A doença periodontal é uma condição inflamatória significativa que afeta os tecidos de sustentação dos dentes. Crianças e adolescentes possuem uma susceptibilidade considerável à doença, com uma alta prevalência de gengivite nessa faixa etária. A periodontite, embora menos comum, também pode ocorrer em crianças com fatores de risco específicos. Hábitos cotidianos de higiene bucal e cuidados preventivos é crucial para a prevenção. Entretanto, diversos fatores podem afetar negativamente a constância dessas práticas, como a falta de maturidade e a necessidade de supervisão parental, especialmente durante a adolescência, um período de maior influência de fatores externos como escola e amigos. O status socioeconômico (SES) desempenha um papel determinante na saúde bucal, crianças de meios desfavorecidos frequentemente enfrentam maiores barreiras ao acesso a tratamentos odontológicos e à educação sobre higiene bucal. Estudos mostram que baixa renda e escolaridade estão associadas a uma maior incidência de doenças periodontais, exacerbadas pela superlotação familiar e paternidade menos consciente. Desta forma, o presente trabalho busca analisar as causas da doença periodontal em crianças e adolescentes, relacionadas a fatores socioeconômicos, a fim de que se possa encontrar soluções que busquem equalizar o acesso à saúde bucal infantil.
Investigating the Feasibility of Xylitol and Gelatin for Controlled Release System in Drug Delivery using Calcium Alginate
Authors: Lee Sean 
Published: October 2024

Calcium Alginate-based beads have been recognized to have high potential for pharmaceutical applications thanks to their ease of use and biocompatibility. This study aims to investigate how xylitol and gelatin could be used for a controlled drug delivery system and how to manipulate such a delivery system. For the study, calcium alginate beads were synthesized using two different calcium compounds: calcium lactate (CL) and calcium chloride (CC). Varying concentrations of the calcium compounds in the beads were prepared to measure their effects on their characteristics, such as size, weight, strength, and, most importantly, the diffusion rate. The study attempted to manipulate the diffusion rates by incorporating xylitol and gelatin into the calcium alginate membrane. A comparative analysis revealed that CC and CL affected the beads differently. For instance, bead size increased with CC concentration up to 5%, after which it decreased, while CL showed a more consistent decrease in size as concentration increased. Weight generally decreased with higher concentrations of both CC and CL, but the reduction was more pronounced with CL. The popping force increased with CC concentration but had a non-linear relationship with CL, reaching around 7% concentration before decreasing. The study also examined the percentage change in weight after 48 hours of drying. For smaller beads (3mm), the weight change decreased with higher CC concentration, but for larger beads (7.05mm), the trend reversed, showing an increase in weight change at higher concentrations. Similar patterns were observed for CL, with weight change initially decreasing but increasing with higher concentrations. Our diffusion studies found that the xylitol concentration generally enhanced diffusion rates, with CL beads showing a greater initial diffusion than CC beads. In contrast, gelatin concentration has less predictable effects on diffusion rates. For CL beads, more gelatin results in less dye diffusion, suggesting that gelatin may impact the initial release of dye from the beads.

Published: October 2024

The biosynthesis of nanomaterials using phytochemicals found in plants has attracted a lot of interest and is gaining traction as a viable alternative to traditional chemical processes. In the current work, we used the aqueous leaf extract of Allium ampeloprasum (leek) as a reducing and stabilizing agent for the simple bio-fabrication of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles (NPs), owing to its alkaloids, coumarins, and flavonoids. Several methods, including, XRD, SEM, EDX, FT-IR, TEM, UV-visible spectroscopy, and TGA, were used to analyze the characteristics of the bio-fabricated ZnO-NPs. An XRD study revealed that ZnO-NPs had a monoclinic structure with a crystallite dimension of 25.75 nm. The spherical structure of ZnO-NPs is confirmed by TEM and SEM morphological pictures, and their dispersion across surfaces shows decreased agglomerations. ZnO-NPs had a significant optical absorbance in the UV area at 368 nm and a large bandgap, indicating surface oxygen vacancies and charge carriers. The existence of Zn and O elements, as well as their Zn bonds, was identified using EDX and FT-IR spectroscopy. The photodegradation of methylene blue (MB) dye was studied using UV light irradiation, with a maximum degradation efficiency of 90.13% attained after 120 minutes of irradiation. Gram-positive Gram-negative bacteria and E. coli ZnO-NPs were tested against S.ococcus aureus, which showed the maximum zone inhibition (15.01 ± 0.85 mm) compared to E. coli (13.34 ± 0.04 mm). Thus, the degradation efficiency for MB dye and the zone inhibition results for both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria indicate that the bio-fabricated ZnO-NPs from A. ampeloprasum (leek) leaves may have biological and environmental uses.

Authors: Huang Jing , Kong Xiangshuang , Li Mingzi 
Published: October 2024

Aim: This study aimed to assess the prevalence and associated factors of excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study in Beijing, China, from November 2015 to October 2016, and patients with T2DM were invited to participate. Structured questionnaires were used to collect data. EDS was assessed using the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), and anxiety and depression were assessed using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). Logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate factors associated with EDS.
Results: Of the 224 patients with T2DM, 24 (10.7%) had EDS. The proportions of anxiety, depression, and comorbid anxiety and depression were significantly different between the EDS and non-EDS groups. ESS scores, anxiety scores, and depression scores were positively correlated. Logistic regression analysis showed that mild anxiety (OR 11.055; 95% CI 2.272–53.785; P = 0.003), moderate to severe anxiety (OR 33.223; 95% CI 4.896–225.440; P < 0.001), and mild depression (OR 6.227; 95% CI 1.319–29.399; P = 0.021) were associated with EDS in patients with T2DM. These associations remained significant after adjustment for age, sex, body mass index, diabetes duration, and apnoea–hypopnoea index. In addition, the severity of obstructive sleep apnoea–hypopnoea syndrome was not significantly associated with EDS, anxiety, depression, and comorbid anxiety and depression in this study.
Conclusions: The prevalence of EDS was high in patients with T2DM, and anxiety and depression were significantly associated with EDS. When developing interventions to improve EDS in patients with T2DM, healthcare providers may need to consider interventions that target anxiety and depression.

Context.—
Sarcomas are rare and highly heterogeneous mesenchymal tumors with deceptive morphologic features that pose a challenge for precise diagnostics. Chromosomal rearrangements generating pathognomonic gene fusions are useful diagnostic markers, traditionally tested using single-plex standard of care assays with limited diagnostic yield. NanoString nCounter technology has emerged as a robust solution with multiplexing capabilities.

Objective.—
To optimize NanoString effective coverage of specific entities and conduct a validation study to support its clinical implementation.

Design.—
We reconfigured a NanoString’s codeset by including a set of probes for detecting gene fusion variants of solitary fibrous tumors, low-grade fibromyxoid sarcomas/sclerosing epithelioid fibrosarcomas, and undifferentiated small round cell sarcomas, totaling 188 probes. A technical validation study was conducted with 96 retrospective samples. Additionally, 76 prospective samples were evaluated to assess the assay’s clinical performance.

Results.—
Both technical and clinical validation studies showed that NanoString’s codeset reached &gt;88% sensitivity and 100% specificity, compared with standard of care methods, and superior diagnostic yield as a first-line test. Our design enabled the detection of almost all fusion variants of NGFI-A binding protein 2 (NAB2) with signal transducer and activator of transcription 6 (STAT6) in solitary fibrous tumors, as well as cAMP responsive element binding protein 3 like 1/2 (CREB3L1/2) rearrangements in all low-grade fibromyxoid sarcoma/sclerosing epithelioid fibrosarcoma cases. Identification of specific gene fusions of undifferentiated small round cell sarcoma was also improved, but additional strategies are necessary to attain full coverage.

Conclusions.—
The NanoString platform demonstrated good sensitivity, specificity, and superior diagnostic yield. It is a cost-effective assay with rapid turnaround time, low sample consumption, streamlined analysis, and easy customization. Therefore, it is a promising alternative first-line diagnostic tool for routine sarcoma testing.

Published: October 2024

En la región del Istmo de Tehuantepec del estado Oaxaca se dispone de gran recurso eólico. Sin embargo, existen diversas localidades donde este recurso no ha sido caracterizado de forma detallada, lo que lleva a no poder generalizarlo para la implementación de aerogeneradores. Por lo tanto, el objetivo del presente estudio es evaluar el potencial eólico en el municipio de Unión Hidalgo, Oaxaca y con ello dimensionar diferentes modelos de aerogeneradores que puedan abastecer la demanda de energía eléctrica de una vivienda del municipio, basándose principalmente en la potencia disponible, la potencia aprovechable y el consumo energético bimestral. En primer lugar, se analizaron las velocidades de los vientos mensuales y anuales a 10 m y 50 m de altura, encontrando que las mayores velocidades se presentan en los meses de noviembre, diciembre y enero, con vientos que superan los 7.82 m/s (10 m de altura) y 9.81 m/s (50 m de altura). En segundo lugar, se determinó los valores promedios anuales de la densidad de potencia a 10 m y 50 m, esto mediante dos métodos de análisis, el Método Empírico de Justus (EMJ)y el Método de Densidad (MDP). Posteriormente, se realizó una muestra de 130 hogares para determinar el consumo eléctrico bimestral promedio en el municipio de Unión Hidalgo que fue de aproximadamente 282.13 kWh. Con base a los resultados se propuso tres aerogeneradores, de los cuales se determinó que el AIR 19/100 es el mejor candidato para su implementación, obteniendo que la potencia anual por hora es igual a 11 269.75 kWh (ocupando los valores de 50m de altura). Lo anterior es favorable tanto para el aprovechamiento del potencial eólico y el abastecimiento de hogares en la región.

Published: October 2024

The rising cost of living and the increase life expectancy in Malaysians calls for a study in the preparedness of the Malaysian soon-to-be retirees as Malaysian will be a super aged nation by 2056. There is concerned on whether the current employees has enough savings for their retirements because statistics has shown that many retirees and elderlies facing dilemma of not having sufficient money to maintain and cover a comfortable retirement and medical expenses. Over time, this problem is becoming worst. Lack of financial comprehension, inadequacy of private sector workers’ EPF savings and lack of goal clarity would lead to fallacious retirement planning decisions among private sector workers. This study aims to examine the influence of financial literacy, personal attitudes, saving behaviour and goal clarity on retirement planning among workers in Malaysian private sector. This is a quantitative study and survey was used to collect data from 107 private sector workers in Kuala Lumpur. The results shows that financial literacy, personal attitude, saving behaviour and goal clarity do have significant relationship towards retirement planning among workers, however, further analysis carried out singled out goal clarity as the main predictor towards retirement planning. This finding can be beneficial to relevant agencies and bodies to address these factors to encourage an effective retirement planning among their employees so that they can enjoy their retirement years.
ЭМОЦИОНАЛЬНО-ЧУВСТВЕННЫЙ КОМПОНЕНТ ЗНАЧЕНИЯ CЛОВ РУССКОГО ЯЗЫКА В ЯЗЫКОВОМ СОЗНАНИИ ОБУЧАЮЩИХСЯ БИЛИНГВОВ
Authors: Тао Е. 
Published: October 2024

Статья посвящена проблемам выявления эмоционально-чувственной составляющей семантики слов изучаемого языка в языковом сознании обучающихся билингвов – китайских студентов, изучающих русский язык в Китае. Предлагается психолингвистический подход к семантике слова как к достоянию индивида, языковому сознанию (ментальному лексикону) билингва как динамической, не разделенной на разные языки функциональной системе. Актуальность статьи заключается в разработке проблемы выявления способов формирования семантики в сознании индивидов и шире – внутреннего содержания языка и его знаков. В работе используется анализ результатов психолингвистического эксперимента, проведенного автором по методу семантического дифференциала, стимулами для которого выступают существительные, прилагательные, глаголы и наречия, актуальные для ядра языкового сознания русских. Автор приходит к выводам о формировании семантики знаков чужого языка в сознании обучающихся билингвов как образов, отличающихся эмоциональностью. Разные показатели интенсивности, зафиксированные по разным шкалам оценки слов, зависят не от части речи, а от семантики слов, частотности их употребления в учебных текстах, а также от культурных и фоновых знаний.
The article deals with the problem of identifying the emotional and sensory components of a foreign language words semantics in the linguistic consciousness of educational bilinguals (bilingual mental lexicon) - Chinese students studying Russian in China. A psycholinguistic approach is proposed to the semantics of the word as the property of the individual, the linguistic consciousness of a bilingual as a dynamic functional system not divided into different languages. The relevance of the article lies in the development of the problem of identifying ways of forming semantics in the minds of individuals and, more broadly, the internal content of language and its signs. The work is based on the results of a psycholinguistic experiment conducted using the semantic differential method, the stimuli for which are nouns, adjectives, verbs and adverbs that are relevant to the core of the linguistic consciousness (the core of the mental lexicon) of Russians. The author comes to conclusions about the formation of the semantics of signs of a foreign language in the minds of educational bilinguals as images characterized by emotionality. Different intensity indicators recorded on different word rating scales depend not on the part of speech, but on the semantics of words, the frequency of their use in educational texts, cultural and background knowledge.
А.А. ФЕТ И А. ШОПЕНГАУЭР: ДИАЛОГ О ПЕССИМИЗМЕ, СМЕРТИ И ОДИНОЧЕСТВЕ В ХУДОЖЕСТВЕННОМ МИРЕ СБОРНИКОВ «ВЕЧЕРНИЕ ОГНИ»
Authors: Комков А.В. 
Published: October 2024

В статье представлены результаты анализа стихотворении из сборников «Вечерние огни» А.А. Фета. Актуальность данной статьи связана с не-решенной в отечественном литературоведении проблемой, проявляющейся в недостаточным уровне теоретической и практической разработанности вопросов восприятия философии монистического волюнтаризма А. Шопенгауэра в ху-дожественном мире А.А. Фета. Предметом исследования является творческая рецепция философских идей Шопенгауэра в сборниках Фета «Вечерние огни». Исследование основывается на комплексном подходе, сочетающем компаративный и системный методы. В результате анализа делается вывод о концептуальной соотносимости мотивов пессимизма, смерти и одиночества в интеллектуальном наследии немецкого мыслителя с онтологическими установками автора «Вечерних огней». Диалогические особенности фетовского восприятия немецкой некласси-ческой философии проявляются не только в поэтизированной рекон-струкции онтологических установок, но в экзистенциальном преодолении пессимистической парадигмы. Принимая за основу положение, в котором мир – есть продукт безраздельно властвующей Воли, А. Фет, тем не менее, отстаивает ценность любви к жизни, ценность личности, ценность красоты.
The article presents the results of the poems analysis from the collec-tions “Evening Lights” by A.A. Fet. The relevance of this article is related to the unre-solved problem in Russian literary criticism, which manifests itself in the insufficient level of theoretical and practical elaboration of the issues of perception of the philosophy of monistic voluntarism by A. Schopenhauer in the A.A. Fet artistic world. The sub-ject of the study is the creative reception of Schopenhauer's philosophical ideas in Fet's collection “Evening Lights”. The research is based on an integrated approach combining comparative and systematic methods. As a result of the analysis, it is concluded that the motifs of pessimism, death and loneliness in the intellectual heritage of the German thinker are conceptually correlated with the ontological attitudes of the “Evening Lights” author. The dialogical features of the Fetishist perception of German non--classical philosophy are manifested not only in the poetized reconstruction of ontologi-cal attitudes, but also in the existential overcoming of the pessimistic paradigm. Taking as a basis the position in which the world is the product of an undivided ruling Will, Fet, nevertheless, defends the value of love for life, the value of personality, the value of beauty.
