    Abstract Biopolymers have recently shown great potential to replace traditional binding materials in geotechnical engineering; however, more research is required to reach a deeper understanding of biopolymer-treated soil behavior. The objective of this study was to investigate the most important parameters that affect the behavior of biopolymer-treated soil, including biopolymer content, dehydration time, soil type effect, and durability. Sodium alginate and agar biopolymers were used due to their stability under severe conditions and the reasonable costs to study these parameters. A broad range of soil particle sizes was used to optimize the kaolinite-sand combination. As one of the main concerns in the behavior of biotreated soils, durability was investigated under five cycles of wetting and drying. In addition, a comprehensive microstructural study was performed by FTIR analysis and SEM images, as well as chemical interaction analysis. The results indicated that the optimized biopolymer content was in the range of 0.5-1% (to soil weight) and the dehydration time was 14 days. A soil combination of 25% kaolinite and 75% sand provided the highest compressive strength. Under wetting and drying conditions, biopolymers significantly increased soil resistance against strength reduction and soil mass loss. This study provides an understanding how agar and sodium alginate changes the behavior of the soil and can be used as a reference for further studies in the future.

    Abstract Large areas of estuarine deposits exist on the coastal plains of the southeast Queensland coast with a countered depth of up to 30 m. These deposits are categorized as sediments that originated during the Holocene Age. The sediments have not been consolidated or subjected to considerable pressure since the end of the Ice Age. The structure of these deposits consists of large ratios of porosity, causing high soil compressibility, which lowers the bearing capacity of the soils. Therefore, the soils of the region cannot maintain sufficient support for construction loads, and consequent malfunctions could occur in short-term and long-term periods. The objective of this paper is to investigate the suitability of new soil stabilization additives in the southeast Queensland region and the optimum additive content of cementitious materials and an advanced mixing modifier branded as DuraCrete. A combination of Portland cement and DuraCrete was used as a soil additive. Three DuraCrete-to-cement ratios were used: 2%, 3%, and 4% by weight. Soil collected from the Port of Brisbane region was treated by adding the additives as a percentage of its weight; four percentages were considered: 10%, 20%, 25%, and 30% for each combination of additives. The performance of the treated soils was examined under unconfined compression after 28 days of curing. The results revealed that increases in the unconfined compressive strength were detected as DuraCrete was added to the mixtures. For 30% additives, increases of about 15%, 34%, and 17% were detected when DuraCrete was added as 2%, 3%, and 4%, respectively. The results also revealed that 3% DuraCrete content provided significant stabilization compared to 2% and 4% for 25% and 30% additive-treated soils; such behavior was also observed for the specimens of 25% content of additives. Additionally, DuraCrete can be considered a promising material that can be combined with cement to obtain the desired stabilization of soft soils.

    Abstract Osteoporosis is a complex endocrine disease characterized by a decline in bone mass and microstructural integrity. It constitutes a major global health problem. Recent progress in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) has opened new avenues for the effective diagnosis of osteoporosis via radiographs. This review investigates the application of AI classification of osteoporosis in radiographs. A comprehensive exploration of electronic repositories (ClinicalTrials.gov, Web of Science, PubMed, MEDLINE) was carried out in adherence to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses 2020 statement (PRISMA). A collection of 31 articles was extracted from these repositories and their significant outcomes were consolidated and outlined. This encompassed insights into anatomical regions, the specific machine learning methods employed, the effectiveness in predicting BMD, and categorizing osteoporosis. Through analyzing the respective studies, we evaluated the effectiveness and limitations of AI osteoporosis classification in radiographs. The pooled reported accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity of osteoporosis classification ranges from 66.1% to 97.9%, 67.4% to 100.0%, and 60.0% to 97.5% respectively. This review underscores the potential of AI osteoporosis classification and offers valuable insights for future research endeavors, which should focus on addressing the challenges in technical and clinical integration to facilitate practical implementation of this technology.

    Abstract Although it can be lethal in its advanced stage, prostate cancer can be effectively treated when it is localised. Traditionally, radical prostatectomy (RP) or radiotherapy (RT) were used to treat all men with localised prostate cancer; however, this has significant risks of post-treatment side effects. Focal therapy has emerged as a potential form of treatment that can achieve similar oncological outcomes to radical treatment while preserving functional outcomes and decreasing rates of adverse effects. Irreversible electroporation (IRE) is one such form of focal therapy which utilises pulsatile electrical currents to ablate tissue. This modality of treatment is still in an early research phase, with studies showing that IRE is a safe procedure that can offer good short-term oncological outcomes whilst carrying a lower risk of poor functional outcomes. We believe that based on these results, future well-designed clinical trials are warranted to truly assess its efficacy in treating men with localised prostate cancer.
