Authors: Sari Intan Azura Ira , Nasution Burhan , Putra Riza Aulia
Published: July 2024

Di masa yang sudah modern ini, diperlukannya pembangunan dan perkembangan fasilitas-fasilitas kabupaten/kota yang menuntut berbagai kebutuhan dalam melaksanakan berbagai kegiatan daerah tersebut. Dengan terpenuhinya segala fasilitas di suatu daerah dapat membangkitkan semangat masyarakat untuk melakukan kegiatan yang bermanfaat. Stadion merupakan salah satu fasilitas kabupaten/kota yang harus memiliki fasilitas yang baik dan sesuai dengan standar. Stadion Haji Syahadat, merupakan stadion yang belum memenuhi standar untuk menunjang aktifitas dan antusias masyarakat oleh karena itu perancangan ulang dibutuhkan oleh stadion untuk dapat memenuhi standar kegiatan fungsional stadion. Stadion Haji Syahadat terletak di pinggiran Kota Kutacane dan berada di kawasan perkantoran dan fasilitas umum, sehingga setiap saat daerah ini terlihat ramai. Ditambah adanya pasar tradisional dikawasan ini. Lalu tata ruang stadion yang tidak teratur, parkiran yang menyatu dengan lapangan volli dan panggung. Kurangnya lahan parkiran dan aksesibilitas yang tidak baik. Selain menjadi pusat dari perlombaan dan pertandingan olahraga, Stadion Haji Syahadat sering di jadikan pusat Acara kesenian tahunan, yang dimana hal tersebut sering membuat macet jalan dikarenakan tidak tersedia lokasi parkir di sekitar stadion. Perancangan ulang ini perlu dilakukan agar Stadion Haji Syahadat memiliki fasilitas yang lebih baik daripada sebelumnya dan dapat memenuhi standar fungsional stadion yang dapat menunjang kegiatan-kegiatan yang dilaksanakan.

Kisah Arjunawiwaha pada Relief Goa Selomangleng Tulungagung sebagai Inspirasi Penciptaan Batik Lukis
Authors: Wahyuni Kartika Indah , Widodo Triyono , Sidyawati Lisa
Published: July 2024

Goa Selomangleng merupakan situs budaya yang ada di Tulungagung. Goa ini memiliki relief yang menggambarkan cerita kisah Arjunawiwaha. Tetapi situs ini kurang adanya renovasi sehingga banyak masyarakat yang tidak tahu letaknya bahkan cerita yang terkandung pada reliefnya. Ketertarikan penulis pada situs budaya ini adalah ketika penulis merasakan kepekaan artistik terhadap relief Arjunawiwaha yang diolah dan diciptakan melalui kegelisahan penciptanya. Latar belakang tersebut menjadi landasan dalam berkarya untuk mengenalkan situs budaya yang memiliki banyak nilai moral namun banyak masyarakat yang belum mengetahui bahkan mengenalnya. Tujuan penciptaan ini adalah mendeskripsikan ide konsep batik lukis yang terinspirasi dari kisah Arjunawiwaha, mendeskripsikan proses kreatif penciptaan batik Lukis dan mendeskripsikan hasil dari penciptaan karya batik lukis. Terwujudnya karya batik lukis ini diharapkan relief yang menceritakan tentang Arjunawiwaha ini lebih dikenal oleh masyarakat luas. Proses penciptaan batik lukis ini menggunakan metode penciptaan Alma Hawkins yang memiliki 3 proses yaitu eksplorasi, improvisasi/perancangan dan perwujudan. Karya batik lukis yang diciptakan menjadi dua karya yang berasal dari alur kisah Arjuna namun diciptakan menjadi karya yang interpretatif dan mengekspresikan kegelisahan pencipta. Kedua karya tersebut berjudul Harta, Tahta, Wanita dan Bebedheg Ganjaran. Karya batik lukis bertema Arjunawiwaha ini, sebagai sarana pengenalan situs budaya yang harus dikenal dan dijaga kelestariannya.

Multifunctional furniture is a product that can be used for various activities, but it is essential to consider the design safety standards, especially from the aspect of its functionality design, because this furniture is located in crowded public areas. Field reviews show that many product facility designs have inadequate safety and comfort standards, which can adversely affect visitors, such as injuries, accidents, and negative behaviors and perceptions. Based on this, the research aims to align the management process of the functional design of urban park facilities with the visitors' motivation for activities. In the audit process, the researcher uses the concept development principles of the Function-Behavior-Structure (FBS) method, which is a theory of product design safety activation to determine priority facilities that need attention based on the types of design elements used. This research was conducted in a comprehensive type park in the city of Surabaya, specifically the Surabaya Zoo (KBS), using quantitative descriptive analysis methods. The results of this study indicate the need for recommendations for facility product designs that are safer and more functional.
Charges to Generators For Solid Waste Management Services: An Analysis of The Financial Sustainability of Brazilian Municipalities
Authors: Dutra Renato Meira de Sousa , Siman Renato Ribeiro
Published: July 2024

Purpose: To analyze the generator charging models established in Brazilian cities, evaluating the effect on financial self-sufficiency in urban solid waste management (USWM) services.
 
Theoretical framework: Brazilian municipalities have faced difficulties in implementing charging for USWM services, which is based on the polluter-pay principle. Although national legislation makes charging possible, the lack of updated data, trained human resources, and planning, among others, results in unsuccessful charging strategies as well as low charging.
 
Method: A documentary research was carried out with 1,851 Brazilian municipalities that reported charging for USWM services in 2021, which represents around 47% of the Brazilian population.
 
Results and conclusion: The results indicate that the implementation of collection increased by 17% in Brazil, but only 8% of municipalities achieved financial self-sufficiency. The 151 self-sufficient municipalities implemented systems using the area of the property in the collection calculation methodology. In the end, good practices for the implementation of the charging were listed.
 
Research implications: The results obtained enable municipal managers to learn about the challenges of implementing collection and about which models are practiced in Brazil, helping in the decision-making process.
 
Originality/value: The evaluation of the collection models established in Brazilian cities and the variables used to calculate the collection contribute to the design of public policies that provide a fair and balanced charging for the provision of USWM services.

Published: July 2024

Objective: To analyze the applicability of the sustainability tripod as a management mechanism in organizations
 
Methodology: The research adopted a bibliographic research-based approach, reviewing relevant studies, scientific papers, and theses on organizational sustainability. The methodology included an extensive survey on platforms such as Scielo, Scopus and Google Academic, followed by a critical analysis and synthesis of the data collected.
 
Results and discussions: The results of the survey reveal that companies are adopting sustainable practices in several dimensions. In the environmental dimension, there is a significant effort to reduce carbon emissions, optimize resource use and implement clean technologies, aiming not only to mitigate environmental impacts but also to strengthen corporate reputation. Regarding the social dimension, investments in corporate social responsibility, diversity, inclusion and partnerships with NGOs not only strengthen relations with external stakeholders, but also promote an internal motivating environment for employees. In the economic dimension, sustainability involves the efficient management of financial resources, transparency and ethical supply chains, contributing to inclusive and resilient economic growth. Analysis of the results suggests that effective integration of the sustainability tripod not only mitigated risks and improved the reputation of organizations, but also positioned them competitively in a market where sustainability is increasingly valued. This model is not limited to corporate responsibility, but represents an opportunity for innovation, sustainable growth and a positive contribution to a balanced and prosperous future.
 
Conclusion: It is concluded that the sustainability tripod not only guides strategic and operational decisions, but also prepares organizations to face emerging challenges and meet the growing expectations of stakeholders concerned with environmental and social issues.
Un lugar de la memoria: Homenaje al rescate de José Chávez Morado
Authors: Comisarenco Mirkin Dina
Published: July 2024

En el presente trabajo se analiza el mural Homenaje al rescate (1989), de José Chávez Morado ubicado en Centro Médico Nacional Siglo XXI en la Ciudad de México. La obra representa el devastador sismo que había tenido lugar apenas unos años antes, en 1985, y es interpretada como un ejemplo del papel del arte para conservar la memoria histórica, y para elaborar el trauma no solo individual sino social,  creando al mismo tiempo una identidad colectiva que favorece el proceso de elaboración del duelo.

Revista de la Universidad de México: 1968, la colectividad como postura editorial
Authors: Hernández Acosta Miguel Ángel
Published: July 2024

En noviembre de 1968 la Revista de la Universidad de México (RUM) publicó un número que incluía una “Relación de los hechos” sobre el movimiento estudiantil y su trágico fin en Tlatelolco. Generalmente, la publicación incluía a autores literarios destacados de México y el mundo. Sin embargo, en dicho ejemplar designó a un colectivo que no pertenecía al canon literario para redactar la relación referida. Gracias al diseño de Vicente Rojo, las fotografías de Héctor García y un texto colectivo (al que se añadió una pieza narrativa de Alfonso Reyes y el fragmento de un poema de Octavio Paz), la RUM generó una narrativa que denunciaba el abuso del poder, abandonó su elitismo literario y otorgó a la colectividad un espacio hasta entonces negado: el central. Con esto mostró una postura editorial que enfrentó al poder del Estado. En este análisis, realizo una lectura del número, lo relaciono con otras publicaciones y rememoro el contexto social de la época para comprender lo atípico de dicho caso.Palabras clave: estudios literarios, revistas, Revista de la Universidad de México, movimiento estudiantil mexicano de 1968, estudios culturales
Oscuridad, destellos y luz: las primeras aproximaciones al cine zapatista (1983-1993)
Authors: Bastida Kullick Edén
Published: July 2024

Este artículo propone una revisión de las bases y evolución del cine zapatista durante sus diez años de clandestinidad (1983-1993). Si bien el periodo de mayor producción audiovisual sobre y desde el zapatismo se da luego del levantamiento de 1994, este recorrido permite reconocer elementos del consumo y producción de imágenes durante los años previos, que darían lugar al imaginario audiovisual que hoy les conforma, y que gradualmente se materializaría en sus propias realizaciones y narrativas, lo que ellos/as llaman el “cine de los compañeros”.
Oscuridad, destellos y luz son tres etapas de esta reconstrucción histórica que toma forma mediante una minuciosa recolección de memorias orales, registros de experiencias personales y análisis de escritos y documentos. Este trazo historiográfico entrelaza interrogantes sobre el rol del cine en aquellas épocas, la coyuntura sociopolítica y económica, los avances tecnológicos y los procesos llevados a cabo al interior del movimiento.
Palabras clave: Cine zapatista, cine militante, EZLN, movimientos sociales.
RESENTACIÓN
Authors: Martí Capitanachi Daniel Rolando
Published: July 2024

La temática que se desarrolla en este número se relaciona con la vivienda y la habitabilidad, tomando en consideración su visión tanto como derecho humano como su papel como satisfactor social. El caso de la vivienda adecuada ha sido ampliamente estudiado y debatido desde la caracterización hecha por ONU-Hábitat, a través de la publicación del Pacto de Derechos Económicos, Sociales y Culturales – DESC_. Por su parte, la habitabilidad, como cualidad del espacio para alojar las actividades humanas, ha ido ampliando los elementos esenciales para su definición al incorporar, además de a la vivienda, a la calle y al barrio, como unidades del entorno desasociables de la percepción de cobijo y desarrollo humano.
Armonización entre competencia económica y competencia ecológica en la producción de la ciudad
Authors: Humberto Sanabria Tadeo , Esteban Sanabria Juan
Published: July 2024

Este escrito reflexiona sobre los elementos que vinculan la competencia biológica y la competencia económica como las fuerzas que motivan las acciones y comportamientos humanos, con base en una reinterpretación de los conceptos de competencia y de sucesión biológica postulados por la ecología humana, y aplicados a las comunidades humanas residentes en la ciudad. Para ello el documento se soporta en una revisión bibliográfica y contrasta las posturas de una de las vertientes más influyentes de la ecología —con respecto a la interacción humana— con otros autores de la disciplina económica para demostrar que la racionalidad económica es la forma como la evolución biológica preserva la competencia como mecanismo para asegurar la supervivencia y el plan de vida individual. De esta manera, nuestras conclusiones manifiestan la urgencia de incorporar la visión de la ecología humana como criterio ordenador en la lógica de la planeación, a fin de mejorar los resultados de su implementación mediante la modelación de los mecanismos que la gobiernan y no los de la misma naturaleza humana.

Authors: Uehara Guerrero Ma Guadalupe Noemi , Sánchez García Juan Andrés , Cerqueda Méndez Alfredo
Published: July 2024

Este artículo expone los avances de un proyecto colaborativo entre el “Cuerpo Académico Arquitectura y Urbanismo para el Desarrollo” (UVCA-452) de la Universidad Veracruzana y el DIF municipal de Jilotepec, Veracruz. La iniciativa tiene como fin mejorar las viviendas de familias pertenecientes a grupos vulnerables, que incluyen personas con diversas discapacidades como motrices, visuales, auditivas, cognitivas, y/o psicosociales. Se busca adaptar y optimizar estos espacios para hacerlos más accesibles y confortables para todos los miembros del hogar. La metodología empleada consistió en levantamientos arquitectónicos realizados por estudiantes, complementados con entrevistas a las personas con discapacidad y sus cuidadores, para captar de manera precisa sus necesidades específicas. El análisis reveló condiciones de vida adversas, caracterizadas por espacios estrechos, insuficiente iluminación, ventilación y, en algunos casos, daños estructurales considerables que necesitan ser atendidos por la disciplina de arquitectura. El estudio aborda el desafío de no solo modificar las dimensiones físicas de las viviendas, sino también de capacitar a arquitectos en formación en la aplicación de principios de neurociencia, lo cual es esencial para diseñar espacios que mejoren perceptivamente la calidad de vida de los residentes. En este trabajo se identifica una carencia significativa de conocimientos en neuroarquitectura, subrayando la necesidad urgente de integrar estos principios en la disciplina arquitectónica, lo cual permitirá enfrentar eficazmente los desafíos del diseño inclusivo, promoviendo una vida más larga y confortable para personas con discapacidad.

Se indaga en los imaginarios, prácticas y expresiones que han configurado un espacio y un paisaje urbano, socialmente autoproducido, donde la vivienda ocupa un lugar preponderante y un sitio dentro del patrimonio cultural. Los principales ejes de estudio se centran en los nexos de la vivienda con sus habitantes, en relación con las formas, las funciones y las soluciones técnico-constructivas, así como en la multiplicidad de relaciones que establece en tanto componente del hábitat y factor de sostenibilidad social.
Apropiación del espacio público y personas adultas mayores; aproximación a dos casos de estudio
Authors: Galeana Cruz Selenne , Maya Pérez Esther
Published: July 2024

Conocer la apropiación y uso que hacen los adultos mayores o personas de la tercera edad del espacio público, constituye el propósito de este artículo. Se parte de la aproximación a dos casos de estudio: uno en el municipio de Tecámac, Estado de México y el otro en la Ciudad de Durango, Durango. Se utiliza el método cualitativo a partir de la observación participante de los espacios públicos y la aplicación de la entrevista semiestructurada a los adultos mayores que hacen uso de ellos. Los espacios públicos analizados funcionan como acicate para llevar a cabo diferentes funciones que motivan el contacto físico, la convivencia y el encuentro casual; su uso y apropiación dependen de las necesidades particulares de las personas adultas mayores. No obstante, su accesibilidad está limitada a ciertos micro-territorios fragmentados entre sí, lo cual afecta su movilidad. Entonces, es necesario pensar e incorporar las significaciones desde la perspectiva cambiante de las demandas, necesidades e intereses de tal grupo etario, con ello, impulsar un sentido de pertenencia e incidir en el envejecimiento activo.

Two Fausts: Once Again on Turgenev’s Interpretation of J. W. Goethe’s Philosophical Tragedy
Authors: Volkov I.O. ,   Tomsk State University Tomsk, Russian Federation
Published: July 2024

The article examines the creative perception of J. W. Goethe’s tragedy “Faust” by I. S. Turgenev. The novel bearing the same name, published in 1846 and representing the culmination of the author’s decade-long engagement with Goethe’s oeuvre, is subjected to analysis. Despite the long tradition of studying the novella in relation to the German pretext, a new consideration of the principles of the tradition’s embodiment leads to a deepening of its meanings. By identifying significant points of convergence between Turgenev’s “Faust” and Goethe’s tragedy, Turgenev does not remain at the level of mere direct influence. The references set in the text (in the form of direct and indirect quotations and allusions) are analyzed in terms of their ethical, aesthetic, lyrical, and philosophical implications in the context of the title meanings of the tragic conflict. The text places the fatal development of Vera’s fate at the center of the narrative, firmly linking it with the figure of Gretchen (the motif of the innocent female soul, gripped by the article and perishing with the consciousness of her “sin”). Turgenev’s aim is to generalize human nature through this narrative. The writer’s attention is focused on the vicissitudes of the inner world of a woman who was previously excluded from the space of life and confined to a quiet and modest existence. The discovery of the action of great passions and their cognition leads to death. Vera, existing in strict moral conditioning, does not withstand the collision with the sensual element, in contrast to the character of Gretchen in Goethe’s “Faust”. On the other hand, Turgenev’s portrayal of Pavel Alexandrovich Turgenev in close proximity to Faust situates the character of the era’s Russian intellectual, who grapples with the dichotomy of duty and personal happiness, in anticipation of the novel “A Nest of Noblemen” (1859). The Faustian hero of the narrative, who initially embarks on a quest for the pinnacle of existence, which is revealed to him in the form of love, subsequently experiences disappointment and is tormented by guilt. This leads him to the idea of renouncing the individual for the sake of the universal, as if paraphrasing Faust’s exit to the outside in the tragedy’s finale.
Autism spectrum disorder and compliance with a removable orthodontic functional appliance: A case report
Authors: Lepi Juliza Md , Mustapha Nik Mukhriz Nik
Published: July 2024

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a multifaceted developmental disability that originates from a neurological disorder, leading to difficulties in the development of social interaction and communication skills. Consequently, this poses a challenge in the provision of oral health care. We report a case of a 13-year-old male with ASD who was concerned about “sticking out upper front teeth.” The patient presented with a Class II Division 1 incisor relationship on a Class 2 skeletal base with retrognathic mandible. The malocclusion was complicated by spacing in the upper and lower arches, proclined upper labial segment, increased overjet 12mm, overbite 90% complete to teeth, and incompetent lip with lower lip trap. The canine relationship was Class II ½ unit bilaterally, and the molar relationship was Class II ½ unit on the right and Class II ¾ unit on the left. The IOTN score was 5a for dental health and 9 for aesthetics. Growth modification to encourage mandibular growth, using a removable Twin Block appliance. The patient displayed excellent compliance with the appliance and effectively addressed his concerns while boosting his self-esteem. By understanding and addressing the unique needs of patients with ASD in orthodontic treatment, patient’s comfort and overall experience can be enhanced along with the likelihood of a successful treatment outcome. Customized treatment plans that respect sensory sensitivities and communication preferences pave the way for a more positive orthodontic journey for individuals with ASD, ultimately leading to enhanced dental well-being and bolstered self-assurance in one’s smile.
Three-dimensional evaluation of dentoalveolar and skeletal transverse changes between rapid maxillary expansion and slow maxillary expansion in growing subjects – A systematic review and meta-analysis
Authors: Selvaraj Abirami , George Ashwin Mathew , Arvind Prasanna
Published: July 2024

To systematically compare dentoalveolar and skeletal changes of RME and SME using same expanders with different activation protocols via 3D radiographs. Pubmed, Scopus, LILACS, Cochrane Library and Google Scholar were searched till April 2022. Randomized control trials (RCTs) were included. Statistical analysis performed with Tau2 test to evaluate heterogeneity in the included studies. Risk of bias (RoB) was evaluated using Cochrane RoB 2.0 tool. 5 RCTs were included. RoB revealed one study have low risk of bias and others have some concerns. Meta-analysis showed that both RME and SME displayed significant intermolar expansion (p>0.05) with RME showing significantly greater molar tipping. Random effects meta-analysis performed for maxillary intermolar distance at cuspal [SMD=0.23(95% CI=-0.50 to 0.95)] and alveolar level [SMD=0.76(95% CI=-0.57 to 2.09)] revealed no significant difference between groups with low reliability. RME showed significantly increased posterior skeletal nasal width [P value=0.007, SMD= 0.95(95% CI= 0.25 to 1.64)] with low heterogeneity (I2=24%) and good reliability. Greater molar tipping, determined using buccolingual inclination can be noted in RME. Increase in effective arch width and greater bodily translation was observed in SME. Utilizing the correct expansion protocol in the relevant clinical scenarios can prevent adverse periodontal complications during expansion and provide greater post-expansion stability.
Difference in acceptance and satisfaction perception on the use of Hawley and vacuum-formed retainers among post-orthodontic patients
Authors: Tarman Krisnawati Erry , Jazaldi Fadli , Latief Andina Alia , Soegiharto Benny Mulyono
Published: July 2024

Objectives:

It has been observed that using a retainer during the retention phase of orthodontic treatment can result in various patient perceptions; however, only limited research exists concerning it. Therefore, the present research studies and analyzes the differences in acceptance and satisfaction perception between patients who use two types of removable retainers: Hawley retainers (HRs) and vacuum-formed retainers (VFRs).

Material and Methods:

This research comprised 80 participants (n per group = 40). Eligible individuals who had finished treatment between 6 months and 5-years-prior and met the inclusion criteria were contacted to partake in this study. The participants were asked to complete a digital-based questionnaire consisting of seven questions. Each patient was asked the questions twice, once for maxillary and once for mandibular retainers. The visual analog scale was used to measure their responses. Blinding was implemented to minimize potential bias during data analysis.

Results:

Statistically significant differences were found in the speaking ability and positive comments received with maxillary retainer in place. Statistically significant differences were not found in the perception of adaptation, cleaning ability, negative comments received, and overall retainers’ acceptance and patients’ satisfaction with both retainers in place, as well as the speaking ability and positive comments received with the mandibular retainer. During the study, no harm was observed in any of the patients.

Conclusion:

VFRs cause less speech difficulty and elicit more positive comments on the maxilla than HRs. No significant differences were found between HRs and VFRs concerning the perception of adaptation, cleaning ability, negative comments received, and overall retainers’ acceptance and patients’ satisfaction with both retainers in place. Moreover, no differences were found between patients’ speaking ability and positive comments received with the mandibular retainer.
The effect of resection of gliomas of the primary motor and sensory cortex on functional recovery and seizure outcome: A 10-year retrospective study
Authors: Yazbeck Mohamad , Kassem Nour , Nassar Nabil , Farhat Hadi , Dabboucy Baraa , Tlaiss Yehya , Comair Youssef
Published: July 2024

Background:

Gliomas, the most common primary brain tumors, pose surgical challenges in eloquent cortex regions due to potential deficits affecting patients’ quality of life (QOL) and increased mortality risk. This study investigates motor and sensory recovery postresection of Rolandic cortex gliomas in 40 patients, alongside seizure outcomes and the efficacy of intraoperative techniques such as awake craniotomy.

Methods:

This was a 10-year monocentric retrospective study based on the experience of a neurosurgeon in the resection of Rolandic gliomas and its impact on 40 patients’ QOL in a period from 2011 to 2020. The primary outcomes were tumor recurrence and the efficacy of the surgery defined as survival status, seizure status, and sensory and motor neurological deficits. Data collection included demographic, tumor, and surgical outcome variables. The extent of resection (EOR) was classified as gross total resection (GTR) (EOR ≥95%) or subtotal resection (EOR <95%). Statistical analysis involved descriptive statistics and inferential tests for outcome comparisons.

Results:

Patients were aged an average of 42.3 ± 14 years and distributed between 72.5% of males and 27.5% of females. The most common presentation was seizures (65%). The tumor was located in the frontal lobe at 65%, the motor at 75%, and the top tumor pathology was oligodendroglioma (42.5%). The recurrence rate in the study was 20% (8 of 40), and the 1-year survival rate was 92.5%. After the resection, significant improvement was shown in Karnofsky’s performance status (P = 0.007), in normal daily activities (P = 0.001), in fine motor skills (P = 0.020), and work hobbies (P = 0.046). No statistically significant improvement was shown in seizures and deficit rates. Recurrence was not associated with the demographic characteristics, clinical presentation, tumor-related characteristics (location, area, side, and mutation), tumor resection, and adjuvant treatment (P > 0.05).

Conclusion:

GTR of Rolandic gliomas can be achieved with the use of meticulous stimulation mapping, and complete functional recovery is attainable despite common belief.
Awareness level of idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus among health-care providers
Authors: Algahtani Abdulhadi Yahya , Ashqar Alaa Adel , Munhish Fadi Abdu , Albattah Ghaida Abdullah , Imran Wafa Mohammad , Alshardan Mohammad M. , Almotairi Fawaz S.
Published: July 2024

Background:

Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) is a disease that primarily affects the geriatric population. It was first introduced by Adams et al. in 1965. A gradual decline in cognitive function, urinary incontinence, and gait disturbances characterizes the disease. This condition is believed to be underdiagnosed, and awareness of such pathology is vital, as the treatment is very effective and can reverse the symptoms.

Methods:

This questionnaire-based cross-sectional study aimed to assess awareness levels regarding iNPH among non-neuroscience healthcare providers in Saudi Arabia.

Results:

A total of 269 healthcare providers participated in this study, with data collected through an online questionnaire. About 80.6% of the participants had heard of the disease, while 56.5% were aware of the disease symptomology. About 50% of physicians did not encounter iNPH patients in clinical practice. Previous clinical exposure to iNPH patients correlates significantly with an awareness of disease symptoms, investigation, treatment modalities, and outcome. Clinical experience positively impacts physicians’ awareness as it correlates with a better understanding of diagnostic methods and disease outcomes.

Conclusion:

The study highlights the need for targeted educational interventions, especially among family physicians and general practitioners with no previous experience with iNPH patients, as well as interdisciplinary collaboration to address gaps in awareness and enhance early diagnosis of iNPH patients.

Результаты проведённых расчётов показали, что динамика изменения среднепластовой температуры, а также показатели добычи нефти зависят от геолого-физических характеристик нефтяной залежи. В соответствии с результатами проведённых расчётов в зависимости от геолого-физических характеристик залежи и вязкости нефти установлены критерии необходимости применения электронагревателей при инициировании внутрипластового горения.

CMG’s STARS simulator was used to forecast heavy oil production from reservoirs with various characteristics by in-situ combustion which is initiated by air injection into the reservoir. The discussed reservoir characteristics include the reservoir depth, the initial reservoir pressure, the initial reservoir temperature, the initial in-situ oil viscosity. Simulation results show that reservoir characteristics affect the average temperature time history, as well as oil production data. Based on the simulation results, criteria for applying electric heaters during in-situ combustion initiation were identified in terms of various reservoir characteristics and oil viscosities.

Основную долю добычи нефти по ПАО «Татнефть» обеспечивают крупные достаточно истощенные месторождения с выработанностью запасов нефти более 80 % и обводненностью на уровне 90%. Нефтедобывающие предприятия компании «Татнефть», осуществляющие длительное время (на протяжении нескольких десятков лет) разработку нефтяных месторождений Татарстана, большую часть запасов нефти оставляют неразведанными. Это означает, что развитие нефтедобывающего комплекса не может быть обеспечено на длительное время ввиду ограниченности доли активных запасов нефти в общей структуре. За последнее десятилетие за счет получения дополнительной добычи нефти от применения новых технологий компания смогла сохранить оптимальные уровни добычи. Для эффективной выработки остаточных запасов на истощенных месторождениях авторы поставили задачу выбора наиболее оптимальной системы разработки с точки зрения достижения максимального КИН и наиболее полной выработки остаточных запасов путем разбуривания скважинами с горизонтальным окончанием основного базисного нефтеносного объекта терригенного девона, в котором содержится 62,1 % балансовых запасов категории А+В+С +С

The bulk of PJSC TATNEFT’s crude oil output comes from large mature fields with 80% reserve depletion and 90% water cut. TATNEFT’s oil production divisions have been operating oil fields in Tatarstan for several decades; however, a large amount of reserves still remain undiscovered. This prevents a long-term growth of oil sector due to limited active reserves. Over the past decade, TATNEFT was able to maintain sustainable oil production due to incremental ultimate recovery from employing new technologies. The authors tried to find the best development strategy for mature fields with the purpose of attaining the highest possible oil recovery factor and maximum production of residual reserves. This can be attained by drilling horizontal wells in a primary terrigenous productive formation of the Devonian age containing 62.1% of A+B+C +C in-place reserves.

Проанализированы дефекты на кривой записи минифрака, наиболее часто встречающиеся при производстве гидроразрыва пласта (ГРП) на нефтяных месторождениях Татарстана. К ним относятся: локальный максимум на кривой спада давления, отсутствие смыкания трещины, отсутствие гидравлических ударов, высокие значения и выположенность всей кривой спада устьевого давления. Указаны причины выявленных дефектов и приведены промысловые примеры. Рекомендовано перед проведением основного ГРП в сланцевых отложениях всегда проводить операции по обеспечению приемистости (breakdown). Указанные работы следует проводить до тех пор, пока на кривых минифрака не появится четкий гидравлический удар и четкий ISIP. В противном случае процесс почти со 100 %-ной вероятностью завершится СТОПом

In the Republic of Tatarstan, minifrac pressure curves have some commonly occurring defects, including local humps in the pressure decline curves, absence of hydraulic hammer, flatness and high values of surface pressure decline curves. Root causes for these defects have been identified and illustrated by case studies. It is recommended to carry out breakdown tests before main hydrofrac treatment in shale formations until conspicuous hydraulic hammer and ISIP are recorded in minifrac pressure curves, otherwise there is no other alternative but screenout.

Масштабное применение технологий горизонтального бурения при вводе в разработку месторождений с многопластовыми залежами нефти и при доразработке старых месторождений требует научного обоснования и поиска оптимальных условий строительства и эксплуатации систем разработки, основанных на применении скважин с горизонтальным окончанием (СГО). В связи с этим, дальнейший поиск оптимальных схем расположения УГС СГО с целью повышения эффективности выработки запасов нефти становится актуальной проблемой. В качестве вычислительных экспериментов были рассмотрены следующие сценарии: а) 1 сценарий - проектирование разработки залежи по девятиточечной системе вертикальными скважинами (ВС) с закачкой воды в центральную ВС, эксплуатирующими одновременно все три пласта с применением оборудования ОРД и ОРЗ; б) 2 сценарий - разработка залежи наклонно-направленными скважинами (ННС), эксплуатирующими все три пласта единым фильтром и закачкой в наклонную скважину; в) 3 сценарий - разработка залежи СГО с УГС, эксплуатирующими каждый пласт отдельно с использованием ОРД и закачка воды в СГО с использованием оборудования ОРЗ. Результаты компьютерного проектирования показали сравнительно низкую эффективность разработки нескольких пластов многопластового объекта единым фильтром, при которой не обеспечивается эффективный охват всех продуктивных пластов и тем самым создаются предпосылки к возникновению значительных недренируемых запасов в зонах не подвергнутых эффективной выработкой. Применение оборудования ОРЗ в СГО позволяет регулировать направления линий нагнетания для более эффективной системы заводнения, что приводит к изменению кинематики потоков и способствует заметному увеличению КИН

Large-scale application of horizontal drilling while bringing into production multi-layered oil fields and further development of mature fields requires scientific substantiation and searching for optimal conditions for construction and operation of development systems with horizontal wells. Consequently, continuing search for optimal placement of horizontal wells aimed at improving oil reserves depletion becomes urgent. Computer models considered the following three scenarios: 1) nine-spot waterflood pattern involving water injection into a central vertical well, all wells being equipped with dual completion systems for simultaneous operation of all three layers; 2) injection of water into a directional well and simultaneous production through directional wells; 3) horizontal wells producing from each layer individually using dual completion system for production and injection of water into horizontal wells provided with dual completion systems for injection. According to the results, simultaneous operation of several layers of a multi-layered target is inefficient due to poor reservoir sweep which results in leaving undrained reserves in unswept zones.

В статье анализируются различные варианты повышения промысловой эффективности технологии циклического заводнения терригенных коллекторов. Показано, что продолжительность положительного эффекта от применения этой технологии зависит от времени и постепенно снижается в связи с необратимым падением пластового давления, вызванного недокомпенсацией отбора закачкой. Предлагается вариант контроля за процессом смыкания флюидопроводящих каналов в продуктивном пласте с помощью межскважинной сейсмотомографии с последующей инициацией в пласте релаксационных процессов с помощью технологии дилатационно-волнового воздействия с целью образования в нем вторичных флюидопроводящих каналов. Причем рекомендуется выбирать очаговые скважины в местах расположения флексур и периклиналий. Практическое опробование предложенной технологии оптимизации циклического заводнения на одной из площадей Ромашкинского месторождения подтвердило ее промысловую эффективность.

The paper analyses various possibilities for enhancing the performance of cyclic waterflooding in terrigenous reservoirs. It has been shown that sustainability of beneficial technological effects deteriorates gradually due to irreversible reservoir pressure depletion resulting from inadequate voidage replacement ratios. A solution to controlling the closure of fluid-conductive channels in the productive reservoir is proposed. This implies application of cross-well seismic tomography followed by relaxation processes induced in situ using dilatation-wave technique to create secondary fluid-conductive channels in the productive reservoir. It is recommended that local wells be selected within flexural folds and periclines. Field tests of the proposed waterflood optimization technology at the Romashkinskoye oil field have proven its efficiency.

Цементный камень, обеспечивающий герметичность крепи скважины, является наиболее слабым звеном и может легко разрушаться под воздействием нагрузок, каковыми являются динамические нагрузки, высокие перепады давления, передающиеся на цементный камень при выполнении различных технологических операций. Самые большие нагрузки цементное кольцо испытывает при перфорации и гидроразрыве пласта. Одним из главных причин разрушения цементного камня является плохая деформация и низкая удароустойчивость. В статье рассматривается применение фиброармирования как способа повышения удароустойчивости цементного камня, путем определения удельной ударной вязкости разрушения армированных образцов цементного камня, полученных из тампонажного портландцемента с различными добавками в виде фибр. Полученные результаты показывают, что применение фиброармирования тампонажных растворов положительно влияют на удароустойчивость цементного камня.

Cement stone, that provides tight lining of the well is the weakest part and can easily collapse under the enforcements, such as major dynamic loads, high pressure drops etc. And the biggest pressure for a cement stone is the sheath fracturing and perforations. One of the main reasons for the destruction of cement stone is bad distortion and low impact resistance. The article discusses the use of fiber reinforcement as a way to improve the impact resistance of a cement stone to dynamic loads and various sort of pressure. The results show that the use of cement slurries combined with fiber materials highly increases the impact resistance of a cement stone.
