Study design: Cross-sectional study Objectives: To determine the predictor variables associated with blood loss during cleft palate surgery. Method: This was carried out for 12 months. Pre-operative records of each participant were taken including the age, sex, BMI, haematocrit, haemoglobin concentration, the length of the cleft defect and the width. Blood loss was determined using colorimetric method of measurement. The blood loss was calculated using the appropriate formula. Multiple regression analysis was done to determine the predictors of increased blood loss. Statistical analysis was carried out with IBM SPSS version 23.0 (2015) with statistical significance assessed at a p-value of ≤ 0.05, and a 95% confidence interval. Result: A total of 39 participants were recruited for this study, with a median age of 24 (IQR: 21–48) months. The mean length of the defects was 32.1±2.6 mm while the mean duration of surgery was 118.1±38.1 mm. The median value of the intra-operative blood loss was 40.2(IQR: 26.7–60.5). The duration of surgery and the age of the patient were the only statistically significant variables in regression analysis (p<0.0001). Conclusion: Predictor variables of increased intra-operative blood loss were the duration of surgery and the age of the patient.

Authors: Pereira Cláudio Maranhão , Gonçalves Allexandra Praxedes , Ribeiro Larielly de Paula
Published: September 2024

Introdução: O carcinoma espinocelular (CEC) da cavidade oral é uma das neoplasias malignas mais comuns na região de cabeça e pescoço, representando até 95% dos casos. Tradicionalmente associado ao consumo de tabaco e álcool, estudos recentes têm destacado um aumento na incidência em mulheres não fumantes e não consumidoras de álcool, com etiologias e fatores de risco ainda não completamente compreendidos. Objetivo: Realizar uma revisão sistemática da literatura sobre o carcinoma espinocelular oral em mulheres não tabagistas e não etilistas, ilustrando os achados com a apresentação de dez casos clínicos diagnosticados em um centro particular na cidade de Goiânia. Materiais e Métodos: Foi realizada uma busca sistemática nas bases de dados Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde Brasil (BVS), Periódicos CAPES, PubMed e SciELO, abrangendo estudos publicados entre 2000 e 2024. Foram incluídos artigos que abordassem o CEC em mulheres não fumantes, disponíveis em português, inglês ou espanhol, totalizando 16 artigos após a aplicação dos critérios de inclusão e exclusão. Dez casos clínicos de pacientes diagnosticadas entre 2023 e 2024 foram revisados e comparados à literatura. Resultados: A revisão de literatura revelou a crescente incidência do CEC em mulheres sem histórico de tabagismo ou etilismo, com predominância de lesões na língua e o aumento de casos entre pacientes mais jovens. Os dez casos clínicos estudados evidenciaram lesões ulceradas e nódulos em várias regiões da cavidade oral, sendo que as pacientes variavam entre 35 e 79 anos. Comorbidades como hipertensão e diabetes estiveram presentes em alguns casos, influenciando o prognóstico e a escolha do tratamento. Os tratamentos adotados incluíram cirurgia, radioterapia e quimioterapia, e três pacientes faleceram durante o acompanhamento. Conclusão: O carcinoma espinocelular oral em mulheres não fumantes é uma condição que desafia a compreensão tradicional de fatores de risco. Embora o tabagismo e o álcool não estejam presentes como causas primárias nesses casos, outros fatores, como infecções virais (HPV), predisposições genéticas e comorbidades, devem ser considerados. Este estudo destaca a necessidade de diagnósticos precoces e de mais pesquisas sobre as possíveis etiologias desta neoplasia em populações não expostas aos fatores de risco clássicos.

Civilization Approach in Economic Researches
Authors: Milovidov Vladimir D.
Published: September 2024

The proposed article presents the author’s view on how the civilizational approach to the analysis of economic processes developed and what it consisted of in various predominantly Russian-language literary sources of the 19th century. The author recognizes that the volume of sources containing evidence of such an approach is immense, so he focuses on those that he considers the most important and indicative for assessing the contribution of Russian science to the development of such a methodology of economic analysis, as well as the modern concept of human economy, to which some of the author’s earlier works were devoted. In the author’s opinion, the civilization approach already at the early stages of economic research helped to bring out non-material, cultural-psychological and moral aspects of economic behavior and formation of economic institutions. Most studies of the impact of civilizational development on the economy demonstrate a certain one-directionality, that is, they are built in the logic of a hierarchical world order: civilized nations are at the top of the pyramid of development, and uncivilized, barbaric nations are located somewhere at its base. The civilizational approach allows us to abandon the “economism”, which has become a template, based on the exclusive recognition of the primacy of material factors of social development. In addition, in the author’s opinion, there is an opportunity to raise the question of the correctness of the multipolarity concept, which can no longer describe in detail the formation of a new world order. The civilizational approach gives a chance to assess the processes of globalization and fragmentation in a new way, not as antagonistic processes, but as mutually conditioned. In general, the future development of a multi-civilizational world order and its conflict-free nature will be largely determined by the willingness of representatives of primarily Western civilization to recognize the need to gradually abandon the paradigm of universality of social development conditions in favor of manners identity paradigm, uniqueness of economic structure and behavior, and the importance of identity for economic development.

The Human Touch in the Age of Artificial Intelligence: A Literature Review on the Interplay of Emotional Intelligence and AI
Authors: Singh Ajit Pal , Saxena Rahul , Saxena Suyash
Published: September 2024

Although artificial intelligence has made significant strides in analyzing extensive datasets and recognizing intricate patterns, it still struggles to replicate the nuanced understanding of human emotions. This study aims to explore the complex relationship between emotional intelligence (EI) and AI, investigating the potential for AI to enhance our understanding and development of EI. Emotion detection in AI often involves analyzing facial expressions, speech patterns, and physiological cues. However, incorporating cultural diversity and biases into training datasets can hinder accuracy and efficiency. A promising area of future research is the development of AI systems capable of not only perceiving emotions but also demonstrating emotional intelligence. Such systems could revolutionize human-robot interactions, fostering more genuine and empathetic connections. Delving into the relationship between EI and AI can gain a deeper understanding of AI's emotional intelligence, appreciating its capabilities and limitations. This knowledge can pave the way for more compassionate and effective human-AI interactions. This knowledge can inform the development of more sophisticated AI systems that can contribute to our own emotional growth and well-being.

Authors: Ghosh Krishna
Published: September 2024

The conservation of Barilius barila (locally known as Boroli) is significant for maintaining ecological balance and supporting the socio-economic fabric of North Bengal, India. This study explores innovative cultivation techniques aimed at preserving this species, which is indigenous to the clear streams and shallow rivers of India, Nepal, Bangladesh, and Myanmar. Despite its classification as "Least Concern" by the IUCN, Barilius barila faces threats from environmental degradation, particularly in North Bengal. This research examines the ecological, socio-economic, ethical, and legal dimensions of Barilius barila conservation, with a focus on the artificial cultivation efforts initiated by the West Bengal government in South Bengal. The study employed a mixed-methods approach i.e. water quality assessments, and socio-economic analyses to assess the effectiveness of these conservation strategies. The findings highlight the challenges posed by anthropogenic activities, including pollution, deforestation, and climate change, which have led to the degradation of natural habitats and a decline in the quality of naturally sourced Barilius barila. The research also addresses ethical concerns regarding the potential impact of artificial cultivation on the species' taste and market value which necessitates legal frameworks to support sustainable practices. This study advances the understanding of Barilius barila conservation by providing an analysis of the species' ecological role, the socio-economic implications of its decline, and the effectiveness of innovative cultivation methods. The finding justifies the importance of balancing technological interventions with the preservation of natural habitats, ensuring the long-term sustainability of Barilius barila and its ecological niche in North Bengal.

Lakhimpur district of Assam has a high avian diversity distributed among different locations. A study was conducted from October 2023 to June 2024 to create avian inventories of the district. Field surveys are important tools to not only observe and evaluate the avian diversity of an area, but also speaks about the rising threats and need of its conservation. Lakhimpur district has many high avian diversity zones of which Satajan wetland, situated between the latitudes 27°12'23.7''N - 27°12'40''N and longitudes 94°03'08.5''E - 94°03'08.8''E, and Ghagor Ghat located between the latitudes 27°13'41" N - 27°15'15" N and longitudes 94°11'25"E - 94°12'19"E were selected for area under the present study. The study recorded three species viz., Eurasian Hobby (Falco subbuteo), Thick-billed Warbler (Arundinax aedon) and Eastern Yellow Wagtail (Motacilla tschutschensis) which were sighted for the first time in the district. Sighting of species, which has not been reported before, implies about the availability of shelter, sufficient food resources and better quality of the ecosystem in Lakhimpur district. All the three species that were recorded during the study are categorized as ‘least concern’ in the IUCN Red List as per latest assessment and all of them were winter visitors to Lakhimpur district of Assam, India. These areas should be protected and managed properly for better survival of the inhabiting wildlife. The findings of this study will encourage more research in these areas for creating a richer avian inventory.

Psychology of the safety of the educational environment
Authors: Marchuk N. Yu. , Legostaeva E. S.
Published: September 2024

Relevance The article is devoted to the analysis of the psychological foundations of the safety of the educational environment. Safety for a person is one of the basic needs, and, consequently, not only a comfort factor, but also a criterion for the functioning, stability and development of a personality. Taking into account the variety of factors affecting education as a social institution, the author reveals the importance of subjective interpretation of the environment for the formation of an individual's mental activity in specific conditions.

The purpose of the study is to consider the phenomenon of security from the perspective of various psychological approaches, a psychological model of security is presented and psychological mechanisms of security are highlighted.

Organization and methods of research. As a complex systemic phenomenon, the safety of the educational environment depends on a large number of diverse conditions. The sociological analysis of education from the totality of influences in relation to the functioning and development of personality allows us to identify three levels of environmental safety factors.

The results of the study and their discussion. Summarizing the data of various authors on the problem of victimization of an individual, three main reasons can be identified for which a person risks falling into a dangerous situation: - the readiness of an individual to get into a dangerous situation - including the sick, the elderly, people with experience of being in the role of a victim; - the assumption (acceptance) of the possibility of crime/violence against a person – for example, criminals, aggressors, manipulators, as well as people with an increased level of anxiety; - naivety, lack of experience and knowledge about danger and self–defense is typical for people who are not socialized in this society, who do not understand its features, including children, migrants.

Conclusions. Thus, ensuring the safety of the educational environment as a complex system involves the analysis of external factors of various scales and the proactive building of the interaction of the individual with the internal components of the environment in accordance with objective circumstances.

Authors: Zhang Yuying , Ma Juanyu , Li Haiyan , Yan Zhaohui
Published: September 2024

Background: Glioblastoma (GBM) is characterized by an unfavorable prognosis and a mere 5.8% 5-year survival rate. The balance between oxidation and reduction within GBM plays a crucial role in its onset and progression, yet the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the role of the sulfoxide-domain containing protein 12 (TXNDC12) in maintaining the oxidation-reduction equilibrium within GBM cells. Methods: Bioinformatics analysis was employed to assess the significance of TXNDC12. Knockdown experiments on U251 and A172 cells to evaluate the impact on cell proliferation in vitro. Additionally, in vivo experiments with stable A172 cells to measure tumor growth reduction. Results: The findings indicate that perturbing TXNDC12 expression through knockdown impeded the proliferation of U251 and A172 cells in vitro. Mechanistic investigations revealed that reducing TXNDC12 expression led to an imbalance in the oxidation-reduction dynamics of GBM. Conclusions: This study highlights TXNDC12 as a potential therapeutic target for GBM. Inducing an imbalance in tumor cell oxidation-reduction processes may represent a novel strategy for advancing cancer treatment.

Authors: Doğan Kadirhan , Payas Ahmet
Published: September 2024

Amaç:Gebelikte nikotine maruz kalmanın fetus üzerine zararlı etkileri bilinmektedir ancak fetusların ortak plasentaya sahip olması anomalisine etkisi nadir görülmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı gebelik süresince nikotine maruz kalan bir ratta meydana gelen monokoryonic monoamniyotik gebelik ve ölü doğum anomalisini sunmaktır. Yöntem:Wistar Albino cinsi rata gebeliğin başladığı günden yirmi birinci güne kadar subkutan yol ile 6 mg/kg nikotin verildi. 21. günde sezaryen ile yavrular izole edildi. Amniyon keselerinden çıkarılan fetus ve plasentalar tartıldı ve fotoğrafları çekildi. Morfometrik özellikleri incelendi. Bulgular:Bir gebe rata ait on bir adet amniyon kesesi bulunmaktaydı. On adet amniyon kesesinde on adet fetus ve on adet plasenta olduğu görülürken; bir adet amniyon kesesinde iki adet fetusa bağlı bir adet plasenta olduğu (monokoryonic monoamniyotik gebelik) görüldü. On adet fetus canlı iken ortak plasentası olan iki fetus ölü doğdu. Sonuç:Bir rat örneğinde gebelik döneminde kullanılan nikotin plasenta malformasyonları yapabileceği gibi monokoryonik monoamniyotik gebeliklerde fetus ölümlerine de neden olabilir.Anahtar Kelimeler:Sigara, fetus, amniyon, ikiz gebelik

Several reported evidences do exist that the transmission of human papilloma (HP) viral infection may occur via non-sexual routes while others show the possibility of detecting HP-viral-DNA in reproductive cells, cord blood, and placental cells. However, there is paucity of background information on HP-viral infection transmission among mothers and newborns which necessitates study. The study aims at determining prenatal transmission of high-risk human papillomavirus genotypes HPV 16 and HPV 18 among antenatal mothers and maternal cervical cells in Western Nigeria. We investigated 113 pregnant women from whom cervical samples were collected during the antenatal clinic and their newborns at the University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital. HP-viral screening, DNA extraction and molecular detection was carried out using MY09/MY11 and GP5+/GP6+ consensus primers while HP-viral high risk genotypes were detected using type-specific primers. HP-viral DNA was detected among 54 (47.8%) cord blood samples and 11 (9.7%) cervical specimens with nine specimens from mothers while newborns samples showed a corresponding HP-viral-DNA results. The genotypic characterization/identification of HP-virus type 16 and 18 from both specimens showed an overall prevalence of 15.0% (7/113) for HPV 16 and 8.0% (9/113) for HPV-18, while only three specimens from corresponding mothers and newborns had HPV-16. Such observation indicates/suggests that mothers are the most probable transmission source of HP-viral-DNA to newborns. Furthermore, the presence of HPV-16 (a high-risk genotype) could portend HP-viral diseases in newborns. In order to avoid transmission during pregnancy, routine monitoring and surveillance are advised for mothers-to-be and those who have recently given birth. HPV vaccinations are required during family planning prior to pregnancy.
