Background:
Hantavirus causes hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome, thus posing a major threat to human health in Jiangxi Province, China. Both Hantaan virus (HTNV) and Seoul virus (SEOV) have been found to be endemic in the province.

Methods:
Rodents were trapped from Gaoan Anyi and Tonggu counties in Jiangxi Province in 2020–2021. Hantavirus specific antibodies in the blood and RNA in the lung samples from the captured mammals were detected and analyzed.

Results:
A total of 889 small mammals from seven species were collected. Positive detection was observed for hantavirus antibodies in 9.8% (87/889), SEOV RNA in 1% (9/889) and HTNV RNA in 2.6% (23/889). The difference in detection rates between regions was significant. Phylogenetic analysis of the obtained partial sequences of M and S segments revealed that two distinct genotypes of HTNV and three genotypes of SEOV were co-circulating in the captured mammals, with a regionally specific distribution.

Conclusion:
Multiple distinct genotypes of hantavirus are co-circulating in the province. Further studies in broader areas remain needed to reveal the diversity of hantaviruses.

Integrated Structures of Corporations: Ukrainian Legal Reality
Authors: Kostruba Anatoliy 
Published: September 2022

The article is devoted to the study of legal nature of the mechanism for association of legal entities. Such associations of legal entities are realized in order to attract not only capital and other production resources, including labor, but also in order to satisfy nonproperty interests.Legal capacity of legal entities in the process of their merger is analyzed, based on what – statutory or contractual – association of corporations is determined. The statutory association does not lead to the creation of another fiction other than a legal entity, due to which it is ensured through its inherent organizational legal forms. The contractual association does not require the formation of a new legal entity (concern, consortium, association (union), syndicate, conglomerate, cartel, pool).In the event of such consolidation of legal entities, the contractual structure of a simple company or other joint activity is formed, formally close to such person at law as a legal entity. The difference between the above procedure of merging from the first option lies in the degree of autonomy of the members from each other, as well as in the expected result of such merger.

However, it could present some differences in interpretation of the provisions of the Convention in the Ukrainian legislation and in the practice of the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR). The aim of the article is to approximate national criminal law to international standards and the practice of the ECHR. The object of the article is essence of Criminal Law in the practice of the ECHR.
Géza Alföldy and the study of Roman religion
Authors: Szabó Csaba , García Gustavo Alberto Vivas 
Published: September 2022

Abstract
Géza Alföldy (1935–2011) is considered as one of the most important epigraphists and historians of the Roman civilization of the late 20th century, known also as “Mommsen of our ages”. His contribution is indispensable not only for the discipline of Roman epigraphy and social history, but also for the study of Roman religion. His intellectual roots in Hungary and the influence of the Hungarian scholarly tradition of the 1950’s marked his interest in the study of Roman religion for a long period. In this study, the authors discuss the formation of Géza Alföldy and his contribution to the discipline through a wider academic and socio-historical context.
A negative career shock and career capital: The perspective of sports clubs personnel during the COVID-19 pandemic
Authors: Nessel Karolina 
Published: September 2022

AbstractThis study explored the impact of the COVID-19 career shock to career capital among sports clubs personnel. With this aim, an explanatory mixed-method research was undertaken based on data gathered via a survey among the personnel of sports clubs in Poland (N = 226). The quantitative stage of data analysis (a multivariate analysis of covariance) determined the scale of the changes in career capital and its elements (knowing-how, knowing-why, knowing-whom) across different respondent groups, while the subsequent thematic analysis of the data gathered through open questions explored the sources of these changes. The results show that the shock had a positive impact mainly on knowing-how, and a lesser one on knowing-why, while it was neutral for knowing-whom. Nevertheless, there is an important heterogeneity of the experiences among sports club personnel, even when accounting for the differences in the way that COVID-19 impacted their clubs. By exploring the consequences of a career shock to career capital, this study contributes to career construction theory.
Reasonable expectations for replications of psychedelic-assisted therapy: The case for prediction intervals rather than P-values
Authors: Earleywine Mitch , Kamilar-Britt Philip 
Published: September 2022

AbstractPsychedelic compounds hold promise for alleviating human suffering. Initial trials of psychedelic-assisted treatments have established feasibility and safety, generating calls for replications. Meanwhile, social and medical sciences have drawn criticism due to perceptions of replication failures and varying public trust in empiricism. Data suggest that researchers and the public frequently misunderstand some of the statistical issues associated with replication, potentially leading to unrealistic expectations of treatment effects. Promoting discourse on what constitutes sufficient replication is especially warranted considering the ongoing progression of multi-site phase II and III clinical trials. Here, we review recent and classic work on prediction intervals and power analysis to reveal that trials of psychedelic-assisted therapy that emphasize statistical significance will likely include failures to replicate, especially if sample sizes do not increase dramatically. The field and the public should expect some failed replication attempts based on sampling variability alone. Continued emphasis on statistical significance will require markedly larger samples than those used in clinical trials to date, necessitating substantially greater resources. An alternative approach focused on prediction intervals has distinct advantages. We focus on a recent trial of MDMA-assisted therapy for PTSD to show that, based on prediction intervals, reasonable replications are well within reach. A lack of attention to these statistical issues could unnecessarily prompt widespread dismissal of these therapies before the intervention receives adequate investigation and a fair assessment. In contrast, realistic expectations and appropriate planning could help ensure that these treatments receive the opportunity to help those most in need.

Published: September 2022

AbstractAs of May 2021, public alerting is now operational for the ShakeAlert earthquake early warning system for the West Coast of the United States in California, Oregon, and Washington. Successful early warning systems require the scientific and technical implementation to be coupled with social and humanitarian considerations, including education and outreach campaigns. Community engagement with the over 50 million people who live in ShakeAlert states is important to increase public safety, security, and awareness of local earthquake hazards, how to prepare, and how ShakeAlert earthquake early warning can help. Here, we describe the efforts of the ShakeAlert Educational Resources Working Group around the rollout of public alerting in the Pacific Northwest for Oregon in March 2021 and Washington in May 2021, respectively. Our initial approach was to engage in formative dialogue with community members in each ShakeAlert state, develop educational activities and animations based on the collective feedback, and then to disseminate our resources in both formal (K-16) and informal (free choice) learning environments through workshops and outreach events. The rollout of public alerting in the Pacific Northwest provided an opportunity to directly engage with various publics around a specific event, and to collaborate with local news and social media, communications and social science professionals, educators, emergency managers, and scientific and technical experts on the ShakeAlert system. Following the rollouts, we developed a strategic plan for the next five years of ShakeAlert to promote earthquake early warning, as the importance of earthquake preparedness competes with the stressors of everyday life. Because earthquake early warning systems are rapidly expanding worldwide, our education and outreach efforts provide a roadmap for building successful education and outreach campaigns, leading up to public alerting and maintaining earthquake preparedness in the public consciousness following rollout.

Published: September 2022

Teeth are an integral part of facial aesthetics involved in complex social, cultural & psychological interaction. Of all, in latest, tooth color measurement has attracted attention in the ﬁeld of dentistry for assessing age.To assess the correlation between the enamel color and chronological age and to evaluate the age of an individual from enamel color.This was a cross sectional study that included a total of 200 individuals attending the outpatient Department of Oral Medicine & Radiology.The individuals were divided into five groups based on age with 40 in each group. Inclusion criteria comprised of healthy maxillary central, lateral incisor, canine, premolar and molar teeth that were free from cavities, fracture, endodontically treated teeth and those free from stain were selected. The tooth shade was recorded using Vitapan classical shade guide. Firstly, value of the color was assessed followed by hue and then chroma.Numerical scrutiny was conducted using Statistical Package for Social Sciences. Comparison and correlation of the definite variables between the groups was done by Pearson Chi‑square test.For central and lateral incisor common shade was B2 and for canine teeth all the groups had A3 shade and results obtained was statistically significant except for the premolars with B2 was the most common shade for groups I, II and IV, but the B1 (yellowish hue) shade was common in group 2 and C2 shade was common in group V with statistically significant results. For molars B2 was the most common shade for groups I – IV with C2 shade was common in group V with statistically significant results.Natural tooth color can be used as an effective means of age estimation.

Published: September 2022

The disorders of the thyroid gland are on the rise. Radioactive iodine (RAI- I-131) is now used for the treatment of hyperthyroidism and thyroid carcinoma. This helps in the destruction of the follicular cells and radiation help in annulling the cancer cells. RAI has many adverse effects; the short-term effects include – gastrointestinal, salivary dysfunction, and thyroiditis, and long-term adverse effects - secondary carcinomas. The facilities for giving radioactive iodine therapy (RAIT) are less in the state of Kerala; also the adverse effects of RAIT are less studied in our population.To evaluate the pattern of short-term adverse effects following high doses of radioactive iodine therapy in patients with thyroid carcinomaThis study was designed as a prospective observational study conducted on patients attending the Department of Nuclear Medicine for high-dose radioiodine therapy in a tertiary care center. Patients were followed up for any occurrences of adverse effects for six months. Data were analyzed using SPSS software version 18 and an independent t-test was done to find the association between dose and adverse drug reactions (ADR).The study comprised 75 participants, of which, 59(79%) were females. The adverse reactions were reported by 59 participants (79%). Loss of taste and smell in 48 participants (64%), xerostomia in 30 patients (40%) were reported. After one month of RAIT, these subsided. The association of dose vs ADR was found to be significant (p=0.008). The complete blood counts (CBC) were done pre-and post- RAIT showed a statistically significant decrease in all parameters (p=0.00 each).Radioactive iodine produces short-term adverse effects which are self-limiting. However, there is a need to identify and manage it for better treatment and patient compliance.

The article was written as a continuation of the research on degassing wells in terms of their gas productivity in a landfill. Waste is one of the most serious threats to the environment. The term ‘waste’ means ‘any substance or object which the holder discards, he intends to get rid of, or which he has been required to get rid of’. The European Union, with the aim of ensuring a high quality of life and health of people through effective environmental protection, imposes on Poland very restrictive guidelines in the field of waste management. These guidelines include: waste prevention, preparation for re-use, recycling, other recovery methods, disposal. The waste goes to landfills, where it is collected. Landfills pose a very high threat to the natural environment because they emit pollutants into the atmosphere. The greatest threat is related to the organic matter contained in municipal waste, which during decomposition emits greenhouse gases such as CO2 and CH4. The amount of emitted gas can be reduced by equipping the landfill with a special installation for the production of landfill gas (biogas). Biogas is one of the alternative energy sources that can be used to produce electricity and heat. However, the installation itself is not enough, and the landfill must also be rationally managed to support biogas production. Within the mass of waste, optimal conditions should be created for the methanogenesis process to take place. Compacting or pouring waste into layers of earth may serve as examples. Both of these processes reduce the oxygen content in the stored material. However, the content of the organic fraction in the deposited waste has the most pronounced influence on the production of biogas. The article presents the results of research on the efficiency of degassing wells carried out in one of the active municipal landfills which was established in 2009. Five degassing wells located in different parts of the dump’s canopy were subjected to our measurements.
A ficção da verdade nas "astronômicas" de Manílio
Authors: Fernandes Marcelo Vieira 
Published: September 2022

O problema do tratamento poético aplicado à exposição de matérias técnicas é tema rapidamente abordado em algumas tradições críticas antigas e, por vezes, no interior do próprio discurso de certos poetas didáticos. É o caso de Manílio, que em suas Astronômicas nos apresenta como mestre uma persona doctoris para quem a ornamentação poética do enunciado técnico representa, conflituosamente, uma impossibilidade material, uma dificuldade métrica e uma necessidade didática. Mas, sendo ainda uma forma sofisticada de prazer para o poeta, a exposição metrificada de objetos matemáticos mais complexos da astrologia, que o seduzem de modo particular, é ocasião para o exercício de certas variações poéticas que às vezes o levam, inadvertidamente, à confecção de lições tecnicamente incorretas. Para tratar desses pontos, faço aqui, então, uma rápida introdução a algumas das questões acerca da poesia didática antiga e à própria leitura do poema de Manílio (em geral pouco conhecido entre os estudantes brasileiros de letras clássicas), com a exposição de alguns passos importantes de sua reflexão metapoética e a rápida ilustração de um de seus erros técnicos.
Data fusion using Multiple Factor Analysis coupled with non-linear pattern recognition (fuzzy k-means): application to Chenin blanc
Authors: Mafata Mpho , Brand Jeanne , Buica Astrid 
Published: September 2022

Patterns in data obtained from wine chemical and sensory evaluations are difficult to decipher using classical statistics. Coupling data fusion with machine learning techniques could assist in solving these issues and lead to new hypotheses. The current study investigated the applicability of classical and machine learning pattern recognition approaches for oenological applications. A sample set of 23 Chenin blanc wines made from young (< 35 years) and old (> 35 years) vines were analysed (recently bottled (Year 1) and after two years of storage (Year 2)). Sensory (sorting) and chemical (NMR: nuclear magnetic resonance and HRMS: high-resolution mass spectrometry) data were collected. Multiple factor analysis (MFA) was used for the data fusion. Cluster analysis was performed by agglomerative hierarchical clustering (AHC) and fuzzy k-means. Optimal cluster conditions were found for both methods and the cophenetic coefficient was used to assess the confidence of fit. Given the large number of variables, the models were complex. Inconsistent clustering patterns were observed when varying clustering conditions, indicating high similarity between samples. Overall, fuzzy k-means resolved clustering patterns better than AHC and, coupled with data fusion, improved the interpretation of the complex oenological data.
Customer Behaviour Analysis to Improve Detection of Fraudulent Transactions Using Deep Learning

Published: September 2022

Abstract

With the advancement of technology, the daily use of bank credit cards has been increasing exponentially. Therefore, the fraudulent use of credit cards by others as one of the new crimes is also growing fast. For this reason, detecting and preventing these attacks has become an active area of study. This article discusses the challenges of detecting fraudulent banking transactions and presents solutions based on deep learning. Transactions are examined and compared with other traditional models in fraud detection. According to the results obtained, optimal performance is related to the combined model of deep convolutional networks and short-term memory, which is trained using the aggregated data received from the generative adversarial network. This paper intends to produce sensible data to address the unequal class distribution problem, which is far more effective than traditional methods. Also, it uses the strengths of the two approaches by combining deep convolutional network and Long Short Term Memory network to improve performance. Due to the inefficiency of evaluation criteria such as accuracy in this application, the measure of distance score and the equal error rate has been used to evaluate models more transparent and more precise. Traditional methods were compared to the proposed approach to evaluate the efficiency of the experiment.

Abstract
It is unclear to what extent the absence of vision affects the sensory sensitivity for oneiric construction. Similarly, the presence of visual imagery in the mentation of dreams of congenitally blind people has been largely disputed. We investigate the presence and nature of oneiric visuo-spatial impressions by analysing the dreams of the congenitally blind people identified from the online database DreamBank. A higher presence of auditory, haptic, olfactory and gustatory sensation in dreams of congenitally blind was demonstrated, by comparison to normally sighted individuals. Nonetheless, oneiric visual imagery in reports of congenitally blind subjects was also noted, in opposition to some previous studies and raising the questions about the possible underlying neuromechanisms.
The Association Between Autistic Traits and Serum Testosterone, Oxytocin and Androstenedione Levels in Prepubertal Male Drug Naive Children with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder

Abstract
Children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) might have problems similar to autism spectrum disorders and show impairment in social behaviour. Also, there is a relationship between social relationship skills and ToM (Theory of Mind) skills in children with ADHD. Besides, ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder) is associated with prenatal exposure to high levels of androgens, and oxytocin plays a role in the modulation of emotions, coping with stress, and social behaviour such as ASD. In this study, the relationship between autistic traits and serum oxytocin, testosterone, and androstenedione levels in prepubertal male drug naive children with ADHD has been investigated. Prepubertal children with ADHD have been included in the study. For the children included in the study, intelligence levels were evaluated with WISC-4 (Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-fourth edition) and autistic traits were measured with both social responsiveness scale and theory of mind tests. Serum levels of oxytocin, testosterone, and androstenedione were measured with ELISA (The enzyme linked immunosorbent assay). While serum testosterone of patients with lower autistic traits are significantly lower than those with and severe autistic traits, the serum oxytocin levels are significantly higher. Also, patients with severe autistic traits have significantly higher serum androstenedione levels than those with lower autistic traits and autistic traits. It has been suggested that oxytocin, testosterone, and androstenedione might play roles in impaired social functions such as autistic traits, and this might be related to social relationships and theory of mind skills in patients with ADHD.
