Published: January 2022

Social media has become a huge part of our culture. From Facebook to Instagram to Pinterest, social media is ingrained in our daily lives. It is becoming more obvious that people live with their phones in their hands and the world at the fingertips. In August 2018, however, the face of social media changed forever when the company Bytedance Ltd. acquired the social media platform formerly known as Musical.ly. Through this merger, TikTok was born, and social media would again evolve. With this evolution in mind, this research sets out to underline how those social media changes affect adult users, if at all. The primary objective is to understand if the TikTok experience changes adults and in what ways through the use of primary and secondary resources. The survey administered to TikTok users within the United States ages 25-40 will provide primary data that will then be compared to secondary resources and publications collecting similar data for different age groups.

Authors: CAN Seniha
Published: January 2022

Ceremonies and rituals formed by blending religious-based principles with culture in the social structure were found important in ottoman society. The nights, which are valuable both in the eyes of the administrators and on the basis,of the public have been tried to be evaluated with the enveloping effect of the belief in the creator and the social unity. The historical function of the place has shown itself effectively with the Laylat al-Qadr Night ceremonies held in the Hagia Sophia Mosque. In this study, it was aimed to reach the information about the Night of Qadr ceremonies held in Hagia Sophia, which was converted into a mosque in accordance with its functionality in the religious field with the conquest of Istanbul, on what foundations and with what rituals it was celebrated by the palace and tebaa within the Ottoman socio-cultural structure. The study is a qualitative research and was prepared by the meyhod of document review covering the literatüre review. It has been seen that the participation of the senior executives of the Ottoman State in the ceremonies of the night of Qadr in Hagia Sophia is an indication of the importance given to the Hagia Sophia mosgue and the night of Qadr. The invitation of foreign protocol guests for this night has allowed the formation of an opinion that directs the foreign point of view on Hagia Sophia, which has been converted from a church to a mosque. The importance of the Night of Qadr ceremonies at the Hagia Sophia Mosque in terms of creating an example of the mystical effect that it has on Muslim and non-Muslim subjects, the relationship of worship and space has been seen. It has been found important that the codes that make up the culture of urban identity manifest themselves as a social gathering place on Hagia Sophia.

Construction development of territories with complex engineering and geological conditions with the presence of unstable rugged relief is a complex geotechnical problem. Issues related to ensuring the safe production of installation work for the construction of any object in such territories relate to a multifactorial problem associated, first of all, with the development of special geotechnical technologies tied to real geotechnical conditions of the relief, loads from existing buildings and structures and, secondly, real their implementation at a specific construction site. Modern geotechnical construction has in its arsenal methods and technologies for solving these complex problems. The use of advanced computer programs such as GeoWall, GeoStab, Plaxis, etc. allows the development of geotechnical objects of any complexity. To identify the most appropriate geotechnical technology, it should be mandatory to use the interactive design method. This is “a developed project - an experimental site - a real project”. Moreover, this type of design should be multivariate using various geotechnical technologies and geotechnical structures. The feasibility study of all elements in interactive design is of no small importance. Any element in the design must be economically feasible and technically feasible. The considered case from the geotechnical practice of the construction of the object confirms the fact that thanks to the availability of modern design and production tools, it is possible to solve any complex problems.

This review address cisplatin-induced hearing loss and various strategies tested to prevent this adverse effect. Cisplatin ototoxicity molecular pathways are still being investigated. Through the action of several transporters cisplatin enters targeted cells in the cochlea. After it enters the cochlea once, is retained for months to years. Cisplatin can inhibit protein synthesis, cause DNA damage and generate reactive oxygen species that can lead to inflammation and apoptosis of outer hair cells, resulting in permanent hearing loss. To prevent cisplatin ototoxicity utilized antioxidants, transport inhibitors, G-protein receptor agonists, and anti-inflammatory agents. There are no Food And Drug Administration-approved drugs to prevent cisplatin ototoxicity. Based on the long-term retention of cisplatin in the inner ear, any approved medication should either prevent passage of cisplatin into the inner ear or have the capability to continually protect against ototoxicity for months to years. Objective: “This study starts to explain why patients who receive the drug sustain hearing loss,” Although corticosteroids may help to mitigate the ototoxic side effects of cisplatin, there are complications associated with their systemic and prolonged use “This is very important, because as we come to understand how cisplatin related hearing loss occurs, over time we may figure out a way to block it, or at least diminish its effects.”

This abstract describes the rational development of novel drugs design for treating cancers based on the information provided by the sequencing of Human Genome. Out of 24,000 genes in our Genome, sixteen thousand genes code for good proteins that keep us healthy. Six thousand mutated genes are identified which are responsible for causing six thousand different diseases including cancers. The most obvious approach is to design drugs to shut off mutated genes that code for wrong protein. Professor Ross was the first person to use a highly toxic chemical called Nitrogen Mustard developed during the World Wars to shut off a cancer-causing gene. Nitrogen Mustard can cross-link double stranded DNA and shut off a gene. Unfortunately, it has no selectivity. It cross-links all rapidly dividing cells both normal and abnormal cells. This abstract also describes the use of a novel class of drugs called Aziridines which acts as a Prodrug. It does not attack all dividing cells, Aziridines are activated in the presence of acid. As cancer cells grow rapidly, they use Glucose as a source of energy. In cancer cells, Glucose is broken down to produce Lactic Acid. It is the acid that activate Aziridine ring which opens to attack a single strand of DNA shutting off the genes. Over the years, we developed over a hundred analogs of Aziridines and tested against an experimental animal tumor called the Walker Carcinoma 256 in Rats. One compound, Aziridine dinitro-benzamide (CB1854) is found to be seventy times more toxic to cancer cell. Using the same rationale, we translated animal work in human making AZQ (US Patent 4,146,622 & 4,233,215) for treating Glioblastoma, a solid aggressive brain tumor in human. A new approach to treat Breast Cancer is also described.

Solitary fibrous tumors (SFT) are rare entities that can arise from almost any tissue. The treatment of choice is always complete surgical resection, which may require major reconstructions. We report a case of a 49 year old man with a recurrent SFT of the orbit and anterior skull base, who underwent eight surgical procedures. A craniofacial resection was successfully performed. The reconstruction was made with an anterolateral thigh flap, and a titanium mesh. Management of these tumors is always challenging. They must be approached by a specialized multidisciplinary team, with adequate preoperative planning
Current Biosensors Used for Early Detection of Lung Cancer Biomarkers

Cancer, the abnormal and uncontrolled cell growth due to an accumulation of specific genetic and epigenetic defects, has posed a particular threat to human health which makes it to be ranked third in Kenya as a cause of death after infectious and cardiovascular diseases. The unregulated cell growth leads to the formation of a tumor, which after some period of time spreads beyond the site of origin and metastasizes to other body organs and systems, making it incurable. Early detection of cancer (long before the tumor is perceived) greatly increases the chance of curability, and is the point of focus for many cancer researchers. Lung cancer is the primary cancer threatening human life worldwide and its mortality rate has not decreased for a number of years. The mortality rate can be reduced by early diagnosis and subsequent treatment, for example if the serum proteins, microRNA, tumor-associated antigens, are detected in elevated amounts in the blood of potential lung cancer patients using a highly sensitive biosensor. Throughout the years, researchers worldwide have extensively investigated many screening modalities for lung cancer detection, including chest radiograph (CRG), computed tomography (CT), low-dose CT (LDCT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and positron emission tomography (PET) and biopsy. However, these techniques are not suitable for patients with other pathologies. Developing a rapid and sensitive technique for early diagnosis of lung cancer plays an important role in early diagnosis and subsequent treatment. The typical methodologies limit the applications due to the low selectivity, low sensitivity, high cost, low stability and invasive procedure. Tumor markers as biochemical parameters can reveal cancer occurrence and progression, which show selectivity, stability sensitivity, convenience, and low cost in developing biosensors, and act as good prospect for fabricating biosensors of detecting lung cancer. This review portrays several biosensors (2010-2019) for detection of lung cancer biomarkers. To start with, cancer in general and Lung cancer has been briefly described focusing on the screening methods that have been used for lung cancer. The currently used diagnostic tools for lung cancer with their advantages and disadvantages is also portrayed. overview of the application of transducers used, including optical, mass-based, electrochemical and calorimetric biosensors, in lung cancer detection, together with the advantages and disadvantages of the development of new biosensors. Finally, the recent challenges and further opportunities for developing effective biosensors for early diagnosis of lung cancer are discussed.

Background: Pituitary macro adenomas are benign in origin, mass effects of which, may lead to serious clinical symptoms such as visual impairments, chronic headache, and pituitary insufficiency. The visual disturbance in pituitary macro adenomas range from dimness of vision to bilateral total loss of vision. Visual field defect is one of the common presentations of pituitary macro adenomas. They usually results in bitemporal hemianopia by causing compression on optic chiasm. Our main objective of this study was to evaluate the changes of visual field in relation with cranio-caudal diameter of pituitary macro adenoma. Methods and Materials: This cross-sectional, observational study was carried out at Department of Neurosurgery, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University, Shahbag, Dhaka from April, 2019 to September, 2020. Thirty six patients with pituitary macro adenomas underwent visual field analysis using Humphrey Field Analyzer30-2 program at Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University. Correlation betweenmean deviation of visual field with craniocaudal diameter of pituitary macroadenomas, volume of tumor, duration of sypmtoms were observed. Results: This study was conducted on 67 eyes of 36 patients including 22 male and 14 female subjects with mean age of 39.00 years and histologically proven pituitary adenoma. Mean cranio-caudal diameter was 31.72 mm. Highest number of patients had cranio-caudal diameter of 32-41 mm with mean deviation of -12.95 dB and -12.24dB in right and left eye respectively. Regarding correlation of mean deviation of visual field with cranio-caudal diameter of pituitary macro adenoma, Pearson correlation showed that r value was -0.358(p-value0.044) in right eye and -0.527(p-value 0.012) in left eye. Conclusion: When pituitary macro adenomas grow in vertical direction it results in deterioration of visual field by compressing optic chiasma. The present study ascertains that there is significant correlation between the cranio-caudal diameter of pituitary macro adenoma and deviation visual field.

One of the mechanisms that has an important role in the differentiation of stem cells into more specialized cell types during embryonic development is the methylation of genomic DNA. Like other epigenetic mechanisms, DNA methylation also functions as the interface of control unit of DNA-protein relationship after embryonic development and even at all stages of ontogeny. For this reason, errors that occur in the realization of DNA methylation in embryogenesis and ontogeny appear as different pathologies and are reflected in the clinic as different diseases. It is known that the application of electromagnetic field (EMF) has a healing and supportive effect on human health with studies conducted in different fields of medicine. The effects of the electromagnetic field on cancer cells have also been evaluated from different perspectives by numerous studies. One of these important effects is the effects that occur at the epigenetic level. In addition, the effect of temozolomide (TMZ), which is an important agent used in cancer treatment, is directly related to epigenetic mechanisms and net DNA methylation. There are some deficiencies in the studies conducted on this subject. For example, the extent to which the O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) promoter methylation is affected while the electromagnetic field affects cancer cells. No any significant data exist about the effect of electromagnetic field on MGMT promoter methylation. The aim of this study is to pay attention on whether EMF can affect promoter methylation and whether MGMT promoter methylation is being affected from it.
Various Prosthetic ACL Grafts: A Review of Literature Various Prosthetic ACL Grafts: A Review of Literature

Published: January 2022

Satisfactory prosthetic replacement of the ACL has been a focus of orthopaedic research endeavours for the past thirty years. Desires to provide immediate mobility and strength to the ACL-deficient knee while avoiding the donor site morbidity caused by the commonly used autograft surgical techniques continually drive new research initiatives. Most of the grafts that have been developed to date have failed due to unsatisfactory long-term physiologic and functional performance. Most permanent ACL prostheses are prone to creep, fatigue, and mechanical failure within several years after implantation. Tissue ingrowth scaffolds and ligament augmentation devices require further refinement to provide effective mechanical support while avoiding stress shielding of the host tissue. In view of these factors, prosthetics are not widely used today in ACL reconstruction, and autogenous tissue grafts remain the gold standard used by the majority of surgeons. Perhaps development of resorbable, tissueinducing and cell-seeded biomaterials will improve the long-term biomechanical performance of the reconstructed anterior cruciate ligament. Advances in tissue engineering combined with developments in molecular biology and gene therapy may couple with the rapid gains in computer-assisted surgery to provide improved options for the ACL-deficient knee, with a greater potential to restore its pre-injury state.

ASSURE: Adopting Statistical Significance for Understanding Research and Engineering
Authors:   Independent Scholar, Past Lecturer at Politecnico di Torino, Turin, Italy, Galetto Fausto
Published: January 2022

We start with the question “Is Statistical Significance outdated?” The question is originated by a set of papers suggesting leaving out the use of Statistical Significance; the cause of that idea depends on the fact that many researchers identify the “bad p-values” with the concept of Statistical Significance.We will consider the various concepts involved, we will show the idea of Confidence Interval (with a larger view that in the Statistics and Probability books), we will give examples related to Control Chart with Non_Normal distributed data [and the wrong T Charts, very much considered in medical settings, using Minitab, SPSS, SAS, …]; we will suggest to abandon the p-values by showing that they discard the degrees of freedom used to compute them, when one wants to pool the results of various samples.Many Statisticians, Certified Master Black Belts, practitioners, workers, students, all over the world, are learning wrong methods and will take wrong decision.We suggest the form of Confidence Interval to be CI(H0, n, g, 1-CL, Distribution), where H0=Null Hypothesis, n=the physical sample size, g=the number of the random variables that provided the collected data (form which we get the Degrees of Freedom), CL=the Confidence Level (used to compute the CI, 1-CL=α) and Distribution=the type of the distribution of the random variables that provided the collected data (e.g., Normal Exponential, Poisson, Inverse Normal, Weibull, …)

This study presents an experimental investigation on the effect of artificial aggregate utilization fracture and permeability properties of concretes. For this, two types of artificial aggregates, namely, artificial fly ash aggregate (AFA) from cold bonding agglomeration process of fly ash and Portland cement and artificial slag aggregate (ASA) from cold bonding agglomeration process of ground granulated blast furnace slag and Portland cement, were replaced with natural aggregate as coarse aggregate. Moreover, to investigate the influence of water-to-cement ratio, three different water-to-cement ratios of 0.35, 0.45, and 0.55 were considered in the concrete production. The concretes were tested for the mechanical property in terms of as compressive strength, modulus of elasticity, and splitting, net flexural strength, and fracture energy and also permeability property such as water sorptivity, water penetration, gas permeability, and resistance to chloride ion penetration. The test results were also analyzed by means of statistical technique, namely, GLM-ANOVA. It was found that the use of cold bonded fly ash and slag aggregates were very effective on the performance characteristics of concretes depending on w/c ratio.

Haemoglobin contains iron in a ferrous form. When the iron is oxidized, it is called Methaemoglobin (MetHb). MetHb leads to tissue hypoxia, cyanosis, and secondary polycythemia. Methaemoglobinaemia is acquired or congenital. In this case, a 22-years-old male patient presented with cyanosis, headache, and lack of concentration. Cyanosis was present since birth. His previous investigations showed polycythemia. He was misdiagnosed on multiple occasions and was undergoing venesections for polycythemia. On evaluation at a private clinic, an Oxygen saturation gap was noted between the results of the pulse oximeter and arterial blood gas analyzer. This raised suspicion on the presence of MetHb. He was referred to Air Force Institute of Pathology, Rawalpindi for further workup.The sample obtained for MetHb was chocolate brown in colour. Analysis was done via co-oximetry. A high level of MetHb (45.6%) was obtained.

The academic world still needs to conduct sustained research on the topic in order to fully throw a light on the importance that EE has on the society and its decisive role in transforming it. Economic, financial and EE has gained new dimensions lately, with an important raise of the focus both in theory and practice. This research studies the need for EE and financial literacy. In Europe, recent surveys show that young people acknowledge their lack of knowledge regarding entrepreneurship and state that schools should help them have an entrepreneurial mindset and know more about finances. In today’s dynamic environment and especially after the covid-19 crisis, the need on the workplace has changed and the skills that can be acquired through entrepreneurship and financial training and acknowledged by scholars, population, businesspeople and media as vital for the way things work in today’s economy. Teaching individuals how to think entrepreneurial becomes even more important in times of crises, or in a dynamic environment, where creativity, adaptability and innovation are key for survival. Key trends and developments are analyzed and the actors involved in shaping and raising awareness regarding financial illiteracy and the need for EE. This paper combines literature review methods and it also develops a conceptual debate around the research conducted in the field of EE with the purpose of contouring a consolidated methodological approach based on the so-far experience linked with today’s challenges. Due to the fact that EE is now one of the fastest growing research subjects in the world, an important emphasis has to be placed on the comprehension of the connection between business management practices and the academic theory, as research has previously indicated. The outcome of this analysis aims to throw more light to understanding the evolution EE has had and provides an overview of the relevant trends in the field.

The way people carry out their daily activities has changed with digitalization. The digitalization process has highlighted its own effects on the economy as well as on society. Also, the way people travel has changed in terms of digitalization. Opportunities offered by this digitization process bring significant potential benefits. Thus, this paper proposes to make a brief foray and analyze the official documents that speak, plan and design the digital economy, which provides a set of projections of the digitalization of the economy, especially in the field of tourism. The analysis will be theoretical. In addition, this paper aims to give a brief overview of the current framework of the digital economy and to provide an analysis of the degree of involvement of public authorities at national level in the digitization of tourism in European countries and the number of online bookings in the same countries.

ince 2010, the European Commission, through the Communication “Europe, No1 World Tourism Destination – A New Political Framework for Tourism in Europe”, has drawn the attention to the fact that local / urban tourism strategies should be essential to the way in which cities promote or limit the extension of tourism services; thus, the increase in the number of tourists in cities and the lack of local tourism policies can lead to negative pressures on the local (environmental, cultural and social) environment. In the research, we will analyze how the explosive economic growth trend of the analyzed region (in our case due to the massive absorption of European funds for urban infrastructure and for industrial development) has positively or negatively affected the tourism sector of the area. The objective of the research will be: identification of local officials with the elaboration and implementation of sustainable tourism policies related to sustainability and identification of specific factors of influence – local vision on sustainability, local action instruments and, implicitly, the tourist flow generated compared to the economic growth level of the region. From a methodological point of view, the research combines two levels of analysis: the comparative analysis of local economic development plans and strategies with local tourism policies as well as the comparative analysis of economic growth indicators of the region with the tourism indicators for the chosen period. A comparison between local development strategies and local tourism policies allows us to identify whether the growth of the tourist phenomenon in the region is a mere consequence of the development of the region or it is based on a strategic thinking of tourism development. The idea behind this research is based on the fact that other studies have demonstrated that the notion of sustainable tourism in major European cities remains out of the local political agenda, without discussing possible conflicts between urban tourism and negative externalities.

SMEs represent a large share of the enterprises on the national and EU level. This article proposes to examine the applicability of CSR policies for SMEs. SMEs differ from large enterprises in many aspects of their financing, functioning, culture and relationship with shareholders and stakeholders. SME social responsibility practices cannot solely be judged by the same measure as the CSR practices of large enterprises due to the inherently different nature of the different sized enterprises.
