The aim of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of low-level laser therapy in enhancing the rate of orthodontic tooth movement using β glucoronidase and pentraxin-3 (TNF) biomarkers in gingival crevicular fluid.

A split-mouth design was used in 16 subjects (8 experimental and 8 controlled) aged 14 to 25 years, who’s maxillary first premolars were extracted. A gallium-aluminium-arsenide semiconductor diode laser (wavelength, 810 nm; energy density, 10 J/cm2; power output, 100 mW) delivered low-level laser therapy to the experimental canine undergoing distalization at 10 points. The control canine was distalized without low-level laser therapy. The experimental and control canines were distalized using a force of 150 g provided by nickel-titanium closed coil springs. Gingival crevicular fluid was collected at 5 time points from the control and experimental sides, and the levels of β glucoronidase and pentraxin-3 were analysed by enzyme-linked immuno-sorbent assay (ELISA). The rate of canine retraction was calculated by using ortho analyser software.

Increased levels of β glucoronidase and pentraxin-3 were observed in the experimental canines compared with the control canines (P <0.001). Cumulative tooth movements over an 8-week experimental period were greater for the experimental canines compared with the control canines. A positive correlation existed between the β glucoronidase and pentraxin-3 levels and the amounts of tooth movement across all time intervals.

Low level laser therapy in adjunct with continuous and light forces leads to increase in β glucoronidase and pentraxin-3 leading to accelerated orthodontic tooth movement.

: Low-level laser therapy fastens the rate of canine retraction thus accelerating the orthodontic tooth movement. The levels of β glucoronidase and Pentraxin 5 are increased significantly after laser irradiation which aids in accelerating orthodontic tooth movement.

Published: August 2024

The  article  presents  the  main  conclusions  from  an  investigation  of  the  ways  in  which  factors  involved  in  digitalization  stimulate  the  processes  required  for  digital  transformation.  Despite  the central  place  that  digitalization  occupies  in  modern  economic  research,  neither  the  factors  that contribute  to  digitalization  nor  how  they  affect  the  dynamics  of  digital  transformation  have  been sufficiently  elucidated.  Such  an  examination  would  apply  neoclassical  growth  theory  (production functions)  to  identify  the  factors  in  digitalization  in  order  to  highlight  how  capital  and  innovation are the main driving forces behind digital processes. The article carries out a correlation analysis using  the  pair  correlation  method  on  officially  published  statistical  data  from  127  countries.  The results fall into four phases of digital development and enable an assessment of the varying impact of digitalization factors on the digital transformation process in accordance with these phases. The resulting analysis indicates that capital is less important for digitalization than innovation, while the impact of both those factors decreases as digital development progresses. On the assumption that digitalization is currently slowing down among the leaders in digital advancement, Russia (like many countries that have the necessary potential) has an opportunity to improve the relative standing of its digital economy. In order to achieve that goal, this research would suggest increasing the country’s network readiness and developing human capital while also harnessing innovation as the main driver of digital transformation. This research topic is relevant to evaluating and enhancing Russia’s prospects for socio-economic development.

Com o presente estudo, buscamos perceber em que momentos e situações as representações de mulheres comparecem no livro - Português: linguagens, organizado pelos autores William Cereja e Thereza Cochar - destinado ao 3º ano do Ensino Médio manual. Dessa forma, o foco deste estudo é discutir a representação da mulher tanto em imagens visuais como em textos verbais veiculados no manual, assim como o espaço da mulher autora. O aporte teórico privilegiado para a análise é Scott (1995), Louro (1997), Collins e Bilge (2021), Woolf (2014). Trata-se de estudo descritivo e analítico, situado no campo da problematização e com análise de imagens paradas. Realizamos leitura exploratória do livro didático e dela extraímos o foco do estudo – presença/ausência da mulher nos textos, a fim de problematizar a presença ou ausência da mulher na obra. Percebemos que a maior parte das aparições ocorre por meio de imagens visuais de mulheres que acompanham textos escritos de autores homens. A mulher representada sob o olhar masculino nos textos verbais e nas ilustrações reforça a sua condição por muito tempo normalizada. No manual didático em tela, são raras as aparições da mulher que cria sob a sua própria ótica. Esses aspectos identificados no artigo parecem-nos ainda mais problemáticos, uma vez que a coleção que integra o corpus desta pesquisa foi a que obteve maior número de exemplares distribuído às escolas de Ensino Médio, pelo Ministério da Educação, pelo PNLD/2015.

Authors: Dupáková Darina , Duplák Ján , Kojic Dejan , Sloboda Patrik
Published: August 2024

Artificial lighting systems are an integral part of production halls. These systems are typically used to supplement daylight, although in some cases they are the sole source of lighting in the workplace. Every artificial lighting system is accompanied by an unfavourable phenomenon: glare. This phenomenon is one of the main factors affecting the quantitative parameters of internal lighting systems. Glare needs to be reduced in each production area to ensure visual well-being, which is linked to the visual performance of employees and consequently affects the efficiency and productivity of production. Obtaining information about glare in a real system is a difficult and lengthy process. However, digital software tools can be used in a simulated environment to predict and reduce glare. This article addresses the issue of reducing glare in artificial lighting systems using a digital software solution. The introduction discusses the theoretical aspects of glare caused by artificial lighting systems. This is followed by a practical example using the simulation method with the Dialux Evo tool to reduce glare in the workplace. The conclusion of the article provides an analysis of the results achieved and offers recommendations for practical implementation.

Preparing the Electrical Signal Data of the Heart by Performing Segmentation Based on the Neural Network U-Net
Authors: Abood Qaswaa Khaled , Salman Ruaa Sadoon
Published: August 2024

Research on the automated extraction of essential data from an electrocardiography (ECG) recording has been a significant topic for a long time. The main focus of digital processing processes is to measure fiducial points that determine the beginning and end of the P, QRS, and T waves based on their waveform properties. The presence of unavoidable noise during ECG data collection and inherent physiological differences among individuals make it challenging to accurately identify these reference points, resulting in suboptimal performance. This is done through several primary stages that rely on the idea of preliminary processing of the ECG electrical signal through a set of steps (preparing raw data and converting them into files that are read and then processed by removing empty data and unifying the width of the signal at a length of 250 in order to remove noise accurately, and then performing the process of identifying the QRS in the first place and P-T implicitly, and then the task stage is determining the required peak and making a cut based on it. The U-Net pre-trained model is used for deep learning. It takes an ECG signal with a customisable sampling rate as input and generates a list of the beginning and ending points of P and T waves, as well as QRS complexes, as output. The distinguishing features of our segmentation method are its high speed, minimal parameter requirements, and strong generalization capabilities, which are used to create data that can be used in diagnosing diseases or biometric systems.

Published: August 2024

Background: The popularity of breast reduction and abdominoplasty has significantly increased over the years, according to statistics from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons 2022. As a result, the Mommy Makeover, a procedure combining breast surgery and abdominoplasty, is not uncommon. Patients and Methods: A retrospective descriptive study was conducted over a four-year period within the Plastic and Aesthetic Surgery Department of the IBN SINA University Hospital, Rabat, Morocco.
Results: Five cases of Mommy Makeover were operated on within the Plastic and Aesthetic Surgery Department of the IBN SINA University Hospital, Rabat, Morocco. One case was addressed two years after bariatric surgery. The procedure combined breast reduction with the superior-internal pedicle technique with Wise’s pattern and abdominoplasty. No major complications were observed.
Discussion: Since the introduction of abdominoplasties combined with breast surgery, several concerns have been associated with this combination. Venous thromboembolism is the most commonly discussed consequence in combined plastic surgery procedures. The risk of venous thromboembolism is not elevated when abdominoplasty and breast reduction are combined. The study emphasizes the importance of careful patient selection and attentive venous thromboembolism prevention. It assesses the validity of the Davison-Caprini framework for venous thromboembolism risk stratification and prophylaxis in plastic surgery. Other measures to prevent complications were cited in the literature and followed by our operating team.
Conclusion: With the help of a simple risk stratification tool that takes into account diabetes, age, BMI, and ASA status, we can guarantee favorable results for women who may want combined surgery.

Background: The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between LDH and CRP levels and the mortality of COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) patients admitted to the SURGERY ICU at Shariati Hospital from 19 February 2020 to 19 February 2021.
Methods: Our study is a cross-sectional descriptive study. A total of 81 patients were enrolled in this study. We examined lab reports, including CBC parameters (WBC, neutrophil count, neutrophil percentage), other inflammatory markers ESR and CRP, and also studied the medical records of cases to collect details about age, gender, length of stay in SURGERY ICU, BMI, fever, survival status, comorbidity, intubation, and NIV. These patients were referred to Shariati Hospital, Tehran, from 19 February 2020 to 19 February 2021, regarding the relationship between LDH and CRP levels and the mortality of COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) patients admitted to the SURGERY ICU. The data obtained was analyzed using SPSS software, and a significance value of < 0.05 was considered.
Results: In this study, the data of 81 patients were considered. The data were obtained from the medical records of Shariati Hospital, Tehran. We used 11 variables to compare data from different patients that were recorded in the registry and system of medical records in Shariati Hospital, Tehran. The study population included 81 patients, of which 41 were female and 40 were male, ranging in age from 25 to 89. In total, 80.2% had mild disease versus 18.5% who had severe disease. Sixty-five patients survived, and 16 were admitted to the SURGERY ICU with endotracheal intubation and later died. The length of stay in the SURGERY ICU ranged from 1 to 25 days. Out of 81 patients, 52 (62.4%) had comorbidity, and 29 (35.8%) did not have comorbidity. Twelve patients (14.8%) received NIV, and 69 patients (85.2%) did not receive NIV. Most of the patients did not have a fever. The minimum and maximum levels of CRP were 4 and 416, respectively, and for LDH were 9 and 2401, respectively. The prognostic factors for the severity of COVID-19 infection identified in this study (CRP and LDH) help predict the course of the disease at an early stage. Elevated concentrations of CRP and LDH at admission were found to be associated with a higher risk for COVID-19 severity as they were significant (p-value =0.049 and 0.048, respectively).
Conclusions: This study’s laboratory investigation showed that the SURGERY ICU patients had significantly higher values of inflammatory markers CRP and LDH than the non-SURGERY ICU patients. LDH and CRP were superior and effective biomarkers in predicting the severity of COVID-19.

Demarcações Epistemológicas: a Fronteira entre Ciência e Metafísica na Obra de Karl Popper
Authors: Costa de Freitas Jan Clefferson
Published: August 2024

Este artigo apresenta uma análise e descrição das deliberações de Karl Popper para a demarcação epistemológica entre ciência e metafísica, com foco particular sobre a relevância metodológica do seu princípio de falseabilidade. Popper defendeu que uma teoria deve ser considerada científica apenas se for passível de refutação por meio de testes empíricos. Este critério sugere que a capacidade de um sistema teórico ser empiricamente testado e contestado tem um caráter fundamental para garantir a objetividade do conhecimento científico. Sendo assim, com base em uma metodologia multilateral que combina revisão bibliográfica, leitura aproximada e escrita criativa, o presente trabalho tem por finalidade investigar e evidenciar os critérios epistemológicos que permeiam o conjunto das ideias hipotético-dedutivas de Karl Popper. Em poucas palavras, o resultado idealizado nesta aventura conceitual consiste na demonstração teórico/empírica das importantes contribuições do pensador contemporâneo à filosofia da ciência.

Published: August 2024

This paper presents the findings from an embedded theory-based evaluation of a participatory peace-building initiative implemented in the Kangaba region of Mali as part of the ‘Vestibule of Peace’ project. The project used Systemic Action Research (SAR) to first support diverse members of selected local communities to collect and analyse life stories through mapping the systemic drivers of conflict. This causal analysis motivated the generation of collective solutions to selected drivers through facilitated Action Research Groups (ARGs). The SAR approach, as an alternative, participatory approach to peace-building, aimed to engage and empower local actors to build their agency as they define and negotiate innovative pathways to achieve peace.

This research discusses the Status of Children Outside of Marriage and its Relevance to the Renewal of Islamic Family Law in Indonesia. This research aims to find out specifically how the status of children outside of marriage and its relevance to the reform of Islamic Family Law in Indonesia. The method used in this research is the method of collecting data through library research. Data is collected by collecting information from various sources of literature, such as books, journals, magazines, and so on. From this research, it can be concluded that the scholars agree that children born out of wedlock have family ties both with the mother and her family. This is also the case in the laws and regulations governing marriage law in Indonesia which stipulate that the only civil relationship of children born out of wedlock is with the mother and her family. Nevertheless, the plaintiff permitted the Constitutional Court to conduct a judicial review, especially to ensure that her child was given permanent legal status and accepted by the defendant's family. After the respondent disputed the existence of the child and ignored the child's civil rights, including payment of monthly living expenses and school fees, the plaintiff was forced to take legal action. Thus, the Constitutional Court decided to partially grant the petitioners' claims based on the reasoning of the Panel of Judges. It was an extraordinary ijtihad when the Constitutional Court issued a new ruling on the status of children born out of wedlock. The Constitutional Court's decision is supported by arguments that are in the public interest (al-mashlahah al-'ammah), including protecting the future of children and providing a deterrent effect on men who have free sex so that adultery does not become commonplace. At least today, we can observe that legal progress in Indonesia also considers vulnerable groups, especially children.
