Since A. Velpeau [1] first described a case of isolated paralysis of the anterior serratus muscle leading to the development of winged scapula syndrome, it has been shown that this lesion leads to shoulder joint dysfunction and the development of pain syndrome. Correct movement and positioning of the scapula relative to the rib cage is essential for proper shoulder joint function and positioning of the upper extremity in space. Weakness and loss of biomechanics of scapula motion leads to difficulty in lifting the upper extremity as well as lifting weights. According to the literature, the most common causes of winged scapula syndrome are injuries of the long thoracic nerve (paralysis of the anterior serratus muscle) and the spinal accessory nerve (paralysis of the trapezius muscle). The number of cases of anterior serratus muscle paralysis ranges from 0.0026 to 0.21% [2]. Most authors focus on nerve damage leading to paralysis of the anterior dentate and trapezius muscles. However, in 1930, S. Fichet described the development of winged scapula syndrome as a result of traumatic detachment of the muscles surrounding the scapula [3]. Traumatic detachment of the anterior serratus, trapezius, and rhomboid muscles is an important and understudied problem leading to shoulder joint dysfunction and development of winged scapula. The aim of the review is to study the main injuries leading to the development of wing-shaped scapula syndrome, as well as the main methods of diagnosis and treatment of this pathology.

The study was performed to comparatively evaluate the biomechanical parameters of modern types of transpedicular fixation of "burst" fractures of the lower thoracic and lumbar vertebrae. Information was searched through bibliographic (eLIBRARY.RU, PubMed, etc.) and dissertation databases. 38 papers of medical and biomedical profiles published from 1998 to 2023 were selected. We examined comparative studies of 2 or more types of fixation: computer modeling by the finite element method, in vitro experiments on spine preparations, and data from radiation examinations of the injured before and after surgical treatment. It was found that almost all studies were aimed at comparing the parameters of short-segmental fixation (covering 2 adjacent intact vertebrae) in the 4- and 6-screw variant with each other and with the parameters of extended 8-screw fixation (covering 4 adjacent vertebrae). Computer modeling clearly showed the insufficient effectiveness of 4-screw fixation, even in combination with vertebroplasty of the broken vertebral body. Fixation of the broken vertebra in 6-screw systems significantly improved the biomechanical performance, however, it did not fully approach that of 8-screw constructions. The results of stand biomechanical experiments regarding 6- and 8-screw fixation generally confirmed the conclusions of the previous type of studies. For 4-screw fixation, they turned out to be heterogeneous: such constructions by themselves do not restore the biomechanical state of the spine to the intact state, however, some authors concluded that they can be used in clinical practice. Data from radiation studies have revealed a similar potential of all transpedicular systems for intraoperative correction of spinal deformities. However, in the postoperative period, the success of maintaining the achieved relationships was directly related to the increase in the number of screws in the fixators. Thus, short-segmental 6-screw fixation can be a serious alternative to extended 8-screw fixation. The use of 4-screw systems should be limited to cases of additional reconstruction of the anterior column of the spine with metal implants.

Degenerative spondylogenic myelopathy is one of the common causes of spinal cord dysfunction leading to non-traumatic spastic paraparesis and tetraparesis. Despite the fact that conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a gold standard for radiologic examination of spinal cord, its application for the assessment of disease prognosis and recovery is limited. Over the past decade, diffusion tensor MRI (DT MRI) based on the ability for selective diffusion of water molecules has gained popularity in the evaluation of patients with cervical spondylogenic myelopathy (CSM). The aim of the review is to collect and analyze the existing studies on the use of DT MRI in CSM, to highlight the main directions that can be applied in clinical practice, to review and deepen into the technical aspects of this method of diagnosis and postoperative control. The literature was selected by key words: diffusion tensor imaging, fractional anisotropy, cervical spondylogenic myelopathy. The review identified areas of greatest diagnostic and prognostic value. The fractional anisotropy (FA) of DTI index had the strongest evidence of utility with evidence of medium quality for its use as a biomarker showing correlation with disability in several clinical pathologies. There were also clear correlations between FA scores and clinical mJOA score. It can be concluded that DTI is an informative method for CSM, opening new possibilities for differential diagnosis and postoperative control, though further studies are needed for standardization and validation of its use before it can be implicated in the clinical practice.

Authors: Rajfer Rebecca A. , Carlson Bradley A. , Johnson Joey P.
Published: January 2024

Femoral neck fractures in physiologically young patients typically occur from high-energy axial loading forces through the thigh with the hip in an abducted position. These fractures have a high rate of associated head, chest, abdominal, and musculoskeletal injuries. High-energy hip fractures differ from traditional geriatric hip fractures regarding incidence, mechanism, management algorithms, and complications. After adequate resuscitation, goals of treatment include anatomic reduction and stable fixation while maintaining vascularity of the femoral head, which can be achieved through a variety of different techniques. Prompt recognition and treatment of these fractures is crucial to achieve a successful outcome because these injuries are often associated with complications such as osteonecrosis, fixation failure, and nonunion.

A Multi-Disciplinary Cybernetic Approach to Pedagogic Excellence
Authors: Hendel Russell Jay
Published: January 2024

This paper presents a theory of good pedagogy that i) unifies several current theories, ii) is cybernetic, that is, content independent, and iii) operationally defined. The paper builds off a recent theoretical unification of pedagogy using the four pedagogic pillars of executive function, goal-setting, attribution theory, and self-efficacy. A novelty of the theory is avoidance of jargon, such as higher cognitive, which, while having intuitive appeal, has meaning which is ambiguous. The theory also avoids secondary terms such as creative or analytic and instead focuses on root psychological processes such as executive function and multiple modalities. The theory is applied in a multi-disciplinary setting addressing both machine and human mastery of tasks. This multi-disciplinarity is synergistic allowing simultaneous considerations of emotional (human) and efficiency (machine) issues. The theory is easily applied to new situations without the need for special training. It is hoped that instructors will begin to use this approach in their instructional design.

New well water cut prediction using machine learning
Authors: Ibrayev Aktan Ye. , Kamaridenova Gaukhar Serikovna , Baluanov Bakytzhan A. , Yelemessov Azamat S.
Published: January 2024

Background: The drilling of new wells is one of the most effective geological and technical activities. In mature fields characterized by high production of reserves and high water availability, the selection of design points for drilling is a difficult task. Forecasting the parameters of new wells is possible by using geological and hydrodynamic models or analytical methods. In this paper, the authors propose the use of machine learning algorithms to predict the initial parameters of new wells based on an extensive set of geological and field data.

Aim: The article describes the process of developing machine learning algorithms and demonstrates the performance indicators of a complex model. As part of this work, testing of machine learning algorithms was performed to predict the start-up water cut of potential candidates.

Materials and methods: Within the framework of this work, various machine learning methods were applied on geological and technical field data.

Results: The developed complex model showed acceptable convergence results based on classification and regression metrics, which indicates its applicability for predicting the start-up water cut of project wells.

Conclusion: This method of predicting indicators is an alternative tool for predicting the start-up water cut of new wells, which makes it possible to clarify and supplement the forecast parameters calculated using a geological and hydrodynamic model or empirical dependencies of the initial water cut of new wells on geological parameters.
On approaches to solving problems when modeling polymer flooding at the Kalamkas oil field
Authors: Muratova Zarina M , Tuyakov Nauryzbek K. , Tajibayev Maksat  O.
Published: January 2024

Background: Currently, polymer flooding is one of the most effective methods for increasing reservoir recovery, accordingly and modeling this process is of particular relevance.

Aim: The purpose of hydrodynamic modeling is to predict the distribution of parameters, technological indicators, and simulate all possible development scenarios. Based on the simulation results, decisions are made on the profitability of projects.

Materials and methods: There are a number of significant problems in the process of hydrodynamic modeling, one of which is adaptation. Difficulties with adaptation are mainly associated with the incorrect determination of filtration – capacitive properties, which is directly caused by the lack of core research data. The main physical parameters that determine the filtration-capacitive properties of reservoir rocks are porosity, permeability, relative phase permeabilities, and saturation. These properties are critical for accurate fluid flow modeling and production forecasting. However, the lack of core data limits our understanding of these properties and affects the quality of model fit.

Due to the insufficient data on the oil field in this Vostok site of horizon Ю-1 of the Kalamkas field, the approved initial geological reserves differ from the reserves according to the model by approximately 20%. For a more accurate adaptation of the hydrodynamic model, the availability of current initial geological reserves is significantly insufficient.

Results: In this article, a number of approaches were applied to solve the above-mentioned problem in the hydrodynamic modeling of polymer flooding in the Kalamkas oil field, and as a result, the results obtained were demonstrated.

Conclusion: Hydrodynamic modeling allows us to conduct numerical experiments to optimize the parameters of polymer flooding, helps to study their influence and select the optimal ratio to improve the efficiency of the flooding process.
About flooding of low-permeable formations
Authors: Bersenev Sergey F. , Badamshina Guzel N. , Evlampiev Yaroslav V. , Emchenko Olga V. , Mullagalin Ilyas Z.
Published: January 2024

Due to the depletion of hydrocarbon reserves in traditional reservoirs with good filtration and reservoir properties, there is currently increasing interest in hard-to-recover reserves, and the main difficulty in developing such reservoirs is the efficiency of reservoir pressure maintenance systems. When developing low-permeability reservoirs, various mechanisms of oil displacement during flooding can be distinguished. For reservoirs with permeability less than 1 mD, there is no need to maintain high wellhead pressure; moreover, with a large accumulated compensation, stopping the maintenance of reservoir pressure for up to six months does not lead to a drop in production, which creates the prerequisites for organizing cyclic flooding. This will solve a number of problems that arise while maintaining reservoir pressure when working in such conditions.
The facies structure of reservoirs sometimes has a decisive influence on the performance of wells and their interinfluence. The transition to the development of fields with a complex geological structure, low filtration characteristics of the formation, the existence of geological bodies with different properties requires not only careful formation of a conceptual understanding of the field, but also the creation of detailed facies digital maps taking into account the existence of zones with different sedimentation, which, as a consequence, creates zones with different filtration and capacitance properties, requiring different approaches to development.

The advent of automated driving systems introduces a paradigm shift with the possibility to revolutionize transportation systems on our roads. Benefits of improved safety, and operational efficiency is foreseen by actors in the business and the hopes of fully automated vehicles without the need for human intervention is high. However, for a foreseeable future the human still has an important role to play in monitoring and control of vehicles where the technology still is not sufficiently capable to handle all situations – the role of remote operator. This paper explores the human factors of remote operations of road vehicles from a socio-technical systems perspective. The paper points out six socio-technical dimensions of remote operation and discusses the challenges that needs to be considered in human-automation systems design to achieve safety and efficiency in the remote vehicle operations of tomorrow. The paper explores the multidimensional challenge of socio-technical systems design in the remote operation context. To do so, the six key human factors dimensions of remote operation are explained and elaborated. The interrelations between the dimensions are also explored to underline the need to establish a systems thinking approach for remote operation challenges. The goal of the paper is to contribute to, and foster an integrated approach to human-systems interaction in remote operation of road vehicles, acknowledging the complexity and interdependence of elements in this new era of transportation.
Participants' speed-accuracy trade-off behavior in high-stress situations in simulator studies
Authors: Usai Marcel , Schäfer Philip , Daniel Herzberger Nicolas , Flemisch Frank
Published: January 2024

This paper describes the phenomenon of user speed-accuracy trade-off in decision making in time and safety critical domains. We have observed such a behavior in two simulator studies, using the example of a takeover request (TOR) in a driving simulator and a search and collect task in an Industry 4.0 virtual reality (VR) environment. In both studies, some participants were observed trading decision accuracy for reaction speed, ignoring obvious visual cues, resulting in a failure of the task, which could have been prevented. The paper describes the phenomena and raises but does not yet solve the question, how to react to this behavior, either by adapting the process of Human Systems Integration, or by adapting the design e.g., with additional escalation patterns of a co-system.

Human-AI Interaction: An Analysis of Anthropomorphization and User Engagement in Conversational Agents with a Focus on ChatGPT
Authors: Simas Gustavo , Ribas Ulbricht Vânia
Published: January 2024

Anthropomorphism, the attribution of human-like characteristics to non-human entities, and Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) or Human-AI Interaction (HAI) have become a significant topic of interest in the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) with the rise of Large Language Models (LLMs). From this scenario, this article examines the concept of anthropomorphism in the context of chatbots, especially ChatGPT. Drawing on a range of contemporary research and use cases, various implications, benefits, challenges, and ethical considerations associated with anthropomorphism in AI are explored. The findings highlight the potential benefits of anthropomorphism in enhancing user engagement, trust, and acceptance. However, challenges such as overreliance, privacy concerns, and accuracy issues need to be addressed. Answer-Bot Effect and other psychological mechanisms experienced in HCI with ChatGPT reinforce the Computer-Are-Social-Actors paradigm, the Attachment Theory and the Media Equation hypothesis. Ethical considerations are crucial in ensuring responsible development and deployment of anthropomorphic AI systems. Frameworks such as HCAI, IFA, SPADE or SEEK can be of help in ensuring that the development and deployment of such models are responsible and ethical. The need for further research to understand the full potential and limitations of anthropomorphism in Conversational Agents is emphasized, particularly in the context of ChatGPT and Smart Personal Assistants (SPAs).

Technological developments like automation, autonomous functions or generative artificial intelligence might contribute solving global challenges like global warming, energy shortage or demographic change, but only if this technology is intelligently integrated with humans, organizations, and the environment, in short: Only with a truly intelligent Human Systems Integration (HSI). Examples for this integration challenge can be found in aviation with increasingly automated aircraft or uncrewed aircraft systems (UAS), on the road with partially and highly automated vehicles, in industry 4.0 with partially autonomous factories, or in defence systems with highly automated or “autonomous” weapon systems.Key concepts that help to structure the complexity of such sociotechnical systems are operation modes e.g., with the example of mode confusion in aviation (e.g., Abbott et al., 1996), levels of automation (LOA, starting with Sheridan et al., 1978, landmark publication by Parasuraman et al., 2000 and SAE, 2021), layers of assistance and automation (e.g., Pacaux-Lemoine & Flemisch, 2019 and Flemisch et al., 2019), and Human Systems Patterns (e.g., Alexander et al., 1977 and Baltzer, 2021).Especially in the discussion about vehicle automation, the perception in the community might be that everything is solved with LOA (e.g., as the SAE, 2021 based on bast, Gasser et al., 2012). On the other hand, with more variation in automation, it becomes increasingly clear that the concept of LOA is very valuable from an engineering perspective, but not sufficiently clear for users without being complemented with other concepts. For human factors and human systems integration (HSI) in aviation, automotive & transportation automation as well as in Industry 4.0, we successfully used LOA together with modes, layers and especially patterns, and matched them with the classical human factors constructs of performance, workload, situation awareness and usability.A key concept for a sufficient understanding of LOA, modes, layers and patterns are models, especially mental models as a representation of the real human-machine system within the cognition of the human or machine actors in the different layers of a system. More precisely, it is crucial to maintain the consistency between levels, layers, modes and patterns, i.e., sufficient consistency of the mental models and, based on this, sufficient situational awareness of all relevant stakeholders. Subsequently, the consistency between capability, authority, control and finally responsibility is important (e.g., Flemisch et al., 2012 and F. Flemisch et al., 2023).

Outlier detection can assist individuals involved in the public budgeting process by enabling them to focus on specific values within the budget plan, which is particularly valuable considering the extensive nature of these plans (the 2023 German federal budget comprised 3,214 pages). Through a human-centered development approach, this study evaluates the feasibility of implementing algorithms for outlier detection in the context of public budgeting in Germany. In addition, results of the three algorithms Isolation Forest, One-Class Support Vector Machine, and Local Outlier Factor are compared. Our results reveal two insights: 1. The quality and availability of data pose fundamental challenges for outlier detection using machine learning in Germany; 2. The tested algorithms are indeed proficient in detecting certain values within the budget plan as anomalous and they exhibit a certain level of consistency. Nevertheless, computing the measure of accuracy presents difficulties due to the complexity of discerning when a value is in accordance with political intent or constitutes an error. The study overall highlights the potential of outlier detection in public budgeting while emphasizing the requirement for appropriate datasets and ongoing evaluation by the target audience.
Virtual Reality in Museum: Exploring the User Experience of Exhibition Narrative
Authors: Hu Xin , Hsun Wang Po
Published: January 2024

The exhibition narrative of traditional museums is “artifact- centered”, while the modern virtual museum is “people- centered”. The paper first analyzes the current typical VR narrative cases, summarizes the relevant elements and basic characteristics of virtual space narrative, and finds that there are many similarities with the narrative methods in traditional movies, but the relationship between storytelling in the virtual world and the audience The interactive relationship is closer. How to attract the audience's attention to the exhibits to enhance the VR exhibition experience is particularly important in the narrative design of virtual exhibitions. As we all know, the audience's line of sight in the three-dimensional space is not restricted because the audience has the freedom to distribute the line of sight.This research first confirmed the categories of points of interest that affect attention through expert interviews, including the physical layer, behavioral layer, and application layer of the VR system. Through 57 questionnaires, the behavioral characteristics, and psychological needs of audience for VR exhibition narratives were collected, Sample analyses were also conducted for this. Taking the design of China's virtual cultural relics exhibition as an example, the author mainly uses clues of points of interest in the design space to guide the audience to focus or distract their attention. During the narrative process of the exhibits, it was discovered that the connections between the points of interest are not isolated but have Continuous. Based on the narrative theory of "story and discourse", 7 points of interest were selected to explore the feasibility of point-of-interest narratives from three aspects: type combination, spatial arrangement, and interaction method. By comparing the attention-guiding effects of two different sets of interest points in linear narratives and non-linear narratives in two testing groups, a contextual correspondence between the audience's attention selection and points of interest was established. Through evaluation tests, we found that narrative methods that use points of interest to guide the audience's attention are feasible. Non-linear narratives have more opportunities than single-line narratives, such as increasing the application of interactive methods that guide the audience's attention. The conclusions have certain implications for the narrative design of VR exhibition.
