Authors: Farook Taseef Hasan , Ahmed Saif , Talukder Md Shoriful Islam , Dudley James 
Published: September 2023

Purpose
The current research aimed to develop a concept open-source 3D printable, electronic wearable head gear to record jaw movement parameters.

Materials & methods
A 3D printed wearable device was designed and manufactured then fitted with open-source sensors to record vertical, horizontal and phono-articulatory jaw motions. Mean deviation and relative error were measured invitro. The device was implemented on two volunteers for the parameters of maximum anterior protrusion (MAP), maximum lateral excursion (MLE), normal (NMO), and maximum (MMO) mouth opening and fricative phono-articulation. Raw data was normalized using z-score and root mean squared error (RMSE) values were used to evaluate relative differences in readings across the two participants.

Results
RMSE differences across the left and right piezoresistive sensors demonstrated near similar bilateral movements during normal (0.12) and maximal mouth (0.09) opening for participant 1, while varying greatly for participant 2 (0.25 and 0.14, respectively). There were larger differences in RMSE during accelerometric motion in different axes for MAP, MLE and Fricatives.

Conclusion
The current implementation demonstrated that a 3D printed electronic wearable device with open-source sensor technology can record horizontal, vertical, and phono-articulatory maxillomandibular movements in two participants. However, future efforts must be made to overcome the limitations documented within the current experiment.
The mechanism and effectiveness of mindfulness-based intervention for reducing the psychological distress of parents of children with autism spectrum disorder: A protocol of randomized control trial of ecological momentary intervention and assessment
Authors: Wang Qi , Ng Siu-man , Zhou Xiaochen 
Published: September 2023

Background
Existing studies have unequivocally demonstrated that parents of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) experience various stressful daily life events and suffer from psychological distress. Mindfulness level is found to be an effective buffer between parents’ appraisal of stress life events and psychological distress. However, the mechanism behind the function of mindfulness is unclear, and traditional mindfulness-based intervention (MBI) in experimental settings is not tailored to personal real-life needs. This study proposes to conduct a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to examine the effectiveness of MBI delivered by ecological momentary intervention (EMI) and assessed by ecological momentary assessment (EMA) in changing participants’ cognitive appraisal of stressful life events and thus reducing the psychological distress of parents of children with ASD.

Method
The proposed study will recruit 670 parents of children with ASD and randomly assign them to the intervention and control groups (335 in each group). Participants in the intervention group will install the EMI/A app on their smartphones. In the app, participants can receive practice prompts daily, browse and practice different mindfulness exercises in the intervention library at any time, talk to a virtual counselor (chatbot) when feeling stressed, complete EMA on the cognitive appraisal of life events, and receive the log of change of psychological status daily. Participants in the control group will only receive audio-based standardized mindfulness practice instructions three times per week. The effects of MBI will be assessed based on the EMA data, right after the intervention and at the 2-month follow-up. The primary outcome will be participants’ psychological distress measured by the depression anxiety stress scale. The secondary outcomes will include participants’ subjective well-being, measured by the satisfaction with life scale, and level of resilience, measured by the psychological empowerment scale. Multilevel structural equational modelling will be applied to examine the pathways of the relationship between daily life events, cognitive appraisal, and psychological distress.

Discussion
The potential benefit of the proposed study is to increase the psychological well-being of parents of children with ASD, and the method may extend to participants suffering from other psychological issues in the future.

Factors contributing to socio-economic inequality in utilization of caesarean section delivery among women in Indonesia: Evidence from Demographic and Health Survey
Authors: Kumar Pradeep , Srivastava Shobhit , Chaudhary Pratishtha , Muhammad T. 
Published: September 2023

Background
Most of the existing literature in developing countries focused on either the rising trend of CS or its determinants. There is a paucity of population-based studies on existing socioeconomic inequalities in availing CS services by women in Indonesia. This study aimed to assess the factors associated with caesarian section (CS) delivery and explore the various factors contributing to inequalities in CS delivery rates in Indonesia.

Methods
The study utilized nationally representative cross-sectional data from the Indonesia Demographic and Health Survey (IDHS), 2017. We conducted multivariable logistic regression to find the factors associated with CS delivery. Concentration index and Wagstaff’s decomposition analysis were used to examine the socioeconomic inequalities in CS delivery among women and associated factors.

Results
About 17% of women in Indonesia delivered babies through CS. A concentration index of 0.31 in CS delivery rate showed a higher CS delivery rate among women belonging to rich households. About 44.7% of socioeconomic status inequality in CS delivery was explained by educational status among women who went for CS delivery. Women’s place of residence explained 30.1% of socioeconomic inequality, and women’s age at first birth explained about 11.9% and reporting ANC visits explained 8.4% of the observed inequality. Highest socioeconomic inequality was witnessed in central Sulawesi (0.529), followed by Maluku (0.488) and West Kalimantan (0.457), whereas the lowest was recorded in Yogyakarta (0.021) followed by north Sulawesi (0.047) and east Kalimantan (0.171). Education (44.7%) followed by rural-urban place of residence (30.1%) and age of first birth (11.9%) contributed most to explain the gap in CS delivery among rich and poor women.

Conclusion
The study highlighted the higher CS delivery rates among women from higher socioeconomic groups and thus, it is important to frame policies after identifying the population subgroups with potential underuse or overuse of CS method of delivery.
Non-recurrent laryngeal nerve in thyroid and parathyroid surgery
Authors: Kuprin A. A. , Vetsheva N. N. , Abuladze I. O. 
Published: September 2023

BACKGROUND: the main reason for postoperative vocal folds paresis is the variable anatomy of the recurrent laryngeal nerve. An example of such an “extreme form of embryonal development» is the non-recurrent laryngeal nerve. However, many surgeons consider this structure to be a rare anomaly with prevalence less than 0.5%. This opinion is associated with a six to seven-fold increase in the number of vocal folds paresis when a surgeon encounters with a non-recurrent laryngeal nerve. Meanwhile, in cadaveric studies a significantly higher prevalence of non-recurrent laryngeal nerve was demonstrated — 2.2%. The right aberrant subclavian artery was diagnosed during CT in 3.1% patients.AIM: the aim of the study is to determine the effectiveness of preoperative ultrasound in detecting the right aberrant subclavian artery and non-recurrent laryngeal nerve.MATERIALS AND METHODS: patients underwent thyroid and parathyroid surgery with identification of a right inferior laryngeal nerve. The preoperative neck ultrasound was performed on all patients with visualization of a brachiocephalic trunk (Y-sign) or a right aberrant subclavian artery (AL-sign). CT-angiography was performed in the postoperative period on patients who had a non-recurrent laryngeal nerve.RESULTS: the study included 1476 patients. The Y-sign was determined among 1338 (90.7%) patients. In these cases a typical anatomy of the recurrent laryngeal nerve was observed. In 138 (9.3%) cases, the Y-sign was not detected. In this subgroup of patients, in 20 (1.4%) cases, a non-recurrent laryngeal nerve and a right aberrant subclavian artery were noted. Thus, the sensitivity of the Y-sign in confirming the normal anatomy of the recurrent laryngeal nerve was 100%, specificity — 91.9%, positive prognostic value — 14.5%, negative prognostic value — 100%. On the contrary, AL-sign was notedall 20 (1.4%) patients with non-recurrent laryngeal nerve and right aberrant subclavian artery. False positive and false negative results were not observed. Three variants of the non-recurrent laryngeal nerve were identified: type I (superior type) — located behind the upper third of the thyroid lobe, has a direct descending way and forms an angle to the larynx of 30–50°; type III (inferior type) — has a direct ascending way (simulates the course of the recurrent laryngeal nerve) and forms an angle to trachea in 30–50°; type II (middle type) — all variants of the non-recurrent laryngeal nerve located between types I and III.CONCLUSION: the preoperative ultrasound detection of brachiocephalic trunk (Y-sign) confirms the presence of a recurrent laryngeal nerve (sensitivity 100%), and visualization of the right aberrant subclavian artery (AL-sign) determines a non-recurrent laryngeal nerve (sensitivity and specificity 100%).

Authors: Yukina M. Yu. , Elfimova A. R. , Troshina E. A. , Melnichenko G. A. , Mokrysheva N. G. 
Published: September 2023

BACKGROUND: Currently, there are no data on the prevalence and incidence of insulinoma in Russia. The published world data on the epidemiology of the tumor are largely variable. Thus, it is important to systematize information on the prevalence and incidence of insulinoma in the world, including in Russia. AIM: To assess the prevalence and incidence of insulinoma in the world.TASKS Analysis of literature data.Analysis of the database of the Endocrinology Research Centre.MATERIALS AND METHODS: To implement Task 1, an analysis of foreign and Russian articles published in the PubMed and eLIBRARY.RU databases from 1927 was carried out until June 1, 2023, including the following keywords: «Insulinoma», «Epidemiology», «Frequency», «Incidence», «Nationwide», «Database». Based on the obtained results, an analysis of the prevalence and incidence of insulinoma in the world and in Russia was made. To implement Task 2, the analysis of patient records and the electronic database of the Endocrinology Research Centre was carried out.RESULTS: Based on data in individual countries the prevalence and incidence of insulinoma for the world population amounted to: an average of 16.4 per 1 million population and 0.9 per 1 million population per year, respectively. If extrapolating the world data, the number of patients with insulinoma in Russia can be 1066–2362 and 72–173 new cases are diagnosed annually (11.9 per 1 million population and 0.9 per 1 million population per year, respectively). The largest number of patients with insulinoma in Russia was recorded in the Endocrinology Research Centre and amounted to 275 cases for the period 2006–2022.CONCLUSION: In the Russian Federation, it is important to create a register of patients with insulinoma on the basis of the existing electronic database of the Endocrinology Research Centre in order to obtain accurate information about the current needs of patients with insulinoma in medical care and drug provision, as well as to conduct full-fledged scientific research.
Cardiovascular reflex contributions to sympathetic inhibition during low intensity dynamic leg exercise in healthy middle‐age

Published: September 2023

AbstractAging augments resting muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) and sympatho‐inhibition during mild dynamic 1‐leg exercise. To elucidate which reflexes elicit exercise‐induced inhibition, we recruited 19 (9 men) healthy volunteers (mean age 56 ± 9 SD years), assessed their peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak), and, on another day, measured heart rate (HR), blood pressure (BP) and MSNA (microneurography) at rest and during 1‐leg cycling (2 min each at 0 load and 30%–40% VO2peak), 3 times: (1) seated +2 min of postexercise circulatory occlusion (PECO) (elicit muscle metaboreflex); (2) supine (stimulate cardiopulmonary baroreflexes);and (3) seated, breathing 32% oxygen (suppress peripheral chemoreceptor reflex). While seated, MSNA decreased similarly during mild and moderate exercise (p < 0.001) with no increase during PECO (p = 0.44). Supine posture lowered resting MSNA (main effect p = 0.01) BP and HR. MSNA fell further (p = 0.04) along with diastolic BP and HR during mild, not moderate, supine cycling. Hyperoxia attenuated resting (main effect p = 0.01), but not exercise MSNA. In healthy middle‐age, the cardiopulmonary baroreflex and arterial chemoreflex modulate resting MSNA, but contrary to previous observations in young subjects, without counter‐regulatory offset by the sympatho‐excitatory metaboreflex, resulting in an augmented sympatho‐inhibitory response to mild dynamic leg exercise.
Understanding micro-blogging users’ translanguaging in Chinese language play: a qualitative phenomenological approach
Authors: Lin Zhong , Wang Feifei , Mao Yifei , Wang Feng 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
Whilst existing studies have investigated ludic translanguaging practices in diverse contexts, little knowledge is available on dad jokes, a common language play phenomenon in Chinese online contexts. To fill this gap, focusing on dad jokes on the Weibo platform, this paper investigates how and why translanguaging practices operate in the Chinese language play by micro-blogging users. Drawing upon a theoretical framework of translanguaging and a qualitative phenomenological approach, four types of boundary-transcending language play: interlingual, image-based, trans-semiotic, and intercultural translanguaging play are identified in the current study. Results from semi-structured online interviews with voluntary participants revealed that such creative translanguaging further facilitated the ludic effects of dad jokes and ultimately constructed a humorous translanguaging space for viewers as a source of enjoyment. The findings enrich research literature on ludic translanguaging by demonstrating that the Weibo platform with multimodal semiotic resources provides new sociolinguistic affordances for inclusive, digital literacy practices in language play.
Validation of two measures for assessing English vocabulary knowledge on web-based testing platforms: brief assessments
Authors: Drown Lee , Giovannone Nikole , Pisoni David B. , Theodore Rachel M. 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
Two measures for assessing English vocabulary knowledge, the Vocabulary Size Test (VST) and the Word Familiarity Test (WordFAM), were recently validated for web-based administration. An analysis of the psychometric properties of these assessments revealed high internal consistency, suggesting that stable assessment could be achieved with fewer test items. Because researchers may use these assessments in conjunction with other experimental tasks, the utility may be enhanced if they are shorter in duration. To this end, two “brief” versions of the VST and the WordFAM were developed and submitted to validation testing. Each version consisted of approximately half of the items from the full assessment, with novel items across each brief version. Participants (n = 85) completed one brief version of both the VST and the WordFAM at session one, followed by the other brief version of each assessment at session two. The results showed high test-retest reliability for both the VST (r = 0.68) and the WordFAM (r = 0.82). The assessments also showed moderate convergent validity (ranging from r = 0.38 to 0.59), indicative of assessment validity. This work provides open-source English vocabulary knowledge assessments with normative data that researchers can use to foster high quality data collection in web-based environments.

“Normal Is What We Make It, Right?” Ordinary Aesthetics and Uncanny Twists in Contemporary TV Series
Authors: Gerrits Jeroen 
Published: September 2023

AbstractContemporary TV shows, characterized by their complex narrative form, are designed to reveal the simple. They enable characters and viewers alike to discover the ordinary by coupling the everyday to an underworld populated by criminals, demons, vampires, and other kinds of “lowlifes.” I will argue here that the structure of the Möbius strip, or Escher twist, draws a particular aesthetic appeal at the intersection of these worlds. I call these twists uncanny in the Cavellian sense that the underworld, looking strangely familiar, has the capacity of making the ordinary look unfamiliar, inherently strange, and unstable. Rather than allowing us to judge the demonic or illegal, they disclose what is normally inaccessible to us precisely because it is so ordinary and simple, so familiar and in plain sight. I will support this idea of Escher-twisting from one world to another by analyzing examples fromTwin Peaks(ABC 1990-2, Showtime 2017),The Sopranos(HBO 1999-2007),Awake(NBC 2012), andOzark(Netflix 2017–2022).
Influence of betalain natural dye from red beet in gum acacia biopolymer: optical and electrical perspective
Authors: Mullick Himadri 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
In this study, the development and characterization of a plant-derived biopolymer, gum acacia, chemically modified by an herbal dye, red beetroot (Latin Beta vulgaris) has been presented. Red beetroot, a flowering plant with abundant phytochemicals, prevents diseases and produces colorful chromophores. Chromophores interact with incident intense electromagnetic field and thereby absorb radiation in ultraviolet and/or visible region of the spectrum, promoting low to high-level electron excitation between different energy states. Such transition influences variation in optical and electrical properties of the system. Optical properties of both biopolymer unmodified gum acacia specimen and after modification with red beet induced chromophore are investigated by UV–visible absorption spectroscopy. Pronounced light absorption is observed in the visible range of the spectrum compared to the unmodified specimen in which absorption is found to be observed in the deep ultraviolet range. Electrical characterization of the modified biopolymer with red beetroot extract suggests eviation from ideal dielectric relaxation obeying Debye mechanism. Electrical conductivity is found to be enhanced over pure specimen. These properties are eligible for application in energy storage devices, especially as a sensitizer in photovoltaic material which are ongoing extensive research area.
Dietary flavonoid myricetin 3-O-galactoside suppresses α-melanocyte stimulating hormone-induced melanogenesis in B16F10 melanoma cells by regulating PKA and ERK1/2 activation
Authors: Oh Jung Hwan , Karadeniz Fatih , Seo Youngwan , Kong Chang-Suk 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
Melanogenesis is the process where skin pigment melanin is produced through tyrosinase activity. Overproduction of melanin causes skin disorders such as freckles, spots, and hyperpigmentation. Myricetin 3-O-galactoside (M3G) is a dietary flavonoid with reported bioactivities. M3G was isolated from Limonium tetragonum and its anti-melanogenic properties were investigated in α-melanocyte stimulating hormone-stimulated B16F10 melanoma cells. The in vitro anti-melanogenic capacity of M3G was confirmed by inhibited tyrosinase and melanin production. M3G-mediated suppression of melanogenic proteins, tyrosinase, microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF), and tyrosinase-related proteins (TRP)-1 and TRP-2, were confirmed by mRNA and protein levels, analyzed by RT-qPCR and Western blot, respectively. Furthermore, M3G suppressed Wnt signaling through the inhibition of PKA phosphorylation. M3G also suppressed the consequent phosphorylation of CREB and nuclear levels of MITF. Analysis of MAPK activation further revealed that M3G increased the activation of ERK1/2 while p38 and JNK activation remained unaffected. Results showed that M3G suppressed melanogenesis in B16F10 cells by decreasing tyrosinase production and therefore inhibiting melanin formation. A possible action mechanism was the suppression of CREB activation and upregulation of ERK phosphorylation which might cause the decreased nuclear levels of MITF. In conclusion, M3G was suggested to be a potential nutraceutical with anti-melanogenic properties.
