Orthopaeddontics in Cleft Treatment
Authors: Prinsloo Rolanda
Published: May 2024

Orthopaeddontics offers a comprehensive treatment paradigm tailored to paediatric patients aged 5 to 11 years with cleft anomalies, focussing on early correction of dento-alveolar and orthognathial deformities alongside structured psychological support. The intensive pre- surgical preparational treatment phase, conducted during this very active growth period, lays the foundation for subsequent surgical interventions, particularly secondary osteofusion, in children with the CLA and CLAP deformities. The primary objective is to achieve optimal gothic arch formation, ideal maxillary-mandibular occlusal relationship and attain balanced facial aesthetics while mitigating orthognathial deformities. Following surgery, orthopeaddontic maintenance continues into the pre-adolescent years, typically until the age of 12 years, ensuring sustained treatment efficacy before transitioning to standard orthodontic care. Central to this approach is a non-extraction treatment philosophy targeting both primary and permanent dentition, aimed at aligning teeth to achieve the most ideal arch or horse-shoe- shaped alveolus arch for all of the two (uCLA/uCLAP) or three arch segments (bCLA/bCLAP) within a balanced maxillary-mandibular occlusal relationship with an ideal facial balance. Various orthopaeddontic techniques are employed to address abnormal dimensional appearances, complimented by a psychologically sensitive approach to support paediatric patients and their families. During the orthopaeddontic treatment the treating expert needs to liaise with the parents to support the cleft child with a gentle, psychologically meaningful approach to warrant essential ultimate outcome with lifelong positive aesthetic appearance and functionality and to secure an easier acceptance of their odyssey as a person with a cleft deformity. A result of the utilization of this growth phase, related to the midfacial development and function, needs to be comparable with the expected development of a non-cleft child at a similar age. Ultimately, successful orthopeaddontic intervention during the critical growth phase should yield marked improvements in speech, facial aesthetic and a functional occlusion, potentially reducing the need for future orthodontic treatments and minimizing treatment duration.

Seed qualities including viability and germination significantly influence the quantity and the quality of harvest. Technological means to assess seed qualities and attributes of seed-derived food products are varied. This paper highlights the use of infrared hyperspectral imaging (NIR- HSI) in food quality control, authentication, safety, process monitoring, shelf-life prediction, ingredients analysis, allergens detection and food sorting and grading. It also shows a particular application of NIR-HSI for the monitoring of nutrient content of sprouts and germinated seeds for industrial processing of foods with high nutritional values. The paper further reviews the applications of NIR-HSI to predict seed viability and germination. The non-destructive, rapid, and high-throughput capability of NIR-HSI were demonstrated through research works combining the NIR-HSI technology with chemometrics tools to reach more than 90% prediction rate. These relatively high rates may depend on the storage conditions or the stringency of the artificial aging conditions applied to parts of the seeds. However, the NIR-HSI has also proven efficient using naturally aged seeds with the prediction rates up to 90% correct classification, demonstrating the high capability of the technology. In combination with advanced chemometrics tools, some components of emerging technologies such as traditional machine learning and deep learning models have been added to increase the efficiency of NIR_HSI. Overall, the research works reviewed in this paper and which cover several food crops and food products showed that NIR-HSI is set to reach new heights in monitoring seed viability for improved seed stock management, crop production and innovation in the food industry.

The first objective of this research is to investigate the effectiveness of sport massage and cold water immersion in the post-exercise fatigue recovery of the PPLP sprinter athletes. Second, to determine the effectiveness of sports massage and cold water immersion in reducing post-exercise stress levels of the PPLP sprinter athletes. This research used an experimental method with a pretest-posttest-control group design. The research population was PPLP Bogor 100m sprint athletes, totaling 30 athletes and they were divided into 3 treatment groups: Sport Massage, Cold Water Immersion, and Control. The sampling technique was random sampling with certain criteria. The three groups received an exercise simulation with a duration of 60 minutes divided into 10 minutes of warm up, 45 minutes of exercise, and 5 minutes of cooling down. Before and after the treatment, pretest and posttest were conducted including the level of fatigue recovery (pulse rate, RPE, FAS) and post exercise stress level (Daily Wellness Questionnaire). The normality test used Shapiro Wilks and the data homogeneity test referred to the Levene test. Testing the effectiveness used one way ANOVA for normally distributed data and for the data that was not normally distributed using the Kruskal Wallis test. The data was then processed by using the statistical program SPSS 22. The results show that (1) there are differences in the effectiveness of sport massage and cold water immersion towards the level of post-exercise fatigue of PPLP sprinters. There are differences in treatment effectiveness between the three groups (p < 0.05) for pulse and RPE variables. In the Tukey post hoc test it is found that there is a difference in effectiveness between sport massage and the control group (p < 0.05) and between cold water immersion and the control group (p < 0.05). However, between sports massage and cold water immersion there is no significant difference in recovering fatigue levels. (2) There is no difference in the effectiveness of sport massage and cold water immersion towards the level of post- exercise stress reduction of PPLP sprinters with a significance value (p > 0.05). Hence, in recovering post-exercise fatigue, sports massage or cold water immersion recovery techniques can be used according to the needs of athletes compared to passive rest.
Altered State Of Consciousness As A Narrative Tool İn Dennis Lehane’s Shutter Island
Authors:   Department of English Language and Literature Istanbul Aydin University Istanbul, Turkey, Salihi Kanar Othman Omer
Published: May 2024

This article delves into Dennis Lehane’s Shutter Island(2003) and its challenge to the conventional notion of a unified humanist self, proposing instead that the post-war self is inherently fragmented. It particularly scrutinizes this fragmentation through the experiences of a traumatized character in the novel, illustrating how severe wartime and post-war events disrupt and fracture individuals. Furthermore, it examines the role of storytelling and narration as essential tools for trauma survivors to navigate and reconcile the shattered aspects of their identities. Through storytelling, the protagonist Teddy discovers a means of survival by articulating his experiences and memories. The paper emphasizes how trauma directly leads to the fragmentation of the human psyche and explores how narrative serves as a medium for the protagonist to confront his trauma. Through Teddy’s narrative, the novel provides insights into the complexities of the post-war self, the lasting wounds of trauma, and the potential for storytelling to assist in coping with trauma, offering a deeper understanding of the fragmented self in the aftermath of war.

Authors: Wang Tian , Suboh Rosdeen , Alizadeh Farideh
Published: May 2024

When more than one source material is used for an adaptation, how do these texts work together coherently in the new production? This article applies the product tenet in the cultural transduction framework to multi-sourced film adaptations to analyze the coexistence of the classical Chinese novel Journey to the West and the iconic Japanese anime Doraemon in the Japanese animated film Doraemon: The Record of Nobita’s Parallel Visit to the West (1988). We find that to integrate these two works that take the lead in their respective cultural contexts, Japanese adapters enhance the cultural shareability by highlighting content universals, audience-created universals, and company-generated universals, and reduce the cultural discount by filling in the content lacuna, the capital lacuna, and the production lacuna.

Authors: Lungelo Julius
Published: May 2024

Purpose: The aim of the study was to examine potential risks and benefits associated with the genetic modification of crops for improved nutritional content in South Africa
Methodology: This study adopted a desk methodology. A desk study research design is commonly known as secondary data collection. This is basically collecting data from existing resources preferably because of its low cost advantage as compared to a field research. Our current study looked into already published studies and reports as the data was easily accessed through online journals and libraries.
Findings: The study revealed that the genetic modification of crops addresses global challenges related to malnutrition, food insecurity, and public health. By enhancing the levels of essential nutrients such as iron, zinc, vitamin A, and folate in crops, genetically modified biofortified varieties have the potential to improve the nutritional status and well-being of populations, particularly in resource-constrained settings. Moreover, the adoption of GM biofortified crops has been shown to increase agricultural productivity, reduce production costs, and enhance economic returns for farmers, contributing to rural development and poverty alleviation. However, the potential risks associated with the genetic modification of crops cannot be overlooked. Concerns about food safety, environmental impact, and socio-economic equity necessitate careful consideration and proactive risk management strategies.
Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: Risk Perception Theory & Social Construction of Technology may be used to anchor future studies on potential risks and benefits associated with the genetic modification of crops for improved nutritional content in South Africa. Engage stakeholders, including farmers, consumers, civil society organizations, and government agencies, in decision-making processes related to the development, regulation, and deployment of GM biofortified crops can foster transparency, trust, and inclusivity, leading to more socially acceptable and sustainable outcomes in practice. Develop science-based regulatory frameworks that balance the potential risks and benefits of GM biofortified crops, ensuring safety, environmental sustainability, and public health protection.

Purpose: The aim of the study was to analyze the impact of economic sanctions on diplomatic relations: a comparative analysis
Methodology: This study adopted a desk methodology. A desk study research design is commonly known as secondary data collection. This is basically collecting data from existing resources preferably because of its low cost advantage as compared to a field research. Our current study looked into already published studies and reports as the data was easily accessed through online journals and libraries.
Findings: Economic sanctions wielded by the United States impact diplomatic relations in multifaceted ways. While they can isolate adversaries economically, they often strain diplomatic ties, escalating tensions. Success hinges on factors like target country resilience and international support. Unilateral actions may undermine US diplomatic credibility. Diplomatic efforts, like negotiations and exemptions, are vital for mitigating consequences and fostering conflict resolution.
Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: Theory of economic coercion, theory of reciprocity and tit-for-tat & theory of economic interdependence may be used to anchor future studies on impact of economic sanctions on diplomatic relations: a comparative analysis. Diplomatic practitioners should prioritize sustained engagement and dialogue as essential tools for managing the diplomatic fallout of economic sanctions, leveraging both traditional and non-traditional diplomatic channels. Policymakers should adopt flexible and context-specific approaches to economic sanctions, recognizing that a one-size-fits-all approach may not effectively achieve diplomatic objectives.

Authors: Lin* I-Cheng , Wei Wan-Ling , Yao Chi-Yang , Luo Yan-Yan
Published: May 2024

This study examines the role of accounting conservatism in mitigating underinvestment due to internal cash flow volatility in Taiwan-listed and OTC companies from 2013 to 2022, comparing family and non-family firms. Utilizing regression analysis, we assess how accounting conservatism influences investment decisions under varying conditions of cash flow stability. Our findings reveal that accounting conservatism significantly alleviates underinvestment across all sampled firms, particularly in family firms where its impact becomes pronounced under high cash flow volatility conditions. In contrast, conservatism does not significantly affect investment decisions in stable cash flow scenarios. Additionally, the study finds that accounting conservatism can reduce capital costs under high cash flow volatility, thereby promoting investment. These insights provide a new understanding of the function of accounting conservatism across different firm types and offer practical guidance for financial decision-making.

Introduction: Apoptosis has provided solutions for effective anticancer treatments, and today one of the most interesting strategies is drug interventions that can mediate the death of cancer cells through the induction of apoptosis. Many plant compounds are known to have anti-tumor activity in this way. Compound Honey Syrup is used in Iranian traditional medicine and its cytotoxicity has been determined on melanoma cells. The purpose of this research was to investigate the anticancer effect of Compound Honey Syrup herbal product on gastric adenocarcinoma cells and the mechanism of this effect. Method: The lethal effect of Compound Honey Syrup on gastric adenocarcinoma (AGS) and fibroblastic (HgF) cells after 24 hours of incubation was investigated by MTT calorimetric method. Annexin FITC-V and PI staining method determined apoptotic cell death. The change in the activity of caspases 8 and 9 was also evaluated by enzymatic method. The base membrane of the model was used to evaluate the invasion ability of Compound Honey Syrup cancer cells. Results: Compound Honey Syrup had a strong and concentration-dependent killing effect on AGS cells and caused cell death mainly by inducing early apoptosis. The increased activity of caspases 8 and 9 was involved in this process. Compound Honey Syrup also reduced the ability of cancer cells to invade. Conclusion: By activating caspases 8 and 9, COMPOUND HONEY SYRUP led to the apoptotic death of human gastric cancer cells. In addition, COMPOUND HONEY SYRUP can be an effective factor for investigating the prevention or treatment of stomach cancer in humans by reducing the strength and invasion of cancer cells.

Published: May 2024

Coastal regions are among the most important places for urban development and industrial expansion. However, the system is active and it must be well examined before any infrastructure is planned, to avoid harm from natural processes like degradation, sedimentation, and sometimes sea-generated natural disasters. Numerical modelling of the coast to forecast the area's natural parameters is an important technique for assessing these systems. Coastal regions are of critical importance to most of the world's citizens with a significant bearing on economic activities. In the present study, a well-calibrated mathematical model of Vengurla, Maharashtra, has been developed using MIKE 21 flexible mesh software, with the latest prototype data and also carried out 2-D hydrodynamic studies for the proposed 500m breakwater and approach channel. The simulated model will be tangled with the sediment transport model to ascertain the likely pattern of siltation in the area. After studying the Hydrodynamic model, it was observed that in existing conditions, currents varied in the range 0-0.02 m/sec inside the Vengurla creek and 0-0.15 m/sec in the seawater and currents under the proposed condition varied in the range 0- 0.029 m/sec inside the Vengurla creek and 0-0.22 m/sec in the seawater. No severe circulation or eddies were observed near the beach area in the existing condition as well as in the proposed condition, hence no siltation have occurred in that area. From the sediment model, it was observed that there is not much siltation/erosion after the construction of the proposed breakwater and deepening of the approach channel.
Optimization of Returns from Land and Water Resources of a River Basin: A Case Study
Authors: Parhi Prabeer Kumar
Published: May 2024

As every area on the surface of earth is getting populated very rapidly, much water is required in domestic and industrial sectors. Accordingly, the water needs to be diverted from one sectors to the others in future. Due to this in irrigation sector, the water is needed to be diverted so as to have maximum return from the resources available in a river basin. Due to this in an agro-climatic condition, crops should be allocated optimally so that return from the crops are maximum and water consumption is minimum. In view of the above, in the present study, the return from the available crops has been maximized in the river basin while satisfying availability of land, availability of water (both surface as well as ground water), minimum as well as maximum crop area for the projected population of 2050AD. For this purpose, the Ramial Sub-basin of Brahmani Basin in Odisha State has been considered. For optimization of land and water resources of the basin the software LINDO (Language for Interactive Discrete Optimizer) is used. For the purpose of estimation CWR (Crop water requirement) the guidelines of FAO, 1998 has been considered. The model shows that the optimal cropping pattern uses 3186.95 MCM of water and gives a net profit of Rs 183489.2 lakhs. When compared with the existing cropping pattern, it uses 4033.21 MCM of water while giving Rs 114930 lakhs profit. Hence cropping pattern using optimization techniques is suggested to be used in every river basin.

Understanding past, present, and future changes in temperature and precipitation will help to adapt to climate change. Using the RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 scenarios, this study investigates how rainfall, maximum temperature, and minimum temperature have been impacted by climate change in the Seti Gandaki River, Nepal. The Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) was set up for this study with a calibration period from 2009 to 2015 and a validation period from 2015 to 2018, both with a 3-year warm-up period. Temperature and precipitation projections for the future were obtained from the Canadian Earth System Model Version 2 (CanESM2). Using the Statistical Downscaling Model (SDSM), large-scale atmospheric variables from the National Centre for Environmental Prediction/National Centre for Atmospheric Research reanalysis (NCEP/NCAR) datasets were downscaled for several emission scenarios. Two distinct scenarios, RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 of the CanESM2 model, were applied to observe the change in precipitation, maximum temperature, and minimum temperature for future periods (2022-2040, 2046-2064). In the RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 scenarios for the years 2022–2040, respectively, it was found that precipitation would drop by 3% and 1.07% annually, the maximum temperature would fall by 0.03% and increase by 0.11%, and the minimum temperature would rise by 0.37% and 0.44%. Under the RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 scenarios, respectively, for the years 2046–2064, precipitation would drop by 5.07% and 0.57%, the maximum temperature would increase by 0.08% and 0.21%, and the minimum temperature would also increase by 1.45% and 1.60%. Additionally, there has been a noticeable drop in flow.

Authors: Abdullah Nada Khalid
Published: May 2024

This study presents a semi-complement Co-Hopfian R-module (si-Cp Co-Hop. mod). The proposal is a monomorphic endomorphism of X with a si-comp image, which is a generalization of the Co-Hop. Mod. This article introduces some properties of the Cp Co-Hop, mod, and an investigation with examples. Furthermore, the current study deals with this class of mods and gives several fundamental properties related to this concept.

Cultura popular en los grafitos parietales pompeyanos: los grafitos eróticos y amatorios
Authors: Novillo López Miguel Ángel
Published: May 2024

Tras el paisaje marmóreo de los templos y de los edificios públicos de Roma existió una realidad caracterizada por un populacho llegado a la ciudad en busca de oportunidades. Sin embargo, los autores clásicos no fueron muy prolijos en descripciones sobre la vida cotidiana de estos individuos, salvo cuando pasaban del descontento a la violencia. Solo los aspectos más mezquinos y ruines de su conducta eran elementos recurrentes en la literatura satírica y la comedia. La información relativa a este colectivo nos ha llegado a través de los textos de lo que podríamos denominar la alta sociedad. Pero, ¿cómo eran y cómo pensaban estos individuos? La respuesta a esta pregunta se encuentra en esquivar las fuentes tradicionales y poner el acento en los grafitos que nos muestran un lado de la cultura popular diferente al de la élite y nos permiten repensar las relaciones sociales y la identidad romana.
Nombres griegos en territorio vascón, ¿reflejo de un grupo social? La onomástica en los grafitos sobre cerámica romana del territorio navarro (Hispania citerior)
Authors: Ozcáriz Gil Pablo
Published: May 2024

El creciente conjunto de grafitos sobre cerámica en el territorio central y occidental de los vascones está ofreciendo un interesante conjunto onomástico, con un alto número de cognomina de origen griego. Este artículo analiza ese grupo, lo compara con los nombres de origen latino y los de las inscripciones lapidarias, encontrando grandes diferencias en la composición social de ambos conjuntos epigráficos. Concluye que los grafitos sobre cerámica de mesa son una fuente histórica en la que los esclavos y libertos de época imperial están representados en mucha mayor proporción que en la epigrafía lapidaria.
En cuadrilla: los grafitos como fuente para el estudio del ámbito laboral en la producción anfórica de la Bética. Una nueva aproximación metodológica
Authors: Bermúdez Lorenzo Juan Manuel , Caballero Payá Daniel
Published: May 2024

El presente trabajo tiene como objetivo presentar la vinculación de datos de grafitos anfóricos con otras inscripciones de Dressel 20 encontradas en el Monte Testaccio de Roma mediante la utilización de los datos contenidos en la web de Roman Open Data, que permite la extracción de resultados obtenidos gracias al uso del lenguaje SPARQL. Este ejercicio posibilita la datación y la asignación de procedencia de producción de los grafitos allí ubicados. Con ello se pretende ofrecer un ejemplo de la metodología de trabajo que se puede llevar a cabo con esta herramienta a partir de la fuente que supone la epigrafía anfórica para el estudio de la historia social de la Antigua Roma.
La enseñanza de la alfabetización académica bilingüe: entre discurso y acción
Authors:   Universidad Nacional del Centro de la Provincia de Buenos Aires, CAÑEDO Claudia
Published: May 2024

Este trabajo explora la disparidad entre la circulación de discursos que sostienen la necesidad de profundizar saberes relacionados con la lectoescritura en lengua extranjera y materna, y la efectivización de políticas lingüísticas institucionales para las carreras de grado de una Facultad de Ciencias Exactas de la Universidad Nacional del Centro de la Provincia de Buenos Aires, Argentina. Se analiza en qué medida las representaciones sociales sobre alfabetización académica influyen en esta fragmentación. A partir de los datos aportados dentro del marco teórico-metodológico propuesto, se analizan los resultados y se elaboran las conclusiones.
