The Impact of Economic Conditions on Social Assistance Programs and Poverty Alleviation
Authors: Simangunsong Humala , Sihotang Demita
Published: November 2023

Poverty remains a pervasive global challenge, necessitating effective policy interventions to uplift vulnerable populations. This research delves into the dynamic relationship between social assistance programs and poverty alleviation. Employing a mixed-methods approach, we investigate the impact of these programs on poverty rates, program effectiveness variations, demographic disparities, and the interplay with economic conditions. Our findings offer compelling insights. Firstly, social assistance programs exhibit a statistically significant reduction in poverty rates among beneficiaries, confirming their vital role in poverty alleviation. Moreover, variations in program effectiveness emerge, with cash transfer programs demonstrating immediate impact compared to in-kind assistance programs. Demographic differences further shape program outcomes, as programs targeting children and single-parent households exhibit pronounced effects on poverty reduction. Economic conditions also matter, as these programs prove more effective during periods of robust economic growth, serving as vital safety nets during economic downturns. Conditional social assistance programs demonstrate promise by incentivizing positive behaviors such as education enrollment and healthcare utilization. These findings hold significant policy implications, emphasizing the need for evidence-based program design and implementation. This research concludes with a call for comprehensive approaches to poverty alleviation, considering demographic variations, economic contexts, and the potential benefits of conditional programs. Ongoing monitoring and evaluation are pivotal in adapting programs to evolving circumstances, thus contributing to a more equitable and prosperous society.
Clinical features of the course of depressive disorders in patients with COVID-19
Authors: Leshchyna I.V.
Published: November 2023

The outbreak of COVID-19 and the severe course of most cases, the high risk of fatalities and related gossip. All these factors can lead to significant mental pressure and the development of maladaptive reactions - depression, fear, anxiety, which can directly cause the development of certain behaviors. Such behavioral patterns include: a decrease in altruistic behavior, an increase in actions aimed at biological self-preservation, not infrequently even deceptions regarding infection and/or contact with patients. The COVID-19 pandemic is also accompanied by a widespread "infodemic" and a predicted future "epidemic" of panic. This usually predictably causes public psychological reactions. These include: tension, fear and anxiety, loss of plans and orientations for the future, all of the above can lead to an acute reaction to stress, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, and other emotional disorders. In the examined 144 patients (73 women and 71 men), aged 25–55 years, depressive disorders were presented as follows: prolonged anxiety-depressive reaction reaction (F43.22), moderate depressive episode (F32.1), severe depressive episode (F32.1), organic depressive disorder (F06.32). The vast majority of examined patients noted the psycho-traumatic nature of the fact that they were diagnosed with COVID-19 and complained of a sense of loss of control over the situation, helplessness, a sense of danger, low mood, anxiety, panic, hopelessness, apathy, fear of death, loss of a sense of satisfaction, despair. Also, according to the data of the psychodiagnostic study, the examined patients are characterized by low communicativeness, isolation, disturbing vindictiveness, a tendency to dramatize and negatively evaluate events and facts. Analysis of self-assessment of the severity of autoaggressive predictors according to Pylyaginou G.Ya. showed that patients are characterized by moderate levels on the scales of autoaggression and impulsivity. In which criticism of interpersonal communication problems, affective and vegetative disorders decreases.

Authors: ATAŞ Nurgül , KILINÇ Emrullah , YALÇIN Ömer
Published: November 2023

Background: Covid-19 has undergone many mutations over time. The most prominent variants have been the Alpha, Beta, Delta, Gamma, and finally, the Omicron variants. This study aims to determine the availability of neutrophil/lymphocyte rate (NLR), platelet/lymphocyte rate (PLR) and Systemic Inflammatory Index (SII), prog-nostic and diagnostic significance, in the differentiation of variants in pediatric Covid-19 patients.
Materials and Methods: In this retrospective study, 141 pediatric patients who were found to be positive for Covid-19 in Harran University Medical Faculty Hospital between January 2021 and April 2022 were included. A control group was formed from 107 healthy children selected from among those who applied to the general pediatric outpatient clinic for routine health evaluations.
Results: When the age distribution of the patients was examined, the median was 7.0 (0.1-18) years. When the variants were compared, there was a significant difference between lymphocyte values, while leukocyte, neu-trophil, C-reactive protein (CRP) and Mean Platelet Volume (MPV) did not change significantly. At the same time, there was a statistically significant difference between NLR, PLR and SII variants in Covid-19 positive patients (p<0.05); It was found that CRP, CRP/albumin rate (CAR), and MPV values did not change significantly between variants (p>0.05). It was observed that the NLR, PLR and SII delta variants increased significantly compared to the omicron variant (p<0.05). CRP and CAR were significantly increased in the severe clinical course compared to the asymptomatic group (p<0.05).
Conclusions: In our study, it was seen that patients with delta variant had higher NLR, PLR and SII values compared to omicron variant when viewed from the point of view of Covid-19 variants. Therefore, we think that during the diagnosis of Covid-19 accompanied by these parameters, variant analysis can be performed, especially in terms of the delta variant, and it will shed light on the differential diagnosis, appropriate treatment, and measures to be taken by early and simple means.

Authors: Maruti B Desai , Namrata Puntambekar , Mangesh S Pednekar
Published: November 2023

Background:The COVID-19 pandemic has caused a signicant health burden on human beings worldwide. While each person deals with stress in
their own-way, it is particularly important to understand the stress-management-strategies utilized to overcome stress, during the COVID-19
pandemic-situation. Objective: To identify the factors that contributed to the stress and the various coping-mechanism utilized bythe Indian
th st population during the COVID-19 lockdown-period. Method: A cross-sectional web-based online survey was conducted from 13 June-31 July,
2020 and the survey link was shared using social-media-platforms. A self-administered questionnaire was used to measure stress and its related
coping-mechanisms. Amultivariate-logistic regression analysis was performed to examine associations. Results: Out of 1021 eligible individuals,
460 were females and 561 were males. Out of them, 39.60% of females and 24.10% of males reported that they felt stressed. As compared to males,
females reported they were more likely to pray(OR=4.31), meditate(OR=3.50), read a book(OR=3.20), exercise(OR=2.84), call-afriend(OR=2.63), eat(OR=2.12) and watch-television(OR=1.48) when they were stressed during COVID-19 pandemic. In contrast, males were
more likely to smoke-a-cigarette(OR=11.84) and drink alcoholic-beverages(OR=3.20) than females as a coping-mechanism during the pandemic.
Conclusion: This study identied that females were better than males at dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic. Females predominantly choose
active coping and expressive support coping mechanisms i.e. praying, meditating, reading-a-book, exercising, calling-a-friend, watchingtelevision, and other-activities. Males predominantly choices the avoidance-coping strategy i.e. smoking-cigarettes and drunk alcoholicbeverages during the COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, these ndings can help design interventions during the future pandemic to better cope with
the difcult and uncontrolled situation in India.

G2MILP: Learning to Generate Mixed-Integer Linear Programming Instances for MILP Solvers
Authors: Wang Jie , Geng Zijie , Li Xijun , Hao Jianye , Zhang Yongdong , Wu Feng
Published: November 2023

There have been significant efforts devoted to developing advanced mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) solvers, which are powerful tools for solving various real-world optimization problems. Despite the achievements, the limited availability of real-world instances often results in sub-optimal decisions and biased evaluations, which motivates a suite of MILP instance generation techniques. However, these approaches either rely on expert-designed formulations or struggle to capture the rich features of real-world instances. Moreover, the task of generating challenging MILP instances---which are valuable resources for evaluating solvers and motivating more efficient algorithms---remains underexplored. To tackle these problems, we propose G2MILP, which to the best of our knowledge is the first deep generative framework for MILP instances. Specifically, G2MILP represents MILP instances as bipartite graphs and employs a masked variational autoencoder to iteratively corrupt and replace parts of the original graphs to generate new ones. We then propose a hardness-oriented scheme, which iteratively augments the generator by learning from the hardest instances, to enhance G2MILP to construct challenging MILP instances. Experiments demonstrate that G2MILP can generate realistic MILP instances to effectively facilitate downstream tasks. Moreover, G2MILP can generate difficult instances initializing from given datasets, and the boost of hardness can be orders of magnitude.

In the evolving landscape of the IT industry, the dichotomy between Work-From-Office (WFH) and Return-To-Office (RTO) models has become a focal point, especially in IT Consulting and Software Development. This study embarks on a comparative analysis of these models in the United States and Germany, delving into their impacts on productivity, commuting, stress, and the economic costs associated with maintaining office spaces. The research is grounded in a comprehensive literature review that explores the historical and current work models in IT, assesses productivity metrics, analyzes commuting patterns, and evaluates the influence of work-related stress on IT professionals. Additionally, it considers the economic implications of office spaces, a factor critical to organizational decision-making.

Employing a case study methodology, the research scrutinizes an IT consulting firm in the US and a software development company in Germany. These case studies are instrumental in examining the multifaceted aspects of WFH and RTO models. The productivity analysis is conducted through quantitative measures like project completion rates and qualitative assessments from employee feedback. Commuting impacts are evaluated in terms of time, cost, environmental footprint, and employee satisfaction. Stress levels are measured through well-being surveys and turnover rates, providing insights into the psychological impacts of different work models. A pivotal aspect of the study is the economic analysis of office costs, encompassing real estate expenses, utilities, maintenance, and the potential savings from remote work models.

The comparative analysis aims to draw parallels and contrasts between the US and German contexts, highlighting how cultural and economic factors shape the adoption and effectiveness of WFH and RTO models. It also explores the environmental considerations of commuting in the IT sector and the complex interplay between work models, stress, job satisfaction, and economic efficiency.

The discussion section extrapolates the broader implications of these findings, offering policy recommendations for IT companies navigating the post-pandemic work environment. It addresses the challenges of balancing productivity with employee well-being and the economic realities of office maintenance.

In conclusion, the study synthesizes the findings from the case studies, advocating for a flexible, economically viable approach that harmonizes productivity with employee well-being and company costs. It underscores the necessity for IT companies to adopt adaptable work models that consider not only the productivity and well-being of employees but also the economic realities of office maintenance. The study also highlights the need for ongoing research to understand the long-term economic impacts of WFH and RTO models on the IT industry.

Published: November 2023

Understanding the characteristics of shoulder joint stiffness can offer insights into how the shoulder joint contributes to arm stability and assists in various arm postures and movements. This study aims to characterize posture-dependent shoulder stiffness in a three-dimensional (3D) space and investigate its potential sex differences. A multi-degree-of-freedom, parallelactuated shoulder exoskeleton robot was employed to perturb the participant’s shoulder joint and measure the resulting torque responses while participants relaxed their shoulder muscles. The group average results of 40 healthy individuals (20 males and 20 females) revealed that arm postures significantly affect shoulder stiffness, particularly in postures involving shoulder flexion/extension and horizontal flexion/extension. Shoulder stiffness consistently increased as the shoulder flexion angle decreased and the shoulder horizontal flexion/extension approached the limit of its range of motion. The comparative group results between males and females indicated that shoulder stiffness in males was consistently greater than that in females across all 15 arm postures measured in this study. Even after weight-normalization, the female group showed significantly smaller stiffness than the male group in 12 out of 15 arm postures. The results highlight that 3D arm postures and sex significantly affect shoulder stiffness even under relaxed muscles. This study provides valuable foundations for future studies aimed at characterizingshoulder stiffness in the context of active muscles and dynamic movement tasks, evaluating changes in shoulder stiffness following neuromuscular injuries, and formulating rehabilitative training protocols for individuals suffering from shoulder problems.
Short Block-length Channel Coded Modulation with Random Linear Codes and QAOA Decoding
Authors: Gulbahar Burhan
Published: November 2023

Quantum approximate optimization algorithm (QAOA) is used for NP-hard problems on noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) devices. We demonstrate QAOA's near-optimum maximum likelihood (ML) decoding for short block-lengths in Gaussian channels using random linear codes and channel coded modulation. Simulations with a p-layer QAOA decoder for  p ∈ [1, 4], coding rates R = k/n ∈ [0.3, 1], signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)  ∈  [0, 10] dB and k ∈ [10, 26] show near-optimum bit and block error rates. We conjecture near-optimum performance for p ∈ [1, 10], R = 0.5, SNR = 10 dB and k ≦ 250 indicating QAOA's potential in short block-length decoding.
TSN-VM: A Real-time and Distributed Algorithm for Scheduling-Violation Mitigation in Time-Sensitive Networking
Authors: Zhou Boyang , Cheng Liang
Published: November 2023

Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) is designed to provide deterministic performance for real-time systems, which usually have hard delay requirements for Time-Triggered (TT) traffic. In order to guarantee deterministic delays, TSN scheduling assigns specific time slots to TT frames for their transmissions by TSN switches on their paths. However, several factors may lead to scheduling violations, meaning that TT frames are not sent as scheduled. Scheduling violations can cause the increment of delays experienced by TT frames, which may breach their delay requirements.

Existing TSN scheduling methods cannot deal with scheduling violations. In our research, we propose TSN-Violation Mitigation (TSN-VM), which dynamically reconfigures the schedule at each TSN switch distributedly on a periodic basis, to mitigate the occurrence of scheduling violations. TSN-VM is built upon our new real-time detection mechanism to discover local violation information in each port of TSN switches. TSN-VM is the first real-time algorithm that can deal with scheduling violations in TSN. Its convergence conditions are demonstrated in the paper. Using TSN-VM, we can reduce the number of lag violations by more than 90.74$\%$ and decrease the average and median delays by more than 95.57$\%$ in the simulated avionic system and industrial Ethernet compared with systems without TSN-VM.
Analysis and Design of Low Index Core Dielectric Waveguide Using Planar Excitation for Ku-Band Applications
Authors: Sahoo Sunil Kumar , Adhikary Moitreya , Kant Rajni , Biswas Animesh , Akhtar M Jaleel
Published: November 2023

In this work, a new approach to analyse and design the rectangular shaped low index core dielectric waveguide (LICDW) structure is proposed, which is based on derivation of the generic transcendental characteristic equations for the corresponding geometry using the effective dielectric constant method. The proposed method is not based on the image theory, and hence the derived characteristic equations can effectively be utilized to compute all possible modes of the LICDW structure quite accurately. The propagation constant of the LICDW structure is computed here as a function of the core-cladding parameters using the proposed characteristic equations. The reflection coefficient at the core-cladding interface of the structure in the specified frequency band is also computed to show the effect of the total reflection along the LICDW. The LICDW structure is fed using a newly proposed fully planar transition, which is realized by the SIW based magneto-electric dipole array feeding technique. For validating the proposed approach, a prototype structure comprising the LICDW along with the transition in the Ku-band is designed, fabricated, and tested. The proposed LICDW structure can be integrated with the corresponding dielectric radiator for the miniaturization of conventional Ku-band VSAT network.

Authors: Essofi R. , Azzahiri I. , Benzalim M. , ALJ S.
Published: November 2023

Duodenal diverticulosis is second only to the colon as the most common location for diverticula. Despite typically being asymptomatic, it can lead to severe complications such as perforation, hemorrhage, and acute diverticulitis. Diagnosing duodenal diverticulitis is challenging due to its non-distinctive presentation and similarity to other intraabdominal conditions in radiographic images. This paper examines a challenging case of duodenal diverticulitis with post-traumatic perforation in a 63-year-old patient, admitted post-traffic accident with an acute abdominal pain revealing duodenal diverticulum rupture as per abdominal CT scan. Despite the complications and a Grade II compression fracture of the L3 vertebra, the patient showed improvement under observation without necessitating surgery. The study highlights the diagnostic complexities of duodenal diverticulitis and the importance of abdominal CT scans in identifying this rare and often misdiagnosed condition.

Introduction: Renal artery aneurysms are rare vascular anomalies and even more exceptional is they are located in both renal arteries in this case. The literature reports an approximate occurrence of 0.01 to 0.09 in the general population. Its appearance predominates in the female gender and the most common location is in the right renal artery. The peak age of occurrence is between 40 and 60 years. Its physiopathology is generally caused by inflammatory processes and muscular fibrodysplasias; however, when they are intraparenchymal, they are associated with congenital collagenopathies or polytraumatisms. Clinical case: 74-year-old male patient with a personal history of Parkinson's disease, adrenocortical adenoma and diverticulosis. During the study of his basic pathology, a simple and contrast angiography of the abdomen was performed, after the verification of his renal function, which was within normal ranges (urea 44.4 mg/dl, creatinine 1.04 mg/dl). The presence of images suggestive of aneurysms in the left renal arteries was reported as an incidental finding, therefore he was referred to the Department of Angiology and Vascular Surgery. The clinical case was discussed by the medical staff of the Department of Angiology and Vascular Surgery, concluding that the rare bilateral renal artery aneurysm pathology does not meet criteria for open or endovascular surgery, therefore it is indicated to continue regular monitoring to determine possible growth and intervention in case of risk of rupture. Conclusions: With the development of imaging techniques, the incidental finding of renal artery aneurysm is going to be more and more frequent. The presence of symptoms is also fundamental in making decisions regarding the need for surgery. In asymptomatic patients, non-aggressive treatment is recommended; however, the clinical evaluation of each patient should be individualized.

Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (NLCs) belong to the group of lysosomal diseases. Their transmission is autosomal recessive. They are characterized by progressive degenerative neurological damage of variable clinical expressions, and by ophthalmic damage. Jansky-Bieloschowsky disease is the classic late infantile form of CLNs or classic CLN2. The EEG tracing is characteristic. Visual and somaesthetic cortical evoked potentials are abnormal. Cerebral MRI shows cerebellar and then cerebral cortical atrophy associated with T2 hypersignal of the periventricular white matter. The diagnosis was confirmed by biochemical, histological, and molecular tests. Patient n°1 is 7 years old. She is bedridden and visually impaired. She was presented with psychomotor regression at the age of 3 and epilepsy 6 months later. Brain imaging and EEG were typical. TPP1 (tripeptidyl-peptidase1) enzyme activity was significantly reduced. Patient 2 is a 5-year-old girl who is also bedridden and visually impaired. She presented with psychomotor regression at the age of 3 years and 2 months, and epilepsy 11 months later. Brain imaging and EEG were typical, and TPP1 enzyme activity had collapsed. These two observations illustrate the diagnostic particularities of this very rare disease and current therapeutic perspectives.

Authors: Дега Н.С.
Published: November 2023

Эколого-водохозяйственная оценка реки Кубань включала расчеты коэффициентов предельной загрязненности (КПЗ) без учета и с учетом проведения водоохранных мероприятий. В 2021 г. на 4 створах КПЗ характеризовал поверхностную воду 3 классом – «умеренно загрязненная». Очистка сточных вод от общих фенолов, аммонийного азота, марганца и общего железа улучшит качество воды до 2 класса «чистая» даже в многоводные годы.

Малонарушенные лесные территории отличаются большим разнообразием растительного покрова и включают в себя мозаику выделов, отличающихся как по лесорастительным условиям, так и по возрасту древостоев. Породно-возрастная мозаика древостоев первичных лесов является результатом длительной истории естественных нарушений. Эти нарушения играют важнейшую роль в поддержании устойчивости и разнообразия лесных экосистем. Большинство исследований в этой области выполнено в Северной Америке, в то время как аналогичные работы по бореальным лесам Дальнего Востока малочисленны. Мы исследовали режимы естественных нарушений в горных таежных первичных лесах, используя пространственно распределенные датасеты (керны деревьев, данные дистанционного зондирования и доступные таксационные сведения). Статистический анализ данных показал наиболее вероятный сценарий изменения параметров нарушений: для частичных нарушений выявлено три периода смены режимов (1950-60-е, 1880-е и 1840-е годы), изменение режима пожарных нарушений выявлено для периодов 1920x 1880x и 1750x годы. По данным о приростах деревьев выявлены эпизоды массового усыхания древостоев района исследований: в XVIII, XIX и XX веках и соответствуют реконструкциям засух.

Активное отступление ледников тесно связано с вопросами почвообразования на освобождающихся горных территориях. При этом многие участки до сих пор не изучены или имеющаяся информация не актуализирована с учетом глобального изменения климата. Не является исключением и Центральный Кавказ. В данной работе было изучено современное состояние почв в Цейском и Сказском ущельях республики Северная Осетия-Алания. Отмечено, что на территориях, недавно освободившихся от оледенения, развиваются пелоземы легкосуглинистые на моренных отложениях и литоземы органо-аккумулятивные, которые сменяются подбуром на склоновых делювиальных отложениях и буроземом серогумусовым на участках, где ледник отступил относительно давно. Исследованные лесные экосистемы являются высокопродуктивными, что связано как с климатическими параметрами, так и с переносом ледниковых отложений – криоконитов – богатых углеродом органических соединений и характеризующихся высокими уровнями микробиологической активности. Полученная информация необходима для понимания изменений почвенного покрова высокогорий Центрального Кавказа в условиях изменения климата и экосистем, а также для планирования хозяйственной деятельности.
