Orofacial clefts are a common birth defect characterized by involvement of the nasal and oral structures. Several classifications of orofacial clefts have been proposed in the aim of generalizing rational criteria allowing communication and exchange between the different practitioners. Among these classifications, the classification of Beumer has got surgical and prosthodontic interest (making an orthopedic plate).The authors propose to update this classification by modifying it and proposing a class that did not exist in the original classification. This modification seems important to us as a complement to this classification.

The review considers the first attempt in the history of Russian economic thought to give a detailed analysis of informal institutions (IF). It recognizes that in general it was successful: the reader gets acquainted with the original classification of institutions (including informal ones) and their genesis. According to the reviewer the best achievement of the author is his interdisciplinary approach to the study of problems and, moreover, his bias on the achievements of social psychology because the model of human behavior in the economic mainstream is rather primitive. The book makes evident that namely this model limits the ability of economists to analyze IF. The reviewer also shares the author’s position that in the analysis of the IF genesis the economists should highlight the uncertainty and reject economic determinism. Further discussion of IF is hardly possible without referring to this book.

Piscine orthoreovirus (PRV) belongs to the family Reoviridae and has been described mainly in association with salmonid infections. The genome of PRV consists of about 23,600 bp, with 10 segments of double-stranded RNA, classified as small (S1 to S4), medium (M1, M2 and M3) and large (L1, L2 and L3); these range approximately from 1000 bp (segment S4) to 4000 bp (segment L1). How the genetic variation among PRV strains affects the virulence for salmonids is still poorly understood. The aim of this study was to describe the molecular phylogeny of PRV based on an extensive sequence analysis of the S1 and M2 segments of PRV available in the GenBank database to date (May 2020). The analysis was extended to include new PRV sequences for S1 and M2 segments. In addition, subgenotype classifications were assigned to previously published unclassified sequences. It was concluded that the phylogenetic trees are consistent with the original classification using the PRV genomic segment S1, which differentiates PRV into two major genotypes, I and II, and each of these into two subgenotypes, designated as Ia and Ib, and IIa and IIb, respectively. Moreover, some clusters of country- and host-specific PRV subgenotypes were observed in the subset of sequences used. This work strengthens the subgenotype classification of PRV based on the S1 segment and can be used to enhance research on the virulence of PRV.

The aim of this research was to identify students' preconceptions concerning statistical association in contingency tables. An experimental study was carried out with 213 preuniversity students, and it was based on students' responses to a written questionnaire including 2 × 2, 2 × 3, and 3 × 3 contingency tables. In this article, the students' judgments of association and solution strategies are compared with the findings of previous psychological research on 2 × 2 contingency tables. We also present an original classification of students' strategies, from a mathematical point of view. Correspondence analysis is used to show the effect of item task variables on students' strategies. Finally, we include a qualitative analysis of the strategies of 51 students, which has served to characterize three misconceptions concerning statistical association.

AbstractThe Mortorum Libri of Milano (1452-1801) represent the first register in Europe based on the daily recording of the dead and detailed information about the social ties of decease people.Mortorum Libri’s protocol is the first example of a monitoring and prevention chain based on ethical and juridical individual responsibility.The causes of death were codified according to the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10) to relate the original classification with the present one.This study has a particular reference to the Registers of the 15th century and analyzes the mortality in 1480 as an example of the database application in epidemiology.

Abstract. Introduction Analysis of publications on primary hip replacement shows lower survival rates in patients with acetabular injuries. With the lack of a unified system for assessing post-traumatic acetabular deformities, authors tend to use the available classifications of acute pelvic trauma (AO/ ASIF, Young & Burgess, Tile, etc.) and acetabular osteolysis (AAOS, DGOT, Gross and Saleh, Paprosky), which we think can be inappropriate with the classifying systems meant for different patterns of acetabular deficiency. Material and methods CT scans of 117 patients with posttraumatic acetabular deformities were reviewed prior to total hip replacement (THR) performed for posttraumatic grade III coxarthrosis. The displacement of acetabular walls was determined with the measurements tabulated and analyzed. Results An original "ASPID" classification of post-traumatic deformities based on the findings obtained was offered with use of three assessment criteria: localization of the deformity, extent of displacement and the integrity of the pelvic ring. The ASPID classification can be used for the localization of the deformity with anterior (A), superior (S), posterior (P) and inner acetabular walls (I) to be identified. Measurements of displacement ranging 0-5 mm suggests grade 0 displacement; 6-15 mm, grade 1 displacement and greater than 15 mm, grade 2 displacement. The integrity of the pelvic ring evaluated from the involvement side as D0 suggests maintained pelvic integrity and D1, broken pelvic integrity. An acetabular hardware would be marked with 'H'. Conclusion ASPID classification is easy to use and has shown to be practical for planning of primary THR after acetabular fracture.

Purpose This paper aims to investigate the different patterns of organizational behavioural responses to major incidents and develop an original classification of these patterns. Design/methodology/approach An extensive literature review was made to investigate the different patterns of behavioural responses to major incidents and then to develop an original classification of these patterns. Several sources of information, such as case studies, technical reports, academic journal articles and organizational internal reports were used. Findings Organizations respond differently to major incidents. This was clear from the different behavioural patterns investigated and identified. Behavioural patterns determine levels of resilience and ability of organizations to overcome and ultimately survive major incidents. Practical implications To promote effective and organized behavioural response patterns to major incidents and improve consistency of responses across the organization, relevant authorities should demonstrate to all private and public enterprises the significance of effective behavioural responses, thus enabling them to better respond to various potential emergencies. Originality/value A number of models of human behaviour have been introduced in the literature to understand how people respond to emergency situations. They each take a different perspective on human behaviour but no single theory has emerged as the leading paradigm. This highlights the complexity of understanding human behaviour in such situations and the need for a better classification of behavioural patterns. To the author’s knowledge, this is one of very few studies to investigate, identify and categorize behavioural response patterns to major incidents. This research is expected to be of a substantial value for those interested in improving organizational behaviour during major incidents, as well as those interested in improving organizational resilience.

This paper introduces and applies a new metric, on the space of bi-infinite strings (sequences), to the linear cellular automata classification approach of R. Gilman. The metric presented herein is a generalization of the metric used in the classification work of Gilman and it is shown that those original classification results also hold with this generalized metric.

SUMMARY We have argued that the ‘laryngeals’ reconstructed for PIE were vocalic in nature. This is in line with Saussure’s original classification of the ‘laryngeals’ as vowels but runs counter to the prevalent modern view that they were fricatives. According to the ‘vocalic’ hypothesis that we propose, the ‘laryngeals’ formed a subsystem of the PIE vowel inventory, and were characterized by metrical weakness. This analysis draws upon contemporary phonological understanding of the interaction between a segment’s position within syllable structure and its phonetic realization. The hypothesis allows phonetically plausible accounts to be formulated for each of the observed developments in the daughter languages. Moreover, it is more credible from a typological perspective than any of the proposals involving fricatives. RÉSUMÉ Nous avons soutenu que les ‘laryngales’ reconstruites pour le proto-indo-européen étaient de forme vocalique. Ceci est en accord avec l’hypothèse de Saussure où les ‘laryngales’ étaient classées voyelles mais va à l’encontre de l’opinion moderne qu’elles étaient fricatives. Selon l’hypothèse ‘vocalique’ que nous proposons les ‘laryngales’ formaient un sous-système de l’inventaire vocalique proto-indo-européen characterisé par la faiblesse metrique. Cette analyse fait appel à la compréhension phonologique contemporaine de l’interaction entre la position d’un segment dans la syllabe et sa réalisation phonétique. Cette hypothèse permet des explications raisonnables pour chaque développement observé dans les langues filles. D’ailleurs, dans une perspective typologique cette hypothèse est plus croyable que les systèmes qui utilisent les fricatives. ZUSAMMENFASSUNG Unserer Auffassung nach waren Laryngale, die für das Urindogermanische rekonstruiert worden sind, vokalischer Natur. Diese Auffassung stimmt mit Saussures ursprünglicher Klassifikation, nach der Laryngale Vokale sind, überein, widerspricht aber der gegenwärtig vorherrschenden Annahme, nach der es sich um Frikative handelt. Gemäß der hier vorgestellten Hypothese bildeten die Laryngale eine Unterklasse der urindogermanischen Vokale, und zeichneten sich durch metrische Schwäche aus. Dieser Analyse liegt ein gegenwärtig postuliertes phonologisches Verständnis der Wechselwirkung zwischen der Lage eines Segmentes innerhalb der Silbenstruktur und seiner phonetischen Realisierung zugrunde. Auf der Basis dieser Hypothese können phonetisch plausible Entwicklungen in den Tochtersprachen erklärt werden. Desweiteren erscheint der hier vorgestellte Ansatz auch von einem typologischen Ansatz überzeugender als andere, die für Frikative argumentieren.
