Authors: Bulycheva Ekaterina V. , Antokhin Evgeny Yu.
Published: June 2023

Introduction. The management of the educational process for modern students is associated with the active and prolonged use of digital technologies and devices. If the studies of the past years have given a detailed and comprehensive assessment of hygienic risk factors in the traditional management of the educational process, now there is a need to clarify the hygienic safety of the management of the educational process in remote form and when using digital devices in teaching against the background of a high commitment of children and adolescents to use gadgets at leisure.
Materials and methods. A comparative analysis of the intensity of the educational process in primary school students according to the federal recommendations of the Federal State Educational Institution “All-Russian Development Society for School and University Medicine and Health”-16-2015 (version 1.1) “Hygienic assessment of the intensity of students’ learning activities” in traditional and distance education forms according to the timing of seventy five lessons in mathematics and Russian language.
Results. In the distance learning form, compared with the traditional one, the intensity of educational work was found to increase from 2.9±0.05 points (class 3.1) to 3.4±0.02 points (class 3.1), p≤0.05 due to intense 2 degrees of intellectual loads (3.6±0.01 points), sensory loads (3.6±0.03 points), monotony (3.7±0.03 points) and intensity of the 1st degree of the mode of educational activity (3.1±0.03 points). The increase in sensory loads was associated with the use of information and communication tools during training, such as a computer, laptop, tablet, smartphone. Up to 15.3% of students during the traditional period and 35.5% of students during the distance education period used smartphones prohibited for teaching. The majority of students in the distance study form used a computer in 75.6% of cases, every third student (35.4%) used a laptop, with the traditional form of education, the proportion of students who used computers and laptops in teaching was 12.3–15.6%.
Limitations. The study on the assessment of the intensity of the educational process in various forms of education was limited by the fact that the sample was limited to primary school students, which does not allow extrapolating them to the total population of middle and senior level students. The timing of the intensity of educational activity in the lessons of mathematics and Russian language, which relate to difficult subjects, could determine a higher intensity of the educational process than if the assessment took into account all subjects.
Conclusion. The obtained data especially emphasize the relevance of the adopted hygienic standards governing the total time of using information and communication tools both during the school day in the classroom and taking into account the entire time budget per day, and the need to control their use by students.
Effects of Bamboo Leaf Ash on Alkali-Silica Reaction in Concrete
Authors: IKUMAPAYI Catherine Mayowa , JEGEDE Oluwaseun
Published: June 2023

The construction industry is generally faced with so many challenges of which deterioration in concrete structures caused by Alkali-silica reaction (ASR) is one of the pressing challenges. This reaction induces expansion in concrete, resulting in its eventual cracking and subsequent failure. Research direction is being geared towards obtaining properties of pozzolanic concrete of recently discovered different biogenic pozzolans such as bamboo leaf ash (BLA). BLA has been proven to be acceptable in terms of compressive strength and some other properties but few researches have been performed on the impacts of ASR on BLA concrete structures. This research work focuses on investigating the properties of BLA through X-ray diffraction and fluorescence analyses, and its effectiveness in resisting or eliminating ASR that may be present in concrete. Tests were performed on concrete bars soaked in NaOH at a temperature of 80 oC to determine the possible reactivity of aggregates to ASR. In addition, workability and the compressive strengths of BLA concrete at different percentage levels were determined after curing for 7, 28 and 56 days. The findings of the research show that BLA improves the workability of fresh concrete, however, it causes a decline in the compressive strength of concrete when compared with the strength of conventional concrete. Also, BLA has no detrimental effect on the linear expansion of concrete. This study recommends that a 5% partial replacement of cement with BLA will give effective performance when used in areas where strength is not the major priority.

Published: June 2023

Along with technological advances, the increase in the number of motorized vehicles that have occurred in recent decades has led to an increasingly pressing problem of parking availability. This is especially the case in densely populated urban areas, where drivers often spend a long time looking for an empty parking space. The purpose of this research is to facilitate the process of finding a parking space for users. The Smart Parking System aims to make it easier for parking lot users to find a place to park without spending a lot of time. Parking monitoring in the Smart Parking System is carried out by using the website as a display media on the monitor. This system consists of an ultrasonic sensor as a vehicle detector and NodeMCU as a microcontroller. The design of this system shows that it has not worked perfectly because it still has problems and deficiencies in the prototype system. Due to differences in the NodeMCU type, it is difficult to connect to the access point. For the solution, NodeMCU must be connected one by one to the Arduino IDE serial monitor so that it can be connected to the access point. The results of this research trial, the sensor can detect parked vehicles and can send data to NodeMCU. It takes 1 second to send data from each sensor to NodeMCU and it takes 4 seconds to loop from 4 sensors. Meanwhile, sending data from NodeMCU to the database takes 15-20 seconds from each NodeMCU, this can happen because it is influenced by the signal.

Published: June 2023

Absence is an activity of reporting and recording attendance in an institution, based on how it is used, the manual attendance system carried out in tertiary institutions requires students to fill out an attendance form with a signature during lectures. These deficiencies can be overcome by utilizing technology combined with the RFID system. An attendance system using web-based RFID is a system that utilizes RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technology to record individual attendance. This system is designed by utilizing hardware in the form of RFID readers and tags, as well as software and network infrastructure. The software used in this attendance system will receive attendance data from the RFID reader and store it in a database. The attendance data can be accessed through a web interface that can be accessed by administrators or authorized users. This web interface will display individual attendance information, such as date, check-in time, and check-out time. In addition, the system can also provide periodic attendance reports or upon request. This web-based RFID attendance system provides convenience in recording individual attendance. Users no longer need to use manual methods such as attendance cards or attendance lists. By using RFID tags, the process of recording attendance can be done automatically and efficiently.

Authors: Oco Ma. Cedocia N.
Published: June 2023

The present study sheds light on the readiness for online teaching of pre-service teachers at the time of the pandemic by (a) assessing the perceived level of readiness for online teaching of pre-service teachers; (b) evaluating the extent of the quality of the student services that support pre-service teachers’ readiness for online teaching; (c) identifying the key factors relating to the success of pre-service teachers’ readiness for online teaching; (d) categorizing the risk attitudes of pre-service teachers. The finding revealed a completely ready indication of pre-service teachers’ readiness for online teaching, yet there were a few problems that need to be addressed, especially pertaining to the equitable network coverage and facilities, implying the need to provide ample support and innovations to assist both teachers and learners in achieving meaningful online learning.Student services of the University that support pre-service teachers’ readiness for online teaching were found very good or effective. The students are more likely to succeed when they feel connected to a supportiveOffice of Student Affairs (OSAs) of the University, especially during this difficult time of the pandemic. The success of pre-service teachers’ readiness for online teaching is directly and strongly related to the constant and effective communication of their cooperating teachers and their peers. Pre-service teachers in this study were generally risk-taking. They put themselves in the position of potentially losing something just to achieve their goal.Although the perceived level of readiness is inferred as completely ready, it is further recommended that the College of Education should conduct online or on-site training workshops to equip pre-service teachers with the requisite skills on ICT concepts and their application to improve their skills in using technology for online teaching. Risk-taking should be encouraged and developed in the classroom and may incorporate risk-taking activities into the curriculum to create a culture where students feel safe.

Authors: EKİNCİ Nezir , KORKMAZ Ozan
Published: June 2023

Life satisfaction is one of the essential goals of individuals in life. Today, the effects of increasingly lonely working and acting behaviors on life satisfaction have not been sufficiently studied. This study investigated the mediating role of positivity in the relationship between university students' life satisfaction and the tendency to act and work alone (i.e., lone wolf personality). The participants of the research are 249 people. The age of the participants is between 18-29 (Mean = 22.28, SD = 4.00). The Life Satisfaction with Life Scale, Lone Wolf Scale, and Positivity Scale were used as data collection tools in the study. The data were analyzed with the structural equation modeling method. According to the results, the lone wolf personality affects life satisfaction. In addition, it has been determined that positivity has a fully mediating role in the relationship between life satisfaction and lone wolf personality. The findings were discussed in the context of the literature.

Published: June 2023

Health literacy (HL) sets on the ability and motivation of individuals to appraise, understand, access, and utilise information in ways that promote and maintain good health. Poorer health outcomes and incurs higher healthcare expenditures can be the cause of limited HL. Sabah public health facilities conducted a cross-sectional study between February and October 2020. A 12-item Short-Form Health Literacy Survey (HLS-SF12) comprising three domains (healthcare, disease prevention, and health promotion) was used to measure HL. The HL index score was categorised as ‘limited’ (0 – 33), ‘sufficient’ (>33 – 42), and ‘excellent’ (>42 – 50). Among 337 patients recruited, half were male (51%) with a mean age of 52.6 ± 12.3. The top 3 comorbid were hypertension (84.6%), dyslipidaemia (58.2%), and diabetes mellitus (47.8%). Health information was mainly accessed from television (84.6%), smartphones (75.1%), and radio (47.8%). The median HL index score was 31.94 (IQR 25 – 37.5), with 54.6% of patients having limited HL. The lowest median score was found in disease prevention, 11 (IQR 10 – 13) and 8 (IQR 7 – 9) when judging health information. The HL index was associated with age, educational level, household income, insurance ownership, and accessing health information with a smartphone or computer. In Sabah, the limited HL level observed the need to tailor interventional programmes to vulnerable groups. Digital platforms shouldbe enhanced in disseminating health-related information and educating the public on critical judgement skills.

Tracheal intubation is an essential skill for doctors. Tracheal intubation is done in patients with questionable airway patency, poor respiratory drive, hypercarbia, or hypoxia. The objective of this study was to compare the ease of tracheal intubation using MacintoshLaryngoscopes, C-MAC, and McGrath on a simulated difficult airway mannequin. The rationale of the study was to identify the easiest device to use for tracheal intubation. This randomized clinical trial was done at the Teluk Intan Hospital, Perak, Malaysia, from March 2020 to February 2021. Sixty-five medical officers participated in this study. The results showed that the mean time for tracheal intubation was significantly shorter when the participants were using the C-MAC than the conventional direct laryngoscope and McGrath. (C-MAC: 20.8 seconds, Direct Laryngoscope: 27.7 seconds, McGrath: 34.6 seconds) The results showed that C-MAC andMcGrath had a better first-attempt success rate than conventional direct laryngoscopes. C-MAC scored the highest first-attempt success rate, followed by McGrath. (95% compared to 83%) Regarding Cormack-Lehane grading, the C-MAC device showed a better view than McGrath and Direct Laryngoscope. The preferred device by medical officers for tracheal intubation was the C-MAC. (45% compared to other devices) In conclusion, the C-MAC device was superior in first attempt success rate and was the most preferred device compared to McGrath and direct laryngoscope. However, using the C-MAC device must be accompanied by adequate training and practice.

Published: June 2023

Corynebacterium species are often treated as contaminants. However, there were several recent outbreaks involving Corynebacterium species reported across the globe. We report a rare case of Corynebacterium simulans causes infective endocarditis which led to debilitating embolic events. A 39-year-old lady presented with a prolonged fever for three weeks. She was in septic shock and had dense right hemiplegia, a pansystolic murmur at the mitral area and hepatosplenomegaly. There were no peripheral stigmata of infective endocarditis. An urgent computed tomography (CT) of the brain showed an infarct at the left corona radiata extending to the left parietal, left basal ganglia and left temporal lobe. She deteriorated and required mechanical ventilation and intensive care. Echocardiogram showed vegetation at both her anterior and posterior mitral valve leaflets leading to severe mitral regurgitation. Splenic infarction was seen in her contrasted computed tomography (CECT) of her abdomen. Her three samples of blood culture were positive for Corynebacterium simulans. She deteriorated rapidly and went into multi-organ failure and succumbed. Corynebacterium species should be taken seriously and should not be neglected as a contaminant as it can cause potentially fatal complications as described in this case report.

This study aimed to identify the need for developing a MOOC module on risk communication in global health emergencies to use as a teaching tool for continuing nursing education programmes. Following the principles of a qualitative research design, a total of 14 participants, including two nursing lecturers from Kulliyyah of Nursing, International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM), two nurse managers (matrons), two emergency physicians, and eight registered nurses (RN) from SASMEC @ IIUM, were selected through purposive sampling method and interviewed using semi-structured interview-guided questions. The interview data were analysed using thematic analysis. The participants stated that continuing nursing education (CNE) was essential for professional development (PD) and a resource for enhancing existing skills and knowledge. Risk communication skills were crucial for nurses in emergency healthcare contexts. The majority of this study’s participants were unfamiliar with MOOC courses and stated that support and motivation from their institution, as well as monitoring of participation and course completion, were needed to implement MOOC courses successfully. To sum up, understanding of continuing education, current risk communication knowledge and literacy, and awareness of MOOCs were explored. These realities will support thedevelopment of the risk communication MOOC module that will help improve nurses’ risk communication skills and better prepare them for future global health emergencies.

Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a disease that presents with symptoms like nasal discharge, blockage, and itchiness, which impair the quality of life of most patients depending on its severity. The most common symptom in AR patients is a persistent bilateral nasal blockage, which may indirectly and potentially affect the airflow into the lung. However, the symptoms can be controlled using intranasal steroid spray (INS). This study investigated the role of nasal obstruction in lowering blood oxygenation and how INS improved blood oxygenation. This study included 33 patients with AR. Subjects with moderate-to-severe nasal obstruction were recruited based on the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), and mometasone furoate nasal spray (MFNS) – two puffs twice a day for two weeks was given. Pre- and post-medication parameters compared included nasal obstruction VAS, partial oxygen arterial pressure (PaO2), partial arterial carbon dioxide pressure (PaCO2), and oxygen saturation (O2 saturation). All parameters were substantially different between pre- and post-medication. VAS, PaO2, PaCO2, and O2 saturation were significantly different before and after medicine (p<0.01). A comprehensive treatment of nasal obstruction using MFNS helps improve blood oxygenation and nasal obstruction in AR patients.

В Северном Казахстане, Акмолинской области, в ТОО «Научно-производственный центр зернового хозяйства им. А.И. Бараева» проводились исследования по изучению влияния различных технологий -традиционной, нулевой, на продуктивность и качество гороха, с использованием элементов внесения минеральных удобрений. При оценке качества зерна сортов гороха определяли содержание белка, крахмала, натуры, массы 1000 зерен по межгосударственным стандартам и общепринятым методикам. Максимальное содержание белка отмечено при использовании нулевой технологии на вариантах с внесением N30 осенью поверхностно +Р20 в рядки с сортом Касиб -23,26% и сортом Өріс 4,38%. Наибольшее накопление крахмала наблюдалось при использовании традиционной технологии на варианте Р20 в рядки у сорта Касиб-64,91%, сорта Өріс –60,25%. Преимуществом по натурному весу зерна характеризовалась традиционная технология и сорт Касиб на вариантах N30 осенью поверхностно +Р20 в рядки (227,6г), Р80 под горох (220,7г). Органолептическая оценка вкуса, представленная в баллах, показала небольшое различие между традиционной и нулевой технологиями в пользу последней (4,8). Аналогичная тенденция прослеживалась при определении цвета вареных семян гороха сорта Өріс (традиционная 4,5 баллов, нулевая- 4,8 баллов). В процессе корреляционного анализа установлены взаимосвязи между показателями качества. Большое влияние на общую кулинарную оценку оказывал цвет вареных семян (r=0,83). Время варки гороха связано с содержанием белка в зерне (r=-0,62). Ценностью данного исследования является определение показателей качества зерна гороха, их взаимосвязей, органолептической оценки вкуса, общей кулинарной оценки в зависимости от технологий возделывания. Практическое значение заключается в возможности использования различных технологий при выращивании высококачественного зерна гороха.

С учетом тенденций последних лет гречиха в продовольственной и кормовой целях пользуется высокой популярностью. Однако одной из проблем является технология ее выращивания, так как в условиях изменения климата, особенно в сухостепной и степной зонах Казахстана, применение раннее рекомендуемых приемов возделывания не всегда приводит к ожидаемым результатам. На урожайность гречихи влияют сроки посева и влагообеспеченность, в этой связи актуальность представленной статьи заключается в определении некоторых приемов агротехники, обеспечивающие получение стабильных урожаев гречихи в условиях Акмолинской области. Целью являлось определение влияния нормы высева семян и сроков посева на урожайность гречихи сорта Шортандинская 4. Опыты закладывались с использованием классических методов полевых экспериментов. Наблюдения за растениями проводили по методике Госсортоиспытания. Полевая всхожесть семян гречихи варьировала от 78,9 до 82,7%. При норме высева 1,5 млн всхожих семян данный показатель был выше, чем при нормах 2,5 и 3,5 млн всхожих семян на гектар, таким образом на полевую всхожесть нормы высева семян значительно не влияли. По результатам наших исследований наилучшим сроком посева семян гречихи являлась ІІІ декада мая, а оптимальной нормой высева были 2,5-3,5 млн всхожих семян гречихи на гектар.

Abstract. Peter 1st Island is situated in the Bellingshausen Sea, a region that has experienced considerable climate change in recent decades. Warming sea surface temperatures and reduced sea ice cover have been accompanied by warming surface air temperature, increased snowfall, and accelerated mass loss over the adjacent ice sheet. Here we present data from the first firn core drilled on Peter 1st Island, spanning the period 2001–2017 CE. The stable water isotope data capture regional changes in surface air temperature, and precipitation (snow accumulation) at the site, which are highly correlated with the surrounding Amundsen-Bellingshausen Seas, and the adjacent Antarctic Peninsula (r>0.6, p<0.05). The unique in-situ data from an automatic weather station, together with the firn core data, confirms the high skill of the ERA5 reanalysis in capturing daily mean temperature and inter-annual precipitation variability, even over a small Sub-Antarctic Island. This study demonstrates the suitability of Peter 1st Island for future deep ice core drilling, with the potential to provide an invaluable archive to explore ice-ocean-atmosphere interactions over decadal to centennial timescales for this dynamic region.
Technical note: Extending sea level time series for extremes analysis with machine learning and neighbouring station data

Abstract. Extreme sea levels may cause damage and disruption of activities in coastal areas. Thus, predicting extreme sea levels is essential for coastal management. Statistical inference of robust return level estimates critically depends on the length and quality of the observed time series. Here we compare two different methods for extending a very short (~10 years) time series of tide gauge measurements using a longer time series from a neighbouring tide gauge: Linear Regression and Quantile Regression Forest machine learning. Both methods are applied to stations located in the Kattegat basin between Denmark and Sweden. Reasonable results are obtained using both techniques with the machine learning method providing a better reconstruction of the observed extremes. Generating a set of stochastic time series reflecting uncertainty estimates from the machine learning model and subsequently estimating the corresponding return levels using extreme value theory, the spread of the return levels is found to agree with results derived from more physically-based methods.
