Authors: Lornah Irene Ayako
Published: January 2024

Deaf students may not have exposure to rich emotional vocabulary in their first language, Kenyan sign language, which may result in difficulty in identifying their own and others’ emotions, thus hinder their social interactions and academic success. The main aim of this study was to assess teachers’ competencies in supporting the development of emotional intelligence in deaf students in secondary schools in North Eastern, Kenya. The study embraced a quantitative descriptive design approach and was based on the foundation of Bar-On model. The target population were teachers of secondary schools for the deaf in North-Eastern, Kenya. A sample size of 17 participants was selected through census sampling. Data was collected through a structured questionnaire with reliability coefficient 0.767 and analyzed descriptively. Findings revealed that the levels of participants’ competence in development of emotional intelligence of deaf students was moderate (M=3.45 and SD=0.275). Participants recorded high levels (M=4.35 and SD=0.493) of competencies in creating a supportive classroom environment that allows students to express their emotions. However, it came out that participants had low levels (M=1.41 and SD=0.712) of competencies in integrating activities on emotional intelligence into the curriculum. The paper recommends that teachers for deaf students be regularly provided with adequate training on skills and competencies to effectively support the development of emotional intelligence of their learners.

Published: January 2024

The research aims to substantiate the essence and structure of the notion of a student’s personal psychological well-being in relation to future teachers in the process of practice. The paper analyzes the notion of “personal psychological well-being” and substantiates the author’s definition of the notion of “a student’s personal psychological well-being in the process of teaching practice”, which is an integral and dynamic characteristic of an individual, reflecting the internal psychological state of each student in the process of teaching practice, revealing a student’s self-perception of their own professional achievements as the basis of their social and professional self-determination. A system of criteria and their detailed indicators for the manifestation of personal psychological well-being among teacher students in the process of teaching practice (the cognitive criterion, the emotional criterion, the personal criterion) is proposed. The methodology of a pilot study is described and the results of such a study involving undergraduate students are analyzed. The scientific novelty of the research lies in the following: a new direction for the development of models, content and methodological support for students’ teaching practice is substantiated from the standpoint of changes in their psychological well-being. As a result of the research, it was confirmed that the inclusion of the context of reflective-innovative activity in the content of practice, the activation of self-analysis and self-development mechanisms in students in the process of practical training contribute to the normalization of psychological well-being among teacher students, increasing the sense of confidence in the correctness of their professional actions and personal self-realization.

Published: January 2024

To solve scientific, technological and environmental problems in the field of road transport, it is necessary to develop new mathematical models. At this stage of development of internal combustion engines and their parts, it is necessary to model complex hydrodynamic technologies. This necessities revealing different forms of liquid and gas flows with arbitrary initial and boundary conditions for the region under consideration.The work is devoted to modelling a turbulent flow over a plate located in a cylinder. Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations were used as a mathematical model of the flow. Turbulent viscosity was calculated using the one-equation Spalart-Allmaras turbulence model. To solve the system of hydrodynamic equations, the finite difference method was used. A numerical method for calculating plane flows of viscous gas in a cylinder using turbulence models is presented. Suitable options were selected based on physical assumptions used to develop the models.Recommendations have been developed on the possibility of using the considered turbulence models.

Combined Influence of Cyclic Loads and Corrosion on the Technical Condition of Metal Structures of Metro Escalators
Authors: Dyatlov V. N. , Orlov S. V. , Popov V. A.
Published: January 2024

This article examines the influence of loads, conventionally divided into static and cyclic ones, and of corrosion acting together on the structural elements of metal structures of metro escalators. The dynamics of corrosion processes are determined by the environment, the degree of influence of which, depending on the geographical location and based on seasonality, can vary from non-aggressive to highly aggressive. This, with simultaneous occurrence of deformations (a stressed state is created in the structure), can lead to fatigue failures. The state of the metal structure of the escalator in this case is the most important element, since the failure of almost any of its structural elements means a complete stop of the escalator.The prerequisites for corrosion fatigue for low carbon steels, as the main material in manufacture of metal structures for metro escalators, are also considered.The main objective of the study is to search for criteria for creating an experimental and computational method for determining the residual life of metal structures of metro escalators with a high degree of reliability. Identification and analysis of criteria for assessing the condition of metal structures was carried out by the authors using experimental research and survey methods, that resulted in a conclusion that the degree of degradation of the main characteristics and properties of metal structure elements is determined not only by the number of loading cycles, but also by the duration of exposure to an aggressive environment.
Comparison of Train Traffic Parameters for Various Virtual Coupling Use Cases
Authors: Rozenberg E. N. , Ozerov A. V. , Kuznetsov V. I. , Tikhonov S. S.
Published: January 2024

New principles of train separation allowing for capacity increase are in high demand under the conditions of infrastructure constraints, considering also ever-growing freight turnover at the Eastern segment of railway network.Currently, the most promising option is train separation based on virtual coupling technology, which, according to calculations, can provide an increase in carrying and transit capacity of up to 20 % compared to the classical technology of rigid coupling. At the same time, there are no methods for determining the use cases for applying the virtual coupling technology for specific sections of the railway supported by mathematical calculations.The article discusses five use cases for virtual coupling for sections with speed limits and presents graphical estimates of capacity for various speeds and lengths of sections with speed limit. It is concluded that virtual train coupling is advantageous for capacity increase on sections with infrastructure constraints, and further research is needed to justify the practical methods of its application.
Methodology for Assessing Shortened ILS LOC and GP Critical Areas: an Example of Gorno-Altaisk Aerodrome
Authors: Rubtsov E. A. , Kudryakov S. A. , Dalinger Ia. M.
Published: January 2024

Based on the analysis of recommendations of the International Civil Aviation Organization on a reasonable reduction in sizes of ILS critical areas and identification of shortcomings of the existing requirements of the Russian Federal Aviation Regulations for critical areas of ILS localiser and glide path (glide slope), a procedure has been developed that allows assessment localiser and glide slope bends for shortened critical areas. The assessment comprises the influence of different reflecting objects situated on operation area of the aerodrome, as well as of aerodrome environs on the operation of the ILS localiser and glide path.Reflecting objects can be approximated by models of a wall (that simulates reflections from buildings, bridges, fences), of a cylinder (that simulates reflections from factory pipes, tanks, containers, aircraft fuselages) and of a hemispherical diffuse reflector (simulates reflection from elevated terrain).The procedure was tested for Gorno-Altaisk aerodrome, and aproposal was developed to reduce the critical area of the localiser, which will expand the apron by 35 m, eliminate problems with imposed speed limits and blocking movement of aircraft on the taxiway. Also, the probability of service failure will decrease by 3…11 times, and the runway occupancy time will decrease by 12,5…26 % compared to existing features.
Legal Regulation of Military Transport Obligation in the Russian Federation
Authors: Kholikov I. V.
Published: January 2024

The article examines the essence, characteristics of normative legal regulation and problematic aspects of implementation of military transport obligation in the Russian Federation. The author notes that in difficult modern conditions, fulfilment by citizens and organisations of their constitutional responsibilities to ensure the defence of the country and the security of the state is an important area of preserving the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Russia. The social, historical and legal roots of military transport obligation are described. It has been studied that in Russia, the legal acts at the federal level have established necessary regulatory and legal requirements, characterised by completeness, accessibility for acquaintance and general elaboration of regulated issues. Military transport obligation in the country has been established to provide state armed forces with vehicles during the period of mobilisation and during wartime. The paper substantiates that military transport obligation appears to be an important structural and functional construct in the material, technical and regulatory support of the country’s defence capability and state security. The author has formulated specific proposals for improving the current state legal regulation of the issue under consideration, to increase the level of mobilisation readiness of vehicles and ensure better performance of military transport obligation.
The role of a major social media platform on students’ academic performance: Perception versus reality
Authors: Hill Kendall , Xie Jianling , Gallo Katarzyna , Wood Shayna , Parlow Molly , Hynes Julianna , Stewart Samuel
Published: January 2024

The social media landscape is constantly evolving; new platforms emerge, and existing platforms change their functionality. While a robust body of literature exists on the influences of social media on students’ academic outcomes, most studies have failed to differentiate between specific social media platforms. Further, most research in this field focuses on how one variable (e.g., time spent on social media per day) relates to students’ GPA, giving an incomplete picture of how social media relate to student outcomes. The current study aimed to (a) investigate the intricate relationship between social media usage, time spent on schoolwork, and academic performance in college students; (b) confirm the rise of TikTok use among college students; and (c) understand college students’ perceptions of how their major social media platform influences their academic performance. Data were collected from a sample of undergraduate students in the USA (n=306). While the time spent on social media was negatively correlated with GPA (r=-.16, p<.001); time spent on schoolwork had no effect on GPA (r=.03, p=.580). Further, the time allocated to social media usage positively correlated with the time devoted to schoolwork (r=.14, p=.020), suggesting the pervasiveness of social media multitasking among college students. TikTok was the most commonly used social media platform, particularly by women. However, while TikTok-favoring students were more likely to think their GPA would be higher were they off social media, their GPA was not significantly different from other users who favored Snapchat and Instagram as their primary social media platforms, implying a discrepancy between student perception and reality. This may be because the TikTok videos are very short, thus one may watch a high number of them in a row and assume they have spent a long time on the app, which may have not been the case.
Belarusian Regime Perceptions of Russian Aggression in Ukraine
Authors: Țicălău Robert-Gabriel
Published: January 2024

This article examines how Belarusian officials reacted to Russia’s aggression against Ukraine after its outbreak in February 2022 to March 2023. Although the Belarusian president initially tried to maintain friendly relations with Kyiv, he later chose to support his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, and the invasion of Ukraine.

In other words, this paper argues that Aliaksandr Lukašenka’s decision to support pro-Russian narratives about Moscow’s war of aggression against Ukraine was taken as a result of the pressure that Vladimir Putin exerted on him, as well as the awareness that Russia alone guarantees his political survival. However, during their interactions throughout 2022 and 2023, the Belarusian president made efforts to avoid ‘entrapment’—that is, being dragged into the conflict through the commitments he assumed within the Union State—to demonstrate to the entire international community that he still maintains some room of maneuver in his relationship with Russia.
The Transformation of the Dilemma of Role Exchange in the Household: Analyzed Gender in Family Resilience Discourse in National Law and Islamic Law
Authors: Abubakar Fatum , Saadah Mazroatus , Na'mah Ulin
Published: January 2024

This article analyzes the dilemma of changing roles in a household that is often unequal. Inequality occurs due to the wife's dominant role in meeting the family's needs; the wife bears a double burden compared to the husband. This study uses qualitative research with a literature research system through a formal juridical approach and gender analysis. The subject of this research refers to the articles in the Marriage Act and Compilation of Islamic Law. Researchers chose purposive sampling based on specific criteria and categories that can be described and analyzed. The findings of this study indicate the dilemma of relationships and roles in the household, where the ideal relationship within the family must be a provision for family resilience to realize national resilience. In addition, working women must be able to carry out their rights and obligations in a balanced way, even though information technology and the media are challenges to family life today. The optimization of the marriage guidance program and the reconstruction of Islamic Family Law and the Marriage Law must serve as an affirmation basis for the dynamics of marital relationship patterns. However, society must also understand that the social role of a partner is not absolute. His position can be exchanged as needed for the continuation of the marriage.

Authors: Shuhufi Muhammad , Purkon Arip
Published: January 2024

This study analyzed the application of Islamic law in the Sundanese ethnic community and explored the relationship between Sundanese social life and Islamic law. This research is qualitative research with a case study approach. The collection of data was obtained through observation and documentation. Data is described systematically and objectively, then analyzed using the content analysis method. This study concluded that acculturation and assimilation between the structure of Sundanese society and Islamic law had formed a unique characteristic of Sundanese society. It can occur because the reality of Sundanese people who have accepted Islam is due to harmony with Sundanese values. This research can be used as a model for building a harmonious relationship between Islamic law and the social structure of society. Islamic law can be applied without damaging the social structure of society. Culture, social structure, and Islamic law can be applied harmoniously. This study provided an empirical example of a harmonious relationship between the social structure of society and the application of Islamic law. Both can run simultaneously without eliminating each other.
Prohibition of Interfaith Marriage in Indonesia: A Study of Constitutional Court Decision Number 24/PUU-XX/2022
Authors: Sidqi Imaro , Rasidin Mhd.
Published: January 2024

This article aims to analyze the decision of the Constitutional Court Number 24/PUU-XX/2022 concerning interfaith marriage from a philosophical, juridical, and empirical-sociological perspective so that it is more comprehensive because it covers various aspects, including religious views, law, interreligious communication, change law, human rights perspective, and polemic in society. This research is juridical-normative research, which uses a statutory approach, a concept approach, and a case approach through descriptive-qualitative analysis. The study results show that interfaith marriages are not permitted in Indonesia, both from the point of view of Islamic Law, the laws of other religions, the sociocultural community, and the Marriage Law. Therefore, the Constitutional Court issued several decisions to prohibit interfaith marriages, one of which was the Constitutional Court Decision Number 24/PUU-XX/2022, which completely rejected interfaith marriages. In its decision, the Constitutional Court does not allow interfaith marriages for three simple reasons: First, philosophically, interfaith marriages do not represent Pancasila and the essence of the formation of the Constitution. Second, juridically, interfaith marriages have no place in the Marriage Law because the state protects religion, so society remains following its corridors. Third, sociologically, interfaith marriage violates many norms, both local religion and custom. Therefore, from the perspective of religion, law, and sociocultural norms, interfaith marriages are generally not permitted in Indonesia so this research can formulate a balanced policy between individual rights and religious values in interfaith marriages.

Dwangsom: Investigate the Conceptual Basis of Religious Court on Child Custody Rulings
Authors: L Sudirman , Sunuwati Sunuwati , Fasieh Muh. Alim
Published: January 2024

This study aims to investigate the philosophical underpinnings of the law regarding the issue of religious court judges' decisions regarding the right to control and care for children. Various Religious Court decisions cannot be obeyed voluntarily by the party controlling the child (the Defendant) because the mother provides the finest care for children under 12. Based on the decision of the party entitled to care for the child (Plaintiff), and according to the survey, several respondents found the decision to be hollow (illusion). It is a normative study with a conceptual approach that is then descriptively and qualitatively analyzed. Initially, the application of Dwangsom in child support cases was psychological pressure on the Defendant to voluntarily carry out the provisions of the decision and psychological protection for the child, according to the results. Despite this, Dwangsom must be provided upon request. Second, a court decision grants a Dwangsom petition, effectively legalizing the practice in cases of religious child-rearing. Thirdly, the Judge's approval of the Plaintiff's request to establish Dwangsom positively affects the renewal of Islamic family law in Indonesia because numerous decisions regarding child support are not made voluntarily.
Implications of the Law of Religious Moderation on Interfaith Marriages
Authors: Gunawan Edi , Tohis Reza Adeputra , Hakim Budi Rahmat
Published: January 2024

This research examines the implications of religious moderation on interfaith marriages in the city of Manado. The method used is qualitative with a case study approach; data collection is through observation, interviews, and documentation, which is then processed using the triangulation method. The findings show that religious moderation indirectly influences the sustainability of interfaith marriages in Manado. The implications are realized in the form of religious moderation, which aims to eliminate or minimize violence in the name of religion and uphold diversity through upholding the values of tolerance, thereby increasing guarantees for the continuity of interfaith marriages. These implications become more complex than the laws governing interfaith marriages, especially the Marriage Law (UU Number 16 of 2019) and the Compilation of Islamic Law (KHI). The implications of religious moderation in interfaith marriages underscore the need for legal transformation that recognizes religious diversity as a social asset, encourages interreligious dialogue, and ensures that legal regulations do not hinder individual religious freedom. Encouraging policy reforms that respect differences in beliefs is crucial in creating inclusive spaces and respecting human rights in interfaith marriages.

The interaction of Islamic economics and government transformation Technology in Indonesian Muslim society can create justice, prosperity for all parties, and blessings both in this world and the hereafter, to know the interaction of Islamic economics and government transformation Technology in Indonesian Muslim society. The research method uses a quantitative survey approach to ensure accuracy and relevance in this research. The type of data used is primary data using a sampling technique via snowball sampling using an online survey. With locations in 16 provinces in Indonesia: South Sulawesi, West Java, East Java, DKI Jakarta, Nanggroe Aceh Darussalam, North Sumatra, Gorontalo, South Sumatra, East Kalimantan, North Maluku, West Kalimantan, Riau, West Papua, Bali, Papua, and East Nusa Tenggara, it can see that the largest is DKI Jakarta and the lowest is West Papua, with several 1200 informants in each province, 75 informants with a period of 2 years. The technique used to collect study data on published material in the interaction between Islamic economics and government transformation technology is that Islamic economics is based on Islamic ethical principles such as the prohibition of usury (interest), justice, and fair distribution. In Indonesian Muslim society, these principles can be used as a guide in business and finance, and advances in technology, especially the internet and digital platforms, have provided greater access for society to participate in the economy and governance, with Islamic economics encouraging entrepreneurship. Interaction between Islamic economics and technology has great potential to shape Indonesia's economic, social, and governmental future in a way that is more in line with social justice.

Published: January 2024

Background: The interaction between oxidative status markers and biological rhythms is considered particularly important in the pathogenesis of many diseases and more effective therapies. We aimed to determine if the salivary secretion of myeloperoxidase exhibits diurnal variations, and if the potential daily variability differs seasonally. Methods: The study was performed in Poznan, Poland (52,25°N, 16,58°E) in 10 healthy male volunteers (age median 23.5 years). Whole mixed unstimulated saliva was collected in summer (August) and winter (December) during 36 h at 2-h intervals starting at 6 a.m. on Saturday and ending at 6 p.m. on Sunday, in the domestic setting. The samples were analysed for myeloperoxidase (MPO) and cortisol by immunoassays. The presence of the circadian rhythm of cortisol secretion in saliva confirmed the rhythmicity of the volunteers. Results: For salivary MPO, significantly higher concentrations compared to midnight and noon were observed for 4 a.m. in both summer and winter. Using the cosinor analysis, the variations in salivary MPO levels showed a moderate fit for the 12-h period rhythm (acrophases: in summer 05:37/17:37, in winter 06:16/18:16), without significant differences in the rhythm parameters in summer and winter. However, higher self-reported Global Seasonal Score (which may predispose to seasonal affective disorder) was associated with significantly stronger relative amplitude (RS = 0.811) in winter season only. Conclusions: In conclusion, our findings suggest the possible ultradian rhythm for MPO in saliva, with two peaks during the day, regardless of the season.

Background: Ferroptosis, an iron-dependent form of cell death, plays a crucial role in the progression of various cancers, including colon adenocarcinoma (COAD). However, the multi-omics signatures relevant to ferroptosis regulation in COAD diagnosis remain to be elucidated. Methods: The transcriptomic, miRNAomic, and methylomic profiles of COAD patients were acquired from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). Ferroptosis activity in these patients was determined, represented by a ferroptosis score (FS), using single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA) based on the expression of ferroptosis-related genes. Results: Results showed that the COAD patients with high-FS displayed favorable survival outcomes and heightened drug sensitivity. They also exhibited an up-regulation of genes involved in immune-related pathways (e.g., tumor necrosis factor signaling pathway), suggesting a correlation between immunity and ferroptosis in COAD progression. Furthermore, three survival prediction models were established based on 10 CpGs, 12 long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), and 14 microRNAs (miRNAs), respectively. These models demonstrated high accuracy in predicting COAD survival, achieving areas under the curve (AUC) >0.7. The variables used in the three models also showed strong correlations at different omics levels and were effective at discriminating between high-FS and low-FS COAD patients (AUC >0.7). Conclusions: This study identified different DNA methylation (DNAm), lncRNA, and miRNA characteristics between COAD patients with high and low ferroptosis activity. Furthermore, ferroptosis-related multi-omics signatures were established for COAD prognosis and classification. These insights present new opportunities for improving the efficacy of COAD therapy.

Vascular diseases are amongst the most serious diseases affecting human life and health globally. Energy metabolism plays a crucial role in multiple vascular diseases, and the imbalance of energy metabolism in cells from the blood vessel wall can cause various vascular diseases. Energy metabolism studies have often focused on atherosclerosis (AS) and pulmonary hypertension (PH). However, the roles of energy metabolism in the development of other vascular diseases is becoming increasingly appreciated as both dynamic and essential. This review summarizes the role of energy metabolism in various vascular diseases, including AS, hemangioma, aortic dissection, PH, vascular aging, and arterial embolism. It also discusses how energy metabolism participates in the pathophysiological processes of vascular diseases and potential drugs that may interfere with energy metabolism. This review presents suggestions for the clinical prevention and treatment of vascular diseases from the perspective of energy metabolism.

Background: Heliox shows protective effects against acute focal ischemia-reperfusion injury in the brain. However, further research is needed to unveil the intricate molecular mechanisms involved. Determining how heliox affects ferroptosis caused by oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) in SH-SY5Y cells as well as the underlying mechanism was the goal of the current work. Methods: With the use of 2′,7′-Dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate (DCFH-DA), JC-1, and methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium, we assessed the survival, reactive oxygen species (ROS), and mitochondrial membrane potential in SH-SY5Y cells after they had been exposed to OGD/R and heliox. The expression of molecules associated with ferroptosis and the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K/AKT) pathway was analyzed using quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and immunoblotting, while malondialdehyde (MDA), oxidized glutathione disulfide (GSSG), ferrous ion (Fe2+), and reduced glutathione (GSH) levels were evaluated using biochemical kits. Results: OGD/R treatment reduced the GSH to GSSG ratio; the potential of the mitochondrial membrane; the expression of the proteins GSH, SLC7A11, and glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4); and the ability of SH-SY5Y cells to survive. In contrast, OGD/R treatment increased the expression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX2), ACSL4, and ferritin heavy chain 1 (FTH1) proteins, the production of MDA and GSSG, and the levels of ROS and Fe2+. However, heliox effectively mitigated all these OGD/R-induced effects. Furthermore, in OGD/R-treated SH-SY5Y cells, heliox administration stimulated the PI3K/AKT pathway while suppressing the nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) pathway. When MK-2206, an AKT inhibitor, was applied concurrently to the cells, these outcomes were reversed. Conclusions: Heliox prevents OGD/R from causing ferroptosis in SH-SY5Y cells by activating the PI3K/AKT pathway. This suggests a promising therapeutic potential for heliox use in the management of ischemia/reperfusion injury.

Published: January 2024

The demonstration of a peritricuspid circular movement with a zone of slow conduction in the cavotricuspid isthmus, together with the high efficacy of linear ablation and widely accepted acute endpoints, has established typical flutter as a disease with a well-defined physiopathology and treatment. However, certain aspects regarding its deeper physiopathology, ablation targets, and methods for verifying the results remain to be clarified. While current research efforts have primarily been focused on the advancement of effective ablation techniques, it is crucial to continue exploring the intricate electrophysiological, ultrastructural, and pharmacological pathways that underlie the development of atrial flutter. This ongoing investigation is essential for the development of targeted preventive strategies that can act upon the specific mechanisms responsible for the initiation and maintenance of this arrhythmia. In this work, we will discuss less ascertained aspects alongside the most widely recognized general data, as well as the most recent or less commonly used contributions regarding the electrophysiological evaluation and ablation of typical atrial flutter. Regarding electrophysiological characteristics, one of the most intriguing findings is the presence of low voltage zones in some of these patients together with the presence of a functional, unidirectional line of block between the two vena cava. It is theorized that episodes of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation can trigger this line of block, which may then allow the onset of stable atrial flutter. Without this, the patient will either remain in atrial fibrillation or return to sinus rhythm. Another of the most important pending tasks is identifying patients at risk of developing post-ablation atrial fibrillation. Discriminating between individuals who will experience a complete arrhythmia cure and those who will develop atrial fibrillation after flutter ablation, remains essential given the important prognostic and therapeutic implications. From the initial X-ray guided linear cavotricuspid ablation, several alternatives have arisen in the last decade: electrophysiological criteria-directed point applications based on entrainment mapping, applications directed by maximum voltage criteria or by wavefront speed and maximum voltage criteria (omnipolar mapping). Electro-anatomical navigation systems offer substantial support in all three strategies. Finally, the electrophysiological techniques to confirm the success of the procedure are reviewed.

Coronary artery disease is a leading cause of death worldwide. Major adverse cardiac events are associated not only with coronary luminal stenosis but also with atherosclerotic plaque components. Coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) enables non-invasive evaluation of atherosclerotic plaque along the entire coronary tree. However, precise and efficient assessment of plaque features on CCTA is still a challenge for physicians in daily practice. Artificial intelligence (AI) refers to algorithms that can simulate intelligent human behavior to improve clinical work efficiency. Recently, cardiovascular imaging has seen remarkable advancements with the use of AI. AI-assisted CCTA has the potential to facilitate the clinical workflow, offer objective and repeatable quantitative results, accelerate the interpretation of reports, and guide subsequent treatment. Several AI algorithms have been developed to provide a comprehensive assessment of atherosclerotic plaques. This review serves to highlight the cutting-edge applications of AI-assisted CCTA in atherosclerosis plaque characterization, including detecting obstructive plaques, assessing plaque volumes and vulnerability, monitoring plaque progression, and providing risk assessment. Finally, this paper discusses the current problems and future directions for implementing AI in real-world clinical settings.
