Authors: Arocutipa-Huanacuni Lupita Esmeralda , Platero-Aratia Gilberto , Osco-Mamani Erbert Francisco 
Published: June 2024

El presente estudio tuvo como propósito de determinar si las estrategias heurísticas en la resolución de problemas matemáticos se corresponden con los estilos de aprendizaje de los estudiantes de la asignatura geometría analítica de una universidad pública de Perú. A través de un diseño cuasiexperimental longitudinal, se administró estrategias heurísticas para la resolución de problemas al grupo experimental y determinar su incidencia en los estilos de aprendizaje. La muestra de estudio lo conformaron 50 estudiantes pertenecientes al II ciclo de la Carrera profesional de Matemática, Computación e Informática de la Universidad Nacional “Jorge Basadre Grohmann”. El resultado evidencia que las estrategias de procesamiento y estrategias de regulación encontraron significancia estadística con respecto al grupo de control y de las calificaciones. Se concluye que los estilos de aprendizaje tienen influencia en el rendimiento académico (calificaciones) y más aún cuando están influenciadas por el uso de estrategias heurísticas en la resolución de problemas de geometría analítica.

Probability Distribution Modelling of Scanner Prices and Relative Prices Using Theoretical Distributions with Two, Three, Four, and Five Parameters
Authors: Sulewski Piotr 
Published: June 2024

This article addresses the problem of proper adjustment of the theoretical probability distribution to the empirical distribution of scanner prices. In the empirical study, we use scanner data from one retail chain in Poland, i.e., monthly data on natural yogurt, yogurt drinks, long grain rice and coffee powder sold in 212 outlets in January and February 2022. Prices and relative prices are modelled using fifty two‑, three‑, four‑, and five‑parameter probability distributions with non‑negative support. Some of them consist of somewhat known distributions which are called their special cases. The study indirectly involves over a hundred of these distributions. Information criteria such as AIC, BIC, HQIC and p‑values of goodness‑of‑fit tests are used for comparative analysis. This article shows that models such as Frechet, Pareto IV and Log‑Logistic could be distinguished as very accurate, which provides a good background for simulation research on price indices or for the construction of the so‑called population price indices. The Appendix presents the cumulative distribution function formulas of the models used and the necessary R codes for conducting the research.
The Roles of Cytoplasmic Polyadenylation Element Binding Protein 1 in Tumorigenesis
Authors: Li JiaYi , Wu Yinxin , Zhang Dingyin , Zhang Ziyan , Li Songqiang , Cheng Xi , Chen Lihan , Zhou Gang , Yuan Chengfu 
Published: June 2024

Background:
CPEB1 is an alternative polyadenylation binding protein that promotes or
suppresses the expression of related mRNAs and proteins by binding to a highly conserved Cytoplasmic
Polyadenylation Element (CPE) in the mRNAs 3’UTR. It is found to express abnormally in
multiple tumors and affect tumorigenesis through many pathways. This review summarizes the
functions and mechanisms of CPEB1 in a variety of cancers and suggests new directions for future
related treatments.

Methods:
A total of 95 articles were eligible for inclusion based on the year, quality of the research,
and the strength of association with CPEB1. In this review, current research about how CPEB1 affects
the initiation and progression of glioblastoma, breast cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, gastric
cancer, colorectal cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, prostate cancer, and melanoma are dissected,
and the biomedical functions and mechanisms are summarized.

Results:
CPEB1 mostly presents as a tumor suppressor for breast cancer, endometrial carcinoma,
hepatocellular carcinoma, non-small cell lung cancer, prostate cancer, and melanoma. However,
glioblastoma, gastric cancer, and colorectal cancer it exhibit two opposing properties of tumorigenesis,
either promoting or inhibiting it.

Conclusion:
CPEB1 is likely to serve as a target and dynamic detection index or prognostic indicator
for its function of apoptosis, activity, proliferation, migration, invasion, stemness, drug resistance,
and even ferroptosis in various cancers.
Small Area Estimation of HIV/AIDS Prevalence in South Africa using a Neural Method
Authors: Fundisi Emmanuel , Weir-Smith Gina , Mokhele Tholang , Motolwana Enathi 
Published: June 2024

Introduction/Background
Despite country-wide surveys and monitoring HIV/AIDS infections, the true prevalence can be hidden for areas with small population densities and lack of data, especially among vulnerable groups. Accurate estimation of HIV/AIDS prevalence is essential for tailoring effective interventions and resource allocation. Traditional survey-based methods for estimating disease prevalence often face limitations, particularly in small geographical areas where data may be sparse or unavailable.

Materials/Methods
This study applied a novel approach, leveraging a Neural method, an advanced machine learning technique for small area estimation (SAE), using the 2017 SABSSM and 2011 South Africa Census dataset. SAE was trained using both the “Neural method” and “Genetic method,” and the data was split randomly on a number of different iterations (70% training ― 30% training; 50% testing ― 50% testing; 80% training ― 20% testing) until the best and desirable output was achieved.

Results
The findings from the study highlight the feasibility of the model in obtaining reliable HIV/AIDS prevalence estimates in South Africa at the enumeration area across nine provinces, with an average correlation of 0.88 and R2 = 0.82. Overall, from all provinces, race was found to be significant in predicting HIV/ADS prevalence, followed by urban geographic location and sex.

Discussion
These results can help in identifying high HIV/AIDS prevalent areas to inform location-based or geotargeted interventions and policies to efficiently reduce the spread of HIV/AIDS in South Africa. The research contributes to the advancement of SAE techniques in the context of public health, showcasing the potential of artificial intelligence and machine learning to address pressing health challenges.

Conclusion
By providing granular and up-to-date estimates of HIV/AIDS prevalence, this approach assists in the ongoing efforts to combat HIV/AIDS in South Africa.
Long-term neuropsychiatric sequels in Central nervous system tuberculosis in Mexican patients
Authors: Martínez Hanna , Gómez Esther , Arroyo-Landín Manuel , Cárdenas Graciela 
Published: June 2024

Introduction: Central nervous system tuberculosis (CNS TB), the most serious form of TB, is usually associated with an intense neuroinflammatory response and severe sequels, and it is often accompanied by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) coinfection. Few works have studied mental functioning sequels in this population. Objective: The aim of this study was to characterize long-term neuropsychiatric sequels in central nervous system tuberculosis (CNS TB) patients and CNS TB/ Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) co-infected patients, and to describe some associated factors. Methods: Retrospective cohort study in CNS TB patients admitted from 2008 to 2018 in a Mexican neurological center in which sociodemographic, clinical, neuroimaging, cognitive, and neuropsychiatric data were collected. Cognitive sequel data were obtained from a screening tool that has been standardized and normalized for the Hispanic population. Neuropsychiatric data were obtained from the Neuropsychiatric Inventory Questionnaire and from medical records. Results: A total of 86 subjects were included, 23 had CNSTB and HIV. The mean age was 40.4 years, and 23% of patients had a history of pulmonary TB. The main symptoms were headache, fever, and cranial nerve palsy. Executive functions, visuospatial, and memory impairment were the most common neurocognitive sequels, while the most frequent neuropsychiatric sequels were depression, irritability, and anxiety. There was a correlation between immunity (CD4+ T cell count) and executive functions. Conclusions: This is the first report in Mexican patients evaluating long-term neurocognitive sequels in CNS TB. Some clinical and sociodemographic traits seem to be neuroprotective factors against long-term neuropsychiatric sequels.
Identification of Swedish caries active individuals aged 30–90 years using a life course perspective and SKaPa longitudinal national registry data over a 10-year period

Published: June 2024

Objective: To describe the occurrence of caries disease from a life course perspective using longitudinal data from the Swedish Quality Registry for Caries and Periodontal Disease (SKaPa).
Material and Methods: Data from seven age cohorts (ages 30–90 years), each followed over 10 years, were retrieved from the SKaPa. Using a three-trajectory model, individuals were divided into three trajectories according to their caries development over time: high (15%), moderate (45%), or low (40%). Caries experience was expressed as the mean decayed, missing, and filled surfaces (DMFS) index.
Results: Significant differences were found for all three trajectories and in all age groups over the 10 years. The mean DMFS index increase was significantly larger for the high trajectory group than for the moderate and low trajectory groups across all age cohorts. An increase in caries experience was observed for the older cohorts across all trajectories.
Conclusions: A three-trajectory model appears useful for identifying and quantifying caries experiences in longitudinal studies. Increased caries disease occurs over time, especially in the highest trajectory group and among older cohorts. These findings emphasise the need for greater attention and more efficient caries prevention methods.
Morals, values and laws: philosophical, legal and psychological aspects
Authors: Стрижова Ирина Викторовна , Стрижова Мария Евгеньевна 
Published: June 2024

В статье рассматривается вопрос о взаимосвязи морали, нравственности, права в философско-правовом и психологическом аспектах. Авторы отмечают целесообразность изучения взаимосвязи именно трех этих категорий, а не традиционных пар «мораль – нравственность», «нравственность – право» и «мораль – право». С позиции философии права мораль испытывает на себе влияние внешних воздействий в форме правовых норм, но и само право определяется моральными ориентирами. В психологическом аспекте взаимосвязи морали, нравственности и права в сознании индивида изначально не существует, она возникает и развивается по мере становления его самосознания. «Вращивание» правовых и моральных представлений в нравственные убеждения происходит по мере осознания индивидом ответственности за свой поступок, которая бывает нравственной (внутренней, субъективной) и специальной (внешней, объективной). Первый вид состоит в наполнении поступка личностным смыслом, второй – в установлении соответствия поступка моральным и правовым нормам. Понимание сложного механизма взаимосвязи и взаимопереходов морали, нравственности и права позволяет выстроить этапы формирования такого системного психического образования, как нравственная надежность. По мнению авторов, нравственная надежность отражает единство трех рассмотренных категорий и включает в себя процессы когнитивной обработки информации, нравственного осмысления, регуляции и рефлексии поведения в ситуации решения нравственных задач.
The article examines the issue of the interpretation of morals, values, and laws in philosophical, legal and psychological aspects. The authors note the expediency of studying these three categories, in not the traditional pairs “morals-values”, “values- laws” and “morals-laws”. From the position of legal philosophy, morality is influenced by external influences in the form of legal norms, but law itself is determined by moral guidelines. The interrelation between these categories does not initially exist in the consciousness of an individual; it arises and develops as their self-awareness develops. The “growing” of legal and moral ideas into valuable beliefs occurs as the individual takes the responsibility for his action, which can be moral (internal, subjective) and special (external, objective). The first type consists in filling the action with personal meaning, the second – the action to be done in accordance with moral and legal norms. Understanding the complex mechanism of interrelation and mutual transitions of morals, values and laws allows us to reveal the stages of formation of systemic psychological education as moral reliability. According to the authors, moral reliability reflects the unity of the three categories and includes the mechanisms of functioning moral-semantic, cognitive, regulatory and behavioral actions in the situation of choosing a way to obtain material benefits.

Authors: Yin Chengyao , Marble Chris 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
Hundreds of new woody ornamental plant cultivars are introduced into the nursery industry each year which have many desirable aesthetic traits. However, in recent years growers have reported a higher level of herbicide sensitivity with certain cultivars compared with older cultivars that have been in the trade for multiple years. The objective of this research was to determine the tolerance of 12 different cultivars of five ornamental species including four cultivars of Loropetalum chinense [‘Ruby’, ‘Shang-hi’ PP18331 (Purple Diamond®), ‘Irodori’ USPP 27713 (Jazz Hands®), and ‘PIILC-I’ (Crimson Fire™), and two cultivars of Gardenia jasminoides (‘Frostproof’ and ‘Buttons’), Lagerstroemia indica [‘JM7’ PP34092 (Thunderstruck™ Ruby) and ‘Tuscarora’], Rhododendron [‘Conlet’ PP12111 (Autumn Carnival Encore®) and ‘Fashion’], and Ligustrum sinense Sunshine (‘Sunshine’ PP20379 and ‘Variegatum’) to spray-applied applications of dimethenamid-P or isoxaben + prodiamine and granular applications of dimethenamid-P + pendimethalin and indaziflam. While little to no injury was observed in gardenia or crape myrtles, significant injury and differences among cultivars of the same species were observed in azalea, loropetalum, and ligustrum. Results indicate that all new cultivars should be evaluated for herbicide tolerance by growers prior to wide scale application as significant differences in both growth and injury ratings were observed between different cultivars of the same species.
Species used in this study: Ruby Loropetalum (Loropetalum chinense (R.Br.) Oliv. ‘Ruby’); Purple Diamond® loropetalum (Loropetalum chinense ‘Shang-hi’ PP18331); Jazz Hands loropetalum (Loropetalum chinense ‘Irodori’ USPP 27713); Crimson Fire™ loropetalum (Loropetalum chinense var. rubrum ‘PIILC-I’); Frostproof gardenia (Gardenia jasminoides J.Ellis ‘Frostproof’); Buttons gardenia (Gardenia jasminoides ‘Buttons’); Thunderstruck™ Ruby crape myrtle (Lagerstroemia × ‘JM7’ PP34092); Tuscarora crape myrtle (Lagerstroemia indica L. ‘Tuscarora’); Autumn Carnival Encore® azalea (Rhododendron ‘Conlet’ PP12111); Fashion azalea (Rhododendron × ‘Fashion’); Sunshine ligustrum (Ligustrum sinense Lour. ‘Sunshine’ PP20379); Variegated ligustrum (Ligustrum sinense ‘Variegatum’).
Chemicals used in this study: dimethenamid-P (Tower®), (S)-2-chloro-N-(2,4-dimethyl-3-thienyl)-N-(2-methoxy-1-methylethyl)-acetamide; dimethenamid-P+ pendimethalin (FreeHand®) (S)-2-chloro-N-[(1-methyl-2-methoxy)ethyl]-N-(2,4-dimethyl-thien-3-yl)-acetamide + N-(1-ethylpropyl)-3,4-dimethyl-2,6-dinitrobenzenam; indaziflam (Marengo®G) N-[(1R,2S)-2,3-dihydro-2,6-dimethyl-1H-inden-1-yl]-6-[(1RS)-1 fluoroethyl]-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-diamine; prodiamine + isoxaben (Gemini® SC) 2,6-Dinitro-N1,N1-dipropyl-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzene-1,3-diamine + 2,6-Dimethoxy-N-[3-(3-methylpentan-3-yl)-1,2-oxazol-5-yl]benzamide.
The Driving Forces and Barriers of Golf Course Superintendents' Adoption of Precision Irrigation Technology

Published: June 2024

Abstract
With the water scarcity crisis, how to use water more efficiently has become an issue that needs to be addressed. The US golf industry, which is known for its high irrigation water consumption, is seeking water-saving strategies. One possible solution is the adoption of precision irrigation technology. The technology is often regarded as an effective water-saving strategy in agricultural production, but the technology’s adoption rate in US golf courses remains low. This paper aims to identify the driving forces and barriers to adoption of precision irrigation technologies among US golf course superintendents, as well as strategies to promote the adoption. Over one hundred golf course superintendents completed questions about precision irrigation technology adoption, golf course operation and demographics in our online survey. The results show the three main driving forces of precision irrigation technology adoption are reducing water use, increasing playability, and better turfgrass aesthetics, and the three main barriers are high initial adoption cost, approval by higher level administrators needed, and lack of information about the effectiveness of the technology. The main information sources used by golf course superintendents are industry association and peer referral. The results have important implications on how to improve the adoption rate of the precision irrigation technology on golf courses.
Social housing - between design and social practices: The case of the 670 social housing units in Oran
Authors: Benyamina Bachir , Benkoula Sidi Mohammed el Habib 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
Housing represents the initial place where each individual has the opportunity to reconnect with their identity. It should offer every family the opportunity to live according to their lifestyle. Most people aspire to a living space that reflects both their aspirations and their way of life, while also taking into account the demands of everyday life. Since independence, Algeria has shown a remarkable commitment to promoting social housing, mobilising significant efforts in this area. However, what has been observed is that professionals design housing that occupants adapt to their daily needs. Despite the in-depth analyses by numerous researchers revealing the significance of these transformations, professionals persist in reproducing the same spatial patterns, thus demonstrating a certain indifference towards the work of academic research. Residents have tried to adapt to these housing units by making modifications to gain more space both inside and out. Inside, these transformations were appreciated by the occupants. From the outside, these remodellings have had a negative impact on the overall image of the city. The balance between quantity and quality was not taken into account, even though the aim of rapid construction was to alleviate pressure on the housing market. This article aims to question occupants' practices to establish a link between the housing designed and built, and occupants' expectations. The analytical approach used is post occupancy evaluation (POE) - a multi-method approach to data collection that includes direct observation, plan analysis and questionnaire. The housing units studied were not selected according to any particular method but rather chosen on the basis of the residents who agreed to answer the questions and share their lifestyle and expectations regarding their housing. Data processing, through a comparison between the initial plan drawn up by the designer and the current plan modified by the inhabitant, enabled us to deduce the discrepancies that exist between the two plans and to understand the modes of appropriation of the housing's interior space.
