Authors: Graham Tatyana , Nyambi Agatha , Barkhad Aisha , Stevens-Uninsky Maya , Rehman Nadia , Bhatnagar Neera , Mbuagbaw Lawrence 
Published: August 2023

Background
Race-based health information is necessary to address disproportionate barriers racial communities face and to achieve optimal health outcomes. In Canada, Black people are disproportionately affected by HIV. There is an emerging body of literature on this topic, but a concise summary is lacking. There is a need to collectively and critically analyze research on HIV in the Black population in Canada to identify knowledge gaps and address this disproportionate burden.

Objective
The aim of this scoping review is to summarize the evidence on HIV and Black people in Canada. The main outcomes of interest are HIV prevalence, access to care, HIV prevention and treatment, the HIV care cascade, and related HIV outcomes. Through this scoping review, we aim to provide a comprehensive overview of the existing literature and highlight topics that need more investigation in future research.

Methods
We will conduct a scoping review of electronic databases using a systematic search strategy for qualitative, quantitative, or mixed methods studies reporting on HIV and Black people in Canada. We will conduct our searches in MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL, Web of Science, EBSCO, and Google Scholar for literature published between 1985 and 2023. Gray literature, including government reports, dissertations, and other reports, will be included. Search results will be screened, and the full text of relevant literature will be retrieved. The extraction of data will be conducted independently by 2 reviewers. Consensus meetings will be held to resolve conflicts. Our results will be reported according to the PRISMA-ScR (Preferred Reporting Items for the Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Extension for Scoping Reviews).

Results
The initial title and abstract review identified 447 articles. These articles will be critically appraised, and relevant information will be extracted. Information from these articles will be compared using charts and tables. Screening will start in November 2023, and we anticipate publishing the scoping review in June 2024.

Conclusions
The findings from this scoping review will help inform policy, practice, and research on HIV and Black people in Canada.

A Digital Box and Block Test for Hand Dexterity Measurement: Instrument Validation Study
Authors: Prochaska Eveline , Ammenwerth Elske 
Published: August 2023

Background
The Box and Block Test (BBT) measures unilateral gross manual dexterity and is widely used in clinical settings with a wide range of populations, including older people and clients with neurological disorders.

Objective
In this study, we present a newly developed digitized version of the BBT, called the digital BBT (dBBT). The physical design is similar to the original BBT, but the dBBT contains digital electronics that automate the test procedure, timing, and score measurement. The aim of this study is to investigate the validity and reliability of the dBBT.

Methods
We performed measurements at 2 time points for 29 healthy participants. BBT and dBBT were used at the first measurement time point, and dBBT was used again at the second measurement time point. Concurrent validity was assessed using the correlation between BBT and dBBT, the paired t test, and the Bland-Altman analysis. Test-retest reliability and interrater reliability were examined using the interclass correlation coefficient (ICC) by repeated measures with the dBBT within an interval of 10 days.

Results
Our results showed moderate concurrent validity (r=0.48, P=.008), moderate test-retest reliability (ICC 0.72, P<.001), a standard error of measurement of 3.1 blocks, and the smallest detectable change at a 95% CI of 8.5 blocks. Interrater reliability was moderate with an ICC of 0.67 (P=.02). The Bland-Altman analysis showed sufficient accuracy of the dBBT in comparison with the conventional BBT.

Conclusions
The dBBT can contribute to objectifying the measurement of gross hand dexterity without losing its important characteristics and is simple to implement.
Dome trochleoplasty for correction of patella alta and patella luxation in dogs > 20 kg
Authors: Ericksen Timothy D. , Stobie Daniel , Culbert Laura , Valenzano Dominick , Bogart Daniel F. 
Published: August 2023

Abstract

OBJECTIVE
To describe the dome trochleoplasty procedure and report the short-term outcomes and complications associated with a novel technique to correct patellar luxation and patella alta.

ANIMALS
13 dogs (16 stifle joints) diagnosed with medial patellar luxation with concurrent patella alta in dogs > 20 kg.

CLINICAL PRESENTATION
Medical records of dogs weighing > 20 kg that underwent a dome trochleoplasty for correction of a medial luxating patella were prospectively evaluated. The procedure described involves an osteotomy of the femoral trochlea, which is then translated and/or rotated to correct patellar luxation. Clinical results were assessed using subjective lameness scoring, radiographic evaluation, and the Canine Brief Pain Inventory (CBPI) tool.

RESULTS
16 stifle joints were included in this study. The overall complication rate was 50%. Major complications occurred in 43.8% of stifle joints due to pin migration and recurrent luxation of the patella. One dog experienced a catastrophic complication 4 months postoperatively. Uncomplicated osteotomy healing was present in 94% of dogs. The median initial lameness score was 2 (mean, 1.81; range, 0 to 4) and at the final recheck was 0 (mean, 0.31; range, 0 to 2). The CBPI scores were available for 50% of stifle joints. The median initial CBPI score was 45.5 (mean, 48.8; range, 32 to 74) and at the final recheck was 17.5 (mean, 20.5; range, 0 to 43).

CLINICAL RELEVANCE
The dome trochleoplasty procedure offers an alternative technique for surgical correction of patellar luxation secondary to patella alta in large-breed dogs, but due to its higher complication and reluxation rates, it should be used cautiously and probably in combination with other corrective procedures, such as tibial tuberosity transposition, soft tissue imbrication, and/or soft tissue release rather than as a stand-alone procedure.

Authors: Naumov Oleg N. 
Published: August 2023

The biography of Colonel Grigory Alexandrovich Pushkin (1868—1940), grandson of Alexander Pushkin, is reconstructed on the basis of unknown materials of the Manuscripts Department and the Archive of the Russian State Library (RSL). The article told about his service in the Imperial and Red Armies, his family and difficult financial situation after 1917. It is shown what bureaucratic difficulties accompanied the assignment of his personal pension in 1923 and subsequent assistance. Particular attention is paid to the solution of the housing problem and obtaining accommodation in Moscow.The Letters of G.A. Pushkin to G.P. Georgievsky (1919), V.D. Bonch-Bruevich (1933) and P.S. Popov (1933), are published in full for the first time, as well as letters from Yu.N. Pushkina to V.S. Nechaeva (1936) and from V.D. Bonch-Bruevich to G.A. Pushkin (1933), which are kept in the Manuscript Department of Russian State Library.Article restores the history of G.A. Pushkinʼs working at the State Library of the USSR named after V.I. Lenin based on the Personnel Files. From 1936 till 1938 he signed temporary employment contracts, while he worked on a permanent position only from January 1939 to January 1940.G.A. Pushkin’s biography is analyzed in the context of the social history of the Russian nobility after 1917 and its adaptation to the Soviet reality. The author concludes that the official persecution of the former elite promoted the appearance of the staff with wide knowledge, proficiency in foreign languages and organizational experience in the State Library of the USSR named after V.I. Lenin. They influenced the development of the library as a research center.

Implementation of Enhanced Spray Routing Protocol for VDTN On Surabaya Smart City Scenario
Authors: Agussalim  , Agung Brastama Putra  
Published: August 2023

The application of smart-city, which promises better city management in helping to improve people's quality of life, is still inhibited due to the high cost of infrastructure investment. In several Smart Cities, it takes at least $ 30 - 40 billion to convert a conventional town into a smart city, including for data collection infrastructure. Alternatively, low-power wide-area networks (LPWANs) could be considered, but they need more bandwidth to serve data transmission in a smart city. Vehicle Delay Tolerant Network (VDTN) is one part of DTN that employs vehicles as a communication infrastructure that allows communication in challenging conditions and could make it an alternative network for Data Collection in a Smart City. This paper proposes a Surabaya Smart City scenario with VDTN as data collection. The scenario consists of 40 wireless sensors and 50 to 200 vehicles (car and bus) with five Road Side Units that forward data from the sensor to the monitoring server. Furthermore, to increase the VDTN performance, we improve our proposed routing protocol, Spray and Hop Distance (SNHD), with two sprays method (Adaptive and Simple) and data collection support from multiple sources and destinations. The evaluation was carried out using a simulation-based comparison with an increase in the number of vehicles to determine the impact of vehicle density on data collection performance in terms of delivery probability, latency average, and overhead ratio. Based on the simulation results, the simple spray method in SNHD and A-SNHD outperformed the well-known VDTN routing protocol, i.e., Epidemic and Spray and Wait. Furthermore, when the number of cars increases from 50 to 200, the performance of VDTN does not increase significantly as the density of the network increases. It means that VDTN only requires a small number of vehicles to be used as a low-cost alternative network for smart cities.

Reforma minha Igreja
Authors: Sell Carlos Eduardo 
Published: August 2023

O artigo busca traçar um perfil do papado de Francisco. Após uma breve caracterização histórica dos dez anos de Francisco à frente da Igreja, será realizada uma análise documental de três áreas-chave de seu pontificado: eclesiológica, moral e sociopolítica. Em cada uma delas visa-se determinar quais são as reformas almejadas pelo Papa e como elas revelam as tensões e disputas que existem entre diferentes tendências na Igreja a respeito de seus rumos no mundo moderno. Com base na teoria dos sistemas de Niklas Luhmann demonstra-se que, ao contrário dos dois últimos papados, cuja hermenêutica do Vaticano II visava a re-estabilização da Igreja, sua crise atual tornou imperativo selecionar alternativas capazes de produzir variações no sistema eclesial. O pano de fundo sociocultural, eclesial e intelectual que Francisco trouxe da teologia latino-americana do povo é fundamental para explicar sua hermenêutica conciliar e, por conseguinte, as linhas de força e o perfil reformista de seu pontificado.
Abstract: The article seeks to outline a profile of Francis’ papacy. After a brief historical characterization of Francisco’s ten years at the head of the Church, a documentary analysis of three key areas of his pontificate will be carried out: ecclesiological, moral and sociopolitical. In each of them, the aim is to determine which are the reforms sought by the Pope and how they reveal the tensions and disputes that exist between different trends in the Church regarding its course in the modern world. Based on Niklas Luhmann’s theory of systems, it is demonstrated that unlike the last two papacies, whose hermeneutics of Vatican II aimed at re-stabilizing the Church, its current crisis made it imperative to select alternatives capable of producing variations in the ecclesial system. The sociocultural, ecclesial and intellectual background that Francis brought from the Latin American theology of the people is fundamental to explain his conciliar hermeneutics and, consequently, the lines of force and the reformist profile of his pontificate.

The phenotype of a living thing is determined by the DNA sequence inherited from the male and female parents. The phenotype of a cross on sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) cannot be predicted using Mendel's Law rules because the dominance/recessive trait in the parents is not known, as a result of self sterility. This study aims to describe the morphological structure of tubers and leaves resulting from natural crosses of Asesi Antin 1 and Beta 2 sweet potatoes. The study was conducted in an observational non-experimental manner on plants resulting from natural crosses of sweet potato Antin 1 with Beta 2 assesion. All seeds resulting from the crosses were germinated in soil : sand media with a ratio of 3: 1. Furthermore, the growing sprouts were planted in plastic pots with a diameter of 30 cm with a medium consisting of soil: sand: compost = 3: 2: 1,then harvested after 7 months of age. The tuber morphological structures observed were shape tuber character, skin color predominant, and tuber flesh predominant color characters, while the leaf morphological structures observed were circumscriptio, margo folii, number of lobus, and the leaf vein color. The number of seedlings that managed to grow to maturity was 10 plants and had a variety of tuber and leaf morphological structures
One plant did tubers, and the other 9 plants produced of tubers.The morphological characteristics of the tubers and leaves of all individuals were as follows: 1) tuber shape characters, rounded, oblong and obovate for 1 plant each, long irregular, long oblong and ovate for 2 plants each; 2) the dominant color of tuber skin, 1 plant was purple, 5 plants were cream, and 3 plants were red; 3) the dominant color characters of tuber flesh were purple and white-purple each 3 plants, 2 plants were yellow-white and 1 plant was yellow; 4) the character of circumscriptio of triangular leaves is 3 plants and the cordatus leaves is 7 plants; 5) the character of the margo folii, 3 plants are palmati fidus, 5 plants are palmati partitus and 1 plant is palmati lobus; 6) the character of the number of lobes, 3 lobes is 3 plants, 5 lobes is 5 plants, 4 and 7 lobes is 1 plant each; and 7) the character of the vein of leave, green veins is 8 plants, purple and purple at the base only is 1 plant each.

Published: August 2023

Scrum is a part of agile software development which also called incremental software development model. Scrum methodology commonly used to overcome uncertain condition and tight deadline. Scrum consists of three roles, they are product owner, development team, and scrum master. Scrum can be implemented on many areas such as development of education mobile application, integration of document management system, strengthen IT development centers, and many others. The successful of Scrum implementation depends on the skill and knowledge of the team members. The Scrum also has several risk factors and therefore needs risk management approaches. A comparison between agile and waterfall model is also discussed. The Scrum performance can also be tested with certain ways.Â Scrum used to make sure that all parts of the software can be delivered on time. The other benefits, scrum can make creative and productive workplace, and scrum can also increase business value.
Main problems and proposed solutions for improving Template Matching
Authors: Aznag Khalid , Oirrak Ahmed El , Bachari Essaid El 
Published: August 2023

In this work we discuss the problems of template matching and we propose some solutions.Â Those problems are: 1) Template and image of search differ by a scale, 2) Template or image of search is object of rotation, 3) Template or image of search is object of an affinity. The well known method is NCC (Normalized Cross Correlation); this method can not handle scale, rotation, affinity or occlusion. Also the NCC is not preferred for binary image. So we propose here to use index similarity for example Jaccard index.
