Comparison of Biomechanical Behaviors of Different Designs and Configurations of Titanium and Zirconium Dental Implants With Finite Elements Analysis in Anterior Maxilla
Authors: İzgi Eda , Şimşek Mehmet Barış
Published: March 2024

Finite element analysis assists in the understanding of the biomechanical behavior of implants with different designs and material characteristics. Through this analysis, this study aimed to compare the biomechanical behaviors of different designs and configurations of titanium (tapered or cylindric) and zirconia dental implants in the edentulous anterior maxilla. Three-dimensional models of the edentulous maxilla, dental implants, and prosthetic structures were modeled, and different loading conditions were applied to simulate realistic conditions. A total of 6 different models were evaluated: the model (M1) in which tapered implants were located bilaterally in the central canine, the model (M2) in which tapered implants were located bilaterally in the lateral canine, the model (M3) in which cylindric implants were located bilaterally in the central canine, the model (M4) in which cylindric implants were located bilaterally in the lateral canine, the model (M5) in which zirconia implants were located bilaterally in the central canine, and the model (M6) in which zirconia implants were located bilaterally in the lateral canine. Maximum tensile and compressive stress values were recorded at M4 under vertical loading and at M6 under oblique loading, whereas minimum stress values were recorded at M1 under all loading conditions. Maximum von Mises stress values under vertical and oblique loading conditions were observed at M3 and M4, while the minimum stress was observed at M1 and M2. In conclusion, zirconia implants may present a biomechanically convenient and esthetic alternative treatment option in edentulous anterior maxilla rehabilitation compared with tapered and cylindric implants.
Enhancing Precision and Efficiency in Fabricating Complete Arch Screw-Retained Implant Prosthesis: A Clinical Case Report Utilizing the Nexus iOS Scan Gauge System
Authors: Khalili Maryam
Published: March 2024

Achieving an accurate fit in a complete arch screw-retained implant prosthesis is paramount, regardless of whether analog or digital impressions are employed. In the context of complete arch implant prostheses, using intraoral scanners has sparked significant debate. However, recent advancements in scanner technology, specialized scan gauges meticulously calibrated for precise recording, and the implementation of appropriate scanning techniques have substantially improved the precision and accuracy of digital records. The Nexus iOS scan gauge system represents a pioneering approach, seamlessly integrating these optimization strategies into a purely digital workflow to fabricate complete arch screw-retained implant prostheses in edentulous patients. This case report elucidates the fabrication process of a complete arch screw-retained implant prosthesis that exhibited remarkable fitting accuracy and streamlined the treatment process to a mere 3 appointments. The patient reported high satisfaction with the efficient timeline, aesthetic appeal, and functional performance of the prosthesis. A distinctive advantage of this technique is the notable reduction in treatment steps compared to traditional procedures.

Counter-Improvised Explosive Devices (C-IED) mission support capabilities
Authors: Horváth Tibor , Tábi Levente
Published: March 2024

Actions and activities taken against the IED threat comprise complex tasks. In thebeginning, the focus was on the deactivation and destruction of IEDs, as the only wayto fight against them. As time has passed, more existing capabilities were included inthe field of C-IED, which were able to contribute to the mitigation of the effectivenessof an IED attack.Due to the fact that the first type of response to IED-threat was tasked to combatengineers, particularly to EOD personnel, that was rather obvious that C-IED missionsand responsibilities fell to combat engineers. Nowadays, however, capabilities andcapacities in the C-IED can be identified that exceed the competence of engineer unitsand commanders. The C-IED requires a comprehensive approach. In a staff andheadquarters lots of capabilities and capacities should be involved in C-IED activities,which requires coordination and cooperation. The involvement of those capabilitiesdepends on the type of mission, its phases, and the nature of IED threat. Thus amission commander needs to understand which are the C-IED enablers that cancontribute to C-IED tasks, when and how they influence or mitigate IED threats.

Az orosz zászlóalj harccsoportjellemzõinek bemutatása a harctéri teljesítményük alapján
Authors: Takács Márk György
Published: March 2024

On the eve of the ongoing Russo-Ukraine War, the most important land forceselement of the Russian Armed Forces was the battalion tactical group (BTG). Beforethe re-escalation of the war, in 2021 the author had already written a publication, inwhich he had examined the real capabilities of the BTGs. In that article, the authorused the well-known Warfighting Functions (WFF) in order to have a clear view of theBTGs’ real capabilities. In that article, the author had got to the conclusion that themain advantages of the BTGs are their fires, fast decision-making process, andintelligence-gathering capabilities. While the disadvantages of the BTGs are therigidness of their decision-making process, the sustainment, and the force protection.Based on the above, the author stated that if the BTGs can retain the initiativeand based on this, they can employ their fires and effectively use their fastdecision-making process, they are a formidable and dangerous enemy.However, the first half year (because after the first six months, there were noBTGs left as combat-capable units) of the ongoing war presents us a totally differentpicture. The goal of this publication is to find the actual reasons behind the Russiandebacles based on the proven WFF analysis. The author had an easier task, thus byexamining the actual battles of this war, the real advantages and disadvantages of theBTGs are easier to identify.The author presented in this article that the rigid decision-making system of theBTGs had spectacularly failed. This has two main reasons: the first is the loss of thetactical initiative because of the low-level tactical independence of the tactical-levelcommanders; the other is the insufficient quality and quantity of communicationsystems and equipment. The other advantage of the BTGs (fires) could not orjust barely prevail because of the rigid decision-making process and the uselesscommunication system. The fundamental land forces’ tactical organisation of theRussian Armed Forces could not react properly to the Ukrainians’ tactic basedon small-scale limited counterattacks and retrograde operations. Later, the rigid,command-centric decision-making process deprived the attacking Russians of thenecessary logistic support and tactical flexibility to break through the deliberateUkrainian defences based on the favourable terrain.

A Zrínyi Miklós (1620–1664) által 1661-ben emelt Zrínyi-Újvár építésének, ostromának, elfoglalásának és lerombolásának történetét már számos tanulmányban bemutatták a kutatók. Ezek az írások – az eddig ismert adatok alapján – képet adnak a körülményekről, az erősség ellentmondásos megítéléséről. Ugyanakkor eddig nem találkoztunk olyan értékeléssel, ami részletesen foglalkozott volna Zrínyi Miklós egy igen előre mutató javaslatával, ami talán esélyt adhatott volna a hatékonyabb védekezésre. Nevezetesen azzal, hogy a Kanizsa alól visszavonuló csapatok ne a Mura túlpartján, hanem a vár előtt húzódó magaslatokon foglaljanak védőkörletet. Az alábbiakban arra teszünk kísérletet, hogy ennek a javaslatnak az előnyeit és hátrányait vegyük sorra, anélkül, hogy ítéletet mondanánk az adott pillanatban megszületettdöntésekről.

The Black Female Messiah in Nnedi Okorafor's The Book of Phoenix
Authors: Borain Bernice
Published: March 2024

The Africanfuturist novel The Book of Phoenix by Nnedi Okorafor (2015) centres on a paradoxical black female messiah, whose story embodies the contemporary woman's ofo (a sacred Igbo symbol of worship and conjuration that establishes her cause as just). In this prequel to the award-winning Who Fears Death (2010), Phoenix is the redemptive creator-destroyer who leaves the page blank for a womanist rewriting in the sequel. Phoenix, who precipitates the apocalyptic event, is represented as a beacon and a purifying fire. Through Phoenix's recording, The Book of Phoenix is transcribed and becomes the Great Book. Applying African/Afrofuturist and womanist theory as an etic observer, I establish how the text performs the work of recovering an occluded history by creatively re-visioning theological frameworks.

Számos, nemrégiben megjelent tanulmány változatos élőhelyek ízeltlábú diverzitásának, biomasszájának és egyedszámának ijesztő mértékű csökkenéséről számolt be. Ennek az ökológiai vonatkozása jelentős lehet, hiszen ezen szervezetek más élőlényeknek fontos táplálékául szolgálnak. Az Erdészeti Fénycsapda Hálózat adatait használtuk annak megállapítására, hogy a tavaszi hernyó biomassza hosszútávú (23-58 év) változása mutat-e csökkenő trendet tölgy dominálta erdeinkben. 6 helyszín 43 nagylepke fajára (hernyóik a madarak számára megfelelő táplálékok) vonatkozó adatait használtuk az elérhető hernyó biomassza becsléséhez. Az idősorok elemzése erős fluktuációt mutat évről évre, és összességében inkább növekvő, mint csökkenő trendet találtunk. Erdőegészségügyi vonatkozásokat figyelembe véve ez a biomassza növekedés fokozott lombfogyasztással jár, így negatív hatása lehet. Elmondhatjuk, hogy azok a nagylepke fajok, melyek hernyói tavasszal fejlődnek, az elmúlt évtizedekben nem fogyatkoztak meg. Egyes fajok hernyóinak becsült biomassza-növekedése az erdőegészségre negatívan, azonban a madarak fészkelési sikerességére pozitívan hathat.

A tölgy-csipkéspoloska tömeges fellépése jelentős hatással lehet tölgyeseink egészségi állapotára, növedékére, makktermésére és a tölgyesekhez kapcsolódó közösségekre. Nagy távolságra történő terjedését elsősorban a közúti és vasúti forgalom segíti elő, míg kisebb távolságokra aktívan és passzívan egyaránt képes eljutni. Rövid távú terjedését befolyásoló tényezők lehetnek a fertőzési forrástól való távolság, az elegyesség, vagy az uralkodó szélirány. Specialista lombfogyasztókra (különösen a tápnövényt aktívan keresőkre) jellemző, hogy ha tápnövényük elegyben található meg, akkor azt nehezebben találják meg, így terjedésük lassabb, illetve korlátozott. Eredményeink azt mutatják, hogy kezdetben az utak szegélyeiben keletkeznek nagyobb fertőzési gócok, a fertőzés innen halad az állományok belseje felé. Az elegyes erdők nem képesek érdemben lassítani a C. arcuata invázióját, valamint az uralkodó széliránnyal ellentétes irányba is képes a faj terjedni.
Is poor oral health a risk factor for idiopathic granulomatous mastitis?
Authors: Sağlık Semih , Ay Enver , Bilek Olgaç Şilan , Nas Necip , Altunışık Bilal
Published: March 2024

Idiopathic granulomatous mastitis (IGM) is a rare inflammatory breast disease that can be clinically and radiologically mistaken for carcinoma. Although its etiology remains uncertain, potential associations with pregnancy, lactation, hormonal imbalances, autoimmunity, smoking, and various microorganisms have been suggested. This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between IGM and oral health. We included 42 female patients diagnosed with IGM based on histopathological evaluations conducted between September 2018 and October 2023. The reference group consisted of 47 female patients with clinically, radiologically, and laboratory-proven non-specific mastitis and 36 healthy female individuals. The oral health of all participants was evaluated by an experienced dentist using the "Decayed, Missing and Filled Teeth" (DMFT) index and the "Simplified Oral Hygiene Index" (OHI-S). The ages of IGM patients included in this study ranged from 29 to 51 years, with a mean age of 34.88 ± 4.87 years. The most common clinical findings were pain (n = 38), palpable breast mass, erythema, induration, and dermal sinus. Comparison of the OHI-S and DMFT index values among participants revealed that those diagnosed with IGM had significantly higher values than those in the reference group (P < 0.05). Our findings suggest a potential involvement of poor oral health in the etiology of IGM. Future studies should consider oral health as a factor in IGM etiology and explore the oral microbiota in samples obtained from the affected tissue.
Gaziantep kent akslarının 100 yıllık değişimi
Authors: ATAŞ Zeynep
Published: March 2024

Bu makale, Gaziantep şehrinin Cumhuriyet Dönemi boyunca kentsel dönüşümünü kent akslarının değişimi üzerinden incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Türkiye'nin ulusal kimliğinin şekillenmesine yönelik adımların atıldığı dönemde tarihsel mirası ve ekonomik dinamikleri ile dikkat çeken Gaziantep, yaşadığı kentsel değişimle öne çıkmaktadır. Kent aksları, kentin sosyal, ekonomik ve kültürel alanlarının şehir genelindeki dönüşümünün bir yansımasıdır. Gaziantep şehrinin kent akslarının, Cumhuriyet Dönemi boyunca nasıl bir gelişim gösterdiği ve bu değişikliklerin şehir genelinde hangi etkilere yol açtığı gibi temel sorular, Gaziantep'in Türkiye mimarlığındaki yerini ve kentsel dönüşüm süreçlerini daha iyi anlamamıza yardımcı olacaktır. 1923 yılı öncesinde Gaziantep, kale çevresinde, güvenlik odaklı bir yaşam tarzının etkisi altında, organik gelişen bir kent durumundadır. Kentin güneye yönelen aksları etrafında şekillenen yapılaşmasında; Cumhuriyet dönemi sonrasında, nüfus artışıyla birlikte, yeni yerleşim alanlarına ihtiyaç duyulmuştur. Bu durumda kent gelişimi mevcut mahalleler arasındaki boşlukları doldurarak 1950 yıllarına kadar mevcut sınırları içerisinde devam etmiştir. Kentlerde başlatılan imar düzenlemeleri kapsamında ilk 1938 yılında Gaziantep kenti imar planı hazırlanmıştır. 20. yüzyılın sonlarına doğru kentte yaşanan hızlı nüfus artışı ile imar planlarında tasarlanan alan dışında yoğunluk oluşmuş, ancak 1975 yılından sonra planlı alanlarda yapılaşma görülmeye başlanmıştır. Çalışmada, yeni imar alanlarının belirlenmesi sürecinde tarihi kent merkezinin mevcut akslarının yönlendirici etkisi vurgulanmaktır. Çalışmanın sonuçlarına göre, tarihi kent merkezi, Gaziantep'in modern bir kent olarak büyümesinde vazgeçilmez bir bileşen olarak görülmelidir. Bu bölge, sadece tarihi ve kültürel bir mirasın taşıyıcısı olmanın ötesinde, modernleşme sürecinin sürdürülebilirliği için önemli bir rol oynamaktadır. Tarihi kentleşme geleneklerinin devamlılığında, Sanayi ve ticaret hayatının merkezinde yeni imar alanlarının geliştiği kentte oluşan aksların, tarihi kent merkezi odak alınarak geleneksel, sosyolojik ihtiyaçlar doğrultusunda geliştiği görülmektedir.

In the process of its development, intelligent manufacturing often focuses on production flexibility, client customization, and quality control, all of which are required for the manufacture of powder-based metallurgy. In particular, the identification and categorization of defects are crucial steps in the production processes involved in powder-based metallurgy. Intelligent strategies to detect faults in metal parts continue to be a challenge in automated industrial production lines. These techniques have been a particular concern for microscopic metal component producers for a long time. Due to its precision and speed, the YOLOv4 approach has been widely used for object detection. On the other hand, the identification of tiny targets, particularly imperfections on the surface of metal parts, continues to present a number of obstacles and difficulties. To increase the overall performance of detection, this research provided a technique for the detection of tiny objects based on YOLOv4 for such objects. To increase the effectiveness of the detection process, this involves expanding the size of the k detector while simultaneously eliminating unnecessary branches of the YOLO head network. Experiments have shown that the KD-YOLO model performs better than its predecessors, YOLOv4, YOLOv5, and PP-YOLO, in terms of the total number of parameters, classification accuracy and detection precision.

The state of development of innovations in Ukraine is characterized by an increase in development on the basis of start-up projects with the use as a project product of information systems of varying complexity. The article analyzes the weak survivability of the results of start-up projects. The conclusion on the need to predict the stages of develop ment of IT project products based on the analysis of the processes of interaction of users (customers) with the infor mation system (product). In this article, components of the model of forecasting of IT products development of innova tive start-up projects are considered based on the analysis of formed datasets of the interactions of prospective clients. We offered the algorithm of formation of initial datasets based on Customer Journey Map (CJM), which are the tool of fixing of events of the interaction of clients with the system. Examples of models of analogues of clients' travel maps are given, which are the basis for recording and analyzing interactions. This fact is the basis for the formation of appropri ate data sets of large dimension. As a mechanism for processing big data sets and building strategies for IT products development, it is proposed to use a learning neural network. Mathematical models for further modeling and analysis of the obtained results are built. We used a simple linear regression analysis to model the relationship between a single explanatory variable and a continuous response variable (dependent variable). An exploratory data analysis method was applied to the available data to find repetitive patterns and anomalies. In the course of the research, we construct ed a model of linear regression implementation using the gradient optimisation approach. The linear models of the scikit-learn library for the regression task were also applied, and the stabilisation regression method was implemented. Modelling and analysis of the obtained results were carried out, which showed greater efficiency over the extended life cycle of IT project products.

The application of mathematical models using biotic and abiotic factors for the efficient use of fertilizers to obtain maximum economic productivity can be an important tool to minimize the cost of soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) grain yield. In this sense, using Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) is an important tool in studies involving optimization. This study aimed to estimate soybean yield in Luiziana, Paraná state, Brazil, by considering two growing seasons and an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) as a function of the morphological and nutritional parameters of the plants. Results reveal a well-trained network, with a margin of error of approximately 10-5, thus acting as a tool to estimate soybean data. For the phases, model validation and network test, i.e., data that were not part of the training (validation), the errors averaged 10-3. These results indicate that our approach is adequate for optimizing soybean yield estimates in the area studied.

Central nervous system (CNS) tumors comprise nearly 3% of all malignancies world-wide whereas in India it accounts for about 2%. In recent years there has been an increase in CNS tumors with new potential risk factors being observed.

The aim of the present study is to highlight the histopathological spectrum of brain tumors in a single tertiary care centre in Western Odisha.

This retrospective histopathological analysis of CNS tumors was conducted in the Department of Pathology, VIMSAR, Burla, Odisha, India from October 2016 to September 2020. In the span of 4 years, a total of 94 neurosurgical biopsies were studied. Histopathological examination of routinely processed tissue and hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) stained sections of corresponding cases were thoroughly examined. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was done whenever required. Thereafter an approach was made to diagnose the cases, based on WHO classification system of 2016.

A wide range of histopathological spectrum of CNS tumors was observed and was classified according to the WHO classification system of 2016. The primary CNS tumors were graded from Grade I to Grade IV. The most common CNS tumor in our study we found to be Astrocytic tumors (21 cases, 22.34%) followed by Schwannoma (19 cases, 20.21%) and meningiomas (18 cases, 19.14%). The incidence was more among males (59.51%) as compared to females (40.4%).

This study provides an information regarding the prevalence of disease in Western Odisha. Use of modern imaging technique helps to a major extent in making a provisional.

FNAC is an outpatient procedure and has gained importance in mass screening programs. Staining procedure like MGG and Pap is time-consuming and needs trained persons. So there is a need for a staining procedure that is quick and easy to do. In this regard, LG cocktail has been suggested in many kinds of literature. LG cocktail is a combination of both Leishman and Giemsa stains, which has the advantage of both stains.

This is a prospective study at department of pathology, VSSIMSAR Burla. A total of 153 cases were studied from the cytology section. The slides were simultaneously stained with MGG and LG cocktail. The slides were viewed and scored independently by different pathologists. Quality Index (QI) was calculated by dividing this score by the maximum score possible.

Quality index of LG cocktail stain is 0.77 compared to MGG Quality Index 0.61. LG cocktail is better than MGG Stain overall staining quality, cytoplasmic and nuclear staining, and staining of background material.

LG cocktail has better QI than MGG stain. Thus the use of LG cocktail in cytological staining may increase the overall efficacy by saving time and decreasing the manpower need. These two advantages can help us in mass screening programs and its use in the crowded out-patient department.

Blood Donation from healthy screened donors is a well-tolerated procedure. However a small percentage may experience adverse donor reactions. Donor haemovigilance aims at identifying and documenting these reactions for donor safety.

: This prospective cross-sectional study conducted at the Department of Transfusion Medicine & Immunohaematology, Govt. Medical College, Kozhikode, Kerala for a one year study period from January 1st 2018 to December 31st 2018 included all adverse donor reactions and donor determinants in vasovagal reactions in allogenic whole blood donors. Donors were assessed as per the Standard Operating Procedure (S.O.P) based on national guidelines. 350ml collection bags were used. Vasovagal reactions were also graded as per the Blood Donation Reactions Inventory scale (B.D.R.I).

: During the 1 year study period, 1.79% of 27,800 donors experienced adverse reactions. The most common symptoms were pre-syncopal 1.33% with syncope forming only 0.3% and local reactions 0.16%. Correlation with donor characteristics using Pearsons chi square test showed significance for female gender, first timers and lack of adequate sleep (<5 hrs). In our study there was no association with age (S.O.P guidelines) or food intake <4hrs.

Our study reinforces the safety of blood donation with a very low prevalence of adverse reactions. Proper donor counseling and examination noting donor characteristics like adequate sleep, food intake and alleviation of fears and doubts of first timers can play a major role in further reducing the reaction rate and ensuring repeat donors, the need of the hour.

The Covid-19 pandemic brought consequences for many aspects of people’s lives all over the world, such as lockdown, social distancing and reduced accessibility to sports and recreational facilities. The aim of this study was to assess mental state, physical well-being, and motivation to exercise among Polish students of Physical Education and other fields of study, considering their gender, place of living and financial situation. The study involved 1424 students from different universities in Poland. Two questionnaires were used – the EMI-2 to measure motivation to exercise and an original questionnaire to assess daily physical activity, physical and mental well-being. While 31.7% of the students assessed their access to recreational facilities as very poor,71.8% of them rated their financial situation to be average or quite good. Over one-third of the students declared that both their physical and mental well-being (nearly 37% and 33% respectively) were very poor. Among all analyzed motivating factors to exercise, positive health, appearance and strength and endurance were classified as the most important. The importance of different motivating factors differed between the Physical Education students and those of other faculties. To conclude, physical and mental well-being of Polish students during the pandemic was poor. The main reasons were very poor access to recreational facilities, too much time spent in a sitting or lying position daily and insufficient physical activity.

Сахарный диабет 2 типа – одно из самых распространенных коморбидных состояний среди пациентов среднего возраста. С увеличением качества и общей продолжительности жизни продлевается и половая активность, удовлетворѐнность которой крайне важна для мужского населения. Пациенты часто не сообщают о половой дисфункции врачамэндокринологам, что затрудняет своевременную диагностику и фармакокоррекцию патологии. При сахарном диабете отмечается гипогонадизм, который способен привести к снижению либидо, что также способствует прогрессу эректильной дисфункции. Не маловажно поражение сосудов – макро и микроангиопатии, которые возникают у каждого пациента особенно при неудовлетворительном контроле гликемии.
