The Brain and Early Experience Study: Protocol for a Prospective Observational Study
Authors: Mills-Koonce William Roger , Willoughby Michael T , Short Sarah J , Propper Cathi B
Published: February 2022

Background

Children raised in conditions of poverty (or near poverty) are at risk for nonoptimal mental health, educational, and occupational outcomes, many of which may be precipitated by individual differences in executive function (EF) skills that first emerge in early childhood.

Objective

The Brain and Early Experience study considers prenatal and postnatal experiences that may mediate the association between poverty and EF skills, including neural substrates. This paper described the study rationale and aims; research design issues, including sample size determination, the recruitment strategy, and participant characteristics; and a summary of developmental assessment points, procedures, and measures used to test the study hypotheses.

Methods

This is a prospective longitudinal study examining multiple pathways by which poverty influences normative variations in EF skills in early childhood. It is funded by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development and approved by the institutional review board.

Results

Recruitment is complete with a sample of 203 participants, and data collection is expected to continue from September 2018 to February 2024. Of those recruited as low socioeconomic status (SES), 71% (55/78) reported income-to-needs (ITN) ratios of <2.0, and 35% (27/78) reported ITN ratios of <1.0. Among participants recruited into the not-low SES stratum, only 8.8% (11/125) reported ITN ratios of <2.0, and no participant reported ITN ratios of <1.0. The average ITN ratio for participants recruited into the low-income stratum was significantly lower than the average for the high-income recruitment cell (P<.001). Comparable recruitment outcomes were observed for both Black and non-Black families. Overall, the sample has adequate diversity for testing proposed hypotheses, with 13.3% (27/203) of participants reporting ITN ratios of <1 and >32.5% (66/203) reporting ratios of <2.0.

Conclusions

Preliminary results indicate that the recruitment strategy for maximizing variation in family SES was successful, including variation within race. The findings of this study will help elucidate the complex interplay between prenatal and postnatal risk factors affecting critical neurocognitive developmental outcomes in early childhood.

Authors:   Department of Microbiology, College of Arts and Sciences,, Florendo Perla ,   Philippine Carabao Center at CLSU, Central Luzon State University, Science City of Munoz, Nueva Ecija, Philippines
Published: February 2022

This study was conducted to morphologically characterize rumen protozoa isolated in the batch type hydrolysis of sweet sorghum using 1% fresh carabao rumen fluid with duration of Day 0, 3, 6, 9, 12 and 15 days of the novel process hydrolysis. Hydrolysis was conducted using 5% chopped sweet sorghum bagasse. Nitrogen content was augmented using 0.35 g urea per 750 ml effective volume with low speed agitation of fermentation bottle at least 20 minutes twice daily and incubated at room temperature. Characterization was limited to microscopic evaluation of the morphological features of protozoa that was stained with methylene blue formalin saline solution. Initial population of 2.61 x 10 4 cfu/ml at DO had significantly lowest at 0.62 x 104 cfu/ml during the 15 days hydrolysis. Evaluation of morphology for the types of protozoa at different durations showed the predominance of species types with different orientations of caudal spines, shapes of the macromolecules and size of the body, adoral ciliary zones closely related to the features of species types from genus Entodinium of the family Ophryoscolecidae. Evaluation of the hydrolysis condition showed that duration had significant effect on the pH (P>0.05). Sweet sorghum hydrolysis pH 7 at D0 had significantly declined to pH 5 at 15 days duration. The population of the protozoa in the rumen fluid hydrolysis was significantly affected by duration of the hydrolysis (P>0.05). Entodinium were isolated at all durations of the acidic hydrolysis of sweet sorghum bagasse using carabao rumen fluid. In conclusion, the diversity in composition of rumen protozoa is a justification of the novel carabao rumen fluid hydrolysis potential as pre-treatment in the conversion of lignocelluloses in sweet sorghum bagasse into soluble carbohydrates for bioethanol production. The information is vital for animal feed utilization and bioethanol production optimization.
TEMPERATURE-DEPENDENT PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE ROTATING NONLOCAL NANOBEAMS SUBJECT TO A VARYING HEAT SOURCE AND A DYNAMIC LOAD
Authors: Abouelregal Ahmed E. , Mohammad-Sedighi Hamid , Faghidian Seyed Ali , Shirazi Ali Heidari
Published: February 2022

In this article, the influence of thermal conductivity on the dynamics of a rotating nanobeam is established in the context of nonlocal thermoelasticity theory. To this end, the governing equations are derived using generalized heat conduction including phase lags on the basis of the Euler–Bernoulli beam theory. The thermal conductivity of the proposed model linearly changes with temperature and the considered nanobeam is excited with a variable harmonic heat source and exposed to a time-dependent load with exponential decay. The analytic solutions for bending moment, deflection and temperature of rotating nonlocal nanobeams are achieved by means of the Laplace transform procedure. A qualitative study is conducted to justify the soundness of the present analysis while the impact of nonlocal parameter and varying heat source are discussed in detail. It also shows the way in which the variations of physical properties due to temperature changes affect the static and dynamic behavior of rotating nanobeams. It is found that the physical fields strongly depend on the nonlocal parameter, the change of the thermal conductivity, rotation speed and the mechanical loads and, therefore, it is not possible to neglect their effects on the manufacturing process of precise/intelligent machines and devices.
ON THE INFLUENCE OF MULTIPLE EQUILIBRIUM POSITIONS ON BRAKE NOISE
Authors: Koch Sebastian , Köppen Emil , Gräbner Nils , Von Wagner Utz
Published: February 2022

Brake noise, especially brake squeal, has been a subject of intensive research both in industry and academia for several decades. Nevertheless, the state of the art simulations does not provide a predictive tool, and extensive experimental investigations are still necessary to find an appropriate design. Actual investigations focus on the consideration of nonlinearities which are in fact essential for this phenomenon. Unfortunately, by far not all relevant effects caused by nonlinearities are known. One of these nonlinear effects that the actual research focuses on is the limit cycle behavior representing squeal. In contrast to this, the actual paper considers the influence of the equilibrium position established while applying the brake pressure. The elements of the brake, namely, the carrier, caliper and pad, are highly nonlinear and elastically coupled and allow for multiple equilibrium positions depending e.g. on the initial conditions and transient application of the brake pressure while the frictional contact between the pads and the disk may excite small amplitude self-excited vibrations around this equilibrium, i.e. squeal. The current paper establishes a method and corresponding setup, to measure the position engaged by the brake components using an optical 3D-measuring system. Subsequently, it is demonstrated that in fact different equilibrium positions can be engaged for the same operation parameters and that the engaged position can be decisive for the occurrence of squeal. In fact, certain positions result in squeal while others do not for the same operation parameters. Taking this effect into consideration may have significant consequences for the design of brakes as well as simulation and experimental investigation of brake squeal.

Authors: Wang Peng , Wu Nan , Luo Haitao , Sun Zhili
Published: February 2022

Forced vibration of non-uniform beam with nonlinear boundary condition is studied in this paper by proposing an iterative model combining Adomian Decomposition Method and modal analysis. An exponentially tapered beam with a hardening nonlinearity spring boundary is simulated as a case study. The model accuracy is proved by comparing iteration results and analysis solutions with linear and weakly nonlinear boundary conditions. Sin-weep nonlinear frequency spectrum is then obtained by the proposed model. The influence of boundary nonlinearity on the vibration response of non-uniform beam is analyzed. And the effect of different excitation amplitudes on nonlinearity in the vibration response is studied. The mathematical model and numerical solutions proposed in this paper can be used to solve and analysis broad vibration problems on general non-uniform beams with different nonlinear boundary conditionsunder various excitations.

Published: February 2022

Abstract: Tomatoes are an important plant in terms of human consumption in many countries of the world. The salinity of soils and irrigation water is one of the limiting factors of plant productivity and agricultural yield. The present work consisted of evaluating the physiological and enzymatic behaviour of the four tomato varieties, Marmande, Aicha, Henz1573 and Cerise, subjected to increasing concentrations. The results obtained showed that the sensitivity of the four varieties was observed in a variable way from one genotype to another. Indeed the levels of chlorophyll a, b and total have been reduced under the effect of saline stress, while the concentration of proline has increased. The content of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) determined in the leaves increased significantly as a function of salinity levels and genotypes. The rate of ethylene production in tomato petioles was a function of salinity levels, leaf age and genotype.

Dengan menggunakan informasi yang didapat oleh honeypot akan lebih memudahkan dalam hal mencegah kerusakan yang teerjadi apabali suatu serangan terjadi di suatu saat mendatang. Dengan segala fitur yang terdapat pada honeypot tersebut, masih belum banyak pengguna ataupun peminat dari kalangan komunitas keamanan jaringan dikarenakan honeypot termasuk kedalam kategori yang cukup rumit dalam hal pengelolaan serta pemeliharaannya. Modern Honey Network atau yang biasa dikenal MHN merupakan sebuah sistem manajemen yang mampu menjalankan banyak sensor honeypot dalam waktu yang bersamaan secara singkat. MHN menggunakan sensor – sensor honeypot untuk mengumpulkan data yang berhubungan dengan serangan ke dalam jaringan. MHN menyimpan data – data serangan dari sensor – sensor yang ada dalam bentuk file log.MHN bertujuan untuk mengatasi permasalahan dari rumitnya pemeliharaan serta pengelolaan dari honeypot. Akan tetapi kekurangan dari MHN ini yaitu tidak adanya fitur visualisasi dari data – data serangan yang sudah tersimpan tadi, hal ini tentunya akan mempersulit kinerja dari seorang administrator jaringon Ketika akan melakukan Analisa terhadap suatu serangan yang masuk kedalam server jaringan mereka. Oleh karena itu dibutuhkan sebuah program yang dapat memvisualisasikan data log yang ada pada MHN. Untuk melakukan visualisasi tersebut pada penelitian ini digunakan sebuah program yang bernama Grafana guna memvisualisasikan seluruh data informasi yang berada dalam log data pada MHN. Dengan menghubungkan Grafana dengan MHN diharapkan seorang Administrator jaringan akan lebih mudah dan cepat dalam melakukan Analisa serangan yang terjadi dalam server jaringan mereka dan dapat mengatasinya dengan cepat.

Published: February 2022

This work aims to study the formation of national elites in Sudan in the interbellum as this very period predetermined the countrys history since gaining independence in 1956. Within this article relations between three main groups are considered, namely religious, military and civil elites. The study is divided into three main parts. The first one concentrates on the history of Sudan before 1918, the second one is devoted to the interwar period, the third part aims to study the development of Sudan in World War II and the first post-war years. The special emphasis is given to the Sufi Tariqas as being not only religious but firstly political institutions. Directly within the context of Tariqas political and social influence, this article aims to study the formation of movements, political parties and associations, whose representatives later entered the political authority of the country. The Sudanese specifics of the national elites formation studied in this work is that the conservative religious elites managed to maintain the leading position within the struggle between traditional and modern political powers. The work explains how the inner nature of these elites, as well as their relations with the military and civil elites, predetermined the subsequent events.

Wohlfahrtiimonas chitiniclastica Infection without Myiasis in South Korea: An Extremely Rare Case Report
Authors: Choi Woo Jung , Lee Da Woon , Choi Hwan Jun
Published: February 2022

Wohlfahrtiimonas chitiniclastica are aerobic, non-motile, gram-negative rods, first described by Toth et al. in 2008. A small number of cases of W. chitiniclastica infections have been reported worldwide. These bacteria are transmitted through fly larvae in open wounds of skin and/or mucosal surfaces on the host. W. chitiniclastica is pathogenic to humans and can cause severe diseases like septicemia and osteomyelitis. Herein, we report the identification of W. chitiniclastica in tissue culture from a severely ill, infected patient without myiasis. Diagnoses of W. chitiniclastica without myiasis are often missed; therefore, careful attention is needed. It is reported that W. chitiniclastica infection responds well to antibiotics and general treatment of open wounds in diabetic feet. Hence, early intravenous antibiotic treatment and adequate surgical management are required for efficient management and also to prevent progression to severe disease.
The Effect of Stromal Vascular Fraction on Scar Formation of Transverse Rectus Abdominis Muscle Flap Donor Sites: A Pilot Study
Authors: Koo Hee Tae , Jin Ung Sik
Published: February 2022

Background: Stromal vascular fraction (SVF), which plays a substantial role in wound healing, has been discussed in many recent studies concerning its positive effect on scar formation. Our study explored the effects of SVF on scar formation from partially-removed transverse rectus abdominis muscle (TRAM) flaps after inset.Methods: From December 2017 to May 2020, we enrolled 11 patients undergoing breast reconstruction performed by a single surgeon using the free TRAM flap. As a split-body, placebo-controlled study, SVF was subcutaneously injected into one side of the abdomen, and normal saline was injected into the other side of each patient. Scarring was evaluated using the Vancouver Scar Scale (VSS) and Patient Scar Assessment Questionnaire (PSAQ) at 1, 6, and 12 months after surgery, and histology was evaluated with immunofluorescence analysis at 6 months after surgery.Results: No statistically significant differences were noted in the total scores or subcategory score of the VSS and PSAQ between the test and control groups. Some patients showed more positive staining for alpha smooth muscle actin, collagen type I, and type III in the test group than in the control group. However, quantification of positively stained areas showed no statistically significant difference.Conclusion: Intraoperative SVF injection had no demonstrable clinical effect on scar quality. Histology with immunofluorescence analysis also failed to demonstrate any significant effect of SVF on scars at the microscopic level. Despite previous studies indicating the positive effects of SVF on scar quality, this pilot study questions its true effectiveness.

Published: February 2022

Background: Particulate matter (PM) is known to increase the risk of diseases in major organs and PM may also slow the complex process of wound healing. We investigated the effect of PM on wound healing in vivo.Methods: Twelve 10-week-old Sprague-Dawley male rats were punctured with three 8 mm-diameter holes each in the skin on their backs. The holes were divided into three groups according to treatment: PM 50 µg/mL (group A), PM 100 µg/mL (group B) and saline (control). For histologic analysis, three rats were sacrificed on each of the 1st, 3rd, 7th, and 28th days, and a total of 36 samples were collected. Inflammatory cell infiltration and neovascularization were evaluated for comparison among groups.Results: Inflammation increased in groups A and B on day 1, but no significance was observed. On the 28th day, increased inflammation was observed in groups A and B compared to the control group, with significant difference. Angiogenesis increased in groups A and B compared to the control group on day 1, but no significance was observed. On the 3rd day, there was a decrease in group B, with statistical significance. On day 28, it was observed that angiogenesis significantly increased in group B compared to the control group.Conclusion: Inflammation increased in the PM groups compared with the control group and angiogenesis decreased, then slowly increased in the PM groups compared with the control group. Our findings suggest that PM increases inflammation and delays angiogenesis in the wound healing process.
Effectiveness of Aspiration in Treating Cardiac Implantable Electronic Device-Induced Pocket Hematoma and Characteristics of Patients with Pocket Hematoma
Authors: Lee Hye Mi , Park Jin Woo , Na Young Cheon , Yoon Chi Sun , Kim Jong Hwan , Kim Nam Ho
Published: February 2022

Background: Pocket hematoma is the most common complication after procedures involving cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs). Furthermore, pocket hematomas increase the risk of device infection. Unless severe, a pocket hematoma is usually managed conservatively because specific treatment is unavailable. Aspiration is not recommended as it can cause infection. This study explored whether lowering the risk of infection by aseptically removing the hematoma at an early stage would be possible through aspiration, investigated the effectiveness of treatment with aspiration for pocket hematoma, and analyzed the characteristics of patients with pocket hematoma.Methods: Via chart review, we retrospectively analyzed 570 patients who underwent CIED implantation or replacement between January 2011 and January 2021. Aspiration was performed only on grade 2 and 3 hematomas.Results: Pocket hematomas were identified in 80 patients (14%). Of these 80 patients, 52 (65%) were treated with aspiration only; six (7.5%), with aspiration plus surgical procedure; five (6.25%), with the surgical procedure only; and 17 (21.25%), with conservative treatment. Out of 58 patients treated with aspiration only and aspiration plus surgical procedure, 52 (89.65%) were treated with aspiration only, while six (10.34%) required more procedures (e.g., hematoma evacuation, Barovac insertion, or device reposition with flap surgery). However, none of these six patients exhibited an infection symptom possibly caused by aspiration.Conclusion: Out of 80 patients with hematoma, 58 were treated with aspiration, and none showed infection symptoms that could be caused by aspiration. This suggests that aspiration can be an effective treatment if performed aseptically.

Experimental Study on the Anisotropic Cracking Behavior of Shale under Compression and Tension
Authors: Yang Lei , Sheng Xiangchao , Li Ningbo , Ma Xujin , Wang Xiaolong , Wang Pai
Published: February 2022

To gain insight into the anisotropic mechanical properties and failure
behavior of shale, the cracking behavior of shale under compression and
tension was investigated experimentally from the macroscopic and
microscopic perspectives. The uniaxial compression tests were first
carried out, and the effects of bedding plane on the generation of
microcracks were analyzed through the technology of nuclear magnetic
resonance. Then, the Brazilian splitting and confocal laser scanning
microscopy tests were performed, and the corresponding relation between
the failure mode and the fracture surface morphology was discussed. The
results reveal that the mechanical properties and failure modes of shale
are affected significantly by the existence of bedding planes. The
distribution characteristics of microflaw radius and porosity change
significantly due to the action of uniaxial compression, and the highest
porosity of newly-generated microcracks is that of the 0° specimen. The
newly-generated microflaws in 0°, 30° and 90° specimens are mainly
contributed by seepage microflaws, while those in 60° specimen are
mainly contributed by capillary microflaws. In the Brazilian splitting
test, the fracture surface morphology of the specimen is significantly
affected by the bedding angle, and the fracture surface morphology of
the specimen is closely related to the failure mode and mechanism.
Combining ab initio and machine learning method to improve prediction performance of diatomic vibrational energies

Published: February 2022

Through the comprehensive analysis of ab initio and experimental results
of a large number of diatomic systems, the systematic deviation of ab
initio method in vibrational energies prediction caused by
physical/mathematical simplification is located. A joint ab initio and
machine learning method based on information across molecules is
proposed to deal with the problem. Starting from an ab initio model, and
then systematically modifying it through machine learning, the
vibrational energies prediction of many diatomic systems (SiC, HBr, NO,
PC, N, SiO, O, ClF, etc.) have been
improved, and significantly surpassed the more complex ab initio model.
In addition to the improvement of accuracy, the new method also greatly
reduces the computational expense, and is applicable for the systems
without experimental data.

Published: February 2022

Social entrepreneurship plays an increasing role in national and sectorial strategic policy documents, education, research and the business sector. The number of social enterprises in Latvia tends to increase; at the same time, however, a large number of enterprises were not granted social enterprise status, or the applicants refused the status. Therefore, the aim of the research is to analyse criteria for granting social enterprise status in Latvia. The research found that defining and measuring social impacts were the main challenges faced by social entrepreneurs in obtaining social enterprise status. The issue of non-distribution of profits is discussable because potential social entrepreneurs are not sufficiently motivated to apply for social enterprise status as well as face problems with the attraction of investors. Besides, the criterion of involvement of target groups in the executive or supervisory body of a social enterprise as well as the employment of employees is often formally met. Overall, it could be concluded that the entrepreneurs who have previous experience in administrative work or entrepreneurship do not face significant problems in meeting the criteria for granting social enterprise status when applying for the social enterprise status and filling in the relevant documents. However, most often the individuals who do not have previous experience in administrative work or entrepreneurship do not find it easy to meet the criteria and apply for the status.
Language and identity of the Bulgarians in Skorenovac
Authors: Vukov-Raffai Eva , Raffai Judit
Published: February 2022

The study presents the identity of Bulgarians in Skorenovac concerning their
mother tongue use, bilingualism, religion and customs, based on linguistic
and ethnographic fieldwork done in the past four years. It analyzes those
main social and historical factors which were a drift for the identity of
?Paltyans? (Catholic Bulgarians living in Southern Banat). Paltyans living
in Skorenovac, as part of the Catholic Bulgarian community in Banat,
represent a hidden minority, and social cohesion within the community is
guaranteed by their language, religion and customs. According to these, in
our study we will examine elements of identity of Bulgarians living in
Banat, based on metalingual narratives of several representatives of the
Bulgarian language community. As a result of our research, some historic and
social events and practices become visible, which induced almost complete
termination of the mother tongue of Banat Bulgarians. Bulgarians in
Skorenovac experienced a language shift due to their surroundings, speaking
mainly Hungarian starting from the end of the 19th century. Further elements
of their identity: tradition, religion, belonging to an ethnic community,
all these are closely related to Banat Bulgarian identity. However, elements
of the Bulgarian language occur very rarely.

Oluşan çeşitli ağrılardan sırt ağrısı problemini çözmek için farklı yöntem ve araçlar kullanılsa da tam anlamı ile bir çözüm sağlanamamaktadır. Bu hedefle biyomimetik tasarım lensi yaklaşımı ile kişi vücut ergonomisine göre şekil alan, bel ve sırt temas yüzeylerine kişinin kilosuna bağlı olarak etki eden yükü absorbe eden standardın üzerinde bir konfor sunacak sırt desteği tasarımı gerçekleştirilmiştir. Doğada bulunan çeşitli çözümler incelenmiş ve kirpi dikenlerinin yüksek darbe sönümleme özelliğine sahip olması sebebiyle hedeflenen tasarımda diken formundan yararlanılmasına karar verilmiştir. Bu kapsamda 3 farklı eylem senaryosu ile yapılan tasarım ve mevcutta kullanılan sırt desteği tasarımı karşılaştırılmıştır. Ayrıca tasarım REBA yöntemi kullanılarak ergonomik açıdan da analiz edilmiştir. Analiz çalışmaları gerçekleştirilirken dikenlerde geri dönüştürülebilir termoplastik elastomer hidrojel malzemesi tercih edilmiştir. Sonuç olarak ortaya konan tasarımın mevcut tasarımlara oranla daha olumlu bir alternatif olacağı anlaşılmıştır.

Since the 1940s scuba diving tourism has become popular all over the world, however, this demand also has brought human-driven negative impacts on underwater surroundings. Reducing adverse effects on the marine environment and maximising the unique scuba diving experience depends on long-term socio-economic benefits and protecting natural and alternative marine resources. Over the last decade, system-based approaches have been developed by researchers to examine the interaction of scuba diving activities. However, a better understanding of principles of sustainability and practices and having a broad knowledge about how these are based on normative aspects can provide advantages for stakeholders in the system to reduce negative impacts. Therefore, this thesis aims to redesign the scuba diving tourism system thorough defining the normative aspects based on principles of sustainability. Investigating the research question “to what extent do the normative aspects of the scuba diving tourism system address principles of sustainability”, this study uses an interpretive paradigm as the phenomenological qualitative research method. As a destination that has developed a distinctive but significant scuba diving tourism sector, the main research took place in the Mediterranean archipelago of Malta using face to face interviews with stakeholders and in-situ observation via active participation. As a result, a new systems approach as `Sustainable Scuba Diving Tourism System` (S-SDTS) is proposed which is redesigned based on normative aspects founded on principles of sustainability.

The objective of this research is to identify the impact of budget deficit financing oninflation and economic growth. Simulation are conducted using the small open macroeconomics model specified by Waluyo (2005) with 10.000 replication on the stochastic simulation. Using the secondary data of the Indonesian economy from 1970 to 2003, simulation results show that budget deficit financing from foreign debt and monetary policies would increase the economic growth, but inflationary. On the other hand, tax effort policies are considered to be better, since simulation results show that they would improve economic growth without being inflationary.Keywords: budget deficit, macroeconomic model, economic growth, simulation
