School-Based Mental Health Stigma
Authors: Acheampong Jennifer Dufie
Published: December 2023

The research centered on the role of educational leaders in addressing school-based mental health stigma. The study employs a quantitative research approach and descriptive survey research design to address the study objectives. The study made use of both primary and secondary data. Primary data for the study were gathered via a self-administered questionnaire. Secondary data on the role of educational leaders in addressing school-based mental health stigma was acquired from books and publications. one hundred students from the Kumasi Wesley Girls' High School in the Kumasi Metropolis were chosen using a simple random sampling procedure. The quantitative data was analysed using a statistical tool for the Statistical Package for Service Solution (SPSS). The study acknowledged the occurrence of mental health stigma among high school students and staff. The study discovered that student and staff participation in the leadership effort to prevent mental health stigma in schools is weak, as varied viewpoints on the extent of active participation and engagement emerged. The study also discovered that school leadership practises do not significantly contribute to mental health stigma, but that other factors may influence student perceptions. According to the paper, mental health stigma has a negative influence on schools by creating a culture of secrecy and shame, inhibiting open discourse and early intervention for children facing mental health challenges. The study recommended that the Ministry of Education, Ghana Education Service, and the KWGHS continue their efforts to reduce mental health stigma in schools, emphasising the multifaceted nature of attitudes and the need for targeted techniques to improve programme success. The report advised school boards to pay more attention to mental health stigma in the educational setting. The research essentially encouraged the Ghana Education Service to establish comprehensive strategies for addressing and mitigating mental health stigma in educational settings. The study contributes to knowledge on determining the prevalence and nature of mental health stigma in high school. The study also adds to the body of literature on high school leaders' initiatives, policies, or programmes to reduce mental health stigma.

Elections have become the mainstream of modern countries. Elections are founded on the principle of equality, namely that every citizen has equal rights and position in the government, therefore every citizen actually has the same power to govern. This people's power is the source of legitimacy and legality of state power. Freedom, Security, Justice and Peace in General Elections must be obtained by all Indonesian people in essence. Of course, this cannot be realized if there is no national stability. Elections do not only rely on the state or military, but involve the strength and role of individual citizens, including non-governmental or private organizations. To hold free, safe, fair and peaceful elections in the General Election, space and mechanisms for full participation must be created, where citizens develop democratic mechanisms and have the power to make decisions in accordance with the wishes of the citizens themselves, without any persuasion or intimidation from other parties. party. interested parties, because the idea of democracy being promoted is actually quite simple, namely to protect the rights of citizens in exercising their freedom to express opinions.

Authors: Kitchagan Saracha , Phromphen Phannaphat , Soontrunnarudrungsri Aussama , Phoophat Pithalai
Published: December 2023

The market for bedding products in Thailand now offers a wide range of physical attributes (fiber types, structures, fabric densities, thicknesses, and weights) that produce a variety of tactile sensations and comfort qualities. This study investigated the comfort properties of bedding fabrics in Thailand. Twenty-one bedding fabric samples were collected and measured for their mechanical and surface properties based on the Kawabata evaluation system for fabric (KES-F) as well as the horizontal wicking test and abrasion resistance, air permeability, wrinkle recovery, and thermal resistance (Qmax). The primary hand value (HV) and total hand value (THV) were calculated using the Kawabata hand evaluation equation KN-201-LDY describing women's thin dress fabric, using 5 different properties from the KES-F (tensile, shear, bending, compression, and surface friction). The principle component analysis (PCA) and cluster analysis of the physical properties of fabric samples showed that the samples could be placed in 4 groups. The first group was mostly cotton woven samples. The second group consisted of 2 samples that were both knitted, while the third group was mostly mixed (M) fabric samples. The last group contained cotton and M cotton samples. The first cluster was considered to provide the best hand-feel characteristics of all 4 clusters, while the second cluster was considered the least desirable based on hand-feel. The findings of this study should assist the bedding textile sector in developing new products.
The protective role of astroglia in the early period of experimental lead toxicity in the rat
Authors: Strużyńska Lidia
Published: December 2023

Although the clinical manifestations of lead (Pb) neurotoxicity are documented, the subcellular mechanisms of its action are still an open question. The purpose of this study was to assess the function of nerve ending particles after acute lead exposure and to investigate whether it exerts a toxic effect on astroglial functions. The studies were performed using the rodent model of acute lead toxicity. Cellular fractions were used in biochemical measurements - synaptosomes and glial plasmalemmal vesicles (GPV). Since a procedure for the isolation of the fraction of astroglial origin has been developed, it becomes possible to investigate lead-astroglia interactions after in vivo exposure. It is of importance because most of the studies concerning lead toxicity were performed using astroglial culture systems. It was found that the uptake of glutamate (Glu) to the synaptosomes was lowered and KCl-dependent release was increased, suggesting the impairment of glutamatergic transmission leading to the elevation of extracellular amino acid concentration. In contrast, glutamate uptake to the GPV fraction was significantly elevated. The activity of the marker enzyme - glutamine synthetase (GS) was also significantly increased in the GPV fraction. The activation of glial functions suggest a regulatory role for these cells in the early period of acute lead toxicity.

Published: December 2023

The postmicrosomal protein fraction obtained from distal stumps of rat sciatic nerves at 0-6 days following transection were investigated by means of one- and two-dimensional electrophoresis. In all experimental groups, total amount of protein was significantly higher than in the control group. Proteins were resolved into 27 bands after SDS-PAGE. Their molecular weights ranged between 16.2 and 335.4 kDa. Eleven fractions displayed significant quantitative differences. After 2-D-electrophoresis, the pI of the proteins ranged from 4.2 to 7.4. They were resolved to 28 molecular masses from 13.5 kDa to 335.4 kDa. The greatest numbers of fractions (90-109) were observed on the 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th day after nerve transection. Thus, during first 6 days after transection intensive changes in protein fraction content and composition take place in the distal stump of peripheral nerve. These processes seem to be most prominent on the 4th day after lesion. Results confirm our earlier in vivo findings.

Published: December 2023

Objective: This research aims to find arguments (theories) to ensure that foreign direct investment does not conflict with but is in accordance with the values of Pancasila and the provisions of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia.
 
Conceptual foundation: Each country in the world cannot isolate itself but must establish relationships and work together to achieve the good of those countries. Robert Jackson and Georg Sorensen said that each other's countries are independent and have sovereignty. But they are not estranged from each other. They are adjacent to and influence each other and side by side and opposite each other. Therefore, complete separation of one country from another is not an option. A country that is isolated and disconnected from other countries will usually suffer.
 
Method: This research is normative juridical using conceptual, statutory, and historical approaches. The legal materials used are primary legal materials and secondary legal materials, which are collected systematically according to the issues of concern in this research and the collection technique uses literature study, then the problems are analyzed qualitatively.
 
Result and conclusion: Foreign direct investment has a position as part and complement of the Indonesian economic system because its existence is in accordance with the values contained in Pancasila and the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia.
Contribution: The results of this research convince and invite the Indonesian people that the presence of foreign direct investment in the Indonesian economic system no longer needs to be debated, but accept foreign direct investment as a complement and encourage growth and realize the welfare of the Indonesian people in accordance with the Preamble to the Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia.

Impact of Awe on Prosocial Behavior and Authenticity for Personal Growth and Communal Well-being
Authors: Xiong Ruizhe
Published: December 2023

Awe, characterized by feelings of vastness and accommodation, can lead to both positive and negative valence emotions. The experience of awe triggers self-transcendence, driving individuals to seek greater meaning in their lives and fostering a sense of interconnectedness with others. Self-transcendence promotes authenticity by aligning actions with one's genuine self, reducing the fear of disapproval or inauthentic behavior within social groups. As a result, individuals who experience awe are more inclined to exhibit authentic prosocial behavior, benefiting both themselves and society. This paper explores the profound impact of awe on prosocial behavior and authenticity. It delves into the intricate relationship between awe, self-transcendence, authenticity, and prosociality, highlighting the significance of seeking awe-inspiring experiences for personal growth and communal well-being.

In recent years, academic databases led by CNKI have been frequently questioned by public opinion because of unfair high prices and unfair competition behavior, which has damaged the competition order and consumer interests, and anti-monopoly investigation on CNKI has also been carried out accordingly. China's anti-monopoly research in the field of academic database is far from perfect in four aspects: the definition of related market, the identification of market dominant position, the identification of abuse of market dominant position and regulatory measures. In order to solve this problem, this paper believes that we should start with the detailed data analysis of the academic database market itself and the industry leaders, combined with similar fields and foreign anti-monopoly practice and experience, and carry out a special analysis of the three steps of monopoly identification that conform to the characteristics of academic database and attach importance to the advantages of copyright.
The impact of Federal Reserve Interest Rate Hikes on the Systemic Risk of the U.S. Banking Industry: Based on Semi-Parametric Vine Copula SCCA Model
Authors: Chen Zhengbang , Jin Xin
Published: December 2023

We use the Vine Copula SCCA model to measure the systemic risk of the US banking industry, and compares the impact of two different events, external risk and Fed rate hike on systemic risk. The results demonstrate that the systemic risk of the US banking industry reached its peak when affected by external shocks (2020) but was quickly released by market rescue measures. When the Fed raised interest rates consecutively in 2022, large banks showed good resistance to risk, but the joint default risk of small and medium-sized banks remained at a significant level for a long time, indicating that interest rate hikes may have increased the systemic risk of the US banking industry. US banking industry should maintain good risk management and prudent operation, and the regulatory intensity they receive also needs to be strengthened.

Dynamics of Harmony: A Comparison of Principles between Ikebana and Mondrian’s Neoplasticism
Authors: Chai Tze Lo Cherie , Simatrang Sone , Joneurairatana Eakachat
Published: December 2023

The paper Ikebana and Mondrian's Neoplasticism explores the meaning and form of harmony.  By integrating the principles of traditional Japanese floral arrangement, Ikebana with the principles of neoplasticism harmony evolves, not as a static state but that of push and pull drawn on the thinking of Piet Mondrian. The discussion sprung from a deeply personal search for harmony through two seemingly contradictory schools of thought and cultures: Japanese flower arrangement and the abstract art of Piet Mondrian. By bending branches and shaping lines, the nature of harmony takes a visceral form. Initially, they appear similar, not in expression but in their absolute stillness. The East seeks harmony through accord, the West through the reconciliation of discord. Yet beneath the surface, Ikebana and Mondrian grapple with a push and pull, searching for concord amidst tensions. I argue that harmony is a dynamic, fluctuating state that is deceptively perceived as a state of stillness.

Published: December 2023

Through the analysis and mining of historical data, machine learning method can be used to obtain high accuracy prediction effect without establishing a complex physical model in equipment fault diagnosis, operation condition prediction, and pipeline energy consumption analysis. In the oil and gas pipeline system, the machine learning model unable to gain an ideal training effect with the data set, because of confidentiality of data, imperfect data acquisition technology, low frequency of abnormal working conditions, and other factors. In this paper, aiming at the operation energy consumption of a crude oil pipeline, the power consumption of oil pump unit is simulated by software, which can expand the data. The quality of simulation samples has a great effect on the training results. A DBSCAN algorithm based on Mahalanobis distance is proposed to evaluate the reliability of simulation samples and identify abnormal simulation samples, given the characteristics of virtual samples in pipeline transmission simulation, such as no real value control, feature correlation, and high dimension. Examples have shown that the fitting ability of the model can be improved after the simulation samples for eliminating abnormal data are added to the training set, which provides a new method for the generation and verification of simulation samples.

Published: December 2023

Considering the coupling between the heat of emergency locator transmitter and the external high-temperature fire environment, a thermal protection system for external insulation and internal heat absorption is proposed. The external insulation layer consists of flexible nanofiber heat insulation film and quartz ceramics to withstand the thermal impact of the external environment. The internal heat absorption layer is composed of microcapsulated paraffin, which is used to absorb the heat transmitted through the insulation layer and the heat generated by emergency locator transmitter. Using the enthalpy method to establish a transient heat transfer mathematical model of thermal protection system, and the protection performance of the system in high-temperature fire is analyzed. The calculation results show that the system can withstand a high-temperature fire for at least 15 minutes, during which the temperature of emergency locator transmitter is controlled below 60℃. After the fire is over, under the coupling of the waste heat of the incoming system and the heat of emergency locator transmitter, the temperature of emergency locator transmitter continues to rise to a maximum of 107℃. Then, as the influence of the waste heat of the incoming system weakens, the temperature of emergency locator transmitter gradually decreases. Finally, the accuracy of the simulation model and the effectiveness of the thermal protection system are verified through destructive experiments.

Authors: Yang Jialin , Zhang Bin
Published: December 2023

In order to evaluate the crash compatibility of vehicles, the full width deformable barrier is introduced into the vehicle crash test. Real car to car frontal collision is better simulated by installing deformable barrier on the load-cell wall . By the load-cell wall data, the values and distribution of vehicle frontal collision loads can be further obtained. Based on this, the full width deformable barrier tests are conducted for different structural sedans and SUV. The height index, homology index, horizontal structure interaction index(HSI), vertical structure interaction index(VSI), and minimum load-cell index are analyzed and compared. The results indicate that there is uncertainty when calculating the homology index RH and the evaluation indexes proposed by FIMCAR repeat the first step of VSI and HSI. Therefore, the height index, VSI, and HSI indexes are selected as effective indexes for evaluating the compatibility of the full width deformable barrier test.

BGSSN: Breast Cancer-Associated Genes Prediction Based on Weighted Sample-Specific Networks of Cancer Subtypes
Authors: Liu Qian , Zhang Yuanyuan , Zheng Haoyu , Wang Shudong
Published: December 2023

Breast cancer exhibits a notable degree of heterogeneity in its occurrence and progression, encompassing diverse clinical patterns and outcomes among patients even with identical clinical pathological stages. Genetic mutations in different subtypes of breast cancer may lead to different types of disease and have different clinical implications. Therefore, molecular typing based on the characteristics of breast cancer heterogeneity and the screening of associated genes for different subtypes of breast cancer may be able to more accurately determine the pathogenic genes of breast cancer. In this paper, we propose a weighted sample-specific network based on breast cancer subtypes to predict associated genes, named BGSSN. To better reflect the individual characteristics of patients and the importance of patient samples in different subtypes, the weight of samples is added when constructing the sample-specific network. The random walk with restart method is then utilized to predict new breast cancer-associated genes within the constructed network. By leveraging this method, the network structure can be effectively explored to identify potential gene candidates.

Authors: Zhang Zhengrong , Liu Huiting , Yu Yongjin , Ke Yangchuan , Wang Xiaoqin
Published: December 2023

In oil and gas exploration and development, the complex working conditions of high temperature and high pressure are increasing, and the strength decline of silica-cement often occurs under such conditions. In this work, the metakaolin influence on the mechanical properties and micro-structure of silica-cement at 240 ℃ and 21 MPa condition is comprehensively studied. XRD technique investigated the chemical composition of cement crystal phase, and SEM observed the micro-morphology of high temperature cement. Results showed that the loading metakaolin has reduced porosity by 12.86%, air permeability while greatly increased nanopore (＜50nm) by 36.47% and increased nanopore (＜10 nm) by 10.34%. Thus, the cement permeability reduced greatly or its anti-channelling enhanced, that is, such results improved the comprehensive performance of cement slurry. These observations, combined with the previously reported the remarkable enhancement of the MK cement compressive strength, represent a major step toward the development of strength retrogression-resistant material at high temperature.

Insulation mortar was prepared with cement, mud from washing manufactured sand, wheat straw, vitrified microbead, polypropylene fibre and chemical admixture. Influence law of wheat straw on performance of cement insulation mortar was discussed. Influence factors included pretreatment method, dosage and length of straw. Features of straw surface pretreated by NaOH solution and bonding interface were observed by scanning electron microscopy. Dry density, compressive strength, thermal conductivity coefficient reduce with the increase of straw length and the decrease of soak time. When straw dosage increases, they decrease firstly, increase later. Straw reduces the mass loss of cement insulation mortar treated at temperature below 500℃. Straw surface pretreated by NaOH solution becomes rough. There are trenches with widths about a few microns. It makes a better interface combination between straw and cement matrix.

Hydrate-Based Carbon Dioxide Capture Technology in the Ocean: Research Advances and Challenges
Authors: Liu Tianqi
Published: December 2023

The urgent need for emission reduction due to climate change has spurred the development of carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies, with carbon dioxide (CO2) hydrates emerging as a promising option due to their high storage capacity and cost-effectiveness. This paper provides an overview of the characteristics and formation mechanisms of CO2 hydrates, along with an exploration of mechanical and chemical methods to enhance CO2 hydrate formation. Thermodynamic additives are beneficial for reducing the formation pressure of CO2 hydrate, while mechanical methods and kinetic promoters play a positive role in improving kinetic parameters, especially when both are combined. To investigate the effectiveness of kinetic and thermodynamic promoters, this study explores the impact of various promoters on induction time, formation rate, phase equilibrium, and gas consumption. Additionally, the existing challenges of CO2 hydrate are discussed, and the future research directions are proposed. Based on this study, the hydrate method of CO2 capture technology is expected to assume a crucial role in marine carbon capture technology.
The Effect of Salt Concentration on the Germination of Soybeans
Authors: Xu Yihan
Published: December 2023

In order to solve the problem of crop growth difficulty in saline-alkali soil, it is meaningful to discuss how much salt affects the growth and germination of soybean. Zhonghuang 35 with low salt tolerance and Zheng 1311 with high salt tolerance were selected respectively, and NaCl solutions with concentrations of 0.250, 0.250, 0.125, 0.0625 and 0 mol L-1 were set for hydroponics, the effect of NaCl concentration on soybean germination was determined by variance analysis. The results showed that the concentration of NaCl was significantly correlated with the germination rate of Zhonghuang 35 and Zheng 1311 soybean varieties. The health of soybean is inversely proportional to NaCl concentration. The effect of NaCl concentration on germination in Zhonghuang 35 was more obvious than that in Zheng 1311. This study provides a theoretical basis for soybean growth in saline-alkali soil.
Effective Quaternion Rotation in An Ellipsoid through Sphere Transformation: A Linear Approach
Authors: Li Rundong , Chen Muwen
Published: December 2023

The application of quaternion rotation in ellipsoids and spheres is an intriguing field with significant implications in computer graphics, robotics, and physics simulations. The necessity to decipher quaternion rotation in ellipsoid is crucial. This research aims to utilize the principles of quaternion rotation in spheres to compute the equivalent in the ellipsoid. This involves the application of a linear transformation to convert quaternion rotation in ellipsoids into spheres. By controlling the full rotation of quaternions, the spheres can be transformed back into ellipsoids, achieving the ultimate goal of controlling quaternion rotation within an ellipsoid. The results demonstrate that this approach effectively addresses the quaternion rotation on the ellipsoid and aligns with the fundamental properties of quaternions. Furthermore, it serves as a significant aid in implementing quaternion rotation on the ellipse.
