Introducing ART: A new method for testing auditory memory with circular reproduction tasks
Authors: Karabay Aytaç , Nijenkamp Rob , Sarampalis Anastasios , Fougnie Daryl 
Published: September 2024

AbstractTheories of visual working memory have seen significant progress through the use of continuous reproduction tasks. However, these tasks have mainly focused on studying visual features, with limited examples existing in the auditory domain. Therefore, it is unknown to what extent newly developed memory models reflect domain-general limitations or are specific to the visual domain. To address this gap, we developed a novel methodology: the Auditory Reproduction Task (ART). This task utilizes Shepard tones, which create an infinite rising or falling tone illusion by dissecting pitch chroma and height, to create a 1–360° auditory circular space. In Experiment 1, we validated the perceptual circularity and uniformity of this auditory stimulus space. In Experiment 2, we demonstrated that auditory working memory shows similar set size effects to visual working memory—report error increased at a set size of 2 relative to 1, caused by swap errors. In Experiment 3, we tested the validity of ART by correlating reproduction errors with commonly used auditory and visual working memory tasks. Analyses revealed that ART errors were significantly correlated with performance in both auditory and visual working memory tasks, albeit with a stronger correlation observed with auditory working memory. While these experiments have only scratched the surface of the theoretical and computational constraints on auditory working memory, they provide a valuable proof of concept for ART. Further research with ART has the potential to deepen our understanding of auditory working memory, as well as to explore the extent to which existing models are tapping into domain-general constraints.
HeLP: The Hebrew Lexicon project
Authors: Stein Roni , Frost Ram , Siegelman Noam 
Published: September 2024

AbstractLexicon projects (LPs) are large-scale data resources in different languages that present behavioral results from visual word recognition tasks. Analyses using LP data in multiple languages provide evidence regarding cross-linguistic differences as well as similarities in visual word recognition. Here we present the first LP in a Semitic language—the Hebrew Lexicon Project (HeLP). HeLP assembled lexical decision (LD) responses to 10,000 Hebrew words and nonwords, and naming responses to a subset of 5000 Hebrew words. We used the large-scale HeLP data to estimate the impact of general predictors (lexicality, frequency, word length, orthographic neighborhood density), and Hebrew-specific predictors (Semitic structure, presence of clitics, phonological entropy) of visual word recognition performance. Our results revealed the typical effects of lexicality and frequency obtained in many languages, but more complex impact of word length and neighborhood density. Considering Hebrew-specific characteristics, HeLP data revealed better recognition of words with a Semitic structure than words that do not conform to it, and a drop in performance for words comprising clitics. These effects varied, however, across LD and naming tasks. Lastly, a significant inhibitory effect of phonological ambiguity was found in both naming and LD. The implications of these findings for understanding reading in a Semitic language are discussed.

Authors: Mongale Collin O. , Venter Jan C. 
Published: September 2024

Background: Political violence continues to be a key feature of political life in South Africa. This violence seems to occur predominantly in the controversial KwaZulu-Natal province. Political violence that was seen during the early 1990s between the African National Congress (ANC) and the Inkatha Freedom Party (IFP) is seen today between members of the ANC and their opposition, such as Congress of the People (COPE), and apolitical organisations such as Ubunye bamaHoistela (UbH).Aim: To analyse the nexus of political violence, patronage networks and criminality in the administration of Glebelends hostels and their effects on human security. The article relies on human security perspective to tease out the human security effects stemming from political violence, patronage networks and criminality.Methods: The article adopted a qualitative literature assessment.Results: Political violence, patronage networks and criminality in the administration of Glebelands hostels have resulted into human security crisis in Glebelands such as murders, physical attacks unemployment, poverty and post-traumatic disorder.Conclusion: The prevalence of political violence, patronage networks and crime has posed a threat to human (in) security for residents of Glebelands hostels.Contribution: The current government, which is responsible for administering the hostels, should create a safer living space for the residents of Glebelands. These could be attained if the ruling party eradicates corrupt practices from its administration of the hostel, which often impede the provision of decent services to its constituents. The allocation of hostel rooms and jobs opportunities should be done in a holistic manner.

Published: September 2024

ABSTRACT

Aim:
To evaluate the propagation of preexisting dentinal microcracks after instrumentation with ProTaper Universal (PTU), ProTaper Gold (PTG), Twisted File Adaptive (TFA), and Reciproc Blue (RB) instruments by micro-CT imaging.

Methods:
The mesial roots of 60 mature human mandibular molars were cut out approximately 10 mm from the apex. The roots were then divided randomly into four groups (n = 15) based on file system used: PTU, PTG, TFA, and RB. Before and after canal shaping, roots were scanned with micro-CT. The preinstrumentation cross-sectional slices were examined to ascertain the presence of preexisting dentinal microcracks in apical 10 mm of radicular dentine. Postinstrumentation, the extension of preexisting dentinal microcracks was assessed and compared with corresponding preinstrumentation image to determine the grade of propagation. Postinstrumentation, the propagation of preexisting dentinal microcracks were categorized into three grades: nonpropagated dentinal microcracks (Grade 1), incomplete propagation (Grade 2), and complete propagation (Grade 3).

Results:
The PTU system showed a significantly higher propagation of preexisting dentinal microcracks compared to PTG, TFA, and RB system (P ≤ 0.05). All the instrumentation systems showed propagation of preexisting dentinal microcracks into Grade 2 cracks. Grade 3 propagation was seen in PTU, PTG, and RB systems. The number of Grade 2 dentinal microcracks were significantly higher than Grade 1 dentinal microcracks for the PTU system (P ≤ 0.05).

Conclusion:
Root canal instrumentation promotes propagation of preexisting dentinal microcracks. As compared to conventional nickel-titanium file systems, reciprocating and thermally treated file systems may less likely result in propagation of dentinal microcracks.

Published: September 2024

Background:
In India, there is an unequal distribution of eye health care, and tele-ophthalmology promises to be a potential tool to provide accessible, affordable, and good-quality health care to the population residing in the rural and remote areas of our country.

Aims:
The aim of the study was to study the accuracy of smartphone imaging versus clinical examination in the diagnosis of ocular disorders at a rural-based hospital.

Setting and Design:
A hospital-based descriptive study was conducted for 18 months. The study was carried out in the outpatient department (OPD) of ophthalmology at a rural health training center (RHTC), attached to a tertiary care hospital.

Materials and Methods:
Inclusion-A routine examination was carried out in the ophthalmology OPD at the RHTC. The off-site assessment was done based on the smartphone camera (iPhone Xs Max) images and videos captured on-site, which were remotely shared with two independent blinded observers to make the diagnosis which was compared with the clinical (on-site) diagnosis.

Statistical Analysis:
The agreement between the expert’s finding and the clinical examination finding was determined using Light’s Kappa coefficient. Accuracy of the photographic method was carried out in terms of sensitivity and specificity, considering clinical findings as the gold standard.

Results and Conclusion:
The diagnostic accuracy of smartphone imaging was the highest for the diagnosis of cataracts, followed by anterior segment conditions. The clinical diagnosis and smartphone imaging agreement were almost perfect for anterior segment disorders, while it was moderate for glaucoma and other disc pathologies.

Authors: Dave Bhavna Haresh , Lalwani Yash Manoj , Shah Charmi Haresh , Shah Lipsa S. 
Published: September 2024

ABSTRACT

Background:
Children’s fear and distress in dental settings often lead to anxiety and behavior issues. This study delves into why some children experience dental anxiety, whereas others do not, attributing differences to child-rearing and personality traits. Emotional intelligence (EQ), the ability to comprehend, generate, and manage emotions, is explored as a factor influencing a child’s dental experience. This novel intelligence theory accommodates the intricacies of human–environment interactions.

Aim:
The study aimed to investigate the relationship between EQ and a child’s dental anxiety, fear, and behavior in children aged 8–12 years.

Materials and Methods:
The Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire-Child Short Form, specifically developed for children aged between 8 and 12 years, was used among 100 participants reporting to the department outpatient department. The Frankl’s Behavior Rating Scale, Modified Child Dental Anxiety Scale, and Children’s Fear Survey Schedule-Dental Subscale were used to evaluate behavior, anxiety, and fear, respectively.

Results:
Results show a positive correlation between EQ and dental behavior (P = 0.002) whereas a negative correlation between EQ and dental anxiety and fear (P < 0.001).

Conclusion:
This study sheds light on the intricate interplay between emotional intelligence, dental behavior, anxiety, and fear among children. By recognizing the impact of EQ, dental practitioners could adopt personalized strategies to alleviate anxiety and enhance cooperation, improving overall dental experiences for young patients.
Examination of the Relationship Between Depressive Mood Level and Attentional Bias
Authors: Öksüz Özdemir Nazende Ceren 
Published: September 2024

Summary:
Attention is defined as the cognitive process to detect a particular internal or external stimulus, and maintaining focus are closely related to mood. The orientation of the attention resource (Attention allocation) is shaped by the mood of the person. Focusing more on negative and threatening stimuli than neutral and/or positive stimuli in the outside world is called “Attentional Bias”. This article emphasizes that attentional bias is linked with the level of depressive mood state, between a low level of depressive mood and a high level of depression.

Aim:
This research aimed to examine if there is an attentional bias toward negative stimuli among individuals with depressive symptoms.

Materials and Methods:
The Hamilton Depression Rating Scale and the Point Locating Task were administered to the participants. The research consists of a sample of 90 undergraduate and graduate students selected by random sampling method.

Results:
Based on the research findings, there is a positive and significant relationship between the level of depression and attentional orientation. The result of the study indicated that there is a significant negative relationship between depression scores and attentional orientation. When the attentional bias of the participants was examined according to their depression levels, it was found that the attentional bias of the participants with moderate depression symptoms was significantly higher than those without depression symptoms.

Conclusion:
These results indicated that relationship between attentional bias and depression level. Further studies are needed to examine depression levels and attentional bias levels in a larger sample size.
The Usage of Constrained Independent Component Analysis to Reduce Electrode Displacement Effects in Real-Time Surface Electromyography-Based Hand Gesture Classifications
Authors: Baspinar Ulvi , Tastan Yahya , Varol Huseyin Selcuk 
Published: September 2024

Aim:
In real-time control of prosthesis, orthosis, and human–computer interface applications, the displacement of surface electrodes may cause a total disruption or a decline in the classification rates. In this study, a constrained independent component analysis (cICA) was used as an alternative method for addressing the displacement problem of surface electrodes.

Materials and Methods:
The study was tested by classifying six-hand gestures offline and in real-time to control a robotic arm. The robotic arm has five degrees of freedom, and it was controlled using surface electromyography (sEMG) signals. The classification of sEMG signals is realized using artificial neural networks. cICA algorithm was utilized to improve the performance of classifiers due to the negative effect of electrode displacement issues.

Results:
In the study, the classification results of the cICA applied and unapplied sEMG signals were compared. The results showed that the proposed method has provided an increase between 4% and 13% in classifications. The average classification rates for six different hand gestures were calculated as 96.66%.

Conclusions:
The study showed that the cICA method enhances classification rates while minimizing the impact of electrode displacement. The other advantage of the cICA algorithm is dimension reduction, which is important in real time applications. To observe the performance of the cICA in the real-time application, a robotic arm was controlled using sEMG signals.

Authors: Uyulan Caglar 
Published: September 2024

Introduction:
Human-machine interfaces (HMIs) can improve the quality of life for physically disabled users. This study proposes a noninvasive BMI design methodology to control a robot arm using MEG signals acquired during the user's imagined wrist movements in four directions.

Methods:
The BMI uses the partial directed coherence measure and a time-varying multivariate adaptive autoregressive model to extract task-dependent features for mental task discrimination. An extreme learning machine is used to generate a model with the extracted features, which is used to control the robot arm for rehabilitation or assistance tasks for motor-impaired individuals.

Results:
The classification results show that the proposed BMI methodology is a feasible solution with good performance and fast learning speed.

Discussion:
The proposed BMI methodology is a promising solution for rehabilitation or assistance systems for motor-impaired individuals. The BMI provides satisfactory classification performance at a fast learning speed.

Published: September 2024

Introduction:
The management of deep caries lesion can be accomplished by complete caries excavation, partial caries removal, and stepwise excavation techniques. Dentists do not agree on a single management due to available evidence about the effectiveness of different treatment options of deep carious lesion that are inconsistent.

Aim:
The aim is to investigate the attitude and behavior of management preference of deep caries in mature permanent teeth among dentists in Riyadh city. In addition, to compare these findings with academic standards, World Dental Federation and International Caries Consensus cooperation (ICCC).

Materials and Methods:
A randomized cross-sectional study was conducted in which 540 questionnaires were distributed to dentists in Riyadh city. The questionnaire included four clinical scenarios to investigate the participant's attitude and behavior of management preference of deep carious lesion of permanent teeth in Riyadh city in 2019.

Results and Discussion:
Response rate was 74%. Findings illustrate that 86.8% of participants preferred complete caries excavation in case of deep caries with no pain nor risk of pulpal exposure. 41.3% of the participants preferred complete caries excavation in case of deep caries with no pain but risk of pulpal exposure presence. 64.8% participants preferred complete caries excavation in case of deep caries with pain on provocation and no risk of pulpal exposure. 58.3% participants preferred root canal treatment in case of deep caries with pain on provocation and with risk of pulpal exposure. About 76.80% of participants believed that after 2 years from complete caries removal, a high success rate (more than 80%) will result.

Conclusion:
The majority of participants prefer more invasive approaches in the treatment of deep carious lesions and unaware of the minimally invasive dentistry.
Direct bulk-fill resin composite restorations: Characterization of pulpal floor gaps in deep occlusal cavities and current restorative minimization strategies — An overview
Authors: Hassan Khamis A. , Khier Salwa E. 
Published: September 2024

Introduction:
When a single mass of bulk-fill resin composite is inserted in a deep occlusal cavity and light cured, it undergoes restrained shrinkage due to bonding to surrounding cavity walls. This shrinkage generates stresses within the mass which are not uniformly distributed due to variations in adhesive bonding to enamel and dentin of surrounding cavity walls. This behavior creates a problem of internal debonding and gap formation at the pulpal floor that results in postoperative sensitivity and persistent tooth pain, as well as failure of the restoration, over the time, due to biodegradation of resin-dentin bond.

Aims:
This paper provides a thorough overview on the debonding problem and gap formation at pulpal floors in deep occlusal cavities restored directly with bulk-fill resin composites. It also reviews the techniques currently available in the literature for reducing this problem.

Materials and Methods:
The data was searched and collected from 2021-2022. A total of 51 articles were included in this review.

Results and Discussion:
Three restorative techniques were recently reported as possible solutions for this problem, all aiming at relieving the developed shrinkage stresses and reducing the pulpal floor gap formation. In the first technique, an intermediate layer of bulk-fill resin composite was placed on the pulpal floor and cured. While in the second technique, a fiber-reinforced layer of bulk-fill resin composite was placed on the pulpal floor and cured. In these two techniques, the restoration was completed by filling the cavity with a mass of bulk-fill resin composite and curing it. As for the third technique “the semi-split bulk-filling technique”, a diagonal gap was cut in the uncured mass of bulk-fill resin composite, extending halfway in pulpal direction through the composite bulk, followed by curing. Then, the created gap was filled with the same bulk-fill resin composite to complete the restoration and followed by curing.

Conclusion:
The three restorative techniques reported in this paper are possible solutions to the problem of debonding and gap formation at pulpal floors in deep occlusal cavities restored directly using bulk-fill resin composites. They all relieve the developed shrinkage stresses and reduce the pulpal floor gap formation.
