Tackling the Learning Curve of Medical Terminology: Experience of a Medical Student with a Background in Classical Languages
Authors: Khamar Jigish
Published: June 2023

Upon entering medical school, many students encounter a steep learning curve when handling the vast and intricate vocabulary that healthcare workers use daily. Since the basis of medical terminology has developed from the roots of classical languages, it would theoretically be helpful to provide medical students with a foundational knowledge of Latin and Greek. My experience with learning classical languages before entering medical school has allowed me to have a formulaic approach when tackling unfamiliar medical terminology. By breaking up medical terms like transsphenoidal hypophysectomy into their respective roots, I can create a quick definition for myself before being given any formal teaching on the matter. The primary advantage of this learning style is that it reduces the burden of memorization on the student. The lectures from medical school help refine the preliminary definitions, which makes memorization much easier since students already have a basic framework for each new term encountered. However, certain considerations need to be kept in mind when utilizing the classical approach to understanding medical terminology. For example, the Latin and Greek roots cannot define eponyms like Wilson’s disease, named after the person who discovered the disease, or provide information on medications as their names have non-classical origins. Overall from my experience, the benefits of the formulaic approach make it a valuable tool during the initial years of medical school when the content is taught in a classroom setting and it can provide the foundation for an easier transition into the clinical environment.
Peroneal Nerve Injury due to Hip Surgery Located at the Knee Level: A Case Report
Authors: Mićić Aleksa , Radojević Stefan , Rasulić Lukas
Published: June 2023

Background: A common peroneal nerve (CPN) injury located at the knee level, occurring as a consequence of hip surgery is described in the literature. However, there are only a few papers focusing on their surgical management, while there are no thoroughly analyzed cases following open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) of the acetabular fracture. This paper aimed to describe such a case and discuss current trends in the surgical management of these patients.
Case: A 32-year-old woman was admitted to our department due to left-sided CPN palsy. The patient was injured in a traffic accident eight months earlier, followed by left hip dislocation and acetabular fracture. Following the acetabular fracture ORIF, a CPN palsy developed. The electromyoneurography (EMNG) and ultrasound (US) indicated a nerve lesion at the knee level. The surgical treatment included external neurolysis, decompression, and complete nerve deliberation, with the preservation of all nerve branches. The patient reported immediate relief and completely recovered 8 months following the surgery (Medical Research Council (MRC) grade = 5, Visual Analogous Scale (VAS) = 0).
Conclusion: The cause of CPN palsy following hip surgery may not always be located in the hip region. A detailed anamnesis, physical examination, and diagnostic evaluation are necessary for the proper surgical management of these patients. In addition to the EMNG, the US should be essential in preoperative planning and choosing the most effective surgical strategy.
PECULIARITIES OF FORMATION OF THE CHEMICAL COMPOSITION OF CAUCASIAN GLACIER-FED RIVERS DURING INTENSIVE DEGRADATION OF GLACIERS

Published: June 2023

The concentration of heavy metals (Cr, Ni, Mo, Mn, Pb, Zn, Ag, Cu, Cd, Co, Al, Fe, V) in one of the most powerful glaciation sites in the Caucasus (Mount Elbrus) since the mid-20th century is investigated. To compare the concentrations of heavy metals in the sources of the Baksan River with those in the Garabashi glacier, a stationary point at a level of 4000 m was chosen, where observations of the glacier mass balance are carried out. The number of pit samples depended on the snow accumulation and varied from 7-8 to 18-20 in accordance with the depth of the seasonal snow layer. The concentrations of heavy metals in the ice, snow, and river water samples were determined during the period from 1978 to 2010 at High-mountain Geophysical Institute by the emission spectral analysis. The analysis of samples from 2018-2021 was performed by the atomic absorption method on an MGA-915 spectrometer. Among all categories of the samples taken on the Elbrus slope, the least impurities were found in pure ice on the tongue of the glacier: it contains three times less impurities of Ag, Ni, Mo, Pb: 0.014, 1.15, 0.18, 0.83 µg/L, respectively. In some samples, the metal content is below the detection limit. The concentrations of heavy metals in the seasonal snow pack and river water in the Elbrus region are one-two orders of magnitude lower than maximum permissible concentrations for sanitary water bodies. For the Baksan River basin and the Elbrus glaciation region, there is a slight decrease in the concentrations of heavy metals from the end of the 20th century until the present, with intensive degradation of glaciers.
ON THE MECHANISM OF A DRAMATIC SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURE DROP IN THE NORTHWEST BLACK SEA AND OFF THE CRIMEAN COAST
Authors:   Institute of Natural and Technical Systems, POLONSKII A.B. ,   Sevastopol State University, SEREBRENNIKOV A.N. ,   Institute of Natural and Technical Systems,   Sevastopol State University
Published: June 2023

An analysis of high-resolution satellite data on sea surface temperature (SST) and surface wind for 2008-2021 confirmed that the areas of a dramatic SST drop exceeding several degrees per day regularly occur in the northwestern Black Sea and off the western coast of Crimea. These areas are located not only in coastal upwelling zones. Extensive areas of this type are found in the open water areas in the northwestern part of the sea and in the vicinity of the western large-scale cyclonic gyre. A reason for the formation of such areas during the period of the stable vertical thermal stratification in the upper layer is the strengthening of wind in the atmospheric surface layer and the intensification of cyclonic vorticity. This leads to the generation of upward motions, additional turbulent mixing in the upper sea layer, and, as a consequence, the SST drop within a few days after the passage of the cyclone over the sea. This mechanism is especially effective in the case of slowly moving cyclones in the presence of a blocking or a high-pressure ridge northeast of the Black Sea region.

Authors: López Andrés
Published: June 2023

En el presente artículo me propongo como objetivo presentar brevemente una serie de reflexiones académicas suscitadas por el problema de la intersección investigador-sujeto en los estudios de la comunicación para el desarrollo y el cambio social. Con ello pretendo convertir lo aquí enunciado en un recurso de uso en el aula de clase y provocar curiosidad por la investigación, el arte, la moda y la creación. También, al entender que todo proceso de diseño requiere de una estricta disciplina investigativa, este documento busca redefinir lo que los estudiantes suelen concebir por investigación. De forma no tan académica y más bien “informalmente”, en este texto tomo el escenario del Museo Nacional en Bogotá, prisión de la nación durante los años 1800, para explicar parte de la teoría del panóptico de Foucault en el marco de la asignatura Taller Experimental, de la Corporación Unificada de Educación Superior (cun), Regional Bogotá. El uso de un lenguaje más coloquial y sencillo es el método para introducir el concepto planteado por Foucault y posteriormente presentar un taller para encender debates en torno a la colonialidad, la moda y la creación de una propuesta textil digital.

Live-streaming selling strategies for competitive firms
Authors: Du Quan , Chen Zhixin , Wu Jie , Ji Xiang ,   School of Management, University of Science and Technology of China, Hefei 230026, China
Published: June 2023

The booming live-streaming commerce has significantly changed the traditional e-commerce model, thus attracting much attention from both industry and academia. In recent years, an increasing number of scholars have applied analytical models to explore live-streaming strategies for firms in different scenarios. However, the previous literature mainly considers monopolists, while in the real world, competition is not rare. To fill this gap between the literature and practical observations, this paper applies a game theoretical model to study live-streaming adoption and pricing strategy for firms under competitive environments. The results show that, for competitive firms, the equilibrium strategy depends on the relation between the commission rate and the intensity of the market expansion effect. Additionally, compared to the case in which no firm adopts live-streaming, competitive firms do not always benefit from the adoption of live-streaming selling. The paper also shows that competition plays a negative role in inducing a firm to adopt live-streaming.
Produção, caracterização e aplicação do extrato bruto de L. crinitus na descoloração in vitro do corante vermelho congo.
Authors:   , Alice de Melo Pinheiro Maria
Published: June 2023

O descarte inadequado de substâncias tóxicas, como é o caso dos corantes,é um problema ambiental que tem motivado o desenvolvimento de tecnologias capazes de minimizar ou eliminar a toxicidade dessas substâncias, para que sejam descartadas no meio ambiente sem causar danos aos ecossistemas e à saúde humana. O uso de microrganismos e/ou enzimas de origem microbiana tem despertado interesse para a remoção desses corantes dos efluentes têxteis. Dentre os microrganismos utilizados na biorremediação, os basidiomicetos destacam-se por produzir um mecanismo ligninolítico capaz de degradar compostos xenobióticos recalcitrantes. Uma importante enzima do complexo ligninolítico produzida por esses fungos é a lacase, que devido ao alto potencial de degradação de moléculas poluentes tem sido chamada de enzima “ecofriendly”. Neste trabalho, estudou-se o potencial do fungo L. crinitus em produzir um complexo enzimático, contendo a enzima lacase, em fermentação em estado sólido (FES) utilizando a vagem de amendoim como substrato. Avaliou-se o efeito de diferentes níveis de umidade (b.u.) e da adição de óleo de soja sobre a produção da lacase utilizando um planejamento fatorial 22. A cinética de produção da lacase foi avaliada a 28°C, durante 30 dias, com a umidade do substrato ajustada para 70% (b.u.) e com adição de 2% de óleo de soja (m:v). O extrato enzimático bruto obtido no pico de produção foi caracterizado e utilizado para descoloração in vitro do corante Vermelho Congo. Na descoloração do corante, avaliou-se o efeito de concentrações crescentes do corante e da presença de CuSO4, em um planejamento fatorial 22, após 24h de incubação.O pico de produção de lacase foi observado aos 6 dias de incubação. A lacase presente no extrato bruto de L. crinitus apresentou temperatura e pH ótimos de 50°C e 3,0, respectivamente. A enzima mostrou-se estável em todas as temperaturas avaliadas. A descoloração do corante Vermelho Congo foi influenciada pela adição de CuSO4. Esses resultados demonstram o potencial do extrato bruto de L. crinitus de degradar o corante azoico estudado.

This study aims to assess the spatial-temporal land use changes around Jatibarang Reservoir in Semarang City, Indonesia City from 2012 to 2022, utilizing Google Earth data. The Jatibarang Reservoir and its surrounding areas have been subject to rapid urbanization and land use transformations in recent years, leading to significant environmental and socio-economic implications. The classification accuracy of seven land use categories was validated, demonstrating a high level of accuracy. The analysis reveals a dominance of agricultural land use, with notable shifts observed in forest cover, settlements, and reservoir areas. Population growth, economic development, and policy interventions are identified as the main drivers behind these land use changes. The spatial analysis using Nearest Neighbor Analysis (NNA) indicates a scattered distribution pattern of land use changes, primarily concentrated in the western part of the reservoir area. These land use changes have significant social, economic, and environmental implications, impacting the sustainability of the reservoir and surrounding areas. The study highlights the need for improved data quality, rigorous validation methods, and spatial modeling approaches in future research. By understanding the dynamics of land use changes and their implications, policymakers and stakeholders can make informed decisions for sustainable land management and environmental conservation in similar contexts.

Authors: Kim Bo-Ram , Kim Jung-Won
Published: June 2023

As the educational environment and characteristics of learners are rapidly changing due to social changes, flip-learning is emphasized as a way to improve the quality and effectiveness of education with new educational methods. In beauty education research, he also argued that flip-learning classes need to actively participate in classes and understand their learning experiences. In response, this study constructed burling education based on flip-learning class design, and applied burling classes to a total of 30 students for a total of 15 weeks from July 1 to October 30, 2022. After application, online and self-written questionnaires were analyzed using the SPSS 26.0 statistical program, and independent sample t-test was conducted to examine the differences between barber educators and other educators. As a result, learning motivation, learning immersion, and education satisfaction showed the highest learning motivation with 4.60 points in both usefulness and feedback, and bar education showed higher average than other educators in all questions of learning immersion. Education satisfaction was high, with 4.80 points for feedback from other educators, 4.77 points for major-related education, and 4.77 points for problem solving. The average of all items related to the satisfaction level of the barber education lecture is 4.60 points or higher, and the satisfaction level of the barber education lecture is very high. Verbal education based on flip learning was judged to have improved learners' learning through watching video lectures, motivation during classes, feedback afterwards, and repeated viewing in advance compared to general barber education. Following the application of burling education, the difference in learner motivation, learning immersion, and educational satisfaction between barber educators and other educators showed that barber educators were higher than other educators. Through this study, we were able to improve learners' learning by applying flip-learning-based burbling education. However, it is regrettable that the applicants could not be diversified, and it is judged that problems concerning the method of application of education for field workers should be supplemented.
K-means clustering for optimization of spare parts delivery
Authors: Ramgude Kaushik D , Rajhans N.R.
Published: June 2023

Transhipment is an important logistics strategy that helps to improve supply chain efficiency and reduce transportation costs. It enables cargo to be transported to multiple destinations using different modes of transportation, such as ships, trains, trucks, and planes. This can help to reduce the overall transportation time and cost, as well as improve inventory management and distribution. In addition to its use in logistics and transportation, transhipment can also be used in other industries such as manufacturing, where it can be used to transfer raw materials or finished products between different facilities or production lines. This research paper examines the role of transhipment in improving the efficiency of spare part delivery systems to the PMPML depots from central workshop Swargate. PMPML has 12 depots in total (including central workshop). In many industries, the supply chain for spare parts is complex, with multiple suppliers, warehouses, and service centres involved. Transhipment, or the transfer of inventory between locations, can help to reduce lead times and improve inventory availability. In this paper, we analyze the impact of transhipment on key performance metrics such as order fulfilment, inventory turnover, and transportation costs. We also discuss the challenges associated with implementing transhipment in spare part delivery systems, including coordination between different parties, data sharing, and system integration.

Patients were divided into two groups, a B-TUERP group of 49 patients and a second group of 52 patients classed as B-TUERP-M. The perioperative outcomes followed up at 1, 3 and 6 months after surgery were evaluated. Results: There were no significant differences in the preoperative parameters of the two groups. Comparisons between the two groups showed a shorter operative time (63.94 ± 12.01 vs 77.77 ± 11.80 min, p-value 0.000), more resected prostate tissue (65.73 ± 14.67 vs 60.73 ± 5.45 gm, p-value 0.027) and a higher post-operative hematocrit level (35.16 ± 3.97 vs 33.18 ± 3.22%, p-value 0.007) in the patients who underwent B-TUERP with morcellation. At 6 months after the procedure, better results were found in patients who had undergone B-TUERP-M regarding urine flow rate (26.33 ± 5.33 vs 20.66 ± 5.08 ml/sec, p-value 0.000), post-void residual urine volume (24.19 ± 10.93 vs 36.04 ± 16.90 ml, p-value 0.000), post-operative PSA (0.72 ± 0.43 vs 1.22 ± 0.54 mg/ml, p-value 0.000) and International Prostate Symptom Scores (5.01 ± 1.36 vs 5.71 ± 1.33, p-value 0.001). Conclusion: Better outcomes occurred following B-TUERP with morcellation with regard to operative time, resection weight of prostatic adenoma, post-operative urine flow rate, Post-void residual urine volume, PSA and International Prostate Symptom Score than in patients treated with B-TUERP without morcellation.

Objective: Radical cystectomy (RC) is standard treatment for bladder cancer. Removal of the bladder requires reconstruction of the lower urinary tract, a procedure that also has impact on the patient’s quality of life (QoL). In Thailand, information pertinent to the level of the quality of life between ileal conduit and orthotopic neobladder is still limited. The objectives of this study are to evaluate the quality of life (primary outcome) and oncologic outcome (secondary outcome) of patients who underwent an Ileal Conduit (IC) or Orthotopic Neobladder (NB) using FACT-BL, a bladder-cancer-specific questionnaire. Materials and Methods: One hundred and forty six patients underwent radical cystectomy and urinary diversion for bladder cancer from 2009 to 2019 at our institution. Out of these, 61 (42%) patients were asked to participate in this study. All 61, who were divided into two groups, 34 IC and 27 NB, completed the ques- tionnaire, a survey response rate of 100%. Mean follow-up was 7 years 3 months. Results: There were no statistically significant differences in ll FACT-G categories (PWB, SWB, EWB and FWB) between the two groups. Patients with neobladder had reported that they urinated more frequently than usual. Mean interest in sex was 49% in all patients and capability of maintaining an erection was 23%. The mean total values of FACT-BL in IC and NB patients were 128.51 ± 15.51 and 126.70 ± 17.35, showing no significant difference. Conclusion: Prinary diversion type does not appear to be associated with differential post-operative QoL and sexual satisfaction. There is a possibility that patients with neobladder urinate more frequently than before surgery but this did not reach statistical significance.
Transfer function approaches for SEEG brain electrode interface applied to tissue classification

Published: June 2023

This paper is about transfer function approaches for brain-electrode interface modelling in the context of StereoElectroEncephaloGraphy, and their possible use in tissue classification (between grey and white matter). Monopolar and bipolar configurations are first reviewed, giving rise to possible nonparametric and parametric identification methods, as well as related possible classification results (for identical tissues and distinct tissues at measurement points, respectively). A method combining both approaches is then proposed, so as to end up with a classification at each measurement point in any case. The proposed methodology is implemented with clinical data collected from a set of epileptic patients, confirming its interest by providing more than 70% of accuracy in the obtained results.
Analysis of Industrial Sensor Data Using Statistical and Regression Methods
Authors: Ferencz Katalin , Domokos József , Kovács Levente
Published: June 2023

Today's industrial landscape is primarily driven by rapid and effective data processing and evaluation. Consequently, industries should devote considerable attention and resources towards real-time examination of the large data sets acquired, enabling timely extraction of vital information for outlier detection, fake data identification, and predictive analysis to mitigate unforeseen expenses. This rigorous process of data analysis necessitates the employment of a diverse set of algorithms that align with the specific objectives, spanning a wide spectrum of potential solutions. In this manuscript, we demonstrate how Apache Spark's unified engine can be harnessed for conducting statistical analysis of time series data, thereby expediting industrial data analysis processes. Furthermore, we examine and implement both linear and random forest regression models within the context of the demonstrated use case.
WATER DISPOSAL IN THE ARCTIC REGION OF RUSSIA: OVERVIEW OF CURRENT ISSUES
Authors:   Institute for Regional Economic Studies Russian Academy of Sciences, Dregulo Andrey M.
Published: June 2023

The problem of functioning of wastewater disposal systems in the Arctic regions of Russia is largely due to the prolonged economic depression of the past years. The dynamics of investments in fixed assets in recent years has significantly decreased for most of the Arctic regions, and in some cases does not reach the indicators of 2005. Tariffs for wastewater disposal in the subjects of the Russian Arctic may differ 2–4 times. In some rural settlements, sewage treatment plants are degraded by 70– 100%, and the population is charged according to the tariff for low-quality sanitation services. Arctic ecosystems are characterized by a reduced intensity of biological processes. Therefore, wastewater entering surface reservoirs without treatment provokes bacterial and chemical contamination of biological resources and diseases of the population. It is required to attract significant (targeted) investments to modernize the sanitation infrastructure in the Arctic region within the framework of federal targeted programs for the socio-economic development of the Arctic zone.

As the use of smartphones becomes increasingly common in our daily lives, this study focuses on the accent-related learning problems and needs of Japanese learners in Taiwan, and develops an accent learning support system. Based on the blended learning style of in-class and after-class autonomous learning, the study examines the effectiveness of the proposed system in assisting accent learning. After one semester of experimentation, students’ learning records were analyzed and a questionnaire was administered, revealing a statistically significant difference in scores between pre- and post-learning of accent. Furthermore, three major factors were extracted through factor analysis. Finally, text-mining was employed to analyze students’ written feedback, revealing that students’ attitudes toward learning Japanese accent differed based on their gender and length of learning. The study also demonstrated that students were highly satisfied with the proposed blended learning style.
