Comments. The figures of Z. parascrutatus here provided are intending to give a more detailed aspect of the male genital characters and its taxonomic affinity to the closely related Z. scrutatus (O.-P. Cambridge, 1872). The two species share a long terminal apophysis which reaches the anterior part of the tegulum (in Z. parascrutatus having more rounded rims and fitting the embolus inside a membranous fold) and an extended embolar base, sclerotized at most of its length (in Z. scrutatus the tip of the embolar base is more pronounced and overrides the embolus tip) (see also Chatzaki et al. 2003, p. 71, figs 72–74). The finding of both sexes syntopically in Rodos island confirms their correct matching, only tentatively paired in the initial description by Levy (1998).
Distribution. Israel, Rodos.

description: The first well-known Thai novel on Kathoey’s lives, Thang-Sai-Thee-Sam (The Third Pathway) was serialized in Sakul Thai magazine between 1980 and 1981 and later published as a book in 1982. It is written by Kiratree Chanar, a Thai transsexual female novelist who flew to America in 1975 to become the first Thai Kathoey to undergo sexual reassignment surgery with Dr. Stanley Biber. The novel reflects Thai romance genre conventions except that the main character is Kathoey. Kaew (In Thai, means glass and it can imply to fragility, purity and femininity), the Kathoey protagonist, is feminine, beautiful, and passes as a woman. However, she came from a lower class/caste of the society background, growing up an orphan and working as a bus ticket taker. Until she met Jun, another Kathoey character who is non-passing, funny and, completely different from Kaew. Jun suggests Kaew work in a beauty salon while helping Kaew in becoming a woman, as she dreams of becoming one. After that, Kaew meets three men. First is Thiraphron, who is an artist student, friend and Kaew’s forever first love. Then, Navin who helps Kaew by giving her a job as a receptionist in his restaurant and supports her financially in pursuing her dream. Last is Pongphol who came from an elite family and fell in love with Kaew. However, at the end, Keaw leaves every man behind and finds her true love is for all of humanity, as she chooses to become a volunteer teacher in a rural province of Thailand. Thang-Sai-thee-Sam is both a fictional romance as well as a semi-autobiographical novel. It was inspired by the author’s own feeling and sex-change experience. The narrative served to broaden understanding of Kathoey individuals by people in society at the time in addition to providing a history of sexual reassignment surgery based on the writer’s experience. – description by Chanathip Suwannanon.

Zelotes minous Chatzaki, 2003: 70, figs 77-79 (male only) (female misidentified, see below Z. shaked)
Zelotes daidalus Chatzaki, 2003: 77, figs 102-103 (female only) (male synonymized with Z. shaked)
Comments. Zelotes minous and Z. daidalus were both described by Chatzaki et al. (2003). A closer study of the descriptions of these species, as well the examination of the material from this study and of comparative material (i.e. the type of Z. shaked Levy, 1998, see below) confirmed an earlier observation that the sexes of these species are mismatched. Z. minous clearly belongs to the segrex group with both sexes conforming to its distinctive characters. These include the bulging embolar base with a dorsal median hole and a sclerotized retrolateral rim, the stout embolus originating from the dorsal part of the tegulum and curving retrolaterally, and the rather simple epigynal plate with divided anterior margins and concave posterior margin. Further taxonomic notes and material will be included in another paper dedicated solely to this group.
Distribution. Crete, Karpathos (see Chatzaki et al. (2003)).

description: When studying the erosion of democratic institutions – such as elections – researchers often focus on elite co-optation or regime dynamics. Yet changes in political selection may also have long-term effects on the types of individuals seeking a political career, defining the dominant features of decision-makers down the road. I design a lab experiment to explore the effects of changes in political selection that accompanied authoritarian backsliding in Russia. Using a series of experiments, I show that creating an unfair playing field in elections and replacing elections with appointments for the local offices leads to self-selection of the risk-averse individuals into political careers. This happens because selection features like low costs of running (for regime candidates) and the absence of public evaluation for the appointees attract individuals who are more risk averse. This study demonstrates a causal mechanism connecting elements of authoritarian backsliding with citizen political ambition and contributes to our understanding of the long-term effects these changes may have on political participation, elite quality, and regime functioning.

That procedure is subsequently applied to the three most important equations in computational fluid dynamics: the shallow water equations and the incompressible and compressible Euler equations. Both strong and weak imposition of the nonlinear boundary conditions are discussed. Based on the continuous analysis, we show that the new nonlinear boundary procedure lead to energy and entropy stable discrete approximations if the scheme is formulated on summation-by-parts form in combination with a weak implementation of the boundary conditions.

description: Recent work challenging the “rubber stamp” view of authoritarian legislatures demonstrate that they are important arenas for policymaking. Yet their amending function remains understudied. To what extent is draft legislation modified in authoritarian parliaments? Why are some bills amended more than others? This article addresses these questions in the Chinese case, using a dataset covering 167 bills adopted by the National People's Congress or its Standing Committee from 2008 to 2022. I assess the degree of bill change by comparing bill content before and after parliamentary treatment with a text reuse method. Results show a moderately high level of amendment activity, with noticeable variations across bills. I argue that the amending role of the Chinese legislature serves a crucial mechanism for integrating and coordinating bureaucratic interests. I find that bills are modified to a greater extent if more ministerial and provincial stakeholders are involved within the legislative arena. This article provides systemic evidence supporting the power-sharing theory: legislative institutions compensate for the executive-level deficiencies and help manage intra-elite relations in policymaking. It does not confirm the influence of public opinion, casting doubt on the bottom-up account of bill change.

description: This study explores demand-side stories of democratic backsliding among citizens. We argue that individual job insecurity is associated with higher levels of support for strong leaders who are not committed to being subject to legislative checks and balances. Furthermore, we contend that this relationship is mitigated by higher asset levels and household income. In our analysis of Korea, we utilize data from the 2018 World Values Survey and the 2021 Korean General Social Survey. These results provide robust evidence for this hypothesis. Specifically, we find that assets as private alternatives to the welfare state moderate the effect of job insecurity on public support for undemocratic leaders. The findings from the Korean case have implications that can be generalized: enhancing job security and expanding public welfare provisions could bolster citizens’ democratic attitudes and behaviours.

description: What is the relationship between the type of electoral system and the degree of party fragmentation in electoral autocracies? According to Duverger’s hypothesis, proportional representation (PR) is positively associated with party fragmentation. This study investigates whether this hypothesis holds true in non-democratic political systems that hold elections. I propose that, unlike in democracies, PR is negatively correlated with the level of party fragmentation in electoral autocracies. To test this hypothesis, I utilize panel data encompassing 37 non-democratic nations that held elections from 1975 to 2010. The results demonstrate that PR is inversely linked to both the number and size of political parties. The effective number of parties (ENP) is employed as a measure of party fragmentation, estimating the weighted size and quantity of political parties.

description: Like much other cognition, social cognition of great apes, or more specifically, chimpanzees (*Pan troglodytes*) embodies markers of both rich cognitive character and (somewhat) systematic limitations. This is opportune for a psychological theory that aims to outline the character of the chimpanzee's mind both in its opportunities and characteristic limitations. The theoretical space of theory of mind -- the ability to represent other animals' minds -- has been populated with accounts that delimit nonhuman and precocious human abilities from older humans. I deploy this heuristic in empirical (Chapters 2-4) and theoretical (Chapter 5) investigations of systematic representational limitations in chimpanzees' representational abilities. More specifically, in Chapter 2, I investigated their abilities to represent misleading appearances of objects and failed to fully replicate their reported success in tracking apparent size transformations of food items. In Chapter 3, I developed a communicative interaction task that leveraged chimpanzees' reactions to different violations of their food requests. Across two experiments, the chimpanzees failed to show a sensitivity to violations of communicative intentions that cannot be explained in instrumental reference. In Chapter 4, I adapted a different communicative task that leveraged pragmatic factors to tease out chimpanzees' tendencies to disambiguate their manual pointing gestural acts. I failed to find evidence of active disambiguation for the recipient's benefit. Finally, in Chapter 5, I developed a comprehensive and tractable system of cognitive constraints that might explain performance limitations of nonhuman primates found in the literature, as well as in the present project.

description: Cardiac arrest has become one of the most common cause of death faced by individuals in today's scenario. Cardiopulmonary arrests or cardiac arrests can occur unexpectedly and increase the mortality rates.  Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) is a technique developed in an effort to save the life of patients experiencing a cardiac arrest. However, the modern CPR, in spite of being introduced 40 years ago, has not been able to improve the mortality rate.  Dataset and Methods: The Study involved the analysis of publicly available information was conducted at ASIR Central Hospital in Saudi Arabia in order to collect the data of cases regarding in-hospital heart arrests in the ICU to answer the hypothesis question. In this study, the effective use of ADE has also been explored, which can be an important technique in saving the lives of patients suffering from a cardiac arrest. Some solutions can be suggested afterwards, based on the study to improve the survival rate. The study will help in exploring the important factors, which will help in improving the survival rate of patients and improving the quality of the life of patients.  Conclusion: The survival outcome indicated that patients were significantly more likely to die (55.3%) than survive (44.7%) and The vast majority of patients were treated with adrenaline (96.1%) at the time of cardiac arrest, Out of those individuals who received three doses of adrenaline, a majority survived (42.5% died). Out of those who received four doses of adrenaline and were under 61 years of age

description: Existing research emphasizes popular support for democracy as a key ingredient of democratic regime consolidation. Both formal and informal institutions are commonly seen as the key actors that generate the requisite attitudinal shift, socializing ordinary citizens to adopt democratic values. It is thus puzzling that existing studies of attitudes towards democracy in the developing world have neglected to consider the impact of widely prevalent traditional institutions. Not only do these institutions vary considerably in their own democraticness, they also play a prominent role in the daily lives of many citizens. Filling this lacuna in extant knowledge, this study links a continent-wide dataset of the institutional features of contemporary traditional institutions in Africa with over fifty thousand survey respondents. The results indicate that the degree of democraticness exhibited by traditional institutions is a robust if weak predictor of ordinary Africans’ support for democracy.

description: Abstract      Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the commonest dementia, which has no recognized cure. It causes deterioration as it advances, and ultimately results in death. AD was primarily defined by German psychiatric specialist and neuropathologist, Alois Alzheimer. Frequently, AD Alzheimerâ€™s disease is diagnosed in persons above the age of 65 years, even though the less common early-onset of the disease can happen. It is anticipated that more than 3 million individuals aged 85 and more will have Alzheimer's. 33% of Americans over age 85 are burdened with the disease while 5.3 million Americans are living with Alzheimer's disease. Unless a cure is found, close to 16 million Americans will have the disease by 2050. Alzheimerâ€™s is one of the most expensive diseases. The impact of the disease in the U.S. is the main objective of this study. To study this impact, the length of stay, mortality, and cost will be studied in terms of different patient characteristics and hospital contexts.    Method: This studyâ€™s main objective was to find the influence of patient characteristics and hospital contexts on three outcomes, namely; length of stay, mortality, and costs. To achieve this objective, The Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS) was analyzed after using a filtering method to get a net sample size of 698,170 entries. The sample was obtained for statistical analysis for the six-year period covering 2007-2012. Descriptive and inferential statistic analysis were conducted in order to answer the research questions. Descriptive analysis includes frequencies, mean, and median. Inferential analysis includes multiple and logistic regression and qui-square models were utilized to test the significance of the relationships between independent and dependent variables of the study.    Results: Some of the important results found in this study were: 1. The patient characteristics including the age and gender are a highly risk factor of the incidence of Alzheimerâ€™s disease while the race is not a significant risk factor. 2. Alzheimerâ€™s patients who were admitted to the hospital with psychosis on average stayed 2.20 days longer than those without psychosis (p < .001). 3. Alzheimerâ€™s patients who were admitted to the hospital with normal pressure hydrocephalus on average were charged $4569.03 more than those without with normal pressure hydrocephalus (p < .001). 4. Alzheimerâ€™s patients on average were billed $11,895.48 more per procedure performed (p
Comparison of artificial neural network and logistic regression models for prediction of diabetes type II with complications

description: Type II diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a growing health concern in the United States, affecting almost 30 million individuals, and currently ranking as the 7th leading cause of mortality. In addition, T2DM is associated with multi-systemic complications that contribute to both early mortality and decreased quality of life. Individuals with T2DM can be diagnosed by blood glucose tests, and previous studies have demonstrated increased risk factors for T2DM development, including obesity, particular ethnicities, personal history of polycystic ovary disease, or a family history of T2DM.   The present study aimed to find the connection between T2DM complications including ketoacidosis, hyperosmolarity, renal manifestations, ophthalmic manifestations, neurological manifestations, and peripheral circulatory diseases with the most widespread risk factors, including gender, race, family history of diabetes, obesity, smoking, alcohol-related disorders, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, asthma, Vitamin D deficiency, and age. The strongest association was found between increasing age and peripheral circulatory disorders, with those over 65 years showing the highest correlation (OR=22.081). Strong connections were also found between Asian/Pacific Islanders and age >65 with renal complications, as well as between alcohol abuse and hyperglyceridemia with ketoacidosis (OR=3.303 and 2.992 respectively).   This study also tested two predictive models, Logistic Regression and Neural Network (ANN), in modeling T2DM with complications. Classification methods tests showed that three complications â€“ renal manifestations, neurological manifestations, and ketoacidosis â€“ were better predicted by these models than the other complications, and that both models performed very similarly in both sensitivity and specificity. This study demonstrates that specific combinations of risk factors can predict increased probabilities of specific complications in T2DM patients, and that a neural network analysis model can predict these relationships as accurately and with the same sensitivity as a standard linear regression model.

description: Lung cancer (LC) is a life threatening disease associated with significant cost and high mortality. LC is diagnosed in either early stage or more frequently in late stage, the face of lung cancer.  Objective: To make a comparison between early and late stage lung cancer (SLC) in relation to cost and mortality  Methods: The study is a random effects data analysis of a historical dataset the Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS). The study is based on the time period 2002, 2006 and 2011. The primary outcomes of interest is cost (total cost per day) and mortality (died/did not die). Two replicates samples for the years 2002, 2006 and 2011 were taken. Demographic factors that influence cost and mortality were co-varied out of the analysis. Descriptive Statistical analysis and bivariate analysis were done for cost includes ANOVA and ANCOVA. A statistical analysis for mortality includes logistic regression. Cost and mortality for early versus late (SLC) were measured in isolation and after accounting for age, gender, race, socio-economic status, number of diagnoses, length of stay, and number of procedures.Results: In the three years, 3 samples of 2173, 13,032, and 15,771 including 3 replicate samples of 2060, 13,032 and 15,772 participated in the study. All significant relationships tested at an alpha level of (P<0.05). The cost for early (SLC) was higher compared to late (SLC) and is statistically significant. The number of procedures in part accounted for the difference. Late (SLC) had higher mortality compared to early (SLC) and is statistically significant. The number of diagnoses in part accounted for the difference. The study showed early (SLC) costs 14% more than late (SLC). Late stage is more deadly, however, the gap is surprisingly small at 30% or an odds ratio of 1.3 to 1.5 after adjusting for covariates.  Conclusion: This study of HCUP data revealed that early (SLC) is more expensive than late (SLC). Additionally, the data revealed that mortality is higher in late (SLC) compared to early (SLC). Overall, these finding highlight the important role of Health Informatics in understanding the cost and mortality of early and late (SLC).

description: Purpose: To describe patterns of physical therapy management used by PTs in the USA who treat infants with congenital muscular torticollis (CMT).  Practice trends for PT referral, screening, examination, intervention, and discharge of infants with CMT are compared to current literature, including recent clinical practice guideline (CPG) recommendations. Methods: An online survey was completed by volunteers solicited through the Section on Pediatrics monthly e-newsletters and a posting on its website, and through purposeful identification of PTs in childrenâ€™s hospitals and private practices.  Results: 220 pediatric physical therapists in the USA participated in the survey with at least one participant from every state & the District of Columbia.  Significant findings include: a relatively late age of referral to PT; positive report of screening for non-muscular causes; measurement of the recommended components at initial examination and discharge, but not using recommended objective tests, with 50% visually estimating cervical ROM; use of interventions that are congruent with the recommended best evidence, but limited familiarity with supplemental interventions, and limited variability in frequency of treatment.  A small subset (0.5%-15.1%) of US PTs is using interventions which do not have evidence to support their use with CMT.  The majority of PTs (76%) report discharge with full ROM, midline head posture and symmetrical reactions; and a minority of patients with CMT (10%) return for a second episode of care after they have been discharged.  Conclusion: The data yields practice patterns that are partially consistent with current CMT literature and CPG recommendations.  Most, but not all, US PTs show appropriate screening procedures; Greater consensus is needed on the methods of objective measurement that should be used for CMT; and US PTs should be seeking out interventions with evidence to support their clinical use with CMT.
