Synthesis of zero valent iron loaded on carbon nanotubes and its effectiveness in removing a dye pollutant by Zohreh Ghazi Tabatabaei

“…The optimization of operating variables, including the amount of nano-adsorbent, the initial concentration of the dye, and the pH, was conducted using an experimental design based on response surface methodology (the Box–Behnken method). The maximum removal efficiency under optimal conditions was 86.16%. …”

Minimizing Bleed-Through Effect in Medieval Manuscripts with Machine Learning and Robust Statistics by Adriano Ettari, Massimo Brescia, Stefania Conte, Yahya Momtaz, Guido Russo

“…The application of these methods to the two quoted manuscripts shows that these methods are, in general, quite effective in bleed-through removal, but the selection of the method has to be performed according to the characteristics of the manuscript, e.g., if there is no ink fading and the difference between bleed-through pixels and the foreground text is clear, we can use a stronger model without the risk of losing important information. …”

Prevention strategies against academic burnout: the perspective of Romanian health sciences students in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic by Ovidiu Popa-Velea, Ioana Ruxandra Stoian-Bǎlǎşoiu, Ioana Ruxandra Stoian-Bǎlǎşoiu, Alexandra Mihai, Alexandra Ioana Mihǎilescu, Alexandra Ioana Mihǎilescu, Liliana Veronica Diaconescu

“…This study aimed to investigate academic burnout and the perception of its prevention strategies among Romanian health sciences students.MethodsThree hundred and five health sciences students (from General Medicine, Dental Medicine, Pharmacy, and Midwifery and Nursing) (36 men, 269 women, mean age 21.9, standard deviation 1.911) self-rated their burnout using the Burnout Assessment Tool (BAT) and a visual analog scale, and answered a survey with open and closed questions about the most effective coping strategies to prevent burnout.ResultsAbove average scores (mean = 3.05; SD = 0.67) on burnout were met (with the highest scores on exhaustion and psychological distress and the lowest on mental distance and psychosomatic symptoms). …”
