Including older adults in variationist sociolinguistics via mobile self-recording
Authors: Wagner Suzanne Evans
Published: August 2023

Variationist sociolinguistics has made significant contributions to linguistics and allied fields in the study of language variation and change. Yet within this paradigm, older adults remain understudied. There are non-trivial methodological challenges to collecting language data from the old age population. However, the Covid-19 pandemic led to increasing use of remote data collection methods that could fruitfully be employed with older adults. The MI Diaries project’s rich and growing collection of self-recorded ‘audio diaries’ via a custom mobile app demonstrates the success of this technology. An open-source version of the app, currently in development, will be adaptable to older users. For individuals who feel isolated, sending regular self-recordings to a responsive research team could be socially beneficial. As for variationist sociolinguistics, remote technologies could allow for greater engagement with outstanding  research questions about older adults’ sociolinguistic identities and their participation in language change.
On foliations of bounded mean curvature on closed three-dimensional Riemannian manifolds
Authors: Bolotov Dmytry
Published: August 2023

The notion of systole of a foliation sys(ℱ) on an arbitrary foliated closed Riemannian manifold (M,ℱ) is introduced. A lower bound on sys(ℱ) of a bounded mean curvature foliation is given. As a corollary we prove that the number of Reeb components of a bounded mean curvature foliation on a closed oriented Riemannian 3-manifold M is bounded above by a constant depending on the volume, the radius of injectivity, and the maximum value of the sectional curvature of the manifold M.

Value Narratives in Sexuality Education: Teachers’ Preparedness or Retreat?
Authors: Bytautas Marius , Daukilas Sigitas
Published: August 2023

The paper analyses the value narratives on youth sex education presented to the public by influencers and parents of school-age children. The research questions are: what is the content of the value narratives in the field of sexuality presented to the public by influencers and parents of school-age children? what is the motivational environment for teachers delivering sex education? what are the possible principles of communication between teachers, organisations involved in sex education, and parents? The empirical research data were collected using a mixed methods strategy. The methodological and value differences between the institutions providing sex education in Lithuania were found to be insignificant, nevertheless, there are significant differences in the value narratives between the concepts of ‘sexuality education’ and ‘sex education’ in the public sphere. Parents of school-age children are exposed to fragmented, value-indoctrinated sex education content presented by influencers, leading to social tensions in school communities regarding children’s sex education. The analysis of the narratives of influencers and parents on the topic of sex education shows that the constructive participation of interested groups (educators, parents, social organisations) in the policy of sex education is impossible without the principles of critical analysis, attention to conflicts, and social dialogue.

There have been numerous research studies stating the fact that the pandemic affected people with disabilities’ working lives. Less research has been conducted on how people with disabilities coped with and learned from these challenges. This scoping review maps research conducted in the field of disability research and multidisciplinary research, published from the outbreak of the pandemic until October 31, 2022. The focus is on how people with disabilities adapted their working lives to the conditions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and what working practices and strategies they applied to manage the situation. From an extensive search in bibliographic databases, eight research articles were identified. The review results reveal both challenges and new openings for the working life of people with disabilities post-pandemic. Implications for future research are identified, addressing intersectionality, hybrid work environments, digital gaps and increased participation of people with disabilities in research.
High-intensity laser therapy for hamstring muscle tightness: rationale and study design for a single-blinded randomized controlled trial
Authors: Srivastav Adarsh Kumar , Goyal Manu , Samuel Asir John
Published: August 2023

BACKGROUND: Prolonged sitting and a sedentary lifestyle may result in hamstring shortness. A decline in regular physical activity could lead to a decrease in the flexibility of the muscle in a younger adult. Increasing hamstring muscle flexibility could decrease the possibility of injuries and prevent low back pain. The application of high-intensity laser therapy (HILT) has proved to be innumerable benefits for many conditions. However, to date, no published research is available on the effectiveness of this therapy in improving hamstring muscle length in healthy young adults. This article describes the study protocol for investigating the benefits of HILT in treating hamstring muscle tightness among young adults. METHODS: 136 healthy young individuals will be recruited, by purposive sampling method, to participate in a randomized, single-blinded, sham-controlled study. Recruited participants will be randomly divided into two groups, the active HILT group, and the sham HILT group. The treatment duration will be 8-10 minutes per session, on both lower limbs, for alternate days a week, for two weeks. The active knee extension test and sit-toe and touch test are the outcome measures that will be recorded at baseline, end of the 2-week post-intervention period. The p-value ≤0.05 will be considered statistically significant. DISCUSSION: The study findings will provide the data to determine whether HILT would be a future non-pharmacological non-invasive intervention to reduce hamstring muscle tightness among young adults.

Polyester microplastics (PS) are toxic and hazardous chemicals in the ecosystem that can induce stress. Disposing PS articles into the environment can negatively impact health of aquatic biota, including fish. This study aimed to investigate the potential of probiotics or vitamin C supplementation in improving the histological structure of organs and cytokine secretion in tilapia fish exposed to PS. Thirty-six tilapia were divided into 12 groups consisting of treatment groups (four PS concentration variations: 0, 0.1, 1, and 10 mg/L). Each treatment was given three types of feed: Commercial feed alone, commercial feed containing probiotics (200 mL/kg), and commercial feed containing vitamin C (100 mg/kg). The study had a sample size of n=3. After treatment was completed, all parameters were measured. The result showed that the addition of probiotics and vitamin C could decrease TNF-α levels and increase IFN-γ levels. Probiotics and vitamin C prevent healthy cells to be damaged by pro-inflammatory cytokines. The percentage of normal hepatocytes increased significantly in all treatment groups with the addition of probiotics or vitamin C. Furthermore, the percentage of hepatocytes with swelling and necrosis decreased significantly in treatment groups (p < 0.05). Additionally, villi height, lamina propria width, submucosa height, and the number of goblet cells all increased significantly in all treatment groups with the administration of probiotics or vitamin C (p < 0.05). Overall, both probiotics and vitamin C supplements have the potential to maintain fish health. Vitamin C exhibits a greater potential than probiotics in regulating immune responses. Meanwhile, both probiotics and vitamin C supplements have potential to inhibit damage to the hepatic and intestine structures of fish exposed to PS.
In Vitro and in Silico Study on the Interaction between Apigenin, Kaempferol and 4-Hydroxybenzoic Acid in Xanthine Oxidase Inhibition

Published: August 2023

Xanthine oxidase (XO) is a biological enzyme that takes part in purine catabolism. It catalyses the conversion of hypoxanthine to xanthine and eventually xanthine to uric acid. The catabolism reaction increases the level of uric acid and subsequently leads to hyperuricemia. Allopurinol is a XO inhibitor that is used clinically to prevent purine catabolism. Although it is an effective XO inhibitor, it causes some side effects. Therefore, a more effective inhibitor with fewer side effects is in an urgent need. Phenolic compounds have been identified as effective XO inhibitors in many studies. In vitro and in silico study were conducted to investigate the interaction between apigenin, kaempferol and 4-hydroxybenzoic acid in XO inhibition. Apigenin was found to be the most effective XO inhibitor among the compounds tested with the best docking score of -8.2 kcal/mol as demonstrated in the molecular docking simulation which indicated its favourable interaction with XO enzyme. Additive interactions between compounds namely apigenin-kaempferol, apigenin-4-hydroxybenzoic acid and 4-hydroxybenzoic acid-kaempferol were demonstrated in both in vitro and in silico studies. The results showed that 4-hydroxybenzoic acid- apigenin (-7.4 kcal/mol) was the most stable ligands combination docked to XO. The multiple ligands docking simulation showed independent ligands bound to the XO active site at non-interfering regional location. In conclusion, the combination of these three compounds can be explored further for their additive interaction in XO inhibition, which could be beneficial in terms of the enhanced effectiveness and lower side effects when each is used at lower dose to give the same effect.

Published: August 2023

Carrageenan is one of the most prominent hydrocolloids in the food industry used as a thickener and additive to improve the texture of food products. However, the detection of carrageenan in the food product is still limited as many interferences in the food matrix can interfere with the signal obtained. This research aims to study the effect of interference species on a simple and rapid quantitative detection of carrageenan by using a cationic dye which is methylene blue. Methylene blue will form a complex with carrageenan at 565 nm due to the hypsochromic shift of the methylene blue peak at 664 nm with a color change from blue to bluish purple. The optimization and analytical performance of carrageenan-methylene blue complexes were characterized by using UV-Visible Spectrophotometer. A dynamic linear concentration range for carrageenan detection was obtained in the range of 70-100 ppm (R2 = 0.9837) with a limit of detection (LOD) estimated at 38.37 ppm. The reproducibility study was found to give a satisfactory relative standard deviation (RSD) value of 1.64-1.94%. Selectivity experiments were carried out where the methylene blue demonstrated acceptable selectivity towards carrageenan with no significant interference from sucrose and glucose.

Published: August 2023

This review discusses the legal aspects on the use of mathematical statistics and machine learning (hereinafter referred to as artificial intelligence) in forensic activities to identify both expert errors and fake expert opinions. An attempt has been made to establish the criteria for evaluating conclusions of forensic examinations by determining their relevance, admissibility, reliability, and objectivity, as well as the objective possibility of distinguishing expert errors from deliberately false and fake expert opinions. A SWOT analysis on the use of artificial intelligence was carried out to solve the issue of its application in the field under consideration, which revealed its advantages, and disadvantages. The use of mathematical statistics and machine learning methods is not a universal method to identify fakes in expert opinions. However, given that this method can give both false-positive and false-negative results, its outcomes should be verified by independent experts. In addition, to effectively prevent the facts of falsification, comprehensive measures should be taken, including not only the detection of manipulations but also the prevention of the possibility of their occurrence, as well as the punishment of the perpetrators. Thus, this review proposed several amendments and additions to the current legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

Remote Therapeutic Monitoring in Rheumatic and Musculoskeletal Diseases: Opportunities and Implementation
Authors: Nowell W. Benjamin , Curtis Jeffrey
Published: August 2023

Therapeutic Monitoring (RTM) is a new program in the United States that began in 2022 allowing electronic patient-reported outcomes (ePRO) and other patient-generated data to be reviewed by clinical staff between visits so that patients can receive clinical attention as needed. Remote Therapeutic Monitoring simultaneously enhances the capacity to generate prospective longitudinal data that may be useful for secondary research purposes. As many governmental and private insurance programs in the United States now provide reimbursement for Remote Therapeutic Monitoring, increasing numbers of rheumatologists may be incentivized to provide this service for their patient populations. Launched in 2015, the ArthritisPower® Research Registry and associated mobile and desktop application, registered with the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) as a Class I medical device, enables patients to track their disease across dozens of domains and to securely participate in voluntary research studies. ArthritisPower, in partnership with Illumination Health, has developed infrastructure and a clinical workflow for Remote Therapeutic Monitoring that will help rheumatologists more closely track their patients’ disease activity and flares, identify primary non-adherence, record changes in key health domains (e.g. fatigue, pain, physical function, mental health) and meet the needs for other data elements important for clinical care identified by individual providers. Ultimately, the approach to use digital health tools between visits seeks to improve clinical outcomes for patients with rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases. This editorial review discusses the evolution of remote monitoring in rheumatologic care, describes the opportunities for physician reimbursement as of 2023, and provides a suggested workflow in order to establish Remote Therapeutic Monitoring within rheumatology practices.
Internet Health Information on Patient’s Decision-Making: Implications, Opportunities and Challenges
Authors: Vega Elena , Zepeda Maria , Gutierrez Eduardo , Martinez Maria , Gomez Samia , Caldera Sebastian
Published: August 2023

The accessibility of online health information has changed the decision-making process for patients concerning their health. Nevertheless, concerns persist regarding the quality and reliability of the information available on the Internet. The Internet has emerged as the dominant global source of health-related information, with a significant proportion of individuals utilizing it to retrieve information on nutrition, diseases, symptoms, and treatment options. However, the unregulated nature of online health information poses challenges in terms of assessing its credibility and accuracy. Increasingly, patients are actively engaged in healthcare decision-making, empowered by the information they acquire online. Consequently, a paradigm shift from the traditional physician-centric model to a more collaborative and patient-centered approach has occurred. Patients now have access to an expanded array of healthcare professionals and possess the ability to make informed decisions regarding their treatment and care. Nonetheless, the variability in quality of online health information and patients' limited capacity to effectively evaluate it can give rise to misunderstandings, misinformation, and an elevated propensity for self-diagnosis and self-treatment. Furthermore, patients' reliance on online information can impact the patient-physician relationship, with discrepancies between online findings and physician diagnoses leading to dissatisfaction and conflicts. Barriers obstructing effective patient-physician communication on online health information include patient's apprehension about challenging physicians, perceived resistance from physicians themselves, and difficulties in comprehending and articulating the information sourced online. Addressing these barriers and enhancing the patient-physician relationship can yield positive outcomes, including timely diagnosis, effective treatment, and shared decision-making. While Internet use brings advantages such as increased accessibility to healthcare providers and enhanced patient empowerment, it also introduces certain disadvantages. The prevalence of misinformation and disinformation on the Internet engenders risks, contributing to confusion and a lack of trust in healthcare institutions. Additionally, patients may encounter challenges in interpreting and prioritizing the information they find online, which can result in heightened anxiety and uncertainty regarding their health. This review critically examines the impact of Internet use on patient decision-making and its effect on the patient-physician relationship.
Relationship between Positive Attitude and Marital Separation: The US Evidence
Authors: Mohanty Madhu
Published: August 2023

Objective: The study tests the hypothesis that positive attitude of an individual influences his/her decision for marital separation negatively. It extends this analysis to investigate whether these two variables may affect each other simultaneously. Finally, it examines whether the marital separation decision of men differs from that of women. Methods: Using two samples from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth, 1979 (NLSY79), a longitudinal data set from the United States, the study estimates marital separation equation by probit in both cross-sectional and longitudinal frameworks. To test for the presence of a simultaneous relationship between positive attitude and marital separation, the study further estimates these two equations by an appropriate two-stage probit procedure. In addition, the study estimates these equations for males and females separately and draws interesting conclusions. Results: Results obtained by single-equation methods under both cross-sectional and longitudinal frameworks indicate that positive attitude is a significant covariate of an individual’s marital separation decision regardless of whether he/she is a younger adult or a mature adult. Following Maddala’s two-stage probit procedure, the study further demonstrates that an individual’s marital status and positive attitude are simultaneously related among mature adult women only. The evidence of a recursive relationship between these two variables in both younger and mature adult samples indicate to a large extent that positive attitude may in fact have a causal effect on marital separation. The study further finds the evidence that covariates of marital separation and positive attitude differ significantly between men and women. Conclusion: Evidence of a strong negative correlation between positive attitude and marital separation demonstrated in this study indicates that any policy to improve the attitude of an individual may have a favorable effect on marital relationship.

Published: August 2023

Limb salvage surgery for bone tumours may vary from endoprosthesis to biological fixation. Endoprosthesis is good but expensive and durability is short. Especially in physically active individuals like our patients. Orthopaedic surgeons and scientists are still searching for substitutes for this purpose. We have performed liquid nitrogen-treated autograft as a bone filler for a patient with Ewing sarcoma of the right tibia. This treatment method has not been practised widely. This method is not expensive and reproducible. The patient recovered completely and started to weight bearing. A liquid nitrogen-treated autograft is an alternative option for patients with Ewing sarcoma. Anyway, long-term follow-up studies are mandatory to prove its efficacy compared to other treatment modalities. The procedure, outcome and complications are described in this case report.

Published: August 2023

This study examined how depression mediated the effects of internalized shame on relational aggression among university students. Questionnaires based on the internalized shame scale, relational aggression scale, and depression scale were distributed to university students in Seoul, Incheon, Gyeonggi, Gangwon, Busan, Daegu, Ulsan, Gyeongsang, Daejeon, Sejong, Chungcheong, Gwangju, Jeolla, and Jeju. A total of 432 valid responses were used in the final analysis. Each variable was set as a research model and as a competition model based on the collected data. SPSS 28.0 was used for the correlation analysis of each variable. Additionally, AMOS 18.0 was used to verify the effect of depression by setting up a model that would best explain the effects of internalized shame on relational aggression. The results of the study are as follows: First, a positive correlation was noted between university students' internalized shame and depression. Second, a significant positive correlation was observed between university students' depression and relational aggression. Third, depression was found to indirectly influence the effect of university students' internalized shame on relational aggression. Based on the above findings, the significance, limitations, and implications of this study for further research are discussed.
Digital currency and associated categories in the legislation of the Russian Federation: problems of distinction.
Authors: Никитин Дмитрий
Published: August 2023

The article discusses the correlation and differentiation of the concept of "digital currency" with such legal categories as "digital financial assets", "digital rights", "electronic money", "cash", "money surrogate" and "information". At the same time, the study described in the article focused on two aspects: the legal definition of digital currency, and the concept formulated by the author. In particular, a legal conflict in Russian legislation was disclosed in the form of two mutually contradictory norms: the rule on the possibility of using digital currency as a means of payment and (or) investment, and the rule of prohibition of the issuance and circulation of money substitutes on the territory of the Russian Federation. The results of the study showed the advantage of the author's approach to the definition of digital currency for solving issues of differentiation with related legal categories.

O delineamento experimental foi inteiramente casualizado, com 3 tratamentos e 6 repetições de 7 animais cada. Os tratamentos constituíram de ração controle (base de milho e farelo de soja), ração controle com inclusão de óleo funcional de copaíba e ração controle com antibióticos. Foram avaliados os efeitos das dietas experimentais sobre os parâmetros de qualidade de ovos, bioquímica sanguínea e análises da biometria óssea ao final de três ciclos de 21 dias cada. Dentre os resultados obtidos com a inclusão do óleo funcional de copaíba, análise de qualidade de ovos resultou em valores significativos para peso de albúmen, % gema, pH gema e cor; para bioquímica sérica os dados mostraram-se significativos para fósforo, cálcio, proteínas totais, glicose, amilase, TGO e TGP; enquanto para os dados da biometria óssea apenas tíbia demostrou significância para peso. Concluindo que o óleo funcional de copaíba interfere nos parâmetros de qualidade de ovos, sanguíneos e ósseos de codornas em postura.
Modelo de regressão spline, com efeitos mistos e erros autorregressivos de médias móveis, aplicado aos dados da Covid-19 nos estados do Sul e Sudeste do Brasil

Published: August 2023

Este trabalho tem como objetivo apresentar um método para ajustar dados longitudinais de casos confirmados e acumulados de Covid-19, proporcionalmente ao número de habitantes dos estados das regiões Sul e Sudeste do Brasil, considerando o tempo como variável explicativa. Com o modelo proposto, é possível fazer previsões de novos casos da doença como forma de oferecer suporte para gestores públicos e privados na elaboração e planejamento de estratégias para prevenir ou atenuar impactos sociais e econômicos de doenças de propagação viral coma a Covid-19 e outras doenças com propagação similar. Considerou-se modelos de regressão spline com efeitos mistos, úteis para ajuste de dados correlacionados que não possuam relação linear, e modelos autorregressivos e de médias móveis (ARMA) para os resíduos, uma vez que estes apresentaram essa característica, além de serem estacionários. Utilizou-se o modelo de regressão spline cúbica com efeitos mistos para calcular as taxas de crescimento e para predição de observações futuras do número acumulado de infectados pela Covid-19 nos sete estados estudados. Os resultados obtidos demonstraram boa concordância entre os dados ajustados com o modelo e os dados observados para todos os estados analisados. As previsões para os estados de São Paulo, Espírito Santo e Minas Gerais apresentaram os menores valores absolutos dos desvios relativos entre valores preditos e observados.
De la analogía del otro a la responsabilidad infinita, entre Edmund Husserl y Emanuel Levinas
Authors: Jiménez-Restrepo Alejandro , Duque-Naranjo Nicolás
Published: August 2023

La presente investigación se circunscribe dentro del campo temático de la fenomenología trascendental de Edmund Husserl. Y tiene como objetivo el tratar de dilucidar dentro de la misma inmanencia de la experiencia trascendental del yo pienso, el modo no solo como surge la intersubjetividad, sino cómo este último concepto al igual que el de la egología, tienen como fundamento una noción de subjetividad moderna que por un lado, aparece dentro de la arquitectónica fenomenológica, como constituyente de sentido dentro de la meditación husserliana, y por otro, puede aparecer como una noción que impide la elaboración de un nuevo concepto de hombre que incluya en su seno la alteridad, tal y como piensa Emmanuel Lévinas, y con ello, la posibilidad de hablar de un yo separado que no encuentre en lo otro una mera analogía suya, o extensión de su propia inmanencia, sino antes bien, la posibilidad de hallar en eso otro que nos sale al paso, la condición por la que se puede hablar de tiempo, de mundo y de existencia como relación con otros y para otros.
Regularidad en el uso del artículo español ante un grupo nominal con modificador adjetival. Algunas reflexiones desde la perspectiva del polaco
Authors: Pawlik Janusz
Published: August 2023

En el presente artículo, pretendemos demostrar cómo algunos adjetivos y construcciones adjetivales imponen al grupo nominal (GN) una única lectura referencial de forma (casi) automática. El método aplicado es relativamente sencillo y consiste en un análisis estadístico de los textos ofrecidos por el CORPES XXI (fecha de consulta: marzo-mayo 2022). Hemos calculado la frecuencia relativa de las fórmulas (ADJ)+N+(ADJ) que generan regularmente grupos definidos, indefinidos y carentes de referencia explícita con respecto a la base de todas las ocurrencias observadas de dichas fórmulas. Hemos incluido en cada caso la frecuencia absoluta del grupo nominal analizado. La distribución de la referencia nominal en los contextos reseñados no tiene que ser la misma en otras lenguas con artículos. De modo que los resultados del estudio pueden ayudar a los alumnos polacos de ELE en el correcto uso del artículo.

Гуманизм юридической ответственности
Authors: Маказиева З.Д
Published: August 2023

Учитывая, что юридическая ответственность является сложным общественным феноменом, которая может наступить при нарушении правовых (законных) предписаний, и проявиться в форме применения к правонарушителю мер государственного принуждения. Четко сформулированная нормативная регламентация ее проведения нужна чтобы максимально обеспечить как защиту прав и свобод человека, так и их законные интересы, необходимо трактовать понятие «принцип гуманизма юридической ответственности» через более общую категорию «принцип гуманизма права», поскольку гуманизм права в большей степени предопределяет собой содержание гуманизма юридической ответственности, а последний, в свою очередь, выступает выражением гуманизма права.
