COVID-19-related conspiracy beliefs and their relationship with perceived stress and pre-existing conspiracy beliefs in a Prolific Academic sample: A replication and extension of Georgiou et al. (2020)
Authors: Gaboriaud Aurore , Ferry Thibaud , Dujols Olivier , Lu Yunjiao , Braud Mae , El Mardi Wassila , IJzerman Hans
Published: April 2021

The authors reanalyzed the data and conducted a close replication of a study by Georgiou et al. (2020), who found amongst 660 (reported in abstract) or 640 (reported in participant section) participants that 1) COVID-19 related conspiracy theory beliefs were strongly related to broader conspiracy theory beliefs, that 2) COVID-19 related conspiracy beliefs were higher in those with lower levels of education, and that 3) COVID-19 related conspiracy beliefs were positively (although weakly) correlated with more negative attitudes towards different individual items measuring the government’s response. Finally, Georgiou et al. (2020) found that 4) COVID-19 beliefs were unrelated to self-reported stress. Reanalyzing their data and adjusting the analytical framework, the authors only found that an average of attitudes towards the appropriateness of the government response towards the pandemic was negatively related to conspiracy beliefs in general (not just COVID-19). In the present replication and extension study, random forest analyses show that attitude towards government responses (like the original study), stress (unlike the original study), and attachment avoidance towards the partner (unlike the original study) are the most important predictors of conspiracy beliefs. However, the explained variance of the whole random forest model (3.5-7.5%) was low and model fit of the presently and widely used conspiracy belief inventories was poor. Measurement error is a likely explanation for the differences between the original and replication study and independent development-validation studies therefore need to be conducted to better measure conspiracy beliefs.

The Covid-19 became the world-wide health problem which has affected the all sectors. Educational institutions were also bitterly affected from the uncertain lockdown of Covid-19. The pandemic disturbed the physical class and started the online class. This is the reason to study the effectiveness of online v/s Physical Class and implementation of online class directive 2077 of Tribhuvan University. The study was conducted among 206 students of Shanker Dev Campus (SDC) studying in Master level. The study was based on the descriptive design. Online Google form was designed to collect the data from students. Mean and paired sample t- test was used to analyze the data. Cronbach’s Alpha value was observed to test reliability of collected data. Finding of the result shows that majority of the student’s found physical class was more effective than online class in terms of accessibility, easy to use resources, and importance to enhance teaching-learning habit. Majority of students follow the online class code of conduct provision as per directives. Shanker Dev Campus had not fully adopted the online class directive 2077.  The findings suggested to enhance the quality of online class by managing the required devises and technology. The future researcher can study the impact of online class on academic achievement of students.

Many businesses are collaborating on joint service initiatives in order to cut operational costs and compete for profits. Outsourcing is a cost-reduction strategy used to carry out tasks by service providers or vendors that are typically handled within the company. This research is focused on outsourcing strategies on vendor’s point of view, as many emerging markets continue to struggle to establish a foothold in the international market. The success of IT outsourcing is largely dependent upon the vendor's internal strength, industry-specific environmental factors, and country-specific policies. The respondents were chosen using a snowball sampling technique, and variables were selected from literature review and consulting with industry experts. The survey was conducted within the Kathmandu valley, and quantitative data were collected for the study. Respondents were outsourcing agencies, freelancers, outsourcing consultants and policy makers. The analysis included Structured Equation Modeling and identified six key strategic factors for emerging market: banking priority, growth capacity, intellectual property, country specific specialization, foreign direct investment, and the HR Structure of the vendor. It is suggested that policy makers and IT outsourcing vendors utilize these factors to further strengthen their position in the global outsourcing industry.

Theological and Exegetical Foundations of some Translation Solutions in BTD (Based on the Gospel of Mark)
Authors: Лазаренко Нил
Published: April 2021

Cтатья служит продолжением анализа переводческих решений BTD - немецкого перевода Четвероевангелия, выполненного схиархимандритом Сербской Православной Церкви Иустином (Рауером) и опубликованного в 2018 году Швейцарским библейским обществом. В статье рассматривается ряд мест из Евангелия от Марка. Сравнение BTD с другими современными переводами позволяет выявить места, трудные для грамматического истолкования и адекватного перевода. Русские читатели, не знакомые или мало знакомые с переводами Нового Завета на современные европейские языки, а также с истолкованиями, скрыто или явно присутствующими в этих переводах, получают возможность сравнить различные истолкования друг с другом и взвесить вместе с автором pro et contra для разбираемых мест. Основное внимание в статье уделено проблеме еврейско-арамейского субстрата Евангелия от Марка, текстологическим проблемам, а также грамматическому и семантическому аспектам истолкования греческого текста. В ряде случаев указываются преимущества и недостатки в передаче разбираемых мест существующими русскими переводами.

The article continues the analysis of the new German translation of the Four Gospels in the Byzantine tradition (BTD). This time a number of passages from the Gospel of Mark are considered. Through comparison with other modern Gospel translations difficult passages are identified and discussed. Russian readers get the opportunity to acquaint themselves with interpretations contained (sometimes latently) in the NANTG text and its translations into the West European languages. Special attention is devoted to the problem of Semitic (especially, Aramaic) background of some Markan expressions. Issues of grammar, text-criticism, and theology are discussed. Differences among the modern Russian translations are noted and evaluated. The article shows some strong points of the Byzantine textual tradition in comparison to the NANTG text.
Problematic Issues of Christology in Dialogue with Non-Chalcedonian Churches. Notes on the Second Agreed Statement. Part II
Authors: Юлаев Феодор
Published: April 2021

Публикация заканчивает богословский анализ «Второго согласованного заявления Смешанной комиссии по богословскому диалогу между Православной Церковью и Восточными Православными Церквами» (Шамбези, 1990 г.) («Заявление»). Во второй части рассматривается использование в «Заявлении» выражения: «одна природа Бога Слова воплощенная» (μία φύσις τοῦ Θεοῦ Λόγου σεσαρκωμένη). Обращается внимание на его различное понимание у православных и умеренных монофизитов и отмечается, что в «Заявлении» нет уточнения, в каком именно смысле нужно его понимать. Далее рассматривается вопрос о природных волях и действиях Христа и указывается, что в «Заявлении» в этом вопросе допущен отход от учения VI Вселенского Собора. Затем идёт речь о статусе Вселенских Соборов, обращается внимание на утверждение «Заявления» об общности христологической веры православных и нехалкидонских Церквей и на выраженную в нём готовность отменить древние соборные анафемы. Отмечается необоснованность и недопустимость этих утверждений ввиду противоречия с Преданием Православной Церкви. Наконец, делается общий вывод о неудовлетворительности «Заявления» и о невозможности использования его в качестве основы для богословского диалога.

The publication completes the theological analysis of the «Second Agreed Statement of the Mixed Commission on Theological Dialogue between the Orthodox Church and the Eastern Orthodox Churches» (Chambesi, 1990) («Statement»). The second part examines the use in the «Statement» of the expression: «one nature of God the Word incarnate» (μία φύσις τοῦ Θεοῦ Λόγου σεσαρκωμένη). Attention is drawn to its different understanding among Orthodox and moderate Monophysites, and it is noted that the «Statement» does not specify in what sense it should be understood. Further, the question of the natural wills and actions of Christ is considered and it is indicated that in the «Statement» in this matter a departure from the teachings of the VI Ecumenical Council is allowed. Then there is a talk about the status of the Ecumenical Councils, attention is drawn to the declaration of the «Statement» about the common Christological faith of the Orthodox and non-Chalcedonian Churches and to the readiness expressed in it to abolish the ancient council anathemas. The groundlessness and inadmissibility of these statements is noted due to the contradiction with the Tradition of the Orthodox Church. Finally, a general conclusion is made about the unsatisfactory nature of the «Statement» and about the impossibility of using it as a basis for theological dialogue.
The Doctrine of St. Nicholas Cabasilas on the Eucharist as Sacrifice
Authors: Елиманов Вадим Евгеньевич
Published: April 2021

Данная статья представляет собой попытку системной реконструкции учения св. Николая Кавасилы о Евхаристии как Жертве. В труде св. Николая «Изъяснение Божественной литургии» Евхаристия предстаёт как Богочеловеческая Жертва, в которой Церковь в целом и каждый христианин в частности под видом даров (хлеба и вина) приносит саму себя, свою жизнь в жертву Богу. Бог в ответ на это дароприношение подаёт Саму Жизнь, Самого Себя. Важным открытием стало определение смысловой связи между этапами совершения Евхаристической Жертвы, этапами совершения ветхозаветных жертв и этапами домостроительства спасения, совершённого Христом. Было установлено, что всякая жертва совершается в момент изменения состояния: когда «дар» (δῶρον) становится «жертвой» (θυσία). Если Голгофская Жертва совершилась через распятие, когда Христос из «Дара» Богу стал «Жертвой» Ему, а ветхозаветные кровавые жертвы совершались через заклание, когда жертвенное животное из дара становилось жертвой Богу; то Евхаристическая Жертва совершается через преложение (μεταβολή), когда дары (хлеб и вино) становятся истинной Жертвой, то есть Телом и Кровью Агнца Христа.

This article is an attempt at a systematic reconstruction of the doctrine of st. Nicholas Cabasilas on the Eucharist as Sacrifice. In the work of st. Nicholas «Commentary on the Divine Liturgy», the Eucharist appears as a God-Human Sacrifice, in which the Church as a whole, and every Christian in particular, under the guise of gifts (bread and wine), offers itself, its life as a sacrifice to God. God responds to this gift and gives back Life itself, Himself. An important discovery was the definition of the semantic relationship between the stages of the Eucharistic Sacrifice, the stages of the Old Testament sacrifices, and the stages of The Economy of Salvation, accomplished by Christ. It was established that every sacrifice is made at the moment of state change: when a «gift» (δῶρον) becomes a «sacrifice» (θυσία). If the Sacrifice of Calvary was made by crucifixion, when Christ from the «Gift» to God became the «Sacrifice» to Him, and blood sacrifices in the Old Testament were made by slaughter, when the sacrificial animal from the gift became the sacrifice to God; then the Eucharistic Sacrifice is performed by the transformation (μεταβολή), when the gifts (bread and wine) become the true Sacrifice, i.e., the Body and Blood of the Lamb of Christ.

В Российской империи Санкт-Петербургские духовные школы занимали передовую позицию в области богословской науки, богословского образования и издательства научной православной периодики. Старейший российский богословский журнал «Христианское чтение», основанный ещё в 1821 г. и отмечающий ныне 200-летний юбилей, выступал в роли флагмана отечественной богословской науки. Однако в 1918 г. захватившее власть в стране богоборческое большевистское правительство учинило беспощадный разгром всей церковной жизни, и живая традиция православной учёности прервалась в России на долгие десятилетия.

In the Russian Empire, St. Petersburg theological schools were at the forefront of theological science, theological education and the publishing of scholarly Orthodox periodicals. The oldest Russian theological journal, Christian Reading, founded as early as 1821 and now celebrating its 200th anniversary, was the flagship of national theological science. However, in 1918 the Bolshevik government, which seized power in the country, carried out a merciless destruction of all church life, and the living tradition of Orthodox scholarship was interrupted in Russia for many decades.
Low incidence of milk fistula with continued breastfeeding following radiologic and surgical interventions on the lactating breast
Authors: Johnson Helen M. , Mitchell Katrina B.
Published: April 2021

BACKGROUND: Milk fistula is a potential complication of radiologic and surgical procedures on the lactating breast, though its incidence is unknown. Some postulate that larger defects and/or closer proximity to the nipple increase the risk of fistula. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to estimate the incidence of milk fistula and characterize risk factors in patients who continued breastfeeding after surgical or radiological procedures. METHODS: A retrospective cohort analysis of pregnant or lactating women treated at a multidisciplinary breast clinic from July 2016 through August 2019 was performed. Demographic and clinical variables were analyzed using ANOVA and Pearson’s Chi-square. RESULTS: Two pregnant and 43 lactating patients underwent 71 interventions. The incidence of milk fistula within one week of intervention was 1.4%. One fistula was diagnosed six days after retroareolar abscess drainage. The fistula closed successfully with continued breastfeeding. When categorized by the caliber of the most invasive intervention (large-caliber: mass excision, n = 7; medium-caliber: percutaneous drain insertion, n = 18; small-caliber: stab incision, aspiration, core needle biopsy, n = 20), patients were similar in age, race/ethnicity, weeks postpartum, and frequency of central versus peripheral interventions. The low incidence of fistula prevented quantitative evaluation of potential risk factors. CONCLUSIONS: Milk fistula is a rare occurrence following radiologic or surgical breast interventions performed during pregnancy or lactation. Indicated procedures should not be deferred, but periareolar approaches should be avoided when possible. Cessation of lactation is not mandatory for fistula closure, and continued breastfeeding should be recommended.
Sentinel lymph node biopsy in breast cancer guided by CT lymphography; History, evolution and current applications
Authors: Hamdy Omar , Farouk Omar , El-Badrawy Adel , Denewer Adel , Setit Ahmed
Published: April 2021

Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) has efficiently replaced axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) in axillary staging in node-negative breast cancer patients. Dual sentinel lymph node (SLN) localization using radioisotopes and blue dye is the standard technique for SLN mapping. Yet, nuclear medicine facilities are not widely available worldwide. In Japan, Computed tomography lymphography (CTLG) is presented as an SLN mapping technique which was first suggested in 2003 by Suga et al. Multiple subsequent studies confirmed the efficacy of CTLG in SLN mapping in breast cancer. Further applications of the technique followed; such as prediction of SLN metastasis using CTLG, the use of CTLG guided SLN biopsy after neoadjuvant therapy, video-assisted CTLG guided SLN biopsy, the use of real-time virtual sonography with 3-D CTLG, and preoperative localization of the CTLG mapped SLN using either real-time virtual sonography (RVS) guided Indocyanine green (ICG) injection or its marking using liquid charcoal and silver wire and the use of SPIO enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for prediction of metastasis in SLNs detected by CTLG. This efficacy and variable applications open the door for conducting wide-scale randomized controlled trials to suggest using CTLG as an efficient alternative for the use of radioisotopes in SLN mapping in breast cancer patients, especially in low and middle-income countries.

Background: Previous research has identified a small subgroup of older adults that maintain a high level of cognitive functioning well into advanced age. Investigation of those with superior cognitive performance (SCP) for their age is important, as age-related decline has previously been thought to be inevitable. Objective: Preservation of cortical thickness and volume was evaluated in 76 older adults with SCP and 100 typical older adults (TOAs) assessed up to five times over six years. Methods: Regions of interest (ROIs) found to have been associated with super-aging status (a construct similar to SCP status) in previous literature were investigated, followed by a discovery phase analyses of additional regions. SCPs were aged 70 + at baseline, scoring at/above normative memory (CVLT-II) levels for demographically similar individuals aged 30–44 years old, and in the unimpaired range for all other cognitive domains over the course of the study. Results: In linear mixed models, following adjustment for multiple comparisons, there were no significant differences between rates of thinning or volume atrophy between SCPs and TOAs in previously identified ROIs, or the discovery phase analyses. With only amyloid-β negative individuals in the analyses, again there were no significant differences between SCPs and TOAs. Conclusion: The increased methodological rigor in classifying groups, together with the influence of cognitive reserve, are discussed as potential factors accounting for our findings as compared to the extant literature on those with superior cognitive performance for their age.

Background: Mild behavioral impairment (MBI) has been proposed as an early manifestation of dementia. The Mild Behavioral Impairment Checklist (MBI-C) may help identify MBI in prodromal and preclinical dementia. Objective: The study aimed to evaluate the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of MBI-C in mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and mild Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and to explore the structure of the five factors of the MBI-C in Chinese culture. Methods: Sixty dyads of MCI and mild AD (MCI, n = 33; mild AD, n = 35) were recruited. The informants completed the MBI-C and Neuropsychiatric Inventory Questionnaire (NPI-Q) and were interviewed for clinician rating of the NPI. The Cronbach’s coefficient was used to measure the structural reliability of the MBI-C. The criterion-validity was evaluated with the correlation coefficient between the MBI-C and the total scores of NPI-Q and NPI. Exploratory factor analysis was conducted to investigate the structure of the MBI-C. Results: The Cronbach’s α coefficient was 0.895. The MBI-C total score was positively correlated with all five domains (r = 0.577∼0.840). The total score of MBI-C was significantly correlated with the total scores of NPI-Q (r = 0.714) and NPI (r = 0.749). Similarly, the five domain scores of MBI-C were significantly correlated with the factor and total scores of NPI-Q (r = 0.312∼0.673) and NPI (r = 0.389∼0.673). The components of each factor in Chinese version of MBI-C were slightly different from those of the a priori defined domains (χ2 = 1818.202, df = 496, p < 0.001). Conclusion: The Chinese version of MBI-C has good reliability and validity, and can be used to evaluate the psychological and behavioral changes in MCI and mild AD.
Intelligent evaluation of trade efficiency of agricultural products between China and ASEAN: An stochastic frontier approach with noise reduction
Authors: Wang Shuaiwen
Published: April 2021

As the world’s largest free trade area among developing countries, the China-ASEAN Free Trade Area has gone through 15 years, and the China-ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) Free Trade Area cooperation framework with tariff reduction as the core has diminished incentive effects on regional trade, the “21st Century Maritime Silk Road” strategy provide new opportunities for the upgrading and development of the China-ASEAN Free Trade Area. Based on the stochastic frontier gravity model, the random disturbance term was introduced to overcome the inevitable noise problem of macro statistical data, the trade efficiency of agricultural products between China and ASEAN were estimated in this study. The result shows that the potential for trade promotion between China and ASEAN countries is fully tapped. Based on this, it is proposed to strengthen infrastructure construction and smooth maritime trade channels with the help of the “One Road” platform. Strengthen communication and dialogue to weaken the impact of non-tariff barriers on trade, and use the Shanghai Free Trade Zone test plot to enhance the international competitiveness of Chinese agricultural product trade.
Generalized roughness of fuzzy substructures in quantales with respect to soft relations
Authors: Qurashi Saqib Mazher , Kanwal Rani Sumaira , Shabir Muhammad , Ali Kashan
Published: April 2021

In this work, we have proposed a new relationship among rough set, soft set and quantales with the help of soft compatible relation. This typical relationship is used to approximate the fuzzy substructures in quantales in association with soft compatible relations by using aftersets and foresets. This type of approximation is extended notation of rough quantales, rough fuzzy subquantales and soft subquantales. We have corroborated this work by considering some test examples containing soft compatible relations over quantales. Moreover, by using soft compatible relations, we will describe the relationship between upper (lower) generalized rough fuzzy soft substructures of quantale and the upper (lower) approximations of their homomorphic images with the help of weak quantale homomorphism. The comparison of this type approximations and their results affirms the superiority of our new approximation method over current methods on the topic.
Second compression for pixelated images under edge-based compression algorithms: JPEG-LS as an example
Authors: Al-Khayyat Kamal , Al-Shaikhli Imad , Al-Hagery Mohammed
Published: April 2021

This paper details the examination of a particular case of data compression, where the compression algorithm removes the redundancy from data, which occurs when edge-based compression algorithms compress (previously compressed) pixelated images. The newly created redundancy can be removed using another round of compression. This work utilized the JPEG-LS as an example of an edge-based compression algorithm for compressing pixelated images. The output of this process was subjected to another round of compression using a more robust but slower compressor (PAQ8f). The compression ratio of the second compression was, on average,  18%, which is high for random data. The results of the second compression were superior to the lossy JPEG. Under the used data set, lossy JPEG needs to sacrifice  10% on average to realize nearly total lossless compression ratios of the two-successive compressions. To generalize the results, fast general-purpose compression algorithms (7z, bz2, and Gzip) were used too.

This paper aims to extend the Interval-valued Intuitionistic Hesitant Fuzzy Set to a Generalized Interval-valued Hesitant Intuitionistic Fuzzy Soft Set (GIVHIFSS). Definition of a GIVHIFSS and some of their operations are defined, and some of their properties are studied. In these GIVHIFSSs, the authors have defined complement, null, and absolute. Soft binary operations like operations union, intersection, a subset are also defined. Here is also verified De Morgan’s laws and the algebraic structure of GIVHIFSSs. Finally, by using the comparison table, a different approach to GIVHIFSS based decision-making is presented.

Published: April 2021

The 2-metric resolvability is an extension of metric resolvability in graphs having several applications in intelligent systems for example network optimization, robot navigation and sensor networking. Rotationally symmetric graphs are important in intelligent networks due to uniform rate of data transformation to all nodes. In this article, 2-metric dimension of rotationally symmetric plane graphs Rn, Sn and Tn is computed and found to be independent of the number of vertices.
Scheduling parallel-batching processing machines problem with learning and deterioration effect in fuzzy environment
Authors: Wang Rui , Jia Zhaohong , Li Kai
Published: April 2021

In this paper, a problem of scheduling jobs with different sizes and fuzzy processing times (FPT) on non-identical parallel batch machines to minimize makespan is investigated. Moreover, the processing time (PT) of each batch is subject to the location-based learning and total-PT-based deterioration effect. Since this is an NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem, an improved intelligent algorithm based on fruit fly optimization algorithm (IFOA) is proposed. To verify the performance of the algorithm, the IFOA is compared with three state-of-the-art algorithms. The comparative results demonstrate that the proposed IFOA outperforms the other compared algorithms.
Kinesio tape in paediatric physiotherapy: A content analysis of practitioner experience
Authors: Smart Claire , Murphy Kylie , Andrews Kristen , Gregory Donalee
Published: April 2021

INTRODUCTION: Kinesio tape (KT) is an emerging tool in paediatric physiotherapy. A small body of research suggests KT is efficacious with some children, but clinical guidelines are not yet available. The aim of this study was to gather physiotherapists’ practices and experiences using KT with children. The focus was on why, where, how, and how long physiotherapists use KT with children, and the outcomes they observe, to guide future experimental research. METHOD: Nine Australian physiotherapists, each with at least two years of experience using KT with children, were recruited. All nine physiotherapists completed a largely open-ended online survey, and three of these physiotherapists participated in a brief follow-up telephone interview. Basic content analysis was conducted. RESULTS: The physiotherapists’ practices and experience with KT largely related to four themes: (1) taping for muscle activation; (2) gait and posture outcomes; (3) child tolerance limiting effectiveness; and (4) inconsistent application methods and treatment durations. CONCLUSION: Physiotherapists in this study used KT to serve a variety of purposes, it was mainly considered beneficial for improving gait and posture. However, there was little agreement regarding how to apply it, for how long, and the exact nature of its benefits. Empirical research is also lacking on these questions. The effectiveness of KT as an adjunct therapy for improving children’s posture and gait warrants further investigation. Research comparing specific taping application methods and durations will be valuable in guiding physiotherapists’ practice.
