Analysis of Ascaris lumbricoides Infection with Total Ig E Levels in Elementary School Children of Lifuleo Village, East Kupang District
Authors: Meliance Bria  , Honey Donuarta
Published: November 2024

Worm infections are a health concern in Indonesia and all other tropical nations. A number of species, including roundworms (Ascaris lumbricoides), whipworms (Trichuris trichiura), hookworms (Hookworms), Necator americanus, Ancylostoma duodenale, and Strongyloides stercoralis, are members of the Soil Transmitted Helminth nematodes. Children in elementary school are among the age groups most vulnerable to Ascaris lumbricoides. Without a clean and healthy lifestyle, an Ascaris lumbricoides infection might have major repercussions. Research on the correlation between Ascaris lumbricoides infection and total immunoglobulin E levels in primary school students is therefore required. This study uses a cross-sectional, observational analytical design. Children at Lifuleo Village's elementary schools served as the research subjects. The ECLIA method was used to assess total immunoglobulin E levels, and the Kato-Katz method was used to diagnose Ascaris lumbricoides infection under a microscope. An aberrant total immunoglobulin E level of 12.5% was observed in 42.5% of Ascaris lumbricoides eggs, according to the examination results.

Published: November 2024

This study investigates the factors influencing the utilization of adolescent health services among school dropout adolescents in the Sakra subdistrict of East Lombok, Indonesia. Employing a mixed-methods approach, the research combines quantitative data from structured questionnaires with qualitative insights gathered through in-depth interviews. A total of 37 school dropout adolescents, aged 14-19 years, were purposively sampled to participate in the study. The findings from this study underscore the multifaceted factors influencing school dropout adolescents' access to health services in the Sakra subdistrict of East Lombok regency. The six predictors highlighted the importance of knowledge, family support, distance, the role of health professionals, and the recognition of health needs in shaping adolescents' engagement with health services. Addressing these interconnected factors through a comprehensive approach can promote health equity and improve the overall well-being of school dropout adolescents, contributing to healthier communities in the long run.

Meta-analysis of hydatid disease in Iranian children
Authors: Babaei Maryam , Azimi Fatemeh
Published: November 2024

Background: Hydatid disease is still a significant risk worldwide. It is a parasitic infection in many cattle and sheep breeding areas, including Iran. Objective: The aim of this article is to review the clinical symptoms, laboratory parameters, imaging findings, and management of hydatid disease. Patients and Methods: Data were collected from medical records of patients with hydatid disease in eight hospitals in different provinces of Iran from 2001 to 2014. Results: Overall, 161 children with a mean age of 9.25 years (age range = 1-15 years) hospitalized with hydatid cyst disease between 2010 and 2024 were studied. The male to female ratio was 1.6:1. The most common organ involved in this regard was the lung (67.1%) followed by the liver (44.1%), and the combination of lung and liver accounted for 15.5% of the total. Cysts were mostly located in the right side of the liver and lung. The most common symptoms were fever (35.4%) and abdominal pain (31.7%), and the most common symptoms were abdominal mass in the liver and cough. Also, a high number of eosinophils was reported in 41% of the samples. Erythrocyte sedimentation rate or C-reactive protein was positive in 18.6% of the patients and leukocytosis was more than 150,000/micl in 29.2% of the patients. Ultrasonography was the main test with an accuracy of more than 96% and chest X-ray was performed in 88.6% of the patients. A survey was performed in 89% of the patients and selected patients were considered for medical treatment or injection. Conclusion: The lung was the most common organ involved in the children studied. Given the high probability of multiorgan involvement, we recommend that patients with hydatid be evaluated by ultrasonography and X-ray. In endemic areas, eosinophilia should be considered as a parasitic disease, as should hydatid and its complications.
The Concept of Legislative Criminal Policy in The Blue of Cybercrimes
Authors: Falahi Mehrdad , Rajabi Akbar , Golkhandan Samira
Published: November 2024

The emergence of the term criminal policy by Feuerbach, a German jurist at the end of the 18th century, was related to this rationalism in dealing with crime, and the word "policy" was born from it, which implies the concept of guided thinking and purposefulness, with a special meaning that is called Criminal "policy" has led to the acceptance and spread of this term in today's legal and sociological language, similar to the spread of terms such as "economic policy" and "cultural policy". One of the most important criminal policies of Iran in the prevention of computer crimes is its legislation in this field. Legislation in cyberspace can be explained with a three-step approach. Legislation in criminal law methods should start with recognizing the use of new technology and special departments along with police security structures or in the general concept of the police need to have the necessary conditions to investigate cybercrimes.
The third step is writing new rules. Based on experience, it may be difficult for legal authorities to implement the law-writing process for cybercrimes without international cooperation due to the rapid growth of network technology and its complex structures.

Authors: Freitas Filho José Pereira de , Lima João Victor Sampaio Correia , Siqueira Ronaldo Alves de , Sousa Linardy de Moura
Published: November 2024

Lean Construction is a process optimization system that enables construction without compromising its quality, physical performance and comfort for users, in addition to reducing waste. This paper aims to present lean methodologies in civil construction as a proposal for reducing waste in civil construction. The methodology applied was a bibliographic review that emphasized cases of application of Lean Construction tools and indicators in civil construction. It was observed that the use of Lean Construction in civil construction proved to be an effective approach, especially when it comes to reducing waste generated in construction sites. This occurs through the elimination of activities that do not add any value to the final stage and the use of the necessary quantities of materials, that is, all resources in the works will be used, avoiding excessive losses.

Teachers and schools have the opportunity to play an essential role in developing healthy habits in students. Their purpose is to determine behavioral patterns at this stage of a child's development. Many oral health problems can be prevented, and their early onset can be reversible. However, a considerable number of children, parents and teachers have limited knowledge of the causes and prevention of oral diseases. Oral health can be promoted by improving education and correct information about risk factors, as well as encouraging the population to adopt healthy behaviors and lifestyles.

Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure that mainly has a cosmetic role but also implies a functional one for the improvement of nasal obstruction. The wide variation in the patient’s nasal anatomy and aesthetic desires make this surgery a difficult one. Throughout time, variable techniques have been described, like closed ones and opened ones. The last trends in rhinoplasty are the hybrid rhinoplasty and the preservation rhinoplasty techniques. Taking into account all this, it is necessary to guide a beginner in rhinoplasty to some easier techniques and some cases with low difficulty. Material and methods: We used the literature available in English by consulting the main medical databases (NCBI®, EMBASE®, Cochrane®), using as keywords for search: ‘easy rhinoplasty techniques’, ‘first steps in rhinoplasty’. We analyzed the studies published in the last 15 years. Several reference books for rhinoplasty were also used. Results: The first stage of rhinoplasty is represented by the preoperative analysis and discussion with the patient. Various questionnaires should be submitted prior to surgery to analyze the mental health status and patient expectations. The aesthetic principles of the face will be analyzed. Open rhinoplasty techniques are perceived as easier due to the increased visibility and seem to be used more by beginners. A big hump, along with a skin of moderate thickness, without the need to correct the nose or the nasal pyramid is the most suitable case for the first steps in rhinoplasty. A combination of open and closed techniques that can be used for beginners is the open approach by transcolumellar incision. Conclusions: Very important for a beginner in rhinoplasty is the correct selection of patients. This should include a careful psychological evaluation, and then the identification of low-difficulty surgical cases that can guarantee success at first. Open rhinoplasty with transcolumellar incision is a more accessible technique that can be used in selected cases until the surgeon has obtain sufficient experience.

Purpose: Aim of this report is to describe a case of a patient with mixed dentition, dento-skeletal class II malocclusion, deep bite and increased overjet. The objectives of treatment were to correct the dento-skeletal malocclusion, to obtain a correct overbite and overjet, to control the permanent teeth in a good eruption and to improve aesthetical conditions. Materials and Methods: Treatment plan for a female patient with class II division 1 malocclusion with mixt dentition included interceptive treatment with two elastodontic appliances Myobrace® K1 and K2. Results: In this case, it shows that the use of the elastodontic interceptive appliance series shows a significant change in class II division 1 malocclusion. Discussion: Various authors present solved clinical examples and recommend the use of elastodontic appliance in non-extraction malocclusion patients with permanent canines and bicuspids at the onset of eruption to treat overbite and overjet issues of any severity. Conclusions: Early orthodontic diagnostic and treatment is important to guide dentitions during the development of a functional and morphological occlusion

The greater palatine foramen (GPF) is located in the postero-lateral angle of the hard palate. We aimed at studying these topographical patterns of the GPF. A random retrospective Cone Beam Computed Tomography study was performed on 104 archived case files. There was recorded on each side the topographical type of the GPF. Edentulous sites were noted “E”. Bilateral symmetry of the GPF was determined as “right-left” combinations of types. In 41 cases were found bilateral 4E types corresponding to the GPF located medially to the edentulous site of the third upper molar. In 19 cases was recorded the bilateral combination „4+4”: the GPF was at the level of the third upper molars. Most existing studies did not document the bilateral combinations of GPF types. We demonstrate that if on one side the GPF has a certain topographical pattern it is not mandatory for the opposite one to have the same tooth-related topography.

Savoirs et savoir-faire des pilotes du Saint-Laurent
Authors: Marchand Suzanne
Published: November 2024

En 2021, la Société québécoise d’ethnologie a obtenu une subvention du ministère de la Culture et des communications du Québec pour réaliser une recherche concernant les savoirs et savoir-faire des pilotes du Saint-Laurent. Cette recherche a permis de rassembler une importante quantité d’informations qui témoignent de la valeur exceptionnelle du pilotage sur le fleuve Saint-Laurent en tant qu’élément du patrimoine immatériel québécois. De l’époque de la Nouvelle-France jusqu’à aujourd’hui, le fleuve Saint-Laurent a été sillonné par une multitude de navires fort différents et, dans cet univers en constante évolution, les pilotes ont dû s’adapter à de nouvelles technologies, mais les connaissances qu’ils ont acquises et qu’ils se sont transmises de génération en génération demeurent encore aujourd’hui leurs outils les plus précieux pour effectuer leur travail.
The use of cryogenic resources by participants of scientific research expeditions to the Arctic regions of Yakutia. The end of the XIX – the first quarter of the XX centuries.
Authors: Suleymanov Aleksandr Albertovich
Published: November 2024

The subject of the article is an analysis of the experience of taking into account the traditional knowledge of the indigenous peoples of the Russian Arctic and the use by representatives of the research community in the course of their professional activities in high latitudes of cryogenic resources – material objects and forces of nature exploited by society, the origin and development of which is due to the sphere of cold. In this regard, the purpose of this article is to reconstruct the practices of using cryogenic resources in the course of conducting expeditionary research in the Arctic regions of Yakutia during the 1880s – mid-1920s. In this regard, the author's attention is drawn to the history of the Lena (1882–1884) and Russian polar expeditions (1900–1902), the Lena-Kolyma expedition (1909) and some other works performed on the territory of Yakutia. A complex of source material has been attracted, which includes documents from the archival collections of the years, as well as scientific papers published based on the results of the studies. Special methods of historical cognition were used in the analysis of this range of sources. The methodological basis for the development of the topic was the application of the noted principles laid down in cryosophy and anthropology of cold. The conducted research made it possible for the first time to show the practices of exploitation of cryogenic resources by participants of expeditions to the Arctic regions of Yakutia during the period under review. The properties of natural cold, snow, ice and permafrost were found to be used in providing representatives of the scientific community with nutrition (obtaining drinking water, cryogenic effects during cooking, food storage), performing their routes (snow and ice roads, ice bridges, icing of sled runners), as well as in the process of the arrangement of dwellings and pavilions for research (windows made of ice). The data obtained during the research also give some idea of the effectiveness of scientists' adoption of the experience of the indigenous peoples of the Russian Arctic and, in general, the fruitfulness of the dialogue between representatives of the research community and the local population.
The Republic of Madagascar in the context of the foreign policy interests of the Russian Federation on the African continent
Authors: Rakotomalala Harimanohy Louisette Mangatina Estera
Published: November 2024

The relevance of this study is due to, first, the strengthening of cooperation between the Russian Federation and African states against the background of the deterioration of Russia’s relations with European and North American states; second, the change in the foreign policy of the Russian Federation since the collapse of the USSR towards African states; third, the increased interest of leading states (PRC, France, United Kingdom, USA) in the African continent due to certain factors: rapid population growth in Africa, rare-earth natural resources, good geographical location. The object of this study is the bilateral relations between Russia and Madagascar.The subject of this study is the Republic of Madagascar in the context of the foreign policy interests of the Russian Federation on the African continent. The main purpose of the study is to determine the place of the Republic of Madagascar in the foreign policy of the Russian Federation. This scientific article is based on the theory of political realism, which implies that states are fighting for their own national interests. During the research the author used the following scientific methods: content analysis, mediametry analysis, chronological, statistical. The scientific novelty of the study is due to the the identification of features of transformation of foreign policy course of the Russian Federation in relation to African states since the dissolution of the Soviet Union. Moreover, the author notes the peripherality of the Republic of Madagascar in the current foreign policy course of the Russian Federation towards African States. The main conclusions of the study conducted are the determination of a significant gap between the level of economic cooperation and political and cultural-humanitarian; characterization of changes in the foreign policy of Russia towards African states since 1993; the non-priority status of Madagascar in the foreign policy of Russia.
Digital Currency and Stablecoin: correlation of concepts for tax regulation purposes
Authors: Groshev Semen Aleksandrovich
Published: November 2024

The article is devoted to the study of the content and correlation of the concepts of "digital currency" and "stablecoin". The subject of the article is the peculiarities of the legal regime of digital currencies and stablecoins, as well as the tax consequences of transactions with such assets. The purpose of the study is to determine the potential tax consequences of transactions involving digital currency and stablecoin, taking into account the economic and legal relationship of these concepts. As a result of the research conducted by the author, it is concluded that under Russian law, the main distinguishing feature of a stablecoin from a digital currency will be the presence or absence of a certain obligor. It is noted that despite the absence of a legally defined term "stablecoin", some of its types can be qualified as digital currencies or digital rights. In the case of a possible qualification of a stablecoin as a digital right, such a stablecoin can be characterised as a digital right that includes a monetary claim or as a hybrid digital asset. The fact that the value of a stablecoin is tied to a specific value does not in itself affect the characterisation of such an asset for the purposes of considering potential tax consequences. The lack of legally established rules for the taxation of digital currencies affects the ability to determine the potential tax consequences of transactions involving a stablecoin, if it is classified as a digital currency. It is concluded that the existing explanations of the state authorities on the taxation of digital currencies are not sufficient to correctly determine the tax consequences of transactions with such assets. The results of the study can be used in the development of legislation on the taxation of transactions with digital currencies and stablecoins.

Published: November 2024

The relevance and scientific significance of the research topic are determined by the importance of charity as a type of social practice aimed at preventing negative consequences of social risks for a person and solving social problems. The article presents the characteristics of the Yenisei Gubernskie Vedomosti newspaper in the context of donations and charitable events during the First World War. The full set of the publication for the period from August 1, 1914 (the beginning of military actions) to [21] March 1917 (the end of the publication of the newspaper under the specified name) was analyzed. The main research questions were focused on identifying the forms of charitable donations and ways of attracting them, determining the initiators/actors of charitable events and recipients of assistance, establishing the dynamics of indicators (the volume of donations, the number of charitable events, etc.) and their spatial differentiation. The work applies the main concepts and approaches of historical informatics, the analytical part is based on the statistical processing of historical data, which increases the efficiency of using the information potential of the source. The scientific novelty of the work lies in solving the problem of organizing the source information, characterized by unevenness of the deposited data, weak formalization, different completeness of characteristics of a particular object according to the parameters studied. A number of quantitative (number of charity events, volume of their resources) and qualitative (means and forms of assistance, structure of donations, mechanisms for raising funds) are given. Based on the frequency of occurrence of semantic categories in the array of the Yenisei Gubernskie Vedomosti newspaper, the authors state the asynchronous and nonlinear development of social campaigns to raise funds aimed at supporting the front and needy strata of the population during the period under study (August 1914 - March 1917).

Results: :
Significant direct and indirect effects of traditional victimization and cyber-victimization on suicidal ideation were confirmed. Family communication moderated the direct effects of cyber-victimization on suicidal ideation, but not the direct effects of traditional victimization on suicidal ideation. In addition, it moderated the relationship between traditional victimization and cyber-victimization.

Conclusions: :
Family communication is a protective factor associated with decreased cyber-victimization in adolescents who suffer traditional victimization and reduced suicidal ideation in victims of cyber-victimization.

Authors: Sierra Juan Carlos , Cervilla Oscar , Álvarez-Muelas Ana , Sánchez-Fuentes María del Mar
Published: November 2024

Background::
The Sexual Inhibition/Sexual Excitation Scales-Short Form (SIS/SES-SF) is a brief instrument for assessing the propensity for sexual excitement and inhibition in men and women. The aim of the present study was to provide evidence for the validity and reliability of the Spanish version of the SIS/SES-SF scores by examining invariance, reliability (information function and internal consistency), the relationship between the scores and sexual functioning, and presenting its standard scores.

Method::
A total of 2,223 Spanish heterosexuals (43.41% men and 56.59% women) aged 18 to 83 years (M = 39.94, SD = 11.95), distributed across age groups (18-34, 35-49, ≥ 50 years old) participated.

Results::
The three-factor structure of the Spanish version of SIS/SES-SF showed weak measurement invariance by sex and strict measurement invariance by age. The scores explained the dimensions of sexual functioning, especially sexual arousal and erection/lubrication. In addition, men and women without difficulties in sexual functioning demonstrated more propensity for sexual excitation and less sexual inhibition. The standard scores are presented by sex and age group.

Conclusions: :
The study provides evidence of the validity and reliability of the SIS/SES-SF measures, confirming its usefulness for assessing propensity to sexual excitation and inhibition.

Published: November 2024

Background: :
The use of online questionnaires to assess common mental disorders such as perinatal anxiety has spread due to the proliferation of Internet-based psychological interventions and research. This study analyses the validity and reliability of the online version of the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) in a sample of pregnant and postpartum Spanish women.

Method::
A total of 3082 pregnant ( = 1260) and postpartum ( = 1822) women were recruited via the Internet and underwent three follow-up evaluations during a six-month period.

Results::
A one-factor solution was assigned by Exploratory Factor Analysis and confirmed by Confirmatory Factor Analysis for both pregnant (CFI = 0.998; RMSEA = 0.035) and postpartum (CFI = 0.998; RMSEA = 0.038) women. The one-factor model showed strict invariance across groups. Validity was confirmed by assessing correlations between GAD-7, the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale, and the 10-item Posttraumatic Stress Disorder checklist at three time points. The reliability coefficient was .92 for the two groups.

Conclusions::
This study shows that the Spanish online GAD-7 version has good psychometric properties and can be used to assess anxiety symptoms during the perinatal period.

Authors: Martínez-Bacaicoa Jone , Henry Nicola , Mateos-Pérez Estibaliz , Gámez-Guadix Manuel
Published: November 2024

Background: :
The aim of this study was to analyze the prevalence, age and gender differences, and psychological outcomes (anxiety, depression and self-esteem) related to being a victim of different forms of online gendered violence (OGV), namely: digital sexual harassment; physical appearance-based violence; gender role-based violence; and anti-feminism violence.

Method::
2,471 respondents (71.1 % women) aged 18-79 years ( = 27.28, = 10.08) completed self-report measures.

Results::
The results showed that 82.6 % of respondents had experienced at least one form of OGV in the last 12 months. The most frequent form of OGV was digital sexual harassment (66.7%), followed by physical appearance-based violence (60.7%), anti-feminism violence (60.7%) and gender role-based violence (25.4%). OGV was significantly higher among women (88%) than men (68.6%), as well as among younger adults. Finally, the results showed that these forms of violence were associated with worse psychological outcomes, especially for younger respondents and for women.

Conclusions::
OGV is a common phenomenon that may be related to lower psychological well-being. This study provides relevant information that can shape the design of prevention and intervention programs for this form of digital violence.

In a laser Doppler vibrometer (LDV), the laser Doppler effect is used to real-time acquire target displacement, velocity, and acceleration. Fiber optic laser vibrometers have received widespread attention in recent years due to their strong environmental adaptability and high integration advantages. With the expansion of detection target distance, higher requirements have been put forward for the measurement resolution of laser vibrometers. The LDV system typically employs a transceiver integrated telescope structure for laser emission and target return light reception. The aperture and focal length of the transceiver telescope determine its basic structure, directly affecting the emission and reception efficiency of laser energy. Additionally, the speckle effect generated by the scattering of rough targets affects the coupling of light energy entering the fiber optic for interference, thereby influencing the LDV measurement resolution.

Based on relevant theories such as Gaussian beam waist transmission, rough target generation, Fresnel diffraction integration, and fiber optic coupling, a transceiver integrated fiber optic laser vibrometer optical field transmission model is established. Numerical simulation and analysis of the emission transmission process of ideal Gaussian laser and the coupling process of surface target echo reception are conducted. Based on the assumption of laser vibrometer speckle noise limitation, an evaluation scheme for the instrument’s noise baseline under rough target return light conditions is proposed. Numerical simulation experiments are conducted for a typical fiber LDV application scenario with an alignment distance of 1 km, a single-mode fiber mode field radius of 5 μm, and a laser wavelength of 1550 nm. The results indicate that the focal length and aperture of the transceiver telescope determine the distribution of system energy utilization and further affect the instrument’s noise baseline. Simulation results show that when the F-number of the transceiver lens reaches 3.3, LDV achieves the highest system energy utilization at this focal length, verifying the correctness of the simulation model. The simulation results can serve as a basis for the design of transceiver lenses for fiber optic laser vibrometers, laser anemometers, and other devices.

The localization is one of the active and fundamental research areas in topology physics. In this field, a comprehensive understanding of how wave functions distribute within a system is crucial. This work delves into this topic by proposing a novel systematic method based on a generalized Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) model. This model incorporates a quasiperiodic non-Hermitian term that appears at an off-diagonal position, adding a layer of complexity to the traditional SSH framework.

By utilizing this model, we analyze the localization behaviors of both bulk state and edge state. For the bulk states, the analysis reveals a fascinating transition sequence. Specifically, the bulk states can undergo an extended-coexisting-localized-coexisting-localized transition, which is induced by the introduction of quasidisorder. This transition is not arbitrary but is rather conformed by the inverse participation ratio (IPR), a metric that quantifies the degree of localization of a wave function. As quasidisorder increases, the bulk states initially remain extended, but gradually, some states begin to be localized. A coexistence region appears where both extended and localized states are present. Further increase in quasidisorder leads to a complete localization of all bulk states. However, remarkably, within a certain range of quasidisorder strengths, the localized states can once again transition back to an extended state, creating another coexistence region. This complex behavior demonstrates the rich and diverse localization properties of the bulk states in non-Hermitian quasiperiodic systems.

In addition to the IPR, other metrics such as the normalized participation ratio (NPR) and the fractal dimension of the eigenstates also play important roles in characterizing the localization behavior. These metrics provide a more in-depth understanding of the transition process and help to confirm the existence of the coexistence regions.

Overall, we comprehensively analyze the localization behaviors of bulk and edge states in non-Hermitian quasiperiodic systems based on a generalized SSH model. The proposed systematic method present new insights into the complex interplay between quasidisorder, non-Hermiticity, and localization properties in topological physics.
