Massage has been widely applied to improve health and reduce stress. However, the performance difference between hands-on treatment and treatment by mechanical devices has been little mentioned. Therefore, the main aim of this paper is to investigate a subject's EEG performance under massage treatment applied by hand and treatment applied by mechanical devices. Massage was applied to four acupoints for three minutes each. The massage acupoint sequence was from left Jian-wai-yu, right Jian-wai-yu, left Zuo-fei-yu, and finally right Zuo-fei-yu. An EEG system of 32 channels was used. Twenty-four volunteers, mainly college students, were enrolled. EEG rhythm powers of each massage sessions were derived. Two-way ANOVA revealed that there were also significant interactions between the massage stage and the massage type on delta(P<0.01), theta(P<0.05), and beta rhythms(P<0.01), and there were significant differences at different stages for the mechanical massage group (F=5.557,P<0.01). The mechanical massage group had more significant differences than the hands-on group for stage coherence of around coherence on alpha rhythm. Further rhythm power scalp topography between two massage methods is also investigated.

Full textAbstract:
"Flower paradigm" has a great influence on the development of ci. Wang Yisun, a poetist in the late Song Dynasty, intended to break through the paradigm, but his standard "outside of flowers" was not free from the influence of "between flowers". Compared with Hua Jian, "Hua Wai" is a unique style inherited and newly changed in the relationship between lyric mode and ci meaning. The inheritance and innovation of Bishan ci are embodied in lyrical Angle, emotion, image structure and contrast between ci and meaning. To explore the relationship between Wang Yisun's ci poems and "flower-to-flower paradigm", we can get a glimpse of the origin of the formation of "flower-to-flower paradigm", and also provide a new perspective for us to review "flower-to-flower".

Abstract In this paper we describe how a COVID-19 phone app was localized by students of the MA program in Translation and Interpreting at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. The project presented unique challenges including the urgency and short time-lines, less-than-optimal internationalization of the source code, limitations of the CAT tool, and the use of an open-source platform and crowd-sourced agile development model, in addition to particular linguistic aspects related to the new specialized subject matter, limited string context, and potentially sensitive data. On the other hand, it offered the opportunity to experience a real-life localization project, which had important pedagogical benefits for translation students. These and other aspects are described and suggestions proposed to enable similar projects to run smoothly.

Abstract Intercultural crisis communication in an interconnected and globalized world emphasizes the need for translation to be put in place as foreign nationals with cultural and linguistic barriers might rely on it to prepare for a possible crisis or make informed decisions when already affected by a crisis. However, translation is an underdeveloped tool in crisis management, particularly in China. Considering it a special branch of public service translation, the author investigates crisis translation by using a case study of the disruptive outbreak of novel coronavirus disease in Wuhan. Based upon the author’s first-hand experience as a crisis manager at the Office of Foreigner Affairs in the Municipal Government of Wuhan, this article describes how government translators with the help of external volunteer translators made language services available and accessible to affected foreign nationals in the response phase from 8 January 2020 to 7 April 2020. It analyses these translation-mediated activities from a crisis manager’s perspective. Despite the preliminary nature of the findings, which still call for further validation, it is hoped that insights from this article will be of interest to those who are engaged with crisis translation services and to those who research crisis translation.

Objective: To prospectively evaluate possible decline of cognitive functions in adult patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) and identify associated factors. Patients and methods: We performed a 24-month prospective observational study of adults (≥16 years) with JIA. The primary outcome measure was decline in cognitive function defined as a worsening of ≥2 points on the scales of the subsets administered to evaluate the different cognitive areas using the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS) after 24 months: attention/concentration (digit span); verbal function (vocabulary); visual-spatial organization (block design); working memory (letter-number sequencing); and problem solving (similarities). Other variables included average inflammatory activity using C-reactive protein and composite activity indexes, comorbidity, and treatment. Logistic regression was performed to identify factors associated with cognitive decline. Results: The study population comprised 52 patients with JIA. Of these, 15 (28.8%) had cognitive decline at V24. The most affected functions were working memory (17.3%), attention/concentration (9.6%), verbal function (7.7%), visual-spatial organization (7.7%), and problem solving (3.8%). There were no significant differences in the median direct or scale scores for the cognitive functions evaluated between V0 and V24 for the whole sample. The factors associated with cognitive decline in patients with JIA were average C-reactive protein (OR [95% CI], 1.377 [1.060–1.921]; p = 0.039), depression (OR [95% CI], 3.691 [1.294–10.534]; p = 0.015), and treatment with biologics (OR [95% CI], 0.188 [0.039–0.998]; p = 0.046). Conclusion: Cognitive decline was detected in almost one third of adults with JIA after 24 months of follow-up. Systemic inflammatory activity in JIA patients was related to cognitive decline. Patients treated with biologics had a lower risk of decline in cognitive functions.

Full textAbstract:
In Asia, the socio-linguistic history has sometimes made blossom the epistolary enunciation on the screen and has sometimes made it whiter. Melodramas developed the oralised destiny-letters as hinges of dramatic narration. Even a cinema under communist regime like that of North Korea maintains this model but by diverting it to the profit of his supreme epistolarian and leader. Starting from the 1990s, filmmakers like Shunji Iwai and Jeong Jae-eun screen the letters by assigning them a veridiction power in conflict: social/persona. Wong Kar-wai extends the epistolary enunciation to the whole narrative structure of the voices over of his films as memory interiorities. Finally, the transition to digital and virtual communication spaces has led filmmakers like Hideo Nakata and Jia Zhangke to underline the hauntological distance, spectral in Derrida’s sense; distance linked to the power of invisible big communicators which become inevitable thirds at the heart of all exchanges.

ObjectivesProspectively evaluate changes in the cognitive function of patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) and associated factors.MethodsDesign and protocol: We performed a prospective cohort study with JIA patients that participated in a previous cross-sectional study (2019) to evaluate cognitive function. After 24 months, the patients were administered the same test battery previously used through an established protocol, and data was collected from their clinical histories. The neuropsychological tests were corrected by a neurologist and neuropsychologist.Study population: Inclusion criteria: Patients aged ≥16 years with JIA classified according to the criteria of ILAR 2001. Patients with inflammatory or rheumatic diseases other than JIA, previous neurological disease not associated with the course of JIA, and patients with scores lower than the normal in the manual skill test were excluded. Outcomes: The main variable was cognitive impairment, defined as worsening of ≥2 scaled points after 24 months (V24) in any of the subtests used to evaluate each cognitive area in the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS). The evaluated cognitive domains and their respective subtests were: Attention/concentration (Digit Span); verbal function (Vocabulary); visuospatial organization (Block Design); working memory (Letter-Number Sequencing); problem-solving (Similarities). Depression was evaluated by The Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II): minimal (0-13), mild (14-19), moderate (20-28), and severe (29-63). Other variables: Clinical-epidemiological characteristics; treatments; and inflammatory activity evaluated as the C-reactive protein average (CRP) and JADAS-27 along the 2 years of follow-up.Statistical analysis: Descriptive analysis, followed by χ2 and paired T-test. Multivariate analysis to identify independent variables associated with impairment of cognitive function in JIA.ResultsThirty patients with JIA were included. The clinical characteristics in V24 are shown in Table 1. Thirteen patients (43%) showed impairment in one or more cognitive functions. The most frequent impaired cognitive functions were verbal function (13.3%), visuospatial organization (13.3%) and problem solving (13.3%); followed by attention/concentration (10.0%) and working memory (6.7%). The variables independently associated with cognitive impairment were the mean CRP along the follow-up (OR [IC 95%], 1.510 [1.012-2.254]; p=0.044) and depression (OR [IC 95%], 1.358 [1.028-1.794]; p=0.031). This model would explain the 47% of the cognitive impairment in JIA (R2=0.470).Table 1.

Full textAbstract:
The present study was undertaken to examine the influence of ego depletion and expectancy beliefs (EB) about the limited will power of self-control on task performance and task persistence through a 2 (ego depleted vs. non-ego depleted group) x 3 (group with positive EB, group with negative EB, and the group without any EB) between subject experimental design. The participants (N = 210) were undergraduates of University of Sargodha who were randomly distributed to each of the six treatment conditions. Ego Depletion Task (Baumeister, Bratslavsky, Muraven, & Tice, 1998) and Feedback Task (Fried & Aronson, 1995) were adapted for the manipulation of the independent variables. Working memory (WM) was assessed through Digit Symbol Coding subscale of WAIS (Wechsler, 1997) and scores and time taken on an anagram task (Clarkson, Hirt, Jia, & Alexander, 2010) operationalized performance on problem-solving and task persistence, respectively. Multivariate analysis of variance indicated that the participants in the non-depleted group had significantly higher mean scores on problem-solving and WM tasks than those of their counterparts in the ego-depleted group. The group with the positive EB had the highest mean scores on WM and problem-solving tasks as compared to the other groups. The interaction effect of beliefs about limited will power of selfcontrol and ego depletion remained nonsignificant. Limitations and recommendations for future research were reflected upon.

Full textAbstract:
Recently, sulfonamides have been shown to be promising electrolyte components due to their high chemical and electrochemical stability in lithium batteries [1, 2]. The electrolyte stability becomes critical when applying high voltage and/or utilizing Ni-rich layered oxides in high energy density lithium-ion batteries. Another approach to successful Ni-rich cathode performance is to develop a stable and effective cathode electrolyte interphase (CEI). Given the success of sultones and sulfates in this regard [3, 4], it is hypothesized that nitrogen analogs, like sulfonamides, could be tailored to provide a similar benefit. Indeed, Yim et al. [5, 6] have shown that N,N,N’,N’-tetraethylsulfamide (TES) forms a CEI on NMC811 that imparts high voltage cycling stability and less cathode corrosion. Our earlier studies of TES with Ni-rich NCA also formed a favorable CEI and these results are the topic of this presentation. Herein, we examine the performance of 0 - 4 wt.% TES in our commercially available, high power INR18650-P28A. These cells contain a composite SiO/graphite anode in addition to a Ni-rich cathode. As shown in Fig 1, TES significantly decreased the impedance of the cathode interface after conditioning compared to the control electrolyte. Thereafter, cells containing up to 2%TES show improved capacity retention during long-term high-rate cycling (+1C/-80W). Part of this success was due to a suppression of resistance growth during cycling by TES. Fast charge cycling (+3C/-2C), however, was moderately impaired with increased TES. Considering the largely reduced impedance of the cathode, fast-charge performance may have suffered due to anode rate limitations. These results will be discussed as well as gas generation, storage performance, and additional rate and cycling tests. [1] Shuting Feng, Mingjun Huang, Jessica R.

LFP/Graphite cells are attractive because they are cheaper[1], safer[2,3] and can achieve acceptable energy density for most applications. A limitation of the LFP/Graphite cells is their inferior capacity retention at elevated temperature when compared to NMC/Graphite cells especially in the absence of electrolyte additives, e.g., VC (Vinylene carbonate), as observed by our group in a recent study[4].The time it takes for a LFP graphite cell to completely self-discharge at 60oC is around 500 hours with a base electrolyte of 1.5 M LiPF6 (Lithium hexafluorophosphate) dissolved in 7:3 DMC:EC (Dimethyl carbonate/ethylene carbonate)[4]. It also has been observed that during cycling some Fe will accumulate on the anode which can be explained by dissolution of Fe from the cathode and subsequent deposition on the anode. With the same electrolyte as mentioned before we can observe up to 0.2 μg/cm2 on the anode after 60 cycles at 40⁰C[4]. The goal of this research is to understand what is happening inside the LFP/Graphite cells by analyzing the electrolyte from cells that only did a formation procedure. We were able to extract different electrolytes from LFP/Graphite and NMC811/Graphite pouch cells. We expected the electrolyte to stay clear as it was just after preparation, but we observed yellow and red colors depending on the temperature of formation. If the electrolyte contained 2%wt VC, no color change was observed. The different electrolytes used for the experiments were LiPF6, LiFSI (Lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide) and LiPF6+2%wt VC all dissolved in 7:3 DMC:EC. The extracted electrolytes were put inside coin cells with an Al foil working-electrode (WE) and a Li foil counter-electrode (CE) and cyclic voltammetry (CV) was done on them from 2.6 V - 3.75 V vs. Li+/Li. The CV traces show the presence of current in the μA range for electrolyte without VC extracted from LFP cells, indicating the presence of a reversible shuttle species. The electrolyte with no VC expected from LFP cells showed more current than the corresponding electrolyte extracted from NMC811 cells. There was almost no current in the coin cells using electrolytes with 2% VC extracted from the LFP and NMC811 cells. We also made systematic experiments at different formation temperature and different wait times before extraction. Figure 1: Observation of the different electrolytes extracted from LFP/Graphite cells with a) 1.5 M LiPF6 EC:DMC 3:7 and b) 1.5 M LiPF6 +2%wt VC EC:DMC 3:7 that did formation at 25, 40 ,55 and 70⁰C (left to right).

Full textAbstract:
This article aims to study whether the increase of agricultural settlements in the Sultanate of Oman during the Late Islamic period (c. 1500-1950) was related to pre-oil globalization, as attested in the wider Gulf region. This is done by analysing the archaeological dataset of the agricultural village of Sahlat, with a focus on the ceramic material, located in the Suhar region. The assemblages collected by the Wadi al-Jizzi Archaeological Project, point to its occupation from c. 1750 to 1930. During this time period, the coastal towns of southeastern Arabia were heavily influenced by globalization processes, but the effects and reach of trade on rural communities remains poorly known. In this paper, Sahlat is compared to two contemporary sites connected to the same falaj system, and two other sites in the Gulf region. The results indicate that pre-oil globalization did not only impact coastal towns, but that rural settlements such as Sahlat experienced similar transformations. It is suggested that pre-oil globalization was not only linked to the pearling trade, but that the export of dates should also be taken into consideration when studying this topic.

The operating system must be able to control resource usage. In the process of designing the operating system, there is a common foundation called kongkurensi. Processes called kongkuren if processes (more than one process) are at the same time. This is called the multitasking operating system. Kongkuren processes can be completely independent of the other but can also interact with each other. Processes that require synchronization in order to interact properly controlled. However, the processes that interact kongkuren, there are problems to be solved such as deadlock and synchronization. Deadlock occurs because a set of processes in a block where every process of bringing a resource and waiting to get the resources brought by another process so there is a wait state which will never expire (deadlock).Dining Philosophers Problem is an illustration of the possibility of a deadlock, a condition in which two or more processes can not continue its execution as they waited for the use of resources.

Full textAbstract:
Modern scholarship on the medieval Sahara has focused on a handful of famous entrepôt sites that have their origins in the 8th century or later, and as a result we still understand very poorly the nature and extent of Saharan oasis settlement and agriculture in the golden age of Saharan trade. This article presents the first securely dated chronology for oasis development in the north-west Sahara based on three seasons of archaeological survey and a comprehensive radiocarbon dating programme in the Wadi Draa, Morocco. The Draa Valley contains some of the largest, most populous and most productive oases in the Sahara, as well as serving as an important travel corridor for trading caravans coming from West Africa to access the Atlas passes and reach Marrakech. Focusing on evidence from a large zone of abandoned oases on the Kasr Bounou Plain, this article demonstrates that while oasis agriculture and settlement was taking place between the 4th–8th centuries—well before the Muslim conquest of Morocco—there was a significant increase in settlement and agricultural exploitation from the 9th century. This phenomenon is marked by the appearance of substantial mudbrick settlements, along with irrigation and field systems, and is coterminous with the development of the medieval trading entrepôt of Sijilmasa. A settlement boom and significant investment in irrigated oasis agriculture occurred between the 11th and 13th centuries, contemporary with Almoravid and Almohad rule of the Draa, followed by a retraction and abandonment of much of the oasis by the 16th century. The new evidence from the Draa challenges the long-held belief that sedentarization and irrigated oasis agriculture were unique to the medieval period in the north-west Sahara.

ObjectiveThe study aims to compare the implementation and prognosis of emergency digit replantation surgery before and after normalized corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) nucleic acid testing for patients taking emergency operation and to explore the influence of normalized COVID-19 nucleic acid testing on replantation surgery.MethodNormalized COVID-19 nucleic acid testing for patients taking emergency operation has been carried out since 1 August 2021 at our hospital, which means each patient who needs emergency surgical treatment has to obtain either positive or negative results of COVID-19 nucleic acid before entering the operating room. This research reviewed and compared the prognosis of the injured extremity that had emergency severed digit replantation between June and September 2021, at the Shanghai Sixth People's Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, and analyzed the impact of normalized COVID-19 nucleic acid testing on the outcome of the replanted fingers of different severity using disability of arm-shoulder-hand (DASH) and hand injury severity scoring (HISS) scoring systems.ResultsA total of 54 cases with 74 severed replanted phalanges were included replanted by the research group between 1 August and 30 September 2021, without any COVID-19 suspected/confirmed case detected. Compared with previous period (1 June to 31 July, 2021), although the interval between emergency visits and emergency replantation did increase significantly after normalized COVID-19 nucleic acid testing [(3.83 ± 0.94) to (1.77 ± 0.67) h, P < 0.05], we observed no significant difference in the improvement rate of the DASH scoring of the disabled upper extremity 3-month postoperatively (P = 0.538) nor in the complication rate (P = 0.344). Moreover, there was no significant difference in the improvement rate of the DASH scoring of the disabled upper extremity 3-month postoperatively in patients with different traumatic severities before and after normalized COVID-19 nucleic acid testing (moderate P = 0.269, severe P = 0.055, major P = 0.149).ConclusionDespite the preoperative delay, the policy of COVID-19 nucleic acid testing normalization does not have explicit influence on the short-term outcomes of emergency digit replantation surgery. With this evidence, microsurgeons could pay attention to the patients' anxiety and spend more effort in comforting them during the prolonged preoperative wait. These insights may have implications for other emergency department resource management whenever a social crisis occurs.

Abstract Introduction/Background Vaccination of children and young people (CYP) with rheumatic and auto-inflammatory diseases is reported to be lower than amongst healthy peers. Whilst vaccination to confer protection against COVID-19 is now underway amongst adults and adolescents, vaccination of CYP under 16 years was not available at the time of this study. This study sought to understand the views of parents/carers regarding vaccination against COVID-19 for CYP with rheumatic and autoinflammatory diseases. Description/Method An online survey was developed and shared via social media and direct contacts, targeted at parents of children with rheumatic and autoinflammatory conditions in Canada. Fieldwork took place during May 2021. Consent was provided during enrolment. Discussion/Results A total of 157 responses were received (78% female, median age 12). The primary diagnosis for the majority was Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA; 39% polyarticular, 15% oligoarticular, 8% enthesitis-related JIA, 6% psoriatic, and 9% systemic). At the time of completing the survey, the majority of CYP had received no vaccination against COVID-19 (83%), although 17% had received one dose; none had received both doses. The majority of parents/carers (55%) would agree for their child to be vaccinated to prevent COVID-19 if the vaccine was approved and available at no cost, with only 10% saying they would not agree, and 18% unsure. Overall, 40% would allow their child to have the vaccine as soon as it was available, with a further 22% who would prefer to wait, and 10% who will allow their child to have the vaccine only when required to. Reasons given by parents choosing not to vaccinate their child against COVID-19 focussed on perceived safety, apparent lack of testing, and alleged potential damage caused by vaccines. In addition, some respondents advised that they had seen anti-vaccine videos on social media targeted at young people, but would still have their child vaccinated when it was available. The majority (92%) cited their doctor or health professionals would be a key source of information when deciding whether to vaccinate their child; however, this varied significantly (p=.0017, chisquare) based on whether they currently would agree to have their child vaccinated, with only 69% of parents who would not vaccinate their child saying their healthcare professional would influence their decision. Around 38% of parents would be influenced by information from their patient organisation. Parents who indicated they would not be vaccinated themselves were less likely to agree for their child to be vaccinated (p<.001, chi-square). Key learning points/Conclusion Healthcare professionals play a vital role in supporting, advising and influencing parental decision-making with regards to COVID-19 vaccination amongst CYP with rheumatic and autoinflammatory conditions, particularly amongst parents/carers who are currently undecided. Working collaboratively with patient organisations to deliver simple, clear advice may help reduce vaccine hesitancy.

The 2022 International Conference on New Energy, Energy Storage and Power Engineering (NESP 2022) was held successfully on July 15-17, 2022 in Kunming, China. NESP 2022 was to bring together innovative academics and industrial experts in the field of New Energy Science, Energy Storage and Power Engineering to a common forum. The primary goal of the conference was to promote research and developmental activities in New Energy Science, Energy Storage and Power Engineering and another goal was to promote scientific information interchange between researchers, developers, engineers, students, and practitioners working all around the world. During the conference, the conference model was divided into two sessions, including oral presentations and keynote speeches. In the first part, some scholars, whose submissions were selected as the excellent papers, were given about 5-10 minutes to perform their oral presentations one by one. Then in the second part, keynote speakers were each allocated 30-45 minutes to hold their speeches. We were greatly honored to invite Prof. Guosheng Shao from University of Surrey, UK and Zhengzhou University, China to serve as the Conference Chairman. His academic interest is “designer” materials and application devices, with current focus on sustainable (renewable) energy systems and environmental technologies. There were over 120 participants attending the meeting. In the second part, we were greatly honor to have invited ten distinguished experts as our keynote speakers. The keynote speakers list as follow: Prof. John Wang, from National University of Singapore, Singapore; Prof. Jian-Qiao Sun, from University of California, Merced; Prof. Jae Su Yu, from Kyung Hee University, Republic of Korea; Prof. Eric Cheng Ka-wai, from Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hong-Kong, China; Prof. Guosheng Shao, from University of Surrey, UK and Zhengzhou University, China; Prof. Yang Hui Ying, from Singapore University of Technology and Design, Singapore; Prof. Lei Zuo, from Virginia Tech, USA; Prof. Bote Zhao, from South China University of Technology, China; Prof. Feixiang Wu, from Central South University, China; Prof. Xin Chen, from East China University of Science and Technology, China. NESP 2022 aimed to present the latest research and results of scientists related to New Energy, Energy Storage and Power Engineering. Therefore, we compiled a lot of excellent papers featuring the latest advanced studies on the following topics: electrochemical energy storage device, thermal energy storage, power system, smart grid and other related topics. All the papers have been through rigorous review and process to meet the requirements of international publication standard. We would like express our gratitude to all the participants, who have made this conference a great success. Without the dedicated cooperation, it would be impossible to hold the conference at such a high level and prepare the NESP 2022 proceedings. We hope all the participants have had a wonderful time at the conference. We hope that those volumes will not only provide the readers a broad overview of the latest advances but also provide the researchers a valuable summary and reference in this field.
