National sports are highly valued throughout Asia, yet, political and administrative concerns impede the expansion of the sport system landscape. This study aims to investigate the effect of political governance structure on Asian sporting performance. To accomplish so, we analyzed the relationship between corruption control, government effectiveness, political stability, regulatory law, and national sports performance from 1998 to 2018 while controlling for the rule of law and accountability. The Generalized Linear Model and Partial Least Square estimators were utilized to examine the data. No significant association was observed between political and governance structure and national sports performance in the Asian countries under examination, according to the study's findings. The paper includes recommendations for further research and consequences for the government and policymakers.

Knowing the factors that influence a nation's sporting performance can aid in formulating appropriate policies and plans. This study examines the relationship between gross domestic product, population, total debt, inflation, and trade as a proportion of GDP for eleven Asian nations from 1998 to 2018. Panel unit root tests, cointegration tests, and finally, Fully Modified Ordinary Least Square (FMLOS) were used to examine the relationships between the variables. The panel results revealed that GDP and TRD favorably and significantly impact national sports performance, whereas POP and TD have a negative impact. INF was discovered to have a negligible effect on national athletic performance. Hence, we suggest that Asian nations take appropriate measures to boost national sporting achievements.

Suanpang, Pannee; Jamjuntr, Pitchaya; Kaewyong, Phuripoj; Niamsorn, Chawalin; Jermsittiparsert, Kittisak
The world is entering an era of awareness of the preservation of natural energy sustainability. Therefore, electric vehicles (EVs) have become a popular alternative in today's transportation system as they have zero emissions, save energy, and reduce pollution. One of the most significant problems with EVs is an inadequate charging infrastructure and spatially and temporally uneven charging demands. As such, EV drivers in many large cities frequently struggle to find suitable charging locations. Furthermore, the recent emergence of deep reinforcement learning has shown great promise for improving the charging experience in a variety of ways over the long term. In this paper, a Spatio-Temporal Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning (STMARL) (Master) framework is proposed for intelligently public-accessible charging stations, taking into account several long-term spatio-temporal parameters. When compared to a random selection recommendation system, the experimental results demonstrate that an STMARL (master) framework has a long-term goal of lowering the overall charging wait time (CWT), average charging price (CP), and charging failure rate (CFR) of EVs.

Objective: 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU), a widely administered anti-cancer drug, causes gastrointestinal damage through various mechanisms. This study aimed to investigate the ameliorative effect of silk fibroin (SF), which has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, against 5 FU-induced gastrointestinal damage. Materials and methods: Wistar albino rats were divided into 3 groups; Control group, 5-FU group (30mg/kg/day on days 0, 2, 4), and 5-FU+SF (30 mg/kg/day 5-FU on days 0, 2, 4 + 600 mg/kg/day SF for 14 days). At the end of the experiment, stomach and intestinal tissue samples were collected and immunohistochemically iNOS, caspase-3, CD4+ and CD8+ were measured. Besides, structural damage was assessed with hematoxylin-eosin and caspase-3 and 9 activities were evaluated using western blot analysis. Results and Discussion: It was determined that iNOS, caspase-3, caspase-9 activities, CD4+ and CD8+ levels and structural damage significantly increased in both stomach and intestinal tissues. Furthermore, elevated markers were regressed almost to control levels in SF administrated group. Conclusion: SF may have an ameliorative effect, thus reducing the gastrointestinal damage caused by 5 FU. More clinical and scientific research should be conducted as the silk fibroin may be a suitable candidate against the adverse effects of chemotherapeuic agents.

Pulp canal obliteration (PCO) is a significant complication in endodontics that can occur due to various factors. Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is a useful diagnostic tool for identifying root canal anatomy and variations, and guided endodontics is emerging as an alternative treatment solution for teeth with partially or entirely obliterated pulpal canals. However, the accuracy of CBCT-guided 3D-printed guides on different materials and layer thicknesses is not well understood. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the accuracy of guides prepared using CBCT images on 3D-printed teeth with stereolithography (SLA) using three different materials and two different layer thicknesses. This study found that 3D-printed guides were accurate and reliable for accessing 3D-manufactured obliterated teeth and reaching the apical area. No significant differences in distance or angle measurements were found when different guide materials were used, suggesting that materials can be selected based on availability and cost. These findings contribute to the knowledge base regarding the effectiveness of 3D printing technology in guided endodontics and can help to identify the most suitable materials and techniques for this application.

Kermeoğlu, Fatma; Sayıner, Serkan; Şehirli, Ahmet Özer; Savtekin, Gökçe; Aksoy, Umut
The purpose of the study was to investigate the therapeutic effects of α-lipoic acid (ALA) on an induced-acute pulpitis model in rats. Twenty-four Wistar albino rats were randomly divided into three groups: control, induced-acute pulpitis (PULP) and PULP + ALA groups. In the PULP and PULP + ALA groups, the crowns of the maxillary left incisors were removed horizontally. All exposed pulp tissues were treated with 5 µL LPS solution. In the PULP + ALA group, the rats were treated intraperitoneally with a single dose of ALA (100 mg/kg). The rats were sacrificed 24 h after pulp injury, and the trunk blood and pulp samples were collected and then determined using ELISA assay kits. TNF-α, IL-1β, MMP-1 and MMP-2 levels in the serum and pulp tissues were considerably higher in the PULP group than the control group (p < 0.01–0.001). In the PULP + ALA group, TNF-α, IL-1β, MMP-1 and MMP-2 levels in the serum and pulp tissues decreased significantly compared to the PULP group (p < 0.05–0.001). ALA decreases pro-inflammatory mediators and proteolytic enzymes, which might relieve acute inflammation.

Yigit, Fatih; Aliyev, Fuzuli
This study investigates the short- and long-run nexus between the volatility index of VIX and sovereign credit risk represented by CDS spread in emerging markets, namely Turkey, China, Russia, Brazil, and Mexico. The emerging markets are at the center of investors’ interest due to high return opportunities. The relationship between volatility and sovereign credit risk has been studied many times via linear models. However, financial series exhibit asymmetric dynamics, as volatility clustering, excess kurtosis, and others. Thus, we use nonlinear autoregressive distributed lags (NARDL) analysis to capture nonlinear relations between the volatility and the sovereign credit risks of these countries by using daily data from 04.01.2010 to 29.11.2019. The bounds test of the NARDL model confirms the cointegration between VIX and CDS spreads of the countries under study. The analysis of estimated NARDL parameters shows that negative shocks of the volatility index have a long-lasting impact on CDS spreads. Chinese CDS spread are more sensitive to VIX index changes in the short run. The effect of a decrease in volatility on Russian CDS spread is higher than the effect of an increase. Turkish and Brazilian CDS spreads are more reactive to increase in the VIX, whereas Mexican CDS is less sensitive. These findings show that investors, arbitrageurs and speculators should consider global indicators when taking a position on sovereign bonds of emerging markets.

Aim: The aim of this ex vivo study was to compare the amount of debris extruded during retreatment using stainless steel hand files (Hedstroem files) and R-Endo Nickel Titanium rotary instruments. Methodology: Eighty single-rooted freshly extracted human mandibular premolars were divided into two groups consisting of 40 teeth each. Retreatment was performed with R-Endo (Micro-Mega, Besançon, France) and Hedstroem files (Dentsply, Maillefer, Ballaigeus, Switzerland). The experimental teeth were obturated with lateral condensation technique. Then, 1.5-mL Eppendorf tubes were used to collecting the material that was extruded during preparation by subtracting post-instrumentation weight from pre-instrumentation weight. Results: There were significant differences in the amount of debris extruded between the groups (p<0.001). The amount of apical extrusion in the R-Endo group was determined to be less than in the hand instrumentation group. Conclusion: Within the limitations of this study, it might be concluded that all tested instruments resulted in apical extrusion of debris. During endodontic retreatment procedures, the hand files extruded a significantly higher amount of debris than the R-Endo.

Marzo, Roy R.; Shrestha, Rajeev; Sapkota, Binaya; Acharya, Swosti; Shrestha, Nita; Pokharel, Mandip; Ahmad, Absar; Patalinghug, Mark E.; Rahman, Farzana; Salim, Zahir R.
IntroductionSeveral studies exhibited varying reports of perception toward vaccine effectiveness, vaccine hesitancy, and acceptance of COVID-19 vaccines. As this fluctuated with evidence generation, this study explored the perception toward vaccine effectiveness in rural and urban communities among various countries. MethodsA cross-sectional study was conducted online from April to August 2021 using convenience sampling among people from different countries approved by the Asia Metropolitan University Medical Research and Ethics. We adapted the questionnaire from the World Health Organization's (WHO) survey tool and guidance on COVID-19. The logistic regression models were performed to show perception toward vaccine effectiveness. ResultsA total of 5,673 participants responded to the online survey. Overall, 64% of participants agreed that the vaccine effectively controlled viral spread, and 23% agreed that there was no need for vaccination if others were vaccinated. Males had 14% higher odds of believing that there was no need for vaccination. Less social media users had 39% higher odds of developing the belief that there is no need for vaccination than all other people vaccinated. ConclusionPeople's perceptions toward vaccine acceptance have fluctuated with the information flow in various social media and the severity of COVID-19 cases. Therefore, it is important that the current scenario of peoples' perception toward vaccine acceptance and determinants affecting the acceptance are explored to promote the vaccination approach against COVID-19 prevention and transmission effectively.

IntroductionIt is clear that medical science has advanced much in the past few decades with the development of vaccines and this is even true for the novel coronavirus outbreak. By late 2020, COVID-19 vaccines were starting to be approved by national and global regulators, and across 2021, there was a global rollout of several vaccines. Despite rolling out vaccination programs successfully, there has been a cause of concern regarding uptake of vaccine due to vaccine hesitancy. In tackling the vaccine hesitancy and improving the overall vaccination rates, digital health literacy (DHL) could play a major role. Therefore, the aim of this study is to assess the digital health literacy and its relevance to the COVID-19 vaccination. MethodsAn internet-based cross-sectional survey was conducted from April to August 2021 using convenience sampling among people from different countries. Participants were asked about their level of intention to the COVID-19 vaccine. Participants completed the Digital Health Literacy Instrument (DHLI), which was adapted in the context of the COVID Health Literacy Network. Cross-tabulation and logistic regression were used for analysis purpose. ResultsOverall, the mean DHL score was 35.1 (SD = 6.9, Range = 12-48). The mean DHL score for those who answered Yes for support for national vaccination schedule was 36.1 (SD 6.7) compared to 32.5 (SD 6.8) for those who either answered No or Don't know. Factors including country, place of residence, education, employment, and income were associated with the intention for vaccination. Odds of vaccine intention were higher in urban respondents (OR-1.46; C.I.-1.30-1.64) than in rural respondents. Further, higher competency in assessing the relevance of online information resulted in significantly higher intention for vaccine uptake. ConclusionPriority should be given to improving DHL and vaccination awareness programs targeting rural areas, lower education level, lower income, and unemployed groups.

The disruptions in this era have caused a leap forward in information technology being applied in organizations to create a competitive advantage. In particular, we see this in tourism services, as they provide the best solution and prompt responses to create value in experiences and enhance the sustainability of tourism. Since scheduling is required in tourism service applications, it is regarded as a crucial topic in production management and combinatorial optimization. Since workshop scheduling difficulties are regarded as extremely difficult and complex, efforts to discover optimal or near-ideal solutions are vital. The aim of this study was to develop a hybrid genetic algorithm by combining a genetic algorithm and a simulated annealing algorithm with a gradient search method to the optimize complex processes involved in solving tourism service problems, as well as to compare the traditional genetic algorithms employed in smart city case studies in Thailand. A hybrid genetic algorithm was developed, and the results could assist in solving scheduling issues related to the sustainability of the tourism industry with the goal of lowering production requirements. An operation-based representation was employed to create workable schedules that can more effectively handle the given challenge. Additionally, a new knowledge-based operator was created within the context of function evaluation, which focuses on the features of the problem to utilize machine downtime to enhance the quality of the solution. To produce the offspring, a machine-based crossover with order-based precedence preservation was suggested. Additionally, a neighborhood search strategy based on simulated annealing was utilized to enhance the algorithm's capacity for local exploitation, and to broaden its usability. Numerous examples were gathered from the Thailand Tourism Department to demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed approach. The proposed hybrid genetic algorithm's computational results show good performance. We found that the hybrid genetic algorithm can effectively generate a satisfactory tourism service, and its performance is better than that of the genetic algorithm.

Suanpang, Pannee; Niamsorn, Chawalin; Pothipassa, Pattanaphong; Chunhapataragul, Thinnagorn; Netwong, Titiya; Jermsittiparsert, Kittisak
The metaverse is an innovation that has created the recent phenomenon of new tourism experiences from a virtual reality of a smart tourism destination. However, the existing metaverse platform demonstrated that the technology is still difficult to develop, as the service provider did not disclose the internal mechanisms to developers, and it was a closed system, which could not use or share the user's data across platforms. The aim of this paper was to design and develop an open metaverse platform called the extensible metaverse, which would allow new developers to independently develop the capabilities of the metaverse system. The acquisition of this new technology was conducted through requirements analysis, then the analysis and design of the new system architecture, followed by the implementation, and the evaluation of the system by the users. The results found that the extended metaverse was divided into three tiers that created labels, characters, and virtual objects. Furthermore, the linking tier combined the 3D elements, and the deployment tier compiled the results of the link to use all three parts by using the Blender program, Godot Engine, and PHP + WebGL as their respective key mechanisms. This system was tested in Suphan Buri province, Thailand, which was evaluated by 428 users. The results of the metaverse satisfaction, created tourism experience, and overall satisfaction of the variation of the satisfaction of using the metaverse were 86.0%, 79.7%, and 92.9%, respectively. The relative Chi-square (chi(2)/df) of 1.253 indicated that the model was suitable. The comparative fit index (CFI) was 0.984, the goodness-of-fit index (GFI) was 0.998, and the model based on the research hypothesis was consistent with the empirical data. The root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA) was 0.024. In conclusion, the extended metaverse is more flexible than other platforms and also creates the user's satisfaction and tourism experience in the smart destination to support sustainable tourism.
