Restlessness with manic episodes induced by right-sided multiple strokes after COVID-19 infection: A case report
Authors: Nagamine Takahiko
Published: June 2023

Ischemic stroke is a major complication of coronavirus infection 2019 (COVID-19). During the COVID-19 pandemic, multiple strokes occurred in many elderly people. Among them, poststroke mood disorders such as depression are relatively common. However, restlessness with manic episodes has rarely been reported. We experienced an elderly patient who became manic shortly after recovering from COVID-19 infection, which turned out to be right-sided multiple strokes. The manic state improved as the strokes stabilized, suggesting that impaired blood flow was the cause of the manic symptoms. Primary mania increases blood flow in the left hemisphere, whereas right-sided strokes may relatively increase blood flow in the left hemisphere, which may have induced manic symptoms in this case. Multiple right-sided strokes after COVID-19 infection can cause mania, and the mechanism of poststroke mania needs to be investigated in the future.
Basilar artery recanalization by proximal balloon occlusion and aspiration in a single vessel vertebrobasilar system: A case report
Authors: Gusler Matthew , Razavi Seyed-Mostafa , Grossman Aaron , Prestigiacomo Charles , Mowla Ashkan , Shirani Peyman
Published: June 2023

The authors present a case of a patient with a hypoplastic right vertebral artery (VA) ending in the posterior inferior cerebellar artery who sustained an acute onset basilar artery occlusion. A balloon-guided catheter was used to proximally occlude the dominant left VA, and aspiration was applied until reversal of flow was achieved in the basilar artery. Thus, basilar artery reperfusion was achieved without the need for stent-retrieval thrombectomy. We believe this represents the first described case of successful thrombectomy in the vertebrobasilar system using only proximal artery occlusion and aspiration. This novel technique may decrease the time to recanalization and improve outcomes for patients with acute basilar artery occlusion in the setting of a hypoplastic contralateral VA.
Clinico-microbiological profile of adults with enteric fever
Authors: Dessai Rishikesh , Yadav Amit , Garg Ambuj
Published: June 2023

Background:

Enteric fever is a major public health problem; the burden of disease worldwide is approximately 11.9–26.9 million cases and 129,000–217,000 deaths each year. The burden of disease in India is approximately 6 million per year. Enteric fever is caused by Gram-negative bacteria Salmonella typhi or Salmonella paratyphi A, B or C, which is a bloodstream infection. The re-emergence of susceptibility of old antibiotics such as ampicillin, co-trimoxazole, and chloramphenicol in S. typhi has been observed.

Aims:

The objective of the study was to study the antibiotic sensitivity pattern of S. typhi, S. paratyphi A and S. paratyphi B and also the clinical and laboratory profile of enteric fever with respect to blood counts, liver function tests and typhoid serology in adult patients with enteric fever.

Materials and Methods:

The study was conducted in the Department of Internal Medicine and Microbiology at Sir Ganga Ram Hospital in 76 adult patients of blood culture-positive enteric fever. Clinical and laboratory profile of patients was recorded. Antibiotic sensitivity patterns were studied in all cases and the prevalence of multidrug-resistant strains, if the present was established.

Results:

The mean age in this study was 31.46 + 11.29 years. There were 46 male patients and 30 female patients. Fever was present amongst all patients (100%). Myalgia/headache was present amongst the majority of patients (98.7%). Pain in the abdomen (57.9%) was present. Leucopenia and leucocytosis were present in 25% and 2.6% of patients, respectively. Serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase and serum glutamic-pyruvic transaminase were abnormal amongst 36.8% and 38.2% of patients, respectively. Complications, such as ileal perforation and gastrointestinal (GI) bleed, were not seen in the patients of enteric fever in this study. Typhidot IgM was positive in 50% of patients. S. typhi (blood culture) was amongst more than half of the patients (69.7%) and S. paratyphi A was 30.3%. Ampicillin was resistant to 5.3% and chloramphenicol and cotrimoxazole each were resistant to 2.6%. Levofloxacin was resistant to 38.2%. Ceftriaxone, azithromycin and cefixime were sensitive to 100%. Multidrug resistance (resistance to ampicillin, chloramphenicol and cotrimoxazole) was seen in 2.6% of cases, which was associated with S. typhi. There was no multidrug resistant (MDR) strain seen with S. paratyphi A.

Conclusions:

This study showed that fever, myalgia/headache, pain in the abdomen, nausea/vomiting and diarrhoea were the common clinical manifestations of enteric fever. Other important conclusions were low percentages of comorbidities, low occurrence of leucocytosis, high typhidot IgM positivity, low MDR and most of the drugs were 100% sensitive. Ileal perforation and GI bleeding were not found in any case of enteric fever in this study.
Surgery as an option in adult onset Xanthogranuloma
Authors: Jhunjhunwala Nikhil , Saha Shiv Shankar
Published: June 2023

Adult orbital xanthogranulomatous disease (AOXGD) is a group of rare syndromes, involving the periorbital and ocular tissues. We present details of a case of adult-onset xanthogranuloma (AOX) and the management strategy employed in a positive outcome. AOX is the least common variant of AOXGD without any significant systemic involvement. The significance of this entity is that it is often self-limited and is localised to the eye (anterior orbit), with good prognosis. We have kept surgery as our viable primary option in patients presenting late with functional problems and severe cosmetic deformity. In cases with disfiguring lesions and late presentation, the best therapeutic approach is complete excision biopsy and reconstruction with local flaps and full-thickness skin graft.

Factors associated with delayed diagnosis among sub-Saharan African women
Authors: Balhi Salma
Published: June 2023

Breast cancer incidence in sub-Saharan Africa is among the lowest in the world; however, mortality is as high as in high-incidence countries because of poor survival rates. Most breast cancer patients in sub-Saharan Africa are diagnosed at advanced stages after prolonged symptomatic periods. Understanding the reasons why women in sub-Saharan Africa seek care after the onset of symptoms is essential to promoting early diagnosis and ultimately improve their cancer survival.

Published: June 2023

Introduction:

COVID-19 is a novel pandemic affecting the entire world. This study was conducted with the purpose of assessing the challenges faced by patients receiving orthodontic treatment as well as treating orthodontists and their preferred solutions to overcome these challenges.

Methodology:

A total of 120 patients, undergoing orthodontic treatment of any form (fixed/removable appliances) at the Department of Orthodontics, Dharmsinh Desai University, whose treatment had started before the lockdown, were approached. The close-ended offline questionnaire consisting of 12 questions, all mandatory to be answered, was distributed randomly among these patients with prior consent. To compare the difference in the distribution of responses for the questionnaire and analyze it statistically, the Chi-square test was used.

Results:

The participant response rate was 91.66%. 76.36% of patients neither felt any emergency nor faced any issues during the lockdown. 56.36% were in telephonic contact with their respective orthodontists; out of which 90% were following the instructions prescribed by their orthodontists. Forty percent of patients were concerned about the global pandemic, and 83.64% were worried about their orthodontic treatment getting extended.

Conclusion:

The COVID-19 pandemic did not have a statistically significant impact on orthodontic treatment as well as on the psychology of patients undergoing treatment as they were in contact with their respective orthodontists through telephonic communication.

Published: June 2023

It is important to pinpoint the identity of the deceased in scenarios such as decomposed bodies, skeletonized remains, mutilated remains, exhumed dead bodies, and in mass disasters. There are many important parameters to establish the identity of a person. The estimation of sex is one of them. Estimation of sex from bones is easy when the whole skeleton is available, but it becomes difficult when the body is mutilated and only parts of the body or bones are available. The present study is undertaken to estimate the sex by applying discriminant function analysis (DFA) on various osteo-metric parameters of the clavicle in the population of Haryana. Two hundred pairs of clavicles were collected from the bodies brought for autopsy. They were macerated and air dried for the removal of soft tissues. Seven variables of clavicle of both sexes were measured and analyzed using the analysis of variance test which provided descriptive statistics. DFA of the values helped in sexing of the clavicle. Estimation of sex from different parameters of the clavicle was possible with overall accuracy of 93% in original and 92.5% in crossvalidated cases among total cases. Accuracy was 96% and 90% in original and 96% and 89% in cross validated cases among males and females respectively, indicating a strong correlation in estimation of sex of a person from the clavicle. The most important parameters to determine the sex from the clavicle are length of clavicle, mid clavicular circumference of clavicle, weight of clavicle, transverse diameter of lateral end of right clavicle, and longitudinal diameter of medial end of the left clavicle.

Authors: Obi Ndubuisi Paris , Okafor Izuchukwu Azuka , Okeke Chijioke
Published: June 2023

This study assessed the sex-based relationship and prediction pattern between fingerprint patterns, ridge counts, and learning disability (LD). This cross-sectional study recruited 300 students (150 LD and 150 non-LD) aged between 3 and 29 years. The fingerprint patterns (arch, whorl, ulnar loop, and radial loop) and the ridge count: total finger ridge count (TFRC), absolute ridge count (ARC), ulnar ridge count (URC), and radial ridge count (RRC) were accessed. Students with LD showed a significantly higher whorl and a significantly lower ulnar loop than students without LD. There is a significant association of whorl pattern in the first right finger of subjects with LD compared to non-LD counterparts. TFRC, ARC, and URC were significantly higher in females with LD than non-LD females (P = 0.01, 0.03, and 0.001). Males with LD showed significantly lower TFRC, RRC, and URC counts than the non-LD males (P = 0.02, 0.01, and 0.001). TFRC can predict LD in males (odds ratio [OR] = 1.010, P = 0.032) and females (OR = 0.993, P = 0.012). Fingerprint pattern and ridge counts are sexually dimorphic in subjects with or without LD. TFRC and whorl fingerprint patterns may be vital predictive and screening tools for LD in males and females.

Published: June 2023

Aim:

The aim of the study was to analyze the awareness of LASER in periodontal treatment modalities and their advantages and disadvantages among periodontists in Chennai, India.

Materials and Methods:

Seventy periodontists, including postgraduate students, were evaluated on their awareness on LASER using a validated questionnaire. The answers were recorded, and scoring was given based on their choices. The scores were statistically evaluated.

Results:

The results suggested a profound awareness of LASER (55.7% had more than 3 years of experience and 44.3% had <3 years of experience) toward application for periodontal therapy. Nearly 18.6% of periodontists felt that LASER is a replacement for scalpel, whereas 34.3% felt LASER cannot completely replace scalpel and 47.1% of them felt it debatable. About 34.3% reported LASER as an adjunct, 18.7% reported it to be a standalone surgical tool, and 47.1% of them felt it debatable.

Conclusion:

This study implies that most of the periodontists have profound knowledge on the basic concepts of LASER and its application in periodontal treatment. The study also infers the use of LASER has become more predominant among periodontists in their day-to-day practice.

Authors: Kolli Bhuvana Durga , Pachava Srinivas , Talluri Devaki , Veligatla Satya Madhuri , Patnala Jhansi , Selvaraj Vishnu Kumar
Published: June 2023

Aims:

This study aims to find out the association between self-perceived oral health status, psychological well-being and life satisfaction.

Settings and Design:

A cross-sectional study conducted on 400 geriatric people aged 60 years and above, residing in Tadikonda Mandal of Guntur district, Andhra Pradesh, India.

Subjects and Methods:

Self-perceived oral health was assessed through self-rating of oral health, speaking ability index, chewing capability index, and psychosocial impact scale oral health impact profile. Life satisfaction was assessed through single-item question, How satisfied with your life as a whole with 4 point Likert scale. Psychological well-being was assessed through two domains: Perceived life stress and general health, i.e., anxiety and depression. People who were mentally retarded, bedridden and who were not interested to participate in the study are excluded.

Statistical Analysis Used:

Chi-square, t-test, one way ANOVA test, poison regression analysis.

Results:

A poison regression model with perceived life stress as outcome, depicted that good self-rated oral health subjects had significantly lower perceived life stress scores (prevalence rate ratio [PRR] = 0.762; 0.649–0.894) than poor self-rated oral health subjects which is constant 1. When the outcome was changed to general health in the model, subjects who self-rated oral health as good have lower depression scores (PRR = 0.763; 0.667–0.873) than subjects, who self-rated oral health as poor which is kept constant 1.

Conclusions:

Poorer psychological well-being and lower life satisfaction are co-existing within the poor self-perceived oral health group of elderly, where poor self-rated oral health was found to be an important mediator of quality of life.

Authors: Mohd Suria Affandi Tun Yasmin Iffah , Mokhtar Ilham Wan , Putera Mohd Yusof Mohd Yusmiaidil , Ahmad Mas Suryalis
Published: June 2023

Abstract

Aims and Objectives:

Special care dentistry (SCD) provides oral health care to disabled individuals in an environmental, cultural or social setting that supports their oral health. This study aimed to analyze the profiles of patients managed at an SCD clinic in a teaching hospital based on their sociodemographic background, medical condition or disability, dental diagnosis and treatment provided.

Materials and Methods:

This retrospective audit study included patients seen from the clinic’s inception in January 2017 until June 2022, retrieved from the faculty’s record management system. The pattern of patients seen was arranged on an Excel sheet and analyzed using SPSS. Quantitative data were analyzed via descriptive analysis (frequency) and chi-square test (P < 0.05).

Results:

A 220% surge in the number of patients treated between January 2017 and June 2022, from two to 91 years old, with more male patients seen. Most patients had an intellectual disability (49.7%), followed by medical compromised (16.4%) and genetic conditions or syndromes (12.0%). 43% of had caries, which is more prevalent in women, and 31.6% had periodontal disease, with the majority being between the ages of 21 and 40. Periodontal treatment accounted for most of the dental treatment (76.1%). Even though only a small percentage of endodontic therapy was performed (2.4%), a significant association was found between the treatment, gender and age group of patients seen in the clinic.

Conclusion:

Considering their health profile, oral diagnosis and therapy, this study demonstrated the varied sorts of patients encountered in an SCD specialist clinic. This useful information will be beneficial in the development of a comprehensive care dentistry center for this community.

Authors: Perez Edith , Salinas Liliana , Mendoza Roman , Guerrero Maria Eugenia , Oliva Jose , Mayta-Tovalino Frank
Published: June 2023

Abstract

Aims and Objectives:

The aim of this study was to describe the mechanism of dental implants osseointegration in patients with congenital and degenerative genetic bone disorders.

Materials and Methods:

A PubMed and Scopus documents search was carried out between November 2021 in the, using words such as “osseointegration,” “degenerative disease,” “congenital disease,” and “dental implants.”

Results:

The thirteen articles selected dealt with dental implants osseointegration in patients with congenital and degenerative bone disorders. The influence and repercussion of these diseases on the bone system, as well as the osseointegration process were described from healing to bone remodeling. In addition, certain articles described some considerations to improve the osseointegration process in patients suffering from these types of conditions.

Conclusions:

Within the limitations of this literature review we can conclude that osseointegration in patients with ectodermal dysplasia and osteoporosis could be achieved. However, the planning process for dental implant placement in these patients should be more meticulous and individualized considering the degree of tissue involvement as well as the patient’s age and skeletal development compared to systemically healthy patients.

Authors: Lewis Neil Vincent , Aggarwal Shalini , Borse Nikhil N , Sonawane Shailendra , Dhatavkar Prasanna , Digholkar Rhea , Agarwal Divyanshi
Published: June 2023

Abstract

Aims and Objectives:

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) cause degradation of the dentinal matrix, as they act actively on collagen fibrils, leading to their deterioration and collapse. MMP inhibitors are known to be used for the pre-treatment of human dentin before bonding. Most studies on the MMP inhibitors examined the effect of MMP inhibitors on bonding to sound dentin (SD), but few examine their effect on bonding to caries affected dentin (CAD). This systematic review aims to identify and summarize studies that have applied MMP inhibitors for pre-treatment of CAD, and examine the microtensile bond strength (µTBS), bond durability, and the mode of failure.

Materials and Methods:

A systematic review was performed using the PubMed database according to the PRISMA guidelines. A total of 785 original articles published between 2010 and 2022 were initially retrieved. Six studies were selected based on predefined inclusion–exclusion criteria, and their outcomes were extracted and analyzed. The methodological quality assessment was performed using a combined checklist that utilizes the reporting criteria mentioned in the checklist for reporting in-vitro studies guidelines and guidelines for reporting pre-clinical in vitro studies on dental materials.

Results:

All six studies included here showed a definitive increase of the µTBS when MMP inhibitors were applied to the CAD. The mode of failure was found to be predominantly adhesive in nature. The deviation in the values of µTBS was approximately 2–5 MPa on immediate and delayed testing.

Conclusion:

MMP-inhibiting agents could be considered for the pretreatment of teeth with CAD as a part of their tooth preparation area, thereby allowing the clinician to retain CAD and bond to the CAD without endangering the vital pulp.

Authors: Hernot Sharad , Dogra Rishabh , Kaintura Madhuri , Pillai Dheeraj Shashikumar , Pokharia Lalit , Riar Sahildeep Singh , Gupta Harshit , Dewan Bhavna
Published: June 2023

Purpose:

To compare the external lateral nasal osteotomy with internal osteotomy in patients undergoing closed rhinoplasty with reference to intraoperative bleeding, duration of surgery, the ease of performing osteotomy, postoperative oedema, ecchymosis, and postsurgery esthetic satisfaction of patients.

Materials and Methods:

A total of 100 individuals of either sex with external nasal deformities were enrolled to the study and randomly allocated into two groups: Group I: Internal continuous osteotomy and Group II: External percutaneous perforating osteotomy. Data were collected and analyzed in terms of age and sex distribution, history of associated trauma, presence or absence of deviated nasal septum, presence of intraoperative bleed, the ease of performing each technique, duration of surgery, associated lid edema and ecchymosis, and final aesthetic correction.

Results:

External osteotomy is an easy approach to carry out and makes lateral osteotomy fracture lines with high precision. The damage to the nasal mucosa is much less. There is reduced bleeding, reduced edema and reduced ecchymosis around eyes. The postsurgery esthetic satisfaction is also higher among external osteotomy patients.

Conclusion:

The study concludes that external technique delivers a better and predictable control with precision to maximize the esthetic and functional results while limiting the potential for complication. It causes less tissue injury and provides higher confidence in being able to be performed. Moreover, the postsurgery esthetic satisfaction of Group II patients was higher, making it a preferable option for the surgeon and the patient as well.

Published: June 2023

Introducción: En España han coexistido durante la pandemia de COVID-19 el sistema centinela de vigilancia de infección respiratoria aguda grave (SiVIRA), la notificación individualizada de casos COVID-19 (SIVIES) y el sistema de capacidad asistencial (CMC). El objetivo es comparar las tasas estimadas de casos COVID-19 hospitalizados, así como su gravedad, en los tres sistemas.
Método: Se estimó la tasa semanal de hospitalización COVID-19 (por 100.000 habitantes) total y por grupos de edad y se estimó la proporción de UCI y letalidad entre hospitalizados en 3 periodos: P1=Semanas 40/2021-12/2022; P2=Semanas 13/2022-39/2022; P3=Semanas 40/2022-08/2023.
Resultados: Los tres sistemas mostraron tendencias similares, pero la tasa promedio (casos/100.000) fue superior en todos los periodos en el CMC (P1=11,8; P2=10,7; P3=5,3), que en SiViES (P1=7,7; P2=7,5; P3=3,7) y SiVIRA (P1=6,4; P2=5,6; P3=1,8). La mayor diferencia fue en los grupos de 5-14 y 15-44 años (2,2-2,3 veces más en SiViES vs SiVIRA), donde además las tasas de SiVIRA eran más inestables y la menor diferencia en los grupos de ≥45 años (1,3 veces más en SiViES vs SiVIRA). No se observaron diferencias sistemáticas en el porcentaje que requirió UCI (rango en los diferentes periodos: SiVIRA 3,8-9,8%; SiViES 4,5-7,7%; CMC 5,2-9,7%) ni en la letalidad (rango: SiVIRA 8,2-14,0%; SIVIES 6,2-12,1%).
Conclusiones: SiVIRA, SiViES y el CMC resultaron igualmente válidos para la monitorización de las tasas de hospitalización por COVID-19. SiVIRA realizó una captación de casos más específica, con menores tasas estimadas, especialmente en edades <45 años y en la última temporada 2022/23.

Introducción: La infección por el virus mpox (antes denominado viruela del mono) es una zoonosis endémica en África Occidental y Central. En mayo de 2022 aparecieron los primeros casos en Europa sin antecedentes de viajes o contacto con casos que han dado lugar a un gran brote declarado como Emergencia de Salud Pública de Importancia Internacional (ESPII) por la Organización Mundial de la Salud.
Método: Análisis descriptivo de las características epidemiológicas, clínicas y relacionadas con la exposición de los casos afectados en España por el brote de mpox durante abril-diciembre de 2022, notificados a la Red Nacional de Vigilancia.
Resultados: Se registraron 7.498 casos confirmados de infección por mpox, siendo Madrid y Cataluña las CCAA más afectadas. La mayoría de los casos eran hombres de origen español. El pico de la curva epidémica se alcanzó en la semana 27 con 784 casos. Un 71,8% de los pacientes presentaron sintomatología general y el 63,1% exantema anogenital; se observaron diferencias significativas en la clínica por sexo y edad. En el 82,4% de los casos la transmisión se atribuyó a un contacto sexual. Un 8,7% presentaron complicaciones, un 3,7% fueron hospitalizados y se produjeron tres fallecimientos.
Conclusiones: El brote de mpox en España ha presentado gran magnitud, siendo el primer país de Europa y el tercero del mundo en número de casos. El perfil de los afectados fue de un hombre adulto joven con transmisión predominantemente sexual a diferencia de brotes previos. En general la evolución clínica fue favorable, aunque se registraron fallecimientos.
WARIS DALAM PRESPEKTIF PEMIKIRAN MUHAMMAD SHAHRUR: SEBUAH PENDEKATAN TEORI HUDUD
Authors: Bagus Setiawan  , Waldi Nopriansyah  , Nova Yanti Maleha
Published: June 2023

Al-Qur'an has determined the amount of inheritance distribution to the heirs. Regarding the issue of inheritance distribution, Shahrur then criticized that inheritance distribution had so far been considered rigid and not in accordance with the demands of social development, especially with regard to the issue of inheritance distribution for women. Therefore, this article discusses inheritance from the perspective of Muhammad Shahrur. This research method is qualitative. The results of the research show that Shahrur criticizes the distribution of inheritance between men and women, which is proportional to 2:1, is not absolute, and can change according to certain conditions. The theory of hudud or limitations is a solution to solving problems regarding inheritance rights. Through his hudud theory, a fair and equitable distribution of inheritance can be realized if the number of men and women is the same, for example; 1 boy + 1 girl, 2 boys + 2 girls, and so on. In addition, Syahrur emphasized the priority of wills over the inheritance. This is because the choice is closer to the value of the principle of justice or equity.
Exploring L2 English Proficiency and Translation of Academic English Vocabulary
Authors: Skjelde Kimberly
Published: June 2023

Knowledge of academic English vocabulary is essential for upper secondary L2 English learners preparing for university studies, yet previous research suggests students in Scandinavian settings may need support to acquire this lexis (Edgarsson, 2017; Henriksen & Danelund, 2015). The abundance of Graeco-Latin cognates between European languages and academic English has been shown to lessen the learning burden of academic English vocabulary for speakers of Romance languages (Cobb, 2000; Petrescu et al., 2017). However, less research has been conducted for speakers of Scandinavian languages who also have appropriate translations of Germanic origin for this vocabulary. Interestingly, previous studies have indicated that proficient Norwegian-speaking students taking tertiary studies made extensive use of Graeco-Latin cognates when translating academic English vocabulary, but research has yet to expand this investigation to upper secondary students and across proficiency levels. Therefore, the current study investigated if Norwegian-speaking students (N= 132) in their first year of upper secondary education produced Graeco-Latin cognates when translating academic English. Findings showed extensive use of L1 Latinate cognate forms to translate the English target words. However, less proficient learners had significantly fewer cognate translations and significantly more untranslated target words than more proficient learners. Findings suggest that in-class instruction raising awareness of Graeco-Latin cognates in academic English may be worthwhile, especially for less-proficient learners.

Authors: Jilek Petr
Published: June 2023

Příspěvek se zabývá možností přivedení silničního vozidla na hranici smyku, a to při bezpečné rychlosti. Navození smyku vozidla je docíleno snížením adhezní síly na vozidlových kolech vlivem snížení radiální rekce na příslušných vozidlových kolech. Cílem příspěvku je porovnat případné odlišnosti v chování experimentálního vozidla se systémem skluzového rámu vůči jízdě experimentálního vozidla na skluzovém povrchu. V obou případech je monitorován pohyb vozidla za snížené adhezní síly. Skluzový rám je pomocné zařízení se čtyřmi podpěrnými koly, který je připevněn k vozidlu. Pomocí hydraulického posunu podpěrných kol je možné snížit radiální reakce přenášené vozidlovými koly. Pro snížení adhezní síly přenášené vozidlovými koly je část dané radiální reakce vozidlového kola přenášena pomoci přídavných podpěrných kol. Skluzový povrch je speciálně upravený prostor, kde povrch tvoří speciální folie, která při skrápění vodou má výrazně nižší součinitel adheze než klasický živičný povrch. Při zpracování příspěvku byla provedena experimentální měření pro oba jízdní režimy, která byla vzájemně porovnána. Za jízdní zkoušku byl zvolen vyhýbací manévr mezi kužely. Systém Alternativního SkidCaru napomáhá ke vzniku libovolného druhu smyku vzhledem k podélné, tak i příčné rovině vozidla, kterého na skluzovém povrchu není možné dosáhnout. Alternativní SkidCar má své uplatnění v oblasti jako prvotní nástroj k ověřování nově vyvíjených elektronických systémů automobilu a ke zvyšování bezpečnosti silničního provozu při výcviku řidičů. Při sestavení zkušebního koridoru pro sytém Alternativního SkidCaru došlo k úpravě oproti skluzovému povrchu. Protože Alterntivní SkidCar přesahuje půdorys voidla, museli jsme za tímto účelem uzpůsobit sestavení koridoru oproti skluzovému povrchu. Z vyhodnocení naměřených průběhů je patrné, že systém Alternativní SkidCaru je možné použít pro změnu adhezní síly přenášené vozidlovými koly. Hmotnost rámu ASC dosahuje ¼ pohotovostní hmotnosti automobilu, proto výsledné naměřené charakteristiky nabývají mírně odlišných průběhů, přesto je ale použitelný.

Neočakávaný vývoj ochorenia COVID-19 sa významným spôsobom podpísal na cestovných návykoch spoločnosti. Už pred pandémiou mali výkony vo verejnej osobnej dopravy klesajúci charakter a vysoký nárast bol zaznamenaný v individuálnej automobilovej doprave. Výskyt ochorenia COVID-19 tento negatívny trend významne posilnil a IAD sa stala preferovanou voľbou cestujúcich. Uvedený príspevok sa zaoberá dopadom opatrení zavedených v prvom polroku 2020 na železničnú osobnú dopravu v Slovenskej republike za účelom spomalenia šírenia vírusu počas prvej vlny pandémie COVID-19. Hlavným cieľom príspevku je skúmať a analyzovať prepad prepravných výkonov v jednotlivých mesiacoch prvého polroku 2020 a následne odhadnúť vplyv týchto zmien na sektor osobnej železničnej dopravy. Prepravné výkony sú následne analyzované na troch významných prepravných reláciách v Slovenskej republike, pričom sú porovnávané roky 2018, 2019 a 2020. Všeobecne sa očakáva, že isté obdobie po skončení pandemickej situácie môžu byť kritické pre zabezpečenie dlhodobého a udržateľného rozvoja v rámci železničnej dopravy.

Pandémia COVID-19 ovplyvnila mnohé aspekty nášho každodenného života. Vlády prijali množstvo opatrení na obmedzenie šírenia pandémie, ktorá mala priamy vplyv na každodennú mobilitu, výber spôsobu dopravy a fungovanie verejnej dopravy. Tieto opatrenia boli do praxe implementované okamžite, bez koncepčnej systematickej prípravy. Príspevok je zameraný na návrh opatrení pre skvalitnenie a zefektívnenie prepravného procesu v železničnej osobnej doprave v ďalšom období pandémie. V procese vybavenia cestujúceho cestovným dokladom v období pandémie sú implementované nové technicko-technologické prvky v železničných staniciach a vlakoch pre zníženie rizika prenosu vírusu s cieľom ochrany zdravia cestujúceho a zamestnancov dopravcu. Zavedením modernejších systémov vybavenia cestujúceho v železničnej osobnej doprave formou automatizácie a digitalizácie procesov je možné zefektívniť a skvalitniť prepravný proces.

Článek popisuje teoretická východiska, metody a výslednou strukturu vytvořeného katalogu neřidičských činností při jízdě v autonomních silničních vozidlech úrovně 3 a 4. V provedeném výzkumu byly využity dvě základní metody, a to analýza právních předpisů a norem, dále pak ohniskové skupiny s profesionálními řidiči, dispečery, manažery logistiky, experty na HMI, bezpečnost silničního provozu a dalšími zainteresovanými subjekty. Na jejich základě byl vytvořen katalog neřidičských činností. Ten se skládá ze tří základních částí, přičemž první dvě se zaměřují na čtvrtou úroveň (L4) a poslední z nich na úroveň třetí (L3). Všechny části obsahují 4 hierarchické úrovně. Na nejvyšší hierarchické úrovni je zařazeno celkem jedenáct kategorií neřidičských činností: přestávka v řízení, jiná práce (řidiče), pracovní pohotovost, práce (v dopravě), práce (mimo dopravu), dále pak práce (obecné aktivity), relaxace, zábava, vzdělávání, fyziologické potřeby a péče o tělo. Katalog bude přístupný na vlastní doméně ve formě specializované databáze. Bude sloužit široké škále uživatelů z řad managementu dopravních firem, Ministerstva dopravy, subjektů v oblasti vzdělávání, výrobců a prodejců vozidel i samotných řidičů.
Көне ұйғыр және қазіргі қазақ тілдерін құрылымдық тұрғыдан салыстыру («Бүгү Қағанның манихейзмді қабылдауы» атты көне ұйғыр тіліндегі мәтін негізінде)

Мақалада көне ұйғыр тілі мен қазіргі қазақ тілі грамматикалық тұрғыдан (грамматикалық талдау жасау негізінде) салыстырыла қарастырылды. Көне ұйғыр тілі - басқа түркі тілдері сияқты қазіргі қазақ тілінің де шығу тегі болып табылатын көне түркі тілінің бір тармағы. Мақаланы жазудағы мақсат – Қазақстандағы түркология ғылымының ең аз зерттелген бөлігі көне ұйғыр тілінің ерекшеліктерін қазақ тілінің грамматикасымен салыстыра отырып қарастыру, зерделеу. Мақаланы жазу барысында VIII – IX ғасырларда қолданылған көне ұйғыр тілі мен қазіргі қазақ тілінің грамматикалық құрылымы (аз-кем айырмашылықтарын қоспағанда) бірдей екендігі ашып көрсетілді. Қазіргі қазақ тіліндегі түбір сөздер мен оларға жалғанатын қосымшалардың сол бастапқы, тарихи мағынасын жоғалтпаған қалпында қолданылатындығы зерделенді. Мысалдармен дәлелдеу мақсатында көне ұйғыр тіліндегі тұпнұсқа мәтіннен тұтас сөйлемдерді алып қазіргі қазақ тілінің стандарты негізінде грамматикалық тұрғыдан талдау жасалып берілді. Мақалада

«Бүгү Қағанның манихейзмді қабылдауы» атты көне ұйғыр тілінде жазылған мәтіндегі сөздер пайдаланылды. Неміс – Тұрпан экспедициясы барысында табылған бұл мәтін қазіргі

Моңғолия жеріндегі Ұйғыр хандығы заманында үшінші ұйғыр қағаны болған Бүгү Қаған (759-780) тұсында 762-763 жылдары манихейзм дінін қабылдаған уақыттарда жазылған. Біз пайдаланып отырған мәтін түрік ғалымы, түрколог Б. Өзбайдың еңбегінен алынған үзінді. Мәтіндегі сөздердің көпшілігінің бүгінгі қазақ тілінде аздаған өзгеріске ұшырап немесе мүлде өзгермей, сол қалпында қолданылуы қызығушылығымызды арттырғандықтан грамматикалық талдау жасап салыстыра қарастыру жөн саналды. Мақалада жүзге тарта сөз лексикалық тұрғыдан салыстырып, мүмкіндігінше талдап көрсетілді. Сондай - ақ, жұмысты жазу барысында қазіргі қазақ тілінің сөздік қоры көне түркі сөздеріне бай екендігіне тағы да дәлелденді.

Бұл мақала осы салаға ғылыми және практикалық үлес қосуды көздейді. Қазақ тілінің тарихы мен түркі тілдерінің тарихы бойынша оқу құралы ретінде пайдалануға болады. Сонымен қатар, бұл еңбек түркология ғылымының қазақ ғылымы аз зерттелген салаларының бірі саналатын көне ұйғыр тілі саласындағы олқылықтың орнын толтыруға ықпал ететіндігімен де маңызды. Мақалада салыстырмалы және диахрондық салыстырмалы әдістер қолданылды.
Unión Europea y medio ambiente
Authors: Muñiz Pérez Julio César
Published: June 2023

La Unión Europea desarrolla tempranamente la perspectiva ambiental en sus políticas de tal forma que la configuración del medio ambiente como valor jurídico de la Unión va de la mano de la internacionalización general, como fenómeno histórico, del movimiento ecologista. De este modo se desarrolla lo que podemos definir como política ambiental de la Unión Europea, pero a ésta debemos añadir la transversalidad de la materia, determinando a otras políticas entre las que destaca la política energética o la política pesquera. Esto la convierte en un ámbito notablemente interdisciplinar y con gran potencial en el desarrollo de nuevos proyectos comunitarios. De hecho, se están produciendo importantes avances a nivel internacional, lográndose la gestión ambiental del mar desde la perspectiva de la protección del mercado interior.
seguridad privada en España y su evolución en materia legislativa
Authors: Pastor Sánchez Jose Ángel
Published: June 2023

En el presente artículo vamos a ver el origen y evolución de la seguridad privada, desde las primeras figuras surgidas en una época de notoria inseguridad para cubrir ciertas necesidades donde el Estado no alcanzaba hasta nuestros días, así como la legislación reguladora de sus competencias que necesariamente ha ido derivando de la misma. También se tratarán aspectos futuros acerca las fuerzas y cuerpos de seguridad del estado a raíz del tema COVID-19 y su respectiva pandemia, con los consecuentes daños que ha conllevado. Se hará un especial hincapié en la guardia civil, su actuación, y su cooperación y colaboración para con el resto de los cuerpos de seguridad, tanto de ámbito público como privado. Finalmente se tocarán aspectos relacionados con el terrorismo, así como policías europeas, Europol y Eurojust.

Geotechnical Properties of Soils in Abu Al-Khasib City, Southern Iraq
Authors: Mahmood Ra’id
Published: July 2023

To investigate some geotechnical characteristics of the soils in a chosen area of Abu Al-Khasib city, Basrah Governorate, southern Iraq, nine boreholes that range in depth from 10 to 32 meters were drilled. Based on the results of standard penetration tests and particle size analysis the Quaternary deposits, which extend vertically to a depth of 32 meters, are divided into 8 layers with varying bearing capacities depending on their consistency and compactness. These layers are Medium stiff brown lean clay, soft and very soft gray lean clay, medium stiff gray lean clay, stiff gray lean clay, medium denes gray silty sand, denes gray silty sand , hard gray clay-silt-sand mixture and very dense gray silty sand. The first layer's bearing capacity is 140 kN/m2, so it is considered as moderately adequate to support the isolated, strip,or raft shallow foundations of various light buildings in the study region, and soil improvement techniques, especially mechanical methods, are required. Different types of deep foundations such as piles and well foundations for heavy constructions must be extended to depths of 27 and 30 meters, which represents the 7th and 8th layers of high bearing capacity (640-760, 1100 kN/m2 respectively) in the study area. Inorganic clays with low plasticity are the most common classification for samples. The soils of the study area are considered highly compressible soils and have medium expansion degree which must be taken into account when constructing shallow foundations to minimize damage to buildings. The percentages of sulphates, total dissolved salts, organic content, and gypsum content are minimal and considered ineffective, whereas the percentages of carbonates and chlorides are high and affect the safety of shallow foundations. In the study site, the groundwater is around 0.5 m deep.
