Impacts of Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) Technology on the Sustainability of Coal-Based Power Generation Pathways

Received: 16 November 2024;  Published: 10 March 2025;  doi: 10.21926/rpse.2501003

Abstract

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology mitigates greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. However, comprehensive studies assessing the sustainability of coal-based power generation (CBPG) with CCS remain limited. This study focuses on developing comparative sustainability indicators across the entire life cycle of CBPG integrated with CCS technology. Sixty-six pathways were analyzed after establishing five sustainability indicators for each. These indicators were standardized per megawatt-hour (MWh) of energy, encompas [...]

Illuminate Resection Pathways with Fluorescence Guidance in Glioma Surgery: Case Reports and Systematic Review

Received: 20 April 2024;  Published: 09 September 2024;  doi: 10.21926/obm.neurobiol.2403244

Abstract

Gliomas are the most common brain tumor in adults, with a poor prognosis despite intensive treatments. Complete surgical resection is difficult due to its infiltrative growth, but aggressive surgery improves outcomes. Fluorescence-guided surgery (FGS) is used to distinguish tumor tissue during surgery. 5-Aminolevulinic Acid (5-ALA) is a crucial fluorescent agent in FGS, transforming into a molecule that accumulates in tumor cells. We presented a 34-year-old female with a high-grade glioma in the left parietal lobe [...]

The Relationship between Self-Compassion and Predictors of Depressed Mood in Parents of People with Eating Disorders

Received: 18 February 2023;  Published: 05 January 2024;  doi: 10.21926/obm.icm.2401004

Abstract

The aim of this study was to examine the relationships between self-compassion and possible predictors of depressed mood in parents of people with eating disorders. A questionnaire design was conducted cross‐sectionally in a sample of 112 parents of people with eating disorders. Participants completed measures of depressed mood, experiences of entrapment, shame, guilt, self-criticism and self-compassion. Regression analyses showed entrapment and self-criticism to be mediators between the relationship of shame and d [...]

Examining the Relationship between Attitudes Towards Genomic Technology and Genetic Entrepreneurial Intention among Egyptian Healthcare Professionals

Received: 24 September 2023;  Published: 24 October 2023;  doi: 10.21926/obm.genet.2304199

Abstract

In the contemporary landscape, nurturing genomic entrepreneurial attitudes and intentions poses a substantial challenge for healthcare organizations. The present paper examines the factors affecting attitudes towards genomic technology and entrepreneurial intentions among Egyptian healthcare professionals. The study applied a quantitative approach and collected cross-sectional data from 276 health professionals using convenience sampling. Using structural equation modeling (SEM) through SmartPLS 4, the findings sug [...]

Monitoring Energy-Loss-Driven-Cost by Using Earned Value Simulation in Complex Systems

Received: 24 July 2023;  Published: 06 February 2024;  doi: 10.21926/jept.2401004

Abstract

The economic impact of energy loss stemming from end-user electricity consumption is a significant concern, with historical trends revealing escalating costs. Effectively managing both peak and off-peak demands remains a formidable challenge due to the unpredictable nature of consumer behaviors, leading to energy wastage. This study delves into the nexus of demand uncertainty, financial repercussions, and potential strategies to mitigate energy losses in the evolving landscape of electricity consumption.that causes [...]

Forgiveness Therapy to Reduce Violent Behavior in Individuals with Schizophrenia: A Case Study

Received: 03 December 2024;  Published: 26 March 2025;  doi: 10.21926/obm.neurobiol.2501281

Abstract

This study aims to describe the application of forgiveness therapy as a psychosocial intervention for a schizophrenia patient with violent behavior. Mr. M, a 19-year-old male diagnosed with schizophrenia, exhibited psychotic symptoms, including auditory hallucinations, persecutory delusions, agitation, and aggression. He had a history of trauma due to physical violence from his brother. The patient was diagnosed with a risk for violence toward others. Forgiveness therapy was implemented over six sessions, each last [...]

The Impact of Vitamin D on Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: Exploring Its Role in Glucose Metabolism and Insulin Sensitivity

Received: 15 May 2025;  Published: 29 September 2025;  doi: 10.21926/rpn.2503021

Abstract

Vitamin D, a fat-soluble secosteroid, plays a pivotal role beyond its functions in calcium and bone homeostasis. Emerging evidence suggests its involvement in glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity, thus influencing the pathophysiology of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). For the current review, a search was conducted across four major databases: PubMed, Embase, Google Scholar, and Web of Science. The aim was to identify relevant studies and clinical trials, published in English, reporting the mechanistic insigh [...]

Management of Steatosis in Living Donors: Where Do We Stand?

Received: 23 October 2023;  Published: 01 April 2024;  doi: 10.21926/obm.transplant.2402210

Abstract

With the progressive rise in rates of liver transplantation, stagnant donor pool, and social factors, living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) forms the majority of liver transplantations performed in Asian countries. As the global prevalence of metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is increasing, around 17-25% of all the prospective donors turn out to be steatotic at the time of evaluation and, as such, rejected for donor hepatectomy, thereby considerably reducing the living donor pool. Steatotic graft [...]
