Authors: Jamalpour Yousef
Published: January 2023

Over the past few decades, conduct disorder has increased rapidly. However, few studies have been conducted on the role of interpersonal cognitive distortions and dysfunctional attitudes in this kind of disorder. This is a causal-comparative study. The research statistical population is composed of all the adolescents with conduct disorder living at Esfahan’s Centre for Rehabilitation and Training in 2021. Also, research sample size encompasses a total of 60 adolescents: 30 adolescents with conduct disorder and 30 normal. Two groups were matched regarding the age, sex and educational level. The research tools were three questionnaires on demographic characteristics, interpersonal cognitive distortion and dysfunctional attitude scales. Data were analyzed by Multivariate Regression. According to the research data analysis, there was not a significant difference between two groups with regard to the misconception mean scores in interpersonal relations and interpersonal cognitive distortions. However, mean scores of adolescents suffering from conduct disorder in rejection with interpersonal relations, unrealistic expectations, and dysfunctional attitudes were significant (P<0.05). According to findings of the study, it seems that dysfunctional attitudes and interpersonal cognitive distortions are effective in causing disorders. Thus, by providing grounds for psychological interventions, conduct disorder can be treated with better results.
A Retrospective Cohort Study on Chronic Opioid Use After Geriatric Hip Fracture Surgery—Risk Factors, Trends, and Outcomes
Authors: Stone Julia M. , Pujari Amit , Garlich John , Lin Carol
Published: January 2023

Introduction:

The purpose of this study is to identify the risk factors for prolonged opioid use after surgery in geriatric hip fracture patients and the effects of prolonged use on mortality and readmission rates.

Methods:

An institutional registry was queried for all patients older than 65 years who underwent surgical treatment of a hip fracture between January 2016 and June 2017. Using the Controlled Substance Utilization Review and Evaluation System (CURES), we identified patients who had filled an opioid prescription within 3 months of hospital admission as opioid exposed and patients without a history of opioid use as opioid naïve (ON).

Results:

Of 500 patients who underwent hip-fracture surgery during the study period, a total of 322 had complete Controlled Substance Utilization Review and Evaluation System data. 36.0% (116) were OE, and 64.0% (206) were ON. 23.0% (74) patients filled an opioid prescription 6 months after surgery, 59.5% (44) were OE, and 40.5% (30) were ON. OE and patients on antidepressants were more likely to continue opioids at 6 months. Age, sex, fracture pattern, implant, benzodiazepine use, smoking, and alcohol status were not notable risk factors for prolonged opioid use. Antidepressant use was a risk factor for readmission within 90 days. Previous opioid exposure predicted mortality within 6 months.

Discussion:

Opioid use in geriatric hip fracture patients is high both preoperatively and postoperatively. Opioid exposed patients and patients on antidepressants are more likely to continue opioids at 6 months. A substantial proportion of ON patients became prolonged opioid users. Although prolonged opioid use postoperatively did not increase the risk of readmission or death, antidepressant use predicted readmission and previous opioid exposure predicted mortality. By identifying predictors of prolonged postoperative opioid use in geriatric hip fracture patients, we can better prepare physicians and their patients on what to expect in the postoperative period.

Published: January 2023

Polymer compounds such as Natural Rubber (NR), which consists of compounds such as isoprene, are capable of being processed for the manufacture of a range of rubber based products for a large variety of applications. The properties of a natural rubber compound are susceptible to enhancements in their properties through the incorporation of nanofillers into its matrix. This study addresses the preparation of a natural rubber based nanocomposite that utilizes graphene as a nanofiller for the facilitation of the required enhancement in the rubber compounds properties. The nanocomposite specimens used in the study were prepared by means of acid-coagulation. The acid-coagulation formulation utilized was adapted from methodologies employed in commercial applications. The enhancement in the rubber properties due to the incorporation of the nanofiller was validated by means of mechanical testing. Prior to the testing, the applicable standard for tensile property testing was identified to be ASTM D412. Through the acclaimed standard, a mould to facilitate the preparation of the required specimens was 3D printed from PETG. The primary aim of the study was to determine the effect of large concentrations of graphene (beyond 2.5wt %).The results from the mechanical testing of the acid-coagulated samples exhibited enhancements in the elongation at break and tensile strength between unfilled NR and the graphene filled NR nanocomposite. With the incorporation of 5wt% of graphene, the elongation at break of the rubber increased to 687%, showing a 25% increase. The tensile strength of the rubber increased to 4.07 MPa, showing an enhancement of 102% in comparison to the pristine rubber compound.

Authors:   Sri Lanka Institute of Information Technology, Herath Chamara , Amarasingha Niranga
Published: January 2023

Hundreds of pedestrians have died and many have been injured in the past decades as a result of Red Light Running (RLR) infractions. According to the United States Department of Transportation, 846 pedestrians have died and 143,000 have been injured in 2019 due to RLR violations. The majority of previous studies have focused on pedestrian behavior at an intersection, whereas only a few have looked into pedestrian RLR violations. The main objectives of this research are to find the pedestrians’ RLR rate in Sri Lanka and to find ways to reduce the RLR rate of pedestrians at the signalized crossing. Video observation surveys were conducted to collect data at three signalized intersections within Kandy city limits during weekdays for two hours per site. Pedestrian demographic variables such as gender and age; crossing characteristics such as crossing type, direction, crossing speed etc; and site characteristics such as crossing length, pedestrian green time, etc. were recorded. Chi-square and binary logistic regression tests were done. Results showed that out of 178 females, 130 had compliance with signal phases and out of 386 males, only 215 had compliance with RLR of a pedestrian. Furthermore, other independent variables such as age, crossing type, direction etc. were also associated with compliance RLR of pedestrians under Chi-square results. Based on the results of binary logistic regression, the variables such as gender, crossing type, number of traffic lanes, and pedestrian speed are significant when decreasing the log of probability -0.658, -3.040, -1.022 and -2.556 of compliance for RLR respectively. Variables that crosswalk utilization are also significant when increasing the log of probability of RLR 1.406 of compliance for RLR. The results would help develop safer pedestrian infrastructures and engineering countermeasures as well as assist the researchers and practitioners in better understanding pedestrian crossing behavior at signalized intersections.

Published: January 2023

The purpose of this study was application of age- and gender-related differences in mandibular condyle CT values on multidetector-row computed tomography imaging to osteoporosis screening.
The mandibular CT images of 327 patients were analyzed retrospectively. The ovoid-shaped region of interest contouring was manually performed on both sides of the mandibular condyle on axial images to determine the mean CT value. The Klemetti index (KI) for each patient was categorized into C1, C2 and C3 based on coronal CT images.
The mean CT values of the mandibular condyle were decreased with age in both males and females. The mean CT values of the mandibular condyle also decreased as the KI progressed.
Our result suggested that the mean CT values of the mandibular condyle may be a new predictor for screening osteoporosis on multidetector-row computed tomography images.
Do Exchange Rate and Inflation Matters to Nigerian Economy? New Evidence from Vector Autoregressive (VAR) Approach
Authors:   Department of Economics, Faculty of Social and Management Science, Adamawa State University, Mubi, Nigeria, A. M. Usman Mohammed
Published: January 2023

Currency fluctuations and inflation are the natural norm for most major economies. Numerous factors influence economic growth, including a country’s exchange rate system performance, the outlook for inflation, and interest rate differentials. These are the most significant factors that hinder the economic growth of every nation. As a result, this analysis investigates the impact of exchange rate and inflation on Nigeria’s growth performance from 1986 to 2021. Impulse response and variance decomposition were estimated. The real gross domestic product (RGDP) was used as a proxy for growth performance, while the inflation rate (IFNR), real exchange rate (REXR), and interest rate (INTR) were also used as proxies. The results of impulse response and variance decomposition estimates in the short-run (third quarter) and long-run (tenth quarter) show that real exchange rate D(REXR), INTR, and IFNR all have a positive impact on RGDP variation, with values of 13.38%, 31.88%, and 22.40%, respectively, in the third quarter. In the long run (the 10th quarter), REXR contributed approximately 28.76% of the variation in RGDP. The interest rate contributed 24.14%, while the IFNR has contributed about 28.27% of the variation in RGDP in the long run. Therefore, summing the contributions of REXR, INTR, and INFR to RGDP, these variables contributed about 81.17% of the variation in RGDP in the long run. Hence, the research concluded that REXR, INTR, and IFNR have a positive effect on growth performance as proxied by RGDP in Nigeria within the period of the research. The research recommended that the government should provide a policy that will reduce the excess growth of aggregate demand (AD) in the economy, which will reduce inflationary pressure, in order to achieve the sustainable development goals (SDGs) of 2030 in Nigeria, which include restoring economic growth and macroeconomic stability through macroeconomic variables such as the exchange rate, inflation, and other significant variables.

With the development of the rural community group buying mode, it has also become a new way to help, benefit and rejuvenate agriculture under the background of "rural revitalization". Many places sell farmers' own products through community group buying platforms to achieve poverty alleviation and rural revitalization. With the overall promotion and development of "rural revitalization", the rural consumer market is changing rapidly. Nowadays, community group buying in many first tier and second tier cities has become increasingly competitive with the help of capital. In contrast, most rural areas are still in the initial stage. In combination with the consumption habits of rural residents, consumption pain points and the demand of production side and demand side connection, we found that the rural community group buying has a high degree of fit with the rural consumer market. With the market sinking and the introduction of a series of inclusive policies, the promotion and use of community group buying in rural areas will receive more help. Rural community group buying is becoming a new direction and new force to revitalize rural development. It has broad prospects and is worth looking forward to.

The development of China's economy towards high quality requires that the manufacturing industry must speed up the pace of structural adjustment, carry out technological innovation and master the core technology. This paper constructs the knowledge production function in the form of double logarithm linear, studies the relationship between human capital, R&D investment and manufacturing technology innovation through the patent determination equation and new product determination equation, and divides the technology innovation process into two stages: technology development and technology achievement transformation. The empirical results show that the promotion effects of human capital and R&D investment in manufacturing technology development and technological achievements transformation are different. In the process of technology achievement transformation, R&D investment has a better promotion effect, while in the technology development stage, human capital has a better promotion effect. After adding control variables, the regression results of human capital and R&D investment are still robust. On the basis of theoretical assumptions and empirical analysis, this paper puts forward relevant countermeasures and suggestions for manufacturing technology innovation.
