Published: December 2023

In a globalised world where cross-cultural communication is becoming increasingly
important, the ability to communicate effectively in various contexts through spoken
language is crucial. Multiliteracy enables individuals to communicate effectively and
confidently in a variety of contexts, both within their own culture and across cultures.
Digital storytelling utilises diverse modes of communication, promotes creativity and
global communication, and integrates technology in the learning process, making it a
valuable tool for multiliteracy pedagogy. Thus, the study aims to show how multiliteracy
pedagogy elements are incorporated into English as a Foreign Language speaking class
through digital storytelling. This is a pilot study in which thematic analysis is used to find
the themes within four knowledge processes of multiliteracy pedagogy in digital
storytelling activity. The findings show that through experience, the students can practise
speaking in an authentic context, develop their language skills through conceptualising
and analysing their stories, and receive feedback from peers and teachers. Therefore,
digital storytelling achieves the purpose of representing all four elements of multiliteracy
pedagogy, namely, situated practice, overt instruction, critical framing, and transformed
practice which facilitate the growth of speaking proficiency.

Chemmeen (1956), a Malayalam novel by Thakazhi, narrates a love story set in a fishing village. Its first English translation was done by Menon in 1962. This translation became the source text for a French translation in 1965. The French translation, being an indirect translation from Malayalam through English, mirrors largely the English version. This study focusses on studying how the various terms of address employed in the original Malayalam text have been translated into English and if they have influenced the French version. Newmark’s (1988) typology of translation procedures is employed to identify the procedures adopted in translating the terms of address into the mediating translation. Koller’s type of equivalences is applied to study what sort of equivalence has been achieved and the extent the mediating translation has influenced the French translation. The findings show that the English translation has, for the most part, communicated the address forms by providing descriptive and functional equivalents that do little to capture the original essence of the terms, resulting in their cultural significance not adequately portrayed. The French version, based on the English translation, has been clearly influenced by the mediating translation and hence does not convey the fishermen’s socio-cultural dimension effectively.

Published: December 2023

Objective: Implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs), which are used in the treatment of fatal ventricular arrhythmias, have many life-saving benefits. On the other hand, it has negative effects in terms of physical, social and psychological aspects by commonly causing anxiety and depression. The aim of this study is to examine the effects of education and telephone monitoring on self-efficacy and shock anxiety in patients with implantable cardioverter defibrillator implantation.
Methods: 65 patients hospitalized for ICD insertion were randomly divided into intervention (n=33) and control (n=32) groups. The intervention group was given a training booklet prepared by one-on-one training about ICD. Telephone monitoring was performed once every two weeks for three months and then once a month. No intervention was applied to the control group. Self-Efficacy and Outcome Expectation Scales, Florida Shock Anxiety Scale were applied in the third and sixth months after ICD implantation in both groups.
Results: The self-efficacy scores at the sixth month were higher in the intervention group than in the control group (p=.03). There was no difference between the shock anxiety scores at 3 months (p=.58) and 6 months (p=.64) between the groups. Shock anxiety mean scores of both groups in the 6th month are lower than the mean scores in the 3rd month (p

Published: December 2023

Objective: Gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) is a biological fluid that has the unique capacity to reflect changes in periodontium to its protein composition, making it ideal for potential biomarkers. There is limited information about the mechanism of tooth eruption, for which GCF might provide valuable knowledge. This study aimed to provide a proteomic approach to investigate the composition of GCF obtained from two different supraosseous tooth eruption stages of permanent molars changes.
Methods: GCF samples were taken from a total of 26 healthy children, whose permanent molar just emerged from the gingiva (5-8 years old) and the occlusal equilibrium stage (9-13 years old). Proteins were extracted with Bio-Rad Rehydration Buffer followed by ZebaTM Spin Desalting Column. GCF samples were separated with two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2D-PAGE) followed by mass spectrometry- based protein identification.
Results: A new optimized protocol with enriched protein extraction from GCF samples was developed. Several proteins related to tooth eruption were detected. It was determined that keratin type II cytoskeletal 4 and keratin type I cytoskeletal 9 decreased and albumin increased in GCF protein content in erupting teeth compared to those in the occlusal equilibrium phase.
Conclusion: This methodology, which we have applied for 2D-PAGE of GCF, can also be a source for other studies. There is huge diagnostic potential in mass spectrometry technologies, this study can be carried forward by using other approaches.

Published: December 2023

Purpose: Increased incidence of anterior cruciate ligament injuries has amplified the need for quantitative research in clinical and academic settings. We used a novel digital arthrometer to measure knee laxity in healthy people and patients with anterior cruciate ligament injuries. Changes in stiffness were also assessed to develop new indicators for detecting anterior cruciate ligament injury. The purpose of this study was to use arthrometer to measure the quantitative indicator of knee laxity, bringing clinicians a new perspective on how to identify injury to the ACL.Methods: In this cross-sectional study, anterior tibial displacement under continuous loading was measured using a novel digital arthrometer in 30 patients with unilateral anterior cruciate ligament injury and 30 healthy controls. Load-displacement curves were plotted, using real-time load and displacement changes. Stiffness was defined by the slope of the applied load to tibial displacement. Anterior tibial displacement and instantaneous stiffness values under different loads were compared. The restricting contribution of the anterior cruciate ligament transformed the displacement-stiffness curve from a sharp decrease to a stable increase, resulting in a minimum stiffness value. Using the minimum stiffness as the turning point, the load-displacement curve was divided into regions 1 and 2. The two regions’ stiffness changes were compared. Based on the findings, receiver operating characteristic curves were plotted and the area under the curve was calculated to estimate the diagnostic accuracy.Results: Anterior tibial displacement was significantly greater in the anterior cruciate ligament injury group than in the controls under each 10-N increase load (p &lt; 0.05). In the anterior cruciate ligament injury group, instantaneous stiffness was significantly lower on the injured side than on the healthy side (p &lt; 0.05). In the two regions of the load-displacement curve, stiffness was significantly lower in the anterior cruciate ligament injury group than in the control group (all, p &lt; 0.05). Receiver operating characteristic curves were plotted, using changes in stiffness under the two regions in both groups. Stiffness in region 2 had the largest area under the curve (0.94; 95% CI, 0.88–0.99). Using the cut-off value of 9.62 N/mm to detect ACL injury, the sensitivity and specificity were 93% and 82%, respectively.Conclusion: Our investigation of ligament stiffness provides novel insights into the properties of knee laxity. Stiffness in the later stages of increased loading &lt;9.62 N/mm could be a valid indicator for identifying knee laxity.

Published: December 2023

PurposeThe identification of Aspergillus by metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) remains a challenging task due to the difficulty of nucleic acid extraction. The objective of this study was to determine whether mNGS could provide an accurate and efficient method for detecting invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) in immunocompromised patients (ICP).MethodsA total of 133 ICP admitted to the ICU between January 2020 and September 2022 were enrolled in the study, of which 46 were diagnosed with IPA and 87 were non-IPA cases. The bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was analyzed for the presence of Aspergillosis and other co-pathogens using mNGS, and its diagnostic performance was compared to conventional microbial tests (CMTs) that included smear, cultures, serum and BALF galactomannan (GM) test. Clinical composite diagnosis was used as the reference standardResultsmNGS had a sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of 82.6%, 97.7%, and 92.5%, respectively, in diagnosing IPA. These findings were comparable to those of the combination of multiple CMTs. Interestingly, the sensitivity of mNGS was superior to that of any single CMT method, as demonstrated by comparisons with smears (8.7%, P &lt; 0.001), culture (39.1%, P &lt; 0.001), serum GM (23.9%, P &lt; 0.001) and BALF GM (69.6%, P = 0.031). mNGS was capable of accurately distinguish strains of Aspergillus genus, with a consistency of 77.8% with culture. Furthermore, mNGS also identified A. fumigatus, A. flavus, A. terrestris, A. oryzae and Mucor spp. in culture-negative cases. The sequencing reads of Aspergillus by mNGS exhibited extensive variation, ranging from 11 to1702. A positive correlation was observed between the optical density index of BALF GM and unique reads by mNGS (r = 0.607, P = 0.001) in BALF-GM positive patients. Notably, mNGS was able to diagnose 35 out of 37 cases with mixed infection, with P. jirovecii and cytomegalovirus being the most common co-pathogens.ConclusionsmNGS presents a feasible and remarkably sensitive approach for detecting Aspergillus in ICP, thereby serving as a valuable adjunctive tool to CMT. Furthermore, mNGS’s ability to accurately identify fungal species and co-pathogens can assist in guiding appropriate antimicrobial therapy.

Published: December 2023

IntroductionFew studies have examined the sales of stolen account credentials on darkweb markets. In this study, we tested how advertisement characteristics affect the popularity of illicit online advertisements offering account credentials. Unlike previous criminological research, we take a novel approach by assessing the applicability of knowledge on regular consumer behaviours instead of theories explaining offender behaviour.MethodsWe scraped 1,565 unique advertisements offering credentials on a darkweb market. We used this panel data set to predict the simultaneous effects of the asking price, endorsement cues and title elements on advertisement popularity by estimating several hybrid panel data models.ResultsMost of our findings disconfirm our hypotheses. Asking price did not affect advertisement popularity. Endorsement cues, including vendor reputation and cumulative sales and views, had mixed and negative relationships, respectively, with advertisement popularity.DiscussionOur results might suggest that account credentials are not simply regular products, but high-risk commodities that, paradoxically, become less attractive as they gain popularity. This study highlights the necessity of a deeper understanding of illicit online market dynamics to improve theories on illicit consumer behaviours and assist cybersecurity experts in disrupting criminal business models more effectively. We propose several avenues for future experimental research to gain further insights into these illicit processes.

ObjectivePeople adjusting to living with a chronic disability, such as chronic pain, seek support and resources from societal systems, including health systems, to help them cope with this reality. This case study describes the use of a digital health platform designed to help in that quest.MethodMyHealthMyRecord (MHMR), is being developed to record, register and curate personal private experiences of a chronic condition. MHMR allows users to record and log short (30–90s) personal and private audio-videos of their accommodation-seeking journey in a way that can be encrypted, registered, curated and shared privately. This case study describes the use of a prototype version of the platform by a participant co-designer who experienced a sudden onset of a chronic pain condition, of undetermined origin. System use began three months after the onset of the condition and just after being discharged from several months of hospitalization without any definitive diagnosis.ResultDuring a three-month period, 65 short unstructured contributions were authored and logged. This paper presents a qualitative analysis of that content. The clips used various communication styles that documented experiences, concerns, issues, positive and negative interactions and pain episodes. Using thematic analysis with open coding, three domains (person-facing, accessibility and system-facing) and eight themes (pain, joy, therapy, environmental, recommendations, technical, culture and communication) were identified. Comments about pain, stress, etc., were the most common and occurred in 75% of all videos while technical and therapy/physio related comments were the fewest and occurred in 3 and 9% of the videos, respectively.ConclusionWe conclude that it is possible to create recordings of events, thoughts, reflections and issues on different aspects affecting an individual's health and well-being impact, including effects of the chronic condition as well as tangential outcomes such as accessibility (or lack of it), using MHMR over a longer period of time. The next steps will be to develop functionality to annotate the recordings, automatically analyze and summarize collections of recordings to make them consumable, useful and understandable to the individual and others, and then to share those analyses and summaries with others. In addition, evaluate this functionality longitudinally with more users.
Allopregnanolone pleiotropic action in neurons and astrocytes: calcium signaling as a unifying mechanism
Authors: Wang Tian , Chen Shuhua , Mao Zisu , Shang Yuan , Brinton Roberta Diaz 
Published: December 2023

ObjectiveAllopregnanolone (Allo) is a neurosteroid with pleiotropic action in the brain that includes neurogenesis, oligogenesis, human and rodent neural stem cell regeneration, increased glucose metabolism, mitochondrial respiration and biogenesis, improved cognitive function, and reduction of both inflammation and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathology. Because the breadth of Allo-induced responses requires activation of multiple systems of biology in the absence of an Allo-specific nuclear receptor, analyses were conducted in both neurons and astrocytes to identify unifying systems and signaling pathways.MethodsMechanisms of Allo action were investigated in embryonic hippocampal neurons and astrocytes cultured in an Aging Model (AM) media. Cellular morphology, mitochondrial function, and transcriptomics were investigated followed by mechanistic pathway analyses.ResultsIn hippocampal neurons, Allo significantly increased neurite outgrowth and synaptic protein expression, which were paralleled by upregulated synaptogenesis and long-term potentiation gene expression profiles. Mechanistically, Allo induced Ca2+/CREB signaling cascades. In parallel, Allo significantly increased maximal mitochondrial respiration, mitochondrial membrane potential, and Complex IV activity while reducing oxidative stress, which required both the GABAA and L-type Ca2+ channels. In astrocytes, Allo increased ATP generation, mitochondrial function and dynamics while reducing oxidative stress, inflammasome indicators, and apoptotic signaling. Mechanistically, Allo regulation of astrocytic mitochondrial function required both the GABAA and L-type Ca2+ channels. Furthermore, Allo activated NRF1-TFAM signaling and increased the DRP1/OPA1 protein ratio, which led to increased mitochondrial biogenesis and dynamics.ConclusionCollectively, the cellular, mitochondrial, transcriptional, and pharmacological profiles provide evidence in support of calcium signaling as a unifying mechanism for Allo pleiotropic actions in the brain.

Published: December 2023

Lead in yard soils has been recognized as the principal source of excess lead absorption among young children. The hazard imposed by soil lead is dependent on the geochemical forms of lead in soils. Soil properties such as pH, soil organic matter, clay, and carbonate content influence the geochemical forms of lead in soil. This study was conducted to investigate the correlation between soil properties and the geochemical speciation of lead in lead paint-contaminated residential soils from three major US cities. A comprehensive field survey was conducted, involving the collection of soils from ten houses in each of the cities: Baltimore, San Antonio, and Detroit. The influence of soil properties on geochemical speciation was analyzed to identify effective immobilization amendments for each soil type. Results showed that soils collected from San Antonio were slightly alkaline, whereas those from Baltimore were slightly acidic. Soils collected from Detroit were neutral to mildly alkaline in pH. San Antonio soils had relatively high soil salinity, high clay content, moderate to high soil organic matter (SOM), and high total carbon (TC). In contrast, soils collected from Baltimore had lower salinity and clay content, low SOM, and total carbon. Soils from Detroit exhibited relatively high salinity, clay, SOM, and TC contents. The average total soil lead concentrations were as follows; San Antonio 4,073 mg/kg, Baltimore 2,706 mg/kg, and Detroit 850 mg/kg. Geochemical speciation studies revealed significant differences in lead distribution among the studied soils. San Antonio soils exhibited high carbonate-bound and organic matter-bound fractions, while Baltimore soils had elevated soluble + exchangeable fractions. Detroit soils showed substantial lead in organic matter-bound fractions. Correlation analysis showed that the soil properties influencing exchangeable lead, were pH, total Al, and total Ca for San Antonio soils; pH and total P for Baltimore soils; and SOM and total Al for Detroit soils. Correlation analysis showed that there is a significant negative correlation (p &lt; 0.05) between exchangeable lead and total Al (r = −0.653), and total Ca (r = −0.438) for San Antonio soils; pH (r = −0.286) and total p (r = −0.314) for Baltimore soils; and SOM (r = −0.628) and total Al (r = −0.408) for Detroit soils. Based on these results, the best potential immobilization amendments for each of these cities were predicted.

Published: December 2023

We hydrothermally synthesized a flower-shaped ZnO/ZnIn2S4(ZnO/ZIS) Z-scheme heterojunction, which could decompose antibiotics efficiently. Meanwhile, the photocatalysts degradation of sulfamethoxazole (SMX) as the representative pollutant by ZnO/ZIS were studied deeply. When irradiated by a xenon lamp (500 W), ZnO/ZIS (0.20 g/L) degraded SMX (2.5 mg/L) in 6.5 h with an efficiency of 74.9%. The O2− and h+ played key roles in the visible light-assisted decomposition of SMX by ZnO/ZIS, while the role of OH was supplementary. Additionally, we investigated the mechanism of the generation of active species environmentally persistent free radicals (PFRs) within the SMX degradation using ZnO/ZIS by performing computations and experimental analyses based on density functional theory. Besides, PFRs (predominantly oxygen-centered) generated during the visible light-assisted SMX degradation by ZnO/ZIS had a concentration of 1011 spin/mm3. The generation of PFRs involves two major events, i.e., chemical adsorption and electron transfer. To adsorb the precursor F9a on ZnO, the energy required was −2.03 eV, and the electrons were transferred to the ZnO/ZnIn2S4 heterojunction from the precursor F9a. The PFRs only had minor negative impacts on the SMX degradation through ZnO/ZIS.
