Published: September 2022

An incision wound is the destruction of several cells in the skin area that has experienced an incision. Several factors influencing wound healing are neutrophils as causative agents of inflammation, angiogenesis, and wound closure. These three factors should undergo physiologically to obtain the optimal healing process. Currently, herbal products are preferred because they have lower side effects than synthetic ones. Papaya leaves contain flavonoids with various functions, including wound closure and anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. Topical intervention, especially gel, is good for healing because it can keep the wound moist. This research aimed to determine the effect of the administration of papaya leaf gel on wound closure, neutrophil, and angiogenesis. Thirty white rats were used as the model animals in a randomized experimental study divided into five groups comprising negative control (0,9% NaCl), positive control (10% Povidone-iodine), and three intervention groups treated with gel of Carica papaya leaves at a dosage 10%, 20%, and 30%. All groups were topically administered treatment once a day on the dorsal surface for seven days. Carica papaya leaves contain flavonoids, saponin, tannin, and alkaloids qualitatively and 7,734 mg/kg of the flavonoid quantitatively. There were no significant differences in wound size in all three groups on three days, but Carica papaya leave gel had a superior effect compared to 10% PI and 0,9% NaCl in the wound closure process. There were significant differences in all groups in neutrophil and angiogenesis. Nevertheless, 20% papaya leave gel showed the lowest number of neutrophils and had a superior effect on improving the new blood vessels significantly compared to negative and positive groups.

Authors: Kruit Anne Sophie , Hummelink Stefan , Eshuis Lilian , Kusters Benno , Ulrich Dietmar
Published: September 2022

BACKGROUND: Extracorporeal perfusion (ECP) is a promising technique for prolonged tissue preservation, but might have side effects. For instance, increased radical oxygen species or capillary endothelial damage. OBJECTIVE: To assess ultra-morphological muscle damage during 36-hour ECP of porcine musculocutaneous flaps, hypothesizing that it would delay the onset of damage compared to static cold storage (SCS). METHODS: Bilateral flaps were retrieved from three Dutch Landrace pigs. Three flaps were preserved for 36 hours by hypothermic storage 4-6°C (control group) and three flaps by ECP with cooled University of Wisconsin solution. Muscle biopsies were taken at 0 h, 12 h and 36 h and assessed with transmission electron microscopy. RESULTS: Muscle architecture was best preserved by ECP, with a delayed onset and decreased severity of muscle damage. After 36 hours, damage was two-fold lower in ECP-flaps compared to SCS-flaps. Myofibril architecture was best preserved. Mitochondria were greatly preserved with swelling being the most prominent feature. Capillaries were moderately but differently damaged during ECP, with focal endothelial thinning as opposed to luminal obstruction in SCS-preserved flaps. CONCLUSIONS: This experiment described favourable cellular preservation of skeletal muscle flaps during ECP compared to SCS. Results showed less severe ultra-morphological damage and a later onset of damage.

Authors: Kuppulakshmi V. , Sugapriya C. , Nagarajan D.
Published: September 2022

Inventory plays an important role in the production process. One of the primary reasons why inventory management modeling is essential for the industry is because it will suffer immensely if there are insufficient food products to stock during the shutdown period. By determining the combined optimal cost of the retailers and wholesalers, this research significantly improves the service of the supply chain from wholesaler to retailer. The stochastic number for the imperfect perishable items is provided in this inventory study. By altering the parameter values, the uniform distribution is used to calculate these damaged items. This approach identifies the backordering quantity for both regular and uncertain fish band circumstances. The cost of maintaining the inventory will rise significantly of increased wastage due to a rise in deteriorating, which will result in the loss of perishable food items. The primary goal of this research paper is to transport them without being destroyed until they reach their desired consumers. By determining the back ordering quantity during a shutdown, one can decrease the overall expenses incurred by the retailers. These computational complexity measures are proven in a fuzzy uncertain environment. The main goal of this paper is to analyze the variation of demand during the unanticipated period and find the optimum total cost of the perishable products. The growth of production in a particular area at a particular time, interconnect with another large number of products in the same area and is calculated by Verhulst’s demand with time depended on proficiency rate. Concerning the existing Verhulst’s demand pattern for the production process, this paper introduced that for perishable items in a fuzzy unanticipated situation. A bountiful system analysis is performed to find the cost function under fuzzy environment and the sensitivity analysis is carried out to perform the key representation constant.

Published: September 2022

Physical Health is an important part of health education and health promotion in our country. Strengthen the research on the comprehensive evaluation of college students’ physical health, establish a representative, scientific, practical and operable index system, provide simple evaluation methods, scientifically evaluate the physical and health status of college students, and promote the scientific development of college students. Effective physical exercise, the development of good physical exercise habits and the promotion of school physical education teaching reform are of great significance. The physical health evaluation of College students is frequently viewed as the multiple attribute decision making (MADM) issue. In this paper, the generalized Heronian mean (GHM) operator and generalized weighted Heronian mean (GWHM) operator with fuzzy number intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (FNIFNs) is extended to build fuzzy number intuitionistic fuzzy GHM (FNIFGHM) operator and fuzzy number intuitionistic fuzzy GWHM (FNIFGWHM) operator. Then we depicted the FNIFWHM operator on the strength of this technique. In the rear, a case in point for Physical health evaluation of College students is described to prove the built methods.
Distance measure and intuitionistic fuzzy TOPSIS method based on the centroid coordinate representation*
Authors: Sun Gang , Wang Mingxin , Li Xiaoping , Huang Wei
Published: September 2022

In real life, people often need to aggregate some multi criteria fuzzy information and then make reasonable and effective decisions. The distance measure in intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS) space is an important tool to deal with multi criteria information fuzzy decision making problems. Motivated by these reasons, an intuitionistic fuzzy TOPSIS multi criteria decision-making method is proposed based on distance measure represented by centroid coordinates. Firstly, some existing distance measures in IFS space are summarized, and some of existing shortcomings are discussed. Secondly, the concept of hesitation factor is proposed by using the centroid coordinate representation of hesitation region, and then a new distance measure between two intuitionistic fuzzy numbers is defined. It is proved that the distance measure satisfies the traditional distance axioms. Then, an intuitionistic fuzzy TOPSIS method based on the proposed distance measure is developed. Finally, an illustrative example is given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method. Also, the superiority and advantages of the method are shown via comparative analysis and discussion.
New dynamic error spectrum for performance evaluation
Authors: Peng Weishi , Fang Yangwang
Published: September 2022

In performance evaluation, the widely used root-mean-square error is easily affected by large error terms and is also an incomprehensive measure. Therefore, the error spectrum as a comprehensive measure was proposed for parameter estimation. However, error spectrum (ES) is a three-dimension plot (among ES, r axis and time t axis) in the whole time horizon in dynamic evaluation system, which is not intuitive and easy to be analyzed. To smooth this, a new dynamic error spectrum (NDES) is proposed in dynamic evaluation system in this paper. Firstly, the NDES is defined for EPE in dynamic systems. Secondly, the computation method is proposed to calculate the NDES. Thirdly, several nice properties of NDES are presented for dynamic system performance evaluation. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed new dynamic error spectrum is verified by a numerical example.
Novel deep learning architectures for haemodialysis time series classification
Authors: Leonardi Giorgio , Montani Stefania , Striani Manuel
Published: September 2022

Classifying haemodialysis sessions, on the basis of the evolution of specific clinical variables over time, allows the physician to identify patients that are being treated inefficiently, and that may need additional monitoring or corrective interventions. In this paper, we propose a deep learning approach to clinical time series classification, in the haemodialysis domain. In particular, we have defined two novel architectures, able to take advantage of the strengths of Convolutional Neural Networks and of Recurrent Networks. The novel architectures we introduced and tested outperformed classical mathematical classification techniques, as well as simpler deep learning approaches. In particular, combining Recurrent Networks with convolutional structures in different ways, allowed us to obtain accuracies above 81%, coupled with high values of the Matthews Correlation Coefficient (MCC), a parameter particularly suitable to assess the quality of classification when dealing with unbalanced classes-as it was our case. In the future we will test an extension of the approach to additional monitoring time series, aiming at an overall optimization of patient care.
A detailed alarm management report as a tool for the treatment of bad actors at a gas logistics plant
Authors: de Lima Anderson Nogueira , Alonso Carolina Maria Do Carmo , Duarte Francisco José de Castro Moura
Published: September 2022

BACKGROUND: The treatment of bad actors consists of analyzing the most triggered alarms at a plant, seeking to make modifications that provide workers with more efficient and safer operational conditions. The consideration of plant operators’ practical knowledge in these proposed changes is both an opportunity and a challenge, as specific conditions are required. OBJECTIVE: To present and discuss how an alarm management report (AMR) could support the treatment of bad actors by promoting structured debates on real work situations and its contribution in improving the solutions proposed by alarm management committees (AMCs). METHODS: Data from nine AMC meetings were gathered and parsed using qualitative content analysis to classify the kind of information that the AMC used to justify the proposed changes and how these changes were decided. RESULTS: More than 60% of the changes were justified by information provided by the AMRs, indicating broad application and adoption. However, our findings suggest that the structured debates addressed variability and emerging strategies and may consider entire subsystems instead of single alarms. CONCLUSION: The use of structured debates is feasible for the treatment of bad actors and is an appropriate option that includes operating experience feedback for alarm optimization in industrial facilities.

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate the physical characteristics of workspaces, computer use, and prevalence, associated factors, and reported impact of computer-related musculoskeletal symptoms (MSS) among university staff during the COVID-19 pandemic. METHODS: A cross-sectional study of staff in a university in Ireland was conducted in March 2021. An anonymous online survey of computer use, work practices and 3-month prevalence and the reported impact of computer-related MSS (modified Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire) was conducted. Data analysis involved descriptive statistics and relationships were tested using chi-squared analysis. RESULTS: The analysis included 1045 responses. The majority (63%) worked solely from home, used a laptop more frequently than a desktop computer, and worked a greater number of hours. Almost half (48%) did not have a dedicated home workspace. More respondents reported their university workspace (72%) was more comfortable than their home workspace (51.2%) (p < 0.0001). Prevalence of computer-related MSS was 83% : neck (62%), shoulder (57%), lower back (47%). Laptop-related MSS was reported more frequently (82%) than desktop-related MSS (65%) (p < 0.05). Computer-related MSS was associated with workspace, equipment at home, laptop use, female gender, and righthandedness (p < 0.05). A reduction in non-work-related activities (35%), work activities (18%) and seeking medical attention (24%) was reported. CONCLUSION: The prevalence of computer-related MSS was high and associated with remote working. Further studies that aim to mitigate the risks of computer-related MSS in those working remotely or in hybrid models are required.

Published: September 2022

Digital media has transformed the journalism landscape across the globe. Still, the reasons behind its wider adoption in developing regions are under investigation. This study also examined digital journalism acceptance among Pakistani journalists. The researchers used a cross-sectional approach and used Structural Equation modelling (SEM) for the data analysis. Supported by the basic propositions of the Theory of Planned Behavior, the findings affirmed the role of certain psychological factors in digital media acceptance among journalists. The researchers found that Subjective Norms significantly affect the Behavioral Intention of the journalists, which also indicates a positive effect on Perceived Behavioral Control. Besides, the Perceived Behavioral Control also affects the Behavioral Intention. Consequently, Behavioral Intention causes Digital Journalism Acceptance among journalists. Finally, the indirect effect of gender on Digital Journalism Acceptance also remained significant among Pakistani journalists. This research concluded that the role and acceptance of digital journalism are expanding in Pakistan. Despite the traditional approaches are still considered important, the role of digital journalism is also acknowledged at different levels. Thus, more studies are recommended to explore the role of gender and demographics on digital media acceptance among journalists can bring out in-depth details.

Published: September 2022

The purpose of the article is to conceptualize the phenomena of imitation and replication and to identify the distinctive features of these processes using examples of cultural practices. The influence of these processes on the cultural progress of mankind is comprehended and the results of such manifestations are analyzed. The research methodology is based on an integrated approach and relies on analytical (when analyzing philosophy, art history, cultural literature on the subject of research) and comparative (when elucidating the distinctive features of imitation and replication and the cause-and-effect relationships of these processes in the course of the cultural development of mankind. research methods. The scientific novelty of the article lies in the fact that for the first time disagreements in the subject content of the concepts of imitation and replication are clarified and the difference in the features of these processes is analyzed. Conclusions. It was revealed that, despite the etymological relationship between the concepts of imitation and replication , in practice, these two phenomena mean different things. Imitation often involves the deliberate copying of the external features of an object, phenomenon, or movement to reproduce an introduction to deception or to bring the features of this object or phenomenon closer to the reproduced original. On the other hand, replication is not always deliberate and conscious, its results are caused by a complex association of ideas and testify tothe manifestations of a long process of aestheticization. It has been proven that it is precisely in the long “nozzle” (repetition) of certain customs of technological means and tools that the reason they, initially strange and unacceptable, become pleasant, expected, and necessary. Deliberate imitation or subconscious replication of the necessary form of another object or animal movements to achieve their goals are ways to implement the artistic process, as a result of which new work is created.Key words: imitation, replication, mimesis, aestheticization, cultural process.

Authors: Hnatyshyn Oksana
Published: September 2022

The purpose of the article. The work aims to identify the conditions and factors of the emergence of the method of "Soviet musicology". The methodology of the study consists of the use of historically, gnoseological, functional-value, as well as specifically sociologic and generalizing methods of analysis. The scientific novelty consists in ascertaining the essence of the above-mentioned method and its decisive role in the formation of a new branch of the common sciences - music knowledge. It is substantiated that the objective focus of her attention on musical culture for many decades leveled the previous focus of scientists on music as a sound phenomenon. It is motivated that the historical muse of science is recommended to focus on the sociological and ideological dimensions, theoretically - on the practical expediency of knowledge. Conclusions. Analysis of the problem of the method of Soviet musicology revealed the factors of its appearance, the main of which was the policy of "culture" which manifested itself in the general dissemination of available knowledge about musical culture for the formation of a new Soviet man. The harm from the unconditional use of the method manifested in the neglect of essential research of the sciences of music, the loss of the proper level of professionalization of scientific personnel, the emergence of a new type of discourse ("cataloging of data"), the origin of the "scientific and pop of the laurel genre", which displaced its scientific publications, was revealed.

Neo-baroque in modern ukrainian art: features, representatives, significance
Authors: Pishchanska Viktoriia
Published: September 2022

The aim of the work is to analyze neo-baroque features in modern Ukrainian art. The research methodology is based on the principles of logic, abstractness and scientificity. The general theoretical research methods are used in the work: synthesis, induction, analysis, deduction. Particular attention is paid to the use of special art methods, including formal-stylistic, structural analysis and semantic approach. With the help of the historical method it was possible to trace the longevity of neo-baroque traditions. As a result of using the comparative method, neo-baroque samples of Ukrainian art were analyzed and compared. Scientific novelty. The article comprehensively analyzes the development of neo-baroque as a separate style in modern Ukrainian art studios, but the main vector is made for the analysis of modern Ukrainian painting. Conclusions. Neo-Baroque from the XIX century, proposed several new principles, that contradicted the principles of the „official” classicism. In particular, neo-baroque culture led to the rejection of a single, systematic, simple model and formed a view of the world as a fragmentary plurality. Ukrainian neo-baroque became a natural stage in the national tradition, which turned to its origins and formed complex relationships with other art forms. Therefore, the significance of this style is significant given the further development of contemporary art. Among contemporary artists who turn to the Baroque traditions, such figures as V. Ryabchenko, K. Reunov, A. Savadov, O. Tistol, S. Panych. and others are important. Some neo-baroque features are contained in the works of M. Storozhenko, Y. Lutskevich, D. Yablonsky, etc. The development of the neo-baroque has become so popular in contemporary art that even Ukrainian designers are actively incorporating Baroque principles into their works.

Features of kinesthetic empathy in modern dance
Authors: Lukyanenko Kateryna
Published: September 2022

The purpose of the article is to identify the features of kinesthetic empathy in the context of the specifics of dance partnership in modern dance. Research methodology. The method of cognitive and systems analysis was used (to highlight the basic essential characteristics of kinesthetic empathy and its manifestation in modern dance); comparative method (to identify the features of dance partnership in modern dance); method of theoretical generalization (to formulate research conclusions). Scientific novelty. Kinesthetic empathy in modern dance has been studied through the prism of dance partnership; the concepts of "kinesthetics", "empathy" and "kinesthetic empathy" in the context of the specifics of dance art are specified; the development of the kinesthetic-empathic approach in modern dance in retrospect is considered; the peculiarities of the manifestation of kinesthetic empathy in the process of partnership interaction are analyzed. Conclusions. The act of modern dance is a unique pattern of conscious movements in space-time, and a dancer endowed with the ability to go beyond it can cause a local experience in himself and his partner in kinesthetic communication. Contemplating the body of a partner in motion, he sees a possible move that can be made by his own body. The study found that the nature of relationships represents kinesthetic empathy in the dance partnership of modern dance, the specifics of physical performance parameters, external form of the existence and is based on three main aspects: contact (direct physical, emotional, visual, etc.); coherence of actions; mutual understanding (manifested both in functional technical characteristics, from the coincidence of rhythm, consistency of steps to visual consistency, and in the ethics of contact). Considering the partnership between dancers as a rhetorical act based on a particular type of nonverbal confidence between two (or more) people who move together physically and/or energetically (according to F. Adrin) and includes time, balance, strength, body shape, and personality, united in movement (according to K. Lowe), we can state that the concept of kinesthetic empathy in the context of the specifics of partnership in modern dance is manifested as an empirical interaction between performers, embodying aspects of their movements. This unique interaction is positioned as a sensory experience facilitated by the emotional component, memory, and imagination of the dancers - aspects of emotions and memory become ways to kinesthetically enhance their interaction. Dancers create motor images that combine positions of movement, so their partners can kinesthetically experience the dynamics of movement sequences, and thanks to the kinesthetic imagination, they "connect" to the energy and rhythms of the partner's movements.

Traditional pop song: conceptualization of the concept
Authors: Zosim Olga
Published: September 2022

The purpose of the research. The study attempts to conceptualize the definition of «traditional pop song» from the standpoint of contemporary musical variety studies. The research methodology is based on the use of historical, cultural, systemic, contextual, and analytical methods, the combination of which made it possible to determine the specific features of the traditional Ukrainian pop song. The scientific novelty of the work lies in the fact that for the first time in Ukrainian science the concept of «traditional pop song» is conceptualized. Conclusions. The traditional pop song occupies a significant place in the Ukrainian cultural space, while it has not yet been comprehended as a cultural and artistic phenomenon in Ukrainian science. Based on the selection of three parameters (socio-cultural, age and style), the specifics of the Ukrainian traditional pop song were revealed. It is revealed that its stylistic features were formed during the 1950–1970s. («classic pop song»), in the 1980s. there has been a process of stabilization, since the 1990s. the identification of the traditional pop song as a specific, conservative stylistic direction begins, which focused on the achievements of the classical Ukrainian pop song and opposed the influences of the Western trends of popular music, trying to preserve the originality of the Ukrainian musical variety art. The fundamental non-commercial nature of the traditional pop song is rooted in the art of the Soviet era and is the opposite of show business with its desire to quickly update musical styles. During the period of active development of the commercial direction of pop music in the 1990s. the traditional pop song was considered archaic and opposed to the «fashionable» directions of «youth music». Today, this opposition is not relevant: the traditional pop song as a stylistic direction based on the aesthetics of the second half of the 20th century is popular among performers and listeners of all ages. The stylistic diversity of the traditional pop song is associated with a long time of formation of the Ukrainian classical pop and its artistic achievements. Therefore, despite a certain conservatism, the Ukrainian traditional pop song is a significant layer of Ukrainian musical culture.

Instrumental Art of Ukraine in the 1960s – the beginning of the 21st century: studying from the standpoint of the philosophy of musical analysis
Authors: Kravchenko Anastasia
Published: September 2022

Purpose of Research. The purposes of the research are to identify the specifics of the philosophy of musical analysis in basic philosophical, aesthetic and musicological categories and to outline its significance in the cultural studies of the phenomena of Ukrainian musical art, in particular, chamber-instrumental (based on the work of representatives of the Ukrainian school composers of the 60s of the XX-th century - the beginning of the XXI-st century). Methodology of Research. The research methodology is based on the combination of the application of a number of scientific approaches and the following methods: analytical, semiotic, hermeneutic, cultural and art studies ones, which allow us to consider the issue of the methodology of the analysis of musical works from in the context of the philosophy of music. Scientific Novelty. The scientific novelty of the research is the generalization of existing concepts in order to further develop the principles of the philosophy of musical analysis in a combinatorial combination of classical musicological and «discursive» analysis. This approach allows us understanding the formal-structural, content-semantic and semantic aspects of the organization of musical material in their integrity within the process of compositional and performing creativity. Conclusions. It has been proven that the creation, reproduction and perception of compositions is a process of worldview self-awareness through their works. The variability of interpretive versions of cultural-hermeneutic understanding of musical meaning is formed in medial channels at the communicative junction of mutual exchange of artistic and aesthetic information between its generator, translator and perceiver. So, the importance of the philosophy of musical analysis in the study of the works of chamber-instrumental art of representatives of the Ukrainian school composers and their compositions is highlighted.

Key words: chamber and instrumental art of Ukraine, philosophy of music, philosophy of musical analysis, discursive analysis of a musical work, musical meaning, composition, performance, medial channels of perception.

Regulatory activities of the state as a factor in circus industry development
Authors: Kashuba Vladyslav
Published: September 2022

The purpose of the article is to study the state policy performed by Ukraine over the state-owned circus system’s subjects during the last 30 years. The purpose is also to analyze the steps taken by the Ministry of Culture in order to reform the organizational and creative structure of the national circus, its attempts to change existing models of hierarchical structure and management, principles of state subsidizing, and taxation of circus enterprises, etc. Methodology. The historic-factual method is used in order to document the course of the government’s reform efforts, to reflect the dynamic of the transformations process. Comparative analysis of the legislative acts and their consequences is applied in order to analyse effectiveness of the the measures applied by the government. So, empiric methods are given priority because of the need to process archival data. Scientific novelty. For the first time in Ukraine the impact of the state policy performed during the last 30 years on the performance of the state-owned circus system is studied. The effectiveness and consequences of the state government's regulative invasion into the system are analyzed. Realizing of the state politics defects may contribute to optimisation of the circus system governing, which is the topic for the further studies. Conclusions. Low efficiency of the regulatory influence was detected and it is explained by the deficit of consistent and systemic approach, lagging behind modern requirements, misunderstanding of the circus system mechanisms, and declarative decisions. The lack of a special law on circus industry as well as a competent circus managers’ absence in the Ministry of Culture are significant facts. Probably, the ideas of centralised management and a single artistic conveyor reflect the only viable decision for the state circus system’s survival, but their implementation assumes some strong motivational mechanisms. And they have not yet been designed. At the same time, the government managed to save a property complex of the circus system almost fully, due to the ban on the circuses privatization (until recently) and due to the minimum but guaranteed funding. That does not ensure the stable development but provides the circus with a chance for the a better future.
