Follow-up Observations of Apparently One-off Sources from the Parkes Telescope
Authors: Zhang Songbo , Yang Xuan 
Published: October 2024

Abstract
A small fraction of fast radio bursts (FRBs) have been observed with multiple bursts, whereas most Galactic sources emitting radio pulses are known to repeat. Here we present the results of follow-up observations of two FRBs and four rotating radio transients (RRATs). Among these, only one RRAT has been observed with repeating pulses, with an estimated period of around 1.297047 s. For comparison, we reanalysed the Parkes archival follow-up observations in CSIRO’s data archive for all apparently one-off sources discovered by the Parkes telescopes, including 13 RRATs and 29 FRBs. In total, 3 RRATs are suggested to be repeaters, but no repeating signals were detected from the other sources. Reporting details of the nondetection observations for the apparently one-off sources would help investigate their origins, and catastrophic scenarios are worth proposing for both extragalactic and Galactic sources.
Accommodements religieux
Authors: Bizien Filippi Myriam 
Published: October 2024

À partir des années 1960, à un moment de croissance de la population immigrée en France et de réception du concile Vatican II, des mouvements catholiques d’éducation populaire « à la gauche du Christ » – la JOC-F, l’ACE puis le scoutisme catholique « de France » – s’ouvrent aux jeunes musulmans issus de l’immigration maghrébine et turque pour affirmer ou réaffirmer leur ancrage dans les milieux populaires. Cette rencontre entre mouvements catholiques et jeunes musulmans, née dans le contexte intellectuel du tiers-mondisme, est peu à peu analysée en termes de dialogue interreligieux. À la croisée de l’histoire religieuse et de l’histoire sociale, et grâce à l’analyse des archives des mouvements et au recours à l’histoire orale, c’est donc un aspect méconnu du dialogue interreligieux en France qui se dessine dans cet ouvrage : une rencontre sur le terrain, dans les quartiers populaires, loin des réunions officielles entre dignitaires religieux ou intellectuels.
Contrôler et diriger une banque d’émission coloniale en temps de crise : l’État et la Banque de La Réunion à la Belle Époque
Authors: Clermidy Arnaud 
Published: October 2024

En tant que banque d’émission coloniale, la banque de La Réunion était soumise à un contrôle étatique spécifique. Très dépendante de l’économie sucrière, elle traversa à la fin du xixe siècle et au début du xxe siècle des difficultés qui mirent son existence en péril et incitèrent l’autorité de tutelle à renforcer son contrôle. L’administration nomma des directeurs chargés de piloter la gestion de l’établissement en imposant une feuille de route précise : constitution de réserves, respect strict du statut (notamment de la convertibilité des billets), priorisation de certains types d’opérations. Effectués parfois au détriment de l’économie locale que la banque d’émission était pourtant supposée favoriser, ces choix suscitèrent questions et critiques dans la population locale.
L’opium au Việt Nam en situation coloniale (1899-1946)
Authors: Clare Thomas 
Published: October 2024

L’opium jouait un rôle de premier plan dans l’économie et les finances de l’Indochine française. Le produit de sa vente procurait au budget général le quart de ses recettes, contribuant très largement au développement de la colonie. On comprend dès lors la nécessité pour l’administration coloniale de rendre compte de manière chiffrée de la place de l’opium dans ses finances, et de l’étendue de sa consommation sur le territoire. Mais il reste à appréhender la réalité d’un marché qui échappait très largement aux données statistiques. En dépit de son rôle essentiel dans le financement de la colonie, le « monopole » n’était que théorique, et était menacé par une contrebande massive et endémique, qui invite à réévaluer la place de la drogue dans l’économie et la société coloniale indochinoise.
The Relationship of Preseason Upper Extremity Function, Pain and Training on Normalized DIII Collegiate Swimming Performance
Authors: Tate Angela , Woznicki Laruen , Strouse Gregory , Wisseman Darrell , Thomas Stephen 
Published: October 2024

Context:
Shoulder injuries comprise the largest proportion of swimming injuries and there is a large percentage of swimmers participating with pain. Therefore, it is assumed that shoulder pain decreases performance, but studies have not compared collegiate swimmers' performance with and without pain.

Objectives:
1) Determine if individual swimmer's shoulder pain and function are associated with a change in normalized swimming performance over a season.2) Determine if differences in normalized swimming performance exist among 3 collegiate teams. 3) Qualitatively describe and compare team's training regimes.

Design:
Cross sectional study

Setting:
Swimmers completed pre-(T1) and post-season (T2) surveys including pain ratings and shoulder function using the Kerlan-Jobe Orthopaedic Clinic (KJOC) shoulder and elbow questionnaire. Swimming times were obtained from published meet results. Coaches reported training programs through interviews and tracking logs.

Participants:
52 NCAA Division III swimmers from 3 teams

Main Outcome Measures:
Stepwise linear regression was used to determine if pain and function related to performance. Team demographics and normalized swimming performance (reduction in time per lap from season's beginning to end) were compared with ANOVAs with post-hoc tests.

Results
Initial KJOC scores, but not pain, related to individual swimming performance. Differences in team performance were found (p=0.006), with Team 3 having greatest reduction in time (1.01 sec/lap), lower percentage of females, a more experienced coach and a periodization schedule with large increases and decreases in yardage. There was a main effect (p=0.043) for baseline demographics with Team 3's swimmers being taller and having longer competitive experience.

Conclusions
The initial KJOC score predicting swimming performance improvement demonstrates the need for athletic trainers to prioritize enhancement of pre-season function. Endurance training induced hypoalgesia and motivation may explain the lack of effect of shoulder pain on performance. Further research is needed to elucidate optimal periodization and dryland training.
The Relationship Between Active Coping Skills and Self-Reported Knee Function in Individuals with Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
Authors: Bennett Autumn L. , Bartels Amelia , Harkey Matthew , Covassin Tracey , Baez Shelby E. , Genoese Francesca M. 
Published: October 2024

Context:
Individuals with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury commonly experience injury related stressors which can adversely impact subjective knee function after ACL reconstruction (ACLR). Due to the positive effect of active coping skills on perceived stressors, use of such strategies may influence clinical outcomes in individuals with ACLR, such as self-reported knee function. However, it is unknown whether active coping skills are associated with self-reported knee function in this population.

Objectives:
Examine the relationship between active coping skills and self-reported knee function in individuals with ACLR.

Design:
Cross-Sectional Study

Setting:
Laboratory

Patients or Other Participants:
Forty-five participants (34 females; age=20.0[3.3] years) 4-months to 5-years post-unilateral ACLR (time since ACLR=12.0[16.0] months).

Main Outcome Measure(s):
The Athlete Coping Skills Inventory (ACSI) Confidence and Achievement Motivation (ACSI Confid), Goal Setting/Mental Preparation (ACSI Goal/Prep), and Coping with Adversity (ACSI Coping) subscales were used to measure active coping skill facets. The Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) was used to measure self reported knee function across 5 subscales: pain (KOOS-Pain), symptoms (KOOS-Symptoms), activities of daily living (KOOS-ADL), quality of life (KOOS-QOL), and sports/recreation (KOOS-Sport). Partial Spearman's correlations were used to examine relationships between active coping skills and self-reported knee function after controlling for time since ACLR and age.

Results:
Moderate positive correlations were observed between the ACSI Confid and KOOS Pain (r=0.493, P=0.001), ACSI Confid and KOOS-QOL (r=0.505, P&lt;0.001), ACSI Confid and KOOS-Sport (r=0.422, P=0.007), and ACSI Goal/Prep and KOOS-Pain (r=0.441, P=0.004). Weak positive correlations were observed between the ACSI Goal/Prep and KOOS-ADL (r=0.373, P=0.018) and ACSI Goal/Prep and KOOS-QOL (r=0.374, P=0.017).

Conclusions:
Individuals with ACLR who exhibited greater active coping skill facets reported better knee-related function. Assessing active coping skills among individuals with ACLR and poor self-reported knee function may provide clinicians with insight into the role of coping in perceived function and potential treatment approaches.
Innovation capabilities and performance of small and medium-sized enterprises in Indonesia
Authors: Isa Muzakar , Nurohman Yulfan A. , Qurniawati Rina S. 
Published: October 2024

Orientation: Entrepreneurial orientation (EO), knowledge management (KM), human resource management (HRM) and knowledge sharing (KS) are important aspects in driving innovation capabilities (IC) to improve organisational performance (OP).Research purpose: The purpose of this research was to analyse the mediating effect of IC on individual EO, KM, HRM and KS and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) performance.Motivation for the study: The fluctuation in batik business performance can be attributed to a lack of studies that examine the dynamic capability perspective in the context of batik SMEs in developing countries.Research design, approach and method: A quantitative approach was used for this study. A structured self-administrative measuring instrument was employed to collect the data. A non-probability sample of 297 participants was obtained. The collected data were then analysed using SmartPLS3 software.Main findings: Innovation capabilities have been verified to significantly mediate the relationship between HRM and KS on OP. Innovation capabilities mediated the relationship between KS and OP in a negative direction, whereas previous studies indicate a positive direction.Practical/managerial implications: Entrepreneurial orientation has the most prominent role in OP in batik SMEs. An EO allows business actors to optimise their creativity and innovation to develop ideas, which helps maximise the growth of OP in SMEs.Contribution/value-add: This study’s results support the concept that EO develops various skills, from managing uncertainty to tolerating risk and forming strong entrepreneurial abilities to improve business performance.

Background: The rehabilitation team, consisting of physiatrists, physical and occupational therapists, and speech pathologists, faces heightened risk of COVID-19 exposure because of treatment practices in rehabilitation settings.Aim: The study aimed to assess the knowledge, practices and attitudes of rehabilitation professionals in treating COVID-19 patients and to determine potential associations with respondents’ demographic factors (e.g., age, gender, type of profession).Setting: The study was conducted in the Philippines.Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted from June 2021 to July 2021. Researchers employed snowballing and purposive homogenous convenient sampling methods. Participants completed a 31-item online questionnaire via Google Forms.Results: A total of 410 rehabilitation professionals participated in the study. The total mean scores for knowledge, practices and attitudes are 41.14 ± 3.16, 104.54 ± 33.65 and 37.13 ± 3.55, respectively which were considered adequate. However, only 9.8% (n = 40) professional was actively treating COVID-19 patients with analysis of variance indicated that age, type of profession and gender did not significantly impact COVID-19 knowledge. However, age (p = 0.005) and type of profession (p = 0.004) were found to influence COVID-19 practices, with physiatrists exhibiting higher adherence. There was a strong positive correlation between age and positive COVID-19 attitudes (p 0.000).Conclusion: Filipino rehabilitation professionals have positive attitude, adequate knowledge and skills about COVID-19.Contribution: The study provides information to modify training courses and curricula to further improve the knowledge and practices related to COVID-19.

Published: October 2024

ABSTRACT
Dental implant treatment is a common therapy for missing teeth in partial and complete edentulous ridges. Its success depends on the osseointegration of the implant with bone and the presence of abundant soft tissues around it. A peri-implant soft tissue is a major factor for long-term stability with regard to implant restorations. Soft-tissue augmentation procedures often are recommended for gain in keratinized tissue with relation to implant retained prosthesis. In our report, we describe in detail the treatment of mucosal recession associated with crowns placed on implants in the aesthetic region. The long partial edentulous maxillary ridge reconstruction and rehabilitation required several surgical steps for a stable result.

Published: October 2024

Abstract

Purpose:
To evaluate the efficacy of eplerenone in central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR) patients in a clinical trial design.

Methods:
In this double-blind clinical trial, naive acute. CSCR patients were divided into two groups: treatment with eplerenone 25 mg daily in the 1st week followed by 50 mg for the next 3 weeks and placebo group. Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), central macular thickness (CMT), macular volume (MV), and choroidal thickness (CT) were measured before and after 1 month of the intervention using the optical coherence tomography technique.

Results:
Thirty-one CSCR (male: 23, female: 8) and 25 CSCR patients (male: 18, female: 7) with the mean age of 35.65 ± 5.94 and 37.08 ± 6.41 years were recruited and divided randomly into treatment and placebo groups, respectively. BCVA improved significantly in the treatment group (from 0.28 ± 0.26 to 0.11 ± 0.14, P = 0.002) compared with the placebo group (from 0.31 ± 0.26 to 0.21 ± 0.14, P = 0.052). Although CT, CMT, and MV improved significantly in each group, there were no significant differences between the groups.

Conclusion:
In this study, we found favorable short-term clinical effects of eplerenone in acute CSCR patients, showing the pivotal role of mineralocorticoid receptors in the retina.

Published: October 2024

Abstract

Purpose:
To evaluate the repeatability of a pyramidal wavefront-based refraction (WFR) measurement and its agreement with dry autorefraction (DR), cycloplegic autorefraction (CR), and subjective refraction (SR) in myopic refractive surgery candidates.

Methods:
One hundred eighty-nine eyes from 189 participants were evaluated. PERAMIS aberrometry (PERAMIS; SCHWIND eye-tech-solutions, Kleinostheim, Germany), DR, and CR, as well as SR, were completed for all candidates. The repeatability of PERAMIS measurements was assessed, and the Bland–Altman plots were used to test the agreement between different methods.

Results:
Repeatability of the PERAMIS aberrometer was very high in the measurement of all refractive elements (Sphere, cylinder, spherical equivalent [M], J0, and J45) (interclass correlation coefficient >0.980 for all). A significant myopic shift was found with WFR compared to CR (0.45 diopter [D]) and SR (0.28 D) (P < 0.05). For the M component, there was a significant difference between WFR and CR (P < 0.05). J0 component measured with WFR was significantly different from SR and CR (P < 0.05). For the J45 variable, all three refraction methods were comparable (all, P > 0.05). In M > 5.00 D, a difference of 0.79 D (limit of agreement: −3.50–1.90) was found between WFR and CR.

Conclusions:
In lower degrees of myopia, WFR was in good agreement with the manifest autorefraction. WFR, CR, and SR techniques were comparable in measuring astigmatism, especially in oblique astigmatism.

Authors:   Universidad de San Carlos de Guatemala, Aguilar Ponce Yari Agustín 
Published: October 2024

OBJETIVO: Determinar la influencia de la alfabetización digital en el modelo TPACK en la educación superior. MÉTODO: La presente investigación se fundamentó en un diseño hermenéutico, su nivel de alcance fue descriptivo, dado que a través de la recopilación, revisión y análisis de informes de investigación se brindó respuesta al objetivo planteado. La muestra estuvo conformada por 15 artículos científicos realizados en diferentes instituciones académicas del nivel superior. RESULTADOS: De acuerdo al análisis realizado, se evidenció que el modelo TPACK es funcional en la educación superior, cuando se cumplen las condiciones necesarias como es el caso de la alfabetización digital en los docentes y estudiantes, en donde estudios indican que el 61.1% de los docentes tienen conocimiento de la importancia de la tecnología pero en la realidad de sus ejercicios o labores docentes no utilizan las herramientas digitales para complementar el contenido de los cursos que se importen de manera presencial, hibrida o virtual. CONCLUSIÓN: La alfabetización digital presenta una incidencia significativa con el éxito del modelo TPACK en la educación superior, debido que esta competencia digital es fundamental para que los docentes aprovechen el potencial que ofrecen las herramientas digitales en el ámbito académico, sin embargo, en Guatemala se evidencia que las políticas educativas no priorizan o dignifican la implementación de tecnología como un área de profesionalización importante y eso genera que la oferta laboral sea demandante pero muy pocos realmente tienen la posibilidad de aplicar y ejercer profesionalmente.
