Authors: Hu Linhui , Li Jinxiao , Chen Lidan , Shan Qian , Jin Yu , Ren Guangpei
Published: November 2024

Color is an essential element in the exhibition space of museums, influencing people’s visual experience. To quantitatively study the relationship between color and individual visual perception in museum exhibition spaces, the study used eye-tracking technology combined with a questionnaire, exploring the relationship between color and visual perception in the exhibition environments of history museums in terms of hue, saturation, and brightness of color. Taking the Ruijin Central Revolutionary Base in Jiangxi Province as a historical display space for research, the results show that when the saturation is 69–77%, or the hue is red (0°H), the exhibited. environments have stronger color attractiveness. The study demonstrated that the first fixation duration in eye movement data significantly negatively correlates with the subject’s personal preference, comfort, pleasure, and attractiveness. Researchers can use this as an evaluation parameter for visual perception of exhibition space.
Identifying quality responses using an analysis of response times: the RTcutoff function in R
Authors: Sideridis Georgios , Alghamdi Mohammed
Published: November 2024

Introduction

The present study aims to develop an R function to develop and visualize thresholds that describe the response time of individuals concerning their sample. The function utilizes the cumulative proportion correct (CUMP) approach, to estimate item-specific time threshold, which originated in the work of Guo and his colleagues. Besides the CUMP approach, the present function presents response time profiles on a measure using the mean of the sample and + 1SD times so that it can discern between thoughtful engagement and processing with an item (termed problem-solving behavior) and rapid responding, guessing, and disengagement with the test. The advantage of the CUMP model utilized here is that it simultaneously engages both response time and response correctness to establish thresholds that differentiate engaged from disengaged participants.

Methods

Given data on a measure of reading comprehension for students in Saudi Arabia (n = 494) using the Progress in International Reading Literacy Study (PIRLS 2021) international assessment, high and low-achieving individuals that engaged in different behavior patterns were identified and plotted against their sample.

Results and conclusion

Results pointed to the importance and necessity of the RTcutoff function to identify variable forms of engagement that have implications for person-score validity but also have implications for test validity and the need to increase measurement precisio.
An analysis of dialogue repair in virtual assistants
Authors: Galbraith Matthew
Published: November 2024

Conversational user interfaces have transformed human-computer interaction by providing nearly real-time responses to queries. However, misunderstandings between the user and system persist. This study explores the significance of interactional language in dialogue repair between virtual assistants and users by analyzing interactions with Google Assistant and Siri in both English and Spanish, focusing on the assistants’ utilization and response to the colloquial other-initiated repair strategy “huh?”, which is prevalent as a human-human dialogue repair strategy. Findings revealed ten distinct assistant-generated repair strategies, but an inability to replicate human-like strategies such as “huh?”. Despite slight variations in user acceptability judgments among the two surveyed languages, results indicated an overall hierarchy of preference towards specific dialogue repair strategies, with a notable disparity between the most preferred strategies and those frequently used by the assistants. These findings highlight discrepancies in how interactional language is utilized in human-computer interaction, underscoring the need for further research on the impact of interactional elements among different languages to advance the development of conversational user interfaces across domains, including within human-robot interaction.
Improving the hospital or immunizing its organization? Patient and public involvement at the service of quality
Authors: Voz Bernard , Pétré Benoît , Orianne Jean-François
Published: November 2024

Introduction

There is a pressing need for the hospitals to improve their quality and become more patient-centered. Over the last decade, several approaches were implemented to meet this demand, such as hospital accreditation or patient surveys. Many studies have addressed the patient involvement systems from the viewpoint of the factors that drive them or the achieved performance. In this study, we examined the patient involvement from the viewpoint of its function and operation rather than its performance. Following Luhmann, we reconsidered quality to be related to the absorption of uncertainty rather than improvement or innovation. The adaptation of an organization to involve patient participation can be regarded as contributing to the immune function of the organizational system.

Methods

Three case studies addressing patient and family advisory councils in general hospitals were conducted in Belgium. Qualitative empirical material is retrieved from observation, documentation, and interviews.

Results

Our findings suggest that the immune function of the hospital organization operates in four main phases. First, we assess how the communicative process indicates the relevant difference that needs to be addressed. Role differentiation occurs through the depoliticization and depersonalization of criticism. Second, given the impossible realization of first-order observation of the environment, our material shows how second-order observation is organized through a dual representation. Third, we unveil how the environmental representation requires a specific organizational socialization to overcome the representation paradox. Finally, we analyze how the whole described process must fulfil the preparation of a repertoire of responses to the irritations of its environment.

Discussion

The analysis revealed that patient and family advisory councils complete a crucial immune function for organizations, far beyond the simple discussion of the “nuts and bolts” of organizational structure. These findings permit to discuss implications of the notions of participation and quality regarding to identity work of stakeholders, open organization, and change management.
Exploring the possibility of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and fulleranes as the carrier of the 21 micron emission feature
Authors: Liao Xuan-Xiang , Zhang Yong , Sadjadi SeyedAbdolreza
Published: November 2024

Introduction

The 21 μm emission feature discovered in a small sample of carbon-rich protoplanetary nebulae has remained unidentified for over 30 years. A dozen of different molecular species (both organics and inorganics) have been proposed as the carrier candidates of this important feature, among which polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and fulleranes (hydrogenated fullerenes) have yet to be sufficiently examined.

Method

In this study, we attempt to fit the 21 μm features in observed spectra of the above-mentioned astronomical sources via theoretically simulated spectra of various PAHs and fulleranes, aiming to investigate whether the two hydrocarbon families can reproduce the 21 μm feature.

Results and Discussion

Based on the fitting outcomes we conclude that fulleranes can provide a more plausible explanation for the origin of 21 μm feature than PAHs.

Authors: Fuchs Lisa Elena , Orero Levi , Kipkorir Lang’at , Apondi Victoria , Owili Sulman Olieko
Published: November 2024

Urgent action is needed to address climate change, land degradation, and biodiversity loss. The Regreening Africa project (2017–2023), recently recognized as a UN World Restoration Flagship, aimed to reverse land degradation over large areas of land for the triple benefit of people, biodiversity, and climate in eight African countries. Based on projections and early lessons learned, the project sought to identify sustainable scaling models to achieve its ambitious targets. The so-called “Asset-Based Community-driven Development (ABCD) in Regreening” project aimed to demonstrate the positive contribution of deliberate community engagement and co-design. The project introduced ABCD sessions to 30 purposively selected community groups in the Regreening intensification sites in western Kenya. ABCD combines a unique set of framings, methods, and processes that focus on people’s assets and agency, and emphasizes the importance of their attitudes toward self and others for sustainable behavior change. To evidence that ABCD intrinsically contributes to sustainable adoption and scaling of Regreening practices, the project developed the F-ACT+ tool to assess the alignment between ABCD and agroecological practices, and collected baseline and endline data from 300 project and 300 non-project participants. Results showed accelerated agroecological integration among ABCD project participants. ABCD participants showed significant improvements in nine agroecological principles and eight system components, particularly in the economic diversification, social values and diets, and knowledge co-creation principles, as well as in the pest and disease, household, and value chain system components. Summary ATT between ABCD and non-ABCD respondents was positive and significant in 10 principles and eight system components. The results support the synergistic contribution of ABCD to projects targeting sustainable behavior change at the individual and collective levels. Due to its focus on outcomes, this study provided limited insight into the specific mechanisms of ABCD, which are the subject of a separate publication on parallel theory-based contribution analysis work.

Published: November 2024

Introduction

In the diagnostics of orthopedic diseases in the horse, diagnostic imaging often plays a decisive role. Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) imaging is used in both human and small animal medicine and becoming increasingly popular. To see whether CBCT imaging can be useful in the diagnosis of orthopedic diseases of the carpal region of the horse and to explore possible limitations we compared CBCT images with multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) images of the carpal region of equine cadaveric specimens.

Materials and methods

Twenty-eight forelimbs from fifteen horses, slaughtered for reasons unrelated to this study, were examined. Native and contrast enhanced CBCT and MDCT scans were performed. Anatomical structures were blindly evaluated by three independent experienced observers using a visual scoring system previously reported and adapted to the equine carpal region. A descriptive evaluation was carried out as well as Spearman’s rank correlation and interobserver agreement was shown by percent agreement (PA).

Results

Visualization of osseous structures was excellent in both MDCT and CBCT. Articular cartilage could only be assessed in contrast enhanced scans whereby MDCT showed a slightly better visualization than CBCT. Soft tissue structures were generally difficult to assess. An exception were the medial and lateral palmar intercarpal ligament, which could not be visualized in native but were well visualized in contrast enhanced scans in both MDCT and CBCT images.

Discussion/conclusion

For the evaluation of osseous structures and some intraarticular ligaments after contrast enhancement, CBCT serves as a reliable diagnostic imaging modality for the equine carpal region. However, soft tissue structures and cartilage are imaged more reliably using MDCT.
Vehicle Trajectory Prediction Using Residual Diffusion Model Based on Image Information
Authors: He Wei , Li Haoxuan , Wang Tao , Wang Nan
Published: November 2024

In automatic driving, accurate prediction of vehicle trajectory is the key to achieve automatic driving, and multi-vehicle joint trajectory prediction has become an important part of modern human-computer interaction systems such as automatic driving. In order to better predict vehicle trajectories, we propose a new residual diffusion model to infer the joint distribution of future multi-vehicle trajectories. This approach has several major advantages. First, the model is able to learn multiple probability distributions from trajectory data to obtain potential outcomes for vehicles to multiple future trajectories. Secondly, in order to integrate the motion characteristics of multiple vehicles in the same scene, we use the method of combining the reference denoising and multiple residual denoising to improve the model performance and prediction speed. Finally, on this basis, a general trajectory constraint function is introduced, so that the generated trajectories of multiple vehicles will not collide with each other. We perform a rich experimental comparison of various existing methods on the NGSIM dataset and demonstrate that the proposed algorithm achieves a 26% improvement on mAP.
Reliability-Centric Maintenance Planning for Bridge Infrastructure: A Novel Method Based on Improved Electric Fish Optimization
Authors: Wang Yiming , Wang Yuxin , Ni Jianing , Zhang Haodong
Published: November 2024

Bridge infrastructure provides an important effect on contemporary transportation networks, and its upkeep is significant for ensuring public safety and reducing economic impacts. Nevertheless, the aging and degradation of bridge structures present considerable challenges for asset managers, who must navigate the necessity of maintenance against constrained financial resources. Conventional maintenance approaches typically emphasize reactive repairs, which can result in elevated lifecycle expenses and risk structural integrity. This paper introduces an innovative framework aimed at optimizing bridge maintenance expenditures while maintaining structural safety. The proposed methodology incorporates a reliability-based deterioration model, an intervention effect model, a financial model, and an optimization model empowered by an Improved Electric Fish Optimization (IEFO) algorithm. The framework is demonstrated through a case study of a reinforced bridge framework designed according to the standards of Canadian highway bridge design. The findings illustrate that the proposed methodology can substantially lower lifecycle costs by investigating the most economical maintenance strategies, including minor repairs that can postpone the necessity for expensive major interventions. The optimal scenario identified by the IEFO algorithm yielded lower equivalent uniform annual costs in comparison with the traditional scenario focused solely on major repairs. This research advances the field of data-driven maintenance planning for bridge infrastructure, empowering asset managers to make well-informed decisions that effectively balance cost and safety considerations.
Unlocking Intracellular Oncology Targets: The Unique Role of Antibody-Based T-Cell Receptor Mimic (TCRm) Therapeutics in T-Cell Engagers (TCEs) and Antibody-Drug Conjugates (ADCs)
Authors: Molldrem Jeffrey , Zha Dongxing
Published: November 2024

Effectively targeting intracellular tumor-associated proteins presents a formidable challenge in oncology, as they are traditionally considered inaccessible to conventional antibody-based therapies and CAR-T cell therapies. However, recent advancements in antibody engineering have revolutionized this field, offering promising new strategies to combat cancer. This review focuses on the innovative use of T-cell receptor mimic (TCRm) antibodies within the therapeutic frameworks of T-cell engagers (TCE) and antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). TCRm antibodies, designed to recognize peptide-MHC complexes rather than cell surface proteins, integrate the capacity of T-cells to reach intracellular targets with the unique strengths of antibodies. When incorporated into T-cell engaging therapeutics, TCRms redirect T cells to cancer cells, facilitating direct cytotoxicity. In ADCs, TCRm antibodies deliver cytotoxic agents with highly specific targeting to cancer cells, sparing healthy tissues. Together, these antibody-based strategies represent a significant leap forward in oncology, opening new avenues for the treatment of cancers previously deemed untreatable, with other potential applications in autoimmune diseases. This review discusses the mechanisms, clinical advancements, and future prospects of these cutting-edge therapies, highlighting their potential to transform the landscape of cancer treatment.

Authors: López-González María de la Luz , Jiménez-Islas Hugo , Domínguez Campos Carmela , Jarquín Enríquez Lorenzo , Mondragón Rojas Francisco Javier , Flores-Martínez Norma Leticia
Published: November 2024

This study presents an integrated approach that combines the Levenberg–Marquardt (LM) and Luus–Jaakola (LJ) algorithms to enhance parameter estimation for various applications. The LM algorithm, known for its precision in solving non-linear least squares problems, is effectively paired with the LJ algorithm, a robust stochastic optimization method, to improve accuracy and computational efficiency. This hybrid LM-LJ methodology is demonstrated through several case studies, including the optimization of MESH equations in distillation processes, modeling controlled diffusion in biopolymer films, and analyzing heat and mass transfer during the drying of cylindrical quince slices. By overcoming the convergence issues typical of gradient-based methods and performing global searches without initial parameter bounds, this approach effectively handles complex models and closely aligns simulation results with experimental data. These capabilities highlight the versatility of this approach in engineering and environmental modeling, significantly enhancing parameter estimation in systems governed by differential equations.
Ecological Response of Forest Vegetation Communities to Snow Damage: A Meta-Analysis
Authors: Fan Qingzhuo , Yang Haixin , Li Peirong , Duan Yuxin , Guo Donggang , Zhang Quanxi
Published: November 2024

Damage caused by snowfall can result in broken crowns and trunks and even lead to the uprooting of forest trees. Damage or death of forest trees creates forest gaps and alters overall forest demographics, but predicting the exact nature and influence of this damage remains challenging. In general, the effects of various biotic and abiotic factors on snow damage remain understudied. To address this gap in knowledge, we conducted a meta-analysis of existing literature, ultimately screening 38 manuscripts that describe 142 plant species. Our findings indicate that snow damage significantly reduced annual litterfall, Leaf Area Index, canopy density, abundance, and area at breast height when considering plant communities. However, snow damage also tended to significantly increase Shannon’s Diversity Index, Simpson’s Diversity Index, Pielou’s Evenness Index, and diameter at breast height. In addition, at the population level, snow damage was found to significantly reduce density, abundance, and annual litterfall while significantly increasing diameter at breast height. Further, the response of different forest vegetation community characteristics to snow damage is significantly influenced by factors such as forest type, elevation, slope, and aspect.
An Orthologics Study of the Notch Signaling Pathway
Authors: Stein Wilfred Donald
Published: November 2024

The Notch signaling pathway plays a major role in embryological development and in the ongoing life processes of many animals. Its role is to provide cell-to-cell communication in which a Sender cell, bearing membrane-embedded ligands, instructs a Receiver cell, bearing membrane-embedded receptors, to adopt one of two available fates. Elucidating the evolution of this pathway is the topic of this paper, which uses an orthologs approach, providing a comprehensive basis for the study. Using BLAST searches, orthologs were identified for all the 49 components of the Notch signaling pathway. The historical time course of integration of these proteins, as the animals evolved, was elucidated. Insofar as cell-to-cell communication is of relevance only in multicellular animals, it is not surprising that the Notch system became functional only with the evolutionary appearance of Metazoa, the first multicellular animals. Porifera contributed a quarter of the Notch pathway proteins, the Cnidaria brought the total to one-half, but the system reached completion only when humans appeared. A literature search elucidated the roles of the Notch system’s components in modern descendants of the ortholog-contributing ancestors. A single protein, the protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) of the protozoan Ministeria vibrans, was identified as a possible pre-Metazoan ancestor of all three of the Notch pathway proteins, DLL, JAG, and NOTCH. A scenario for the evolution of the Notch signaling pathway is presented and described as the co-option of its components, clade by clade, in a repurposing of genes already present in ancestral unicellular organisms.
Maggots in Medicine: A Narrative Review Discussing the Barriers to Maggot Debridement Therapy and Its Utilisation in the Treatment of Chronic Wounds
Authors: Mumford Zoe , Nigam Yamni
Published: November 2024

Background: There is currently no standardised guidance that supports any particular method of debridement. Maggot debridement therapy (MDT) is often used as a last-resort therapy over more conventional treatments, despite mounting evidence of its benefits. Objectives: This review aimed to critically analyse the systemic and individual barriers to MDT implementation and utilisation. As the primary providers of wound care, discussions are primarily focused on nursing care. Search strategy: The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) was used to conduct a literature search of the studies published between 2012 and 2022 across four databases: CINAHL, Cochrane, British Nursing Index and PubMed. The keywords used for this search were based on the PICO (Population, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome) framework. Twenty-three main articles met the inclusion criteria. All the studies were quality appraised using a risk of bias tool and data were extracted using a predesigned form. The evidence base of the four main themes were discussed: (1) effectiveness of MDT compared to conventional treatments, (2) perceptions and stigma, (3) cost, training and accessibility and (4) side-effects. Conclusions: The findings of this review suggest that MDT is an underused and potentially very effective method of debridement compared to conventional treatments. The identified barriers could be mitigated with relatively low-cost solutions. More high-quality research is needed across all the barriers.

Cage aquaculture, used in modern industrial sturgeon farming, differ from recirculating water supply systems (RAS) by more natural habitat conditions of fish growing, which are optimal for broodstocks development and maintaining and producing fish seeding material and is more economical. The dominant species for sturgeon aquaculture in Russia and throughout the world is Siberian sturgeon, Acipenser baerii Brandt, 1869, adapted to extreme temperature conditions. When this fish was grown at industrial cage aquaculture enterprises in the European North of Russia under natural conditions, the survival rate of the objects was 99%; growth rates exceeded those of sterlet, Russian sturgeon and F1 hybrids of Russian and Siberian sturgeon; the feed ratio was better compared to fish kept in cages in the Southern Federal District. Seven-year-old sturgeons reared in cages under such conditions had a maximum live weight of more than 8 kg, their physiological parameters were better than those of objects kept in a RAS; indices of reproductive system corresponded to the normal values. To increase the efficiency of keeping Siberian sturgeon in cage aquaculture in the extreme conditions of the Northern regions, feed enriched with multifunctional biologically active compounds of natural origin is used. In this production experiment, the basic forage included the feed additive Humiton of peat humic compounds origin at a dose of 25 ml/kg and/or dried garlic powder at a dose of 30 g/kg; both components previously have shown effectiveness in growing juvenile Siberian sturgeon under RAS conditions. In the experiment, all additives showed activity in all assessed indicators, but the greatest effect was observed when using garlic powder or its combination with Humiton additive. The effectiveness of additives is due to adaptogenic and immunomodulatory effects, the ability to favorably influence the function of the digestive system and improve the absorption of feed nutrients.

The article suggests that one of the main directions of developing clinical laboratory service should be the creation of a unified scientific and technical policy, focused on material unification, technical and technological base, represented by equipment and consumables produced mainly by countries friendly to the Republic of Belarus taking into account domestic manufacturers contribution into the process of import substitution. The history of establishing the domestic material, technical and technological base for clinical and laboratory testing, which constitutes the basis for a successful realization of future innovative development strategy in the field of clinical and laboratory products manufacturing, is reflected.

В статье представлен философский анализ развития этнокультурной личности в современном цифровом пространстве на примере представителей чеченского общества. Отмечено, что этническое воспитание возможно лишь при условии межпоколенческого диалога, способствующего взаимообогащению представителей различных возрастов, обмену мнениями и нахождению точек этнокультурного соприкосновения, формированию этнического самосознания и этнокультурной самоидентификации. Проанализировано развитие этнокультурной личности по следующим направлениям: семья (доьзал), общество (юкъаралла), традиции (Iадат), как системообразующих в формировании когнитивной, эмоционально-волевой и поведенческой сферы. Сделан вывод о том, что в условиях цифрового века и искусственного интеллекта необходимо найти механизмы, которые позволят сохранить духовные ценности, составляющие стержень – дух народа, его национальный код – «синмаршо», «яхь», «сий», «оьздангалла».

The article presents a philosophical analysis of the development of an ethnocultural personality in the modern digital space using the example of representatives of Chechen society. It is noted that ethnic education is possible only under the condition of an intergenerational dialogue that promotes mutual enrichment of representatives of different ages, exchange of opinions and finding points of ethno-cultural contact, the formation of ethnic identity and ethno-cultural self-identification. The development of an ethnocultural personality in the following areas is analyzed: family (dozal), society (ukaralla), traditions (Iadat), as system-forming in the formation of the cognitive, emotional, volitional and behavioral spheres. It is concluded that in the conditions of the digital age and artificial intelligence, it is necessary to find mechanisms that will preserve the spiritual values that make up the core – the spirit of the people, its national code – "sinmarsho", "yakh", "siy", "ozdangalla".

The article examines the theoretical and practical aspects of the activity of a teacher's assistant and a child's assistant in the conditions of inclusive education. The historical humane attitude towards persons with limited functional capabilities, which is characteristic of Ukrainian society, has been relied upon. The essence of the inclusive approach is described. The analysis of scientific research in this direction and the existing legislative framework of inclusive education allowed us to conclude that despite the large volume of work on the organization of inclusive education, there are many problems that require immediate resolution. The important question is the division of duties between the teacher, the teacher's assistant and the child's assistant and also the problem of their effective interaction.
Special attention is paid to the description of the path of a child with special educational needs to an inclusive educational institution, since the level of social and pedagogical support in the process of inclusive education depends on the adequate determination of the degree of the child's educational difficulties. It is emphasized that the teacher is the organizer of the pedagogical process in the inclusive class, and he/she is responsible for the effectiveness of the pedagogical process. Documents regulating the work of a teacher's assistant have been analyzed. Based on this analysis, the functional duties of a teacher's assistant are described and the aspects of pedagogical activity that are not included in them are highlighted. The purpose of the activity and the main tasks of the child’s assistant are formulated. Their difference between the tasks of a teacher and a teacher's assistant is emphasized.
It was noted that despite the fact that there are methodological recommendations on the functions and duties of a teacher's assistant and a pupil's assistant (child) developed by the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine, in practice their activities are not properly demarcated, which leads to the emergence of conflict situations, weakening of interaction and reduction the level of effectiveness of the entire educational process in the inclusive class.
Taking into account the aspects of interaction described in this article will increase the productivity of the interaction between the teacher, the teacher's assistant and the child's assistant.
Further research of the problem will be aimed at identifying the effective mechanisms of interaction between the teacher, the teacher's assistant and the child's assistant and specifying the description of the distribution of their functional responsibilities for different nosologies and different levels of educational difficulties of pupils.
