Abstract
We perform a comprehensive timing and broadband spectral analysis using an AstroSat observation of the low-mass black hole X-ray binary H 1743–322 during its 2017 outburst. Additionally, we use two Swift/XRT observations, one of which is simultaneous with AstroSat and the other taken three days earlier, for timing analysis. The hardness–intensity diagram indicates that the 2017 outburst was a failed one, unlike the previous successful outburst in 2016. We detect type C quasi-periodic oscillation (QPO) in the simultaneous AstroSat and Swift/XRT observations at ∼0.4 Hz, whereas an upper harmonic is noticed at ∼0.9 Hz in the AstroSat data only. Although these features are found to be energy-independent, we notice a shift of ∼0.08 Hz in the QPO frequency over the interval of three days. We also investigate the nature of variability in the two consecutive failed outbursts in 2017 and 2018. We detect soft time lags of 23.2 ± 12.2 ms and 140 ± 80 ms at the type C QPO frequencies in 2017 AstroSat and 2018 XMM-Newton data, respectively. The lag–energy spectra from both the outbursts suggest that the soft lags may be associated with reflection features. The broadband spectral analysis indicates that the source was in the low/hard state during the AstroSat observation. Modeling of the disk and reflection continuum suggests the presence of an accretion disk that is significantly truncated by at least 27.4r
g from the innermost stable circular orbit when the source luminosity is ∼1.6% of the Eddington luminosity.

Abstract
Magnetic holes (MHs) are transient magnetic structures responsible for energy conversion in space plasma. Using single-spacecraft measurements from Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN (MAVEN), the existence of MHs on Mars has been confirmed. However, due to the limitations of single-spacecraft observations, significant uncertainty also arises on the identification of the spatial scale and 3D geometry of MHs. In this study, we report a series of MHs successively detected by Tianwen-1 near the high-latitude magnetopause and by the MAVEN spacecraft near the subsolar magnetopause. The large separation between Tianwen-1 and MAVEN (∼4 R
M) suggests these MHs are macroscale structures extending along the axial direction. Additionally, we observe whistler waves generated by electron perpendicular anisotropy in one of the macroscale MHs. This study is the first joint observation of Martian MHs, shedding light on the research of transient magnetic structures on Mars.
Phenotypic Variation of Wittrockia cyathiformis (Bromeliaceae) Across Life Forms and Forest Types in the Atlantic Rainforest
Authors: Grzebielucka Kamila , Nuvoloni Felipe Micali , Tardivo Rosângela Capuano 
Published: October 2024

Background and aims &ndash; This study investigates the phenotypic plasticity of Wittrockia cyathiformis (Bromeliaceae), an endemic species of the Atlantic Rainforest, with the aim of evaluating its morphological variation in relation to different life forms and forest types, specifically Dense Ombrophilous Forest and Mixed Ombrophilous Forest.
Material and methods &ndash; Field collections were conducted in State Conservation Units and Campos Gerais National Park in Paran&aacute; during 2022 and 2023. We measured vegetative morphometric parameters of six to eight bromeliads for each life form (epiphytic, rupicolous, and terrestrial) in each forest type, totaling 43 specimens, with 22 from Dense Ombrophilous Forest and 21 from Mixed Ombrophilous Forest. Additionally, we assessed the regional conservation status of the species in Paran&aacute;.
Key results &ndash; The life forms of the plant did not result in significant phenotypic variations, except for the length of the leaf sheath, which was greater in epiphytes. However, W. cyathiformis exhibits distinct phenotypic patterns according to forest types, influenced by specific bioclimatic and environmental conditions. Bromeliads in Dense Ombrophilous Forest display characteristics typical of species in warm and humid environments, while in Mixed Ombrophilous Forest, the leaves are narrower with smaller spines.
Conclusion &ndash; The different life forms of this bromeliad do not lead to significant morphometric changes; however, phenotypic plasticity is observed among forest types, which may aid the species in adapting to varying environmental conditions. Although W. cyathiformis is classified as Least Concern (LC) in its regional conservation status due to its wide distribution, ongoing habitat loss and fragmentation in the Atlantic Forest necessitate conservation measures to ensure the long-term survival of its populations, as anthropogenic activities induce changes at a pace that may be incompatible with the species&#39; evolutionary adaptations.
La prépondérance du clergé catholique dans la société haïtienne au cours de la seconde moitié du xixe siècle
Authors: François Mickenson 
Published: October 2024

À partir de la signature du concordat de 1860, le clergé catholique, composé en grande partie par des ecclésiastiques d’origine bretonne, exerce une influence considérable en Haïti pendant toute la seconde moitié du xixe siècle. Contrairement à la France, où l’adoption de lois laïques entraîne un déclin de l’influence de l’institution cléricale, en Haïti, cette institution s’efforce de préserver la morale catholique face à la croissance de la communauté protestante et aux idées anticléricales. Les ecclésiastiques imposent le catéchisme dans les écoles publiques haïtiennes, s’opposent au vodou et promeuvent le mariage religieux. Cependant, à la fin du xixe et au début du xxe siècle bien que des lois laïques ne soient pas adoptées en Haïti, l’Église voit progressivement diminuer son influence au profit de la communauté protestante, ceci en raison de l’influence croissante des États-Unis et du début de l’affirmation d’une certaine « haïtianité ». Cette quête de l’identité haïtienne sera désormais au cœur des travaux de recherche portant sur la première moitié du xxe siècle haïtien.
Kierkegaard à l’écoute de la nature
Authors: Delage Armande 
Published: October 2024

À partir de la lecture des Discours de 1847 et de 1849 sur le lis des champs et l’oiseau du ciel ainsi que d’extraits des Journaux et Cahiers de Notes courant de 1835 à 1854, l’article entend préciser le rapport que Søren Kierkegaard conçoit entre l’individu et la nature. Si la nature est parfois décrite avec un certain lyrisme, le propos de Kierkegaard s’éloigne toutefois des penseurs romantiques : la nature en effet n’est comprise qu’à partir d’un rapport intérieur et premier à Dieu, qui doit faire voir, dans le silence et la solitude, ce monde du vivant traversé par l’obéissance et la nécessité. À cet égard, c’est le discours de l’Évangile – qui s’oppose au discours du poète, à celui du physicien et, plus généralement, à la parole trop souvent vaine et bavarde de l’être humain – qui aide l’individu à entendre la nature et l’accord divin qu’elle recèle. La nature se révèle ainsi au sein d’un rapport dialectique entre le silence et la parole, la solitude et l’altérité, comme le lieu d’une possible constitution de soi devant Dieu.
L’Année du lièvre : le bonheur de la solitude dans les forêts de la Finlande
Authors: Seppälä Jaakko 
Published: October 2024

Le retrait hors de la ville dans un environnement nature paisible est un thème souvent abordé dans l’art et la littérature des pays nordiques. Il s’accompagne fréquemment de la recherche d’une solitude volontaire considérée comme l’antidote authentique au stress, à l’aliénation et à la corruption associés à la vie urbaine moderne. L’isolement reste cependant un défi majeur des sociétés des pays nordiques. L’article analyse cette problématique dans le film L’Année du lièvre (Jäniksen vuosi, 1977) du réalisateur finlandais Risto Jarva, figure de proue de la nouvelle vague de son pays qui a adapté sur l’écran le roman à succès d’Arto Paasilinna connu en France sous le titre Le lièvre de Vatanen.
A Corpus Study of Dyslexic University Students’ L2 Writing Processes
Authors: Radar Laurie , Gilquin Gaëtanelle 
Published: October 2024

Second/foreign language (L2) writing is a critical skill for university students, and one that has attracted a great deal of attention in the literature on academic writing. Yet, one aspect that has received relatively less attention so far is the writing processes of language learners with dyslexia in this context. This study investigates the L2 writing processes of high-functioning dyslexic university students compared to their non-dyslexic counterparts, focusing on pausing and revision behaviours. The data come from a learner corpus representing the writing processes in addition to the written products. The participants are French-speaking learners of English who wrote two texts in English while keystroke logging technology captured their writing processes in real time. The analysis of the data reveals that dyslexic learners exhibit longer overall pausing time and more frequent pauses within words than the control group, indicating potential challenges with word-level processing in L2. They also exhibit longer overall revision time as well as longer mean revision duration than non‑dyslexic learners. Qualitative analysis reveals differences in editing approaches. While dyslexic learners engage in a non-linear editing process, non‑dyslexic learners follow a more linear process. These findings may be indicative of the heavy cognitive load that dyslexic students arguably experience when managing writing processes in L2 contexts.
Restaurants et plateformes de livraison : une approche comparative des stratégies des restaurants traditionnels et rapides
Authors: Lebayle Sterenn 
Published: October 2024

Cet article s’intéresse aux relations entre restaurants et plateformes de livraison. Sur la base d’une enquête qualitative, il met en évidence deux stratégies d’intégration de la livraison par les restaurateurs. D’une part, les restaurants traditionnels adoptent une stratégie opportuniste qui se caractérise par l’absence d’investissements destinés à soutenir la livraison, des volumes limités par les capacités de production disponibles, mais une tolérance à un niveau élevé de commissions. D’autre part, les restaurants rapides adoptent une stratégie plus volontariste, qui se caractérise par des volumes de production plus importants mais une moindre tolérance aux commissions, reportées sur les consommateurs et dont le niveau est étroitement négocié avec les plateformes.Classification JEL : L22, L83, L87.

Authors: Rukadikar Charushila , Saiyad Shaista , Mahajan Neeraj , Gupta Sangeeta , Das Arani , Gangwar Anil , Singh Avinash , Rukadikar Atul 
Published: October 2024

Background:
The development of practical skills is crucial in medical education, with various teaching-learning (T/L) methods such as Demonstration-Observation-Assistance-Performance (DOAP), Peyton’s four-step approach, and See One Do One Teach One (SO-DO-TO) being employed to enhance students’ competencies in handling medical devices.

Objective:
This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of DOAP, Peyton’s approach and SO-DO-TO methods on skill performance of 1st-year MBBS students in using a sphygmomanometer, audiometer, and electrocardiogram (ECG).

Methodology:
A cross-sectional study was conducted among 126 1st-year MBBS students, who were randomly divided into three groups (n = 42). Each group was trained using one of the three T/L methods on specified competencies. Skill acquisition was assessed through an Objective Structured Practical Examination (OSPE), and perceptions were gauged through a Likert Scale questionnaire.

Results:
Students trained using Peyton’s method scored the highest in OSPE with a mean score of 7.35 (standard deviation [SD] = 2.19), compared to 5.72 (SD = 1.62) for DOAP and 5.83 (SD = 1.37) for SO-DO-TO. The differences in scores were statistically significant (P < 0.01) between the groups. Perception data indicated that both students and faculty rated Peyton’s method highest in overall satisfaction, effectiveness, and comfort, despite its slightly higher time consumption.

Conclusion:
Peyton’s four-step approach significantly enhances medical students’ skill acquisition and satisfaction compared to DOAP and SO-DO-TO methods. Integrating multiple teaching strategies, as seen in Peyton’s method, can offer a more comprehensive and effective learning experience. Future studies should investigate the long-term impacts and applicability of these methods across various medical disciplines.
Combination of peritoneal flap and buccal mucosa graft vaginoplasty after vaginectomy due to recurrent planocellular vaginal cancer
Authors: Saratlija Žana , Gotovac Ante , Duvnjak Mario , Bačić Boris 
Published: October 2024

ABSTRACT
Primary vaginal cancer is rare, and the optimal approach has not yet been determined. First-line treatment can be radiotherapy or surgery. Surgical treatment is often mutilating and it requires reconstructive surgery. There are many vaginal reconstructive techniques, but none of them showed unequivocal superiority. A 40-year-old woman with planocellular vaginal carcinoma grade I underwent surgical excision of tumor combined with adjuvant radiotherapy. A year after the provided therapy, she experienced a local relapse of vaginal carcinoma. A multidisciplinary team for gynecological tumors once again suggested surgical treatment. Fallopian tubes, uterus, and vagina were removed laparoscopically, and the reconstruction was made using the combination of peritoneal flap and buccal mucosa graft (BMG). To our knowledge, this is the first case describing a combination of peritoneal flap and BMG for the creation of neovagina after total vaginectomy. It can be one of the reconstructive options when the peritoneal flap itself is not enough to cover the entire defect.

Published: October 2024

Abstract
The global oral healthcare system faces significant challenges, including disparities in access to services and facilities along with a widespread lack of awareness about different preventive measures. The phrase “social media” describes a wide range of online platforms and software that let users interact, share, communicate, and explore. A sizable number of people now use social media applications. It has long been used to increase public awareness of general health issues. It has also gained acceptance in the dental sector in the last few years. It has been widely used as a tool for teledentistry and to disseminate oral health knowledge and information. This study emphasizes different digital media tools that can raise comprehensive oral health knowledge and the benefits and drawbacks of doing so along with discussing the significance of social media in endorsing oral health awareness among the population.

Abstract

Background:
Pakistan’s collaboration with the World Diabetes Foundation (WDF) introduced a pioneering and unparalleled initiative to enhance maternal and child healthcare. The mass media campaign for the detection of hyperglycemia in pregnancy (HIP) via screening, management, and prevention is a significant component of this collaboration to reduce the impact of hyperglycemia on maternal-fetal health and have insight on postpartum follow-up (PPFU) trends.

Materials and Methods:
WDF-GDM Project encompassed an extensive mass media campaign across 29 cities in 10 regions of Pakistan. The primary objective was to establish a national standard for screening and diagnostic standards of HIP, training healthcare providers in blood glucose (BG) screening, treatment, PPFU, as well as disseminating information about pre-conception counseling. The DIPSI method, which is a single-step, non-fasting oral glucose tolerance test with a diagnostic threshold of 140 mg/dL (7.8 mmol/L), was employed as a screening and diagnostic test.

Results:
A total of 17,392 pregnant women of diverse ethnic backgrounds attended antenatal visits; 77.2% (n = 13,417) underwent BG screening based on DIPSI criteria, irrespective of the period of gestation. The overall prevalence of HIP was 35.7% with gestationally impaired glucose tolerance at 25.7%, and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) at 9.97% postpartum, approximately 4767 women were eligible for PPFU. Among these, 7% experienced fetal loss. Of the 2376 women who completed PPFU, 81% were normoglycemic, 9% had impaired fasting glucose, 8% had impaired glucose tolerance, and 2% were diagnosed with diabetes. About 75% of women who had hyperglycemia during pregnancy reverted to normoglycemia postpartum, while a small percentage continued to have persistent diabetes.

Conclusion:
This study highlights a GDM prevalence of 9.97% in Pakistan and depicts the positive outcome where many women returned to normoglycemia after childbirth. Factors such as previous pregnancies, body mass index, and history of fetal loss were identified as contributors to the development of hyperglycemia during pregnancy. The WDF-GDM initiative’s approach and comprehensive methodology provide better insights for future maternal healthcare strategies in similar settings nationally and globally.
Unveiling the Veil of Cognitive Bias in Forensic Medicine Decisions
Authors: Al-Saif Dalia Mohammed 
Published: October 2024

Abstract
The practice of forensic medicine and pathology, as other specialties that are based on cognitive abilities, is greatly impacted by cognitive bias. In this article, the effects of cognitive bias on forensic pathologists are emphasized with a particular focus on how opinions on different parts of death report might be distorted by irrelevant information, including the circumstances of death. The forensic professionals are encouraged to use structured methods for making decisions that give weight to medically pertinent data and reduce the impact of unimportant background information. The article promotes the development of frameworks for policies and training programs that lessen cognitive bias in the hope of improving the objectivity and dependability of forensic findings. Reducing cognitive bias in forensic medicine is essential for maintaining the credibility of forensic science as well as for ensuring that people are treated fairly in the legal system.

Human dependence, on the plants grown on soil and the threat posed by contaminated soil to the ecosystem and general public has become a source of concern. The health risks caused by heavy metals concentration to the study area were evaluated. Fifteen (15) plant samples and soil samples each from the study area were collected and analyzed using an Energy Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence Spectroscopy (EDXRF) for Lead (Pb), Cadmium (Cd), Chromium (Cr), Nickel (Ni), Copper (Cu), and Zinc (Zn). The Measured concentrations of these heavy metals were in the order of Cd>Ni>Cu>Zn>Pb>Cr for the plant samples and Cr>Cd>Ni>Cu>Pb for soil samples with Cd and Cr as the highest contributors to cancer risk in term of the carcinogenic risk estimate. The Health Hazard Index value for all pathways were found to be 7.34 x 10-1 making non-carcinogenic risk component less significant to the adult population and in case of children, the Hazard Index value was 1.21, a value greater than unity (1), which present a severe non-carcinogenic risk component to children living in the study area. The carcinogenic risk was found to be 8.68 x 10-6 implying that 1 person in every 5882 adults may be affected and 1 in 2725 children may be affected (9.6 x 10-5) These carcinogenic risk values were both higher than acceptable values.
Glaucoma detection using hybrid machine learning techniques
Authors: Jauro Suleiman Salihu , Ali Sulaiman Yusuf , Ahmed Muhammed Kabir 
Published: October 2024

An eye disease called glaucoma can cause irreversible blindness if left undetected and not properly managed. The major challenge is that glaucoma often has no symptoms in its early stages, making it hard to detect using traditional testing methods like eye pressure measurements and eye exams. Several techniques for Glaucoma detection encountered difficulties due to a short training dataset, resulting in overfitting and under fitting problems. A hybrid machine learning approach based on CNN-SVM for detection of Glaucoma was proposed. Initially images taken from glaucoma dataset were preprocessed using standard scalar, then the preprocessed images are fed into CNN for transformation into high level features, the extracted features are subsequently passed onto an SVM classifier to distinguish between normal and glaucomatous conditions. Experimental results for the proposed CNN-SVM offers an accuracy, precision, recall and F1-score of 100% demonstrating its superiority over other existing techniques such as SVM which has accuracy, precision, recall and F1-score of 93%, 92%, 90% and 94% respectively and CNN with the accuracy, precision, recall and F1- score of 95%, 99%, 88% and 90% respectively. The integration of CNN and SVM presents a promising framework for automated Glaucoma detection, offering significant potential for real-world clinical applications.
