    Abstract The ability to translate a single genome into multiple phenotypes, or developmental plasticity, defines how phenotype derives from more than just genes. However, to study the evolutionary targets of plasticity and their evolutionary fates, we need to understand how genetic regulators of plasticity control downstream gene expression. Here, we have identified a transcriptional response specific to polyphenism (i.e., discrete plasticity) in the nematode Pristionchus pacificus. This species produces alternative resource-use morphs-microbivorous and predatory forms, differing in the form of their teeth, a morphological novelty-as influenced by resource availability. Transcriptional profiles common to multiple polyphenism-controlling genes in P. pacificus reveal a suite of environmentally sensitive loci, or ultimate target genes, that make up an induced developmental response. Additionally, in vitro assays show that one polyphenism regulator, the nuclear receptor NHR-40, physically binds to promoters with putative HNF4α (the nuclear receptor class including NHR-40) binding sites, suggesting this receptor may directly regulate genes that describe alternative morphs. Among differentially expressed genes were morph-limited genes, highlighting factors with putative "on-off" function in plasticity regulation. Further, predatory morph-biased genes included candidates-namely, all four P. pacificus homologs of Hsp70, which have HNF4α motifs-whose natural variation in expression matches phenotypic differences among P. pacificus wild isolates. In summary, our study links polyphenism regulatory loci to the transcription producing alternative forms of a morphological novelty. Consequently, our findings establish a platform for determining how specific regulators of morph-biased genes may influence selection on plastic phenotypes.

    Abstract Within 8 months, 3 children from 1 family in northern Vietnam died from melioidosis. Burkholderia pseudomallei of the same sequence type, 541, was isolated from clinical samples, borehole water, and garden and rice field soil. Boreholes should be properly constructed and maintained to avoid B. pseudomallei contamination.

    Abstract An increasing interest in nanocomposites prepared from agricultural/industrial byproducts has been paid for environmental remediation, especially in water treatment. This study reports the facile preparation of a low-cost magnetic biocomposite of magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) incorporated with biopolymers extracted from durian husk, called bp-Fe3O4 and examined in the removal of methylene blue (MB) dye. Here, Fe2O3 NPs were first recovered from red mud waste and then converted to magnetic nanostructured Fe3O4 using a one-pot process via carbon combustion. The bp-Fe3O4 inherited the characteristics of each constituent component, while showing slightly higher saturation magnetization than the bare Fe3O4 NPs (19.84 and 18.66 emu/g, respectively), allowing for easy separation from the aqueous solution using a suitable magnet. The MB adsorption on bp-Fe3O4 reached an equilibrium state within 60 min reaction and achieved >90% of removal (at 50 mg/L MB) at an optimal pH range of 6–8. The effective adsorption of MB dye was attributed to both the hydroxylated-Fe3O4 NPs and biopolymers. The material showed excellent reusability tested up to the seventh MB adsorption cycle (decreased by <2% of adsorption efficiency). Overall, the outstanding magnetic properties and low-cost bp-Fe3O4 rendered them easily manipulated and separated, and reusable for water/wastewater treatment of MB dye. HIGHLIGHTS Magnetic biopolymer@Fe3O4 was successfully prepared from red mud and durian husk.; Magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles were prepared using a one-pot carbon combustion.; Good magnetic properties render them easily separated using a suitable magnet.; Fast and effective removal of methylene blue (MB) on the biopolymer@Fe3O4 at pH 7.; Good reusability of the biopolymer@Fe3O4 during 7 runs of MB adsorption–desorption.;

    Abstract In recent years, artificial intelligence has played an important role in medicine and disease diagnosis, with many applications to be mentioned, one of which is Medical Visual Question Answering (MedVQA). By combining computer vision and natural language processing, MedVQA systems can assist experts in extracting relevant information from medical image based on a given question and providing precise diagnostic answers. The ImageCLEFmed-MEDVQA-GI-2023 challenge carried out visual question answering task in the gastrointestinal domain, which includes gastroscopy and colonoscopy images. Our team approached Task 1 of the challenge by proposing a multimodal learning method with image enhancement to improve the VQA performance on gastrointestinal images. The multimodal architecture is set up with BERT encoder and different pre-trained vision models based on convolutional neural network (CNN) and Transformer architecture for features extraction from question and endoscopy image. The result of this study highlights the dominance of Transformer-based vision models over the CNNs and demonstrates the effectiveness of the image enhancement process, with six out of the eight vision models achieving better F1-Score. Our best method, which takes advantages of BERT+BEiT fusion and image enhancement, achieves up to 87.25% accuracy and 91.85% F1-Score on the development test set, while also producing good result on the private test set with accuracy of 82.01%.

    Abstract Low-cost adsorbents derived from agricultural by-products incorporated magnetic nanoparticles (NPs) are promising for wastewater treatment. They are always preferred due to their great performance and easy separation. This study reports cobalt superparamagnetic (CoFe₂O₄) nanoparticles (NPs) incorporated with triethanolamine (TEA) based surfactants from cashew nut shell liquid, namely TEA-CoFe₂O₄, for the removal of chromium (VI) ions from aqueous solutions. To have detailed characteristics of the morphology and structural properties, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM) were employed. The fabricated TEA-CoFe₂O₄ particles exhibit soft and superparamagnetic properties, which make the nanoparticles easily recycled by using a magnet. Chromate adsorption on the TEA-CoFe₂O₄ nanomaterials reached an optimal efficiency of 84.3% at pH = 3 with the initial adsorbent dose of 10 g/L and chromium (VI) concentration of 40 mg/L. The TEA-CoFe₂O₄ nanoparticles can maintain the effective adsorption of chromium (VI) ion (by 29% of efficiency loss) and retain the magnetic separation using a magnet up to three cycles of the regeneration, which promise a high potential of this low-cost adsorbent for long-term treatment of heavy metal ions from polluted waters.

    Abstract Introduction: The outbreak of coronavirus severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV2) had significant effects on the mental well-being in general, particularly for healthcare professionals. This study examined the prevalence of depression, anxiety, and stress, and identified the associated risk factors amongst healthcare workers during the COVID-19 outbreak in a tertiary hospital located in Vietnam.
    Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study at a tertiary-level hospital, where the Depression Anxiety and Stress Scale 21 (DASS-21) web-based questionnaire was employed. We analyzed the determinant factors by employing multivariate logistic models.
    Results: The prevalence of depression, anxiety, and stress symptoms were 19.2%, 24.7%, and 13.9%, respectively. Factors such as engaging in shift work during the pandemic, taking care of patients with COVID-19, and staff's health status were associated with mental health issues among health professionals. In addition, having alternate rest periods was likely to reduce the risk of stress.
    Conclusion: The prevalence of mental health problems in healthcare workers during the COVID-19 pandemic was relatively high. Having resting periods could potentially mitigate the development of stress among health professionals. Our findings could be taken into account for improving mental health of the health professional population.
