Published: February 2023

Youth are agents of change who must continue to fight for the principles of the Indonesian state and must be able to manage the democratic transition process in a better direction, especially being able to oversee the implementation of a just political process. For a country to develop, its youth must be of high quality, so one of their vital tasks is political literacy. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to find out how important millennial political behavior and involvement are in influencing millennial political decisions in the 2024 general election. The purpose of this essay is to provide information to readers about how the Millennial Generation will exercise their right to vote on general election in 2024. Using a qualitative approach and literature study methodology, namely by looking for various references on the involvement of Millennial voters in Indonesia, both from books and scientific journals. In terms of maintaining the spirit of democracy so that it continues to grow among the millennial generation, the findings of this study show that the participation of the millennial generation greatly influences the extent to which a candidate can be elected. The outputs and benefits of implementing this socialization are being able to raise early awareness of the younger generation to start being active in the political process, such as exercising their right to vote, becoming election observers, and being able to provide motivation for the younger generation. work directly as a Success Team in supporting potential partners who have a vision and mission that are in line with their views..
Linguistic Registers and Citizenship Education: Divergent Approaches to Content, Instruction, Kichwa Use, and State Relationships in Ecuador’s Intercultural Bilingual Education
Authors: Limerick Nicholas
Published: February 2023

Indigenous education increasingly seeks to reclaim the institutions of state assimilation as spaces for the dissemination and support of localized forms of knowledge and language use and the valorization of alternative citizenship identities. In this study, I compare two schools in Ecuador to show how divergent ways of teaching Kichwa promote or reject state policies of language standardization and the kinds of citizens foregrounded by them. By comparing the schools’ approaches to teaching Kichwa, I call attention to linguistic registers as they carry out or contest predominant forms of citizenship. These examples provide a pathway to study inclusive language policies and classrooms and to understand the multiplicity of ways that citizenship manifestsin communication.
A comparative study to estimate the mode I fracture toughness of rocks using several soft computing techniques
Authors: KÖKEN Ekin , KADAKCİ KOCA Tümay
Published: February 2023

Fracture toughness is an important phenomenon to reveal the actual strength of fractured rock materials. It is, therefore, crucial to use the fracture toughness models principally for simulating the performance of fractured rock medium. In this study, the mode-I fracture toughness (KIC) was investigated using several soft computing techniques. For this purpose, an extensive literature survey was carried out to obtain a comprehensive database that includes simple and widely used mechanical rock parameters such as uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) and Brazilian tensile strength (BTS). Several soft computing techniques such as artificial neural network (ANN), adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS), gene expression programming (GEP), and multivariate adaptive regression spline (MARS) were attempted to reveal the availability of these methods to estimate the KIC. Among these techniques, it was determined that ANN presents the best prediction capability. The correlation of determination value (R2) for the proposed ANN model is 0.90, showing its relative success. In this manner, the present study can be declared a case study, indicating the applicability of several soft computing techniques for the evaluation of KIC. However, the number of samples for different rock types should be increased to improve the established predictive models in future studies.
Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS)
Authors: khan ahmed
Published: February 2023

Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) has defied a clear unified pathological explanation to date. Not surprisingly, treatments for the condition are limited in number, efficacy and their ability to enact a cure. Whilst many observations have been made of physiological abnormalities, how these explain the condition and who does and doesn’t develop CRPS remains unclear. We propose a new overarching hypothesis to explain the condition that invokes four dynamically changing and interacting components of tissue trauma, pathological pain processing, autonomic dysfunction (both peripheral and central) and immune dysfunction, primarily involving excessive and pathological activation of dendritic cells following trauma or atrophy. We outline pathophysiological changes that may initiate a cascade of events involving dendritic cells and the cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway resulting in the condition, and the changes that maintain the condition into its chronic phase. This hypothesis should provide fertile ground for further investigations and development of new treatments that holistically address the nature of the disorder along its developmental continuum.

Cancer patients' information needs: findings from a big research in UK cancer centres
Authors: khan ahmed
Published: February 2023

We gathered information preferences from a diverse sample of 2331 patients as part of a multi-center study evaluating acommunication skills training model for clinicians using an adaption of Cassileth's Information Needs questionnaire. According to the findings,87 percent (2027) desired all available information, both good and negative, and 98 percent (2203) wanted to know whether or not theirdisease was cancer. A cross-tabulation of responses indicated no significant variations in information preferences for tumour site or treatmentgoals, but age and gender did have an influence. The minority 58/440 (13.2 percent) patients who answered that they wanted to leavedisclosure of details to the doctor were mostly senior patients over 70 years old (chi square = 26.01, df = 2, P 0.0001). Despite this, they stillwanted to know some precise information. Women preferred to know the exact name of the illness (chi square = 4.9, df = 1, P 0.02) and allavailable therapies (chi square = 8.26, df = 1, P 0.004) over males. The findings from this big sample give compelling proof that the vastmajority of cancer patients seek a lot of precise information about their condition and treatment. It is indefensible to refuse to give suchinformation on the grounds that a large proportion of patients prefer not to know.

How to Recognize and Manage Cancer Patients' Psychological Distress
Authors: khan ahmed
Published: February 2023

Psychological anguish is widespread among cancer patients, although it is frequently unidentified and mistreated. The goal of this studywas to identify barriers to cancer patients expressing psychological problems and to offer techniques to help oncologists elicit, detect,and treat psychological distress in their patients. The databases Medline, Psychlit, and Cochrane were searched for papers on theidentification of emotional distress in patients. Patients can express their emotional status both verbally and nonverbally. Many patients,however, may not disclose emotional difficulties because they think it is not the doctor's responsibility to assist them with theiremotional worries. Furthermore, patients may normalise or somatize their emotions
Pathways to altered virulence of SARS-CoV-2

Published: February 2023

The recently emerged SARS-CoV-2 virus has led to a prolonged pandemic characterized by ongoing viral evolution. Vaccines have been an important piece in the strategy to combat the virus but have been insufficient to contain it as the virus continues to evolve to evade immunity developed by vaccination and infection. A consistent argument is that vaccination or prior immunity will lead to less severe infections. In this review, we address the question of whether the virus can evolve to become more virulent, despite prior infection. We describe the intrinsic characteristics of the virus and their relationship to altered virulence. We show that it is likely that viral evolution is subject to evolutionary drift, and it cannot be assumed that the virus will necessarily evolve to be less virulent, or that prior immunity will offer durable protection against severe disease. This has strong implications for public health strategies to confront the ongoing challenges presented by SARS-CoV-2 and implies that there are significant risks to a strategy based on the assumption of waning virulence.
Relation between obesity, blood pressure (BP) and bladder cancer (BC) risk
Authors: khan ahmed
Published: February 2023

Obesity, blood pressure (BP), and bladder cancer (BC) risk and mortality remain unknown, in part due to potential confounding by smoking, the most important risk factor for BC, and the lack of accounting for tumour stage and grade in such research. Body mass index (BMI) and blood pressure (BP) were evaluated in connection to BC risk by stage and grade, as well as BC-specific mortality, including separately among never-smokers to reduce confounding by smoking. We looked at 338,910 males from three Swedish cohorts who had 4895 incident BCs (940 among never-smokers) throughout the course of the study. The hazard ratios (HR) and 95 percent confidence intervals (CI) were calculated using Cox regression and adjusted for smoking status. HRs for BMI and BP were estimated from 280,456 people with 758,641 data and adjusted for regression dilution ratios. Body mass index was linked with non-muscle invasive BC and NMIBC grade 3 in the entire population,

A comparison of student attitudes and perceptions before and after Bilal And Ali buddha
Authors: Vishwanath Manish
Published: February 2023

There is growing recognition that interprofessional education (IPE) has potential for teaching health professionals to work together. The impact of IPE on learning outcomes is crucial in judging the worth of such programmers. Attitudes are considered as an important factor in the development of behaviors. The purpose of this study was to examine students' attitudes and views of collaborative learning in an interprofessional environment. Before and after an introductory IPE course, 350 students answered a questionnaire on their attitudes and beliefs about interprofessional teamwork. The same questionnaire was also completed by 202 graduating health professional students who did not have IPE. Questions from the University of West England Interprofessional Questionnaire (UWE IQ) and the Readiness for Interprofessional Learning Scale were incorporated in the questionnaire (RIPLS). Independent samples t-tests demonstrated substantial positive changes in the UWEIQ IP-Learning subscale (p 14 0.012) and RIPLS (p 14 0.05) before and after the IPE course.
Comprehensive analysis of different text sizes on in-vehicle displays from the perspective of arcminutes to promote intelligent information display and driving safety

Published: February 2023

Highly legible text presented on in-vehicle displays contributes to less distraction from the driving task. Thus, it can promote more intelligent information display and driving safety. However, there are limitations to the scenarios in which previous experimental findings can be applied. Here, we employed the arcminute of the text as a more comprehensive unit representing text size and developed a more precise procedure to investigate legibility. Moreover, we jointly investigated the effect of the arcminute of the text (8’, 13’, 18’, 26’, 36’, 50’, 70’, and 80’), effect of state (static or driving), effect of text display position (instrument panel or control panel) and effect of age (young drivers or elderly drivers) on the legibility of the text simultaneously. Forty-nine participants (26 young and 23 elderly) were recruited in our experiment, and they were required to complete the simulated driving task and secondary task on in-vehicle displays. The results of the driving task suggested that an arcminute of the text equal to or greater than 18’ can assure the stability of the vehicle according to the standard deviation of the longitudinal speed. In the secondary task, an arcminute of the text equal to or above 26’ led to fast and accurate reading. The text reading accuracy and speed are relatively high for smaller arcminutes (< 26’) in the driving state and on the control panel compared to those in the static state and on the instrument panel. The subjective evaluation showed that the main effect of the text arcminute was significant. Drivers evaluated greater arcminutes of the text as clearer and more comfortable than smaller arcminutes of the text. This study provided a theoretical framework through which more effective factors can be considered in the text legibility of in-vehicle displays.

Online cognitive behavioral therapy for prolonged grief after traumatic loss: A randomized waitlist-controlled trial
Authors: Lenferink Lonneke I.M. , Eisma Maarten C. , Buiter Marjel , de Keijser Jos , Boelen Paul A.
Published: February 2023

Prolonged grief disorder, a condition characterized by severe, persistent and disabling grief, is newly included in ICD-11 and DSM-5-TR. Prolonged grief symptoms can be effectively treated with face-to-face or internet-delivered cognitive behavioral therapy. Traumatic losses may elicit higher prevalence of severe grief reactions. While face-to-face cognitive behavioral therapy appears efficacious in treating prolonged grief symptoms in traumatically bereaved individuals, it is not yet clear if internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy is efficacious for this population. Therefore, we investigated the efficacy of a 12-week internet-delivered cognitive behavioral therapy for people bereaved through traffic accidents in a randomized waitlist-controlled trial (registration number: NL7497, Dutch Trial Register). Forty adults bereaved though a traffic accident were randomized to internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy (n = 19) or a waitlist control condition (n = 21). Prolonged grief, posttraumatic stress and depression symptoms were assessed at baseline, post-treatment and 8-week follow-up. Dropout in the treatment condition was relatively high (42%) compared to the control condition (19%). Nevertheless, multilevel analyses showed that internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy strongly reduced prolonged grief, posttraumatic stress and depression symptoms relative to the control condition at post-treatment and follow-up. We conclude that internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy appears a promising treatment for traumatically bereaved adults.
Psychopathic Personality as a Moderator of the Relationship Between Atypical Sexuality and Sexual Coercion Proclivity in the General Population
Authors: Thatcher Ashleigh , Wallace Louise , Fido Dean
Published: February 2023

Being sexually coerced can have long-lasting psychological impacts on victims; with perpetration strongly predicted by elevated psychopathic traits. Owing to recent legislative developments in the United Kingdom that criminalize coercive control under the Domestic Abuse Act (2021), this study offers a timely investigation into the mechanisms of sexual coercion in domestic abuse across sexual abuse and coercive control. We used moderation analysis (n = 405) to investigate whether sexual coercion proclivity was predicted by facets of atypical sexuality (non-clinical elevated levels of sex drive, sexual sadism, and sexual masochism), and whether this relationship was moderated by psychopathic personality traits specifically the factor one components, which encompasses interpersonal and affective characteristics). Psychopathic personality traits significantly moderated the positive association between sex drive and sexual coercion proclivity, and between sexual sadism and sexual coercion proclivity in males (but not females), but psychopathic personality traits had no such moderating effect in the sexual masochism model. Results are discussed in terms of identifying risk factors of sexual coercion within a general population sample and international application.

Using a cognitive model to understand crowdsourced data from citizen scientists
Authors: Thorpe Alexander , Kelly Oliver , Callen Alex , Griffin Andrea S , Brown Scott
Published: February 2023

Threatened species monitoring can produce enormous quantities of acoustic and visual recordings which need to be searched for animal detections. Coding the data is extremely time-consuming for humans and even though machine algorithms are emerging as a useful tool to tackle this daunting task, they too require large amounts of known detections for training. Citizen scientists are often recruited via crowd-sourcing to assist. However, the results of their coding can be difficult to interpret because citizen scientists lack comprehensive training and typically each code only a small fraction of the full data set. Competence may vary between citizen scientists, but without knowing the ground truth of the data set, it is difficult to identify which scientists are most competent. We used a quantitative cognitive model, cultural consensus theory, to analyze both empirical and simulated data from a crowdsourced analysis of audio recordings of Australian frogs. Several hundred citizen scientists were asked whether the calls of nine frog species were present on 1,260 brief audio recordings, though most only coded a small fraction of these recordings. Through modeling, characteristics of both the scientist cohort and the recordings were estimated, to identify trends in competence in the former and frog calls in the latter. We then compared the model's output to expert coding of the recordings and found agreement between the cohort's consensus and the expert evaluation. This finding adds to the evidence that crowdsourced analyses can be utilised to understand large-scale datasets, even when the ground truth of the dataset is unknown. The model-based analysis provides a promising tool to screen large data sets prior to investing expert time, and allocate resources more efficiently when recruiting citizen scientists or training classification algorithms.

Social science research has highlighted ‘honor’ as a central value driving social behavior in Mediterranean societies, which requires individuals to develop and protect a sense of their personal self-worth and their social reputation, through assertiveness, competitiveness, and retaliation in the face of threats. We predicted that members of Mediterranean societies may exhibit a distinctive combination of independent and interdependent social orientation, self-construal, and cognitive style, compared to more commonly studied East Asian and Anglo-Western cultural groups. We compared participants from eight Mediterranean societies (Spain, Italy, Greece, Turkey, Cyprus [Turkish Cypriot and Greek Cypriot communities], Lebanon, Egypt) to participants from East Asian (Korea, Japan) and Anglo-Western (UK, US) societies, using six implicit social orientation indicators, an eight-dimensional self-construal scale, and four cognitive style indicators. Compared with both East Asian and Anglo-Western samples, samples from Mediterranean societies distinctively emphasized several forms of independence (relative intensity of disengaging [vs. engaging] emotions, happiness based on disengaging [vs. engaging] emotions, dispositional [vs. situational] attribution style, self-construal as different from others, self-directed, self-reliant, self-expressive, and consistent) and interdependence (closeness to ingroup [vs. outgroup] members, self-construal as connected and committed to close others). Our findings extend previous insights into patterns of cultural orientation beyond commonly examined East-West comparisons to an understudied world region.
Is time an embodied property of concepts?
Authors: Davis Charles P. , Yee Eiling
Published: February 2023

A haircut usually lasts under an hour. But how long does it take to recognize that something is an instance of a haircut? And is this “time-to-perceive” a part of the representation of haircuts? Across three experiments testing semantic decision, word recognition, and lexical decision, we show that the amount of time people say it takes to perceive something in the world (e.g., haircut, dandelion, or merit) predicts how long it takes for them to respond to a word referring to that thing, over and above the effects of other lexical-semantic variables (e.g., word frequency, concreteness) and other variables related to conceptual complexity (e.g., how much physical space is required to perceive a concept, or the diversity of the contexts in which a concept appears). These results suggest that our experience of how long it takes to recognize an instance of something can become a part of its representation, and that we simulate this information when we read a word referring to it. Consequently, we suggest that time may be an embodied property of concepts.
The Effects of Temporal Cues, Point-Light Displays, and Faces on Speech Identification and Listening Effort
Authors: Brown Violet Aurora , Strand Julia Feld
Published: February 2023

Among the most robust findings in speech research is that the presence of a talking face improves the intelligibility of spoken language. Talking faces supplement the auditory signal by providing fine phonetic cues based on the placement of the articulators, as well as temporal cues to when speech is occurring. In this study, we varied the amount of information contained in the visual signal, ranging from temporal information alone to a natural talking face. Participants were presented with spoken sentences in energetic or informational masking in four different visual conditions: audio-only, a modulating circle providing temporal cues to salient features of the speech, a digitally rendered point-light display showing lip movement, and a natural talking face. We assessed both sentence identification accuracy and self-reported listening effort. Audiovisual benefit for intelligibility was observed for the natural face in both informational and energetic masking, but the digitally rendered point-light display only provided benefit in energetic masking. Intelligibility for speech accompanied by the modulating circle did not differ from the audio-only conditions in either masker type.

Published: February 2023

Background: The significance of selection and accelerated perception of self-related sensory information is an established phenomenon termed the self-bias effect. Self-related motor information is utilised by self-other monitoring processes like implicit measures of a sense of agency. Intentional binding is one such process that focuses on the temporal shift between a voluntary action and the sensory consequence. Recently, it was discovered that self-related information from visual stimuli could also affect retrospective intentional binding. Considering the importance of the left temporoparietal junction (l-TPJ) in self-other monitoring, we explored its causal role by modulating its activity with high-definition transcranial direct current stimulation (HD-tDCS). We predicted increased self-associated saliency and intentional binding from anodal HD-tDCS to l-TPJ compared to baseline and cathodal stimulation conditions. Methods: Fifteen healthy right-handed participants performed two computerized tasks: sound-label matching and intentional binding tasks. Behavioural data were collected at baseline and following randomly ordered anodal and cathodal HD-tDCS of l-TPJ. Anodal and cathodal HD-tDCS were administered to all the participants in two different sessions and were separated by at least 72 hours.Results: Strong self-bias effect was observed in all conditions. We didn’t note a retrospective intentional binding effect between self-associated and other-associated sounds in any of the conditions. HD-tDCS indicates a dual and crucial role of l-TPJ in general mismatch detection and other-associated stimulus representation in the self-bias effect.Conclusion: The results suggest a diverse role of l-TPJ in self-reference networks and general mismatch detection.
Targeting Cancer Cell Signaling Using Precision Oncology Towards a Holistic Approach to Cancer Therapeutics
Authors: KUMAR MANISH
Published: February 2023

Cancer is a complex disease having a number of composite problems to be considered including cancer immune evasion, therapy resistance, and recurrence for a cure. Fundamentally, it remains a genetic disease as diverse aspects of the complexity of tumor growth and cancer development relate to its genetic machinery and require addressing the problems at the level of genome and epigenome. Importantly, patients with the same cancer types respond differently to cancer therapies indicating the need for patient-specific treatment options. Precision oncology is a form of cancer therapy that focuses on the genetic profiling of tumors to identify molecular alterations involved in cancer development for custom-tailored personalized treatment of the deadly disease. This article aims to briefly explain the foundations and frontiers of precision oncology in the context of ongoing technological advances in this regard to assess its scope and importance in the realization of a proper cure for cancer.
Exploring geographical differences and disparities of COVID-19 cases and understand the gaps in responses in South Asian countries: A three-month analysis of cases and responses
Authors: Hossain Ahmed , Chandra Das Dipak , Benzadid Shadly , Rahman Chowdhury Saifur
Published: February 2023

Background and Aim: Response in a beginning of an infection is important to prevent and control any infectious disease. It has never been studied how the countries in South Asia responded in the beginning of COVID-19 infections. The aim of this study was to explore the gap in responses by geographical variations and inequalities of COVID-19 cases in South Asian Countries.Methods: Covid-19 cases, geographic and demographic data for South-Asian countries were abstracted from the news medias, Johns Hopkins University dashboard, and countries government websites. The coverage period was until May 7, 2020. Descriptive analyses of COVID-19 cases were stratified by gender and age group. Clustering and spatial analysis was performed to show the COVID-19 case distribution.Results: Over 100000 confirmed cases were found in South-Asian countries until May 7, 2020, and 95% of them are in India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. Alarmingly, a sharp increase in new cases was observed in Bangladesh and India in early May. In this region, India reported 56% of total cases, with the highest case fatality rate of 3.4%. Approximately 70% of infected cases in this region were found in men. Approximately 42% of confirmed cases were found between the ages of 20-40, and about 20% of infected cases were found over 50 years or older. All big, economically important cities in this region were mainly infected. Bangladesh and Afghanistan reported a slow rate of recovery with 16% and 13%, respectively while India reported 29%. Afghanistan used only four tests to detect a case while India used 25 tests to detect a case showing  poor numbers and insufficient test facilities in Afghanistan.
Conclusion: The biggest and most economically-important cities in every South-Asian country were infected with COVID-19, where returning the migrant workers to work was a significant challenge after lifting the restrictions. Data from India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh suggest that these countries did not show the peak in the first six months. In South Asia, men were at higher risk for both infection and death, regardless of age. There were many underreported cases in these regions. Scale up services to improve the testing facilities and start a surveillance system to identify the cases rapidly especially from the marginalized population and women could reduce the burden of any infections.
