Effect of Teeth Contamination on The Retention and Microleakage of Stainless Steel Crowns in Primary Molars.

Aim: determine the effect of teeth contamination on the retention and microleakage of stainless steel crowns in primary molars cemented either with; resin modified glass ionomer cement or self-adhesive resin luting cement. Methodology: One hundred and twenty extracted primary maxillary and mandibular molars were collected and stored in tap water at 37°C till its use for the study. The roots of each tooth were embedded in self-cure acrylic blocks. Standard SSC preparations were performed for all molars. After fitting SSCs, the sample was divided into non-contaminated group (n=40): group A; 40 teeth, and contaminated groups (n=80): group B saliva contamination and group C saliva and blood contamination (40 teeth each). Then each group was subdivided into two sub-groups; 20 teeth each according to the type of the luting cement, which then subdivided into 10 teeth for retention test and 10 teeth for microleakage test. For groups B&C, teeth enamel was contaminated immediately before cementation process. Luting cements used in this study were resin modified glass ionomer (FujiCEMR 2) or self-adhesive lutting cement (MulitilinkR Speed). After crowns cementation retention test was measured for the allocated groups using instron universal testing machine, while microleakage test was evaluated with the digital method for the other groups. Results: Compared to the experimental groups, the control group (non-contaminated; group A) showed the highest retention value and the least microleakage. Self adhesive resin luting cement significantly had higher retention and less microleakage degree than resin modified glass ionomer cement with a significant difference (p<0.001). Under saliva (group B) and saliva and blood (group c) contaminations, the mean retention value of self adhesive resin was higher when compared to retention of RMGIC with a significant difference in saliva group (p<0.023), and in saliva and blood group (p<0.18). Also less microleakage was recorded with both types of cement in saliva contamination when compared with saliva and blood contamination with a significant difference (p<0.001). The highest degree of microleakage (3473.00±486.21) was observed with RMGIC in group C. Conclusion: The self adhesive luting cement had a significantly higher retention, and lesser microleakage than RMGIC in all conditions of this study. Both materials showed a significant increase in the retention value and lesser degree of microleakage when contaminated with only saliva than with saliva and blood contamination.

Expressive Gestures

During the reign of Ivan the Terrible, the Litsevoi letopisnyi svod, a massive illustrated chronicle of the history of the world and of Russia was produced in a single manuscript. Consisting of over 20,000 pages, with over 17,000 illustrations, the work should be a treasure trove for visually-minded scholarship. However, at first glance, the figures appear rigid and formulaic, offering little promise for interpretation. This article examines a small subset of these images that depict the Russian conquest of the Muslim Khanate of Astrakhan in 1556. The images deploy an unexpectedly powerful language of emotion, expressed through gesture. The Astrakhan images provide opportunities not only to explore early modern Russian ideas about emotion, but also to consider human connections across the Christian-Muslim divide.
Does Use of Books and Electronic Media Associate to Joint Attention Skills and Temperament during the First Year of Life?

Several researchers have found that media exposure through books or electronic media contribute to preschoolers’ development. However, research with behavioral measures and during the first years of life have not been carried out in Latin American contexts. The aim of the following research was to evaluate the relations between media exposure through electronic media and books with joint attention skills and temperament (i.e., effortful control, surgency and negative affect) during the first year of life. A free play session was carried out, where the number of mother-infant interaction behaviors were assessed. Findings state that only the amount and the frequency of the use of books at home between caregivers and infants were positively associated with the behaviors of joint attention and surgency. Conclusion denotes that books would probably be associated with more infant interactions and higher SES, mediating in the promotion of cognitive development from the first months of life.
Research on Mobile User Interface for Robot Arm Remote Control in Industrial Application

The simulation results are obtained for various assessment indicators and effectual outcomes are achieved with 98.03% accuracy value and 0.185, 0.180 of error and loss values for training phase. The accuracy value of 97.65% is achieved for testing phase with corresponding 0.209 and 0.190 minimum error and loss values. The proposed platform provides the feasible and reliable outcomes in the real time environment for real time manufacturing industry applications.
Convergent energy state-dependent antagonistic signalling by CART and NPY modulates the plasticity of forebrain neurons to regulate feeding in zebrafish

Dynamic re-configuration of circuit function subserves the flexibility of innate behaviours tuned to physiological states. Internal energy stores adaptively regulate feeding-associated behaviours by integrating opposing hunger and satiety signals at the level of neural circuits. Across vertebrate lineages, the neuropeptides CART and NPY have potent anorexic and orexic functions, respectively, and show energy state-dependent expression in interoceptive neurons. However, how the antagonistic activities of these peptides modulate circuit plasticity remains unclear. Using behavioural, neuroanatomical and activity analysis in adult zebrafish, along with pharmacological interventions, we show that CART and NPY activities converge on a population of neurons in the dorsomedial telencephalon (Dm). While CART facilitates glutamatergic neurotransmission at the Dm, NPY dampens the response to glutamate. In energy-rich states, CART enhances NMDA receptor (NMDAR) function by PKA/PKC mediated phosphorylation of the NR1 subunit of the NMDAR complex. Conversely, starvation triggers NPY-mediated reduction in phosphorylated NR1 via calcineurin activation and inhibition of cAMP production leading to reduced responsiveness to glutamate. Our data identify convergent integration of CART and NPY inputs by the Dm neurons to generate nutritional state-dependent circuit plasticity that is correlated with the behavioural switch induced by the opposing actions of satiety and hunger signals.
Current Understanding of the Earliest Human Occupations in the Americas: Evaluation of Becerra-Valdivia and Higham (2020)

ABSTRACT Various chronologies of the earliest Native American occupations have been proposed with varying levels of empirical support and conceptual rigor, yet none is widely accepted. A recent survey of pre-Clovis dated sites (Becerra-Valdivia and Higham 2020) concludes a pre-Last Glacial Maximum (>26,500–19,000 cal yr BP) entry of humans in the Americas, in part based on recent work at Chiquihuite Cave, Mexico. We evaluate the evidence used to develop this inference. To provide clarity, we present three explicit dispersal models for the earliest human dispersals to the Americas: Strict Clovis-First (13,050 cal yr BP), Paleoindian (<16,000 cal yr BP), and Pre-Paleoindian (>16,000 cal yr BP, encompassing pre-LGM, preferred by Becerra-Valdivia and Higham (2020)), and we summarize the current genetic and archaeological evidence bearing on each. We regard all purported Pre-Paleoindian sites as equivocal and the Strict Clovis-First model to be equally unsupported at present. We conclude that current data strongly support the Paleoindian Dispersal model, with Native American ancestors expanding into the Americas sometime after 16,000 cal yr BP (and perhaps after 14,800 cal yr BP), consistent with well-dated archaeological sites and with genetic data throughout the western hemisphere. Models of the Americas’ peopling that incorporate Chiquihuite or other claimed Pre-Paleoindian sites remain unsubstantiated.
STUDIES ON FERTILIZATION REQUIREMENTS OF TURMERIC (Curcuma domestica Val.) PLANT A- Effect of chemical fertilizer, yeast and biofertilization on vegetative growth of turmeric

This study was carried out in the Experimental Farm of Faculty of Agriculture, Cairo University, Egypt during two successive seasons 2004, 2005 to investigate the effect of chemicals, yeast and biofertilization on vegetative growth of turmeric (Curcuma domestica Val.) plant. One level of the following bacterial strains mixture was used: Azotobacter chroococcum, Azospirillum lipoferum, Bacillus polymixa, Bacillus megatherium and Pseudomonas fluorescence. Also one level (6g/litre) of active dry yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae), in addition to three levels from the recommended dose (zero, 50% and 75%) of nitrogen and phosphorus (120 N kg/hectar and 60 P2O5 kg/hectar) were applied. The results of these experiments can be summarized as follows: The treatment of biofertilizer + 75% of the recommended dose of both nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizer led to the highest values of vegetative parameters such as (plant height, stem diameter and leaf area) compared to control plants. Also, it increased rhizome fresh and dry weight per plant and per feddan) compared to using active dry yeast + the same treatment of chemical fertilizers or using chemical fertilizers alone.
How Do We Legislate for Improved Community Development?

An extractive mining minerals project has a finite lifespan—the project ceases once the minerals have been depleted. Governments have choices in what they want to achieve during a project’s life and have a variety of regulatory and other tools by which to achieve their objectives. Historically, the primary objective is to obtain fiscal revenues from an extractive project and to use larger projects as a means to build infrastructure to benefit society. More recently, governments are looking to achieve benefits for local communities not only in the near term while operations are ongoing, but also on a sustainable basis. Many large projects implement corporate social responsibility programmes, which often include benefits for nearby communities. Increasingly, governments are mandating in legislation that extractive industry projects must have programmes for community development rather than relying on voluntary efforts.
CHEMICAL BEHAVIOR OF LEAD IN A SANDY SOIL LONG-TERM IRRIGATED WITH SEWAGE EFFLUENT

Three soil profiles were dug in Abuo-Rawash farm, Giza, Egypt; two of them were nearly highway and subjected to continuous irrigation with effluent up to 40 years, the other one was not contaminated. The collected soil samples under contamination condition were investigated for their total content Pb content, availability and distributions among the different chemical fractions,. The non contaminated one was subjected to adsorptiondesorption reaction to asses the ability of soil for Pb retention. The obtained results showed that the level of both total and DTPAextractable Pb as well as those of some detected heavy metals, i.e, Fe, Mn , Zn, Cu, Ni and Cd were, to some extent higher, particularly in the surface layers of the contaminated soils. However, the soil samples (0-10cm) taken 5m from road side contained markedly higher total Pb amounts reaching 20 and 28 folds those of the non contaminated one and are considered phytotoxic. Likewise, the corresponding values of the chemically available Pb were 13.7 and 23 fold, respectively and exceeded the maximum background level. Sequential extraction procedure results showed that , although the exchangeable Pb fraction increased due to increasing soil contamination , most of the added Pb to the studied soils was associated with the residual and/or the organically bound fraction indicating the expected high efficiency of soil organic matter and clay in immobilizing Pb. Thus, the tested soil has relative ability to minimize the immediate risk of the added Pb. Lead adsorption was confirmed to the Langmuir isotherm and the calculated adsorption maximum value (b) revealed that Pb saturated up to 54.5% of the cation exchange capacity of the non contaminated soil. Desorption of the adsorbed Pb represented about 57.1%. This means that more than 40% of the adsorbed Pb was considered not chemically available (retained).
UTEROTONIC DRUGS IN THE PREVENTION OF POSTPARTUM HEMORRHAGES

In the world practice, hemorrhages in obstetrics take leading positions within the causes of maternal morbidity and mortal ity. 800 women die every day due to childbirth complications under the data of the World Health Organization. The majority of maternal deaths occur during the perinatal period, usually within 24 hours postpartum. It is possible to prevent most of them. Lack of adequate pre-conceptional training, uncompensated extragenital diseases increase the percentage of pathological births. Consequently, practicing obstetricians-gynecologists have to face such childbirth complications as postpartum hemorrhage with increasing frequency. Uterine atonia is the main cause of postpartum hemorrhages. Uterotonic drugs administration enables to re- duce the risk of postpartum atonic hemorrhages. Particular attention should be paid to postpartum hemorrhage prevention, i.e. the use of uterotonic drugs as an integral part of the active management during the third period in natural labor and caesarean section.

Cloud based Resource Scheduling Methodology for Data-Intensive Smart Cities and Industrial Applications

For the data-intensive applications, resource planning and scheduling has become an important part for smart cities. The cloud computing techniques are being used for planning and scheduling of resources in data-intensive applications. The regular methodologies being used are adequately successful for giving the asset allotment yet they do not provide time effectiveness during task execution. This article presents an effective and time prioritization based smart resource management platform employing the Cuckoo Search based Optimized Resource Allocation (CSO-RA) methodology. The opensource JStorm platform is utilized for dynamic asset planning while using big data analytics and the outcomes of the experimentation are observed using various assessment parameters. The proposed (CSO-RA) system is compared with the current methodologies like particle swarm optimization (PSO), ant colony optimization (ACO) and genetic algorithm (GA) based optimization methodologies and the viability of the proposed framework is established. The percentage of optimality observed for CSO-RA algorithm is 97\% and overall resource deployment rate of 28\% is achieved using CSO-RA method which is comparatively much better than PSO, GA and ACO conventional algorithms. Feasible outcomes are obtained by using the CSO-RA methodology for cloud computing based large scale optimization-based data intensive industrial applications.
Two structurally different oomycete lipophilic MAMPs induce distinctive plant immune responses

Plants recognize a variety of external signals and induce appropriate mechanisms to increase their tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses. Precise recognition of attacking pathogens and induction of effective resistance mechanisms are critical functions for plant survival. Some molecular patterns unique to a certain group of microbes, microbe-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs), are sensed by plant cells as non-self molecules via pattern recognition receptors. While MAMPs of bacterial and fungal origin have been identified, reports on oomycete MAMPs are relatively limited. This study aimed to identify MAMPs from an oomycete pathogen Phytophthora infestans, the causal agent of potato late blight. Using reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and phytoalexin production in potato as markers, two structurally different groups of elicitors, namely ceramides and diacylglycerols were identified. P. infestans ceramides (Pi-Cer A, B and D) induced ROS production, while diacylglycerol (Pi-DAG A and B), containing eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) as a substructure, induced phytoalexins production in potato. The molecular patterns in Pi-Cers and Pi-DAGs essential for defense induction were identified as 9-methyl-4,8-sphingadienine (9Me-Spd) and 5,8,11,14-tetraene-type fatty acid (5,8,11,14-TEFA), respectively. These structures are not found in plants, but in oomycetes and fungi, indicating that they are microbe molecular patterns recognized by plants. When Arabidopsis was treated with Pi-Cer D and EPA, partially overlapping but different sets of genes were induced. Furthermore, expression of some genes is upregulated only after the simultaneous treatment with Pi-Cer D and EPA, indicating that plants combine the signals from simultaneously recognized MAMPs to adapt the defense response to pathogens.
Climate variability and impacts on maize (Zea mays) yield in Ghana, West Africa

Rain‐fed agriculture is predominantly the primary source of livelihood in sub‐Saharan Africa. In Ghana, it employs over 60% of the population and contributes to about 30% of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Despite the relevance of rain‐fed agriculture to the socioe‐conomic development of the country, studies investigating the impacts of climate variability on crop yield in the region are limited. This prevents the growth of relevant policy frameworks to address the threats posed by climate variability on crop production. As a contribution to guide policy planning and food security in Ghana, the present study seeks to analyze the vulnerability of maize yield to rainfall, soil moisture, and minimum and maximum temperature variability in Ghana. Moreover, the study assesses the impact of below‐normal and above‐normal rainfall conditions on maize yield in the country. The results show a decreasing trend in rainfall and soil moisture and an increasing trend in the maize yield and minimum and maximum temperature in Ghana. The individual climate variables (rainfall, soil moisture, minimum and maximum temperature) account for approximately 4.2, 22.5, 39.2, and 23.1%, respectively, of the annual maize yield variations throughout the study period. Multivariate regression analysis revealed that soil moisture and minimum and maximum temperature account for approximately 75% of the variation of maize yield under wetter‐than‐normal conditions in Ghana. This implies that, under wetter‐than‐normal rainfall conditions, 25% of the variation in maize yield could be attributable to non‐climatic conditions or practices. In like manner, climatic parameters account for 40.8% of maize yield under drier‐than‐normal rainfall conditions in the country. This study, therefore, recommends investment in climate‐smart agronomic technologies such as access to improved seed, extension and mechanization services, and other farm management practices to maximize maize yield in the country.
