Objective: The first aim of this study was to determine the performance of a deep learning object detection technique in the detection of maxillary sinuses on panoramic radiographs. The second aim was to clarify the performance in the classification of maxillary sinus lesions compared with healthy maxillary sinuses. Methods: The imaging data for healthy maxillary sinuses (587 sinuses, Class 0), inflamed maxillary sinuses (416 sinuses, Class 1), cysts of maxillary sinus regions (171 sinuses, Class 2) were assigned to training, testing 1, and testing 2 data sets. A learning process of 1000 epochs with the training images and labels was performed using DetectNet, and a learning model was created. The testing 1 and testing 2 images were applied to the model, and the detection sensitivities and the false-positive rates per image were calculated. The accuracies, sensitivities and specificities were determined for distinguishing the inflammation group (Class 1) and cyst group (Class 2) with respect to the healthy group (Class 0). Results: Detection sensitivities of healthy (Class 0) and inflamed (Class 1) maxillary sinuses were 100% for both testing 1 and testing 2 data sets, whereas they were 98 and 89% for cysts of the maxillary sinus regions (Class 2). False-positive rates per image were nearly 0.00. Accuracies, sensitivities and specificities for diagnosis maxillary sinusitis were 90–91%, 88–85%, and 91–96%, respectively; for cysts of the maxillary sinus regions, these values were 97–100%, 80–100%, and 100–100%, respectively. Conclusion: Deep learning could reliably detect the maxillary sinuses and identify maxillary sinusitis and cysts of the maxillary sinus regions. Advances in knowledge: This study using a deep leaning object detection technique indicated that the detection sensitivities of maxillary sinuses were high and the performance of maxillary sinus lesion identification was ≧80%. In particular, performance of sinusitis identification was ≧90%.

The problem of defining the prospects, opportunities, limitations and methodological format of assessing the competitiveness of an enterprise in a transitive economy using the Balanced Scorecard (BSC) concept has been considered. The relevance of the issue is due, on the one hand, to global trends in innovative development, and on the other hand, to the incompliance of performance of the post-socialist industrial enterprises with the characteristics of innovative development. The creation of mechanisms for improving the enterprise’s competitiveness and its appropriate assessment based on the use of advanced management practices and technologies is becoming increasingly relevant.
The purpose of study is to improve methodological approach to the BSC-based assessment of competitiveness of a value-oriented enterprise, and to substantiate the prospects of effective integration of the BSC into the existing enterprise management system. This research paper justifies the possibility of using various methodological forms, including the simplest ones, of the Balanced Scorecard, which features a transformational nature, in the process of forming a balanced strategic management of enterprise. Methodical approach has been proposed for identification of the enterprise strategy directed at increase of its market value and strategic competitiveness. Matrix analysis was applied to assess the enterprise performance indicators; it revealed a relationship between the enterprise's competitive position and class of its innovation BSC-based strategies. To assess the enterprise’s competitiveness, an integral index of its investment attractiveness has been proposed, and to assess the class of the enterprise innovative strategies, an integral index of the enterprise innovations was calculated. The proposed methodological approach was used to perform expert sampling within the frame of indicators for determining the investment attractiveness and innovativeness of a metallurgical enterprise by the criteria of strategic orientation, efficiency and functionality. The study has analyzed the experience gained by the leading enterprises of Ukraine’s metallurgical complex in using BSC in a limited methodological format as a tool for identifying the strategy of an enterprise, assessing its competitiveness, innovativeness and investment attractiveness. The result of the study was the conclusion about the possibility of applying the simplest Balanced Scorecard forms as a catalyst for innovative transformations and developing balanced enterprise management in transition economies.

Diplomatic Protection upon Extradition within the System of International Law
Authors: SODIKOV Sharbatullo Dzhaborovich 
Published: July 2020

Globalization scales up transnational threats, including crime, and raises the question about the principles and practice of interaction between states in the fight against crime. In this context, one of the most important issues is the extradition of foreign citizens and their diplomatic protection.
Diplomatic protection emerged alongside sovereign states and their interests. However, the current development of the world community associated with globalization, a medley of peoples and global economic integration seriously changes the rules of diplomatic protection. In the past, these rules were quite simple: diplomatic bodies defended state interests, the interests of their citizens, economic and other entities within the framework of established legal norms. Today the concept of ‘friend-or-foe’ also changes due to the growing integration of states, peoples, companies and increasing migration.
The authors of the article have analyzed multilateral, bilateral and regional agreements, as well as national laws on extradition, and have concluded that subjects of international law need to focus on the principle of reciprocity when deciding on extradition.

Depok City has become one of the cities with high economic growth in West Java Province. This high growth, however, also has impact on the environment. This study aimed to review the level of regional development and linkages among economic sectors and calculate Green GRDP for regional development directions. Scalogram method and input output analysis were applied to indicate the level of regional development and identify the key sectors. The value of green GRDP was obtained from the calculation of natural resource depletion and calculation of environmental degradation. The research showed that 65.08% of villages in Depok City were in the form of hinterland. The sector of electricity, gas, and drinking water was the key sector of economic development in Depok City. Furthermore, the Green GRDP value only had a difference of 4.47% or Rp2,610.78 billion, compared to Brown GRDP. However, if the GRDP difference was compared to the original local government revenue, this would consume all of the income. The analysis resulted green GRDP was more relevant to be applied as an economic indicator because better description the level of overall welfare.

Gender as a category of cultural gender and gender identity appears not only in scientific discourse as a topic of research, but also in public discourse, as a subject of various debates and disputes. This concept was also included into the discourse of the Catholic Church. Its creators – church leaders – embarked upon a public reinterpretation of the concept of gender, thus inserting their point of view into the broader political and ideological dispute. The aim of this paper is to review the postulates of the church concerning gender in the Pastoral Letter on the Feast of the Holy Family, which seems to be a leading programme paper concerning this issue. In this paper, gender as a research and scientific category is isolated from the scientific discourse and appropriatedby the educational discourse of the church, where it functions as a scare tactic. Structural modifications in the text and style of the letter, stylistic and rhetorical tricks, as well as pragmatic mechanisms, make the text of the pastoral letter a persuasive political argument.

Behaviour of steel sheeting connections with self-drilling screws under variable loading
Authors: Budziński Rafał , Ślęczka Lucjan 
Published: July 2020

Abstract
Connections made by self-drilling screws are often used in steel cold-formed structures and sheeting. Their structural properties, such as resistance, flexibility and ductility are obtained by testing under monotonically increasing loading and can influence on overall behaviour of structures. This paper presents results of experimental study how variable load deteriorates those structural properties of lap shear connections with self-drilling screws. One monotonic and four variable loading histories were utilized, with displacement and force control. Applied loading histories were aimed to simulate persistent design situation, which referred to the conditions of normal use according to EN 1990. Deterioration of resistance and flexibility have been assessed for each variable loading history. It was observed that resistance deterioration is directly proportional to loading range. In case of flexibility, at small displacement range connectors become stiffer. Degradation of flexibility starts to increase at larger displacement range.

AbstractThe orthogonalization of Boolean functions in disjunctive form, that means a Boolean function formed by sum of products, is a classical problem in the Boolean algebra. In this work, the novel methodologyORTH[ⴱ] of orthogonalization which is an universally valid formula based on the combination technique »orthogonalizing difference-building ⴱ« is presented. Therefore, the technique ⴱ is used to transform Sum of Products into disjoint Sum of Products. The scope of orthogonalization will be solved by a novel formula in a mathematically easier way. By a further procedure step of sorting product terms, a minimized disjoint Sum of Products can be reached. Compared to other methods or heuristicsORTH[ⴱ] provides a faster computation time.

Published: July 2020

Abstract
This paper extends the applicability of the combined use of the virtual element method (VEM) and the boundary element method (BEM), recently introduced to solve the coupling of linear elliptic equations in divergence form with the Laplace equation, to the case of acoustic scattering problems in 2D and 3D. The well-posedness of the continuous and discrete formulations are established, and then Cea-type estimates and consequent rates of convergence are derived.
Left and right inverse eigenpairs problem with a submatrix constraint for the generalized centrosymmetric matrix
Authors: Li Fan-Liang 
Published: July 2020

Abstract
Left and right inverse eigenpairs problem is a special inverse eigenvalue problem. There are many meaningful results about this problem. However, few authors have considered the left and right inverse eigenpairs problem with a submatrix constraint. In this article, we will consider the left and right inverse eigenpairs problem with the leading principal submatrix constraint for the generalized centrosymmetric matrix and its optimal approximation problem. Combining the special properties of left and right eigenpairs and the generalized singular value decomposition, we derive the solvability conditions of the problem and its general solutions. With the invariance of the Frobenius norm under orthogonal transformations, we obtain the unique solution of optimal approximation problem. We present an algorithm and numerical experiment to give the optimal approximation solution. Our results extend and unify many results for left and right inverse eigenpairs problem and the inverse eigenvalue problem of centrosymmetric matrices with a submatrix constraint.

Love(rs) in the making: Moral subjectivity in the face of sexbots
Authors: Bergen Jan Peter 
Published: July 2020

AbstractThis article offers a novel reading of the criticisms of sex robots put forward by theCampaign Against Sex Robots(CASR). Focusing on the implication of a loss of empathy, it structures CASR’s worries as anargument from moral degradationcentered around the potential effects on sexbot users’ sexual and moral subjectivity. This argument is subsequently explored through the combined lenses of postphenomenology and the ethical phenomenology of Emmanuel Levinas. In so doing, it describes the type of human-technology relations that sexbots invite, identifying alterity as a central feature. It also highlights how alterity, responsibility, and subjectivity are intimately connected. However, that connection is distinctly different in sexual circumstances, making current versions of Levinasian roboethics largely inapplicable for the ethics of sexbots. To overcome this, the article delves into Levinas’ phenomenology of Eros and identifies voluptuousness as a type of enjoyment of the Other that is different from the enjoyment invited by current sexbots and is compatible with responsibility. Based on this, the article provides examples of how this phenomenology of Eros can inspire the design of future sexbots in ways that alleviate some of CASR’s concerns.
Peristaltic thrusting of a thermal-viscosity nanofluid through a resilient vertical pipe
Authors: Abumandour Ramzy M. , Eldesoky Islam M. , Kamel Mohamed H. , Ahmed Mohamed M. , Abdelsalam Sara I. 
Published: July 2020

Abstract
In the article, the effects of the thermal viscosity and magnetohydrodynamic on the peristalsis of nanofluid are analyzed. The dominant neutralization is deduced through long wavelength approximation. The analytical solution of velocity and temperature is extracted by using steady perturbation. The pressure gradient and friction forces are obtained. Numerical results are calculated and contrasted with the debated theoretical results. These results are calculated for various values of Hartmann number, variable viscosity parameter and amplitude ratio. It is observed that the pressure gradient is reduced with an increase in the thermal viscosity parameter and that the Hartmann number enhances the pressure difference.

Authors: Ng Cheng Han , Chin Yip Han , Tan Marcus Hon Qin , Ng Jun Xuan , Yang Samantha Peiling , Kiew Jolene Jiayu , Khoo Chin Meng 
Published: July 2020

Purpose:
Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is a common condition affecting people of all ages and is mainly treated with parathyroidectomy. Cinacalcet has been widely used in secondary or tertiary hyperparathyroidism, but the use of cinacalcet in PHPT is less clear.

Methods:
Searches were conducted in Medline and Embase for cinacalcet use in PHPT from induction to 10 April 2020. Articles and conferences abstracts describing the use of cinacalcet for PHPT in prospective or retrospective cohorts and randomized controlled trials restricted to English language only. We initially identified 1301 abstracts. Each article went extraction by two blinded authors on a structured proforma. Continuous outcomes were pooled with weight mean difference (WMD). Quality of included articles was assessed with Newcastle Ottwa Scale and Cochrane Risk of Bias 2.0.

Results:
Twenty-eight articles were included. Normalization rate of serum Ca levels was reported at 90% (CI: 0.82 to 0.96). Serum levels of Ca and PTH levels were significantly reduced (Ca, WMD: 1.647, CI: −1.922 to −1.371; PTH, WMD: −31.218, CI: −41.671 to −20.765) and phosphate levels significantly increased (WMD: 0.498, CI: 0.400 to 0.596) after cinacalcet therapy. The higher the baseline Ca levels, the greater Ca reduction with cinacalcet treatment. Age and gender did not modify the effect of cinacalcet on serum Ca levels.

Conclusion:
The results from the meta-analysis support the use of cinacalcet as an alternative or bridging therapy to treat hypercalcemia in people with PHPT.

Published: July 2020

The comparative analysis of atomic structure and morphology of fumed silica nanoparticles prepared under different synthesis conditions are studied using TEM, FTIR, quantum chemistry, and low-temperature nitrogen adsorption methods. It was determined that the structure of amorphous silica nanoparticles is formed by branched chain-like clusters of the length of 0.6-2.4 nm that correspond to proto-particles or nuclei of nanoparticles. A linear part of the smallest clusters is consisted of two tetrahedra SiO4 with common oxygen atom and oppositely directed vertices. The inter-tetrahedral average angle of Si ‒ O ‒ Si bonds is about 180˚. It is shown that textural porosity of fumed silica powder depends on the initial degree of aggregation of nanoparticles. The average mesopores (1 nm < R < 25 nm) volume is in the rage of 0.26-0.60 cm3∙g-1 for materials pretreated at different temperatures. It is found out that the mean mesopores radius decreases from 34 nm to 10 nm with decreasing average size of silica nanoparticles. The micropores (R < 1 nm) contribution to the total pore volumes is small for all materials (0.003-0.029 cm3∙g-1).

Tramadol and codeine are both opioids used for pain control and management but are prone to misuse and abuse despite the various side effects. This study, therefore, examined the effects of chronic exposure to Codeine and Tramadol on feeding behaviour. Twenty-Four (24) Female Albino Rats weighing between 150-200g and 4-6 weeks old, were used. They were divided into 4 experimental groups of Codeine, Tramadol, combined Codeine and Tramadol and Control groups with 6 rats in each group and exposed to 8mg/kg of codeine, 20mg/kg of tramadol, combined 8mg/kg of codeine and 20mg/kg of tramadol, and normal saline for 28 days. Records of the amount of food ingested and the bodyweight of the rats were taken daily for the duration of the experiment. Randomized block ANOVA showed a significant effect of Codeine and Tramadol on feeding behavior (F (3,641) = 25.53, p < 0.001, η2= .11), and body weight (F (3,641) = 76.67, p < 0.001, η2= .26), among the female rats. Female rats in the combined codeine and tramadol group ingested less food (x ̅=33.45), compared to codeine group alone (x ̅=40.71), tramadol group alone (x ̅=39.96) and control group (x ̅=49.38). Female rats in the combined codeine and tramadol group gained less weight (x ̅=132.67), compared to codeine group alone (x ̅=137.67), tramadol group alone (x ̅=133.33), and control group (x ̅=164.25). The mean differences were significant (p<.001). It was concluded that chronic exposure to tramadol and codeine has effects on feeding behaviour and subsequent body weight.
