Authors: Petridis Athanasios K. , Fischer Igor , Maslehaty Humajoun
Published: April 2023

Introduction

In the present letter we share the results of an analysis of more than 140,000 non traumatic arterial subarachnoid hemorrhages whereas the majority of them is expected to be after aneurysm rupture, in which we investigate a possible correlation of climatic changes and emotional bursts as correlating factors for such a rupture.

Methods

We obtained the daily number of SAH from 2006 to 2018 for males and females from the German National statistics agency. The ICD codes provided to us were I60.1-I60.7, which are SAHs originating from intracranial arteries and excluding traumatic SAH and other not specified SAH.

Results

An increase of mean SAH per day could be seen in winter compared to summer and family events seemed to have a protective effect against aneurysmal SAH. Additionally 6.55 more women per day suffer an SAH compared to men.

Conclusion

There is a statistical significant higher risk of aneurysm ruptures in winter and in females, and a statistical lower number in Mother’s day.

Authors: Mikhaylova Marina
Published: April 2023

The article presents the results of studies conducted on gray forest soils of the Ancestral region of the Republic of Tatarstan in 2021-2022 to study the productivity and adaptability of twelve corn hybrids of different precocity breeding FGBNU "Corn Research Institute" Siberian-135, Mashuk-140, Nur, K-160, K-165, Baikal, K-170, Mashuk-171, Mashuk-172, Newton, Mashuk-220, Mashuk-250. Characteristics of the experimental site: humus content is low 3.8%, mobile phosphorus is very high 288 mg / kg of soil and potassium exchange increased 153 mg / kg of soil. The reaction of the soil environment is close to neutral. Analyzing the indicators, the early-maturing three-line hybrid Baikal turned out to be the most productive. Even under stressful climatic conditions, the average plant height of the hybrid was 256.5 cm, the biological yield was 8.29 t/ha, the aboveground mass in the phase of milk ripeness of grain was 64.30 t/ha and the leaf area was 43.56 thousand m2/ha. At the same time, the qualitative characteristics of the Baikal hybrid grain were not lost. The protein content was 10.31%, starch 61.10%. Also, a high level of grain yield was obtained from the average early hybrid Mashuk-250 – 8.13 t/ha. This is 0.16 t/ha less than that of the Baikal hybrid. Early-maturing Nur and Mashuk-171 hybrids had a yield of 7.92 t/ha (0.37 t/ha less than the maximum value). The highest protein content was found in the grain of the ultra-ripe hybrid Siberian–135 - 11.31%. The highest starch content was in the grain of the Newton hybrid – 68.29%. The lowest grain yield was obtained when cultivating the Mashuk-220 hybrid (6.07 t/ha). The protein and starch content in the grain of this hybrid is average (9.31% and 62.22%).

Published: April 2023

The article presents experimental material on the study of the seeding rate for various nutrition backgrounds on the development of spring soft wheat and spelt wheat, the nature of stem formation, which has an important effect on the formation of grain yield. The purpose of this work is to study the reaction of spring wheat species to the level of application of mineral fertilizers at different seeding rates in the conditions of gray forest soil of the Republic of Tatarstan. Field studies were carried out on the territory of Agrobiotechnopark LLC of the Kazan State Agrarian University. The material for research is spring soft wheat (Triticum aestivum) varieties Ulyanovsk 105 and Tulaykovskaya Nadezhda and spelt wheat (Triticum dicoccum) varieties Srednevolzhskaya and Fleece. In 2022, meterological conditions during the growing season of spring wheat were characterized by sufficient soil moisture and temperature conditions. During the entire growing season of spring wheat, 158.9 precipitation fell (GTK-1.35). The formation of the agrocenosis of spring wheat species is mainly determined by seeding rates, as well as field germination and biological resistance of plants during the growing season. At both nutrition levels, as the seeding rate increases from 4 to 7 million germinating seeds per 1 ha, the number of seedlings of both soft and spelt wheat increases. On control (natural background) soft wheat varieties Ulyanovsk 105 from 347 to 539 pcs / m2, fertilized version 344-534 pcs / m2, Tulaykovskaya Nadezhda 340-528 pcs / m2 and 336-522 pcs / m2, respectively, fertilization increased the yield of both types of wheat at all seeding rates: soft wheat varieties Ulyanovsk 105 at 4 million 0.93 tons, 5 million - 1.15 tons, 6 million - 1.17 tons and 7 million - 1.16 tons per ha. Varieties Tulaykovskaya Nadezhda 1.08; 1.1, 1.1; and 1.15 t/ha, respectively. Spelt wheat of the Srednevolzhskaya variety has 0.14; 0.34; 0.45 and 0.3 t/ha per ha. Fleece 0.37; 0.23; 0.22 and 0.35 t / ha, respectively. The highest yield of both types of spring wheat for the studied varieties in the growing season of 2022 was formed both on the control and on the fertilized version of the experiment when sowing 5 million. germinating seeds per 1 hectare.

Authors: Matos Alexandre , Santos Vanda , B. Neto Teresa
Published: April 2023

This article presents the analysis and discussion of solving geometry tasks by Portuguese Basic Education students, using material from the Poly-UNiverse in Teacher Training Education (PUNTE) project. The teaching experience developed was aimed at testing and disseminating new resources, and innovative and transdisciplinary methodologies in the areas of Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Mathematics (STEAM). The adopted methodology involved two phases. The first phase was exploratory, followed by a second phase where the exploration of geometry concepts in the plane (namely, the perimeter and the similarity of triangles) was carried out using the Poly-Universe material. The results of the study show that the Poly-Universe materials constituted an important teaching resource in solving the proposed tasks. Its manipulation allowed the visualisation of the situations involved in the tasks, as well as contributed to an implication in the activities developed by the students.
Reconstruction of paleoglacial equilibrium-line altitudes during the Last Glacial Maximum in the Diancang Massif, Northwest Yunnan Province, China
Authors: Zeng Hongyun , Li Peng , Zhu Yunqiang , Zhang Jinqu , Zhao Xiaoqin
Published: April 2023

Equilibrium-line altitudes (ELAs) are an important proxy of the fluctuations and mass–balance characteristics of glaciers and have been widely used to reconstruct regional paleoclimatic conditions. The Diancang Massif, which has experienced the well-known "Tali Glacial Stage" was uplifted during MIS 3b (marine isotope stages). With its unique characteristics, the Diancang Massif has become an irreplaceable area for the study of inland paleoclimatic and paleo-environmental changes in China. Nevertheless, despite the considerable amount of glaciological studies on this area, a detailed and systematic estimation of paleoglacial ELAs during the Last Glacial Maximum remains to be performed. In this study, several approaches are employed to estimate the ELAs on the basis of previous studies. The results are compared and analyzed, and the final results are determined using a weighted arithmetic average method. Finally, the weighted root mean square error is applied to evaluate the accuracy of the results. Moreover, two critical parameters, differences between positive and negative effects and the distance ratio between the accumulation area and ablation area, are discussed in detail. In the comprehensive results, the final estimated paleoglacial ELAs of the north slope of “Yuju Peak” and the south slope of “Longquan Peak” are 3,773 and 3,883 m, and their median errors are 18.73 and 45.00 m, respectively. Overall, paleoglacial ELAs in the Diancang Massif could be systematically and scientifically estimated for the first time, which is expected to provide fundamental data for accurate modeling of paleoclimatic changes in this area.
Urban Success and Urban Adaptation Over the Long Run
Authors: Smith Michael E.
Published: April 2023

One of archaeology’s principal contributions to knowledge is its ability to track human actions and social conditions over long periods of time. I describe an approach to operationalizing this insight for the rise and fall of cities and other settlement over time. Cities that survive and thrive are considered successful, and urban success can be measured along three dimensions: persistence, population, and prosperity. Successful cities were those whose leaders, residents, and institutions found ways to adapt to a range of shocks and conditions, including the environment, local institutions, and regional political and economic forces. Urban success is therefore due to processes of urban adaptation that operated over long periods of time. I outline a conceptual and methodological approach to urban success and position the concept with respect to notions of adaptation and time scales in sustainability science and the social and historical sciences more broadly.

Published: April 2023

In this article, the influence of trapezoidal magnetization method on cogging torque of permanent magnet motor is studied. First, the structure is analyzed by analytical method to explain its mechanism of reducing cogging torque. Then, in order to verify the effectiveness of the formula, a six-slot four-pole motor is introduced for finite element analysis. Through comparison of the original structure motor, the magnet skew structure motor, and the trapezoidal magnetic pole structure motor, it demonstrates that the trapezoidal magnetic pole structure motor can effectively reduce the Cogging torque and does not produce additional axial electromagnetic force. Finally, a magnetizing fixture with a trapezoidal magnetic pole structure is made to magnetize the magnetic ring. The magnetized magnetic ring is installed on the motor, and the Cogging torque, Back EMF, etc., are tested. The test results are in good agreement with the simulation results. This method can be used to optimize the cogging torque of the permanent magnet motor.
Legal Transplants: Applying Arms Control Frameworks to Autonomous Weapons
Authors: AKKUŞ Berkant
Published: April 2023

The Geneva Conventions and Additional Protocols that regulate the law of armed conflict are insufficient to interpret autonomous weapon systems, which are among the modern weapon technologies that will be actively used by armies in the near future. This article focuses on autonomous weapon systems, which are not yet subject to regulation in terms of international law and which are still under debate with regard to prohibition in the global arena, and examines whether they can be an alternative for autonomous weapon systems by examining the regulations previously prepared on landmines, incendiary weapons, and cluster munitions through legal transplants. As a result of the conclusions reached in the article, recommendations will be shared on the content and legal status of the international humanitarian law manuals that should be prepared for autonomous weapon systems.
Politik Psikoloji Bağlamında Siyasal Bir Aktör Olarak Alparslan Türkeş'in Milliyetçilik Anlayışı
Authors: ÖZKAN Ahmet , ÖZER Burak
Published: April 2023

Türk siyasi hayatında pek çok önemli şahsiyet varlık göstermiş, ancak bu şahsiyetlerden pek azı fikirlerini, düşünce dünyalarını ve duygularını geleceğe aktarabilmiştir. Geleceğe aktarım sağlayabilen bu isimlerden ön plana çıkan bir tanesi de Alparslan Türkeş olmuştur. Türkeş, asker kökenli bir siyasetçi olup hayata gözlerini yumduktan sonra dahi Türk siyasal hayatına yön verebilmeyi başarabilmiş nadir bir şahsiyet olarak kabul edilmektedir. Özellikle 1960 darbesi sonrasında milliyetçiliği, Türkçülük mefhumu etrafında kenetlemeyi başarabilmiş ve Türkçülük mefhumunu kurduğu siyasal partiyle kemikleştirebilmiş bir aktör olmuştur. Sonrasında ise Türk siyasal hayatındaki özgül ağırlığı dolayısıyla pek çok politik gelişmede aktif rol oynayan bir politikacı olarak ön plana çıkmıştır. Bu sebeple çalışmamızda, milliyetçilik mefhumunu şekillendiren ve dönüştüren bir lider olarak Türkeş’in felsefesi ve düşünceleri politik psikoloji bağlamında ele alınacak ve bir çerçeve ortaya konmaya çalışılacaktır.
Doctor Repeats of Patient Responses in Vietnamese Medical Consultations
Authors: Nguyễn Hương Thị Linh , Austin Gavin
Published: April 2023

This study examines doctor repeats of patient responses in medical interaction. These repeats lie at the third turn in a three-turn sequence: doctor question, patient response, and doctor follow-up utterance. The data were taken from 66 consultations held in the Consultation and General Practice Units of two public hospitals in Vietnam. Using a conversation-analytical approach, we reveal that doctor repeats in this specific cultural context serve to highlight the importance of the information provided by the patient for forming diagnostic hypotheses and recommending optimal treatment plans. In so doing, we also show that, in terms of function, doctor repeats differ in certain key respects from repeats in non-medical conversation.

Drama strategies refer to the methods and processes used by language instructors for many years. These strategies are intended to involve learners in the creative process while exploring a concept, narrative, or thought. The students are encouraged to develop inquiry skills and use their imagination to gain understanding when theatre techniques are used. This study is intended to identify the impact of narratives in Playback Theatre that develops the oracy skills of the second language learners. The students pursuing bachelors’ degree have been surveyed from Tamil Nadu, India. The aspects with respect to Oracy skills namely vocabulary, intended meaning, structure grammar, pronunciation and pragmatic have been evaluated. The study also examines whether the relationship between the independent and dependent variables is moderated by the medium of instruction i. e. Playback theatre-based instruction influenced the oratory skills of the second language learners. The outcome shows that intended meaning and pragmatics are the most influential factor than vocabulary, pronunciation and structure grammar. The results show that teaching through Playback Theatre through collaborative learning enhances the oracy skills of the bachelor degree students.
On Consist of and Made up of: A Corpora-Based Analysis
Authors: Kang Namkil
Published: April 2023

The ultimate goal of this article is to show that consist of and made up of are somewhat different in their use. It is worth pointing out that the type made up of (1,129 tokens) may be preferable to the type consist of (993 tokens) in the UK. A further point to note is that consist of is 57.14% the same as made up of. Talking about consist of and made up of in the Hansard Corpus (20, April 2022. Online https://english-corpora.org /hansard/), the former is preferable to the latter in the British parliament. Quite interestingly, consist of was the most preferable one (942 tokens) for British politicians in 1960, but it was the least preferred one (49 tokens) in 1800. On the other hand, made up of reached a peak (1,020 tokens) in the British parliament in 1990. More importantly, the BNC (20, April 2022. Online https://corpus.byu.edu/bnc) shows that consist of people is the most frequently used one in the UK, whereas made up of people and made up of representatives are the most widely used ones. Finally, it is worthwhile noting that 6.66% of forty five nouns are the collocations of both consist of and made up of.
Vietnamese Concepts of Love Through Idioms: A Conceptual Metaphor Approach
Authors: Giang Dang Nguyen
Published: April 2023

Love (romantic love) is an abstract concept that requires explanation. In addition to the universality of the concept, each nation has their own constructs of love, which can be expressed through idioms. Idioms represent special linguistic units because they contain cultural characteristics and national views. Idioms also reflect the colour and variety of human social activities and thus play an important role in the linguistic ontologisation of love. This paper aims to explore the Vietnamese concepts of love through idioms from a cognitive linguistic perspective. Conceptual metaphor theory (introduced by Lakoff & Johnson, 1980/2003) is a tool that allows the abstract target domain (LOVE) to be understood through more tangible source domains. To collect the data, a hand search of Vietnamese idiom dictionaries was conducted to establish a corpus of 126 entries, from which nine common conceptual metaphors were identified. Results from this study show that Vietnamese people regard LOVE as a predestined fate, in which the beauty of love in conjunction with nostalgia, passion, compatibility and closeness is praised, faithfulness in love is appreciated and revered, and inappropriate relationships and betrayal in love are opposed and condemned.
“Economy Struggle to Escape Coronacoma”: Compound Word Formation Processes of COVID-19 Related Terms in Online English News Articles
Authors: Kuswoyo Heri , Sujatna Eva Tuckyta Sari
Published: April 2023

This study aimed to uncover the types of compound word formation and how the compound word formation processes of related new terms in the COVID-19 pandemic's online English news articles were formed. This study used Lieber (2009) and Plag’s (2002) compound word formation frameworks. The data were obtained from ten news articles related to the COVID-19 pandemic using a qualitative descriptive method. The results showed that there were so varied types of the derivation of compound word processes, namely coordinative, subordinative, and attributive. Meanwhile, based on the stress of compound, the study found that there were noun compound, endocentric compounds, exocentric compounds, and copulative compounds. The results of this study indicated that attributive compounds and subordinate compounds are equally dominant in the analysis. Besides, the findings revealed that noun is the most dominant words than verb or adverb. To conclude, the present study provides both theoretical and practical implications.
Faking the Arabic Imagination Till We Make it: Language and Symbol Representation in the Indonesian E-Commerce
Authors: Nawas Kamaluddin Abu , Amir Abdul Muiz , Syariati Alim , Gunawan Fahmi
Published: April 2023

This study aimed to examine the relationship between Arabization and Islamization discourses by Arabic commodification in the Muslim’s branding construction in Indonesian e-commerce media. Previous studies on Arabic commodification related to Islamism ideology were limited to textbooks, speeches, regulations, and news narratives. Similar practices can also occur in the digital economy by representing labels or brands of e-commerce products and services. The data collected was based on store labels, brands, and product descriptions using Arabic theological terms. It was then analyzed using a digital ethnographic design that combines an interdisciplinary approach to critical discourse analysis (CDA) and critical hermeneutics studies. The results showed that labels on Indonesian e-commerce contain pious political-economic ideology through Arabic commodification. This is represented by Muslim merchant agents that insert dogmatic theological terms as store labels, product brands, and descriptions. The practices are used as sellers and missionary tools to attract public attention to the positive Islamic economics image. This strategy has gained the trust of Muslim consumers in Indonesia regarding product quality and service satisfaction. Therefore, this study implied that some digital e-commerce businesses in non-Arab Muslim countries created Islamic missionary-based marketing.

Authors: Alhalholi Shireen I. , Awajan Nasaybah W.
Published: April 2023

The study aims to compare and contrast how diasporic Arab writers, Fadia Faqir and Diana Abu-Jaber, both present Arab women in their respective novels, My Name is Salma and Crescent.  This study was conducted using the theories of post colonialism. Hence, the researcher relies on Edward Said’s views on Orientalism in analyzing both novels. The study concludes with how both Faqir and Abu Jaber represent Arab women characters in different ways in their works, My Name is Salma and Crescent, respectively. Abu Jaber tries to negate the stereotypical images known in the West about Arab women through representing independent, confident, educated Arab women characters in Crescent, this depiction contrasts with Fadia Faqir’s representation of Arab women in her novel My Name is Salma in which she reflects the stereotypical images of the oppressed, submissive, and dependent Arab woman.
Social portrait and features of the medical behavior of consumers of medical services in the Moscow region health system: A medico-sociological study
Authors: Reshetnikov Andrey V. , Sobolev Konstantin E. , Marochkina Elena B.
Published: April 2023

BACKGROUND: The healthcare system is the most important social institution affecting the life of each member of Russian society. To improve the organization of the provision of medical care to citizens in the context of long-term program-oriented strategic planning for health development in the region, it is necessary to take into account the interests, expectations, and requests of patients (as consumers of medical services) regarding the quality of medical care, staffing, and the material, technical, and technological equipment of medical organizations.
AIM: Construction of a social portrait of consumers of medical services of the healthcare system of the Moscow region, taking into account the socio-demographic and socioeconomic characteristics of patients and the salient characteristics of their medical behavior.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study (a questionnaire survey of 531 patients) was conducted in FebruaryMay 2022 based on the Moscow Regional Research Clinical Institute named after M.F. Vladimirsky. The subject of the study was consumers of medical services at the institute at the age of 18 years, permanently residing in the Moscow region. The survey participants were recruited based on the calculated selective population, with quotas by sex and age. The thematic sections of the questionnaire focused on the study of the level of satisfaction of respondents with the medical services received, the characteristics of their medical behavior and attitudes to their health, and the analysis of the main socio-demographic characteristics of patients (gender, age, social and family status, education, and financial situation).
RESULTS: The study, conducted among residents of the Moscow region, made it possible to determine their attitude to their health, the level of satisfaction with the medical service received, features of medical behavior, and experience of interaction with medical workers (primarily doctors), including conflict situations. It has been established that among patients, a positive assessment of the quality of the medical services they receive prevails, most of them prefer to receive information about diseases, methods of treatment, and drugs from medical professionals, and they tend to trust doctors and comply with their prescriptions. When patients experience conflict situations, this most often happens with registry workers and is mainly due to the difficulty of getting an appointment with a doctor.
CONCLUSION: The study identified the most characteristic features of medical behavior and described a social portrait of a typical consumer of medical services in the Moscow region.
Establishing Self-Healing and Seamless Connectivity among IoT Networks Using Kalman Filter
Authors: Srinidhi N. N. , Shreyas J. , Naresh E.
Published: April 2023

The Internet of Things (IoT) is the extension of Internet connectivity into physical devices and to everyday objects. Efficient mobility support in IoT provides seamless connectivity to mobile nodes having restrained resources in terms of energy, memory and link capacity. Existing routing algorithms have less reactivity to mobility. So, in this work, a new proactive mobility support algorithm based on the Kalman Filter has been proposed. Mobile nodes are provided with a seamless connectivity by minimizing the switching numbers between point of attachment which helps in reducing signaling overhead and power consumption. The handoff trigger scheme which makes use of mobility information in order to predict handoff event occurrence is used.  Mobile nodes new attachment points and its trajectory is predicted using the Kalman-Filter. Kalman-Filter is a predictor-estimator method used for movement prediction is used in this approach. Kalman Filtering is carried out in two steps: i) Predicting and ii) Updating. Each step is investigated and coded as a function with matrix input and output. Self-healing characteristics is being considered in the proposed algorithm to prevent the network from failing and to help in efficient routing of data. Proposed approach achieves high efficiency in terms of movement prediction, energy efficiency, handoff delay and fault tolerance when compared to existing approach.

Published: April 2023

Humans put their own lives aside to save other human’s life and perform risky and dangerous activities. The risk can be reduced by using new technologies. This research study focuses on telepresence and teleoperation systems with motion and force control systems that replace humans in hazardous workspaces. In telepresence, the system helps humans to visualize the environment in real-time. In teleoperation, the system provides sensation to assist human beings in performing out-of-reach and dangerous operations safely as in real, providing a shadow hand to the operator. In this study, a system is developed that consists of a slave robotic arm and a master wearable device with bidirectional communication between the robotic arm and operator (master wearable device). It also presents a gesture-controlled robotic arm that uses sensors to read and translate human arm movements as commands. The slave robotic arm, senses applied force on an object and a master wearable device develops the force according to sensed force, in a result operator senses/feels the same object in the control room at distance. The slave robotic arm also mimics the operator arm to reach the proper position of an object. Several experiments were conducted with untrained personnel and satisfactory results were yielded, which showed that the motion and force replication is 90-95% accurate.

Authors: Khairullah Shawkat Sabah , Sharkawy Abdel-Nasser
Published: April 2023

Programmable logic controllers (PLCs) are increasingly being used to realize modern safety-critical instrumentation and control (IC) applications. Examples of these applications are industrial automation and control systems, plant process safety protection systems, smart home systems and digital IC systems embedded in nuclear power plants (NPPs) that require high levels of performance, reliability, and flexibility. The PLC is a flexible, programmable, and robust digital device that can execute all logical and mathematical runtime functions of the IC application and operate in harsh-critical environments. This paper proposes a PLC-based home security controller based on the ladder logic programming model. The design, analysis, and hardware implementation of this controller are presented in this paper. The designed system consists of three basic modules which are a sensing module used for reading the data of the input field devices for the smart home application, a computation-based decisional module used for executing the programming model, and an actuating module used for sending the control commands to the output field devices. The proposed home security system utilized different types of sensors such as a laser photoelectric sensor, a motion or proximity sensor, and a limit switch. In addition, a siren speaker, a light tower including three lights red, yellow, and green, two push-pull switches and emergency push-pull buttons were used as control inputs and output indicators in the implementation of this work This designed system is implemented on the Allen-Bradley CompactLogix PLC controller and Human Machine Interface (HMI) panel programmed as the graphical user interface. The experimental simulation results of the real hardware connection demonstrate that the proposed system is reliable, safe, and feasible for smart home security applications.

Aim: During the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic many families have faced difficulties such as using masks, maintaining social distancing, and isolating themselves to stop spreading the virüs. However, there is limited data about how mothers of affected children with acute/chronic diseases overcome this challenging and stressful process.

Methods: Between January 2021 and June 2021, mothers of 315 children aged 1-17 years admitted to the Pediatrics Outpatient Clinic of Inonu University were included in our study. Sociodemographic information, attitudes, and knowledge levels about the prevention of the disease towards COVID-19 were reviewed and the Stait-Trait Anxiety Inventory test was applied.

Results: The overall mean score of knowledge of the mothers for COVID-19 disease was 4.9 ± 1.4 (max=8). The low educational level and employment status of the father, the presence of any chronic disease in the family, and the presence of a chronic disease in their children increased the anxiety scores in those mothers.

Conclusion: Since COVID-19 still affect the community, it is very important to understand its psychological consequences on mothers who have children or close relatives with chronic diseases and to develop policies to improve their emotional and mental status.

Amaç: Bu çalışmada, akut lenfoblastik lösemi (ALL) tanısıyla tedavi edilmiş çocuk hastaların tedavi esnasında görülen nörolojik komplikasyonların değerlendirilmesi, tanıda ve tedavide nörolojik komplikasyon görülme risk faktörlerinin saptanması ve nörolojik komplikasyonların prognoza etkisinin değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır.

Yöntemler: Çalışmamızda kliniğimizce Ocak 2006 ile Aralık 2011 tarihleri arasında 18 yaş altı ALL tanısı almış ve Berlin Frankfurt Münster (BFM) TR ALL-2000 kemoterapi protokolü uygulanmış olan hastalar, hastane dosya ve kayıt sisteminden geriye dönük incelenmiştir. Çalışmaya dâhil edilen 200 hastanın 6’sı ilk tanıda merkezi sinir sistemi tutulumu olması nedeniyle çalışma dışı bırakıldı. Yüz doksan dört hastanın demografik, klinik, laboratuvar, radyolojik ve nörolojik bulguları değerlendirmeye alındı. Nörolojik komplikasyon görülen olgularla görülmeyen olgular iki gruba ayrılıp cinsiyet, yaş, laboratuvar, tedavi, sağ kalım ve relaps açısından kıyaslandı.

Bulgular: İlk tanıda merkezi sinir sistemi tutulumu olmayan 194 hastanın 28’inde tedavi esnasında nörolojik komplikasyon görüldü. En sık saptanan nörolojik komplikasyon konvülzyondu (%7,7). Nörolojik komplikasyon gelişen hastalarda erkeklerin çoğunlukta olduğu görülmekle birlikte, cinsiyet ve yaş ile nörolojik komplikasyon gelişimi açısından istatistiksel anlamlı ilişki saptanmadı. (p<0,05) Nörolojik komplikasyon görülen hastalarda ilk tanıda lökosit değerlerinin yüksek olduğu ve lökosit yüksekliğinin nörolojik komplikasyon riskini arttırdığı görüldü. Nörolojik komplikasyon görülen hastaların sağ kalım yüzdesinin daha düşük olduğu görülmesine rağmen bu iki grup arasında sağ kalım oranları karşılaştırıldığında istatiksel anlamlı farklılık bulunmadı. (p>0,05)

Sonuç: Çocukluk çağı ALL’sinde kötü bir prognostik faktör olduğu bilinen tanıdaki lökosit sayısının yüksekliğinin, tedavi esnasında görülebilecek nörolojik komplikasyonların habercisi olabileceği akılda tutulmalıdır.

Amaç: Bu çalışmada immünglobulin A vasküliti İmmünoglobulin A vasküliti (IgAV; eski adıyla Henoch Schonlein Purpurası) olan çocuklarda böbrek tutulumunun zamanını etkileyen faktörlerin ortaya konulması amaçlanmıştır.

Yöntemler: Ocak 2015- Haziran 2022 arasında IgAV tanısı ile en az 1 yıl takip edilen hastaların verileri geriye dönük olarak incelendi. Hastaların demografik, klinik, laboratuar verileri ve uygulanan tedaviler kaydedildi.

Bulgular: Çalışmaya 372 IgAV hastası dahil edildi, bu hastaların 81’inde IgAV böbrek tutulumu vardı. Hastaların 46’sı (%56,8) erkek, 35’i (%43,2) kızdı. Hastaların tamamında cilt tutulumu, 32’sinde (%39,5) eklem, 44’ünde (%54,3) gastrointestinal sistem (GİS), 2’sinde (%2,5) nörolojik tutulum vardı. 3 hastada tanı anında hipertansiyon vardı. Böbrek tutulumu, 45 hastada (%55,5) tanı anında, 10 hastada (%12,4) ilk 2 hafta içinde, 12 hastada (%14,8) 2-4. haftalar arasında, 14 hastada (%17,3) 1 ay-3 ay arasında saptandı. 3 aydan sonra böbrek tutulumu olmadı. Tanı anında böbrek tutulumu ile tanı yaşının büyük ve albümin düzeyinin düşük olması; 1-3 ayda böbrek tutulumu gelişmesi ile eklem ve GİS tutulumu arasında ilişki bulundu. Böbrek tutulumu olan hastalar içinde iyileşme süresi en uzun olanlar, tanı anında böbrek tutulumu saptananlar ve nefrotik düzeyde proteinüri olan hastalardı. İyileşme süresi en kısa olanlar ise, 1-3 ay arası böbrek tutulumu olan ve hematüri saptananlardı.

Sonuç: Büyük yaştaki çocuklarda ve düşük albümin düzeyi olanlarda IgAV-böbrek tutulumunun gelişimi dikkatle takip edilmelidir. Özellikle ilk 3 ay böbrek tutulumunun saptanması için riskli dönemdir.

Abstract: Now a days many industries have adopted metal shear panels (MSP’S) in steel structures. MSP’S are effective seismic force-resistant components that are widely used in seismic regions to resist lateral forces. Structural mitigation measures can be adopted to reduce structural damage through engineered actions to maintain structural stability and integrity. This study investigates seismic performance of a combined braced circular damped grid panels (BCDP) and comparing its performance with rectangular braced ductile thin shear panels (BDSP). BCDP specimens are made by replacing rectangular panels on BDSP specimens by concentric circular grids. The system consists of a wall panel, X braced system and to develop an efficient damping characteristics damped circular grid panels provided at crossing of X bracing. It is expected that when reverse cyclic load applied, whole load not transferred to the frame or bracing but to the circular grids. The result showed that when load applied, the frame will not fail instead the circular grid starts yielding and a greater number of cycles can be accommodated without failure and effectively increased seismic capabilities of the system. The specimens are designed and modelled under various parametric studies and investigated analytically. The study includes seismic analysis and push over analysis using ANSYS software.

Abstract: The liver is a vital internal organ of the human body that performs two primary functions: blood filtration and digestion. The inhalation of contaminated air, narcotics, excessive alcohol consumption, and obesity all contribute to liver damage. The most common cause of death in the world, chronic liver disease kills a lot of people. A variety of factors that affect the liver contribute to the development of this disease. It causes liver encephalopathy, jaundice, aberrant nerve function, bloody coughing or vomiting, renal failure, liver failure, and many other symptoms. The diagnosis of this illness is very expensive and difficult. Medical experts struggle to identify the side effects of liver disease because people experience pain even while suffering from the disease. Because of advancements in machine learning technologies, early detection of liver disease is now possible. so that the dangerous illness can be rapidly and easily diagnosed. In healthcare, this will be more helpful. A medical expert system and a department can both be employed in a remote location. Early-stage prediction will prevent it from being too late and help save lives. There are various types of machine learning for the diagnosis of liver disease, such as Logistic Regression, KNN, random forest, and they differ in accuracy, precision, and sensitivity. According to the analysis's findings, the Logistic regression had the most accuracy. Additionally, the primary goal of the current work is to use clinical data for the prediction of liver disease. Through our analysis, we explore several ways to describe such data
