Equality between citizens. language as criterion of discrimination

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Equality is a trivalent constitutional principle. It can be regarded both as a general principle of rights, as a fundamental right and as an additional guarantee for the exercise of fundamental rights, freedoms and duties. Respect for the principle of equality for all persons irrespective of race, nationality, ethnic origin, language, religion, sex, opinion, political affiliation, wealth or social origin excludes discrimination and is a catalyst for human dignity. Non-discrimination is a basic rule in human rights law and a resonance of the principle of equality. All relevant international human rights treaties and declarations contain references to discrimination. In national domestic legislation, especially at constitutional level, equality between citizens and discrimination also feature prominently. Language discrimination is based on one of the criteria for discrimination laid down in the constitutional norm: the criterion “language”.
Analyzing the sustainability of intensified side‐stream extractive distillation for binary azeotropic separation: a comparative study

Field: Chemical Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Abstract BACKGROUND The sustainability performance of extractive distillation (ED) that collectively considers energy efficiency, process safety, economic profitability, process control, and environmental emission has not been widely reported. Motivated by this lack of research, we analyzed and compared the sustainability performance of the intensified side‐stream ED (SSED) with that of the conventional extractive distillation (CED) for the separation of binary azeotropic mixtures. Two different design approaches were analyzed; the first approach involves designing the intensified SSED by preserving the original CED column configuration, while the second approach involves optimizing the original column configuration to become a new intensified SSED configuration. RESULTS We found that preserving the original configuration usually provides energy‐savings, but this advantage is not guaranteed unless the process is optimized. Generally, the reduction in energy consumption improves economic and environmental performance. However, the optimized design has a higher risk index because it is usually larger in size, for the sake of lowering the energy consumption. In addition, the optimized design usually has a higher condition number, which signifies that a more complex control structure is required. CONCLUSION Altogether, designing the intensified process via process optimization does not always guarantee significant improvement in all sustainability indicators. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry (SCI).
Continuous Crystallization Kinetics of Cefradine in a Mixed Suspension Mixed Product Removal System

Field: Chemical Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Understanding the continuous crystallization process is of paramount interest in the industry. In this work, the continuous crystallization kinetics of cefradine in a three-stage mixed suspension mixed product removal (MSMPR) system was investigated at a steady state. In addition, the nucleation rate and growth rate of cefradine at different temperatures and stirring rates were determined on the basis of the population balance equation and further regressed on the basis of the different parameters. The results show that the crystal nucleation rate and growth rate are the fastest in the third stage and in the first stage, respectively. According to the regressed nucleation and growth rate models, the relative concentration had a smaller effect on the growth rate than that on the nucleation rate with a larger fitted parameter of relative concentration. The nucleation rate was significantly affected by the stirring rate with the largest fitted parameter of the stirring rate.

P1‐304: Regional atrophy patterns associated with risk of future progression to Alzheimer's disease in amnestic mild cognitive impairment using a new time‐to‐event voxel based method

Field: Neuroscience (Life Sciences)

While differences in patterns of atrophy between MCIs who progress to AD within a fixed time period versus non-progressors have been characterized with voxel based morphometry (VBM), additional insight may be gained by identifying regions that are associated with increased risk of future progression to AD. The goal of this study was to use a new time-to-event voxel based analytic method to identify anatomic regions on MRI where atrophy is associated with significantly increased hazard (risk) of future progression to AD in subjects with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI). This approach differs from traditional VBM by incorporating statistical methods that account for varying lengths of follow-up. Subjects with a diagnosis of aMCI at baseline and a concomitant MRI were followed prospectively until a diagnosis of AD with censoring at last clinical follow-up, death, or a diagnosis of non-AD neurodegenerative disease. Cox proportional hazards models adjusted for age, sex, and education were used to estimate the hazard of progression from aMCI to AD based on voxel level gray matter density (GMD) estimates. Voxel-wise hazard ratios (HRs) are reported comparing subjects with GMD at the 25th percentile to those at the 75th percentile. A total of 95 aMCI subjects (45 women, median age 77 yrs.) were followed for a median of 2 years. Fig. 1 shows a map of voxels with HRs greater than 2 (p<0.05), representing regions where increased atrophy more than doubled risk of progression. The color scale in the Figure indicates the range of significant HRs, with blue corresponding to HR of 2 and red to HR of 6. Not surprisingly, the greatest risk of progression to AD is associated with atrophy of the medial and basal temporal lobes. Other areas of atrophy associated with increased risk of progression are the lateral temporal and parietal neocortex. We have applied time-to-event statistical methods to SPM5 derived GMD estimates in a novel way to identify regions of atrophy that significantly increases aMCI patients' risk of progression to dementia. In the context of a progressive disease like AD, time-to-event VBM seems more appropriate than traditional two-sample methods.
Diabetes mellitus and phytotherapy in Turkey.

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

This study reports a literature review aimed to analyse various studies related to the use of phytotherapy in diabetes mellitus in Turkey in order to provide additional information for healthcare professionals. The incidence of Diabetes Mellitus is rising and many of the diabetics frequently use herbal treatments along with modern medical treatment for glycaemic control and/or improve their well-being. Several electronic databases (such as Medline and Pubmed) were searched for 1990-2010 period (till May, 2010) and 33 related articles were analysed. Many studies--mostly animal trials- have been conducted in this field. Among the herbs most-commonly used along with modern medical therapies and also in folkloric medicine, we searched for bitter melon, cinnamon, fenugreek, olive leaf, black seed and white mulberry. Studies conducted in this field have produced conflicting results and, the necessity to conduct randomized, placebo-controlled clinical human studies to develop new drugs from herbs, as in the case of metformin, still remains important. Besides, further studies are required to address the issues of standardization and quality control of existing preparations. More importantly, healthcare professionals caring for diabetic patients need to be aware of phytotherapy to incorporate phytomedicine into their practices and should undertake more responsibility in relation to these kind of therapies that are commonly-used throughout the world.
Predictive analysis in Gestational Diabetic Mellitus (GDM) using HCNN-LSTM/DPNN (Big Data)

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

The Statistical report from International Diabetes Federation (IDF), in 2020, 463 million people are increasingly affected by diabetes across the globe and particularly 88 million people in the Southeast Asia region. Of the 88 million people, 77 million people belong to India. IDF said India occupies the second highest place of children affected with type 1 diabetes after the United States. As per the World Health Organization (WHO), overall 2% of deaths that are occurred in India will be due to diabetes. According to IGT (Impaired Glucose Tolerance), 35% of sufferers will have Type 2 diabetes, so it can be strongly concluded that India is significantly requiring a healthcare emergency. This paper discusses the seriousness and impact of diabetes (Type1, Type2, and GDM). And also important to reveal and discuss the accuracy of the proposed methodology over the other existing methodologies. It is important to the early prediction using the HCNN-LSTM Algorithm using Big Data technology. According to the IDF report, the patients' records are huge volume, to manage and store all patients' records HDFS storage is required and it is under the big data technology.
Simulation of degradation processes: Influence of degradation on molecular weight distribution: First approach. I. Random crosslinking and chain scission

Field: Chemistry (Physical Sciences)

Abstract The properties of polymers are changed by the influence of degradation processes. Easy to notice are changes in color caused by the formation of chemical groups absorbing the light spectrum in the visible region. The changes in color can, therefore, be determined and measured by sufficiently sensitive photometers, especially because the changes in the visible region are preceded very often by changes in the UV‐region. Mechanical properties, as well as rheological properties (and consequently the processa‐bility of polymers), depend on the relaxation spectrum which is sensitive to changes in the molecular weight distribution of the polymers. The molecular weight distribution is changed by the influence of degradation as a consequence of crosslinking, chain scission, and depolymerization. The questions concerning the influence of degradation processes on the molecular weight distribution of the polymers have hitherto been given less attention than the question regarding the color changes, although these, too, are of considerable importance. The determination of the gel content and the limit viscosity numbers which are usually employed as a measure for successive degradation processes is less suitable than the determination of the molecular weight distribution, as it gives less information especially in the initial stage of degradation and its interpretation is often difficult. The aim of this paper is to create a simple model suitable for a computer which would make possible the simulation of the influence of degradation processes on the molecular weight distribution. The results thus obtained should serve as a basic material for a detailed study of these questions.
Correlation between SALL4 stemness marker and bone morphogenetic protein signaling genes in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Abstract SALL4, as a stemness marker, plays a key role in the maintenance of pluripotency and self‐renewal of cancer stem cells. To elucidate probable linkage between SALL4 stemness marker and bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) cell signaling pathway, we aimed to analyze the expression levels of the related genes in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) patients. Tumoral and corresponding margin normal tissues from 50 treatment‐naive ESCC patients were subjected for expression analysis using relative comparative real‐time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. There were significant correlations between SALL4 mRNA and BMP signaling target genes expression including SIZN1 , VENTX , and DIDO1 ( P < 0.01). Tight associations of gene expression were observed in primary stages of tumor progression (stages I/II), and the invaded tumors to the adventitia (T3/T4). Furthermore, significant correlations between the expression of BMP signaling target genes were observed ( P < 0.01). SALL4 may play role in tumorigenesis and tumor cell invasiveness of ESCC through correlation with BMP signaling genes.

Сопоставили нейрофизиологические характеристики состояния сенсомоторной иннервации мышц нижних конечностей у больных с различным уровнем локализации повреждения в грудном и поясничном отделах позвоночника. Проанализированы данные глобальной (тесты: «расслабление», «максимальное произвольное напряжение») и стимуляционной (М-ответы, Н-рефлексы) ЭМГ у 48 больных (36 – мужского и 12 женского пола) в возрасте от 11 до 55 лет, распределенных по уровню повреждения позвоночника на три группы: 1 гр. (DIV-DVIII) 4; 2 гр. (DIX-DXII) 10; 3 гр. (LI-LV) 32. Выявлены особенности функциональных сдвигов в спинном мозге у больных с последствиями позвоночно-спинномозговой травмы различной локализации, отраженные в послеоперационной динамике взаимодополняющих ЭМГ-характеристик посттравматического сенсомоторного дефицита. Наиболее отчетливые ЭМГ-признаки функциональной недостаточности в до- и послеоперационном периодах отмечены у больных с повреждением позвоночника на уровне DIX–DXII, что топологически соответствует локализации мотонейронных ядер, т.е. расположению сегментарных моторных центров контроля произвольной и рефлекторной активности мышц нижних конечностей.
The adjuvant effect of a mouthwash containing green tea and hyaluronic acid on the peri-implant parameters: a pilot short-term clinical evaluation

Field: Dentistry (Health Sciences)

The aim of this pilot study was to evaluate the adjuvant effect of a mouthwash containing green tea and hyaluronic acid on the peri-implant clinical parameters in full arch implant-supported fixed prosthesis users. Eleven patients with a total of 75 implants that supported 6 lower total fixed prostheses and 7 upper total fixed prostheses agreed to participate in this short-term pilot study. Patients were submitted to clinical analysis of the implants at baseline and 10 days after initial product use. The probing depth, level of the peri-implant mucosa, clinical attachment level, peri-implant mucosa inflammation index and visible plaque index in each of the 6 sites were evaluated. To perform these analyses all, the prostheses were unscrewed during both intervention points. In general, the newly-developed mouthwash was shown to be safe to use with no signs of negative side effects. Additionally, biofilm and inflammation index were both reduced, with changes in the peri-implant mucosa marginal level due to inflammation reduction. It can be concluded that the mouthwash containing green tea and hyaluronic acid successfully reduced biofilm accumulation and inflammation around dental implants in full arch implant-supported fixed prosthesis safely in a short-term evaluation period.
Vitamin B12-Related Biomarkers

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Background: Adult vitamin B12 (B12) deficiency may present itself with nonspecific mainly neurological symptoms, and thus plasma biomarkers are often judged to be of major importance in the further diagnostic process. Four biomarkers are of special relevance: total B12, holotranscobalamin (the part of B12 bound to the active transport protein, transcobalamin, also named holoTC or active B12) and the 2 so-called metabolic markers that accumulate if B12 is lacking, methylmalonic acid (MMA) and homocysteine. Objective: This article briefly reviews the inherent limitation of biomarkers, discusses its use in establishing the diagnosis and cause of B12 deficiency, and when following or discontinuing treatment with B12. Methods: The review is based on published papers, but also on knowledge gained from working within the area. Conclusion: It is concluded that a combination of a B12 and a metabolic marker, for example, total B12 and MMA, may prove most useful in daily practice. An unexpectedly high level of total B12 is most often of no clinical importance, though sometimes related to the presence of underlying cancer. Measurement of total B12 is of limited value in patients on treatment with pharmacological doses of B12 but may be helpful if B12 treatment is discontinued.

The low expression of E-cad, high abnormal expression of N-cad and β-cat played an important role in the occurrence and development of laryngeal carcinoma. It can provide a reference for evaluating clinical prognosis. The clinical pathological stage and β-cat can be used as independent predictors for the prognosis of laryngeal carcinoma.
Had there been an axe handy: transatlantic modernism, Virginia Woolf and Jean Toomer

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

This article looks at transatlantic modernist intertextuality and identifies African American influences and voices in the writing of Virginia Woolf. While comparisons between Woolf and the Harlem Renaissance writer Jean Toomer have occasionally been made in transatlantic studies of the matrix of modernism, little attention has been paid to the possibility of more direct or precise connections and intertexts. This essay offers a reading of a precise intertext between Woolf and Toomer and suggests further citations by Woolf of African American writing.
Arthur Symons and Decadent Lyric Phenomenology

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

The first case study to implement this way of reading takes Decadent poetry as its subject matter, with a particular focus on Arthur Symons (although with significant analysis also of Ernest Dowson, and reference to other Decadents including Lionel Johnson). It argues for a phenomenology of poetic form, made possible by the strict, regular, forms favoured by the aesthetes; and for a new mode of lyric encounter emerging from this. Comparing this with idealist and impressionist modes, it argues that this poetry ‘made for the eye’ was often made for an distinctly embodied eye—and that the Victorian association between the book and the body offered new possibilities for lyric when combined with a Decadent erotics.
Measurement of the bone mineral density of the os calcis as an indication of vertebral fracture in women with lumbar osteoarthritis

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Abstract In women with lumbar osteoarthritis, measurement of the os calcis bone mineral density (BMD) using dualenergy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) as an indication of vertebral fracture was evaluated. The in vivo precision of the method was 1.28%. Age- and sex-matched control curves were evaluated using a control of 193 females. The correlation between spine BMD and os calcis BMD was significant (r = 0.65, p ≪ 0.001). For the osteoporotic women without osteoarthritis (n = 34), there was no significant difference in the spine and the os calcis Z-scores (–1.99SD and – 1.83SD respectively). Whereas for osteoporotic women with osteoarthritis (n = 30) the spine Z-score was – 0.49SD the os calcis Z-score was – 1.92SD. The difference was significant (p &lt; 0.001). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves demonstrate the superiority of the os calcis as a measurement site over the lumbar spine, in correlation with existing crush fractures in the presence of osteoarthritis. It is concluded that when lumbar osteoarthritis occurs measurement of the os calcis BMD using DEXA is clinically useful for the estimation of bone mass.
New 2010 British Society of Gastroenterology colitis surveillance guidelines: costs and surveillance intervals

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

We report a case of a 38-year-old man with a background of a neglected neurogenic bladder, who presented with a recent onset history of stress urinary incontinence. He was diagnosed as having large prostatic stones along with a low-compliance, small capacity bladder and bilateral hydronephrosis with deranged renal functions. As self-catheterisation was not possible due to obstructing prostatic stones, holmium-YAG laser lithotripsy of prostatic stones was performed as initial procedure that resulted in complete resolution of stress incontinence as well. Successful gastrocystoplasty was performed as a second step to deal with the underlying condition of neurogenic poorly compliant bladder. The present case describes the successful endoscopic management of prostatic calculi using holmium-laser lithotripsy and draws attention to other important issues that need to be addressed in certain special situations like neurogenic bladder.
Long-term clinical follow-up after operation for lung carcinoma

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

From 1951 to July 1969, 964 lung resections for primary lung carcinoma have personally been carried out. All except eight patients, whose follow-up has been continued by colleagues elsewhere, have been examined at intervals in the outpatient department and chest radiographs have been taken. No patient has been lost from follow-up. The results of this follow-up are presented. The quality of the patient's life after operation, the cause of death, the results, and the relationship of survival to extent of operation are discussed. Details of 151 patients surviving more than five years, and of 49 surviving more than 10 years, are given. Information on the aspects under consideration is believed to be as complete as possible. The cause of death is doubtful in only two patients.
