Removing Pathoanatomical Content From Information Pamphlets About Knee Osteoarthritis Did Not Affect Beliefs About Imaging or Surgery, but Led to Lower Perceptions That Exercise Is Damaging and Better Osteoarthritis Knowledge: An Online Randomised Controlled Trial
Authors: Lawford Belinda J. , Bennell Kim L. , Hall Michelle , Egerton Thorlene , Filbay Stephanie , McManus Fiona , Lamb Karen E. , Hinman Rana S.
Published: December 2022

OBJECTIVE: Compare the effects of osteoarthritis information, with or without pathoanatomical content, on people's beliefs about managing osteoarthritis.

DESIGN: Online randomized controlled trial involving 556 participants.

METHODS: Participants considered a hypothetical scenario where their doctor informed them that they had knee osteoarthritis. Participants were randomized to a control condition, where they received currently available osteoarthritis information with pathoanatomical content or an experimental condition, where they received the same osteoarthritis information but without pathoanatomical content. Primary outcomes were participants' beliefs about the need for x-ray to confirm diagnosis and joint replacement surgery in the future.

RESULTS: There were no between-group differences in primary outcomes for x-ray (mean difference [MD], −0.3; 95% confidence interval [CI]: −0.9, 0.4) and surgery (MD, −0.2; 95% CI: −0.7, 0.2), each rated on an 11-point numeric rating scale. Participants in the experimental group had lower perceptions that exercise would damage the knee (MD, −0.4; 95% CI: −0.8, 0.0; rated on an 11-point numeric rating scale) and better osteoarthritis knowledge (MD, 0.9; 95% CI: 0.0, 1.9; rated on a scale ranging from 11 to 55). Among those without tertiary education, participants in the experimental group had lower perceptions that x-ray was necessary than control (MD, −0.8; 95% CI: −1.5, −0.1). Among those who had never sought care for knee pain, participants in the experimental group had lower perceptions about the need for surgery (MD, −0.7; 95% CI: −1.2, −0.2).

CONCLUSIONS: Removing pathoanatomical content may not change beliefs about imaging and surgery but may lead to lower perceptions that exercise is damaging and may improve osteoarthritis knowledge. However, effects were small and of unclear clinical relevance. Tertiary education or a history of care seeking for knee pain may moderate effects on primary outcomes.

Absent posterior element of axis vertebra with myelopathy treated with C2, C3, and C4 arthrodesis: A case report and review of literature
Authors: Singh Deepak Kumar , Shankar Diwakar , Chand Vipin , Yadav Kuldeep
Published: December 2022

A congenital abnormality of the posterior element of the axis (C2) vertebra is extremely unusual, with just a few occurrences documented in the literature. The majority of individuals have no symptoms and are discovered by chance on plain radiography for neck discomfort, radiculopathy, or trauma. We describe a case of a 13-year-old boy who was born without the posterior element of the C2 vertebrae, resulting in C2-C3 spinal instability and compressive myelopathy.

Authors: Guo Ze , Wang Yifan , Tang Huayang , Fan Min , Wang Wenjun , Ding Yantao , Shen Songke , Zhou Wenming , Zhang Yuekang , Wang Zaixing
Published: December 2022

BACKGROUND: Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) led to a global pandemic in March 2020 that has involved tens of millions of people. To date, prophylactic vaccines have been found to be the most effective method to contain the pandemic. Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is an autoimmune skin disease that mainly affects older individuals. CASE REPORTS: The authors report 2 confirmed cases of BP in patients with history of cerebral infarction who received the inactivated severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 vaccine. A 67-year-old woman was hospitalized for a generalized rash that appeared 7 days after the first dose of inactivated COVID-19 vaccine. The rash was aggravated after the second dose. The second patient was a 66-year-old woman who was hospitalized for a generalized rash that appeared 10 days after the first dose of inactivated COVID-19 vaccine. There were no abnormalities in the baseline blood tests. Laboratory and histologic examinations confirmed the diagnosis of BP. The patients were treated with systemic glucocorticoids, antibiotics, topical corticosteroids, and emollients, which resulted in a significant reduction in pruritus and regression of lesions after 2 weeks. CONCLUSION: Two patients with a genetic background of HLA-DQB1*0302 had BP after vaccination in China. However, there is not enough evidence to indicate a requirement for genetic screening before receiving inactivated severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 vaccines.
Medical Device–related Pressure Injury Due to Urinary Catheterization: A Case Report
Authors: Woodmansee Brenda , Anderson Jennifer
Published: December 2022

BACKGROUND: Urethral erosion secondary to a medical device–related pressure injury (MDRPI) is preventable, understudied, not well understood, and often overlooked. PURPOSE: This case report describes a patient who sustained an MDRPI secondary to indwelling urinary catheter placement for urinary retention. CASE STUDY: A 93-year-old man with prostate cancer and pneumonia received an indwelling urinary catheter for retention during a 2-week hospitalization. Upon his transfer to a rehabilitation facility, the patient’s daughter informed staff that she had observed a 1-cm urethral erosion on the urinary meatus. Within a week, the penile erosion worsened to encircle the urinary meatus to 1.5 cm, and clinical signs of infection were present. Eventually, the patient was transferred to a hospice facility where he died. CONCLUSION: This case study demonstrates the need for increased training of health care professionals in identifying risk factors for MDRPI and managing such injuries to limit their devastating impact on the patient and family members.

Modeling the Photo-Absorption Properties of Noble Metal Nanoclusters: a Challenge for Density-Functional Theory
Authors: SEVEUR Priscila , BOUBEKEUR-LECAQUE Leïla , MAUREL François , BRÉMOND Éric
Published: December 2022

Modeling the emergence of the plasmon resonance in noble metal nanoclusters is still a challenge to tackle for theoretical chemistry. The systems are indeed too small to neglect quantum-size effects but too large to be easily assessed with quantum mechanics. We test here a robust answer to this still open question: the simplified variant to time-dependent density-functional theory (TDDFT). This electronic structure-based method cumulates the advantage to be applied to extended systems, like the ones under investigation, in computing thousands of excitations on a sufficiently large energy range to cover the emergence of plasmon-like states. By employing this approach under a semilocal exchange-correlation approximation such as PBE, we show that the modeled photo-absorption spectra can lead to a misinterpretation of the absorbing bands, or in other words, can provide the good answer for the wrong reason because of the too low energy gap predicted between $d$ and $s$ valence orbitals. However, we demonstrate that a global or range-separated hybrid exchange-correlation approximation such as PBE0 or RSX-PBE0, the latter being parameterized herein for sTDA, is a robust answer to the problem. We notice however that both approaches are not able to solve in the same time the energy positioning and intensity emergence of a plasmon band, PBE0 being more accurate to model the former property while RSX-PBE0 being preferred to predict the latter.

Published: December 2022

The lithium-mediated system catalyses nitrogen to ammonia under ambient conditions. Herein we discover that trace amount of water - in contrast to prior reports from the literature – can effect a dramatic improvement in the Faradaic selectivity of N2 reduction to NH3. We report an optimal water concentration of 35.5 mM and LiClO4 salt concentration of 0.8 M allows a Faradaic efficiency up to 27.7% at ambient pressure. We attribute the increase in Faradaic efficiency to the incorporation of Li2O in the solid electrolyte interphase, as suggested by our X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurements. Our results highlight the extreme sensitivity of lithium mediated N2 reduction to small changes in the experimental conditions.

The purpose of the study was to demonstrate the effectiveness of formative research in strengthening enquiry competence in university students. In this sense, a single-group design with pre-test and post-test was used, with a purposive sample of 102 subjects. The instrument used was a rubric, characterised by very high valuations, in terms of validity criteria (0.917) and reliability (0.869). The results obtained exceeded expectations, which were corroborated by the Wilcoxon statistical test; since the theoretical significance α = 0.05 is superlative, when compared to the observed significance, Sig.=000; consequently, the null hypothesis was categorically rejected. In short, the proposal, consisting of five stages: sensitisation, adoption, interaction, evaluation and confrontation, proved its effectiveness in the enhancement of investigative knowledge, such as the problematisation-theorisation-checking of reality. Undoubtedly, great advances in initial training that have an impact not only in raising the quality of scientific production, but also in making sustainable the development of research skills for subsequent performance in the professional field and for improving quality in universities.

VOYEURISM: CRIMINAL AND CRIMINOLOGICAL ASPECTS
Authors: Sheveleva Svetlana , Teneneva I.
Published: December 2022

One of the types of paraphilia is voyeurism, i.e., secretly spying on the intimate actions of other people. From the point of view of medicine, voyeurism is recognized as a disorder of sexual preference, in art it has found expression in the paintings of famous masters, but from the point of view of morality it remains in the plane of religiously conditioned prohibitions, and psychologists say that the considered form of sexual behavior is dangerous not only for the psyche of the actor, but also for the victim. Within the framework of the presented research, the authors offer an analysis of the legal reaction of foreign countries to this form of sexual deviation, consider the types of punishments, and also present a criminological portrait of voyeurism. In the legal systems of foreign countries (Great Britain, Belgium, Singapore), voyeurism is recognized as a sexual crime; in the United States, Germany, New Zealand, and some states of Australia, the act in question is recognized as a crime that violates the «right to privacy». Separate statistical data on the specified acts in separate countries (where such counting is conducted) are presented, the reasons of growth of such encroachments and ways of their implementation are defined. In Russia, such acts receive a criminal-legal assessment on the grounds of Article 137 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, which should be considered as a «legislative compromise», since in the actions of a voyeur, the main motive is sexual, and violation of privacy is not the goal. Some statistical data indicate an increase in such attacks in the world, but in Russia, the paraphilia in question is mainly the subject of research by psychologists, sexologists, and journalists. No serious criminological or criminal law studies were conducted. The presented research is the first attempt to study this phenomenon in the legal aspect, suggesting the beginning of a scientific discussion. It is concluded that in the conditions of digitalization of society, voyeurism as a form of sexual deviation will continue to develop, so it is necessary to adopt a set of legal measures aimed at protecting the rights of victims.
Foreign Aid and Donor's Exports to the Recipients: The South Korean Case
Authors:   Institute of Korean Studies, Choi Yunhee
Published: December 2022

This paper examined the relationship between foreign aid and export, for the case of Korea from 1965 to 2015. I argue that foreign aid promotes donor's export to the recipient for following reasons: (1) the explicit and implicit tied-aid agreements directly increase export; and (2) implementing aid policy involves transferring not only money but also people. Thus, it serves as building the political, economic, and social relationships between donor and recipient countries. Those spillover effects of foreign aid can increase the export of donor countries. By applying a dynamic gravity model with GMM estimators, I provided empirical evidence that Korean bilateral ODA is positively related to its export to the recipients. The result showed that the impact of Korean ODA on its exports is positive and more significant in the post-1990s. In specific, for the later period, a percentage increase in Korean bilateral aid is associated with 0.095% increase in export in the short-term and 0.22% increase in export in the long run.

Results of the research presented in this article are based on many years experience of ultrasound examinations at the 1602nd Military Clinical Hospital of the Russian Ministry of Defense. Improvements of diagnoses at the primary stage as well as reductions of the number of diagnostic errors by means of a systematic and multidisciplinary approach to urgent ultrasound examinations are presented. These improvements are needed for accurate and rapid diagnosis of a wide range of diseases on the admission stage at a multiprofile hospital. Such a versatile patient examination allows hospital staff to apply therapeutic measures as quickly as possible. We present an analysis of the structure for a most common pathologies detected during ultrasound examinations for urgent indications as well as an algorithm for conducting urgent ultrasound tests. Demonstrative clinical cases that prove urgent importance for advanced diagnostic search are also discussed. These cases are believed to be important when conducting ultrasound diagnostics for complex and diagnostically "incomprehensible" patients.

Os dados coletados pela PMAD/2013 abrangem um amplo leque de informações: características gerais da população (gênero, faixa etária, cor, estado civil, religião, escolaridade, acesso à saúde, ocupação, renda, posse de bens, acesso a serviços diversos), aspectos culturais e esportivos, infraestrutura urbana e condição do domicílio. São dados que também possibilitam a identificação dos principais fluxos entre esses municípios e o Distrito Federal.
A PMAD/2013 permitiu não só a obtenção de informações atualizadas e detalhadas sobre as características gerais da população e dos domicílios dos 12 municípios metropolitanos, mas também a apresentação dos dados desagregados de distritos e núcleos urbanos de cinco áreas municipais no território da AMB: Distrito de Jardim Ingá (Município de Luziânia); Distrito de Campos Lindos (Município de Cristalina); Núcleo Urbano de Jardim ABC (Município de Cidade Ocidental); Núcleo Urbano de Monte Alto (Município de Padre Bernardo) e Núcleo Urbano de Girassol (Município de Cocalzinho de Goiás).
A pesquisa foi desenvolvida em quatro etapas. A primeira foi dedicada ao planejamento, ocasião em que se procurou definir as áreas de estudo e o cronograma de atividades. Ainda nesta fase, foram elaborados os manuais, os formulários da pesquisa, a seleção e o treinamento da equipe. A segunda etapa envolveu a aplicação dos questionários junto às famílias, compreendendo também a checagem das informações quanto à veracidade e a crítica visual. Na terceira, os dados coletados foram digitados, criticados, criando-se um banco de dados para tabulação, cruzamento e expansão dos resultados. A última etapa culminou com a elaboração desse relatório, contendo o resultado final da pesquisa.
A look at polyploidy and plant breeding
Authors: Jesica Iannicelli , Alejandro S Escandón
Published: December 2022

Polyploidization is a process that generates genetic variability and therefore one of the engines of biological evolution. Since polyploidization produces important changes in the phenotype, mainly an increase in the size of the organs (i.e.: flowers and fruits), it is also a very important and powerful tool for plant improvement. Despite its intense use in breeding programs for various species, very little is known so far about the nature of this phenomenon. This work presents a brief review of the results obtained by the use of this tool in plant breeding and also raises some reflections on its mechanism of action.
Pain and culture - on cultural communications of suffering
Authors: Lisbeth Sachs
Published: December 2022

The impact of culture on the communication of pain becomes visible in a comparative perspective when individuals with two different cultures meet. Regardless of the physiological cause, it is through lived experience, in social life, that it is decided how, where, when and for whom pain is to be communicated. Age and gender, situation and context as well as the type of pain are essential ingredients in communication. The communication is always adapted to expectations from those present, their own experiences of pain and the specific circumstances, the cause of the pain. The impact of culture on the communication of pain becomes visible in a comparative perspective when individuals with two different cultures meet.

Immigrant Memories of Healing
Authors: Palla Mária
Published: December 2022

Erika Gottlieb’s narrative is a transgenerational family memoir, a search for identity, and also the testimony of the protagonist Eva Steinbach, the thinly disguised authorial self, a child survivor of the Holocaust in Hungary, which provides a larger historical perspective for the personal narrative written in Canada. The satisfactory completion of the tasks involved in these three strands of Gottlieb’s life writing depends on how successfully memories can be preserved without allowing them to paralyze the remembering subject. Since these three themes are inseparable from each other, they can only result in self-understanding and healing for the author/protagonist if they evolve together. At the same time, Gottlieb’s narrative is intricately linked to her artwork, which calls for an intermedial discussion of the book to reveal how the graphic images further enhance the protagonist’s struggle to comprehend herself. While the multi-layered text is constructed in a non-linear structure, the sketches and paintings incorporated in it are employed to fulfill various functions. They serve both as illustrations of characters and locations at times, while on other occasions they are made to serve as structural devices. When describing or representing existing artwork, the text also turns into ekphrastic writing at certain points, thus multiplying the interpretative possibilities opened up and the aesthetic impressions created.

Metaleptic Confessions
Authors: Csató Péter
Published: December 2022

This essay focuses on Paul Auster’s novel, Invisible (2009), aiming to explore the text’s intricate metafictional dimensions, especially the deployment of metalepsis as the main organizing principle of its narrative structure. The author argues that the novel employs a subtle metaleptic narrative structure, which moves beyond the classical postmodernist phase of textual experimentation, and serves as a means of raising questions of ethical and existential relevance. Metalepsis is construed in the paper as a trope of transgression, whereby its epistemological and ontological functions are regarded as a means to an end, which is the problematization of the interrelation between narrative structure and ethical agency. The main contention of the article is that the novel’s surreptitiously deployed metaleptic structure results in the ontological destabilization of the narrative, which in turn undermines the epistemic function (truth-telling) of the act of confession, so its ethical purpose (atonement, absolution) remains unfulfilled.

Distributed Path Planning Classification with Web-based 3D Visualization using Deep Neural Network for Internet of Robotic Things
Authors:   Mercu Buana University, Iklima Z. , Kadarina T M ,   Mercu Buana University
Published: December 2022

Internet of Robotic Things (IoRT) distributes heterogeneous intelligences among devices and platforms. A distributed control of a three-degree-of-freedom (3-DOF) robot manipulator is integrated with web-based 3D visualization. An asynchronous protocol was utilized to broadcast kinematic data of a 3-DOF robot manipulator between platforms. However, kinematic data computed using inverse kinematic equations directly cannot identify the singularity issue of robot manipulator. Singularity avoidance required to prevent robot component or joint from damage. Therefore, this study proposed a deep neural network approach as a classification-based of manipulator robot path planning to avoid singularity issues. Deep neural network (DNN) was trained in 12 minutes, 52 seconds in 500 iterations. Training accuracy measured with value 96,23 percent, validation accuracy measured with value 96,13 percent, and testing accuracy measured with value 96,48 percent Additionally, 3 DOF manipulator robot web-based 3D visualization was made using Web Graphics Library (WebGL). The distributed platform was tested successfully and can distribute and classify 2352 motions per second.
Nutritional value of Juncus acutus in the wetland of Kızılırmak delta
Authors: ALBAYRAK Sebahattin
Published: December 2022

Juncus acutus, a wetland plant, helps improve habitats for both terrestrial and aquatic creatures and spawning grounds for fish. A variety of wetland birds use between the trunks of the juncus as a shelter. They also help prevent soil erosion due to their extensive root systems. On the other hand, it can be said that it has a negative effect on the feeding of grassland animals due to the high density in wetlands.Plant materials from Juncus acutus, which is intensively located in the Kızılırmak Delta, were taken in two different periods, in April and July. The changes in the nutrient content of the plant during the spring and summer periods were investigated and the quality features were divulged. According to the research results; It was observed that the water buffaloes in the Kızılırmak Delta were not fed with Juncus acutus for feeding purposes, the forage quality was low, but the livestock grazed a little on Juncus acutus when they first went to the wetland in early spring.

Published: December 2022

Morphogenesis in vitro in barley calli of the cv. Steptoe and its ABA-deficient mutant AZ34 under the influence of an inhibitor of polar auxin transport, N-1-naphthylphthalamic acid (NPA), was studied by light microscopy The formation of «polymeric» embryoids (polyembryoids), characterized by the presence of multiple, often fused (fasciated) organs in varying degrees, in calli of cv. Steptoe and the formation of fasciated roots in calli of AZ34 were revealed. The distribution of IAA in calli was studied by the immunolocalization method. It was found that the most intense staining for IAA in both genotypes was found in fasciated roots. The important role of the polar transport of auxins in the regulation of plant morphogenesis in vitro has been confirmed.
Individual Differences in Computational Psychiatry: A Review of Current Challenges
Authors: Karvelis Povilas , Paulus Martin P , Diaconescu Andreea Oliviana
Published: December 2022

Bringing precision to the understanding and treatment of mental disorders requires instruments for studying clinically relevant individual differences. One promising approach is the development of computational assays: integrating computational models with cognitive tasks to infer latent patient-specific disease processes in brain computations. While recent years have seen many methodological advancements in computational modelling and many cross-sectional patient studies, much less attention has been paid to basic psychometric properties (reliability and construct validity) of the computational measures provided by the assays. In this review, we assess the extent of this issue by examining emerging empirical evidence. To contextualize this, we also provide a more general perspective on key developments that are needed for translating computational assays to clinical practice. Emerging evidence suggests that most computational measures show poor-to-moderate reliability and often provide little improvement over simple behavioral measures. Furthermore, behavioral and computational measures used to test computational accounts of mental disorders show a lack of convergent validity, which compromises their interpretability. Taken together, these issues pose a risk of invalidating previous findings and undermining ongoing research efforts using computational assays to study individual (and even group) differences. We suggest that cross-sectional single-task designs, which currently dominate the research landscape, are partly to blame for these problems and therefore are not suitable for solving them. Instead, reliability and construct validity need to be studied more systematically using longitudinal designs with batteries of tasks. Finally, to enable clinical applications, it will be necessary to establish predictive and longitudinal validity, and to make the assays more efficient and less burdensome.
Utilization and Conversion of Discarded Lobster Shells into Valuable Biopolymers - A Pilot Study

Published: December 2022

Chitin is one of the most abundant polysaccharides and can be made by combining shells of crabs, shrimp, lobsters, and fish. This study used discarded lobster shells as a raw material to produce a biopolymer.  As part of the process, TiO2 was incorporated into the film in order to increase tensile strength. As compared to the control sample without TiO2 (3.34 MPa), the experimental sample with TiO2 showed improved tensile strength (3.96 MPa). Bio composites containing chitin and chitosan have been shown to produce thin, labile, textured films with good apparent textures. Upon tensile testing, it was determined that the material produced was sturdy enough for use as packaging and medical equipment. The prepared samples were analyzed in a variety of ways to understand their properties. In the FTIR analysis, it is evident that certain functional components are present that are responsible for the plasticity of the material. A study conducted on pathogenic Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus indicated that the film had antimicrobial properties, as indicated by the zone of inhibition between 13 mm and 11 mm in samples with TiO2, respectively, and 11 mm and 10 mm in samples without TiO2. According to the physical degradation test, the produced biopolymer was 100% degraded when compared to a synthetic plastic (12%), which makes it the best choice for creating a multipurpose material. In addition to its biodegradability, biocompatibility, and anti-microbial properties, this material is suitable for use as biomedical interfaces and packaging materials.
