Entropy of causal diamond ensembles
Authors: Jacobson Ted , Visser Manus R.
Published: July 2023

We define a canonical ensemble for a gravitational causal diamond by introducing an artificial York boundary inside the diamond with a fixed induced metric and temperature, and evaluate the partition function using a saddle point approximation. For Einstein gravity with zero cosmological constant there is no exact saddle with a horizon, however the portion of the Euclidean diamond enclosed by the boundary arises as an approximate saddle in the high-temperature regime, in which the saddle horizon approaches the boundary. This high-temperature partition function provides a statistical interpretation of the recent calculation of Banks, Draper and Farkas, in which the entropy of causal diamonds is recovered from a boundary term in the on-shell Euclidean action. In contrast, with a positive cosmological constant, as well as in Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity with or without a cosmological constant, an exact saddle exists with a finite boundary temperature, but in these cases the causal diamond is determined by the saddle rather than being selected a priori.

Published: July 2023

Pain in the cervical spine is a widespread condition that significantly disrupts the quality of life, often leads to disability and requires significant economic costs. The most common type of neck pain is nonspecific (vertebrogenic cervicalgia). The most frequent (in 36–67% of cases) anatomical source of nonspecific neck pain is considered to be the lesion of the intervertebral facet joints. Tests to determine the anatomical sources of nonspecific pain are unreliable, in addition, their detection does not significantly affect treatment. Degenerative changes of the spine are often detected during neuroimaging, depend on age, but do not correlate with clinical symptoms and severity of symptoms. In the absence of red flags of anxiety and negative results of neurological examination, neuroimaging or laboratory methods of research are not required. An assessment of prognostic factors is important. Factors contributing to chronization include: female sex, old age, high intensity of pain at the onset of the disease, the presence of psychosocial problems. Modern classifications, the basics of diagnosis, treatment and prevention of nonspecific neck pain are given. Modern effective methods of treatment are physical therapy, manual therapy and psychological programs, a multimodal approach to treatment is optimal. There is a very low level of evidence for electrotherapy, traction, laser therapy, acupuncture, dry needle treatment, thermal or cold procedures. The use of drug therapy is recommended, both separately and in combination with other methods of treatment. The most effective painkillers for neck pain are non-opioid analgesics – NSAIDs and paracetamol. The use of cervical orthosis is not recommended. Clinical cases of patients with acute and chronic nonspecific neck pain are described. The effectiveness of an integrated approach to the management of this category of patients, in accordance with modern recommendations, is shown. The treatment included drug and non-drug methods (therapeutic gymnastics, educational conversation). Dexketoprofen was used as pharmacotherapy according to a step-by-step regimen.
Interdisciplinary treatment including cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness for chronic migraine and drug-induced headache
Authors: Golovacheva V. A.
Published: July 2023

The presented clinical case describes the management of a patient with chronic migraine (CM), drug-induced headache (LIH), and generalized anxiety disorder. It shows the influence of genetic factors (hereditary predisposition to the development of addiction, anxiety disorder), biological factors (migraine attacks from adolescence, overuse of painkillers), psychological factors (stress, development of generalized anxiety disorder, pain catastrophizing), social factors (lack of rational supportive family environment) on the clinical picture of CM.

A modern, evidence-based approach to the preparation of a treatment plan for a patient with CM and concomitant LIH and generalized anxiety disorder has been demonstrated. The interdisciplinary plan was developed and successfully applied for the treatment of the patient. It included withdrawal of painkillers, due to which LIH developed, symptomatic pharmacotherapy for the withdrawal period, an alternative drug for the relief of headache with a limited number of doses and dosage frequency allowed to the patient, prophylactic pharmacotherapy for CM, pharmacotherapy for the concomitant generalized anxiety disorder, and psychological methods such as cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and mindfulness. Recent studies showed that mindfulness helps patients with LIH successfully overcome the period of painkiller withdrawal, the effectiveness of mindfulness is  comparable to the effectiveness of preventive pharmacotherapy during the period of pain killer withdrawal. Mindfulness therapy was included in the structure of the CBT sessions. The CBT helped to replace the patient's misperceptions of her disease and maladaptive behaviour towards pain and anxiety with alternative, realistic ideas about her disease, adaptive behaviour towards pain and anxiety. The interdisciplinary treatment resulted in the conversion from chronic to episodic migraine, regression of LIH, and significant improvement of her emotional state in just 3 months. At the 12-month follow-up the treatment showed a persistent positive effect.
Comorbidity in back pain

Published: July 2023

A significant problem of modern medicine is the presence of several diseases in the same patient, which complicates not only the diagnosis of each of them, but also therapy. It is necessary to distinguish between the terms “comorbidity”, “multimorbidity” and “polymorbidity”. The principles of therapy for comorbid patients differ from those for patients with mononosology. А large number of Russian and foreign studies have shown that patients with chronic pain syndromes, including chronic back pain, often have a number of comorbid conditions. In particular, in patients with osteoarthritis, which is one of the most common causes of back pain, diseases of the cardiovascular system, lungs, gastrointestinal tract, diabetes mellitus, and obesity are more often recorded. The article describes a clinical case of a patient with the simultaneous presence of several diseases: myofascial pain syndrome, peroneal tunnel neuropathy, diabetes type 2, polyosteoarthritis, joint hypermobility syndrome, herniated disc, obesity. At the same time, some of these diseases are comorbid, while the other part is a multimorbid disease, which must be taken into account when making a diagnosis and selecting therapy. In addition, the described case from practice illustrates the priority of the clinical method of examining a patient over paraclinical ones. The choice of pharmacological drugs and non-drug methods of treatment recommended to the patient was dictated by the mixed nature of the pain. A non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, SYSADOA, and a muscle relaxant have been recommended to combat non-specific musculoskeletal pain. Neuropathic pain treatment, in accordance with clinical recommendations, the following groups of drugs were included: gabapentinoids, vitamins B, anticholinesterases.

Published: July 2023

O presente estudo versa sobre o patrimônio territorial, contemplando uma abordagem multidisciplinar e multidimensional, aportando referências teórico-metodológicas sobre a dimensão produtiva de forma sistêmica e articulada com as demais dimensões. O objetivo é contextualizar teoricamente a dimensão produtiva na dinâmica territorial do desenvolvimento e propor indicativos metodológicos que possam embasar um instrumental metodológico multidimensional a ser utilizado na realização de estudos de diagnóstico, análise e prospecção territorial. O diagnóstico tem seu foco na caracterização socioeconômico-cultural e ambiental e a análise propõe-se a detectar as forças, oportunidades, fraquezas e ameaças, enquanto a prospecção territorial avalia as alternativas de futuro de um determinado recorte territorial, seja este um território, uma região ou um município. Esta abordagem metodológica baseia-se em diferentes vertentes e teorias do desenvolvimento territorial que resgatam conceitos como: sistemas produtivos locais, sistemas agroalimentares localizados, economia social e solidária, cesta de bens e serviços territoriais, dentre outros. Reconhece-se, todavia, que o desenho do indicador da dimensão produtiva, neste estudo, não abarca a variedade de conceitos e vertentes do campo do desenvolvimento territorial. O que se propõe com o presente texto é apontar possibilidades e caminhos analíticos para a dimensão produtiva ante a ativação do patrimônio territorial.

A dimensão social compreende as diferentes relações e estruturas constituídas pelos seres humanos nas interações que estabelecem entre si e com a natureza. No artigo busca-se aprofundar as discussões sobre a dimensão social, a partir da abordagem territorial do desenvolvimento. Apresenta-se os pressupostos teórico-metodológicos que orientam a reflexão em relação aos componentes centrais da dimensão social: as relações de trabalho e acesso aos bens e serviços produzidos nas sociedades; as formas de organização e interação que marcam as diversas sociedades específicas e os valores, normas e estruturas sociais das sociedades. O texto está organizado em duas seções: na primeira, busca-se detalhar os componentes, delimitar as variáveis que são capazes de demonstrar os aspectos básicos de cada componente e indicar os instrumentos propostos para a coleta dos dados a respeito de cada variável escolhida; na segunda, apresenta-se a escala de mensuração da ativação do patrimônio territorial, bem como o Índice da Dimensão Social. A reflexão sobre a dimensão social, em estudos centrados no patrimônio territorial, evidencia a necessidade de se trabalhar com grandes componentes e variáveis, a partir de uma abordagem interdisciplinar, multidimensional e multiescalar, atenta às grandes transformações nas sociedades mundiais e capaz de perceber as manifestações dos diferentes atores e o desenho dos diversos cenários

Available Assistive Technology Outcome Measures: Systematic Review (Preprint)
Authors: Borgnis Francesca , Desideri Lorenzo , Converti Rosa Maria , Salatino Claudia
Published: July 2023

BACKGROUND

The World Health Organization claimed that measuring outcomes is necessary to understand the benefits of assistive technology (AT) and create evidence-based policies and systems to ensure universal access to it. In clinical practice, there is an increasing need for standardized methods to track AT interventions using outcome assessments.

OBJECTIVE

This review provides an overview of the available outcome measures that can be used at the follow-up stage of any AT intervention and integrated into daily clinical or service practice.

METHODS

We systematically searched for original manuscripts regarding available and used AT outcome measures by searching for titles and abstracts in the PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases up to March 2023.

RESULTS

We analyzed 955 articles, of which 50 (5.2%) were included in the review. Within these, 53 instruments have been mentioned and used to provide an AT outcome assessment. The most widely used tool is the Quebec User Evaluation of Satisfaction with Assistive Technology, followed by the Psychosocial Impact of Assistive Technology Scale. Moreover, the identified measures addressed 8 AT outcome domains: functional efficacy, satisfaction, psychosocial impact, caregiver burden, quality of life, participation, confidence, and usability. The AT category Assistive products for activities and participation relating to personal mobility and transportation was the most involved in the reviewed articles.

CONCLUSIONS

Among the 53 cited instruments, only 17 (32%) scales were designed to evaluate specifically assistive devices. Moreover, 64% (34/53) of the instruments were only mentioned once to denote poor uniformity and concordance in the instruments to be used, limiting the possibility of comparing the results of studies. This work could represent a good guide for promoting the use of validated AT outcome measures in clinical practice that can be helpful to AT assessment teams in their everyday activities and the improvement of clinical practice.

Basic elements to consider in lexical access research with bilinguals and second-language learners
Authors: Rodríguez Lázaro Alma Luz
Published: July 2023

Este artículo propone una visión crítica acerca de la caracterización de los bilingües y del acceso al léxico para investigadores en el área de la adquisición del lenguaje. Diversas perspectivas teóricas se han interesado por la adquisición del lenguaje y el uso del lenguaje en poblaciones bilingües. Estas perspectivas han descrito cómo el procesamiento cognitivo de las palabras que los bilingües conocen es diferente al procesamiento de los monolingües; asumen que el contexto y el uso de la lengua en un aprendiente de segundas lenguas y en los bilingües son similares, así que estos factores no siempre se consideran cuando se definen a estos dos tipos de usuarios de lengua. Este artículo brinda una perspectiva sobre los elementos básicos que deben considerarse en el estudio del procesamiento al acceso léxico de los bilingües y de los aprendientes de segundas lenguas.
Ingresos públicos y ciclos económicos en México: un análisis de cambio estructural
Authors: Mejía Reyes Pablo , Ochoa Díaz Sandra , Sánchez Peña Gina
Published: July 2023

El objetivo de este documento es analizar la relación entre los ingresos públicos y los ciclos económicos (elasticidad-producto) en México durante el periodo 1980.I-2018.III tomando en cuenta la posibilidad de cambios estructurales. Para ello, se estiman modelos econométricos bivariados en los que los diferentes tipos de ingresos públicos dependen del indicador del ciclo. Los resultados muestran que efectivamente hay cambios estructurales en las relaciones estimadas que se pueden identificar con modificaciones en la política tributaria y con las variaciones en los precios y la plataforma de exportación de petróleo. Una implicación importante de nuestros resultados es que los ingresos públicos totales son altamente dependientes de los impuestos al ingreso y al consumo, algo que debe considerarse en una posible reforma fiscal en combinación con la magnitud de las relaciones estimadas para el periodo reciente.

Authors: Cerón Vargas José Arturo , Reyes Hernández Miguel Santiago , Muñoz Alonso Fernando , Gutiérrez Pozos Jorge Alberto
Published: July 2023

La hipótesis central del proyecto considera que la presencia y contagios del SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-2019) se ha estado desarrollando bajo un patrón sistemático, es decir, no de forma aleatoria; existiendo zonas específicas del país en donde se concentra, primordialmente por el tamaño de la población que habita en dichos municipios, pero adicional, correlacionado con variables del entorno (sociales y económicas) que han determinado la gravedad de los efectos de la enfermedad en dichos territorios. Los resultados de esta investigación permiten comparar e identificar “puntos calientes” de contagio por COVID-19 de enero 2021 a enero 2022, no sólo por el tamaño de la población, sino por las condiciones sociales en que vive dicha población y con ello, observar los impactos de la enfermedad en el tiempo.

Sago starch is extracted from the stems of the sago palm, Metroxylon sagu, in south-east Asia. Sago starch processing generates approximately 20 tons of starch containing effluents that can be recovered and marketed to sustain a small-scale industry. Tangential flow filtration (TFF) using microfiltration membranes (MFM) has been demonstrated as an effective method for separating suspended solids in biological effluents. When TFF was applied to concentrate sago starch suspensions (SSS), membrane permeability and lifecycle were impacted due to frequent fouling. This study evaluated cleaning methods to recover the permeability and extend the lifecycle of MFM following TFF application. Polysulfone membrane filter cassettes of pore size 0.45 µm and surface area 0.1 m2 were each used to separate starch in 100 L of SSS. Following separation, six chemical and physical cleaning methods were tested at laboratory-scale and the degree of cleaning was measured by normalized permeate flux (NPF) and normalized water permeability (NWP). The results showed that soaking the membranes in a 0.2 M NaOH solution (up to 91%, (p<0.05) within the shortest time of 72 h, (p<0.05) was the best cleaning method. The procedure has been utilized to maintain and extend the lifecycle of the MFM for streams containing starch suspensions.

La evaluación como proceso educativo ha tomado gran importancia ya que este proceso implica una de las etapas fundamentales en la actividad formativa. Por esta razón, este artículo pretende analizar la evaluación formativa y cómo esta promueve el desarrollo e implementación de estrategias que favorezcan los procesos de enseñanza-aprendizaje que se derivan de una educación contextualizada, de alta calidad, que corresponda a las necesidades educativas de los estudiantes y responda a las exigencias y expectativas de la comunidad. Para este proceso, se realizó un ejercicio analítico de artículos de investigación para sustentar la posición que relaciona la importancia de la evaluación en la educación desde un punto de vista formativo y no como un mecanismo de represión o castigo. Finalmente, se concluyó que la evaluación formativa permite a los docentes valorar y repensar su práctica pedagógica y a su vez promover aprendizajes contextualizados en los estudiantes y motivarlos para su aprendizaje.
Cross-Cultural Mentorship in Military Family Medicine: Defining the Problem
Authors: Harris Lisa M. , Pierre Elyse Fiore , Almaroof Nofisat , Cimino Francesca M.
Published: July 2023

Background and Objectives: Mentorship is critical to physician recruitment, career development, and retention. Many underrepresented in medicine (URiM) physicians experience minority taxes that can undermine their professional objectives. Use of cross-cultural mentoring skills to navigate differences between non-URiM and URiM physicians can make mentorship relationships with URiM physicians more effective. This survey examined military family physician demographics and mentorship practices.
Methods: Design and Setting: Cross-sectional study using voluntary, anonymous data from the 2021 Uniformed Services Academy of Family Physicians (USAFP) Annual Meeting Omnibus Survey. Study Population: USAFP Members attending 2021 Virtual Annual Meeting. Intervention: None. Statistical analysis: Descriptive statistics and χ2 tests.
Results: The response rate to the omnibus survey was 52.9%, n=258. More than half of respondents did not have a URiM mentee and had not collaborated with a URiM colleague on a scholarly activity within the last 3 years. Only 54.7% of respondents could recognize and address minority taxes. URiM physicians were more likely to have a URiM mentee (65.4% vs 44.4%, P=.042) and to recognize and address minority taxes (84.6% vs 51.3%, P=.001). They also were more confident (84.6% vs 60.3%, P=.015) and more skilled in discussing racism (80.8% vs 58.2%, P=.026).
Conclusions: Structured programs are needed to improve knowledge and skills to support cross-cultural mentorship. Additional studies are needed to further evaluate and identify implementation strategies.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the use of Leeuwen inclusion theory in the news as for the stages used by researchers are (4M) Reading, Understanding, Marking, and Analyzing. In stage (1) the researcher reads the news in the Pikiran Rakyat newspaper, (2) the researcher understands the discourse that is available in the newspaper (3) the researcher marks the discourse to be analyzed and (4) the researcher analyzes the discourse that has been marked based on Lee's inclusion theory. In this study researchers used a qualitative method of describing the findings of data that researchers had discovered. Based on the results of the study it can be concluded, Leeuwen's inclusioan theory found in four criminal news titles with the theme of "corruption" in the People's Mind Newspaper and January 2019 edition of Tribun Jabar amounted to three of the seven existing theories, namely objectivity, Determination, and assimilation -individualization. So, it can be concluded in writing criminal news with the theme of "corruption" Journalists still hide actors. The concealment of actors by journalists is done by using passive sentences in the headline.

The aim of the study is to use the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) technique to identify and rank the factors affecting customer satisfaction with mobile payment services in the Jordanian market, where little research has been done on post-adoption behaviour. By gathering data from experts and analyzing the results, the study seeks to determine the relative importance of various factors, such as app quality, cost, trust, and social influence, in shaping customer satisfaction. The literature is rich with studies on the adoption of mobile payment services in developing countries. However, little attention has been paid to post-adoption behaviours, such as customer satisfaction. Additionally, the use of multi-criteria decision-making techniques, such as AHP, to rank factors affecting mobile payment service satisfaction is rare. Our literature search identified 17 factors, and we gathered data from 12 experts, which was sufficient for the AHP technique. The results revealed that app quality was the most critical factor affecting satisfaction, followed by cost, usefulness, trust, information risk, security, social influence, ease of use, performance, credibility, privacy, reliability, responsiveness, customer attitude, confidentiality, assurance, and feedback mechanism.
An integrated ancient Chinese philosophical perspective on corporate governance
Authors: Sun Tingting
Published: July 2023

Although the concept of corporate governance began with the emergence of corporations, the concept of governance can be traced back to ancient China. Currently, discussions of this topic focus mainly on the differences between approaches to and theories about corporate governance and examine their effectiveness, an integrated view that draws on Chinese theories and cultures is missing. This paper attempts to address the gaps by conceptually synthesizing insights from ancient Chinese philosophies to construct an integrated framework; it further defines the legal and ethical constraints while incorporating both an ancient Chinese (i.e., Eastern) philosophical perspective and Western governance elements and both national-level and firm-level variables. Drawing on institutional theory (Scott, 1995, 2004, 2008a, 2008b) and considering the interaction of legal and ethical constraints, a model — the ethical-legal model — constructs and categorizes corporate governance approaches into four types driven by different types of institutions and compares how these approaches are related to different governance perspectives (agent, stewardship and stakeholder). An autonomous (Wu Wei) governance approach is trigged when the cognitive institution is formed as a result of high levels of both legal and ethical constraints and drives autonomous corporate governance with a shift in focus from compliance to commitments
The procedural rights in tax administrative legislation system: Evidence of the emerging economy
Authors: Belegu Besard , Fejzullahu Artan
Published: July 2023

Procedural rights in the tax administration deal with the rules and procedures that help citizens and businesses comply with their tax obligations to the state. “The tax administration system consists of state bodies that have the right to collect revenues for the budget, and a set of rules and regulations that govern the tax procedure in the country” (Temchyshyna, 2022, p. 206). This study aims to treat the procedural rights in tax administration in theoretical aspects and comparative aspects, through Balkan countries. The research model was based on qualitative research, based on normative method, comparative method, analytic method, and descriptive method, all of these methods based on credible sources, like legal acts, scientific papers, official reports from official bodies, and non-government organizations. Furthermore, this study aims to make a review analysis of the procedural rights that are missing in the tax administrative legislation system in Kosovo, identify and treat the theoretical aspects of procedural rights of taxpayers in tax administration in general, and analyze challenges of tax administration in actuality and general. The main findings of the study show that the Tax Administration of Kosovo has made great progress by modernizing itself and simplifying its procedures for tax-paying citizens.
'Amid: Islamic Integrative Approach as Survey Model

Research and development require tools to approach and obtain an overview of the system, these tools include interviews, questionnaires, surveys, observations, and others. QS An-Nahl Verse 43 is a popular verse that is widely used to represent appropriate to ask, this terminology is closely related to what is known as a sample. However, in contrast to the sample, the meaning intended by the verse is beyond the scope of the sample, in this study, it is termed as 'Amid. In market research, such as research on how well educational products are produced by universities, the number of response rates affects the conclusions that are built, so the sampling approach does not correlate well. The research uses 'Amid, as an approach model that is able to increase the response rate and at the same time the best reference in questioning the assessment of higher education products that are the object of research. The study found that the 'Amid' model has more quality data than the commonly used survey approach with a better travel time. The next research is suggested to try the implementation of the 'Amid' model in market research for other products.
Anestesia en perros braquicefálicos: manejo preventivo de complicaciones frecuentes
Authors: M Ceballos
Published: July 2023

La mortalidad perianestésica en perros braquicefálicos es mayor fundamentalmente a las particularidadesrespiratorias y digestivas que presentan. Una adecuada estadificación de los mismos, para determinar elriesgo anestésico es fundamental a fin de establecer la estrategia anestésica adecuada. La preparación delpaciente debe estar focalizada en disminuir la incidencia de vómito y regurgitación. El manejo de la víaaérea debe ser planificado, ya que la posibilidad de presentar una vía aérea dificultosa y compleja es factible.La mayor tasa de complicaciones ocurre en la recuperación donde la extubación debe ser realizada en formatardía. Considerar tener todo preparado para re-anestesiar y re-intubar ante signos de obstrucción de la víaaérea. La oxigenoterapia humificada en el postoperatorio es fundamental, así como la posibilidad derequerir de nebulizaciones con vasoactivos, para disminuir la inflamación de la mucosa. El edemapulmonar no cardiogénico puede ser una causa de insuficiencia respiratoria aún unas horas después de laextubación.

L-Hexoses are key components of many biologically relevant natural
products and pharmaceuticals. As rare sugars, L-hexoses are not readily
obtained from natural sources. Access to L-hexose building blocks from
commercially available and inexpensive D-sugars is highly desirable from
the viewpoints of organic synthesis and drug discovery. As demonstrated
by the convenient preparation of L-glucosyl, L-galactosyl, and
L-mannosyl fluorides from readily available β-D-C-glucosyl,
β-D-C-mannosyl, and β-D-C-galactosyl derivatives, we describe a novel
and efficient approach to the demanding L-glycosyl fluorides. The
transformation features the installation of anomeric hydroxymethyl group
under mild conditions and head-to-tail inversion of sugar rings through
radical decarboxylative fluorination of uronic acids. The power of this
protocol is highlighted by the first assembly of a pentasaccharide
repeating unit of Pseudomonas ATCC 31554 extracellular polysaccharide
(S-88). This synthesis relies on the efficient extension of sugar chain
at the sterically hindered hydroxy group and the facile introduction of
L-mannosyl unit using L-mannosyl fluoride as glycosylating agent. The
methods developed in this work would provide new tools to the arsenal of
synthesis of L-sugar building blocks and of assembly of glycans
containing L-sugar moieties.
