Published: September 2024

Ore assemblages in zones of low-sulfide mineralization of the Vologochan−Pyasinskiy intrusion of the Norilsk complex have multicomponent compositions involving Pd, Pd-Pt-(Rh, Ir), Au-Ag, REE, Y, Zr, Th, and U. They were deposited at late stages of crystallization of the ore-bearing zones in the presence of abundant volatile components, especially Cl, which accumulated late in the fluid-saturated medium. Evolutionary trends in the ore zones are documented in the compositions of olivine, orthopyroxene, clinopyroxene, plagioclase, spinel-group minerals, calcic amphiboles, apatite, micas, and pentlandite, among other species. We find (1) examples of monomineralic inclusions of clinopyroxene and plagioclase trapped in a globule of oxide melt, (2) evidence of the possible existence of a melt of anhydrite composition, and (3) aggregates of magnetite deposited along the periphery of grains of hercynite–spinel solid solution. A progressive buildup in Cl is reflected in patterns of compositional zonation in apatite, calcic amphibole, and annitic mica; levels of Cl consistently increase outward. Very efficient differentiation proceeded under oxidizing conditions in the mineralized zones of the Vologochan−Pyasinskiy intrusion. We provide complementary mineralogical data for sulfide-poor ore zones in the western flank of the Oktyabrsky deposit. Our inferences lead to a better understanding of ore genesis and evolution of low-sulfide ore-forming environments associated with the Siberian Traps.

The role of individual differences in emotional word recognition: Insights from a large-scale lexical decision study
Authors: Haro Juan , Hinojosa José Antonio , Ferré Pilar
Published: September 2024

This work presents a large lexical decision mega-study in Spanish, with 918 participants and 7500 words, focusing on emotional content and individual differences. The main objective was to investigate how emotional valence and arousal influence word recognition, controlling for a large number of confounding variables. In addition, as a unique contribution, the study examined the modulation of these effects by individual differences. Results indicated a significant effect of valence and arousal on lexical decision times, with an interaction between these variables. A linear effect of valence was observed, with slower recognition times for negative words and faster recognition times for positive words. In addition, arousal showed opposite effects in positive and negative words. Importantly, the effect of emotional variables was affected by personality traits (extroversion, conscientiousness and openness to experience), age and gender, challenging the 'one-size-fits-all' interpretation of emotional word processing. All data collected in the study is available to the research community: https://osf.io/cbtqy. This includes data from each participant (RTs, errors and individual differences scores), as well as values of concreteness (n = 1690), familiarity (n = 1693) and age of acquisition (n = 2171) of the words collected exclusively for this study. This is a useful resource for researchers interested not only in emotional word processing, but also in lexical processing in general and the influence of individual differences.

Published: September 2024

Applying the history of mathematics in learning is a tool (history as a tool) or strategy for building meaningful and value-laden learning. Nowadays, we often encounter mathematics learning that only emphasizes the use of formulas without paying attention to the beneficial aspects of the material being taught. Educators argue that students must achieve material targets according to predetermined bills. The result is that children study mathematics for years but are still "blind" to mathematics. Mathematics is the mother of world civilization, where the object of study is socio-cultural-historical. History is everything related to the origins or stories about the formation/creation of something. just as we know, mathematics is the result of human thought, which has a long history to arrive at the form of mathematics we often find today. The existence of this history of mathematics needs to be known and studied. Because through the history of mathematics, we can know and understand the nature and essence of mathematics. Apart from that, we can also find out the cause of a proposition or the benefits of a concept in mathematics. Through the history of mathematics, we can see that mathematics has made quite a contribution to other fields of science. Mathematics became the basis for the birth of a new science, such as astronomy.Keywords: History, Mathematics, Mathematical Scientist

The increase in crab meat exports increased the amount of crab shells discharged into the environment. Improper crab shell waste management can cause environmental concerns, public health issues, and increased oxygen requirements. This research aims to utilize crab shells from crab meat processing businesses in Indonesia into chitosan using demineralization, deproteination and deacetylation processes, with depolymerization as an additional process. Crab shell powder will be deproteinized with 3% NaOH and demineralized using an HCL solution. Furthermore, the deacetylation process was carried out for 8 hours at 140oC with 50% NaOH to produce chitosan. The resulting chitosan was then depolymerized using H2O2 at a concentration of 13%. The chitosan properties obtained by the deacetylation and depolymerization procedures were evaluated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR), and scanning electron microscope (SEM) tests. The results show that the depolymerization process exerts a beneficial effect on the chitosan product. The depolymerization treatment process involves the fragmentation of extended chitosan chains, which leads to the formation of smaller fragments and subsequently causes a decrease in the crystallinity, and particle size of the chitosan obtained. In additions, the results of this study indicate that the depolymerization process causes an increase in the degree of deacetylation of chitosan. The chitosan produced from the deacetylation and depolymerization processes produced chitosan with a degree of deacetylation of 81% and 91%, respectively. Increased the degree of deacetylation (DD, %) leads to reduced molecular weight, improved antimicrobial properties, higher water solubility, improved mechanical properties, and indicates better chitosan purity.

It is assumed that the flow in the porous region follows Darcy’s law. A generalized form of Reynolds's equation is derived on the basis of Stokes Theory of couple stress fluids in the presence of applied external magnetic field. The non-dimensional form of modified Reynolds's equation is solved and the closed form expressions are obtained for the fluid film pressure, load carrying capacity and squeeze film time. It is found that, the effect of applied magnetic field and couple stress lubricants are to increase the squeeze film pressure, load carrying capacity and to lengthen the squeezing time. Also, the effect of permeability parameter is to decrease the pressure, load-carrying capacity and squeeze-film time as compared to the non-porous case.

Published: September 2024

The transport of atherogenic molecules across a bifurcated artery under the stenotic conditions are examined in this present work simultaneously with the effects of magnetohydrodynamics and non-Newtonian flow of blood. The streaming blood is characterised as the power law rheological model that pass through a constricted vessel which acts as a porous medium considering that stenosis is developed from the deposition of fatty substance. This abnormal growth of plaque accumulation which deposited at lumen of the mother artery is modelled as an overlapping shaped stenosis and can be categorized as multiple stenoses. The incompressible, steady, laminar and viscous flow of blood is governed by the continuity, Navier-Stokes and convection-diffusion equations coupled with the non-Newtonian constitutive equation. The equations governing such fluid motion with appropriate boundary conditions are then numerically solved by a stabilized form of finite element approach known as Galerkin least-squares method. The computational domain and dependent variables are both being approximated by quadratic triangular element interpolation function of isoparametric formulation. Effects of different fluids characterisation and magnetic field has been validated and show a satisfactory agreement with findings from previous literatures, thus verify the applicability of the developed algorithms. The findings on the contour filled of velocity with streamlines pattern, contour field of shear stress distribution and contour filled of concentration are simulated with varying hemodynamic parameters of magnetic intensity and porosity constant. The simulated findings have revealed that shear-thinning fluid is vulnerable to an increasing extension of cholesterol accumulation, particularly in the downstream region of stenosis. This vulnerability is predominantly observed when the largest flow separating region and lowest luminal mass transfer coincide, especially when accompanied by the highest flow porosity and magnetic source application, as compared to its counterpart.

O último Censo do Diretório dos Grupos de Pesquisa 2023 publicizou dados sobre sexo e cor/raça dos membros vinculados aos grupos de pesquisa para todos os censos, desde 2000. Tal divulgação proporciona uma compreensão mais ampla da diversidade entre os membros desses grupos e como essa diversidade tem evoluído ao longo do tempo. Este breve texto apresenta a participação negra (pretos e pardos) na liderança dos grupos de pesquisa, no período 2000-2023, com recorte regional. Os dados demonstram que, apesar do aumento na liderança negra em todas as regiões, esses percentuais são inferiores à representação na população brasileira.

Introduction: A maxillary diastema (MD) is identified when the gap between the central incisors exceeds 0.5 mm. It poses an a and phonetic concern, often seen in mixed dentition and occasionally continuing into permanent dentition.

Aim: The aim was to conduct a retrospective study on the epidemiology of maxillary diastema among patients in northeastern Bulgaria.

Materials and methods: We analyzed 149 diagnostic plaster models of individuals with maxillary diastema with a mean age of 39.50±1.70 years. To ensure accuracy, we divided the patients into two age groups. People 35 years of age or younger were in the first age group. The second group consisted of those who were older than 35.

Results: Size of maxillary diastema according to sex: the derived 95% confidence interval shows that in the group of patients who met the selection criteria in the study, with 95% certainty, the width of the maxillary diastema was expected to be in the range of 1.389 mm to 1.754 mm. The median maxillary diastema width in males was 1.45±0.78 mm. The median maxillary diastema width in females was 1.41±0.24 mm.

Size of maxillary diastema according to age: data analysis indicates that the average size of a maxillary diastema was 1.43±0.24 mm among those under 35. In such individuals, the maxillary diastema width ranged from 1.07 mm to 2.20 mm, with 1.07 mm being the lowest recorded value. Maxillary diastema in those over 35 had a maximum measurement of 7.88 mm and a minimum of 1.05 mm.

The median width of maxillary diastema in the analyzed 149 models was 1.46±0.23 mm.

Conclusion: Patients’ smiles and dental as are subject to the strict a standards set by modern society. This causes one to examine small details like the distance between one’s central incisors and feel compelled to have them adjusted. Examining the maxillary diastema width in relation to age and sex facilitates a prompt selection of materials and fabrication methods, leading to outstanding functional and a results from the treatment that is performed.

Introduction: Mandibular prognathism (MP) patients present with aesthetic concerns and functional issues, including difficulties in mastication and pronunciation. Studies revealed that mandibular prognathism had definitive Mendelian inheritance patterns. This study aimed to ascertain distinct genetic markers associated with mandibular prognathism in individuals of Indian descent, focusing on exploring the prevalent genetic variations associated with certain genes. This study sought to identify the association of the following gene markers with mandibular prognathism: 1) Matrilin-1 (MATN1) (rs1065755), 2) Bone morphogenic protein 3 (BMP-3) (Tyr67Asn), 3) Homeobox protein hox-A2 (HOXA2) (Val327Ile), 4) Rho-GTPase activating protein (ARHGAP 21) (Gly1121Ser), 5) Myosin 1H (MYO1H) (rs10850110)

Materials and methods: Forty subjects (age group 18–30 years) were chosen based on their clinical examination, study model, and lateral cephalogram. Ten subjects had normal skeletal jaw-base relationships, and 30 had prognathic mandibles (skeletal class III jaw-base relationships). Two milliliters of blood were taken from each person. The genes, as mentioned above, associated with mandibular prognathism were studied.

To assess the association between genetic markers and mandibular prognathism, the following statistical tests were used: an unpaired t-test was used to compare the mean values of continuous variables between the normal and prognathic groups; a chi-square test was used to evaluate the association between genetic markers and the jaw-base relationship; and an odds ratio was used to assess the strength of association between genetic markers and the prognathic mandible. Statistical analyses were conducted using SPSS software.

Results: Out of five single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) selected in the study, namely rs10850110, rs1065755, rs111419738, rs143043350, and rs74764079, three SNPs—rs111419738, rs143043350, and rs74764079—did not show differences in the genotypes among the study and control samples. Thus, this indicates that these three SNPs may be related to mutations seen in MP in other populations but do not exhibit any association with the people covered in this study. The other two SNPs, rs10850110 and rs1065755, showed variant genotypes in control and study samples.

Conclusions: Our research found that rs10850110 and rs1065755 positively correlated with mandibular prognathism. Further studies are needed to see the association between these two restriction sites in MP subjects.

Authors: Durak Melike
Published: September 2024

Kuruçay Stream basin, located in the Edremit district in northwest Turkey, is a small, narrow and long basin with an area of 17.3 km2, extending in the N–S direction, located on the southern slopes of Mount Ida. The study was carried out to determine the soil erosion susceptibility and distribution of Kuruçay Stream basin, as well as to estimate the annual average amount of soil loss through the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) model using Geographical Information Systems (GIS). To apply the equation to the basin, data layers for rainfall erosivity (R), soil erodibility (K), slope length (L) and slope steepness (S), landcover management (C), and support practice (P) factors were generated. The layers were then overlaid, calculations were made and erosion susceptibility classes were generated. Thus, the spatial distribution of erosion susceptibility classes and the annual estimated amount of soil loss were determined. Based on the results, the Kuruçay Stream basin was found to have five distinct erosion susceptibility levels: low, moderate, high, severe, and extremely severe. Accordingly, 76% of the basin has low, 11.3% moderate, 6% high, 2.9% severe and finally 3.7% very severe erosion susceptibility. The Kuruçay Stream basin shows similar characteristics with the neighbouring river basins in terms of erosion sensitivity.
The Japanese climbing fern (Lygodium japonicum) invasion in the U.S.; insights from chloroplast genome sequencing

Published: September 2024

Japanese climbing fern (Lygodium japonicum) is a vine native to the open forests of eastern Asia that has become an invasive species in the U.S. Herbarium records first noted this species in the U.S. in 1903 (Georgia), with spread to eight states by the end of the 1930s and current establishment in 10 states of the southeastern U.S. We aimed to ask three questions regarding the introduction of L. japonicum: (1) Was there a single Japanese climbing fern introduction or were there multiple introductions? (2) What is the distribution of genotypes in the U.S.? and (3) What are the source population(s) from the native range in Asia? We sequenced the chloroplast genome from 74 L. japonicum herbarium specimens representing 24 native and 50 invasive range populations. Seventeen haplotypes were found in the native range compared to three in the invasive range. Our results indicate L. japonicum has low genotypic diversity in the invasive range relative to the native range. Even with low genotypic diversity, these data suggest at least three introductions of L. japonicum. However, we were unable to define the native source population(s) of invasive L. japonicum.
