Purpose: To determine the frequency of allergic conjunctivitis in the period from 2015 to 2020 at the Regional Center of Allergy and Clinical Immunology of the University Hospital “Dr. José Eleuterio González” in Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, Mexico. Methods: Observational, retrospective and descriptive study. The database of all patients with diagnosis of allergic rhinoconjunctivitis seen in the outpatient clinics from January 2015 to May 2020 was reviewed. Results: The incidence from 2015 to 2020 of allergic rhinoconjunctivitis in the Regional Center of Allergy and Clinical Immunology was 1.5% in 2015, 2.7% in 2016, 2.8% in 2017, 3.2% in 2018, 4.2% in 2019 and 2.3% in 2020. The age group with the highest frequency for allergic rhinoconjunctivitis was found in those over 18 years of age; no significant difference was found between men and women. The year 2019 had the highest number of cases. The most common positive allergens in the skin tests of these patients were Dermatophagoides, Cynodon dactylon and Fraxinus americana, for the last two their pollination season were parallel to the peaks where the highest number of consultations were registered in March, April and August. Conclusions: Allergic rhinoconjunctivitis is a disease that has been increasing in recent years and despite the economic and labor burden it represents, there are currently few studies that address the epidemiological characteristics of these patients.
Grover's algorithm in natural settings
Authors: Patel Apoorva D.
Published: July 2021

The execution of Grover's quantum search algorithm needs rather limited resources without much fine tuning. Consequently, the algorithm can be implemented in a variety of physical set-ups, which involve wave dynamics but may not need other quantum features. Several of these set-ups are described, pointing out that some of them occur quite naturally. In particular, it is entirely possible that the algorithm played a key role in the selection of the universal structure of genetic languages.

What is the “opposite” of “blue”? The language of colour wheels
Authors: Dodgson Neil
Published: July 2021

© Society for Imaging Science and Technology 2019 A color wheel is a tool for ordering and understanding hue. Different color wheels differ in the spacing of the colors around the wheel. The opponent-color theory, Munsell's color system, the standard printer's primaries, the artist's primaries, and Newton's rainbow all present different variations of the color wheel. I show that some of this variation is owing to imprecise use of language, based on Berlin and Kay's theory of basic color names. I also show that the artist's color wheel is an outlier that does not match well to the technical color wheels because its principal colors are so strongly connected to the basic color names.
Interpreting and exploiting narrative as a sketch design generator for application in VE
Authors: Brown Andre , Liu Yisi , Webb Nicholas , Knight Mike
Published: July 2021

The research in this paper focusses on how a narrative text can be the
generator of an architectural drawing, or other architectural
representation, such as an Architectural Virtual Environment. The drawn
physical sketch has traditionally played that role. A particular
approach to narrative has been important for some notable architects and
their architecture. Ian Ritchie (2014), for instance, celebrates the
use of poetry to describe the essential spirit of a scheme before any
drawing is done. The work in the paper here describes the proposition to
capture such narrative text in a systematic and structured way. We
describe foundational work on how the captured narrative text has been
translated into a contemporary, computer-mediated, design development
environment. Different narrative accounts recalling a now demolished
house form the focus case study. This case study is the vehicle through
which the initial principles establishing how best to move from
narrative to virtual representation are established and tested.

Using the PEPPA Framework to Develop and Implement a Nurse Practitioner Role Within Canada’s National Ballet School
Authors: Ziegler Erin , Kim Sophia , Bar Rachel J.
Published: July 2021

Aim: To outline the successful development and implementation of a nurse practitioner role within a professional ballet school.

Background: Nurse practitioners are well integrated into primary and acute care in Ontario, yet the role within schools and private athletic institutions is not well documented. Canada’s National Ballet School is a professional ballet school with a combination of day students and those living in residences. Students complete both dance training and academics at the School. The physical and mental health of students was identified as a key priority by the school, leading to the development of an integrated health and wellness program. To facilitate more timely access to healthcare and provide an opportunity for collaboration and consultation within the school, a plan to implement a nurse practitioner role into the school was developed.

Methods: In order to develop and implement the role of the nurse practitioner within the institution, the participatory, evidence-based, patient-focused process for advanced practice nursing role development, implementation, and evaluation (PEPPA) framework was used. The first seven steps of the PEPPA framework were applied in this project.

Findings: The PEPPA framework allowed for us to identify key barriers and facilitators for the role implementation and successfully implement the nurse practitioner role. While the initial plan was for a slower implementation, the COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the need for a nurse practitioner in the institution more urgently.

Conclusion: The PEPPA framework provided us with an organized process for developing and implementing the nurse practitioner role at Canada’s National Ballet School.

Authors: Sibeko Nomkhosi B  , Mzwandile Mabuza  , Tamado Tana
Published: July 2021

Okra is a nutritious summer vegetable crop in Eswatini. However, it has slow and uneven germination. Seed pre-sowing treatment through osmo-priming can enhance the germination, growth and yield of okra. Thus, laboratory and field experiments were conducted at Luyengo, Middleveld of Eswatini in 2019/2020 cropping season to determine the effect of osmo-priming on germination, growth and yield of okra. Treatments included priming of seeds with Polyethylene glycol (PEG) concentration of 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20% and unprimed control. Completely randomized design was used for the laboratory experiment and randomized complete block design was used for the field experiment. Results showed significant (p<0.01) effect of seed priming on the germination index, mean germination time and final germination percentage of okra seeds. Significantly the highest germination index (5.2) and final germination percentage (66) were recorded in priming with 15% PEG. Similarly, seeds priming with 15% PEG resulted in significantly the highest number of leaves per plant (12.07), leaf area index (1.49), canopy height (120.9 cm), and number of branches per plant (8.13). Moreover, okra seeds primed in 15% PEG resulted in the highest pod length and total green pod yield (2009.8 kg ha-1). Thus, it can be concluded that seed priming with 15% PEG is the most effective in improving the germination, growth and yield of okra in the study area.

Investigation of Anti-Coronavirus, Anti-HCV, Nucleotide Inhibitors, and Bioactive Molecules efficacy Against RNA-directed RNA polymerase of Nipah Virus: Molecular Docking Study
Authors: Habib Peter T.
Published: July 2021

Introduction: The infections with the Nipah virus (NiV) are highly infectious and may lead to severe febrile encephalitis. High mortality rates in southeastern Asia, including Bengal, Malaysia, Papua New Guinea, Vietnam, Cambodia, Indonesia, Madagascar, the Philippines, Thailand, and India, have been reported in NiV outbreaks. Considering the high risk of an epidemic, NiV was declared a priority pathogen by the World Health Organization. However, for the treatment of this infection, there is no effective therapy or approved FDA medicines. RNA-dependent polymerase RNA (RdRp) plays an important role in viral replication among the nine well-known proteins of NiV.Material and Methods: Fourteen antiviral molecules have been computerized for NiV RNA-dependent RNA polymerase and demonstrated a potential inhibition effect against coronavirus (NiV-RdRp). A multi-step molecular docking process, followed by extensive analyzes of molecular binding interactions, binding energy estimates, synthetic accessibility assessments, and toxicity tests.Results: Molecular docking analysis reveals that Uprifosbuvir is the most suitable inhibitor for RdRp of Nipah Virus regarding the binding affinity and binding in the target cavity. Although, such studies need clinical confirmation.Conclusion: The role of anti-viral molecules as a ligand against RNA-dependent RNA polymerase is critical important in the current era. Computational tools such as molecular docking has proven its power in the analysis of molecules interaction. Our analysis reveals the Uprifosbuvir might be a candidate RdRp inhibitor. This study should further investigate the properties of the already identified anti-viral molecules followed by a pharmacological investigation of these in-silico findings in suitable models.
Psychoanalysis between culturology and cultural studies
Authors:   r, federal state budget institution of higher education «Kazan State Institute of Culture», Vavilov Pavel S.
Published: July 2021

The article is devoted to the relationship between psychoanalysis, cultural studies and culturology. More attention is paid to the analysis of the conceptual and methodological contribution of psychoanalytic theory to cultural studies. The author emphasizes the nature of the reception of psychoanalytic theories in Western science, demonstrating that the invasion of psychoanalysis into the field of cultural studies, as well as the dynamics of their mutual influence was conditioned by the general ideological attitudes of «suspicion» towards the institutions of power. Psychoanalysis brings its methodological usefulness to cultural studies in that it can be used to reveal the conditions of creation and consumption of cultural products, the discovery of the subject’s representation strategies, and the degree of the researcher’s engagement. The conclusion is made that a productive dialogue between practicing psychoanalysts, researchers in the theory of psychoanalysis, as well as scholars involved in the theory and history of culture is necessary for the integration of modern psychoanalytic theory into domestic culturology.

Authors:   federal state budget educational institution of higher education «Saint Petersburg State University of Culture», Zaitseva Maria V.
Published: July 2021

A long-term, mutually interesting relationship with the public is the goal of most of the world’s museums. The author of the article suggests that a promising form of organizing museum events are programs of a regular type, formed into thematic cycles. The study explains both theoretical grounds and practical arguments emphasizing the relevance of the application of this form of events in the practice of museums. The study was based on the experience of The National Pushkin Museum, which demonstrated the possibility of multifaceted coverage of a given topic within thematic cycles, synthesizing in one event different forms of impact on the visitor. Review of cycle-type programs of two other museums – The Pushkin Museum and The State Literature Museum, confirms the conclusions that this form of organizing events contributes to the development of the cultural and educational aspect of museum activities, an increase in the number of regular visitors, an increase in the professional motivation of museum staff, and forms a favorable image of the museum, increasing its competitiveness. The prospect of cyclical events is reflected in modern trends in society towards self-education.

The article describes the experience of analyzing a literary text in the light of the concept of heterotopy developed by M. Foucault. The features of the embodiment of «other spaces» in the prose of M. Kuraev, the «classic» of the modern «Petersburg text», are considered. For M. Kuraev’s artistic method, the advice of localizing an action in a limited space, which acquires the status of «other» in the context of a work, is quite typical. The most obvious use of the technique in the novel «Montachki’s Mirror», where the object of artistic research was the Leningrad communal apartment, the narrative representation of which contains the typical features of heterotopy.

Published: July 2021

135th anniversary of Honorary balletmaster of Russia Fedor V. Lopukhov is the reason for writing this article. Honoring the legacy of a choreographer and theorist of choreographic art, whose popularity was high in the 1920–1960s, a recognition of respect and worship to a person who sought new ways of developing the national classical ballet theatre is in great demand nowadays. From 1922 to 1930, F. V. Lopukhov held a position as the head of ballet at the State Academic Opera and Ballet Theater, currently known as the Mariinsky. Lopukhov created a variety of innovative ballets, among them famous productions of „Ice maiden”,„Pulcinella”,„A tale of a Fox, a Rooster, a Cat and a Ram”,„Nutcracker”,„Bolt”. Some of the productions were phenomenally successful and remained in the repertoire for many years, while other new works were not appreciated within a post-revolutionary culture. The stage elements and movements invented by Lopukhov influenced the further development of the entire art of ballet. The article shows how difficult the creative life of F. V. Lopukhov was full of “ups and downs” in a complicated historical and cultural era for everyone.

Abstract

There are many media that can be used in learning to improve children's speaking skills, one of which is Youtube. This study aims to determine the effect of YouTube media on speaking skills of 3 year olds. This research is a qualitative descriptive study. The research subject was a 3 year old child. Data collection in this study was carried out by means of observation, interviews, and field notes. The results showed that there was an influence on the speaking skills of 3 year olds due to Youtube media in the form of cartoon videos. This can be seen from the subject's interest when watching cartoon videos. Youtube is also seen as a learning medium in language acquisition for children, but the other side that is no less important is the interaction of parents who stimulate children's communication reasoning power. This is what helps children absorb what they see on YouTube to their parents and those around them. So it can be concluded that Youtube media contributes to speaking skills in children aged 3 years.
Institutional reform and change management: The conversion of polytechnics to technical universities
Authors:   Bolgatanga Technical University, Ghana, Akanpaadgi Emmanuel
Published: July 2021

This research paper sought to review the way and manner the conversion of polytechnics in Ghana to technical universities were done to ascertain whether the process conformed to standard best practice. The inequality in terms of placement of polytechnic graduates in the public sector as compared to the traditional university graduates, lack of direct academic progression for polytechnic graduates with Higher National Diploma, low enrollment and the departure of experienced staff from the polytechnics to the traditional universities due to poor conditions of service leaving the polytechnics with less staff compelled the government to initiate the reform. Institutional reform has been a long-standing practice in the educational sector; however, the implementation of new policies remains a challenge to many public institutions in Ghana. The one-size-fits-all approach to managing change must give way to a multi-faceted approach that takes into consideration the diversity of the various stakeholders affected by the change. The adoption of an appropriate change model and proper engagement of stakeholders as well as handling the transition as a project rather than treating it like the usual work of the ministry of education would have eased the tension and agitations which characterized the conversion process. Despite the conversion period spanning almost four years, the stakeholders are yet to reap the full benefits of the reform.

The effects of reciprocal teaching on the perceived reading comprehension self-efficacy of 2nd-grade pupils: Reflections of the pupils and their teacher
Authors:   Educational Sciences, Kirsehir Ahi Evran University, Kirsehir, Turkey, Kula Sultan Selen
Published: July 2021

This study examined the effects of reciprocal teaching on the perceived reading comprehension self-efficacy of 2nd-grade pupils. The study was designed in pre-post test experimental design with a control group. Qualitative data was also collected from the intervention group students and the classroom teacher who carried out the intervention lessons. Participants consist of typically developing 2nd-grade pupils from a state primary school (n = 34) in Turkey. While the intervention group used a total of 36 lesson hours of reciprocal teaching techniques for 6 lessons per week for 6 weeks, the lesson was taught in traditional ways in the control group. According to the research findings, there was no statistically significant difference between the post-test scores of the intervention and control groups. Students stated that the most difficult reciprocal teaching strategy was summarizing, while the easiest was the prediction. As a result of the observations of the classroom teacher who conducted the intervention lessons, the positive effects of reciprocal teaching on the pupils' reading comprehension were emphasized. For this reason, it is suggested that the use of reciprocal teaching in Literacy lessons should be widespread in Turkey.
Backlash against the #MeToo movement: How women's voice causes men to feel victimized
Authors: Lisnek Jaclyn Arielle , Wilkins Clara L , Wilson Megan , Ekstrom Pierce D.
Published: July 2021

Three studies examined whether perceived increases in women's "voice" (i.e., being heard and taken seriously about sexual assault) contributes to perceptions of bias against men. In Study 1, both men and women who perceived women to have greater voice related to sexual assault perceived greater victimization of men. This relationship was stronger for relatively conservative participants. In Study 2, relatively conservative (but not relatively liberal) participants who read about #MeToo perceived greater men’s victimization than those in the control condition. Study 3 examined responses to perceiving that men are victimized by #MeToo. For relatively conservative (but not liberal) men, perceptions of men’s victimhood lead to less willingness to work alone with a woman and less willingness to combat sexual assault (relative to a control condition). Thus, while the #MeToo movement brings awareness to issues of sexual assault, it also generates backlash among the more conservative and may accentuate gender disparities.

Advocates of transparency in science often point to the benefits of transparency for the scientific process. Here, we focus on a possibly underappreciated effect of standards for transparency: their influence on non-scientific decisions. As a case study, we consider the current state of probabilistic genotyping (PG) software in forensics.
Final Ummul Fadilah(019) Kepemilikan Dalam Perspektif Islam
Authors: FADILAH UMMUL
Published: July 2021

Islam memberikan ruang dan kesempatan kepada manusia untuk mengakses segala sumber kekayaan yang dianugerahkan-Nya di bumi ini, guna memenuhi semua tuntutan kehidupannya. Konsep kepemilikan dalam ajaran Islam berangkat dari pandangan bahwa manusia memiliki kecendrungan dasar (fithrah) untuk memiliki harta secara individual, tetapi juga membutuhkan pihak lain dalam kehidupan sosialnya. Harta atau kekayaan yang telah dianugerahkan-Nya di alam semesta ini, merupakan pemberian dari Allah kepada manusia untuk dapat dimanfaatkan dengan sebaik-baiknya guna kesejahteraan seluruh umat manusia secara ekonomi, sesuai dengan kehendak Allah Swt.
Are there jumps in evidence accumulation, and what, if anything, do they reflect psychologically? An analysis of Lévy-Flights models of decision-making

According to existing theories of simple decision-making, decisions are initiated by continuously sampling and accumulating perceptual evidence until a threshold value has been reached. Many models, such as the diffusion decision model, assume a noisy accumulation process, described mathematically as a stochastic Wiener process with Gaussian distributed noise. Recently, an alternative account of decision-making has been proposed in the Lévy Flights (LF) model, in which accumulation noise is characterized by a heavy-tailed power-law distribution, controlled by a parameter, α. The LF model produces sudden large “jumps” in evidence ac- cumulation that are not produced by the standard Wiener diffusion model, which some have argued provide better fits to data. It remains unclear, however, whether jumps in evidence accumulation have any real psychological meaning. Here, we investigate the conjecture by Voss et al. (2019) that jumps might reflect sudden shifts in the source of evidence people rely on to make decisions. We reason that if jumps are psychologically real, we should observe systematic reductions in jumps as people become more practiced with a task (i.e., as people converge on a stable decision strategy with experience). We fitted four versions of the LF model to behavioral data from a study by Evans and Brown (2017), using a five-layer deep inference neural network for parameter estimation. The analysis revealed systematic reductions in jumps as a function of practice, such that the LF model more closely approximated the standard Wiener model over time. This trend could not be attributed to other sources of parameter variability, speaking against the possibility of trade-offs with other model parameters. Our analysis suggests that jumps in the LF model might be capturing strategy instability exhibited by relatively inexpe- rienced observers early on in task performance. We conclude that further investigation of a potential psychological interpretation of jumps in evidence accumulation is warranted.
A Social Inference Model of Idealization and Devaluation

People often form polarized beliefs about others. In a clinical setting this is referred to as a dichotomous or ‘split’ representation of others, whereby others are not imbued with possessing mixtures of opposing properties. Here, we formalise these accounts as an oversimplified categorical model of others’ internal, intentional, states. We show how a resulting idealization and devaluation of others can be stabilized by attributing unexpected behaviour to fictive external factors. For example, under idealization, less-than-perfect behaviour is attributed to unfavourable external conditions, thereby maintaining belief in the other’s goodness. This feature of the model accounts for how extreme beliefs are buffered against counter-evidence, while at the same time being prone to precipitous changes of polarity. Equivalent inference applied to the self creates an oscillation between self-aggrandizement and self-deprecation, capturing oscillatory relational and affective dynamics. Notably, such oscillatory dynamics arise out of the Bayesian nature of the model, wherein a subject arrives at the most plausible explanation for their observations, given their current expectations. Thus, the model we present accounts for aspects of splitting that appear ‘defensive’, without the need to postulate a specific defensive intention. By contrast, we associate psychological health with a fine-grained representation of internal states, constrained by an integrated prior, corresponding to notions of ‘character’. Finally, the model predicts that extreme appraisals of self or other are associated with causal attribution errors.

Background: Learning preference is a complex character in which learners most efficiently perceive, process, store, and recall what they are learning.
Objectives: This study was conducted with an objective to identify the preferred learning styles of undergraduate dental students such that suitable modification in the teaching learning environment could be made.
Methodology: An analytical cross-sectional study was carried at B.P. Koirala Institute of Health Sciences, Nepal among undergraduate dental students from June to December 2019 after getting ethical approval. Convenience sampling method was used to include all undergraduate students from first to final year; of which 252 provided consent. VARK questionnaire (version 7.8) comprising 16 multiple choice questions were used to analyse the learning preferences and were accordingly categorised for further statistical analysis.
Results: Out of 280 students, a total of 252 students (90%; 90 males, 162 females) responded to the questionnaire among whom 89 (35.3%) had uni-modal learning preferences. Of the total, 55 (21.8%) had bi-modal, 39 (15.4%) had tri-modal, and 69 (27.3%) had quadri-modal learning preferences. Among the uni-modal preferences, 'K mild' was most common (36, 14.3%) followed by 'A mild'. Among bi-modal learning preferences 'AK type' (35, 13.9%) was most common and VAK type was common among tri-modal learning preferences. 'VARK type two' (33, 13.1%) was common quadri-modal learning preferences.
Conclusion: This study highlighted the variations in learning preferences among dental students suggesting the need for a flexible learning environment. Understanding learning preferences can help to plan lessons effectively and help to manage students in a better way.

Mandibular fractures are one of the most frequent occurrences in maxillofacial trauma. Age of the patient, presence of additional injuries, co-morbid diseases of the patient, trauma type, and localization of the fracture must be considered while choosing the treatment strategy. A 12-year-old female patient reported with the complaint of fallen teeth due to trauma three days back. Clinical and radiographic findings revealed symphysis fracture with left sided parasymphysis and subcondylar fracture along with avulsion of 11 and 21. Intermaxillary fixation was done with Erich arch bars and elastics for the management of mandibular fracture, and rehabilitation of edentulous space was done using the avulsed teeth as pontics which were bonded to the adjacent abutment teeth using fiber-reinforced composite.
(Never)mind the Evidence

The aim of the paper is to analyse the extent to which the recent Croatian regulation on migration (legislation and policy documents) is grounded on evidence and builds on empirical data drawn from the processes and draft legislation, public consultations, impact assessment, parliamentary discussions, parliamentary questions of members of Parliament, and evaluation reports. In this way, the paper also provides a deeper insight into the development of migration regulation, from agenda-setting to the adoption of regulation. Research has enabled the authors to discuss the possibilities to improve migration law-making by means of evidence-based law-making techniques and other better regulation instruments. Several conclusions have been made: that evidence-based law-making is useful in complex issues such as migration; that evidence should be primarily used in the legislative process at the EU level in the areas that fall under the EU competences; that evidence is most beneficial in the early, preparatory phases of law-making; that it is necessary to connect the assessment of the relevance and adequacy of empirical data used and their linkage to the effectiveness of migration legislation. The use of better regulation instruments in developing migration regulation might contribute to more transparency and accountability, as well as to the reduction of arbitrary use of power by public authorities, and thus foster the standards and principles of the rule of law.
