Context: The first assisted reproduction center (PMA) to emerge in Gabon was a private health facility in 2001. Then in 2016 a second private clinic followed suit. Despite this, in vitro fertilization (IVF) remained inaccessible to the greatest number because of the expensive cost of this care offer. Evidenced by the fertility rate in Gabon, which remains one of the lowest in the world, 4% in 2017. In order to provide a solution to this problem, the current government authorities have thought of setting up a fertility service in vitro in a public hospital. Methodology: faced with the many difficulties observed, we proceeded as follows: Opinion of an expert in the equipment of an IVF center in November 2019; Architectural changes to the service; Staff training ; Order of missing equipment in October 2020; Establishment of collaboration and partnership; then organization of an IVF TEST session in November 2021 “free for patients”. Result: The service laboratory is now fully functional. Staff have acquired skills and continue to improve. Over one year we carried out 44 cycles, we obtained 16 clinical pregnancies. That is a percentage of 36%. We noted 1 miscarriage, 3 deliveries, and 12 ongoing pregnancies including a twin.

Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is a rare but highly aggressive lymphoma with increasing incidence in immunocompromised patients. MRI is the modality of choice in evaluating brain lesions. However, MRI is often challenging in the detection of early recurrence, assessing residual disease and response evaluation in PCNSL. 18F-FDG PET/CT has superior diagnostic performance compared with body CT in the evaluation of lymphoma. 18F-FDG PET-CT is helpful in evaluating evaluation of disease extent and differentiating primary CNS lymphoma from systemic lymphoma. Besides diagnostic and prognostic value in primary CNS lymphoma, it might also be helpful in response assessment. The role of FDG-PET in PCNSL is not fully defined. In this article we have reviewed the potential role of 18F-FDG PET/CT in initial diagnosis, baseline staging, restaging, evaluation of treatment response, prognostication, and survival analysis of PCNSL. Keywords: 18F-FDG PET/CT; CNS lymphoma; brain tumors.

Published: July 2023

Objective: Hop tests have well-known benefits when evaluating the rehabilitation process after sports injuries. However, utilization of hop tests to evaluate functional athletic performance of healthy athletes is currently uncertain and is not common in clinical practice. This study aimed to investigate the relationships between hop performance, their symmetries and functional test performance in American Football (AmF) players.

Materials and Methods: Twenty-six collegiate AmF players aged 20.9±2.5 years participated in this study. According to their playing positions, players categorized as Skill Players (SP), Big Skill Players (BSP) and Linemen (LM). Body Mass Index (BMI) and body fat ratio were measured. Then, subjects were performed hop tests and 10-yards Lower Extremity Functional Test (LEFT). Players were also analysed by dividing into low and high performers for LEFT, according to their LEFT test duration.

Results: Hop test performance of the SP was superior to LM for SLH, TH, and CH. The performance of BSP was inferior to SP for CH, and was superior to LM for SLH. In LEFT, the SP group was significantly faster than LM. For LEFT, TH, CH and 6H test results were significantly different between low and high performer players.

Conclusion: Hop tests may be utilized to evaluate the functional athletic performance of AmF players. Physical characteristics and playing positions should also be considered. Symmetry had no effect on LEFT.

Sports activities have continued for centuries and have become essential to daily life. Professional athletes participating in various sports competitions have many advantages, such as a promising career and high income. On the other hand, being a professional athlete also has some disadvantages. The most dramatic one is the risk of injury. Even though injuries are a part of sports, they have become a significant problem today due to the long recovery period which in turn overshadows sports competitions. In addition, the performance loss is an extra handicap for the athletes compared to the pre-injury levels. In this case, biomedical and biotechnological sciences are a glimmer of hope for shortening the treatment process and minimizing performance loss in returning to professional sports life. Combinations of scaffolds, biological factors, and cells are utilized based on mentioned approaches to treat such injuries, which are frequently seen nowadays and have become the nightmare of professional athletes. This review discusses various regenerative medicine and biotechnology-based therapeutic methods used in the treatment of spinal cord, cartilage, tendon, and musculoskeletal injuries in athletes. Additionally, wearable technologies, which are used to evaluate physiological signals, monitor health, prevent possible injuries, and create personalized training programs are mentioned, as well.

À vista disso, com base em estudos de cunho social, legislativo e jurisprudencial, examina-se qual o nexo entre as redes sociais, a pandemia e os crimes de discurso de ódio em tais ambientes, aferindo, para tanto, as medidas jurídico-legislativas aplicadas.
Quantum-aided feature selection model – A quantum machine learning approach
Authors: Bhagawati Rupam , Subramanian Thiruselvan
Published: July 2023

The accuracy of information retrieval systems is measured by the relevancy of retrieved results as per the user’s query. Relevant results are presented by performing various methods viz. indexing and crawling and the output of these processes is the retrieved results that have to pass through the ranking process which is the central goal of information retrieval systems. The ranking is carried out through the classification or clustering of processed results which can include redundant and noisy features. The accuracy of classification or clusters for the ranking process can be maximized by removing noisy and duplicate features through the feature selection method. Although feature selection is an expensive computational process, after many decades, quantum computation tools are in use for many algorithms to implement realistic problems, particularly in the standard of Quantum Annealing. This paper focuses to prospect the standard of quantum computing in order to increase the quality of information classes through the feature selection method. The persuasiveness of the quantum approach is comparable to the classical process that focused on the reliability of quantum methodology from different perspectives.

Regional variety preferences by teachers in USA
Authors: George Angela , Hoffman-González Anne
Published: July 2023

Spanish teachers in the USA are responsible for showing students what Spanish looks and sounds like (Ballman, Liskin-Gasparro & Mandell, 2001) and therefore act as role-models for their students in terms of their attitudes towards different varieties of Spanish. They must choose which features from which varieties to teach their students (Burns, 2018). Spanish teachers in the UK found Caribbean Spanish difficult to comprehend (Bárkányi & Fuerte Gutiérrez, 2019) and Spanish teachers in the USA preferred Peninsular Spanish over other varieties (Martínez-Franco, 2019), similar to Spanish teachers in Australia (Ortiz-Jiménez, 2019). The current study investigates (dis)preferences towards different regional varieties of Spanish by 63 primary, secondary and postsecondary teachers of Spanish in the USA. The findings indicate preferences split among four macro-varieties and a dispreference for Caribbean Spanish, highlighting the importance of comprehension and exposure to varieties regardless of prior explicit training on the topic.
The lexical constructional model meets syntax: guidelines of the formalized lexical-constructional model (FL_CxG )
Authors: Cortés-Rodríguez Francisco J. , Díaz-Galán Ana
Published: July 2023

This paper offers the basic guidelines of a formalized version of the Lexical Constructional Model (LCM; Ruiz de Mendoza & Mairal Usón, 2008, 2011; Ruiz de Mendoza & Galera, 2014), the Formalized Lexical-Constructional Grammar (FL_CxG), which will pave the way for future computational developments, such as parsers or lexical databases. The FL_CxG deploys (i) the typologically oriented syntactic apparatus of Role and Reference Grammar (Van Valin, 2005; Van Valin & LaPolla, 1997), (ii) the catalogue of constructional units arranged in a 4-layer typology, as proposed by the LCM, and (iii) some insights for semantic representations from the Generative Lexicon Theory (Pustejovsky, 1995; Pustejovsky & Batiukova, 2019), and Minimal English (Goddard, 2018). All the components of the FL_CxG (lexical units and construct(ion)s) are formally encoded as Typed Feature Structures in the format of Attribute Value Matrixes. These units are to be understood as constraints operating in the unification processes which underlie the generation/decoding of a given fragment of language.
Book review: Álvarez-Gil, F. J. (2022). Stance devices in tourism-related research articles: A corpus-based study
Authors: Domínguez-Morales Elena
Published: July 2023

This volume in the prestigious Linguistic Insights book series (Peter Lang) fills an acknowledged lacuna in studies considering the tourism research article from a gender perspective. Indeed, the attention paid to the tourism research article (RA) has been, if anything, fragmentary, since, as noted in Lin and Evans (2012), no attempt has been made to fully outline the generic structure of the RA in tourism. This is precisely one of the focuses of interest of this monograph, which aims to provide genre scholars and language professionals with an outline of the genre pattern of the RA and the lexicogrammatical choices associated with each generic section, together with a detailed description of the specific stance-taking devices. This is really the main aim of this book, as its title expressly calls for. Much of the information presented in this monograph, as attributed therein, belongs to a major research project conducted over the years on the language of tourism in English and other languages (cf. Álvarez- Gil, Payet, & Sánchez Hernández, 2020).
Mapping the mental lexicon of EFL learners
Authors: Agustín Llach Maria Pilar
Published: July 2023

The present paper explores the lexical profiles of monolingual and bilingual learners acquiring English as a second and third language, respectively. Those profiles allow to get insights into learners’ lexical access and lexical organization in the new language. To shed more light in this issue, a lexical fluency task was used to gather data. Results showed lack of significant differences in all the measures taken, but some very interesting differences appear when graph theory metrics are applied. Thus, educational bilinguals show higher levels of lexical organization and stronger connections among the nodes. This can be indicative of a mental lexicon which is better organized, more compact, and more stable. Additionally, educational bilinguals’ networks display highest clustering coefficient and shortest path length. In semantic terms, this means that educational bilinguals can navigate their lexicon more efficiently and in a way that better resembles native lexical search. These findings open up new avenues for insightful studies concerning lexicon organization in different types of learners, with bilingualism being a relevant modulating factor.
Contraste entre los errores ortográficos en lengua inglesa de hablantes bilingües de Gibraltar y los de un grupo monolingüe del Reino Unido
Authors: Mariscal Ríos Alicia María
Published: July 2023

En este artículo, presentamos los errores ortográficos en inglés de 40 hablantes bilingües de español-inglés en Gibraltar, que serán contrastados con los de 21 hablantes monolingües del Reino Unido. Gibraltar es un territorio británico en el extranjero caracterizado por el contacto lingüístico entre inglés y español. Aunque parte de sus hablantes adquiere el español de forma oral en el ámbito familiar como lengua de herencia (salvo las familias monolingües de inglés), este idioma es consideradouna lengua extranjera y se aprende como asignatura. Mediante el uso de cuestionarios de disponibilidad léxica para la recogidade los datos, pretendemos comprobar si el español influye en los errores en inglés de los informantes gibraltareños y si difieren de los detectados en el grupo monolingüe del Reino Unido. Pese a las diferencias asociadas al contexto de adquisición, los resultados muestran similitudes en ambos grupos, excepto en los errores interlingüísticos por interferencia del español.
Potential Involvement of Human Leukocyte Antigen-DR/DQ Polymorphisms with Schizophrenia Among Patients with Schizophrenia in Yemen
Authors: Al-Shamahy Hassan Abdulwahab , Abdo Hassan Sami Mohammed
Published: July 2023

Objectives: To evaluate the hypothesis that human leukocyte antigens (HLAs) confer susceptibility to schizophrenic disorders, by assessing their contribution to the risk of schizophrenia in a Yemeni population. Methods: The researchers approached patients who had been diagnosed with schizophrenia at Al-Amal Hospital for Psychiatric Diseases, Sana’a. Controls were drawn randomly from the general population. The HLA class II alleles of the participants were examined. The genotypes of the HLA-DQB1 and HLA-DRB1 alleles were determined by polymerase chain reaction using sequence-specific primers. Results: The subjects comprised 110 patients with schizophrenia, matched by an equal number of controls. The prevalence of HLA-DRB1*04 was significantly higher among patients than among controls (7.3% vs. 0.0%; p =0.003), as was HLA-DRB1*07 (62.7% vs. 17.3%, odds ratio (OR) = 8.1, 95% CI: 4.3–15.1; p < 0.001). HLA-DRBI*14 was significantly less prevalent among patients (0.9% vs. 11.8%, OR = 0.06, 95% CI: 0.01–0.50, χ2 = 10.9; p < 0.001). HLA-DQB1*07 was the most common allele discovered in schizophrenia patients and was found to have a much higher incidence in patients than the control group (22.7% vs. 4.5%, OR = 6.2, 95%CI: 2.3–16.8, χ2 = 15.4; p < 0.001). Conclusions: The HLA-DQB1 and HLA-DRB1 gene loci are linked to schizophrenia in the Yemeni population, according to the current study’s evidence.

Abstract. The seismogenic depth and seismic coupling are important inputs into seismic hazard estimates. Although the importance of seismic coupling is often overlooked, it significantly impacts seismic hazard results. We present an estimation of upper and lower seismogenic depth and hypocentral depth and seismic coupling in the transition zone between the Alps, Dinarides and Pannonian Basin, characterized by complex deformation pattern, highly variable crustal thickness, and moderate seismic hazard, supporting the development of the 2021 seismic hazard model of Slovenia. We estimated the lower seismogenic depth using seismological and geological data and compared them. The seismological estimate was based on two regional earthquake catalogues prepared for this study. In the area source model, estimates of lower seismogenic depth from seismological data are deeper or equal to the ones derived from geological data, except in one case. In the fault source model, we analyzed each fault individually and chose seismological lower depth estimates in 12 among 89 faults as more representative. The seismogenic thickness for each individual fault source was determined for seismic coupling determination. The seismic coupling was assessed by two approaches, i.e. we chose the most trusted value from the literature, and the value determined for each fault individually by using the approach based on the updated regional fault and earthquake datasets. The final estimate of seismic coupling ranges from 0.77 to 0.38. We compared the tectonic moment rate based on long-term slip rate using different values of seismic coupling with the seismic moment rate obtained from the earthquake catalogue. The analysis is done for the whole area, as well as for the individual area zones. The analysis of N-S components of estimated slip for the largest faults in the area of west Slovenia shows that the regional geologic and geodetic shortening rates are comparable. The total activity rate of three global seismic source models is compared, which gives up to a 10 % difference. Our results contribute to a better understanding of the seismic activity in the region and the approach for seismic coupling estimation can be applied in other similar regions.
Patria on stage: Cicero and the use of prosopopoeia
Authors: Tedeschi Antonella
Published: July 2023

Ancient rhetoricians knew how important the use of theatrical techniques was to increase the persuasive effect of rhetorical arguments. Therefore, training with theatrical techniques of voice modulation, breathing exercises and physical exercises was strongly recommended. This way the orator became similar to the histrio, because both shared the actio. Cicero himself puts these theoretical precepts into practice, in his intense oratorical activity, by impersonating the characters he defends or accuses, reproducing their words, revealing their character, as if he were performing on stage. Quintilian recognizes Cicero's mastery in playing parts even in the first speech against Catiline in the Senate, when Cicero plays the part of an abstract entity, Patria, the Fatherland (Cic.Catil.1,18 and 1,27-29): the theatrical fiction of prosopopoeia supports Cicero’s rhetorical and political strategy. He has more effective influence on the audience and persuades them to act harshly against Catiline
Collateral Effects of COVID-19 on Non-Communicable Diseases Among Minority Populations
Authors: O’Lawrence Henry , Martinez Linda , Nguyen Christine
Published: July 2023

Individuals with non-communicable diseases (NCDs) have a compromised immune system which heightens their risk of contracting a communicable disease, along with a heightened rate of severe complications and death. In light of the recent health crisis, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, modifications of the prevention and control strategies of NCDs could be a necessary step in order to curve the burden and severity that a communicable disease could inflict on an individual with NCDs. Therefore, the prevention and control strategies for NCDs should be modified, so such behaviors and risk factors can be evaded when in the face of a concurrent health crisis, in order to lower the rates of mortality and morbidity. This study investigates and determines, through qualitative analyses, if modification of the prevention and control strategies of NCDs, when in the face of concurrent health crisis, can help curve the burden and severity of future health crisis among minority populations.

Background: Biosynthetic resorbable mesh offers encouraging alternative for reinforcement in complex hernia repairs. This study evaluated outcomes of P4HB, absorbable polymer scaffold, in high-risk patients undergoing complex abdominal hernia repairs. Materials and Methods: This is a retrospective outcomes analysis of a prospectively kept database. Patient/wound characteristics, perioperative findings, short/mid-term outcomes of our cohort were analyzed. Endpoints included hernia recurrences, wound events and any complications. ACS NSQIP online risk calculator was used for each patient to obtain predicted outcomes as virtual matched control group. We also performed a full-thickness abdominal wall biopsy at 14-months post mesh implantation for histologic evaluation. Results: 28 patients with mean age 57 years and mean BMI 31 were analyzed. 21 patients (75%) had preexisting infections. 20 (71%) of patients had class I wounds per CDC classification at time of surgery. However, 19 of these 20 had wound or deep organ/space infections prior to surgery. Repair types included restoration of Linea Alba with retromuscular mesh placement in 23 patients (82%) with 22 of them requiring additional myofascial release. 5 patients (18%) had only mesh placement. Postoperatively, 11 patients (39%) had complications with zero hernia recurrence and zero mesh explantation at maximum of 42 months of follow up. Conclusion: P4HB can be successfully used in high-risk operative fields with no postoperative mesh explantation, despite serious complications such as infected hematomas. Histologic evaluation of the human tissue, 14-months post-implantation of P4HB confirms mesh presence with surrounding dense collagen scaffold formation and minimal inflammatory response.
Una Introducción A La Filosofía De Las Ciencias Y La Epistemología De La Economía A Través De Fritz Machlup
Authors: ZANOTTI GABRIEL J. , BORELLA AGUSTINA
Published: July 2023

El artículo de Fritz Machlup de 1955 «El problema de la verificación en economía» —texto clásico de la epistemología de la economía— se presenta no sólo como un modo de superar el debate acerca de la verificación empírica de los supuestos de la teoría económica, sino también como ocasión para introducir al lector en cuestiones fundamentales de filosofía de las ciencias e iniciarse en la epistemología de la economía. Se distinguen, por un lado, temas de filosofía de las ciencias y, por el otro, de filosofía de las ciencias sociales, y en particular de la economía. En cuanto a la filosofía de las ciencias se analiza: el método hipotético deductivo, la confirmación, y la noción de verdad y la realidad. En cuanto a la filosofía de las ciencias sociales y de la economía: se trata el debate de los aprioristas vs. los ultraempiristas en economía, el método hipotético deductivo en economía, la testeabilidad de los supuestos fundamentales, la fundamentación filosófica del supuesto de racionalidad y su testeabilidad y otras predicciones en economía.

Published: July 2023

Pendahuluan. Kecemasan merupakan kondisi yang melibatkan emosi dan sensasi fisik  ketika seseorang mengalami rasa gugup atau khawatir tentang sesuatu (Joko & Anta,2018). Kecemasan juga akan dialami peserta didik yang umumnya menginjak usia remaja yang masih labil dalam menghadapi situasi tak terduga atau hal baru Seperti ujian. Peserta didik kelas XII  SMK Kesehatan menghadapi tantangan dalam menyelesaikan akhir jenjang yaitu berupa Uji Sertifikasi Kompetensi (USK) sebagai persyaratan kelulusan peserta didik. Kecemasan ringan bisa menjadikan motivasi belajar namun jika kecemasan menjadi berlebihan akan memberikan dampak buruk bagi kondisi siswa. Studi pendahuluan dengan tehnik observasi yang dilakukan seminggu sebelum pelaksanaan Uji Sertifikasi Kompetensi (USK) tahun 2022 terlihat siswa mengalami gejala-gejala kecemasan. Kecemasan sebelum ujian merupakah hal wajar jika berada pada kategori rendah. Sebaliknya menjadi permasalahan jika mengalami kecemasan yang berlebihan.

Tujuan. Penelitian ini  untuk menunjukan tingkat kecemasan peserta didik dalam menghadapi uji sertifikasi kompetensi dengan 18 unit kompetensi sesuai SKKNI tahun 2017.

Metode. Jenis penelitian yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah deskriptif dengan tehnik sampel purposive sampel sehingga ditemukan 50 siswa dengan kuesioner skala HARS-A.

Hasil. Hasil penelitian ini diperoleh 50 Peserta didik sebagai responden dengan tingkat kecemasan sedang sebanyak 34 peserta didik (68% ) kecemasan ringan sebanyak 16 peserta didik (32 %).

Kesimpulan. Kecemasan menjadi bentuk antisipasi atau koping seseorang terhadap suatu hal atau perisitiwa. Tingkat kecemasan rendah merupakah hal wajar yang mampu memberikan dampak positif  terhadap peningkatan motivasi belajar
The Effect of Immersive Reality on Science Learning: A Meta-Analysis
Authors: Akbay Ebru , Deniş Çeliker Huriye
Published: July 2023

The study aims to investigate the effects of immersive reality applications on students' science achievement. For this purpose, 1,323 articles reporting the effects of immersive reality applications on students' science achievement were examined. The following databases were searched for articles: National Thesis Center, Google scholar, Scopus, ProQuest, SAGE Journals Online, Tylor & Francis, ScienceDirect, and Turkish academic database. 32 effect size values from 23 studies that fit the including criteria determined before the study were included in the meta-analysis. The meta-analysis revealed that the immersive reality applications have a statistically significant effect (Hedge's g = 0.89) on science achievement based on the random effect model. In addition, distribution of the effect sizes was heterogeneous (Q = 300.86, p = 0.000). Therefore, the effects of immersive reality application on achievement within different subgroups were also examined. The subgroups were defined by (i) grade levels in which the studies conducted, (ii) academic discipline in which the study took place, (iii) immersive reality application types, and (iv) location where the study was conducted (in or out of Turkey). Statistical significance between group effect was only observed between the groups defined by the place of study conducted (in vs out of Turkey).

Considering the cost of fuel, it is the need of the hour for the utilization of waste as a fuel source. Leaf litter waste and floral waste biomass present in the surrounding serve as potential materials in bio-briquettes formulation. Leaf litter wastes (Almond leaves, Ashoka leaves,
Cluster fig leaves), and floral wastes such as (Marigold, Tuberose, and Rose) was used for the study. The waste was microbially treated usingLactobacillus plantarum ATCC 8014 and Lactobacillus brevis ATCC 14869 for rapid decomposition of wastes. The briquettes were formulated using
wet briquetting, manual pressure, and cylindrical mould methods. Paper pulp along with wheat bran at a 35:5 ratio was used as an artificial binding agent. The preliminary analysis includes the contents of moisture, volatile matter, ash, fixed carbon, etc. Bio briquettes were ultimately analyzed
by FESEM, FT-IR, TGA, Density, and Calorific values. Comparisons were done using untreated lignocellulosic biomass-based briquettes and commercially available briquettes. Briquettes made from waste that has undergone microbial processing have a calorific value of 5968.20w kJ/Kg, a density
of 0.26 kg/cm3, 8.4% moisture content, 10% volatile matter content, 13.65% ash content, 67.95% fixed carbon content, a maximum burning time of 17 minutes, and a minimum ignition time of 3 minutes. While the briquettes made from untreated waste have calorific value of 4205.10 kJ/Kg, density
of 0.20 kg/cm3, 10.8% moisture content, 15% volatile matter content, 15.11% ash content, 59.05% fixed carbon content. This comparative study shows microbially treated bio briquettes can offer good agriculture waste management and new fuel opportunities.
