Published: September 2022

Background: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) includes progressive symptoms spread along a continuum of preclinical and clinical stages. Although numerous studies uncovered the neuro-cognitive changes of AD, very little is known on the natural history of brain lesions and modifications of brain networks in elderly cognitively-healthy memory complainers at risk of AD for carrying pathophysiological biomarkers (amyloidopathy and tauopathy). Objective: We analyzed resting-state electroencephalography (EEG) of 318 cognitively-healthy subjective memory complainers from the INSIGHT-preAD cohort at the time of their first visit (M0) and two-years later (M24). Methods: Using 18F-florbetapir PET-scanner, subjects were stratified between amyloid negative (A–; n = 230) and positive (A+; n = 88) groups. Differences between A+ and A– were estimated at source-level in each band-power of the EEG spectrum. Results: At M0, we found an increase of theta power in the mid-frontal cortex in A+ compared to A–. No significant association was found between mid-frontal theta and the individuals’ cognitive performance. At M24, theta power increased in A+ relative to A– individuals in the posterior cingulate cortex and the pre-cuneus. Alpha band revealed a peculiar decremental trend in posterior brain regions in the A+ relative to the A– group only at M24. Theta power increase over the mid-frontal and mid-posterior cortices suggests an hypoactivation of the default-mode network in the A+ individuals and a non-linear longitudinal progression at M24. Conclusion: We provide the first source-level longitudinal evidence on the impact of brain amyloidosis on the EEG dynamics of a large-scale, monocentric cohort of elderly individuals at-risk for AD.

Authors: Wang Yuanyuan
Published: September 2022

In order to improve the accuracy, efficiency and network throughput of multi-channel weak signal synchronous acquisition in the network, a multi-channel weak signal synchronous acquisition method in remote communication network is designed. Firstly, by analyzing the multi-channel structure of remote communication network, the interference factors of multi-channel weak signal acquisition are determined. The parameter model method is used to estimate the bispectrum of weak signals, complete the multi-channel weak signal extraction of remote communication network, and preprocess the multi-channel weak signals of remote communication network by average filtering method. On this basis, the characteristics of multi-channel weak signals in the remote communication network are judged, and their characteristics are changed through the short time window function in the time domain, and the multi-channel weak signal synchronous catcher in the remote communication network is constructed to realize the synchronous acquisition of multi-channel weak signals in the remote communication network. The experimental results show that this method has high accuracy, short time-consuming and good network throughput. The acquisition accuracy of this method is always maintained at more than 90%.

Authors: Sammeta Naresh , Parthiban Latha
Published: September 2022

In recent times, a number of Internet of Things (IoT) related healthcare applications have been deployed for automating healthcare services and offering easy accessibility to patients. Several issues like security, fault-tolerant, and reliability have restricted the utilization of IoT services in real-time healthcare environments. To achieve security, blockchain technology can be utilized which offers effective interoperability of healthcare databases, ease of medical data access, device tracking, prescription database, hospital assets, etc. Therefore, this paper presents an optimal Elliptic curve cryptography-based encryption algorithm for a blockchain-enabled medical image transmission model, named OECC-BMIT. The presented OECC-BMIT model involves different stages of operations such as encryption, optimal key generation, blockchain-enabled data transmission, and decryption. Firstly, the OECC-BMIT model performs Elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) based encryption technique to securely transmit the medical images. In order to generate the optimal set of keys for the ECC technique, modified bat optimization (MBO) algorithm is applied. Then, the encrypted images undergo secure transmission via blockchain technology. The encrypted images are decrypted on the recipient side and the original medical image is reconstructed effectively. Extensive sets of experimentations were performed to highlight the goodness of the OECC-BMIT algorithm and the obtained results pointed out the improved outcome over the state of art methods in terms of different measures.

Authors: Dhamodharavadhani S. , Rathipriya R.
Published: September 2022

This paper aims to develop the methodology for enhancing the regression models using Cluster based sampling techniques (CST) to achieve high predictive accuracy and can also be used to handle large datasets. Hard clustering (KMeans Clustering) or Soft clustering (Fuzzy C-Means) to generate samples called clusters, which in turn is used to generate the Local Regression Models (LRM) for the given dataset. These LRMs are used to create a Global Regression Model. This methodology is known as Enhanced Regression Model (ERM). The performance of the proposed approach is tested with 5 different datasets. The experimental results revealed that the proposed methodology yielded better predictive accuracy than the non-hybrid MLR model; also, fuzzy C-Means performs better than the KMeans clustering algorithm for sample selection. Thus, ERM has potential to handle data with uncertainty and complex pattern and produced a high prediction accuracy rate.

A new statistical test for distinguishing 2-partitions of a finite set
Authors: Dronov Sergei V.
Published: September 2022

This paper considers a family of so-called 2-partitions of some finite set. Each of them divides the set under study into two disjoint parts. Under the assumption that two such partitions are chosen randomly, the exact probability distribution of the special cluster metric on this family is found. On this basis, a new statistical test for checking the significance of differences between 2-partitions is proposed. In addition, the distribution of the values of this metric is found for the case when both partitions are of the ledge type in ordering the set of objects in ascending order of values of some numerical indicator. This means that one of the parts of each partition, which in some sense is the main one, is a segment. The boundaries of such a segment are called normative. By comparing various estimates of the normative boundaries based on sample data, it is introduced the concept of indicative certainty of the numerical indicator. It can be regarded as the degree of confidence in this indicator as a basis for decision whether an object belongs to the main set of the ledge partition. Some application of the results to medical data processing is considered.
An evaluation of physiotherapists’ knowledge regarding the clinical assessment of an acute ankle sprain and chronic ankle instability
Authors: Curran Liam , Meehan Caileen , Delahunt Eamonn
Published: September 2022

INTRODUCTION: Previous research has shown that 40% of people who suffer an ankle sprain will develop chronic ankle instability (CAI). Both mechanical insufficiencies and functional insufficiencies contribute to the development of CAI. In order to reduce the incidence of CAI and to provide the highest standard of care to patients, physiotherapists must be able to identify these insufficiencies in order to develop an appropriate treatment pathway. METHODS: We designed an online survey which the Irish Society of Chartered Physiotherapists sent to members within particular subgroups. The survey allowed us to determine the competencies of Chartered Physiotherapists in conducting a comprehensive clinical ankle assessment, their knowledge of CAI and their self-rated confidence in treating and assessing an ankle injury. RESULTS: From the emails distributed, 263 people chose to take part. Of those, 87 people completed the survey, yielding a response rate of 33%. Of the 87 respondents, 49% could not identify any mechanical impairments, and 40% could only identify one. 47% could not identify any functional impairments, 21% identified one and 25% identified two. 62% of participants did not include ankle joints arthrokinematics in their clinical assessments of ankle injury, and 60% did not include patient reported outcome measures. Therefore the majority of Irish physiotherapist’s are not meeting the minimally accepted standards of ankle injury assessments. Despite this, 86% of participants rated themselves as 6/10 or greater in their own clinical assessment proficiency. CONCLUSION: Our results highlight that Irish physiotherapist have a limited understanding of the mechanical and functional insufficiencies contributing to the development of CAI.

Authors: Chaharaghran Fatemeh , Tabatabaei Shahnaz , Rostamzadeh Sajjad
Published: September 2022

BACKGROUND: In most food companies, workers are constantly exposed to non-standard levels of noise. Also, food production processes require intense manual labor and repetitive movements, which may result in musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). Noise and awkward posture are considered as two important physical factors in the industrialized world, which can related to perceived stress. OBJECTIVE: This study was conducted among food factory workers to investigate the impact of noise exposure and work posture on occupational stress. METHODS: A total of 200 workers were examined in this cross-sectional study. Individual noise exposure was measured by TES-1354 dosimeter (TES, TW) according to ISO 9612. Postural risk and job stress levels were assessed using Quick Exposure Check (QEC), and the Osipow occupational stress questionnaire, respectively. RESULTS: The level of noise exposure and awkward posture were significantly associated with work-related stress.The relationship of gender with occupational stress was also statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS: Considering that the noise exposure and work posture factors are important determinants of work-related stress, a combined approach to eliminate the levels of non-standard noise and inappropriate posture is essential for promoting psychological health in food companies.

Published: September 2022

Objective: This study aims to study whether hypospadias repair in primary cases can be done in a single stage. We present patients’ perspective and their outcomes in 268 primary hypospadias cases among which around 90% of patients (n=240) had their hypospadias surgery after recommended age of repair (18 months).  All primary cases were managed in a single stage. Material & Methods: From January 2010 – December 2019, 377 patients were included and outcomes were documented. Patients with prior hypospadias with complications (n=48), chordee without hypospadias (n=16), isolated penile torsion (n=12), and 33 patients who were lost to follow-up were excluded. The age at surgery, location of the meatus, chordee, associated anomalies, techniques used for correction,  postoperative complications with overall success rate and patient related outcomes were evaluated. Results: After orthoplasty, distal hypospadias was seen in 59% (n=158), middle in 22.8 % (n=61) & proximal in 13.1% (n=35) patients. Fourteen patients (5.2%) had penoscrotal transposition. Chordee was present in 71.2% (n=192) cases. Urethral closure was done using TIP alone in 18 cases, TIP, and spongioplasty (n=233). The success rate of one-stage surgery was 73.5% in our series which correlated with PRO with high significance. Conclusion: The rate of complications increased with the length of urethral tube reconstruction. Hypospadias fistula was the most common, followed by glanular dehiscence. The use of the TIP in primary repairs, spongioplasty & additional buffering layers reduced the complication rates. Patients can have acceptable residual chordee and torsion and their surgical results correlated well with patient related outcomes(PRO).

A protein component was modeled based on a mixture of milk protein concentrate and high-protein flour from sunflower shrot, which has a complete set of amino acids that meet the requirements for a reference protein. The use of a simulated protein component in the muffin recipe composition is proposed, which contributes to an increase in the content of complete protein. A modification of the muffin's carbohydrate profile has been carried out, which consists in replacing wheaten flour with a composition containing rye-oat flour, as well as in excluding a part of sugar and introducing an ingredient that does not cause a hyperglycemic effect - a sweetener trehalose. The introduction of milk thistle seedling sublimate provides the content of silymarin - a natural composition of biologically active substances in the finished product. This allows the developed product to be positioned as goods of gerodietetic purpose.

The quality of baked goods is mainly determined by the baking properties of the processed flour. The size of flour as a factor determining the rate of biochemical and colloidal processes in the dough, the properties of the dough, the quality and yield of bread, is an essential indicator of its baking value. In the techno chemical control of bakery production, the method for determining the size of flour is used as a method for determining the size of its particles and is carried out in accordance with GOST 27560–1987. The essence of the method of sieve analysis of flour is to control the fineness with the separation of the prepared sample into separate fractions, to establish the percentage of waste and passage through a set of sieves in accordance with GOST 4403–1991 and calculation of the average equivalent particle size. The purpose of this work was to analyze the variation in the size of amaranth flour obtained in laboratory and industrial conditions. For the variable attribute of the empirical population - the size of amaranth flour, as a result of the analysis of variations, interval series were constructed to obtain a median value characterizing the weighted average particle size. Sieve analysis of amaranth flour (6 samples) showed that the size of the flour can meet the requirements of GOST 7045–2017 for the content of the residue on a sieve made of silk fabric № 27 and be no more than 2% as for seeded rye flour; the requirement of GOST 7045–2017 for the passage through a sieve made of silk fabric № 38 and be at least 30% as for rye whole flour; the requirement of GOST 26574–2017 for the passage through a sieve of silk fabric № 38 and be at least 35% as for wheat whole flour; the requirement of GOST 26574–2017 for the passage through a sieve made of silk fabric № 38 and be at least 65% as for second grade wheat flour. Variations in the size index of amaranth flour (out of 6 samples) can be arranged in ascending sequence: 173,74 μm < 175,84 μm < 180,31 μm < 193,35 μm < 211,75 μm < 214,32 μm.

The reduction of sown areas both in Russia and around the world leads to a decrease in the amount of grain grown such crops as rye and wheat, which are the main ones for the production of bakery and flour confectionery. There is a need to develop, for the purpose of agricultural use, less favorable areas around the world, which in turn leads to the impossibility of using classic crops. This situation led to the emergence of a new agricultural crop, which combined the properties of both wheat and rye, called triticale. It has been established that the amount of mineral substances in the triticale grain, when moving from the edge of the grain to its center, does not change linearly, but has pronounced zones of maximum and minimum values. Three characteristic zones of the peripheral parts of the triticale grain of the Nemchinovsky 56 variety can be distinguished in terms of the content of mineral substances: the first is the zone of the outer shells of the caryopsis, characterized by a moderate content of mineral substances (removal percentage from 0 to 4,33%), the ash content of the hulled triticale grain is 1,78%; the second - the zone of the medial (middle) shells, characterized by an extremely low content of minerals (the percentage of removal from 4,33 to 6,81%), the ash content of the hulled grain of triticale is 1,71%; the third is the zone of deep shells, characterized by a high content of mineral substances (the percentage of removal from 6,81 to 13%), the ash content of the hulled grain of triticale is 1,39%.

To obtain high-quality planting material, there is wide use of the method of micropropagation. In this study, there were optimized the conditions of adaptation and active growth of micro shoots of Malus niedzwetzkyana in the growth room and greenhouse were obtained by micropropagation. For adaptation, rooted micro shoots were planted in soil with different pH. The results showed that neutralized peat with perlite is the optimal condition for the adaptation of micro-shoots, and KNO3 is the optimal solution for irrigation, where the survival rate was 95%. For further growth in greenhouse conditions, 3 types of fertilizers for irrigation were studied such as carbamide (nitrogen), superphosphate (phosphorus), potassium sulfate (potassium). High survival rate and the greatest increase in all parameters in Malus niedzwetzkyana were obtained by watering with fertilizer with phosphorus. Also, an analysis of the genetic identity between the mother tree and the clones was carried out. SSR analysis using markers Hi04a08, CN444542, Aj000761 showed complete identity between the original tree and the resulting clones. This confirms that micropropagation of Malus niedzwetzkyana is an effective method for obtaining genetically stable, healthy planting material for landscaping.

This applies, first of all, to the indicators of total assets and the condition of formed insurance reserves, the identified tendency was observed against the background of a significant reduction in insurance companies in the market. Simultaneously, it is found that as of the beginning of 2021, three-quarters of insurance companies comply with solvency requirements and financial standards. It is emphasized that the current conditions of risk-causing market environment require the implementation of balanced regulatory and supervisory activities in the insurance market in accordance with the Pan-European requirements of «Solvency I» and «Solvency II». A critical analysis of key articles of the Law of Ukraine «On Insurance» (2021) on ensuring solvency and investment activity testifies to their innovative nature and direction of integration of the national market into the European insurance space. The authors’ own vision of prudential regulation is formulated, which consists in systematic coordination of actions of both the State-based and non-state institutions in the insurance market to effectively neutralize the possible risks associated with the livelihoods of society. A conceptual vision of further development of prudential regulation in Ukraine is defined, which is based on three following components: increasing transparency in the activities of insurance companies, increasing requirements for the solvency of insurers as a guarantee of their fulfillment of contractual obligations, improving the corporate governance system as a basis for ensuring the competitiveness of the insurer in the market. Prospects for further research are the digitalization of regulatory processes in the insurance market of Ukraine.

Nowadays Ukrainian society is faced with a new problem of preserving social and economic capital, maintaining socioeconomic balance and forming strategies for the further postwar recovery of the country, which requires an assessment of the state of the national labor market with the development of proposals for supporting the employment of the population. Therefore, the article is aimed at evaluating the consequences of the war in Ukraine in terms of a decrease in the level of employment, determining the directions for preserving / creating jobs, taking into account the present conditions where Ukraine has to deal with military hostilities, taking into account the principles of forming a competitive economy. The article is concerned with outlining the main threats of war for the national labor market with the definition of the main directions of the employment support. The loss of labor potential is analyzed, which is one of the acute humanitarian problems. Based on the calculation of the coefficient of elasticity of employment, a forecast of a decrease in the level of employment in 2022 appears as a result of a decline in the economy because of military actions on the territory of Ukraine. The biggest drops in employment are possible with a 50% drop in GDP and an increased sensitivity between falling GDP and employment. Therefore, the State regulation of the labor market should take place taking into account the fact that during the recession it is necessary to reduce such sensitivity, and with the subsequent postwar recovery of the economy is important, on the contrary, to increase the sensitivity between GDP growth and employment to ensure maximum social and labor involvement of the population of Ukraine, which is quite possible with a large-scale reconstruction of the country and the development of the economy, which will be accompanied by an increase in demand for labor. Measures are proposed to support employment in accordance with the conditions of the national economy of wartime, which will contribute to an increase in the level of GDP and the level of income of the population. The role of non-standard forms of employment in coordinating the negative consequences of the economic crisis in Ukraine is determined. It is proposed to use such programs to protect wage recipients as «work-sharing», subsidization of wages, etc.

On February 24, 2022, russia launched an all-out invasion of Ukraine. This situation has radically changed the relations between the states, marked a point of no return in the relations between the once fraternal peoples, changed the vectors and priorities for the further development of Ukraine, and created new challenges in all spheres of its life. Moreover, the war in the center of Europe affected the world economy as a whole and the economy of many individual countries, as well as migration and sociopolitical processes. All this was reflected in the change in the research priorities in the world and, in particular, in Ukraine. The purpose of this study is to formulate generalized proposals on ways to counter russia’s military aggression. The article analyzes: World Military Strength Ranking 2022, losses of the russian armed forces as of 15.06.2022; changes in the number of personnel, weapons and equipment of Ukraine’s Armed Forces in 1991-2021. Also a comparative quantitative assessment of the armed forces of Ukraine and russia in 2021 was carried out, considering weaknesses and miscalculations in the formation and development of independent Ukraine that had allowed a full-scale war to take place on its territory. The military potential of the Ukrainian and Russian armies in 1991 and 2021 is compared, new types of weapons developed in Ukraine are considered. The results of Delphi analysis of the Ukrainian defense industry clusters necessary for asymmetric deterrence against an external aggression over the time horizon until 2030 are presented. The ways to provide Ukraine’s Armed Forces with the main types of weapons and military equipment are defined. The conducted research has allowed us to determine that russia, being a country with geopolitical ambitions, will always present a threat to Ukraine, so the national security of our country must be built with consideration for the military and economic strength of the aggressor country. Сonsequently Ukraine must enter into at least one military and economic alliance with other European and world countries. Moreover, Ukraine must have a strong diversified defense industry complex, which will produce its own competitive weapons and military equipment both independently and jointly with other European and world countries or under licenses from foreign manufacturers. Ukraine’s Armed Forces must have such a structure of their services and branches that would allow them to withstand threats from the russian armed forces or asymmetric types of weapons and military equipment that would make it possible to conduct the 2nd, 3rd and 6th generation war.

The article generalizes the theoretical and methodological bases of strategic planning for the development of regions of Ukraine and develops a mechanism for strategic planning (SP) for the development of territories. It is determined that strategic planning for the development of regions is a very important instrument of the State-based regulation, which helps to maintain all the necessary economic proportions, ensures the scheduled functioning of all parts of the economic system of society. For the Ukrainian economy, strategic planning is very relevant and important, as it allows predicting the processes of privatization and demonopolization, the formation of various forms of asset ownership, the consequences of technological renewal of production and much more. As the economy stabilizes, the possibilities of identifying trends and regularities of regional development spread, the degree of predictability of changes and behavior of various economic entities increases. It is noted that in modern regional management there is a shortage in scientific support of development conceptions, targeted planning of the regional economy. Insufficiently developed are technologies for the formation of scenarios for socioeconomic development, as well as instruments of public-private partnership. The issues of applied nature concerning the use in practice of strategic planning and the mechanism for forming a strategy for the socioeconomic development of the region require further theoretical and methodological development. It is concluded that the existing problems of increasing the efficiency of strategic planning for the development of Ukrainian regions can be solved on the basis of the introduction of an effective mechanism, which remains in its infancy today. The proposed mechanism of strategic planning for the development of territories will allow both in theory and in practice to improve the quality of life of the population, will affect the reduction of mortality rates, increase the level of ecological safety, promote the development of priority industries, and generally increase the competitiveness of regional economic systems

This paper demonstrates an experimental attempt to prototype electric vehicle charging station’s (EVCS) decision-making unit, using artificial neural network (ANN) algorithm. The algorithm acts to minimize the queuing delay in the station, with respect to the vehicle state of charge (SOC), and the expected arrival time. A simplified circuit model has been used to prototype the proposed algorithm, to minimize the overall queuing delay. Herein, the worst-case scenario is considered by having number of electric vehicles arriving to the station at the same time greater than the charging points available in the station side. Accordingly, the optimization technique was applied to reduce the mean charging time of the vehicles and minimize queuing delay. Results showed that this model can help in reducing the queuing delay by around 20% of the mean charging time of the station, while referring to a bare model without ANN algorithm as a reference.
