“Smart” greenhouses and pluridisciplinary spaces: supporting adolescents’ engagement and self-efficacy in computation across disciplines
Authors: Jackson David W. , Cheng Yihong , Meng Qi , Xu Yang 
Published: February 2022

AbstractEducational designers are working to embed computation in required classes outside of computer science (CS) courses, to promote equitable access for all students. While many studies embed computation in one discipline, few include projects that substantively involve many disciplines. We conducted a mixed methods case study with a sequential design to explore adolescents’ self-efficacy and engagement in computational practices, along with practices in several disciplines of science and engineering. In partnership with two eighth-grade environmental science teachers in a culturally and linguistically diverse urban-ring city of the Northeast US, students (N = 199) worked in teams to design, assemble, and code for “smart”, or automated, miniature greenhouses. We report on successes in engagement, along with tensions in self-efficacy, namely relating to generality, social factors, and emotive sources. Specifically, we elaborate on tensions related to (1) engagement via fun and camaraderie vs. disaffection per anxiety and stress; (2) practices as sequential vs. simultaneous; (3) prior experience with coding vs. present application; and (4) disciplinary pre-conceptions vs. expansion. We conclude with implications for educational design of pluridisciplinary spaces, especially for those including computation, and which seek to leverage interest and engagement to develop self-efficacy. Also, we discuss how our study extends self-efficacy theory through its finer-grained analyses with more diverse participants. Ultimately, our work builds on and extends current educational designs for embedding computational practices in required, non-CS classes, a vital concern for adolescents’ present and future civic participation, in personal, social, and professional ways.
Plasmacytoma of the larynx: case report and literature review of laryngeal extra-medullary plasmacytoma
Authors: Cherrabi Kaoutar , Benmansour Najib , El Alami Mohamed Noureddine 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
Background
Monoclonal plasma cell neoplasms are rare; laryngeal solitary plasmacytoma is very rare.

Case presentation
This is the case of a 46-year-old man who has been treated for chronic laryngitis for 8 months; he presented first with dysphonia, dyspnea, and dysphagia. The initial tests showed normal erythrocyte counts, elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rates, elevated CRP, and a thrombocytopenia at 40.000. The rest of the test panel was without incidence. Whole body MRI was performed which showed no additional lesion besides the laryngeal location. Bone marrow biopsy was normal. The patient underwent pan-endoscopy under general anesthesia. The biopsy result showed plasmacytoma. The patient had radiotherapy, after which the patient needed tracheotomy with a good outcome. This work presents a very rare case of laryngeal solitary plasmacytoma, with a literature review of differential diagnosis, as well as current trends in diagnosis, and therapy.

Conclusion
The essential take-home message is that however, this is a rare entity, it should be considered and treated as a malignant disease that could progress to diseases with worse diagnoses. Timely diagnosis and treatment can allow good outcomes and prevention of progression.
Cervical and ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potential in children with sensorineural hearing loss with and without cochlear implant: a systematic review
Authors: Apeksha Kumari , Devananda Darshan 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
Background
Children with sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) form a major chunk of the population with hearing difficulty. Since the auditory system is close to the vestibular system and shares the common fluid, the abnormality in the auditory system might impair the functioning of the vestibular system.

Main body of the abstract
The present systematic review aimed at studying the application of cervical and ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potential responses (cVEMP and oVEMP) during assessment and rehabilitation of children with SNHL with and without a cochlear implant. A systematic search was done across databases on cVEMP and oVEMP findings in children with SNHL. Out of 92 articles retrieved, 21 articles were found to be appropriate as per our inclusion criteria. Significant vestibular abnormality was seen in children with SNHL as shown on cVEMP and oVEMP test reports. The cVEMP and oVEMP abnormalities seen were more in children with SNHL using a cochlear implant. Pre- and post-implantation studies showed a significant reduction in measures of cVEMP and oVEMP after implantation.

Short conclusions
Studies in the last decade reported abnormal cVEMP and oVEMP response in children with SNHL with and without cochlear implantation. cVEMP and oVEMP response is also associated with poor motor development in children with SNHL. Thus, emphasis should be given to assessing vestibular functioning in children with SNHL to rehabilitate them early in life.

AbstractAccumulating evidence indicates that hepatitis B virus X protein (HBx) plays a key role in HBV-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) aggressiveness; however, the underlying mechanisms are not entirely clear. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), which participate in the regulation of diverse biological processes, may be critical for the function of HBx. Our research indicated that HBx induced changes in the expression of numerous lncRNAs and implicated the novel lncRNA RP11-241J12.3 in HBx-mediated HCC aggressiveness. Although RP11-241J12.3 expression was downregulated in transient HBx-expressing HCC cells (similar to the early stage of HBV infection), its oncogenic properties remained. The results showed that RP11-241J12.3 not only accelerated DNA synthesis and upregulated the expression of pyruvate carboxylase (PC) and MSH3, which is a key protein in pyruvate metabolism and DNA mismatch repair (MMR), but also promoted tumor growth in vitro and in vivo, thus promoting HCC aggressiveness. More importantly, we revealed that RP11-241J12.3 may interact with PC and identified its location in the cytoplasm close to the nucleus using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). We also observed RP11-241J12.3 expression was upregulated in HCC tissues compared with the paracarcinomatous tissues. Furthermore, RP11-241J12.3 expression levels showed a close relationship with clinical stage and tumor size and that low RP11-241J12.3 expression was significantly correlated with longer HCC patient survival. These results further our understanding of the lncRNAs regulated by HBx in HCC, and provide evidence that dysregulation of RP11-241J12.3 contributes to HCC aggressiveness.

PURPOSE: Many older patients with advanced lung cancer have functional limitations and require skilled nursing home care. Function, assessed using activities of daily living (ADL) scores, may help prognostication. We investigated the relationship between ADL impairment and overall survival among older patients with advanced non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) receiving care in nursing homes. METHODS: Using the SEER-Medicare database linked with Minimum Data Set assessments, we identified patients age 65 years and older with NSCLC who received care in nursing homes from 2011 to 2015. We used Cox regression and Kaplan-Meier survival curves to examine the relationship between ADL scores and overall survival among all patients; among patients who received systemic cancer chemotherapy or immunotherapy within 3 months of NSCLC diagnosis; and among patients who did not receive any treatment. RESULTS: We included 3,174 patients (mean [standard deviation] age, 77 [7.4] years [range, 65-102 years]; 1,664 [52.4%] of female sex; 394 [12.4%] of non-Hispanic Black race/ethnicity), 415 (13.1%) of whom received systemic therapy, most commonly with carboplatin-based regimens (n = 357 [86%] patients). The median overall survival was 3.1 months for patients with ADL score < 14, 2.8 months for patients with ADL score between 14 and 17, 2.3 months for patients with ADL score between 18-19, and 1.8 months for patients with ADL score 20+ (log-rank P < .001). The ADL score was associated with increased risk of death (hazard ratio [HR], 1.20; 95% CI, 1.16 to 1.25 per standard deviation). One standard deviation increase in the ADL score was associated with lower overall survival rate among treated (HR, 1.14; 95% CI, 1.02 to 1.27) and untreated (HR, 1.20; 95% CI, 1.15 to 1.26) patients. CONCLUSION: ADL assessment stratified mortality outcomes among older nursing home adults with NSCLC, and may be a useful clinical consideration in this population.

The purpose of the article is to describe the conceptual signs of the crown borrowed concept of the XX–XXI centuries period.
Objectives of the article: 1. Determine the list of conceptual signs of the crown concept in a time period; 2. To correlate the motivating signs and conceptual signs of the period XVII–XIX of this concept with the highlighted conceptual ones of the new period.
The relevance of the work lies in understanding the role of borrowed concepts that have entered Russian linguoculture at different stages of language development.
The research material. Eleven explanatory dictionaries of the Russian language of the period of the XX–XXI centuries became the material of the research.
The main research methods include descriptive, conceptual, interpretive, component analysis of dictionary definitions.
Analysis of dictionary entries of the XX–XXI period centuries made it possible to identify 55 conceptual signs of the crown concept: ‘theotokos’, ‘crown’, ‘wreath’, ‘upper part / surface’, ‘sovereign person’, ‘power’, ‘outer part of the atmosphere of a celestial body (Sun / Earth)’, ‘outer part of a cluster of low stellar density’, ‘higher clergy’, ‘head’, ‘(newest) state / country’, ‘state’, ‘sovereign / empress: reigning persons’, ‘dignity (county, baronial, princely, noble)’, ‘precious’, ‘women’s headband’, ‘title (world champion)’, ‘sign’, ‘for merit’, ‘toothed hoop / tiara / hat’, ‘image’, ‘imperial’, ‘(state) treasury’, ‘rim (arched at the crown)’, ‘designation’, ‘of gold’, ‘of metal’, ‘of silver’, ‘royal’, ‘kingdom’, ‘edge’, ‘crown’, ‘monarch’, ‘monarchical / royal’, ‘on coats of arms / orders’, ‘award’, ‘worn on top’, ‘(visible light) halo (around the sun during an eclipse)’, ‘with precious stones’, ‘with carving’, ‘victory (in sport)’, ‘ruler’, ‘government’, ‘object’, ‘affiliation’, ‘regalia’, ‘symbol’, ‘constellation (Northern crown and Southern crown)’, ‘inflorescence in the form of a crown’, ‘dress’, ‘pattern’, ‘decoration’, ‘royal’, ‘kingdom’, ‘ceremony / wedding to the kingdom’. All motivating signs have passed into the category of conceptual ones, i.e. retained their relevance during the XX–XXI centuries. The conceptual signs of the crown symbolic concept of the XX–XXI centuries period are combined into 13 blocks: 1. Headdress (6 signs); 2. Dignity / title (12 signs); 3. Substance of manufacture (3 signs); 4. Form (4 signs); 5. State (7 signs); 6. Ornament (1 sign); 7. Value (1 sign); 8. Ruler (7 signs); 9. Award (2 signs); 10. Decoration (4 signs); 11.

Authors: Redziak Kamil 
Published: February 2022

Wprowadzenie: Otyłość w ostatnich kilku dziesięcioleci przybrała rozmiar globalnej epidemii. Pomimo prowadzenia szeregu działań zaradczych w dalszym ciągu nie udało się odwrócić, a nawet zahamować trendu jej narastania. Otyłość to choroba, która przyczynia się do obniżania jakości życia. Szczególnie niepokoi fakt, że coraz częściej występuje u młodych osób.
Cel pracy: Celem pracy było porównanie jakości życia młodych dorosłych w grupie osób z otyłością oraz w grupie osób z masą ciała w zakresie normy.
Materiał i metodyka: Badanie zostało przeprowadzone wśród 105 uczniów ze szkół średnich pochodzących z terenów wiejskich. Zastosowano metodę sondażu diagnostycznego z użyciem kwestionariusza ankiety własnej konstrukcji zawierającego pytania o dane socjo-demograficzne oraz skróconej wersji ankiety oceniającej jakość życia – The World Health Organization Quality of Life (WHOQOL).
Wyniki: Ponad połowa osób (60%) w badanej grupie miała masę ciała w zakresie normy, nadwaga wystąpiła u 11,43% badanych, otyłość u 20%, a niedowaga u 8,57% respondowanych. We wszystkich dziedzinach zawartych w kwestionariuszu WHOQoL w badanej grupie stwierdzono istotne różnice pomiędzy grupa osób z otyłością, a osobami z masa ciała w normie oraz z niedowagą i nadwagą.
Wnioski: Masa ciała istotnie różnicuje jakość życia badanych uczniów. Średnie wyniki we wszystkich domenach, tj. dziedzinie fizycznej, psychologicznej, relacji społecznych i środowiska różniły się istotnie w zależności od poziomu BMI.
FIGURAÇÃO DA CRIANÇA REFUGIADA NA LITERATURA INFANTIL E CONCEPÇÕES DE INFÂNCIA: DOIS MENINOS DE KAKUMA
Authors: Menna Lígia Regina Máximo Cavalari 
Published: February 2022

A fome, a miséria, a guerra, perseguições e violações dos direitos humanos, enfim, questões políticas e sociais de toda ordem, têm obrigado milhares de pessoas a abandonar suas casas, famílias e pátria em busca de refúgio, esperançosas de retornar um dia, ou reconstruir suas vidas em terras distantes, ou simplesmente viver. Segundo a Acnur, (Agência da ONU para Refugiados), em 2020, o número de refugiados no mundo ultrapassou 80 milhões, sendo que apenas 30% são considerados formalmente como tais, considerando que mais de 4% ainda não encontraram refúgio, além dos incontáveis mortos durante frustradas tentativas de fuga. Na história, na mitologia e nas artes em geral, antigo é o tema da migração forçada , dos refugiados, pessoas exiladas, perseguidas, vivendo na diáspora, dentre elas muitas crianças, compondo o retrato perverso e atual de uma sociedade doente e em constante ebulição. A literatura está repleta de exemplos em que crianças protagonizam tão dura realidade. Pensando na literatura infantil, nossa área de estudos, levantamos alguns questionamentos: Como são figuradas as crianças refugiadas na literatura infantil? Que concepções de infância podemos depreender de narrativas que abordam temas tão sensíveis, histórias de sofrimento, abandono e resiliência? Com o objetivo de refletir sobre tais questões, propomos a análise da obra Dois meninos de Kakuma, de Marie Ange Bordas. Destacamos que a infância é uma construção social, condicionada a questões culturais, filosóficas, econômicas e por muitas vezes religiosas, assim, a partir de uma perspectiva social e histórica, podemos dizer que não existe somente uma infância, mas várias. Como aporte teórico, utilizaremos Marisa Lajolo, Regina Zilberman, Philippe Ariès, Collin Heywood, Carlos Reis e Walter Benjamin.

Published: February 2022

INTRODUCTION The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted the delivery of routine dental services in the UK. Reduced face-to-face clinical activity has resulted in reduced availability of tertiary specialist services. The impact of the pandemic on medical trainees has been explored but there is limited literature regarding dental trainees. METHODS A blended questionnaire was designed, pre-piloted and administered as an online anonymous survey. Following pre-notification, this was administered to paediatric dentistry trainees for a three-week period. Quantitative data underwent descriptive statistics and qualitative data were subject to thematic analysis. RESULTS The response rate was 63% (n=35). Two respondents were out of programme. Outpatient clinics and treatment with local anaesthesia were the most disrupted aspects of training. Academic training was less disrupted than clinical training. Thematic analysis found three key themes: personality and personal circumstance, colleagues and workplace, and changes to clinical and academic activity. Trainees perceptions ranged from optimistic to pessimistic, with many trainees identifying opportunities they had gained while others perceived none. CONCLUSIONS This survey shows variation in training disruption and opportunity during the COVID-19 pandemic. Our findings support anecdotal evidence and results emerging from trainees in medicine. Further surveys should be administered as the pandemic progresses and these should include other dental specialties.

MT-teql

Published: February 2022

Natural Language Interface to Database (NLIDB) translates human utterances into SQL queries and enables database interactions for non-expert users. Recently, neural network models have become a major approach to implementing NLIDB. However, neural NLIDB faces challenges due to variations in natural language and database schema design. For instance, one user intent or database conceptual model can be expressed in
various forms.
However, existing benchmarks, using hold-out datasets, cannot provide thorough understanding of how good neural NLIDBs really are in real-world situations and its robustness against such variations. A key difficulty is to annotate SQL queries for inputs under real-world variations, requiring considerable manual effort and expert knowledge.

To systematically assess the robustness of neural NLIDBs without extensive manual effort, we propose MT-Teql, a unified framework to benchmark NLIDBs against real-world language and schema variations. Inspired by recent advances in DBMS metamorphic testing, MT-Teql implements semantics-preserving transformations on utterances and database schemas to generate their variants. NLIDBs can thus be examined for robustness utilizing utterances/schemas and their variants without requiring manual intervention.
We benchmarked nine neural NLIDBs using 62,430 inputs and identified 15,433 defects. We analyzed potential root causes of defects and conducted a user study to show how MT-Teql can assist developers to systematically assess NLIDBs. We further show that the transformed (error-triggering) inputs can be used to augment popular NLIDBs and eliminate 46.5%(±5.0%) errors made by them without compromising their accuracy on standard benchmarks. We summarize lessons from this study that can provide insights to select and design NLIDBs that fit particular usage scenarios.
