Published: October 2022

Role play is one of the core creative processes in theatrical performance. Play leads to positive emotions in both children and adults. Role-play, a distinctive type of play is used in several types of therapeutic interventions to increase social competence as well as for other benefits. The highly individualized use of role-play in psychotherapy, drama therapy and psychodrama is effective but not generalizable. In the present study we developed a standardized controlled procedure to promote role-play in 38 participants, and we monitored its impact on affect, anxiety, prosocial attitudes, and salivary oxytocin dynamics. Compared to the control condition where participants participated as selves, role-play significantly increased perceived levels of positive affect and prosocial attitudes and decreased self-reported levels of anxiety. Basal salivary oxytocin levels predicted gains in positive affect following the role-play procedure. Our study points to standardized role-play as a mean to reduce anxiety, and to increase sociability and positive affect. Possible mechanisms of how role-play induces the observed changes in affect and attitudes are discussed.

What makes math difficulties so common in children with dyslexia? The current study aimed to identify behavioral and neurocognitive factors associated with co-occurring reading disability (RD) and math disability (MD). We tested reading, math, and cognitive skills in a sample of 86 children in 3rd–7th grade (ages 9-13) with RD. Within this sample, 35% of children had RD only with no weakness in math, 43% had co-occurring RD+MD, and over 20% demonstrated a possible vulnerability in math. We investigated whether RD-Only and RD+MD students differed behaviorally in their phonological awareness, reading skills, or executive function, as well as in the brain mechanisms underlying word reading and visuospatial working memory using fMRI. We found that the additional difficulty with math in children with RD was unrelated to differences in behavioral or brain measures of phonological awareness related to speech or print. However, the RD+MD group performed significantly worse than the RD-Only group on multiple measures of executive function, including working memory and processing speed. The RD+MD group also exhibited reduced brain activations for visuospatial working memory relative to the RD-Only group. Continuous analyses along a spectrum of math ability revealed that greater math difficulties were associated with reduced activation in the visual cortex. These converging neuro-behavioral findings suggest that poor executive function in general, and differences in visuospatial working memory in particular, are associated with co-occurring MD among children with RD.
APPROACHES OF THE FRANCO-GERMAN TANDEM TO INTERACTION WITH TURKEY IN THE HOTBEDS OF INSTABILITY IN THE MEDITERRANEAN
Authors: Timofeev Pavel , Khorolskaya Maria
Published: October 2022

The article analyzes the position of the informal EU leaders - France and Germany - on two long and serious crises - Libyan and Syrian, which since the «Arab Spring» have had a direct and destabilizing impact on the EU security. Although the latest concept paper «Strategic Compass», adopted by the EU in March 2022, notes that European countries will seek to resolve conflicts, including with the involvement of Turkey, so far the EU member states have not developed a unified approach to the problem, nor to their interaction with Ankara. In this regard, the authors analyze in detail the positions of Berlin and Paris towards relations with Ankara in general, as well as in the Libyan and Syrian crises, highlighting the common and specific for the French and German approaches. The article shows both the converging factors and the main problems complicating the relations between France and Germany, on the one hand, and Turkey, on the other. It is noted that the formation of the approach of each of the countries of the tandem is influenced by the geographical factor and various tools typical for the foreign policy tradition of France and Germany. Finally, it is concluded that Franco-German tandem does not have a unified line in the conflicts examined, although the two countries’ approaches are not always at odds with each other. It was revealed that despite the general disagreement with Turkey’s independent policy in the region, France and Germany are not ready to take forceful measures to make Ankara to align with the EU/NATO positions. In the near future, it is unlikely that both powers will be able to work out a coordinated line of interaction with Turkey in the centers of instability in the Mediterranean.
BRITAIN’S FOURTH AFGHAN WAR
Authors: Novikova Olga
Published: October 2022

In the collective memory of the British, there was a perception that Afghanistan was a space that could not be colonized: a space that limited British power and influence. Nevertheless, selectively using its experience of colonial warfare, Britain invaded Afghanistan for the fourth time, this time as part of a multilateral force. In analyzing the performance of Britain’s counterinsurgency mission in Afghanistan, Western sources have most often favored identifying tactical and operational failures of military or civilian structures rather than addressing the fundamental shortcomings of the operation in Afghanistan. Britain has joined the efforts of the «collective West» in Afghanistan, primarily to demonstrate to Washington that London remains its most reliable and most significant military ally. Over time, attachment to the United States went so far as to atrophy Britain’s ability to develop its own national strategy. Western countries have replaced the fight against al-Qaeda who carried out terrorist attacks in the United States with the fight against the Taliban insurgency. The English narrative used the category of moral obligation more often than national interest. Great Britain demanded that Afghanistan turn into a liberal-democratic state. The troops not only introduced foreign Western ideas of democracy and the rule of law, they also tried to expand the power of the central government in Kabul, a government that was not accepted by the insurgents and generally lacked legitimacy among Afghans. The continued presence of Western forces in Afghanistan has generated hatred and initiated jihad.

Published: October 2022

Aim: To evaluate the dentist’s knowledge, attitudes, and barriers towards silver diamine fluoride (SDF) in Tricity (Panchkula, Chandigarh, Mohali), India. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted using a selfadministered online questionnaire among 422 dental practitioners in Tricity (Panchkula, Chandigarh, Mohali), India from 25th August 2021 to 10th September 2021. The outcome variable of the study were knowledge, attitude, and barriers toward Silver Diamine Fluoride. A pretested questionnaire on a 5-point Likert scale was used. Results: A total of 55% of respondents strongly agreed and agreed that SDF is a good treatment option for primary teeth that are not in the esthetic zone. The barrier to its usage is being not readily available commercially, with the highest score of 48%. Conclusion: Increased efforts in SDF education may lead to greater use of this innovative approach to the management of cavitated carious lesions. The most cited barrier to the use of SDF is tooth staining associated with arresting caries.

The problems that occur are a lot of data contained in village financial institutions, which raises difficulties in terms of village budgeting and expenditure, so it is necessary to implement an a priori algorithm for data on village income and expenditure budgets. The method that will be used in this study is Apriori by analyzing the village income and expenditure budget data. The formation of association rules is obtained by determining the minimum support value of 2% and minimum confidence of 50%. The association rule with the smallest support score and the highest value of confidence, which is 100%, becomes the rule chosen for the reference of bundling strategies in village expenditure items. Apriori Algorithms can be applied to support the Village Expenditure Budget Item. Planning and spending of the Village Budget Item is greatly assisted by the application of this Priori algorithm so that the effectiveness is expected to be increased. The application of the Apriori algorithm which is done through software designed has been shown to show the appropriate results. This is proven by calculating the value of support and confidence which shows the same results.
In search of COVID-19: The ability of biodetection canines to detect COVID-19 odours from clinical samples
Authors: Charles Marthe , Eckbo Eric , Zurberg Teresa , Woznow Tracey , Aksu Lâle , Gómez Navas Leonardo , Wang Y , Bryce Elizabeth
Published: October 2022

BACKGROUND: COVID-19 continues to be a public health concern and the demand for fast and reliable screening tests remains. SARS-CoV-2 infection in humans generates a specific volatile organic compound signature; this ‘volatilome’ could be used to deploy highly trained canine scent detection teams if they could reliably detect odours from infected individuals. METHODS: Two dogs were trained over 19 weeks to discriminate between the odours produced by breath, sweat, and gargle specimens collected from SARS-CoV-2 infected and uninfected individuals. Third party validation was conducted in a randomized double-blinded controlled manner using fresh odours obtained from different patients within 10 days of their first positive SARS-CoV-2 molecular result. RESULTS: Cumulatively, the dogs completed 299 training sessions on odours from 108 unique participants. Validation was conducted over 2 days with 120 new odours. Twenty-four were odours collected from SARS-CoV-2 positive individuals (8 gargle, 8 sweat, and 8 breath); 21 were from SARS-CoV-2 negative individuals (5 gargle, 8 sweat, and 8 breath) and the remaining 75 were odours that the dogs could have associated with the target odour during training. The dogs were able to identify odours from positive specimens with an overall sensitivity of 100% and a specificity of 87.5%. Considering a community prevalence of 10%, the combined negative predictive value of the dogs was 100% and the positive predictive value was 47.1%. CONCLUSIONS: Multiple dogs can be trained to accurately detect SARS-CoV-2 positive individuals. Future research is required to determine how and when canine scent detection teams should be deployed.
State Takeover of School Systems and Within-District Fiscal Equity
Authors: Bleiberg Joshua F. , Lyon Melissa Arnold , Schueler Beth E.
Published: October 2022

State takeovers of school districts typically involve dramatic changes to the workforce in the targeted school system and are often undertaken for the express purpose of improving a school system’s finances. However, little is known about how takeover affects education spending, particularly the distribution of funds across schools within districts. This has important implications for human resources because inequitable spending exacerbates teacher quality shortages for schools that serve marginalized students. We capitalize on a novel source of school-level education spending data for 2018–2019 to examine how takeover influences overall spending, equality of spending across schools within districts, and race-, ethnicity-, and class-based gaps in spending across schools. We do this for a national sample of 24 districts taken over between 2013 and 2019 matched to a set of untreated comparison districts with a high propensity for takeover. We find that state takeover is associated with higher levels of education spending, and that the greater funding promotes racial and ethnic fiscal equity but does not increase income-based school finance equity. Importantly, average increases in school spending are likely too small to substantially affect educational inequality. Therefore, takeover does not seem to be a sufficient mechanism for meaningfully mitigating within-district finance inequity.

Selama pandemi Covid-19, siswa harus belajar online dari rumah. Namun, kegiatan pembelajaran online kurang efektif dari rumah karena kurangnya perhatian dan kontrol orang tua dalam mendampingi anaknya selama proses pembelajaran. Oleh karena itu, kegiatan pendampingan pembelajaran informal bagi siswa PAUD, TK, SD, dan SMP dirasa penting untuk dilakukan secara offline (tatap muka). Tujuan kegiatan pendampingan pembelajaran informal adalah untuk mendukung siswa pra sekolah, TK, SD, dan SMP agar mampu memahami mata pelajaran yang diberikan oleh guru di sekolah. Metode pelaksanaan yang digunakan adalah dengan mengumpulkan beberapa siswa yang tinggal dekat dengan lokasi yang sama atau datang ke rumah siswa dan membimbing mereka dalam proses pembelajaran, terutama mengajar mata pelajaran. Dalam hal ini kegiatan pembelajaran tetap memperhatikan protokol kesehatan. Hasil kegiatan bimbingan belajar menunjukkan bahwa kegiatan ini telah memberikan dampak yang baik untuk meningkatkan pemahaman siswa terhadap mata pelajaran di sekolah.

Dalam konteks secara global politik kini telah dikagetkan dengan munculnya radikalisasi dalam beragama. Masalah ini juga dihadapaioleh negara Indonesia meskipun Indonesia merupakan negara demokrasi. Namun, beberapa waktu terakhir demokrasi di Indonesia tampak memprihatinka. Hal ini ditandai dengan munculnya peristiwa kekerasan yang mengatasnakan agama, peristiwa terror bom, dan sebagainya. Peristiwa-peristiwa ini dinilai menjadi permasalahan yang serius. Dapat kita ketahui bahwa kekerasan yang mengatasnamakan agama sudah dan terjadi pada masa peradaban manusia yang  masih berada di fasekebiadaban manusia. Kekerasan ini dipicu dari adanya perbedaan antar agaman dalam segi perbedaan kitab sucinya. Kesalahpahaman dalam mengartikan perbedaan ini melahirkan adanya beberappa fanatisme sekterian yang semakin merebak. Salah pemahaman ini berakibat pada pemikiran setiap pemeluk agama lain dalam berpandangan terhadap negara lainnya. Sikap dan perilaku seperti ini cenderung seperti melecehkan keberadaan agama lain  Radikalisme tersebut tidak bisa di biarkan karena akan mengganggu ketentraman masyarakat. Untuk itu pemerintah dan segenap masyarakat harus berupaya menanggulangi faham  rdikal ini dengan segenap upaya. Di antaranya yaitu yang bersifat kemasyarakatan. Karena akan langsung di rasakan dan dapat langsung kepada terarah potensi potensi di masyarakat yang akan menuju pada faham radikal tanpa harus menunjuk siapa siapa yang mempunyai pemikiran radikal. Upaya menangkal radikalisme yaitu dengan (1) re-edukasi (memahami Islam lebih utuh); (2) kampanye ukhuwwah islāmiyyah dan anti radikalisme dengan cara memasukkannya melalui kegiatan kegiatan yang ada di masyarakat khususnya yang berhaluan keagamaan

Published: October 2022

Patients with lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) may experience neuropathic symptoms, such as back pain, radiating pain, and neurogenic claudication. Although the long-term outcomes of both nonsurgical and surgical treatments are similar, surgery may provide shortterm benefits, including improved symptoms and lower risk of falling. Decompression is mainly used for surgical treatment, and depending on the decompression degree and associated instability, combination therapy may be given. Minimally invasive surgery has been demonstrated to produce excellent results in the treatment of LSS. Thus, an approach aimed at understanding the overall pathophysiology and treatment methods of LSS is expected to have a better therapeutic effect.
Diagnostic Technology for Spine Pathology
Authors: Kim Gang-Un , Park Wook Tae , Chang Min Cheol , Lee Gun Woo
Published: October 2022

Diagnostic techniques for spinal pathologies have been developed in accordance with advances in technology. Accurate diagnosis of spinal pathology is essential for appropriate management of spinal diseases. Since the development of X-rays in 1895 and computed tomography (CT) in 1967, several diagnostic imaging modalities have been utilized for detecting spinal pathologies, including radiography, CT, magnetic resonance imaging, and radionuclide imaging. In addition to diagnostic imaging technologies, electrodiagnostic tests, including electromyography and nerve conduction studies, play a significant role as diagnostic tools, as spinal diseases are mostly profoundly associated with pathologies of the neural structures, such as the spinal cord and nerve root, and extent of injury at the structure cannot be adequately detected by conventional imaging techniques. In patient-specific treatment strategies, usage of diagnostic modalities is of great importance; thus, we should be aware of the basic details and approaches of the different diagnostic modalities. In this review, the authors discuss the details of the technologies that aid in the diagnosis of spinal pathologies.

Young patients with hypothalamic hamartomas (HHs) often present with intractable epilepsy. Currently there are no established management guidelines for HH. The authors retrospectively reviewed their single-institution experience to delineate the role of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS).

METHODS

Seven patients with HHs (4 females; median age 13.7 years, range 2.5–25 years) with no prior resection underwent SRS between 1987 and 2022. The clinical history, epilepsy profile, radiographic findings, and neurological outcomes were characterized. HH topographical types were classified according to the Régis classification. Outcome measures included Engel seizure classification, HH response, and the need for additional surgical interventions.

RESULTS

All patients had Engel class IV epilepsy. A Leksell Gamma Knife was used to deliver a median margin dose of 18 Gy (range 16–20 Gy) to a median hamartoma volume of 0.37 cm3 (range 0.20–0.89 cm3). Seizure reduction was confirmed in 6 patients, and 2 patients had regression of their hamartoma. Two patients underwent resection and/or laser interstitial thermal therapy after SRS. At follow-up, 1 patient was seizure free, 4 patients achieved Engel class II, 1 patient had Engel class III, and 1 patient had Engel class IV seizure outcomes.

CONCLUSIONS

SRS as the initial management option for HH was associated with a low risk of adverse effects. In this institutional series reviewing small-volume HHs treated with SRS, no adverse radiation effect was detected, and the majority of patients experienced seizure reduction. SRS should be considered as the first-line treatment for seizure control in patients with small-volume HHs.

Published: October 2022

BACKGROUND: The bulk metallic glass (BMG), Pd79Ag3.5P6Si9.5Ge2, has a high fracture toughness and has been found to accommodate post-yield stress, unlike most other BMG. Moreover, due to its greater noble gas composition it has a intrinsic corrosion resistance, ideal for dental and orthopedic implants. OBJECTIVE: This present study aimed to evaluate the in vivo application of Pd79Ag3.5P6Si9.5Ge2 in a large translational sheep model to assess its efficacy to be utilized as an endosteal device. METHODS: Twelve implants in the form of cylindrical rods (3 mm in diameter) were produced through rapid quenching. Each sheep (n = 12) received one osteotomy in the mandibular region using rotary instrumentation, which was filled with Pd79Ag3.5P6Si9.5Ge2. After 6- and 24-weeks the animals were euthanized, and samples collected en bloc to conduct histomorphometric analysis. The degree of osseointegration were assessed through bone-to-implant contact (BIC). RESULTS: All samples revealed favorable BIC along with with fibrous connective tissue layers at both 6- and 24-weeks. Bone along with interfacial remodeling was observed in proximity with the metallic glass surface at 6 weeks with higher degrees of bone organization being observed at the later healing time, 24 weeks. CONCLUSIONS: The synthesized BMG, given its unique combination of toughness and strength, revealed potential to serve as an alternative to commonly used Ti alloys.
Introduction to Probabilistic Concurrent Systems
Authors: Abbes Samy
Published: October 2022

The first part of the paper is an introduction to the theory of probabilistic concurrent systems under a partial order semantics. Key definitions and results are given and illustrated on examples. The second part includes contributions. We introduce deterministic concurrent systems as a subclass of concurrent systems. Deterministic concurrent system are “locally commutative” concurrent systems. We prove that irreducible and deterministic concurrent systems have a unique probabilistic dynamics, and we characterize these systems by means of their combinatorial properties.

Some Basic Techniques Allowing Petri Net Synthesis: Complexity and Algorithmic Issues
Authors: Devillers Raymond , Tredup Ronny
Published: October 2022

In Petri net synthesis we ask whether a given transition system A can be implemented by a Petri net N. Depending on the level of accuracy, there are three ways how N can implement A: an embedding, the least accurate implementation, preserves only the diversity of states of A; a language simulation already preserves exactly the language of A; a realization, the most accurate implementation, realizes the behavior of A exactly. However, whatever the sought implementation, a corresponding net does not always exist. In this case, it was suggested to modify the input behavior – of course as little as possible. Since transition systems consist of states, events and edges, these components appear as a natural choice for modifications. In this paper we show that the task of converting an unimplementable transition system into an implementable one by removing as few states or events or edges as possible is NP-complete –regardless of what type of implementation we are aiming for; we also show that the corresponding parameterized problems are W[2]-hard, where the number of removed components is considered as the parameter; finally, we show there is no c-approximation algorithm (with a polynomial running time) for neither of these problems, for every constant c ≥ 1.

Authors: Huang Xiaoqian , Hu Yanrong , Liu Hongjiu
Published: October 2022

Most methods for evaluating a company’s financial performance currently focus on scoring, when there is a large amount of data, it is difficult to distinguish the company’s financial status. To cluster and predict the financial performance of companies, a hybrid model based on the fuzzy C-means clustering algorithm (FCM) and convolutional neural network (CNN) is proposed in this paper. Pearson correlation analysis was first performed on the indicators to ensure that they are not correlated with each other and to avoid indicator redundancy. The entropy method determined the weight of each index and ensured the high validity of the selected indicators. Then, FCM clustering was carried out, and the performance of each company was clustered according to the indexes after data preprocessing with clustering labels. The processed data and labels were introduced into CNN to predict the level. The empirical study showed that the FCM-CNN model was superior to other machine learning models, which proved that this model has better clustering and forecasting ability, and could be applied to the prediction of corporate financial performance.

Authors: Liu Zhongpu , Liu Jianjuan
Published: October 2022

For the issues of the ant colony algorithm (ACO) to solving the problems in mobile robot path planning, such as the slow optimization speed and the redundant paths in planning results, a high-precision improved ant colony algorithm (IPACO) with fast optimization and compound prediction mechanism is proposed. Firstly, aiming at maximizing the possibility of optimal node selection in the process of path planning, a composite optimal node prediction model is introduced to improve the state transition function. Secondly, a pheromone model with initialize the distribution and “reward or punishment” update mechanism is used to updates the global pheromone concentration directionally, which increases the pheromone concentration of excellent path nodes and the heuristic effect; Finally, a prediction-backward mechanism to deal with the “deadlock” problem in the ant colony search process is adopted in the IPACO algorithm, which enhance the success rate in the ACO algorithm path planning. Five groups of different environments are selected to compare and verify the performance of IPACO algorithm, ACO algorithm and three typical path planning algorithms. The experimental simulation results show that, compared with the ACO algorithm, the convergence speed and the planning path accuracy of the IPACO algorithm are improved by 57.69% and 12.86% respectively, and the convergence speed and the planning path accuracy are significantly improved; the optimal path length, optimization speed and stability of the IPACO algorithm are improved. Which verifies that the IPACO algorithm can effectively improve the environmental compatibility and stability of the ant colony algorithm path planning, and the effect is significantly improved.
A hybrid method of time series forecasting based on information granulation and dynamic selection strategy1

Published: October 2022

Forecasting trend and variation ranges for time series has been challenging but crucial in real-world modeling. This study designs a hybrid time series forecasting (FIGDS) model based on granular computing and dynamic selection strategy. Firstly, with the guidance of the principle of justifiable granularity, a collection of interval-based information granules is formed to characterize variation ranges for time series on a specific time domain. After that, the original time series is transformed into granular time series, contributing to dealing with time series at a higher level of abstraction. Secondly, the L1 trend filtering method is applied to extract trend series and residual series. Furthermore, this study develops hybrid predictors of the trend series and residual series for forecasting the variation range of time series. The ARIMA model is utilized in the forecasting task of the residual series. The dynamic selection strategy is employed to identify the ideal forecasting models from the pre-trained multiple predictor system for forecasting the test pattern of the trend series. Eventually, the empirical experiments are carried out on ten time series datasets with a detailed comparison for validating the effectiveness and practicability of the established hybrid time series forecasting method.
