Abstract:
The Euterpe edulis (Juçara) is native to Brazil, which berries and wastes present high antioxidant content. Therefore, in this study, microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) was investigated for antioxidant compounds extraction from E. edulis waste and maximized antioxidant activities using response surface methodology coupled with a central composite design. Three factors were observed: microwave power (400/500/600 W), exposition time (30/60/90 sec) and ethanol concentration solvent (40/60/80%). The extracts were characterized by determination of total phenolic (TPC), flavonoids (TFC), monomeric anthocyanins (TAC), tannins content (TTC), and in vitro antioxidant assay (AA%). The yield of TPC, TFC, TAC, and TTC varied at 595.43-2171.34 mg GAE.100 g DM-1, 137.36-251.24 mg QE.100 g DM-1, 179.32-354.38 mg C-3-GE.100 g DM-1 and 0.23-1.00 µg TAE.100 g DM-1, respectively. The optimal MAE parameters for TPC was microwave power 668.18 W, exposition time 110.45 s and aqueous ethanol concentration 93.64%, for TFC same parameters observed; though for TAC the different parameters were 532.28 W, and for TTC 9.55 s. However, for antioxidant activity, the parameters were 668.18 W, 110.45 s time and 64.41% of aqueous ethanol solvent. Therefore, this methodology was successfully applied for optimal extraction of total phenolics, flavonoids, monomeric anthocyanins and tannins from juçara waste and obtain optimal antioxidant activity.

Abstract:
Juniperus procera is a natural source of bioactive compounds with the potential of antitumor, antimicrobial, insecticidal, antifungal, and antioxidant activities. An optimization method was developed for total phenolic content (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC), and total tannin content (TTC) in leaf and seed extract of Juniperus procera. Organic solvents (methanol (99.8%), ethanol (99%), and acetone (99.5%)), and deionized water (DI) were used for extraction. The estimation of TPC, TFC, and TTC in plant materials was carried out using UV-spectrophotometer and HPLC with the standards gallic acid, quercetin, and tannic acid. Recovery of TPC in leaf extract ranged from 2.9 to 9.7 mg GAE/g DW, TFC from 0.9 to 5.9 mg QE/g DW, and TTC ranged from 1.5 to 4.3 mg TA/g DW while the TPC value in the seed extract ranged from 0.53 to 2.6 mg GAE/g DW, TFC from 0.5 to 1.6 mg QE/g DW, and TTC ranged from 0.5 to 1.4 mg TA/g DW. This result revealed that methanol is the best solvent for recovery of the TPC value (9.7 mg) from leaf extract in comparison to other solvents. Ethanol recorded the highest result of TFC (5.9 mg) in leaf extract among the solvents whereas acetone was the best for TTC yield recovery from leaf extract (4.3 mg). In the case of the seed extract, ethanol was the best solvent for both TPC (2.6 mg), and TFC (1.6 mg) recovery in comparison to other solvents. Total tannin content in methanol resulted in significant recovery from seed extract (1.4 mg). Separation and quantification of gallic acid, quercetin, and tannic acid in plant materials were undertaken using HPLC. Gallic acid in leaf and seed of J. procera ranged from 6.6 to 9.2, 6.5 to 7.2 µg/g DW, quercetin from 6.3 to 18.2, 0.9 to 4.2 µg/g DW, and tannic acid from 16.2 to 29.3, 6.6 to 9.3 µg/g DW, respectively. Solvents have shown a significant effect in the extraction of phenolic compounds. Moreover, phytochemicals in plant materials were identified using GC-MS and resulted in very important bioactive compounds, which include anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antitumor agents such as ferruginol, phenanthrene, and n-hexadecanoic acid. In conclusion, the optimal solvent for extraction depends on the part of the plant material and the compounds that are to be isolated.

Abstract:
Plants in either raw form or their root extracts are utilized as complementary and alternative medicine in various disorders. The present study was undertaken for phytoconstituents estimation and to evaluate chemical compositions of methanolic extract of Withania somnifera (L.) Dunal (Ashwagandha) roots collected from BAU, Ranchi, Jharkhand and Sabour, Bhagalpur, Bihar. Phytochemicals through crude methanolic extract were analyzed in Ashwagandha roots. Alcoholic extract was prepared using Soxhlet extraction apparatus. On phytochemical evaluation, total phenolic, flavonoid, total tannin and alkaloids were estimated. Presence of bioactive components in extract was determined by Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrophotometry (ESI positive ion) technique. Qualitative screening of extract ensured the presence of alkaloids, phenols, tannins and flavonoids. Quantitatively these phytochemicals showed TPC (66.06 mg/gm), TFC (650.0 mg/gm), TAC (102 mg/gm) and TTC (5.89 mg/gm). However, the phytochemicals and yield did not accumulate in various fractions on polarity. This result was supported by LC-MS analysis which showed 17 definite peaks in their chromatogram but only 8 peaks offer a suitable approximation. Extract revealed forty five bioactive compounds where most of them were phenolic compounds, aryl propionic acid and cinnamide derivatives. Quantitative analysis of present phytochemical showed maximum quantity of TFC followed by TAC, TPC and TTC. On the other hand, presence of various bioactive compounds in root extract showed that plant is having very high medicinal value.

Abstract:
Abstract Mucuna pruriens L. is a type of legume with high total phenolic and flavonoid compounds and may be a source of antioxidants. Bioactive and chemical components contained in velvet beans were obtained through maceration. Temperature and time of extraction were needed to obtain the optimal extract. The present study aims to explore temperature (30-60°C) and time (120-360 minutes) of the extraction effects on total phenol compounds (TPC), total flavonoid compounds (TFC), total tannin compounds (TTC), and the antioxidant capacity: 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical - scavenging activity (DPPH-RSA), 2,2′-azino-bis-3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid radical - scavenging activity (ABTS+-RSA), and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) of velvet beans using double factor experiments approach. All of the studies extraction conditions indicated a significant effect (p < 0.05) on yield, TPC, TFC, TTC, DPPH-RSA, ABTS+-RSA, and FRAP. These results pointed that velvet beans extract for 60°C at 360 minutes was the highest content of TPC, TFC, and TTC were obtained with values of 41.78 mg GAE/g, 309,65 mg QE/g, and 237,13 mg TAE/g. The antioxidant capacity was 38.15 mg AAEAC/g on DPPH-RSA, 6.36 mg AAEAC/g on ABTS+-RSA, and 35.06 mM FE2+ /g on FRAP.

Abstract:
There is a trade-off between the total penalty paid to customers (TPC) and the total transportation cost (TTC) in depot for vehicle routing problems under uncertainty (VRPU). The trade-off refers to the fact that the TTC in depot inevitably increases when the TPC decreases andvice versa. With respect to this issue, the vehicle routing problem (VRP) with uncertain customer demand and travel time was studied to optimise the TPC and the TTC in depot. In addition, an inverse robust optimisation approach was proposed to solve this kind of VRPU by combining the ideas of inverse optimisation and robust optimisation so as to improve both the TPC and the TTC in depot. The method aimed to improve the corresponding TTC of the robust optimisation solution under the minimum TPC through minimising the adjustment of benchmark road transportation cost. According to the characteristics of the inverse robust optimisation model, a genetic algorithm (GA) and column generation algorithm are combined to solve the problem. Moreover, 39 test problems are solved by using an inverse robust optimisation approach: the results show that both the TPC and TTC obtained by using the inverse robust optimisation approach are less than those calculated using a robust optimisation approach.

Abstract The crystal structure of new conformation of the CyMe4-BTBP ligand (ttc) has been presented. The ttt conformer of this compound in a form of THF solvate has been also crystallized. The geometries of six possible conformations (ttt, ttc, tct, tcc, ctc and ccc) of the CyMe4-BTBP ligand have been modeled in the gas phase and in solutions (MeOH and H2O) by DFT calculations using B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) method. According to the calculations, in the three different media the conformers with trans orientation of the N atoms in the bipyridyl moiety are the most stable.

Abstract:
Caesalpinia sappan is a shrubby Leguminosae tree commonly found in Indonesia, traditionally utilized as natural dye and herbal drink. However, in the making of traditional herbal drink, the bark is often discarded as residues. This research aimed to investigate total phenolic (TPC), flavonoid (TFC), and tannin (TTC) content as well as the antioxidant activity (DPPH scavenging activity) of the bark successive extracted with n-hexane, ethyl acetate, methanol, and hot water as well as analyzed it with GC-MS. The result showed the highest amount of TPC (824.16±62.28 mg GAE/g), TFC (185.03±1.91 mg QE/g), and TTC (987.07±30.98 mg TAE/g) in the methanol extract of the bark. GC-MS analysis resulted hydroquinone as a major constituent in the methanol extract. Further, antioxidant activity was found the strongest on methanol extract (IC50=63.48), while correlation between antioxidant activity and TFC was found the highest (R2=0.93). These findings suggest that bark of C. sappan is a suitable source of natural antioxidant with strong activity to DPPH radical.

Abstract:
Wild mushrooms represent a crucial dietary staple for many tribal groups throughout the world since they consist of a significant source of bioactive constituents such as phenolic compounds, tocopherol, and act as anti-cancer, anti-allergic, anti-obesity, anti-inflammatory compounds, etc. Wild mushrooms including Scleroderma citrinum, Heterobasidion annosum, Coriolus hirsutus, Cavimalum indicum, Russula sanguinea, and Suillus punctatipes were studied to evaluate their phytochemical constituents, antimicrobial activity, antioxidant activity, toxicity and its importance as a source of food along with safety concerns. Initially, the total flavonoid content (TFC), total phenolic content (TPC), and total tannin content (TTC) along with antioxidant, and antimicrobial activity were assessed using ethanolic extracts of fungus. Furthermore, a Brine shrimp bioassay was performed, the correlation of which with antioxidant activity, TPC, TFC, TTC, and lethal concentration (LC50) value was shown by principal component analysis (PCA). Secondary metabolites like glucosides, flavonoids, polyphenols, alkaloids, terpenoids, saponins, and quinones were identified using phytochemical investigations. The TPC ranged from 45.98 to 102.3 mg GAE/g for the extracts, TFC from 100 to 225 mg QE/g, and the TTC was found to vary between 80 to 180 mg GAE/g. The findings of the antioxidant studies demonstrated that S. punctatipes exhibited the highest antioxidant activity (IC50 = 16.95 µg/mL), followed by C. indicum (IC50 = 22.5 µg/mL), and C. hirsutus (IC50 = 35.34 µg/mL). Likewise, S. punctatipes exhibited strong antimicrobial activity as compared to other extracts. The larvicidal efficacy against brine shrimp tests revealed that three mushrooms; C. hirsutus, C. indicum, and S. punctatipes—contain highly toxic substances while the other three are non-toxic and when properly examined can be consumed to some extent.

Abstract:
A few yeast species have been tested frequently to improve the tastes, flavors, and other important quality parameters of coffee. However, continuing evaluations of different yeast species for fermenting green coffee beans will have a significant positive contribution to the coffee industry. This experiment was conducted to evaluate the antioxidant properties, total phenol content (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC), total tannin content (TTC), and the consumer acceptability of fermented green coffee beans with Wickerhamomyces anomalu. The coffee beans were roasted at different roasting conditions (light, medium, and dark). There was no significant (p > 0.05) difference between the yeast-fermented and non-fermented coffee with regard to the oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) values in medium and dark roasted coffee. Similarly, the superoxide dismutase-like (SOD)-like activity did not significantly differ in all roasting conditions. However, the SOD-like activity was significantly different (p < 0.05), particularly within light roasted and medium roasted, and between light roasted and dark roasted in both the control and fermented coffee extracts. The 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging assay and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) were improved in fermented coffee beans. There was a significant (p ≤ 0.05) difference between the yeast-fermented and non-fermented coffee with respect to the TPC and TFC in all roasting types and the TTC in the light and dark roasting conditions. The fermentation of green coffee beans with W. anomalus increased the TPC and TFC. However, the TTC was lower in the fermented coffee beans compared to the non-fermented coffee beans in medium and dark roasted coffee. In general, fermentation of green coffee beans with W. anomalus has the potential to improve the functionality of coffee beans.

Abstract:
Black garlic is a processed product derived from fresh garlic that generally has a taste and aroma that is less preferred. A drying process is employed to increase the attractiveness of consuming black garlic. This study aims to assess the impact of the drying time on the antioxidant activity and content of antioxidant compounds such as phenolics, flavonoids, and tannins in single black garlic. The drying time is expected to yield a single black garlic powder that is more convenient for consumption, whether in capsule form or as an addition to food products. With low moisture content, single black garlic powder has a longer shelf life and high antioxidant activity, potentially commanding a higher market value. In this research, the drying time was carried out on a single black garlic using an oven for 6, 12, 18, and 24 hours. The analysis of the total phenolic content (TPC), entire tannin content (TTC), and total flavonoid content (TFC) was determined using a Uv-Vis spectrophotometer, and each component was measured concerning gallic acid equivalent for TPC, quercetin for TFC, and tannic acid for TTC. Antioxidant activity was determined using the DPPH method, and the outcomes were expressed as IC50 values. The research shows that the extended drying time leads to an augmentation of the antioxidant compound in black garlic. Drying for 24 hours produces significant outcomes, showing potent antioxidant activity with an IC50 value of 37,019 ppm (powerful antioxidant category), total phenolic content value is 44,785 ± 0,033 mgGAE/g, total flavonoid content value is 32,033 ± 0,008 mgQE/g, and total tannins content value is 74,884 ± 0,057 mgTAE/g. Statistical analysis using a one-way ANOVA showed a significant influence of drying time on TPC, TFC, and TTC (p < 0,05). The longer the drying time, the higher the antioxidant activity and the content of compounds acting as antioxidants in black garlic powder.

Abstract:
Batch floats were done on Merensky ore from Section 10 at Impala Platinum. The ultimate objective of this project was a pilot plant trial and certain questions had to be answered before the trial could be conducted. To circumvent decomposition of trithiocarbonates (TIC's) in water, tablets, solvents and emulsions were prepared and tested as carriers of TIC's in the flotation system. The emulsion gave the best result. The decomposition rate of short chain ionic and covalent collectors in water were measured. In water iC3-TIC was less stable and decomposed faster than the corresponding xanthates. Long and short chain ionic TTC's, covalent TTC and long chain mercaptans were evaluated and compared to the standard collector. iC3-TTC dosed in an emulsion showed significant improvement on the standard at Impala Platinum. Combinations of the collectors also showed good results. Mineral potential data for the TTC's differed from xanthates. The TIC dosed as a powder or in emulsion showed a two step drop in potential. At this stage the only conclusion from this is that xanthates and TTC have a different mechanism of adsorption. Three collectors were chosen for testing on a continuous 60 litre cell at Impala Platinum. iC3-TTC dosed in water and the emulsion were compared to the standard collector. A 2.8% and 5% improvement on PGM and nickel recovery was observed with the emulsion.

Abstract:
After the deregulation of the power systems, the large-scale power systems may contain several areas. Each area has its own control center and each control center may have its own state estimator which processes the measurements received from its local substations. When scheduling power transactions, which involve several control areas a system-wide state estimation solution is needed. In this dissertation, an estimation approach which coordinates locally obtained decentralized estimates while improving bad data processing capability at the area boundaries is presented. It is assumed that synchronized phasor measurements from different area buses are available in addition to the conventional measurements provided by the substation remote terminal units. The estimator with hierarchical structure is implemented and tested using different measurement configurations for two systems having 118 and 4520 buses. Furthermore, we apply this multi-area solution scheme to the problem of Total Transfer Capability (TTC) calculation. In a restructured power system, the sellers and buyers of power transactions may be located in different areas. Computation of TTC will then require system-wide studies. We investigate a multi-area solution scheme, which takes advantage of the system-wide calculated Power Transfer Distribution Factors (PTDF) in order for each area to calculate its own TTC while a central entity coordinates these results to determine the final value. The proposed problem formulation and its solution algorithm are presented. 30 and 4520 bus test systems are used to demonstrate the approach and numerically verify the proposed TTC calculation method.

Abstract:
Abstract The increasing awareness of the causes and consequences of climate chance has led to actions to reduce the dependency on oil and other finite energy and raw material sources. Plant biomass is used in increasing amounts as a resource for biofuel, biochemical and fiber production. Carbohydrate enzymology has provided new ways to utilize and modify renewable carbon sources, especially the lignocellulolytic systems of fungi. Cellulolytic enzymes work in a synergistic manner on recalcitrant structure of cellulose, hydrolyzing it into soluble oligosaccharides, and eventually, glucose. Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) contribute to this system by oxidizing either C1- or C4-carbon from the carbohydrate chain on a crystalline cellulose with the help of copper-core induced radicals, thus creating available substrates for the other cellulolytic enzymes. Since their discovery in 2010, the research on their activities and specificities have increased rapidly, but the analytical methods to investigate this diverse group of enzymes is mostly limited to short and soluble products, which are only a fraction of the oxidation products. In addition, most of the methods require special equipment, wide range of standards and expertise to interpret the results. In this study, HPLC and HPAEC-PAD were tested, unsuccessfully, to quantify soluble products from LPMO-catalysis. A TTC-method, in which 2,3,5-triphenyl-2H-tetrazolium chloride is reduced into red and spectrophotometrically quantifiable formazan by reducing ends from insoluble LPMO-products, was successfully optimized and downscaled, and used to optimize reaction conditions for a type 3 LPMO from Trichoderma reesei, TrAA9A, with Whatman filter paper 1 as a substrate. Experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of pH, temperature, donor, time and the presence/absence of H₂O₂ to the accumulation of reducing ends. The results did not show any substantial differences in the accumulation of aldehydes in different reaction conditions. This study showed that cellulose degrades in the presence of TrAA9A and an electron donor. The greatest effects were observed with longer reaction times and the addition of H₂O₂, both increasing the amount of measured aldehydes in the insoluble products. The highest yield was recorded from the reactions with gallic acid as a donor at pH 6, and in the presence of 0.7 mM H₂O₂. The results from this study could lead to understanding the rate-limiting factors of the LPMOs and further improve the utilization of this enzyme in the degradation of lignocellulosic biomass.

Abstract:
Le mouvement d’humidité dans le réseau poreux de certains matériaux est très souvent à l’origine de phénomènes préjudiciables pour la durabilité des constructions du génie civil. C’est en particulier le cas pour le séchage du bois, générateur de fissures et de délaminations aux interfaces de collage, et pour le béton en situation d’incendie où le mouvement d’humidité peut induire des désordres irréversibles (écaillage). Le recours à des modèles prédictifs de ruine des structures nécessite donc la simulation du mouvement d’humidité au sein des matériaux. Ces modèles de transfert de masse et de chaleur sont sophistiqués et nécessitent d’être confrontés à des mesures afin d’être validés. Peu de techniques expérimentales existent pour mesurer les mouvements ou gradients d’humidité dans les réseaux poreux, en particulier en régime transitoire (séchage, incendie). Les techniques existantes sont de plus généralement coûteuses et imposent des conditions sévères de sécurité pour les chercheurs. L’objectif de la thèse est donc de mettre au point un dispositif de mesure de gradients d’humidité basé sur l’imagerie Térahertz. Il s’agit d’une technique de mesure relativement peu onéreuse et permettant de réaliser des mesures en régime transitoire. Un banc expérimental existant sera donc adapté à la mesure du champ d’humidité sur éprouvettes de bois en conditions thermo-hydriques variables, et sur éprouvettes de béton en situation de chauffage. Les résultats constitueront une base de données utile à la compréhension des phénomènes de dégradation des matériaux et seront directement utilisables comme outil de validation de modèles de calcul
The movement of moisture in the porous network of certain materials is very often at the origin of phenomena prejudicial to the durability of the constructions of the civil engineering. This is particularly the case for the drying of wood, which creates cracks and delaminations at bonding interfaces, and for concrete in situations of fire where the movement of moisture can induce irreversible disorders (chipping). The use of predictive models of structural ruin therefore requires the simulation of the moisture movement within the materials. These mass and heat transfer models are sophisticated and need to be confronted with measurements in order to be validated. Few experimental techniques exist to measure moisture movements or gradients in porous networks, especially in transient conditions (drying, fire). Existing techniques are often expensive and impose severe conditions of safety for the researchers. The objective of the thesis is therefore to develop a device for measuring gradients of moisture based on Terahertz imagery. This is a comparatively inexpensive measuring technique and makes it possible to carry out transient measurements. An existing experimental bench will therefore be adapted to the measurement of the moisture field on wood specimens under variable water-moisture conditions and on concrete specimens in a heating situation. The results will constitute a database useful for understanding the phenomena of degradation of materials and will be directly usable as a validation tool for calculation models

Abstract:
This research is about the usage of visual aids in education which takes place in teacher training colleges (TTCs) of Afghanistan. The data is collected from two TTCs, Kabul and Wardak provinces. It covers a specific area, which is the use of visual aids during teaching and learning. The views of 100 teachers regarding usage of visual aids, providing visual aids, as well as male and female differences are considered and views of experienced and less experienced teachers are investigated. The necessary data is collected by using questionnaires. The responses of teachers’ show, that all of them use visual aids. Some teachers use less and some of them use more visual aids during teaching and learning. All respondents believe on the importance of using visual aids. Also the result shows that male and female teachers use the visual aids but, with some differences, as it is clearly shown in the findings some use one type, but some use other types. Kabul TTC teachers use more visual aids than Wardak province TTC teachers. In addition to that the important finding is the differences between experienced and less experienced teachers, the junior teachers use more visual aids than senior or experienced ones. These findings would not be generalized for the whole country. But it could be considered for the central region of Afghanistan, because the two TTCs are located in the central region of Afghanistan.

Abstract:
Abstract This book chapter outlines the future steps in improving the status of the tropical tuber crops: (1) reduce the period of maturity of all the TTCs to 110-150 days, (2) improve the tuber shape and make them more definitive in shape, (3) improve plant architecture to attain a harvest index of 0.70, (4) eliminate antinutritional factors and improve nutritive values, (5) impart resistance to the three major biotic problems afflicting the TTCs: CMD (cassava mosaic disease), taro leaf blight and sweet potato weevil, (6) introduce determinacy in cassava and yams, (7) increase the post-harvest storage life, (8) reduce the loss during post-harvest storage, transportation and processing, (9) use biotechnological means to alter starch characteristics like amylose content, chain length and phosphorus content in starch, (10) it is also suggested that there should be a 'starch bank', which acts as a repository of different starches and provides information on all physicochemical and functional properties for various applications to researchers and industries, and (11) an organization to carry out exclusive research on tuber starches may be established in any of the TTC-growing countries.

Full text
Abstract:
For the last several years, the railroad industry has been developing various elements for typical Positive Train Control (PTC) systems and has been demonstrating their functionality. In order to test the capabilities of these systems, Transportation Technology Center, Inc. (TTCI), the industry, and Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) have guided and funded the development of the PTC Test Bed located at the Transportation Technology Center (TTC) in Pueblo, Colorado. Recent upgrades to the PTC Test Bed at TTC have enhanced the capabilities to support on-track testing of Interoperable Train Control (ITC aka I-ETMS®) system/subsystem functionality (including radio communications), interoperability, and performance/stress characterization. Now, onboard, wayside, and office additions have been made for the PTC Test Bed to support testing associated with Advanced Civil Speed Enforcement System (ACSES) II systems and equipment. In support of train control objectives, TTCI has also implemented a broken rail detection test bed, which has produced some interesting results.

Abstract:
The development of the conceptual design of the IFMIF Target and Test Cell (TTC) is briefly summarized by outlining the previous reference TTC design and the current Modular TTC (MTC) concept. Based on the MTC concept, the latest progresses of the preliminary engineering design of the key TTC components, including the TTC vessel, the Top Shielding Plugs (TSPs), the Removable Intermediate Ring (RIR), and the Test Module Interface Head (TMIH), are described. A specimen flow, based on handling requirements of the High Flux Test Module (HFTM), between the TTC, Access Cell (AC), Test Module Handling Cell (TMHC) and the Post Irradiation Examination (PIE) facilities is proposed as well as the function of the AC and TMHC is preliminary defined. The TMHC is proposed to be divided into a Component Handling Cell (CHC) and a Rig Handling Cell (RHC) regarding the dimension differences of the components to be handled inside of the cells. The recycling of the irradiated specimens for another campaign of irradiation is also considered in this specimen flow.

Full text
Abstract:
Context: The Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TTC) is an acute cardiac dysfunction, clinically similar to myocardial ischemia, more common in postmenopausal women and related to emotional stress. Case report: A 71-year-old female patient, with Alzheimer’s disease (AD), sought emergency care after severe chest pain. Electrocardiogram showed ST segment elevation in the anteroseptal wall. Physical exam: HR=108bpm, PA=126x78mmHg, SaO2=6%. Complementary exams showed a mild lesion in the middle third of the anterior descending artery, moderate impairment of left ventricular (LV) function by apical aneurysm without thrombi, mitral prolapse with mild reflux and an ejection fraction of 37%, suspecting of TTC. Conclusions: TTC is defined as a transient, usually reversible and segmental LV dysfunction, configuring a differential diagnosis of acute coronary syndrome. An overactivation of the sympathetic autonomic nervous system can cause catecholamine toxicity to the heart. Although several studies show a lower emotional response capacity in patients with cognitive impairment, more recent studies suggest that this emotional responsiveness is not so affected by dementia. Therefore, patients with AD may be susceptible to developing TTC, both because of the multiple drugs that they are exposed, increasing catecholamine levels, and because of the disease itself, that represents a stressful context. Thus, TTC is often associated with emotional stress and should not be overlooked in patients with AD.

Full text
Abstract:
The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted daily activities and travel patterns, affecting personal and commercial trips. This study investigates the effect of different stages of the pandemic on travel time patterns. Eighty-six geographically distributed links (sections of road) in Mecklenburg County and Buncombe County, North Carolina, were selected for analysis. The selected links accounted for the variation in road geometry, land use, and speed limit. Travel time data for three years (i.e., 2019, 2020, and 2021) were extracted from a private data source at 5-min intervals. Travel time reliability (TTR) and travel time variability (TTV) are estimated for different phases of the pandemic and compared to analyze the effect of COVID-19 on TTR and TTV. The seasonal arithmetic integrated moving average (SARIMA) model was developed to investigate the effect of COVID-19 on average daily travel time patterns. Unreliable and uncertain travel times were observed on lower speed limit links during the off-peak hours while reliable and certain travel times were observed during morning and evening peak hours of the COVID-19 pandemic. This highlights that the COVID-19 pandemic significantly affected the scheduling of trips. For higher speed limits, travel times were reliable and certain during off-peak and peak hours. Among the different phases of COVID-19, significant improvement in TTR and TTV was observed during Phase II, which could be attributed to stay-at-home directives. Trucks followed a similar pattern as passenger cars. Post-COVID-19, i.e., for 2021, travel times were reliable and certain for most links during the morning peak hours. The SARIMA model revealed a significant effect of COVID-19 on average daily travel time patterns. Stable travel time patterns were noted during Phase II of COVID-19. Moreover, a maximum reduction in travel time was observed during Phase II of the COVID-19 pandemic. The findings emphasize the influence of government norms and regulations on travel time patterns during pervasive events such as COVID-19.

Full text
Abstract:
We chose to focus our investigations on the effect of the active forms, TTF and AcA, rather than the whole (crude) extract. 1. To establish cultivation program designed to develop lead cultivar/s (which will be selected from the different Af accessions) with the highest yield of the active compounds TTF and/or achillolide A (AcA). These cultivar/s will be the source for the purification of large amounts of the active compounds when needed in the future for functional foods/drug development. This task was completed. 2. To determine the effect of the Af extract, TTF and AcA on neuronal vulnerability to oxidative stress in cultured neurons expressing FAD-linked mutants.Compounds were tested in N2a neuroblastoma cell line. In addition, we have tested the effects of TTF and AcA on signaling events promoted by H₂O₂ in astrocytes and by β-amyloid in neuronal N2a cells. 3. To determine the effect of the Af extract, TTF and AcA on neuropathology (amyloidosis and tau phosphorylation) in cultured neurons expressing FAD-linked mutants. 4. To determine the effect of A¦ extract, AcA and TTF on FAD-linked neuropathology (amyloidosis, tau phosphorylation and inflammation) in transgenic mice. 5. To examine whether A¦ extract, TTF and AcA can reverse behavioral deficits in APPswe/PS1DE9 mice, and affect learning and memory and cognitive performance in these FAD-linked transgenic mice. Background to the topic.Neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, glutamate toxicity and amyloid beta (Ab) toxicity are involved in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's diseases. We have previously purified from Achilleafragrantissimatwo active compounds: a protective flavonoid named 3,5,4’-trihydroxy-6,7,3’-trimethoxyflavone (TTF, Fl-72/2) and an anti-inflammatory sesquiterpenelactone named achillolide A (AcA). Major conclusions, solutions, achievements. In this study we could show that TTF and AcA protected cultured astrocytes from H₂O₂ –induced cell death via interference with cell signaling events. TTF inhibited SAPK/JNK, ERK1/2, MEK1 and CREBphosphorylation, while AcA inhibited only ERK1/2 and MEK1 phosphorylation. In addition to its protective activities, TTF had also anti-inflammatory activities, and inhibited the LPS-elicited secretion of the proinflammatorycytokinesInterleukin 6 (IL-6) and IL-1b from cultured microglial cells. Moreover, TTF and AcA protected neuronal cells from glutamate and Abcytotoxicity by reducing the glutamate and amyloid beta induced levels of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and via interference with cell signaling events induced by Ab. These compounds also reduced amyloid precursor protein net processing in vitro and in vivo in a mouse model for Alzheimer’s disease and improvedperformance in the novel object recognition learning and memory task. Conclusion: TTF and AcA are potential candidates to be developed as drugs or food additives to prevent, postpone or ameliorate Alzheimer’s disease. Implications, both scientific and agricultural.The synthesis ofAcA and TTF is very complicated. Thus, the plant itself will be the source for the isolation of these compounds or their precursors for synthesis. Therefore, Achilleafragrantissima could be developed into a new crop with industrial potential for the Arava-Negev area in Israel, and will generate more working places in this region.

Wang, Yong-Yi. PR-350-154501-R01 Evaluation of Girth Weld Flaws in Vintage Pipelines. Chantilly, Virginia: Pipeline Research Council International, Inc. (PRCI), June 2019. http://dx.doi.org/10.55274/r0011600.

Full text
Abstract:
Being able to estimate the tensile strain capacity (TSC) of vintage girth welds is sometimes necessary in the integrity management of vintage pipelines. For instance, assessing the girth weld integrity could be a top priority after a confirmed ground movement event. Decisions may also be needed about the disposition of a girth weld when weld anomalies are found. This project is aimed to develop a TSC estimation tool for vintage girth welds. The work includes two parts: (1) the development of a TSC estimation tool via numerical analysis and (2) the evaluation of the developed tool via experimental testing. This report covers both the development and evaluation of the TSC estimation tool. The tool was developed by taking the outcome of the case-specific TSC analysis using Level 4a procedures of the PRCI-CRES tensile strain models and considering large ranges of material and dimensional parameters. The curved wide plate (CWP) and accompanying small-scale tests were conducted to evaluate the tool. The applicability and limitations of the tool are covered in this report. The tool developed in this project has a user-friendly interface and an accompanying help manual. The tool takes user inputs, such as the geometry and material properties of pipe and weld, flaw dimensions, and pipeline pressure, and provides an estimated TSC. For the inputs that might not have readily available values, recommended values are provided. This tool allows the evaluation of the impact of various input parameters on TSC. The ability to estimate the TSC enables operators to assess the integrity of vintage girth welds, thus facilitating the prioritization of maintenance activities and reducing unnecessary remediation work.

Full text
Abstract:
Overview This is the third quarterly progress report for an ongoing living systematic review on cannabis and other plant-based treatments for chronic pain. The first progress report was published in January 2021 and the second in March 2021. The draft systematic review was available for public comment from May 19 through June 15, 2021, on the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) Effective Health Care website. The systematic review synthesizes evidence on the benefits and harms of plant-based compounds (PBCs), such as cannabinoids and kratom, used to treat chronic pain, addressing concerns about severe adverse effects, abuse, misuse, dependence, and addiction. The purpose of this progress report is to describe the cumulative literature identified thus far. This report will be periodically updated with new studies as they are published and identified, culminating in an annual systematic review that provides a synthesis of the accumulated evidence. Main Points In patients with chronic (mainly neuropathic) pain with short-term treatment (4 weeks to <6 months): • Studies of cannabis-related products were grouped based on their tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) to cannabidiol (CBD) ratio using the following categories: high THC to CBD, comparable THC to CBD, and low THC to CBD. • Comparable THC to CBD ratio oral spray is probably associated with small improvements in pain severity and may be associated with small improvements in function. There was no effect in pain interference or serious adverse events. There may be a large increased risk of dizziness and sedation, and a moderate increased risk of nausea. • Synthetic THC (high THC to CBD) may be associated with moderate improvement in pain severity and increased risk of sedation, and large increased risk of nausea. Synthetic THC is probably associated with a large increased risk of dizziness. • Extracted whole-plant high THC to CBD ratio products may be associated with large increases in risk of withdrawal due to adverse events and dizziness. • Evidence on whole-plant cannabis, low THC to CBD ratio products (topical CBD), other cannabinoids (cannabidivarin), and comparisons with other active interventions was insufficient to draw conclusions. • Other key adverse event outcomes (psychosis, cannabis use disorder, cognitive deficits) and outcomes on the impact on opioid use were not reported. • No evidence on other plant-based compounds, such as kratom, met criteria for this review.

Abstract:
Las Tecnologías de la Información y la Comunicación (TIC), hoy día hacen parte de la cotidianidad en el diario vivir del ser humano; éstas han atravesado todos los ámbitos, incluyendo los espacios educativos. Las TIC, en la actualidad son una herramienta clave en los distintos procesos educativos que desarrollan los docentes, pero en reiteradas oportunidades esta integración presenta falencias desde lo pedagógico, didáctico, de diseño instruccional y desde lo técnico (Martínez-Rodríguez, 2017). Surge entonces la pregunta: ¿Cómo integran las TIC los docentes de la Escuela Tecnológica Instituto Técnico Central, en sus prácticas educativas? Este proyecto de investigación pretende dar respuesta a esta pregunta, analizando el grado de integración que hacen los docentes de la Escuela Tecnológica Instituto Técnico Central, como alternativa de innovación en sus prácticas educativas, mediante la creación de nuevas didácticas, de estrategias pedagógicas innovadoras y en la búsqueda de proponer metodologías educativas que aseguren la eficacia y eficiencia en los procesos. Al final de este proyecto se espera contar con un informe sobre los recursos TIC que son usados por los docentes de la ETITC al interior de los procesos educativos que orientan, tanto en asignaturas teóricas, como en asignaturas prácticas, y categorizados por carrera y ciclo propedéutico. De igual forma se contará con un informe sobre el nivel de competencias TIC que poseen los docentes de la ETITC para el desarrollo profesional en las prácticas educativas tanto en asignaturas teóricas, como en asignaturas prácticas y categorizados por carrera y ciclo propedéutico. Así mismo se presentará un informe con las experiencias innovadoras desde lo pedagógico y didáctico frente a la integración de las TIC que realizan los docentes de la ETITC. Este proyecto de investigación es muy importante dado que permitirá establecer el nivel de competencias TIC que poseen los docentes de la ETITC para el desarrollo profesional en las prácticas educativas tanto en asignaturas teóricas, como en asignaturas prácticas, lo que permitirá dar a la dirección de la ETITC un informe respecto a lo que ocurre con las competencias TIC por parte de los docentes y los planes de acción que se deberían adoptar para mejorarlas o potenciarlas; este informe es clave en la medida que la dirección tendrá claridad respecto a los planes de capacitación en la temática TIC que debería seguir para mejorar la competencia TIC en los docentes.
