Abstract

This study aims to investigate the factors associated with the performance of specialized procedures and the achievement of periodontics goals in Brazilian dental specialty centers(BDSCs).Methodology: This Cross-sectional, exploratory, descriptive, and analytical study. The database of the second cycle of the External Evaluation of the National Program for Improving Access and Quality (PMAQ, Programa Nacional de Melhoria do Acesso e da Qualidade) was utilized, which assessed 1,042 BDSCs on-site in 2018. The data were analyzed using multiple Poisson regression, estimating the prevalence ratio (PR).Results: A third of the BDSCs (305) performed all specialized procedures, with a higher prevalence observed in those with more than one bicarbonate jet prophylaxis unit (RP=2.12; 95% CI: 1.160-3.881) and when they had a higher percentage of specialist professionals (RP=1.004; 95% CI: 1.002-1.006). The periodontics goal was achieved by 617 (59.2%) BDSCs, with a higher prevalence among those who had a manager with supplementary training (PR=1.21; 95% CI: 1.100-1.335) and with a higher workload for the periodontist dentist (PR=1.15; 95% CI: 1.103-1.201).Conclusion: The provision of specialized periodontics services in BDSCs and the achievement of goals are influenced by the quantity and professional qualifications, as well as the availability of equipment.
The wave packet shape of a quantum system: How are the properties and behavior of a quantum system depends fundamentally on uncertainty in its position?
Authors: Mostafa Mohamed 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
In this work we determine the parameter that characterized different wave packets from each other for different quantum systems. We find a specific definition for this parameter by relate the statistical distribution of the quantum system to the quantum fluctuations of the vacuum, and thus we find the mechanism by which the wave packet changes at every measurement-interaction with it. We also explain an important practical aspect of this mechanism.

Abstract

Objective
The objective of this research was to develop and validate a novel prognostic model for predicting overall survival (OS) in patients diagnosed with melanoma.
Methods
Based on data (n = 752) from patients diagnosed with melanoma between January 2017 and December 2020 in Chongqing University Cancer Hospital in China, we randomly divided them into two cohorts: a training cohort (n = 527) and a validation cohort (n = 225) in a 7:3 ratio. We conducted logistic univariable and multivariable analysis to identify independent risk factors for OS in melanoma patients, which were then integrated into a nomogram. The nomogram was internally validated to ensure its reliabitly. The predictive effectiveness of the nomogram was assessed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) and calibration curve. Decision curve analysis (DCA) curves were also utilized to evaluate the model’ prediction ability.
Results
A total of 752 melanoma patients were included in the analysis. The nomogram incorporated seven independent risk factors for melanoma patients, including age, basic-disease, surgery, tumor node metastasis (TNM), chemotherapy, interleukin2, lactate-dehydrogenase (LDH). The C-indices for OS to predict the 1-, 3-, and 5- years survival retes were 0.704 (0.643–0.766),0.742 (0.685–0.799),0.740 (0.663–0.817) in the training cohort, and 0.733 (0.647–0.818),0.714 (0.624–0.803),0.710 (0.591–0.830) in the validation cohort, respectively. The calibration curve showed a strong agreement between nomogram and actual observations for the probability of survival in both the training and validation cohorts. The calibration plots and DCA of the nomogram demonstrated excellent concordance between the predicted and actual probabilities.
Conclusions
We developed and validated a predictive nomogram for OS in melanoma patients. This nomogram provided a reliable and user-friendly approach to forecast the survival outcomes of individuals with melanoma. The application of this innovative model has the potential to facilitate personalized early detection and treatment strategies, thereby benefiting patients with melanoma.
Zinc oxide doping graphene oxide composites by brush coating for uniformly one-side formation thin films
Authors: Oh Jin Young , Yang Da-Bin , Lee Dong Wook , Jeong Hae-Chang , Seo Dae-Shik 
Published: November 2023

Abstract

We investigated the alignment properties of liquid crystals (LC) on a brush-coated composite film made of graphene oxide and zinc oxide (GO-ZnO). The GO-ZnO composites were prepared using a sol-gel solution process, and the resulting solution was brush-coated onto indium tin oxide (ITO) glass. During the annealing process, an anisotropic roughened surface was created; however, the crystallinity analysis of GO-ZnO indicated that the brushed coating did not affect the crystalline structure significantly. The LC molecules exhibited stable alignment characteristics owing to the aligned surface roughness and hydrophilic properties of GO-ZnO, resulting in a homogeneously aligned structure. Residual DC measurements showed similar levels as the conventional rubbed polyimide cells, and a switching voltage of 1.7 V was observed. Brush coating is a cost-effective and simple deposition/alignment process, making it crucial in terms of cost-efficiency and process simplicity.
Optical and electronic properties of pyrite
Authors: Nzulu Gabriel , Magnusson Martin , Mgnusson Roger 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
The optical and electronic properties of pyrite (FeS2) mineral have been investigated by ex-situ spectroscopic ellipsometry measurements made on pristine (bulk) FeS2. This method offers an alternative to petrographic microscopes used in many laboratories, as well as, in education and research institutions to study optical properties of rocks and minerals. The ability of spectroscopic ellipsometry to determine the dielectric function {ε (E) = ε1 (E) + iε2 (E)} of the material from its structural morphology, band gap, and electrical conductivity within the infrared spectral range (0.73–5.9 eV) is an added advantage over the optical microscopy that require ample time for thin section sample preparation to enable an optical light beam to be transmitted or reflected. As shown in this work, petrographic analyses of rocks and minerals using spectroscopic ellipsometry is a useful technique for optical studies of rocks and minerals with an added advantage over petrographic microscopy (optical microscopy).

Published: November 2023

Balinese English which is in this article called Balish has an important role in the world of tourism, namely as one of the most important capital for workers in the field of tourism, and they use Balish. Tourism workers are classified as lower class such as merchants, masseurs, parking attendants, shop assistants or kiosks, etc. Balish lexicon has gone through morphological processes. These are the proofs that linguistics has been affected, particularly in the field of morphology. Therefore, this article aims to find Balish lexicon along with their morphological processes. The data were taken from tourism workers at Ubud and Tanah Lot. Documentation method and note-taking technique were applied in collecting the data. Yule’s theory of word formation (2020) and morphological processes theory from O’Grady & Archibald (2016) were applied in analyzing the data through descriptive-qualitative method. The results of the research show that there are 12 types of morphological processes found, namely compounding, blending, borrowing, clipping, conversion, initialism, acronym, inflection and derivation, coinage, and multiple processes. The research proves that morphological process is still relevant and has always been the fundamental base in the formation of new lexemes in a constantly advancing world.

Daya ingat anak-anak terhadap suatu hal akan tertanam tajam jika disampaikan melalui cerita dongeng. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan pemanfaatan cerita fantasi sebagai upaya untuk menarik perhatian anak-anak ketika melaksanakan peroses kegiatan belajar mengajar di kelas. Hal tersebut seperti yang dilaksanakan di SDN 3 Kedung Jepara, dalam pembelajaran yang berlangsung para guru memanfaatkan cerita dongeng yang memuat kisah cerita religi atau keagamaan. Tujuan penelitian untuk mendeskripsikan bagaimana cerita dongeng religi membentuk karakter siswa SDN 3 Kedung Jepara. Dalam penelitian ini digunakan metode penelitan kualitatif dengan pendekatan multidisplin dalam penelitian terhadap pendidikan karakter melalui cerita dongeng bagi siswa SDN 3 Kedung Jepara. Langkah-langkah penelitian yang dilakukan adalah pengambilan data berdasarkan prosedur yang disampaikan Moleong (2002:85), yaitu (1) Tahap Pralapangan, (2) Tahap Kerja (3) Tahap Analisa Data. Para siswa SDN 3 Kedung Jepara menyukai dongeng terutama pada dongeng-dongeng yang bermuara pada kisah-kisah religi. Dalam pembelajaran yang berlangsung, para guru memanfaatkan cerita dongeng dengan tema religi dikarenakan anak-anak menyukai cerita nabi dan kebiasaan masyarakat setempat yang cenderung agamis serta gemar tolong-menolong. Terlebih di kalangan msyarakat setempat, didapati budaya masyarakat pedesaan yang cenderung memiliki pegangan agama yang kuat dan memiliki budaya tolong-menolong begitu kendal bagi segenap lapisan masyarakat. Sehingga selanjutnya, tema-tema religius dan tolong-menolong tersebut begitu melekat dalam cerita dongeng yang diberikan kepada para siswa. Dengan demikian, ketika para guru memanfaatkan cerita religi untuk dijadikan cerita dongeng pada pembelajaran, para siswa akan tertarik, semangat, dan bahkan merasa senang.

Data didapatkan dengan observasi, kajian referensi, dan wawancara yang selanjutnya dianalisis dengan telaah kualitatif-deskriptif. Hasil riset, warga di Kudus ada yang masih mempertahankan Saminisme berupa tidak menyekolahkan anaknya di sekolah formal dan pernikahannya tak dicatatkan pada Dukcapil. Akibatnya menerima stigma dari warga non-Samin berdampak banyaknya warga Samin yang keluar dari Samin. Agar komunitas Samin eksis, upaya yang dilakukan tokoh Samin di Kudus (1) mencatatkan perkawinan warga Samin dengan diawali mendaftarkan komunitasnya berbadan hukum, dan (2) melakukan temu rutin warga Samin untuk mendalami ajaran Samin. Pemkab Kudus merespons positif upaya warga Samin dengan menghadiri perkawinan di rumah warga Samin ketika kawin perdana warga Samin dicatatkan, menerbitkan akta kawinnya, dan menerbitkan perubahan kolom agama warga Samin yang semula tertulis setrip (-) menjadi penghayat kepercayaan. Pemerintah Kabupaten Kudus harus melakukan upaya memberi pemahaman pada warga Samin bahwa tidak mencatatkan perkawinan adalah melanggar undang-undang Perkawinan dan Administrasi Kependudukan.
