Authors: Быкова А.А. , Королев М.С.
Published: July 2024

В данной статье предлагается метод оперативного определения нефтенасыщенности, который может использоваться как во время мониторинга текущего состояния нефтяных месторождений (залежей) прогнозирование уровня добычи углеводородов, а так же планирование геолого-технических мероприятий направленных на увеличение конечной нефтеоотдачи. Для оценки нефтенасыщенности по предлагаемой методике необходимо системно оценить информацию полученную в ходе исследования керна и интерпритации индикаторных диаграмм, при допущении, что процесс фильтрации флюида к скважине происходит согласно линейному закону Дарси. Необходимо построить индикаторные диаграммы по жидкости и по нефти, а затем соотнести с динамикой движения флюидов, полученных при исследовании определения относительных фазовых проницаемостей, затем при сопоставлении двух исследований определяем нефтенасыщенность в прискважинной зоне.

This article proposes a method for the operational determination of oil saturation, which can be used both during monitoring of the current state of oil fields (deposits), forecasting the level of hydrocarbon production, as well as planning geological and technical measures aimed at increasing the final oil recovery. To assess oil saturation according to the proposed methodology, it is necessary to systematically evaluate the information obtained during the core study and interpretation of indicator diagrams, assuming that the fluid filtration process to the well occurs according to Darcy's linear law. It is necessary to construct indicator diagrams for liquid and oil, and then correlate them with the dynamics of fluid movement obtained during the study of determining relative phase permeabilities, then, when comparing the two studies, we determine the oil saturation in the down-hole zone.

Una base dati per lo studio del sistema del privilegio librario nell’Europa moderna
Authors: Ottone Andrea , Ottone Andrea , Campillo Pardo Alberto José , Citron Alica-Nana , Buning Marius
Published: July 2024

Il presente saggio discute le premesse teoriche, le funzionalità operative e le prospettive divulgative di una banca dati inerente alla storia del privilegio librario nella prima età moderna. La base dati è stata sviluppata all’interno del progetto Before Copyright, finanziato dal Consiglio Europeo delle Ricerche e strutturato presso il Dipartimento di archeologia, conservazione e storia dell’Università di Oslo. Dilatando lo spettro di ricerca dalla storia del libro, di cui il privilegio librario è stato sino ad ora naturale area di pertinenza, il progetto si propone di toccare ambiti quali la storia intellettuale, la storia giuridica e la teoria del diritto. Il presupposto teorico è che il privilegio librario, oltre ad essere stato uno strumento di promozione commerciale, sia stato anche il mezzo attraverso cui gli stati territoriali interferivano nelle dinamiche di filtraggio e sviluppo del sapere. Al fine di individuare un modello interpretativo stabile, fondato sullo spoglio di una vasta messe di fonti storiche, è stato creato un database relazionale. Questo avrà lo scopo di frammentare e riaggregare secondo propositi logici dinamici la molteplicità di dati bibliografici, geografici e biografici derivati da una grande quantità di privilegi emessi nei diversi stati europei per un periodo cronologico compreso fra il 1470 e il 1800 circa, quando cioè il sistema del privilegio venne progressivamente sostituito dal più moderno sistema del diritto d’autore.

Fashioning inequality
Authors: Battisti Jacopo , Spennato Alessandro
Published: July 2024

Fast fashion, a phenomenon born in globalisation and consumer capitalism, represents a meeting point of commerce, culture and exploitation. Characterised by the rapid replication of catwalk trends and the relentless pursuit of profit, it has revolutionised our approach to clothing consumption. However, behind the lure of fast fashion lies a darker reality of economic imperialism and exploitation. Outsourced production in developing countries, driven by the search for cheap labour and resources, perpetuates a cycle of dependency and inequality. Furthermore, the cultural appropriation and commodification of indigenous designs further underline the colonial mentality inherent in the fast fashion industry. Navigating the complexities of globalisation and consumerism, it becomes imperative to critically examine the impacts of fast fashion on individuals and societies. By understanding the underlying forces that drive consumer behaviour and the systemic inequalities perpetuated by the industry, we can begin to challenge the status quo and imagine a more equitable and sustainable future.
Uniform design innovation

Published: July 2024

The article presents a proposal for a multidisciplinary and multistakeholder learning and collaborative model that connects the worlds of business and academia through the presentation of an experimentation. The model is presented through an experimentation of uniform design, led by University of Bologna, commissioned by the railway company Trenitalia Tper, and in collaboration with the Polytechnic University of Milan. The project aimed to dress the staff of the company by involving students and faculty from the two schools of fashion, product, and service courses with local businesses. The experimentation presented here aims to highlight the ways in which a learning model involving professionals from the world of research and industrial production can enable the elaboration of outputs in line with the current challenges of the contemporary fashion system. The experimentation, along with the proposed method and model, aims at testing and verifying the relevance of the so-called collective intelligence in design-driven innovation processes, particularly those of ‘open innovation’. The proposed experiment confirms the relationship between collective intelligence, as a result of the combined knowledge and expertise of a diverse group, and innovation readiness in enterprises. In this light, a model is presented that, through co-design processes, can propose new strategies for an industry transformation, in a challenging application theme such as technical clothing and uniforms, where what is worn is loaded with values and symbols in society.
Approaching fashion in the metaverse
Authors: Andò Romana
Published: July 2024

Although there is not yet a consolidated and shared definition of metaverse, this concept has established itself in recent years within the public debate, in particular within specific markets, such as in the case of fashion. We constantly read in specialized and non-specialized magazines, about brands who landed in the metaverse or opened their first store there, or released their first Non Fungible Tokens (NFTs ). However, the apparent concreteness of these statements corresponds to a widespread confusion from the consumers’ side. The aim of this article is to reflect, starting from the results of a qualitative research on international Millennials and Generation Zed consumers, on the meanings associated with the metaverse, on the overlap between it and the concepts of fashion digitalization and digital clothing; finally on the effective media literacy and expectations of who should be the target of these innovations. In particular, the goal is to investigate the well-known relation between fashion and individual self-presentation within the metaverse.

Published: July 2024

Background: The percentage of total colonoscopies is now super-passing the level of 95 % allowing the adenoma detection rate to be greater than the suggestive level of 25 % in men and 15 % in women. This review aims to provide the reader with the current knowledge concerning indications, usefulness, limitations and future perspectives of this probably most important screening technique for colorectal cancer available today. Colonoscopy has become the mainstay for screening and surveillance of CRC. The guidelines for screening and surveillance colonoscopy have been recently updated, particularly in light of a greater recognition of the importance of sessile serrated lesions in the development of cancer. Aim: To study colonoscopy as a screening tool for early detection of colorectal malignancy in patient presenting with lower abdominal complaints in a rural setup. Material and Methods: The study conducted at the Department of Surgery, Pravara Rural Hospital and Medical College, Loni, from February 2023 onwards was an observational, descriptive cross-sectional study involving a sample of 70 participants. Eligible participants, men and women aged 18 years and above, presented with lower abdominal complaints and had not undergone previous screening. Those willing to undergo colonoscopy were included, while individuals with a prior diagnosis of colorectal cancer or who had deceased before the study were excluded. Symptoms prompting colonoscopy included lower abdominal pain, cramping, rectal bleeding, tenesmus, diarrhea, constipation, perianal discharge, and melena. Results: In the dietary habits of the study participants, it was observed that only 5 cases adhered strictly to a vegetarian diet. Most patients had difficulty specifying their dietary constituents, but overall, fat and fiber intake was deemed moderately adequate for many individuals. Tobacco use was prevalent among the participants, with 27 out of 50 patients reporting its use in various forms. Among male ....
Spinal Cervical Meningioma
Authors: Lhamlili Mohammed , Dehneh Younes , Khay Hamid , Khoulali Mohamed , Moufid Faycel
Published: July 2024

Cervical spinal tumors, particularly meningiomas, are a significant subset of primary spinal cord tumors. These tumors are generally benign, slow-growing, and predominantly intradural, though a minority may exhibit extradural extension, complicating surgical resection due to invasiveness involving bone and adjacent neurovascular structures. Classification based on dural and ligamentous relationships is crucial in guiding surgical strategies and understanding tumor behavior. Despite generally favorable long-term outcomes and tumor-free survival, there is a potential for recurrence. Effective management relies on comprehensive classification systems and continued advancements in surgical techniques to optimize patient prognosis and enhance treatment efficacy.

Authors: Destri Christina
Published: July 2024

Kedua penyakit diabetes melitus dan tuberkulosis masih memiliki tingkat kejadian yang tinggi di Indonesia, sehingga penting untuk diperhatikan secara serius. Dalam konteks ini, pemahaman yang lebih baik tentang hubungan antara diabetes melitus tipe 2 (DMT2) dan tuberkulosis (TB) menjadi sangat penting dalam upaya pencegahan, diagnosis, dan manajemen kedua penyakit ini. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengidentifikasi berbagai hasil penelitian terkaitan hubungan DMT2 dengan TBC. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode Systematic Literature Review (SLR). Data penelitian dikumpulkan dari literatur yang diterbitkan dalam jurnal ilmiah bereputasi. Literatur dikumpulkan melalui pencarian di database literatur elektronik, seperti Google Schoolar dan Scopus. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan adanya hubungan saling keterkaitan antara DMT2 dan TB. DMT2 dapat meningkatkan risiko terkena TB dengan menurunkan sistem kekebalan tubuh dan menyebabkan peradangan kronis yang merusak jaringan paru-paru, sehingga membuat individu lebih rentan terhadap infeksi TB. Sebaliknya, TB aktif juga dapat memperburuk kondisi DMT2 dengan meningkatkan kadar gula darah dan risiko sepsis pada pasien diabetes. Sehingga, diperlukan upaya pencegahan yang komprehensif untuk mengurangi dampak dari keterkaitan antara DMT2 dan TB tersebut.

Journey to Ithaca: A personal memoir
Authors: Rowland William
Published: July 2024

Journey to Ithaca is an extraordinary memoir about an extraordinary life. Of its author it may well be said, in Shakespeare’s words (from Henry VI, part I, aptly quoted in the prelims): “Who would e’er suppose [he] had such courage and audacity?” From the outset, William Rowland invites his readers to accompany him along his personal journey to Ithaca. It was at Ithaca Mansions in Sea Point, Cape Town, that, at the age of five, a happy little boy lost his vision in consequence of a gunshot through his temple, severing his optic nerves. That was, definitively, the day the light went out. With enormous courage and determination William approached life head-on, achieving what many others might have found too daunting to attempt. Writing with restraint and dignity in Journey to Ithaca, William tells his life story in a series of short chapters marking significant stages and events of his life, recounting the challenges and the achievements in equal measure, and often with gentle humour. What shines through most strongly from this memoir is that at no time has William allowed his blindness to define or limit him and certainly never to deny him the fullness of experience and adventure encountered by the sighted. Intellectual, leader, innovator, activist, author, mentor, as well as loving father—William Rowland fills each of these roles with consummate ability and enthusiasm. His life story thus far, as told in Journey to Ithaca, will inspire all who read it, whether blind or sighted.

Once a skank shunned for its inhuman way of managing public affairs, South Africa ultimately redeemed itself when “the long nightmare of apartheid [ended], and the horrors of four decades of racial oppression began to give way to the bright hopes that had seemed such a distant dream to so many for so long”.1 The country became a democracy in 1994. Its tryst with destiny was consummated on the 27th of April. This day marked that moment that “comes but rarely in history, when an age ends, and the soul of a nation, long suppressed, [found] utterance”.2 Here, I am paraphrasing Jawaharlal Nehru’s words, an icon of India’s long struggle for freedom. He said this on 14 August 1947, as India was preparing for her independence from colonialism. His words to his fellow country men and women aptly define that moment when many South Africans said, “yesterday is a foreign country tomorrow belongs to us”.

В статье представлены результаты исследования нарушений липидного обмена в структуре коморбидной патологии, вопросы своевременности диагностики дислипидемий (ДЛП), рассмотрены причины и последствия нарушений липидного обмена, проанализирована эффективность терапии дислипидемий у пациентов с сердечно-сосудистыми заболеваниями, цереброваскулярными болезнями (ЦВБ) и периферическим атеросклерозом (ПА) с учетом общего сердечно-сосудистого риска (ССО) на амбулаторном этапе. В исследовании приняли участие 66 амбулаторных пациентов с коморбидной патологией. Было установлено, что приоритетные факторы риска развития и прогрессирования атеросклероза – гипертоническая болезнь, ИБС, сахарный диабет 2 типа с макрососудистыми осложнениями. Распространенность ДЛП у больных с коморбидной патологией высока, тип IIa дислипидемии наблюдался более чем у половины случаев, 39 (59,1%), IIb тип дислипидемии - у каждого третьего, 23 (34,8%). Общий 10-летний сердечно-сосудистый риск у пациентов с коморбидными заболеваниями: очень высокий - у большинства, 56 (84,8%), высокий - у каждого восьмого, 8 (12,1%), и умеренный - только у 2 (3%) больных. Эффективность гиполипидемической терапии в зависимости от риска ССО низкая без достижения целевого уровня ОХ ЛНП у большинства пациентов - 57 (86,4%), высокая - только у 9 (13,6%), что требует более внимательного отношения к первичной и вторичной профилактике дислипидемий

The article presents the results of a study of lipid metabolism disorders in the structure of comorbid pathology, issues of timely diagnosis of dyslipidemia (DLP), considers the causes and consequences of lipid metabolism disorders, analyzes the effectiveness of dyslipidemia therapy in patients with cardiovascular diseases, cerebrovascular diseases (CVD) and peripheral atherosclerosis (PA), taking into account general cardiovascular risk (CVD) at the outpatient stage. 66 outpatient patients with comorbid pathology participated in the study. It was found that the priority risk factors for the development and progression of atherosclerosis are hypertension, coronary heart disease, type 2 diabetes mellitus with macrovascular complications. The prevalence of DLP in patients with comorbid pathology is high, type IIa dyslipidemia was observed in more than half of the cases, 39 (59.1%), type IIb dyslipidemia, in one in three, 23 (34.8%). The overall 10-year cardiovascular risk in patients with comorbid diseases is very high, in the majority, 56 (84.8%), high, in every eighth, 8 (12.1%), and moderate, in only 2 (3%) patients. The effectiveness of lipid-lowering therapy, depending on the risk of CVD, is low without achieving the target level of LDL in most patients, 57 (86.4%), high, only in 9 (13.6%), which requires a more attentive attitude to primary and secondary prevention of dyslipidemia

Нейронные сети играют важную роль в исследовании риска развития хронических неинфекционных заболеваний (ХНИЗ). Путем анализа больших объемов медицинских данных о пациентах, нейросети могут выявить скрытые связи и паттерны между различными заболеваниями. Согласно литературным данным, распространенность ХНИЗ составляет до трети населения стран. Нейросетевые модели отличаются от других методов тем, что они уникальным образом задают параметры системы уравнений и настраивают модель под реальные данные, тогда как другие методы делают обратное - подгоняют реальные процессы под математические функции. Применение нейронных сетей в изучении коморбидности ХНИЗ позволяет более точно определить группы пациентов с высоким риском осложнений. Нейронные сети могут использоваться для определения наиболее связанных заболеваний, их взаимоотягощенного действия на пациента. В статье рассматривается создание нейросетей для повышения лечебно-профилактических мероприятий у коморбидных пациентов после перенесенной COVID-инфекции. Указаны входные и выходные данные системы, приведены архитектуры нейронных сетей и их веса, а также подробные результаты моделей. Таким образом, нейронные сети играют важную роль в изучении коморбидности ХНИЗ и могут помочь в прогнозировании риска осложнений

Neural networks play an important role in studying the risk of developing chronic non-infectious diseases (CNCDs). By analyzing large volumes of patient medical data, neural networks can reveal hidden connections and patterns between different diseases. According to the literature, the prevalence of CNDs is up to a third of the country's population. Neural network models differ from other methods in that they uniquely set the parameters of a system of equations and adjust the model to real data, while other methods do the opposite - they adjust real processes to mathematical functions. The use of neural networks in the study of the comorbidity of chronic non-diseases makes it possible to more accurately identify groups of patients with a high risk of complications. Neural networks can be used to determine the most related diseases and their mutually aggravating effect on the patient. The article discusses the creation of neural networks to improve treatment and preventive measures in comorbid patients after COVID infection. The input and output data of the system are indicated, the architectures of neural networks and their weights are given, as well as detailed results of the models. Thus, neural networks play an important role in studying the comorbidity of chronic NCDs and can help predict the risk of complications

Introduction: Fractures of the femur in young ages, both diaphyseal, intertrochanteric and femoral neck, are usually associated with high energy mechanisms. The treatment of femoral diaphysis fractures in children is controversial because the procedures used in adults are not applicable in the growth period.
Objective: to detail the current information related to femoral diaphyseal fractures in children, generalities, epidemiology, mechanism of production, physiopathology, characteristics of consolidation, treatment and complications.
Methodology: a total of 34 articles were analyzed in this review, including review and original articles, as well as clinical cases, of which 21 bibliographies were used because the other articles were not relevant to this study. The sources of information were PubMed, Google Scholar and Cochrane; the terms used to search for information in Spanish, Portuguese and English were: diaphyseal fractures, femur fractures in children, femur fractures, treatment of fractures in children, child trauma.
Results: Femoral diaphysis fractures are more common in males with a 3 to 1 ratio. According to age, 11 percent involve children under 2 years old, 21 percent involve children between 3 to 5 years old, 33 percent between 6-12 years old and 35 percent between 13-18 years old. The incidence of exposed fractures is relatively low, being approximately less than 5%.
Conclusions: the management of femur fractures in children is still controversial, so that at present we do not have a general consensus on the ideal treatment, nor is there an effective treatment method that ensures the treatment of all fractures. Each of the various types of treatment has its advantages and disadvantages. The therapeutic alternative chosen will be based on the clinical stability of the affected individual, as well as on the characteristics of the fracture, diameter of the medullary cavity and weight of the individual.
KEY WORDS: children, fractures, trauma, diaphysis, femur.
