Novel applications of artificial intelligence, machine learning, and deep learning-based modalities in dental traumatology: An overview of evidence-based literature
Authors: Khan Mohammad Kamran
Published: October 2024

In recent years, contemporary digital dentistry is rapidly evolving as a paradigm shift or revolutionary change in traditional dentistry for delivering high quality of dental care to patients. A significant contribution in the transformation of the dentistry field has been made from the advent of artificial intelligence (AI) and its subsets. Dental traumatic injuries are considered global public health concern. Hence, novel technological advancements, innovations, developments, and high-quality research are needed in the realm of dental traumatology to explore and analyze the various aspects of traumatic dental injuries (TDIs) for ameliorating the dental treatment outcomes. Recently, there have been several studies published pertaining to applications of AI and its subsets (i.e., machine learning and deep learning) in the arenas of dental traumatology. Different facets of TDIs have been delved scientifically using different applications of AI. However, to date, there is no review article published in the available literature in this regard. Therefore, the aim of the current review article was to explore and unveil the findings from the relevant literature pertaining to different applications of AI in the domain of dental traumatology. In this review article, the important findings from the relevant studies have been highlighted in the narrative way. This review would be quite insightful for the dental professionals and researchers in regard to the current status and overview of available literature about the scientific studies and innovative applications of AI in dental traumatology.
Scalarity and divided consent: analysing rape
Authors: Baker Dennis J
Published: October 2024

In this essay, it is submitted that consent comes in degrees and the wrongfulness and harmfulness of conduct is contingent on the degree of voluntariness underwriting the particular consent decision. A fully free decision to consent changes the normative nature of the act: genuine gift-giving is not theft. Lovemaking is not rape. Partially free decisions to consent can change the nature of the act if it makes the act less harmful and thus less wrongful. Partial consent is not about claiming that the conduct was partially justified, but rather about demonstrating the particular act was less harmful and thus deserving of a less serious crime label than is found in the label rape simpliciter. A second theme picked up in this essay is the issue of conditional consent. It is submitted that breaching a condition (conditions such as D is rich, D is a pacifist, D does not have HIV and so on) of consent to sexual intercourse will not change otherwise consensual nature of the sexual intercourse itself, but it may give rise to criminal liability for the collateral harm caused such as HIV infection.
Servi legum sumus, or We Are Slaves of the Law
Authors: Zajadło Jerzy
Published: October 2024

In the discussion on the procedure for determining the risk of violating the rule of law under Article 7 (1) in connection with Article 2 TEU, it is sometimes alleged that it is difficult clearly to determine the content of the term “rule of law”. Thus, according to some, the whole procedure suffers from the flaw of arbitrary assessment, since allegedly there is no precisely defined standard of assessment.

The main purpose of this article is to show that despite everything we are able to reconstruct the hard core of the rule of law, because its concept is deeply rooted in the long history of European legal culture. The author shows it on the example of Cicero’s political philosophy, especially on one sentence from his famous Oratio pro Cluentio: “The law has its ministers in our magistrates, its interpreters in our jurors; it makes servants of us all only to set us free”.
Petrographic, Mineralogical and Geo-mechanical Characteristics of Marble from Mohmand District, Pakistan: Implications for its Use in Construction Industry
Authors: Anjum Naveed , Hidayat Hamza , Ali Nowrad , Iqbal Usman , Yazdi Abdollah
Published: October 2024

This study aims to evaluate the suitability of marble deposits from Mohmand district for use in theconstruction industry. By employing an integrated approach that combines petrographic analysis, chemicalassessments, and physico-mechanical testing, the study seeks to provide a comprehensive understanding of themarble's properties. Although, megascopically indistinguishable, the petrographic analysis identifies twovarieties of carbonate rocks: Calcitic-marble and dolomitic-marble. The marble from the Sapari quarry ispetrographically fine to medium grained and dominantly composed of subhedral to anhedral calcite (84-86%),dolomite (8-10%), quartz (6-8%) and trace amount of micrite and hence classified as calcitic-marble. Owing toless contents of dolomite and unstrained quartz, the calcitic-marble reveals very low reactive quartz andmagnesium in the rock, hence no expansion if used in concrete with ordinary Portland cement (OPC). Thepetrographic and chemical investigations, therefore, endorse their innocuous non-reactive character for bothalkali silica reactivity (ASR) and alkali carbonate reactivity (ACR). In contrast, the marble from QaroonGhundai quarry is mineralogically dolomitic and texturally fine grained, where subhedral to anhedral dolomiteconstitutes the major phase (97˗98 %), while quartz and micrite occur as the minor phases. The results of thecube test of the dolomitic-marble demonstrate an expansion by 0.28 % which lies above threshold limit of0.10% thus endorse the potential to initiate ACR. Hence, this marble is declared deleterious with respect toACR. With the exception of soundness value, the dolomitic-marble produces relatively higher values for UCS,specific gravity, bulk density, LA and Schmidt hammer as compared to the calcitic-marble. The comparativeanalysis shows that the calcitic-marble is suitable for high alkali cement-concrete and asphalt-works as a coarseaggregate. Alternatively, the dolomitic-marble is only declared suitable for asphalt-based concrete due to itsACR potential, which endorses the significance of mineralogy and textures in controlling the physical andmechanical properties of rocks.

The Civil Society of Ancient Rome
Authors: Anvar Allamuratov
Published: October 2024

The article explores the Roman concept of civitas, which defined their society as a civil collective bound by shared rights, duties, politics, religion, and ideology. Cicero described civitas as encompassing common laws, justice, and social ties. Unlike Greek polis, Roman citizenship was managed by high magistrates like the censor, emphasizing a hierarchical structure. Roman voting operated on a "one centuria - one vote" principle, differing from the Greek model, and Romans extended more rights to outsiders. Land ownership linked citizenship, with communal land (ager publicus) available for rent. The city boundary (pomerium) had religious importance, protecting civic life. The Romans valued freedom (libertas) and upheld collective values like dignity, courage, and piety. Ancestral customs (mores maiorum) and historical memory were central, maintained through ceremonies and funerary traditions. Debate exists on whether the Roman civitas was a state, with differing views across German, Anglo-American, and Southern European historians. Scholars also disagree on how long the civitas remained a polis-like entity, with opinions ranging from its decline in the 1st century BC to its influence in the Mediterranean empire.

Authors: Triki Mohamed Bilel
Published: October 2024

Objectives: We aimed to explore the relationship between WFH, quality of air on the other hand and health problems in Saudi public health sector in the context of SDG during the COVID-19 pandemic.
 
Theoretical Framework: Air pollution, in general, because of its position at the interface with the external environment, the respiratory system is the first target of atmospheric pollutants, and many epidemiological studies link high levels of atmospheric pollution to pulmonary effects (Thurston, Kipen et al., 2017).
 
Method: A cross-sectional survey was conducted on workers in the health sector in the Riyadh region during the period during the month of October of the year 2022 in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. We collected data from using a questionnaire that was disseminated for 933 employers in health sector. Using cross-sectional models, we estimate our relationship.
 
Results and Discussion: Using cross-sectional models, teleworking thus carries multiple physical risks and indoor air pollution affect mental and physical risks, which have all been greatly aggravated by the health crisis.
 
Research Implications: The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia pays great attention to the means of controlling and controlling the sources of air pollution emissions. Whereas the Saudi General Authority for Meteorology and Environmental Protection must make an effective contribution within the international community system through international environmental agreements and treaties and protocols regulating international efforts.
 
Originality/Value: This is the first work that explore the relationship between working from home, indoor air pollution and SDG during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Objective: This review synthesized evidence on the use of body weight exercises through high-intensity interval training (HIIT-BW). Methods: The research was performed in the Science Direct, Embase, MEDLINE, PEDro, SciELO, CINAHL, and LILACS databases from 2013 to 2023. Descriptors such as: high-intensity whole-body, high-intensity functional training, whole-body, whole-body training, whole-body calisthenics, high-intensity calisthenic training, and HIIT bodywork were used. In addition, original articles in English and Portuguese that addressed body weight HIIT were included. The final analysis consisted of 12 articles. Results: HIIT-BW protocols presented varied methodological characteristics: number of series ranged from 4 to 20; stimulus time ranged from 5 to 30 seconds with all-out intensity; and the passive interval ranged from 10 to 35 seconds between the series in 11 studies. The acute responses resulted in psychophysiological changes, increased lactate, Rated Perceived Exertion (RPE), heart rate (HR), fatigue, sweating rate, body size perception, training load, maximum oxygen volume (VO2max), caloric expenditure, perception of recovery, feeling of anger, mood disorder, intention of physical activity and reduction in the perception of pleasure, variability in HR, number of movements in complex exercises, and vigor. When compared with moderate continuous exercise and other high-intensity interval training protocols, HIIT-BW presented similar responses, however the use of preferred songs in the session provided an increase in the number of movements and perception of pleasure when compared with sessions that used non-preferred music and without music. Conclusion: In conclusion, based on data from studies found in the literature, HIIT-BW sessions promote increased feelings of fatigue, anger, mood disorder, RPE, HR, lactate, sweating rate, body size perception, caloric expenditure, and VO2. The results found helped to project indicators of long-term physical fitness and to plan sessions aimed at improving the lifestyle of its practitioners.

NUMBER AS THE ESSENCE OF THINGS: PYTHAGOREAN PHILOSOPHY
Authors: Sadullaeva Matluba
Published: October 2024

The article discusses how Pythagorean philosophy evolved from seeing numbers as the basis of everything to understanding them as essential principles shaping the universe. It emphasizes the practical and philosophical significance of numbers, exploring their role in various fields like math, science, and ethics. Pythagoreans viewed numbers not just as tools for counting but as fundamental aspects of existence itself. They focused on two key principles: unity (monad) and duality (duad), seeing them as foundational concepts in understanding both numbers and reality[23]. The text also compares Pythagorean ideas with those of later philosophers like Plato, Iamblichus and others. Overall, it explores the profound implications of seeing the world through the lens of numbers.
The influence of various risk factors on the formation of secondary organic mental disorders in elderly people with alcohol dependence formed in middle and old age
Authors:   Patrice Lumumba Peoples’ Friendship University of Russia, Moscow, Russia, Kardashyan Ruslan A. , Efremov Alexander A. ,   Central State Medical Academy of the Office of the President of the Russian Federation, Moscow, Russia
Published: October 2024

Background. Alcohol slows down the work of the brain and central nervous system, leads to deterioration of memory and concentration, cognitive disorders, and the formation of organic mental disorders. Due to the retirement of elderly people, some of them resort to taking alcohol as an adaptogen to alleviate various social, mental and psychological disorders, which can lead to the emergence of new or exacerbation of existing somatic disorders, the formation of alcoholism, as well as organic mental disorders. Aim. To investigate the risk factors (RF) for the formation of secondary organic mental disorders (SOMD) in elderly people with alcohol dependence (AD), formed in middle and old age. Patients and methods. The study included only male patients for the purity of the study aged 60 to 74 years (average age 67.5±7.2), who were divided into 2 groups depending on the age of occurrence of AD: group 1 – 21 people (36.2%), AD occurred at the age of 51.6±1.2 years, and the symptoms of SOMD at 61.8±2.1 years; group 2 – 37 people (63.8%), AD occurred at the age of 64.5±2.5 years, and SOMD at 71.3±2.8 years. The following methods were used: questionnaire – using the developed "Anamnestic chart", clinical (anamnesis collection), statistical (parametric and nonparametric). Results. The main factors of the formation of SOMD in people with formed AD in middle and old age are combinations of various RF, as well as a monofactor in the form of chronic alcohol abuse, the proportion of which varies depending on the age of AD formation. Conclusion. When AD is formed in old age, combinations of RF have a greater influence on the development of SOMD. And in the formation of AD in middle age, both alcohol, as an exogenous mono-damaging factor, and a combination of RF contribute to the formation of SOMD. Hereditary burden of alcoholism affects the progrediency of alcoholism, but does not play a role in the rate of formation of SOMD. The formation of alcoholism in middle age is combined with a relatively slow rate of formation of SOMD and a smaller number of associated somatic pathology, and when formed in old age – with a relatively fast rate of development of SOMD and a large number of associated somatic pathology.
Mentorship of Academics in Higher Education Institutions: A Scoping Review and Future Research Agenda
Authors: Luben Sakarias Salmie , Neema Michael , Julian du Plessis Davy
Published: October 2024

This paper aims to suggest a normative mentorship model that can contribute to the efficiency of academics at higher learning institutions. Furthermore, the article is focused on promoting a follow-up normative mentorship model based on primary data to be collected at the Namibia University of Science and Technology in Windhoek, Namibia. The research employed a scoping review using the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews, a meta-analysis (Prisma) flow chart for the literature studied for this article, and qualitative content analysis to achieve the research objective. This objective included examining the benefits of mentoring strategies for mentors and mentees and exploring the challenges of mentoring strategy. The study’s findings revealed that mentorship practices generally contribute significantly to academics’ research productivity, enhancing their workload efficiency and giving them a crucial role in the development of graduate students and faculty members. The paper also details how mentorship strategies are challenged by both the dynamic process of a mentorship process and balancing the mentors’ capabilities with their responsibilities. The paper concludes that the mentorship of academics produces many favorable work outcomes, such as academic adjustment to organizational culture, career development and advancement, promotion, job satisfaction and constructive participation in the organization. Based on the findings, the study recommended that serious consideration and implementation of a formal mentoring strategy is required when institutions of higher learning mentorship strategies or frameworks are not formally recognized or implemented. Moreover, performance indicators should be clearly stated to ensure that the mission and vision of the institution are accomplished and that a conducive learning environment should be embraced. In conclusion, before the normative mentorship model can be implemented, all the various stakeholders in the academic ecosystem can buy into ensuring effective implementation and continuous monitoring and evaluation of the sustainable mentorship model for the benefit of most stakeholders, the students.

NUR AKHMAD ALBAR. Assessing Accountants' Perceptions on the Importance of Information Technology at the Regional Inspectorate of South Sulawesi (supervised by Mahfud Nurnajamuddin and Asriady Bakri). This study rigorously aims to investigate and elucidate the perspectives about the information technology competencies required by government accountants. Descriptive qualitative research is employed in this study. Data collection technique was carried out through interviews with 3 informants working as accountants. The study's findings demonstrate that while all elements of information technology expertise are deemed relevant, government accountants are not required to possess all facets of IT expertise because the level of the skills needed varies based on the duties and position of each government accountant. The amount of expertise required by each accountant in each area of IT might differ depending on the complexity of the task, the demands of the work, and their own skill set.

Published: October 2024

O presente artigo tem como objetivo analisar os resultados obtidos da atuação da Patrulha Maria da Penha no âmbito do 12º Batalhão de Polícia Militar do Estado do Paraná, na condição de equipe especializada e com dedicação exclusiva para o atendimento de casos de violência doméstica, após um ano de implantação no âmbito da Unidade Operacional, que vem atuando com viés eminentemente preventivo, objetivando reduzir a ocorrência de novos casos de violência familiar, mas também contemplando ações repressivas, com fito de prisão em flagrante de criminosos e buscando ofertar o suporte imediato às vítimas, para fins de evitar a repetição dos atos ilícitos. Todavia, para se entender de forma ampla o atual cenário de emprego desta equipe especializada e sua importância para PMPR e para sociedade paranaense, apresenta-se, primeiramente, um apanhado acerca da própria Lei Maria da Penha (desde sua criação, avanços históricos), para, num segundo momento, demonstrar o caminho que a Corporação percorreu nos últimos anos, desde a implementação da filosofia de Polícia Comunitária, adotada há décadas pela PMPR, para então chegarmos à criação das Patrulhas Maria da Penha, que seguem totalmente nesta mesma filosofia.
Optimising nanoparticles: harnessing quality by design through 3-level factorial design and box-behnken methodology
Authors: R Saravanan
Published: October 2024

Nanoparticles (NPs) have become essential elements in a number of scientific and industrial domains, such as materials research, drug delivery, and diagnostics, because of their special qualities and potential for focused uses. An ideal formulation procedure is essential to maximising the effectiveness and efficiency of nanoparticles. In order to optimise the formulation and production processes for nanoparticles, this research investigates the application of Quality by Design (QbD) principles in conjunction with sophisticated statistical approaches, namely the 3-level factorial design and the Box-Behnken methodology. The Quality by Design methodology is a methodical approach that prioritises predetermined goals, in-depth process comprehension, and careful control grounded in reliable science and quality risk management. When QbD is incorporated into nanoparticle optimisation, reliable and repeatable formulations that adhere to specifications with little variation are guaranteed. To look into how different factors interact and affect the properties of nanoparticles, the 3-level factorial design is used. With this design approach, a thorough understanding of the process variables can be obtained by exploring a broad variety of component values. Critical quality attributes (CQAs) include important parameters such drug encapsulation efficiency, zeta potential, polydispersity index (PDI), and particle size. These parameters are methodically examined to determine the ideal amounts of each. To further refine the 3-level factorial design, the Box-Behnken methodology is applied. Without the requirement for extensive combination testing, this response surface methodology (RSM) is especially useful for building second-order polynomial models and investigating quadratic response surfaces. By enabling a more accurate comprehension of the interactions between inputs and responses, the Box-Behnken design improves the optimisation process and makes it easier to identify the ideal circumstances for nanoparticle synthesis. By utilising both approaches in tandem, this work methodically determines ideal formulation parameters that minimise nanoparticle size and polydispersity while optimising stability and drug loading efficiency. The outcomes highlight how important a QbD framework is for directing the creation of reliable nanoparticle systems that function consistently and predictably.
Corpus-based study on the use of cohesive devices in the lesson plans of pre-service teachers
Authors: Espeleta Ronlie RJ
Published: October 2024

This study explores the use of cohesive devices in lesson plans (LPs) prepared by pre-service teachers across various subjects, specifically focusing on English, Math, and Biology majorships in a state university in the Philippines. The research highlights the prevalent use of personal references among English pre-service teachers, who favor the word "you" for its role in maintaining a second- and third-person perspective. In contrast, Math and Biology pre-service teachers predominantly employ nominal substitutions and conjunctions to enhance coherence in their LPs. The study also notes the absence of ellipsis in the analyzed LPs and identifies the predominant use of nominal substitution and extension conjunctions across subjects. By comparing the frequency and types of cohesive devices used, the research underscores the variations in linguistic strategies employed by pre-service teachers of different disciplines. The findings suggest a need for greater awareness and training on the effective use of cohesive devices to improve lesson planning and instructional clarity.

Published: October 2024

The article substantiates the expediency of flexible economic planning in a market economy and democracy based on the theory of F. Oules. In the 20th century the structure of the economy, the interdependence of states and industries became so complicated that the laissez-faire principle lost its original relevance; now a large-scale application of democratic tools for forecasting, coordination and planning of economic activity is required. None of the widely known modern methods of assessing the level of democracy includes criteria related to the democracy of the economic planning and control system.
PROMISING DIRECTIONS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF RUSSIAN-MONGOLIAN RELATIONS FROM THE POINT OF VIEW OF CIVILIZATIONAL POLITICAL SCIENCE
Authors: Nikiforov S.
Published: October 2024

Russia’s current confrontation with the collective West forces us to pay attention to the countries of the East, in whose fate Russia once played a key role and which, unfortunately, it has decided one day to leave. One such power is Mongolia. The history of Russian-Mongolian relations is a clear illustration of the influence of the civilizational factor on the course of political processes. In order to take into account this factor for more effective development of bilateral relations at the current stage, it is necessary to identify the main directions of bilateral cooperation development, resorting both to the analysis of key bilateral political and legal regulatory documents and the provisions of the civilizational approach, which is the purpose of this article.

Using the methodology of civilizational political science, the article examines and defines the main and possible directions for the development of RussianMongolian relations in the near future, identifies the main problems and suggests ways to solve them. Special emphasis is placed on those areas of cooperation that can be considered «civilizational». Interaction through public diplomacy is considered. It establishes the need to involve representatives of business, a number of government departments, as well as the public in order to achieve significant results. The inertia and inconsistency in the attitude of the Mongolian side towards bilateral projects are stated, the contours of the problem of Mongolia’s benevolent neutrality towards the countries of the Third Neighbor, and above all the United States, are determined. Based on the results of the study, the prospects of using the civilizational factor in the development of bilateral relations between Russia and Mongolia and the role it can play in the formation of a multipolar world order are assessed. The conclusion is made about how effective Russia’s return to Mongolia and strengthening of the Russian presence can be when giving bilateral relations a new civilizational dimension. It is specified that the fundamental acts of the two countries, which determine the main directions of foreign policy and build the contours of national security, can serve as a basis for this.

Key Challenges for Internal Corrosion Modeling of Wet Gas Pipelines
Authors: Laycock N. , Metri V. , Rai S. , Sabhapondit A. , Hartog J. , Ghosh S. , Abdullah A.M.
Published: October 2024

The presence of CO2 and H2S in wet gas pipelines often creates the potential for high internal corrosion rates, which is typically mitigated by the injection of corrosion inhibitors. In practice, however, it is difficult to ensure that the inhibitor is always injected at the right level, while actual conditions in the pipeline may sometimes vary from those for which the inhibitor was qualified. Consequently, pipelines are also likely to be inspected from time to time using in-line-inspection tools. Various empirical and mechanistic models are used to estimate corrosion rates in such pipelines, both during the design phase to establish corrosion allowances and inhibitor availability requirements, and then during operation to help interpret inspection results and guide further operational decisions. These models can differ considerably in how they incorporate the effects of surface scaling, while the effects of inhibitors are generally not included in any mechanistic sense. This paper provides an overview of corrosion assessment for wet gas pipelines, with a particular focus on recent developments in modeling scale formation and the influence of inhibitors.
Development of Accelerated Galvanic Corrosion Testing for Evaluating Heat Exchanger Corrosion Penetration Lifespan
Authors: Park Eun-Ha , Lim Jeong-Min , Kim Geon-Il , Kim Yong-Won , Kim Jung-Gu
Published: October 2024

A new lifespan evaluation method, accelerated galvanic corrosion testing (AGCT), was developed for evaluating the lifespan of aluminum heat exchangers during the materials development stage. AGCT effectively accelerated corrosion by adjusting the polarization magnitude, which aligns with the polarization direction of sacrificial anode cathodic protection (SACP). Increasing the zinc content in the fin alloy (1.8 wt%, 2.2 wt%, 2.6 wt%, and 3.0 wt%) enhanced the SACP effect, with a 3.0 wt% Zn resulting in a 49% increase in the penetration lifespan of the heat exchanger. Galvanic simulation has confirmed that protection of the tube and filler is provided at zinc contents of 2.2 wt% or higher, but there is evidence of overprotection at 3.0 wt% Zn. Therefore, the optimal zinc content of fin was determined to be 2.6 wt%, which is expected to improve the heat exchanger penetration lifespan by up to 43%.
O discurso da paz perpétua do Padre Antônio Vieira
Authors: Borges de Macedo Paulo Emílio Vauthier
Published: October 2024

O presente artigo analisa uma parte negligenciada no pensamento jurídico do Padre Antônio Vieira: a arquitetura política do Quinto Império. Os estudiosos de Vieira em geral sempre menosprezaram as chamadas “obras proféticas”, e somente nos últimos vinte anos passaram a revisitá-las. Não obstante, voltam as suas atenções nas estranhas profecias e no milenarismo seiscentista, mas as bases jurídicas dessa proposta de governo mundial ainda carecem de maior elucidação. Ao seguir a sugestão do comentarista Silvano Peloso, este trabalho procura suprir essa lacuna, termina por constatar a centralidade do conceito escolástico de direito das gentes em Vieira e conclui pelo pertencimento do projeto do Quinto Império na tradição dos discursos de paz perpétua. Empregou-se o método de abordagem indutivo e a análise do discurso. As fontes primárias foram os textos de Vieira como organizados na versão de estudo do Obras Completas, coordenado por Pedro Calafate e José Eduardo Franco, bem como o manuscrito Casanatense 706 da obra Clavis Prophetarum.
