Authors: Berk Yunus , Ünver Şaban , Avlayan Hasan
Published: November 2021

Background: In this study, the effect of recently popular intermittent fasting on weight loss and the role of exercise combined with intermittent fasting on some physiological parameters were investigated. Aim: This study was conducted to investigate the effect of intermittent fasting combined with exercise and intermittent fasting alone on some physiological parameters. Methods: A total of 36 healthy individuals between 20 and 24 years of age, including 18 in the experimental group (exercising) and 18 in the control group (non-exercising), who were assigned by the random selection method, participated in the study. The individuals in the experimental group exercised 36 minutes a day, 5 days a week, along with intermittent fasting for 30 days. On the other hand, the control group did not exercise during this period. Results: When the within-group pre-test and post-test physiological parameter values were compared, a significant difference was found in all values of the experimental group (p<0.05). Similarly, a significant difference was found in the physiological parameter values of the control group (p<0.05) too, with the exception of body mass index and body fluid ratio. A statistically significant difference was found between the two groups in terms of the mean differences between the pre-test and post-test physiological parameter values (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Based on the findings, it could be concluded that intermittent fasting is an effective method for losing weight and reducing body fat and that adding low-intensity exercise to this routine ensures more effective weight reduction. Hence, starving for a certain period of time has a favorable effect on the physiological parameters, and the practice of exercising in addition to dieting further improves these values.

Most people are more or less related to the web by participating in a kind of social networking site. Semantic Web technology plays a crucial role in these sites as they contain an enormous amount of data about ‎persons, pages, events, places, corporations, etc. This research is a Semantic Web application designed to create a new ‎semantic social community called Socialpedia. It links the already existing social public information to the newly ‎public ones. This information is linked with different information on the web to construct a new immense ‎data container. The resulting data container can be processed using a variety of Semantic Web techniques to produce ‎machine-understandable content. This content shows the promise of using integrated data to improve Web search and ‎Web-scale data analysis, unlike conventional search engines or social ones. This community involves obtaining data ‎from traditional users known as contributors or participants, linking data from existing social networks, extracting ‎structured data in triples using predefined ontologies, and finally querying and inferring such data to obtain ‎meaningful pieces of information. Socailpedia supports all popular functionalities of social networking websites ‎besides the enhanced features of the Semantic Web, providing advanced semantic search that acts as a semantic ‎search engine.

A Comparative Analysis and Prediction over Bitcoin Price Using Machine Learning Technique
Authors:   Chandigarh University, INDIA, Gupta Meenu ,   Chandigarh University, INDIA, Srivastava Riya
Published: November 2021

Bitcoin is one of the primary computerized monetary forms to utilize peer innovation to work with moment installments. The free people and organizations who own the overseeing figuring control and take part in the bitcoin network—bitcoin miners— are accountable for preparing the exchanges on the blockchain and are persuaded by remunerations (the arrival of new bitcoin) and exchange charges paid in bitcoin. These excavators can be considered as the decentralized authority implementing the believability of the bitcoin network. New bitcoin is delivered to the excavators at a fixed yet occasionally declining rate. There is just 21 million bitcoin that can be mine altogether. As of January 30, 2021, there are around 18,614,806 bitcoin in presence and 2,385,193 bitcoin left to be mined. This paper will predict the nature of bitcoin price because, according to the reports of the past few years. The year 2020-present appeared to be a good time for bitcoin because, in this time duration, bitcoin has seen huge ups and downs. This paper will use various Machine Learning Techniques for the predictive analysis of bitcoin to accurately predict the price's nature. As the price of bitcoin depends upon various factors and these factors directly affect the price, i.e., multiple factors of bitcoin are dependent on each other. After analyzing the results from multiple research papers and review papers, we discovered each algorithm has its advantages and disadvantages while predicting the bitcoin value. Keeping in mind all the findings, we will find algorithms that predict the bitcoin price accurately and without fewer disadvantages. So, if we go as per assumptions, regression would be the best choice for predicting the bitcoin value, but there are others algorithms also. So, in this paper, we will see the results of the multiple algorithms and then choose the correct algorithm after analyzing the results of all the implemented algorithms. This paper also includes the implementation of the comparison charts with each algorithm so that it will be easy to analyze the findings of each algorithm.

Security plays a major role in most of the fields including pharmaceutical field. Authorization and Authentication are the key concepts in supporting notable areas of the cyber-health world. HIPAA's (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) ultimate focus is to preserve the privacy of the health records of an individual without disclosing it and preventing the data from unauthorized access. A complaint key management solution is applied over the patient's health records to reduce the risk factor while engaging with cryptographic mechanisms. Though there are many existing cryptographic algorithms such as Elliptic curve cryptography, Elgammal's key exchange algorithm which provides security to the access of patient's health records, the proposed key management solution will overlay the same variant of security to the Electronic Health Records (EHR). This paper provides the countermeasures for improving security and suggests a key recovery mechanism for the protection of keys used in the security mechanism.

Két érv az igazság definiálhatatlansága mellett
Authors: Ónya Balázs
Published: November 2021

Az igazsággal kapcsolatos primitivizmus (alethikus primitivizmus) állítása, hogy az igazság túlságosan alapvető ahhoz, hogy más, alapvetőbbnek vélt fogalmak segítségével meghatározhassuk, vagyis az igazság egy analizálhatatlan, primitív fogalom, illetve tulajdonság. Miközben az alethikus primitivizmus komoly alternatívája a szubsztantív és deflációs igazságelméleteknek, ennek ellenére kevesen próbáltak meg érveket kidolgozni mellette. Dolgozatomban az igazság definiálhatatlansága mellett szóló egyik jól ismert érv bemutatása mellett egy új érv kidolgozásával kísérletezem. Először Gottlob Frege körkörösségi vagy regresszus érvét és az ezt kiegészítő mindenütt jelenvalósági tézisét rekonstruálom, majd George Edward Moore nyitott kérdés argumentumát – amellyel a jó definiálhatatlanságát igyekezett alátámasztani – az igazság definiálhatatlansága mellett szóló érvként használom fel.

The Phonetics and Phonology of Rhotics in Modern Irish
Authors: Anderson Cormac , Jaworski Sylwester
Published: November 2021

This paper examines the phonology and phonetics of rhotics in Modern Irish. Descriptions of the Old Irish language posit four distinct rhotic phonemes, differentiated along the axes fortis-lenis and broad-slender, the same oppositions being relevant also for laterals and coronal nasals. However, descriptions of modern Goidelic dialects typically posit two or three distinct rhotic phenomes. While the distribution and nature of sonorant contrasts has featured strongly in discussions about sound change and phonological patterning in the Insular Celtic languages, there has been little empirical study into the synchronic status of sonorants in contemporary Irish, a point this paper aims to address.

Authors: Parina Elena
Published: November 2021

In our pilot research on polysemy and semantic changes of the Welsh adjective llawn we analyse its use in the language of Dafydd ap Gwilym (ca. 1320–1370), which can easily be done now with the help of the electronic resource www.dafyddapgwilym.net. We put this data in the context of a project on lexical typology, carried out by the Moscow Lexical Typology Group, which aims at describing polysemy patterns in basic adjectives of Russian, Serbian, German, Chinese, Korean, Japanese and other languages of the world. Both the direct and metaphorical meanings of the Welsh llawn are close to what is found in other languages analysed; however, there are certain peculiarities to be addressed.

The Lexicon of Dafydd ap Gwilym's Poetry
Authors: Johnston Dafydd
Published: November 2021

Lexical eclecticism is a well-known characteristic of the fourteenth-century Welsh poet Dafydd ap Gwilym. This paper will offer a preliminary categorisation of the sources of his language, considering on the one hand what he inherited from the earlier poetic tradition and the various discourses of Middle Welsh prose (religious, legal, historiographical), and on the other hand innovations resulting from use of colloquial vocabulary and loanwords from French, English and Irish, as well as new compounds and abstract formations. An attempt will be made to assess the proportion of core vocabulary of the spoken language in his poetry, with due regard to the associated methodological issues. Some conclusions will be drawn about the kinds of evidence which the poetry can provide for the development of the Welsh language during a period of major socio-political change.

This paper addresses questions concerning the place that Vita Sancti Brendani of the Russian National Library (Codex Lat.0.v.I № 199) takes in the manuscript tradition. A Latin manuscript of the twelfth сentury, probably of German origin, contains a version of the Navigatio Sancti Brendani — the prose work, which had greater popularity throughout the Middle Ages than the actual Vitae Brendani. Listing the Navigatio as the Vita, a mediaeval complier followed a widespread fallacy as the latter was unfamiliar to him.

A Review of the electrochemical corrosion of metals in choline chloride based deep eutectic solvents
Authors: Bučko Mihael , Bajat Jelena
Published: November 2021

Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are a class of mixtures with melting points notably lower than those of their raw constituent components. These liquids have found a tremendously wide spectrum of applications in the last two decades of their research, so their contact and interaction with technical metals and alloys are inevitable. Therefore, the corrosivity of DESs towards metals is an extremely important topic. This review summarizes research efforts collected in the last two decades related to the corrosion rate of various metals in different DESs. Since the DESs are mainly composed of organic raw compounds, and by their physicochemical properties they may be regarded as a separate class of ionic liquids, the literature data about DESs corrosivity has been compared to the data related to the corrosivity of various organic solvents and ionic liquids as well. All the results gained until now show significantly low corrosivity of DESs. This observation is discussed in relation to the chemical composition of DESs. The absence of the oxidizing agents, the inhibitory action of organic ions and molecules, high viscosity and low electrical conductivity have been recognized as the main factors contributing to the low metal corrosion rate in DESs.

Background: The study and revision of postgraduates syllabus are very important aspects to promote the level of effectiveness of postgraduates' educations. Owing to the requirement of syllabus reform, especially when the speed of useful life of information in the world is less than a decade, it is a serious aspect for the educational programmers. Objectives: This study aimed to determine the view of biostatistics graduates on the syllabus of the courses, the achievement of learning aims, job requirements, and understanding their educational problems. Methods: The number of graduates was 245 in the levels of master of science (MSc) and PhD of biostatistics from Tehran, Iran, Shahid Beheshti, Tarbiat Modares University of Medical Sciences, and University of Social Welfare and Rehabilitation Sciences. The participants were graduated from 2011 to 2020. The data were collected by a questionnaire and analyzed using SPSS software. Results: Of PhD and MSc graduates, 48 (57.1%) and 70 (43.5%) participants declared, respectively, that they received the necessary theoretical and practical skills that they needed for their job. Also, clinical trial courses in both MSc and PhD periods were chosen by the graduates as the most significant courses, and one of the most applied courses in job requirements. Furthermore, statistical methods at MSc level and longitudinal data analysis at PhD level were chosen as the next important courses by the graduates, respectively. Conclusions: The findings show that the syllabus meets less than half of the graduates' job requirements, so it is not enough and is necessary to reform the contents of educational programs according to their job requirements.

Do free dance movements communicate how we feel? Investigating emotion recognition in dance
Authors: White Sinead , Egermann Hauke
Published: November 2021

Current research into music and free dance movement explores differences in corporeal articulation of basic emotions. Accordingly, Van Dyck et al. (2014, https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0089773) report congruent emotion recognition in free dance movements recorded after happiness or sadness inductions in lay dancers. The current study replicates this previous study with an advanced methodological approach measuring ratings of happiness and sadness recognition separately within both happy and sad conditions. We then tested the differences between the recognition of happiness and sadness in free dance movements. Therefore, a dance movement pre-study was conducted in two different conditions where either happiness or sadness were induced within four lay dancers using guided imagery and music listening. Subsequent to this, dancers were video recorded while moving freely to a neutral piece of music. Those silenced video recordings were then presented to participants (N = 37) in an online experiment, who were instructed to rate the emotion they recognised. Based on the Effort-Shape Theory by Rudolf Laban, observers also rated kinematic features of velocity/acceleration, directness, impulsiveness and expansion. Participants rated higher levels of happiness for the happy-induction condition compared to sadness. However, participants rated higher levels of sadness in the sad condition compared to happiness for just one of the four dancers. This finding indicates that it is easier to recognise happiness in free dance movements than sadness. The results of the kinematic features supported previous research which rated higher intensities for the happy condition than the sad condition.

Histiocytic neoplasms are rare hematologic disorders accounting for less than 1% of cancers of the soft tissue and lymph nodes. Clinical presentation and prognosis of these disorders can be highly variable, leading to challenges for diagnosis and optimal management of these patients. Treatment often consists of systemic therapy, and recent studies support use of targeted therapies for patients with these disorders. Observation (“watch and wait”) may be sufficient for select patients with mild disease. These NCCN Guidelines for Histiocytic Neoplasms include recommendations for diagnosis and treatment of adults with the most common histiocytic disorders: Langerhans cell histiocytosis, Erdheim-Chester disease, and Rosai-Dorfman disease.
Challenges in the Histopathologic Diagnosis of Histiocytic Neoplasms
Authors: Rech Karen L. , He Rong
Published: November 2021

Histiocytic neoplasms, including Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH), Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD), and Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD), present a diagnostic challenge due to nonspecific fibroinflammatory infiltrates and a diverse clinical presentation. The pathologist can play a key role in classification of these disorders through multidisciplinary collaboration and correlation of pathologic features with clinical and radiologic findings. The histopathologic differential diagnosis is broad, requiring knowledge of the possible diagnoses at each specific anatomic site, and a careful assessment to exclude other inflammatory and neoplastic disorders. An immunohistochemistry panel including CD163, CD1a, langerin, S100, Factor XIIIa, OCT2, and BRAF V600E can provide definitive diagnosis in LCH and RDD, whereas ECD requires classic clinical features as well as confirmation of an activating MAPK pathway mutation by genetic studies.
