The impact of out-of-school L2 input and interaction on adolescent classroom immersion and community-L2 learners’ L2 vocabulary: opportunities for interaction are key
Authors: Rusk Brian V. , Paradis Johanne 
Published: April 2024

Abstract
Comparing young second-language (L2) learners in different learning contexts is a valuable, but under-researched, design for determining how L2 experiences impact L2 development. This study addressed this gap by comparing the out-of-school L2 experiences of adolescents (N = 64) learning L2-English as either a community majority language or as a foreign language in an immersion classroom, and examining how differences in L2 experience impacted English receptive vocabulary ability. Participant questionnaires yielded information on sources of L2 input and L2 interaction out-of-school. Results showed the groups were comparable for L2 input, but immersion learners experienced less interactional L2 use and also had significantly smaller L2 vocabularies. Out-of-school L2 experience explained more variance in receptive vocabulary for community-L2 participants, with more significant predictor variables than immersion-L2 participants. L2 interaction variables explained more variance than L2 input variables for both groups, indicating that, overall, interaction is a key source of L2 receptive vocabulary development.

Inspired by analogous concepts in graph theory, these form a natural generalization of homogeneity, which was studied by Cherlin and Felgner as well as Li, and automorphism transitivity, which was investigated by Zhang.
Additionally, these groups have an interesting algorithmic interpretation.
We classify the 𝑘-ultrahomogeneous and ℓ-tuple regular finite groups for

Published: April 2024

The purpose of the article is to reveal the reform of the decentralization of power in Ukraine under conditions of war. In the concept of the territorial community of Ukraine, ancient European traditions of Ukrainian local self-government and modern standards of the European Union have been successfully embodied. The productive interaction of citizens, the state, and international organizations contributed to formation of Ukrainian territorial communities. It has been proven that the personal income tax is one of the main sources of filling community budgets. For 9 months of 2022 local budgets of the Dnipropetrovsk region of Ukraine received 16,364,124 Ukrainian hryvnias (UAH) as personal income tax, which is 34% more than for the same period in 2021. Methodology: The specifics of the research subject, as well as its purpose and tasks determined the use of general scientific and special methods of scientific cognition. Stabilization and restoration of territorial communities in Ukraine require the introduction of a new three-level effective and transparent system of strategic planning: state strategy — regional strategies — community strategies. For restoration and stimulation of regional development strategizing should contain definition of the following four functional types of territories: territories of recovery, poles of economic growth, territories with special conditions for development, territories of sustainable development.

Nueva victoria de Bukele en El Salvador
Authors: Sabasta Jorge 
Published: April 2024

Nayib Bukele, empresario y político de El Salvador, accedió por primera vez a la primera magistratura de ese país en 2019 por el partido Gran Alianza por la Unidad Nacional y sucediendo a Salvador Sánchez Cerén, quien representaba al Frente Farabundo Martí para la Liberación Nacional. En esa primera elección obtuvo una mayoría absoluta, sin necesidad de efectuar una segunda vuelta. Su primera gestión de gobierno, interpelada por distintos agentes sociales y apoyada en una política de seguridad de “mano dura”, derivó en una reelección a su cargo en 2024, convirtiéndose así en el primer presidente en gobernar el país por un segundo mandato consecutivo desde la promulgación de la actual Constitución en 1983, que prohíbe la reelección inmediata. Este texto aborda algunos antecedentes del tránsito político de Bukele, dinámicas de la última elección que lo llevó nuevamente al poder y sus alcances.
Softwood Grafting of Clementine Mandarin as Affected by Thidiazuron Treatment and Rootstock Type
Authors: Al-Janabi A.M.I. , Abd N.T. 
Published: April 2024

Background: Citrus are propagated on a commercial scale by budding on different rootstocks species; nevertheless, one of the main problems nurserymen encounter is the slow growth of these rootstocks in the early phases of their growth, which drives up production costs. Therefore, the process of softwood grafting is one of the promising methods for quick propagating species of citrus. Methods: The present study on softwood grafting in clementine mandarin was conducted under lath house conditions during 2022-2023, to illustrate the impact of dipping the scion shoots in Thidiazuron at a concentration of 0, 10 and 20 mg L-1 and types of rootstocks (Sour orange, Rough lemon, Rangpur lime and Swingle citrumelo) on the percentage of grafting success and some vegetative characteristics of resultant saplings. A factorial experiment was executed out utilizing a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications. Result: The two factors of study, particularly the treatment with 20 mg L-1 of Thidiazuron and Rough lemon rootstock, showed significant superiority in all traits, such as earliness in the initiation and completion of sprouting, graft success per cent, graft survival per cent, plant height, scion and rootstock diameter, as well as the number of branches and leaves plant-1. On the other hand, the un-treated with growth regulator and Swingle citrumelo rootstock recorded the lowest values for these traits.

Introduction: Single-parent adolescents are often prone to depression. Depression itself is a natural disorder of feelings, emotions that a child or teenager can experience during the ransition from children to adults which is theresult of separation or loss of parents either due to divorce or death. Mindfulness can serve to increase one's sensitivity to understand current events.
Method: This is a descriptive research analysis with a cross sectional approach. The independent variable of this study is the level of depression of students with single parents and the dependent variable is mindfulness. The population in this study was students with single parents at SMK Muhammadiyah Bumiayu. Sampling was carried out using a total sampling technique of 60 respondents by filling out the Mindful Attention Awareness Scale and Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS) questionnaires. The analysis used was univariate and bivariate with bivariate assays of the characteristics of sex respondents using Spearman Rank.
Results: The results showed that there was a relationship between mindfulness and depression levels of adolescents with single parents with a p value of 0.01. The results of student depression rates under normal conditions were 39 (65%), moderate depression 13 (21.7%), and mild depression 8 (13.3%).
Conclusion: Adolescents with single parents who are depressed should strive to be able to achieve a state of mindfulness, so that adolescents are able to live and adapt their lives well.

Published: April 2024

This study aimed to evaluate a cantilever beam-type piezoelectric energy harvester operating on train-induced vibrations for powering Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) used in railway track monitoring systems. The harvester&#039;s behaviors under different conditions are simulated in MATLAB using the analytical model. Natural frequency, maximum deflection, and stress were calculated with greater precision using eigenfrequency and stationary analysis using COMSOL Multiphysics. At a base excitation of 2 g and a resonant frequency of 4.38 Hz, the simulated results showed that the developed energy harvester prototype could generate up to 14 V of AC output voltage and 550 mW of output power. These findings highlight the promising potential of the proposed energy harvester for transforming train mechanical energy into electrical power. This energy harvester&#039;s viability and dependability for real-world applications in monitoring railway tracks are supported by developed analytical and simulation models.

Abstract

People with certain blood groups and Rh positive are more prone to infections transmitted by blood transfusion. The aim of this research was to survey the accompaniment of ABO Blood Group System and Rh type with infection to hepatitis C virus in India. This was a retrospective study in patients during October 2019-March 2022 in India. The population of blood donors was tested for blood borne infections, including HCV. Logistic regression was used and collected data were analyzed using SPSS v.16. A total number of 901 people referred to the organization for donating blood during aforementioned years. Of these, 224 people had a history of hepatitis C disease, including 189 unmarried persons and the rest were married. 167 individuals were males and 57 individuals were females. People who had viral diseases were comprised of 76 persons with negative Rh and 148 positive persons with Rh. Future aims should include studies into blood groups and Rh types, according to the results of this study, in order to avoid the spread of blood-borne infections. Furthermore, further study is needed to establish the particular blood kinds that provide an elevated danger for classified donors.
Thromboprophylaxis in Oesophageal Cancer Patients – A Study Protocol for a Randomized, Controlled Trial (TOP-RCT)
Authors: Gyldenholm Tua , Madsen Nina , Katballe Niels , Kjær Daniel Willy , Christensen Thomas Decker , Hvas Anne Mette 
Published: April 2024

Abstract

Background
The purpose of the study is to examine if prolonged thromboprophylaxis decreases the risk of thrombosis after intended curative surgery for oesophageal cancer.
Study results are expected to inform a guideline for thromboprophylaxis after oesophageal cancer surgery. The perspective is to reduce morbidity and mortality in this critically ill patient group.
Thrombosis is the second-most common cause of cancer death after the cancer itself. The risk of thrombosis depends on the cancer type, and upper gastrointestinal cancers are considered high risk. This risk is further increased when patients undergo surgery. However, only few studies have investigated the peri- and postoperative coagulation profile in oesophageal cancer patients. Due to this lack of knowledge, prophylaxis is currently restricted to ten days of 5000 IU (International Units) low-molecular weight heparin daily after surgery, whereas patients with gastric cancer receive 30 days of treatment.
The present study examines whether a 30-day treatment is superior and safe, compared with the current ten-day treatment.
Methods
The study is a randomized controlled trial. Inclusion is ongoing, and we aim to include 100 patients. Blood samples are drawn before and after surgery, and the coagulation is extensively examined. The primary endpoint is the difference in plasma levels of prothrombin fragment 1+2 (F1+2) 30 days after surgery between the intervention and the standard group. Furthermore, patients are examined with ultrasound to screen for asymptomatic venous thrombotic events (VTE).
Secondary endpoints are incidence of bleeding, symptomatic and asymptomatic VTE and mortality 30 days and one year after surgery.
Discussion
The study will provide valuable information on the perioperative coagulation profile and VTE risk of oesophageal cancer patients. The study seeks to aid in optimising the postoperative thromboprophylaxis, and the perspective is to reduce morbidity and mortality in this at-risk patient population.
Trials registration
The trial was prospectively registered at the EU Clinical Trials Register with ID 2021-001335-24 on 30.06.2021 and at ClinicalTrials.gov with study identifier NCT05067153.
A novel c.59C&gt;T variant of the HSD17B10 gene as a possible cause of HSD10 mitochondrial disease with hepatic dysfunction: a case report and review of the literature
Authors: jiang tao , ouyang wenxian , yang haiyan , li shuangjie 
Published: April 2024

Abstract

Background
Pathogenic HSD17B10 gene variants cause HSD10 mitochondrial disease (HSD10 MD), which results in a wide spectrum of symptoms ranging from mild to severe. Typical symptoms include intellectual disability, choreoathetosis, cardiomyopathy, neurodegeneration, and abnormal behavior. This study aimed to investigate a novel c.59C > T variant of the HSD17B10 gene and the clinical phenotypic features of HSD10 MD (neonatal form) patients.
Results
We describe a 2-month and 12-day-old Chinese boy with intellectual disability, metabolic acidosis, hyperlactatemia, hypoglycemia, cholestatic hepatitis and myocardial enzyme levels, slightly elevated 2-methyl-3-hydroxybutyric acid (2M3HBA) levels and early death. Although full-length sequencing of the mitochondrial genome was normal, whole-exome sequencing of the proband and his parents revealed a novel de novo heterozygous variant, c.59C > T (p.S20L), of the HSD17B10 gene. Molecular dynamics simulation analysis and protein structural analysis have suggested that the c.59C > T (p.S20L) mutation may disrupt the conformational stability of the protein. According to the combined results of phenotypic analysis, molecular genetic analysis, protein structural analysis and molecular dynamics simulation analysis, this novel mutation is currently considered a likely pathogenic variant. HSD10 MD (neonatal form) can lead to hepatic dysfunction.
Conclusions
HSD10 MD (neonatal form) can lead to hepatic dysfunction. The de novo c.59C > T HSD17B10 variant suggested a neonatal form of the HSD10 mitochondrial disease phenotype in a 2-month and 12-day-old patient, broadening the variant spectrum of HSD17B10-related disease.

Authors: Hwang Sungjun , Kim Jae Hyun , Yu Su Jong , Lee Jeong Min 
Published: April 2024

Abstract

Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) offers a minimally invasive treatment for small hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), yet faces challenges like high local recurrence rates. A novel approach using a three-channel, dual RF generator with separable clustered electrodes aims to improve RFA's efficacy and safety. This prospective study, conducted from January 2020 to July 2022, evaluated a high-power, gradual, stepwise RFA method on HCCs (≤4 cm), utilizing real-time US-CT/MR fusion imaging. The study, involving 110 participants with 116 HCCs, reported no major complications. Local tumor progression (LTP) and intrahepatic remote recurrence (IRR) were low, with 1-year, 2-year, and 3-year cumulative incidences showing promising rates of LTP (0.9%, 3.6%, 7.0%) and IRR (13.9%, 20.5%, 31.4%). Recurrence-free survival (RFS) rates were similarly encouraging: LTP (99.1%, 96.4%, 93.0%) and IRR (86.1%, 79.5%, 68.6%). This innovative gradual, incremental high-power RFA technique, featuring a dual switching monopolar mode and multiple electrodes, represents an effective and safer management option for small HCCs.
