Authors: Abd Raof Anis Syazwani , Haron Mohd Azmi , Mohd Safari Muhammad Aslam , Siri Zailan
Published: December 2022

The new Pareto-type distribution has been previously introduced as an alternative to the conventional Pareto distribution in modeling income distribution. It is claimed to provide better flexibility for mathematical simplicity of probability functions and has a more straightforward mathematical form. In this study, the new Pareto-type distribution is used to model the income of the Malaysian upper-class group. The threshold is determined using the fixed proportion technique and the maximum likelihood estimator method is used to estimate the shape parameter. Then, the goodness-of-fit of the fitted new Pareto model is measured using the coefficient of determination, R2 and Kolmogorov–Smirnov statistics. We also measure the income inequality among the Malaysian top income earners using the Lorenz curve, Gini and Theil indices based on the fitted new Pareto model. Finally, the new Pareto distribution is compared to alternative distributions to analyze which model can give the best fit for the data. Our analysis shows that the Pareto type-1 and the new Pareto models are well fitted to the top income data for all years considered. However, the new Pareto model provides better flexibility which covering more incomes in the upper tail of the distribution than the Pareto type-1 model.

Background. Persistently high incidence of cervical cancer in Russia and significant number of cases detected in the late stages necessitate the improvement of secondary prophylaxis of this disorder.

Aim. To assess risk factors for recurrent high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN2+) (high grade squamous intraepithelial lesions, HSIL) after cervical conization.

Materials and methods. This study included 62 patients with recurrent HSIL treated in Novosibirsk Regional Clinical Oncology Dispensary, E. N. Meshalkin National Medical Research Center, “Zdorovye” LLC, “Avismed” LLC, Tomsk National Research Medical Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences, and Federal Research and Clinical Center for Specialized Medical Care and Medical Technologies, Federal Biomedical Agency of the Russian Federation in 2017–2021. We analyzed patients’ human papillomavirus (HPV) status, performed repeated examination of excised tissue specimens to evaluate the severity of lesions and resection margins, as well as immunohistochemical examinations. We found that mean time to cytologically confirmed recurrent HSIL was 16.0 ± 5.6 months. All patients were HPV-positive. Repeated histological examination demonstrated that 18 samples had positive resection margins or endocervical crypt involv ement. Fifty-seven samples had positive staining for p16 at immunohistochemical examination; 46 samples had  Ki-67 >30 %, which indicated high risk of recurrence. Treatment of patients with recurrent HSIL included repeated excision up to healthy cervical tissues, followed by intravaginal therapy with Cervicon-DIM 100 mg twice a day (for 3 months). Follow-up examinations after 18.0 ± 6.2 months on average showed no HPV persistence and no HSIL recurrence.

Conclusion. Endocervical crypt involvement along the primary resection margin, underestimated severity and depth of lesions (at the first surgery), and persistence of HPV infection are the main risk factors for recurrent cervical dysplasia or carcinoma in situ. Combination treatment that includes additional excision with a subsequent course of Cervicon-DIM is sufficient and effective.

Approximating Constant-Q Seismic Wave Propagations in Acoustic and Elastic Media Using a Cole–Cole Model
Authors: Zhang Yabing , Chen Tongjun , Zhu Hejun , Liu Yang , Xing Tao , Zhang Xin
Published: December 2022

Seismic wave propagation in the Earth’s interior inevitably encounters attenuation and dispersion effects, which usually can be represented by a constant-Q model. However, solving the constant-Q wave equations formulated by fractional Laplacians is computationally intensive. Alternatively, the Cole–Cole model provides an optimal description of seismic attenuation. Because of the fractional time derivatives of both stress and strain in the expression, this method exhibits good adaptability and flexibility. In this article, we investigate the performance of the Cole–Cole model to approximate constant-Q behaviors with different fractional orders in acoustic and elastic media. The phase velocity and quality factor are compared to determine an optimal fractional order. After that the Cole–Cole model can be easily represented by the other three parameters (i.e., relaxed modulus, minimum angular frequency, and minimum quality factor), which are similar to the constant-Q theory (reference modulus, reference angular frequency, and frequency-independent quality factor). The first-order viscoacoustic and viscoelastic wave equations are derived to implement seismic wavefield simulations by combining conservation equation and stress–displacement relation. Furthermore, a time-domain algorithm is developed to solve the wave equations based on the Grunwald–Letnikov approximation and finite-difference scheme. Numerical modeling results calculated by our proposed method have good consistencies with the reference solutions from the constant-Q theory, suggesting that a small fractional order can well approximate the constant-Q outputs in a broad frequency band.
Little Rock, Arkansas. Hannah Arendt, Ralph Ellison and Danielle Allen on Education and the Public Sphere
Authors: Grabau Christian
Published: December 2022

Three years after the U.S. Supreme Court’s landmark decision Brown v. Board of Education, 15-year-old Elizabeth Eckford tried to enter a school previously reserved for white students in Little Rock, Arkansas. She was confronted by a white mob, spitting on her and shouting racist insults. The photographs taken that day went around the world. They inspired three different ways to think about the relationship between democracy, the public sphere, and education: Hannah Arendt, Ralph Ellison and Danielle Allen interpret the photos in very different ways – and their interpretations reveal much about their understanding of the public sphere. In this contribution, I will explore these three interpretations – and at least hint at their implications for the relationship between the public sphere and education.

To avoid unwanted complications during the extraction of impacted mandibular teeth pre-operative investigations are required to plan the best protocol for the situation. Although 3D imaging modalities provide clear picture, because of their reduced accessibility and high cost panoramic radiography is more preferred for planning third molar extraction.

: To assess and associate the pattern of mandibular third molar impactions with the associated radiological risk predictors in relation to age and sex using Orthopantomogram in a Tertiary Dental Care Centre in Kerala.

This is a retrospective cross-sectional study using the digital panoramic radiographic records of subjects with impacted mandibular third molar. Data collected will be analysed using Descriptive statistics and Chi square test. Associations and differences will be considered significant when the p value less than 0.05.

Out of the 710 mandibular third molar impactions, 368 (51.8%) belong to females and 342 (48.2%) belong to males. The highest frequency of impactions (73.2%) belonged to the 20-24-year age group. The predominant pattern of impaction was mesioangular impactions. Among the radiological risk predictors darkening of root was having the highest frequency (40%); followed by interruption of white line of canal, (34.9%). The radiological signs when correlated with pattern of impaction, shows statistically significant results associated with darkening of root and deflection of root. There was statistically significant results when radiological signs were correlated with sex, in the case of narrowing of root even though darkening of the root accounted for the most common radiological risk predictor in both sexes.

Mesioangular impactions are the most common impaction in our study population. The largest number of impactions belonged to the 20-24 age group. The most frequent radiological risk predictor as per the study is darkening of the root.

Published: December 2022

Bone fracture is one of the most common injuries in the human musculoskeletal system. This study was performed to investigate the effects of celastrol on bone wound healing in rats. Bone wound models of Sprague-Dawley rats were treated with low (10 μg/kg) and high (100 μg/kg) celastrol for 14 days. Serum calcium (Ca), phosphorus (P), and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) contents, bone mechanical properties, bone mineral density (BMD), and the levels of osteogenesis-related and inflammation-related proteins were assessed at the end of the experiments. Rats feeding with celastrol grew normally as control. Compared with model, celastrol administration significantly increased fracture strength, elastic load (0.12 vs 0.16 kg/m), bending energy (11.23 vs 14.23 n x mm), and BMD (0.49 vs 0.54 g/cm3), particularly at a high dose. Serum Ca (2.2 vs 2.7 mmol/L) and ALP (217.3 vs 245.8 IU/L) contents were significantly increased after a high dose celastrol administration, although P content did not change. Western blot analyses showed that OPG (0.72 vs 1.15) and COL-1 (0.20 vs 0.42) but not RUNX2 were upregulated significantly after celastrol administration, and IL-1α (0.82 vs 0.37), IL-6 (0.62 vs 0.28), MCP-1(0.68 vs 0.18), and VEGF (0.62 vs 0.42) were significantly downregulated, while IFN-γ was upregulated (0.29 vs 0.46). Our data demonstrate that celastrol effectively promotes the healing of bone wound in rats and may be further explored as a therapeutic agent to treat bone fracture.
On the influence of “tales” on the economics methodology formation and their use in the teaching process (Part I)
Authors:   Saratov State University, Fenin Cyril V.
Published: December 2022

Introduction. This article is a justification of the possibility of using tales to popularize economics, economic history and the history of economic thought. Theoretical analysis. The historiographic review showed that many prominent English-speaking and Russian-speaking economists in their scientific articles and monographs textually or allegorically use the terms “parables”, “fables”, “stories”, “stories”, “myths”, “saga”, and the like. Therefore, the term “tales” will organically complement this semantic range. The study of the construction of theory and models within the framework of economic theory and economic history in the 20th century revealed that the essence of the methodology of scientific research data (instrumentalism) is very close to the practice of inventing half-truth instructive stories, from which the proper conclusions should be made. Results. Post-modernization of the modern academic environment pluralization, can be used in the process of creative self-expression of economists and progress in the field of economic sciences.
Import substitution as a factor of Russian economy innovative development
Authors:   Southern Federal University, Tumanyan Yuri R. , Industriev Maksim A. ,   Southern Federal University
Published: December 2022

Introduction. In the modern world, the introduction of innovations is becoming one of the main ways of economic development of both organizations and states. In this regard, the process of switching Russian economy to the innovative way of development acquires special importance. Still in 2011, the Government approved the Strategy for Innovative Development of Russia until 2020: it formulates the goals of the country’s long-term development and indicators that characterize their implementation. Import substitution was identified as one of the key factors contributing to the achievement of these goals. The aim of the work is to study the impact of import substitution on the effectiveness of the implementation of the Strategy for Innovative Development of Russia. Theoretical analysis. Import substitution processes in Russian economy began in the late 1990s. The main reason at that time was the ruble devaluation, due to which the volume of imports in 1998–1999 decreased by more than 30%. Imports replacement became possible by increasing the supply of domestic producers who resumed the use of previously mothballed facilities. According to a number of Russian economists, during this period import substitution was one of the key drivers of GDP and industrial production growth in the country. In the 2000s, import substitution processes began to take on a point-by-point rather than a mass factor: they took place in those industries where Russian enterprises had clear competitive advantages. In 2014, following the implementation of economic sanctions against Russia, the Government adopted a number of measures aimed at intensifying import substitution in the country. Empirical analysis. The text of the strategy identifies import substitution as one of the key factors in the innovative development of the domestic economy. The paper considers the impact of the ongoing policy of import substitution on the achievement of the strategic goals of Russia’s innovative development. A statistical analysis of indicators characterizing the effectiveness of ongoing measures in the field of import substitution and stimulation of innovative development was carried out. Results. According to the results of data statistical analysis, a conclusion is obtained that the target indicators in the field of import substitution have not been achieved: in key sectors of the economy there is still a high dependence on supplies of foreign products. Innovative technologies used by domestic organizations are still mainly of import origin. At the same time, indicators of innovation activity in Russia remain significantly lower than in foreign countries. This situation relates mainly to such factors as lack or shortage of organizations funds, long payback period of investments in innovation, lack of qualified personnel, as well as reduction of opportunities in cooperation with other enterprises and scientific organizations.
Unrestricted human rights and freedoms: Legal positions of the Constitutional Court of Russia (1995–2022)
Authors:   Saratov State Law Academy, Saratov State University, Podmarеv Alexander A.
Published: December 2022

Introduction. The Constitution of the Russian Federation of 1993 in several articles provides for the right of the state to restrict the rights and freedoms of man and citizen in order to achieve certain goals. Part 3 of Article 55 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation establishes the general conditions for the restriction of all rights and freedoms of the individual. However, this constitutional norm does not give an answer to the question of whether there are rights and freedoms of an individual that cannot be limited. Theoretical analysis. Part 3 of Article 55 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation is a kind of “general part” of the institution of restrictions on the rights and freedoms of the individual; and in this “general part” there are no exceptions in the form of unrestricted rights and freedoms. In the scientific literature, they often refer to part 3 of article 56 when they state the existence of unrestricted rights and freedoms. In our opinion, Article 56 is of a special nature - it establishes the foundations of the state of emergency, including the rules for restricting rights and freedoms in a state of emergency. However, unlimited rights and freedoms of the individual exist – their list was formed by the decisions of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation. Empirical analysis. Since 1995, the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation in more than 40 decisions, as well as in definitions, has substantiated the presence of certain unrestricted human rights and freedoms in the Constitution of the Russian Federation. The possibility of singling out this group of rights and freedoms is explained mainly by the fact that these human rights and freedoms cannot conflict with the constitutional goals of restricting rights and freedoms. Results. It is concluded that the legal positions formed by the Constitutional Court of Russia regarding the existence of unrestricted human rights and freedoms have practical consequences, primarily for the federal legislator, since they establish the framework for his / her law-making activities. These positions are the basis for developing federal laws and the basis for correcting existing federal laws. They can also be criteria for determining the constitutionality of federal laws in the exercise of preliminary or subsequent constitutional review.

Published: December 2022

Whitening cream is a mixture of active substances and the other additives that can be used to brighten the skin. Mercury is one of the whitening ingredients of the creams that can cause health problems when it is absorbed into the tissue. This study aims to identify whether there is a mercury content and how much mercury is contained in the whitening cream, which does not have a BPOM RI registration number (National Agency of Food and Drug Control, Republic of Indonesia) circulating in the market in Banjarnegara regency, Central Java, Indonesia. This research was conducted with purposive sampling, and 20 samples were obtained from the traditional market in Banjarnegara regency. The qualitative analysis method used the Potassium Iodide (KI) color reaction test and amalgam formation with copper rods, while the quantitative analysis used the Cold Vapor Mercury Analyzer at a wavelength of 253.7 nm. The results showed the presence of three positive samples containing mercury at average levels of 0.04217 mg / kg (ppm), 0.01814 mg / kg, and 0.91000 mg / kg. These findings suggest that mercury was added at the whitening cream and distributed in the market. Customers should be more careful when choosing a whitening cream to prevent health problems.

In this article, the creation of a thermal lift technology for oil wells through the use of installations with a solid oxide fuel cell has been discussed. The necessary calculations were carried out to determine the level of thermal activity in wells producing hydrocarbon resources of various compositions. Arrangements necessary to achieve this thermal activity based on solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) are proposed. SOFC metric characteristics are proposed that are compatible with their additional phenomena, namely, material support, shape, etc. The threshold value of the operating thermal characteristic of SOFCs is obtained depending on the structural and physical properties of their material support. The most effective ways for determination of the required thermobaric parameters of the fluid in accordance with the formation area and product, development of a resource-saving complex for the production of percussion fluid in accordance with these parameters, determination of processing periodicity to manage the thermobaric condition of the formation area, assessment of impact on the formation area and other factors generalise them. The purpose of the article is to develop a technology for management the thermobaric condition of the area through alternative resource-saving energy systems (development of Thermolift technology), substantiation of operational parameters and creation of surface equipment. The scientific idea of the presented article significantly increases the mobility of their hydrocarbon reserves on the basis of the thermobaric action of working agents, which are the product of a resource-saving surface complex (i.e. by providing Thermolift technology) and, finally increases the operational efficiency of production wells and, as a result, the production capacity of the reservoirs.

Derechos y deberes del comunicador peruano
Authors: Perla A. José
Published: December 2022

La última década ha sido removida por un creciente debate nacional acerca de la función social que deben desempeñar los medios de comunicación. En muchos casos se ha planteado sugerencias a las autoridades, con el fin de que intervengan de algún modo en los contenidos que se difunden masivamente. En otros casos, varios entes gremiales y profesionales han hecho pública referencia a los códigos que tienen vigentes. La presente obra reúne tanto las normas legales principales, como las disposiciones deontológicas más divulgadas acerca de los derechos y deberes relativos a la función de comunicar, la que toda persona -de una u otra manera- ejercita diariamente.

Background: Organic farming proves many advantages for recycling regenerates the waste matter into wealth and can wipe out the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Sustainable agriculture can be ensured in future with the help of organic farming which includes various processes of biological origin such as compost and vermicompost. Methods: The study was conducted at Alanthurai, Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu. Agro-industrial waste of sugarcane trash and bagasse were collected and were used for biocomposting process using Pleurotus florida, Trichoderma asperelloides, microbial consortium and Eudrillus eugeniae. Six different treatments were incorporated in the present study. Vegetative parameters such as shoot length, root length, number of leaves, fresh weight and dry weight at different stages (30, 60 and 90 DAS), number of flowers and number of branches on 60 and 90 DAS. On 90th day yield characters like number of fruits, diameter of fruits, single fruit weight, fruit yield per plant and fruit yield per plot were analyzed. Result: A significant increase in shoot length, root length, number of leaves, fresh weight and dry weight was observed in T3 - C3 (Predecomposted sugarcane trash + Trichoderma asperelloids and Microbial consortium 5 t/h) treatment, followed by T1 - C1 (Predecomposted sugarcane trash Pleurotus florida and earthworm (Eudrilus eugeniae) 5 t/h) treatment on 30, 60 and 90 DAS. A significant increase in number of flowers and number of branches was observed in T3 treatment followed by other treatment on 60 and 90 DAS. The maximum amount in number of fruits, diameter of fruit, single fruit weight, fruit yield per plant and fruit yield per plot were noted in T3 treatment, followed by T1 treatment on 90 DAS and minimum amount were reported in control (soil). The results of the study clearly indicated that treatment T3 significantly increased the vegetative parameters and yield characters in tomato.

Teaching Arabic In Light Of The Competency Approach And Methods Of Teaching/ تعليمية اللغة العربية في ظل المقاربة بالكفاءات وطرق تدريسها
Authors: Ouali Messaoud , Benaouira Abdelmonaim
Published: December 2022

The competency approach was among the essential pedagogies in learning in its various ways through the employment of modern linguistic and pedagogical theories that would contribute to a sound basis for building a linguistic faculty for the learner at all stages of learning, thus raising the level of the Arabic language. This study aims to highlight the role and contributions of the approach to educational competence and its teaching methods in the field of teaching Arabic, as it is a pioneering and widely used approach in many countries through its vision of the learner and its teaching methods, and attention to it on the basis that it is the center of learning and that the rest of the elements serve his interest to achieve education goals. This study used the descriptive analytical approach, which aims to collect data with accurate scientific descriptions of the study in its current report, relied on analyzing the content of a valuable group of references that dealt with the subject of teaching the Arabic language according to the competency approach, through balancing and comparing the references approved in the study. This made us believe that the competency approach is essential in learning and teaching the Arabic language.  The study found that there are many different teaching methods according to this approach: the project teaching method, the cooperative learning method, the strategic learning method, and the problem-solving method, which makes the role of the teacher direct, monitoring, and forming rather than memorizing, which contribute effectively to learning the Arabic language and that these methods can be combined to obtain an effective way according to the educational situation and learning objectives.
Rural Working-Class Males in Sweden and Reading: Processes for Re-appropriating Written Culture
Authors: Asplund Stig-Börje , Goodson Ivor
Published: December 2022

This article explores the intersection of place-based reading practices of rural working-class males and reading practices in school. Life story interviews have been conducted with six men in different ages (age 19-63) living in a rural region in Sweden, focusing on their reflections on their own relation to reading across a life span from the standpoint of the present. The analysis shows that there is a unique combination of factors at work when rural working-class men culturally re-appropriate written culture in ways that are sympathetic, and socially acceptable to a manual working-class culture. These factors include the processes of oralising and manualising and are often related to things learned in specific ancestral heartlands.
Librarian-Faculty Collaboration for Literacy Courses: Promoting Better Learning for Preservice Teachers
Authors: Consalvo Annamary , Doepker Gina , Dubre Vandy , Neel Joanna
Published: December 2022

This narrative describes a collaboration between three university literacy faculty and a subject librarian undertaken to embed library instruction across the semester in three required courses--children’s literature, early literacy, and disciplinary literacy--in order to help undergraduate preservice teachers better understand and incorporate children’s literature and high interest literature into their teaching. Concrete, scaffolded, hands-on experiences for preservice teachers with teaching materials helped to build awareness of foundational concepts in literacy instruction. Librarian/faculty collaborations have the potential to improve literacy teacher preparation programs by providing designed opportunities for active, concrete engagement coupled with structured reflection.
Shock wave enhanced emission photoacoustic streaming (SWEEPS): An alternative to conventional irrigation in endodontic treatment
Authors: Jordana Jesslyn , Nicholas Tandean Jason , Fiona Salim Jennifer , Cahyani Febriastuti , Sampoerno Galih
Published: December 2022

Background: Irrigation is an essential step in root canal treatment (RCT). However, the complex structure of the root canal can limit the penetration of irrigants, causing RCT failure. Shock wave enhanced emission of photoacoustic streaming (SWEEPS) has been developed to improve root canal cleaning by increasing the penetration of irrigants. SWEEPS utilized the Er:YAG laser to generate micropulse, producing bubbles delivered in liquid, causing powerful photodynamic streaming. However, its superiority compared to conventional irrigation remains unclear. Thus, we aim to review the available evidence to assess the benefits of SWEEPS over conventional irrigation. Purpose: This study aims to review the available evidence to assess the benefits of SWEEPS over conventional irrigation. Reviewa: Article searches were conducted on Pubmed, ScienceDirect, EBSCOhost, and ProQuest using SWEEPS and root canal irrigation as keywords. Articles were included if they aim to assess the benefits of SWEEPS over conventional irrigation in removing smear layer, debris, pulp tissues, or bacteria. A total of 833 articles were initially retrieved from systemic search of literature and 6 articles following inclusion criteria were included in the review. Out of 6 articles, 4 articles suggested that SWEEPS could increase the removal of smear layer, debris, pulp tissues, and bacteria in the root canal compared to conventional irrigation. However, 2 articles found contradictory results, in which SWEEPS and conventional irrigation had similar outcomes in terms of penetration depth and could not completely eradicate biofilm. Conclusion: This review suggests that SWEEPS offers more benefits over conventional irrigation since it can improve the removal of smear layer, debris, pulp tissues, and bacteria in the root canal.
