The developmental appropriateness of digital games and its impact on young children’s enjoyment and playtime

Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, the provision and downloading of educational apps for children have both increased. This paper reports the results of an extensive literature review of the age-rating systems of digital content (audiovisual and games) used around the world and demonstrates the weakness of those instruments that prove ineffective in choosing digital content for children. Age-rating systems are arbitrary and only focus on explicit content that is considered harmful to preschool children. The paper proposes an alternative model of app analysis based on child development. The main objective of the research is to determine the developmental appropriateness of apps for young children and its effects on children’s responses through a content analysis of 318 apps and a test of a subset of them (N=25) with a sample of 53 children aged 3–5. To this end, exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis is used to extract a composite index of the apps’ developmental appropriateness, which was used to specify a path analysis. The results show that developmental appropriateness is associated with the highest positive ratings by children and, indirectly, with play time.

Identifying Active Substances and the Pharmacological Mechanism of Houttuynia cordata Thunb. in Treating Radiation-Induced Lung Injury Based on Network Pharmacology and Molecular Docking Verification

Background Houttuynia cordata Thunb. is a traditional Chinese herb widely used mainly because of the pharmacological effects related to heat clearance and detoxification. Emerging clinical evidence indicates that the efficacy of Houttuynia cordata Thunb. on RILI is upstanding. Nevertheless, its underlying therapeutic mechanism remains unclear and warrants further elucidation. Methods The major active components and corresponding targets of Houttuynia cordata Thunb. were retrieved from the traditional Chinese medicine system pharmacology database (TCMSP) and literature review. The related targets of RILI were retrieved from the GeneCards database. Common targets among the active compounds and diseases were identified through Venn diagram analysis. Cytoscape was employed to construct and visualize the network relationship among the drug, active compounds, targets, and disease. The protein interaction network (PPI) was constructed by STRING. The reliability (the binding affinity) of the core targets and active compounds was verified by molecular docking. Results A search of the TCMSP database and related literature revealed 12 active compounds of Houttuynia cordata Thunb. against RILI. The core active compounds included quercetin, kaempferol, hyperoside, and rutin. Hub nodes including TP53, VEGFA, JUN, TNF, and IL-6 were identified in the PPI network. The GO categories were classified into three functional categories: 112 biological processes, 9 molecular functions, and 32 cellular components of the active compounds of Houttuynia cordata Thunb. The KEGG pathway enrichment analysis demonstrated the enrichment of target genes in several key cancer-related signaling pathways, including the cancer pathways, TNF signaling pathway, PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, and HIF-1 signaling pathway. Molecular docking analysis validated the effective binding capacity of the main active compounds with the core targets. Conclusion The main active components of Houttuynia cordata Thunb. have a potential pharmacological effect against RILI via the cancer pathways, TNF signaling pathway, and PI3K-Akt signaling pathway.

A systematic literature review of intrusion detection systems in the cloud‐basedIoTenvironments

AbstractAs the number of Internet of Things (IoT) subscribers, services, and applications grows, there is a pressing need for a reliable and lightweight security solution that can be used in IoT contexts. Also, due to the open nature of cloud computing, safety concerns are always challenging. One potential solution for this problem is an intrusion detection system (IDS). An ID that utilizes a machine learning method is gaining popularity since it has the benefit of automatically updating to fight against any new form of attack. Due to the importance of IDS in cloud‐based IoT, the main articles and essential techniques in this domain are examined systematically. In cloud‐based IoT, IDSs are categorized into three major categories, including learning‐based, pattern‐based, and rule‐based mechanisms. The findings illustrate that the biggest challenge in IDS is precision and detection, which many researchers are trying to improve. Also, with the rise of connected objects, the most frequently utilized centralized (cloud‐based) IDS struggles with excessive latency and network overhead, leading to delayed detection of unauthorized users and unresponsiveness to assaults. The results will be valuable for academicians, and they can offer visions for future research.

Thermal partial oxidation of n-butane in a micro-flow reactor and solid oxide fuel cell stability assessment

The direct use of n-butane in solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) systems has been challenging due to high performance degradation and/or failure due to carbon deposition on the anode. Previous works have explored SOFCs with expensive integrated catalysts to promote the longevity of the SOFC, but few have achieved significant operating hours. In this work, a SOFC with no integrated catalyst is fed n-butane for 288 h utilizing a novel micro fuel reformer. The impact of temperature (800–900 °C), total flow rate (10–50 mL.min−1), and equivalence ratio (1–5) on the thermal partial oxidation of n-butane in the micro-flow reactor are characterized. A literature review of n-butane fueled SOFC systems confirms that the 288-hour long term stability test achieved in this study is among the longest conducted with a low voltage degradation of 0.00034 V.h−1. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) images of the SOFC anode confirm no carbon deposition occurred on the surface. Microscale partial oxidation with light internal reforming provides an alternative to traditional catalytic oxidation and internal reforming SOFC systems.

Furthermore, the National Health Insurance claims and prescription data of individual hospitals were considered appropriate data sources for the surveillance system. As for the measures to promote the participation of hospitals in the benchmarking system, “compensation through the establishment of antimicrobial management fees” and “set the participation in the program as a quality evaluation or accreditation index for hospital evaluation” were accepted.ConclusionThis study provides a roadmap for establishing an antimicrobial use monitoring and benchmarking system for medical institutions at a national level in Korea.

A Literature Review of Drone-Based Package Delivery Logistics Systems and Their Implementation Feasibility

In recent years, e-commerce businesses have seen an increase in the daily volume of packages to be delivered, as well as an increase in the number of particularly demanding customer expectations. In this respect, the delivery mechanism became prohibitively expensive, particularly for the final kilometer. To stay competitive and meet the increased demand, businesses began to look for innovative autonomous delivery options for the last mile, such as autonomous unmanned aerial vehicles/drones, which are a promising alternative for the logistics industry. Following the success of drones in surveillance and remote sensing, drone delivery systems have begun to emerge as a new solution to reduce delivery costs and delivery time. In the coming years, autonomous drone sharing systems will be an unavoidable logistical solution, especially with the new laws/recommendations introduced by the Flight World Organization on how to organize the operations of these special unmanned airline systems. This paper provides a comprehensive literature survey on a set of relevant research issues and highlights the representative solutions and concepts that have been proposed thus far in the design and modeling of the logistics of drone delivery systems, with the purpose of discussing the respective performance levels reached by the various suggested approaches. Furthermore, the paper also investigates the central problems to be addressed and briefly discusses and outlines a series of interesting new research avenues of relevance for drone-based package delivery systems.

Modern View on the Problem of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus with and without Comorbid Lesions of the Circulatory System (Literature Review, Clinical Case Description) – Second Notice

Introduction. The prevalence and incidence of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in the world is significant. In recent years, there has been a tendency of the SLE prevalence increase. Despite the undoubted progress in understanding the etiology and pathogenesis of SLE, its diagnosis and treatment, the mortality of patients, including ones at young and working age, is higher than in the general population, and circulatory system lesions are ones of its main reasons in these cases. The aim of the study. To analyze the literature, devoted to the modern view on the problem of systemic lupus erythematosus with and without comorbid lesions of the circulatory system, describe the clinical case. Materials and methods. Content analysis, method of system and comparative analysis, bibliosemantic method of studying the current scientific studies on modern principles of diagnosis and treatment of patients with SLE are used. A clinical case is described. Results. A clinical case of a 43-year-old patient S., who was hospitalized for SLE, she considers herself ill for eighteen years and she has been constantly taken outpatient and periodically inpatient treatment due to the frequent deteriorations in her general condition, clinical and laboratory parameters, is described. Based on the received results of the examinations, applying the method of determining the functional class of SLE, the patient was diagnosed with a clinical diagnosis indicating comorbid lesions of various organs and systems (skin, joints, kidneys, vessels, heart, blood system, immune system, eyes). The generally accepted basic medical complex of the patient includes drugs, taking into account the lesions to the circulatory system. The conducted complex pathogenetic treatment gave a positive result. Conclusions. In the described clinical case demonstrated the development of comorbid lesions of many organs and systems, including circulatory system, in a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus. Inclusion in the treatment complex in addition to basic and drugs for the treatment lesions of circulatory system has improved the general condition of the patient, stabilized clinical and laboratory parameters, as evidenced by a prospective study during three years. The information provided in our clinical case is consistent with the results of the literature review. Systemic lupus erythematosus needs further in-depth study due to its widespread prevalence among young and people of working age, lack of accurate knowledge about the etiology and pathogenesis of the disease, comorbid lesions of many organs and systems, including circulatory system, the development of severe and often life-threatening manifestations, the lack of clear recommendations that would predict the differentiated use of drugs taking into account comorbid syntropic lesions. Keywords: SLE, circulatory system lesions, atherosclerosis, diagnosis and treatment of SLE.

A Literature Review of Wetland Treatment Systems Used to Treat Runoff Mixtures Containing Antibiotics and Pesticides from Urban and Agricultural Landscapes

Wetland treatment systems are used extensively across the world to mitigate surface runoff. While wetland treatment for nitrogen mitigation has been comprehensively reviewed, the implications of common-use pesticides and antibiotics on nitrogen reduction remain relatively unreviewed. Therefore, this review seeks to comprehensively assess the removal of commonly used pesticides and antibiotics and their implications for nitrogen removal in wetland treatment systems receiving non-point source runoff from urban and agricultural landscapes. A total of 181 primary studies were identified spanning 37 countries. Most of the reviewed publications studied pesticides (n = 153) entering wetlands systems, while antibiotics (n = 29) had fewer publications. Even fewer publications reviewed the impact of influent mixtures on nitrogen removal processes in wetlands (n = 16). Removal efficiencies for antibiotics (35–100%), pesticides (−619–100%), and nitrate-nitrogen (−113–100%) varied widely across the studies, with pesticides and antibiotics impacting microbial communities, the presence and type of vegetation, timing, and hydrology in wetland ecosystems. However, implications for the nitrogen cycle were dependent on the specific emerging contaminant present. A significant knowledge gap remains in how wetland treatment systems are used to treat non-point source mixtures that contain nutrients, pesticides, and antibiotics, resulting in an unknown regarding nitrogen removal efficiency as runoff contaminant mixtures evolve.

A survey of recommender systems with multi-objective optimization

Recommender systems have been widely applied to several domains and applications to assist decision making by recommending items tailored to user preferences. One of the popular recommendation algorithms is the model-based approach which optimizes a specific objective to improve the recommendation performance. These traditional recommendation models usually deal with a single objective, such as minimizing the prediction errors or maximizing the ranking quality of the recommendations. In recent years, there is an emerging demand for multi-objective recommender systems in which multiple objectives are considered and the recommendations can be optimized by the multi-objective optimization. For example, a recommendation model may be built by optimizing multiple metrics, such as accuracy, novelty and diversity of the recommendations. The multi-objective optimization methodologies have been well developed and applied to the area of recommender systems. In this article, we provide a comprehensive literature review of the multi-objective recommender systems. Particularly, we identify the circumstances in which a multi-objective recommender system could be useful, summarize the methodologies and evaluation approaches in these systems, point out existing challenges or weaknesses, finally provide the guidelines and suggestions for the development of multi-objective recommender systems.

A systematic literature review on the current detection tools for authentication analysis of cosmetic ingredients.

The use of cosmetic products is considered a necessity for beautification in our daily lives. Cosmetic products composed of natural oils or fats as a main ingredient for various beneficial properties. Fats and oils are composed of various type of fatty acids with different compositions. Hence, fatty acids profile can be an effective chemical fingerprint for authentication analysis of cosmetic products. This systematic review aims to enlighten the current detection tools developing for fatty acids profile authentication analyses of cosmetic ingredients based on the effectiveness, halal status, safety, advantages and disadvantages of the methods. The data were extracted from the scientific literatures published between October 2015 and 2020 in the Web of Science, Scopus and Google Scholar databases, and analyzed with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). Based on the systemic literature reviews, essential oil, argan oil, mineral oil, vegetable oil, and jojoba oil were among the mostly studied ingredients in cosmetics. Furthermore, a combination of more than one analytical instrument was utilized to profile fatty acids while the determination of the origin of the fatty acids is under scrutiny. The portable mass spectrometer combined with a direct inlet membrane (DIM) probe seems to be the best tool in terms of time consumption, cost, requires no sample preparation with high efficiency. The current review showed that the best cosmetic base is when the oil is composed of high concentration of fatty acids such as linoleic, oleic, stearic acid, and palmitic acids with concentration range from 19.7 - 46.30%, which offers various beneficial properties to cosmetic products.

Descriptive literature review of human resource information systems (HRIS) adoption issues in the health sector, South Africa

No organisation is ever static. For several reasons, each organisation reviews its aims and objectives from time to time. These reasons may be internally or externally driven. They could also be politically, economically and or socially motivated. Research has established that most of the attempts at bringing about change are based on the needs of employees and customers. Essentially, for the purposes of better management of employees and customers, human resource information systems (HRIS) are touted as the panacea for effective and efficient health sector service delivery. Focusing on South Africa, this paper used the descriptive literature review method to determine HRIS adoption issues within the health sector of South Africa. As an important sector in any growing economy, the health sector in our view benefits from a constant review of its mission. Within the context of South Africa, substantial emphasis is yet to be placed on health sector effectiveness. Elsewhere, in other regions and continents, research on HRIS adoption within the health sector suggests that its adoption is problematic but useful. The South African health sector is yet to fully embrace this technology and as a result is suffering from employee dissatisfaction, brain drain, and general maladministration. Investment in HRIS research is therefore instructive especially within the context of South Africa. What we have found through this review is that investing in HRIS is crucial; however, it requires thorough consideration for its funding, infrastructural support, and skilled manpower among others.
