Published: May 2022

BackgroundIndia is undergoing a demographic transition characterized by population aging and is witnessing a high dementia rate. Although nearly 7 million people live with dementia in India, dementia awareness is poor, and current resources addressing dementia care are basic and often incomplete, duplicated, or conflicting. To address this gap, this study aims to use digital media, which has had a massive technological uptake in India, to improve dementia care in India.ObjectiveThe objective of this paper is to describe an intervention study design that examines the feasibility and acceptability of Moving Pictures India, a digital media resource to improve dementia care in India.MethodsThis study employs a mixed methods design and is divided into 4 phases: (1) video interviews with Indian caregivers and health professionals; (2) coproduction of resources; (3) pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT); and (4) dissemination and analytics. The pilot RCT will follow an experimental parallel group design with 2 arms aiming to assess the impact, feasibility, and acceptability of the developed resources. The primary outcome measures for the pilot RCT will be feasibility and acceptability, while the secondary outcome measures will be caregiver burden, mood, and quality of life.ResultsThis study received funding from the Alzheimer’s Association in the United States in July 2021. In 2023, we will enroll 60 dementia caregivers (40 caregivers in the intervention arm and 20 in the control) for the pilot RCT. The study has been approved by the National Institute of Mental Health and Neuro Sciences Ethics Committee (26th IEC (BEH.SC.DIV.)/2020-21 dated November 11, 2020); the Health Ministry's Screening Committee, India (proposal ID 2020-10137); the Curtin University Human Research Ethics Committee (approval number HRE2020-0735); and the NARI Research Governance Office (site-specific approval dated March 17, 2021).ConclusionsThis protocol is designed to deliver unique, coproduced, and evidence-based media resources to support caregivers of persons with dementia in India and other countries aiming to utilize digital media for dementia care. If the intervention is found feasible and acceptable, postpiloting analytics and qualitative feedback will be used to develop an implementation trial to evaluate the effectiveness of the potential low-risk high-benefit intervention in practice.Trial RegistrationClinical Trials Registry-India CTRI/2021/01/030403; http://ctri.nic.in/Clinicaltrials/pmaindet2.php?trialid=50794International Registered Report Identifier (IRRID)DERR1-10.2196/38456
“The people have a positive attitude to medicine...” (Medical Inspectors in the Formation of Medical and Sanitary Affairs in the Provinces of Pre-Revolutionary Russia)
Authors: Gurkina N. K. 
Published: May 2022

The problem of the history of public administration in the field of medicine and healthcare has never lost its relevance. The Health project has become one of the priority national projects of the last decade. The epidemic that began in 2020 has exacerbated many long-standing problems of Russian medicine: a shortage of medical personnel and medical institutions, insufficient material security of doctors, etc. As a result of the clumsily carried out “optimization” and contradictory actions during the epidemic, the level of confidence of the people and society in the activities of modern health care organizers has fallen. The topic of the state of health care, sanitary and epidemic safety, the role of the state in solving these pressing issues has firmly entered the public discourse, aroused interest in considering historical experience with all its achievements and losses. A significant place in the state administration of medicine and healthcare has always been occupied by specific people — government officials who have made a noticeable and real contribution to the development of health care.The management of medical and sanitary affairs in the provinces of the Russian Empire was carried out by medical inspectors (the position was established in 1865), as a rule, highly qualified doctors with extensive and diverse practical experience. The materials of the Russian State Historical Archive (St. Petersburg) and local archives allow us to make a typical portrait of this category of managers. In the funds of the Medical Department and the Main Medical Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, cases have been postponed in which the official activities and biographies of medical inspectors are characterized. The article examines the main activities of medical inspectors, assesses their contribution to the formation and development of healthcare and medicine in pre-revolutionary Russia. Along with the study of forms and methods of solving medical and sanitary-epidemic problems of the regions by inspectors, the personal qualities of the best managers, which have become the basis for the success of their activities, are also highlighted.

<p>The induction of nausea and emesis is a major barrier to maximizing the weight loss profile of obesity medications, and therefore, identifying mechanisms that improve tolerability could result in added therapeutic benefit. The development of Peptide YY (PYY)-based approaches to treat obesity are no exception, as PYY receptor agonism is often accompanied by nausea and vomiting. Here, we sought to determine whether glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) receptor agonism reduces PYY-induced nausea-like behavior in mice. We found that central and peripheral administration of a GIPR agonist (GIPRA) reduced conditioned taste avoidance (CTA) without affecting hypophagia mediated by a PYY analog. The receptors for GIP and PYY (<em>Gipr</em> and <em>Npy2r</em>) were found to be expressed by the same neurons in the area postrema (AP), a brainstem nucleus involved in detecting aversive stimuli. Peripheral administration of a GIPRA induced neuronal activation (cFos) in the AP. Further, whole-brain cFos analyses indicated that PYY-induced CTA was associated with augmented neuronal activity in the parabrachial nucleus (PBN), a brainstem nucleus that relays aversive/emetic signals to brain regions that control feeding behavior. Importantly, GIPR agonism reduced PYY-mediated neuronal activity in the PBN, providing a potential mechanistic explanation for how GIPRA treatment reduces PYY-induced nausea-like behavior. Together, our study provides a novel mechanism by which GIP-based therapeutics may benefit the tolerability of weight loss agents. </p>

Objective: To develop a framework for infection control in the spectrum of dental procedures during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Methodology: The study was conducted from Oct to Dec 2021 after approval for ethical review board of Foundation university college of dentistry Ref no ( ). Patients undergoing various dental procedures were enrolled after written and verbal informed consent. Risk Stratification of each procedure was done applying novel risk assessment scoring system, according to the level of risk contact with saliva was given score 1, contact with blood scored as 2, production of aerosol (low level) through triple syringe was given score 3, high aerosol production by ultrasonic piezoelectric instruments was scored as 4. If the complete duration of the dental procedure was >60 min score assigned was 0.75, for procedures with 30 to 60 mins duration score specified was 0.50, if the duration of the procedure was less than 30 min score for that procedure was 0.25. For each patient total score of all these parameters was accumulated to grade risk of SARS -CoV-2 transmission as low (score <4), medium (score 4 to 6), or high (score >6) depending upon the accumulative score of each procedure.
Results: Nine hundred and fifteen patients with a gender distribution of 163 (17.9%) males and 748 (82.1%) females with an age range < 18 – 45 years undergoing the dental procedure were enrolled. Out of 915, 436 (47.6%) procedures were found to be low risk, 38 (4.1%) moderate risk, and 437 (47.7%) high risk. Out of 174 maxillofacial procedures, only 18 (10.3%) were of high risk, similarly out of 113 orthodontics procedures, only 1 (0.9%) was of high risk and for 147 prosthodontic procedures, there were 55 (37.4%) high-risk procedures. On the other hand, for operative dentistry procedures (n=181), majority of 128 (70.7%) posed a high risk, among pediatrics procedures (n=92) there were 62 (67.4%) high-risk procedures and for periodontics (n=204) about 173 (84.8%) were of high-risk nature. Therefore, the majority of the high-risk procedures belonged to operative, pediatrics, and periodontics specialty as compared to other specialties (p<0.001).
Conclusion: The majority of the high-risk dental procedures belonged to operative, pediatrics, and periodontics specialty as compared to other specialties.
Different dietary ratios of arginine, methionine and lysine for turkeys: effects on whole-body composition and nutrient utilization efficiency in the early growth stage

Abstract
The growth rate, tissue development and health status of turkeys are affected by the dietary supply of essential amino acids (AAs) such as lysine (Lys), methionine (Met) and arginine (Arg). According to various guidelines, the diets fed to turkeys in the first 4 weeks of the rearing period should contain 1.60–1.76% Lys, 1.60–1.80% Arg and 0.55–0.70% Met. This study investigated the effects of different ratios of Arg and Met in starter diets with 1.60% of Lys content, i.e. a low level, on the whole-body composition of turkeys and nutrient retention efficiency. The experiment lasted for 28 days and it had a two-factorial randomized design with three levels of Arg (90%, 100% and 110%) and two levels of Met (30% or 45%), relative to the content of dietary Lys, with six groups of eight replicates per group and 18 turkeys per replicate. Different dietary Arg and Met levels, relative to Lys, did not affect AA concentrations in the body protein or the proximate whole-body composition (crude protein, crude fat, gross energy and ash) of turkeys. The higher Met level positively influenced energy, protein and Arg utilization and their retention efficiency as well as the growth performance of turkeys. An increase in the dietary level of Arg to 100% and 110% of Lys content had no influence on the growth performance of turkeys and it reduced the retention efficiency of Arg. Differences in the body weight gain, feed intake and Lys utilization of turkeys fed diets with different Arg levels resulted also from the strong interaction between Met and Arg levels. At the lower level of Met in the diet, a decrease in Arg relative to Lys from 100% to 90% resulted in decreased (P = 0.003) feed intake (from 50.34 g to 46.72 g) and growth rate (from 31.84 g to 29.79 g), which was not noted for the higher Met content (45% relative to Lys). At the lowest level of Arg in the diet (90% of Lys content), a decrease in Met relative to Lys from 45% to 30% caused a decrease in Lys retention efficiency (from 61.51% to 56.29%). The results of this study suggest that the higher content of Met in the diet (45% to Lys) and the Arg level corresponding to 90% of Lys content contribute to optimizing nutrient retention efficiency in turkeys during the first 28 days of their life.

Published: May 2022

Compounds from ZnO doped with AgO in different ratio (0,3,5,7, and 9)wt.% were prepared.Thin films from the prepared compounds were deposited on a glass substrate using the pulsed laser deposition method. The XRD pattern confirmed the presence of a single-phase hexagonal wurtzite ZnO structure, without the presence of a secondary phase. AFM measurements showed an increase in both average grain size and average surface roughness with increasing concentration content of (AgO).The crystallite size of ZnO of the main peak corresponding to the preferred plane of crystal growth named (100) increases from 17.8 to 22.5nm by increasing of AgO doping ratio from 0 to 9%. The absorbance and transmittance in the wavelength range (350-1100 nm) were used to determine the optical properties. The results showed that the optical energy gap for direct allowed transition (r =0.5 )are (3.21, 3.2,3.15, 3.15, 2.95 ) Ev, respectively. The optical constants were also measured as a function of wavelength. This optical measurements showed the prepared thin film have many applications for solar cell fabrication and sensing devices.

Authors: Anggoro Dimas Aryo , Nurfadilah Inayah 
Published: May 2022

The Indonesian language is used as a means of communication, including written communication. Unfortunately, many mistakes are found in Indonesian language writing, such as the writing of active verbs with the prefix mem- followed by the letter P. This problem can be addressed with the spell-checking method. Spell checking is a process in computer programs to check the spelling of each word in electronic text or documents in the correct order. To better the active verb this study used the Jaro-Winkler Distance algorithm. Meanwhile, for system development, the Iterative Waterfall method was used. The system output is active verbs of mem- + P which is standardized according to the Great Dictionary of the Indonesian Language of the Language Center (KBBI) and the morphological rules of the Indonesian Language Spelling System. The accuracy value of the algorithm was 80% for common mistakes, 95% for specific mistakes, and 80% for correctable mistakes with word suggestions.
Enseñanzas de los Talleres De Creatividad de Antonio Caro
Authors: Solórzano Augusto 
Published: May 2022

Este artículo explora el aporte educativo de los Talleres de creatividad visual que Antonio Caro (1950-2021) impartió en el país y en el exterior durante más de treinta años. A través de un novedoso programa pedagógico que recoge ideal de John Dewey de integrar de manera natural el arte y la vida, el artista logra democratizar el arte y potenciar las capacidades creativas consolidando nuevas posibilidades para la experiencia estética-educativa, la inclusión y el desarrollo de competencias de tipo social a través del diálogo y la participación activa. El objetivo es mostrar que esta práctica artística contemporánea incardina asuntos éticos y estéticos que permiten acercar la teoría educativa a la experiencia del arte en función de sus efectos y potencial pragmático. La metodología fue de tipo cualitativo y se circunscribe a una revisión documental exploratoria de fuentes impresas, electrónicas y audiovisuales. Los resultados permiten concluir que el contenido pedagógico de los talleres, al rehacerse y revisarse permanentemente, construye su propio método de investigación, abre rutas alternas a los modelos educativos del arte institucional, potencia la comunicabilidad y despliega tácticas que dan sentido y dirección a la vida permitiendo que el arte y la educación rehabiliten la dimensión de la experiencia que la razón moderna no pudo abarcar.
Cappelen, H. (2012). Philosophy without Intuitions. Oxford University Press
Authors: Franco Ramírez Joel Alejandro 
Published: May 2022

Una de las controversias en los debates metafilosóficos contemporáneos gira en torno al presunto uso de intuiciones como evidencia en la filosofía analítica. El problema es que, si los filósofos realmente usan intuiciones, no queda claro qué se entiende por éstas, cómo pueden tener un papel evidencial, o si son siquiera fiables. En su libro Philosophy Without Intuitions, Herman Cappelen se propone abordar esta cuestión que concierne a los fundamentos mismos de la filosofía analítica, dando una respuesta negativa a la pregunta de si los filósofos dependen de intuiciones. Su estrategia consiste en articular dos argumentos que, de acuerdo con él, suelen ser mencionados en apoyo de la existencia del uso de intuiciones en filosofía, para después mostrar que ninguno cumple su cometido. Por lo tanto, sería falso que se utilizan intuiciones como evidencia en filosofía. La obra se divide en dos partes: en la primera (caps. 2-5) desarrolla un argumento lingüístico a favor de la existencia del uso de intuiciones en filosofía, así como su crítica a éste; mientras que en la segunda (caps. 6-11) elabora un argumento práctico, junto con sus respectivos defectos. Y si bien Cappelen cree que en última instancia la diferencia entre ambos argumentos es convencional, sirve para sus propósitos expositivos.

Gendered Violence, Religion and UK-Based Anti-Abortion Activism
Authors: Page Sarah-Jane , Lowe Pam 
Published: May 2022

AbstractThe United Nations view access to abortion as a fundamental human right. Yet increasingly in theUK, religiously-motivated activists undertake public displays opposing abortion, often outside abortion clinics, and precipitated through international campaigns like40 Days for Life(Lowe and Page forthcoming). Activists see their actions as an essential intervention; some explicitly frame this as a form of help. But examining this from the perspective of how bodies are gendered and regulated in the public sphere raises questions regarding whether this is a form of harassment, and therefore gendered violence. This article is based on aUKethnography. Using Kelly’s (1988) continuum of violence thesis, we examine whether this activism constitutes gendered violence, examining two different activities—prayer and graphic images. Despite these activities being distinct and contrasting, we argue that both should be understood as part of a continuum of violence, causing harm to those seeking abortion services.
The Influence of Religion, Spirituality, and Purpose in Life for Resilience among Trans and Gender Diverse Individuals

Abstract
Religion, spirituality, and purpose in life have benefits for mental and physical health, yet religious environments can be stigmatizing for trans and gender diverse (TGD) individuals. This study aimed to examine the influences of religion, spirituality and purpose in life for resilience among TGD individuals. This study included photo-elicited interviews (35 longitudinal interviews, 21 individuals) and surveys (n=108). Religious affiliation was significantly associated with increased levels of social support but was not significantly associated with other variables. Strategies found in themes from the qualitative analysis foster resilience strategies, including spirituality to overcome challenges, purpose in life, and social support. Yet strategies in the themes also utilize resilience strategies, including discrimination, strategies in response to discrimination, social support, and identity negotiation. As participants did make sense of religion and spirituality in how they conceived of their resilience, findings may inform therapeutic interventions and pastoral approaches.
Equidistance and unit codes

Published: May 2022

In coding theory, single codes, as the implementation of non-traditional coding methods, are focused in particular on such a practical application as the transmission of symbols (bits) in communication channels. Today, the analysis and study of unit codes is a priority and actuality in terms of evaluating their corrective properties.
This paper analyzes the properties of three unit codes, such as unit position (marking), unit pair and unit normal codes. The comparative characteristic of these codes taking into account their correcting properties is given. It is taken into account that the corrective properties of the code are determined by the code distance, which is the minimum distance between its code points. The formulas for determining the average probability of error non-detection for the received correction codes are given. Research and proof of corrective properties of unit codes were carried out from the point of view of their equidistance. Such codes are characterized by the fact that the code distance in the equidistant code must be an even number. The analysis of the characteristics of unit codes presented in this work showed that one of the optimal among equidistant unit codes can be considered a unit position (marking) code. The formula for calculating the lower estimate of the average probability of error non-detection for any probability of error-free transmission of the symbol, which coincides with the value of the average probability of error non-detection for the McDonald's equidistant code. This also confirmed the optimality of a considered unit position (marking) code.
With this in mind, the application area of the unit position code, as noise immunity, extends due to the possibility of encoding the states of correcting machines and addressing data in computer storage devices.
