Abstract
Background
Children and adolescents diagnosed with major depressive disorder (MDD) often grapple with significant non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI), linked to interpersonal challenges, insecure attachment, and internet addiction. This study explores these relationships in children and adolescents using network analysis, drawing data from seven hospitals in China.

Results
The study included 162 youths with depressive disorder and 102 healthy controls from seven hospitals. The MDD + NSSI group exhibited severe internet addiction, heightened depressive symptoms, and insecure attachment. Network analysis identified central symptoms (compulsive use) and key bridge symptoms (tolerance symptoms) in the networks related to depressive symptoms, internet addiction, and attachments. These findings suggest potential targets for intervention among children and adolescents at risk for or suffering from depression.

Conclusions
This study sheds light on the intricate relationship between NSSI, attachment issues, and internet addiction in Chinese adolescents with MDD. The network analysis pinpointed central and key bridge symptoms, offering valuable insights for targeted interventions in children and adolescents at risk for or experiencing depression and associated challenges.

Authors: William Emad A. , Sharaf Rehab M. , Ismail Wesam M. 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
Background
Kidneys have been one of the different organs affected by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) since its discovery, Acute kidney injury was the most common presentation. A pooled data from different kidney centers or hospitals in Egypt who sent their renal biopsy specimens from patients with renal trouble, up to 4 months after catching SARS-CoV-2, to PATH LAB for diagnosis, were analyzed.

Results
Beside acute kidney injury, a variety of different presentations was found, such as accidentally discovered impaired kidney function, varying degrees of proteinuria, and nephrotic syndrome. Not only acute tubular injury, acute tubulointerstitial nephritis, or thrombotic microangiopathy, but the extent of observation for 4 months revealed, unexpected pathologies, such as podocytopathies, membranous glomerulonephritis, proliferative and necrotizing glomerulonephritis, and lupus nephritis.

Conclusion
This virus has been incriminated in a chain of different kidney disease presentations and pathologies, although, a causal relationship is difficult to prove.
A study of borderline cases of velopharyngeal insufficiency using cephalometry and nasofibroscopy
Authors: Aref Essam-Eldin M. , Darwesh AbdElAzez MF. , Ibrahim Reham A. 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
Background
Identification of borderline cases of velopharyngeal insufficiency (VPI) due to palatopharyngeal disproportion in the form of short palate or deep posterior pharyngeal wall is necessary particularly in preoperative assessment of adenotonsillectomy to prevent post-adenotonsillectomy velopharyngeal insufficiency and hypernasality.

Objective
To evaluate the role of fiberoptic nasopharyngoscopy and cephalometry for assessment of clinically suspected cases of palatopharyngeal disproportion (borderline VPI) cases to identify the craniofacial morphometric measurements of such cases that may be helpful as a prognostic indicator in predicting and preventing post-adenotonsillectomy velopharyngeal dysfunction.

Design
This is an observational cross-sectional study of 38 patients with suspected palatopharyngeal disproportion (24 male and 14 female) with ages ranging from 3 to 7 years who were referred to the phoniatrics unit at Assiut University Hospital for the assessment of the velopharyngeal valve before adenotonsillectomy operation. The control group consisted of 25 normal individuals. They were subjected to (1) auditory perceptual assessment (APA) of the patients’ speech, (2) fiberoptic nasopharyngoscopy, and (3) lateral cephalometry.

Results
Auditory perceptual assessment showed no statistically significant difference between both groups. Fiberoptic nasopharyngoscopic examination revealed a highly significant statistical difference between both groups as regards lateral pharyngeal wall mobility (p = 0.000). Lateral cephalometric assessment showed significant statistical differences for maxillary protrusion (P = 0.04) which was slightly wider in the study group than in the control group and bony pharyngeal depth (Ptm-Ba) (P = 0.03) which was deeper in the study group than in the control group.

Conclusion
Auditory perceptual assessment of speech, nasopharyngoscopy, and cephalometry are important tools that could be used for pre-adenotonsillectomy assessment of cases with palatopharyngeal disproportion to prevent the post-adenotonsillectomy velopharyngeal insufficiency and its consequences.
Xyloid Sexuality
Authors: Edwards Caroline 
Published: September 2024

AbstractThe Kenyan-born, US-based artist Wangechi Mutu is fascinated by the human body and its nonhuman possibilities. In Mutu's collaged works, human forms are repeatedly ripped apart and reassembled within fantasy landscapes that speak of decomposition and regrowth. This article analyzes the significance of trees to Mutu's project of dismantling the human. Drawing from critical plant studies, forest ecology, cultural anthropology, and the mycological turn, it argues that Mutu's artworks forcefully reclaim the nonhuman as a site of Black expressive culture. These artworks blur ontological distinctions between the human and the arboreal through xyloid sexuality, a weirding of human eroticism and reproduction that pushes desire, procreation, and sexual fulfillment beyond species boundaries. Mutu's use of xyloid sexuality can be understood as a radical utopian gesture to supplant the violence of the colonial gaze with a powerfully more-than-human Black gaze.
(Nie)ginące zawody na Krajowej Liście Niematerialnego Dziedzictwa Kulturowego – ochrona, popularyzacja czy dekontekstualizacja?
Authors: Kraczoń Katarzyna 
Published: September 2024

Zasadniczym celem artykułu jest spojrzenie na formy ochrony i popularyzacji tradycyjnych rzemiosł wiejskich, a także ukazanie zjawisk, które wpływają na procesy ich dekontekstualizacji. Obecnie na Krajowej Liście Niematerialnego Dziedzictwa Kulturowego znajduje się 85 wpisów, z czego 35 przyjętych wniosków dotyczy wiedzy na temat tradycyjnych rzemiosł i form przekazywania umiejętności wytwarzania poszczególnych artefaktów. Obok zwiększonego zapotrzebowania na ich wytwory, twórcy muszą nierzadko mierzyć się z wieloma problemami, z których najistotniejszym jest brak kontynuatorów tradycji. W opracowaniu ukazano, w jaki sposób współczesne formy ochrony zjawisk niematerialnego dziedzictwa kulturowego wpływają na jego żywotność i stan zachowania.
W trosce o węchowy wymiar dziedzictwa. O „The Odeuropa Smell Explorer. Explore Europe’s Olfactory Heritage” oraz „Encyclopedia of Smell History and Heritage”
Authors: Rygielska Małgorzata 
Published: September 2024

Artykuł ma charakter raportu dotyczącego działań podejmowanych w ramach projektu Odeuropa (ODEUROPA: Negotiating Olfactory and Sensory Experiences in Cultural Heritage Practice and Research, HORYZONT 2020), w szczególności tych związanych pośrednio bądź bezpośrednio z dziedzictwem węchowym. Autorka skupia się przede wszystkim na opisie wymiernych efektów tych działań, dostępnych dzięki wyszukiwarce internetowej Smell Explorer oraz Encyclopedia of Smell History and Heritage. Projekt skupiony był na badaniach olfaktorycznego dziedzictwa Europy, wypracowaniu metod jego zachowania i opisu jako części materialnego i niematerialnego dziedzictwa kulturowego, a także ukierunkowanej promocji. Obecnie projekt jest formalnie zakończony, choć wciąż trwa stadium jego ewaluacji – uczestnicy publikują coraz więcej przeglądowych artykułów, informujących szersze grono badaczy o zastosowanych metodach, przebiegu badań, procesie zbierania, analizowania i interpretowania danych, a także płynących z nich wnioskach. Jest to projekt dotąd nieomawiany w Polsce – wpisuje się nie tylko w obszar badań związanych z etnografią i antropologią wielozmysłową, ale także, a może nawet przede wszystkim, w badania związane z historią i historią kultury Europy, którą próbuje się poszerzyć o aspekt węchowego dziedzictwa.

The Polish milky ways A socio-historical case of the human-nonhuman relationship
Authors: Mroczkowska Joanna 
Published: September 2024

This article discusses the socio-historical case of the human – non-human networks of Polish farmers engaged in milk production and cow herding. “Milky ways” is a term referring to var­ious ways, networks and social constellations which determine the socio-political landscape of Polish milk and dairy production and cow herding. The analysis includes ways in which, in various timeframes (before the Second World War, during Socialism, in the present time), milk is remembered to have linked a farming community and served as ways of sustenance for various types of farmers and local inhabitants (e.g. Jews, townspeople). The article explores what actors (people, products, spaces, and politics) formed the milky-way network, bringing into question the well-being and coping strategies of present-day farmers. Data for this study was collected during ethnographic fieldwork in Eastern Poland in the summer of 2019, as well as between 2010 and 2014 in villages around a small Podlachian town.
Obrzęd religijny w świetle semiotyki kultury
Authors: Żyłko Bogusław 
Published: September 2024

Zastosowanie teorii semiotyki strukturalnej i kategorii tekstu kultury do materiału współczesnej obrzędowości przynosi książka Katarzyny Smyk Obrzęd jako tekst kultury. Przykład Bożego Ciała w Spycimierzu (Smyk 2020). Już w jej tytule zawiera się informacja, o jaki fakt kulturowy i o jaką metodę chodzi. Przedmiotem „materialnym” jest bowiem obrzęd, a konkretnie – obchodzenie Bożego Ciała we wsi Spycimierz (gm. Uniejów, pow. poddębicki, woj. łódzkie). Będzie on ujmowany w pewnym swoim aspekcie, na który wskazuje użyty w tytule termin „tekst kultury”. Powstaje logicznie uzasadniona sekwencja: fakt (przedmiot) – jego koncepcja (teoria) – metody badawcze. Charakterystyce tej triady poświęcony jest wstępny rozdział: Obrzęd – tekst kultury – metodologie. Przedmiot badań (obrzęd) nie wyznacza bezpośrednio metody (metod). Wyznacza ją koncepcja przedmiotu: tutaj – ujęcie obrzędu właśnie jako tekstu kultury. To ostatnie pojęcie występuje w monografii niejako w podwójnej roli: odsyła do przedmiotu badań (konstytuując właściwy przedmiot badań) i zarazem do określonej metody jako jej kluczowe narzędzie.
Trwałość czy zmiana? W kręgu ludowych i nieludowych tradycji
Authors: Wróblewska Violetta 
Published: September 2024

Wydawać by się mogło, że o tradycji ludowej napisano już prawie wszystko i nic nowego nie da się w zakresie tej materii powiedzieć, ponieważ obecnie rejestruje się w terenie jedynie kulturowe odpryski dawnej chłopskiej kultury, które zachowały się w rodzinnych zasobach za sprawą nestorów, ewentualnie w archiwach zbieraczy regionalistów. Zwłaszcza za mało satysfakcjonujące może uchodzić badanie etnograficznych regionów już dobrze rozpoznanych i opisanych, jak Kaszuby. Obszar ten, cieszący się znacznym zainteresowaniem badaczy, już w XIX w. i to z różnych powodów – zarówno politycznych, historycznych oraz językowych (Wróblewska 2018: 93–103) – dawnych (Nadmorski 1892; Ramułt 1893), jak i współczesnych (Labuda 1996; Paždjerski 2016), zdaje się być obszarem miałkim poznawczo.
Nic bardziej mylnego. Okazuje się, że rzeczywistość potrafi zaskoczyć, czego dowodzi wydana niedawno monografia Kaszubskie dziedzictwo kulturowe: ochrona – trwanie – rozwój, pod red. Ewy Kocój, Cezarego Obracht-Prondzyńskiego, Katarzyny Barańskiej i Mirosława Kuklika (Kocój, Obracht-Prondzyński, Barańska, Kuklik 2021). Jest to praca niezwykle interesująca, wieloautorska, w przekrojowy sposób ukazująca najważniejsze elementy regionalnego dziedzictwa kulturowego, z uwzględnieniem aspektu jego trwałości i zmiany. Jednocześnie nie brakuje w niej prezentacji zupełnie nowych zjawisk, związanych ze zmianami zachodzącymi w regionie za sprawą czynników cywilizacyjnych, kulturowych, jak też politycznych, dowodząc nieustającej dynamiki kulturowej. Za niekwestionowany walor monografii należy uznać opis kształtowania się zupełnie nowych form tradycji, niepozostających w związkach z dawną kulturą ludową, ale wynikających ze specyfiki ziemi kaszubskiej. Nie brakuje również przykładów działań, np. artystycznych czy animacyjnych, które zostały zainspirowane tradycyjną kulturą. Całość przemyślana, dobrze poparta przykładami, również materiałem zdjęciowym, szkoda jedynie, że czarno-białym, co odbiera nieco smaku. A zmysły przy poznawaniu regionalnego dziedzictwa Kaszub odgrywają ogromną rolę, wiele tu bowiem dźwięków, kolorów, zapachów. Ale mimo tego drobnego mankamentu zebrane w tomie prace (łącznie 12, dodatkowo wstęp i noty o autorach), w większości wyrastające z badań terenowych, to interesujące, napisane z pasją, pogłębione, wieloaspektowe studia dotyczące wybranych elementów ludowego dziedzictwa Kaszub, takich jak język, literatura, muzyka, folklor, obrzędy i zwyczaje.
An Efficient Node Selection Policy for Monte Carlo Tree Search with Neural Networks
Authors: Liu Xiaotian , Peng Yijie , Zhang Gongbo , Zhou Ruihan 
Published: September 2024

Monte Carlo tree search (MCTS) has been gaining increasing popularity, and the success of AlphaGo has prompted a new trend of incorporating a value network and a policy network constructed with neural networks into MCTS, namely, NN-MCTS. In this work, motivated by the shortcomings of the widely used upper confidence bounds applied to trees (UCT) policy, we formulate the node selection problem in NN-MCTS as a multistage ranking and selection (R&S) problem and propose a node selection policy that efficiently allocates a limited search budget to maximize the probability of correctly selecting the best action at the root state. The value and policy networks in NN-MCTS further improve the performance of the proposed node selection policy by providing prior knowledge and guiding the selection of the final action, respectively. Numerical experiments on two board games and an OpenAI task demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms the UCT policy used in AlphaGo Zero and MuZero, implying the potential of constructing node selection policies in NN-MCTS with R&S procedures.

Factor structure and psychometric properties of the Body Perception Questionnaire–Short Form (BPQ-SF); The Persian version
Authors: Najari Simin , Rostami Reza , Kazemi Reza , Farahani Hojjatollah 
Published: September 2024

Background
Body perception is considered an important physiological marker in physical and mental disorders, therefore, its valid and reliable quantification is indeed necessary. Due to the lack of a Persian version of an instrument with validated psychometric properties for evaluating body perception, this study aimed to investigate the factorial structure, reliability, and validity of body perception questionnaire-Short Form (BPQ-SF) among Iranian adults.

Methods
A total of 748 participants (mean age = 31.74; 57%female) were included in the analysis. Participants were recruited using the online survey method. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was performed and concurrent validity was determined by computing Pearson’s correlation coefficient between BPQ_SF, Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS), and somatization subscale of Symptom-Checklist-90 (SOM). Internal consistency (using Cronbach’s alpha and McDonald’s omega), and composite reliability were also evaluated.

Results
The result of the CFA yielded three factors: Body Awareness, Subdiaphragmatic Reactivity, and Supradiaphragmatic Reactivity. Cronbach’s alpha values for all BPQ_SF items were 0.94. Moreover, Concurrent validity between BPQ, SOM, and DASS was determined to be between 0.44 to 0.94. and had good internal consistency (McDonald’s Omega range: .74-.93 Cronbach’s alpha range: .76-.94).

Conclusions
The BPQ-SF demonstrated good psychometric properties among Iranians thus can be used to reliably assess body perception.
The role of speaker categorization in South Korean attitudes toward North Korean accents
Authors: Shin Yu Kyoung , Lindemann Stephanie 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
North Koreans in South Korea often try to adopt South Korean accents to avoid discrimination, with varying degrees of success. Language attitudes studies have tended to investigate reactions to distinct varieties rather than speakers’ attempts to approximate new varieties for their own benefit, and while a few have considered the effects of listeners’ categorization of speakers on evaluations of them, they have generally focused solely on macro-categories such as place of origin, especially in languages other than English. This study investigates South Koreans’ attitudes toward North and South Koreans’ native and adopted accents and how these attitudes may relate to listeners’ categorization of the speakers. Eighty-two South Korean listeners rated recordings of three Korean speakers, two from different cities in North Korea and one from Busan, South Korea, who each read the same text in two versions: their native variety and their adopted Seoul variety. Listeners only consistently identified the Pyongyang variety as North Korean, but rated all three speakers more positively in Seoul guises than in their native guises. Additionally, when North Korean speakers were identified as being from outside South Korea, ratings were less positive. However, the Pyongyang speaker was rated more highly than the South Korean speaker on positive qualities, and qualitative data suggests that other types of speaker categorization may be relevant to attitudes, such as ‘professional’ for the Pyongyang speaker in both guises and ‘youth’ for the South Korean speaker in her Seoul guise. Thus, attitudes studies may benefit from qualitative data on speaker identification beyond the usual macro-categories, addressing the multiple categories indexed by a speech sample.
Vaccine/Vaccination Hesitancy: Challenging Science and Society
Authors: Schaufler Savannah 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
How disasters (e.g., disease, war, and natural disasters) affect people is reflected in their behavior; in the face of a disaster, people are likely to act out of fear, anxiety, uncertainty, and panic in terms of self-preservation. Following more than 2 years of living amidst a global pandemic, issues of human behavior, and especially individual and societal resilience in response to disasters, are increasingly gaining focus. The theories of planned behavior and cognitive dissonance can help explain behavioral changes and underlying intrinsic conflicts. Especially in relation to global health, such phenomena as discrimination and exclusion are identified as having a negative impact on efforts to contain infectious diseases. In this context, the question arises of how to encourage members of a global society to behave cohesively in terms of quarantine, social distancing, and vaccination. This article demonstrates the existence of disbelief and misrepresentations in the context of vaccine fatigue and skepticism. While vaccinations have helped improve public health, skepticism, and resistance toward their efficacy are increasing. Looking specifically at the relatively new vaccines inoculating against the coronavirus, this article explores factors contributing to vaccine skepticism, especially with regard to Western Europe and the United States.
Traditional and Digital Limits of Collective Investment Schemes
Authors: Sinnig Julia , Zetzsche Dirk A 
Published: September 2024

Abstract

157
This article discusses the regulatory definition of collective investment undertakings (CIUs) as provided for by Article 4 (1) (a) AIFMD and Article 1 (1) UCITSD in the context of traditional family offices, holding companies, and joint ventures, and distinguishes them from more recently observed digital asset pools such as digitally managed accounts, crypto lending, crypto staking, and decentralized autonomous organizations.Testing the legal definition of CIUs in the context of traditional and digital pooled investments allows not only for the delineation of the scope of AIFMD (and to a lesser extent, UCITSD), but also provides insights on the desirable content of Level 2 regulation under MiCA. While ESMA guidance based on many years of supervisory experience sets the limits on traditional use cases, the digital boundaries of collective investment schemes are largely untested and to some extent uncertain, resulting in high costs for legal advice, as demonstrated by our brief look into MiCA set out in this article. To address these matters, we argue in favor of broad default rules on pooled finance, paired with exemptive powers from individual or all rules where a disparity exists between the purpose of regulation and the regulated activities. If paired with carve-outs for applications below EUR 5 million (where retail investors are present) and EUR 100 million (sophisticated clients only), these default rules would assist supervisory authorities in setting adequate boundaries for investment fund regulation of innovative financial products. After the introduction (Pt. I), Pt. II outlines the legal definition(s) of CIUs; Pt. III discusses the regulatory limits in the context of traditional use cases; Pt. IV analyzes the limits for digitally managed accounts, decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs), and decentralized finance as a whole (referred to collectively as “digital limits”); Pt. V presents our policy considerations; and Pt. VI concludes.
