Context:
The Fagerstrom test for nicotine dependence (FTND) is a self-administered ordinal measure of nicotine dependence containing six items that evaluate the quantity of tobacco smoking, the compulsion to use, and dependence.

Aims:
To date, no Bengali version of the questionnaire is available. We aimed to develop its Bengali version and examine its cross-cultural adaptability considering linguistic equivalence.

Settings and Design:
A cross-sectional study was conducted through consecutive sampling at the outpatients of the National Institute of Homoeopathy, Kolkata.

Subjects and Methods:
The FTND-Bengali version (FTND-B) was produced by standardized forward-backward translations. The psychometric analysis was run to examine its factor structure, validity, and reliability. Reliability was examined using internal consistency (n = 263). Construct validity was examined by exploratory factor analysis (n = 132) using principal component analysis (varimax rotation). Subsequently, confirmatory factor analysis (CFA; n = 131) was performed to verify the model fit.

Results:
The internal consistency was acceptable (Cronbach's α = 0.701; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.641–0.753). The Kaiser–Meyer-Olkin (=0.712) and Bartlett's test of sphericity (Chi-square 109.593, P < 0.001) both suggested adequacy of the sample. In factor analysis using varimax, all the items loaded above the pre-specified value of 0.3 and identified two components – “restraint” (question no. 1, 2, and 6) and “compulsion” (question no. 3, 4, and 5); explaining 56.1% of the variation. The goodness-of-fit in the CFA model was mediocre, but acceptable (Comparative Fit Index = 0.871, Tucker Lewis Index = 0.759, Root Mean Square Error of Approximation = 0.142, Standardized Root Mean Square Residual = 0.026).

Conclusions:
FTND-B, consisting of 6 items and framed within two components, appeared to be a valid and reliable questionnaire.
Assessment of mandibular asymmetry in different skeletal malocclusions and vertical patterns in adult individuals: A cone-beam computed tomography study
Authors: Alhazmi Nora 
Published: May 2023

OBJECTIVES:
The study aims to measure the mandibular condylar height (CH), ramus height (RH), total height (CH+RH), asymmetry index, and condylar volume (Cvol) in individuals with different anteroposterior and vertical skeletal discrepancies.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:
The study sample consisted of 131 subjects (60 females and 71 males) with a mean age of 35.06 ± 12.79 years. Pre-existing CBCT images were divided into groups according to the anteroposterior and vertical skeletal discrepancies. The investigator analyzed the data using t-tests to assess the mandibular bilateral sides of the individuals and gender differences. The mean difference between groups was determined using a one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). The Chi-square test was used to study the association between the asymmetry index and groups.

RESULTS:
Each individual's bilateral sides exhibited statistically significant differences in CH, RH, and Cvol (P = 0.033, P = 0.039, P = 0.005, respectively), but not in CH+RH (P = 0.458). There were, however, statistically significant gender differences in CH+RH (P < 0.001). Skeletal Class III and hypodivergent groups revealed the highest linear and volumetric values compared to other groups. The asymmetry index was increased in CH (P = 0.006) and Cvol (P = 0.002) in skeletal Class II subjects.

CONCLUSIONS:
Significant differences in CH, RH, and Cvol were found on the right and left sides of the same individual. This study found increased linear and volumetric values in males, skeletal Class III, and hypodivergent subjects. Class II individuals had an increased CH and Cvol asymmetry index. This study highlights in-depth knowledge of mandibular asymmetry, which is extremely important to achieve an accurate diagnosis and provide the best treatment outcome.
On Gaussian decay rates of harmonic oscillators and equivalences of related Fourier uncertainty principles
Authors: Kulikov Aleksei , Oliveira Lucas , Ramos João P. G. 
Published: May 2023

We make progress on a question posed by Vemuri on the optimal Gaussian decay of harmonic oscillators, proving the original conjecture up to an arithmetic progression of times. The techniques used are a suitable translation of the problem at hand in terms of the free Schrödinger equation, the machinery developed in the work of Cowling, Escauriaza, Kenig, Ponce and Vega (2010), and a lemma which relates decay on average to pointwise decay.
Such a lemma produces many more consequences in terms of equivalences of uncertainty principles. Complementing such results, we provide endpoint results in particular classes induced by certain Laplace transforms, both to the decay lemma and to the remaining cases of Vemuri’s conjecture, shedding light on the full endpoint question.

Integrated Immune Cell-Cell Communication Networks Underpinning Rheumatoid Arthritis Pathogenesis
Authors: Bapoo Amaan , Ratiu Jeremy 
Published: May 2023

Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a chronic, systemic auto-inflammatory disease that targets peripheral joints causing bone erosion, worsened mobility, and lower quality of life. RA is a complex autoimmune disease that develops through the combined actions of many cell types. In particular, monocytes, fibroblasts, and T cells play critical roles within the arthritic joint driving disease pathogenesis. These cells communicate with each other via ligand-receptor interactions orchestrating inflammatory responses ultimately leading to joint destruction. However, it remains unclear how the combined efforts of these different cells form an integrated network of immune responses which ultimately lead to disease development. Therefore, we hypothesized that an integrated communication network between the different immune cells found within RA joints functions to promote inflammation and drive RA disease pathogenesis. I utilized predictive assessment of cell-cell communication networks through single-cell RNA-sequencing to determine how immune cell interactions differ between autoimmune and non-autoimmune joint destruction. These studies identified a novel cell-cell communication network in which monocytes, fibroblasts and T cells cooperate to promote cell-cell interactions, immune activation, and induction of pro-inflammatory gene networks. Together, these results identify numerous potential therapeutic targets for the intervention of RA disease.
Recent Developments of Soft Robotics in Medical Applications
Authors: Singh Tegh 
Published: May 2023

Soft robotics is an emerging technology able to provide novel solutions that standard robots are not capable of addressing. When thinking of robots, typically rigid, mechanical machines come to mind. SCARA robots, sanitation robots, automated cars, and other rigid robotic systems offer unparalleled precision and consistency and are widely used throughout various industries. However, in certain situations, specifically biological or medical applications, rigid robots are unable to provide the adaptability and flexibility required to produce a beneficial outcome.
Soft robotics refers to the subfield of robotics related to developing and fabricating robots using compliant, tractable materials. Soft robots lack rigid joints or a constrained, fully mechanical body. In combination with their compliant materials, soft robots have infinite degrees of freedom and can easily conform to any shape or surface. Benefits of soft robotics include increased flexibility and range of motion, superior biomimicry, and gentler, safer interactions with humans. This review paper investigates the applications of soft robotics in the biomedical field, including prostheses, assistive and drug delivery devices, soft surgical tools, and body-part simulators. The paper compares attributes of rigid and soft robots to examine specific advantages for each of these categories. It highlights the limitations of biomedical soft robotics covering functionality, durability, reliability. Finally, the paper discusses prospects and promising technologies intersecting soft robotics and the biomedical field.
Analyzing the Correlation Between Student's Knowledge of Newton's Laws of Physics and Their Enjoyment of Watching Marvel Films
Authors: Hur Tory , Kukla Kevin 
Published: May 2023

The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) has produced numerous worldwide box office hits such as Avengers: End Game, Avengers: Infinity Wars, and the Spiderman series. However, previous researchers discovered countless numbers of the feasibility of the physics within these films. The ongoing discussion among the scientific community led to the aim of my research: to examine if there exists a positive or negative correlation between a viewer’s knowledge of science, particularly Newton’s Laws, and their enjoyment of Marvel films, specifically superhero movies.
To determine the relationship between students’ scientific literacy and their enjoyment of watching Marvel films, I conducted two types of quantitative research: a pre-validated Half Force Concept Inventory test and a Two-Sample Independent t-Test conducted on 91 students in four AP Physics 1 classes in X High School.
My study concluded that the correlation between the viewer’s knowledge of science, particularly Newton’s Laws, had no significant relationship with their enjoyment of watching Marvel films.

Purpose: This report aims to review the orthopaedic doctor's experiences and to provide insight for the formulation of response measures for similar incidents in the future.We further report on our orthopaedic surgery disaster management and lessons learnt
Methodology: A retrospective review of orthopaedic patients who were admitted at Chris Hani Baragwanath academic hospital (CHBAH) from the 01 April to 30 April 2021, the month of the fire incident. Data were obtained from the hospital casualty, inpatient registers, and outpatient registers. Data were compared before and after the fire incident.
Findings: Transfer was provided to 51 patients to CHBAH orthopaedic emergency unit. Forty-three (84.3%) were adult patients and eight (15.7%) were paediatric patients. There were fewer daily admissions to orthopaedic emergency unit in the last 15 days of the month of the disaster compared to the first 15 days, when the 51 cases from Charlotte Maxeke Johannesburg Academic Hospital (CMJAH) were excluded (mean: 12.89 versus 13.26). The orthopaedic outpatient department doctor to patient ratio improved after the fire incident.
Recommendation: The four phases’ disaster approach- preparedness, response, recovery and mitigation remain applicable to disaster management. Planning for emergencies the dedication of orthopaedic professionals and hospital employees can all contribute to the highest quality patient care.
