the stranger who had been sailing with them, and they shouted for many hours: “Lord, have mercy.” While these [shipmates] returned home, the healed man posthaste took what was suitable for thanksgiving and returned to the divinely favoured [city], where the tomb of the saint is situated, and thanked God and the holy martyr.'

description: Noise pollution is recognized as an environmental stressor that affects various biological processes beyond auditory functions, mainly through stress hormones release. This work explored the biological processes, diseases attributable to noise-regulated targets, and the main targets involved in each disease, employing a network toxicology approach. Through various databases and bioinformatics analysis, a total of 577 targets were identified as potential candidates implicated in diseases related to noise exposure, 10 from the GEO database and the rest from other databases. Noise pollution was found to regulate processes such as hormone response, cellular response to cytokines, and circulatory system functions, contributing to the development of the pathological manifestations related to the diseases like hypertension, ischemia, atherosclerosis, and cirrhosis. Hub targets for ischemia included IL-6, CASP3, AKT1, and TNF-α, while NOS3 was related to hypertension, and NOS3, TNF-α, AGT, and IL-1B to atherosclerosis. The targets were found to be linked to vascular regulation and inflammation in cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Molecular docking studies indicated stress hormones released by noise exposure regulates these diseases through signaling pathways, without implicating its direct binding to hub targets. The results indicate that individuals with vascular diseases are more vulnerable to the effects of prolonged noise exposure.

'Likewise another woman's child was suffering pain in his testicles and because of the pain he kept up a loud wailing and with the child she was waiting in the most holy church of the Forerunner. She saw the holy martyr Artemios in her sleep who handed her a small confectioner's cake and said to her: "Place it in your child's mouth." And she accepted it and did as she was told, while the man who gave it to her had another cake which he crushed in his palm and placed on the testicle where the child was diseased, like a poultice, and said to the woman: "Your child is fine, so get up and give thanks to Christ Our Saviour Who cured him." And at that word, she woke up, sat up, and after by herself carefully considering the dream about the saint’s vision, she touched her child’s genitals and found a poultice made of wax placed on the diseased testicle along with a rag. She lifted it up and found the child healed and cheerfully resting. She got up and along with her child threw herself in front of the sacristy doors where the most revered icon of the Saviour stands, offering thanks to His goodness because He does unbelievable things through His martyr.'

description: The androgen receptor (AR) activation by androgens is vital for tissue development, sexual differentiation, and reproductive attributes in zebrafish (Danio rerio). However, our understanding of the molecular mechanisms behind their activation remains limited. In this study, we employed both ab initio (AlphaFold) and homology (SWISS-MODEL) structure models of zebrafish androgen receptor ligand-binding domain (zAR-LBD) to explore the binding specificity, binding affinity, and molecular interactions of endogenous hormones (testosterone (T), 11-ketotestosterone (11-KT), and dihydrotestosterone (DHT)) in a computational simulation. Molecular docking analysis showed that both structures formed the same interactions and similar patterns of binding energy with androgens. Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulation analysis revealed that hydrogen bond occupancy aligned with in vitro findings related to androgenic effect. When comparing complexes modeled by SWISS-MODEL and AlphaFold, significant differences were observed in root mean square deviation (RMSD) and root mean square fluctuations (RMSF). The AlphaFold structures also exhibited a clear separation between ligands in principal component analysis. Further correlation analysis between in silico features and in vitro EC50 values identified MMPBSA energies as the most significant contributors to ligand-specific variance in the in silico complexes (p < 0.05). Overall, this integrative approach offers significant insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying zebrafish AR activity. 3D structures of zAR-LBD were generated using ab initio prediction and homology modeling programs. The AlphaFold model demonstrated greater structural stability, which significantly impacted the accuracy, reliability, and reproducibility of data predictions compared to the SWISS-MODEL. Hydrogen bond patterns in the AlphaFold structure were consistent with in vitro androgenic effects. The integrated in vitro and in silico approaches holds potential as a complementary tool for screening androgenic EDCs.

E04259: Coptic agreement from Hermopolis (Middle Egypt) concerning the employment of a sailor aboard a ship associated with or named after Apa *Severos (presumably Severos bishop of Antioch, ob. 538, S00262) for the duration of one year; datable to the first half of the 7th century.

In this agreement, Ioannes, a sailor from Hermopolis, addresses another sailor named George from his home town, confirming that he will embark with him on a small ship of Apa Severos for the duration of one year, setting out the conditions of the contract and the fine to be paid, if this contract were to be broken. Two witnesses sign the lengthy document.

‘Apa Severos’ seems to be the name of the vessel, unless it refers to a ship running on behalf of a monastery or shrine dedicated to Apa Severos, hiring outside sailors. The latter seems, however, less likely to be the case, since one would expect a monastic connection to be mentioned in such an otherwise meticulously laid out contract.

description: Methyl-2-napthylether (nerolin) is an organic compound and has the applications in pharmaceutical, and perfume industry. The stable isotope ratio analysis is increasing importance in various field of scientific research. The objective of the current study was to evaluate the effect of the biofield energy treatment on the isotopic abundance ratios of PM+1/PM (2H/1H or 13C/12C or 17O/16O) and PM+2/PM (18O/16O) in nerolin using the gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The compound nerolin was divided into two parts – one part was control sample (untreated), and another part was considered as biofield energy treated sample which was received the biofield energy treatment through the unique biofield energy transmission process by Mr. Mahendra Kumar Trivedi (also known as The Trivedi Effect©). The biofield energy treated nerolin was analyzed at different time intervals and were represented as T1, T2, T3, and T4 in order to understand the effect of the biofield energy treatment on isotopic abundance ratio with respect to the time. From the GC-MS spectral analysis, the presence of the molecular ion peak C11H10O+(m/z 158) along with major fragmented peaks C10H7O– (m/z 143), C10H8 (m/z 128), C9H7+ (m/z 115), C7H5+ (m/z 89), C5H3+ (m/z 63), C4H3+(m/z 51), and C3H3+ (m/z 39) were observed in both control and biofield treated samples. Only, the relative peak intensities of the fragmented ions in the biofield treated nerolin was notably changed as compared to the control sample with respect to the time. The isotopic abundance ratio analysis of nerolin using GC-MS revealed that the isotopic abundance ratio of PM+1/PM in the biofield energy treated nerolin at T1, T2, T3, and T4 was increased by 2.38, 138.10, 13.10, and 32.14%, as compared to the control sample. Likewise, the isotopic abundance ratio of PM+2/PM at T1, T2, T3, and T4 was increased by 2.38, 138.10, 13.10, and 32.14%, respectively in the biofield treated nerolin as compared to the control sample. Overall, isotopic abundance the ratios of PM+1/PM (2H/1H or 13C/12C or 17O/16O) and PM+2/PM (18O/16O) were significantly increased in the biofield energy treated sample as compared to the control sample with respect to the time. It is concluded that Mr. Trivedi’s biofield energy treatment has the significant impact on alteration in isotopic abundance of nerolin as compared to the control sample. The biofield treated nerolin might display different altered physicochemical properties and rate of reaction and could be an important intermediate for the production of pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and perfumes in the industry.

description: Premature ovarian insufficiency/failure is a well-known long-term risk of chemotherapy including CDDP in women. Granulosa cells (GCs) are an essential ovarian cell type that promotes oocyte growth and is crucial for ovarian reproductive function. Hyperoside (HYP) is a flavonoid known for its beneficial pharmacological properties, including anti-inflammatory and antiapoptotic effects. Hence the current work aimed to evaluate the potential cytoprotective impact of HYP on CDDP-induced cytotoxicity in a human ovarian GCs cell line model via a wide range of assays including MTT, hormones secretion, ATP and mitochondrial membrane potential, reactive oxygen species, lipid peroxidation as well as antioxidant enzymes, Caspases, and Akt kinase activities. Forty-eight-hour exposure to 5–10µM CDDP resulted in reduction of GCs viability in a dose-dependent manner. HYP (40 µM) was found to ameliorate this CDDP -induced effect on GCs viability. CDDP in a concentration-dependent way, dramatically reduced cellular ATP, mitochondrial activities, cellular progesterone, and estradiol secretion. It also increased oxidative stress markers, cytochrome c levels, caspase −3.-8.-9, and Bax/Bcl2 ratio with decreased Akt kinase activity and its coding genes expression. These cytotoxic effects of CDDP on the treated GCs, were mitigated to varying degrees by HYP (40 µM). In conclusion, CDDP-induced cytotoxic effects on GCs seem to be the possible underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms of CDDP-induced ovarian insufficiency/failure. The study also demonstrated the therapeutic potential of HYP in mitigating CDDP-induced ovarian injury. Further studies are warranted to investigate the potential benefit of HYP as an adjuvant to CDDP treatment protocols to avoid adverse ovarian effects.

description: Heavy metal and metalloid (HM) exposure poses significant health risks, including cardiovascular disease, cancer, and renal damage. This contamination, prevalent in the Western US, involves arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), uranium (U), and vanadium (V). Interstitial fluid (ISF) is a source of biomarkers, which can be minimally invasively collected using microneedle array (MA) technology. Our study hypothesized that MA-extracted ISF would facilitate noninvasive HM quantification. We established analytical parameters for HM detection in ISF using inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), defined baseline ISF HM concentrations in unexposed animal populations, and monitored HM levels in ISF under mixed exposure in animal models. Additionally, we assessed HM levels in ISF and biological fluids from three human subjects. Thirty-six Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into cohorts: low-level mixed HMs exposure (5X maximum contaminant level (MCL)); high-level single HM with low-level others (50X MCL for one HM with 5X for others); and unexposed controls. ISF and plasma were collected weekly for 8 weeks and analyzed via ICP-MS. Our findings reveal a correlation between ISF and plasma HM levels, underscoring ISF’s potential for real-time monitoring of HM exposure. This study also establishes baseline ISF HM levels, illustrating the feasibility of HM quantification using small ISF volumes.

description: 1-Chloro-3-nitrobenzene (3-CNB) is an aromatic halo-amine compound used as chemical intermediate for the production of several fine chemicals like pharmaceuticals, dyes, agricultural chemicals, etc. The stable isotope ratio analysis has drawn attention in numerous fields such as agricultural, food authenticity, biochemistry, etc. The objective of the current research was to investigate the impact of the biofield energy treatment on the isotopic abundance ratios of PM+1/PM, PM+2/PM and PM+3/PM in 3-CNB using gas chromatography – mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The sample, 3-CNB was divided into two parts – one part was denoted as control and another part was referred as biofield energy treated sample that was treated with biofield energy (The Trivedi Effect®). T1, T2, T3, and T4 were represented to different time interval analysis of the biofield treated 3-CNB. The GC-MS spectra of the both control and biofield treated 3-CNB indicated the presence of molecular ion peak [M+] at m/z 157 (calculated 156.99 for C6H4ClNO2) along with same pattern of fragmentation. The relative intensities of the parent molecule and other fragmented ions of the biofield treated 3-CNB were improved as compared to the control 3-CNB. The percentage change of the isotopic abundance ratio of PM+1/PM was significantly increased in the biofield treated 3-CNB at T1, T2 and T3 by 11.62, 18.50, and 29.82%, respectively with respect to the control 3-CNB. Accordingly, the isotopic abundance ratio of PM+2/PM in the biofield treated 3-CNB at T2 and T3 was significantly improved by 15.22 and 35.09%, respectively as compared to the control sample. The isotopic abundance ratios of PM+1/PM and PM+2/PM in the biofield treated 3-CNB at T1 and T4 were changed as compared to the control sample. The percentage change of the isotopic abundance ratio of PM+3/PM was enhanced in the biofield treated 3-CNB at T1, T2, T3, and T4 by 4.67, 18.69, 31.31 and 6.08%, respectively as compared to the control 3-CNB. The isotopic abundance ratios of PM+1/PM, PM+2/PM and PM+3/PM in the biofield treated 3-CNB changed with the time. So, the biofield energy treated 3-CNB might exhibit the altered isotope effects such as altered physicochemical and thermal properties, binding energy, and the rate of the chemical reaction as compared to the control sample. The biofield energy treated 3-CNB might assist in designing for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agricultural chemicals, dyes, corrosion inhibitors and other several useful industrial chemicals.

description: Introduction: Complementary and alternative medicine such as biofield energy therapies are highly popular in biomedical health care. The study evaluates the impact of Mr. Trivedi’s biofield energy treatment on Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) to evaluate its phenotypic and genotypic characteristics.

Methods: P. aeruginosa ATCC 10145 (American Type Culture Collection) was procured from Bangalore Genei, in sealed pack and divided into control and treated groups. Treated group was subjected to biofield treatment and analyzed for antibiogram, biochemical reactions, and biotype number using automated MicroScan Walk-Away® system on day 10. The treated sample was evaluated for DNA polymorphism by Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and 16S rDNA sequencing to establish the phylogenetic relationship, the epidemiological relatedness and genetic characteristics.

Results: Data showed altered sensitivity pattern in antibiotic cefotaxime from intermediate to decreased β-lactamases activity, with four-fold decreased minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), i.e. 32 to ≤8 µg/mL as compared to control. Similarly, cefotetan and extended-spectrum-β-lactamases (ESBL-b Scrn) showed decrease in MIC values as compared to the control group. Nitrate reported for negative biochemical reaction i.e. positive (+) to negative (-) after biofield treatment on P. aeruginosa. The biotyping showed a change in biotype number (02063722) as compared to the control (02063726), without altering the microorganism. RAPD analysis showed an average range of 30 to 50% of polymorphism, while 16S rDNA sequencing analyzed treated sample as Pseudomonas aeruginosa (GenBank Accession Number: EU090892) with 99% identity of gene sequencing data.

Conclusion: These results suggest that Mr. Trivedi’s unique biofield energy treatment on P. aeruginosa has an impact to alter the antimicrobial sensitivity pattern and MIC values, thus it can be used as an alternate integrative approach of energy medicine in near future.
