Published: April 2023

The canine distemper virus unleashes ambiguities in Chile. There are academics from our Faculty who have begun to study it and have not yet yielded credible results, there are those who recently obtained funding to "begin" the antigenic and genomic characterization of the virus, and there are others who have described the existence of at least two of the fourteen Described genotypes: American-1 and European-1. The subject is exciting and jokingly he always said that when I am no longer here, even the Faculty will change its name incorporating "and canine distemper", because on that date someone else would take charge of the subject and then it would be interesting to study it. I fell short, it already started...

Published: April 2023

Background: Gum-chewing has been listed as one of many factors that contribute to enhancing recovery after laparotomy due to its effects on postoperative ileus. Objectives: The aim of the study was to compare gum-chewing against controls on the reduction of postoperative ileus among patients undergoing elective laparotomy. Methodology: Consenting patients who had elective laparotomy with gut anastomosis in the Surgical wards of Nnamdi Azikiwe University Teaching Hospital(NAUTH), Nnewi were randomised into Gum-chewing group and Control/ traditional delayed feeding group. In the first Group patients’ Naso gastric tubes(NGT) were left insitu as they chewed gum 3 times a day from 1DPO. Patients in the second group were used as controls and were managed in the traditional way-nil by mouth until passage of flatus or faeces. Assessed outcome measure was time from completion of surgery to passage of flatus and faeces. Results: During the study period, December 2014 to November 2016 (2 years), 70 consenting patients who had elective laparotomy in the Surgical wards were randomised into the two groups- Group 1 (n=34) and group 2 (n=36). The groups were similar in terms of gender, age, surgical procedures, and co morbidity. The age range was 20-81 years. The time from completion of surgery to first passage of flatus was 3.07days for Group 1 and 3.92days for Group 2. Time from completion of surgery to first passage of stool was 4.00days for Group1 and 4.76days for Group2. Time to flatus and faeces was significantly shorter in the Gum-chewing group compared to Controls (p0.05 for both). There were no significant differences noted in the complication rates among the groups. Conclusion: Gum-chewing reduced the length of postoperative ileus significantly

Conclusion: C677T MTHFR polymorphism is not associated with the risk of CML among the Sudanese population
Digital inhibitors in higher education during the COVID-19 pandemic
Authors: Chipo Mutongi  , Tinashe Muchuri
Published: April 2023

The novel Corona Virus (COVID-19) global pandemic has brought vast changes to people’s lifestyles in general and has changed business processes globally. The education systems are not spared from the COVID-19 impact and business delivery procedures. Africa mainly being the consumer of digital goods and services and not necessarily the producer as shown in the centre periphery model was not spared either. This paper explores the effects of COVD- 19 at institutions of higher learning and how they were immensely affected resulting in increased use of the web 2.0. However, the digital learning methods encountered digital inhibitors which include but not limited to accessibility, connectivity, social, geographical, economic, legal and technological digital issues. Challenges faced by the community of higher learning institutions in Zimbabwe embracing the digital learning tools are discussed. Using a qualitative approach, this article interrogates the impact of these higher education digital inhibitors in Africa with special reference to Zimbabwe during and post COVID-19 global pandemic. The research instruments used were online interviews and experiences. It is against this background that the writers unearth digital inhibitors in higher education during the COVID-19 era. Post COVID-19 era cannot be still business as usual. It is recommended that to bridge the gap there is need to consider Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) as basic necessity not a luxury that have too be accessed by all as well as being in a position to operate the tools and having information literacy skills.
Küresel Kamusal Malların Regülasyonunda Yeni Aşama: Regülatör Kapitalizmi
Authors: GÜLŞEN Mustafa Alpin
Published: April 2023

Regülasyonların teorik soyut yapısı, fenomen bir gerçeklik olarak, regülatör kapitalizmi olgusuyla pratikte karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Bu kapsamda regülatör kapitalizmi, toplum ve devlet arasındaki ilişkinin, farklı bir iş bölümü yapısıyla, iş dünyası ve devlet ilişkisine dönüşmesini ifade etmektedir. Bu ise küresel kamusal mal ve hizmetlerin sunumunda küresel regülatörlerin etkin rol oynadığını ifade etmektedir. Çalışmada, regülatör kapitalizminin dönüştürdüğü kamusal örgütlenme modeli bürokrasiden regülokrasiye geçiş şeklinde ele alınmıştır. Regülatör kapitalizminin getirdiği bu başarısızlık çalışmada, regülatör tuzağı çerçevesinde incelenmiştir. Regülokrasi, yeni sistemin uzmanlardan oluşan ve evrensel çözüm yolları bulunan toplumsal katmanını ifade ederken regülatör tuzağı ise regüle eden firmaların bir zaman sonra regüle edici konumuna evrilmesini belirtmektedir. Regülatör kapitalizminin bu yapısı bir taraftan yeni bir iş bölümünü ortaya çıkarırken diğer yandan da toplum ile devlet arasındaki kamusal hizmetlerin hesap verilebilirliğini de belirsizleştirmektedir. Böyle bir muğlaklık ise temsili demokrasinin yerini dolaylı temsili demokrasinin almasına neden olmuştur. Neticede kamu kesimi, şeffaflık hesap verilebilirlik gibi kamu mali yönetim ilkelerinden uzaklaşmıştır.
Türkiye’de Enflasyonun Sigorta Şirketlerinin Performansına ve Prim Üretimlerine Etkileri

Published: April 2023

Bu çalışmada, enflasyon oranlarının giderek hız kazandığı Türkiye’de, sigorta şirketlerinin performanslarının ve prim üretimlerinin enflasyondan nasıl etkilendiği araştırılmıştır. Karlılık oranları için 2006:1-2022:3 ve prim üretimi için de 2008:4-2022:3 dönemlerini kapsayan iki örneklem kullanılarak enflasyonun etkileri incelenmiştir. Analizlerde alternatif zaman serisi teknikleriyle, enflasyon ile karlılık oranları arasındaki kısa ve uzun dönemli nedensellikler araştırılmıştır. Buna ek olarak, başlıca açıklayıcı değişkenin enflasyon oranı olduğu ardışık bağlanımlı regresyon modelleriyle enflasyonun sigorta şirketlerinin performansları ve prim üretimleri üzerindeki etkileri incelenmiştir. Bazı sigorta şirketleri için kimi performans ölçütleri ve prim üretimi açısından enflasyon ile kısa ve uzun dönemli nedensellik ilişkileri belirlenmiştir. Bu ilişkiler genelde enflasyondan prim üretimine doğru tek yönlüdür. Karlılık ölçütleri ve prim üretimi, enflasyondan ya hiç etkilenmemekte ya da pozitif etkilenmektedir. Sigorta şirketlerinin, bir şekilde enflasyonun etkilerinden korunmayı başardığı söylenebilir. Bu durum primlerin enflasyon oranındaki değişmelere göre güncellenmesinden ileri gelebilir. Bir diğer neden de sigorta şirketlerinin etkin bir fon yönetimi ile mali karlılıklarını yükseltmeleri olabilir.

Son yıllarda akademik ve siyasi çalışmalara konu olan iklim değişikliği yanında COVID-19 pandemisi ve Rusya-Ukrayna arasındaki savaş, dünyada gıda güvenliği sorununun tartışılmasına neden olmaktadır. 2022’de dünya çapında gıda fiyatlarında hızlı bir artış ve başta tahıl olmak üzere dünyanın birçok yerinde gıda arz kıtlığı ve kendi kendine yeterlilikte sıkıntılar görülmüştür. Bu çerçevede Dünya Ticaret Örgütü’nün (DTÖ) tarımsal ürün ve girdiler üzerinde devlet müdahalelerine yönelik politikaları da tartışmaya açılması gerekmektedir. İç destekler konusunda düzenlemeler getiren DTÖ Tarım Anlaşması politikaları, gelişmiş ülkelere ve çok uluslu şirketlere avantajlar sunarken, gelişmekte olan ülkelerin başta yerel kalkınmaları olmak üzere kırılganlıklarını artırmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, son yıllarda konjonktürün ve coğrafyanın etkisi ile giderek daha fazla ekonomik ortak haline gelen Türkiye ve Rusya’daki tarımsal alandaki gelişmeler Üçüncü Gıda Rejimi kuralları çerçevesinde analiz edilmiş ve iki ülke arasındaki ticari ilişkiler bu açıdan değerlendirilmiştir. Türkiye, mevcut gıda rejimine göre, ağırlıklı olarak nispeten stoklanamayan, depolama ve raf ömrü kısa olan emek yoğun sebze ve meyve üretiminde üretici ve ihracatçı iken sermeye yoğun hububat, hayvan yemi ve yağlı tohumlarda ise ithalatçı konumundadır. Her ne kadar tarımsal ticaret dengesi fazla veriyor olsa da tarımdaki bu iş bölümü gelecekte Türkiye açısından arz güvenliği ve ithalata bağımlılık yanında sürdürülebilir kalkınma için de riskler barındırmaktadır.

Vegetation map of the “Osinovaya Roshcha” monument of garden art (St. Petersburg)
Authors: Volkova E. A. , Khramtsov V. N.
Published: April 2023

This article continues a series of publications devoted to vegetation mapping of existing and prospective specially protected natural areas of St. Petersburg. The “Osinovaya Roshcha” is a monument of garden art of the late XVIII–early XIX centuries. It is located on the northern border of St. Petersburg in a picturesque kame landscape, where sandy hills alternate with small bogged depressions and lakes. The landscape park of the Levashov-Vyazemsky estate was created in the forested area dominated by spruce, pine and birch. Since the 1780s oak, linden, ash, larch, fir, Siberian, Weymouth and other pines were planted there (Isachenko, 2004). A large-scale map of the actual vegetation of the “Osinovaya Roshcha” park and the adjacent territory was compiled for the first time.

The natural forest, bog and meadow plant communities are characteristic features of the northern part of the area. The broad-leaved and coniferous trees, planted in the central part more than 200 years ago, have formed various plant communities, including mixed stands of local flora species and introduced trees. The southern part of the park is occupied mainly by broad-leaved introduced forest stands.

Vegetation is divided into three sections in the map legend — natural, introduced, and formed by both native and introduced species. Each section represents vegetation types (or groups of types) (forest vegetation, mire vegetation, etc.); then forest communities are subdivided into classes of formations and formations, bog communities — according to the types of water-mineral nutrition. The mapped units are associations, subassociations and their variants, identified according the ecological-phytocoenotic classification. Territorial units — ecological series and combinations of plant communities — were also used in the map legend. Short-term secondary communities formed under various ecological (mainly anthropogenic) factors are subordinate to conventionally primary ones. They are indicated by indices at the legend numbers. Various types of shading were used on the map to distinguish natural and introduced vegetation.

The vegetation map of the “Osinovaya Roshcha” represents a diversity of plant communities: they are forest (spruce, pine, birch) and bog (lowland, transitional, upland) communities typical of the region, as well as old-growth larch (Larix sibirica) and broad-leaved (oak, linden, elm, mixed composition) forests formed by introduced trees. Last ones are rare for the region. The plant community of Carex brizoides, found in the park, is of great interest among the communities of herbaceous plant introducers. This sedge is a rare species for St. Petersburg and the Leningrad region, which probably like the Poa chaixii was used for sodding the park soils.

Exploring the Potential of Using an AI Language Model for Automated Essay Scoring
Authors: Mizumoto Atsushi , Eguchi Masaki
Published: April 2023

The widespread adoption of ChatGPT, an AI language model, has the potential to bring about significant changes to the research, teaching, and learning of foreign languages. The present study aims to leverage this technology to perform automated essay scoring (AES) and evaluate its reliability and accuracy. Specifically, we utilized the GPT-3 text-davinci-003 model to automatically score all 12,100 essays contained in the ETS Corpus of Non-Native Written English (TOEFL11) and compared these scores to benchmark levels. The study also explored the extent to which linguistic features influence AES with GPT. The results showed that AES using GPT has a certain level of accuracy and reliability and could provide valuable support for human evaluations. Furthermore, the analysis revealed that utilizing linguistic features could enhance the accuracy of the scoring. These findings suggest that AI language models, such as ChatGPT, can be effectively utilized as AES tools, potentially revolutionizing methods of writing evaluation and feedback in both research and practice. The paper concludes by discussing the practical implications of using GPT for AES and exploring prospective future considerations.

Examining efficient color transformations to forecast plant emergence phases
Authors: Hamed Riwiz
Published: April 2023

Starting with the earliest algal mats and progressing to the sophisticated gymnosperms andangiosperms (flowering plants) of today, the evolution of plants has produced a broad range ofcomplexity. Reconstructing the ancestral forms and traits of various lineages is one of thedifficulties in researching plant evolution. Colorspaces are mathematical representations of huesthat include hue, saturation, and brightness as numerical values. Among other computer visionapplications, colorspaces have been shown to help enhance image classification performances. Plantcolor patterns can be examined using colorspaces to deduce their evolutionary history and purposes.Colorspaces, for instance, can be used to spot the convergent evolution of flower hues amongvarious plant groups that have mutual pollinators. Additionally, colorspaces can aid in the detectionof cryptic variations in foliage coloration that might indicate environmental adaptation. Colorspacesare therefore helpful tools for researching plant evolution at various scales and stages.

Ecosystem services from regenerative agriculture
Authors: Dinesh G K , kill  , DEEZNUNTS
Published: April 2023

Regenerative agriculture has recently attracted much attentiondue to its ability to provide a wide range of advantages to producers and the environment, (Schreefel et al., 2020). With this type of farming, the goal is to improve the health of the soil and increase its ability to support natural functions like animal habitat, water filtration, and food security (Rhodes, 2017).Regenerative agriculture differs from organic farming in the fact it emphasizes restoring soil health and the ecosystem that surrounds it, rather than focusing only on soil health and the problem of soil degradation. Beyond just producing goods, restorative agriculture aims to establish a strong and resilient farming system. This essay will examine the advantages of regenerative agriculture's ecological functions.

Direction of Possible Multi-folds Corrections to the W Boson Mass
Authors: Maes Stephane
Published: April 2023

A recent paper shook the Physics community with claims that the W boson mass estimates, obtained from earlier experiments at the Tevatron, indicate that it would be 0.1% heavier than expected from the SM, with a 7 sigma accuracy. It is argued that, if true, it would be the first really convincing sign of limitations of the Standard Model (SM). Many popular articles have already followed, and we expect many papers to be published on the subject.In this paper we repeat our past comments that it is never too wise to bet against the SM: chances are big that this could be a fluke like many others before. Yet, just in case that the mass discrepancies were true, we look at what can be predicted in terms of the mass of the W boson in the context of the SMG, where gravity effects are non-negligible at the scales of the . We show that, at the difference of the effect on fermions, that we previously discussed, in SMG , a combination of the masses of the Z and W bosons are expected to be slightly larger, while the Weinberg angle θW decreases, hence possibly justifying the direction of the reported result.It all confirms our motto that, in particle Physics, New Physics is often not that new. The SMG is enough to qualitatively explain the larger mass of the W boson, no need for new particles, new forces or supersymmetry.In a multi-fold universe, gravity emerges from Entanglement through the multi-fold mechanisms. As a result, gravity-like effects appear in between entangled particles, whether they be real or virtual. Long range, massless gravity results from entanglement of massless virtual particles. Entanglement of massive virtual particles leads to massive gravity contributions at very smalls scales. Multi-folds mechanisms also result into a spacetime that is discrete, with a random walk fractal structure and non-commutative geometry that is Lorentz invariant and where spacetime nodes and particles can be modeled with microscopic black holes. All these recover General Relativity (GR) at large scales and semi-classical models remain valid till smaller scale than usually expected. Gravity can therefore be added to the Standard Model (SM) resulting into the SMG. Of course, The SMG may also exist in non-multi-fold universes.

Genetic determinants of long dimensions of the body of volleyball players as prognostic criteria for sports selection and orientation
Authors: viaScience
Published: April 2023

In order to predict the growth rate of long-length body dimensions in volleyball and basketball players, the methods of anthropometry, somatotyping according to Heath-Carter 1989, and genetic HLA typing were used in the research. In the group of athletes with a body length of 160-170 cm, HLA-A2 haplotypes turned out to be a specific genetic marker, with a frequency of occurrence (0.361), HLA-A3 (at 0.328). In the group of athletes with a body length of 180 -190 cm, specific genetic markers were identified associated with a specific haplotype HLA-A9 with a frequency of occurrence (0.228), HLA-A28 with a frequency of occurrence (0.330); from the HLA B-13 complex at (0.138), HLA B-35 at (0.138). Established genetic markers that predict the rate of growth processes have a selective value in the process of selection and sports orientation.

Normality and the Treatment-Enhancement Distinction
Authors: Martín Daniel , Rueda Jon , Earp Brian D. , Hannikainen Ivar Rodríguez
Published: April 2023

There is little debate regarding the acceptability of providing medical care to restore physical or mental health that has deteriorated below what is considered typical due to disease or disorder (i.e., providing “treatment”—for example, administering psychostimulant medication to sustain attention in the case of attention deficit disorder). When asked whether a healthy individual may undergo the same intervention for the purpose of enhancing their capacities (i.e., “enhancement”— for example, use of a psychostimulant as a “study drug”), people often express greater hesitation. Building on prior research in moral philosophy and cognitive science, in this work, we ask why people draw a moral distinction between treatment and enhancement. In two experiments, we provide evidence that the accessibility of health-related interventions determines their perceived descriptive or statistical normality (Experiment 1), and that gains in descriptive normality for such interventions weaken the moral distinction between treatment and enhancement (Experiment 2). In short, our findings suggest that the tendency to draw a moral distinction between treatment and enhancement is driven, in part, by assumptions about descriptive abnormality; and raise the possibility that normalizing novel biomedical interventions by promoting access could undermine people’s selective opposition toward enhancement, rendering it morally comparable to treatment.
How the R package `simsem` Can Be Useful in Simulation Studies of Large-Scale Assessments
Authors: Jorgensen Terrence D. , Schoemann Alexander M.
Published: April 2023

Latent variable models (e.g., IRT or SEM) are popular analytic techniques utilized with Large-Scale Assessment (LSA) data, and Monte-Carlo simulations are often used to plan such studies (e.g., determining sample size, evaluating robustness of test statistics). The free, open-source R package simsem was developed to aid users in conducting and analyzing Monte Carlo simulations in a latent variable framework. The simsem package can generate data and fit models with either the lavaan or OpenMx packages, or custom functions may be provided by the user (e.g., using Mplus via the MplusAutomation package, or using the mirt package for IRT analyses). In this presentation we will demonstrate the basic framework of a Monte Carlo simulation in simsem, highlighting features relevant for LSA data. Features will be highlighted in the context of detailed examples, provided in a vignette available at simsem.org. We will summarize the examples to discuss how simsem can facilitate implementing Monte Carlo simulations for LSA data with any combination of several features: using discrete item responses via factor analysis with a threshold model, weights and survey attributes, plausible values, and missing values handled via full-information maximum likelihood (FIML) or multiple imputation.
Money for a brighter future: resolving occupational stigma in finance through repertoires of a common good
Authors: De Keere Kobe , Burchartz Luisa
Published: April 2023

Financial occupations are simultaneously associated with prestige and stigma. This study investigates how finance novices draw upon field-specific repertoires to deal with occupational stigma. We analyzed both company career webpages (N: 120) and conducted interviews with sector novices recruited at Dutch, international business schools (N: 29) to unpack (1) which repertoires are mobilized to justify working in finance and (2) how these correspond to field logics. We distinguish between three scripts that re-imagine finance work as contributing to a common good, with strong correspondences between organizational and individual repertoires: (1) importance of giving back to society, (2) promoting a stakeholder model to limit the excesses of capitalism, and (3) claiming that finance is pivotal in building a more sustainable future.
Interpreting Events Involving Police: Liberals, Conservatives, and Moderates in the Face of Ambiguity
Authors: Collett Jessica L. , Pierce Kayla D. R.
Published: April 2023

We show political divisions in perceptions of police officers even before the divisive political and social events of 2016. We do so using 517 MTurk respondents’ interpretations of surprising and ambiguous headlines involving police officers (e.g., assumptions about what happened or who was involved). We constructed the headlines using affect control theory’s ABO event structure and derivations of this structure. The headlines describe ostensibly good people (A) doing bad things (B) to other good people (O) or are ambiguous on one or more of these components. We find that police headlines generate interest among readers. When interpreting events, respondents are less likely to modify or redefine police officers compared to other actors However, assumptions related to ambiguous events involving police differ by political orientation. Liberals view police more negatively than conservatives, in part because they imagine them doing worse things to slightly better people. Qualitative analyses support and shed light on the mechanisms underlying this and other partisan effects.
What are the chances? Clinician scientist` career pathways in Germany.
Authors: Hendriks Barbara , Reinhart Martin
Published: April 2023

BackgroundGermany faces a lack of clinician scientists. This problem is widely acknowledged, not just in Germany, as clinician scientists are crucial for medical translation and innovation: trained in medical practice and research they are capable of translating scientific problems into clinical application and vice versa, clinical problems into research. The implementation of nationwide clinician scientist programs (CSP) in Germany is supposed to solve the lack of trained clinician scientists and, as consequence, to improve the translational relationship between biomedical research and clinical practice. Against the backdrop of an increasing number of CSP, our study provides early insights into their effectiveness with a focus on what it means to become a clinician scientist and to establish a subsequent career path as a clinician scientist in Germany. Methods:During a three-year research project, funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research, we studied thirteen clinician scientist programs. We developed a qualitative questionnaire and interviewed clinician scientists in training, their program supervisors, as well as policy stakeholders. The goal of the interviews was to identify the key obstacles in establishing a career path for clinician scientists in Germany.Results:We find that CSP improve working conditions for the duration of the program and provide protected time for doing research. After the programs, however, the career paths remain unstable, mainly due to a lack of target positions for clinician scientists. CSP support the initial development of the clinician scientist’ role, but not in a sustainable way, because the separation of research and patient care is stabilized on an institutional and systemic level. The tasks clinician scientists perform in research remain separate from patient care and teaching, thus, limiting their translational potential. In order to remain a clinician scientist within this differentiated system of university medicine, clinician scientists have to do a significant amount of extra work. Conclusion: We found three types of challenges for establishing and ensuring long term career paths for clinician scientists: First, local working conditions need to allow for clinician scientists to create and perform tasks that combine research, teaching, patient care and translation synergistically. Protection from the urgency of patient care and from metrics-based performance measures both in the clinic and in research seem key here. Second, a stable career path requires new target positions besides clinic management and senior residency. Third, there is a need for cultural change within university medicine that recognizes and rewards new translation-focused practices.
