Authors: Yasmine Allyssa Farisa , Gusnita Chazizah
Published: June 2024

This research discusses the phenomenon of students' sexist jokes as a form of normalization of verbal sexual disclosure. The purpose of this research is to find out how students can normalize sexual verbal displays wrapped in sexist jokes. The research approach used is qualitative descriptive research in order to obtain comprehensive and in-depth data. Primary data in this research was obtained from the results of interviews conducted with 6 (six) informants, all of whom were students at Bdudi Luhur University. Meanwhile, secondary data is obtained from books, scientific works, theses, online articles, and others that are relevant to the research used as a reference in writing. The results of interviews conducted with informants were explained by researchers using neutralization theory introduced by Sykes and Matza (1957). The results obtained from this research are that male students as perpetrators of sexist jokes normalize the act of sexual disclosure using the neutralization techniques of The Denial of Responsibility: in telling sexist jokes the perpetrator only follows other friends; The Denial of Injury: finds the perpetrator that the victim enjoyed the sexist joke he made; The Denial of Victim: the perpetrator will make sexist jokes at victims who speak poorly and look bad; The Condemnation of The Condemners: the victim still enjoys and does not feel hurt by the jokes they make so they will not think about the views and input of other people; Appeal to Higher Loyalties: the perpetrator also believes that sexist jokes are a sign of closeness in a friendship.

Published: June 2024

Training and accurately evaluating task- specific chatbots is an important research area for Large Language Models (LLMs). These models can be developed for general purposes with the ability to handle multiple tasks, or fine-tuned for specific applications such as education or customer support. In this study, Mistral 7B, Llama-2 and Phi-2 models are utilized which have proven success on various benchmarks, including question answering. The models were fine-tuned using QLoRa with limited information gathered from course catalogs. The fine-tuned models were evaluated using various metrics, with the responses from GPT-4 taken as the ground truth. The experiments revealed that Phi-2 slightly outperformed Mistral 7B, achieving scores of 0.012 BLEU, 0.184 METEOR, and 0.873 BERT. Considering the evaluation metrics obtained, the strengths and weaknesses of known LLM models, the amount of data required for fine-tuning, and the effect of the fine-tuning method on model performance are discussed.
Self-interacting Dark Matter Interpretation of Crater II
Authors: Zhang Xingyu , Yu Hai-Bo , Yang Daneng , An Haipeng
Published: June 2024

The satellite galaxy Crater II of the Milky Way is extremely cold and exceptionally diffuse. These unusual properties are challenging to understand in the standard model of cold dark matter. We use controlled N-body simulations to investigate the formation of Crater II in self-interacting dark matter (SIDM), where dark matter particles can scatter and thermalize. Taking the orbit motivated by the measurements from Gaia Early Data Release 3, we show a strong self-interacting cross section per particle mass of 60 cm2 g−1 is favored for Crater II. The simulated SIDM halo, with a 1 kpc core, leads to both a low stellar velocity dispersion and a large half-light radius for Crater II. These characteristics remain robust regardless of the initial stellar distribution.
The Six-planet Resonant Chain of HD 110067
Authors: Lammers Caleb , Winn Joshua N.
Published: June 2024

HD 110067 is the brightest star known to have six transiting planets. Each adjacent pair of planets has a period ratio that is nearly equal to a ratio of small integers, suggesting the planets are in a chain of mean-motion resonances, but the limited time span of the available data has prevented firm conclusions. Here, we show that the requirement of long-term dynamical stability implies that all six planets are very likely to form a resonant chain. Dynamical simulations of nonresonant systems with initial conditions compatible with the available data almost always suffer an instability within 25 Myr (∼0.3% of the system’s age). Assuming the system is in resonance, we place upper limits on the planets’ eccentricities and lower limits on the masses of the planets that have not yet been measured. We also predict the characteristics of transit timing variations and the values of the three-body libration centers.
Vacuum-assisted closure for treating chronic pelvic abscess following rectal stump leak after Hartmann’s procedure for low rectal cancer
Authors: Shoshkova Meri , Karamanliev Martin
Published: June 2024

Rectal stump leak following Hartmann’s procedure resulting in an abscess formation is quite a rare complication. The size of the cavity, the healing process, neoadjuvant radiotherapy, and the patient’s overall condition may play a huge role in the stoma reversal rates, functional outcomes, and the patient’s quality of life. Moreover, it can lead to septic complications if not treated properly. We present a case of a 75-year-old male patient who underwent Hartmann’s procedure due to low rectal carcinoma. He presented one month after the procedure in our office with a fever and anal secretion. He was treated with three different types of antibiotics, drainage of the abscess cavity, and dressing twice a day of the wound with a povidone-iodine solution without success. Amputation of the rectal stump, debridement of the necrotic tissue, and VAC therapy resolved the symptoms and closed the perineal defect. VAC therapy may be used successfully for chronic pelvic inflammatory complications after Hartmann’s procedure.
Optic coherence tomography-angiography – a new technique in the diagnosis and follow-up of the patients with age-related macular degeneration – an overview
Authors: Kirkova Radina , Murgova Snezhana V. , Kirkov Vidin , Dimitrov Tzvetomir , Balchev Georgi , Tanev Ivan
Published: June 2024

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a degenerative, progressive disease, which destroys the central retina. AMD has two main forms - „dry“ and „wet“ (exudative). In order to make the diagnosis of AMD with CNV, apart from ophthalmoscopy, specialized tests are needed - fluorescein angiography (FA), indocyanine angiography, OCT, OCT-angiography (OCT-A). OCTA is a new and non-invasive technology. Compared to the old, well-known techniques for retinal evaluation, it is very precious because of its high resolution and detailed images – which allow early diagnosis and objective monitoring of the lesions in the future. The aim of this review is to describe the principles of function, features of the device and its application in everyday clinical practice in diagnosing patients with macular pathology. A systematic search of the literature, published in the past decade was identified from PubMed and Ovid databases with reference to the Preferred Reporting items for Systematic Review. AMD is a disease that is increasingly socially important because of the aging population in developed countries. The increasing use of OCT-A nowadays suggests new classification systems. The non-invasiveness, the short examination time and the high informativeness that OCT-A brings in relation to AMD requires a deeper study of the methodology and the development of new classifications to facilitate clinical practice.

Published: June 2024

At the end of 2019, several cases of pneumonia provoked by an unknown causative agent were identified in China. In March 2020, the World Health Organization announced a pandemic of a new strain of Coronavirus - SARS-CoV-2. The neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is a biomarker that has recently become an important diagnostic and prognostic indicator in many diseases. The study‘s objective was to look for a relationship between NLR and the outcome of Covid-19 infection. Retrospectively, we studied 288 patients (mean age 69.1 ± 12.5) treated in an intensive pulmonology unit over ten months since 01.08.2021. All patients had severe pneumonia caused by SARS-CoV-2 infection, proven by a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test. Leukocytes, lymphocytes, neutrophils, and NLR were traced. Hundred and seventy-four (60.4%) of the patients died, and the rest were discharged with improvement. Concerning NLR, we found values of 9.52 in the group of the deceased and 7.87 in those discharged, respectively, at the beginning. In the end, this indicator increased in the group of deceased to 15.04, while we found a drop to 7.3 in those discharged. A statistically significant difference was found regarding the outcome of the disease and the change in the NLR values in dynamics (p = 0.005). NLR is a cheap and reliable biomarker that can predict the outcome of Covid-19 infection.

There are no specific recommendations for evaluating the Ki-67 index in heterogeneous breast carcinomas. This study aimed to evaluate the applicability of currently accepted recommendations for Ki-67 evaluation in breast cancer in the context of intratumor heterogeneity. Twelve cases of heterogeneous breast carcinomas obtained from 110 patients were retrospectively studied. Ki-67 staining was performed according to protocols provided by the reagent manufacturer. Results for Ki-67 of the separate components in each tumor were obtained, described, and analyzed statistically using a paired t-test. Values of p < 0.05 were considered as statistically significant. SPSS software was used for statistical analysis. Results from the comparison of the Ki-67 index evaluation in each heterogeneous component of the studied tumors demonstrated no statistically significant difference of mean values t = 0.4802, p = 0.6405. The anticipation of an average Ki-67 score in the evaluated cases would have changed the molecular subtype from Luminal B to Luminal A (due to the Ki-67 index below 14%) in two of the cases. Heterogeneous tumors had a different Ki-67 index in their separate components. Our observations suggest that Ki-67 in heterogeneous breast carcinoma is evaluated and reported separately for the distinguishable tumor components.

The study aimed to evaluate and analyze the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the emotional state of patients in General Medical Practice in Bulgaria. In July-December 2022, a survey was organized among 306 GPs working in primary health care (PHC) in Bulgaria. They represent about 8% of the country’s general practitioners and work in eight regions. An individual self-completion questionnaire was offered. After obtaining permission from the Ethics Committee, respondents were randomly selected. The data was processed with a specialized statistical software package, SPSS 22. The COVID-19 pandemic has increased the number of patients with anxiety and depressive symptoms in the period 2020–2022, according to 95.3% (286) of the GPs surveyed. According to the GPs, the reasons for this were social isolation – 79.4%, negative information from the media – 73.1%, uncertainty – 65%, financial worries – 51.7%, uncertainty about the future – 38.8%, and other – 2.1%. The population of Bulgaria has been greatly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The pandemic has increased the number of patients with anxiety and depression in the General Medical Practice for the period 2020–2022. Bulgarians often resort to self-medication despite the easy access to general practitioners and the possibility of consultation with a psychiatrist.

Thyroid diseases are common and, in most cases, can be safely and effectively detected and treated in primary medical care. This article aimed to analyze and evaluate the rate of thyroid ultrasonographic abnormalities in a primary medical care practice in Bulgaria. The research was conducted from 2016 to 2021. A random cohort of patients undergone annual preventive screening was included. Demographic information (age and sex) was collected. The descriptions of the ultrasonographic findings were standardized based on the following parameters: deviations in shape, size, position of the thyroid gland, deviations from normal parenchymal echogenicity (hyper-, hypo-, and heteroechogenic parenchyma), presence and size of detectable formations, and presence of calcifications. The total number of participants in this study was 3 178. Of these, 60% (1 907/3 178) were women and 40% (1 271/3 178) were men. The average age of participants was 40.1 ± 11.3 years, and there was no significant difference between the males and females. Deviations from normal ultrasonographic findings were observed in 36.2% (1 151/3 178), with a frequency increasing with age. Detectable formations were seen in 19.7% (625/3 178) of the patients, and those larger than 1 cm accounted for 4.4% (139/3 178) of all cases and 22.2% of all formations (139/625). Calcifications were found in 0.5% (15/3 163). Over 1/3 of the performed thyroid ultrasounds revealed abnormalities. Thyroid ultrasonographic abnormalities were significantly more common in women compared to men, and their frequency increased with age.

EpiNET: AN OPTIMIZED, RESOURCE EFFICIENT DEEP GRU-LSTM NETWORK FOR EPILEPTIC SEIZURE PREDICTION
Authors: Kalita Deepjyoti , Dash Shiyona , Mirza Khalid B.
Published: June 2024

The utilization of Electroencephalogram (EEG) as a non-invasive tool to investigate neurological disorders, particularly epilepsy, by capturing pathological biosignal markers indicative of seizures, sets the backdrop for this research endeavor. While previous studies have harnessed deep learning techniques for seizure detection, a pressing need persists for a resource-efficient model that demands minimal training data and time yet upholds commendable specificity and sensitivity. In response to this gap, we introduce an innovative deep Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU)– Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) network, coined as EpiNET, purposefully crafted for the prediction of epileptic seizures using EEG data. A distinctive feature of EpiNET is its integration of statistical, spectral, and temporal features, chosen for their computational simplicity, thereby enhancing the model’s efficiency. The model is meticulously trained and validated on diverse patient datasets sourced from the CHB-MIT Scalp EEG database, outshining existing deep learning networks regarding seizure prediction accuracy. EpiNET boasts remarkable metrics, with reported sensitivity, accuracy, and specificity values standing at 92.54 ± 0.41%, 96.15 ± 0.45%, and 97.73 ± 0.58%, respectively. This underscores the efficacy of EpiNET while upholding a lean model structure, addressing concerns regarding computational efficiency. A ground-breaking aspect of this study is the introduction of a GRU-LSTM-based deep learning model capable of predicting epileptic seizures at least 2 h (120 min) in advance, marking a significant stride towards timely intervention and heightened patient care. In summary, this research not only advances the field of neurological disorder prediction but also underscores the paramount importance of resource efficiency in model development.

Authors: Haga Toshio , Ochi Hiizu , Fuse Hiroshi , Watari Hisaki , Nishida Shinichi
Published: June 2024

A three-wheel caster for the fabrication of thin aluminum alloy wire was designed, assembled and tested. The first aim was to develop a caster more compact than the Properzi continuous caster. The second was to cast thin wires without burrs. The third was for the cast wire to have a cross-sectional area of less than 80 mm2. The casting of Al–Mg alloy wire was tested using the developed three-wheel caster, consisting of a large lower casting wheel and two small upper forming wheels whose positions could be independently adjusted. Two types of upper wheels were tested. The casting speed was 6 m/min, and the diameter of lower and upper wheels were 600 and 200 mm, respectively. The wheels were made from copper for the rapid solidification of the molten metal. The focus of this study was on the forming of the semisolid wire by the two upper forming wheels and the ability of the device to cast wire without burrs. The influence of the position of the upper wheels on the wire properties was investigated.

Published: June 2024

The article is based on the materials of field research conducted in the Kaliningrad region in 2022–2023. The authors proceed from the idea of this region as a frontier emerged due to redefinition of jurisdiction of the territories of East Prussia after World War II and geopolitical transformations after 1991. Currently, the region is surrounded by EU countries, and this predetermines its perception as a civilizational frontier – a space of comparison between Russian and European ways of life, and intensified the politicization of local historical memory. The aim of the article is to examine the narratives underlying visual transformation of the cultural landscape of the Kaliningrad region since 1945, their relation to the tasks of de-actualization of the region’s past, appropriation of German heritage and its integration into the Russian cultural space. Cultural landscape is defined both as a product and environment of human activity saturated with a variety of artifacts, and as a sign system that forms, preserves, and controls a certain vision of the world. The use of the semiotic paradigm allowed us to consider monuments as its long-term semantic accents. We also took into account the multiplicity of actors influencing the organization and reorganization of the cultural landscape, the variability of the correlation of political forces and opportunities, and the participation in the transformation processes of both power institutions that limit the possibility of alternative perception of reality, and society that resists ideological programming. The evolution of semantic dominants of the cultural landscape we analyzed in the context of shifts in the ideology and attitudes of regional society. We conclude that the compromise tactics of appropriation of the region’s past, developed over time, are based on countering the challenges of the time and solving practical problems, rather than on political attitudes.

The Effect of The Ink Coffee Grounds Material for Black Colour in Screen Printing
Authors: Yuniarti Endang
Published: June 2024

The carbon content in coffee grounds can be utilized as a base material or organic pigment in making ink. Organic pigments are made by refining and reducing the particle size of coffee grounds using a screen mesh, and mortar and pestle. The process of making ink is done by mixing coffee grounds with ink-making materials such as distilled water, gum arabic, and arrowroot flour. The process of making this ink is  carried out with 4 variations of the composition of coffee grounds, which are  15, 20, 25, and 30 grams. The purpose of this study is to  determine the effect of variations in the composition of coffee grounds on the physical properties of the ink, namely viscosity, and on print quality, such as density and L*a*b. The results showed that the addition of coffee grounds pigments affected the density, L*a*b, and viscosity values. The higher the composition of coffee grounds, the higher the density, L*a*b, and ink viscosity values.

Published: June 2024

Abstract:
The global nature of the digital space combined with weak identification of users, insufficient attribution of actions, the complexity of internationally deployed services, the global development of social networking sites, and emerging international crime markets all raise serious concerns about the rise in cybercrime and thus the sustainability of a stable society as a basis for personal development and economic prosperity, and the weak societal infrastructure for technology Information, communications, and the unlimited collection and storage of data threaten personal freedom and international stability. Citizens’ trust in society and government to protect their security, safety, and prosperity is eroded by the risks and uncertainties arising from technological developments, with the heavy economic losses that this entails. This study aims to understand cybercrimes and the statement of the resulting crimes. Therefore, urge urgently to find a strategy to address these problems based on a coherent analysis of technological, societal, economic, and political trends and consequences.

The effectiveness of institutional communication management via the Internet in enhancing organizational culture:
A study of a sample of users of the websites of Arab institutions and companies in Baghdad

Organizational culture in the management of any institution, company, or organization provides a clear way to understand how things are done; also, at the same time, it provides stability for these institutions as well as standards that guide and direct behavior in them. This is especially true when institutional communication is electronic, by using the Internet. Therefore, this study, with a strong focus on the users of the institutions and companies' websites, seeks to evaluate the level of effectiveness of electronic management of institutional communication in Arab institutions and companies, of all kinds, in enhancing the organizational culture of these users, whether internal users who work in them, or external users who benefit from the services provided by these institutions and companies through their websites.
Accordingly, this study, with its methodological, theoretical, and field-based frameworks, aims to test the relationship between the level of effectiveness of institutional communication management for Arab institutions and companies via the Internet and the extent to which it enhances the elements of organizational culture for internal and external audience. It also serves as an optimistic attempt to prove the validity of the hypothesis that the electronic management of institutional communication gives the internal audience the opportunity of taking an administrative decision, in contrast to the traditional management of institutional communication.
Thus, this study seeks to answer the main question: Have the methods of organizational culture changed due to the electronic management of institutional communication in Arab institutions and companies from the point of view of their audience?
This study belongs to descriptive research that describes the phenomenon in its current state and aims to portray, analyze, and evaluate the characteristics of a particular group.
Therefore, the best approach for this type of study is the survey method, both field and descriptive, by selecting a sample of users of the websites of companies and institutions, whether from their internal or external audience, as the size of the selected sample is 150 respondents, equally 75 respondents for the internal audience and 75 for the external audience. The study will use a main tool in collecting data and information for research, which is a questionnaire in two parts, one for internal audience questions and the second for external audience questions.
