Afganistan Uluslararası Medyasında Christchurch Terör Saldırıları: İslamofobi, Çerçeveleme ve Temsil
Authors: Nasiri Mohammad Naeim , Eken Metin
Published: October 2023

Aşırı sağcı ve beyaz üstünlüğünü savunan Brenton Harrison Tarrant tarafından 15 Mart 2019 tarihinde Yeni Zelanda’nın Christchurch kentinde Cuma namazı sırasında gerçekleştirilen terör eyleminin Afganistan uluslararası medyasında nasıl temsil edildiği; terör eyleminin kurbanları olarak Müslümanların ve olayın failinin söz konusu kuruluşların haberlerinde nasıl sunulduğu bu çalışmanın konusunu oluşturmaktadır. Müslümanlara yönelik olarak gerçekleştirilen ve faillerin Batılı olduğu terör eylemlerinin münferit eylemler olarak değerlendirilmesi ve failin de psikolojik sorunlarla çerçevelenmesi ilgili literatürün sıklıkla işaret ettiği bir durumdur. Bu verinin Afganistan’da yayın yapan uluslararası yayın kuruluşları açısından, Christchurch terör saldırıları özelinde geçerli olup olmadığı ya da ne ölçüde geçerli olduğu çalışmanın temel problemini teşkil etmektedir. Hedef kitlenin Müslüman olması ve terör saldırılarının yaygınlığı sebebiyle özellikle Afganistan’da bu türden bir olayın nasıl çerçevelendiğinin ele alınması önem arz etmektedir ve Yeni Zelanda terör olayının Afganistan’da yayın yapan uluslararası medya kuruluşlarında nasıl temsil edildiğine dair herhangi bir çalışma yapılmadığı görülmektedir. Bu önem ve eksiklik çerçevesinde araştırma, uluslararası yayın kuruluşlarının ülke özelindeki misyonlarını belirginleştirmek açısından dikkate değer sonuçlar ortaya koyma potansiyeline sahiptir. Araştırma kapsamında VOA Dari, DW Dari, Özgür Radyosu, BBC Farsça ve Euronews Farsça gibi Afganistan uluslararası medyasının 15.03.2019-27.08.2020 tarihleri arasında kendi internet sitelerinde olay ile ilgili yayınladığı yazılar, nitel araştırma yöntemi tekniklerinden doküman analiziyle ele alınmış elde edilen verilerin analiz edilmesinde içerik analizine başvurulmuştur. Analiz süreci, araştırma alt soruları bağlamındaki temalar doğrultusunda şekillendirilmiştir. Elde edilen veriler çerçevesinde söz konusu medya kuruluşlarının olayı direk olarak terör saldırısı şeklinde vermekten çeşitli tekniklerle ve mümkün olduğu kadar kaçındığı, eylemin failini doğrudan terörist olarak nitelendirmediği bulgulanmıştır. Ayrıca İslam ve Müslüman gibi kavramların yazılarda yeterince kullanılmadığı ve temsil edilmediği tespit edilmiştir. Bu durumda ilgili medya kuruluşlarının uluslararası medya emperyalizmini doğrular biçimde İslomofobik eğilimlere, yerel düzlemde de dahil olduğu ifade edilebilir.

ОРГАНІЗАЦІЯ ОБЛІКУ РОЗРАХУНКІВ З ПОКУПЦЯМИ ТА ЗАМОВНИКАМИ
Authors: Попович Оксана , Філімонова Світлана
Published: October 2023

У даній статті розкриваються сутність, мета та актуальні проблеми організації обліку розрахунків з покупцями та замовниками. Розглянуто процедури та етапи проведення розрахунків підприємства з покупцями та замовниками. Визначено економічну сутність дебіторської заборгованості підприємства, а також передумови її виникнення в сучасних умовах господарювання. Адже, розрахунки з контрагентами, зокрема з покупцями та замовниками, є однієї з найважливіших сторін фінансово-господарської діяльності підприємства. Дебіторська заборгованість покупців та замовників за товари (роботи, послуги) відволікає частину грошових коштів з оборотних засобів підприємства, тому значний її розмір завжди загрожує фінансовій безпеці підприємства, адже незалежно від того, коли буде погашена дебіторська заборгованість, підприємство має розраховуватись по власних боргах. Утворення дебіторської заборгованості пов’язано зі зростанням конкуренції серед виробників (продавців), які відвантажують товари або надають послуги клієнту фактично до надання йому товарного кредиту. Позитивні сторони дебіторської заборгованості пов’язані зі зменшенням обігових коштів і поліпшенням фінансових показників ефективності. Недоліки дебіторської заборгованості пов’язані зі зростанням кредитних ризиків.

The Involvement of The United States in the Russia-Ukraine war in The Perspective of Realism
Authors: Anjani Nurwulan Rizkiya , Paksi Arie Kusuma
Published: October 2023

This paper examines the involvement of the United States in the Russia-Ukraine war. One of the main topics of study in Cold War studies is how the United States interacted with and intervened in various domestic affairs of nations in different regions of the world between the 1950s and the 1970s.  States interact with one another in particular through international relations. Realists view international politics as fundamentally a contest between superpowers over dominance and security. During the cold war, Russia and Ukraine were united in a federated state, the Soviet Union. And in 2022, the conflict between Russia and U kraine is heating up again, and the United States will be involved here. However, this study focuses on the involvement of the United States in the Russo-Ukrainian war, which is analyzed with one of the main theories in international relations, realism. Realism theory focuses on the potential for conflict between state actors, particularly relevant to the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. This research employs a qualitative methodology with a literature review, in which the author gathers data pertinent to the subject under consideration. The result of this research is the involvement of the United States in the war between Russia and Ukraine is part of their tactics to maintain their hegemony as the only superpower in the post-cold war world.
Уточненная модель неизотермического вязкоупругопластического деформирования гибких армированных пластин
Authors:   ФГБУН Институт теоретической и прикладной механики им. С.А. Христиановича СО РАН, Новосибирск, Россия, Янковский А.П.
Published: October 2023

В рамках уточненной теории изгиба сформулирована связная задача неизотермического вязкоупругопластического динамического деформирования армированных пластин. Простейшим вариантом этой теории является традиционная неклассическая теория Амбарцумяна. Геометрическая нелинейность моделируется в приближении Кармана. Температура и тангенциальные перемещения точек гибких пластин в поперечном направлении аппроксимируются полиномами высоких порядков. Численное решение поставленной двумерной начально-краевой задачи получено с использованием явной схемы шагов по времени. Исследовано неизотермическое вязкоупругопластическое поведение стеклопластиковой пластины с ортогональной 2D-структурой армирования; конструкция динамически изгибается под действием избыточного давления, вызванного воздушной взрывной волной. Продемонстрировано, что для адекватного вычисления теплового отклика в такой конструкции температуру по ее толщине необходимо аппроксимировать полиномом 7-го порядка, а не полиномом 2-го порядка, как это традиционно принято делать для тонкостенных элементов конструкций. Показано, что для адекватного определения остаточной формы пластины после прекращения ее неупругих осцилляций и для адекватного расчета остаточного деформированного состояния ее компонентов композиции следует использовать уточненную теорию изгиба, а не теорию Амбарцумяна. При отсутствии внешних интенсивных источников тепла немеханического происхождения динамику стеклопластиковых пластин можно рассчитывать без учета теплового отклика в них. При наличии же предварительно наведенного и существенно неоднородного по толщине пластин температурного поля величина остаточного прогиба зависит от того, к какой лицевой поверхности конструкции прикладывается внешняя динамическая нагрузка.
Konsep Keadilan dan Pesan Moral dalam Film Miracle In Cell No.7
Authors: Lampi Yayu Astuti
Published: October 2023

Abstract: Film is one part of the mass media that displays moral messages and film is also one of the ways the media criticizes the way humans live in society. With a descriptive qualitative approach and literature study, this paper seeks to find the meaning of justice and other moral messages in the film miracle in Cell no.7. Which brings people to the point of passion for their respective lives, because in the reality of social life there are still many values that are contrary to the truth. Especially in the legal world, sometimes the law only favors those who are stronger and forgets those who are weak. This certainly happens because of legal inequality and the non-enactment of the value of justice which should be the right of all human beings. Therefore, this paper wants to offer the spirit of learning through film to reflect with social phenomena that occur in the reality of society and be more sensitive to the value of justice that should be the right of all people.

Keywords: Film, Justice and Moral MessagesAsliAbstrak

Abstrak : film adalah salah satu bagian dari media massa yang menampilkan pesan-pesan moral dan film juga merupakan salah satu cara media mengkritik cara manusia hidup bermasyarakat. Dengan pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif dan studi pustaka, tulisan ini hendak menemukan makna keadilan dan pesan moral lainnya dalam film miracle in Cell no.7. yang membawa manusia pada titik penghayatan hidup masing-masing, karena dalam kenyataan kehidupan bermasyarakat masih banyak ditemukan nilai-nilai yang bertentangan dengan kebenaran. Secara khusus dalam dunia hukum, terkadang hukum hanya perpihak kepada mereka yang lebih kuat dan melupakan mereka yang lemah. Hal ini tentunya terjadi karena ketimpangan hukum dan tidak di berlakukannya nilai keadilan yang seharusnya menjadi hak semua manusia. Oleh karena hal tersebut, tulisan ini hendak menawarkan semangat belajar melalui film untuk berefleksi dengan fenomena-fenomena sosial yang terjadi dalam realitas masyarakat dan lebih peka dengan nilai keadilan yang seharusnya menjadi hak semua orang.
Pakotteiden vaikutuksesta Venäjän talouteen
Authors: Simola Heli
Published: October 2023

Tässä artikkelissa esitetään alustavia arvioita Venäjälle vuonna 2022 asetettujen pakotteiden kokonaistaloudellisista vaikutuksista ja tarkastellaan niitä aiemman tutkimuskirjallisuuden valossa. Lisäksi arvioidaan tekijöitä, jotka ovat vahvistaneet ja heikentäneet nykyisten pakotteiden vaikutuksia Venäjän talouteen. Analyysin pohjalta Venäjään kohdistettujen pakotteiden taloudelliset vaikutukset eivät ole olleet pieniä aiemmassa kirjallisuudessaesitettyihin arvioihin verrattuna. Vaikutukset eivät kuitenkaan ole pakotteiden laajuudesta huolimatta olleet myöskään poikkeuksellisen suuria. Venäjään kohdistuvien pakotteiden taloudellisia vaikutuksia ovat vahvistaneet niiden laajuus sekä toimien että niitä noudattavien maiden osalta ja Venäjän tärkeiden talouskumppaneiden osallistuminen niihin. Vaikutuksia ovat  heikentäneet nousevien talouksien pidättäytyminen pakotteista ja Venäjän valtion tukitoimet. Pakotteiden vaikutukset ovat olleet voimakkaimpia niillä talouden osa-alueilla, joihin niitä on  erityisesti kohdistettu.

Published: October 2023

The construction and analysis of daily temperature data series in long enough a time period is important to understand decadal to multi-decadal variability and changing trends in extreme temperature events. This paper reports a new analysis of extreme temperature indices over the last 140 yr in Wuhan, China, with an emphasis on changes in extreme high temperature changes. The daily temperature data from 9 stations from 1881 to 1950 and 1 modern station from 1951 to 2020 were used for the analysis. Based on the data, and the commonly used extreme temperature indices, the variations and long-term trends of extreme high temperature events in Wuhan since 1881 were analyzed. The results show that there was no clear warming trend in maximum temperature, but a quite large inter-annual and inter-decadal fluctuation. In contrast, there was a very significant increase in minimum temperature, with a large upward trend overall. The extreme temperature indices exhibit a periodic variability, and frequent extreme heat events have been experienced over the last 140 yr in Wuhan. Most extreme temperature indices did not exhibit remarkable changes during the first half of the period analyzed. However, the majority of the extreme temperature indices showed significant upward trends over the latter half of the 140 yr period. The possible causes of the observed changes in the extreme high temperature events in the different time periods are also discussed.
Responsible governance for data-intensive health research networks
Authors:   , Muller Sam Hendrik Adriaan
Published: October 2023

Big Data hold great promise for scientific health research and healthcare. Yet data-intensive health research in which various types of data from different sources are collected, (re)used, shared and/or linked on a large scale also creates distinct problems. Data-intensive health research takes place in complex networks. In these networks, (semi-)public organisations like hospitals and private organisations like pharmaceutical companies collaborate, depending upon each other and sharing goals, interests, and motivations. Moreover, ethical and legal requirements and social demands need to be met to accomplish responsible data-intensive health research. This requires adequate coordination, that is, governance. By engaging in interdisciplinary, theoretical and empirical social sciences-bioethics research, this PhD thesis develops a learning approach for responsible governance of data-intensive health research networks. This research addresses three important challenges: (1) ethical and legal fragmentation, (2) connecting with stakeholders and society, and (3) untameable heterogeneity and complexity. First, the thesis analyses the role of accountability and impediments to health data sharing collaborations. Second, it considers the concept of social licence and the potential of dynamic interfacing for support and trust in data-intensive health research. Third, patient and public preferences for governance are studied and principled operational guidance is provided. This PhD thesis stipulates learning governance for responsible data-intensive health research, which employs situated social and structural circumstances. Learning governance relies on performance feedback and dialogue about experiences with implementation of provisional norms, goals and governance arrangements. Such governance is characterised by self-regulation, social sanctioning and self-organisation. This requires experimentalist design, strengthening of collective control and participatory governance arrangements.

The article analyses the peculiarities of the global pandemic COVID-19 impact and related quarantine restrictions imposed on the economic growth of Ukraine and other countries of the world. The purpose of the study is to determine the negative consequences of such an impact due to the global pandemic COVID-19, as well as to outline the effectiveness of implemented (planned) measures of governments to neutralize the effects of this impact on the economy. Particular attention is paid to: the study of changes in GDP dynamics, the volume of foreign trade, and the level of public debt in different countries of the world in three phases of the pandemic: I-phase (2019–2020), II-phase (2021-2022) and III-phase (second half of 2022, first half of 2023); determining the effectiveness of anti-crisis measures of governments during the global crisis of 2019–2022. The scientific paper notes that the negative factor influencing the quality to the economic growth of the country’s world (during the pandemic) is non-diversification of economies with emerging markets and their dependence on global foreign trade flows. It has been determined that the increase in social spending and the level of debt in developing countries is a threat to their financial security in the future, since the maximum level of public and guaranteed debt in relation to GDP in some countries exceeded the limit of 60% according to the Maastricht criteria.

Published: October 2023

The problem of investment is one of the urgent issues for our country. Ensuring investment in critical infrastructure objects in conditions of hostilities and against the backdrop of the destruction of this infrastructure is associated not so much with economic growth as with the current survival of the country , burdened by continuous military actions. The need for more dynamic development of investment processes aimed at attracting ESG investments in critical infrastructure has been emphasized. The aim of the article is to explore the prospects of ESG investment in critical infrastructure during the post-war recovery period of Ukraine. It has been established that the ESG concept is a modern trend in the investment space that needs to be considered and implemented in practice. The importance of implementing ESG criteria has significantly increased in recent decades and is expected to grow even faster in the near future. Most infrastructure funds view ESG as a driving force that enhances the value and stability of portfolio companies against the backdrop of constant global changes. To benefit from the opportunities provided by ESG investment, it is necessary to consider ESG criteria (environmental, social, and governance) at every stage of the investment life cycle. ESG is increasingly becoming a requirement for investment compliance. It has been established that ESG investment, as the implementation of the ESG concept, contributes to positive changes in society, preserves the environment, etc. However, in the case of the urgent need for rapid and effective post-war recovery of critical infrastructure in Ukraine, it will significantly complicate the process since compliance with ESG criteria, which could be ignored earlier, will have to be followed. The need to change the regulatory framework regarding the inclusion of ESG investment specifics and to transform approaches to investment in the domestic business community is mentioned because the international business community seeks to invest its capital in enterprises and territories that meet ESG criteria. For Ukraine, transformation aimed at meeting the requirements for ESG investment is both a challenge and a necessity for integration into global investment processes.

At present, contamination of natural water sources with antibiotics has become of great concern. Existing treatment facilities do not fully solve the problem of fresh water conservation, methods of purification and process control of purification from antibiotics, are either complex or do not work at all. The most promising direction of water purification from pollutants is biological methods, since aquatic plants, as natural cleaners, contribute to the decomposition of pollutants and their transformation into harmless or less harmful compounds. Eichornia (water hyacinth) recognized, as the leader of this type of cleaner in the world. This article presents the measurement results of antibiotic concentration changes in water obtained by optical methods in order to assess the effectiveness of the purification process. The selection of the measuring signal due to the pollutant carried out in a differential way. The choice of the spectral range corresponded to the maximum absorption capacity of the dissolved substance. The impurity concentration was determined according to the calibration curve obtained for the given substance. The results of the samples analysis showed a significant decrease, almost three times, in the concentration of the pollutant, depending on the cleaning time. The article also discusses the thermal approach to the problem of waste biomass disposal. The conducted experiments showed that the energy value of the biomass is not high and is less than 8 MJ/kg with a large amount of ash residue. The result obtained can be useful for obtaining a source of hydrogen and synthesis gas or choosing a process for utilizing spent biomass.

When carrying out emergency recovery work to eliminate the consequences of an emergency, it is necessary to promptly provide information on the state of transport infrastructure facilities, which is possible only when using aerospace survey data. The aim of the study is to increase the efficiency of transportation in the emergency zone using heterogeneous vehicles under the conditions of synchronization of its movement, based on the use of Earth remote sensing data. Data source analysis for traffic flow modeling was carried out. Land transportation typical network graph description is presented. The dependences of the intensity of traffic flows along the edges of the network graph on traffic conditions, infrastructure characteristics and loading and unloading operations, parameters of wheeled, tracked vehicles and railway cars are revealed. It is proposed to use the minimax criterion when calculating the maximum traffic flow intensity along the network graph path and the entire transport network capacity. Based on the analysis of the tasks of monitoring the state of transport infrastructure facilities, the possibility of using Earth remote sensing data to reveal damage and flooding in the emergency zone was assessed. Based on the simulation modeling results of the ground transportation organization in the area of emergency response based on the Earth remote sens-ing data, the applicability of the proposed approach to the traffic flows intensity calculating based on the Earth remote sensing data was confirmed.

The Dystonia Medical Research Foundation organized an expert virtual workshop in March 2023 to review the evidence on non-motor symptoms across the spectrum of dystonia, discuss existing assessment methods, need for their harmonisation and roadmap to achieve this, and evaluate potential treatment approaches. Albeit the most investigated non-motor domains, experts highlighted the need to identify the most accurate screening procedure for depression and anxiety, clarify their mechanistic origin and quantify their response to already available therapies. Future exploration of sleep disruption in dystonia should include determining the accuracy and feasibility of wearable devices, understanding the contribution of psychotropic medication to its occurrence, and defining the interaction between maladaptive plasticity and abnormal sleep patterns. Despite recent advances in the assessment of pain in dystonia, more research is needed to elucidate the relative importance of different mechanisms called into play to explain this impactful sensory feature and the most appropriate treatments. Amongst the different non-motor features investigated in dystonia, cognitive dysfunction and fatigue require an in-depth observation to evaluate their functional impact, their clinical profile and assessment methods and, in the case of cognition, whether impairment represents a prodrome of dementia. Finally, experts identified the development and field validation of a self-rated screening tool encompassing the full spectrum of non-motor symptoms as the most urgent step towards incorporating the management of these features into routine clinical practice.

Published: October 2023

Introduction

In Germany, as around the world, the use of digital media in speech and language therapy became part of the service during the COVID-19 pandemic. This resulted in a need for empirical studies on the use and acceptance of digital media technologies, to determine users' requirements and concerns regarding the newly mandated technologies, in order to support its expansion in education and training going forward. “Acceptance” has been previously identified as an important aspect behind successful technology adoption. Therefore, two online questionnaire studies were conducted to explore how technology use is accepted among speech and language therapists in Germany.

Methods

Study 1 involved a questionnaire about video therapy with 15 question groupings, examining technology acceptance and competence. From 841 initial respondents, 707 complete responses were included in the analysis. Study 2 involved a different questionnaire, examining technology acceptance and digital media in therapy. In total, 79 individuals participated in the second survey. Study 1 data were analyzed to identify unifying factors underlying respondent attitudes and was followed up with a logistical regression; Study 2 data were analyzed with multiple linear regression.

Results

In Study 1, external inhibiting and facilitating conditions were identified which had an impact on attitudes toward video therapy adoption and its intended future use. In Study 2, the modified model of the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) explained 58.8% of the variability in therapist's Behavioral Intention to Use digital media. Here, Performance Expectancy was a significant predictor.

Conclusions

Both studies investigated facilitating and inhibiting factors for the implementation of digital media including video therapy in future speech therapy services. Results demonstrated that the use is accepted in therapy. Therefore, optimal conditions—both institutional and individual—are needed to enable digital participation for therapists and patients. In future education and training, trainers should focus on the functional aspects of the technologies to be used, in order to positively influence Performance Expectancy in a targeted manner and thus increase the therapists' intention to use digital technology in therapy, which in turn promotes patients' digital participation.

Introduction

Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) has revolutionized the therapy landscape of malignancy melanoma. However, the clinical benefits from this regimen remain limited, especially in tumors lacking infiltrated T cells (known as “cold” tumors). Nanoparticle-mediated photothermal therapy (PTT) has demonstrated improved outcomes in the ablation of solid tumors by inducing immunogenic cell death (ICD) and reshaping the tumor immune microenvironment. Therefore, the combination of PTT and ICB is a promising regimen for patients with “cold” tumors.

Methods

A second near-infrared (NIR-II) light-activated gold nanocomposite AuNC@SiO2@HA with AuNC as a kernel, silica as shell, and hyaluronic acid (HA) polymer as a targeting molecule, was synthesized for PTT. The fabricated AuNC@SiO2@HA nanocomposites underwent various in vitro studies to characterize their physicochemical properties, light absorption spectra, photothermal conversion ability, cellular uptake ability, and bioactivities. The synergistic effect of AuNC@SiO2@HA-mediated PTT and anti-PD-1 immunotherapy was evaluated using a mouse model of immune “cold” melanoma. The tumor-infiltrating T cells were assessed by immunofluorescence staining and flow cytometry. Furthermore, the mechanism of AuNC@SiO2@HA-induced T-cell infiltration was investigated through immunochemistry staining of the ICD-related markers, including HSP70, CRT, and HMGB1. Finally, the safety of AuNC@SiO2@HA nanocomposites was evaluated in vivo.

Results

The AuNC@SiO2@HA nanocomposite with absorption covering 1064 nm was successfully synthesized. The nano-system can be effectively delivered into tumor cells, transform the optical energy into thermal energy upon laser irradiation, and induce tumor cell apoptosis in vitro. In an in vivo mouse melanoma model, AuNC@SiO2@HA nanocomposites significantly induced ICD and T-cell infiltration. The combination of AuNC@SiO2@HA and anti-PD-1 antibody synergistically inhibited tumor growth via stimulating robust T lymphocyte immune responses.

Discussion

The combination of AuNC@SiO2@HA-mediated PTT and anti-PD-1 immunotherapy proposed a neoteric strategy for oncotherapy, which efficiently convert the immune “cold” tumors into “hot” ones.
Key players in the regulation of iron homeostasis at the host-pathogen interface

Iron plays a crucial role in the biochemistry and development of nearly all living organisms. Iron starvation of pathogens during infection is a striking feature utilized by a host to quell infection. In mammals and some other animals, iron is essentially obtained from diet and recycled from erythrocytes. Free iron is cytotoxic and is readily available to invading pathogens. During infection, most pathogens utilize host iron for their survival. Therefore, to ensure limited free iron, the host’s natural system denies this metal in a process termed nutritional immunity. In this fierce battle for iron, hosts win over some pathogens, but others have evolved mechanisms to overdrive the host barriers. Production of siderophores, heme iron thievery, and direct binding of transferrin and lactoferrin to bacterial receptors are some of the pathogens’ successful strategies which are highlighted in this review. The intricate interplay between hosts and pathogens in iron alteration systems is crucial for understanding host defense mechanisms and pathogen virulence. This review aims to elucidate the current understanding of host and pathogen iron alteration systems and propose future research directions to enhance our knowledge in this field.

Published: October 2023

Cancer remains a significant global challenge, with an estimated 47% increase in cancer patients from 2020 to 2040. Increasing research has identified microorganism as a risk factor for cancer development. The oral cavity, second only to the colon, harbors more than 700 bacterial species and serves as a crucial microbial habitat. Although numerous epidemiological studies have reported associations between oral microorganisms and major systemic tumors, the relationship between oral microorganisms and cancers remains largely unclear. Current research primarily focuses on respiratory and digestive system tumors due to their anatomical proximity to the oral cavity. The relevant mechanism research mainly involves 47% dominant oral microbial population that can be cultured in vitro. However, further exploration is necessary to elucidate the mechanisms underlying the association between oral microbiota and tumors. This review systematically summarizes the reported correlations between oral microbiota and common cancers while also outlining potential mechanisms that may guide biological tumor treatment.

Peripheral nerve injury (PNI) is a structural event with harmful consequences worldwide. Due to the limited intrinsic regenerative capacity of the peripheral nerve in adults, neural restoration after PNI is difficult. Neurological remodeling has a crucial effect on the repair of the form and function during the regeneration of the peripheral nerve after the peripheral nerve is injured. Several studies have demonstrated that acupuncture is effective for PNI-induced neurologic deficits, and the potential mechanisms responsible for its effects involve the nervous system remodeling in the process of nerve repair. Moreover, acupuncture promotes neural regeneration and axon sprouting by activating related neurotrophins retrograde transport, such as nerve growth factor (NGF), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF), N-cadherin, and MicroRNAs. Peripheral nerve injury enhances the perceptual response of the central nervous system to pain, causing central sensitization and accelerating neuronal cell apoptosis. Together with this, the remodeling of synaptic transmission function would worsen pain discomfort. Neuroimaging studies have shown remodeling changes in both gray and white matter after peripheral nerve injury. Acupuncture not only reverses the poor remodeling of the nervous system but also stimulates the release of neurotrophic substances such as nerve growth factors in the nervous system to ameliorate pain and promote the regeneration and repair of nerve fibers. In conclusion, the neurological remodeling at the peripheral and central levels in the process of acupuncture treatment accelerates nerve regeneration and repair. These findings provide novel insights enabling the clinical application of acupuncture in the treatment of PNI.

Electroencephalographic studies of working memory have demonstrated cortical activity and oscillatory representations without clarifying how the stored information is retained in the brain. To address this gap, we measured scalp electroencephalography data, while participants performed a modified n-back working memory task. We calculated the current intensities from the estimated cortical currents by introducing a statistical map generated using Neurosynth as prior information. Group analysis of the cortical current level revealed that the current amplitudes and power spectra were significantly different between the modified n-back and delayed match-to-sample conditions. Additionally, we classified information on the working memory task conditions using the amplitudes and power spectra of the currents during the encoding and retention periods. Our results indicate that the representation of executive control over memory retention may be mediated through both persistent neural activity and oscillatory representations in the beta and gamma bands over multiple cortical regions that contribute to visual working memory functions.
Case Report: Serum methotrexate monitoring by immunoassay: confusion by by-product, confusion by antidote
Authors: Sharma Aditya , Benoit Philip , Lansigan Frederick , Nierenberg David
Published: October 2023

Methotrexate is a commonly used agent in the treatment of many malignancies and rheumatologic/inflammatory diseases. Working by inhibiting dihydrofolate reductase and thereby preventing eventual formation of tetrahydrofolate, methotrexate inhibits synthesis of purines and thymidylate, therefore disabling a malignant cell’s ability to replicate. While it is able to effectively do this, methotrexate also holds potential for significant toxicity. Therefore, serum methotrexate monitoring is of utmost importance when administering the drug, particularly when high doses are used. Although there are several different measurement systems, the immunoassay is a commonly used monitoring system that may be prone to interference when using agents with similar carbon backbone as methotrexate, including folinic acid (leucovorin) at high doses, as well as in the setting of glucarpidase use and consequent methotrexate breakdown. However, adjusting leucovorin dosing policy and being aware of the potential of the immunoassay to be “confused” by similar molecules have allowed for the efficient and effective use of the immunoassay while preventing prolonged hospital stays at our institution.
