Abstract
Introduction
Jejunoileal atresia (JIA) among neonates is still a condition which has huge morbidity and mortality, particularly in the developing world. We share a case series of JIA in context of their presentation, management, and outcome.

Materials and methods
This study was conducted at Children’s Hospital and Institute of Child Health, Lahore, over 1 year. We included all patients presenting with JIA, and their demographic details, presentation, investigations, treatment strategies, and the outcome were noted at a pre-designed proforma. All data were analyzed using SPSS version 26.

Results
A total of 63 neonates with JIA were included. Most of them (79.4%) presented after 48 h of life, and the mean age at presentation was 5.68 ± 4.75 days. There were 37 male patients (58.7%), and 51 (81%) were full-term. The most common presenting complaint was not being able to pass meconium (88.9%). Type III atresia was the most common subtype (41.3%). Most of them underwent resection without tapering. The mean hospital stay was 12.81 ± 6.53, and it was significantly longer among those who underwent re-exploration (P = 0.034). Twenty-three patients (36.5%) expired within 6 months of follow-up. The only significant factor for mortality was the presence of short bowel syndrome (P = 0.030). All other demographic and management factors did not alter the mortality rate.

Conclusion
Management of surgical neonates is a difficult job in developing countries with limited resources. There is a high mortality rate of neonates following JIA surgeries, and surgeons in these countries must fight on many fronts to improve the outcome.
Apparent “Rapid Loss” After Short-Interval Bone Density Testing in Menopausal Women Is Usually a Measurement Artifact

Published: February 2022

Abstract

Context
Medication may be considered when bone mineral density (BMD) loss is reported as “excessive.”

Objective
We hypothesized that the rate of BMD change between 2 serial tests demonstrates higher random variability at shorter vs longer intervals, misclassifying some women as “rapid losers.”

Methods
This retrospective observational cohort study in Manitoba, Canada included women aged &gt; 55 years without osteoporosis medications or glucocorticoids. Using paired baseline (1998-2016) and repeat (2001-2018) BMD measurements, we estimated the distribution of annualized change (first to second BMD) at spine, hip, and femoral neck stratified by testing interval (2-2.9, 3-3.9,...9-9.9, ≥ 10.0 years). “Rapid annual bone loss” was defined as exceeding the 95th percentile for decreases from all measurement pairs. Odds ratios (OR) for rapid loss were estimated using regression models adjusted for age and clinical covariates.

Results
From 7126 paired BMD measurements, mean annualized change was constant yet standard deviations in BMD change were &gt; 2-fold greater with intervals of 2 to 2.9 years vs ≥ 10 years(P &lt; 0.001). “Rapid annual loss” was seen in ~10% of short-interval tests vs &lt; 1% of long-interval tests. ORs for “rapid loss” progressively declined with increasing testing interval (spine 15.3 [4.8-48.9], total hip 9.3 [4.4-19.5], femoral neck 18.7 [6.8-51.3] for a 2- to 2.9-year testing interval; referent ≥ 10 years).

Conclusion
There is a wider apparent range in annualized BMD loss with short-interval testing which greatly attenuates over longer intervals. BMD reports of “rapid loss” across shorter testing intervals likely reflect an artifact of BMD measurement error and should not be used as an indication for antifracture medication initiation.
Chronic Estrus Disrupts Uterine Gland Development and Homeostasis

Published: February 2022

AbstractFemale mice homozygous for an engineered Gnrhr E90K mutation have reduced gonadotropin-releasing hormone signaling, leading to infertility. Their ovaries have numerous antral follicles but no corpora lutea, indicating a block to ovulation. These mutants have high levels of circulating estradiol and low progesterone, indicating a state of persistent estrus. This mouse model provided a unique opportunity to examine the lack of cyclic levels of ovarian hormones on uterine gland biology. Although uterine gland development appeared similar to controls during prepubertal development, it was compromised during adolescence in the mutants. By age 20 weeks, uterine gland development was comparable to controls, but pathologies, including cribriform glandular structures, were observed. Induction of ovulations by periodic human chorionic gonadotropin treatment did not rescue postpubertal uterine gland development. Interestingly, progesterone receptor knockout mice, which lack progesterone signaling, also have defects in postpubertal uterine gland development. However, progesterone treatment did not rescue postpubertal uterine gland development. These studies indicate that chronically elevated levels of estradiol with low progesterone and therefore an absence of cyclic ovarian hormone secretion disrupts postpubertal uterine gland development and homeostasis.
The Role of Mutation Induction Technology in Forage Breeding
Authors: Fanindi Achmad , Harmini Harmini 
Published: February 2022

<p class="awteks">Mutation induction in breeding is one of many ways to improve the character of a plant, including forage crops. Formation of new variety of forage plants, especially grass is still very rare in Indonesia due to several obstacles, including the flower structure, ploid and reproductive systems of forage plants. Mutation induction in breeding as a method of producing new varieties of forage plants (grass and legume) can be utilized by eliminating the constraints in forage plants, because it can create new variety without being restricted by floral structure and reproductive system of plant. The paper aims to describe the mutation breeding and its methods on forage plants and its prospect to obtain new varieties of superior forage plants to meet the needs of forage in Indonesia. A number of factors, including mutation technique, mutagenic type, seed and other factors, are determining the success of mutational breeding. The creation of new types of forage plants by mutation-induction is aiming to increase productivity, improve forage performances and resist abiotic and biotic stress. Mutation breeding is expected to produce new varieties of superior forage plants in a relatively shorter time, because forage plants can be propagated in a vegetative or generative manner. It is epxected that the assembly of new varieties of forage plants can meet the needs of forage in quantity and quality.</p>
Política do reconhecimento: do reconhecimento à identidade em Taylor
Authors: Domingues Silva da Costa Caroline 
Published: February 2022

Resumo: Este artigo discute os conceitos de identidade e reconhecimento fundamentados na concepção de Charles Taylor a partir de sua obra Multiculturalismo (1998). Identidade possui uma relação direta com reconhecimento, uma vez que, para a identidade ser formada, parte dela é pela existência ou inexistência do reconhecimento. Taylor propõe uma política da diferença, visto que tal política possibilita o reconhecimento das diferenças existentes em cada indivíduo, o que proporciona uma possível sociedade multicultural não-hegemônica. Com isso, é possível observar neste artigo a elaboração do pensamento do autor acerca dos conceitos de identidade e reconhecimento. Também, é possível notar como estes conceitos viabilizam o reconhecimento de grupos minoritários que estão inseridos no corpo social. Para além disso, é analisado como que esses conceitos se tornam fundamentais para conseguir compreender a intersubjetividade de cada indivíduo e de como eles são indissociáveis ao se pensar em uma luta por reconhecimento daqueles que tiveram o reconhecimento de suas identidades negadas.

Politics of Recognition: from recognition to identity in Taylor
Abstract: This paper discusses the concepts of identity and recognition based on Charles Taylor’s conception from his book Multiculturalism (1998). Identity has a direct relationship with recognition, since, for identity to be formed, part of it is due to the existence or non-existence of recognition. Taylor proposes a politics of difference, since such politics make it possible the recognition of the differences that exist in each individual, which provides a possible non-hegemonic multicultural society. With this, it is possible to observe in this article the elaboration of the author’s thought regarding the concepts of identity and recognition. Also, it is possible to notice how these concepts enable the recognition of minority groups that are inserted in the social body. Furthermore, it is analyzed how these concepts become essential in order to understand the intersubjectivity of each individual and how they are inseparable when we think about the fight for recognition of those who have their identities been denied to.

A Nova Scientia Tentatur, de Vico, e a Filologia
Authors: Leite Neto Eduardo 
Published: February 2022

Resumo: O objetivo deste trabalho se situa na exposição dos critérios abordados pelo filósofo Giambattista Vico (1668–1744) em atribuir à filologia e filosofia um caráter científico quanto às suas metodologias. O pensador napolitano encarava essas duas grandes ciências como valoradas a desvelar o aparato epistemológico da natureza humana. Dessa forma, a partir dos escritos de 1720–1722 (De uno e o De constantia iurisprudentis), envoltos às tratativas jurídicas no encalço de uma fonte jurisfilosófica da humanidade, tece sua argumentação ao tratar do equânime direito das gentes e sua necessidade ao bem-estar das repúblicas. Entretanto, ao identificar as várias etimologias e as diversas passagens históricas que demarcaram a caminhada humana, concentra, a partir de então, sua busca ao entorno da natureza humana, porém, apoiando-se à constância da razão, isto é, da filosofia, e à autoridade marcada pela filologia em se debruçar na cronologia e nos costumes humanos. Portanto, é mediante esses pressupostos que o filósofo busca na filologia, uma nova Scientia.

La Nova Scientia Tentatur di Vico e la Filologia
Riassunto: L'obiettivo da questo lavoro è situato nella esposizione degli criteri abbordato per il filosofo Giambattista Vico (1668-1744) in attribuire alla filosofia e filologia un carattere scientifico nelle sue metodologie. Il pensatore napoletano fissava queste due grandi scienze come apprezzate a svelare il comune struttura epistemologica alla natura umana. Così, a partire delle scritte del 1720-1722 (De uno e il De constantia iurisprudentis), involti alle trattative giuridiche nel incalzo di una fonte giurisfilosofica della umanità, scrive suo argomento al trattare del'equanime diritto delle genti, e la sua necessità al benestare delle repubbliche. Tuttavia, al identificare le varie etimologie e le diverse passaggi storici che delimitano il camminare umano, concentra d'allora in poi, la sua ricerca all'intorno della natura umana, nonostante basandosi alla costanza della ragione cioè della filosofia, alla autorità tracciata per la filologia in chinarsi nella cronologia e costumi umani. È per questo che mediante queste presupposti il filosofo cerca nella filologia, una nuova Scientia.

Krausist Criticism of the European Imperial Nationalism Doctrine
Authors: Manzanero Delia 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
This study presents some of the contributions to the process of the constructing Europe since the illustrated ideas of the German philosopher Krause that were promoted and represented by eminent Spanish Krausist legal experts, such as Francisco Giner de los Ríos. His conception of Europe and European civilisation contains theories that, despite being surprising and openly opposed at the time, have today become part of the global heritage of modern day legal philosophy and our social aspirations. We firstly study how the development of the Krausist legal philosophy contributed to the political development of Spain and how this ius-philosophical thinking had a modernising influence on Spanish legal philosophy and science. Secondly, we delve deeper into the basic principles of Krausist legal-sociological theory that have had a major influence on Europeanisation, reviewing its most ardent criticism of the European imperial nationalism doctrine.
Humility Expression and its Effects on Moral Suasion: An Empirical Study of Ocasio-Cortez’s Communication
Authors: D’Errico Francesca , Bull Peter , Lamponi Ernestina , Leone Giovanna 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
Humble leadership can be described as a positive psychological feature that allows leaders to admit their limitations, be open to new ideas, and give a voice to others while also recognizing their merits. The present study (n = 268 participants) explored the persuasive effects of a female politician communicating a humble stance by considering the role emotional displays at play (joy, calmness, sadness, and anger) when discussing a moral issue (hosting immigrants). The results revealed that the politician elicited positive emotions and evaluations of her competence and benevolence, especially when exhibiting a sad facial display, by contributing to the intention to accept the moral gist of her persuasive message. Overall, these ‘gendered’ effects are discussed in relation to the ‘political authenticity’, which can be perceived as high especially when the humble message is connected with several social reasons, as is the case with gender or social status.
Thermal diffusivities of uniaxially cold-pressed Fe2Mo powders
Authors: Hayashi Miyuki , Rajter Richard , Morales Ricardo , Seetharaman Seshadri 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
Fe2Mo powders have been produced from Fe2MoO4 powders by gas – solid reduction using pure H2 gas at 1023 and 1173 K. The thermal diffusivity of the cold-pressed Fe2Mo powders having a relative density between 0.52 and 0.72 has been measured at room temperature both in air and in vacuum using the laser-flash method. A correlation was observed between the thermal diffusivity and the relative density for the powders reduced at different temperatures, regardless of the difference in microstructure of the powders. In order to explain the porosity dependence of the effective thermal conductivity, a new simple method developed based on the Ohm’s law models was used. The model successfully simulates the experimental data, and the thermal conductivity of bulk Fe2Mo was estimated as 10.8 W/mK.
Method for in situ texture investigation of recrystallization of Cu and Ti by high-energy synchrotron X-ray diffraction
Authors: Puig-Molina Anna , Wenk Hans-Rudolf , Berberich Florian , Graafsma Heinz 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
High-energy synchrotron radiation has been used to study in situ annealing of cold-rolled Cu and Ti. The measurements were performed using a high-vacuum furnace in transmission geometry and an area detector. The diffraction images were subsequently processed to extract the orientation distribution. The recrystallization process could be followed with a time resolution of the order of 10 s, and good pole figures could be obtained from the very limited amount of data in single diffraction images. The pole figures compare favorably with pole figures of the same material measured ex situ with a conventional pole figure goniometer. For Cu, a rapid and complete change from a typical rolling texture to a cube texture was observed after annealing for 20 min at 650 °C. For Ti, changes were more subtle with a tendency for c-axes to diminish near the normal direction, as well as for a-axes to become aligned with the rolling direction. The method makes it feasible to study the kinetics of recrystallization with quantitative texture analysis.
A simple iterative algorithm based on weighted least-squares for errors-in-variables models: Examples of coordinate transformations
Authors: Kang Zhijun 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
Although weighted total least-squares (WTLS) adjustment within the errors-in-variables (EIV) model is a rigorous method developed for parameter estimation, its exact solution is complicated since the matrix operations are extremely time-consuming in the whole repeated iteration process, especially when dealing with large data sets. This paper rewrites the EIV model to a similar Gauss–Markov model by taking the random error of the design matrix and observations into account, and reformulates it as an iterative weighted least-squares (IWLS) method without complicated theoretical derivation. IWLS approximates the “exact solution” of the general WTLS and provides a good balance between computational efficiency and estimation accuracy. Because weighted LS (WLS) method has a natural advantage in solving the EIV model, we also investigate whether WLS can directly replace IWLS and WTLS to implement the EIV model when the parameters in the EIV model are small. The results of numerical experiments confirmed that IWLS can obtain almost the same solution as the general WTLS solution of Jazaeri [21] and WLS can achieve the same accuracy as the general WTLS when the parameters are small.

Published: February 2022

Abstract
The inverse problem of reconstruction second-order Ito stochastic differential equations by the given properties of motion is solved when control is included in the drift coefficient. By using the separation method, the form of control parameters is determined that provides sufficient conditions for the existence of a given integral manifold for the nonlinear, linear, and scalar cases.
