Allergy in Russia today: problems and solutions
Authors: Ilina Natalia I.
Published: September 2022

The prevalence and severity of allergic diseases are dramatically increasing worldwide. In Russia, similar alarming trends are exacerbated by several problems in organizing the work of the allergic care service. For example, the number of patients with various allergopathologies still has no accurate data; in vitro diagnostics have serious difficulties; the issues of medical and instrumental support remain critical, including the habitual defect of some medicines; the percentage of prescribing allergen-specific immunotherapy remains low due to the inaccessibility and high cost of treatment; pollen and environmental monitoring is not conducted in all regions of Russia. These key issues are in constant focus of attention of the Russian Association of Allergologists and Clinical Immunologists (RAAKI), which is the leading scientific and professional organization in the field of allergology and clinical immunology in Russia.
The RAAKI is consistently implementing steps that enable knowledge accumulation and dissemination about allergology and immunology in the medical community, thereby harmonizing the interaction between fundamental science and clinical practice and optimizing patient treatment, including medical specialist training in regular schools on drug allergies, allergen-specific immunotherapy, hereditary angioedema, and other topics; developing clinical guidelines for major allergic diseases and related standards of care; regularly publishing guidelines and recommendations on various aspects of allergopathology for both doctors and patients, as well as the Russian Allergological Journal; holding the largest events in this area, including the Annual International Congress on Allergology and Clinical Immunology and the Andrey Dmitrievich Ado Prize of the Russian Allergological Journal; constantly working on the contact with the Ministry of Health, Rospotrebnadzor, the Ministry of Industry and Trade of Russia.
The allergy epidemic in Russia can only become predictable and manageable under the condition of a comprehensive progressive solution to the above problems by all participants in this area.

Authors: González Franco Verónica , González Lomelí Daniel , Maytorena Noriega María de los Ángeles
Published: September 2022

La autoeficacia en matemáticas generada por diversas fuentes de información es esencial para el desarrollo de la habilidad matemática. El objetivo fue analizar el efecto de las fuentes de autoeficacia en matemáticas sobre las creencias de autoeficacia en esta área de conocimiento a partir de la autovaloración de estudiantes universitarios del noroeste de México. Por tanto, se aplicó a 391 universitarios de psicología e ingeniería la escala de fuentes de autoeficacia en matemáticas (EFAM), que mide la experiencia de maestría, experiencia vicaria, persuasión social y estados fisiológicos; y valoraron su desempeño en tareas y actividades en esta área del conocimiento. Los resultados del modelamiento de ecuaciones estructurales (MEE) probaron un efecto directo y significativo de las fuentes de información de autoeficacia en la autovaloración estudiantil de sus capacidades en tareas y actividades matemáticas. Se discute la pertinencia de la EFAM en la población a la que pertenecen los estudiantes encuestados en el estudio.

Kementerian Pekerjaan Umum khususnya Dinas Bina Marga merupakan bagian yang bertanggung jawab atas pembangunan jalan di seluruh Indonesia. Namun, beberapa jalan yang dibangun oleh Dinas Pekerjaan kurang mendapat perawatan dan perbaikan. Perbaikan yang dilakukan seringkali tidak tepat sasaran atau kurangnya informasi tentang jalan yang rusak, dengan begitu maka penggunaan metode SAW untuk mengambil keputusan yang tepat saat memilih prioritas perbaikan. Kondisi jalan merupakan faktor yang mempengaruhi kenyamanan pengguna jalan dan juga merupakan faktor yang menjadi alasan banyaknya kecekalaan lalu lintas. Banyaknya masalah kondisi jalan menjadi suatu kendala yang tidak dapat dipungkiri dari setiap wilayah di Indonesia begitu juga di Provinsi Riau. Terdapat beberapa faktor yang mengakibatkan suatu jalan mengalami kerusakan diantaranya  adalah  jalan yang dilewati oleh kendaraan dengan bobot yang tidak seharusnya seperti  bus dan truk besar.  Data yang akan di pakai dalam penentuan prioritas perbaikan adalah daya yang telah di kumpulkan dengan bagian yang bertanggung jawab dalam kegiatan pemeliharaan jalan Provinsi Riau. Metode Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) sering juga dikenal istilah metode penjumlahan terbobot. Konsep dasar metode SAW adalah mencari penjumlahan terbobot dari rating kinerja pada setiap alternatif pada semua atribut. Metode SAW membutuhkan proses normalisasi matriks keputusan (X) ke suatu skala yang dapat diperbandingkan dengan semua rating alternatif yang adakata kunci dari makalah tersebut dalam daftar kata kunci.

Authors: Barequet Gill , Ben-Shachar Gil
Published: September 2022

We consider minimum-perimeter lattice animals, providing a set of conditions which are sufficient for a lattice to have the property that inflating all minimum-perimeter animals of a certain size yields (without repetitions) all minimum-perimeter animals of a new, larger size.  We demonstrate this result on the two-dimensional square and hexagonal lattices.  In addition, we characterize the sizes of minimum-perimeter animals on these lattices that are not created by inflating members of another set of minimum-perimeter animals.

Published: September 2022

Essentially, Ayurveda is the science of life and longevity. Aging is a process marked by physical, mental and social changes in several dimensions. In present scenario, due to increase in aged people population, the medical science deal with aged population and the diseases occurring in that population. The Ayurvedic approach to geriatrics gives top priority to vatadosha as the main factor in the pathophysiology of aging. Rasadi Dhatus degrade in aging due to structural and functional changes. By using Rasayana we can increase the quality of Rasadi dhatu or tissues by also keeping strotases clean sturdy as the nutrition needed to be carried from one place to other place in the body .Thus Rasayan is considered helpful for optimum tissue health in old age, however they can be maintained and rejuvenated. The Rasayana therapy works primarily on nutrition dynamics and rejuvenates the body on both a mental and physical level. The Swabhavika Vyadhis include aging (Jara). Jara Chikitsa is one of the Ashtanga of Ayurveda and jarachikitsa is included under Rasayanatantra which is a specific branch in Ayurveda.
SUBJECT REVIEW: APPLIED LINGUISTICS AND LANGUAGE TEACHING
Authors: Adnan Salih Faeza
Published: September 2022

Language mirrors understanding of the same or other culture. Meaning is hardly encoded in the world community. Some linguists cannot solve language problems because of its abstractedness. Language communicators learn the second or foreign language at schools for three reasons. First, English is not their first language. Second, they have little or no educational background in experiencing what they know in another language. Third, they have not improved their communication skills in English. Analyzing the language as a mean of communication would not be learned enough without its practice. This paper gives an exclusive preview of applied linguistics. It defines the conversion of different areas of the study of language with second or foreign language education. The connection and distinction between applied linguistics and language teaching is addressed in the study comprehensively. The findings of this review suggests that the two areas need further investigation in the education system.

Authors: Rudy Richard J. , Sitko Michael L. , Russell Ray W. , Lynch David K.
Published: September 2022

Infrared spectroscopy of the recurrent nova U Scorpii from 14.2 days after its 2010 outburst reveals two very strong infrared coronal lines: [Si x] at 1.4305 μm and [Al ix] at 2.0400 μm. Taken together with the detection of coronal lines in the 2022 outburst, this suggests that coronal line emission from U Sco may be a regular, if previously under-observed, occurrence. The strength of the two coronal lines relative the H i emission, and the surprising absence of several commonly seen coronal lines, including some that form under similar conditions as the [Si x] and [Al ix] features, are discussed.

Authors: Sopaj Azemi Edona , Kola Irena , Kola Sandër , Tanka Marjeta
Published: September 2022

Background: Lumbar disc degenerative disease has now been proven as the most common cause of low back pain throughout the world. Approximately 5–15% of patients with low back pain suffer from lumbar disc herniation. Presenting symptoms of lumbar disc degeneration are lower back pain and sciatica which may be aggravated by walking, sitting, standing, bending, lifting etc. Aim: To evaluate based on MRI images the prevalence of LDH in patients with low back pain and its correlation between various demographic data. Methods: This Cross sectional and observational study was conducted from January 2016 to December 2017 at department of Imagery in the University Hospital Center `Mother Theresa`. During the two years’ period of this study, 342 patients of low back pain were presented to department of imagery suspected for lumbar disc herniation. Diagnostic criteria were based upon abnormal findings in MRI. All MRI scans were obtained with 1.5 tesla MRI machine. Data analysis was carried out with SPSS software for Windows version 20.0. Results: Overall 342 patients with LBP came into Imagery department, the prevalence of lumbar disc herniation resulted 31.9% (109/342). Most of patients 60.5% were presented with continuous LBP with a predominance of deterioration of pain by the walking activity 65.2%. The average age of patients with LDH resulted 51.12 years old with min 32 years and max 74 years old. The ratio M:F of LDH patients resulted 1.4, with predominance of males 59.6%. The active age 40-49 years (28.9%) old and 50-59 years (36.9%) were the most affected by LDH compared to other age groups. Based on MRI images disc herniation was most commonly present at the level of L3/L4 and L4/L5. Commonest types of disc herniation were protrusion 63.3% (69/109) followed by extrusion 21.1% (23/109). In the overall multivariate regression analysis, a significant relation between lumbar disk herniation and some of occupation was found (p˂0.05) Conclusions: Biologically, the lumbar herniation disc is a potential contributor to low back pain. The prevalence of LDH among patients with LBP resulted 31.9%, and men were more prone to suffered from disc herniation than women, due to increased mechanical stress and injury. Results reported the frequent occurrence of lumbar disc degenerative disease in active age. The lumbar discs most often affected and leads to herniation are L3-L4, and L4–L5. Research efforts should endeavor to reduce risk factors and improve the quality of life.

BACKGROUND: The fluctuating COVID-19 cases among the pregnant women’s population encountered increased of cases and maternal mortality.

AIM: This research aimed to describe the case of maternal deaths caused by COVID-19.

CASE REPORT: We present nine serial cases of maternal death caused by COVID-19 who were admitted to Dr. Soetomo General Academic Hospital for 14 days in June. We found 32 positive COVID-19 obstetric cases and reported nine maternal deaths with a fatality rate of up to 28%. Seven of nine patients had reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction–confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection, while two had a positive antigen swab. Half of the patients ≥35 years old, and five of nine patients had Class I obesity as preexisting comorbidity. This study reported the death of pregnant woman at their 2nd trimester and 3rd trimester presenting infected by severe COVID-19. The usual symptoms are dyspnea, cough, fever, and decreased consciousness. The result of chest X-ray examination among eight patients showed bilateral pneumonia. Most of cases were referrals from a secondary hospital due to overload hospital capacity. Three patients were directly transferred to the tertiary hospital without receiving initial treatment. Eight of 9 patients (88.9%) were transferred to intensive care unit and intubated due to low oxygen saturation.

CONCLUSION: In conclusion, the limited hospital facility and lack of intensive care capacity for obstetric cases during the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic may enhance the probability of mortality and morbidity in pregnant women infected by COVID-19.

Optimal control of the 3D damped Navier-Stokes-Voigt equations with control constraints
Authors: Kumarasamy Sakthivel
Published: September 2022

In this paper, we consider the 3D Navier-Stokes-Voigt (NSV) equations with nonlinear damping \begin{document}$ |u|^{r-1}u, r\in[1, \infty) $\end{document} in bounded and space-periodic domains. We formulate an optimal control problem of minimizing the curl of the velocity field in the energy norm subject to the flow velocity satisfying the damped NSV equation with a distributed control force. The control also needs to obey box-type constraints. For any \begin{document}$ r\geq 1, $\end{document} the existence and uniqueness of a weak solution is discussed when the domain \begin{document}$ \Omega $\end{document} is periodic/bounded in \begin{document}$ \mathbb R^3 $\end{document} while a unique strong solution is obtained in the case of space-periodic boundary conditions. We prove the existence of an optimal pair for the control problem. Using the classical adjoint problem approach, we show that the optimal control satisfies a first-order necessary optimality condition given by a variational inequality. Since the optimal control problem is non-convex, we obtain a second-order sufficient optimality condition showing that an admissible control is locally optimal. Further, we derive optimality conditions in terms of adjoint state defined with respect to the growth of the damping term for a global optimal control.

The lipid classes, including phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidylserine (PS), phosphatidylinositol (PI), triacylglycerol (TAG), wax ester/cholesterol ester (WE/CE), mono-diacylglycerol (MDG), and free fatty acids (FFA) were separated by thin layer chromatography. The results revealed that TAG and PC were the major lipid classes in parasites; while WE/CE and PS were the most abundant in hosts. As for FA composition, C16:0, C18:0, C18:1n-9, C20:5n-3, and C22:6n-3 were recurrently found to be dominant in all lipid classes of the different organisms studied. However, some differences concerning the abundance and the distribution of several FAs were observed. Overall, the obtained results highlighted that despite the quite strong trophic connection between the parasites and their respective hosts, the parasites could be distinguished by specific lipid profiles.

Entre todas las actividades industriales que se desarrollan en todo el mundo, el sector de la construcción es sin duda el sector más masculinizado. Por ello, en esta investigación se analiza la opinión relativa a la igualdad de género que poseen trabajadores/as de este sector en España. Para lograr este objetivo, se realizó una encuesta web a 1353 ingenieros/as de la construcción en todo el país (48,7% hombres, 51,3% mujeres). Los resultados muestran que los varones, los trabajadores de mayor edad, los autónomos y los trabajadores con mayores niveles de ingresos en el sector son los que tienen la actitud más desfavorable hacia la igualdad de género en la profesión. Estos resultados también permite vislumbrar en qué colectivos se necesita, con mayor urgencia, implementar acciones de sensibilización para que las políticas de igualdad de género tengan éxito en el sector de la ingeniería de la edificación en España.

This paper researches on the influence of socialization strategies on users' learning behavior in online educating platform. According to the organizational socialization theory, four typical socialization strategies of brand communities are studied: information feedbacking, interactive supporting, member educating, and information providing. The study reveals that the above four strategies all have positive influences on social identification, and then promote learning frequency and time. The study also illustrates that the economic stimulus (i.e., extrinsic motivation) of platform has influences on the behavior (i.e., learning frequency and time) of users on it. This research sheds light on that extrinsic motivation of learning has enhancing/crowding out effect on the internal motivation of users.
Alexandre de Humboldt et la pasigraphie en géologie
Authors: Gayet Mireille
Published: September 2022

Alexandre de Humbold n’est sûrement pas celui à qui l’on se réfère pour l’histoire de la cartographie géologique. Cependant, dans l’impossibilité de dresser des cartes géologiques dans les llanos sud-américains, il s’est intéressé à la représentation graphique verticale des couches lithologiques, rédigeant, en 1804, ses Tables de pasigrafia geognostica. Il utilise une approche de la pasigraphie dite figurative avec représentation des couches par un figuré adéquat, déjà suggérée par Guettard en 1726. En 1835, il approfondira l’approche de la pasigraphie algorithmique, chère à Leibniz, avec notation spéciale par des lettres grecques, encore utilisée de nos jours. Cet intérêt « pasigraphique » s’explique chez cet homme, profondément pédagogue, qui se voulait universel et universellement compris.
Enhancing Parents' Engagement to Enhance Children's Learning
Authors: Papathanasiou Maria
Published: September 2022

Philosophy is usually seen as a field that is dealt with only by experts, while it could be the activity in which everyone participates, regardless of age, culture, and socio-economic level, as it is a tool for critical thinking and reflection, a tool that reinforces foundational literacy skills. This chapter is directed toward explaining how an innovative model that enhances parents' engagement in home learning can empower their own and their children's thinking, learning, and communication skills. It is an invitation to parents to actively engage in an inclusive school community that enhances family's literacy skills. It is an attempt to enhance dialogic skills via “philosophic” Socratic dialogue with stories that prompt problematic questions of mutual interest. In the context of COVID-19 health crisis that greatly impacted parents' lives as co-educators of their children, the suggested parents' (and implicitly children) engagement model is suggested as a possible venue.
Family Literacy Practices in Scotland and the Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic
Authors: Macleod Gale , Tett Lyn
Published: September 2022

This chapter reports on two studies that explored the adaptations made by community learning and development workers supporting family learning and literacy projects during the COVID-19 pandemic in Scotland. Both studies were small-scale and largely qualitative, with data generated with parents (Study 1) and practitioners (Studies 1 and 2). Findings suggest that despite all the challenges, including dealing with digital inequality, there was a strong sense of continuation in terms of purpose, principles, and partnership. Both studies identified a desire for a blended approach to continue post pandemic, recognizing that while online made access easier for some groups, in-person provision allows for a sharing of experiences and learning together that can be a challenge to replicate online.
Family Engagement in a Pandemic
Authors: Getfield Jacqueline
Published: September 2022

COVID-19 has introduced a new “normal.” During the pandemic, parents of young children and parents of children enrolled in special education have had to assume the role and so perform as teachers. Teachers have had to find ways to include parents who are willing to serve as de facto teachers. In addition to findings from the Ontario Alliance of Black School Educators (ONABSE) webinar series in 2020, this chapter also draws on other publicly available online documents to reveal the ever-changing education landscape in Ontario, Canada during the COVID-19 pandemic. Family literacy was examined broadly through family engagement practices. This chapter shows that there is no one essential story emerging from the pandemic. To date, very few stories have been told of the students who have blossomed and flourished during the pandemic. By gathering stories of the thoughts and actions of Black educators and parents, the chapter augments the existing literature on home-school-community partnerships in Ontario.

Published: September 2022

The anonymity that users can maintain when connecting to the internet, in addition to the positive effects, such as being able to express their views and ideas freely without fear of retaliation, also carries some risks, such as the fact that it is a significant advantage for malicious users. In order to remove the complete anonymity of internet users, so as to protect unsuspecting users, this work attempts to identify some of their characteristics, namely gender, age, and handedness, using data coming from typing. For this purpose, the rotation forest is used as a classifier, and keystroke dynamics features are selected based on the chi-square feature selection procedure. The final results show that user profiling can be achieved with an accuracy of 88.9% in gender prediction, 86.3% in age prediction, and 94.3% in handedness prediction.
Application of Machine Learning to User Behavior-Based Authentication in Smartphone and Web
Authors: Jayabalan Manoj
Published: September 2022

Authentication is the preliminary security mechanism employed in the information system to identify the legitimacy of the user. With technological advancements, hackers with sophisticated techniques easily crack single-factor authentication (username and password). Therefore, organizations started to deploy multi-factor authentication (MFA) to increase the complexity of the access to the system. Despite the MFA increasing the security of the digital service, the usable security should be given equal importance. The user behavior-based authentication provides a means to analyze the user interaction with the system in a non-intrusive way to identify the user legitimacy. This chapter presents a review of user behavior-based authentication in smartphones and websites. Moreover, the review highlights some of the common features, techniques, and evaluation criteria usually considered in the development of user behavior profiling.

Published: September 2022

The methods used to predict, categorize, and recognize complex data like pictures, audio, and texts have been popular in machine learning. These methods are the basis for future AI-driven internet providers because of unparalleled precision in deep learning methodologies. Commercial firms gather large-scale user data and perform machine learning technique. The massive information necessary for machine learning raises privacy problems. The user's personal and extremely sensitive data such as photographs and voice records are gathered and retained forever by these commercial firms and users can not limit the intents of these sensitive information. In addition, centrally stored data is susceptible to legal and extrajudicial monitoring. Many data owners use profound extensive learning by security and confidentiality. This chapter contains a practical approach that allows several parties to learn a precise model of complex systems for a specific purpose without disclosing their data sets. It provides an interesting element in utility and privacy.
