Age of Immersion Effect on Second Language Phonological Acquisition: A Rare Case Study
Authors: Alfuraih Reem
Published: September 2023

This paper integrates and critically reviews current literature on the age effect on second language (L2) phonology. It adds new data to the discussion as it cites a rare case of a Saudi child who was mistakenly raised by a Turkish family for four years and five months due to a hospital malpractice. At the time of the study, he was learning his real family language, Arabic, as an L2. The main focus of this paper is to examine the effect of age of immersion on second language phonology after the cutoff of his first language (L1), investigating the availability of foreign accent. The findings indicate that the case has crossed the boundary into native-level performance from a native speaker’s perspective. Nevertheless, the child’s production differs in a statistically significant way from that of the control group. Foreign accent was detected in his controlled production, depicting a possible effect of age of immersion on second language phonology.

Published: September 2023

Today, research are continued to be conducted to deal with the issues of sexism and discrimination in all layers of social life. In the studies conducted with mental health experts within the literature in the literature, it is understood that mental health experts do not have sufficient knowledge on this subject. This study, which aims to inform undergraduate psychology students on the issue of sexism, seeks to investigate the effect of the course specifically prepared to reduce sexism taken by the students during a semester.
Participants were chosen from undergraduate psychology students, and it is a cross-sectional study. A sociodemographic form and The Ambivalent Sexism Inventory (ASI) were applied to the participants. 35 students participated in the research, the research was conducted with the pre-test and the post-test.
A certain amount of difference has been observed between the scores of the pre-education and post-education hostile and benevolent sexism of all participants. (p<0.001). Moreover, while there was no relationship between students' attendance and hostile sexism scores, students who regularly attended the course had a decrease in their implicit sexism score (p<0.05).
According to the results of the research, it was seen that the gender equality course changed the sexist attitudes of undergraduate psychology students positively. Furthermore, similar studies on sexism and discrimination have provided much scientific data on this issue. The government and the public sector should aim to reach larger masses by using this scientific data to advance its interventions on this issue in Turkey.

Published: September 2023

Obesity has emerged as a risk factor for the Chronic kidney disease (CKD). Recent research propose novel obesity indices like Lipid accumulation product (LAP), Visceral adiposity index (VAI), Cardiometabolic index (CMI) to be associated with CKD risk. We aimed to evaluate the association between novel obesity indices and CKD risk indicators such as estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), urine albumin excretion. Anthropometry measures, plasma lipids, eGFR estimation from serum creatinine and urine albumin creatinine ratio (urine ACR) were performed in 60 apparently healthy adults visiting the health checkup clinic. The subjects were divided based on Body mass index (BMI) as non-obese (n=22) and obese (n=38) groups. Their eGFR and urine ACR were compared using independent t-test or Mann-Whitney test. Spearman correlation test determined the association of obesity and lipid indices with eGFR, urine ACR. Anthropometric measures - BMI, WC (waist circumference), lipid indices - TC/HDLc, LDLc/HDLc ratios, and obesity indices - LAP, CMI were significantly higher in the obese group (p<0.05), while their HDLc levels remained low (p<0.05). eGFR and urine ACR were not significantly different between the study groups. Urine ACR of the study population had significant correlation only with BMI (r=-0.337, p=0.038), Waist-hip ratio (r=-0.386, p=0.017), LAP (r=-0.357, p=0.028); whereas eGFR had no remarkable correlations with any of the obesity indices. There were no significant adverse changes in CKD risk markers of obese subjects. Our findings disprove the association of novel obesity indices with CKD risk markers in obese South Indians, thereby invalidating the utility of these novel obesity indices to predict early CKD risk.

Published: September 2023

To analyze the variation in audiological results with oto-acoustic emission (OAE) and auditory brainstem response (ABR) of term newborns with those at risk (preterm and newborns with hyperbilirubinemia). Auditory screening was conducted in 746 infants born in zonal hospital in western Maharashtra from May 2019 to May 2020. The cases included 633 healthy term, 71 preterm infants managed in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) and 42 newborns with hyperbilirubinemia. Hearing impairment was confirmed through a primary screening by OAE response followed by ABR. Based on these findings, we divided infants into pass and refer. 16 patients in ‘refer’ group were identified through our protocol out of 746 newborns. The incidence of the refer group was 11 out of 633 in term newborns, 3 out of 71 in preterm and 2 out of 42 in newborns with hyperbilirubinemia after OAE. Refer groups were subjected to further evaluation by ABR which was able to remove false positives and a final tally of 8 out of 11 term newborns, 2 out of 3 preterm were found to have hearing loss. Hence, we conclude that incidence of hearing loss detected by OAE in preterm and hyperbilirubinemia newborns was more as compared to term newborns and is significant. OAE followed by ABR is a good modality of audiological assessment in ruling out false positive cases.

Background: C HIV/AIDS infection is characterized by a very low number of T lymphocytes (CD4), which makes sufferers vulnerable to various infections, and so they seek continuous care in Special Infections Units. Objective: The purpose of the survey is to investigate the factors that contribute to the satisfaction derived from the health services provided to people living with the human immunodeficiency virus; and they are monitored at the Special Infections Unit of the University General Hospital of Alexandroupoli. Methods: All patients who came to the Special Infections Unit of the University General Hospital of Alexandroupoli during the period June – July 2021 were asked to complete an anonymous questionnaire on satisfaction derived from the health services provided (E – PQ – SPCSS) and satisfaction derived from their work and quality of life (Occupational Stress Questionnaire, JCQ). The statistical package SPSS 19.0 was used for the statistical analysis of the data. With the help of the ANOVA statistical test, the differences between the variables were checked. P-Value in all audits was set at 0.05. Values showing equal to or less than 0.05 were considered statistically significant. Results: They were 85 patients who participated. Amongst them, they were mainly men (75.3%), the mean age was 35-50 years (50.6%), residents of Thrace (62.3%). 37.7% of the participants said they had some difficulty accessing SIU. Quality of life was positively correlated with education (p<0.001) where the higher reported level of education was, the higher satisfaction rates were. A positive correlation (p<0.001) was also observed amongst income rates where the higher incomes reported, the higher the satisfaction rates were. Lower incomes were significantly associated (p = 0.029) with mental disorders (anxiety, depression). Quality of life was positively associated with both satisfaction with medical as well as nursing care (p <0.008). The adequacy and clarity of the information the patients receive from SIU physicians during their visit shows a significant positive correlation (p<0.001). In addition, there is a significant correlation regarding the problems patients may have experienced in the last 6 months in terms of access to treatment (p<0.021). Conclusion: Participants showed high satisfaction rates from the medical and nursing care provided at the SIU of the PGNA. The opportunity of expression given to users – patients through satisfaction studies promotes and creates a climate of trust between them and the decision-making teams of health units.

Published: September 2023

Background: In December of 2019, SARS-CoV-2, a new type of coronavirus, appeared, and it turned into an international epidemic. The consequences of the pandemic, especially the isolation measures, fear of infection and bad economic trends, as a result of the crisis, threaten people's basic psychological needs. Objective: The objective of this research was to assess the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on mental health and perceived social support of persons with disabilities in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Methods: The research included a total sample of 232 respondents with different types of disabilities. The Symptom Checklist (SCL-90) was used to verify the research objective, which assessed three dimensions: somatization, depression and anxiety. Also, in order to verify the research objective, the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support was applied, which consists of 12 statements that measure the perceived social support of family, friends and other people. The research data was processed with descriptive and inferential statistics. The basic statistical parameters were calculated, while the t-test was used for an independent sample of respondents to verify the set objective. Results: The results of the research showed that persons with disabilities, who were infected with the SARS-Cov-2 virus, had a significantly higher level of somatization, anxiety and depression compared to those who were not infected with the virus. The results in relation to social support did not prove to be statistically significant. Conclusion: The obtained results lead to the conclusion that, in the future, interventions by experts of various profiles must be planned to preserve the mental health of persons with disabilities, which is why it is important to invest in the emotional, psychological, social, physical and spiritual well-being of the individual.

Background: Axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) is a potentially disabling inflammatory arthritis of the spine, usually presenting as chronic back pain typically before the age of 45 years. It is often associated with one or more articular features, including synovitis, enthesitis, and dactylitis. It may also be associated with several non-articular features; these include uveitis, psoriasis, and inflammatory bowel diseases1.Objective: The aim of this article is to describe the status of using biological drugs and some related factors in treating ankylosing spondylitis in Vietnam. Methods: A joint prospective and retrospective cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted on 161 ankylosing spondylitis patients treated with biological drugs at the Centre for Rheumatology between January 2018 and July 2021. Data were collected at the first dose and after 3, 6, 12, 24, and 36 months, including general characteristics, clinical and para-clinical features, drug use status, and related factors. Results: Of the 161 patients, 86.3% were male, with a mean age of 31.1 ± 11.6 years and a mean disease duration of 7.6 ± 6.6 years. Most patients were started on biologics at stage II (46.6%) or III (28.6%). Moreover, 68.9% had active disease based on the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index. The most commonly prescribed first-line therapy was anti-tumor necrosis factor (69.6%), with infliximab the most frequently prescribed drug (44.7%). The rate of biological drug treatment decreased gradually from 100% at the start to 77% after one year and 39.1% after three years. Moreover, 74% of patients changed drugs due to non-response, and 50% discontinued treatment for economic reasons. Age was associated with treatment adherence, and drug change rates were higher in female patients and patients with active disease. Age was significantly associated with drug discontinuation (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Infliximab was the most commonly prescribed first-line drug. The rate of biological therapy gradually decreased after three years. Most patients changed drugs due to non-response, and many discontinued the drugs for economic reasons. Among the individual and clinical factors, age was associated with treatment adherence.

Background: Pregnancy is an admirable biological process, resulting in significant changes in many of the body's normal systems so that they can support the development of the fetus. These changes involve hormonal changes, weight gain, immune system regulation, and others that need to be synchronized to maintain both maternal and fetal health. Objective: The purpose of this study was to compare gut microbiome in neonates born by caesarean section and vaginal seeding with gut microbiomes of neonates born by caesarean section without vaginal seeding and neonates born by vaginal delivery. Methods: In Democritus University of Thrace, from 2019 to 2022, gut microbiomes were compared for three groups of neonates. Group A included 110 neonates born by CS who underwent vaginal seeding, group B included 85 neonates born by CS without vaginal seeding and group C included 95 neonates born by vaginal delivery. Results: Vaginal seeding in neonates born with CS resulted in gut microbiome which was similar to the gut microbiome of neonates born by vaginal delivery (including lactobacillus species and bacteroides). On the contrary, gut microbiome of neonates born by CS without vaginal seeding was “limited”. Conclusion: According to our findings, vaginal seeding alters the gut microbiome of the neonates born with CS. However, there is a need for further investigation to prove its efficacy and its safety for the neonate.

O mercado futebolístico brasileiro encara uma adaptação contínua no modelo de gestão dos clubes desde a criação da Lei 14.193/2021, que institui a Sociedade Anônima do Futebol (SAF). O modelo tem grande adesão na Europa, onde os principais clubes de sucesso mundial adotaram e seguiram caminho contrário ao comum e tradicional modelo de Associação Civil. A chegada da SAF ao Brasil espera profissionalizar os clubes e atrair investimentos, principalmente dos que acumulam dívidas enormes e possuem cada vez mais dificuldades de estabilização, todavia, a tendência segundo Pedro Oliveira (2023) é que a segunda leva de aquisições de clubes seja diferente. O objetivo geral deste estudo foi analisar o processo de cisão dos clubes brasileiros Cruzeiro e Botafogo para Sociedade Anônima do Futebol e suas consequências. A pesquisa teve abordagem descritiva, tendo cunho Quali-quantitativo, e utilizou-se a pesquisa documental para análise do conteúdo obtido. Os resultados obtidos foram uma análise clara e objetiva dos primeiros movimentos de mudança, da adaptação e das projeções dos clubes-empresas afetados pela nova tendência de gestão do futebol brasileiro.

Published: September 2023

Background: Improvements in medical and pharmacologic management of HIV/AIDS has led to increased life expectancy for the afflicted individuals. Hence, the focus of management for People Living With HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) has shifted to issues relating to function and Quality of Life (QoL). Information is scarce on disability issues and quality of life among people living with HIIV/AIDS in Nigeria. This was the premise of this study that assessed the level of disability and how it related to quality of life among people living with HIV/AIDS in Ibadan, the largest city in Nigeria.Methods: 360 PLWHA (274 females; 86 males)aged 37.79±9.37 years participated in this study. They were recruited from the anti-retroviral clinics of one secondary and one tertiary healthcare facilities in Ibadan, Nigeria. Disability and QoL were assessed using the 12-item WHO Disability Assessment Schedule (WHODAS 2.0) and the WHOQOL_HIV Bref respectively. Data were analysed using Chi square and Kruskal Wallis test at p = 0.05.Results: Almost a quarter (23.6%) reported being currently ill, with HIV/AIDS-related symptoms accounting for the highest perceived illness (42.5%).Majority of these participants (71.1%) had mild to extreme disabilities. There were no significant associations (p > 0.05) between disability and each of age, sex and employment status. Disability was however, significantly associated with level of education, alcohol use, CD4 count, history of tuberculosis and QoL (p <0.01).Conclusion: Disability was relatively high among people living with HIV/AIDS in Ibadan, Nigeria. Although mostly rated mild, disability was associated with poor QoL. This underscores the need for early identification of disability in people living with HIV/AIDS to minimise its impact on their QoL.
The Contemporary Concept of Odious Debts: Iraq’s Debts as a Model
Authors: Alshbib Duraid K.
Published: September 2023

Iraqi loans stood out because of their unique characteristics. The international blockade in 1991, the occupation in 2003, and the actions of puppet administrations were among the many events that contributed to this debt, with the first two being the most significant. and corruption with many faces. Due to these policies, Iraq is currently undergoing debt restructuring under the supervision and guidelines of the IMF. The goal of the research was to examine the causes of the increase in Iraqi debt following the invasion in 2003. The study discovered that even in the case of a revenue surplus, Iraqi governments continued to construct annual budgets with deficits that are financed by debt. It caused Iraq’s debts to grow and accumulate. Debt has grown to be a significant issue for the Iraqi economy and financial system. Iraqi debts are viewed negatively due to their impact on the welfare of the Iraqi people. According to the international doctrine of odious debts, Iraq has the right not to pay these payments.
Um conceito específico de corpo para a psicomotricidade

Published: September 2023

A descoberta neurofisiológica da área cortical psico-motora, em 1870, originou a história da Psicomotricidade. Quando recebeu o status de ciência, em 1960, várias práticas eram conhecidas, baseadas em noções de tonicidade, motricidade, lateralidade, organização de espaço e tempo, coordenação global e fina, ritmo, controle e equilíbrio motor. Considerada   a ciência do corpo, no entanto, é uma ciência sem corpo teórico próprio. Com as influências das abordagens neurofisiológicas, psicológicas, psicanalíticas e fenomenológicas, ao longo de sua história, a Psicomotricidade herdou diferentes formas de conceber e intervir no fenômeno psicomotor. Tendo como parâmetro a unicidade do ser humano, tais diferenças levam a constantes paradoxos. É necessário um conceito específico de corpo, fundamentado no princípio da unidade do ser vivo, mais coerente com sua prática, abarcando tais diferenças? Ultrapassar a concepção dicotômica corpo/mente, em direção ao paradigma psicomotor? Revigorar essa ciência, neste momento importante do seu reconhecimento como profissão no Brasil?  Diante das transformações que envolvem as subjetividades, atualmente, reconhece-se que há uma ligação entre subjetividade - forma-sujeito; tempo- história; corpo – potência resistente de diferenciação. Subjetividades essas captadas pelos saberes e poderes dos processos de subjetivação. As práticas psicomotoras, ao se voltarem para o corpo, resistem criativamente aos processos de subjetivação historicamente constituídos. Revisaram-se as abordagens clássicas utilizadas pela Psicomotricidade, identificando-se os conceitos de corpo cortical (neurofisiológicas), consciente (psicológicas), erógeno-fantasmático e psicossoma (psicanalíticas) e vivido (fenomenológicas). E as contribuições sobre corporificação da Teoria da Enatividade e de algumas teorias contemporâneas da Neurociência. Na necessidade de um objeto de estudo, sugere-se o conceito de corpo plural, corpo que se transforma, fundamentando as noções originadoras, as teorias clássicas e contemporâneas, utilizadas em diferentes práticas, norteando outras.
Transtorno de Compra Compulsiva (TCC): Atualizando a Literatura Sobre os Compradores Compulsivos sob a Ótica do Comportamento do Consumidor
Authors: Guimarães Rafael Moreira
Published: September 2023

Para muitas pessoas, decisões relacionadas a compras constituem apenas parte de sua rotina. Para alguns consumidores, contudo, o consumo assume papel particularmente central e acarreta graves implicações em distintos aspectos de suas vidas. Nestes casos, o consumo torna-se disfuncional, e é frequentemente caracterizado a partir de traços compulsivos, denominados por muitos autores como um transtorno. Neste contexto, é crescente o número de pesquisadores que se interessam por temas outrora marginalizados, como a compulsão por compras, parte de uma categoria mais ampla de comportamentos de consumo compulsivos, e baseada por atos de compra repetitivos, crônicos, que se tornam a primeira resposta a eventos ou sentimentos negativos (O'Guinn e Faber, 1989, p. 155). Estudar comportamentos de compra compulsivos torna-se relevante na medida em que tal conduta apresenta reflexos claros no bem-estar do consumidor por conta de aspectos como a frequência com que ocorre; o valor total despendido; e as consequências disfuncionais que resultam de tais comportamentos (d'Astous, 1990; Ridgway, Kukar-Kinney e Monroe, 2008). Pela relevância e ineditismo do tema, esse ensaio objetiva: 1) Apresentar revisão atualizada da literatura sobre os principais construtos relacionados à Compulsão e ao Transtorno da Compra Compulsiva, doravante denominado TCC; e 2) Elaborar levantamento acerca dos principais métodos e técnicas utilizados para o estudo deste fenômeno, exemplificando as principais pesquisas e seus objetivos.

O peixe tem propriedades nutricionais desejáveis ​​e é considerado parte integrante de uma dieta saudável e de uma economia alimentar estabelecida, beneficiando a saúde humana. Em muitas partes do mundo, especialmente nos países em desenvolvimento, as comunidades são altamente dependentes do peixe para suas necessidades alimentares. A produção mundial de pescado aumentou substancialmente ao longo dos anos. Estima-se que entre 1998 e 2030, o consumo per capita aumentará de 22 kg para 24 kg. Dessa forma, objetivou-se com esta revisão de literatura identificar coprodutos de pescado agregando valor a qualidades, fonte nutricional existentes de coprodutos de pescado. A análise e caracterização dos componentes nutricionais dos coprodutos podem determinar sua utilidade. Os resultados observados demonstram que a extração de carne mecanicamente separada aumenta o uso de matéria-prima, otimizando custos de produção, indicando que o peixe é uma fonte alimentar de proteína facilmente digerível e de baixo custo.

Objective: This study aimed to examine and explain the effect of storytelling and product innovation on the purchase intention of cosmetics made from natural ingredients through value co-creation and moderated by farmer empowerment.
 
Method: The method used is a quantitative approach using Structural Equation Model Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS) models technique on SmartPLS 3.0. The sampling technique used is a non-probability sampling technique, and the respondent was natural cosmetic users in Indonesia.
 
Results: The results show that storytelling is related to purchase intention and is also related to value co-creation which in the end value co-creation can increase purchase intention. In addition, product innovation can also increase purchase intention and value co-creation, which can escalate purchase intention. Empowerment does not significantly affect purchase intention directly, but the empowerment that moderates storytelling proves to exert a significant influence on purchase intention. Value co-creation significantly mediated the effect of storytelling on purchase intention, and it mediated the effect of product innovation on purchase intention.
 
Conclusion: New product innovations are proven to have a significant effect on the purchase intention and value co-creation process. Value co-creation is proven to be able to increase purchase intention and also able to mediate storytelling and product innovation to increase purchase intention. Finally, farmer empowerment has been able to provide reinforcement when storytelling seeks to increase purchase intention.

Objective: This study from Thailand examined business model development to help transform low-graded ribbed smoked sheet (RSS) rubber into cow shoe production targeting dairy farming. With the Industry 4.0 concept of the knowledge-based economy in the central focus, the research objective was to examine both the supply and demand sides for developing a practical knowledge-based cow shoe business model.
 
Methods: This qualitative research adopted the concepts of knowledge-based entrepreneurship (KBE) and Osterwalder's business model canvas to guide the investigative design. It used documentary analysis, in-depth interviews, and a focus group discussion as the data collection instruments. The data analysis technique was a generic interpretive approach allowing the researchers to analyze the data by constructing codes, categories, and result conceptualization based on the underpinning conceptions of KBE and the business model canvas.
 
Results: This study confirmed cow shoe production as a potential downstream business for rubber production in Thailand with the possibility of KBE characterization of innovation, growth, and competitive advantage. Cow shoes could be sold throughout the year for cattle nourishing routines to ease the pain from hoof and claw trimming. Critical success factors for KBE development in this business included creating production technology transfer networks, promoting financial and knowledge support from rubber promotional authorities and regional universities, and developing a sustainable ecosystem for rubber production to be linked in the value chain with rubber biofuel and cattle farming industries.
 
Conclusion: Considering that innovative rubber production was often suggested at the policymaking level, this paper has filled the knowledge gap by delivering a novel practical framework, supported by empirical evidence, to promote KBE in cow shoe business development as a sustainable downstream business.

Published: September 2023

Bronchogenic cysts are primitive, foregut-derived developmental anomalies with bronchial-type, pseudostratified cylindrical epithelium commonly occurring in the thorax. Bronchogenic cysts can occur in the retroperitoneum, albeit rarely. We report a case of a 53-year-old man presenting with vague abdominal pain who was diagnosed with a well-defined lesion in the left supra renal region on computed tomography imaging with few haemorrhagic, calcific, and heterogeneously enhancing foci. The left adrenal gland could not be delineated separately. Preoperative workup for a functioning adrenal tumour was negative. The differential diagnoses were atypical adrenal cyst, neurogenic ganglioma, and exophytic diaphragmatic tumour. The patient underwent excision of the left adrenal/retroperitoneal mass. Histopathology revealed features suggestive of a bronchogenic cyst. Diagnostic imitations exist preoperatively in a bronchogenic cyst, and only histology can provide a definitive diagnosis. Surgery remains the treatment of choice.

Published: September 2023

Herpes zoster, occurs by the reactivation of the varicella-zoster virus (VZV), the same virus that causes varicella, also known as chickenpox. Once varicella resolves, the virus remains inactive in the dorsal root and cranial ganglia. Pharyngolaryngeal zoster constitutes a rare clinical manifestation of this medical entity. The unilateral varicelliform eruptions of the oral cavity, pharynx and larynx are the typical clinical presentation. Postherpetic complications, with the exception of neuralgia, are rarely mentioned in the literature. We present the case of an 80-year-old male with pharyngolaryngeal zoster and normal function of the glossopharyngeal and vagal nerve, who suffered from persistent postherpetic dry cough and neuralgia, which subsided with pregabalin.

Authors:   Department of Trauma and Orthopaedics Surgery, Clinic Barcelona Hospital University, Spain., Barquiel Vives
Published: September 2023

Degloving injuries occur when shearing forces act parallel to the tissues, resulting in displacement of superficial layers and separation of the skin and subcutaneous tissue from deep structures, such as muscular fascia and muscles [1]. These types of injuries are considered severe, with high morbidity and mortality rates [2], due to the increased risk of infections, thermal dysregulation, and fluid loss [3]. The severity of a degloving injury depends on factors such as the mechanism of injury, patient comorbidities, anatomical region, and type of injury (open or closed) [4]. Such injuries must be treated as a life-threatening emergency.
