Impacted Maxillary Central Incisors Associated with Bilateral Mesiodentes: A Case Report

Field: Dentistry (Health Sciences)

The purpose of this paper was to present the surgical exposure and orthodontic treatment of an 11-year-old boy with horizontally impacted permanent maxillary central incisors associated with bilateral mesiodentes. Panaromic and upper anterior occlusal radiographs showed horizontally impacted maxillary central incisors, vertically impacted molariform mesiodens, and rotated mesiodens located at the site of the maxillary right central incisor. The treatment plan included extraction of the erupted mesiodens, surgical extraction of the impacted mesiodens, surgical exposure of the permanent central incisors, and orthodontic traction and alignment to achieve a normal occlusion. After 14 months of treatment, the central incisors erupted into the oral cavity. The impacted maxillary central incisors were successfully positioned to their proper alignment via surgical crown exposure and orthodontic traction. Ideal overjet, overbite, and Class I molar and canine relationships were also achieved. At the completion of treatment, the exposed incisors exhibited an acceptable gingival contour and attached gingiva. After 2 years of follow-up, a stable occlusion was maintained with only minor relapse at the right central incisor.
Irish Women between Emigration and Return in Brian Friel's The Loves of Cass McGuire.

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

This article focuses on Irish playwright Brian Friel‘s play TheLoves of Cass McGuire (first produced in 1966), the theory of emigration and thesuffering of emigrants torn between the hope of living a new life and the desireto return home and filled with the fear that they can nolonger live as before. The play depicts the life of an elderly Irish womanwho left Ireland and emigrated to America when she was young. It shows howher return home ruins her expectations of what it might be like living in Irelandagain, alienating her so that she retreats to her own world of fantasy and illusionas a way of escaping bitter reality. The article engages with the psychologicalimpact of returning home, arguing that Friel was ahead of his time in covering theissue.
Spot Urine PCR as an Independent Predictor of Renal Disease in Patients with Essential Hypertension

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

A bstract Background: Hypertension is a global health issue affecting over a billion people, contributing significantly to cardiovascular diseases and chronic kidney diseases (CKD). Proteinuria, detectable using albumin-to-creatinine ratio and spot urine protein-to-creatinine ratio (PCR), serves as an early marker of kidney damage and a predictor of disease progression in hypertensive individuals. Objectives: To evaluate the prevalence and association of proteinuria in patients with essential hypertension, and to determine the effectiveness of spot urine PCR as a predictive marker for assessing the risk of cardiovascular and renal disease. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted at Meenakshi Medical College Hospital with 101 hypertensive patients aged ≥25 years. Proteinuria was assessed using spot urine PCR. Participants underwent clinical and biochemical evaluations, including cholesterol, triglycerides (TG), urea, creatinine, and estimated glomerular filtration rate, using the modification of diet in renal disease equation. Results: The majority of participants were aged 51–60 years (26.7%), with a near-equal gender distribution (50 males; 51 females). The mean age was 54.22 ± 14.45 years for females and 51.96 ± 13.83 years for males ( P = 0.42). The mean body mass index (BMI) was 26.4 ± 2.62 kg/m², with 55.44% classified as pre-obese. Hypertension was prevalent, with 41.5% having systolic blood pressure (SBP) ≥ 140 mm Hg and 33.7% having diastolic blood pressure (DBP) ≥ 90 mm Hg. Laboratory results showed mean total cholesterol of 213.1 ± 26.64 mg/dL and low-density lipoprotein of 149.2 ± 37.72 mg/dL. Proteinuria was categorized as A1 (27.7%), A2 (68.3%), and A3 (4%). Significant positive correlations were found between PCR and TG, blood urea, serum creatinine, and both SBP and DBP ( P < 0.0001). Conclusion: This study confirms a significant association between hypertension and proteinuria, with age, BMI, and blood pressure playing crucial roles in renal dysfunction. Spot urine PCR proved to be an effective and cost-efficient tool for early detection of kidney impairment in hypertensive patients. The findings highlight the importance of managing hypertension and obesity to prevent CKD progression.
Comprehensive Musicianship and Beginner Piano Method Books: A Content Analysis

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Comprehensive Musicianship (CM) is a philosophy that developed in the 1960s to encourage the study of contemporary music and student creativity. It expanded in the 1970s to describe the interdisciplinary study of music. Its goal was to encourage teachers to go beyond technical and performance aspects of music and start integrating theory, history, composition, improvisation and aural skills instruction to their curriculums. However, while CM has had a strong influence on many music programs, it is not clear whether this trend has influenced the field of private piano instruction, and whether CM elements have been included and integrated in beginner piano method books. To address this question, categories that constitute the core elements of CM were selected to conduct a content analysis of 12 piano method series. Analysis showed that the focus tends to be on aural skills (as teacher duets), and theory, with a noticeable lack of the more creative activities of improvisation and composition.
Effect of Cooling Rate on Mechanical Properties and Microstructure of New C61 Gear Steel

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

With the help of optical microscope(OM),scanning electron microscope (SEM),transmission electron microscope(TEM),X-ray diffractometer (XRD)and other equipment,through mechanical performance testing and microstruc- ture observation,we explored the effects of furnace cooling,water cooling,and asbestos slow cooling three different cooling methods on the structure and properties of the hot-rolled condition C61 steel,compared the performance of the test steel in different conditions. The experimental results show that the cooling rate has a great influence on the performance of the test steel. Due to Vwater cooling＞ Vasbestos slow cooling＞ Vfurnace coolingthe strength and hardness of the test steel under water cooling condition are higher than those of furnace cooling and asbestos slow cooling. After hot rolling and water cooling,the tensile strength(Rm)and reduction of area(Z%)of the test steel are 1450 MPa and 62.7%,XRD analysis shows that the residual austenite content of the steel increases with the increased cooling rate after hot rolling,and the surface-centered cubic austenite is conducive to improve the toughness of the test steel. It can be seen that the test steel after hot rolled + water cooling was heated at 950 ℃ for 1 h quenched by water,and cold treatment at -73 ℃ for 1 h, then returned to room temperature,finally tempering at 482 ℃ for 16 h,air cooling to room temperature is the best process scheme.

Meyerâ€™s Approach on Musical Analysis and Its Relevance to Indonesian Analytical Study of Western Music

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

This critical review of Leonard Bunce Meyer's musical analysis theory is aimed at obtaining a basic understanding of an approach that seems uncommon in Indonesian studies of Western music. This study uses a speculative method with descriptive as well as critical approaches, where Meyer's analysis theory is depicted critically by conforming it toward Nicolas Cook's critical review which was based on the Shenkerian concept. The relevance application of this analysis model in the studies of musical form in Indonesia then is discussed. This study concluded that the psychological music analysis of Meyer was carried out by the foreground expectations of the tonal music linear and rhythmical analysis. Compared to the Shenkerian approach which gives greater attention to the harmonic reduction that focused on the harmonic background of tonal music, Meyerâ€™s approach would be less practical in observing at large-scale musical structures. Meyerâ€™s analysis would be valuable to the performers as well as music analysts if they also take into account their musical style concepts which mostly regarded as the area of aesthetic rather than technical analysis. For Indonesia, this method is appropriate for Master and Doctorate studies in Western Music.
SOCIAL SCIENCE: Sherlock Holmes and Sociology

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

101 Footsteps, and a man bursts into the Baker Street flat. Have a seat, Sherlock Holmes might say. I know not who you are, but that you are a bachelor, a clerk of some kind, and that you have not spoken to anyone in several days. Inevitably, Holmes's first deductions are sociological marital status, occupation, social interactions. His methods and thought are the tools of the social scientist as much as of the consulting detective, as Holmes calls himself. He says that he studies the criminal mind, but he really studies the criminal's social position. Sociology is crucial to Arthur Conan Doyle's stories, and Sherlock Holmes, in some ways the sociologist par excellence, is at their center. Sherlock Holmes is the defender of social norms; he enters a case not when a law, but when a norm, has been broken. In story after story this is so. Two people who love each other are kept from marriage. This is not illegal; it isn't even immoral. Wages should be commensurate with work; an exorbitant wage is cause for investigation. There should be no secrets between a husband and wife, yet one spouse in a marriage is acting mysteriously. Two people are scheduled to marry, but one fails to show up at the altar. No public crime has been committed, no private transgression even, but an unspoken social rule has been broken. A man, defender of home and family, is missing and thus unable to defend his home and family. Social fabric is torn. Holmes, in each instance, is called in. Sherlock Holmes is no mere defender of
Regeneration of Potassium Poisoned Catalysts for the Selective Catalytic Reduction of NO with NH3

Field: Chemical Engineering (Physical Sciences)

In this study, we investigated the effect of potassium on the activity and regeneration of potassium-poisoned SCR catalysts. With the addition of potassium species, the NO conversion rate of the catalysts continuously decreased. After washing the poisoned catalysts with an H2SO4 solution or doping them with CeO2, the activity of the catalysts was improved to different extents. Acid washing almost completely removed the surface potassium species, freeing acidic sites to adsorb NH3, but it also potentially removed some of the active components, such as vanadia. CeO2 doping, on the other hand, added active components. Combining these two methods, the poisoned catalysts were washed with an H2SO4 solution and then doped with 5 wt.% CeO2. It was found that the level of activity could be restored to that of a fresh catalyst, and a conversion rate of over 90% was observed for NO between 300°C and 450°C, as the added CeO2 compensated for the active components lost during SCR reactions. Consequently, the above hybrid method shows high potential for regenerating commercial SCR catalysts.
Space phobia: syndrome or agoraphobic variant?

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Four elderly women had intense fears of falling when there was no visible support at hand or on seeing space cues while driving. Two patients had cervical spondylosis. The mean age at onset of the fear was 54--thirty years later than that for agoraphobia. Fear of public places and of heights was not prominent, nor was depersonalisation or depression. These "space phobias" might be a hitherto unrecognised syndrome or an unusual variant of agoraphobia. The visuospatial reflexes involved might illuminate the pathogenesis of certain fears.

Transfer Factor of Heavy Metals due to Mining Activities in Plateau State, Nigeria (Health Implications on the Inhabitants)

Field: Environmental Science (Physical Sciences)

Accumulation of heavy metals in agricultural soils is instigated by industrial and other human activities such as mining, smelting, cement-pollution, energy and fuel production, power transmission, traffic activities, intensive agriculture, sludge dumping and melting operations. Plants received heavy metals from soils through ionic exchange, redox reactions, precipitation-dissolution, and so on. Which implies that the solubility of trace elements based on factors like minerals in the soil (carbonates, oxide, hydroxide etc.), soil organic matter (humic acids, fulvic acids, polysaccharides and organic acids), soil pH, redox potential, content, nutrient balance, other trace elements concentration in soil, physical and mechanical characteristics of soil, soil temperature and humidity, and so on. In this study, the soil-edible plant and soil-water Transfer Factor (TF) for various metals showed that the TF values differed slightly between the locations. On soil-edible plant transfer, the mean TF for different heavy metals in soil-edible plants decreased in the following order: As (0.6) mg/kg > Cd (0.1) mg/kg > Cr (0.06) mg/kg > Pb (0.003) mg/kg > Ni (0.001) mg/kg. The total TF for different location decreases in the following order: Barkin Ladi (1.0) mg/kg > Jos South and Jos East (0.7) mg/kg > Bassa and Mangu (0.6) mg/kg. On soil-water transfer, the mean TF for different heavy metals in soil-edible plants decreased in the following order: Cd (0.001) mg/l > As (0.0007) mg/l > Cr (0.0005) mg/l > Pb (0.0001) mg/l and Ni (0.0001) mg/l. The total TF for different location decreases in the following order: Jos South (0.003) mg/kg > Barkin Ladi, Bassa, Jos East and Mangu (0.002) mg/kg. Based on the findings of this study, it can be concluded that the water and edible plants in the study area are good for public consumption, even though, regular checking of heavy metals in the study area is recommended.
Bridging the p-type transparent conductive materials gap: synthesis approaches for disperse valence band materials

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

Transparent conductive materials (TCMs) with high p-type conductivity and broadband transparency have remained elusive for years. Despite decades of research, no p-type material has yet been found to match the performance of n-type TCMs. If developed, the high-performance p-type TCMs would lead to significant advances in a wide range of technologies, including thin-film transistors, transparent electronics, flat screen displays, and photovoltaics. Recent insights from high-throughput computational screening have defined design principles for identifying candidate materials with low hole effective mass, also known as disperse valence band materials. Particularly, materials with mixed-anion chemistry and nonoxide materials have received attention as being promising next-generation p-type TCMs. However, experimental demonstrations of these compounds are scarce compared to the computational output. One reason for this gap is the experimental difficulty of safely and controllably sourcing elements, such as sulfur, phosphorous, and iodine for depositing these materials in thin-film form. Another important obstacle to experimental realization is air stability or stability with respect to formation of the competing oxide phases. We summarize experimental demonstrations of disperse valence band materials, including synthesis strategies and common experimental challenges. We end by outlining recommendations for synthesizing p-type TCMs still absent from the literature and highlight remaining experimental barriers to be overcome.
Il contributo italiano alla numismatica della Sicilia antica

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

With reference to the Italian scientific research the Author presents the development of studies on Sicilian numismatics starting from the pre-monetal phases to the early Roman-imperial age. The fil rouge of this data presentation largely coincides with the chronology of the Italian Congresses concerning some historical problems about coinage minted in Sicily or other currency circulating in the island. The Author discusses the major “open” problems in Sicilian numismatics starting from the hypothesized contemporary presence of the litra and the obolos to the beginning of bronze coinage; from the chronology of the demareteion/decadrachm to the attribution to the tyrant Dionysius of the Syracusan series of “master signers”; from the significant political and economic influence of Ptolemaic Egypt to the “Sicilian perspective” of the introduction of the denarius system in Rome. The distinction of the scientific contributions in five main sections (the monetary findings and the (several) Sylloge Nummorum Graecorum, the Historical Studies, the Metrology and Pondometry, the Art of Sicilian Coins, the Iconography of Sicilian coins) highlights the remarkable development of the studies concerning the coins iconography and the birth of a “digital numismatics” for the diachronic and diatopic study of coin types.
[The efficacy of sanatorium treatment of adolescents with destructive tuberculosis of the lungs].

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Compared to the urban population, tuberculosis morbidity among adolescents living in the rural areas means a greater number of serious cases prone to decomposition and dissemination processes as a consequence of their late detection. Sanatorium and health resort treatment of adolescents with destructive pulmonary tuberculosis appears to be highly effective in the institutions situated along the southern shore of the Crimea.
The Effects of Practical Problem-Based Home Economics Instruction (PPBHEI) on Middle School Students' Creativity: Focusing on the Content on “Clothing Management and Recycling”

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

The purpose of this study was to test the effects of Practical Problem-Based Home Economics Instruction (PPBHEI) on middle school students' creativity, focusing on the content on “clothing management and recycling.” This study carried out quasi-experimental research with an independent variable of PPBHEI and a dependent variable of creativity. The experiment was based on a sample of 62 (31 in each group) second grade students in the Cheongju area over four class hours. ANCOVA was performed to examine pre-test and post-test differences between the experimental group and the control group. The results showed that PPBHEI did not improve the level of creativity but improved the level of creative motivation among the sub-elements of creativity (creative thinking, creative tendency, creative motivation). In particular, PPBHEI improved the level of independence in creative tendency, intrinsic motivation, and diligence in creative motivation. From the results of this study, it can be concluded that PPBHEI is effective in improving independence, intrinsic motivation, and diligence in respect of middle school students’creativity.
Paediatrics—Past and Present

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Background

Delayed functional independence (DFI) in patients who do not experience early improvement after endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) is commonly observed in clinical practice. Recent studies suggest that the rate of DFI is approximately 30%. Younger age, lower discharge NIHSS score, and absence of any hemorrhage are independent predictors of DFI. We aim to validate the recently reported DEFIANT score to predict delayed functional improvement in the TIGER Study.

Methods

Demographic, clinical, radiological, treatment, and procedural information were analyzed from Tiger Trial (patients with complete data and undergoing EVT for anterior circulation LVO). Incidence of delayed functional independence (DFI, mRS score 0–2 at 90 days in non-EFI patients) was analyzed and the DEFIANT score was validated in the TIGER study. The DEFIANT score incorporates age, discharge NIHSS score, and presence/absence of any hemorrhage at discharge (Online calculator: https://bit.ly/3KZRVq5) probability of DFI= e(3.9699 – (.0359 * age) – (.2276*discharge NIHSS) – (.6013*hemorrhage)/[1 + e3.9699 – (.0359 * age) – (.2276*discharge NIHSS) – (.6013 *hemorrhage)]

Results

A total of 137 patients met study criteria. DFI was observed in 38% (30/79) of non-early improvers (79/137). Receiver operating curves for the DEFIANT score showed a robust capacity to predict delayed functional independence (using optimal cut-off of 0.42 for predicting DFI) (figure 1: area under the curve 0.775). The DEFIANT score had sensitivity 69%, specificity 86%, positive predictive value 74%, and negative predictive value 87% for detecting DFI. If the TIGER study had stopped follow-up for outcomes at discharge and used the DEFIANT score, rate of predicted 90-day mRS 0–2 would be similar to actually observed 90-day mRS 0–2 (60.5% vs 61.3%, p=0.90).

Conclusion

The DEFIANT score, utilizing readily available variables such as age, discharge NIHSS score, and presence/absence of any hemorrhage, is a reliable tool to predict the probability of delayed functional independence after stroke thrombectomy.
