Associations Between Prison Recidivism and Working and Educational Experiences During Deprivation of Liberty
Authors: Galvão de Souza Rafael , Braz Golgher André , Figueiredo Alves da Silva Bráulio
Published: August 2024

This essay investigates the impact of inmates’ work and educational programs on recidivism rates over nearly five years for prisoners released from Santa Catarina prisons. Three methods were used to analyze recidivism and to control for self-selection bias and non-observable heterogeneity: propensity score matching, Cox, and frailty models. The frailty model showed that participation in work and educational programs reduced the odds of recidivism by 14% and 32%, respectively. This study suggests that programs are being carried out in Santa Catarina that may effectively impact prisoners’ rehabilitation.
Computational screening of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) library to identify potential inhibitors of H5N1 avian influenza neuraminidase: A molecular docking and dynamics simulation study
Authors: Odhar Hasanain Abdulhameed
Published: August 2024

The influenza virus is a highly mutagenic pathogen that can drive a pandemic threat. This pandemic threat is currently very probable due to the recent outbreak of avian influenza H5N1 among cattle herds in United States. It is possible that this pathogenic strain can undergo evolution to easily infect other mammals including human beings. Therefore, it is of interest to identify new antiviral molecules that can fight both the circulating or novel strains of influenza. In this in-silico study, a library of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) was screened against neuraminidase enzyme for H5N1 influenza virus. Both molecular docking and dynamics simulation were employed to identify potential inhibitors for N1 neuraminidase protein. According to the results of this study, both grosvenorine and pectolinarin are predicted to be effective N1 neuraminidase inhibitors. Evaluation of docking images points to the possibility that these two flavonoids may be engaged in multiple interactions with key residues in the active site of neuraminidase monomer. Additionally, the two compounds were able to record close proximity to target active site during simulation study. Also, the minimal average molecular mechanics-Poisson Boltzmann surface area (MM-PBSA) binding energy was reported by pectolinarin throughout simulation interval. Finally, chemical and pharmacokinetics profiling refers to the possible hydrophilic nature of both grosvenorine and pectolinarin. Thus, these two compounds are expected to be soluble in water with low intestinal absorption. Also, both compounds are anticipated to be safe with high median lethal dose (LD50). However, these preliminary computation results must be further evaluated both in vitro and in vivo.
Specificity Ratings for English Data
Authors: Ravelli Andrea Amelio , Bolognesi Marianna , Caselli Tommaso
Published: August 2024

A dataset of Specificity ratings for English words is hereby presented, analyzed and discussed in relation with other collections of speaker-generated ratings, including Concreteness. Both, Specificity and Concreteness are analyzed in their ability to explain decision latencies in lexical and semantic tasks, showing important individual contributions. Specificity ratings are collected through Best-Worst scaling method on the words included in the ANEW dataset (Bradley & Lang, 1999), chosen for its compatibility with many other collections of rating resources, and for its comparability with Italian Specificity data (Bolognesi & Caselli, 2023), allowing for cross-linguistic comparisons. Results suggest that Specificity plays an important role in word processing and the importance of taking Specificity into consideration when investigating concreteness effects.
Dataset Creation Framework for Handwritten Exponent Recognition
Authors: Balsaraf Akash S , Salam Laraib
Published: August 2024

We introduce a novel framework for creating datasets specifically tailored to advance the recognition of handwritten mathematical expressions, with a focus on handwritten exponents. Building upon the MNIST dataset, our framework facilitates the generation of images featuring base digits (0-9) combined with handwritten exponents. The process involves systematic resizing, positioning, and overlaying of digits and exponents on a standardized black canvas to ensure uniformity. Each image is accompanied by detailed metadata, which is systematically recorded in a CSV file. This framework provides a structured approach to dataset creation, offering a valuable resource for developing and testing machine learning models designed to recognize complex handwritten mathematical expressions. The dataset created using this framework holds promise for enhancing applications in educational technology and digital documentation, where accurate interpretation of mathematical handwriting is crucial.
Concerted conservation actions to support chimpanzee cultures
Authors: Wessling Erin
Published: August 2024

Chimpanzees were amongst the first animals recognised to have culture, and our understanding of the breadth of their cultural repertoire has grown significantly since the 1960s. Throughout their range, chimpanzee populations have come under increasing pressure, with their endangered status necessitating immediate and long-term conservation interventions. Recognizing the importance of diverse behavioural repertoires for chimpanzees’ survival, there has been a recent focus of conservation efforts on preserving their culturally-transmitted behaviours and the environments in which they are exhibited. This article evaluates the practicality of developing conservation measures focused on chimpanzee culture. We highlight innovative conservation strategies aimed at integrating chimpanzee cultural behaviours into conservation policies. We review synergistic conservation initiatives led by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), the UN Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals (CMS), and other international and local stakeholders that share the goal of preserving chimpanzee populations and their cultural diversity. We underline how successful conservation implementation requires engagement and collaboration with a diverse group of stakeholders. Finally, we explore lessons learned to date and provide insights aimed at guiding future efforts to incorporate cultural elements into conservation strategies.
Robustness, generalizability, and heterogeneity of dynamic networks of psychopathology.
Authors: Jover Martínez Alberto , Waldorp Lourens , Fried Eiko , Lemmens Lotte H.J.M. , Roefs Anne
Published: August 2024

The network perspective of psychopathology proposes that mental disorders arise from dynamic interactions between psychopathology-relevant variables. This study explored the robustness, generalizability, and heterogeneity of dynamic networks of psychopathology using Ecological Momentary Assessment data of 173 participants. Robustness - i.e., how precisely model parameters are estimated - of nomothetic networks was assessed via case-dropping bootstrapping. Translatability (i.e., how much group-derived estimates reflect individual processes) was evaluated by comparing freely estimated idiographic networks to idiographic networks where significant effects from the nomothetic network were constrained. Heterogeneity was analyzed using the Individual Network Invariance Test per pair of individuals. Results suggest that robustness was acceptable overall. Translatability from nomothetic to idiographic networks was limited, and inter-individual heterogeneity was large. The limited generalizability and large heterogeneity shows the urgency of finding homogeneous groups. Recommendations to find such groups combining data-driven and theory-driven approaches with a focus on single-case research are discussed.
Beyond TikTok Doomscrolling: Content Takes Precedence over Usage Metrics in Associations with Wellbeing
Authors: Cork Alicia , Piwek Lukasz , Smith Laura G.E. , Joinson Adam , Stanton Fraser Danaë , Ellis David Alexander
Published: August 2024

Despite multiple reviews demonstrating minimal effects between time spent on social media and well-being, concern remains high, prompting calls for nuanced approaches using digital footprint data and content. This study utilises second-by-second TikTok interactions to examine the relationship between social media behaviours and well-being, focusing on the active-passive use dichotomy and content consumption. Through analysing donated data from 161 TikTok users, we identify two behavioural clusters: content creation (posting and commenting) and content consumption (watching, searching and liking). These clusters challenge consumption as a passive process. Moreover, we find content types are more strongly associated with well-being than usage metrics, where users with higher depression levels consumed more animals/wildlife videos, and users with higher anxiety levels consumed fewer travel and automotive videos. This cross-sectional research demonstrates the value in using granular behavioural data to challenge simplistic active-passive dichotomisations and the importance of content in understanding social media’s impact on well-being.
The Risks of Using Large Language Models for Text Annotation in Social Science Research
Authors: Zhang Yongjun , Lin Hao
Published: August 2024

Generative artificial intelligence (AI) or large language models (LLMs) have revolutionized computational social science, particularly in automated textual analysis. In this paper, we conduct a systematic evaluation of the promises and risks of using LLMs for diverse coding tasks in social movement studies. We propose a framework for social scientists to adopt LLMs to text annotation, either as the primary coding decision-maker or as a coding assistant. Additionally, we discuss the associated epistemic risks related to validity, reliability, replicability, and transparency. We conclude by offering several practical guidelines for using LLMs in coding tasks.

Published: August 2024

Every company carries out distribution activities to distribute goods to consumers. PT Petrokimia Gresik is one of the providers of organic fertilizer called petragonik fertilizer. They must ensure that distribution from source to destinations does not occur scarcity of organic fertilizers. Selection of inappropriate distribution channels, very high transportation costs and to meet the number of different requests for each detination are factors that can hinder the process of distributing goods. The main aim of this research is to help PT Petrokimia Gresik in solving cost optimization problems related to the distribution of goods. The methods used in this research are Average Opportunity Cost Method (AOCM) and Average Total Opportunity Cost Method (ATOCM), then continued using Modified Distribution (MODI) for optimization test. Based on the research results, it is found that the initial cost of distribution using AOCM is smaller than ATOCM. So for the case of PT Petrokimia Gresik, the AOCM method is better than ATOCM. While the optimization test results get the minimum distribution cost of IDR194.350.000.

Authors: Yanti Devi , Suryani Irma , Wartono  , Saleh Mohammad , Muda Yuslenita
Published: August 2024

Skin cancer is a disease that occurs due to a change in the nature of normal skin cells into abnormal skin cells, where these cells will divide into abnormal forms in an unconditioned manner due to DNA damage. This research explains the stability of the SEPIR model in skin cancer caused by exposure to ultraviolet light. The population is divided into five subpopulations, namely, susceptible (S), latent period with early symptoms (E), pre-cancer (P), infected (I), and recovered from skin cancer (R). Based on the model analysis using Jacobian matrix and eigen value, there is one equilibrium point free and one endemic equilibrium point for skin cancer and the basic reproduction number R0. The results of the stability test of the equilibrium test using basic reproduction number (R0)  showed that if  R0<1, then the equilibrium point free from skin cancer is asymptotically stable and if  R0>1 the equilibrium point endemic to skin cancer is asymptotically stable.

Putusan Uitvoerbaar bij Voorraad: Rasionalisasi Hakim dan Implikasi Hukumnya
Authors: Dwithia H.P. Zora Febriena
Published: August 2024

An immediate decision or a decision that can be implemented first (Uitvoerbaar bij Voorraad) is a judge's decision that can be implemented (executed) even though it has not yet obtained permanent legal force. Usually, the implementation of a decision or execution can only be carried out if it has passed the time frame given by the court to file a legal remedy that is against the judge's decision at the first level within 14 days after the decision is read or notified. If within that time frame the losing party does not file any legal remedies, then the decision of the District Court can be implemented or executed. However, in the Civil Procedure Code it is possible for a Judge to pass a UBV decision or a decision that can be implemented first without having to wait for the time span for the losing party to file a legal remedy against the conditions as stated above. Such a decision has the potential for considerable risk considering that there is still the possibility that the judge's decision at the first instance court may be revised or even annulled by a judge at a higher level court. This paper analyzes the rationalization of judges in imposing UBV decisions and the legal consequences of UBV decisions which are canceled by the high court. This research is a normative juridical research with a statutory approach and a concept approach. Based on the results of the analysis, it can be concluded that the rationalization of the judge in imposing the UBV decision is if one of the several conditions that render the UBV decision has been fulfilled, including the claim based on an authentic right, the existence of a judge's decision that has been inkracht, the existence of a provisional lawsuit that has been granted, and the case is related to the bezitsrecht dispute. The legal consequence if the UBV decision is canceled by the high court is that the UBV decision is null and void.
Presidential Threshold: Konsep Open Legal Policy Oleh Mahkamah Konstitusi 2017-2022

Published: August 2024

This study aims to analyze the constitutional interpretation method used by constitutional judges in judicial review the presidential threshold as an open legal policy for 2017-2022 and to offer an ius constituendum to use the open legal policy by the Constitutional Court in the future. The type of research used is normative legal research, namely research conducted by examining legal materials consisting of primary legal materials, secondary legal materials, and tertiary legal materials using a case approach and a conceptual approach. The data collection technique used in this research is using a literature study and the data will be analyzed using the descriptive analysis method. The research found that the Constitutional Court in judicial review the presidential threshold from 2017 to 2022 all used structural , thus interpreting the presidential threshold norm and its touchstone as an open legal policy. But unfortunately, the interpretation made by the constitutional judge is incorrect and has changed the original meaning of the formation of Article 6A paragraph (2) of the NRI Constitution of 1945. The original intent of the establishment of Article 6A paragraph (2) of the NRI Constitution of 1945 was to place political parties or a combination of political parties as a path to propose candidates for President and Vice President because the framers of the amendment did not want an independent candidate. Therefore, the interpretation of constitutional judges declaring the presidential threshold and Article 6A paragraph (2) of the NRI Constitution of 1945 as open legal policy is wrong because the article is clear. In the future, constitutional judges can divide open legal policy into two forms, namely absolute and relative, both of which can be reviewing, and constitutional judges can expand the touchstone of the Basic Law which not only includes article norms but also includes the Preamble in which Pancasila and cancels the formulation of presidential threshold norms to 0% in order to provide justice to justice seekers.
Legal Framework for Trademark Manifestation as Collateral Financing to Enhance the Capacity of MSMEs in Indonesia
Authors: Chairunnisa Chairunnisa , Sudirman Lu , Disemadi Hari Sutra
Published: August 2024

This article examines the manifestation of trademarks as collateral to enhance the capacity of Micro, Small, and Medium-sized Enterprises (MSMEs) in Indonesia. The study employs a normative research approach, drawing upon legal sources derived from legislation, relevant legal theories, and concepts. Data is analyzed using a qualitative juridical method and deductive reasoning. The research findings suggest that trademarks should be eligible as collateral since they meet the criteria of intangible movable property that can contribute to the growth and development of SMEs in Indonesia. However, the practical application of trademarks as collateral is hindered by existing regulations and the absence of a specialized intellectual property asset appraisal institution. Such measures are crucial in fostering MSMEs and, ultimately, improving the welfare of the Indonesian society.
Legal Justice Of The Wage Rights Of Honorary Teachers In Indonesia
Authors: Khoir Alafa Nidaul
Published: August 2024

Teachers are an important aspect of education because the success of students depends on the teacher's teaching. The welfare of honorary teachers in Indonesia is still a problem that must be resolved immediately. The low wages of honorary teachers in Indonesia cause many honorary teachers to take part-time jobs to meet economic needs. This research aims to seek legal protection for honorary teachers' wage rights, with the hope that honorary teachers have clear and definite legal protection so that honorary teachers can get wage rights commensurate with their hard work. This research uses normative legal methods. The results of this research show that there are still many cases of honorary teachers who are willing to work elsewhere to meet economic needs, some are even determined to sell illegal goods because of the low wages of honorary teachers. The absence of legal certainty governing salary schemes for honorary teachers is one of the causes of low wages for honorary teachers and also the absence of regulations that regulate honorary teachers.
Deep Learning and Photoacoustic Technology for Microcirculation Classification: Comparison Between Smoking and Nonsmoking Groups
Authors: Chua Hui Ling , Huong Audrey
Published: August 2024

Smoking has a significant impact on microcirculation, but existing tools for monitoring circulation perfusion in the smoking group have different shortcomings. This preliminary study explores the feasibility of using an in-house assembled multispectral photoacoustic (PA) system to investigate and compare the microcirculation performance between smoking and nonsmoking subjects. For this purpose, pretrained Alexnet, Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), and a hybrid Alexnet-LSTM network were employed for the prediction task. This research included five smoking and thirty-two nonsmoking participants in the investigations that involved two experimental conditions, i.e., at rest and arterial blood flow occlusion. The findings showed that the PA signals produced in the smoking group have generally smaller magnitudes and negligible differences (when comparing between the two experiment conditions) than their nonsmoking counterpart. The employed models performed superiorly with the highest accuracy of 90 % given by the hybrid model, followed by 80 % recorded for Alexnet and LSTM using nonsmoking data. The performance of these models is reduced when they are trained and tested using smoking data. Our study highlights the task complexity and difficulty in determining tissue microcirculation status in heavy smoking individuals, which has been attributed to their possibly pre-existing atherosclerotic conditions and the high carboxyhemoglobin (COHb) level. A longitudinal study of smoking habit-dependent microcirculation abnormalities in smokers could offer further avenues for investigation. Future research includes incorporating systematic experimental protocols and access to the participant’s medical records to improve the performance of the clinical decision-making system used for field applications.

Comparative Performance of Low-Cost Portable Scanner in Pregnancy Profile Ultrasonography: A Promising Adjunct to Telemedicine
Authors: Naznin Afroza , Kadir Muhammad Abdul , Begum Fatima , Rabbani Khondkar Siddique-e
Published: August 2024

Background and Objective: Ultrasound scanners are widely used in various clinical settings, but conventional devices are too expensive to deploy in every healthcare facility in low-resource countries. Alternative, less costly instruments with comparable efficacy are required to ensure this diagnostic service is available in even remotest areas. This study evaluated the effectiveness of a commercially available low-cost portable ultrasound machine, particularly focusing on pregnancy profiling.
Material and Methods: A total of 77 pregnant females were scanned for basic obstetric parameters with two devices, first the low-cost scanner, and then a conventional ultrasound machine, considering the latter as the gold standard. The key obstetric parameters observed were the number of fetuses, the presence of cardiac pulsation and fetal movement, fetal biometry including Crown Rump Length (CRL), Bi-Parietal Diameter (BPD), and Femoral Length (FL), gestational age, placental location, amniotic fluid volume, and presentation of the fetus.
Results: The portable device performed well compared with the standard machine in observing the fetal number, presentation, movement, heartbeat, placental location, and amniotic fluid volume. The correlation coefficients (r²) for measuring BPD, FL, CRL, and gestational age using the portable and standard devices were 0.9578, 0.9415, 0.8230, and 0.983, respectively. The mean absolute error (MAE) in the measurement of BPD, FL, CRL, and gestational age were 2.24 mm, 2.14 mm, 6.5 mm, and 0.94 weeks, respectively.
Conclusion: The results demonstrated the potential of low-cost portable ultrasound devices in pregnancy profile scanning. Further studies with larger sample sizes are needed to explore their full potential. With appropriate data transfer arrangements, these devices have significant potential for integration into telemedicine services.

El aluminato de estroncio destaca por su alta intensidad y durabilidad, mejorando significativamente la resistencia a la compresión del concreto. El fosfato de zinc también ofrece una emisión prolongada y es altamente resistente a la humedad. El silicato de zinc mejora la resistencia al desgaste, mientras que la fluorescencia de calcio refuerza la cohesión y resistencia a cargas pesadas del concreto. La selección del pigmento ideal depende de las necesidades específicas del proyecto.
APPLICATION OF BASIC ACCOUNTING CONCEPTS WITH TRAINING METHODS FOR PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR BUSINESSES
Authors: Dahlia Yunita Banjarnahor  , Meythi Meythi  , Riki Martusa  , Rapina Rapina
Published: August 2024

Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) are the driving wheels of the economic cycle, because SMEs are able to absorb a large workforce. They are one form of business that can survive and contribute to large growth in gross domestic product. The accounting cycle is the process of each accounting which is carried out by searching for analysis, recording using processes which are carried out repeatedly and analyzing existing records. SAK EMKM is very helpful for SME owners in implementing accounting in their businesses to make it easier to prepare finances according to standards. Based on SAK EMKM, SME actors are required to make proper reports, namely by keeping daily, weekly, monthly and annual financial records because financial reports are very important for the progress of a business. If we relate it to our hypothesis, SAK EMKM has not been carried out in Cireundeu, considering that Cireundeu SMEs only make Income and Expenditure reports. In particular, the implementation of accounting for SMEs in Cireundeu Village still has the same problems as several regions in Indonesia, so solutions and approaches to increasing SME accountability must be prepared by a user-friendly and systematic accounting process guide based on EMKM by SME managers.
APPLICATION OF THE BUSINESS ENTITY CONCEPT TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF SMES
Authors: Fadila Cristy  , Riki Martusa  , Meythi Meythi  , Rapina Rapina
Published: August 2024

The financial statements must be provided according to financial accounting standards. The basic of financial accounting standards are accounting concepts. One of the concepts are business entity, i.e. the financial of business must separate from the financial of owner. The financial statements also must produce accurate and relevant information. One of the obstacles faced by many, especially MSMEs, is that they have become accustomed to using simple financial statements and it is difficult to adapt to good financial statements in accordance with the concept of business entity. The concept of business entity requires that the recording of company transactions is separate from the recording of owner transactions (Dermawan et al., 2020). The research was conducted using interviews and filling out pretest and posttest to find out whether the concept of business entity had been applied to the financial statements made and measure residents' understanding of the material presented. The results of the study show that the concept of business entity has been implemented but not fully because there are still obstacles experienced.
MACROECONOMIC FORECASTS IN THE CONTEXT OF THE WAR IN UKRAINE: CAUTIOUS OPTIMISM VS. HOPEFUL PESSIMISM
Authors: Kamyshnykova Evelina
Published: August 2024

How different variants of security risk shape the future of the Ukrainian economy? The war background with its built-in uncertainty factor makes the development of accurate forecasts more challenging. The paper proposes to solve the problem of short-term and medium-term forecast accuracy of macroeconomic indicators of Ukraine in the context of the war based on the use of a scenario approach. Four hypothetical scenarios regarding the development of socio-economic situation in Ukraine ranging from optimistic to pessimistic variants due to duration of large-scale war have been designed. Real GDP growth, net migration, volume of remittances and unemployment rate are the key macroeconomic measurements that have been projected for 2023-2024 period. Research findings form the basis for shaping a clear strategy for the post-war recovery of Ukraine in the medium to long term as three out of four macroeconomic scenarios assume the end of hostilities within a period under forecast. The paper contributes to improved theoretical rationale for existing linkages between key macroeconomic indicators and uncertainty factor driven by military situation in economic projections. The implications of the research include the design of economic policy mix adequate for optimistic and pessimistic scenarios of the development of the war in Ukraine.
Analysis of the energy collapse overcoming scenarios for small businesses of Ukraine.
Authors: Mints Aleksey , Doroshkevych Hanna
Published: August 2024

Military actions on the territory of Ukraine have significantly impacted the country's economic situation. The energy crisis provoked by these actions has added considerable problems to the entire business sector of the country, but small businesses have suffered the most. In the acute phase of the crisis, the question of survival and further operation of businesses arose. The article provides a characterization of small enterprises and emphasizes their importance for the stability of Ukraine's economy. Various scenarios of small business response to the energy crisis are considered, specifically focusing on the utilization of alternative power sources. The range of optimality is determined for each of the discussed options, namely the use of autonomous gasoline or diesel generators, energy storage batteries, and the installation of solar power stations. The costs of ownership for each option over a five-year period are calculated, taking into account the resource of each of them. The payback period is determined for a hypothetical small business enterprise in Ukraine. Additionally, the optimal alternative power source for the actual conditions of the energy collapse in Ukraine from November 2022 to January 2023, resulting from missile attacks on the energy infrastructure by the terrorist state, is separately identified. The research is based on the information gathered from the operations of small business enterprises during the energy collapse. The research results in the justification of the most effective method to overcome this problem.

In today's fast-paced business world, out-of-the-box decision-making is essential for business survival and prosperity. One of the keys to making such decisions is creative thinking. The ability to think creatively allows enterprises to find unique solutions, gain competitive advantages and adapt to changing market conditions. However, some argue that creative thinking can lead to risky decisions and may not always align with business goals. Creative thinking allows you to find unique solutions. This allows businesses to identify new opportunities, develop innovative ideas and identify untapped markets. Creativity can lead to the development of a new product or service that solves a problem or meets a need that was not previously considered. Creative thinking allows businesses to come up with such innovative ideas that can transform entire industries.

Objective Identify and synthesize the experience of being a mother of a child with congenital syphilis expressed in the literature and discuss research gaps.Methods Scope review with search in PubMed, Embase, Scopus, Cinahl, Virtual Health Library, Web of Science and Academic Google databases, of publications until 23 and 26 the July 2021. Articles were included according to the criteria: qualitative methodologies, mothers of children with congenital syphilis as participants and studies published in Portuguese, English or Spanish. The process of identification and inclusion of studies for analysis used the PRISMA extension for scope review.Results 256 articles were identified and ten articles were selected for analysis, all from Brazil. The analysis generated four categories: meanings of parenting, stigmatization of the problem, feelings and scenarios of experiences and knowledge about congenital syphilis.Conclusion The maternal experience of the child’s congenital syphilis comprises the feelings and meanings of the diagnosis while exposing the fear of stigmatization, the lack of knowledge about the disease and limitations of prenatal care. New studies should further develop the understanding of the parenting process in the context of congenital syphilis with an impaction care.

Objective To identify and synthesize how access to healthcare for refugee children occurs, and to discuss gaps and directions for future research.Methods A systematic scoping review was conducted in five stages: (1) identification of the research question, (2) detection of relevant studies, (3) study selection, (4) data extraction and summarization, and (5) reporting of results.Results Eight international studies were included in the analysis. The addressed topics focused on sexual health, mental health, cardiovascular care, respiratory care, and challenges in accessing healthcare services. These studies demonstrated that addressing the needs of refugee children requires an understanding of cultural diversity and a comprehensive approach to health promotion, regardless of their place of birth, color, race, religion, gender, or other factors.Conclusion The analyzed studies do not primarily focus on healthcare for settled refugee children. Effective and discrimination-free assistance requires appropriate qualifications and knowledge. There is limited literature on settled refugee children in low-income countries, especially in Latin American ones

Objective: To identify the risk factors for anastomosis leakage (AL) after rectal resection for locally advanced rectal cancers (LARCs) treated with neoadjuvant chemoradiation (nCRT). Material and Methods: A retrospective risk factor study was conducted in LARC patients who received nCRT in Hatyai Hospital from September 2014 to September 2023. The patients were classified into two groups, AL and no anastomotic leak (No-AL) groups. The variables analyzed included age, gender, body mass index (BMI), American Society of Anesthesiologists classification score (ASA), history of significant weight loss, tumor level, time interval between nCRT and surgery, the number of staples, surgical approach, estimated blood loss (EBL), packed red cell (PRC) transfusions, operative time, diverting ostomy, and type of surgery. These predictive factors were analyzed by univariable and multivariable logistic regression. Results: One hundred and seventeen patients were included in the study. The AL rate was 8.5% and the 30-day mortality rate was zero. The study found that BMI, time interval, EBL, and PRC transfusions were associated with a significantly increased AL risk under univariable analysis. In the multivariable analysis, four factors were identified as independent risk factors for AL: BMI less than 18 kg/m2, time interval more than 11 weeks, needing packed red cells blood transfusion, and operative time more than 400 minutes. Conclusion: Diverting stoma can reduce AL consequences but does not reduce its incidence. Diverting stoma should be considered in locally advanced rectal cancer treated with neoadjuvant chemoradiation patients with the risk factors noted above-BMI less than 18 kg/m2, time interval longer than 11 weeks, needing PRC transfusion, or operative time more than 400 minutes.
