Published: December 2024

AbstractThe swift urbanisation and sprawl observed in major cities of Bangladesh have prompted a detailed examination of their spatiotemporal dynamics. Therefore, this study explores the intricate patterns of urban sprawl, aiming to provide comprehensive insights into its evolution and impact. Landsat TM images from 2003 and 2013, along with an OLI image from 2023, are employed in supervised classification to detect temporal built‐up area expansion of the Rangpur City Corporation (RpCC). Urban sprawl trends and patterns were evaluated and analysed using Shannon's Entropy Model (SEM), Landscape Metrics (LMs), and the Urban Expansion Intensity Index (UEII). Findings include an increase in the urban expansion rate of 16.5% in 2023. Consequently, RpCC's urban expansion trend from 2003 to 2023 is 16 times greater. Additionally, SEM and LMs confirmed that the RpCC expanded in a dispersed manner and the uncontrolled expansion in urban areas, respectively. These results definitively measure urban sprawl and threaten the sustainable development of RpCC.

Published: December 2024

AimMalnutrition is reportedly associated with the development of delirium. As dental health is essential for nutritional intake, tooth loss may be a risk factor for the development of delirium. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between postoperative delirium and the number of remaining teeth in patients undergoing gastrointestinal surgery.MethodsThis retrospective study included 453 consecutive patients aged ≥65 years who underwent programmed gastrointestinal cancer surgery under general anesthesia at the Department of Surgery, Fujita Health University Hospital, between January 2022 and December 2022. Background factors were prepared between the participants with and without dental intervention. In the dental intervention group, associations between background and surgical factors and the presence of postoperative delirium were explored. Factors with significant associations with postoperative delirium in the univariate analysis were subjected to logistic regression analysis to determine their association with the number of remaining teeth.ResultsOverall, 189 participants underwent postoperative management. They had a significantly lower Prognostic Nutritional Index and higher cognitive decline than the 264 patients who underwent no dental intervention during this period. However, no significant difference was observed in the incidence of postoperative delirium between the two groups. In the dental intervention group, logistic regression analyses revealed that postoperative complications and the number of remaining teeth were significantly associated with postoperative delirium development.ConclusionThe results revealed that a decrease in the number of remaining teeth is associated with postoperative delirium. The cause of this is not clear, but it is thought to be related to brain fragility. Geriatr Gerontol Int 2025; 25: 90–95.
‘LUMEN SUPERNATURALE ’ VS ‘LUMEN NATURALE ’: HUMAN RIGHTS AND THEIR RELIGIOUS IMPLICATIONS IN NATURAL LAW IN THE EARLY ENLIGHTENMENT (PUFENDORF – THOMASIUS – WOLFF)
Authors: Schmitt‐Maass Christoph 
Published: December 2024

ABSTRACTIn the Middle Ages, the divine order was considered the standard of law. Natural law was thus derived from the divine order. In the Enlightenment, the problem of determining the content of natural law unambiguously, i.e., independently of personal viewpoints, was well known. The natural law doctrine of the Age of Enlightenment, as is broadly agreed in scholarship, founded and prepared the way for the general declarations of human rights. When, with the Renaissance and the beginning of the Enlightenment, religious ties weakened, the consensus among scholars was that a form of argumentation found in natural law becomes more important: human beings had a dignity derived not from God, but from nature and from birth, from which the fundamental human rights to life, freedom and security were then derived. The ‘nature’ of the human being was thus regarded as a source of justification and appeal, as a source of law. In the German‐speaking world, Samuel Pufendorf, Christian Thomasius, and Christian Wolff are among the most renowned founders of natural law. I will answer the question of how far the justification of human rights in the natural law of the early Enlightenment manages without instances of religious justification.
WHO SOUNDS MOST WORTHY OF HUMAN RIGHTS? AURAL CULTURAL DIVERSITY, THE CONCEPT OF HUMANITY AND THEIR RELIGIOUS INVESTMENTS IN GERMAN LANGUAGE IDEOLOGIES
Authors: Solanki Tanvi 
Published: December 2024

ABSTRACTThis article introduces aural cultural diversity as an important criterion with regard to human rights. By ‘aural cultural diversity’, I mean thinking about human diversity based not on ocular‐centric notions of race but on how the particularity of peoples becomes manifest in their differentiated manners of listening and responding to the sounds of spoken language. The concept of humanity, although it presents itself as inclusive and universal, emerges from a Christian theory of monogenesis. The fall of the tower of Babel and the subsequent diversity of spoken languages is a problem for theories of the origins of humanity ordained by God. The German ‘science’ of comparative linguistics can be viewed as a strategy to maintain Christian control over aural cultural diversity, creating hierarchies between languages based on seemingly objective grammatical and lexical rules. It bore consequences for the human rights of those peoples who spoke languages in non‐standard, deviant or unexpected ways. While it is well established that the theory of Indo‐European language groups was used as a defence against virulent nationalism and fascism in Germany, are there more subtle and lasting consequences of dehumanisation based on listening to a hierarchy of sounds marked as ‘different’ and ‘other’?
The Echoes of Feminism in the Dual‐Career Family
Authors: Berlato Heliani , Andretta Danilo , Fernandes Thais 
Published: December 2024

ABSTRACTResearch on dual‐career families explores different aspects that influence the work–family relationship for couples who aim to develop their careers while having a family life. However, this literature fails in recognizing the contributions of feminism to question and rethink the role of women in the dual‐career relationship. Therefore, the objective of this study is to reflect upon the dual‐career family from the perspective of several aspects of feminism and its influences on the couple's career paths. To this effect, various elements that appear in the literature on dual‐career families were discussed and problematized from a feminist perspective: the role of organizations, the sexual division of labor, the meanings of career, as well as women who are invisible in these studies. As a theoretical contribution this essay provides the approximation of the dual‐career family studies with feminist theories, enabling a redefinition of the concept and renewal of research on this topic.

ABSTRACTIntroductionPoor oral health can influence an individual's dietary intake, which may result in malnutrition. Both problems in oral health and function and malnutrition are common in older people. The aim of the present study was to explore the associations between oral health and oral function and malnutrition in community‐dwelling older people within three different databases.MethodsData analyses were performed on three existing Dutch databases (Interrai: n = 3876, LPZ: n = 966, PRIMa mouth CARE: n = 975). Logistic regressions (adjusted for age and gender) tested the relation between oral health and oral function (independent variable) and malnutrition (dependent variable).ResultsProblems in oral health and oral function such as broken teeth (OR: 1.43 [95%CI: 1.12–1.81]), oral pain and discomfort (OR: 2.58 [95%CI: 1.52–4.39]), chewing difficulties (OR: 1.99 [95%CI: 1.54–2.57]), swallowing problems (OR: 6.63 [95%CI: 2.85–15.42]), coughing (OR: 6.05 [95%CI: 2.08–17.61]) and food adaptations (OR: 5.46 [95%CI: 2.60–11.4]) were found to be significantly associated with malnutrition in older people.ConclusionsThis study demonstrated a significant link between oral health problems and oral function with malnutrition in community‐dwelling older people. Oral health care and healthcare professionals need to consider oral health and oral function in relation to nutritional status and vice versa in community‐dwelling older people.
Association Between Sealant and Early Impairment of First Molars in 6–14‐Year‐Olds: A 9‐Year Follow‐Up Using South Korean Cohort Data

Published: December 2024

ABSTRACTObjectivesThis study aimed to analyse the 2010–2018 cohort data of the National Health Insurance Service to examine the association between applying sealants in the first molars of children and their early dental impairment.MethodsBased on the two‐level mixed effect model (individual four teeth), the study participants were divided into two groups: those with sealants on all four first molars and those without sealants to determine the association between sealants and early impairment. We analysed teeth that had undergone extraction or canal filling to determine early impairment.ResultsThe rate of early impairment in the first molars was approximately 7.4 times lower in the sealant group (0.65%) than in the non‐sealant group (4.83%). Early impairment of first molars was higher in females, medically cared for and in rural populations. It was also higher in the maxillary first molars (3.7%) than in the mandibular first molars (3.49%), in more rural areas, and in lower household income groups. In generalised linear mixed models, first molars with sealants were 14.9% less likely to have early impairment than those without sealants (p = 0.000).ConclusionsThe study findings suggest that applying sealants on the first molars is important to prevent early dental caries development and prolong the functional integrity of first molars. In addition, we found that maxillary first molars were more susceptible to early impairment than mandibular first molars, even when sealant was applied.

ABSTRACTExogenous melatonin (MT) can aid crops in mitigating drought stress, yet its impacts on cotton pollen fertility under drought remain understudied. To address this, a study on the effects of exogenous MT on cotton pollen sterility and internal physiological metabolism under drought stress was conducted. Results showed that although antioxidant enzymes catalase (CAT), peroxidase (POD) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activities increased in drought‐stressed anthers, yet this was insufficient to balance reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, which led to higher hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and superoxide anion (O2−) accumulation, resulting in oxidative stress, manifested by elevated malondialdehyde (MDA) and reduced pollen viability. Remarkably, the application of MT further bolstered the activities of CAT, POD and SOD in drought‐stressed anthers, effectively mitigating the accumulation of O2− and H2O2. This enhancement facilitated the antioxidant defence system under drought conditions. Simultaneously, the activity of ascorbate peroxidase (APX) was reduced, which prevented the reduction of dehydroascorbate (DHA) to ASA, and the ascorbic acid‐glutathione (AsA‐GSH) cycle was destroyed, leading to the accumulation of GSH. Nevertheless, MT application triggered upregulation of both GhDHAR and GhMDHAR expressions, promoting AsA synthesis and regeneration, respectively, thereby elevating AsA levels. Furthermore, MT revitalised APX activity, accelerating the removal of H2O2 through AsA‐mediated reduction, ultimately restoring the balance of the AsA‐GSH cycle and enhancing the overall antioxidant capacity of drought‐stressed anthers. In summary, exogenous MT can enhance the scavenging ability of ROS in drought‐affected anthers by elevating the activities of CAT, POD and SOD and by enhancing APX activity in the AsA‐GSH cycle, thereby alleviating drought‐induced oxidative stress and improving pollen fertility under water deficit stress.

Authors: Fan Xiaoxue , Zhang Zhiping , Liu Hongfei 
Published: December 2024

AbstractA series of NaxMgxSc2 − xW3O12 (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.75) ceramics has been prepared by the coprecipitation process. The phase composition, crystal structure, morphology, and thermal expansion behavior of NaxMgxSc2 − xW3O12 samples were investigated. The results show that (NaMg)3+ substitution causes a phase transition in NaxMgxSc2 − xW3O12. For 0 < x ≤ 0.25, both orthorhombic Sc2W3O12 and hexagonal NaxMgxSc2 − xW3O12 coexist in the sample. For 0.25 < x ≤ 0.75, (NaMg)3+ double cations successfully replace Sc3+, and single‐phase hexagonal NaxMgxSc2 − xW3O12 ceramics were prepared. For x = 1, the impurity MgWO4 was detected. As the (NaMg)3+ codoping amount increases, the grain size grew up and the density of the NaxMgxSc2 − xW3O12 ceramics increased. The coefficients of thermal expansion (CTE) of negative thermal expansion (NTE) NaxMgxSc2 − xW3O12 (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.75) ceramics were improved from −6.02 × 10−6°C−1 to −15.19 × 10−6°C−1 in 30–700°C. Moreover, as the sintering temperature increased, the CTEs of Na0.75Mg0.75Sc1.25W3O12 ceramics were improved from −10.36 × 10−6°C−1 to −13.64 × 10−6°C−1.

Published: December 2024

AbstractPheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PPGLs) are rare neuroendocrine tumours that originate from chromaffin cells and occur in the adrenal medulla and in the sympathetic or parasympathetic ganglia. Nearly 70% of PPGLs result from germline or somatic mutations in a single driver gene. The aim of this study was to characterize the genetic background and clinical characteristics related to genetic profile of patients with PPGLs from Romania. We retrospectively retrieved data of 125 patients consecutively registered, diagnosed with PPGLs in a tertiary referral center of endocrinology from Romania, between 1976 and 2022. We identified 88 (70.4%) women, and 37 (29.6%) men, with a mean age at diagnosis of 48.5 ± 15 years. From these 125 patients, 80 (64%) were submitted to the genomic study; 35% (n = 28) had a germline mutation (20 RET, 3 VHL, 1 SDHB, 1 NF1, 1 SDHD, 1 FANCA, 1 CASR) while 65% (n = 52) presented sporadic disease. Patients with hereditary disease had significantly lower age at diagnosis comparing to sporadic cases (37 ± 15 vs. 49.9 ± 12.2 years, p = 0.001). Bilateral tumors developed in twelve patients from the hereditary group. Metastatic disease was described in 4 out of 80 patients (2 of them with hereditary disease). Patients from sporadic group tended to have a right lateralisation of the tumour compared to hereditary cases, where the tumour was more often left sided. RET pathogenic variant (p.Cys634Trp) associated with MEN2A syndrome was the most prevalent in Romanian population with PPGLs and could be considered as a founder effect. Patients with hereditary disease are diagnosed at a younger age and develop bilateral tumors more frequently compared to sporadic cases.

AbstractBackgroundInherited epidermolysis bullosa (EB) comprises a group of genetic disorders characterized by skin fragility and unique oral features. It requires interdisciplinary care from several health professionals, including oral health teams. Modern dentistry encompasses a wide range of therapeutic options performed by specialists from different fields.ObjectiveTo guide clinicians caring for patients with different types of EB to seek care from different dental services.MethodsDental treatment needs for patients with EB were identified based on a systematic literature review. A panel of experts was consulted and invited to provide additional information through an open‐ended question over 7 months. A Delphi study was applied over two rounds to the resulting pathways design. The threshold of consensus was set a priori at 75%. Patients' representatives revised the final document.ResultsThe panel (n = 17) agreed on a total of 55 recommendations divided into six groups according to the severity of oral compromise in EB (52 recommendations were agreed on in round 1, and three were agreed on in round 2).ConclusionsDental care pathways are presented for each type of EB. Specific considerations are discussed according to clinical features, including age of first referral, frequency of follow‐up appointments, and list of dental specialties involved in the care of patients with EB.

Published: December 2024

ABSTRACTThe pejerrey (Odontesthes bonariensis) is a key species for recreational and commercial fisheries in Argentina and holds significant aquaculture potential. It has been introduced to various countries worldwide, including Japan, where intensive aquaculture has developed. However, infectious diseases present major challenges to its cultivation, as pejerrey is susceptible to diverse pathogens, including bacteria, fungi and parasites. The primary bacterial pathogens affecting pejerrey include the genera Aeromonas, Pseudomonas and Mycobacterium (M. piscida). Fungal‐like pathogens such as Saprolegnia spp., and fungal pathogens such as Achyla racemosa and Fusarium species (F. solani and F. semitectum) are also prevalent. Additionally, pejerrey hosts external and internal parasites, primarily Lernaea cyprinacea and members of the genera Cangatiella, Gyrodactylus, Contracaecum and Diplostomum. This review explores the primary infectious diseases affecting pejerrey, focusing on their symptoms, epidemiology and causative pathogens, based on literature from multiple countries and languages. Although no new diseases have emerged, we have identified persistent challenges that have remained unsolved for decades, highlighting the need for further research. Understanding the biology and epidemiology of these pathogens is crucial for expanding the aquaculture of pejerrey. Moreover, we examine how environmental changes, such as global warming, pollution and alien species, may influence disease dynamics in wild populations, stressing the need for management measures to preserve this valuable resource.
