Involvement in Sexaholics Anonymous and life satisfaction: The mediating role of meaning in life and hope
Authors: Wnuk Marcin , Charzyńska Edyta 
Published: May 2022

Abstract

Background and aims
Some people are preoccupied with their sexual urges and fantasies and lose control over their sexual behaviors, which can cause adverse consequences for their health and well-being. One of the options available for individuals seeking treatment for compulsive sexual behavior disorder (CSBD) is a self-help group based on the twelve-step program. The main purpose of the current study was to examine the direct and indirect (through meaning in life and hope) relationships between involvement in Sexaholics Anonymous (SA) and life satisfaction.

Methods
The sample consisted of 80 Polish members of SA (72 men and 8 women) with a mean age of 38.96 years (SD = 10.56). The Sex Addiction Screening Test-Revised, the Meaning of Life Questionnaire, the Herth Hope Index, the Satisfaction with Life Scale, and items adapted from the Alcoholics Anonymous Involvement Scale were used to measure the study variables.

Results
Path analysis showed a direct positive relationship between SA involvement and life satisfaction. Moreover, the relationship between these variables was mediated by the presence of meaning in life and hope. Simultaneously, more severe symptoms of CSBD were related to lower levels of the presence of meaning in life and higher levels of the search for meaning in life, which, in turn, predicted lower levels of life satisfaction.

Discussion and conclusions
The results suggest that finding meaning in life and restoring hope partly underlie the relationship between SA involvement and life satisfaction.
The effects of neoliberal social policy on the institutional selectivity of the Hungarian K-12 educational system from a socio-legal perspective
Authors: Rónay Zoltán , Matyasovszky-Németh Márton 
Published: May 2022

AbstractThere is a general consensus in mainstream education sciences and sociology that the Hungarian educational system has long been highly selective. 1 Although the majority of Hungarian society has high hopes that the educational system promotes social mobility, empirical studies show that the problem of selectivity has not been handled effectively, regardless of the multitude of changes in education policy in past decades. 2 It has become a very fashionable theme in the past few years to denounce the detrimental effects of neoliberalism on the educational system for this failing. 3 We, however, argue that neoliberalism has only played a secondary role in the controversial evolution of educational policy, while its chief causes may rather be found in ambiguous education legislation.As a result of the aforementioned controversy, the impact of neoliberal economic policy on the institutional selectivity of education needs to be clarified. Accordingly, this paper aims to highlight the main patterns of how the neoliberal idea has affected education, as well as its side effects on social mobility.
A narrative review of the effects of blood flow restriction on vascular structure and function

Published: May 2022

Abstract
Blood flow restriction is growing in popularity as a tool for increasing muscular size and strength. Currently, guidelines exist for using blood flow restriction alone and in combination with endurance and resistance exercise. However, only about 1.3% of practitioners familiar with blood flow restriction applications have utilized it for vascular changes, suggesting many of the guidelines are based on skeletal muscle outcomes. Thus, this narrative review is intended to explore the literature available in which blood flow restriction, or a similar application, assess the changes in vascular structure or function. Based on the literature, there is a knowledge gap in how applying blood flow restriction with relative pressures may alter the vasculature when applied alone, with endurance exercise, and with resistance exercise. In many instances, the application of blood flow restriction was not in accordance with the current guidelines, making it difficult to draw definitive conclusions as to how the vascular system would be affected. Additionally, several studies report no change in vascular structure or function, but few studies look at variables for both outcomes. By examining outcomes for both structure and function, investigators would be able to generate recommendations for the use of blood flow restriction to improve vascular structure and/or function in the future.
Spatial Complexity Characteristics of Fault Slip from Japanese Earthquakes Based on Self-Similar Models: Comparison with Worldwide Empirical Models
Authors: Suzuki Fumino , Kato Kenichi , Watanabe Tetsushi 
Published: May 2022

ABSTRACTEarthquake source parameters, such as slip on the planes of finite faults, have spatially variable distributions, and seismic ground motions significantly fluctuate in accordance with the characteristics of complexity. The complexity of fault parameters should thus be evaluated properly. Although self-similar models consider the complexity of the fault parameters, they have not been exhaustively used to validate earthquakes that occur in Japan. In this study, for multiple earthquakes in Japan, the slip complexities of finite faults are evaluated using the self-similar model. Slip spectra are fitted using the von Karman autocorrelation function; furthermore, the Hurst exponents and correlation lengths are compared with previous studies dealing with earthquakes around the world. Differences between source types are also examined. The Hurst exponents H are unaffected by magnitude, and the difference between the source types is small. The median value of H is 0.77, which is nearly the same as the global average value indicated by Mai and Beroza (2002). The correlation lengths along-strike ax have positive correlations with magnitude; furthermore, no differences were observed between source types. The ax characteristics are nearly the same as the global average value; however, the correlation lengths down-dip ay correlates positively with magnitude. Nevertheless, there are differences for each source type. The ay characteristics have saturating trends for each source type, which is attributed to the thickness of the seismogenic layer. The moment magnitude Mw saturates at 6.3 and 8.4 for crustal and interplate earthquakes, respectively. This Mw is nearly consistent with the boundary between the first and second stages of three-stage scaling.

Published: May 2022

Background: Rural households in Ethiopia are dependent on biomass for their energy needs and this exacerbates deforestation. Therefore, building small-scale biogas is one of the abating means of these challenges. The objective of this study was to assess the practices and opportunities of small-scale biogas technology in selected Districts’ Hadiya zone, southern Ethiopia. Methods: To achieve this objective, fifty-six informants were selected from the seven districts of Hadiya Zone, semi-structured questionnaires and field observations were used as the instruments to collect the data. Result: This survey revealed that small-scale biogas technology in the study area is recent and it needs certain requirements for its construction and due to the stopped feeding, most of the biogas plants were non-functional. Despite this, the presence of many cattle and optimum climate are among the essential opportunities to expand biogas distribution in the study area. Therefore, farmers and the concerned stakeholders should use the available opportunity to maximize the distribution of biogas technology in the study area.
Critical Research and Qualitative Methodologies: Theoretical Foundations and Contribution to Nursing Research
Authors: Paradis-Gagné Etienne , Pariseau-Legault Pierre 
Published: May 2022

Background: Methodological approaches that draw on critical perspectives (critical ethnography, critical phenomenology, and critical grounded theory) share common concepts, including social justice, reflexivity, positionality, pragmatism and social transformation. These approaches differ from conventional phenomenology, ethnography and grounded theory despite sharing common methodological grounds.Purpose: In this article, we will outline the major contributions of critical theory, as a research paradigm, to the development and evolution of qualitative methodologies. In particular, we will discuss their application to nursing research. The historical and conceptual underpinnings of these critical methodologies will first be described to highlight their paradigmatic characteristics and implications for nursing.Implications for Practice: Although not yet widely employed in nursing research, critical qualitative methodologies are particularly well suited to the discipline as they shed light on issues of power, social control, and marginalization among the vulnerable populations with whom nurses practise on a daily basis. The use of critical approaches can expose the epistemic injustice and social and health inequality that continue to prevail in our society.

Published: May 2022

Abstract
The paper focuses on presumable sources of coarse carbonate material transported into the Visean Northern Kharaulakh basin. The sand to pebble components of the Krestyakh conglomerate unit originated by medium and distant transport by debris flows (turbidity currents) along submarine canyons from the place of their initial littoral deposition to relatively deep accommodation basins. The carbonate material was most likely derived from Ordovician, Silurian, and Devonian sediments, which are currently represented by their analogs in Kotelny Island. The sediments of the Northern Kharaulakh basin store a record of two geological events: (1) middle Visean collision of Siberia with the Laurussian supercontinent and rifting of some terranes off the Siberian сraton, and (2) late Visean collision of the Kara terrane with the northern margin of Siberia.

Published: May 2022

AbstractTectonic and geodynamic models of the formation of the Amerasian Basin are discussed. The Arctic margins of the Chukchi region and Northern Alaska have much in common in their Late Jurassic–Early Cretaceous tectonic evolution: (1) Both have a Neoproterozoic basement and a complexly deformed sedimentary cover, with the stage of Elsmere deformations recorded in their tectonic history; (2) the South Anyui and Angayucham ocean basins have a common geologic history from the beginning of formation in the late Paleozoic to the closure at the end of the Early Cretaceous, which allows us to consider them branches of the single Proto-Arctic Ocean, the northern margin of which was passive and the southern margin was active; (3) the dipping of the oceanic and, then, continental lithosphere took place in subduction zones southerly; (4) the collision of the passive and active margins of both basins occurred at the end of the Early Cretaceous and ended in Hauterivian–Barremian time; (5) the collision resulted in thrust–fold structures of northern vergence in the Chukchi fold belt and in the orogen of the Brooks Ridge. A subduction-convective geodynamic model of the formation of the Amerasian Basin is proposed, which is based on seismic-tomography data on the existence of a circulation of matter in the upper mantle beneath the Arctic and East Asia in a horizontally elongated convective cell with a length of several thousand kilometers. This circulation involves the subducted Pacific lithosphere, the material of which moves along the bottom of the upper mantle from the subduction zone toward the continent, forming the lower branch of the cell, and the closing upper branch of the cell forms a reverse flow of matter beneath the lithosphere toward the subduction zone, which is the driving force determining the surface kinematics of crustal blocks and the deformation of the lithosphere. The viscous dragging of the Amerasian lithosphere by the horizontal flow of the upper mantle matter toward the Pacific leads to the separation of the system of blocks of Alaska and the Chukchi region from the Canadian Arctic margin. The resulting scattered deformations can cause a different-scale thinning of the continental crust with the formation of a region of Central Arctic elevation and troughs or with a breakup of the continental crust with subsequent rifting and spreading in the Canadian Basin.

Published: May 2022

AbstractThe special issue is focused on the problems of tectonics, paleogeography, geodynamic evolution, and mineral resources of the continental margins of the Russian Arctic. This topic is relevant, since the knowledge of the geologic structure of the Arctic Ocean and its formation and evolution can solve many global problems of geology and important regional problems, including the formation of oil- and gas-bearing sedimentary basins as well as prospecting for, and development of, diamonds and deposits of nonferrous, noble, rare-earth, and other minerals. In previous issues of Russian Geology and Geophysics, considerable attention was paid to the geology and oil and gas potential of the Arctic. In this special issue, emphasis is placed on the tectonics, stratigraphy, paleogeography, and petrology of the Arctic continental margins of Russia, the development of tectonic and geodynamic models for key structures, and diamond content and metallogeny of Arctic zones of the Siberian Platform, Chukotka, and the Kola Peninsula.

Abstract
Retinal ganglion cells(RGCs) apoptosis is a vital manifestation of retinal ischemia/reperfusion(I/R) injury, yet the underlying mechanisms are not well understood. The contribution of long noncoding RNAs(lncRNAs) to this cellular process is currently being explored. Based on a lncRNA chip assay, we aimed to investigate the role of lncRNA uc007nnj.1 in the pathological process of ischemia-induced RGCs apoptosis. Hank’s balanced salt solution containing 10 µM antimycin A and 2 µM calcium ionophore for 2 hours to construct an ischemic model in RGCs, and elevation of intraocular pressure to 120 mm Hg for 1 hour was used to construct a mouse model of retinal I/R injury. In this study, lncRNA uc007nnj.1 was highly upregulated in response to I/R injury in RGCs and mouse retinas. In addition, lncRNA uc007nnj.1 knockdown reduced retinal neuronal cell apoptosis in vitro and in vivo and significantly improved retinal function. Mechanistically, the results demonstrated that lncRNA uc007nnj.1 acts as ceRNA competitively binding miR-155-5p, thereby enhancing the expression levels of Tle4, thus aggravating ischemia-related apoptosis in RGCs. Finally, our study identifies the lncRNA uc007nnj.1/miR-155-5p/Tle4 axis as a potential target for the prevention of I/R-induced retinal neuronal death.

Published: May 2022

Abstract
The Kirchhoff equation with thermal effect and memory term is studied. The existence and uniqueness of the solution of the equation are obtained by using the Faedo-Galerkin method. Secondly, the existence of global attractor is obtained by proving the existence of bounded absorption set and the asymptotic smoothness of semigroup. For the first time, this paper comprehensively considers the long-term dynamic behavior of the Kirchhoff model under the simultaneous action of variable coefficients, memory and thermal effects, and promotes the relevant conclusions of the Kirchhoff model. The conclusion of this paper provides a theoretical basis for the subsequent research.
