Authors: Andrijauskiene Meda , Dumciuviene Daiva , Stundziene Alina
Published: October 2021

Research background: Seeking to ensure competitiveness in the global market, the EU is constantly improving its innovation policy. Compared to other EU initiatives, the Framework Programs for Research and Innovation (FPs) act as the main instrument with the longest history and the largest budget to boost member states' innovation performance. Despite the initial presumptions that these financial inflows should bring positive and constructive effects, the results significantly diverge across the countries with highly uneven and incoherent progress. Therefore, complex and reliable tools must be adopted to evaluate the long-term influence of EU investment and the reasons which distort the innovation performance in separate member states.

Purpose of the article: The purpose of this article is to evaluate the influence of EU investment on its member states? innovation performance by using a redeveloped national innovative capacity framework and including technological, non-technological and commercial innovative output.

Methods: Panel unit root tests were used to assess the time series stationarity. Autoregressive distributed lag models helped in calculating the long-term influence of EU investment on member states? innovation performance. Finally, by employing dummies, it was analysed how this influence varied over time and across different countries.

Findings & value added: The findings provide evidence that EU investment exerts positive long-term influence on the technological innovative output proxied as total, business and higher education institutions? patent applications, as well as product and process innovations. The effects were also positive on trademarks and marketing, and organisational innovations. However, small but negative influence was found in the case of patent applications by the government sector and the exports of hi-tech products and knowledge-intensive services. These insights may serve in the designing process of the specific instruments and the future innovation policies, which would bring the maximum benefit for the society and economy.

Authors:   Department of Community Medicine, Grant Medical College and JJ Hospital, Mumbai, Maharashtra, India, Parve Sneha
Published: October 2021

Introduction: Rabies is a viral disease endemic in more than 150 countries and territories with highest exposure in Asia and Africa. It is found in all continent except Antarctica. Countries which are not at risk for travel related diseases like rabies, traveller’s going there do not seek medical advice before travelling. In parts where rabies is still a problem, treatment may be in accessible. Methodology: It was OPD based cross sectional study in Adult Vaccination Centre at tertiary care institute. From July to September 2020, the data was collected. Pretested questionnaire was assessed by interview method. Results: We found that maximum travellers 69% were in the age group less than 30 years with mean age being 26. Only 10% of traveller had history of animal bite. Among them 52% had dog bite followed by 47% cat bite while 53% had bleeding. 52% had not used any pre hospital procedure after bite. 21% had applied turmeric, 15% applied slaked lime, while 10% had washed the wound with water and soap. 31% travellers travelled to South Africa. 97% travellers have the idea that dog bite can transmit the disease. Conclusion: Rabies pre-exposure vaccination should be offered to individuals traveling regularly to international destinations and who are at high risk of exposure to potentially rabid animal attacks.

Introduction: The unprecedented COVID-19 outbreak has now spread to every nook of the world. It has contributed to an enormous adverse impact globally. Persons of every age group are likely to get infected but elderly people or those with comorbidities could develop a more serious illness. Objectives: To describe the clinico-demographic characteristics, various risk factors, and COVID-19 related social stigma among 135 hospitalised patients in north India and to find an association by comparing it with comorbidity. Methods: The present study is an observational analytical study carried out on 135 patients with RT-PCR confirmed cases admitted in a tertiary care hospital India aged between 15-79 years. Data were collected in a validated questionnaire specially designed for COVID-19 by National Centre for Disease Control (NCDC). Result: A total of 135 patients were included (median age, 40 years [interquartile range {IQR}, 54-29; range, 15-79 years]; 62.9% Male). The presenting symptoms at the time of admission were fever (57.0%), cough (43.0%), fatigue (42.2%), and breathlessness (28.1%). The most prevalent comorbidities were hypertension (20%), diabetes (14.1%), thyroid disorder (6.7%), cardiovascular diseases (3.7%), and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (4.4%) and 23.7% patients reported having at least one comorbidity. Patients without pre-existing diseases have more social stigma as compared to patients with comorbidities. Twenty eight percent reported use of AYUSH therapies as prophylactic measures. Conclusion: This study describes the clinico-demographic profile, baseline comorbidities, and social stigma associated with COVID-19 patients. Patients having comorbidity have less stigma, however, the family of both the groups were worried and supportive.
An Epidemiological Study on Risk Factors of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Authors:   Assistant Professor, Department of Pulmonary, Critical Care and Sleep Medicine, VMMC and Safdarjung Hospital, New Delhi, India, Ish Pranav
Published: October 2021

Introduction: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide and is expected to increase in the coming decades due to increasing air pollution. In a country like India, it is a challenge to control the growing incidence of COPD. For this, it is imperative to understand the various risk factors that lead to the development of COPD including smoking and the ever-worsening environmental air pollution levels. Material and Methods: This prospective case-control study was carried out at the out-patient clinic of pulmonary medicine at our tertiary care centre. Clinical severity data, demographic characteristics, smoking history, and particulate matter (PM) 2.5 levels at the residence of the patients were recorded. A total of 182 cases of COPD and 365 controls were taken. Result: COPD was found to be common among males (69.2%), among the factory workers, drivers and roadside vendors and in elderly age groups. COPD was found to be associated with exposure to active and passive smoking (p < 0.05). Exposure to dust, fumes, and smoke at the workplace was significantly more prevalent among the COPD patients (13.2%) than the control group (2.7%). Besides, 61.5% of the COPD patients were residing in the area with PM 2.5 levels > 60μg/m3 which was significantly greater than the controls (44.9%). Conclusion: The main risk factor for COPD is exposure to active and passive tobacco smoking. Other environmental factors such as exposure to dust, fumes at the workplace and home are also associated with COPD. Level of PM 2.5 > 60 μg/m3 is associated with an increased risk of COPD. Thus, the environmental history of residence in Delhi or a city with high AQI is significant in evaluating a COPD patient. It is important to understand the contribution of these risk factors as curbing and curtailing them can help prevent and control the growing burden of COPD.

ABSTRACT

Pulmonary Tuberculosis or Tuberculosis is an infectious disease caused by the bacterium mycobacterium tuberculosis or commonly called TB bacteria. Most of these bacteria often attack the respiratory system namely the lungs, but this bacterium can also attack other

bodily organ system. A long period of tuberculosis treatment result in some patients getting bored, due to the lack of knowledge of patients and families about the treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis. Educational media through the Tetun language booklet is an interesting design because in the booklet it contains sentences and images that are easy to understand and use the local language that is Tetun, so that it can motivate patients and families to read in order to increase knowledge and change attitudes of both families and patients in maintaining health and improving the quality of a healty life. Methods : using one group pre-post test design. Research Instrument : Questionnaire about family knowledge and attitudes in the prevention of pulmonary TB

 

Result: Family knowledge increased before being given a booklet at the level of good family knowledge with a score of 92,% to 100 % after being given a booklet. Family attitudes also increased before being given a booklet at a sufficient level of family attitudes with a score 69,8% to 72,6% after being given a booklet. Wilcoxon signed test showed a significant increase in knowledge and family attitudes in preventing pulmonary TB transmission. Conclusion: TB education through the tetum language media booklet is effective to increasing knowledge and changing  family attitudes in preventing TB transmission.

Administrative-legal regulation of proactive forms of public administration: current state and prospects
Authors: Mazein Artem Vladimirovich
Published: October 2021

This article examines the legal regulation of proactive form of exercising administrative activity. In the domestic practice, proactive activity became widespread in 2019–2020. Leaning on the analysis of scientific literature, the author underlines that the content of the principle of proactivity, defined in the existing normative legal acts, reflects the well-known scientific approaches. As a result of the content analysis of normative legal acts, the conclusion is drawn that the principle of proactivity is currently applied in the spheres of social security, public health, tax administration, and state control. The author offers to extend application of the principle of proactivity to the spheres of enforcement of public order, uninterrupted supply of public utilities, and road management. The article summarizes the provisions of legal acts that regulate proactive administrative activity and proposes the structure of elements of its legal consolidation. Among the elements that should be defined by law, the author suggests to include the subjects and objects of activity, as well as the content of administrative action, including technologies and instruments that ensure proactive administrative impact. The normative legal acts that may establish the corresponding elements are the administrative regulations for ensuring state (municipal) services. At the time of carrying out the research, out of 103,000 administrative regulations effective on the regional and municipal levels, only 575 ( 0.6%) indicate the ability or inability of proactive rendering of services. The conclusion is made that in the future the number of such legal acts would increase.

Authors: Choki Miss , Boonpratham Supatchai , Luppanapornlarp Suwannee
Published: October 2021

Objectives:

The objective of this study was to find the cephalometric measurements that correlate with the visual perception.

Materials and Methods:

A total of 250 lateral cephalograms of patients from the year 2016 to 2018 were hand traced and analyzed. Thirty-six hard- and soft-tissue measurements were obtained from the lateral cephalometric analysis. Silhouettes obtained from cephalometric films were rated by 10 orthodontists based on their level of convexity. For each sample, the rating of visual perception was correlated with all the cephalometric (hard and soft) measurements.

Results:

ANB, AF-BF, L1-NB (mm), overjet, anterior maxillary alveolar height, posterior maxillary alveolar height, lower lip to E plane, and H angle were positively correlated with the visual perception. On the contrary, Pg. to N perpendicular and Pg. to NB (mm) were negatively correlated with the visual perception. However, the measurements in the vertical dimensions did not have any significant correlations with visual perception. H angle showed a higher correlation with visual perception than the nasolabial angle, facial contour angle, and lower lip to E plane.

Conclusion:

The agreement between objective cephalometric measurements and subjective visual perception was less than expected. In general, only 27% of the cephalometric measurements had a significant correlation with visual perception. Therefore, orthodontic treatment planning based solely on cephalometric analysis can result in unsatisfactory treatment outcomes. An inclusion of subjective measures such as visual perception in orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning is necessary.

Authors: Gumus Esra Bolat , Yorgancioğlu Eda Hoşgör
Published: October 2021

Objectives:

The aim of this qualitative study was to examine orthodontic patients’ thoughts and experiences about the invisible orthodontic treatment options – lingual braces and Invisalign – through the analysis of Twitter posts’ content.

Materials and Methods:

A software program was written for the data collection. The program consecutively collected the tweets posted over an 8-month period from Twitter’s publicly accessible database. Tweets that were written in the English language and contained any of the four keywords “Invisalign,” “lingualorthodontics,” “lingualbraces,” and “invisiblebraces” were collected. The tweets that included irrelevant or incoherent posts, professional advertisements, unclear/not applicable content, and reposts were excluded from the study. Two authors, with different experiences, independently read, and analyzed the tweets. Each applicable tweet was classified into one of the three categories: Positive, negative, and neutral for two study groups (Invisalign and lingual braces). Pearson Chi-square test was used to analyze the negative and positive tweet rates of the groups.

Results:

1176 of 2407 tweets were selected as applicable and analyzed by the authors. There was a statistically significant very good agreement between the two observers (Kappa = 0.933, P < 0.001). The negative comment rate (39%) and neutral comment rate (31.1%) in the lingual group were statistically higher than the Invisalign group (27.2% and 21.7%, respectively; P < 0.001). The positive comment rate in the Invisalign group was significantly higher (51.1%) compared to the lingual group (29.9%, P < 0.001).

Conclusion:

Orthodontic patients use social media to share their experiences and feelings about their treatment process. The applicable Tweet number and the positive Tweet rate in the Invisalign group were higher than the lingual braces group.

Published: October 2021

Objectives:

The aim of the present study is to evaluate the accuracy and reliability of the information provided in the videos about the clear aligner on the Youtube video platform, an internet information source.

Materials and Methods:

A video search was performed on the Youtube video platform using three keywords determined with the Google Trends application. After the videos were ranked based on their view counts, a total of 75 videos were analyzed, 47 being the first for each term. After applying the exclusion criteria (repetitive content, no audio content or title information, irrelevant to the topic, only promotional content, duration over 15 min, and addressing other orthodontic treatments), the remaining 47 videos were evaluated. Regarding the videos, the following parameters were recorded: View count, number of likes, number of dislikes, number of comments, video duration, and days since the uploaded date. A scoring system consisting of seven parameters was used to classify the video content quality as low and high. The video information and quality index were utilized to evaluate the quality of the videos universally. Statistical analyses were performed with Stata/IC computer program using Shapiro–Wilks, Kruskall–Wallis, Mann–Whitney U, and linear regression (Backward method) tests. Statistical significance value was set atP< 0.05.

Results:

Evaluation of the videos based on their upload source revealed that 27 videos were downloaded from individuals, ten videos from doctors and ten videos from commercial sources, and the number of subscribers to these sources varied significantly (P< 0.05). Evaluation of the videos based on the information provided, revealed that 32 videos had poor quality, ten videos had moderate quality and five videos had good quality information content, and the video durations varied significantly (P< 0.05). It was seen that of the 75 videos viewed, only 10 (13.3%) provided information of moderate-good quality. The number of likes was found to be the parameter that significantly affects the view count (P< 0.05).

Conclusion:

YouTube videos prove insufficient as a source of information on orthodontic treatment with clear aligner. Health-care professionals should be aware of online platforms to ensure that patients can access accurate information.

На примере сейсмического события, обладающего магнитудой и механизмом глубокофокусного землетрясения у берегов Фиджи 19.08.2018, теоретически исследована связь параметров источника цунами с глубиной землетрясения. Показано, что сильные глубокофокусные землетрясения способны создавать обширные области косейсмических деформаций дна, размер которых сопоставим с баротропным радиусом деформации Россби. Волны цунами, формируемые такими источниками, обладают необычайно большой длиной и поэтому подвержены влиянию силы Кориолиса. Это влияние может варьироваться от существенного в высоких широтах до малозначительного в приэкваториальных районах. Методом численного моделирования исследовано влияние силы Кориолиса на слабые волны цунами, вызванные Фиджийским землетрясением 2018 г.

Using the example of a seismic event with the same magnitude and mechanism as for the 2018 Fiji deep-focus earthquake the relationship between the parameters of a tsunami source and the depth of an earthquake was theoretically investigated. It is shown that strong deep-focus earthquakes are capable of creating extensive areas of co-seismic deformations for the ocean bottom, the size of which is comparable to the barotropic Rossby deformation radius. Tsunami waves generated by such sources have an unusually large length, and therefore they are subject to the influence of the Coriolis force. The influence of the Coriolis force on the weak tsunami waves caused by the 2018 Fiji earthquake has been studied by numerical simulation. It was found that for a virtual sea-level station located to the south of the source at latitude of 40S, the amplitude of the leading tsunami wave under the influence of the Coriolis force decreased by ≈ 30%. For virtual stations located at the equator or at latitude of 20S, taking into account the Coriolis force changes the amplitude of the waves by no more than 10%. For stations located in the equatorial zone, the effect of delaying of the manifestation of differences in sea-level fluctuations, calculated with and without Coriolis force, as compared with the entry of the leading tsunami wave was discovered. A physical interpretation of the observed delay effect is proposed.

The application of numerical simulation methods based on the solution of the full three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations for modelling of wave propagation on the water surface requires the construction of a grid model containing countable nodes throughout the entire volume of water medium. Insufficient grid resolution leads to insufficient detailing of the fields of velocity and pressure, as well as volume fraction of the liquid, which increases the numerical diffusion of the method and, ultimately, leads to an underestimation of oscillation amplitudes of the medium. A large time step also results in a “blurring” of the solution and significantly reduces its stability, especially when using the schemes which compress the front of the media interface. This paper presents the results of an assessment of acceptable grid sizes and time steps expressed in dimensionless parameters with respect to the wave parameters necessary to ensure accuracy of the solution sufficient for geophysical applications. The estimate is given for the method of calculating three-dimensional multiphase flows with a free surface based on solving the Navier-Stokes equations in a one-velocity approximation based on a completely implicit connection between velocity and pressure using the finite volume method. The finite volume method for the numerical solution of the Navier-Stokes equations is implemented for use on arbitrary unstructured grids. The methodology for estimation of numerical diffusion of the calculation method is proposed. This estimation is expressed as a percentage of the wave amplitude decrease at the distance equal to the one wavelength. In turn the methodology is based on the parameters entered to estimate the acceptable grid sizes and time step for the calculation method. Based on the described methodology, the results of the estimation of the grid resolution in the horizontal and vertical directions, the estimation of the time step, and the evaluation of the influence of the discretization scheme of the convective term are presented.

Published: October 2021

Im Fokus des Beitrags stehen die Fragen, wie Care Leaver sprich Jugendliche und junge Erwachsene, die das Heim verlassen haben, den Sozialisationskontext stationäre Erziehungshilfe wahrnehmen und welche fachlichen und fachpolitischen Schlussfolgerungen sich hieraus ziehen lassen. Zum einen wird aufgezeigt, inwiefern die stationäre Einrichtung Heim von den Befragten als ein von der Aussenwelt separierter Kontext erlebt wird. Zum anderen wird diskutiert, welche Bedeutung die spezifische Kontur und Strukturierung dieses Sozialisationskontextes Heim auf die Lebenslage Leaving Care hat.

Die Befunde der Studie geben Impulse für eine lebensweltorientierte Weiterentwicklung der Praxis der Heimerziehung und für die Unterstützung von Leaving-Care-Prozessen, die das Leben „in Care“ stärker mit Prozessen des Leaving Care verknüpft.

In 2013, the Irish Government published its National Disability Strategy Implementation Plan 2013-2015. As part of this strategy, a number of goals were set around participation, including job access for people with disabilities. This specific objective recommended a number of actions, including the commitment to publish a comprehensive employment strategy (CES) for people with disabilities. This strategy, the Comprehensive Employment Strategy for People with Disabilities, was published in 2015 for the period 2015-2024. The objective of this strategy, which is cross-governmental, is to support people with disabilities in accessing the labour market. Building on existing actions in the CES, the National Disability Authority (NDA) commissioned the Economic and Social Research Institute (ESRI) to undertake quantitative research into the workplace skills and abilities of persons with disabilities. To undertake this research, a number of nationally representative data sources were utilised to characterise the skills/educational endowments and gaps among persons with disabilities compared to those without. Specifically, data from the Survey on Income and Living Conditions (SILC), the Programme for the International Assessment of Adult Competencies (PIAAC), the Census of Population, and the European Union Statistics on Income and Living Conditions (EU-SILC) were examined. Where the data permitted, we differentiated those with a disability by type, everyday difficulties (e.g. difficulty dressing), and/or severity level. We also examined the employment characteristics of people with disabilities compared to persons without, and investigated the impact of having a disability on an individual’s employment prospects. What follows is a summary of the principal findings from this research, including some discussion on future directions.

In order to achieve an optimal fit between the crown and the margin formed below the gingival margin, a good mapping of the space behind the margin is required. This can be accomplished in a variety of ways. At various stages, general dentists and prosthodontists apply gum retraction across the board on a daily basis. Gum retraction was first described in 1941 by Thompson. Today, a large assortment of retraction cords is presented on the material market. One of the main requirements forhigh-precision impressions is a clear display of the gingival sulcus around the abutment teeth. To obtain high-quality impressions, it is necessary to ensure the unimpeded position of the impression material in this area, which is ensured by retraction. With the generalized form of increased abrasion of the hard tissues of the teeth, all teeth or most of them are subject to restoration of the anatomical shape, therefore it is important to choose a retraction method that would not only allow obtaining ahigh-quality impression, but also minimize its negative effect. Since 1975, PubMed and Google Scholar have searched for studies on gingival tissue management prior to impression creation on fixed dentures. The conclusions were extracted and summarized by us. Gingival retraction methods are divided intomechanical, chemical or surgical types. This article discusses the various methods of gingival retraction for subsequent double-layer impressions.
