    Abstract Current advancements in neuromorphic computing systems are focused on decreasing power consumption and enriching computational functions. Correspondingly, state-of-the-art system-on-chip developers are encouraged to design nanoscale devices with minimum power dissipation and high-speed operation. This paper deals with designing a sense amplifier based on side-contacted field-effect diodes to reduce the power-delay product (PDP) and the noise susceptibility, as critical factors in neuron circuits. Our findings reveal that both static and dynamic power consumption of the S-FED-based sense amplifier, equal to 1.86 μW and 1.92 fW/GHz, are × 243.03 and × 332.83 lower than those of the conventional CMOS counterpart, respectively. While the sense-amplifier circuit based on CMOS technology undergoes an output voltage deviation of 170.97 mV, the proposed S-FED-based one enjoys a minor output deviation of 27.31 mV. Meanwhile, the superior HIGH-level and LOW-level noise margins of the S-FED-based sense amplifier to the CMOS counterparts (∆NM

    Abstract: ... liver transplantation (LT).: Methods: We surveyed loneliness in ambulatory ESLD adults awaiting LT at 7 U.S. sites ...

    Abstract Introduction: Loneliness, "a subjective feeling of being isolated", is a strong predictor of adverse health. We characterized loneliness in patients with end-stage liver disease (ESLD) awaiting liver transplantation (LT).
    Methods: We surveyed loneliness in ambulatory ESLD adults awaiting LT at 7 U.S. sites using the validated UCLA Three-Item Loneliness Scale, May2020-Jan2021; "lonely"=total ≥5. Liver Frailty Index (LFI) assessed frailty; "frail"=LFI≥4.4. Logistic regression associated loneliness and co-variables.
    Results: Of 454 participants, median MELDNa was 14 (IQR 10-19) and 26% met criteria for "lonely". Compared to those not lonely, those lonely were younger (57 v. 61y), more likely to be female (48% v. 31%) or frail (21 v. 11%), and less likely to be working (15% v. 26%) or in a committed partnership (52% v. 71%). After multivariable adjustment, frailty (OR=2.24, 95%CI=1.23-4.08), younger age (OR=1.19, 95%CI=1.07-1.34), female sex (OR=1.83, 95%CI=1.14-2.92), not working (OR=2.16, 95%CI=1.16-4.03), and not in a committed partnership (OR=2.07, 95%CI=1.29-3.32) remained significantly associated with higher odds of loneliness.
    Conclusion: Loneliness is prevalent in adults awaiting LT, and independently associated with younger age, female sex and physical frailty. These data lay the foundation to investigate the extent to which loneliness impacts health outcomes in LT, as in the general population.

    A Long Step towards Environmental Sustainability and Community Welfare

    2023  Volume 1238

    Abstract: ... from Sabang in Aceh to Merauke in Papua. Although occupying only 1.3% of the world’s land area, Indonesia ...

    Abstract Indonesia is the largest archipelagic country in the world, with 17,000 islands of varying sizes and elevations, from lowlands to very high mountains, stretching more than 5000 km eastward from Sabang in Aceh to Merauke in Papua. Although occupying only 1.3% of the world’s land area, Indonesia possesses the third-largest rainforest and the second-highest level of biodiversity, with very high species diversity and endemism. However, during the last two decades, Indonesia has been known as a country with a high level of deforestation, a producer of smoke from burning forests and land, and a producer of carbon emissions. The aim of this paper is to review the environmental history and the long process of Indonesian forest management towards achieving environmental sustainability and community welfare. To do this, we analyze the milestones of Indonesian forest management history, present and future challenges, and provide strategic recommendations toward a viable Sustainable Forest Management (SFM) system. Our review showed that the history of forestry management in Indonesia has evolved through a long process, especially related to contestation over the control of natural resources and supporting policies and regulations. During the process, many efforts have been applied to reduce the deforestation rate, such as a moratorium on permitting primary natural forest and peat land, land rehabilitation and soil conservation, environmental protection, and other significant regulations. Therefore, these efforts should be maintained and improved continuously in the future due to their significant positive impacts on a variety of forest areas toward the achievement of viable SFM. Finally, we conclude that the Indonesian government has struggled to formulate sustainable forest management policies that balance economic, ecological, and social needs, among others, through developing and implementing social forestry instruments, developing and implementing human resource capacity, increasing community literacy, strengthening ...

    Abstract Establishing mineral dust impacts on Earth’s systems requires numerical models of the dust cycle. Differences between dust optical depth (DOD) measurements and dust cycle model simulations indicate large model uncertainty due partially to unrealistic model assumptions about dust emission frequency. Calibrating dust cycle models to DOD measurements typically in North Africa, are routinely used to reduce dust model magnitude. This calibration forces modelled dust emissions to match atmospheric DOD, but may hide the correct magnitude and frequency of dust emission events at source compensating biases in other modelled processes of the dust cycle. Therefore, it is essential to improve physically-based dust emission modules. Here we use a global collation of satellite observations from previous studies of dust emission point source (DPS) dichotomous frequency data. We show that these DPS data have little-to-no relation with MODIS DOD frequency. We then calibrate the albedo-based dust emission model using the frequency distribution of those DPS data. The global dust emission uncertainty constrained by DPS data (±3.8 kg m-2 y-1) provides a benchmark for dust emission model development. Our calibrated model results reveal much less global dust emission (29.1±14.9 Tg y-1) than previous estimates, and show seasonally shifting dust emission predominance within and between hemispheres, opposite to a persistent North African dust emission primacy widely interpre

    Abstract: ... aspiration using the S-Monovette® blood collection system as compared to BD-Vacutainer. ...

    Abstract Background: Blood sample hemolysis continues to be a significant problem in clinical practice.
    Methods: This was a prospective randomised controlled study conducted in an Emergency department (ED). A convenience sample of 191 adult patients, aged 18-90 years old, presenting at the ED and requiring blood samples for serum electrolyte was included in the study. Paired blood samples were obtained through an intravenous cannula from each patient with randomised order of blood draw using SMA or BDV. Patient data was obtained and hemolysis index (HI), serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and serum potassium (K) levels measured.
    Results: The adjusted mean HI (35.2 vs 21.5 mg/dL, p < 0.001), serum K (4.38 vs 4.16 mmol/L, p < 0.001) and LDH levels (259.6 vs 228.4 U/L, p < 0.001) were significantly higher in blood samples taken using BDV compared to SMA. The frequency of severely hemolyzed (>150 mg/dL) samples was also higher in blood collected using BDV (16.2%) compared to SMA (0%).
    Conclusions: The burden of hemolysis in blood samples taken from IV cannulae can be effectively reduced with the use of manual aspiration using the S-Monovette® blood collection system as compared to BD-Vacutainer.

    Abstract Relative energy deficiency in sport (RED-S), which underpins the concept of low energy availability (LEA), can negatively affect athletes' health and performance. This study aims to investigate the prevalence of RED-S among national athletes in Malaysia. A total of 192 national athletes (97 males, 18-39 years old) responded to an online survey regarding the RED-S risk. Most athletes (67.2%) were classified as having a medium/high RED-S risk. Female (41.2%), weight-class (23.9%), and intermittent sports (20.3%) had the highest prevalence of medium/high RED-S risk. Overall, most athletes spent 2-5 h daily (55.2%) and 6-7 days weekly (53.6%) practicing or playing their sport, and 47.9% reported feeling tired recently. The athletes were also terrified of being overweight (61.5%), worried about what they eat (64.7%), concerned about having fat on their bodies (62.6%), and thinking about burning calories while exercising (69.3%). Only 16.7% of the athletes had a prior history of stress fractures, and 40.6% continued to participate in activities 6-7 days per week while injured. The majority of female athletes (88.3%) had regular menstrual cycles. These findings support the notion that RED-S screening should be addressed in the athletic community. Future research is needed to clinically assess these athletes and investigate the impacts of RED-S on their health and sports performance.
