Authors: Holubieva Inna , Kolenko Julia , Khomenko Larisa , Ostapko Olena , Semenova Ilona , Voronina Irina
Published: March 2024

Purpose: To estimate the prevalence of gingivitis associated with dental biofilm and to investigate the influence of local risk factors on the development of inflammatory process in the gums in children and adolescents.
Materials and Methods: 117 children and adolescents aged 12 to 17 years at the Dental Medical Centre of the Bogomolets National Medical University were examined. All participants were examined for periodontal status, state of oral hygiene, and local risk factors for periodontal diseases.
Results: A high prevalence of gingivitis associated with dental plaque (89.7%) was found in children and adolescents aged 12-17 years. The overwhelming majority of them (71.4%) had gingivitis caused by dental biofilm and local risk factors. The prevalence of malocclusions and anomalies of individual teeth was 60%. Carious tooth lesions and poor-quality proximal restorations were detected in 37.1% of participants. Violations of the rules of individual hygienic care of the oral cavity were observed in 54.3% of patients.
Conclusion: Local risk factors lead to a significant deterioration in periodontal health in childhood and adolescence, especially in the case of their combined adverse effects. Significant predictors of gingivitis include the accumulation of microbial biofilm and tartar due to poor oral hygiene, dentoalveolar anomalies, carious cavities and proximal restorations, irregular toothbrushing and poor interdental hygiene. The high prevalence of gingivitis necessitates the priority development of primary prevention of inflammatory periodontal diseases in children and adolescents.

In Khalili's poetry, numerous indicators and signs of Islamic awakening and his attention to the revival of lost Islamic values and the glorious past of the Islamic community can be found. Among the most notable indicators are the promotion of the idea of global Islamic unity, the call for Muslim unity, condemnation of various forms of division, anti-colonialism, advocating the establishment of the duty of jihad, strengthening self-confidence and self-belief among Muslims, instilling hope for a bright future, calling for a return to the Quran and Its liberating message, renewing Islamic thought, and combating superstitions resulting from the period of decline
Learning analytics for student homework activities during a long break: Evidence from K-12 education in Japan
Authors: Kuromiya Hiroyuki , Majumdar Rwitajit , Horikoshi Izumi , Ogata Hiroaki
Published: March 2024

Learning Analytics (LA) is an emergent field that aims to better understand students and provide intelligence to learners, teachers, and administrators using learning log data. Although the use of technology in class is increasing in the K-12 sector and tertiary education, cases of effective implementation of LA in secondary schools have rarely been reported. This study offers an example of LA implemented in a junior high Math class during long vacations in Japan. This paper comprises two studies: first, we analyzed 121 students’ answer logs and their exam performance after vacation by the K-means clustering method. We found that students’ progress patterns were categorized into four types of engagement—early, late, high, and low—and the early and high-engagement groups obtained significantly higher scores than the low-engagement group. In the second study, we implemented a real-time dashboard that visualizes students’ progress patterns and gives students insights about their progress during the vacation period. We found that the dashboard significantly increased students’ interactions with the assignment, and the questionnaire survey determined that the LA dashboard motivated students to learn during the long vacation period. Considering the previous studies of LA, we estimate that LA-based interventions enhance students’ self-regulation skills, which is crucial for learning during long vacation periods. Our study offers a novel approach to implementing LA in K-12 education.

Pros and Cons of Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound in Endovascular Aneurysm Repair Surveillance
Authors: Barmparessos Emmanouil , Stenson Katherine , Holt Peter
Published: March 2024

Endovascular Aneurysm Repair (EVAR) has become an increasingly popular treatment for abdominal aortic aneurysm. The success of this type of treatment is dependent upon, to great extent, appropriate post-procedure surveillance accurately recognises complications in a timely fashion. The prominent modes of surveillance have been Computed Tomography Angiography (CTA) and Color Duplex Ultrasound (CDUS). Each imaging method has its limitations; particularly the use of radiation and intravenous contrast media for the CTA and the subjectivity and lower resolution of the images that CDUS generates. More recently, Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound (CEUS) has been used and provides an accurate diagnosis of many post-procedure complications. This study aims to review the literature and present the evidence for the role of CEUS in the surveillance of EVAR patients, which may have implications for future practice.
The impact of government contracts on trade credit and policy implications for Vietnam
Authors:   Banking Academy of Vietnam, Lương Văn Đạt , Nguyễn Thị Cẩm Thủy , Nguyễn Nhật Minh , Đỗ Thị Minh Anh
Published: March 2024

This paper investigates the impact of government contracts on trade credit using World Bank Enterprise Surveys with 45.690 observations of 105 countries, from 2006 to 2020. By using the Pool OLS model, empirical results demonstrate that government contracts have a negative impact on trade credit. The negative relationship between government contracts and trade credit can be explained through two channels: the direct channel from the characteristics of government contracts and the indirect channel through the signaling role of public procurement. These findings have important policy implications for Vietnam: Contracting with the government helps businesses reduce their dependence on trade credit by switching to other cheaper financing sources, especially for enterprises whose financial statements are certified by external auditors or enterprises with foreign investment.

Authors: Li Ying , Gu Xiufeng , Shi Yun , Li Jie , Wen Shangyu
Published: March 2024

Background: The study aimed to explore the correlation between the angiotensin II (Ang II) gene and serum adiponectin expression in patients with cerebrovascular complications of H-type hypertension (HH) and its mechanism. Methods: A total of 50 cases of outpatient patients in Tianjin Fourth Central Hospital were recruited from January 2022 to June 2023 and rolled into three groups according to their blood pressure and basic information, namely the HH cerebrovascular complications group, the non-H-type hypertension (NHH) group, and the healthy control (HC) group. Peripheral blood samples were taken; one sample was utilized to test for the Ang II gene and the methylation of Ang II, and the other sample was utilized to measure serum adiponectin levels to analyze the relationship between serum adiponectin level and Ang II in patients with cerebrovascular complications of HH. Results: The ratio of male to female was 8:7 in the group of cerebrovascular complications of HH, and mean systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) were 167.34 mm Hg and 112.56 mm Hg, respectively. In the NHH group, the mean SBP was 165.89 mm Hg, and the mean DBP was 113.47 mm Hg. The blood pressure of the HC group was in the normal range. The Ang II content was the highest in the group with cerebrovascular complications of HH, followed by the group with NHH, and the lowest in the HC group. Conclusions: Pyrosequencing chart of patients with cerebrovascular complications of HH showed that the content of deoxyphosphate ribose G was the highest, while the content of A was the highest in NHH patients. Moreover, the serum adiponectin level of patients with HH and NHH was superior to that of the HC group, and the adiponectin level between the former two groups and the HC group differed considerably. Ang II levels were high in patients with cerebrovascular complications of HH and were positively correlated with adiponectin levels. The incidence of cerebrovascular complications of HH may be related to Ang II levels in patients.

Reinforced concrete (RC) flat slab not only provides benefits in terms of floor-to-floor height, aesthetics but also facilitates the installation of formwork, reducing construction time for the project. However, this type of floor structure is prone to punching failure at the slab-column connection, which can lead to the collapse of the structure. Corrosion of the steel reinforcement at the connection of the slab-column makes the behavior more complex. Predicting the load-bearing capacity in this zone needs to account for the factors caused by corrosion. This paper presents the results of evaluating the punching shear strength of corroded RC flat slabs through 123 experimental databases from previous publication based on three building codes: ACI 318-19, Eurocode 2, and TCVN 5574:2018. The statistical metrics indicate that TCVN 5574:2018 provides the safest prediction results. Additionally, a formula derived from nonlinear regression analysis is proposed to enhance the accuracy in predicting the punching shear strength of the corroded RC flat slabs.
A design method for rock groynes exposed to overtopping from long-period ship wave loads
Authors: Seemann Arne , Melling Gregor , Jansch Hanne , Kondziella Bernhard
Published: March 2024

In German estuaries ship induced loads have increased in recent years due to the gradual change of the fleet structure towards bigger vessels. Groynes in particular are vulnerable to long-period primary ship wave loading due to an overtopping phenomenon which at some localities can lead to severe damages. While in recent years the hydraulic processes have been the focus of investigations, currently no validated rock sizing method existents for this special load case. To investigate this problem a prototype experiment with two optimized groyne designs was conducted. Associated monitoring recorded wave heights, flow velocities and structural changes over the course of 4 years. This paper conducts an analysis of this accumulated data. Relationships of primary wave heights and overtopping flow conditions and thus to rock movements are discussed. Similarities to weir flow and overflowing of riprap embankments are exploited by applying existing analytical and empirical formulae. This leads to good stone size predictions as validated against the observed riprap erosion data. From 28 observed erosive events, 23 could are predicted correctly. Ultimately, a rock sizing method for rock groynes against primary ship wave loads is proposed.

Assessment of Broccoli (Brassica oleracea) Cultivation under Two Irrigation Systems in Central Iraq
Authors: Hatif Yaseen , Ghazal Kareim A.
Published: March 2024

A field experiment was conducted in the Abbasiya area of Najaf Governorate, located in the Middle Euphrates region during the winter season of 2022-2023. The primary focus of the study was to evaluate the performance of two irrigation systems, nano-irrigation, and subsurface drip irrigation, on broccoli plants grown in clay soil. The experimental design followed a Complete Randomized Block Design (CRBD). Nano-irrigation demonstrated several advantages over subsurface drip irrigation. It exhibited a reduction inater con-sumption and lower energy requirements for water pumping opera-tions. Notably, the root length of broccoli plants was significantly greater under the nano-irrigation system, with an increase of 18.2 cm compared to the drip irrigation system. The use of nano-irrigation resulted in better water use efficiency and energy efficien-cy, leading to improved root development in the broccoli plants. The study results indicated that nano-irrigation offers benefits in terms of water conservation and plant growth promotion, ultimately leading to increased overall productivity. This makes nano-irrigation an appealing option for improving water use efficiency in agriculture, particularly in regions that face water scarcity. Moreo-ver, there was no significant difference in yield between the nano-irrigation and subsurface drip irrigation systems.

Authors: Rasool Majid Hamid , Al-Nuaimi Ali J. , Al-Sabbagh Juman Khaleel
Published: March 2024

Bisphenol A (BPA) is an endocrine disruptor and an environmental pollutant; it can produce free radicals, which cause damage in various tissues. Curcumin has been demonstrated to help with a variety of male reproductive diseases, as well as to scavenge free radicals and function as an antioxidant. The aim is to estimate the protective role of Curcumin against the toxic effect of BPA in male rats by determining the levels of antioxidants and sexual hormones, before and after treatment with this herb. The effect of curcumin as a protective role against BPA on the oxidative stress parameters showed that Curcumin could decrease MDA concentration and at the same time increase the concentration of both catalase and SOD. Also, the results revealed that Curcumin could increase the concentration of LH, FSH, and testosterone as compared to the BPA-treated group.
EU Law Through the State Lens
Authors: Mendes Joana
Published: March 2024

The conceptual apparatus that frames our knowledge of EU administrative law today has its origins in the legal scholarship that established a new field in the turn of the 1980s and during the 1990s. This scholarly field owes much of its uncontested existence to a series of major handbooks, which systematized materials that hitherto had been sparse and scattered, first in German, then in English and later still in French. Revisiting the past may provide some clues as to the role legal scholars can and should have in a period in which we may be witnessing an epochal transition in Europe.

The use of public policy to balance the interests of the public and government has not always worked well. The government's tendency to change or cancel some policies points to overlapping policies, a lack of innovation among public officers, and a low motivation to innovate. Consequently, a novel strategy that might offer significant support in resolving societal issues is needed. Describe and analyze policy innovation in public administration approach and policy innovation toward effective public policy governance was the aim of the research. The first qualitative approach was the methodology used. An academic literature review on public policy science was the method used to gather ideas pertinent to the study of public policy innovation. The collection of data was conducted by means of an examination of many sources and literature, including government records, printed and electronic media, journals, and publications pertaining to public administration and policy innovation. Policy innovation application is modeled by the use of NPS to apply innovative concepts. A method that allows the public the room to cooperate and be focused on performance development views the public in a holistic, compassionate, and humanist manner. 1) Support type; 2) Innovation management; and 3) Qualities in value application will lead to the realization of good public policy governance.
Trust Framework on Exploitation of Humans as the Weakest Link in Cybersecurity
Authors: Morice Daudi
Published: March 2024

T he significance of cybersecurity is increasing in our daily digital lives. The reason for this rise is that human interactions take place in computer-mediated environments, or cyberspace, where physical cues from face-to-face interactions are either absent or very minimal. Computer users are becoming increasingly susceptible to cyberattacks as a result of human interactions in cyberspace. Understanding how cybercriminals exploit the human trust, the weakest link in cybersecurity is relevant because cybercriminals focus on attacking the human psychology of trust rather than technical-based controls. To this end, the present paper develops a trust framework on exploitation of humans as the weakest link in cybersecurity. The framework is established by linking the human psychology of trust and techniques used by cybercriminals in deceiving and manipulating users of computer systems. The framework is validated by demonstrating its application using a case study employing real data. Findings show that cybercriminals exploit human trust based on trust development processes and bases of trust, either creating (falsified) expectations or a relationship history to lure the victim in. Furthermore, it is revealed that technical-based controls cannot provide effective safeguards to prevent manipulation of the human psychology of trust.

Superior canal dehiscence syndrome (SCDS) described in 1998 is a disorder characterized by vertigo in response to loud sounds, pulsatile tinnitus, conductive hyperacusis, autophony and chronic disequilibrium. While resurfacing and/or plugging of the superior canal may improve autophony and reduce dizziness handicap, it can result in immediate and long-term deficits in VOR function, necessitating vestibular rehabilitation (VR) during the early post-operative recovery period. Case description: a 34- year-old man with a history of autophony, pulsatile tinnitus and audible eye movements in his right ear. He denied any vertigo or disequilibrium. Immediately after surgical plugging he presented severe vertigo and disequilibrium as well as deterioration of right hearing loss. Due to persistent instability, VR was performed for five months after surgery with improved outcomes. Our purpose is to emphasize and increase awareness in surgeons, especially in Latin America, the importance of VR immediately after surgery. Additionally, we make some comments about the surgical decisions in two patients with otosclerosis and SCDS and the importance of VR.

Authors: Блінов Євген
Published: March 2024

Стаття присвячена дослідженню української преси з початку повномасштабної російської агресії проти України, перш за все, – регіональних медіа, які є важливою ланкою медіасистеми сучасних демократичних держав.Виконуючи специфічні функції, вони, з одного боку, дозволяють мешканцям громад отримувати інформацію відповідного рівня, з іншого, – є своєрідним містком між громадами та державою. Збереження і розвиток українських регіональних медіа як важливого елемента демократичного устрою саме в період повномасштабної війни є завданням як громадянського суспільства, так і держави. А предметом наукового інтересу дослідників має стати функціонування локальних засобів масової інформації в умовах великої війни України за свободу та незалежність. Встановлено, що тематика друкованих та онлайн-видань зазнала за цей період певної трансформації, зумовленої сприйняттям війни у перші місяці після вторгнення та після перших успіхів Збройних Сил України. Автор доходить висновку, що регіональні медіа в Україні, попри певні хронічні проблеми, здебільшого подолали перший шок від повномасштабної війни, змогли впоратися з найбільшими перепонами, зберегли аудиторію та продовжують виробляти медіаконтент відповідно до запитів місцевих громад.
