Authors: Lankrew Ayalew Tadele , Gelaw Wale Belete , Tefera Zewudie Bitew 
Published: November 2022

Background
Hypoglycemia is an urgent, life-threatening condition that requires prompt recognition and treatment for diabetes mellitus patients to prevent organ and brain damage. Hypoglycemia is one of the most important complications of diabetes mellitus patients around the globe. Hypoglycemia may increase vascular events and even death, in addition to other possible detrimental effects. In spite of the absence of other risk factors, patients receiving intensive insulin therapy are more likely to experience hypoglycemia. To reduce the risk of hypoglycemia and calculate the combined prevalence of hypoglycemia prevention practices among diabetes mellitus patients, recognition of hypoglycemia is critical.

Objective
The main aim of this review was to evaluate the available data on Ethiopian diabetes mellitus patients’ practices for preventing hypoglycemia and related factors.

Methods and materials
This review was searched using PubMed, the Cochrane Library, Google, Google Scholar, and the Web of Sciences. Microsoft Excel was used to extract the data. All statistical analyses were done using STATA Version 14 software with a random-effects model. The funnel plot and heterogeneity of the studies were checked. Subgroup analysis was done with the study area and authors’ names.

Results
In this systematic review, 12 studies totaling 3,639 participants were included. The estimated overall practice for preventing hypoglycemia among diabetic patients in Ethiopia were 48.33% (95% CI (28.21%, 68.46%, I2 = 99.7%, p ≤ 0.001). According to the subgroup analysis based on region, the highest estimated prevalence of the prevention practice of hypoglycemia among diabetes patients in Addis Ababa was 90%, followed by SNNRP at 76.18% and in the Amhara region at 68.31% respectively. The least prevalent was observed in the Oromia region 6.10%. In this meta-analysis, diagnoses with type II diabetes (AOR = 2.53, 95%CI: 1.05, 4.04), duration (AOR = 5.49, 95%CI:3.27,7.70), taking insulin for a long time(AOR = 4.31,95%CI:2.60,6.02), having good prevention knowledge (AOR = 2.89, 95%CI: 1.15,4.23), and occupation (AOR = 4.17, 95%CI: 2.20, 6.15) were significantly associated with hypoglycemia prevention practice.

Conclusions
This systematic review revealed that diabetic patients in Ethiopia had poor hypoglycemia prevention practices. Being an employee, taking insulin for a long time, having a good prevention practice, and having a type of diabetes mellitus were strongly correlated with practicing hypoglycemia prevention. This review implied the subsequent need for educational interventions for an individualized patient.
Association between incidence of dengue cases and rainfall precipitation in Perak Darul Ridzuan
Authors: Thurairasu Vanitha , Muhamad Ruziah 
Published: November 2022

INTRODUCTION
Dengue is a significant global public health concern for many decades, especially in the tropical and sub-tropical regions. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), 390 million cases of dengue cases are reported each year, with Asia accounting for 70% of them. Statistically, Malaysia recorded 130,101 cases in 2019 with almost a 60% increase over 2018, with 182 mortalities. The ongoing hyperendemicity has called for an effective early warning system.

OBJECTIVE
The objective of this study is to determine the association between average rainfall precipitation and dengue incidence in Perak state. Subsequently, it aimed to serve as a preliminary study to further explore the use of weather forecast in predicting dengue incidences.

METHODOLOGY
This is a correlational study on the association between rainfall precipitation and the number of dengue cases in Perak state between year 2014 to 2021. All confirmed dengue cases in Perak from 2014 to 2021 notified in the dengue surveillance database were included in this study. Data analysis was performed using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 25. To assess the relationship between dengue incidence/ month and rainfall precipitation/ month (mm/day) in 2014, a bivariate Pearson’s correlation coefficient (
r) analysis was performed.

RESULTS
Based on the results, a strong positive correlation was observed between dengue incidence/ month with rainfall precipitation/ month (mm/day) in the year 2014 and 2015. Thereafter, a strong negative correlation was seen between both these variable from 2016 to 2021. However, this study did not adjust for other meteorological factors such as temperature and wind speed in this locality.

CONCLUSION
The study has provided relatively strong statistical evidence of the association between rainfall and dengue outbreaks in Perak, thereby indicating that it is a factor worthy of careful surveillance and monitoring. Methodology and evidence observed from this study could serve as a strong preliminary baseline to further associate other meteorological factors to develop an efficacious spatio-temporal weather forecasting model in predicting dengue outbreaks in Malaysia. This could strengthen the control of dengue outbreaks by developing early warning systems.

The latest Review of the Month, written by Spanish geologist Carles Soriano, considers the implications of idea of the Capitalocene, the historical determinations affecting the study of the Earth Sciences, and how our views of the current planetary crisis are often shaped by inadequate narratives. Current approaches, he writes are "non-dialectic and non-materialist regarding the study of social reproduction modes, and this renders the whole understanding of the planetary crisis not only incomplete but idealist, for the capitalist mode is assumed as absolute rather than historical."
Length, position, and functions of inter-clausal Chinese–English code-switching in a bilingual novel
Authors: Wang Lin 
Published: November 2022

AbstractBased on a written Chinese–English code-switching corpus compiled from a Singaporean bilingual novel, this paper reports on the distribution of instances of inter-clausal code-switching in terms of their length, the distribution of the position of instances of inter-clausal code-switching in mixed sentences, and the pragmatic functions of inter-clausal code-switching of different lengths in different sentence positions. The study yields four results. First, the distribution in terms of length fits Zipf’s Law well, and bilingual speakers attempt to avoid lengthy inter-clausal code-switching in their communication. Second, the majority of inter-clausal code-switching appears in sentence boundary positions. Third, the major pragmatic functions of shorter or longer instances of inter-clausal code-switching are turn-opening, turn-closing, explicitness, and accuracy. Finally, instances of inter-clausal code-switching with medium clause lengths have two main functions, which are the conveying of irony and emphasis.
Is There a Privacy Paradox in Digital Social Media Use? The Role of Privacy Concerns and Social Norms

Published: November 2022

Abstract
The phenomenon of the privacy paradox states that people are concerned about their data, but do not behave accordingly by avoiding disclosure of personal data, for instance, when using social media. Since findings about the influence of privacy concerns on privacy-related behavior are controversial, the present study investigates whether social norms or individual privacy concerns provide a better explanation of disclosure behavior. Therefore, a social media app dummy was developed and the social norm manipulated by altering the amount and the sensitivity of information provided in a fictitious app user profile. Regarding social norm factors, the results of the online experiment (N = 42) revealed that only the sensitivity of the data in the dummy profile demonstrated a medium effect on the amount of personal data given by the participants. Considering individual factors, the less concerned individuals were about their privacy, the higher were the amount and the degree of sensitivity of the personal information participants disclosed. In addition, participants differentiated between sensitive or non-sensitive information when disclosing their data. They disclosed sensitive information significantly less often, regardless of the dummy profile they saw. Altogether, the study results do not support the privacy paradox and demonstrate implications for media education.

Published: November 2022

Abstract
The present work reports results of spectral parameters of Zn-like, Ga-like, and Ge-like Re ions using the multiconfiguration Dirac–Hartree–Fock method. Energy levels, transition probabilities, weighted oscillator strengths, line strengths, and wavelengths are given for Zn-like, Ga-like, and Ge-like Re ions. Breit interactions and quantum electrodynamics corrections are taken into consider. Comparisons are performed between the calculated energy levels and wavelengths with other available values, which show that the calculated results are in good agreement with each other for Zn-like Re ions. And the spectral parameters of Ga-like Re and Ge-like Re are also calculated which are new and unpublished previously.
Attention to Stimuli of Learned versus Innate Biological Value Relies on Separate Neural Systems

Published: November 2022

The neural bases of attention, a set of neural processes that promote behavioral selection, is a subject of intense investigation. In humans, rewarded cues influence attention, even when those cues are irrelevant to the current task. Because the amygdala plays a role in reward processing, and the activity of amygdala neurons has been linked to spatial attention, we reasoned that the amygdala may be essential for attending to rewarded images. To test this possibility, we used an attentional capture task, which provides a quantitative measure of attentional bias. Specifically, we compared reaction times (RTs) of adult male rhesus monkeys with bilateral amygdala lesions and unoperated controls as they made a saccade away from a high- or low-value rewarded image to a peripheral target. We predicted that: (1) RTs will be longer for high- compared with low-value images, revealing attentional capture by rewarded stimuli; and (2) relative to controls, monkeys with amygdala lesions would exhibit shorter RT for high-value images. For comparison, we assessed the same groups of monkeys for attentional capture by images of predators and conspecifics, categories thought to have innate biological value. In performing the attentional capture task, all monkeys were slowed more by high-value relative to low-value rewarded images. Contrary to our prediction, amygdala lesions failed to disrupt this effect. When presented with images of predators and conspecifics, however, monkeys with amygdala lesions showed significantly diminished attentional capture relative to controls. Thus, separate neural pathways are responsible for allocating attention to stimuli with learned versus innate value.SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENTValuable objects attract attention. The amygdala is known to contribute to reward processing and the encoding of object reward value. We therefore examined whether the amygdala is necessary for allocating attention to rewarded objects. For comparison, we assessed the amygdala's contribution to attending to objects with innate biological value: predators and conspecifics. We found that the macaque amygdala is necessary for directing attention to images with innate biological value, but not for directing attention to recently learned reward-predictive images. These findings indicate that the amygdala makes selective contributions to attending to valuable objects. The data are relevant to mental health disorders, such as social anxiety disorders and small animal phobias, that arise from biased attention to select categories of objects.

Levothyroxine malabsorption or pseudomalabsorption? A question in the management of refractory hypothyroidism
Authors: Santos Monteiro Sílvia , Santos Tiago Silva , Lopes Ana Martins , Oliveira José Carlos , Freitas Cláudia , Couto Carvalho André 
Published: November 2022

Purpose
The levothyroxine absorption test (LT4AT) is an important tool for distinguishing hypothyroidism due to malabsorption from ‘pseudomalabsorption’ conditions. Our aim was to review our institution’s LT4AT results and assess its role in the management of patients with refractory hypothyroidism.

Methods
We performed a retrospective study of all patients evaluated for refractory hypothyroidism who underwent LT4AT in our tertiary center between 2014 and 2020. Its results and the impact on thyroid function management during follow-up were assessed.

Results
Ten female patients were included with a mean age of 40 years (min-max: 26–62). Mean weight was 72 kg (min–max: 43–88) and baseline LT4 dosage ranged from 2.5 to 5.3 µg/kg/day. The most common causes of hypothyroidism were postsurgical in 50% (n  = 5) and autoimmune in 20% (n  = 2). During LT4AT, normal LT4 absorption was found in all but one individual (mean FT4 increase of 231%, min–max: 85–668). The only patient with objective LT4 absorption impairment (maximal increase of 48% by hour 5) presented also Helicobacter pylori gastritis and prior history of ‘intestinal surgery’ during childhood. No adverse events were reported during any of the LT4ATs. During follow-up (median 11.5 months (IQR 23)), three patients obtained euthyroidism and six had improved their hypothyroidism state.

Conclusions
The LT4AT is an effective and safe way to assess refractory hypothyroidism and provides valuable information to distinguish LT4 malabsorption from ‘pseudomalabsorption’. Our data suggest that most patients with suspicious LT4 malabsorption perform normally during LT4AT. This test provides relevant information for better management of patients with refractory hypothyroidism.

З метою розробки необхідного складу технологічного мастила, що мають не тільки підвищені антифрикційні властивості, а й забезпечують надійний протикорозійний захист внутрішньої поверхні труб досліджено процес взаємодії зразка натрій пірофосфату з повітряною окалиною, яка утворюється на поверхні труб в процесах гарячого оброблення металів тиском.Методом рентгенофазового аналізу встановлено фазовий склад «повітряної» окалини, яка утворюється на внутрішній поверхні труб в процесах гарячого оброблення металів тиском.Проведено дослідження взаємодії «повітряної» окалини зі зразком натрій пірофосфату як в умовах постійної швидкості нагріву в температурному інтервалі 20 – 1000˚С, так і в ізотермічних умовах при t=800÷1000˚С. У процесі нагрівання суміші натрій пірофосфату та «повітряної» окалини зафіксовано утворення двох нових фаз – Na3PO4 та FePO4. Ферум(III) ортофосфат, має досить високу температуру плавлення (tпл=980˚C). Встановлено, що при температурах більших за температуру плавлення Na4P2O7 у модельній системі протікають такі процеси:- розчинення Fe2O3 у розплаві натрій пірофосфату;- хімічна реакція у розплаві, що протікає з одержанням ферум(III) та натрій ортофосфатів.Визначено вплив розплаву натрій пірофосфату, який утворюється в області температур гарячої деформації на розчинення ферум (III) оксиду.Методом рентгенофазового аналізу досліджено склад модельної суміші Na4P2O7 + 20% «повітряної» окалини. Встановлено можливість використання розплаву ферум фосфатів, як технологічних мастил і формування на внутрішній поверхні шару захисного фосфатного покриття.

Authors: Потапов Володимир Олексійович , Костенко Станіслав Миколайович 
Published: November 2022

У роботі проведено імітаційне моделювання процесу інфрачервоного жарення біфштексів за використання програмного комплексу Vensim, що реалізує системно-динамічну технологію потокового типу. Використання системно-динамічного моделювання уможливлює повну та якісну оцінку впливу таких факторів, як коефіцієнт відбивача, потужність апарату, ціна електроенергії, на характер та значення вихідної функції, тобто реалізацію біфштексу, а також вартість витраченої електроенергії. В імітаційній моделі досліджувався вплив наявності відбивача променевого потоку в апараті інфрачервоного жарення на вихід продукту та витрати електроенергії. Профіль рефлектора забезпечує рівномірне опромінення приймача опуклого перерізу, тобто біфштексу. Використання в апараті відбивача променевого потоку призводить до збільшення виходу продукту на 20 %, скорочення терміну жарення на 40 %, скорочення вартості електроенергії на 35 %. Використання спрофільованих відбивачів, які забезпечують рівномірне опромінювання опуклого теплоприймача, покращує органолептичні властивості продукції та підвищує енергоефективність інфрачервоного обладнання харчових виробництв. Експериментування з імітаційними моделями процесів теплової обробки надає системне підґрунтя для інтенсифікації та оптимізації процесів та обладнання харчових виробництв.
