Published: May 2024

Background. Pediatric dentistry utilizes various restorative materials wherein the durability and longevity of these restorations hinge on the maintenance of an intact marginal seal to prevent microleakage and its associated complications. Consequently, this study aims to assess the microleakage of self-cure, dual-cure, and light-cure glass ionomer-based cements utilizing a stereo microscope.
Materials and Methods: Sixty therapeutically extracted deciduous molars were taken for the study. The restorative materials used for the studies were self-cure Glass Ionomer cement (Chemfil Rock and GC Fuji IX GP Fast GIC), dual cure Glass Ionomer cement (EquiaForte and Ionolux GIC), and light cure Glass Ionomer cement (GC Fuji II and Ketac N 100 GIC). All samples were stored in commercially available artificial saliva for 20 days to simulate the oral environment. The samples were immersed in Rhodamine B dye for 24 hours, and microleakage was evaluated using a Stereo microscope. Data were tabulated and statistical analysis was done. p < 0.05 is considered significant
Results: In the individual assessment of glass ionomer-based cement, Ketac N100 GIC exhibited the lowest microleakage, whereas Ionolux displayed higher levels of microleakage.
Conclusion: In terms of the curing method, light-cure glass ionomer cement demonstrated the least microleakage compared to both dual-cure and self-cure glass ionomer cement.
Der Kalām-basierte Neu-Erschaffungsansatz von Basil Altaie im Vergleich zu christlich geprägten Quantum-Divine-Action-Modellen
Authors: Turan Hakan
Published: May 2024

Der weithin akzeptierte Indeterminismus in den Mikroprozessen der Quantentheorie wurde oft als mögliche Schnittstelle zwischen der von Naturgesetzen bestimmten Erfahrungswelt und einem aktiv in der Welt wirkenden Schöpfergott diskutiert. Die Quantum-Divine-Action-Modelle, die vor allem von christlichen Naturwissenschaftlern und Religionsphilosophen entwickelt wurden, beruhen auf dieser Idee. In diesem Artikel wird die islamisch geprägte Naturphilosophie des muslimischen Physikers Basil Altaie untersucht, die ebenfalls den Quantum-Divine-Action-Modellen zugeordnet werden kann. Altaie stützt sich dabei auf die atomistische Metaphysik der islamischen Kalām-Theologen und präsentiert eine neue Interpretation dieser Metaphysik im Licht der modernen Quantentheorie. Das Ergebnis ist eine Synthese aus Kalām-Theologie und Philosophie der Quantentheorie, die in diesem Artikel unter verschiedenen Gesichtspunkten untersucht wird.

Neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome (nTOS), characterized by brachial plexus compression within the thoracic outlet, poses diagnostic challenges due to its variable symptoms and lack of standardized criteria. Ultrasound has emerged as a valuable diagnostic tool, offering dynamic imaging, high-resolution visualization of soft tissues, and differentiation between neurogenic and vascular forms. We reviewed the literature regarding ultrasound's role in nTOS diagnosis. Ultrasound's dynamic assessment aids in understanding nerve and vessel compression during arm movements, providing insights beyond static imaging. High-resolution imaging detects structural anomalies contributing to nTOS and reveals direct and indirect signs, such as brachial plexus or vessel compression. Varied findings exist regarding ultrasound sensitivity and specificity. Despite potential benefits, controversy remains, highlighting the need for further research to establish standardized protocols, refine techniques, and explore integrated diagnostic approaches for nTOS.

Introduction
Viral meningitis, often caused by enteroviruses in children, is prevalent globally but is difficult to distinguish from bacterial forms. Molecular testing like PCR is vital; however. This study investigates the characteristics of viral meningitis in pediatric patients during an outbreak in   Sulaymaniyah Governorate, Iraq.
Methods
This is a multicentered prospective study that included children with a confirmed diagnosis of viral meningitis who have visited pediatric clinics throughout Sulaimani, Halabja, Kalar, and Ranya cities during the period from May 2023 to June 2023.
Results
In total, 116 cases were included, of whom 75 (64.7%) were male and had a mean age of 6.5 ± 3.2. Most were between the ages of 4-6 (38, 32.8%) and 7-12 years (55, 47.4%). Only 53.4% had contact with another patient. Common symptoms included fever (63.8%) and headache (62.1%). Lymphocyte predominance was observed in 46.6% of CSF samples. Upon molecular diagnosis, the inflammation in all of the cases was due to enterovirus infection. Most of the patients (75%) received empirical antibiotics. The average hospital stay was 10 days. While 95.7% of patients had no complications during recovery, a few experienced issues like weakness and malaise. All had good clinical outcomes.
Conclusion
The viral meningitis outbreak in Sulaymaniyah Governorate is caused by enterovirus, with epidemiological, clinical, and laboratory findings similar to that of the literature. The condition has resulted in a high prescription rate of empirical antibiotics due to late diagnosis.

Introduction
Post-COVID-19 Pulmonary Fibrosis (PC-19-PF) is among the complications following COVID-19. It is the complication that is associated with the most amount of long-term impact on the respiratory system. Different physicians approach management in different ways; therefore, we conduct a study to neatly summarize all the different management and their possible outcomes.
Methods
The databases that were searched included CINAHL, PubMed/MEDLINE, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and EMBASE to identify English language studies published up to October 5th, 2023.
Results
Initially, the systematic search conducted brought 150 papers. Out of the 150, 13 of them were included in this study. A total of 662 patients were included in the study, all with different managements for COVID-19-induced pulmonary fibrosis. The mean age was 61.8 years. Many comorbidities were observed in patients with COVID-19-induced pulmonary fibrosis. Different treatment regimens were picked based on the different conditions of the patients but as far as antifibrotics go, Pirfenidone and Nintedanib were the most commonly used ones.
Conclusion
Both antifibrotics and steroids seemed to yield justifiable outcomes when used separately as well as when used in combination.

Introduction
Cancer is a disease where transformed cells undergo uncontrolled division and survival. The incidence of cancer and hence its burden is on the rise. This study aims to evaluate the scientific studies published on cancer in the year 2023.
Methods
A cross-sectional study included the cancer papers that were published in the year 2023. After extracting the data from the Google Scholar engine, they were all gathered and recorded in a Microsoft Excel 2010 sheet. All of the data were rigorously evaluated, calculated, and then presented as frequencies and percentages.
Results
A total of 181,189 studies published in 2023 on cancers and their different types were seen as eligible to be included in this study. Amongst them, studies on breast cancers with 31,000 studies were the most common whereas subglottic cancers with only 7 studies were the least common in that year.
Conclusion
The gap between the incidence rate of each type of cancer and the number of studies published on each type makes it harder to thoroughly grasp the nature of the disease to its utmost extent.

Introduction
Rectal bleeding is a prevalent clinical symptom associated with various anorectal pathology. Colonoscopy is a valuable diagnostic and therapeutic tool for a wide range of colorectal diseases. The objective of this study was to identify potential alternative diagnoses for hematochezia observed during colonoscopy, which initially appeared to be caused by hemorrhoids.
Methods
A retrospective study was conducted on a total of 80 consecutive patients who had been clinically diagnosed with rectal bleeding. The patients underwent a digital rectal examination, and then they were prepared for a total colonoscopy. Biopsies were taken from patients who had abnormal findings and sent for histopathological examination.
Results
A total ileo-colonoscopy was performed on 80 patients presenting with rectal bleeding. The male-to-female ratio was 1.05:1, with a mean age of 45.40±15.54 years old. About 56.3% of the patients had only hemorrhoids, while other findings were observed in 43.7% of the cases. The other findings were anal fissures, proctitis, colitis, solitary rectal ulcer, colorectal carcinoma, diverticula, or polyps.
Conclusion
Rectal bleeding can stem from various causes, among them hemorrhoids. Thus, colonoscopy stands as an essential diagnostic tool for accurately identifying the causes of the condition.

Authors: Sladojević Igor , Bućma Tatjana , Glogovac Kosanović Milkica , Ćurčić Branislava
Published: May 2024

Introduction. Median and ulnar nerves are mixed upper limb nerves. The aim of the research was to determine refer ence values, and influence of aging and limb dominance on electrophysiological parameters of these nerves.

Methods. In 46 women and 14 men, aged 24 to 81, we de termined the conduction velocity (CV), the amplitude, and the distal motor latency (DML) on both nerves and their change with aging and limb dominance. In the group of women the influence of the postmenopausal period on the electrophysiological parameters of the median nerve was observed.

Results. With aging, there was a significant decrease in the CV of sensitive fibers, amplitude of the motor part and DML of both nerves. In the median nerve, there was the decrease in the CV of motor fibers. On the dominant limb, there was the significant decrease in the CV of sensitive fibers of medi an nerve and amplitude of the sensitive part of ulnar nerve. On the dominant limb, aging caused the decrease of CV and the amplitude of the dorsal branch of the ulnar nerve, and CV of the motor fibers and DML of the median nerve. In postmenopausal women, the amplitude of the motor part of the median nerve decreased on the non-dominant limb.

Conclusion. There is the influence of age and dominance on the electrophysiological parameters of the investigated nerves. The postmenopausal period in women, apart from the influence of aging, does not represent a specific influ encing factor on the investigated parameters.

Authors: Fatima Muqaddas , Zafar Hafsah , Shafiq Qasim
Published: May 2024

This study looks into the problems related to the objectification of women in African and Pakistani fiction. The Devil on the Cross by Ngugi Wa Thiong'o and Our Lady of Alice Bhatti by Muhammad Hanif are the subjects of this inquiry. The objectification theory by Nussbaum and Langton is utilised in this study. Sexual objectification and self-objectification can be distinguished from one another in a major and distinct way. Concerning sexual abuse, women have issues in patriarchal societies. They suffer from other types of societal harassment. They adopt this attitude from the culture and behave in a way that is congruent with what is expected of them by patriarchal society. This study investigates both authors' socialist concerns to discover the idea of objectification. It demonstrates the position of women in both African and Pakistani societies. Additionally, it demonstrates how harsh patriarchal society is. By examining the difficulties in this area, the current study exposes all the factors that contribute to the marginalisation and discrimination of women. The aim of the study is to investigate how objectified women are treated in these novels. The study goals are to examine how Christians in general and lower-class women in particular, Alice Bhatti and Warinnga, are devalued in society. Qualitative research is employed to examine these problems. The study comes to the conclusion that Alice Bhatti and Warinnga are socially marginalised due to their gender, caste, and religion. They are both portrayed as weak, pathetic creatures with no sense of identity.

GST Rate Structure and Exemptions in India: Comments from a Global Perspective
Authors: Brederode R.F.W. van
Published: May 2024

Many countries, including India, apply a multi-rate VAT system and exemptions. The author in this article compares the rationale for a single VAT rate with the justifications generally given for applying multiple rates and exemptions. He focuses on India and evaluates the main justification for multiple rates and exemptions in its GST system, namely combating regressivity. It is argued that relief for the burden the GST particularly imposed on the lowest income groups can be provided more effectively than through reduced rates and exemption by incorporating into the GST system a rebate for GST paid up to the poverty level.

The COVID-19 pandemic has limited human mobility, including in matters of vacation. Governments in many countries require their citizens to vaccinate to reduce patients and deaths from COVID-19. On the other hand, the government also provides concessions to residents who want to travel if they have received vaccinations. This study examines the factors that influence the intention of tourists to travel during the pandemic. The predictor factors used in this study were motivation for COVID-19 vaccination, perception of COVID-19, travel risk perception, and attitude toward COVID-19 vaccination certificate. We conducted this study in a city on the island of Java, Indonesia. This study’s data collection used an online questionnaire, and participants were selected using a convenient sampling method. In total, there were 212 participants involved. The data were processed using exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, and structural equation modelling. As a result, motivation for COVID-19 vaccination and travel risk perception significantly affected the attitude toward COVID-19 vaccination certificates. Besides, travel risk perception greatly influenced travel intention after the pandemic subsides. This study deepens the field of tourism marketing and health marketing.

Authors: Calderón Vinueza Carlos , Colcha Guashpa Freddy Orlando
Published: May 2024

El diagnóstico de fallas mecánicas mediante un transductor de presión de cilindros utilizado en motores de combustión interna, se utilizó un osciloscopio Picoscope 2204A  y un transductor construido con un sensor de presión P265 de 300PSI, con esta instrumentación en el vehículo Chevrolet Optra 1.8 cc del 2006, realizado en la ciudad de Esmeraldas – Ecuador, que se encuentra a 25msnm. Con la ejecución de estas pruebas se obtuvo oscilogramas para dos autos de similares características, lo cual permitió realizar el contraste de los resultados entre vehículos y las curvas establecidas en “Automotive Oscilloscopes Waveform Analysis”, mediante el cual permite dar un diagnóstico visual de fallas en función del análisis del oscilograma, teniendo en cuenta el pico máximo, simetría en el ángulo de la torre, concavidades de vacío correctas, ángulos de apertura y cierre de las válvulas. Para realizar las pruebas es importante, que el vehículo alcance la temperatura normal de funcionamiento, desconectar el inyector y aterrizar la bujía a tierra del cilindro que está en prueba. Esta prueba es una técnica avanzada de diagnóstico, conocida por pocos técnicos automotrices, pero facilita en gran medida el diagnóstico asertivo de fallas, minimizando gastos innecesarios por diagnósticos errados, e incrementar la satisfacción del cliente. Por lo que se recomienda socializar el uso de los equipos de diagnóstico y los resultados de la investigación a técnicos de talleres automotrices de la localidad, para que puedan implementar este método de análisis y diagnóstico en los motores de combustión.

Published: May 2024

To improve the quality of grape berries and bunches, berry thinning is adopted. In this practice, a sizeable quantity of thinned berries is destroyed despite having valuable contents. Thinned berries are utilized to produce verjuice in different countries. To assess the effect of grape varieties and ingredients on verjuice quality, the present study was conducted at ICAR-National Research Centre for Grapes, Pune during the fruiting season of 2022-2023. Thinned grape berries (6-8 mm diameter) from four varieties namely Manjari Naveen, Crimson Seedless, Thompson Seedless and Manjari Kishmish were utilized with three treatments as the addition of 0.49 g NaCl salt/100 mL, 3 mL olive oil/100 mL and combination of 0.49 g NaCl salt and 3 mL olive oil/100 mL. Physico-chemical parameters of prepared verjuice types were observed initially as well as 15, 30 and 45 days of storage at ambient conditions. At the initial stage, among the varieties, treatments and their interactions showed non-significant differences for TSS, acidity and pH. Among the different verjuice types, except Crimson Seedless with salt and olive oil, were recorded with maximum TSS. The pH values Were ranged from 2.35 to 2.57 while the maximum recorded titratable acidity was 3.07% whereas the lowest acidity was 2.43%. Verjuice storage at ambient conditions resulted in reduced TSS, acidity and pH. Verjuice prepared from Manjari Kishmish showed superiority in all sensory parameters while verjuice from Thompson Seedless was scored minimum. Results recorded in the present study revealed that the quality of verjuice was acceptable and need to study the combinations of different type grapes to improve verjuice quality and pesticide degradation in the process.

In the constantly advancing era of digitalisation, ensuring cyber security has become essential in preserving the integrity, confidentiality, and accessibility of organisational data. The primary focus of this research is to emphasise the importance of cybersecurity awareness in safeguarding systems and information. The 1945 Constitution serves as the primary governing document for the government and legal system. The 1945 Constitution enacts legislation that ensures freedom of expression, a pertinent principle in cyber security. This research aimed to examine the role of security management in enhancing cyber security by applying principles in accordance with the 1945 Constitution. This research identified the factors affecting cyber security awareness and proposed strategies to enhance user awareness through a comprehensive literature review and examined recent findings. Security management is essential for guaranteeing the security of IT systems and infrastructure. Based on a literature review, this study determined the role of security management in assisting organisations in identifying, managing, and addressing security threats effectively. In addition, the hypothesised findings concluded that advancing cyber security in Indonesia is a fundamental aspect of state sovereignty, as stated in the 1945 Constitution and the principle of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia (NKRI). These findings demonstrated the significance of comprehending cyber security for users and organisations and the necessity of international cooperation in the realm of national security in cyber. By gaining a more comprehensive comprehension of the function of security management, it is anticipated that organisations can enhance security protocols and mitigate security vulnerabilities as they confront the challenges of the present digital age.

Published: May 2024

This scientific research addresses issues related to the study of the statics and dynamics of interaction and cooperation of subjects of public control in Russia with the federal control and accounting authorities - the Accounts Chamber, which, at the same time, acts as a body of parliamentary control. The article also analyzes the institution of public control as a key guarantee of the implementation of the system of constitutional principles, first of all, democracy and the participation of Russian citizens in the functioning of the public administration system. The authors examine the existing forms and methods of interaction between the above-mentioned body of parliamentary control and subjects of public control. The article examines the main problems that make it difficult to optimize the mechanism of interaction between the Accounts Chamber of Russia and subjects of public control, in particular, in connection with: the failure to consolidate the foundations of such interaction in the Constitution of the Russian Federation, as well as the legislation regulating the organization and activities of the Accounts Chamber of Russia; the lack of development in the legislation on public control, as well as in scientific and educational literature, of specific forms and methods of the above-mentioned interaction; weak powers of subjects of public control, including the Public Chamber of the Russian Federation; weak use of positive foreign experience of interaction between parliamentary control bodies and civil society institutions, including those whose activities are aimed at organizing and exercising control over the apparatus of public power; insufficient use of modern information and communication technologies in this interaction; weak funding of public control subjects in the country. The work formalizes and substantiates a system of measures to resolve these problems, including by: developing and consolidating in the Constitution of Russia, as well as current legislation, a mechanism for interaction of subjects of public control with public authorities, including the Accounts Chamber of the Russian Federation; organization by the Public Chamber of Russia of analysis, adaptation and subsequent implementation of foreign positive experience of interaction between parliamentary control bodies and subjects of public control; development and implementation of a system of federal programs aimed at developing the system of subjects of public control, their organizational, financial, and technical support; development in the domestic scientific legal doctrine of directions for optimizing the mechanism of interaction between the Accounts Chamber of the Russian Federation and subjects of public control.
