Authors: Grossard Charline , Descamps Mélanie , Cadoni Sara , Pellerin Hugues , Vonthron François , Xavier Jean , Falissard Bruno , Cohen David
Published: January 2025

BACKGROUND

Specific Learning Disorder (SLD) of reading skills impacts approximately 7% of children. Speech and reading therapy is currently the gold-standard intervention for improving children’s reading abilities. However, intensive interventions are difficult to implement. Recently, numerous studies have investigated the interest of game-based and home-based training approaches to enhance children's motivation and facilitate intensive learning activities in home settings. The serious game Poppins Clinical integrates rhythm and specific written language exercises to improve reading skills in children with SLD.

OBJECTIVE

The objective is to assess the non-inferiority of Poppins Clinical combined with a reading specialist session once every 2 weeks versus a reading specialist session every week, on the reading skills of children with SLD.

METHODS

We will use a non-inferiority paradigm to assess the clinical impact of both interventions in terms of reading accuracy, reading speed, and reading comprehension. We will also investigate the evolution of phonological and visuo-attentional skills. Moreover, we will explore the impact of the protocol on parental stress and children's perception of their difficulties. Finally, we will also look at the cost related to medical care impact of introducing the serious game Poppins Clinical on reading therapy.

RESULTS

Patient recruitment is expected to start in December 2024 and study completion by the end of august 2025.

CONCLUSIONS

This study should allow us to assess the interest of using the serious game Poppins Clinical in addition to reading therapy to improve reading abilities in children with SLD.

CLINICALTRIAL

The trial has been registered on the ClinicalTrials registry under the number NCT06592911.

Authors: Pati Sanghamitra , Kanungo Srikanta , Dash Anwesha , Kerketta Sushmita , Menon Jaideep , Mallick Geetanjali
Published: January 2025

BACKGROUND

Snakebite envenoming is an important yet neglected public health problem that predominantly affects rural populations living in tropical countries. Globally, an estimated 5.4 million people have snakebites, leading to approximately 81,410–137,880 deaths annually, indicating digital health interventions may be novel solutions to enhance snakebite management and reduce mortality.

OBJECTIVE

The objective of this scoping review was to find, analyze, and synthesize evidence about existing digital health interventions, particularly mobile health applications, for the management of snakebites in various geographical regions.

METHODS

A systematic search was performed on PubMed, Google Scholar, and Research Gate following the PRISMA 2024 guidelines. We further searched on Google Search Engine and Google Play Store. The review used mobile apps that offered structured guidance for snakebite management and was published in English. Data were extracted by paying attention to application features, functions, and user experiences.

RESULTS

Our search identified 19 studies that evaluated 16 mobile health applications spanning five countries (India, the United Kingdom, the United States, South Africa, and Sri Lanka). Of the 16 applications examined, the vast majority provided free access (15/16), with 10 of the 16 being Android-based and 6 supporting both Android and iOS platforms. The phone app featured snake species identification, first aid protocols, mapping anti-venom stock, and emergency contact information, including multilingual support. Patient user feedback also suggested a positive impact in terms of applications delivering important information and connecting patients to medical support.

CONCLUSIONS

Digital health interventions, especially mobile applications, are promising for overcoming snakebite management challenges through timely access to information, localizing emergency care, and enhancing health service delivery. However, challenges, like accessibility in remote areas, reliability, and the need for continual updating, must be overcome. This will include integrating artificial intelligence to facilitate the collaborative sharing of available data and inform policy and programs for the greatest impact in achieving the 2030 Global Snakebite Initiative target of reducing snakebite mortality.

Entre enfermar, sanar de mal echado (ak’bil chamel) y el exterminio de sus agentes
Authors: Page Pliego Jaime Tomás
Published: January 2025

Este texto trata sobre cómo entre los tsotsiles de Chamula y Chenalhó, así como los tseltales de Oxchuc —todos municipios de Chiapas, México—, se concebían y enfrentaban los riesgos y causas que llevaban a las personas a convertirse en objeto de ak’bil chamel o ak’chamel (mal echado) a finales de la década de 1990 y durante la primera del milenio. Se analizan, por un lado, las estrategias de que se valían los j-ak’chameletik (quienes hacen daño) y, por otro, las acciones llevadas a cabo por los agentes capaces de diagnosticar y ayudar a eliminar el ak’bil chamel; estos eran los j-iloletik (en tsotsil) y ch’abajeletik (en tseltal) (quienes pueden ver, escuchar y sentir la sangre). Se examinan, además, los secretos que comúnmente debía conocer la gente para eludir, neutralizar y exterminar a los j-ak’chameletik.

Authors: Rusida Desy Khoirur , Yasin Achmad , Mustofa Imron
Published: January 2025

Waqf has great potential to strengthen society through the distribution in an Islamic economy and the productive use of resources. Waqf is an instrument in the Islamic economy which has a significant role in the social and economic development of the people. Waqf is a gift of assets that cannot be sold, inherited or transferred ownership, which are used for the good and welfare of the community. Pierre Bourdieu is a French sociologist known for his contributions to social and cultural theory. His thinking has been very influential in various fields, including sociology, anthropology, and cultural studies. Several key concepts developed by Bourdieu include habitus, social, cultural and economic capital, and arena (field). This research analyzes the interaction between economic capital and social capital in waqf management. This research uses a qualitative methodology with a case study approach in several law enforcement agencies in Indonesia. Data collection used interviews conducted with great consideration, data analysis was carried out by applying Bourdieu's economic and social theory to identify individual behavior for each modality in Bourdieu's time management. The results of the analysis of Economic Capital and Social Capital in Waqf Management using Pierre Bourdieu's approach can include several important findings and contributions. This analysis provides a more comprehensive understanding of the complexity of waqf management, by considering the interaction between economic capital and social capital. This makes it possible to look beyond just economic or social aspects. Using Pierre Bourdieu's approach, these results illustrate the application of social theory in the context of waqf management. This shows that social theories can provide a deep understanding of the structural dynamics and interactions in Muslim societies. This conclusion has practical implications for waqf management, by providing insight into how economic and social capital influences waqf management practices. This can help waqf managers and policy makers to design more effective strategies. This analysis also contributes to the literature on waqf management, by providing a new and comprehensive perspective, these results can help in empowering communities to optimize the benefits of their waqf, as well as strengthening shared prosperity.

Published: January 2025

This paper examines financial preparedness for retirement in the People’s Republic of China (PRC), India, Japan, the Republic of Korea, and the United States, and highlights policy implications.
The authors find that people near retirement in the United States (US) have the most wealth, while those in the People’s Republic of China (PRC), India, and the Republic of Korea show higher financial self-reliance. Japan leads in consumption-based preparedness, with people expected to maintain their pre-retirement consumption. Key determinants of preparedness include education and risky asset holdings, suggesting that policies promoting financial literacy and market development could significantly improve older people’s financial independence.
External field-induced squeezing in a four-level atom inside a cavity system
Authors: Khalil Eied , Abd-Rabbou Mahmoud , Alotaibi Hammad , Althobaiti Raed
Published: January 2025

This paper delves into the influence of an external classical field on the
statistical and dynamical properties of a four-level atom interacting with a
cavity field. Leveraging mathematical transformations applied to the
external classical field, the system?s wave function was derived.
Subsequently, the impact of this external field and a detuning parameter on
atomic inversion, Shannon-entropy, the Q-function, and relative coherence is
explored. The analysis encompassed three distinct initial states for the
atomic system. The results unveiled that the specific type of classical
field employed acts as a control parameter, inducing squeezing within the
system, as demonstrably evidenced by the Q-function analysis. Conversely,
the influence of the detuning parameter exhibited dependence on the initial
state of the atomic system. However, in broader terms, it appears to be
responsible for driving the system towards chaotic behavior.

Real-life uses are more frequently confronted with huge quantities of data,
particularly in the field of uncertain data. We present a new approach
based on nano simply ?*open set. This new approach is a generalization of
Pawlak?s rough sets. The idea of separation axioms was introduced in this
method, which was used to examine essential properties and preservation
theorems. The relationships that exist between preservation and fundamental
attributes theories was also explored. Developing and discussing their
features has also been done by us. In the study, an application was used
illustrate the relationship between the nano simply ?*open set was
illustrated. This concept was explored utilizing the coarse set model,
thereby acquiring new levels of precision. Furthermore, an exact suggestion
was evaluated, which competitively rivals those of the Yao and Pawlak
methodologies. To derive the outcomes, MATLsoftware has been employed.
Analytical and numerical techniques for solving the Belousov-Zhabotinskii diffusion model: A chemical application
Authors: Ali Khalid , Mohamed Mohamed , Shaalan Mahamed
Published: January 2025

The primary focus of this paper is on finding an analytical solution for the
Belousov-Zhabotinskii system. The Belousov-Zhabotinskii reaction is a
chemical reaction that exhibits oscillating behavior in the concentrations
of its reactants and products. The reaction is named after Boris Belousov
and Anatol Zhabotinsky, who discovered it in the 1950. The
Belousov-Zhabotinskii reaction was first described by a system of equations
in 1983 [1]. It serves as a model for numerous, more complex biological and
biochemical processes. In this work, we present the soliton solution for the
Belousov-Zhabotinskii system using the (G?/G)-expansion technique. We also
study the solutions numerically using the cubic B-spline method. Finally,
2-D and 3-D graphs are used to visualize the obtained soliton solutions.

Published: January 2025

Considerando que políticas públicas podem ser consideradas como tudo o que um governo faz ou deixa de fazer, com todos os impactos de suas ações e de suas omissões, o âmbito educacional passa a ser constantemente debatido, na busca de melhoria constante para o alunado. Uma questão, contudo, que é fundamental para a sua delimitação é a atenção e respeito ao ciclo de políticas públicas, para fins de identificação, inclusive, de ajustes que precisem ser realizados durante a sua execução. O estudo sobre este polêmico programa justifica-se porque, apesar de revogado no âmbito federal, as escolas militarizadas continuam em atividade nas esferas estaduais e municipais. Dentro desse contexto, objetiva-se verificar o desenvolvimento e a execução da política pública do Programa Nacional das Escolas Cívico-Militares – PECIM. Para tanto, proceder-se-á uma pesquisa de abordagem qualitativa, através de levantamento bibliográfico e análise documental. Desse modo, observa-se que, apesar de não ter existido análise técnica, no que tange à tomada de decisão de implementação do programa, em sua execução fora realizado planejamento e avaliação, o que permite concluir que foram necessárias e úteis para os ajustes que foram implementados sucessivamente.

Työterveysepidemiologia on työhön liittyvien terveysriskien hallintaa tukevaa tutkimusta. Työhön liittyvät sairaudet (work-related diseases) muodostavat yhteisen alueen työ- ja kansanterveysepidemiologian välille. Työterveysepidemiologia on luonnontieteellisesti painottunut epidemiologian osa-alue, jossa työhygieeninen asiantuntemus on kemiallisia ja fysikaalisia riskitekijöitä tutkittaessa välttämätöntä.
Kehittyvien maiden työterveysepidemiologia poikkeaa painoalueiltaan ja tutkimusmenetelmiltään teollisuusmaiden työterveysepidemiologiasta.
Ympäristöongelmien ratkaiseminen - tutkimusta vai toimintaa
Authors: Tuomisto Jouko
Published: January 2025

Ympäristön kemikaalien terveysriskien hallinta pohjautuu kahteen hyvin erilaiseen lähestymistapaan. Osalle kemikaaleista, kuten tavallisille ilmansaasteille, annetaan epidemiologiseen tutkimustietoon pohjautuvat ohjearvot. Näiden turvallisuusmarginaalit saattavat olla hyvin pienet, terveysvaikutuksia aiheuttavat pitoisuudet voivat olla vain 1–5-kertaiset ohjearvoihin verrattuna.
Osalle kemikaaleista, kuten torjunta-ainejäämille tai talousveden epäpuhtauksille, asetetaan raja-arvot toksikologiseen tietoon perustuen ja käytetään suuria turvamarginaaleja. Mikäli näin hallinnoitujen aineiden riskinarvioinnissa ei ole tapahtunut usean kertaluokan erehdyksiä, ei niistä aiheutuvia terveysvaikutuksia ole mahdollista saada esille epidemiologisilla menetelmillä. Siksi suurin hyöty epidemiologisista menetelmistä ympäristöterveydenhuollossa on odotettavissa tavanomaisten massasaasteiden pikemmin kuin jo tiukkaan kontrolloitujen kemikaalien terveysvaikutusten tutkimuksessa.
Aivan erityinen tutkimuskenttä on tällä hetkellä Itä-Euroopan maiden ympäristö, jossa saastepitoisuudet ovat yhtä suuria tai suurempia kuin läntisissä teollisuusmaissa 1950-luvulla.

Artikkelissa tarkastellaan terveydentilan ja terveyspalvelujen tarpeenmukaisen käytön jakaantumista tuloluokittain Suomessa Gini-kertoimeen perustuvilla eriarvoisuusmitoilla. Tutkimusaineistona oli Kansaneläkelaitoksen yhteistyössä Idäntohallituksen kanssa vuonna 1987 tekemän terveysturvan väestötutkimuksen aineisto, josta analyyseihin otettiin 15 vuotta työtä tehneet henkilöt (N = 12184).
Erityisesti pitkäaikaissairastavuus ja huonoksi koettu terveydentila olivat yleisempiä pienituloisilla kuin suurituloisilla henkilöillä. Sen sijaan tilapäistä terveydentilan huononemista kuvaavat sairauspäivät olivat jakaantuneet muita sairastavuusindikaattoreita tasaisemmin tuloluokittain. Terveyspalvelujen kokonaiskäyttö oli tuloluokittain jakaantunut palvelujen tarpeen mukaisesti. Selvimmin suurituloisille oli kohdentunut yksityislääkärintoiminta, yksityinen tutkimus ja hoito, työterveyshuollon lääkärikäynnit, erikoislääkärikäynnit ja fysikaalinen hoito. Pienituloiset käyttivät enemmän sairaaloiden vuodeosastopalveluja.

Maamme psykiatrinen terveydenhuolto on monien muutosten kohteena. Vaikka Suomessa onkin psykiatristen epidemiologisten tutkimusten ansiosta saatu paljon tietoa psyykkisten häiriöiden esiintyvyydestä, tarvitaan edelleen tietoa erilaisten hoitomuotojen, -ohjelmien ja -järjestelmien vaikuttavuudesta ja tehokkuudesta. Tätä työtä edellyttää psykiatrinen terveydenhuoltotutkimus. Terveydenhuoltotutkimuksella tarkoitetaan maan terveydenhuoltojärjestelmän rakenteiden, toiminnan ja laadun tuloksellisuuden tutkimusta. Terveydenhuoltotutkimus on käsitteenä uusi ja sitä on tehty vasta parin vuosikymmenen ajan. Psykiatrian ala asettaa tälle tutkimukselle monia erityisvaatimuksia. Käsitteet "mielenterveys", "mielenterveyden häiriö" ja "psykiatrisen hoidon tarve" vaikuttavat terveydenhuoltotutkimuksen soveltamiseen psykiatriseen terveydenhuoltoon. Tärkeitä psykiatrisen terveydenhuoltotutkimuksen kohteita Suomessa ovat perusterveydenhuollon mielenterveystyön tutkimus, psykiatrisen aluevastuuyksikön rakenteen ja toiminnan tutkimus, psykiatristen pitkäaikaispotilaiden kuntoutuksen tutkimus, psykiatristen hoitomallien arviointi ja arviointimenetelmien kehittäminen, pakon käytön psykiatriassa ja psykiatrisen hoidon etiikka sekä geropsykiatrinen terveydenhuoltotutkimus.

This study presents the phase control and polarization of electromagnetic waves emitted in quasiperiodic crystals such as Fibonacci, T-M, DP, and RS and the periodic structure of a photonic crystal consisting of fullerene and tellurium nanoscales in near-infrared -visible wavelengths. By examining the arrangement of layers in quasi-periodic crystals, which, like periodic structures, possess band gaps that impede the transmission of electromagnetic waves, we can determine the specific region where the photonic band gap (PBG) is formed for both transverse electric (TE) and transverse magnetic (TM) polarization waves. Subsequently, after examining the transmitted light that passed through our structure, we have identified the band gap of different structures. Also, we have plotted the phase changes in the center and edges of the band gap. After taking into account the magnitude of the electric field and the phase difference, it becomes evident that when elliptically polarized light is transmitted, a tilt angle is seen corresponding to the angle of polarization. The paper used the renowned transfer matrix approach. According to our research, the suggested design enables the creation of very condensed phase controllers, such as phase retarders and polarizers.

Over the past two decades, one of the most common reproductive problems has been infertility. Infertility is a disease of the reproductive system characterized by the inability to conceive after 12 months or more of regular unprotected sexual intercourse. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the reproductive rate has declined drastically, with male infertility now accounting for 36% of cases, often due to abnormalities in sperm production. Currently, infertility screening is still done manually, evaluating sperm samples using a microscope, which often produces inconsistent results. However, advances in computer technology have resulted in significant research aimed at improving the analysis of male sperm infertility. This study utilized deep learning technology to identify sperm using the YOLOv5 method. This study involved several stages with data collection using 1330 photos with 2 classes, namely sperm and non-sperm in video format. The second stage involved preprocessing the dataset, which included data extraction, cropping, resizing, and labeling the data for training. The final stage involved testing the trained model to detect and classify sperm based on morphology. The experimental results show that the proposed method is effective in accurately classifying sperm images and analyzing motion videos from recorded video data with a mAP result of 73.1%.Therefore, in the context of this study, the YOLOv5 model is considered efficient in detecting and classifying objects, both sperm and non-sperm

Las comunidades indígenas del Sureste de la Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta (SNSM) específicamente la comunidad de Atánquez, se ha visto afectada en los últimos años por inestabilidad y remoción en masa generando hasta perdidas de vidas, económicas, culturales, sociales, ambientales y áreas ocupadas. El objetivo de esta investigación se basa en analizar la estabilidad bajo condiciones estáticas y pseudoestáticas de las laderas del Cerro Bunkuamake, sector sureste de la Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta comunidad de Atánquez (Colombia). Se procedió inicialmente en una revisión documental en las diferentes bases de datos científicas; posteriormente se realizó una etapa observacional de campo complementada con un levantamientos cartográficos escala 1:25.000 permitiendo conocer e identificar aspectos geológicos, geomorfológicos, características generales propuesta por la metodología del Servicio Geológico Colombiano (SGC), toma de cuatro (4) muestras (M1, M2, M3 y M4) de suelo para análisis fisicomecánicos (granulométrico, humedad, peso específico y límites de Atterberg) y pruebas de consolidación para medir la reducción gradual del volumen de suelo por compresión. El análisis de estabilidad estático en condiciones secas el factor de seguridad presentó valores de 1.98 a 2.05 y probabilidad de falla de 0.02% a 0.06% para ladera de cultivos y; ladera de carretera factor de seguridad de 4.24 a 4.41 y probabilidad de falla casi nulas de 0%. Para las dos laderas las condiciones de estabilidad en estado seco son buenas presentando factor de seguridad mayor a 1 y probabilidad de falla inferior a 0.06%, indicando que la presencia de factores detonantes como precipitación y sismicidad generaría procesos de inestabilidad que afecten la estabilidad.

En este estudio se realiza una valoración de los impactos sociales de una planta de producción de policloruro de vinilo o PVC por suspensión usando una metodología híbrida que combina el análisis de ciclo de vida social y la teoría del cambio, considerando dos ubicaciones (Colombia y Bélgica). La metodología se basó en las guías UNEP/SETAC en la cual se utilizó información proveniente de informes corporativos y sectoriales complementada con información de bases de datos de organizaciones gubernamentales y no gubernamentales nacionales e internacionales. La teoría del cambio sirvió como base para seleccionar los indicadores. Además, se realizó un análisis de sensibilidad para observar cómo se ve afectado el desempeño del proceso cuando se varían los puntos de referencia de desempeño (PRD) y la unidad funcional. El análisis reveló una puntuación de desempeño social más alta para la planta localizada en Bélgica, sin embargo, ambas locaciones presentaron un desempeño positivo. Los indicadores estudiados mostraron que las plantas presentan un desempeño por encima de la conformidad (por arriba de 0,5) con respecto a los trabajadores, en parte por la regulación actual. Sin embargo, aspectos asociados a las comunidades y a la sociedad presentan un desempeño regular por impactos asociados al uso de los recursos naturales. Por otro lado, se realizó un análisis de sensibilidad variando los puntos de referencia de desempeño (PRD) y la unidad funcional de 418.000 t/año a 500.000 t/año. El primer análisis indicó que cuando se compara el desempeño del proceso a metas basadas en objetivos de desarrollo sostenible (ODS), el desempeño del proceso (para la planta colombiana) disminuye un 24%, pero se mantiene cerca de la conformidad (0,44). Los indicadores para las comunidades locales son los más afectados con una disminución hasta un 60%. Adicionalmente, por último, un aumento del flujo de proceso (unidad funcional) beneficia el desempeño social del proceso debido a un aumento de la fuerza laboral de la planta.
