Authors: Snaider Patricia
Published: August 2023

La Ecología del Paisaje proporciona un marco conceptual y herramientas para estudiar la estructura y la dinámica de los paisajes. Existen algunos índices que analizan la composición y la configuración de los mosaicos, teniendo en cuenta la variabilidad temporal, escalar y espacial en el área de estudio. Esta investigación se aplica a un área localizada en la cuenca del río Tragadero, en el Este de la provincia de Chaco (región Nororiental de Argentina). La escala temporal o momentos de análisis fueron los años 1962 y 2004. Los paisajes son dinámicos y, por ello, su composición y su configuración cambian a lo largo del tiempo, como también permanecen estables o con escasa modificación. Este artículo es una investigación original y completa en el que, mediante un abordaje pluriescalar, a partir de diferentes escalas temporales, espaciales y tipológicas, se puede analizar cada tipo de paisaje y sugerir que conviene trabajar con escalas espaciales de granulometría pequeña o media y con tipologías de gran o media escala.

Experiences of sexual minorities on social media: A study of sentiment analysis and machine learning approaches
Authors: Appiahene Peter , Varadarajan Vijayakumar , Zhang Tao , Afrifa Stephen
Published: August 2023

Nowadays, social media has become a forum for people to express their views on issues such as sexual orientation, legislation, and taxes. Sexual orientation refers to individuals with whom you are attracted and wish to be engaged. In the world, many people are regarded as having different sexual orientations. People categorized as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and many more (LGBTQ+) have many sexual orientations. Because of the public stigmatization of LGBTQ+ persons, many turn to social media to express themselves, sometimes anonymously. The present study aims to use natural language processing (NLP) and machine learning (ML) approaches to assess the experiences of LGBTQ+ persons. To train the data, the study used lexicon-based sentiment analysis (SA) and six distinct machine classifiers, including logistic regression (LR), support vector machine (SVM), naïve bayes (NB), decision tree (DT), random forest (RF), and gradient boosting (GB). Individuals are positive about LGBTQ concerns, according to the SA results; yet, prejudice and harsh statements against the LGBTQ people persist in many regions where they live, according to the negative sentiment ratings. Furthermore, using LR, SVM, NB, DT, RF, and GB, the ML classifiers attained considerable accuracy values of 97%, 96%, 88%, 100%, 92%, and 91%, respectively. The performance assessment metrics used obtained significant recall and precision values. This study will assist the government, non-governmental organizations, and rights advocacy groups make educated decisions about LGBTQ+ concerns in order to ensure a sustainable future and peaceful coexistence.
A holistic framework for interpreting positive clinical outcomes in biotechnology
Authors: Varma Nikil
Published: August 2023

Clinical trials conducted by biotechnology companies are vital to not only the success of their products, but the health and safety of future patients. However, positive study results do not always lead to FDA authorization and subsequent release to the market for numerous reasons including, false positive rates, validity and reliability of outcomes, the significance of results, and the semantics of company communications. Driven by the need to compete within the marketplace, biotechnology companies have motivation to distort and/or present results to make them appear more favorable. As a result, it is important to approach positive clinical trial results with a healthy amount of skepticism and utilize a more holistic approach to evaluating results and determining whether the advertised product should be released into the market.

Authors: Singh Hershdeep , Dua Sanjeev , Dhar Anil , Goel Amitabh , Mahajan Saurabh , Srivastava Priyanshi
Published: August 2023

The epidermoid cysts are true cysts that are often found in the face and less commonly in the trunk and back of the human body. These cysts often have a predilection toward the male gender with the third and fourth decades of age group. They generally arise from the follicular infundibulum, primarily due to plugging of the follicle. Often a part of genetic syndromes, they can also be post-traumatic where the ectodermal cells get stuck or reimplanted. Epidermoid cysts are often a slow-growing and painless lesion with few exceptions. The proper neurological examination, clinical examination, and investigations such as magnetic resonance imaging help in confirming the diagnosis and proceeding with the management. Clinically, epidermoid cysts may or may not present with the neurological impairment. The preferred intervention is total or subtotal resection with minimal chances of complications such as recurrence, swelling, and infection. However, these can very well be avoided by regular follow-up assessments. The clinical presentation in the lower back with massive dimensions is relatively uncommon, and therefore, authors have presented here an unusual case from the outpatient department of neurosurgery, where the patient presented with a large, soft, exophytic lesion at the level of (S4/S5), which gave rise to the suspicion of meningocele and meningomyelocele, but after complete local assessment and radiological investigations, it was diagnosed finally as an epidermoid cyst. Keeping in mind, the clinical profile, socioemographic factors, and metabolic profile, the intervention of surgical total resection was planned, and the patient was managed.
Case report on Caffeys disease in an adolescent with a familial aspect
Authors: Kanjalkar Milind , Jethwa Prachi , Adaniya Atul
Published: August 2023

Caffey’s disease is a bone disorder that most often occurs in babies. It is inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern but not all people who inherit the genetic change develop signs and symptoms. Most people with Caffey’s disease have no further problems related to the disorder after early childhood. Occasionally, another episode of hyperostosis occurs years later. The peculiarity about this case was its presence in the adolescent stage of the child’s growth. This condition is mostly underreported due to its regression in childhood itself, and hence we have reported this unique case. The parents presented with complaints of a different etiology and with complaints of bone pains and deformity since birth. He was diagnosed primarily with Caffey’s disease after ruling out other diagnoses. There is very little literature on Caffey’s disease due to its regression in early childhood.
Headache as the sole manifestation of Wilson’s disease
Authors: Pathania Kanika
Published: August 2023

Wilson’s disease (WD) is an inborn error of copper metabolism caused by a mutation to the copper-transporting gene ATP7B. In the first decade of life, hepatic involvement predominates but neurological manifestations occur in the third or fourth decades. Studies showed Indian children with neuro WD present with behavior abnormality, speech and cognitive impairment, sub-clinical affection of visual pathway, and autonomic function. As a treatable disease, WD should be detected early in the course of the disease by any health professional at any care level, but the rare prevalence of the disease explains the lack of awareness of this disease. Even a high index of suspicion about this entity gets more difficult when the rare and atypical symptom is the only presentation of the disease. Here, we present the case of a 15-year-old girl with worsening headache for the past 3 months as the only neurological manifestation of WD, and that also without any evidence of hepatic involvement.
Mucormycosis of left maxilla: A case report and review
Authors: Poovaraghavan J
Published: August 2023

Mucormycosis is an angioinvasive infection caused by fungi of the Zygomycetes order. Rhizopus is the main pathogen responsible for 90% of cases of cerebral mucormycosis. The term rhinocerebral mucormycosis should be used only in the face, palatal, orbital, paranasal sinus, or brain area. Here, we present the case of a 42-year-old man who presented with complaints of pain and swelling in relation to the left upper back tooth region for the past 20 days. In this case, the patient was immunocompromised due to type II diabetes, as well as COVID hospitalization. This case enlightens the investigation, as well as the management protocol followed by post-operative rehabilitation. Early diagnosis and prompt treatment can significantly reduce the morbidity and mortality of these deadly fungal infections.

Authors: Babu Sarath , George Ditty , Vakayil Johny
Published: August 2023

Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease is a hereditary motor sensory neuropathy affecting about one in 2500 individuals that is characterized by progressive weakness and loss of touch sensation affecting different parts of the body. Despite its significant genetic heterogeneity, CMT is rarely reported in the Indian literature. We report a 10-year-old boy with CMT presented with severe calf pain, bilateral pes cavus deformity, and areflexia. His mother also had similar symptoms, and the diagnosis was confirmed by neuroimaging and nerve conduction studies. This highlights the importance of considering CMT disease in patients with progressive muscle weakness and deformities, especially with a family history of similar symptoms.
The Stock Market Reaction to the 2020 Tokyo Olympics: Evidence from Japanese Sponsors and Taiwanese Olympic-Related Firms
Authors: Lu Huei-Fu
Published: August 2023

Abstract: This study aimed to examine the impact of a major sporting event, the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, on abnormal returns of Japanese sponsors and Taiwanese Olympic-related stock prices during three different periods, including the hosting announcement, the postponement in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the holding as scheduled. Using the event study approach, secondary data were collected to investigate the fluctuation of abnormal returns of official Japanese sponsors and Taiwanese Olympic-related stocks. The empirical evidence showed that Olympics-related news disclosures significantly affected the abnormal returns of official sponsors’ stock prices during both the periods of the hosting announcement and the postponement announcement but not during the period of holding as scheduled. This study also verified that the postponement announcement of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics and its holding as scheduled would generate positive and negative spillover effects on the stock market of a non-host country.

Study on the Relationship between Self-Control and CET-4 from the Perspective of Positive Psychology
Authors: Jiamin Mao
Published: August 2023

In recent years, the perspective of positive psychology has been highlighted in the new trend of second language acquisition research. Self-control is one of the important variables that affect the success of second language acquisition by foreign language learners. Guided by June P. Tangney's theory of self-control, this study explores the relationship between self-control and CET-4 scores of 189 Chinese non-English majors. Its main contents include investigating the level of students' current self-control abilities; whether there are individual differences and gender differences; whether there is an imbalance in the five self-control dimensions; whether there is a correlation between students' self-control abilities and CET-4 test scores. The results show that: 1) Students' self-control abilities are at the middle and slightly higher level, and there are great individual differences; In addition, reliability shows the highest score, but work Ethic is the lowest. 2) Students' self-control, self-discipline, deliberate/non-impulsive action, health habits and work ethic are significantly and positively correlated with their CET-4 scores. 3)There is no significant gender difference between self-control and CET-4. This experiment proves that there is a correlated relationship between self-control and CET-4. Students may better understand their own self-control abilities, which can help them apply useful strategies to improve foreign language learning performance, thereby increasing the effectiveness of second language acquisition.
Towards a Teacher Leadership Model in the Moroccan Dynamic Classroom Environment: Authentic Leadership
Authors: Kamal Assissou , Ben Mhamed Mohamed , Bekou Ali
Published: August 2023

The achievement of positive outcomes in the classroom is not solely dependent on the acquisition of subject expertise and a strong foundation in pedagogical understanding but also on the ability to inspire, motivate, and provide guidance to students. The utilization of the Authentic Leadership (AL) model is proposed as a framework to establish a systematic approach for inspiring others and linking the principles of teacher leadership to the core principles of English Language Teaching (ELT). The AL framework comprises two fundamental concepts, namely authenticity and leadership. The distribution of an inquiry to instructors through social media was facilitated by employing a Google Form. A sample of 50 English teachers hailing from various cities in Morocco responded to the questionnaire. Considering the feedback that participants provided, it can be inferred that teachers possess a subconscious understanding of the various dimensions associated with authentic leadership. However, they encounter numerous obstacles when attempting to incorporate these dimensions into their instructional practices within the classroom setting. This study proposes the establishment of an additional tier within the educational framework of Moroccan schools. The primary objective of this tier is to offer a comprehensive program of professional development for teachers, with the aim of enhancing their pedagogical skills as well as their psychological well-being. This would be achieved through the implementation of the AL model in a systematic manner.
Intimate Partner Violence and Reproductive Coercion: The use of Contraception and Power Dynamics of Patriarchal Society
Authors: Raihen Md Nurul , Tabassum Fariha , Akter Sultana , Sardar Md Nazmul
Published: August 2023

Reproductive coercion has been the primary focus of research on intimate partner violence against women in regard to reproductive health. While studies have taken a look at whether Intimate Partner Violence makes women more or less inclined to use contraception, not much research has been able to provide a comprehensive analysis of the connection between Intimate Partner Violence and reproductive coercion. This particular direction of research has concentrated its attention on both of these aspects when discussing reproductive coercion. It is significant to analyze these things together because it is important to fully understand the condition of reproductive coercion, reproductive choices, and the consequences that modern women are confronting. As a consequence of the negative effects of reproductive coercion on survivors' mental, physical, and emotional well-being, it is imperative that social workers be able to recognize the signs of Reproductive Coercion and provide effective interventions and advocacy on their behalf. The use of contraception in patriarchal power dynamic societies, the relationship between intimate partner violence and reproductive coercion, and the health outcome for women are all issues that could potentially be explained with the use of feminist theory and the constructionist theory that we proposed.
