ABSTRACTObjectiveTo assess the sclerostin, β‐catenin, and tryptase expression in fibro‐osseous lesions (FOL) of the jaws.Subjects and MethodsImmunohistochemistry analysis was performed for these proteins on FOL and non‐lesional bone. The sclerostin‐positive cells were scored from 0 (no expression) to 3 (high expression).ResultsWe analyzed 46 FOL biopsies and selected 38 patients. Categorization showed 15 fibrous dysplasia (FD), eight juvenile trabecular ossifying fibroma (JTOF), two psammomatoid ossifying fibroma (PsOF), and 13 FOL. We found more sclerostin‐positive cells in fibrous tissue than in bone, showing a phenotype like mast cells with strong dot‐cytoplasmic positivity. The analysis of sclerostin‐positive cell lesions (scored as 2 and 3) showed also tryptase positivity in 80.9% of 21 biopsies. β‐catenin was diffusely expressed on the fibrous component, mostly with cytosol staining. Non‐lesional bone showed sclerostin expression in medullary spaces and a few osteocytes.ConclusionsSclerostin‐positive cells are mostly found in the fibrous tissue of FOL, and the tryptase mast cell marker was present in most of the lesions that were positive for sclerostin.

Published: December 2024

ABSTRACTBackgroundBelow adequate health literacy is common and linked to increased risk of adverse health outcomes. Supporting optimal health following kidney transplantation requires the capacity to understand health information and make decisions about care. The impact of low health literacy in the context of pediatric kidney transplant has not previously been studied.MethodsThis retrospective cohort study sought to determine the relationship between caregiver or patient health literacy and healthcare utilization (outpatient hospital visits, days in hospital) and to explore relationships between health literacy and adherence to tacrolimus (trough level coefficient of variation) and allograft function post‐transplant.ResultsForty patients were included in the analysis. 60% were identified as having adequate literacy using the Newest Vital Sign (NVS). Lower health literacy was significantly correlated with increased healthcare utilization in the first 3 months post‐transplant (rs = −0.36, p = 0.024) and in the first year post‐transplant (rs = −0.35, p = 0.029). No association was demonstrated between health literacy level and number of days admitted to the hospital (rs = −0.16, p = 0.321), adherence to tacrolimus 6–12 months post‐transplant (rs = 0.078, p = 0.68), or change in allograft function 2 years post‐transplant (rs = −0.13, p = 0.43).ConclusionLimited health literacy is common in pediatric kidney transplant recipients and families and is associated with increased frequency of hospital and outpatient clinic department visits early post‐transplant. In this small‐sized cohort, we did not identify a relationship between health literacy level and hospitalization days, allograft function, or tacrolimus adherence. Larger studies are needed to evaluate the relationship between health literacy and transplant outcomes in children and test interventions that may improve communication and optimize care.
Dark tourism in Timor‐Leste: An examination of foreign tourists' visits to the Santa Cruz cemetery and the Comarca Balide prison via analysis of Tripadvisor reviews
Authors: Rothschild Amy 
Published: December 2024

AbstractDuring the brutal Indonesian occupation of Timor‐Leste from 1975 to 1999, over 100,000 Timorese out of an estimated population of 650,000 lost their lives; thousands more suffered a range of horrific human rights violations. This paper discusses ‘dark tourism’—tourism linked with this violent past—in Timor‐Leste's post‐independence era. The paper focuses its analysis of dark tourism on two of the most well‐known tourist sites linked with the Indonesian past, both sites of former violence: the Santa Cruz cemetery and the Comarca Balide prison. It looks specifically at international tourists' experiences at the two sites. The paper contributes to debates over the morality of dark tourism, as well as to human rights and transitional justice literatures that examine how memorialisation efforts play out on the ground. It argues, among other things, that a view of dark tourism as purely amoral thrill‐seeking or voyeurism should be tempered. The case of Timor‐Leste shows us instead that dark tourism can play an important role in individuals' attempts to understand, learn more about, and otherwise make meaning out of complicated pasts of violence.

Published: December 2024

The ensuing increase in soymilk consumption has led to small-scale production of milk under household conditions, with little or no consideration of quality control measures. Local preservatives are nowadays applied to preserve many local drinks. This study determines the effect of local preservatives on improving the shelf-life of soymilk. Clean soybean seeds collected from local markets were soaked, blended, and filtered to obtain soymilk. Extracts of certain spices (garlic, ginger, and clove) were added at various concentrations, singly and in combination, coupled with pasteurization and refrigeration. Standard microbiological techniques such as the pour plate method and culturing were used to enumerate and isolate spoilage microorganisms in the sample over the test period. Results obtained showed that the combination of ginger-clove extract was more effective, it preserved the soymilk sample for 10 days. The spices could be used for a certain period to extend the shelf life of soymilk and they could also be used as an alternative source of natural antimicrobial substance in Soymilk. The microorganisms isolated from the spoiling soymilk after 10 days include Pseudomonas spp. Bacillus cereus, Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Aspergillus fumigatus, Aspergillus lentulus, Aspergillus niger, Rhizopus stolonifer and Trichosporon asahil. The isolation of these spoilage organisms after a given period implies that the preservative effect of the local spices used in this study is time dependent. The synergetic use of ginger, clove, and other local preservatives as preservatives for local drinks should be explored further and optimized.

Published: December 2024

BackgroundBedside thoracic ultrasound (US) offers numerous advantages over chest X-ray (CXR) for identification of recurrent pneumothoraces (PTX) after tube thoracostomy (TT) removal. Technologic advancements have led to the development of hand-held devices capable of producing high-quality images termed ultra-portable US (UPUS). We hypothesized that UPUS would be as successful as CXR in detecting post-TT removal PTX and would be preferred by patients.MethodsWe conducted a single-center prospective, feasibility, study at a level I trauma center investigating the use of UPUS in patients with trauma with TT placement. UPUS images were obtained daily while the TT was in place and post-TT removal (ranging from 1 through 6 hours). A clinically concerning PTX on UPUS was defined as the absence of lung sliding on two or more intercostal spaces. Poststudy Likert surveys were administered to assess patient preferences.ResultsNinety-two patients were included in the analysis. The majority were men (87%), and the median age was 47 years. Thirty-five patients (36%) had discordant imaging findings. There were 11 clinically concerning PTX, of which 10 (91%) were detected on UPUS and 8 (73%) on CXR. Three patients required an intervention for post-pull PTX, all of whom were identified on UPUS. Eighty-four percent (N=70) of surveyed patients preferred UPUS over CXR with 92% reporting no discomfort with UPUS compared with 49% with CXR.ConclusionBedside UPUS is preferred by patients and can successfully identify clinically concerning post-TT removal PTX. Implementation of UPUS as a post-TT removal diagnostic tool is a safe and effective alternative to CXR.Level of evidenceLevel II, diagnostic tests or criteria.
Conditionally accepted sampling: AB15 IO scheme with smaller deviation ratio
Authors: Chen Jiangshan , Hu Yupu , Dong Siyue 
Published: December 2024

Indistinguishable Obfuscation(IO) is a very critical cryptography primitive. It can be used to construct almost any other cryptography schemes. AB15 indistinguishability obfuscation scheme is the first practical scheme. In order to avoid the ideal generator can be searched, authors of AB15 IO scheme set it to a relatively large size (In fact, such ideal generator should be a “small prime”). It causes the ratio of the standard deviation of Gaussian sampling and the size of ideal generator smaller. We call the ratio as “deviation ratio”. In this paper, we point that direct sampling and smaller deviation ratio makes the scheme insecure. A searching attack can reveal hidden coefficients of original boolean circuit from its obfuscator. Firstly, the attacker searches those level-0 encodings of 0, hoping that the code value is 0. Such event happens with probability [Formula: see text] or [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] as the deviation ratio. By a series of searching, a weak obfuscator with prime module can be obtained. Then, the attacker can obtain all hidden coefficients of original boolean circuit. Take [Formula: see text] as the dimension of independent variable, [Formula: see text] as the dimension of coefficient of original boolean circuit. For Simple Obfuscator, searching time is [Formula: see text], and the probability that one successfully reveals hidden coefficients of original boolean circuit is about [Formula: see text]. For Robust Obfuscator, searching time and success probability are respectively [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. At last, we present a revised scheme with “conditionally accepted sampling” and smaller deviation ratio. The new scheme avoids above mentioned attack and greatly reduce the size complexity.

Cone‐Beam Computed Tomography Evaluation of the Mandibular Condyle and Articular Spaces Following Orthognathic Surgery Using Freehand Articulation Method in Patients With Class II and III Skeletal Deformity
Authors: Abbasi Amir Jalal , Azadbakht Mojtaba , Mosavat Farzaneh , Bayati Mahsa 
Published: December 2024

Objective: This study aimed to assess the changes in the position and size of articular spaces and anteroposterior and mediolateral condyle dimensions following orthognathic surgery. Additionally, it evaluated the correlation between these changes and mandibular movement during surgery.Methods: This experimental study examined 31 patients (16 with Class III and 15 with Class II malocclusions) who were candidates for orthognathic surgery. Bimaxillary orthognathic surgery was performed on 23 patients, while monomaxillary orthognathic surgery (mandible) was performed on 8 patients. Condyle positioning was achieved using the classic method. In pre‐ and postsurgical cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans, the anteroposterior and mediolateral dimensions of the condyle and spaces and the intercondylar angle were measured. The results were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed‐rank test, with a p‐value of less than 0.05 considered significant.Results: The medial and lateral condyle dimensions and the upper articular space did not change significantly after orthognathic surgery in both Class II and III groups. However, the posterior articular space dimensions showed a statistically significant reduction in both groups. Although the anterior articular space dimensions increased in both groups, this increase was significant only in the Class II group. Additionally, there was a significant relationship between the extent of mandibular advancement or setback and changes in both groups’ anterior and posterior articular space dimensions and the upper articular space dimensions in the Class II group.Conclusion: The classic method for condyle positioning is a suitable approach for orthognathic surgery. The most notable changes were observed in the anterior and posterior articular spaces, likely due to the backward force applied to the proximal part during the fixation stage. According to the evaluations and Spearman’s rho, the likelihood of changes in anterior and posterior articular space dimensions increases with more significant advancement and setback.
Social Representation, Stereotypes and Social Identity Pertaining to Nursing Through Children’s Drawings: A Qualitative Study
Authors: García-Navarro E. Begoña , Cáceres Titos María José , Pascual Iván Rodríguez 
Published: December 2024

Aim: The aim of this study is to explore children’s depictions of nursing professionals, identifying shared and differential visual and symbolic elements as a function of gender, the period during which the drawing was made (pre‐/postpandemic) and whether or not one has a relative who works in the same profession.Background: Drawing circumnavigates the limits imposed by literacy and gives a voice to children who are able to express their personal feelings and subconscious through the drawn object. Theories of social representations and identity strive to explore the way in which children perceive and value the role of nurses in society.Methods: With the question, ‘what is nursing to you?’ providing the foundation, qualitative visual analysis was performed based on bottom‐up inductive logic, analysing 105 drawings through the software CAQDAS Atlas‐ti.Results: Nine categories emerged that corresponded to uniform, typically used tools, represented functions, decorative elements, associated individuals, work setting and facial expression. Differences were identified as a function of the gender of the child respondent, familiarity with the profession and the period during which the drawing was made (pre‐/postpandemic).Conclusion: The present research strives to contribute towards understanding of perceptions of nursing figures in the symbolic world of children, taking a more complete look at the view children have of nursing and the way in which they conceive and value healthcare and caring for health.
John Dewey’s Educational Philosophy and Experience for Current Vietnamese Education
Authors: Pham Kien Thi 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
The 4.0 industrial revolution, driven by advancements in artificial intelligence, demands that people innovate their thinking, acquire new experiences, and adapt to emerging professions. Consequently, countries are actively reforming their education systems to cultivate creative capacities and foster adaptability to innovation. Educational programs must provide learners with new professional experiences and ensure equal access to education. John Dewey articulated these principles in his educational philosophy. Today, Dewey’s philosophy and pragmatism continue to influence global education profoundly. However, the international context requires countries to develop educational philosophies aligned with worldwide educational goals. This article employs the dialectical materialist method, incorporating comprehensive and historical principles, to argue that education should focus on learners’ experiences and foster democratic education. The study emphasizes Dewey’s focus on practical applications, student engagement, and social responsibility as vital for educational reform. In Vietnam, educational reform based on Dewey’s principles is essential for improving educational quality, meeting labor market demands, and promoting well-rounded individuals who can contribute to socioeconomic progress. The study suggests that integrating Dewey’s educational philosophy can significantly enhance Vietnam’s efforts to modernize its education system and address contemporary needs.
Weaving Words: Ways of Picturing al-Tanūḫī’s Stories
Authors: Bray Julia 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
Bilal Orfali and Enass Khansa have chosen twenty-one pieces from al-Tanūḫī’s Nišwār al-muḥāḍara and al-Faraǧ baʿd al-šidda as part of a new Library of Arabic Literature series for young readers, with pictures by Jana Traboulsi which are in marked contrast to Orientalist 1001 Nights illustrations. The editors’ aim is to recast the stories’ literary aesthetics visually and develop the readers’ imagination by inviting them to think about how the stories explore space and place rather than about plot and characterisation. To mark the fact that this is first time al-Tanūḫī has been illustrated, I compare the editors’ conceptual framing of their anthology, together with a selection of Traboulsi’s illustrations, with my own perception, as the anthology’s English translator, of visual and spatial focal points in the stories. I start by explaining my own point of critical reference, functional visualisation, through an analysis of a story not included in the anthology, and conclude with a brief discussion of factual cultural content in the stories.
Arabe écrit ḥirḏawn = Arabe parlé (palestinien ?) hardun [ḥardūn] = Lacerta/Laudakia stellio : une équivalence trompeuse ?
Authors: Bettini Lidia 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
The aim of this article is to examine whether it is legitimate to say, as is generally believed, that the reptile referred to in medieval Arabic texts as the ḥirḏawn is identical with the reptile known today by the zoonym of Palestinian origin Hardun, which in turn is identified with the Laudakia stellio. To this end, the article examines many medieval Arabic sources dealing with the ḥirḏawn and, at the same time, the circumstances in which the zoonym Hardun was born.
Cast Down Your Bucket on the Mountaintop
Authors: Parker Kai 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
Both scholarship and popular understanding conceptualize Booker T. Washington’s acquiescence to Jim Crow as the foil of the African American struggle for civil rights. However, this article argues that Bookerism was in fact integral to the civil rights movement because it facilitated the incorporation of the caste ideologies of Mohandas K. Gandhi and American academic sociology into the thought of Howard Thurman and Martin Luther King, Jr. Gandhi and sociology utilized Bookerism to idealize caste hierarchy. Although Thurman and King identified with the plight of Dalits in India, their nonviolent desegregationist religious thought reworked sociological and Gandhian notions of caste.

Published: December 2024

Objectives: In the United States, firearm injuries disproportionately occur in low-income communities and among racial and ethnic minority populations. Recognizing these patterns across social conditions is vital for effective public health interventions. Using timely and localized data, we examined the association between social vulnerability and firearm injuries in King County, Washington. Methods: For this ecological, cross-sectional study, we used health reporting areas (HRAs) (n = 61), a subcounty geography of King County. We obtained HRA-level counts of firearm injuries by using responses from King County emergency medical services (EMS) from 2019 through 2023. We measured HRA-level social vulnerability by using the Social Vulnerability Index (SVI) from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention/Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry, categorized into tertiles (low, moderate, and high SVI). We used bivariate choropleth mapping to illustrate spatial associations between SVI and rates of firearm injuries per 10 000 residents. We used Bayesian spatial negative binomial regression to quantify the strength of these associations. Results: Bivariate choropleth mapping showed a correlation between SVI and rates of firearm injuries. In spatial models, HRAs categorized as high SVI had a 3 times higher rate of firearm injuries than HRAs categorized as low SVI (incidence rate ratio = 3.01; 95% credible interval, 2.02-4.47). Rates of firearm injuries were also higher in HRAs categorized as moderate versus low SVI (incidence rate ratio = 1.72; 95% credible interval, 1.23-2.40). Conclusion: In King County, areas with high social vulnerability had high rates of EMS responses to firearm injuries. SVI can help identify geographic areas for intervention and provide a framework for identifying upstream factors that might contribute to spatial disparities in firearm injuries.
