Authors: Shukla Babita , Kushwaha Poonam 
Published: August 2023

Background:
P. zeylanica L. is a well-known herbal plant that has long been used for its therapeutic properties. The present study aimed to carry out phytochemical screening to determine the total phenolic and flavonoid content as well as to evaluate the antioxidant properties of the methanolic extract of the root of Plumbago zeylanica L.

Methods:
The antioxidant activity of the extract was assessed using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), nitric oxide scavenging, and hydroxyl radical scavenging assays.

Results:
The phenolic and flavonoid contents of the extracts were 2.4% and 16.5%, respectively. P. zeylanica was found to scavenge free radicals with substantial antioxidant properties, exhibiting a high flavonoid and phenolic content. These results also suggest a strong correlation between antioxidant activities, as well as phenolic and flavonoid contents.

Conclusion:
The plant sample exhibited superior free radical scavenging activity and phytochemical constituents that might be useful for further research on fighting oxidative stress.

Authors: Wang Lu , Ye Chen , Zhao Fanghong , Wu Hongjing , Wang Ruoyu , Zhang Zhaofeng , Li Jie 
Published: August 2023

Background
Chronic inflammation plays a crucial role in tissue injury, osteoporosis, and fracture. The dietary inflammatory index (DII) is a tool for assessing the potential for inflammation in the diet. However, the association between the DII and fractures remains controversial from previous studies.

Objective
We aimed to explore the correlation between the DII and fracture risk in Chinese adults.

Methods
We included 11,999 adults (5519 men and 6480 women) who were a part of the China Health and Nutrition Survey (1997-2015) prospective cohort. A 3-day, 24-hour meal review method was used to calculate the DII score. The fractures were identified using a questionnaire. Cox proportional hazards models were used to estimate the hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% CIs for fractures. Subgroup, sensitivity, and restricted cubic spline analyses were performed.

Results
During the 18 years of follow-up (median follow-up 9.0 years), 463 men and 439 women developed fractures. The median DII score was 0.64 (IQR −1.74 to 1.46) for the total sample, 0.75 (IQR −1.68 to 1.50) for men, and 0.53 (IQR −1.79 to 1.42) for women. The DII score had a positive correlation with the risk of fracture among women but not among men. For men, after adjusting for covariates, the HRs for quintiles of DII were 1, 0.96 (95% CI 0.66-1.41), 1.05 (95% CI 0.74-1.49), 0.89 (95% CI 0.62-1.26), and 0.94 (95% CI 0.67-1.34; trend: P=.62). The HRs for women were 1, 1.13 (95% CI 0.72-1.79), 1.24 (95% CI 0.83-1.86), 1.51 (95% CI 1.02-2.22), and 1.62 (95% CI 1.10-2.39; trend: P=.004). The restricted cubic spline analysis showed a significant association between fracture risk and DII score in women (overall association: P=.01); as the DII scores were >0.53, HRs showed a significant upward trend. Women aged <50 years or who are nonsmokers, who are nondrinkers, or with nonabdominal obesity had a positive association between fracture risk and the DII score. In sensitivity analyses, after excluding people with diabetes or hypertension, there was still a positive association between fracture risk and the DII score in women. Among the DII components, the DII scores of protein (trend: P=.03), niacin (trend: P=.002), and iron (trend: P=.02) showed significant associations with the risk of fracture in women.

Conclusions
Proinflammatory diet consumption increased the fracture risk in Chinese women aged <50 years. The high consumption of anti-inflammatory foods and low consumption of proinflammatory foods may be an important strategy to prevent fractures in women.

Published: August 2023

Background
In Finland, at least 1 in 4 residents will be >75 years of age in 2030. The national aging policy has emphasized the need to improve supportive services to enable older people to live in their own homes for as long as possible.

Objective
This study aimed to develop a preventive health screening procedure for home-dwelling older adults aged 75 years to enable the use of clinical patient data for purposes of strategic planning of supportive services in primary care.

Methods
The action research method was applied to develop the health screening procedure with selected validated health measures in cooperation with the local practicing interprofessional health care teams from 10 primary care centers in the Social Security Center of Pori, Western Finland (99,485 residents, n=11,938, 12% of them >75 years). The selection of evidence-based validated health measures was based on the national guide to screen factors increasing fall risk and the national functioning measures database. The cut-off points of the selected health measures and laboratory tests were determined in consecutive consensus meetings with the local primary care physicians, with decisions based on internationally validated measures, national current care guidelines, and local policies in clinical practice.

Results
The health screening procedure for 75-year-old residents comprised 30 measures divided into three categories: (1) validated self-assessments (9 measures), (2) nurse-conducted screenings (14 measures), and (3) laboratory tests (7 measures). The procedure development process comprised the following steps: (1) inventory and selection of the validated health measures and laboratory tests, (2) training of practical nurses to perform screenings for the segment of 75-year-old residents and to guide them to possible further medical actions, (3) creation of research data from clinical patient data for secondary use purposes, (4) secondary data analysis, and (5) consensus meeting after the pilot test of the health screening procedure for 75-year-old residents procedure in 2019 based on the experiences of health care professionals and collected research data.

Conclusions
The developed preventive health screening procedure for 75-year-old residents enables the use of clinical patient data for purposes of strategic planning of supportive services in primary care if the potential bias by a low participation rate is controlled.

Discourse on the Civil Rights of the Deaf People in Making a Notary Deed
Authors: Kumala Ida Ayu Ratna , Sudantra I Ketut 
Published: August 2023

It is generally said that disabled persons do not have proper access to justice and are not treated equally before the law. In Indonesia, the human rights approach has been incorporated into developing laws and policies for disabled persons. However, disabled people still face legal difficulties. This article aims to discuss the legal capacity of a deaf person to perform the legal action of making a deed before a notary in Indonesia from the perspectives of human rights, contracts, and notary laws. It reflects legal research that uses a statutory and conceptual approach. Primary legal materials are obtained from the national laws and regulations of Indonesia and relevant international legal instruments, while secondary legal materials are obtained from books, journal articles, and website content. The findings reveal that Indonesian national law generally recognizes the right of persons with disabilities, including deaf people, to perform civil law actions. In general, deaf people can sign a contract; however, there is no guarantee that they understand the communication process in making a deed. In this context, there are still obstacles related to the lack of sign language interpreters in Indonesia, which can complicate the transferring of information when making notarial deeds between deaf clients, notaries, and witnesses.

Arterial enhancement on triphasic computed tomography scan predicts response of colorectal liver metastases to chemoembolization: A case–control study
Authors: Wall Chris , Amiraslany Afsoun , Ahmed Shahid , Moser Michael 
Published: August 2023

Objectives:
The arterial enhancement fraction (AEF), a simple calculation based on a standard triple-phase computed tomography (CT) scan, has been shown to predict treatment response in radioembolization of colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). The current study aims to determine if arterial enhancement also predicts treatment response in transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) of CRLM, which uses a larger particle size and exerts an ischemic effect.

Materials and Methods:
A retrospective analysis of our experience with TACE for CRLM between 2013 and 2022 yielded 97 TACE treatments for CRLM. The study included the first TACE treatment patients having a triple-phase CT scan before and after TACE, yielding 62 tumors treated with TACE of irinotecan drug-eluting beads in 36 patients. Tumors with complete response or partial response based on CT-based modified RECIST criteria were considered to be “responders,” whereas tumors that had progressive disease or stable disease were considered to be “non-responders.”

Results:
The responders differed from the non-responders in terms of arterial phase enhancement (APhE) (9.5 [interquartile range, IQR 6, 17] vs. 2 [IQR 1, 5] Hounsfield units [HUs], P < 0.001) and AEF (0.7 [IQR 0.5, 1] vs. 0.3 [IQR 0.1, 1], P = 0.01), both validated measures of hepatic arterial perfusion. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis yielded a 5.5 HU cutoff for APhE. Those tumors with APhE >5.5 HU had a response rate of 72%, whereas those <5.5 HU had a response rate of 21%. Median overall survival for patients with tumors having APhE >5.5 HU was 22.4 months (IQR 13, 32) versus 14.5 months (IQR 10, 19) for those with APhE ≤5.5 HU, but this did not achieve statistical significance (P = 0.14).

Conclusion:
CRLM with greater hepatic arterial blood supply as measured by the APhE and AEF have a higher probability of TACE treatment response.
USAGE OF LANGUAGE CORPUSES IN STUDYING WORD FORMATION OF MODERN AMERICAN ENGLISH DIALECTS
Authors: Vukolova Kateryna 
Published: August 2023

The article deals with the principles of using the concepts of corpus linguistics in studying American English dialects. The origins of corpus linguistics of American English dialects are considered, and developments in corpus linguistics by W. Francis and G. Kuchera are investigated (Brown Corpus, 1964). The concept of «corpus linguistics» is defined, and some problematic aspects are described. The qualifications for using the corpus-linguistic approach in the study of dialect grammatical features of American English are defined. The grammatical differences between British and American English are outlined. "Spoken English" is defined as how the latter was dialectical in the United States. The American dialects and Standardized American English are distinguished. Attention is focused on comparative and legal developments in corpus linguistics of British and American English (Brown and Lancaster Corps). Discographic studies of spoken American (dialectical) are mentioned: Lancaster/IBM SEC and Corpus of Spoken American English. The peculiarities of using the International Corpus of English, which studies British and American English in philological and methodological unity, are outlined. The processes of expanding the language corpus of the American English language from 1990 till the present (through the prism of statistics from The Bank of English) are determined. The main methodological developments in the systematization of the corpus of American English from the point of view of the theory of Corpus Linguistics are indicated: software corpus; problem-parametric industry selections; text transcription; search and system work; description encoding of "preserved" dialect words and word formations.
NATURALISTIC FEATURES IN THE WORKS OF KOSTYANTYN SROKOVSKY (ON THE MATERIAL OF THE NOVEL "TWO BRICKS")
Authors: Kolesnyk Alla 
Published: August 2023

In the article, a literary analysis of the content and form of the novella "Two Bricks" by the Ukrainian writer Kostyantyn Srokovsky was carried out. The main literary techniques and tools used by naturalists in their works and their influence on the clear presentation and accuracy of information transmission about contemporary events are considered. The duration of the existence of the naturalism style in Ukrainian and European literature is determined. In the story "Two Bricks" is analyzed the writer’s image of the picture of a terrible and impressive incident from the life of ordinary Ukrainian peasants – the murder of a man's brother-in-law for two bricks that he stole from him. It was determined the writer's use of naturalistic means of image, which gave the author the opportunity to reproduce the depicted picture in accordance with real life. They are: 1) depicting the life of the characters under the influence of the physiological state of a person, as well as under the influence of environment; 2) documentary reproduction of the event, transmission of information as in a document (protocol); 3) the objectivity, or depicting reality while avoiding the author's presence; 4) photographic accuracy of the depicted events, the writer's attention to the smallest details of what happened; 5) truthful reproduction of events according to life and the emergence of factography on this basis, but at the same time recording these events without their explanation and penetrating into the essence of the happened events (the writer does not explain the reasons for the murder of the hero’s brother-in-law, but only states this event). As a result of the analysis, it is proposed to consider the Ukrainian writer Kostyantyn Srokovsky as an artist who followed the requirements of the naturalism style initiated by E. Zola in the second half of the 19th century.

Volatility Response to “Black Swan Event” of Covid-19 in Asian Stock Market: An Empirical study Using EGARCH Model
Authors: Dr. Neeru Gupta  
Published: August 2023

By detailing the volatility response to shocks in several Asian nations, a dimension that has not been examined in the existing literature, our study contributes to the body of literature. The empirical data from the study indicate that volatility displayed asymmetric behavior in a few select Asian stock markets over the study period. In relation to this study, we saw that the volatility reaction followed a consistent pattern in the Asian region. For all but a few select markets, shocks are homogeneous in size and sign. Additionally, there is evidence that volatility responses are persistent across all Asian stock markets, which suggests that the impact of volatility will gradually diminish. This study offers helpful information to the investor community to help them make informed decisions about their investments.

Published: August 2023

Background: Relapse is an important but difficult phase of the management of alcohol dependence syndrome (ADS).
Objective: To study the prevalence and characteristics of relapse in patients with ADS.
Methods:This is a descriptive cross-sectional study on the patients with ADS presenting at the Department of Psychiatry, Patan Academy of Health Sciences, for the period of one year (June 2016 - May 2017). Data on the demographic and relapse characteristics were collected. Data were entered and analyzed in Microsoft Excel (MS Office 365, Microsoft Corporation, Washington, United States). Numerical variables were summarized with the median (Inter-Quartile Range [IQR]) and the categorical variables with proportions.
Results: Altogether, 105 patients with ADS were studied, among which 59 patients had a relapse (56.1%). All of them were male with a median age of 42 years (Interquartile range (IQR) 35 to 52). The majority were married (55, 93.22%), manual labor as an occupation (32, 54.24%), were Janjati by ethnicity (37, 62.71%), and had received secondary education (19, 32.20%). The median age of starting alcohol consumption was 18 years (IQR 15 to 20) and the median duration of consumption was 22 years (IQR 15 to 30). The most common reason for relapse was peer pressure (25, 42.37%). The majority had relapsed once before (26, 44.07%). Mostly relapsed after abstinence of 1 to 3 months (22, 37.29%) and abstinence maintained by self-motivation (30, 50.85%). Comorbidity and family history of substance use was present in higher proportions.
Conclusion: A high rate of relapse was found in our patients with peer pressure as the most common reason for the relapse.
