Published: February 2020

Objective

To evaluate the esthetic perceptions of orthodontists and laypersons for facial profile changes after orthodontic treatment using Herbst or Forsus appliances.

Materials and Methods

Pre- and posttreatment facial profile contour images of 20 Class II patients treated with Herbst (group H; n = 10) and Forsus (group F; n = 10) appliances were analyzed by 30 orthodontists and 30 laypersons, who graded them from 1 (unattractive) to 10 (very attractive) using a visual analog scale. Two assessments were carried out with a 15 day-interval. In the first evaluation, 40 images were presented in a random sequence. In the second evaluation, initial and final facial profile images of each patient were randomly presented side by side. To compare groups in relation to treatment method, Mann-Whitney tests were used. To evaluate differences between time points, Wilcoxon tests were used.

Results

In the first evaluation, there was a significant difference between initial and final images only for group H, for both laypersons (P = .017) and orthodontists (P = .037). There was also a significant difference between laypersons and orthodontists in their ratings of posttreatment Herbst appliance profiles (P = .028). There was no significant difference between initial and final facial profile images for group F and no significant differences between or within evaluator groups in their ratings of initial or final Forsus appliance profiles. In the second evaluation, there was a significant difference between appliance groups only for laypersons, who considered cases treated with the Herbst appliance more attractive than those treated with the Forsus (P = .031). Laypersons also considered Herbst profiles more attractive than did orthodontists (P = .047).

Conclusions

Class II malocclusion treatment using the Herbst appliance may produce a more esthetically improved facial profile silhouette compared with Forsus appliances. The magnitude of perceived changes may not be considered clinically relevant.
Lexicon connection priming and ethics: As our sense of human connection decreases, so too does our ethical decision-making.
Authors: Macdonald Chris
Published: February 2020

In an era increasingly surrounded by images, it is all too easy to overlook the power of the humble word. Recent studies have shown that images depicting human disconnection can weaken our morals. This paper reveals three new experiments that demonstrate that words can replicate this phenomenon. The results of experiments 1 and 2 show that an increase of unethical decision-making can be triggered via lexicon primes that convey the idea of human disconnection. Experiment 3 suggests that while priming the idea of human disconnection can loosen our morals, priming the idea of human connection can increase ethical decision-making. The three experiments also indicate that the primes are more effective when they are indirect (such as via the use of metaphors), and when they are created to seemingly appear to come from the participants themselves (such as asking participants to list evidence for a given statement).

Media ownership in Oceania: Three case studies in Fiji, Papua New Guinea and Tonga
Authors: Singh Shailendra
Published: February 2020

The news media in Oceania are small but remarkably diverse and vigorous. Ownership ranges from large transnational corporations and robust local media companies, as in Fiji and Papua New Guinea, to local entrepreneurial and Government media interests, such as in Tonga and smaller South Pacific nations. News Corporation, through its South Pacific subsidaries, owns the two largest English-language dailies, The Fiji Times and the PNG Post-Courier, while the Malaysian timber company Rimbunan Hijau is a major media investor in Papua New Guinea (The National) as well as having interests in New Zealand and South-East Asia. Australia's Channel nine owns PNG's national TV broadcaster, EMTV, and New Zealand has played an important role in the development of Fiji Television. All three countries have had constitutional freedom of expression guarantees under assault in recent years and the role of the media in good governance has been an emerging theme. Three authors, prominent journalists (and, in the case of two, now also media edcators), analyse the trends in their countries.

Media: Tauiwi and Māori news: The indigenous view
Authors: Stuart Ian
Published: February 2020

Aotearoa/New Zealand is divided between the mainstream news media and the fast-gowing Māori media with different perspectives. New Zealand journalism graduates need to be taught different media systems and news values. In the New Zealand news media now and beyond 2000 the biggest growth area is in the Māori media. For many years Māori have been saying the news media ignores their perspective on news and is not reporting Māori events properly. The news media failed to take notice of these claims and in frustration Maori set up their own media. In the last 19 years—but more so in the past five years there has been a huge growth in the Māori news media. There are now nine Iwi newspapers, 26 Iwi radio stations, a Māori radio news network and several Māori magazines, the most prominent being Mana.

Indonesian misadventure: A US mining giant's clash
Authors: Press Eyal
Published: February 2020

West Papuan tribesmen take on the operations of Freeport McMoran, the company that runs the world's largest goldmine and third-largest copper mine. The lessons for Papua New Guinea's resource developers are sobering. The three-day rebellion began after a vehicle driven by a Freeport employee accidentally struck a local tribesman, Wilenus Kogoya. Rumors spread that the man had been killed, whereupon hundreds of indigenous people armed with sticks, spears, and knives began attacking Freeport facilities, ransacking buildings, breaking windows, damaging an environmental lab and scores of company offices and homes. They eventually forced the temporary closure of both the mine in Tembagapura, and the local airport in neighboring Timika, where rioters rushed to meet the incoming plane of Freeport chief executive officer James Robert ("Jim Bob") Moffett.

Individual Practices to Increase the Graduation Rate of African American Students at Predominantly White Colleges and Universities
Authors: Hoston William T. , Graves Shanna L. , Fleming-Randle Marche
Published: February 2020

African American students face a number of institutional barriers when admitted to Predominantly White Colleges and Universities (PWCUs). Many of the obstacles they encounter are related to historical racism, stereotypes, and prejudices embedded in the culture of these institutions. Even though the enrollment of African American students at these institutions continues to increase, their completion rate remains low. While past studies have examined institutional strategies to increase African American graduation rate, they have failed to provide recommendations on the individual level for these students to practice. This article explores an important questions: What individual strategies are important for African American students to practice in an effort to graduate from PWCUs? Using semi-structured interviews of tenured Africam American faculty at PWCUs, ten recommendations were proposed to practice.

LA INCLUSIÓN DEL SEGURO DE AMORTIZACIÓN EN LAS OPERACIONES DE PRÉSTAMO
Authors: Valls Martínez María del Carmen , Cruz Rambaud Salvador , Abad Segura Emilio
Published: February 2020

En la práctica, es usual la contratación de un seguro de vida conjuntamente con las operaciones de préstamo, de modo que, en caso de fallecimiento o invalidez del prestatario, la compañía aseguradora asuma el capital pendiente de amortizar. En este artículo, proponemos la sustitución de ambas operaciones por una única operación aleatoria de préstamo, cuyo final esté vinculado a la esperanza de vida del prestatario, de modo que, si acaeciese la contingencia durante el período de tiempo pactado para la operación, ésta se extinguirá sin más obligaciones para el prestatario o para terceras personas. Evidentemente, esto supone el incremento de la cantidad periódica a pagar en una cuota de riesgo. Por tanto, el objetivo de este trabajo es describir esta nueva operación y se compararla con la actual oferta bancaria.
Multiproduct biorefinery optimal design: application to the acetone-butanol-ethanol system
Authors: Belletante Ségolène , Montastruc Ludovic , Meyer Michel , Hermansyah Heri , Negny Stéphane
Published: February 2020

The bioproduct from biomass appears to be major interests for future years given the spectacular and fast advances in microbiology. But the industrial developments of the new bioproducts production struggle to follow this constant and massive creation. Therefore, to estimate the potential of new bioproducts is necessary to pre-design biorefineries with the highest relevance. This study proposes a methodology assessing the relevance of such industrialized production. The presented tool is a multi-scale methodology describing a decision-support tool for the determination of an optimal biorefinery from a superstructure through process simulation, and economic and environmental evaluations. To optimize the biorefinery, energy integration is also applied on the selected processes, because a biorefinery needs a large amount of energy to operate, especially in the pretreatment and purification steps of the process due to huge water flowrate.

Published: February 2020

Review words is type of vocabulary building which is the easiest way to checking how is the students’ understanding dealing with the previous vocabulary given, especially for college students. Classroom observation research was used as the method in this study. The method is divided into some stages namely review, reduce, recycle, vocab college, role reversal, word soup, and vocab box.  It is a method of straightly observing teaching process, which the observer taking notes, and/or coding instructional performances in the classroom or from recorded activities or lesson. It is going to define some steps that we need to apply the review words. Moreover, it is still important to upgrading collage students’ vocabulary because English as EFL will be very difficult term to reach when they are not seriously concern about the vocabulary. This paper will discuss the importance of using review words in checking students understanding in the certain level of English skill.

We report the first transformation between crystalline vinylene-linked two-dimensional (2D) polymers and crystalline cyclobutane-linked three-dimensional (3D) polymers. Specifically, absorption-edge irradiation of the 2D poly(arylenevinylene) covalent organic frameworks (COFs) results in topological [2+2] cycloaddition cross-linking the π-stacked layers in 3D COFs. The reaction is reversible and heating to 200°C leads to a cycloreversion while retaining the COF crystallinity. The resulting difference in connectivity is manifested in the change of mechanical and electronic properties, including exfoliation, blue-shifted UV-Vis absorption, altered luminescence, modified band structure and different acid-doping behavior. The Li-impregnated 2D and 3D COFs show a significant ion conductivity of 1.8×10−4 S/cm and 3.5×10−5 S/cm, respectively. Even higher room temperature proton conductivity of 1.7×10-2 S/cm and 2.2×10-3 S/cm was found for H2SO4-treated 2D and 3D COFs, respectively.

Published: February 2020

Deep blue organic-emitting fluorophores are crucial for application in white lighting and full color flat-panel displays but emitters with high color quality and efficiency are rare. Herein, novel deep blue AIE luminogens (AIEgens) with various donor units and an acceptor of cyano substituted tetraphenylbenzene (TPB) cores were developed and used to fabricate non-doped deep blue and hybrid white organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). Benefiting from its high emission efficiency and high proportion of horizontally oriented dipoles in the film state, the non-doped deep blue device based on CN-TPB-TPA realized a maximum external quantum efficiency 7.27%, with a low efficiency roll-off and CIE coordinates of (0.15, 0.08). Moreover, efficient two-color hybrid warm white OLEDs (CIEx,y = 0.43, 0.45) were achieved using CN-TPB-TPA as the blue-emitting layer and phosphor doped host, which realized maximum current, power, external quantum efficiencies 58.0 cd A-1, 60.7 lm W-1 and 19.1%, respectively. This work provides a general strategy to achieve high performance, stable deep blue and hybrid white OLEDs by construction of AIEgens with excellent horizontal orientation
Towards Personalized Medicine: Photoacoustic Imaging Enables Companion Diagnosis and Targeted Treatment of Lung Cancer
Authors: Lucero Melissa , Chan Jefferson
Published: February 2020

Companion diagnostics (CDx) represent a new frontier in personalized medicine that promises to improve treatment outcomes by matching therapies to patients. Currently, these tests are limited in scope and cannot report on real-time changes associated with disease progression and remediation. To address this, we have developed the first photoacoustic imaging-based CDx (PACDx) for the selective detection of elevated glutathione (GSH) in lung cancer. Since GSH is abundant in most cells, it was essential to tune the reactivity of the benzenesulfonyl-based trigger to distinguish between normal and pathological states. Moreover, we designed a matching prodrug, PARx, that utilizes the same mechanism to release both a chemotherapeutic (Gemcitabine) and a PA readout. We demonstrate that PARx can inhibit tumor growth while sparing all other tissue from off target toxicity in a A549 lung cancer xenograft model. We envision that this work will establish a new standard for personalized medicine by employing a unique imaging-based approach.

Esta revisión teórica pretende ser un punto de partida para futuros estudios de espumas de hormigón carbonatado. El documento recoge las propiedades de las espumas de hormigón relacionadas con el aislamien-to acústico, y los tipos ambientales y las implicaciones de dos agentes espumantes (ácido cítrico y bicarbonato de sodio). Finalmente, existe una mayor eficacia del aislamiento acústico cuando la densidad está en un rango más bajo debido a la conexión entre densidad y porosidad, por otro lado, el ácido cítrico tiene vías sostenibles de producción y emisión, a diferencia del proceso de bicarbonato de sodio.
