Published: June 2024

Background: Eating disorders and psychotic disorders represent two of the most serious psychiatric conditions. Emerging lines of evidence from genetic and epidemiological studies suggest that these disorders may commonly co-occur. This systematic review investigated the association between these disorders across community and clinical populations.Method: A systematic review was preregistered (CRD42021231771) and conducted according to PRISMA guidelines. Web of Science, PsycINFO and Medline were searched for articles on the association and comorbidity between psychosis and eating disorders up to the 26th February 2024. Meta-analysis was conducted using a random effects model for studies reporting comorbidity of eating disorders and psychotic disorders based on clinical diagnosis or interview measures. A narrative synthesis was conducted for all other studies and grouped by sample (general population, eating disorders or psychotic disorders).Results: In total 43 studies met inclusion criteria for the systematic review and 18 were included in the meta-analysis. Findings suggest substantial comorbidity between eating disorders and psychotic disorders, with a pooled comorbidity prevalence of 8% (CI: 4, 14) based on clinical diagnosis or interview measures. Studies using self-report questionnaires also highlight the association between eating disorders and psychosis across clinical and community populations. Data from prospective studies in community population suggest that psychotic symptoms can precede eating pathology. Conclusions: Eating disorders and psychotic disorders frequently co-occur. Further research should investigate the temporal order of symptom development and consider the need for novel interventions targeted at overlapping psychotic and eating disorder symptoms and associated phenomena.

Authors: Cisneros Martínez Marco , Garcés Venegas Adriana
Published: June 2024

El microcrédito constituye un instrumento que mitiga la pobreza e impulsa el desarrollo económico y social de familias de escasos recursos, siempre y cuando, se mejore el desempeño de ciertos procesos administrativos y operacionales. En Ecuador, este servicio con enfoque de responsabilidad social ha sido manejado por Organizaciones no gubernamentales (ONG’s) que despliegan su accionar a través de los bancos comunales en zonas rurales y periurbanas del país. El trabajo busca describir los perfiles económicos y personales de los socios de estos bancos en el cantón Cevallos. Para lo cual, se estudió siete bancos comunales abanderados por la Pastoral Social Cáritas y mediante la aplicación de encuestas a 48 socios, se realizó el análisis descriptivo estadístico; en el cual, se determina que la banca comunal es imprescindible para el impulso económico de los socios; puesto que, permite atenuar necesidades, como: vivienda, educación, salud y alimentación. Como un aspecto relevante del estudio, se indica que los datos proporcionados son de una solo vía; es decir, que se obtuvieron exclusivamente de socios de los bancos comunales. Por consiguiente, el estudio se convierte en un instrumento que permite considerar indicadores de desempeño que ayuden a controlar la deserción y abandono de los socios.

Published: June 2024

Knowledge of human embryonic development is essential to improve our understanding of human fetal anatomy and for better understanding the etiology of congenital malformations. Currently, the structures of the posterior cranial fossa and the brain stem are of great interest to researchers, because of a large number of nuclei are located in the pons area, which play an important role in ensuring vital functions. The aim of the scientific work is to establish the morphological features of the pons of human fetuses at 14-15 weeks of gestation, the size and area of the nuclei of cranial nerves and neurons which are located in the area of the pons. Anatomical and histological research was carried out on 6 human fetuses aged 14-15 weeks of gestation. The cadaver material for research was obtained as a result of late abortions which were conducted according to medical indications in Vinnytsia maternity hospitals. Preparations were fixed in a 10 % solution of neutral formalin, stained with hematoxylin-eosin, toluidine blue modified by Nissl. Computer histometry (Toup View) was used for morphometric research. Statistical digital data were processed on a personal computer using Microsoft Excel 2016 and “Statistica 6.1” software. We established that in human fetuses at 14-15 weeks of intrauterine development, the nuclei of the trigeminal, abductor and vestibulocochlear nerves were detected. The nucleus of the facial nerve on 14-15 weeks of gestation is represented by single polygonal nerve cells with eosinophilic cytoplasm. The nucleus of the abductor nerve had the largest area, the cochlear nucleus of the vestibulocochlear nerve had the smallest area. The largest area of neurons was in the nuclei of the VIII pair of cranial nerve, the smallest – in the nucleus of the abductor and facial nerves. At 14-15 weeks of intrauterine development of human fetuses, the area of the cell nucleus could be determined only in the nuclei of the vestibulocochlear nerve, while the cell nuclei of the trigeminal, facial, and abductor nerves were represented by nerve cells of a spherical shape with a nucleus in which a basophilic nucleolus and a homogeneous eosinophilic cytoplasm were noted. Thus, in human fetuses of 14-15 weeks of intrauterine development, differences in the sizes and areas of the nuclei of cranial nerves and neurons that form nuclei in the pons area were found.

Published: June 2024

The occurrence of dental fluorosis is facilitated by a violation of enamel mineralization caused by fluorides, which enter the human body in excess during its development and formation and have a toxic effect on enamel blasts. However, the molecular mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of fluorosis are not fully understood. Enamel formation is a complex process involving cell proliferation and differentiation through epithelial-mesenchymal sequential secretion of matrix proteins, tissue-specific transport of ions including calcium and fluoride, and precipitation and alignment of enamel crystals through interactions between organic and inorganic molecules. Understanding the morphological features of enamel changes during fluoride intoxication of the human body in the endemic region allows us to clearly understand the need for a comprehensive solution to this medical and social problem. The aim was to study the morphological features of enamel in fluorosis in residents of the endemic region of Ukraine, in particular the Poltava region. The work examines different groups of teeth (both intact and affected by fluorosis) removed for orthodontic or clinical indications in men and women aged 17 to 40 years. Morphological signs were studied first on native, and later on histochemically stained sections. It was established that the violation of the structure of the enamel layer of the teeth in mild and severe fluorosis is characterized by both partial and complete violation of the movement of the enamel prisms with signs of destruction. Fragmentation and homogeneity throughout the entire thickness were found in some areas of the enamel. When evaluating histochemically stained sections of teeth affected by fluorosis, it was established that dystrophic changes in the enamel structure and accumulation of acidic glycosaminoglycans in the lesions are more characteristic of mild and moderate forms. Under the conditions of a severe form of fluorosis, complete destruction of the prisms, fragmentation of the lamella, homogenization of areas on the entire enamel layer, which is due to the uneven distribution of acidic mucopolysaccharides, have been established. Morphologically and histochemically dystrophic changes in the areas of the affected enamel are confirmed by uneven distribution and accumulation of acidic glycosaminoglycans. An assessment of the effect of fluoride intoxication on the state of tooth enamel was carried out, which will allow to expand the possibilities of preventive measures for related specialists, as well as to create and develop additional treatment methods that will contribute to the improvement of physical and aesthetic indicators of teeth. dental health.

Pectus carinatum, small pneumothorax, and Brugada patterns: First description and pathophysiological analysis
Authors: Bermejo Valdés Alejandro Jesús
Published: June 2024

Pectus carinatum is a chest wall deformity where the breastbone and ribs protrude outward, sometimes referred to as “pigeon chest” due to the bird-like appearance of the chest. This condition occurs in approximately 1 in 1000 children, more commonly affecting boys than girls. Pectus carinatum tends to worsen as a child grows, especially during puberty, with about 15% of the children experiencing associated conditions like scoliosis. We present a case report of a young patient with pectus carinatum who experienced a small right apex pneumothorax and exhibited Brugada patterns on electrocardiogram tracing. This is the first clinical case reporting Brugada pattern presentation in both a patient with pectus carinatum and a small pneumothorax. We have conducted a clinical anatomical and electrocardiographic analysis to explore a physiopathological explanation for these findings, considering that our patient has no history or clinical signs of Brugada Syndrome. To further elucidate the clinical, anatomical, and electrocardiographic findings observed in our patient, detailed analyses were conducted. These investigations focused on how the pectus carinatum may influence electrocardiographic patterns through structural alterations of the thoracic wall, potentially modifying the transmural electrical field across the myocardium. This analysis aimed to explore a physiopathological explanation for the Brugada patterns observed, considering our patient’s unique thoracic anatomy and the absence of clinical Brugada Syndrome. We conclude that: 1. Pectus carinatum may create a window that facilitates the less resistive measurement of cardiac action potentials; 2. Small pneumothoraces can induce modifications in the cardiac electrical signal detected by surface electrodes, and pectus carinatum could unmask these modifications; and 3. Surface electrodes may measure subepicardial potentials that include and are modified by adjacent pericardial tissues, potentially resulting in alterations in transmural potential differences, thus producing fictitious Brugada patterns. Similarly, there is a possibility that the right ventricular outflow tract may be included within the subendocardial potentials.

WHEN WOMEN HELD THE DRAGON'S TONGUE
Authors: Rebel Hermann
Published: June 2024

“Peasants tell tales,” one prominent cultural historian tells us (Robert Darnton). Scholars must then determine and analyze what it is they are saying and whether or not to incorporate such tellings into their histories and ethnographies. Challenging the dominant culturalist approach associated with Clifford Geertz and Marshall Sahlins among others, this book presents a critical rethinking of the philosophical anthropologies found in specific histories and ethnographies and thereby bridges the current gap between approaches to studies of peasant society and popular culture. In challenging the methodology and theoretical frameworks currently used by social scientists interested in aspects of popular culture, the author suggests a common discursive ground can be found in an historical anthropology that recognizes how myths, fairytales and histories speak to a universal need for imagining oneself in different timescapes and for linking one’s local world with a “known” larger world.
POLITICS OF INNOCENCE
Authors: Turner Simon
Published: June 2024

Based on thorough ethnographic fieldwork in a refugee camp in Tanzania this book provides a rich account of the benevolent “disciplining mechanisms” of humanitarian agencies, led by the UNHCR, and of the situated, dynamic, indeterminate, and fluid nature of identity (re)construction in the camp. While the refugees are expected to behave as innocent, helpless victims, the question of victimhood among Burundian Hutu is increasingly challenged, following the 1993 massacres in Burundi and the Rwandan genocide. The book explores how different groups within the camp apply different strategies to cope with these issues and how the question of innocence and victimhood is itself imbued with ambiguity, as young men struggle to recuperate their masculinity and their political subjectivity.
FRIENDLY ENEMIES
Authors: Berger Stefan , LaPorte Norman
Published: June 2024

During the Cold War, Britain had an astonishing number of contacts and connections with one of the Soviet Bloc’s most hard-line regimes: the German Democratic Republic. The left wing of the British Labour Party and the Trade Unions often had closer ties with communist East Germany than the Communist Party of Great Britain (CPGB). There were strong connections between the East German and British churches, women’s movements, and peace movements; influential conservative politicians and the Communist leadership in the GDR had working relationships; and lucrative contracts existed between business leaders in Britain and their counterparts in East Germany. Based on their extensive knowledge of the documentary sources, the authors provide the first comprehensive study of Anglo-East German relations in this surprisingly under-researched field. They examine the complex motivations underlying different political groups’ engagement with the GDR, and offer new and interesting insights into British political culture during the Cold War.
THE HADRAMI DIASPORA
Authors: Manger Leif
Published: June 2024

The Hadramis of South Yemen and the emergence of their diasporic communities throughout the Indian Ocean region are an intriguing facet of the history of this region’s migratory patterns. In the early centuries of migration, the Yemeni, or Hadrami, traveler was both a trader and a religious missionary, making the migrant community both a “trade diaspora” and a “religious diaspora.” This tradition has continued as Hadramis around the world have been linked to networks of extremist, Islamic-inspired movements—Osama bin Laden, leader of Al Qaeda and descendant of a prominent Hadrami family, as the most infamous example. However, communities of Hadramis living outside Yemen are not homogenous. The author expertly elucidates the complexity of the diasporic process, showing how it contrasts with the conventional understanding of the Hadrami diaspora as an unchanging society with predefined cultural characteristics originating in the homeland. Exploring ethnic, social, and religious aspects, the author offers a deepened understanding of links between Yemen and Indian Ocean regions (including India, Southeast Asia, and the Horn of Africa) and the emerging international community of Muslims.

Authors: Rauf Abdur , Naeem Ahmad , Sardaraz Khan
Published: June 2024

This research article analyses Ayesha Baqir’s Beyond the Fields (2019) using Iris Young’s model of ‘Five Faces of Oppression’. Baqir’s novel highlights the oppressive ideology that forces women to be subservient to male hegemonic values, traditions, and honour. The novel is evaluated to demonstrate the ways through which men exert their powers over women. Young's model shows how women become oppressed and marginalized groups of society and exploited at the hands of cultural norms. This research article will be an effort to create awareness among Pakistani women to believe in themselves and to fight hard to get what is rightfully theirs. Moreover, it will also be an attempt to open doors for future researchers to analyze literary texts through which they can raise such issues of exploitation.

Some properties of a class of generalized Janowski-type $q$-starlike functions associated with Opoola $q$-differential operator and $q$-differential subordination
Authors: Lasode Ayotunde , Opoola Timothy
Published: June 2024

Without qualms, studies show that quantum calculus has received great attention in recent times. This can be attributed to its wide range of applications in many science areas. In this exploration, we study a new qdifferential operator that generalized many known differential operators. The new q-operator and the concept of subordination were afterwards, used to define a new subclass of analytic-univalent functions that invariably consists of several known and new generalizations of starlike functions. Consequently, some geometric properties of the new class were investigated. The properties include coefficient inequality, growth, distortion and covering properties. In fact, we solved some radii problems for the class and also established its subordinating factor sequence property. Indeed, varying some of the involving parameters in our results led to some existing results.

Teo-Ekologi: Analisis Perilaku Sedekah di Bak Sampah pada Masyarakat Cantel Baru Yogyakarta
Authors: Amin Muhammad , Sari Ramadhanita Mustika
Published: June 2024

Tulisan ini mengkaji perilaku sedekah di bak sampah pada Masyarakat Cantel Yogyakarta. Hal ini menarik dikaji karena perilaku ini berbeda dengan kebiasaan masyakat kontemporer. Masyarkat kontemporer dalam menyalurkan sedekah pada umumnya telah menggunakan lembaga sedekah dan bahkan menggunakan aplikasi sedekah. Dari permasalahan tersebut muncul beberapa pertanyaan dan menjadi tujuan penelitian ini. Tujuan penelitian tersebut: pertama, menelusuri lebih jauh apa alasan masyarakat Cantel Yogyakarta bersedekah di bak sampah. Kedua, bagaimana pandangan masyarakat Cantel terhadap bak sampah dan lingkungan hidup ? Ketiga, Bagaimana implementasi nilai ikhlas dan kepedulian terhadap lingkungan hidup dalam bersedekah bagi masyarakat Cantel Yogyakarta ? Studi ini merupakan penelitian lapangan. Teknik pengumpulan data dalam penelitian ini berupa observasi partisipan dan wawancara tak terstruktur. Teori yang digunakan untuk menganalisa permasalahan penelitian, yakni teori pertukaran perilaku, karya Peter Blau. Teori ini memiliki tiga unsur, yaitu ganjaran, pengorbanan dan keuntungan. Ketiga unsur tersebut saling mempengaruhi. Teori ini digunakan untuk menganalisa apa alasan masyarakat Cantel Yogyakarta bersedekah di bak sampah. Selain itu juga untuk mengkaji pandangan masyarakat Cantel terhadap bak sampah dan lingkungan hidup, serta implementasi nilai ikhlas dan kepedulian terhadap lingkungan hidup dalam bersedekah bagi masyarakat Cantel Yogyakarta. Temuan penelitian ini, yakni: pertama, masyarakat Cantel Kota Yogyakarta melakukan sedekah di bak sampah dengan tujuan ketepatan sasaran dalam penyaluran sedekah. Kedua, Pandangan masyarakat Cantel Kota Yogyakarta terhadap bak sampah yakni, bak sampah merupakan sumber mata pencarian pemulung dan petugas kebersihan. Selajutnya masyarakat menganggap penting lingkungan hidup, sehingga mereka terapkan perilaku membuang sampah di bak sampah dan juga mereka bersedekah di bak sampah. Ketiga, Nilai ikhlas yang dipraktekkan masyarakat mengambil filosofi seperti membuang sampah, tidak memikirkan siapa yang menerimanya, juga tidak mengharapkan balasan dari orang yang menerimanya dan tidak mengharapkan pujian dari penerima sedekah mereka.

Als wir das Ziel aus den Augen verloren, verdoppelten wir die Zahl der Beauftragten – oder etwa doch nicht? Zum strategischen Aktivismus der Ampelkoalition
Authors: Koß Michael
Published: June 2024

Michael Koß kann in dem sprunghaften Anstieg der Zahl der Bundesbeauftragten weder eine kohärente Strategie noch reinen Aktivismus erkennen. Unter bestimmten Bedingungen können Beauftragte erfolgreich sein; diese Bedingungen sind aber nicht bei allen neu geschaffenen Positionen erfüllt. Wichtig scheinen vor allem ein klares Profil des Amtes, eine gute Passung des Amtsinhabers und dessen politische Aufwertung durch zusätzliche Ämter oder Mandate.
Uncertainty management in rule based systems with applications to computer vision
Authors:   , Mogre Advait M.
Published: June 2024

This thesis introduces a unified approach to uncertainty management in rule based systems in terms of uncertainty modelling and propagation, context incorporation and conflict resolution. The application emphasized is that of Automatic Target Recognition (ATR) using a rule based approach. The first part of this thesis concerns the construction and implementation of a measure of certainty in a given proposition. This measure accepts objective evidence, in the form of feature information and subjective evidence or "expert opinion" for a given proposition: "Unknown (object, U) belongs to class 'A' given evidence x". The measure then combines the evidences, from both sources if available, to generate either a certainty value or a truth term (Chapter 4), depending on the model used to express confidence in the given proposition. This approach, using belief measures to express confidence in the association of a given class with the objective evidence, has been applied to sequences of images acquired by a forward looking infrared sensor (FLIR). The results show an improvement in the classification performance with respect to standard belief maintenance. The next portion of the research deals with the inclusion of contextual information. This involves constructing functions to combine contextual information and to integrate the resultant information into the confidence generation process. Results of simulations to study the effect of context on both numeric as well as linguistic confidences are presented. The effect of context is achieved by incorporating peripheral context rules that accept and quantify context information applicable to specific rules in the main rule base. The advantage of this approach is that the main rule base need not be modified each time additional context information has is acquired. Instead, the additional information is absorbed into the rule base by constructing additional context rules. The final aspect of this research concentrates on the problem of conflict resolution in combining evidence form different sources. First, the compensation technique used by Shafer, called "discounting" is discussed. Next, a measure of disparity within a group of evidence sources, for the same given proposition is presented. The measure of disparity enumerates the "differences of opinion" amongst the group, which is then used to generate a discount factor for that group. This technique is then successfully deployed to the ATR problem to improve classification. This approach is later extended to the case of disparity in linguistic truth qualification. Simulation results for this case are then presented. When appropriately utilized, each of these techniques introduces additional improvement in the performance of the decision making process for the ATR problem using a rule-based approach. However, they can be applied in a similar fashion to other problem domains as well.

Mechanism of oxygen reduction on platinum in netural saline and effects of interstitial fluid
Authors:   , Cooper Jeffrey Bruce
Published: June 2024

The mechanism of oxygen reduction on a platinized platinum electrode was studied in a buffered saline solution in the neutral pH region. The Tafel slope was 135 + 18 mv and the reaction orders 1.1 and 0.19 with respect to oxygen and hydrogen ion respectively. These criteria were interpreted as being consistent with a consecutive adsorption and one electron transfer rate controlling step as follows: O2 (solution)--> O2 (adsorbed) O2 (adsorbed) + e^- ---> O2^- The pH dependency is attributed to a shift in the potential of zero charge with pH in chloride solution. The factors affecting the performance of platinum activated carbon cathodes in hybrid biogalvanic fuel cells were also examined. It was found that by-products of aluminum and zinc anodes had no effect on the cathode output voltage. An artificial interstitial fluid either with or without bovine serum albumin shifted the voltage vs. current curve downwards by approximately 100 mv. These tests were performed under aseptic conditions for periods up to five days. The major cause of low in-vivo cathode voltages was attributed to mass transfer limiting conditions which were examined in-vitro in both buffered saline and artificial interstitial fluid. An automated load switching system for evaluating hybrid fuel cell characteristics is also described. The system utilizes a Linc-8 computer and Cal comp plotter to produce voltage vs. current curves from up to sixteen different anode - cathode pairs. The usefulness and limitations of the system are described.
