Abstract
Background
The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted health care delivery, including cancer screening practices. This study sought to determine the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown on colorectal cancer (CRC) screening relative to social vulnerability.

Methods
Using the Medicare Standard Analytic File, individuals 65 years old or older who were eligible for guideline-concordant CRC screening between 2019 and 2021 were identified. These data were merged with the Center for Disease Control Social Vulnerability Index (SVI) dataset. Changes in county-level monthly screening volumes relative to the start of the COVID-19 pandemic (March 2020) and easing of restrictions (March 2021) were assessed relative to SVI.

Results
Among 10,503,180 individuals continuously enrolled in Medicare with no prior diagnosis of CRC, 1,362,457 (12.97%) underwent CRC screening between 2019 and 2021. With the COVID-19 pandemic, CRC screening decreased markedly across the United States (median monthly screening: pre-pandemic [n = 76,444] vs pandemic era [n = 60,826]; median Δn = 15,618; p < 0.001). The 1-year post-pandemic overall CRC screening utilization generally rebounded to pre-COVID-19 levels (monthly median screening volumes: pandemic era [n = 60,826] vs post-pandemic [n = 74,170]; median Δn = 13,344; p < 0.001). Individuals residing in counties with the highest SVI experienced a larger decline in CRC screening odds than individuals residing in low-SVI counties (reference, low SVI: pre-pandemic high SVI [OR, 0.85] vs pandemic high SVI [OR, 0.81] vs post-pandemic high SVI [OR, 0.85]; all p < 0.001).

Conclusions
The COVID-19 pandemic was associated with a decrease in CRC screening volumes. Patients who resided in high social vulnerability areas experienced the greatest pandemic-related decline.
Tożsamość geografii społeczno-ekonomicznej i gospodarki przestrzennej: Geneza, współczesne relacje i wyzwania przyszłości
Authors: Suliborski Andrzej , Wójcik Marcin 
Published: February 2024

Od kilku lat funkcjonujemy w Polsce w sytuacji nowego podziału nauki. Wpłynęło to w zasadniczy sposób na różne płaszczyzny działań badaczy, tym bardziej że została wyróżniona w dziedzinie nauk społecznych dyscyplina o nazwie geografia społeczno-ekonomiczna i gospodarka przestrzenna. Dualizm, który jest zawarty w tym układzie funkcji naukowych i praktycznych, skłania do refleksji nad kwestiami budowania tożsamości tej dyscypliny. W artykule odnosimy się do genezy, współczesnych relacji i wyzwań w zakresie tożsamości ideowej i przedmiotowej dyscypliny. Podejmujemy próbę identyfikacji i wyjaśnienia wspólnego zakresu przedmiotowego i metodycznego. Dochodzimy do wniosku, że pola badawcze subdyscyplin tworzących nową dyscyplinę naukową w wielu płaszczyznach się pokrywają. Wynika to z m.in. z ich tożsamości genetycznej, jak i częściowo wspólnych współczesnych założeń teoretyczno-metodologicznych. Uważamy, że rozwój naukowy gospodarki przestrzennej musi być kompatybilny z dorobkiem naukowym geografii społeczno-ekonomicznej, przez odwoływanie się do jej ogólnej filozofii badawczej oraz założeń teoretycznych ujęcia przestrzennego (co jest częściowo czynione), a także wykorzystanie dorobku naukowego innych nauk podstawowych, w których istnieją nurty przestrzenne. Jesteśmy przekonani, że ważną stymulantą rozwoju dyscypliny jest absorpcja przez gospodarkę przestrzenną dorobku poznawczego oraz teoretyczno-metodologicznego geografii społeczno-ekonomicznej (geografii człowieka) pozyskanego w ramach rozwoju w niej nurtu społeczno-humanistycznego oraz jego wykorzystanie w praktyce gospodarczej. Ważnym czynnikiem wzmacniającym pozycję naukową całej dyscypliny może być położenie nacisku na utylitarne wykorzystanie jej osiągnięć poznawczych, gdzie szczególną rolę należy przypisać gospodarce przestrzennej i kierunkowi geografii stosowanej.
Podstawy ontologiczne i epistemologiczne dziedziny empirycznej geografii w świetle ontologii Johna Searle’a (artykuł dyskusyjny)
Authors: Butowski Leszek 
Published: February 2024

Artykuł dotyczy sytuacji metodologicznej geografii (nauk geograficznych) w odniesieniu do podstaw ontologicznych jej dziedziny empirycznej oraz statusu uzyskiwanej wiedzy geograficznej (aspekt epistemologiczny). Refleksja prowadzona jest w tradycji filozofii analitycznej, z wykorzystaniem osiągnięć metodologii ogólnej. Wykorzystano w niej założenia ontologii społecznej Searle’a, w tym jego trzy kryteria analityczne. Posłużyły one do określenia natury dziedziny empirycznej geografii (aspekt ontologiczny) oraz możliwości jej opisu przy użyciu określonego typu zdań (sądów) (aspekt epistemologiczny). Kryteria te objęły następujące rozróżnienia: (1) cechy własne versus cechy nadane (funkcje) bytów składających się na dziedzinę empiryczną geografii; (2) sposób istnienia tych bytów w świecie: ich ontologiczny obiektywizm versus ontologiczny subiektywizm; (3) rodzaje zdań opisujących byty tworzące dziedzinę empiryczną geografii: epistemologiczny obiektywizm versus epistemologiczny subiektywizm. Wyniki analizy pozwoliły na sformułowanie trzech głównych wniosków, na które złożyły się: (1) „dowód ontologiczny” uzasadniający podział dziedziny empirycznej geografii na geografię świata przyrody (fizyczną) i geografię świata stworzonego przez człowieka (społeczno-ekonomiczną); (2) ontologiczny podział bytów tworzących dziedzinę empiryczną geografii na byty istniejące obiektywnie i byty istniejące subiektywnie, uzasadniający wyodrębnienie się dwóch modeli metodologicznych stosowanych w geografii człowieka (społeczno-ekonomicznej): naturalistycznego – jego dziedzinę stanowią byty istniejące obiektywnie – i humanistycznego, którego dziedzinę stanowią byty istniejące subiektywnie; (3) postulat o konieczności nadania całej wiedzy geograficznej statusu wiedzy epistemicznie obiektywnej.
Geograficzne ujęcie przedsiębiorczosci wiejskiej – założenia kompleksowej koncepcji badań
Authors: Kulawiak Anita , Suliborski Andrzej 
Published: February 2024

Artykuł przedstawia kompleksowe spojrzenie na przedsiębiorczość wiejską. Jest on propozycją szerszej niż dotychczas interpretacji tego zagadnienia, które uwzględnia wiele różnych podejść i koncepcji badawczych nauk społecznych. Celem artykułu jest z jednej strony zwrócenie uwagi na problemy teoretyczne związane z badaniem przedsiębiorczości wiejskiej, w szczególności sposobu rozumienia tego terminu i zmian, jakie w tej kwestii się dokonały, z drugiej – zaprezentowanie nowego sposobu badania i analizy tego zagadnienia przez pryzmat koncepcji społecznych. Praca stanowi efekt dyskusji i przemyśleń autorów dotyczących spojrzenia na to zagadnienie, szczególnie na gruncie geografii społeczno-ekonomicznej, oraz kwerendy literatury krajowej i zagranicznej, głównie angielskojęzycznej. Przedstawione w niej podejście do badania przedsiębiorczości wiejskiej wynika z postrzegania jej w kontekście silnych związków z otoczeniem lokalnym (środowiskiem wiejskim).

Context: Angular gyrus is an anatomical structure of the brain located in the parietal lobe, taking part in writing and reading, language-use, memory and attention and spatial recognition. It is supplied by the angular gyrus artery, which is one of the caudal branches of the middle cerebral artery. One of the clinical pathologies of the angular gyrus artery is the ischemic stroke of the angular gyrus in the dominant hemisphere, responsible for the presence of Gerstmann Syndrome: left-right disorientation, agraphia, alexia, acalculia and finger agnosia. This systematic review aims to present the variety of anomalies of the main cerebral artery and the angular gyrus artery.
Objective: Preparing a systematic review of papers describing the course anomalies of the angular gyrus artery.
Materials and methods: PubMed and Google Scholar electronic databases was searched for phrases: ‘Angular gyrus artery’, ‘Artery of angular gyrus’, ‘Middle cerebral artery branches’, ‘Branches of middle cerebral artery’, ‘Gerstmann Syndrome’ published between years 2015 and 2023. Also 3 papers published before 2000 were used. From the selected 30 papers, 6 were used to prepare this analysis.
Results: The middle cerebral artery, from which arises the angular gyrus artery, is marked by a significant variety of its division, mainly the number of the dividing trunks of the artery. Depending on the type of the division, the angular gyrus artery can arise from the upper, middle or lower trunk and vary in sizes. It can also appear as a singular or two separate branches. Instances of the anomaly of both the angular gyrus artery and posterior parietal artery are rare, but reported.
Conclusions: The angular gyrus artery is characterised by a number of anomalies in its course, separation from the middle cerebral artery, diameter and branching.
Semiotika Riffaterre dalam Puisi “Baju Baru” Karya Joko Pinurbo
Authors: Abdullah Risen Dhawuh 
Published: February 2024

It is undeniable that poets often convey ideas with signs in the form of words, clauses, even sentences, thereby creating implicit or implicit messages. Studying a poem requires structural and semiotic analysis, because poetry is a structure of meaningful signs. Joko Pinurbo's poems contain many messages from deep anxiety. This study seeks to explain the meaning of related poetry according to Riffaterre's Semiotics theory. This research is a qualitative descriptive study. The material object in this research is a poem by Joko Pinurbo "Baju Baru". Meanwhile, the formal object is meaning based on language and literary conventions with Riffaterre's Semiotics theory which consists of heuristic readings, hermeneutic readings, as well as matrices, models and variants, hypograms. The results of the research through heuristic reading analysis found that fathers bought new clothes after payday because fathers' salaries increased. From the hermeneutic reading as a whole, the poem was created by the author as a form of outpouring of his heart as well as a form of criticism of the government for the phenomenon he is seeing, the increase in basic prices that afflict the lower class society, the matrix of the poem is a situation where basic needs soar, while workers' wages only increased slightly or even did not increase. The model of the poem is "gaji bapak" and "presiden". The variants consist of five variants. The first variant is "bapak gajian", the second variant is "reaksi si aku", the third variant is "perasaan presiden", the fourth variant is "kerusakan baju", the fifth variant is "keberadaan tukang becak dan presiden".
‘Satisficing’ in dentistry: who decides? who benefits?
Authors: Kelleher Martin , Lewis Kevin 
Published: February 2024

This series of articles challenges some popular myths about supposedly ‘ideal’ treatment plans, and is designed to provoke reflection and stimulate debate. It explains the concept of ‘satisficing’ (as opposed to ‘maximizing’) in dentistry, and illustrates how subconscious bias and self-interests might lead supposed experts to promote arbitrary aspirational standards and confuse them with what the law expects (the Bolam Test standard) and what is genuinely in the best interests of an individual patient. It is argued that sound, patient-centred pragmatic planning and treatment is equally valid, with wider applicability than routinely defaulting to a self-serving ‘maximalist’ approach, often on spurious grounds. CPD/Clinical Relevance: The ‘satisficing’ concept has wide and profound application across many fields of dentistry; this first part explains the basic principles and how and why it is relevant to various aspects of practical dentistry and also to our understanding of professionalism.
Dentifrices. Part 1: a general introduction
Authors: Valkenburg Cees , van der Weijden Fridus , Else Slot Dagmar 
Published: February 2024

This comprehensive review traces the evolution of dentifrices from ancient concoctions to modern formulations, evaluating their role in oral health and environmental impact. Despite the global burden of oral diseases, notably dental caries and periodontitis, advancements in dentifrice technology have contributed to the decline in caries prevalence, although periodontitis remains a challenge. The historical perspective outlines the transition from abrasive powders to fluoride-enriched pastes, emphasizing the significance of toothbrushing frequency and technique, alongside the use of dentifrices, for effective plaque control and caries prevention. The modern era has seen a proliferation of dentifrice variations, with a focus on cosmetic attributes often overshadowing therapeutic benefits. The review also discusses the environmental considerations of dentifrice production and disposal, highlighting the shift towards sustainable packaging and ingredient transparency. The market analysis reveals a mature industry with a projected growth, influenced by consumer preferences and oral hygiene awareness. CPD/Clinical Relevance: Regular toothbrushing with fluoridated dentifrice remains a cornerstone of oral hygiene practices, directly influencing the reduction of plaque accumulation and the incidence of caries and periodontitis.
“In His Eyes, I am Foreign to France”: Migration and Repatriation between France and Senegal, 1858–1911
Authors: Valdespino Gregory 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
Between 1858 and 1913, well over one hundred individuals in France sought state-sponsored repatriation to Senegal. The materials required for this process reveal how French and African actors sought to manage intra-imperial mobility as the French Empire expanded during the second half of the nineteenth century. Repatriation began as an ad hoc process used to maintain familial and professional ties between France and outposts off the coast of Senegal, but by the 1890s, it became a more formalized system that tried to limit unregulated African migration to the metropole. Despite these changes, Senegalese applicants used repatriation across this period to manage their mobility and household positions in social landscapes upended by enslavement, emancipation, and colonial expansion. These repatriation files shed light on the social lives of African migrants in the nineteenth century and changing attitudes towards intra-imperial migration.

Published: February 2024

Abstract

Problem
The frequency of liver cancer is rising worldwide, and it is a common, deadly condition. For successful treatment and patient survival, early and precise diagnosis is essential. The automated classification of liver cancer using medical imaging data has shown potential outcome when employing machine and deep learning (DL) approaches. To train deep neural networks, it is still quite difficult to obtain a large and diverse dataset, especially in the medical field.

Aim
This article classifies liver tumors and identifies whether they are malignant, benign tumor, or normal liver.

Methods
This study mainly focuses on computed tomography scans from the Radiology Institute in Baghdad Medical City, Iraq, and provides a novel transfer learning (TL) approach for the categorization of liver cancer using medical images. Our findings show that the TL-based model performs better at classifying data, as in our method, high-level characteristics from liver images are extracted using pre-trained convolutional neural networks compared to conventional techniques and DL models that do not use TL.

Results
The proposed method using models of TL technology (VGG-16, ResNet-50, and MobileNetV2) successfully achieves high accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity in identifying liver cancer, making it an important tool for radiologists and other healthcare professionals. The experiment results show that the diagnostic accuracy in the VGG-16 model is up to 99%, ResNet-50 model 100%, and 99% total classification accuracy was attained with the MobileNetV2 model.

Conclusion
This proves the improvement of models when working on a small dataset. The use of new layers also showed an improvement in the performance of the classifiers, which accelerated the process.

Abstract
Zoning-based organic farming has become increasingly attractive in Indonesia for producing healthy food, improving the quality of land and the environment, and increasing the welfare of farmers. The problem is that organic farming areas should be certified by a legal agency called the National Standardization Agency and the cost should be paid by farmers in those areas. Zoning allows the farmers to jointly manage farming areas, including payment of certification costs. However, the success of zoning-based organic farming implementation depends on farmers’ acceptability. This study aims to analyse perceptions and knowledge regarding zoning-based organic farming plans, measure the level of farmers’ willingness to accept (WTA) zoning-based organic farming plans and determine the effect of economic, ecological, and social support factors, as well as other factors towards WTA the zoning-based organic farming system. This study found that the majority of farmers perceive zoning-based organic farming as economically viable and ecologically and socially supported compared to conventional farming since most of the farmers have good knowledge regarding the importance of zoning. Although the farmers have long been experiencing conventional farming, the number of WTA farmers in zoning-based organic farming is very high. The study confirmed that the ecological aspect is the most influential in accepting zoning-based organic farming. Economic factors have a very strong influence on increasing farmers’ WTA zoning-based organic farming. This study also suggests that the implementation of zoning-based organic farming needs to be sustainably supported by the community.

Bank Resolution and Fundamental Rights
Authors: Kokott Juliane 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
This article deals in particular with the right to property of shareholders and creditors suffering from the negative consequences of bank resolution. Although the General Court recognizes the possibility of de facto infringements or expropriations falling within the scope of Article 17 of the Charter, the Court of Justice is reluctant in that regard. The application of the “no creditors worse off principle” may provide for the necessary protection under the condition, however, that a valuable ex ante evaluation of the bank´s assets is assured.
Bank Resolution and the European Convention on Human Rights – A Note from the UK
Authors: Moloney Niamh 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
This note considers human rights review of resolution decisions and processes – a context in which property rights can be limited or suspended given the operation of resolution decisions, including bail-in and sale decisions – in the context of the UK resolution regime and the relevance of the European Convention on Human Rights (the Convention) and the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the EU (the Charter) following the withdrawal of the UK from the EU. It outlines the UK framework, considers the current approach to rights review, and closes with the implications of the UK withdrawal from the EU on rights review, ex ante and ex post, against the Convention and Charter.
Suicide Risk Screening Tools for Pediatric Patients: A Systematic Review of Test Accuracy
Authors: Lowry Nathan J. , Goger Pauline , Hands Ruz Maria , Ye Fangfei , Cha Christine B. 
Published: February 2024

CONTEXT
Health care settings have increasingly adopted universal suicide risk screening tools into nonpsychiatric pediatric care; however, a systematic review examining the accuracy of these tools does not yet exist.

OBJECTIVE
Identify and review research on the test accuracy of suicide risk screening tools for pediatric patients in nonpsychiatric medical settings.

DATA SOURCES
PubMed and PsycINFO were searched to identify peer-reviewed articles published before March 23, 2023.

STUDY SELECTION
Articles that quantified the accuracy of a suicide risk screening tool (eg, sensitivity, specificity) in a nonpsychiatric medical setting (eg, primary care, specialty care, inpatient or surgical units, or the emergency department) were included.

DATA EXTRACTION
A total of 13 studies were included in this review. Screening tool psychometric properties and study risk of bias were evaluated.

RESULTS
Sensitivity among individual studies ranged from 50% to 100%, and specificity ranged from 58.8% to 96%. Methodological quality was relatively varied, and applicability concerns were low. When stratifying results by screening tool, the Ask Suicide-Screening Questions and Computerized Adaptive Screen for Suicidal Youth had the most robust evidence base.

LIMITATIONS
Because of considerable study heterogeneity, a meta-analytic approach was deemed inappropriate. This prevented us from statistically testing for differences between identified screening tools.

CONCLUSIONS
The Ask Suicide-Screening Questions and Computerized Adaptive Screen for Suicidal Youth exhibit satisfactory test accuracy and appear promising for integration into clinical practice. Although initial findings are promising, additional research targeted at examining the accuracy of screening tools among diverse populations is needed to ensure the equity of screening efforts.
