Intraword Variability in Children With Auditory Brainstem Implants: A Longitudinal Comparison With Children With Cochlear Implants
Authors: Faes Jolien , Gillis Steven 
Published: June 2022

Purpose:
Intraword variability designates the phenomenon that a particular target word is produced variably by a child at one point in the child's development. In this study, the amount of intraword variability is studied longitudinally in children with auditory brainstem implants (ABIs). Auditory brainstem implantation is a relative recent technique in pediatric hearing restoration. Therefore, little is known about the phonological development of these children's speech.

Method:
The intraword variability is investigated in three children with ABI, in comparison to children with cochlear implants, matched on lexical development. Intraword variability is measured using relative entropy in order to take into account the frequency distribution in children's productions.

Result:
Results showed considerable variation between the three children with ABI. Still, all children had higher levels of intraword variability in their spontaneous speech productions as compared to children with cochlear implants.

Conclusion:
It seems that children with ABI are lagging behind their phonological development in reference to children with cochlear implants.
Cross-Disciplinary Practices and Perspectives of Auditory Rehabilitation for Adults With Cochlear Implants
Authors: Ray Christin , Glade Rachel , Culbertson Deborah S. 
Published: June 2022

Purpose:
The objective of this study was to examine cross-disciplinary clinical practice approaches and professional characterizations of auditory rehabilitation (AR) for adults with cochlear implants (CIs).

Method:
A survey was distributed nationally to audiologists, speech-language pathologists, and physicians. Included professionals self-identified as hearing health care providers for adults with CIs. Survey topics included the scope of AR, practice patterns and professional roles in service delivery, and barriers to providing comprehensive adult AR services.

Results:
Sensory management services were reported as standard audiological practice but were considered within the scope of AR by less than half of the 63 participating clinicians. Nearly 80% of respondents viewed counseling and instruction services as components of AR. In addition, 97% believed that the scope of AR practice included perceptual training, but these elements were provided less often than any other component. Audiologists commonly provided counseling and instruction, sometimes in conjunction with speech-language pathologists. Multidisciplinary approaches generally enhanced the breadth and depth of services offered by providers. Common obstacles to comprehensive AR practice included inadequate reimbursement, limited patient uptake, and a scarcity of available and qualified providers.

Conclusions:
The survey results illustrated varied clinical practice patterns and a range of professional perspectives regarding AR for adults with CIs. A deeper examination of the critical barriers to a more standard narrative and approach is warranted to guide the advancement of comprehensive AR for adults with CIs.

Authors: Sheikholeslami Seyed Mahmoud , Volkmann Lutz 
Published: June 2022

Let G be a graph with vertex set V(G). A total Italian dominating function (TIDF) on a graph G is a function f : V(G) → {0, 1, 2} such that (i) every vertex v with f(v) = 0 is adjacent to a vertex u with f(u) = 2 or to two vertices w and z with f(w) = f(z) = 1, and (ii) every vertex v with f(v) ≥ 1 is adjacent to a vertex u with f(u) ≥ 1. The total Italian domination number γtI(G) on a graph G is the minimum weight of a total Italian dominating function. In this paper, we present Nordhaus–Gaddum type inequalities for the total Italian domination number.
Repair of Septal Perforations
Authors: Kimura Kyle S. , Ortiz Alexandra S. , Stephan Scott J. 
Published: June 2022

AbstractNasal septal perforations have varied etiologies, clinical presentations, and methods of management. Some patients may be asymptomatic, while others may complain of nasal obstruction, crusting, epistaxis, and whistling. Management of nasal septal perforations is guided by the patient's symptoms and characteristics of the perforation. Some lesions can be managed conservatively or with minimally invasive procedures, while others require surgery. Surgical repair of perforations can be challenging and many techniques have been described without a standardized method of management. This article aims to provide a comprehensive review of options for repair of nasal septal perforations.
New Behavioral Signs of Consciousness in Patients with Severe Brain Injuries
Authors: Mat Beril , Sanz Leandro R.D. , Arzi Anat , Boly Melanie , Laureys Steven , Gosseries Olivia 
Published: June 2022

AbstractDiagnostic and prognostic assessment of patients with disorders of consciousness (DoC) presents ethical and clinical implications as they may affect the course of medical treatment and the decision to withdraw life-sustaining therapy. There has been increasing research in this field to lower misdiagnosis rates by developing standardized and consensual tools to detect consciousness. In this article, we summarize recent evidence regarding behavioral signs that are not yet included in the current clinical guidelines but could detect consciousness. The new potential behavioral signs of consciousness described here are as follows: resistance to eye opening, spontaneous eye blink rate, auditory localization, habituation of auditory startle reflex, olfactory sniffing, efficacy of swallowing/oral feeding, leg crossing, facial expressions to noxious stimulation, and subtle motor behaviors. All of these signs show promising results in discriminating patients' level of consciousness. Multimodal studies with large sample sizes in different centers are needed to further evaluate whether these behaviors reliably indicate the presence of consciousness. Future translation of these research findings into clinical practice has potential to improve the accuracy of diagnosis and prognostication for patients with DoC.

Abstract
Celiac disease is an enteropathy characterized by malabsorption related with gluten intolerance and immune-mediated pathogenesis. It may manifest with gastrointestinal features like diarrhea, abdominal pain, weight loss, and anemia. Besides, it can manifest with various extraintestinal features like ataxia, neuropathy, stroke, or sometimes venous sinus thrombosis. Being of autoimmune origin, relation with systemic lupus erythematosus has also been reported. Herein, we present a rare case of a young patient with celiac disease who presented with fever, headache, and altered sensorium and was found to have meningitis with deep cerebral venous sinus thrombosis.
Politeness in hotel service encounter interactions in Spain
Authors: Fernández-Amaya Lucía 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
Customer satisfaction in hotels has been measured by considering different aspects of the client’s experience, one of these being interaction with hotel staff. The receptionist is probably the most important member of staff in this context, since this person is the first that the customer meets upon arrival and the one consulted when having a problem or doubt. In this paper, receptionists’ views regarding what they consider to be appropriate verbal and non-verbal behaviour in reception desk service encounters in Spain are analysed. The results show that (a) the participants have very specific expectations regarding what constitutes appropriate receptionist behaviour and (b) there appears to be a general preference for deference politeness strategies and a focus on the transactional part of the interaction.
More than writing on the wall
Authors: Savela Timo 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
This article is dedicated to the analysis of visual multimodality and agency in a school unit situated in Southwestern Finland. The school unit is approached as a node of intersecting discourses and its visible features are investigated as materialized discourses. The results indicate that writing is the preferred mode of visual expression in this learning environment and that there is a shift in modes from image to writing as students progress in the school system, which reflects the existing de jure educational discourses. Moreover, while teachers and school staff are the most active agents in the school unit, the assessment of multimodality indicates that students appear more passive than they are if research focuses only on writing. Moreover, not taking images into account risks reinforcing the traditional notion of writing as the only proper form of expression.
Repetition and paraphrase in contexts of concordant and discordant orientations
Authors: Panseeta Sayamol , Watson Todd Richard 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
Language processing theory posits that a person chooses words based on how he/she conceptualizes the referent.
Where there are two or more interlocutors, depending on the way they conceptualize the referent, their word choices may be the
same or different. In an unpublished paper, Sinclair claims that when interlocutors are in concordance, they are likely to repeat
the word choices of their partners; when they are in discordance, they are likely to use paraphrases. This article investigates
this claim by examining whether there is a relationship between two types of reiteration of concepts (repetition and paraphrase)
and interlocutors’ orientations (concordant and discordant). 100 hotel reviews and responses posted on
Trip­Advisor were collected to form two corpora representing the two contexts. The data was analyzed
quantitatively to obtain comparative frequencies of repetition and paraphrase in each context, and connotations of paraphrases
were identified to see whether there is any association between the types of connotations and interlocutors’ orientations. The
results stand in contrast to Sinclair’s claim. More specifically, paraphrase outnumbers repetition in both contexts, and
repetition is more preferred in discordant contexts. Affective connotations are more common in the reviews where the hotels are
rated “terrible” and the reviewers and the respondents show opposing views on the concepts.
Climate catastrophe: the struggle continues
Authors: Bujra Janet 
Published: June 2022

ABSTRACT
Climate changes are disproportionately affecting Africa. In this outstanding book, employing a political economy analysis, Jonathan Neale shows how the global crisis might be averted. A forensic examination of the way that fossil fuels are implicated, and how use of them could be diminished in favour of investing in renewable energy, is allied to a consideration of the political forces which might be marshalled against the energy corporates which profit from potential tragedy.
Luminosity functions consistent with a pulsar-dominated Galactic Center excess
Authors: Dinsmore Jack T. , Slatyer Tracy R. 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
A new population of millisecond pulsars is a long-standing proposed explanation for the excess of GeV-scale gamma rays emanating from the region surrounding the center of the Milky Way (the “Galactic Center excess”). We examine several simple parameterizations of possible luminosity functions for this population, as well as several benchmark luminosity functions proposed in the literature, and compare the predicted populations of resolved point sources to the Fermi 4FGL-DR2 point source catalog and a sub-population recently identified using wavelet-based methods. We provide general results that can be used to translate upper limits on the number of resolved point sources associated with the excess, and the fraction of the flux in the excess that can be attributed to resolved sources, into limits on the luminosity function parameter space. We discuss a number of important systematic uncertainties, including in the detection threshold model and the total flux attributed to the excess. We delineate regions of parameter space (containing existing benchmark models) where there is no apparent tension with current data, and the number of total pulsars needed to explain the excess is in the range of 𝒪(104-5). In the future, lowered point source detection thresholds could be achieved either by new analysis methods or new data. An order-of-magnitude reduction in the sensitivity threshold (which may already be achieved by novel analyses probing sub-threshold source populations) could hope to resolve more than 30% of the flux of the excess even in pessimistic scenarios.
Smooth hybrid inflation with low reheat temperature and observable gravity waves in SU(5) × U(1)χ super-GUT
Authors: Ahmed Waqas , Karozas Athanasios , Leontaris George K. , Zubair Umer 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
We realize smooth hybrid inflation in the framework of supersymmetric SU(5) × U(1)χ ⊂ SO(10) model which provides a natural solution to the monopole problem appearing in the spontaneous symmetry breaking of SU(5). The breaking of U(1)χ symmetry leaves a residual discrete Z
2 symmetry, that serves as the MSSM matter parity, realizing the possibility of the lightest supersymmetric particle as a cold dark matter candidate. The d = 5 proton lifetime for the decay p ⟶ K
+ν̅, mediated by color-triplet Higgsinos is found to satisfy current experimental bounds if split-high scale SUSY scenario is employed. We show that with minimal Kähler potential, the soft supersymmetry breaking terms play a vital rôle in bringing the scalar spectral index ns
within the Planck's latest bounds. In a minimal Kähler potential setup, small values of tensor-to-scalar ratio r ≲ 3.5 × 10-7 are obtained, whereas the gravitino mass turns out to be in the range that favors PeV scale SUSY but is not sufficiently high to avoid the d = 5 proton decay. A non-minimal Kähler potential including higher order corrections is required to realize successful inflation with central value of scalar spectral index ns
= 0.9655, large tensor modes r ≲ 0.056 and a low reheat temperature (3 × 106 ≲ Tr
≲ 6.5 × 107) GeV consistent with leptogenesis and baryogenesis.

Abstract
Black garlic is a processed garlic product which is obtained by heat treatment of the raw garlic at high temperature under high humidity for several days. It was reported that black garlic has stronger antioxidant activity than raw garlic. This research aimed to produce black garlic from indigenous Indonesian garlic and its characteristics. The raw material used was Sangga Sembalun garlic variety. The study was designed using a completely randomized design, consisted of one factor, namely the type of garlic clove (x1: single clove and x2: multi clove), with four replications. The results showed that when garlic undergoes heat treatment, various properties changes occur, including changes in physicochemical and antioxidant content. Single clove black garlic has antioxidant higher than multi clove black garlic. The single clove black garlic had moisture of 47.83%, fructose of 4.92%, glucose of 2.85%, sucrose of 1.36%, maltose of 0.63%, total flavonoid of 2054.9 ppm, total phenol of 335.43 ppm, and S-allyl cysteine of 635.09 mg/100 g. Meanwhile, the compound clove black garlic had total flavonoid of 1745.7 ppm, total phenol of 104.71 ppm, and S-allyl cysteine of 326.7 mg/100 g.

Published: June 2022

Abstract
Urban agriculture is multifunctional. The environmental function is one of the agricultural functions. This research focuses on the level of carbon sequestration in food crops and vegetables. Furthermore, we estimate carbon sequestration differences in farming and non-farming land. This study calculates carbon sequestration using destructive methods. Furthermore, food crops carbon sequestration better than vegetable crops. In the same crop, there is more carbon sequestration in farming land when compared to non-farming land. Economically, this carbon sequestration can provide substantial economic value if it is better managed by considering urban spatial planning.

Abstract
This study compared two nonlinear models for growth performance of broiler after fed different levels of fermented tamarind flour as replacing soya bean meal. Two experiments were designed for this purpose. In first experiment, 20 chickens (Lohmann MB202) that had been fed on the different level of tamarind flour and weighed to determine best model suitable. In second experiment the treatment of the study was basal feed (control): basal feed substitute soy bean meal with tamarind flour 25%: basal feed substitute soy bean meal with tamarind flour 50%: basal feed substitute soy bean meal with tamarind flour 100%. The results showed that the used of tamarind flour did not give a significant effect (p > 0.05) on the production performance. It concluded the comparison of growth models in terms of goodness revealed that gompertz is the most appropriate model for describing between age and body weight in this experiment.

Authors: Ngongo Y , Ratnawaty S , Matitaputty PR 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
Since Cattle introduced in Semi Area of East Nusa Tenggara (ENT), Bali Cattle in Timor Island is considered as the most productive cattle in terms of population. In the last 10 years Bali cattle in West Timor (Indonesia) is around 550,000 – 980,000 head, however the quality/performance of Bali cattle is considered degraded and also native vegetation continuing depleted. Until recently, forage is the main limitation for cattle production in semi-arid region of Timor. This paper discusses cattle farming development in semi-arid region of ENT, how to address the forage shortage and farmers’ response to the introduced cattle-forage innovations. The data and information were mainly taken from the collaboration research program of ACIAR and AIAT-NTT, particularly in Leucaena (Leucaena leucocephala Var. Tarramba) development. The study revealed that traditional cattle farming relies on grazing land and abandoned/fallow land during dry season for forage. Fattening systems practiced mainly in the area or farmers that have enough forage, particularly Leucaena. Farmer’s plant Leucaena as part of local agroforestry and or integrated forage into maize farming as main strategy to overcome forage shortage problem. Farmers considered innovation related Leucaena as the best innovation/approach to improve cattle farming in semi-arid area. It is concluded that introduced forage legume, particularly Leucaena in semi-arid areas have increased carrying capacity of pastureland, improved soil fertility and decreased shifting cultivation or encourage more permanent crop land.

Published: June 2022

Abstract
Energy subsidy is a common policy in developing countries to protect poor people. Yet, the policy can become a budget burden such as LPG subsidy for cooking in Indonesia, reaching US$ 3.9 billion in 2018. In this study, we analyze the feasibility of the induction program currently proposed the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, and the State-owned Electricity Company. We use multiple approaches involving energy equivalence measurement, LPG consumption survey, input-output analysis, and feasibility analysis on both government and household perspective. Our analysis results that the policy can significantly reduce the energy cost for cooking on poorer households while relatively wealthy household undergoes higher energy costs for cooking because many of them are still using the subsidized LPG 3 kg cylinder. For them, the energy cost of the induction stove will be lower than the energy cost of the unsubsidized LPG 12 kg cylinder

Abstract
Silica gel is widely used in industrial and pharmaceuticals, especially as a moisture absorber. Silica gel can be synthesized from a material containing high SiO2. One of natural material SiO2 resource is palm kernel shell ash (PKSA). PKSA contains 55.2% SiO2. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of silica gel from PKSA as a moisture content absorber for bottle packaging medicine. This study used experimental method with laboratory analysis. The steps in this study were initiated with the preparation of PKSA, synthesis of silica gel from PKSA, characterization of the synthesized silica gel with X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) instruments, water content analysis to determine the optimum absorption time of silica gel as a moisture absorber for bottle packaging medicine followed by testing the effectiveness silica gel at the optimum absorption time. The results showed that obtained silica gel from PKSA with a yield of 34%. XRF characterization shows content of SiO2 by 45.13 %. XRD characterization shows the nature of the solid silica gel in the form of crystalline phase. The optimum absorption time is 2 weeks for silica gel from PKSA. The effectiveness of the silica gel from the PKSA is 85.65 % as bottle packaging medicine moisture content absorber. Further analysis is needed on how to minimize the level of impurities in silica gel of PKSA to increase the effectiveness as a bottle packaging medicine moisture absorber.
