Fulltext Resonator-Inspired Metamaterial Sensor: Design and Experimental Validation for Measuring Thickness of Multi-Layered Structures

Islam MT, Rahman MN, Samsuzzaman M, Mansor MF, Misran N

Sensors (Basel), 2018 Dec 01;18(12).
PMID: 30513712 DOI: 10.3390/s18124213

A digit 8-shaped resonator inspired metamaterial is proposed herein for sensor applications. The resonator is surrounded by a ground frame and excited by a microstrip feedline. The measurement of the sensor can be performed using common laboratory facilities in lieu of using the waveguide, as the resonator, ground frame, and feedline are all on the same microstrip. To achieve metamaterial properties, more than one unit cell is usually utilized, whereas, in this work, a single cell was used to achieve the metamaterial characteristics. The properties of the metamaterial were investigated to find the relationship between the simulation and measurements. The proposed metamaterial sensor shows considerable sensitivity in sensor application. For the sensor application, FR4 and Rogers RO4350 materials were used as the over-layer. The sensor can measure dielectric thickness with a sensitivity of 625 MHz/mm, 468 MHz/mm, and 354 MHz/mm for the single over-layer, double over-layers, and multiple over-layers, respectively. The proposed prototype can be utilized in several applications where metamaterial characteristics are required.

Alhajj MN, Mashyakhy M, Ariffin Z, Ab-Ghani Z, Johari Y, Salim NS

J Contemp Dent Pract, 2020 Sep 01;21(9):956-960.
PMID: 33568578

AIM: This study aimed to assess the quality and readability of the available health information on the net regarding denture hygiene.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Three search engines (Google, Yahoo!, and Bing) were searched. The first 20 consecutive websites from each engine were obtained and checked for eligibility. For the quality of the websites, the Health on the Net Foundation Code of Conduct (HONcode), the DISCERN tool, the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) Benchmarks, and Google PageRank were used for the assessment of the included websites. For readability, an online web tool was used, including well-known analyzing indices [Flesch Kincaid grade level (FKGL), Simple Measure of Gobbledygook (SMOG), and Flesch Reading Ease (FRE)]. The acceptable readability level was set to be ≥80.0 for the FRE and <7 for the FKGL and SMOG. The data were presented in frequencies and percentages.
RESULTS: Out of the 60 screened websites, 14 websites were eligible for analysis. There was only one (7.1%) website that had the HONcode seal. The mean score of all websites based on the DISCERN tool was 29.6 ± 12.1, with no website achieved the high score (≥65). Only one (7.1%) website scored >5 based on Google PageRank. Regarding JAMA benchmarks, all websites achieved a mean score of 2.57 ± 1.1. The mean grade level based on the FKGL was 8.4 ± 6.3. All websites had a score of <7 according to the SMOG index. The mean score of the readability ease index was 90.5 ± 16.4.
CONCLUSION: Most of the dental health information on denture hygiene available on the Arabic websites did not have the required level of quality, regardless of being readable and comprehensible by most of the general people.
CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Directing the patients to the appropriate websites related to their cases is the responsibility of the dentists.

Fulltext Performance and eye movement patterns of industrial design students reading sustainable design articles

Mao Y, Han Y, Li P, Si C, Wu D

Sci Rep, 2024 Jul 15;14(1):16267.
PMID: 39009746 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-67223-2

Sustainable design education plays a crucial role in cultivating sustainability awareness and competencies among students studying industrial design. This research investigates their sustainability levels, reading performance when engaging with articles, and fixation patterns during reading. 60 industrial design students participated in the study. We evaluated their sustainability levels using the Sustainable Consumption Measurement Scale. After reading both theoretical and case article, they completed tests assessing their recall and perspective scores. We collected eye-tracking data to analyze fixation duration and conducted lag sequential analysis on fixation transitions. Students were categorized into higher and lower sustainability groups based on their sustainability scores. Female students demonstrated higher sustainability levels, and students with design experience performed better in the higher sustainability group. While recall scores did not differ significantly, the higher sustainability group exhibited elevated perspective scores in theory article. Perspective scores were generally higher for case article compared to theory article. The higher sustainability group exhibited longer fixation durations in theory article, while the case article had longer fixation durations on images. Fixation transition patterns varied between theoretical and case article, with the former featuring transitions from images to texts, and the latter demonstrating transitions between images. This study provides valuable insights into sustainable design education for students studying industrial design.

Development and validation of a reading-related assessment battery in Malay for the purpose of dyslexia assessment

Lee LW

Ann Dyslexia, 2008 Jun;58(1):37-57.
PMID: 18293088 DOI: 10.1007/s11881-007-0011-0

Malay is an alphabetic language with transparent orthography. A Malay reading-related assessment battery which was conceptualised based on the International Dyslexia Association definition of dyslexia was developed and validated for the purpose of dyslexia assessment. The battery consisted of ten tests: Letter Naming, Word Reading, Non-word Reading, Spelling, Passage Reading, Reading Comprehension, Listening Comprehension, Elision, Rapid Letter Naming and Digit Span. Content validity was established by expert judgment. Concurrent validity was obtained using the schools' language tests as criterion. Evidence of predictive and construct validity was obtained through regression analyses and factor analyses. Phonological awareness was the most significant predictor of word-level literacy skills in Malay, with rapid naming making independent secondary contributions. Decoding and listening comprehension made separate contributions to reading comprehension, with decoding as the more prominent predictor. Factor analysis revealed four factors: phonological decoding, phonological naming, comprehension and verbal short-term memory. In conclusion, despite differences in orthography, there are striking similarities in the theoretical constructs of reading-related tasks in Malay and in English.

The effects of gender and academic achievement on reading fluency among Year 2 Malaysian school children

Abd Ghani A, Muslim NH, Zakaria MN

Int J Pediatr Otorhinolaryngol, 2020 May;132:109907.
PMID: 32018165 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijporl.2020.109907

OBJECTIVE: Language disorders can affect reading skills contributing to poor academic achievements. As such, it is vital for speech language pathologists to identify the potential language-based reading problems among children. To achieve this, specific reading assessments should be developed and studied. Thus, the present study aimed to determine the effects of gender and academic achievement on oral reading fluency (ORF) and silent reading fluency (SRF) among Year 2 Malaysian children.
METHODS: In this study that employed a comparative design, fifty-nine typically developing Malaysian children (24 boys, aged from 8 years, 0 months to 8 years, 11 months) were enrolled. They were chosen from three different classrooms (consisting of high achieving, medium achieving and low achieving students, respectively) in a primary school. Their ORF and SRF skills were assessed according to the established methods.
RESULTS: As revealed by two-way ANOVA results, both ORF and SRF scores were found to be comparable between boys and girls (p > 0.05). In contrast, ORF and SRF results between the three classrooms were significantly different from each other (p

Unearth of small open reading frames (sORFs) in drought stress transcriptome of Oryza sativa subsp. indica

Ong SN, Tan BC, Hanada K, Teo CH

Gene, 2023 Aug 20;878:147579.
PMID: 37336274 DOI: 10.1016/j.gene.2023.147579

Drought is a major abiotic stress that influences rice production. Although the transcriptomic data of rice against drought is widely available, the regulation of small open reading frames (sORFs) in response to drought stress in rice is yet to be investigated. Different levels of drought stress have different regulatory mechanisms in plants. In this study, drought stress was imposed on four-leaf stage rice, divided into two treatments, 40% and 30% soil moisture content (SMC). The RNAs of the samples were extracted, followed by the RNA sequencing analysis on their sORF expression changes under 40%_SMC and 30%_SMC, and lastly, the expression was validated through NanoString. A total of 122 and 143 sORFs were differentially expressed (DE) in 40%_SMC and 30%_SMC, respectively. In 40%_SMC, 69 sORFs out of 696 (9%) DEGs were found to be upregulated. On the other hand, 69 sORFs out of 449 DEGs (11%) were significantly downregulated. The trend seemed to be higher in 30%_SMC, where 112 (12%) sORFs were found to be upregulated from 928 significantly upregulated DEGs. However, only 8% (31 sORFs out of 385 DEGs) sORFs were downregulated in 30%_SMC. Among the identified sORFs, 110 sORFs with high similarity to rice proteome in the PsORF database were detected in 40%_SMC, while 126 were detected in 30%_SMC. The Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment analysis of DE sORFs revealed their involvement in defense-related biological processes, such as defense response, response to biotic stimulus, and cellular homeostasis, whereas enriched Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathways indicated that DE sORFs were associated with tryptophan and phenylalanine metabolisms. Several DE sORFs were identified, including the top five sORFs (OsisORF_3394, OsisORF_0050, OsisORF_3007, OsisORF_6407, and OsisORF_7805), which have yet to be characterised. Since these sORFs were responsive to drought stress, they might hold significant potential as targets for future climate-resilient rice development.

Fulltext Identification of Planck's constant by light emitting diodes (LEDS)

Nurain Azmi, Sabirin Mustafa, Nur Hazirah Mohd Yunos, Wan Nor Azlin Wan Mohd Sakri, Muhammad Nazzim Abdul Halim, Amin Aadenan

Journal of Academia Universiti Teknologi MARA Negeri Sembilan, 2020;8(2):33-38.

In this paper, a simple analysis yet a straight forward method of determining the Planck’s constant by
evaluating the stopping potential of five different colors of light emitting diodes (LEDs) is presented.
The study aimed to identify the Planck’s constant based on the relationship between the potential
difference of LEDs to their respective frequencies under room temperature with low illumination of
ambient light by applying a simple theoretical analysis. The experiment was performed by connecting
the circuit in series connection and the voltage reading of LEDs were recorded and then presented in a
graph of frequency, f versus stopping voltage, Vo. To determine the Planck’s constant, the best fit line
was analyzed and the centroid was also identified in order to find the minimum and maximum errors
due the gradient of the graph. From the analysis, results showed that the Planck constant value was
(5.997 ± 1.520) × 10–34 J.s with approximately 10% of deviation from the actual value. This
demonstrates that a simple analysis can be utilized to determine the Planck’s constant for the purpose
of the laboratory teaching and learning at the undergraduate level and can be served as a starting point
for the students to understand the concept of quantization of energy in Modern Physics more
effectively. This is to further suggest that the Planck’s constant can be identified via a low-cost and
unsophisticated experimental setup.

MyJurnal

The tone of peking 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 1’ was investigated using time-frequency analysis (TFA). The frequencies were measured using PicoScope oscilloscope, Melda analyzer in Cubase version 9 and Adobe version 3. Three different approaches for time-frequency analysis were used: Fourier spectra (using PicoScope), spectromorphology (using Melda analyzer) and spectrograms (using Adobe). Fourier spectra only identify intensity-frequency within entire signals, while spectromorphology identify the changes of intensity-frequency spectrum at fixed time and Adobe spectrograms identify the frequency with time. PicoScope reading produces the spectra of the fundamental and overtone frequencies in the entire sound. These overtones are non-harmonic since they are non-integral multiples of the fundamental. The fundamental frequencies of peking 1, 2, 3, 5, 6 were 1066Hz (C6), 1178Hz (D6), 1342Hz (E6), 1599Hz (G6) and 1793Hz (A6) respectively while peking 1’was 2123Hz (C7) i.e. one octave higher than peking 1. Melda analyzer reading proved that all peking sustained the initial fundamental frequency and overtone at t=0 until 2s. TFA from Adobe reading provides a description of the sound in the time-frequency plane. From TFA, peking 1, 2 and 6 exhibited a much gentler attack and more rapid decay than peking 3, 5 and 1’.

The remote measurements of radiation level at an identified location, are not only important for
collecting data or monitoring radiation level per se, but also crucial for workers who deal with
radiation sources. A device for checking an on-site radiation level has been developed quite a
long time ago under the name of Geiger Muller and widely known as a Geiger counter. The
reading of the output can be seen on the device on-site and on real-time basis. Nowadays, with
the fast evolution of computer and networking technology, those reading not only can be read
real-time but also from a remote location that makes workers able to enter the risky area more
safely. The collected data reading also can be analyzed for predicting the future trending
pattern. The data is transferred from the monitoring devices to a server through a network. This
paper discusses about several critical issues on the design, implementation and deployment that
relates to the devices, interface programs, hardware and software that allow all parameters such
as radiation levels reading and the timestamp of the data-logging can be collected and stored in
a central storage for further processes. The compatibility issue with regards to technology
change from the previous system will also be discussed. The system has many advantages
compared to previous system and conventional method of doing the area monitoring in term of
sustainability and availability.

MyJurnal

In this study, the numerical simulation in a mixing vessel agitated by a six bladed Rushton turbine has
been carried out to investigate the effects of effective parameters to the mixing process. The study is intended to screen the potential parameters which affect the optimization process and to provide the detail insights into the process. Three-dimensional and steady-state flow has been performed using the fully predictive Multiple Reference Frame (MRF) technique for the impeller and tank geometry. Process optimization is always used to ensure the optimum conditions are fulfilled to attain industries’ satisfaction or needs (ie; increase profit, low cost, yields, etc). In this study, the range of recommended speed to accelerate optimization is 100, 150 and 200rpm respectively and the range of recommended clearance is 50, 75 and 100mm respectively for dual Rushton impeller. Thus, the computer fluid dynamics (CFD) was introduced in order to screen the suitable parameters efficiently and to accelerate optimization. In this study,

The objective of this part of the study was to understand the current trend on readership of the Malaysian Dental Journal (MDJ) among Malaysian dentists. Their views on the contents and quality of the Malaysian Dental Journal were enquired. We also enquired the reasons they chose-to/chose-not-to read the MDJ. Of the 225 dentists surveyed, the number of MDJ readers was 101; with only 24.75% reading all issues published. The editorial section was rated as “useful” by 70.3% of readers, while 79.2%, 87.1%, 87.1% and 80.2% of readers rated the research article section, the review article section, the case reports section and book recommendation section similarly respectively. Feedback from readers indicated that they wanted more case reports, more review articles on “how to do it” and on medical problems in dentistry. More than half (55.45%) of the MDJ readers preferred to receive the journal in both hard and soft copies. For the non-readers, the most common reasons cited for not reading the MDJ was not being able to access to the journal, followed by not having time to read. Our finding suggested that the respondents preferred to learn from colleagues’ experience and to read article that can improve their clinical knowledge and skill.

Fulltext Diacritical digital Quran authentication model

Saqib Iqbal Hakak, Amirrudin Kamsin, Mohd. Yamani Idna Idris, Abdullah Gani, Saber Zerdoumi

Pertanika Journal of Science & Technology, 2017;25(106):133-142.
MyJurnal

There has been an increase of content related to Quran and Hadith on the internet over the past few years. Diacritical Digital Quran is very sensitive to tampering. Diacritics are the symbols used beneath/above Quranic verses for reading purposes of the Quran. Minor change in diacritics can alter the meaning of a particular Quranic verse. Hence, there is a need for an authentication system to differentiate between fake and original verses. In this work, a model is proposed related to automatic authentication of Digital Quran. Authentication model is divided into two phases: tokenisation and authentication. For tokenisation, regular expressions are used to split input Quranic verse into single characters. In case of authentication, existing and standard exact matching algorithm i.e. Quick search (QS) is used. On testing the proposed model by comparing popular search engines and other related existing works, our approach is 100 % accurate in terms of full verse detection.

Fulltext Characterization and Genomic Analysis of ssDNA Vibriophage vB_VpaM_PG19 within Microviridae, Representing a Novel Viral Genus

Guo R, Zheng K, Luo L, Liu Y, Shao H, Guo C, et al.

Microbiol Spectr, 2022 Aug 31;10(4):e0058522.
PMID: 35862991 DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.00585-22

Vibrio parahaemolyticus, a widespread marine bacterium, is responsible for a variety of diseases in marine organisms. Consumption of raw or undercooked seafood contaminated with V. parahaemolyticus is also known to cause acute gastroenteritis in humans. While numerous dsDNA vibriophages have been isolated so far, there have been few studies of vibriophages belonging to the ssDNA Microviridae family. In this study, a novel ssDNA phage, vB_VpaM_PG19 infecting V. parahaemolyticus, with a 5,572 bp ssDNA genome with a G+C content of 41.31% and encoded eight open reading frames, was isolated. Genome-wide phylogenetic analysis of the total phage isolates in the GenBank database revealed that vB_VpaM_PG19 was only related to the recently deposited vibriophage vB_VpP_WS1. The genome-wide average nucleotide homology of the two phages was 89.67%. The phylogenetic tree and network analysis showed that vB_VpaM_PG19 was different from other members of the Microviridae family and might represent a novel viral genus, together with vibriophage vB_VpP_WS1, named Vimicrovirus. One-step growth curves showed that vB_VpaM_PG19 has a short incubation period, suggesting its potential as an antimicrobial agent for pathogenic V. parahaemolyticus. IMPORTANCE Vibriophage vB_VpaM_PG19 was distant from other isolated microviruses in the phylogenetic tree and network analysis and represents a novel microviral genus, named Vimicrovirus. Our report describes the genomic and phylogenetic features of vB_VpaM_PG19 and provides a potential antimicrobial candidate for pathogenic V. parahaemolyticus.

Fulltext Orthography-phonology consistency in English: Theory- and data-driven measures and their impact on auditory vs. visual word recognition

Lim A, O'Brien B, Onnis L

Behav Res Methods, 2024 Mar;56(3):1283-1313.
PMID: 37553536 DOI: 10.3758/s13428-023-02094-5

Research on orthographic consistency in English words has selectively identified different sub-syllabic units in isolation (grapheme, onset, vowel, coda, rime), yet there is no comprehensive assessment of how these measures affect word identification when taken together. To study which aspects of consistency are more psychologically relevant, we investigated their independent and composite effects on human reading behavior using large-scale databases. Study 1 found effects on adults' naming responses of both feedforward consistency (orthography to phonology) and feedback consistency (phonology to orthography). Study 2 found feedback but no feedforward consistency effects on visual and auditory lexical decision tasks, with the best predictor being a composite measure of consistency across grapheme, rime, OVC, and word-initial letter-phoneme. In Study 3, we explicitly modeled the reading process with forward and backward flow in a bidirectionally connected neural network. The model captured latent dimensions of quasi-regular mapping that explain additional variance in human reading and spelling behavior, compared to the established measures. Together, the results suggest interactive activation between phonological and orthographic word representations. They also validate the role of computational analyses of language to better understand how print maps to sound, and what properties of natural language affect reading complexity.

Working memory and literacy as predictors of performance on algebraic word problems

Lee K, Ng SF, Ng EL, Lim ZY

J Exp Child Psychol, 2004 Oct;89(2):140-58.
PMID: 15388303 DOI: 10.1016/j.jecp.2004.07.001

Previous studies on individual differences in mathematical abilities have shown that working memory contributes to early arithmetic performance. In this study, we extended the investigation to algebraic word problem solving. A total of 151 10-year-olds were administered algebraic word problems and measures of working memory, intelligence quotient (IQ), and reading ability. Regression results were consistent with findings from the arithmetic literature showing that a literacy composite measure provided greater contribution than did executive function capacity. However, a series of path analyses showed that the overall contribution of executive function was comparable to that of literacy; the effect of executive function was mediated by that of literacy. Both the phonological loop and the visual spatial sketchpad failed to contribute directly; they contributed only indirectly by way of literacy and performance IQ, respectively.

Nahar L, Jaafar A, Ahamed E, Kaish AB

Assist Technol, 2015;27(3):172-82.
PMID: 26427745 DOI: 10.1080/10400435.2015.1011758

Visually impaired students (VIS) are unable to get visual information, which has made their learning process complicated. This paper discusses the overall situation of VIS in Bangladesh and identifies major challenges that they are facing in getting education. The Braille system is followed to educate blind students in Bangladesh. However, lack of Braille based educational resources and technological solutions have made the learning process lengthy and complicated for VIS. As a developing country, Bangladesh cannot afford for the costly Braille related technological tools for VIS. Therefore, a mobile phone based Braille application, "mBRAILLE", for Android platform is designed to provide an easy Braille learning technology for VIS in Bangladesh. The proposed design is evaluated by experts in assistive technology for students with disabilities, and advanced learners of Braille. The application aims to provide a Bangla and English Braille learning platform for VIS. In this paper, we depict iterative (participatory) design of the application along with a preliminary evaluation with 5 blind subjects, and 1 sighted and 2 blind experts. The results show that the design scored an overall satisfaction level of 4.53 out of 5 by all respondents, indicating that our design is ready for the next step of development.

Bhandari M, Wei Ern RL, Majumder C, Ho D

Med J Malaysia, 2019 02;74(1):30-33.
PMID: 30846659

PURPOSE: To determine the effects of ChromaGen blue filter lens in reading speed, accuracy and contrast sensitivity.
METHODS: A cross-over, randomised study was carried out on 40 individuals (11 males and 29 females) aged 21 to 30 years. The rate of reading and reading accuracy was calculated with and without ChromaGen blue filter lens in all subjects. Wilkins Rate of Reading Test was used to measure the rate of reading and reading accuracy. Contrast sensitivity was also evaluated by using with and without the ChromaGen blue filter lens.
RESULTS: The mean rate of reading with and without ChromaGen blue filter lens was 160.58±16.03 words per minute and 150.52±15.66 words per minute respectively, with significant difference of p<0.001. The mean of reading accuracy (words correctly read per minute) in subjects, with ChromaGen blue filter was 149.30±0.79 words and without using filter lens was 148.53±1.11 words and found to be significant (p<0.001). There was no significant difference in the contrast sensitivity between subjects with and without the ChromaGen blue filter lens (p=0.083). No significant correlation was noted between the reading speed with age, spherical equivalent, contrast sensitivity, and reading accuracy.
CONCLUSION: This study concludes that there was an increase of 6.68% in the rate of reading and improvement of 0.52% in accuracy among subjects with ChromaGen blue filter lens.
