Authors: Mahmud Ahmed S. , Alwan Basim M. , Mezaal Mohammad A.
Published: December 2023

Background: Cerebral palsy is a disorder of movement and posture resulting from permanent, nonprogressive defect or lesion of the immature brain. Spastic cerebral palsy is a common clinical type which is difficult to diagnose clinically in the early years of life. This study was conducted to identify the changes in the H-reflex excitability in children with spastic cerebral palsy as compared to normal children.Methods: The excitability of the monosynaptic H-reflex pathway was tested in 36 children with spastic cerebral palsy during waking by calculation of the H-reflex wave amplitude with the ratio of maximal H /maximal M response amplitudes and compared with 32 normal children of the matching age. The Hoffman’s reflex was evoked in the soleus muscle after stimulation of the tibial nerve at the popliteal fossa.Results: The mean H-reflex wave amplitude (Ha) values are found to have statistical significant difference between both groups (P <0.05) while the mean maximum M-response amplitude (Ma) showed no statistical differences between both groups (P>0.05). However, the ratio of mean amplitude of the maximum H-wave to that of the maximum M-response (Ha/Ma) was significantly higher in the spastic children group than in controls (P <0.05).Conclusion: Our results showed that the Ha/Ma ratio does provide a helpful electrophysiological tool that can be correlated with the other clinical signs in the diagnosis of cerebral palsy by identifying motor neuron hyperexcitability.
Evaluating coronary artery disease in type 2 diabetes mellitus and Other Risk Factors by angiographic study
Authors: AL-rubae Salim M.
Published: December 2023

Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic and vascular illness associated with two to four times coronary artery disease (CAD) events and mortality which correlate well with fasting, postprandial plasma glucose and HbA1c level. Other factors such as aging, gender, smoking, dyslipidaemia and hypertension also play an important role in diabetic micro- and macro-vascular complications. Type 2 DM is reported now to be CAD equivalent.Patients and Methods: A cross sectional study of 118 patients including 90 males and 28 females being 63 diabetics and 55 non-diabetics over the period from March-November 2007 in Iraqi center for cardiac diseases who were underwent coronary angiographic study.Results: By angiographic study CAD was present in 92.1% of diabetic versus 89.1% in non diabetic patients. Single, double and triple vessels diseases were found in 15.9%, 22.2%, and42.9% of diabetics versus 16.4%, 21.8%, 34.5% in non diabetics respectively. DM and dyslipidaemias were proved to be independent risk factors for left circumflex artery (LCX) disease predilection (p value <0.05).Conclusion: Type 2 DM and female gender were reported to be independent risk factors for LCX and left main stem coronary arteries respectively while age, smoking, and dyslipidaemia were independent risk factors for coronary atherosclerotic . Hypertension and family history were proven to be dependent atherosclerotic risk factors and this may suggest that risk factors for the presence of CAD may differ from those affecting angiographic extent and severity. CAD was more extensive and severe in post menopausal women in this study.

Published: December 2023

Background:

Alzheimer’s disease pathology and vascular burden are highly prevalent and often co-occur in elderly. It remains unclear how both relate to cognitive decline.

Objective:

To investigate whether amyloid abnormality and vascular burden synergistically contribute to cognitive decline in a memory clinic population.

Methods:

We included 227 patients from Maastricht and Aachen memory clinics. Amyloid abnormality (A+) was defined by CSF Aβ42 using data-driven cut-offs. Vascular burden (V+) was defined as having moderate to severe white matter hyperintensities, or any microbleeds, macrohemorrhage or infarcts on MRI. Longitudinal change in global cognition, memory, processing speed, executive functioning, and verbal fluency was analysed across the A-V-, A-V+, A+V-, A+V+ groups by linear mixed models. Additionally, individual MRI measures, vascular risk and vascular disease were used as V definitions.

Results:

At baseline, the A+V+ group scored worse on global cognition and verbal fluency compared to all other groups, and showed worse memory compared to A-V+ and A-V- groups. Over time (mean 2.7+ – 1.5 years), A+V+ and A+V- groups showed faster global cognition decline than A-V+ and A-V- groups. Only the A+V- group showed decline on memory and verbal fluency. The A-V+ group did not differ from the A-V- group. Individual MRI vascular measures only indicated an independent association of microbleeds with executive functioning decline. Findings were similar using other V definitions.

Conclusions:

Our study demonstrates that amyloid abnormality predicts cognitive decline independent from vascular burden in a memory clinic population. Vascular burden shows a minor contribution to cognitive decline in these patients. This has important prognostic implications.
Does information literacy match well with extraversion? Empirical evidence from China
Authors: Song Jinxiu , Hu Shangui , Ji Fengle , Hu Feifei , Huang Tao
Published: December 2023

BACKGROUND: Information literacy always matters in the digital era. Upsurging research has been conducted about how information literacy influences their learning and capabilities development. However, previous literature has reached inconclusive and even conflicting results. OBJECTIVE: The present study investigates the underlying mechanism whereby the information literacy of using social media influences students’ cross-cultural social adjustment and their creativity. Further, the research explores the moderating role of personality of extraversion on students’ cross-cultural social adjustment. METHODS: A quantitative research methodology was adopted to survey international students studying at 43 Chinese public universities. Data collected from 2058 samples from 135 countries was used to test the hypothesized statements. RESULTS: Information literacy of using social media is confirmed to positively influence students’ cross-cultural social adjustment and creativity. Contrary to the hypothesized statement, personality of extraversion negatively moderates the relationships between two dimensions of information literacy of using social media and students’ cross-cultural social adjustment. CONCLUSIONS: International students rely more heavily on IL than domestic students, which should arouse more scholarly attention since no conclusive findings have been reached. How, by whom and where to use such an important skill could generate positive effects on human development deserves continuous efforts in the future.
An overview of the 2023 NISO Plus Conference: Global conversations/global connections
Authors: Lawlor Bonnie
Published: December 2023

This paper offers an overview of some of the highlights of the 2023 NISO Plus Annual Conference that was held virtually from February 14–February 16, 2023. This was the fourth such conference and the third to be held in a completely virtual format due to the global impact of COVID-19. These conferences have resulted from the merger of NISO and the National Federation of Abstracting and Information Services (NFAIS) in June 2019, replacing the NFAIS Annual Conferences and offering a new, more interactive format. As with prior years, there was no general topical theme (although the importance of metadata was a common thread throughout), but there were topics of interest for everyone working in the information ecosystem - from the practical subjects of standards, archiving, digital preservation, Open Science, and Open Access. With speakers and attendees from around the world and across multiple time zones and continents, it truly was a global conversation!

Published: December 2023

Background: Cardiac ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury has been shown to impose deleterious effects not only on the heart but also on the brain. Our previous study demonstrated that pretreatment with a mitochondrial fusion promoter (M1) provided central neuroprotective effects following cardiac I/R injury. Objective: To investigate the effects of M1 given during the ischemic phase and M1 given at the beginning of reperfusion on brain pathologies following cardiac I/R. Methods: Male Wistar rats were randomly divided into either a sham operation (n = 6) or cardiac I/R injury (n = 18) group. Rats with cardiac I/R injury were then randomly divided into 3 subgroups: 1) Control, 2) M1 treatment during cardiac ischemia (2 mg/kg, intravenous (i.v.)), and 3) M1 treatment at the beginning of reperfusion (2 mg/kg, i.v.). After euthanasia, the brain of each rat was removed for further analysis. Results: Cardiac I/R injury caused brain mitochondrial dynamic imbalance, brain mitochondrial dysfunction, brain apoptosis, microglial dysmorphology, brain inflammation, tau hyperphosphorylation, and synaptic dysplasticity. M1 treatment at both time points effectively improved these parameters. M1 given during the ischemic phase had greater efficacy with regard to preventing brain mitochondrial dysfunction and suppressing brain inflammation, when compared to M1 given at the beginning of reperfusion. Conclusions: Our findings suggest that treatment with this mitochondrial fusion promoter prevents mitochondrial dynamic imbalance in the brain of rats with cardiac I/R injury, thereby attenuating brain pathologies. Interestingly, giving the mitochondrial fusion promoter during the ischemic phase exerted greater neuroprotection than if given at the beginning of reperfusion.

Authors: Wu Tong , Wang Yuanyuan , Li Xiaoguang , Tao Yu , Ye Chaofeng
Published: December 2023

The reliability of thimble tubes plays a critical role for maintaining the safety of a nuclear power plant. The defect depth needs to be quantified and predicted to support the operational decision-making. This paper presents a method to quantify the defects on thimble tube wall based on the analyzation of eddy current testing (ECT) data. Then, a method using artificial neural network (ANN) to predict the detect depth is studied. The tubes are divided into 2 shapes and four regions according to their positions and the data of each region and each shape is expanded by mean interpolation. A prediction model based on ANN is constructed for each shape in each region. The experimental results show that the model can predict the signal of the next year according to the signal of the previous three years with mean absolute percentage error less than 16%.

Published: December 2023

As an important part of malware detection and classification, sequence-based analysis can be integrated into dynamic detection system for real-time detection. This work presents a novel learning method for malware detection models that leverages advances in graph embedding for fusing the n-gram data into a one-hot feature space with different transmission directions. By capturing the information flow, our method finds a better feature representation for detection tasks with rely solely on sequence information. To enhance the stability of feature representation, this work adopts a multi-task learning strategy which achieves better performance in independent testing. We evaluate our method on two different realworld datasets and compare it against four superior malware detection models. During malware detection using our method, we conducted in-depth discussions on feature length, graph embedding direction, model depth, and different multi-task learning strategies. Experimental and discussion results show that our method significantly outperforms alternative approaches across evaluation settings.
A goal-aligned coordinate system for invasion games
Authors: Brandes Ulrik
Published: December 2023

Spatial locations of players and game devices are a fundamental data type in team-sports analytics. They are typically specified in Cartesian coordinates, but with varying conventions for the origin, orientation, and scaling. In invasion games such as football, basketball, or hockey, however, many markings are of fixed dimension even when the field of play is not, so that the game-specific meaning of locations does not scale uniformly. We propose an alternative coordinate system that accommodates variable field sizes by using the goals instead of a corner or the center of the field of play as frames of reference.

Authors: Lokwani P. , Gupta N. , Choudhary S.K. , Singh A.K.
Published: December 2023

BACKGROUND:

With technological advancement, Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICU) have become noisier than ever. Studies have shown the detrimental effects of increasing noise in NICU on growing pre-term and sick neonates. The present study aimed to survey the amount of noise in one of the NICU blocks of a government tertiary care centre and explore ways to control it when dealing with these sick babies.

METHODS:

A detailed noise survey was carried out, for February 2023, in one of the two blocks of NICU in a government tertiary-care centre. The noise measurements were performed using two “Sound Ear 3” noise meters. The analyses were done in Leq (equivalent continuous sound levels) A-weighted decibels (dBA).

RESULTS:

The extracted data analysis revealed that the NICU block was exposed to a mean Leq of 67.78 dBA noise with a maximum of 89.0 dBA. There was a significant difference between the values noted in devices at different locations and across different periods. There were certain instances (57 and 42 for two devices) when there were sudden spikes in the noise levels beyond 80 dBA. It was also seen that noise was more than 65 dBA most of the time (72% and 66% for the two devices).

CONCLUSION:

The noise survey carried out over one month revealed a considerable amount of noise in the NICU of a government tertiary-care centre. The study also explored ways such as environmental modification, human behavior modification, awareness programs, and neonatal-centered modifications to reduce the noise and lower its detrimental effects on the growth of neonates.

Published: December 2023

BACKGROUND: Persistent postural-perceptual dizziness (PPPD) is a functional vestibular disorder that causes chronic dizziness and limits daily activities. Although pharmacology, vestibular rehabilitation, and cognitive behavioral therapy have been proposed to have some efficacy, they have certain limitations. Some patients with PPPD report that public square dancing can effectively relieve the symptoms of dizziness and instability, and their mood improves. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effects of combining public square dancing with serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs/SNRIs) on the subjective sensations of dizziness, balance enhancement, anxiety, and depressive symptom regulation in middle-aged and older women with PPPD. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this trial, 124 patients diagnosed with PPPD were enrolled. Among them, 64 patients were randomly assigned to the experimental group (EG), where they received square dance training combined with serotonin reuptake inhibitors. The remaining 60 cases were randomly assigned to the control group (CG), where they received only serotonin reuptake inhibitors and did not participate in organized sports activities, allowing them freedom in their daily lives. Data from the Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI), Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), Active-specific Balance Confidence Scale (ABC), and Vestibular Disorder Activities of Daily Living Scale (VADL) were collected and compared at the beginning, 3 months, and 6 months of the trial to evaluate the effect of public square dancing on middle-aged and older women with PPPD. RESULTS: There were no significant differences between the EG and CG before the trial. Compared with baseline measures, DHI, HADS, ABC, and VADL scores improved as the experiment progressed, and the improvements were more pronounced in the EG. CONCLUSION: Public square dancing combined with serotonin reuptake inhibitors has a positive impact on the subjective sensations of dizziness, balance enhancement, anxiety, and depressive symptom regulation in middle-aged and older women with PPPD.

Published: December 2023

The article is devoted to the study of the peculiarities of changes in the language behavior of Ukrainians under the influence of the full-scale invasion of the Russian Federation, which began on February 24, 2022. For the study, a voluntary online survey was conducted (1,520 respondents from all regions of Ukraine aged from 13 to 66+ years). The questions of the survey covered the subjective definition of language behavior before and after the full-scale invasion, the peculiarities of code-switching (Ukrainian and Russian), situational use of Russian language before and after the invasion (with parents, spouse, own children, friends, at work, in public space, with strangers, in social media) and consumption of Russian-language content before and after the invasion (Russian television, literature, music, films and series, blogs, as well as Ukrainian Russian-language shows, films, series, music and blogs). Some questions were devoted to desired language behavior in the future, the reaction of the environment, rollbacks to the language behavior practiced before the invasion, and difficulties in changing language behavior. Respondents also indicated the reasons, which caused the change in language behavior, described difficulties and shared additional observations. The article analyzes the results of the survey; how various factors influence on the change of language behavior (gender, age, region, education). Additionally, the experience of being in the war zone and resettlement were analyzed. In addition to the usual statistical calculations of the survey results, the econometric probit-regression model was also used in order to determine which factors strengthen and weaken the probability of a change in language behavior to a more proUkrainian one. The study showed that the pro-Ukrainian vector dominates in all groups that took part in the survey

Since the pathogenesis/immunopathogenesis of vasculopathy plasma leakage in DHF/ DSS was not clearly understood, this study was conducted. Considering the equilibrium between pro and anti inflammatory cytokine in homeostatic process in inflammation, this study was aimed to; first, detect the increase of secretion of IL-10 of immune responses of Mice Balb/c that were challenged with dengue virus serotype Den-1 & Den-3. Second, compare the secretion of IL-10 of immune responses of Mice Balb/c that were challenged with dengue viruses in primary infection, secondary monospecific infection and secondary heterologous infection. This study was experimental laboratory, with randomised pretest-posttest with spread control group design. Balb/C mice were used as animal laboratory models. The dengue viruses Den-1 & Den-3 that used in this study were isolated from dengue suspected patients and the viruses were innoculated and bred in BHK 21 clone 13 cell line, before they were injected to the models. Serum samples were collected from blood by centrifuging the blood for 10 minutes at 1000 rpm. The data of this experiment were obtained by applying the serum samples in Murine IL-10 Elisa Kit product of Diaclone Research France. In primary infection, significant increase of IL-10 mean titer in experimental group challenged with dengue viruses Den-1 was obtained (p=0.03) compared with the control group. Conversely the experimental group challenged with dengue viruses Den-3 showed no significant increase of mean titer (p=0.127). In the secondary infection, group treated with dengue Viruses Den-1 showed decrease of mean titer of IL-10 (p=0.034 & p=0.003). Meanwhile, group treated with dengue Viruses Den-3 showed no significant different compared to primary infection group (p=0.571&p=0.359). The results of the study, support both virulence theory and the secondary heterologous dengue infection theory.

Published: December 2023

The corrosion and erosion-corrosion behaviors in the weld heat-affected zone (HAZ) of Hadfield steels with varying Cr contents (1, 2, and 3 wt%) were examined. Various experimental methods, including electrochemical polarization, impedance, and weight loss measurements, were utilized. Two types of isothermal heat treatments were conducted in a box furnace to simulate the intercritical HAZ, known to be the most vulnerable region in terms of mechanical properties and environmental stabilities, and large-scale samples for the erosion-corrosion experiment were fabricated. The results showed that increasing the Cr content improved the resistance to corrosion and erosion-corrosion, but there was an inflection point where adding more Cr had the opposite effect. Up to 2 wt%, a higher resistance was exhibited owing to the formation of a thin and protective oxide scale enriched with Cr that adhered to the steel surface. On the other hand, adding 3 wt% of Cr resulted in decreased resistance. This was due to the formation of coarse M7C3 (M: Cr) precipitated along the grain boundary, which caused the development of a thick and unstable oxide scale that detached locally. Based on these findings, it is essential to optimize the Cr content to ensure a high resistance to corrosion and erosion-corrosion in the HAZ of Hadfield steel.
Moby-Dick, American Studies, and the Aesthetic Education of Man (Fall 2018)
Authors: Crawford Ryan
Published: December 2023

Moby-Dick has long served as an index of contemporary events and changing paradigms. Yet despite its long and varied history of interpretation, an analysis of the novel’s reception history demonstrates a striking unanimity of purpose. In nearly every instance, Ahab’s excesses and inhumanities are identified and prohibited in the name of ensuring that the novel can aid in the work of furthering the aesthetic education of man. In the process, the artwork’s integrity, achievement and essential irreducibility are subordinated to the demand that artworks provide essential moral instruction. The present essay reconstructs this common task through a close reading of the novel’s reception history, tracking its development from the time of Melville’s contemporaries to more recent debates between Donald E. Pease and William V. Spanos. Through Theodor W. Adorno’s work on aesthetics and society, this critical reinterpretation of Moby-Dick tries to better understand the “wicked book” its author first recognized, and for whose infernal birth he felt, in his own words, “as spotless as the lamb.”
