The study was aimed to compare the corrosion of stainless-steel hand K-file and Nickel-titanium rotary instrument following immersion in 5.25% NaOCL irrigation solution, in vitro. A total of 20 new Nickel-titanium (NiTi) rotary files and 20 stainless steel (K file) was selected and immersed in 5.25% NaOCL irrigation solution. All files were subjected to the corrosion test: Record the open circuit potential (OCP) for 1 h on a strip chart with high impedance. The strip chart recording for each file was classified into a stability score: (i) stable, (ii) unstable, or (iii) erratic. The percentage of OCP was measured by a potentiostat and a standard calomel electrode reference. The frequencies of visually observed corrosion were further investigated by scanning electron microscope (SEM). The results of the present study confirmed that stainless steel file showed greater corrosion rate than that of NiTi files. Additionally, both files had pitting and crevice corrosion, as seen by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis. However, NiTi files demonstrated a lower rate of corrosion than stainless steel files. In conclusion, NiTi files showed greater corrosion resistance than that of stainless-steel files.
A FEMINIST EXPLORATION OF MEDEEA IANCU’S POETRY
Authors:   University of Bucharest, Faculty of Letters, YUNUSOĞLU ANDRADA
Published: September 2024

Since 2010, ideology has become more present in Romanian contemporary literature, denouncing the literary canon and its function in nowadays society. Female authors started to be more committed to a feminist agenda, which resulted into a process of (re)claiming female identities and experiences and also creating new forms of defining what being a woman means. After the 1989 Romanian revolution, artists finally use their right to freedom of speech, being more involved into the social and political aspects of art and society. In this paper, I shall focus on Medeea Iancu’s poetry, analysing her discourse and how she develops a feminist agenda in Romania. I shall also point out the fact that her discourse evolves from Divina tragedie [The Divine Tragedy] (2011) and Cîntarea care a biruit toate cîntările [The Song that Overcame All Songs] (2015) to what is known as a feminist manifesto in Delacroix este tabu: Suita romînească [Delacroix is Taboo: The Romanian Suite] (2017) and Delacroix este tabu: Amendamentele lirice [Delacroix is Taboo: The Lyrical Amendments] (2019). Nevertheless, in this research I shall showcase the aspects that are representative for the feminist literary movement in Romania, focusing mainly on Medeea Iancu, as she embodies the image of the feminist poet.
RENDERING THE BEST RESULTS INTO ROMANIAN – A MATTER OF TYPOLOGICAL VARIATION
Authors:   University of Bucharest, Faculty of Foreign Languages and Literatures, DRĂGAN RUXANDRA
Published: September 2024

English (Germanic) and Romanian (Romance) are typologically different in the expression of both change-of-location and change-of-state events (cf. Talmy 1985, 2000). English favours Goal of Motion (GM) and resultative constructions, which combine manner verbs with directional PPs and Result Phrases, respectively; Romanian typically opts for inherently directed motion and change-of-state verbs to achieve the same goals. At the same time, the existing typological differences have been shown to impact both the translation strategies rendering change events, and the syntactic structures they produce (Slobin 2004, 2005, 2006; Capelle 2012; Alonso 2018 et al.). The present article examines the strategies used by professional translators to translate resultatives into Romanian, and the resulting syntactic patterns, shown to be dependent on the type of resultative translated (fake/true). It demonstrates that the mostly compensatory techniques generate structures which, overall, reflect Talmy's lexicalization patterns for Romance and support the uniform treatment of GM and resultatives crosslinguistically. It also argues that the higher syntactic/semantic variation of resultatives (vs. GM) is responsible for the higher number of strategies and patterns translating them.

Published: September 2024

In order to reduce the environmental pollution and the dependence on fossil fuel resource which is depleting, the utilization of waste vegetable oils for preparation of valuable products are of concern.  Four ionic liquids triethyl ammonium carboxylate ([TEA][WO]), octyl ammonium carboxylate ([OcA][WO]), trialkyl methyl ammonium carboxylate ([Aliquat][WO]) and n-octyl methyl imidazolium carboxylate ([OMIM][WO]) were synthesized from four different nitrogen compounds and fatty acids of waste vegetable oils. The influence of some parameters such as solvent, reaction temperature, reaction time and molar ratio of acid and nitrogen compound (NC) on ionic liquid synthesis yields was investigated. The results show that the structure of nitrogen compounds effects on the synthesis performance and governs the parameters of processes. This is due to the nitrogen compounds as starting materials control not only their activity in reaction with fatty acids but also the solubility and the melting points of corresponding ionic liquids. Certain suitable conditions were chosen for each ionic liquid.

Predictive analysis of lactate clearance on the prognosis of patients with large burns
Authors: Ma Yanli , Wu Pei , Wang Xiaomin
Published: September 2024

Aims: To examine burn shock monitoring and the connection between lactate clearance and shock prognosis in individuals with severe burns. Materials and methods: This retrospective analysis comprised 100 patients with significant burns treated in our hospital between August 2017 and August 2021. The patients were split into two groups based on whether they survived or not: 50 cases each in the survival and death groups. Both groups had their blood lactate levels, partial pressure of oxygen, and other relevant indices tested. Analysis was done on the correlation between lactate level, lactate clearance, and death as well as the association between lactate clearance and prognosis at each time and point. Results: The lactate clearance rates at 6 h, 12 h, 24 h and 24 h in the survival group were greater than those in the death group, and the differences were significant (p < 0.05). The lactate clearance rates at each time point were compared at a cut-off of 20%, and patients with 6 h and 12 h blood lactate clearance rates ≥20.0% had lower prognostic morbidity and mortality rates than those <20.0%, with a significant difference (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Lactate clearance is directly correlated with the prognosis of patients with severe burns, and survivors also have a high clearance rate. As a result, in patients with severe burns, lactate clearance monitoring during the shock phase can improve prognostic prediction and enable early treatment plan modification based on outcomes.
Comparative analysis of biomechanical patterns in sprinting: A machine learning approach to optimize running performance in track athletes
Authors: Burenbatu Burenbatu
Published: September 2024

Athletes’ success in field and track competitions has been reported to be determined by their sprinting skills. Therefore, it is crucial to understand what biomechanical and physiological factors contribute to the most effective sprinting attributes. The scientific research on sprint evaluation has predominantly dealt with discrete metrics simultaneously, avoiding the interplay between multiple factors as the sprint progresses. Incorporating all the factors that could potentially influence the impact of excellent sprint ability is the primary objective of the present study. This research investigates the biomechanics of sprinting using a Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) hybrid approach, focusing mainly on factors like stride length, ground reaction forces, joint angles, and muscle activation patterns. The hybrid Machine Learning (ML) model accurately identifies between the two groups, and the results indicate that sprinters performing at the national level have more extended movements, higher reaction time to ground forces, and improved joint angles. The research project set up a 20-meter track for the race, and 30 participants, divided 50-50 between two distinct groups that included comparable college-level and national-level performers, participated. With a 92.4% accuracy, 90.2% precision, and 90.9% F1 score, the hybrid approach performed better than standard models in predicting optimum sprinting patterns. The higher efficiency is caused by phase-specific changes that the model unattended, such as enhanced knee angles and joint accelerated motion in the swing phase. In comparison, the SVM model, though respectable, lags behind with an accuracy of 85.7% and a lower precision and recall (82.4% and 80.9%, respectively). The RF model performed better than SVM with an accuracy of 88.1% and a balanced F1-score of 86.8% but still fell short of the CNN-LSTM hybrid. The standalone LSTM model performed relatively well, with an accuracy of 89.3% and an F1 score of 88.1%, showing its capability but still not matching the hybrid model’s performance.

A broker is defined as an intermediary between bothparties, sellers and buyers who mutually pledge or enter into a contract to offer any goods/objects, including a plot of land. The size of the income earned by the broker depends on his efforts and good work. If the broker can sell land with good work, then the broker's income will also be large. However, sometimes the price agreed upon by the broker and the buyer does not provide the right information to the land owner at the broker's request.
In this research, the author uses qualitative research methods by identifying, describing and analyzing the distribution of brokers' profits in a sale and purchase transaction of a plot of land. As an intermediary between sellers and buyers of land, accepting and servicing every job in order to use their services as an intermediary, apart from that, a broker sometimes has the task of checking the validity of the certificate itself. In this case, a broker plays a very important role in selecting potential buyers.

Published: September 2024

This study investigates the direct impact of sellers' ethical behavior "SEB" in traditional markets on tourists’ souvenir purchase intention "TPI", as well as the indirect role of ethnocentrism "ETHNO" on the relationship between the other two variables. Self-administered surveys were provided to a randomly selected sample of tourists as part of the research, which used a quantitative technique. Structural equation modeling (SEM) analysis of 474 valid responses showed substantial positive correlations between "SEB" and "TPI", with "ETHNO" also having a positive effect on "TPI". The study also proved that "ETHNO" moderates the relation between "SEB" and "TPI". These insights offer souvenirs' sellers and policy-makers insightful advice on how to adapt their behaviors and marketing strategies to enhance the overall shopping experience and cater to the diverse cultural preferences of tourists.
Assessing Precipitation Impact on Vegetation Using Satellite Data and Remote Sensing Techniques: A Case Study of Yakawalang-Afghanistan
Authors: Hedayat Sayed Jawad , Yosufi Mohammad Kazem
Published: September 2024

Water is essential for all living creatures, including humans. Precipitation directly impacts plant growth; adequate water supply promotes sufficient growth, while drought conditions lead to inadequate growth and plant desiccation. This research investigates the effects of precipitation on vegetation in the Yakawalang District. The study utilizes NDVI vegetation data from the MODIS Terra satellite and precipitation data from the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) system. This study employed the non-parametric Mann-Kendall test to identify changes in the obtained data. The research covers the period from 2010 to 2020. Our findings indicate an increasing trend in precipitation and vegetation in the Yakawalang District during the study period. Interestingly, 2010 recorded the lowest precipitation (277 mm) but the highest vegetation index (0.100). Conversely, 2015 saw high precipitation (510 mm) but the lowest vegetation index (0.079). Further analysis of temperature data for 2015 suggests that low temperatures may have inhibited vegetation growth despite increased precipitation. This research concludes that precipitation alone does not guarantee increased vegetation. Other factors, such as appropriate temperature, are crucial in vegetation growth. These findings underscore the complex interplay of environmental factors in plant development and highlight the need for comprehensive approaches to understanding and managing vegetation dynamics.

Published: September 2024

African Traditional Medicine (ATM) is one of the oldest forms of health care systems that has stood the test of time. The advent of COVID-19 and other epidemics such as Ebola and Marburg call for urgency for Africa to meet its increasing need and demand for pharmaceutical products and tackle persistent lack of access to essential medicines. The aim of this briefing paper is to highlight the different stages that pharmaceutical manufacturing in Africa has gone through. The brief uses the literature review methodology to highlight the various changes from the pre-colonial period, colonial period and post-colonial or post-independence era. This brief indicates that in pre-colonial African society health problems were taken care of in the household using African Traditional Medicine (ATM). However, the coming of Europeans marked a turning point of this age-long tradition and culture. The introduction of Western medicine and culture undermined and stigmatized the traditional health care system in Africa. Colonial states used both civil and criminal laws to challenge and marginalize most forms of African therapeutics. However, no matter how dominant colonial medical systems became in sub-Saharan Africa, they never entirely usurped traditional forms of healing practices already present. Therefore, medical pluralism became the norm even when colonial services received the lion’s share of resources and protections and set the terms of debate for what constituted acceptable medical practice. In post-independence Africa, concerted efforts were and are being made to recognize traditional medicine as an important aspect of health care delivery system, recognizing the value of African technology, knowledge and culture denied by white rulers during their years in control. In recent decades there has been a resurgence in use of traditional therapeutics coupled with calls for Africa and African states to develop capacities in pharmaceutical manufacturing and integration of traditional medicines to improve access to medicines and health care systems. Ѩ We conclude that Africa needs to transform its traditional and complementary medicines into a frontier for pharmaceutical innovation and production to meet its ever-growing needs for sustainable access to medicines. This will be achieved through targeted investments across the pharmaceutical value chain with emphasis on collaboration across the continent

Residual Deformity and Outcome in Non-Surgically Treated Tibial Shaft Fractures in Adolescents Nearing Skeletal Maturity
Authors: Mutia Josiah Paolo , Apalisoc Angeli Charmeinn
Published: September 2024

Background. Anatomic reduction is crucial to avoid malalignment in tibial shaft fractures in adolescents approaching physeal closure. While surgical treatment is becoming more common, casting and immobilization are still widely done for appropriately selected fractures. Local radiographic and clinical outcomes of non-surgical treatment need to be explored.
Objective. The primary objective of this study was to report residual lower limb deformity of tibial shaft fractures treated non-surgically in adolescents nearing skeletal maturity. The study also identified factors or fracture characteristics that may predict these deformities and reported the clinical outcomes using the Lower Extremity Functional Scale (LEFS).
Methodology. This was a cross-sectional study of 31 adolescents nearing skeletal maturity at the time of injury with acute closed tibial shaft fractures treated non-surgically at the Philippine Orthopedic Center from 2017 to 2020. Skeletal maturity and residual sagittal & coronal angulation were analyzed through radiographs. Rotational alignment and leg length discrepancies were evaluated clinically. Functional outcome was measured using the LEFS.
Results. Coronal plane angulation (r = -0.397; p = 0.05) and leg length discrepancy (r = -0.394; p = 0.05) were inversely correlated with LEFS scores. Coronal plane angulation was also correlated with ipsilateral fibular fractures (p = 0.007). LEFS scores were 79.39 on average (range 75 to 80).
Conclusion. Among adolescents nearing skeletal maturity with isolated acute tibial shaft fractures, closed reduction and casting followed by close monitoring remains useful and effective.

Redefining Home: Adaptive Transnationalism in the Migration of Tatar Women from Russia to Kazakhstan
Authors: Sakurama Nakamura Mizuki
Published: September 2024

This study explores the experiences of Tatar women who migrated to Almaty, Kazakhstan following Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022. Employing theoretical frameworks of transnationalism and intersectionality, we analyze these women's migration experiences, religious practices, and identity formation processes. Based on in-depth interviews with ten Tatar women migrants, the research reveals how they navigate multiple identities, maintain and transform transnational connections, and construct new forms of belonging in their host society. Our findings demonstrate that these women are not merely navigating between two worlds, but actively creating new, transnational ways of being. Their stories highlight how migrants creatively adapt to new environments, negotiate multiple identities, and form communities that transcend traditional national and ethnic boundaries. Drawing on these insights, we propose a new conceptual framework of "Adaptive Transnationalism," which captures the dynamic process through which migrants actively reshape their identities, practices, and social connections in response to new cultural contexts, while maintaining and transforming ties to their places of origin. This framework offers a fresh perspective on how migrants actively shape their experiences and identities across borders, providing a valuable tool for navigating the complexities of modern migration and fostering more inclusive and adaptive societies.

Published: September 2024

Schizophrenia is a chronic and severe psychiatric disorder characterised by the manifestation of positive and negative symptoms and/or cognitive dysfunction. Treatment typically includes psychotherapy, sociotherapy and pharmacological therapy, which consists of the use of typical and atypical antipsychotic drugs, as well as dopaminergic system stabilisers. Although they do not provide a cure, these treatments can reduce the intensity and frequency of symptoms, resulting in improved quality of life and a quicker reintegration into social life. Thus, the aim of the present study was to conduct a narrative literature review on the clinical evolution of antipsychotic use throughout history, as well as to discuss potential new drugs that are still in clinical research. Studies have shown that typical antipsychotics are effective in treating positive symptoms but have no impact on negative symptoms and can even exacerbate or provoke them. Additionally, they produce highly limiting side effects, such as movement disorders. Atypical antipsychotics, on the other hand, are capable of reducing both positive and negative symptoms, and they also present fewer side effects related to the extrapyramidal motor system. However, they tend to cause metabolic disturbances. Conversely, dopaminergic system stabilisers also treat both positive and negative symptoms, with side effects that are generally better tolerated, along with a lower propensity to cause weight gain and motor disturbances. It is worth noting that many patients are unable to tolerate the various adverse reactions of the available antipsychotics. Moreover, some patients are or become refractory to their therapeutic effects. Consequently, there is currently a focus on developing new agents that have different pharmacological targets. Some of these potential new drugs have shown efficacy in refractory patients, representing a potential paradigm shift in the treatment of the disorder.

Using Kelly’s theory to explore student teachers’ constructs about their pupils
Authors: Touw Hanne M. F. , Meijer Paulien C. , Wubbels Theo
Published: September 2024

This study builds on and adapts a procedure to reveal teachers’ constructs about their pupils and a method to categorise these constructs. Kelly’s Personal Construct Theory (PCT) and his accompanying repertory grid technique are used to study the constructs of Dutch student teachers about their pupils. The elements used to elicit the constructs consisted of the student teachers’ entire class. Seven categories were used to categorise the constructs: Attitudinal, Emotional, Relational, Personal, Intellectual, Interests and Physical. In addition to Kelly’s original technique, the student teachers were asked to provide descriptions of their construct and contrast poles. These descriptions facilitated reliable coding.

Short-term Traffic Flow Prediction Based on KELM Optimized By Improved Slime Mould Algorithm
Authors: Zhao Ming , Tang Jian , Chang Guo-Qing
Published: September 2024

Traffic flow prediction plays a crucial role in improving transportation efficiency and enhancing Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). However, the temporal, spatial, and nonlinear nature of traffic flow data presents challenges for accurate short-term prediction. We propose a short-term traffic flow prediction model based on Kernel Extreme Learning Machine (KELM) optimized by the improved Slime Mould Algorithm (SMA). KELM is an improved version of Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) that incorporates kernel functions for improved generalization and stability. SMA is a meta-heuristic algorithm inspired by the behavior of slime mould in foraging, known for its strong global searching ability. For better performance, three strategies are introduced: the Good Point Set method for optimizing the initial population, the combination of Opposition Based Learning (OBL) and Differential Evolution (DE) to improve the slime mould generation mechanism, and the use of adaptive t distribution mutation to enhance convergence speed. After comparing the performance of these improved SMAs on twelve test functions, the ISMA improved by integrating three strategies as mentioned above is best. Then the ISMA is applied to search for the optimal parameters of KELM model. Finally, the optimized KELM with optimal parameters is applied to predict the short-term traffic flow on given traffic data set. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed model, KELM optimized by ISMA namely ISMA-KELM, outperforms existing models such as Random Forest (RF), Least Squares Support Vector Machine (LSSVM), KELM optimized by Tuna Swarm Optimization Algorithm (TSO-KELM), and KELM optimized by SMA (SMA-KELM) in terms of traffic flow prediction accuracy. The proposed model ISMA-KELM provides a promising approach for addressing the challenges of traffic flow prediction, offering improved accuracy and efficiency in real-time traffic management systems.
A Study on Doctor Recommendation Model in Medical Guidance Services

Published: September 2024

In medical guidance services, it is of great significance to match the appropriate department and doctor by digging deeper into patients’ demands. However, accurate matching of doctors requires the ability to locate the exact department based on the text of the patients’ chief complaint, and then select the matching doctor by considering the patients’ condition, the doctor’s professionalism, and the patients’ preference. To this end, this paper proposes a department classification model on the basis of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) as well as Robustly optimized BERT approach (RoBERTa) with an attention mechanism. The model firstly extracts the patients’ chief complaint texts features by convolution layer, and then introduces the attention mechanism to assign different weights to different features. Subsequently, these features are fused with the features extracted by RoBERTa for classification. In addition, this paper proposes a doctor recommendation algorithm that considers both patient similarity and patient preference. Through the in-depth analysis on the patients’ condition claims, various weights are assigned to various influencing factors, and then the matching degree is calculated to achieve the accurate recommendation of doctors. The experimental results reveal that the proposed department classification model’s accuracy on the dataset is 93.4%, and the Normalized Discounted Cumulative Gain (NDCG) of the doctor recommended algorithm is 90.7%. In this way, the proposed model effectively improves patient-doctoral matching with excellent performance.
Development of Sensor Data Fusion and Optimized Elman Neural Model-based Sign Language Recognition System
Authors: Liang Yijuan , Jettanasen Chaiyan
Published: September 2024

The sign language recognition system has placed an important role in disabled people’s lives. The researchers utilize various methods to fulfill disabled people’s requirements. However, the methods fail to access their sign at a reasonable cost with minimum computational difficulties. The improper sign access causes a reduction of the sign language recognition accuracy. Therefore, this study uses the sensor of wearable devices to capture people’s motions and actions to identify sign language. The collected information is fused into a competition level that understands disabled people’s requirements. After that, fused information is processed by the Pareto Optimized Hypertuned Deep Elman Neural Model (POHDENM). In addition, the data augmentation process is incorporated to train the data, which helps to recognize the large volume of sentences. Here, the fused information is split into words processed by the neural model that recognizes the sign language features. The extracted features are analyzed by an optimized method that recognizes the language with maximum accuracy. During the analysis, network parameters are hyper-tuned with the help of the Pareto model, which reduces the misrecognition error rate. Then, the created system efficiency is evaluated using the experimental analysis. The POHDENM approach achieves a high accuracy of 97.86% and an F1-score of 98.08%. The model’s high performance is achieved by fine-tuning its hyperparameters using the Pareto optimization algorithm, which balances precision of 98.06% and recall of 98.12%.

Wireless communication is a convenient but not secure transmission media. For internet application, such as E-commerce, there are a lot of private information existed. To protect the secret information inside and to set up a secure communication becomes an urgent topic. The purpose of a perfect communication system is to ensure the authentic destination could correctly and successfully receive the exact desired information from the transmitter. Also, the system with authorization and authentication could protect the transmitted information away from the eavesdroppers. Generally, the encryption scheme is applied to. Although these methods have been employed in the system for the security, those unexpected and advanced attackers have been continuously developing. Error-free cryptogram based on Shannon’s theorem could provide a solution for the information security. It could be implemented with physical-layer security coding scheme. In this paper, the cypher generator is proposed with physical-layer coding scheme. The cypher format includes two parts. One is the prefixed code and the other is error-control code. The major purpose of prefixed code is the key to find the position indexing of code in the cypher. In this cypher generator, the interleaver plays a role to disturb the original data. It increases the degree of difficulty to break the cypher. With cryptanalysis, the practical example of LDPC is given. With AI technology, the advanced algorithm might be developed for cypher coding and decoding.
