Accounting for effects of monitored speech: vowel nasalization, nasal consonant weakening and /s/ production in Spanish
Authors: Bongiovanni Silvina
Published: September 2024

In laboratory studies, speakers often modify their speech (e.g., by hyper-articulating, attempting a “supra-regional” norm, or hypercorrecting) to ‘speak correctly’, especially under the (perceived) expectation of formal speech. A strategy to address this challenge involves comparing performance on one variable against a well-documented pattern on another variable. Previous research in Spanish shows /s/ sensitivity to speech formality, making it a useful comparison for probing other lenition processes. This study uses the acoustics of coda /s/ to predict the acoustics of /n/ and pre-nasal vowels among speakers of Argentine and Dominican Spanish, two dialects in which these have been widely attested. The data analyzed come from 28 speakers of Dominican Spanish and 26 of Argentine Spanish, recorded with a nasometer (a split channel set of microphones that record nose and mouth signals separately). Findings shows pervasive presence of frication for /s/ (whether [s] or [h]), suggesting heightened attention to speech. Additionally, longer /s/ co-occurs with longer nasal consonants. However, when duration of /s/ was compared to the time-course of nasalization, only the Argentine data showed earlier onset of nasalization with shorter /s/. The addition of a well-known sociolinguistic variable can serve as a validity measure for a less understood variable.

Biodegradable (green) materials have been gained momentous attention and extensively used for environmental restoration as a result of recent environmental legislations. The current study involved treating Pithecellobium dulce seed pod (PSD) powder with acetic acid to look examined the possibility of using treated P. dulce (PD) to remove Reactive Red 195-A from its aqueous solution. The treated material was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), differential thermal analysis (DTA), and thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA). Different constraining factors, such as dye concentration, temperature, contact time, and solution pH, and sorbent dose were examined using batch adsorption trials. Further, the Freundlich and Temkin, alongside the Langmuir equations were employed to analyze the different isotherms. The results showed that Temkin isotherm was found to be validated by the experimental findings on RRD adsorption by the prepared adsorbent. The findings exposed that the adsorbing process tailed pseudo-second order kinetic model, as demonstrated by a correlation coefficient R2 greater than 0.90. According to thermodynamic investigations, adsorption was endothermic and took place spontaneously. The findings suggested that the seed pod of the PD plant might be a cheaper substitute for the chemical adsorbents used to remove dyes.

Published: September 2024

Le MT Lab est le premier incubateur en Amérique du Nord ayant pour mission de propulser l’entrepreneuriat et innovation dans les secteurs du tourisme, de la culture et du divertissement. Cette organisation biface dessert ces secteurs dans leurs besoins évolutifs et soutient les organisations incubées qui pourront éventuellement répondre aux besoins de ces secteurs. Or, cette structure peut créer des tensions identitaires provenant de ses nombreuses parties prenantes. Cette étude de cas explore les tensions et le rôle paradoxal des parties prenantes dans le développement stratégique de l’organisation établie à Montréal. À l’issue de cette étude de cas comportant une décomposition temporelle de trois périodes, des paradoxes émergent : l’identité organisationnelle est à la fois un construit structurant et évolutif et, en mobilisant l’ambiguïté stratégique pour transiger avec les sources d’ambiguïté identitaire, les acteurs organisationnels peuvent également ralentir leur développement.
Intégrité publique au Canada : description, critiques et observations des réformes proposées par le projet de loi C-290 à la Loi sur la protection des fonctionnaires divulgateurs d’actes répréhensibles
Authors: Simard Jeanne , Mayer Jordan , Aubin France
Published: September 2024

En 2007, la Loi sur la protection des fonctionnaires divulgateurs d’actes répréhensibles a été instaurée pour protéger tous les fonctionnaires fédéraux canadiens, sauf quelques exceptions. Cependant, cette loi est devenue rapidement obsolète et inefficace, notamment en ce qui concerne la confidentialité des lanceurs d’alerte et leur protection contre les représailles. Comparée aux lois internationales, elle est jugée insuffisante. Face à l'inaction du gouvernement, un député de l’opposition a proposé en juin 2022 le projet de loi C-290, visant à réformer la loi de 2007 et à modifier la Loi sur les conflits d’intérêts. Adopté à la Chambre des communes le 31 janvier 2024, ce projet devrait entrer en vigueur d'ici fin 2024. Cet article examine d’abord les dispositions de la loi de 2007, puis les critiques qu’elle a reçues, et enfin les améliorations proposées par le projet de loi, tout en soulignant les lacunes qui persistent.
Les marques territoriales bioalimentaires à l’épreuve des perceptions et des représentations des consommateurs québécois
Authors: Korai Bernard , Lambert Rémy , Ducharme Marie-Ève
Published: September 2024

Alors que la pandémie de COVID-19 a contribué à renforcer l’intérêt des Québécois pour l’achat local, on observe paradoxalement une stagnation, voire un recul du niveau réel de demande envers ces produits localisés. Au-delà du facteur économique perçu comme le critère le plus apparent, à ce jour, les études se sont rarement penchées sur le rapport que les consommateurs entretiennent avec ces produits par le biais des marques territoriales qui les promeuvent. Comment les consommateurs québécois perçoivent-ils ces marques? Quels sont les déterminants de l’acceptabilité de ces marques comme gage de localité des produits du terroir? Quel est le niveau de notoriété dont elles jouissent dans l’esprit de ces consommateurs? Quelles stratégies pourrait-on mettre en place afin d’accroître leur pénétration dans les habitudes des consommateurs? Autant de questions auxquelles s’attèle cette recherche menée auprès d’un échantillon représentatif de 1203 consommateurs québécois. Nos conclusions soulignent la nécessité pour les régions de renforcer leur identité, de mieux communiquer sur leurs atouts et d’accroître la visibilité de leurs marques territoriales pour stimuler l’intérêt des consommateurs.

У статті, яка пропонується як енциклопедична, проаналізовано важливість музичної культури ЗУНР і творчості митців в усвідомленні українцями своєї державності й потенціалу своєї музики. Акцентовано, що проголошення ЗУНР створило умови для укріплення головних  складових полінаціонального мистецтва в її етнографічних регіонах. Краса звучання музичних творів популяризувала значення ЗУНР в очах світової спільноти. У статті наголошено на описі мистецького життя Станиславова, як третьої столиці ЗУНР, а також Львова, Чернівців, Коломиї. Досліджено, що серед музичних жанрів найбільш популярною була пісня, яка не тільки відтворювала й підтримувала віру нашого народу в скрутні часи, а й була одним із головних засобів зміцнення духу українського війська, складовою взаємодії вояків тощо. Показано, що одним із стимулів розвитку музики в ЗУНР і залучення до музикування-сприймання мистецтва різними верствами населення, була організація концертів для збору коштів на нужди армії та Українського Червоного Хреста. Окреслено прикмети галицького музичного бідермаєра, який сформувався як своєрідне русло в загальноєвропейському музичному потоці та проявлявся в активному застосуванні національних тенденцій завдяки мотивам стрілецьких пісень, обробці народних пісень. Доведено велику роль музичного мистецтва в час війни у підтримуванні міжнародного престижу й  утвердженні українства.

COVID-19 is associated with a wide range of negative effects on the cardiovascular system. The aim of our study was to investigate the impact of COVID-19 on the interdependence of changes in the microcirculation system and heart rate variability in patients with chronic coronary artery disease (CAD). An ECG study was performed in 12-lead leads, as well as 24-hour Holter ECG monitoring and laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF). Patients were divided into 3 groups. Group 1 included patients with coronary artery disease (n = 32), group 2 - with coronary artery disease in combination with COVID-19 (n = 35), and group 3 - with COVID-19 (n = 35). The control group consisted of 30 conditionally healthy individuals. All subjects were determined: microcirculation index, capillary blood flow reserve of the occlusion test, as well as nitroglycerin test and wavelet transform indicators (the relationship between the frequency and amplitude of microcirculatory oscillations, which are divided into endothelial, neurogenic, myogenic, respiratory and cardiac mechanisms of microcirculation regulation). The deterioration of endothelial function, as measured by the maximum amplitude of endothelial flux motions, should be noted, and a decrease in the endotheliumdependent and endothelium-independent components of microcirculation regulation. The capillary blood flow reserve of the occlusion test in patients with CAD in combination with COVID-19 was lower than in patients with CAD (group 1) and COVID-19 (group 3). In patients of the study groups, the total heart rate variability decreased, parasympathetic activity was weakened, and the QT interval duration and its variability increased compared with controls. These changes were most pronounced in patients with coronary artery disease in combination with COVID-19 in terms of the standard deviation of all intervals, the parasympathetic component of regulation, and both characteristics of the QT interval. Thus, patients with chronic CAD and concomitant COVID-19, along with endothelial dysfunction and worsening venous outflow, showed signs of autonomic dysregulation and increased QT interval duration and variability. Additional consideration of the characteristics of the microcirculatory bed, heart rate variability and QT interval is advisable in the examination system of such patients.
Liberdade em vertigem

Conjectura-se, no presente trabalho, uma análise do problema da fundamentação filosófica-jurídica acerca dos Direitos Humanos. Questiona-se: para quem os Direitos Humanos servem? Os Direitos Humanos são considerados como o resultado de uma vitória histórica da humanidade. Entretanto, o próprio desdobramento da globalização e do capitalismo, após a revolução digital, em capitalismo selvagem, desenfreado, total e radical, resultou na estruturação daquilo que Marx já havia detectado há quase 200 anos: o abismo existente entre os modos de vida de duas humanidades. De um lado os que possuem os meios de produção e efetivam sua cidadania frente aos aparelhos ideológicos do Estado; e do outro, os meros ‘cidadãos abstratos’, os fantoches que dão sustento a essas superestruturas que promovem a manutenção do status quo que ameaça o bem mais precioso que o ser humano possui: a vida. O presente artigo tem por propósito investigar de forma crítica em quais circunstâncias o discurso hegemônico que fundamentou os Direitos Humanos se estabeleceu como um mecanismo de subjetivação e formatação das sociedades contemporâneas por meio principalmente de dois institutos: a liberdade e a propriedade privada. Para tanto, entrelaçar-se-á, de um lado, o aprofundamento das Linhas Fundamentais da Filosofia do Direito de Hegel que ajudaram a consolidar os Diretos Humanos, e, por outro, a crítica aos Direitos Humanos fundamentada e enunciada por Karl Marx.

Multiple mobility edges in quasi-periodic mosaic lattices revisited: A numerical study based on time-dependent reflection
Authors: Nguyen Phi Ba
Published: September 2024

The dynamics of a short wave packet in one-dimensional quasi-periodic lattices withmosaic modulated on-site potentials is investigated numerically. This model is characterized bythe modulation period $\kappa$ and the quasi-periodic potential strength $\lambda$. For parabolic wave packetswith a given central energy $E_{0}$, we calculate the averaged time-dependent reflectance, $\langle R(t) \rangle$, forvarious values of $\kappa$ and $\lambda$. From the extensive numerical calculations, we show that there existmultiple mobility edges in such a model with the number of mobility edges is always equal to $2(\kappa-1)$.

Purpose: It has been observed that the number of patients with hip avascular necrosis who applied to our clinic after Covid-19 and steroid treatment in Covid-19 treatment has increased. It is emphasized in the literature that core decompression therapy is effective in early stage femoral head avascular necrosis. Core It has been emphasized in many publications that the results of intraoperative platelet- rich plasma (PRP) application after decompression are effective. However, intraoperative The method of application of platelet- rich plasma (PRP) and its effectiveness in the post-Covid-19 period are not emphasized enough in the literature. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of local platelet-rich plasma (PRP) administered using the new technique after core decompression to patients diagnosed with avascular necrosis.
Materials and methods: Local platelet- rich plasma (PRP) was applied to 15 hips diagnosed with femoral head avascular necrosis after core decompression with a new technique. Early results of the patients were evaluated with Ficat and Harris hip scores.
Results: An improvement was detected in the early clinical and Magnetic resonance (MR) findings of a total of 15 hip avascular necrosis patients . Local treatment in patients with avascular necrosis with a medical history of Covid-19 The feasibility of PRP was demonstrated.
Conclusion: This study shows the importance of the intraoperative application method of platelet- rich plasma (PRP) and that platelet- rich plasma (PRP) can also be applied to Covid-19 patients. But we believe long-term results are needed.

Cerebrovascular accident is the fourth leading cause of death in Malaysia in 2022. Therefore, medical students must recognize the factors associated with stroke management regarding early diagnosis and proper treatment, so no delay in the treatment, and better outcomes. The aim of this study is to assess the knowledge of the International Medical University (IMU) medical students on the management of stroke at acute, hyperacute, and advanced levels.

A cross-sectional study of students from the IMU Clinical campus in Seremban, Kluang, and Batu Pahat was performed. A questionnaire has been constructed to collect and gather data on participants’ knowledge regarding acute stroke management, consisting of 29 true or false statements, and is adapted from The Acute Stroke Management Questionnaire (ASMaQ), which is used to measure the knowledge of acute stroke management among Malaysia healthcare professionals. Using statistical analysis, we assess the level of knowledge of IMU clinical campus junior medical students (Year 4) and senior medical students (Year 5) about stroke management.

A total number of 150 participants were enrolled, with 82 and 68 participants from junior and senior groups respectively. In terms of academic performance, all senior medical students and most junior medical students achieved passing marks by scoring ≥ 17 out of 29 questions correctly. Fisher Exact Test did not display a statistically significant result (p = 0.547, p < 0.05).

The junior and senior medical students have adequate knowledge about acute stroke management. There is no significant difference in acute stroke management knowledge between junior and senior medical students in our study.

This study aimed to determine the prevalence of self-medication and to explore the attitude, knowledge, and practice of self-medication in Shabwah Governorate, Yemen.

This cross-sectional study was conducted in Shabwa Governorate, Yemen from January 1, 2024 to March 31, 2024. Approximately 385 households within the governorate areas were selected through systematic random sampling. Permission to conduct this study was obtained from local authorities as there is no research committee in the governorate.

A total of 385 study participants were recruited with a response rate of 100% (N = 385). The prevalence of self-medication in this study was 69.9%. The most common reason for self-medication was time-saving 180 (66.9%), followed by cost-saving 137 (50.9%). The main indication for self-medication was fever/cough 214 (79.6%), followed by skin problems 140 (52.0%), while the most commonly used self-medication was antibiotics. Most 220 participants (81.8%) were unaware of the side effects before self-medication.

Self-medication has become a significant health and well-being problem in Shabwah Governorate, which has been exacerbated by the current situation in the country. In this study, the prevalence of self-medication was 69.9%. We recommend investigating self-medication practices across the country to generalize our findings and help health authorities formulate their policies on the rational use of medicines in the country and raise awareness among the population about the disadvantages of self-medication.
Annular pancreas: A rare cause of duodenal obstruction in elderly
Authors: Zacharia George Sarin , Jacob Anu
Published: September 2024

Pancreas annulare is a rare congenital anomaly in which a band of pancreatic tissue partially or completely encloses the second part of the duodenum. The anomaly may be asymptomatic throughout life; when symptomatic, it may manifest as pancreatitis, peptic ulcer, duodenal obstruction, or rarely, extrahepatic biliary obstruction. We report a patient aged 74 years who presented with signs of gastric outlet obstruction. The diagnosis was confirmed preoperatively by computed tomography as duodenal stenosis due to a annular pancreas and was successfully treated with surgical duodenojejunostomy. Only a few similar cases have been described in the published medical literature. This case highlights the need to think beyond the common causes of gastric outlet or duodenal obstruction. In addition, cross-sectional abdominal imaging has become an inevitable tool in diagnosing and treating abdominal pathologies, allowing accurate diagnosis and planned surgical interventions.

Background: The pursuit of developing effective drugs as antioxidants can be traced back to herbal ingredients, including purslane (Portulaca oleracea). The potential of purslane as a medicinal herb can be maximized by selecting the most suitable extraction method and type of solvent. Objective: To assess the levels of total phenolic compounds, total flavonoids, and radical scavenging capacity in P. oleracea obtained through various extraction methods and solvents. Methods: This study combines maceration and reflux methods with 96% ethanol, 80% ethanol, 96% methanol, and 80% methanol solvents to extract total phenolics, flavonoids, and radical scavenging activity from purslane. The folin-ciocalteu method was employed for measuring phenolic content, the AlCl3 method for flavonoid content, and the DPPH method for radical scavenging activity determination. Results: The reflux method using 80% methanol produced the highest total phenolic content, 5.15 ± 0.07 mg GAE/g DW. The maceration method using the same solvent yielded the highest total flavonoid content, 5.74 ± 0.29 mg QE/g DW. Both extraction methods showed similar radical scavenging activity, 1.10 ± 0.003 mg AAE/g DW for maceration and 1.07 ± 0.04 mg AAE/g DW for reflux. Conclusion: The extraction method and solvent significantly impact the total phenolic and flavonoid content produced by P. oleracea.

Comparative Analytical Study of Shatavari Ghrut Prepared by Two Different Rules of Snehapak: A Quantitative Estimation of Shatavarin IV
Authors: Paradkar Ashvini , Wanjari Anita
Published: September 2024

Background: Sneha Kalpana is an important dosage form in Ayurveda known for treating various diseases. Sneha Kalpana involves extracting fat and transforming water-soluble active components from simple ingredients into a fatty substance known as Sneha. There are many rules mentioned for Sneha preparation, which include an essential guideline of adhering to a specific time duration for the Snehapaka process. This duration is not fixed and varies depending on the nature and constituents of the Dravya (ingredients) incorporated along with the Sneha. Aim: To prepare Shatavari Ghrut adhering to both the rules, develop SOP and then analyse its physicochemical properties, quantitative High-Performance Thin Layer Chromatography (HPTLC) analysis and microbial counts. Method: Shatavari Ghrut is one of the formulations which is broadly used in Ayurveda practice. In this formulation milk is used as liquid media and also the roots of Shatavari (Asparagus racemossus wild) are used. According to the time duration of snehapak, two rules are applicable here, which are, Sneha is prepared using milk for a duration of 2 days and Sneha is prepared using Mool (Roots) for 12 days, so accordingly Shatavari Ghrut 1 (SG1) is prepared in 2 days and Shatavari Ghrut 2 (SG2) is prepared in 12 days. Result: The physicochemical parameters suggest that both the SG1 (2 days) and SG2 (12 days) exhibit similar characteristics with minor variations, the HPTLC fingerprinting results for both the SG1 and SG2 samples observe that Shatavarin IV percentage is higher in SG2 (12 days) than SG1 (2 days). Conclusion: The higher concentration of Shatavarin IV in the SG2 (12 days) indicates that prolonged processing enhances the extraction or synthesis of this bioactive compound in Shatavari Ghrut. So SG2 may have better therapeutic efficacy and higher stability than SG1.
Diet-derived Flavonoids: Bridging Epidemiological Chemoprevention and Preclinical Anti-tumor Mechanisms in Clinical Oncology
Authors: Panchal Neil B. , Vaghela Vipul M.
Published: September 2024

Flavonoids are an abundantly consumed group of dietary polyphenols present in fruits, vegetables, teas, herbs and other plant-derived foods composed of a diphenylpropane (C6-C3-C6) ring structure, allowing subclassification into flavonols, flavones, flavan-3-ols, anthocyanins and isoflavones based on substitutions on the heterocyclic C ring. Multiple case-control studies and prospective cohort analyses reveal higher intake of certain flavonoid subgroups associated with reduced risk of various epithelial cancers like lung, breast, pancreatic, oral and liver. In vitro studies across diverse human cancer cell lines and in vivo, animal models demonstrate anticancer effects of select flavonoids either directly or in synergy with chemotherapy by targeting hallmark capabilities that enable tumours including resisting cell death, sustaining proliferation, inducing angiogenesis, activating invasion and metastasis. The well-explored anticancer mechanisms range from direct antioxidant activity, quenching free radicals and bolstering endogenous defenses; to anti-inflammatory signalling via NF-κB and cytokine modulation; epigenetic alterations by chromatin remodeling; to direct regulation of cell cycle controllers (CDKs, cyclins) and apoptotic mediators (caspases, Bcl-2. Early human trials mostly indicate the safe use of certain flavonoids and subclasses at tested doses however, progression to therapeutic benefit faces challenges like suboptimal systemic availability upon metabolism, unclear metabolite activities and study design limitations regarding delivery methods, combination treatments and clinical priority. In essence, dietary flavonoids exhibit pleiotropic pharmacological strengths against cancer progression warranting expanded translational research and human trials to develop formulations/delivery systems and validate targeted clinical integration, especially alongside chemotherapy regimens.
