Authors: Esmaeili V , Boostani H , Ahmadpour F
Published: May 2023

ABSTRACT

Background:

Bone tissue engineering offers several advantages for repairing skeletal defects. In this study, we designed and fabricated a scaffold for bone tissue engineering in patients with horizontal alveolar defect.

Aim:

The items included in the fabrication of the scaffold were xenogenic bone graft, gelatin as a substrate to improve the physical integrity of scaffold, and simvastatin to stimulate osteogenesis (10 mg per 1 g of xenograft).

Methods:

Fourteen patients with a horizontal defect in the alveolar ridge were enrolled in the study. Seven patients underwent routinely guided bone regeneration (GBR) using xenogenic bone graft plus collagenous membrane, and seven patients were treated with the scaffolds. After four months of follow-up after surgery, both the scaffold and GBR groups were examined for changes in the width of alveolar ridge and histologically for the quantity of newly produced bone.

Results:

The newly designed scaffold showed superior osteoconduction characteristics to routine GBR materials, which were used in this study. The difference in the quantity of the newly produced bone between the scaffold group and GBR group was significant and higher for the scaffold group. Regarding newly produced bone percentage, the scaffold group showed a mean of 20.93 and the GBR group presented a mean of 13.25% (P = 0.004). Also, the mean value for the duration of surgery for GBR was 45 minutes and for scaffold was 22 minutes, which was significantly lower in the scaffold group (P < 0.001).

Conclusions:

The newly designed scaffold is a suitable treatment modality for bone tissue engineering.
Iterated and mixed discriminants
Authors: Dickenstein Alicia , Di Rocco Sandra , Morrison Ralph
Published: May 2023

Classical work by Salmon and Bromwich classified singular intersections of two quadric surfaces. The basic idea of these results was already pursued by Cayley in connection with tangent intersections of conics in the plane and used by Schäfli for the study of hyperdeterminants. More recently, the problem has been revisited with similar tools in the context of geometric modeling and a generalization to the case of two higher dimensional quadric hypersurfaces was given by Ottaviani. We propose and study a generalization of this question for systems of Laurent polynomials with support on a fixed point configuration.

In the non-defective case, the closure of the locus of coefficients giving a non-degenerate multiple root of the system is defined by a polynomial called the
mixed discriminant
. We define a related polynomial called the multivariate
iterated discriminant
, generalizing the classical Schäfli method for hyperdeterminants. This iterated discriminant is easier to compute and we prove that it is always divisible by the mixed discriminant. We show that tangent intersections can be computed via iteration if and only if the singular locus of a corresponding dual variety has sufficiently high codimension. We also study when point configurations corresponding to Segre–Veronese varieties and to the lattice points of planar smooth polygons, have their iterated discriminant equal to their mixed discriminant.

Age-based stock assessment of globally important species, like bigeye tuna Thunnus obesus (Lowe, 1839), is urgently required to develop appropriate management plans for fisheries sustainability. This study aimed to estimate age and growth parameters using annual increments count of sectioned-otoliths, which effectively employed for age determination of tunas. Samples were collected from Indonesian tuna longline catch landed in the Port of Benoa from March until December 2017. Multi-models were employed to obtain robust growth parameters, and Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) was relied for the best fit model selection among those evaluated. Growth band formation was validated using marginal analysis (MI), indicating that one ring is deposited yearly and slow growth peaked during July (Australian winter). The von Bertalanffy growth model was selected as the best model fitting growth parameters from raw age data, as expressed as Lt = 183.49 (1-e-0.134(t+2.991)). Large variances in growth were detected at the same age, with the oldest age of 15. Over 50% of fish in the Indonesian catch were <5 years old, that may have implications for fisheries sustainability.

Published: May 2023

A real-time system is one that is put through its paces, meaning that it responds within the allotted time frame or fulfills the deadline. There are two sorts of real-time systems: hard and soft. Both are employed in various situations. When using hard real-time systems, even a delay of a few nanoseconds or microseconds is not permitted. Soft real-time systems offer some leeway in the depiction of time. Modern industries rely heavily and extensively on real-time systems. In order to produce the most precise and accurate results, systems are built to operate in real time. Real-time systems have a significant influence on human health and treatment in the realm of medical science. Real-time systems in medical science have saved countless lives and allowed for the more straightforward treatment of complicated diseases. This research proposal is centred on a "Real-time synchronization system for press machines" to regulate the machines for manufacturing if the number of workpieces exceeds and enable or disable the machines, utilizing sensors, controllers, and more parts. This real-time synchronization system is dependable and reasonably priced; it can be applied to industrial settings or other settings. This system has good sustainability; two press tool machines can use the system.

Published: May 2023

Several factors, including sexual knowledge and attitudes, influence sexual behaviours among college students. Scientific research suggests that positive information and attitudes regarding condom use and sexually transmitted infections (STI) have a strong association with protective behaviours. This study aimed to analyze knowledge and attitudes about STIs and attitudes towards condom use. This a cross-sectional study with a representative sample of college students (n = 840) in one university in Portugal. A validated self-reported questionnaire was administered to a proportional stratified random sample of students. By analyzing the sexual risk behaviours of sexually active students in the last 12 months, it was found that 18.7% of respondents reported having two or more sexual partners, 60.1% did not always use or almost always a condom and 32.3% had sexual intercourse after ingesting alcohol or consuming illicit psychoactive substances. The level of knowledge about STI transmission is 3.99±1.194 (6 possible correct answers), and the level of attitudes towards STIs and condom use were moderate. University students present gaps in knowledge and attitudes about STIs and condom use that may condition the adoption of protective health behaviours. These results show the importance of promoting health in higher education, especially in the area of sexuality.

Published: May 2023

In the context of the right to religious freedom. Minority groups have not received serious attention from the upper class, this is evident in the many minority rights that must be fought for. Minority groups are often overlooked or underrepresented in the media, most minority groups play less of a role in television programs. Minority groups are often misinterpreted through prejudices held by the majority. The position of the Indonesian mass media as a social institution in relation to society is very important, where the position of the media has a very power that can be considered to make a better living society. The  wahabi movement is sometimes also associated with salafist groups referring to salafist clerics (earlier Ulama), Wahabi or Salafi marking the movement of Islamic conservatism. This movement is associated by some circles with various radical movements, considering that its approach is often to fictionalize or silence others, so the term Wahabi as a pejorative form, a term that contains negative meanings. The study aims to find out relations of media and minority groups to the existence of Wahhabism in Indonesia. Library research method is used in this study. From the findings in this article which uses a literature study, the relationship between media and minority groups in the existence of Wahabi, it can be seen that the media has experienced media success in partiality towards minority groups. Wahabi who feel part of a minority group, by building and establishing relationships with the media, succeed in bringing about new changes, through the media, their guidance as a minority group their rights are successfully fulfilled.

As a consequence of the globalization era, legal relations between the world community are open and very easy. The International Business Contract is one of the legal relations used to facilitate cooperation between them, but sometimes the ease in cooperation often faces obstacles in the event of a dispute between them, for example wrong one party does not fulfill its promises (achievements). It is quite common that the parties involved in a certain business are faced with disputes resulting from the legal contract they previously made. To anticipate such happenings, they always include choices in the contract clause although they sometimes skip to do so. The lack of such a clause will bring about a problem which is law should they refer to to solve the dispute. This is where the role of a notary is very important in making a choice of law for international business contract. The role of notary is closely related to his authority, namely making authentic deeds. The Method used in normative juridicial research which is carried out as an effort to obtain the necessary data related to the problem. The data source is secondary as consisting of primary legal materials, secondary legal materials, and tertiary legal materials. In addition, primary data is also used to support secondary data legal out using qualitative juridicial analysis methods. From the research results it can be obtained that the choice of law must be determined based on theory and principles in international private law. The role of a notary in making a choice of law for international business contract is limited to providing suggestions or legal counseling on the choice of law.

The implementation of religious court rulings related to the fulfillment of the rights of former wives and children has many obstacles that cause very few rulings to be successfully implemented. The existence of regulations governing the execution of existing rulings is quite outdated because it is still based on the regulations left by the Dutch East Indies Colonial. Breakthroughs in the field of execution such as dwangsom or delays in the pronunciation of talaq pledges to pressure the convicted have not shown significant and optimal results in overcoming this problem. Ideas emerged on opportunities for advances in information technology and integration of population administration that can be used to engineer compliance with the implementation of rulings in realizing the fulfillment of the rights of former wives and children after divorce. The research method used is normative juridical with a legal approach, case approach, historical approach, comparative approach, and conceptual approach. The theories used include Authority Theory as Grand Theory, Legal Protection Theory as Middle Range Theory, and Legal Theory that Engineers Society as Applied Theory. The results of the study are the regulation of the Supreme Court of the Republic of Indonesia regarding the execution of religious court decisions in the implementation of decisions related to the rights of former wives and children after divorce contained in laws and regulations both materially and formally as well as policy regulations. The existence of this legal basis has not been able to effectively guarantee the fulfillment of the rights of former wives and children after divorce. Strengthening the execution of religious courts needs to be carried out as a renewal that is able to overcome the problem of stagnant executions that exist today, especially the existing executions are still unable to be carried out simply, quickly, and at low cost. Strengthening the authority to implement decisions related to the rights of former wives and children by religious courts through the suspension of citizens' rights to the convicted is carried out by utilizing the development of information technology and the integration of population databases to improve compliance and successful execution of religious court decisions. Social engineering by marrying law and information technology will be able to strengthen the authority to carry out executions by religious courts so as to create legal protection that is certain and fair for ex-wives and children after divorce.
