The aim of this study is to identify the features of fraudulent journals. Fraudulent and clone journals wasted valuable manuscripts when scholars and authors publish their works in these journals. Fraud journals publish the articles without reviewing process with a high rate of fee while the name and ISSN of clone journals are identical to the original journals. Purposive sampling technique as well as document analysis method have been used to conduct this research. Two clone versions and two fraud journals of the SCOPUS indexing journals have been selected for reviewing their articles. Based on the discussion of this study, researchers found some characteristics of predatory/fraud/ clone journals that will help the scholars to avoid publishing on fake journals.
The orbitofrontal cartographer
Authors: Gardner Matthew P H , Schoenbaum Geoffrey
Published: October 2020

Theories of orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) function have evolved substantially over the last few decades. There is now a general consensus that the OFC is important for predicting aspects of future events and for using these predictions to guide behavior. Yet the precise content of these predictions and the degree to which OFC contributes to agency contingent upon them has become contentious, with several plausible theories advocating different answers to these questions. In this review we will focus on three of these ideas - the economic value, credit assignment, and cognitive map hypotheses – describing both their successes and failures. We will propose that these failures hint at a more nuanced role for the OFC in supporting the proposed functions when an underlying model or map of the causal structures in the environment must be constructed or updated.

By exploring two independent samples of parents collected in Belgium (N = 347) and Poland (N = 377), we indeed found: 1. parenting perfectionism puts parents at risk of parental burnout; 2. emotional competence reduces the risk of parental burnout; 3. emotional competence buffers the impact of parenting perfectionism on parental burnout; 4. these highlights are valid in both Polish and Belgian samples of parents.
Public opinion on coronavirus vaccination 1: A majority of Americans would take the existing Russian vaccine and believe that they ought to be allowed to buy it
Authors: Kelley Jonathan , Evans MDR , Corday Charlotte
Published: October 2020

In the US new vaccines are banned until shown to be safe and effective. But the approval process is slow and cautious and no vaccine has yet been approved. The faster but perhaps riskier Russian system produced an approved coronavirus vaccine months more quickly, leaving Americans at risk of dying for months longer than Russians. Our data from two national surveys in September show that a majority of Americans would willingly take the existing Russian vaccine and that a two-to-one majority – rich and poor, young and old, Democrat and Republican alike – believe that they ought to be allowed to do so. We estimate that making the Russian vaccine immediately available would save approximately 40 to 100 American lives each day after the first month and many more subsequently, To put the matter bluntly, current US government policy will kill some 40 to 100 people each day for a considerable period later this year and early next. To put those deaths in context, all American murderers combined kill only 45 people each day – not a record the US government should wish to emulate. There are also implications for the 2020 election; Since feelings about the Russian coronavirus vaccine are strongly favorable, and the benefits of allowing it in the US are large, making it available should be attractive politically. The Republican government has the power to adopt that policy and gain the credit. Alternatively, the Democratic opposition has the opportunity to advocate that policy, and claim the credit.

Authors: Davis Evan , Knoester Chris
Published: October 2020

AbstractBeliefs that sport participation inherently leads to personal development and social capital benefits have been termed the Great Sport Myth (Coakley, 2015). The purpose of this study was to examine the extent that U.S. adults embrace the Great Sport Myth and the potential influence that their primary groups, social stratification indicators, and sport experiences have had on their beliefs in the personal development and social capital benefits of sport. Data was collected through a large national U.S. survey, the National Sports and Society Survey, and analyzed with multiple regression analyses. Findings suggest that most Americans endorse the Great Sport Myth. Furthermore, primary groups, stratification indicators, and positive sport experiences appear to consistently shape beliefs in the Great Sport Myth.

Published: October 2020

In recent years, the emergence and rapid spread of multidrug-resistant microbes are increasingly becoming major concerns for public health because infections from such pathogens lead to higher mortality imposing huge healthcare costs. With the currently available drugs becoming ineffective due to the drug resistance developed by pathogens, the synthesis of more powerful antimicrobial agents with a broad spectrum of activity has become a crucial need for the treatment of microbial infections. Some new amino-substituted Schiff bases with triazole ring (4a-c) were prepared by cyclization of potassium 2-(2-hydroxybenzoyl) hydrazinecarbodithioate (2) with hydrazine hydrate followed by condensation with aromatic aldehydes. The newly synthesized compounds were characterized by spectral techniques like FTIR, 1H-NMR, and 13C-NMR. Antimicrobial screening of the synthesized compounds revealed that they possess good to moderate activities against a variety of microorganisms.

Authors: Venyo Anthony
Published: October 2020

Less than 50 cases of anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) re-arrangement-associated renal cell carcinoma (ALK-RCC) been reported in the literature. ALK-RCC does affect children who have sickle cell trait and also adults with no evidence of sickle cell trait or sickle cell disease. ALK-RCC may be diagnosed incidentally or in individuals who have typical symptoms that simulate those or more common renal tumours.. Diagnosis of ALK-RCC does depend upon histopathology examination, immunohistochemistry studies as well as electron microscopy studies of nephrectomy / biopsy specimens of the kidney lesion that that show: typical pathology examination features of ALK-RCC as described within the text. Immunohistochemistry studies in ALK-RCC tend to show positive staining for: ALK, PAX8, INI1 (Intact), AE1/AE3, CAM5.2, CK7, EMA, LMWCK, P53, +Vimentin, CD10 (this tends to be variable), AMACR (this tends to be variable), and TFE3 (within the majority of the tumour cells). Majority of ALK-RCCs have been localized tumours at the time of initial diagnosis, but some cases of locally advanced tumours or tumours associated with metastases have been reported. There is no consensus opinion on the treatment of ALK-RCC but nephrectomy has been undertaken in most cases with good short term and medium term; nevertheless metastases and death have been reported. Response to utilization of to ALK inhibitor alectinib, as well as ALK Translocation Renal Cell Carcinoma does respond to Crizotinib. Improvements in the outcome of ALK-RCC could possibly be achieved through routine screening of sickle cell trait individuals, routine pre-operative per-cutaneous radiology imaging guided biopsies of all renal lesions, small localized tumours could be treated by (a) partial nephrectomy, or (b) radical nephrectomy, (c) cryotherapy, (d) radiofrequency ablation, (e ) irreversible electroporation plus / minus adjuvant therapy (radiotherapy, chemotherapy or ALK inhibitor plus or minus immunotherapy.

Sustainable Approach in the Assessment of Safety and Environmental Regulatory Compliance During Mining Activities
Authors: Emetumah Faisal C. Emetumah
Published: October 2020

ABSTRACT Optimal resource extraction involves balancing economic, environmental and social aspects. Even though there are regulatory mechanisms, safety anomalies and environmental pollution have persisted during mining activities in Nigeria. The study aims at developing an approach for evaluating safety and environmental regulatory compliance during mining activities, based on effects of noncompliance and having compliance issues. Crosssectional survey design was used in collecting data from miners operating within active mining sites in Ebonyi State, Nigeria. Results indicate that prevalence of noncompliance effects had a four-component structure, while factorial prediction was a good-fit for having compliance issues. The proposed approach integrates dimensions of noncompliance effects with factors predicted having compliance issues during mining activities. The approach can help mining companies, governments and mining communities in Africa improve safety and environmental regulatory compliance
Broadening the Engineering Canon

Within engineering, Western, White, colonial knowledge has historically been privileged over other ways of knowing. Few engineering educators recognize the impact of ethnocentricity and masculinity of the engineering curriculum on our students. In this paper we argue for a new approach, one which seeks to create an engineering curriculum that recognizes the great diversity of cultural practices that exist in the world. We begin by reviewing key ideas from three pedagogies not typically incorporated in engineering education: Culturally Relevant/Responsive Pedagogy, Culturally Sustaining Pedagogy, and Indigenous Pedagogy. We then present our attempts to develop an engineering curricula informed by these practices. We describe interventions we have tried at two levels: modules within traditional engineering sciences and entirely new courses. We aim to convince readers that these pedagogies may be a key tool in changing the dominant discourse of engineering education, improving the experience for those students already here, and making it more welcoming to those who are not.

Objective: This study was aimed to assess pharmacovigilance and adverse drug reactions knowledge, attitudes and practices of dental research assistants.
Material and Method: A cross-sectional survey was conducted in a teaching hospital at Cukurova University, Adana, Turkey, for one month. All the registered dental research assistants were invited to participate in the study. Data collection was carried out through the self-administered and validated questionnaire. The final data was analyzed by using SPSS version 21.0 (IBM, Armonk, NY, USA). Descriptive statistics such as frequencies and percentages have been determined.
Results: The questionnaire was completed by invited participants with a response rate of 92.5%. Male (n=30, 60%) was more than female (n=20, 40%) with an average age of 27.44 (SD± 2.32) years. None of the participants received pharmacovigilance training in the last 1 year. The majority of participants (60%) were unable to define pharmacovigilance and only 20% (n=10) of the dentists have correctly defined ADRs. The Most of respondents (90%) recognize ADR reporting as a professional obligation and sixty percent (n=30) perceived that the reporting of serious and unexpected ADRs are mandatory. The participants perceived that difficulties during filling of ADR forms, loss of timing and lack of information on pharmacovigilance are the main reason for the under-reporting of ADRs. Moreover, all dentists reported that they did not observe serious/severe ADRs, and 40% (n=20) reported not asking about ADR history while interacting with a patient for the first time during their practice.
Conclusion: The current study demonstrated a lack of awareness and knowledge of pharmacovigilance and ADR among dental research assistants. The inclusion of pharmacovigilance literature in the education program is mandatory and pre-and post-graduate training should be provided to dentists for rational practices.

Objectives: Osteoporosis is an important public health problem which is characterized by loss of bone mass resulting in susceptibility to fractures. There is much evidence indicating that uric acid, a final enzymatic product of purine metabolism, has beneficial antioxidant effects on several chronic diseases such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension and cardiovascular diseases. We aimed to evaluate the relationship between serum uric acid levels and bone mineral density (BMD) on postmenopausal osteoporosis in the present study.
Material and Method: This study was carried out at the Bolu İzzet Baysal Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Training and Research Hospital, Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation.. The medical records of 1200 postmenopausal women between January 2019 and 2020 who had dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) examination and serum uric acid levels recorded were screened retrospectively. In total, 92 individuals with osteoporosis and 399 healthy individuals were included in the study after exclusion of subjects with systemic diseases or taking drugs affecting bone metabolism or uric acid levels. Bone mineral density and T scores of femur neck (F neck) and lumbar spine (L2-L4), glucose, AST, ALT, creatinine, alkaline phosphatase, calcium, phosphate, parathormone (PTH), albumin and total protein were all recorded in individuals.
Results: Serum uric acid concentrations were found to be significantly lower in the osteoporosis group compared with the control group [4.65(2.40-7.80) vs 5.20 (3.80-9.40); p<0.001, respectively]. In correlation analysis, uric acid was significantly associated with fasting blood glucose (r=0.129, p=0.004), creatinine (r=0.374, p<0.001), calcium (r=0.201, p<0.001), total protein (r=0.123, p=0.006) and TSH (r=0.108, p=0.017). Correlation analysis also revealed a significant and positive correlation between uric acid and L2-L4 BMD (r=0.255, p<0.001). L2-L4 BMD was found to be independently related with uric acid in multivariate linear regression analysis after adjustment for confounding factors (B=1.619, p<0.001).
Conclusion: Our findings revealed that serum uric acid levels and lumbar (L2-L4) BMD were independently associated with each other in postmenopausal osteoporosis. Further studies are needed to determine the association of uric acid with osteoporosis and to address the utility of uric acid in clinical practice.
