Background: Although infection with SARS-CoV-2 results in protective immune responses in recovered patients, reinfection with the virus is not impossible. Here we systematically reviewed literature-based-reported cases of reinfections in order to explore the virus-related, clinical, and demographic characteristics of re-infection in patients.

Methods: This is a systematic review of all case reports of reinfection since the pandemic has begun. We searched through PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, Google Scholar, and Embase databases and selected case reports and case series of reinfections by genetically confirmed COVID-19 virus strains.

Results: Among 360 cases reported, just 39 cases met our criteria (genetically confirmed COVID-19 virus strains).  The mean ± standard deviation of the age was 42 ± 17.4 (17.4 SD) with an equal proportion of males and females. The Second infection was asymptomatic or mild in most cases. The interval between the first and second infection was from 11 to 286 days. Nineteen patients had no underlying diseases, and four patients were immunodeficient due to immunosuppressive therapy. The First and second infection viruses were from different clades in 20 patients. Close to half of the reinfection occurred in health care workers.

Conclusion: Evidence suggests that there is no guarantee that infection with SARS-CoV-2 protects from reinfection and that even immunocompetent patients are prone to be reinfected in the virus strain changes

Authors: Alyateem Sami , Abu Al-Ola Layla Mohammad Hosni
Published: September 2022

Background: Nursing graduates are expected to hit the ground and be ready to lead their way when joining their first workplace. Although, many literatures have highlighted graduated nursing students’ readiness for practice, this hasn’t been explored in Jordan up to the researcher knowledge. The purpose of this study was to investigate the degree of Jordanian nursing colleges graduate’s readiness for practice from clinical nursing leaders’ (CNL) perspective. Methods: This study used a quantitative descriptive method. The researcher utilized the 22 items Casey- Fink survey to explore the degree of new graduates’ readiness for practice. The validity of the Casey- Fink Readiness for Practice Survey has been reported in previous international studies. The study sample consisted of 268 CNLs and data was analyzed through SPSS by calculating frequencies, percentages, means and standard deviations. Results: The overall results showed a moderate degree of readiness to practice among nursing graduates from CNLs perspectives. Conclusion: It was highly recommended to enhance simulation-based learning within undergraduate nursing education, as it mimics the future workplace, especially in developing and enhancing critical thinking, problem solving, and decision-making abilities. More connections for students with the nursing professional body outside the university may start at early academic stages, connecting them with national nursing councils, Committees, and health organizations to improve their leadership competence and make them ready for workplace when graduating.

Authors: A. Molla Azaher , S. Terry Miranda , Maghrabi Priscilla
Published: September 2022

Private health insurance is the primary source of coverage for most Americans. During the year 2016, 91.2% American had health insurance coverage (Bureau, US Census: 2016). The un-insurance rate in Kentucky decreased from 15.9% in2009 to 8.5% in 2014. It is a common belief that health insurance impacts positively to preventive care including vaccination and screening. This may be the case for urban educated and high-income dwellers. However, rural population are usually less educated with lower income. This study aims to analyze the impacts of health insurance on preventive care utilization in a rural setting, Graves County, Kentucky. We find a strong correlation between having health insurance and preventive care utilization. Our regression analysis shows that both private and employer provided insurance are good predictors of preventive care utilization. The findings are crucial to the health planners and policy makers.

Authors: SAĞLAMEL Hasan , ERBAY ÇETİNKAYA Şakire
Published: September 2022

The current COVID-19 situation has affected almost all walks of life, including language education. As a result, remote teaching practices have become the mainstream offering in many settings. However, how students respond to this transition needs to be grasped to develop a deeper understanding of the educational practices at this period. Metaphor analysis was used as a methodology to unpack how language learners conceptualize learning and instruction during the emergency remote teaching (ERT) in a COVID-19 context. To this end, an open-ended questionnaire in which the participants provided their background and a semi-structured form through which their metaphorical images were captured were used. Elicited metaphor analysis was used to analyze the data gathered from 208 English majoring students studying at a state university in north-eastern Turkey. The results suggest that a great many students have unfavorable dispositions towards ERT, even though some reported that they cherish these opportunities as they help them keep track of their own learning. Several suggestions are made in the light of the findings.

Authors: ŞAT Mustafa , İLHAN Fatih , YUKSELTURK Erman
Published: September 2022

The outbreak of Covid-19 has pushed almost all education-based institutions to migrate their available face-to-face teaching to online teaching. However, online education has posed challenges, especially for learners who are quiet and shy to speak and feeling hard to engage in the course content. At this point, turning Web 2.0 tools into icebreaker activities and incorporating them into online courses could help these students get motivated and develop active participation skills. This study took a selective and theoretical look into the literature about exploring potential Web 2.0 tools and prescribing how to use these tools as e icebreakers in hybrid or online courses. The findings highlighted many Web 2.0 tools and described how to utilize them in online learning platforms as e icebreakers. Suggestions about how to design Web 2.0 tool-involved e icebreakers are provided. The study has important implications for instructors striving to keep learners engaged in online or hybrid courses.

Published: September 2022

In the technology era that we are in, teaching with traditional method is not sufficient alone in increasing efficiency. Varied content, whether technological or not, has an important place to increase the effectiveness of teaching. The methods and models used in the selection and usage of these contents are also considered important in terms of achieving the targeted success. In this study, the effects of mobile applications used in foreign language learning were examined on students' academic achievement. A total of 87 students from the Experiment-1 (E1), Experiment-2 (E2) and Control (C) groups consist of the sampling of this study. The English Achievement Test (EAT) was applied to all three groups as pretest and posttest. C group has attended to the regular face-to-face classroom teaching while students in E1 and E2 groups additionally used Duolingo and Memrise, respectively. In addition, volunteer parents and students’ opinions about mobile applications were received after the implementation. In line with the results obtained by comparing the groups with respect to each other, it was concluded that the E2 group obtained higher scores from EAT than the E1 and C group. Particularly, there is a higher increase in the average score in the "Reading and Writing" section of the E2 group. According to the opinions of students and parents, both applications can be said to improve academic success positively.

Published: September 2022

OBJECTIVE

Endoscopic strip craniectomy for metopic craniosynostosis relies on rapid growth and postoperative helmeting for correction. Endoscopic repair is generally performed before patients reach 4 months of age, and outcomes in older patients have yet to be quantified. Here, the authors examined a cohort of patients treated with endoscopic repair before or after 4 months of age to determine aesthetic outcomes of delayed repairs.

METHODS

Data from eligible patients were retrospectively assessed and aggregated in a dedicated metopic synostosis database. Inclusion criteria were radiographically confirmed metopic synostosis and endoscopic treatment. Patients were dichotomized into two groups: those younger than 4 months and those 4 months or older at the time of repair. The frontal width and interfrontal divergence angle (IFDA) were measured on reconstructed CT images. These measurements, alongside operative time, estimated blood loss, and transfusion rates, were compared between groups using the Student t-test or chi-square test.

RESULTS

The study population comprised 28 patients treated before 4 months of age and 8 patients treated at 4–6 months of age. Patient sex and perioperative complications did not differ by age group. Older age at repair was not significantly associated with 1-year postoperative IFDA (140° ± 4.2° vs 142° ± 5.0°, p = 0.28) or frontal width (84 ± 5.2 vs 83 ± 4.4 mm, p = 0.47).

CONCLUSIONS

One-year postoperative IFDA and frontal width do not differ significantly between patients treated before and after 4 months of age. Further study with longer follow-up is necessary to confirm the longevity of these results at skeletal maturity.

ОСОБЛИВОСТІ АНТИКРИЗОВОГО УПРАВЛІННЯ В УМОВАХ ІНФОРМАЦІЙНИХ ЕКСТЕРНАЛІЙ
Authors: Mykhailova Ye. V. , Savina N. B.
Published: September 2022

У статті розглянуто особливості антикризового управління у умовах інформаційних екстерналій. Оскільки інформаційні екстерналії, що розгортаються в інформаційному полі, впливають на всі сфери суспільного, економічного та політичного життя, і такий негативний вплив, який проявляється в падінні попиту, зниженні платоспроможності населення, зниженні конкурентного стану, ослабленні кадрового потенціалу та ін., що надалі може призвести до реальної кризи, вихід з якої можливий лише із впровадженням антикризового управління, що має свої особливості в умовах  інформаційних екстерналій. З огляду на те, що основними компонентами інформаційних екстреналій є високі технології, людський капітал, прагма-психологія, у дослідженні описуються напрямки антикризового управління, які будуть реалізуватись у віртуалізації підприємства, кадровій політиці та брендингу.Процес віртуалізації підприємства передбачає створення за допомогою інформаційно-комунікативних технологій віртуального ринку, віртуальної реальності та віртуальної організації підприємства. Крім того, віртуалізація підприємства реалізовує такі функції: комунікативну,управління даними, маркетинг, вдосконалення процесу, планування ресурсів.Кадрова політика в антикризовому управлінні в умовах інформаційної війни орієнтується на контроль за витратами бюджету, на вдоволення працівників, на навчання та розвиток, на розв’язання конфліктів та на підвищення продуктивності. З іншого боку така політика передбачає вирішення поточних проблем співробітників, залучення нових співробітників, звільнення співробітників, підвищення морального духу.Оскільки маркетингова стратегія безпосередньо впливає на ефективність антикризового управління в умовах інформаційної війни, а брендинг є основним елементом, його реалізація допомагає виділитись серед конкурентів, сформувати пізнаваність бренду, створити постійний досвід роботи з брендом, створити зв’язок із аудиторією та перетворити їх на лояльних клієнтів. Ефективна маркетингова стратегія оперує ресурсами підприємства для створення контенту, який охоплює дослідження ринку, визначення профілю цільового ринку, визначення унікальності товару, реалізацію маркетингової стратегії, визначення цілей та бюджету.

Zasady europejskiego prawa spółdzielczego z perspektywy polskich wyzwań legislacyjnych
Authors: Zakrzewski Piotr
Published: September 2022

Zasady Europejskiego Prawa Spółdzielczego (PECOL) są akademickim projektem prawa spół­dzielczego, który w założeniu ma stanowić punkt odniesienia dla ustawodawcy krajowego, np. polskiego, przed którym stoi zadanie uchwalenia nowego prawa spółdzielczego. PECOL składają się z pięciu rozdziałów: pojęcie i przedmiot spółdzielni, ład spółdzielni, struktura finansowa spółdzielni, audyt spółdzielczy oraz współpraca mię­dzy spółdzielniami. Rozdziały dzielą się na sekcje, a te na punkty. PECOL nie obejmują podziału, połączenia i prze­kształceń spółdzielni. Głównym założeniem PECOL jest wierność celom, wartościom i zasadom spółdzielczym Międzynarodowego Związku Spółdzielczego. Założenia te są widoczne w regulacji celów spółdzielni dwóch ty­pów, zasadzie otwartego członkostwa, braku związania prawa głosu członka z wielkością wniesionego kapitału, niepodzielności kapitału, audycie spółdzielczym, który weryfikuje realizację tych założeń, obowiązku współpracy między spółdzielniami itp. PECOL szczególnie dokładnie reguluje kluczową kwestię transakcji z członkami oraz osobami, które do spółdzielni nie należą oraz wynik finansowy, który wskutek tego powstaje. PECOL jako pierw­szy rozróżnia między cooperative refund i zyskiem spółdzielni. Zawiera także rozwiązania wywodzące się z prawa spółek handlowych, np. zbywalność akcji, członek inwestor itp. PECOL stanowi więc cenną syntezę tradycyjnych i współczesnych rozwiązań. PECOL zawęża jednocześnie swobodę statutową członków, którzy nie mogą np. po­stanowić o podzielności majątku pozostałego po likwidacji spółdzielni.

Published: September 2022

Perkembangan karies gigi pada anak begitu cepat karena gigi susu (gigi pertama yang tumbuh pada anak) cenderung memiliki lapisan email dan dentin yang lebih tipis. Yang mana lama kelamaan karies gigi dapat menyebabkan gigi berlubang dan bahkan gigi tanggal. Karies gigi akan mempengaruhi pertumbuhan dan perkembangan gigi permanen kelak.

Pemahaman tentang karies gigi pada anak perlu ditingkatkan agar tidak terjadi masalah kesehatan gigi. Pelayanan kesehatan gigi dan mulut yang diberikan oleh Petugas kesehatan selama ini hanya sebatas ceramah dan pemeriksaan gigi sehingga dirasa kurang menarik bagi anak yang berdampak pada tidak ada peningkatan pengetahuan maupun keterampilan untuk mengatasi maupun mencegah terjadinya masalah karies gigi pada anak. Dengan melihat kondisi yang ada, maka kami berinisiatif mendatangai TK Miftahul Huda untuk mendiskusikan masalah-masalah terkait karies gigi. Dari hasil diskusi, terlihat banyak masalah yang dihadapi seperti: (1) Sebagian besar anak tidak menggosok gigi saat akan ke TK; (2) Anak sering absen akibat sakit gigi; (3) Anak suka jajan makanan dan minuman yang manis; Berdasarkan masalah dan rencana solusi yang telah didiskusikan dengan mitra, maka kami mengimplementasikan dengan cara penyululuhan tentang karies gigi dengan metode permainan kartu.

Tujuan dalam pengabdian ini untuk (1) Anak merasa senang dan nyaman belajar tentang karies gigi dengan menggunakan alat permainan kartu (2) Mampu mengidentifikasi karies gigi (3) Memberikan motivasi dan merangsang anak untuk melakukan pencegahan karies gigi. Pengabdian ini akan dilakukan di TK Miftahul Huda Segeran Kidul Kecamatan Juntinyuat Kabupaten Indramayu.

Background: Mulberry fruit is a source of phenolic compounds and has biological properties. This study aimed to assess the effects of isomaltooligosaccharide (IMO) added to mulberry juice on prebiotic activity and gut fermentation properties.Objectives: The study aimed to produce mulberry juice supplemented with IMO, which might generate short chain fatty acids (SCFA), and to examine the effects of a prebiotic activity after fecal fermentation.Materials and methods: Functional mulberry juices were prepared with three different levels of isomaltooligosaccharide (IMO), namely 0% (MBI0), 2% (MBI2), and 8% (MBI8). The study tested mulberry juices supplemented with IMO, which generated short-chain fatty acids (SCFA), phenolic metabolites, and favored beneficial gut bacteria, and examined the prebiotic activity after fecal fermentation by the colonic microbiota. A crossflow hollow fiber microfiltration system with a 0.22 μm pore size was employed to deliver permeates considered non-thermally pasteurized juices.Results: The results show that short chain fatty acids (SCFA) included large propionic acid and butyric acid concentrations at 48h. The percent of bifidobacteria significantly increased to 5.03% and 17.53% in 24 hours fermentation of MBI2 and MBI8, respectively. After fecal batch culture fermentation, some anthocyanin metabolites such as 3-(2-hydroxyphenyl) propionic acid, 3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde, L-phenylalanine, and aminocaproic acid, were detected. Therefore, IMO can serve as a potential prebiotic ingredient added in mulberry juice for promoting the growth of beneficial gut microbiota.Conclusion: The results show that IMO favored beneficial microorganisms in the gut and contributed to biologically active compounds such as metabolites of polyphenols and anthocyanins in the gut.Keywords: Mulberry, isomaltooligosaccharide, prebiotic, gut microbiota, metabolites

Based on the refined S.P. Timoshenko shear model, one-dimensional finite elements for modeling the dynamic response of flat rods with clamped section of finite length on one of the front faces have been constructed. To analyze their stationary dynamic response under harmonic external action, a system of resolving equations in a complex form is formed. Three models of kinematic conjugation of clamped and free sections of rods are developed using the equation of connection between the rotation angle of the cross section and axial displacement at the boundary between the marked parts of the rod, the transitional finite element, and the concept of a single finite element with nodes located on one of its front faces. It is noted that for practical implementation, the most convenient model is one that uses a single finite element to represent fixed and free sections of the rod. On the basis of the noted model, a finite element solution of the problem of transverse bending vibrations of a cantilevered flat rod under vibration loading conditions by a periodic axial force applied to the end section of a clamped section of finite length, as well as the problem of transverse bending vibrations of a flat rod with two free ends and clamped length section between them under vibration loading by a transverse force on one of the free ends of the rod was found. The results of the finite element solution of the noted two problems are in good agreement with the previously obtained exact analytical solutions found on the basis of the S.P. Timoshenko shear model. The presence of a significant transformation of the parameters of the stress-strain state of the considered rods during the transition through the boundary from free to the clamped length areas on one of the face surfaces is noted.

Three-dimensional geometrically and physically nonlinear problems of nonstationary deformation of structures are considered. The defining system of equations is formulated in Lagrange variables. The equation of motion is derived from the balance of virtual work capacities. The elastic-plastic deformation of structural materials is described by the relations of the flow theory with isotropic hardening. The solution of the problem is based on the moment scheme of the finite element method. The discretization of the problem by spatial variables is carried out by eight nodal finite elements with multilinear functions of the approximation form of the displacement velocity. Time integration is performed according to an explicit finite-difference scheme of the “cross” type, which does not have the monotonicity property. Due to the dispersion in the vicinity of the gap, it generates non-physical oscillations, which significantly limits the scope of its applicability. In this paper, to suppress high-frequency oscillations, it is proposed to use an algorithm for conservative smoothing of a numerical solution with a space-time monotony analyzer. Based on it, software modules have been developed for the “Dynamics-3” computing complex. Verification of the developed technique and its software implementation was carried out by solving a one-dimensional problem in a three-dimensional formulation of the compression wave passing through a fixed elastic layer. For comparison, the results of numerical solution of the problem according to the “cross” scheme without smoothing, with linear viscosity, with conservative smoothing using spatial and spatiotemporal monotonicity analyzers are obtained. The problem of penetration of an elastic cylinder into a round steel plate is solved in a three-dimensional formulation. It is shown that the developed technique not only suppresses high-frequency oscillations, but also prevents the occurrence of zero-energy modes. So, in the second problem, without using the procedure of conservative smoothing of the numerical solution, the final elements of the plate in the collision zone are significantly distorted, which leads to an early interruption of the calculation.

The term “neural plasticity” was first used to describe non-pathological changes in neuronal structure. Today, it is generally accepted that the brain is a dynamic system whose morphology and function is influenced by a variety of factors including stress, diet, and exercise. Neural plasticity involves learning and memory, the synthesis of new neurons, the repair of damaged connections, and several other compensatory mechanisms. It is altered in neurodegenerative disorders and following damage to the central or peripheral nervous system. Understanding the mechanisms that regulate neural plasticity in both healthy and diseased states is of significant importance to promote cognition and develop rehabilitation techniques for functional recovery after injury. In this minireview, we will discuss the mechanisms by which environmental factors promote neural plasticity with a focus on exercise- and diet-induced factors. We will highlight the known circulatory factors that are released in response to exercise and discuss how all factors activate pathways that converge in part on the activation of BDNF signaling. We propose to harness the therapeutic potential of exercise by using BDNF as a biomarker to identify novel endogenous factors that promote neural plasticity. We also discuss the importance of combining exercise factors with dietary factors to develop a lifestyle pill for patients afflicted by CNS disorders.

A pilot study was carried out in a local secondary school to measure the effectiveness of digital literacy in terms of flipped classroom teaching. A grade seven science class was purposefully flipped and compared with traditional teaching classroom arrangement to evaluate the student's academic achievement. The population of study comprises all male and female 259 students of class seven, first term of session 2019-20. Study sample was further divided into two groups: two sections of boys (61 male students) and two sections of girls (66 female students) were randomly selected as the experimental group, the flipped classroom. The remaining four sections (132 students) performed as a control group, the traditional classroom. Instructional strategies were the independent variable. Student's achievement grades in pretest, ongoing posttest assessments and term exam were dependent variables. Scores of pretest were compared with posttest ongoing assessments and school term exams. The analysis was made through t-test and ANCOVA. At the end of the thirteenth week, a Likert scale survey was conducted to evaluate the student's perception regarding the learning environment in flipped class. The results indicated that” (i) there is a statistically significant difference between achievement scores of the flipped class compare to traditional class students. Flipped class students achieved better results than conventional class learners. (ii) Analysis indicated that there is no significant difference in achievement scores among male and female students of the experimental and control group. (iii) Likert scale survey results showed students increased involvement, mutual interaction and in-depth learning in flipped classroom environment. This study is a contribution to a positive change in the prevailing education system of Pakistan by transferring a deeper understanding of the importance of student-centered learning.
