CONTEMPORARY PERSPECTIVES ON ETHNICALLY TARGETED INTERNMENTS: A STUDY ON THE CHINESE INDIAN AND THE JAPANESE CANADIAN WARTIME EXPERIENCES
Authors: Sukul Anamika 
Published: July 2020

Purpose of the study: The purpose of the study is to provide a new theoretical interpretation of how nation-States have exercised control over targeted ethnic communities through the repressive act of camp internment. It uses two major global historical events as the frame of reference: the internment of the Chinese ethnic community in India during the 1962 Sino-Indian conflict, and internment of the Japanese ethnic population in Canada during World War II.
Methodology: This study draws on Michel Foucault’s theories on “biopolitics” to analyze the States’ mechanisms of control during wartime periods. The Foucauldian framework of “biopolitics” is used as a theoretical tool to develop a concurrent study on the internment experiences of the two ethnic groups, and provide a new understanding of the conceptualization of this regulatory decision enforced by the government.
Main Findings: The findings show the internment as an expression of State-regulated biopolitical control, in which groups of people come under the administration of a power whose sole function is to subjugate their lives and bodies by detaining them in camps. It concludes that a mass internment decisions, usually taken under the pretext of “national security,” undermines the democratic set-up of a nation.
Applications of this study: Taken together, findings of this study contribute to scholarly discussions in the field of social sciences and humanities. It will be of particular interest to those engaged in a contemporary interpretation of discriminatory actions against minority communities in the larger global context. It, however, carries a relevance beyond scholarly discourses – it warns us against replication of such unwarranted episodes in the future.
Novelty/Originality of this study: Unlike most biopolitical studies regarding authoritarian regimes, this one develops the arguments through internment cases that occurred in the world's two leading democracies. Though Japanese Canadian internment has been studied widely, Chinese Indian study is still nascent. Analyzing these episodes together under theoretical paradigms throws new insights on the State's exertion of power upon a targeted population in a modern democratic system.Japanese Canadian Internment

Published: July 2020

This study aims to explore the potential model of collaboration among institutions such as the Financial Services Authority (OJK) as regulators, higher education institutions, general higher education institutions and religious higher education, sharia insurance industry associations, actuary professional associations and sharia insurance companies to carry out non-sharia certification of the sharia actuary profession. This study uses descriptive qualitative approach and literature study method. The results of the study recommend that certification programs that span sharia actuaries require several institutional roles includingFinancial Services Authority (OJK), National Sharia Council (DSN), Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI), Indonesian Syariah Insurance Association (AASI) and Indonesian Actuary Association (PAI). Each agency has their respective duties and functions such as regulators, prospective actuary providers, distance education providers, certification providers, and material providers.

Authors: Arismendi Andres , Gallego Hernan , Galeano Daniela , Hurtado Catalina , Herrera Ana Milena 
Published: July 2020

Case:
A 55-year-old man presented with an isolated undisplaced basal coracoid process (CP) fracture after direct trauma over his right shoulder. One week later, he presented with pain and anatomical deformity over the acromioclavicular joint (ACJ). Shoulder x-rays and computerized tomography revealed a complete acromioclavicular (AC) dislocation and displaced CP fracture. Anatomical AC reduction and ipsilateral coracoid fracture reduction were obtained using fixation with a hook plate. At 12-month follow-up, the patient regained functionality and showed complete CP consolidation and anatomic alignment of the ACJ.

Conclusion:
Our alternative treatment of coracoid fracture associated with secondary subacute AC dislocation showed satisfactory functional results.

Published: July 2020

Abstract
Background: Diabetes mellitus is a major global health issue with a growing prevalence. In this context, the number of diabetic complications is also on the rise, such as diabetic foot ulcers (DFU), which are closely linked to the risk of lower extremity amputation (LEA). Statistical prediction tools may support clinicians to initiate early tertiary LEA prevention for DFU patients. Thus, we designed Bayesian prediction models, as they produce transparent decision rules, quantify uncertainty intuitively and acknowledge prior available scientific knowledge.Method: A logistic regression using observational collected according to the standardised PEDIS classification was utilised to compute the six-month amputation risk of DFU patients for two types of LEA: 1.) any-amputation and 2.) major-amputation. Being able to incorporate information which is available before the analysis, the Bayesian models were fitted following a twofold strategy. First, the designed prediction models waive the available information and, second, we incorporated the a priori available scientific knowledge into our models. Then, we evaluated each model with respect to the effect of the predictors and validity of the models. Next, we compared the performance of both models with respect to the incorporation of prior knowledge.Results: This study included 237 patients. The mean age was 65.9 (SD 12.3), and 83.5 per cent were male. Concerning the outcome, 31.6% underwent any- and 12.2% underwent a major-amputation procedure. The risk factors of perfusion, ulcer extent and depth revealed an impact on the outcomes, whereas the infection status and sensation did not. The major-amputation model using prior information outperformed the uninformed counterpart (AUC 0.765 vs AUC 0.790, Cohen’s d 2.21). In contrast, the models predicting any-amputation performed similarly (0.793 vs 0.790, Cohen’s d 0.22).Conclusions: Both of the Bayesian amputation risk models showed acceptable prognostic values, and the major-amputation model benefitted from incorporating a priori information from a previous study. Thus, PEDIS serves as a valid foundation for a clinical decision support tool for the prediction of the amputation risk in DFU patients. Furthermore, we demonstrated the use of the available prior scientific information within a Bayesian framework to establish chains of knowledge.

Published: July 2020

Abstract
Background: Patient distances can be calculated based on signs and symptoms derived from an ontological hierarchy. There is controversy as to whether patient distance metrics that consider the semantic similarity between concepts can outperform standard patient distance metrics that are agnostic to concept similarity. The choice of distance metric can dominate the performance of classification or clustering algorithms. Our objective was to determine if semantically augmented distance metrics would outperform standard metrics on machine learning tasks. Methods: We converted the neurological findings from 382 published neurology cases into sets of concepts with corresponding machine-readable codes. We calculated patient distances by four different metrics (cosine distance, a semantically augmented cosine distance, Jaccard distance, and a semantically augmented bipartite distance). Semantic augmentation for two of the metrics depended on concept similarities from a hierarchical neuro-ontology. For machine learning algorithms, we used the patient diagnosis as the ground truth label and patient findings as machine learning features. We assessed classification accuracy for four classifiers and cluster quality for two clustering algorithms for each of the distance metrics.Results: Inter-patient distances were smaller when the distance metric was semantically augmented. Classification accuracy and cluster quality were not significantly different by distance metric.Conclusion: Although semantic augmentation reduced inter-patient distances, we did not find improved classification accuracy or improved cluster quality with semantically augmented patient distance metrics.

Published: July 2020

Abstract
Background：Although hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) could be subtyped into proficient or deficient mismatch repair gene expression (pMMR or dMMR), distinct clinical features between these two subgroups patients was rare reported. Methods：We retrospectively analyzed 175 hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) patients between January 1995 to December 2012. Cox proportional hazards model was used to compare the differences between two subgroups. Results：Significant differences of disease free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) exist between dMMR and pMMR. In addition to other factors including younger mean age of diagnosis for dMMR patients (48.6 years v.s. 54.3 years), operation type (more extended colectomy for dMMR 35.8% v.s. 14.5%), tumor location (right colon predominance for dMMR 61.7% v.s. 27.3% and more rectum cases for pMMR 41.8% v.s. 11.7%), tumor differentiation (more poor differentiation for dMMR 23.3% v.s. 9.0%), N staging (more N0 cases for dMMR 70.8% v.s. 50.9%), more frequently presence of extra-colonic tumors for dMMR (16.7% v.s.1.8%) and lower recurrence rates (9.1% v.s.35.3%). Significantly different cumulative incidence of developing metachronous colorectal cancer were observed with 6.18 for pMMR patients and 20.57 person-years for dMMR patients (p<0.001). Conclusions：Distinct clinicopathological features significantly exist between dMMR and pMMR subtypes patient, MMR status should be consider to tailor operation types and follow up surveillance between these two subgroups patients who all fulfilled with Amsterdam-II criteria.

Abstract
Background: Studying the ecology of biocontrol-agents is a prerequisite to effectively control medfly (C. capitata) with entomopathogenic fungi. In this context, factors affecting the occurrence and distribution of medfly-associated entomopathogenic-fungi were studied. Soil samples (22) were collected from natural and cultivated areas of Souss-region Morocco. Results: A total of 260 fungal isolates belonging to 22 species and 10 genera were obtained by using medfly pupae as bait. Medfly-associated fungi were detected in all studied soils and pupae infection percentages ranged from 3.33% to 48%. Two genera, Fusarium and Beauveria were the most frequent with 83 isolates (32%) and 50 isolates (19.23%) respectively. Pathogenicity test of isolated species against medfly pupae showed high mortality rates up to 91% for some strains. Principal component analysis (PCA) demonstrated strong influence of origin, physical and chemical properties of soil on the abundance of these fungi. In general, medfly-associated fungi were more abundant in soils with moderate pH (7.5 to 8) having high sand and organic content. High relative humidity negatively influenced the abundance of these fungi. Both factors directly affected the fungal infection percentages in pupae. The response of fungi to these parameters varied among species. According to principal component analysis (PCA) the soils of argan fields and forests were more suitable for the development of medfly-associated fungi than citrus orchards. Conclusions: These results provide guidance on identifying suitable soils for effective application of entomopathogenic fungi as biological control agents. In summary, isolated indigenous strains seem to be a promising option to control C. capitata.
Fatigability is closely associated with discoordination between heart rate variability and physical acceleration during free-moving days in younger women
Authors: Taniguchi Kentaro , Shimouchi Akito , Jinno Naoya , Seiyama Akitoshi 
Published: July 2020

Abstract
BackgroundFatigability is related to several diseases and the autonomic nervous system. We investigated whether fatigability is associated with the coordination between the physical acceleration (PA) and heart rate variability (HRV) in women.MethodOverall, 95 adult women were divided into younger group (n = 50; age: 22–59 years) and older group (n = 45; age: ≥ 60 years). HRV and PA data were simultaneously obtained every minute for 24 h. We defined %lag0 as the percent ratio of lag = 0 min between HRV and PA in 1 h. Cornell Medical Index was used to determine the degrees of physical and psychological symptoms.ResultsIn the younger group in the hour before sleep, the participants with high fatigability scores had significantly lower (p < 0.05) %lag0 than did those with low fatigability %lag0. Additionally, those with higher fatigability combined with exhaustion in the morning had significantly lower %lag0 than did those without exhaustion in the hour before sleep but not in the hour after waking up (p < 0.05).DiscussionThese results suggest that the coordination between HRV and PA in younger women was closely associated with their fatigability in the hour before sleep. Additionally, exhaustion in the morning may be related to the discoordination of HRV and PA the previous night.

Published: July 2020

Abstract
Background The purpose of this study was to analyze root migration and its influencing factors at 6 months after coronectomy in both two- and three-dimensions using periapical view and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Methods Thrity-three cases of root remnant after coronectomy were included and analyzed. We measured the amount of migration in CBCT. The following factors that could possibly affect root migration were also analyzed: age, gender, number of mandibular third molar (M3) roots, shape of M3s, Pell and Gregory classification, mesiodistal (MD) angulation, buccolingual (BL) angulation, contact point with the second molar, root curvature, and complete removal of the coronal portion. Results Migration of greater than 2 mm was found in 64% of the roots in the 2D analysis, and the average root migration was 4.11 mm in the 3D analysis. The factors affecting migration were the root morphology, complete removal of the coronal portion, impaction depth, and MD angulation in the 2D analysis, and MD and BL angulation in the 3D analysis. Conclusion In conclusion, complete removal of the coronal portion and ensuring sufficient space for root migration might be important factors after coronectomy of the M3. Clinical relevance Root remnant after coronectomy of M3 may migrate in young patients who has sufficient empty coronal space and this may reduce the nerve damage by the separation of IAN and M3.

Published: July 2020

Abstract
Background: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is common and difficult to treat and its pathogenesis is closely related to gut mircobiota. However, differences in gut mircobiota of patients in different regions make it more difficult to elucidate the mechanism of IBS. We performed an analysis of gut microbiota composition and functional prediction in Chinese patients with diarrhea-predominant IBS (IBS-D).Methods: Fecal samples were obtained from 30 IBS-D patients and 30 healthy controls (HCs) in Nanchang, China. Using 16S gene sequence profiles, we analyzed the abundance of dominant microbiota at different taxonomy levels. Based on 16S information, Phylogenetic Investigation of Communities by Reconstruction of Unobserved States (PICRUSt) was used to predicting the function of gut microbiota.Results: Compared to HCs, gut microbiota richness but not diversity was decreased in IBS-D patients. The abundant phyla Firmicutes, Fusobacteria and Actinobacteria decreased significantly, and Proteobacteria increased significantly in IBS-D patients. PICRUSt indicated that function expression of gut microbiota in IBS-D patients was up-regulated in metabolism of cofactors and vitamins, xenobiotics biodegradation and metabolism, and down-regulated in environmental adaptation, cell growth and death.Conclusions: Compared with the normal population in China, IBS-D patients are characterized by complex and unstable gut microbiota, which may influence inflammation and metabolism of the host.
MAP kinase phosphatase MKP-1 regulates p-ERK1/2 signaling pathway with fluoride treatment

Published: July 2020

Abstract
Background
Dental fluorosis is characterized by hypomineralization of tooth enamel caused by ingestion of excessive fluoride during enamel formation. Excess fluoride could have effects on the ERK signaling, which is essential for the ameloblasts differentiation and tooth development. MAP kinase phosphatase-1 (MKP-1) plays a critical role in regulating ERK related kinases. However, the role of MKP-1 in ameloblast and the mechanisms of MKP-1/ERK signaling in the pathogenesis of dental fluorosis are incompletely understood.
Results
Here, we adopted an in vitro fluorosis cell model using murine ameloblasts-like LS8 cells by employing sodium fluoride (NaF) as inducer. Using this system, we demonstrated that fluoride exposure led to an inhibition of p- MEK and p-ERK1/2 with a subsequent increase in MKP-1 expression in a dose-dependent manner. We further identified, under high dose fluoride, MKP-1 acted as a negative regulator of the fluoride-induced p-ERK1/2 signaling, leading to downregulation of CREB, c-myc, and Elk-1.
Conclusion
Our results identify a novel MKP-1/ERK signaling mechanism that regulates dental fluorosis and provide a framework for studying the molecular mechanisms of intervention and fluorosis remodeling under normal and pathological conditions. MKP-1 inhibitors may prove to be a benefit therapeutic strategy for dental fluorosis treatment.
