Published: October 2022

Background

Chest computerized tomography (CT) plays an important role in detecting patients with suspected coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), however, there are no systematic summaries on whether the chest CT findings of patients within mainland China are applicable to those found in patients outside.

Methods

Relevant studies were retrieved comprehensively by searching PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases before 15 April 2022. Quality assessment of diagnostic accuracy studies (QUADAS) was used to evaluate the quality of the included studies, which were divided into two groups according to whether they were in mainland China or outside. Data on diagnostic performance, unilateral or bilateral lung involvement, and typical chest CT imaging appearances were extracted, and then, meta-analyses were performed with R software to compare the CT features of COVID-19 pneumonia between patients from within and outside mainland China.

Results

Of the 8,258 studies screened, 19 studies with 3,400 patients in mainland China and 14 studies with 554 outside mainland China were included. Overall, the risk of quality assessment and publication bias was low. The diagnostic value of chest CT is similar between patients from within and outside mainland China (93, 91%). The pooled incidence of unilateral lung involvement (15, 7%), the crazy-paving sign (31, 21%), mixed ground-glass opacities (GGO) and consolidations (51, 35%), air bronchogram (44, 25%), vascular engorgement (59, 33%), bronchial wall thickening (19, 12%), and septal thickening (39, 26%) in patients from mainland China were significantly higher than those from outside; however, the incidence rates of bilateral lung involvement (75, 84%), GGO (78, 87%), consolidations (45, 58%), nodules (12, 17%), and pleural effusion (9, 15%) were significantly lower.

Conclusion

Considering that the chest CT features of patients in mainland China may not reflect those of the patients abroad, radiologists and clinicians should be familiar with various CT presentations suggestive of COVID-19 in different regions.
Effect of vertical vibration stimulation at different frequencies on delayed muscle soreness in athletes: A randomized trial
Authors: Cheng Liang , Wang Kun , He Benxiang , Yan Yang
Published: October 2022

Background

The effect of stimulation with different vibration frequencies on delayed muscle soreness (DOMS) has not yet been determined. This study was conducted to investigate the effect of medium- and high-frequency vertical vibration stimulation on DOMS in track and field athletes.

Methods

A total of 38 elite men's track and field athletes were recruited during the off-season. Through the digital randomization method, the participants were divided into three groups. Two-knee DOMS modeling was performed on the medium-frequency group (MFG, 25 Hz, n = 13), high-frequency group (HFG, 50 Hz, n = 12) and control group (CG, 0 Hz, n = 13). The three groups were matched in age, height and body mass. Vertical vibration stimulation was performed for 10 min on the MFG and HFG. Visual analog score (VAS); interleukin-6 (IL-6), lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) and creatine kinase (CK) levels and knee extension peak torque (PT) were determined immediately and at 24, 48, and 72 h after vibration.

Results

The 48 and 72 h VASs of the HFG were lower than those of the MFG and CG. The immediate and 24 and 48 h IL-6 concentrations in the HFG were lower than those in the CG. The 24 h IL-6 concentration in the HFG was lower than that in the MFG and that in the MFG was lower than that in the CG. LDH concentrations at different time points did not differ amongst groups. Immediate and 24 h CK concentrations were lower in the HFG than in the CG. The immediate and 24, 48, and 72 h knee extensions at 60°/s PT were lower in the HFG than in the CG. The immediate and 24 and 48 h knee extension at 60 °/s PT in the MFG were lower than those in the CG. The 24 h knee extension (240°/s peak torque) value in the HFG was lower than that in the CG.

Conclusion

Stimulation with 50 Hz (amplitude of 3 mm) vibration can reduce the muscle pain, IL-6 and CK concentrations and knee extension loss caused by DOMS. However, stimulation with 25 Hz (amplitude of 3 mm) vibration had poor effects. Results suggested that high-frequency vibration training is an effective strategy for relieving DOMS after intensive training.
Consumer behavior in augmented shopping reality. A review, synthesis, and research agenda
Authors: Hoffmann Stefan , Mai Robert
Published: October 2022

The application of augmented reality (AR) is receiving great interest in e-commerce, m-commerce, and brick-and-mortar-retailing. A growing body of literature has explored several different facets of how consumers react to the upcoming augmented shopping reality. This systematic literature review summarizes the findings of 56 empirical papers that analyzed consumers’ experience with AR, acceptance of AR, and behavioral reactions to AR in various online and offline environments. The review synthesizes current knowledge and critically discusses the empirical studies conceptually and methodologically. Finally, the review outlines the theoretical basis as well as the independent, mediating, moderating, and dependent variables analyzed in previous AR research. Based on this synthesis, the paper develops an integrative framework model, which helps derive directives for future research on augmented shopping reality.
Multiple Sclerosis in Children
Authors: Kwong Danny A. , Santoro Jonathan D. , Richmond Jillian M.
Published: October 2022

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a disease of the brain that renders people unable to do simple day-to-day activities. The cause of MS remains unknown. Doctors hypothesize that there is a “trigger” that makes the immune systems of people with MS overactive, causing injury to their own brains and nerves. Exposure to certain viruses and vitamin deficiencies can increase a person’s likelihood of developing MS. MS causes relatively similar symptoms in children and adults. However, there are specific differences that make the diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes of MS in children unique. Due to these differences, doctors use a special set of criteria (rules) when diagnosing children. There is no cure for MS, but treatments exist to control symptoms and prevent injury to the brain and nerves.
Effectiveness of physical barriers and enhanced fertilization in controlling predation on tilapia and catfish aquaculture systems by four piscivorous water bird families
Authors: Otieno Nickson Erick , Shidavi Erick
Published: October 2022

Waterbirds cause substantial fish-stock losses in open aquaculture systems, particularly in developing countries where fish-ponds are smaller and predator control methods largely manual or under-resourced. This study: (1) used three fish-pond treatment meassures to assess their efficiencies in deterring predation pressure by four piscivorous waterbird families in small tilapia and catfish farms in western Kenya; and (2) distinguished bird group(s) most effectively deterred by these measures. The treatment measures were: coarse-grid wire mesh barriers; finer-grid wire barriers; and enhanced pond fertilization. Twelve fish-ponds were randomly sampled to assess birds' pond-neigborhood assemblages and their predation deterrence responses to pond treatment effects. Bird species richness was not affected by pond cover status, enhanced pond fertilization or type of pond cover barrier. However, pond-cover status, singularly and interactively with enhanced fertilization, reduced bird encounter rates while cover barrier type did not. Conversely, cover status, cover barrier type and fertilization each separately but not interactively contributed to improved deterrence to bird predation rates overall. However, while predation by families of larger birds was effectively reduced by enhancing pond fertilization or cover barriers, predation by families of smaller birds was prevented only by fine-grid chicken-mesh barriers. These results demonstrate that using enhanced fertilization and physical barriers can significantly contribute to reduction in predation pressure on open-culture pond-fish by most piscivorous birds, but may not always be effective if used separately. Effectiveness of combination of measures chosen will depend on types of target bird species and their feeding habits. The results constitute additional knowledge on field techniques useful in diversifying solution options for minimizing impacts of vertebrate predation on pond-fish stocks toward promoting sustainable aquaculture production and improving rural human nutrition.
Soil carbon storage potential of acid soils of Colombia's Eastern High Plains

Published: October 2022

Improving soil organic carbon (SOC) storage enhances soil quality and mitigates climate change. Agricultural and livestock specialists increasingly view tropical grasslands as a potential target for storing more soil carbon while boosting productivity. Earlier research in the 1990s showed the promise of improving SOC storage in the Eastern High Plains of Colombia. But these studies were limited to two experimental stations, without focusing on conditions on farms or under variable management. This research examined whether those early studies did indeed reflect possibilities for improving SOC storage and livestock productivity. We measured SOC stocks at one of the experiment stations from previous research and on farms throughout the study area in Colombia's Eastern High Plains. Complementarily our team sampled other predominant land uses to map SOC storage across the nearly 1 million ha study area. Using that information, we also constructed scenarios suggesting changes in SOC and productivity based on land-use changes. The high SOC accumulation found at experimental sites in the 1990s declined 24 years later. However, SOC storage was over 27 Mg ha−1 yr−1 higher than reference native savanna sites, with an accumulation rate of 0.96 Mg ha−1 yr−1. On farms under variable management, improved pastures stored 10 Mg ha−1 more SOC than degraded pastures or native savanna. For the whole region, we estimate that carbon storage observed across soils and land use of the 1 million ha study area could store 0.08 Gt of carbon down to 1 m depth, with wide variation across the region. While the SOC measured in grasslands in the early 1990s did not persist under inadequate management over the period of two decades, the potential to accumulate SOC of Colombia's Eastern High Plains through appropriate management is high, pointing to a sustainable livestock strategy that boosts productivity and reduces emissions.

Authors: Zhang Yiqi , Li Yue , Hai Yong , Guan Li , Zhang Xinuo , Pan Aixing , Lu Hongyi , Wu Bingchao , Liu Yuzeng
Published: October 2022

Purpose

This study aims to investigate the risk factors for screw loosening after single-level posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) utilizing cortical bone trajectory (CBT) screw and establish a nomogram for predicting screw loosening.

Methods

A total of 79 patients (316 screws) who underwent single-level PLIF with CBT screw were included in the study. Preoperative, postoperative, and final follow-up demographic data, surgical data, and radiographic parameters were documented and analyzed to identify risk factors, and a predictive nomogram was established for screw loosening. The nomogram was assessed by concordance index (C-index), calibration plot, decision curve analysis (DCA), and internal validation.

Results

The incidence of screw loosening was 26.6% in 79 patients and 11.4% in 316 screws. Multifactorial regression analysis confirmed that fixed to S1 (FS1, OR = 3.82, 95% CI 1.12–12.71, P = 0.029), the coronal angle of the screw (CA, OR = 1.07, 95% CI 1.01–1.14, P = 0.039), and cortical bone contacted layers (CBCLs, OR = 0.17, 95% CI 0.10–0.29, P < 0.001) were risk factors and incorporated in the nomogram for predicting screw loosening after single-level PLIF with a CBT screw. The C-index of the nomogram was 0.877 (95% CI 0.818–0.936), which demonstrated good predictive accuracy. The calibration plot indicated an acceptable calibration of the nomogram that also had a positive benefit in guiding treatment decisions.

Conclusion

FS1, CA, and CBCLs are identified to be significant risk factors for screw loosening after single-level PLIF with the CBT technique. The nomogram we have established can be used to predict screw loosening and contribute to surgical decisions.
Comparison of mini-open, anteroinferior psoas approach and mini-open, direct lateral transpsoas approach for lumbar burst fractures: A retrospective cohort study
Authors: Pan Bin , Yu Weiyang , Lou Chao , Gao Jiawei , Huang Wenjun , He Dengwei
Published: October 2022

Objective

We evaluated the effect of a novel modified OLIF technique (anteroinferior psoas approach, AIPA) for anterior decompression reconstruction in lumbar burst fractures, and compared the clinical, radiological outcomes and approach-related complications with the mini-open, lateral transpsoas approach (LTPA).

Methods

From March 2016 to November 2019, 68 patients with lumbar burst fractures underwent one-stage monosegmental posterior/anterior surgery from L1–L4 segments. 35 patients included in AIPA and 33 patients in LTPA group underwent anterior decompression reconstruction. The clinical, radiological and functional evaluation outcomes were recorded during the 16–60 months follow-up period.

Results

At the latest follow up, neurological state of one or more ASIA grades were achieved in AIPA (90.9%) and LTPA group (94.9%). No significant differences were noted between the two groups regarding preoperative and postoperative Cobbs angle. The surgery time (192.29 vs. 230.47 min, P = 0.02) in AIPA group was better compared with LTPA. The AIPA showed better improvement on Oswestry Disability Index (43.4% vs. 60.8%, P < 0.05) and Mental Component Score (49.0% vs. 43.7%, P < 0.05) one month after surgery, but no difference at the latest follow-up. 10 patients (9 in LTPA and 1 in AIPA) experienced temporary motor deficits in hip flexor and groin or thigh numbness, which disappeared six months after surgery.

Conclusions

Compared with lateral transpsoas approach, anterior decompression reconstruction via mini-open, anteroinferior psoas approach was a safe and less invasive approach, with fewer approach-related complications in the treatment for unstable lumbar burst fractures
Application of Artificial Neural Network for Predicting the Drying Kinetics and Chemical Attributes of Linden (Tilia platyphyllos Scop.) during the Infrared Drying Process
Authors: Selvi Kemal Çağatay , Alkhaled Alfadhl Yahya , Yıldız Taner
Published: October 2022

This study analyzes the possibility of utilizing artificial neural networks (ANNs) to characterize the drying kinetics of linden leaf samples during infrared drying (IRD) at different temperatures (50, 60, and 70 °C) with sample thicknesses between 0.210 mm and 0.230 mm. The statistical parameters were constructed using several thin-layer models and ANN techniques. The coefficient of determination (R2) and root mean square error (RMSE) were utilized to evaluate the appropriateness of the models. The effective moisture diffusivity ranged from 4.13 × 10−12 m2/s to 5.89 × 10−12 m2/s, and the activation energy was 16.339 kJ/mol. The applied Page, Midilli et al., Henderson and Pabis, logarithmic, and Newton models could sufficiently describe the kinetics of linden leaf samples, with R2 values of >0.9900 and RMSE values of <0.0025. The ANN model displayed R2 and RMSE values of 0.9986 and 0.0210, respectively. In addition, the ANN model made significantly accurate predictions of the chemical properties of linden of total phenolic content (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC), DPPH, and FRAP, with values of R2 of 0.9975, 0.9891, 0.9980, and 0.9854, respectively. The validation of the findings showed a high degree of agreement between the anticipated values generated using the ANN model and the experimental moisture ratio data. The results of this study suggested that ANNs could potentially be applied to characterize the drying process of linden leaves and make predictions of their chemical contents.

Published: October 2022

¿Existe la posibilidad de una transición digital sostenible, incluyente y justa para el Sur global? En este documento de trabajo se describe cómo los antecedentes históricos, el contexto político actual y la capacidad instalada en algunos países de la región, dotan a América Latina de los elementos necesarios para explorar una transición digital centrada en un marco de derechos, avanzando hacia un futuro de mejor calidad de vida para las personas en armonía con el planeta. Se destaca que la brecha digital, ya no solo entre personas, sino entre países enteros, está incrementando las disparidades en la región, que ya es hoy la más desigual del mundo. El documento destaca cómo, de no unir esfuerzos y explorar vías alternas, la región se encaminaría hacia un futuro distópico, de vigilancia absoluta y control autoritario facilitado por la tecnología, una marcada división regional, el extractivismo de datos exacerbado y la explotación de personas y recursos, especialmente si los conflictos geopolíticos dividen las fidelidades entre China y Estados Unidos de América. El documento cierra con la posibilidad de una transformación digital propia, soberana, colaborativa, que cuente con un fuerte marco de protección de derechos fundamentales y avance progresivo de los mismos, en total armonía con el sistema universal de derechos humanos. Se destaca la relevancia de una cooperación estrecha con Europa para apoyar y ayudar a dicho proceso, hacia una transformación digital centrada en las personas, que preserve y avance derechos y contribuya a superar la crisis climática y la desigualdad.

Published: October 2022

The relevance of the article is due to the attention paid by the pedagogical community to the category of "functional literacy", the ambiguity of its interpretation in scientific research, the requirement to respond to the changing demand of society for the quality of education. Moreover, the results of a survey of practicing teachers indicate some difficulty in understanding functional literacy. The purpose of the study is to analyze conceptual approaches to defining the concept of "functional literacy" and develop a generalized model of the structural elements of functional literacy. To achieve this goal, a combination of general scientific methods was used: a descriptive method, including methods of comparison, interpretation and generalization; synchronous theoretical analysis of conceptual approaches to the definition of the concept of "functional literacy" and its components; questioning; pedagogical forecasting; modeling. As a result of the study, conceptual approaches to the definition of the concept of "functional literacy" were analyzed, the definition of the concept of "functional literacy" and its components – mathematical literacy, natural science literacy, reading literacy, financial literacy – was given. In the conclusions, the authors note that the analysis of conceptual approaches to the definition of the concept of "functional literacy" and its components contributes to the improvement of the ways and mechanisms for the formation of functional literacy of students.
Provocative Games to Encourage Critical Reflection

Published: October 2022

The SECRIOUS project takes a game-based approach to improving knowledge and attitudes in cybersecurity practices. Our methodology includes interdisciplinary Serious Game co-design with coders and aims to produce critical reflection on participants’ own coding practice. To encourage this we created a series of Small Provoking Games (SPGs) about the project’s three overarching topics (Code Security; API Security; Security Lifecycle) and five co-produced themes (Coder Practices; Code Motivation; Morality; Resources; Communication). Games and play are well-suited for creating both reflection-in-action and reflection-on-action. Provoking a lasting change in attitudes towards secure coding practice requires dialogic or inquiry-based reflection leading to transformative reflection We define a ‘provoking game’ as one that uses the techniques of reflective game design to produce cognitive and affective challenge – a eudaimonic appreciation of the player experience. This emphasises a player’s sense of purpose and aims to create exo-transformation (change in attitudes and/or practice outside the game.) SPG design foregrounded Khaled’s principles of reflective game design and was led by serious game experts, a cybersecurity expert, and a playwright, and included input from the entire SECRIOUS team to define each game’s specific focus. Two SPGs were produced: Protection (which challenges the assumption of ‘absolute’ cybersecurity protection) and Collaboration (which highlights communication in cybersecurity developer teams.) A third game is in development. SPGs feature highly exploratory gameplay, expected failure, and focus on metaphor (of both game objects and player actions) to create doubt, contradicting existing mental models and encouraging the players to question the game rules and underlying concepts. The games were used within game-jams to provoke critical discussion, a creative mindset, and group reflection. This paper analyses the design process of these two SPGs and reflects on our contribution to reflective game design.

Comparing the Student Engagement with Two Versions of a Game-based Learning Tool
Authors: Arif Zakia , Vassileva Julita , Kiron Nafisul
Published: October 2022

Research has shown that game-based learning techniques positively impact students' engagement, motivation, and learning outcomes. We performed a study to explore the differences in student engagement with a game-based learning tool implemented on two different platforms: mobile and web-based. We developed two versions of a peer-quizzing game where the students can create quiz questions related to the learning material, which their peers can attempt to answer. The students can create three types of questions: Multiple Choice Questions, True/ False, and short answers. Students from a first-year introductory programming computer class were recruited to evaluate both versions of the game during one academic term (four months) during the Covid-19 pandemic when classes were entirely online. A bonus participation mark of up to five percent of the course was offered to students who posted at least three questions per week.  In addition, we collected data about the students' in-game activities for the study duration. The Mann-Whitney U-test results show no significant difference in the engagement between the web and the game's mobile version. However, students posed more questions in the mobile version than in the Web version of the game. On the contrary, students solved more questions in the web version than in the mobile version. We have learned from the study that both game-based learning platforms effectively engage students. We also collected data about the students' experience with the game in a post-study survey. The responses show that both game versions got similar user experience ratings.
An Analysis of Population Movement from Urban to Rural Area in 2010s : Finding Net-Inflow Transition Area of Alternative Type Region
Authors:   Korean Association of Regional Sociology, Kim Ee-Sun
Published: October 2022

This study aims to position the increasing phenomenon of ‘migration from urban to rural’ in the 2010s beyond the concept of ‘returning to farming’ and in the flow of whole demographic transition. Urban-rural migration is being spotlighted as a new possibility amid the deepening population crisis in the region. However, the universality and structural stability of this phenomenon have not been confirmed. Therefore, this study revealed through a step-by-step analysis that this phenomenon is not suburbanization or not due to temporary trends, culture of minority groups, or urban development. First, the entire country was divided into urban and rural areas from the eup, myeon, and dong district units. After that, the pattern of population inflow from 2003 to 2019 was categorized. Through this, regions shows net inflow transtion were discovered in 2010's. Second, regions are categorized based on the economicdemographic features of the incoming population. Through this, alternative type regions where various populations are moving in and suburban areas located in metropolitan areas were classified. Third, it was found that regions that are alternative type regions but belong to the ‘net-inflow transition area type’ were significant in the 2010s. It is confirmed that the movement of population from urban to rural areas in the 2010s shows structural continuity and spatial expansion and is developing in various aspects.
ЭКСПЕРИМЕНТАЛЬНОЕ ОБОСНОВАНИЕ ПРИМЕНЕНИЯ КОМБИНИРОВАННЫХ БИОМАТЕРИАЛОВ ДЛЯ РЕГЕНЕРАЦИИ КОСТНОЙ ТКАНИ
Authors: Хефзоллесан С.М. , Мамедов Ф.Ю. , Мусаева Г.Г. , Мамедов А.М.
Published: October 2022

В результате нерационального протезирования и ошибок, допущенных в ходе эндодонтического и пародонтологического лечения, а также при наличии хронического воспалительного процесса, сопровождающегося локальными и системными утратами костной ткани, очень часты случаи деструктивных изменений в челюстях, широко распространенных среди населения и зачастую лежащих за пределами репаративных возможностей организма. Целью исследования является экспериментальная оценка эффективности применения различных комбинаций костнопластического материала и актовегина в процессах регенерации и восстановления костной ткани. Экспериментальные исследования были проведены in vivo на 36 самцах кроликах весом от 1,5 до 2,5кг на базе Научно-исследовательского Центра Азербайджанского Медицинского Университета. В I-ой группе, разделенной на две подгруппы, костный дефект заполняли смесью аллотрансплантата и богатого тромбоцитами фибрина PRF (подгруппа А), а в подгруппе В с этой целью в эту комбинацию добавляли актовегин; II группа – группа сравнения, на сформированный в нижней челюсти дефект накладывали смесь аутокости, богатого тромбоцитами фибрина, и актовегина; в контрольной III группе вводили богатый тромбоцитами фибрин и одновременно животным вводили внутривенно актовегин в дозе 1 мг ежедневно в течение 2 недель. На основании полученных данных можно заключить, что аутогенная кость эффективнее аллотрансплантата и вместе с PRF способствует более быстрому замещению искусственного дефекта новой костной тканью и также быстрому его заживлению. Хотя местное применение актовегина не оказывает влияния непосредственно на сам процесс формирования костной ткани, но препарат улучшает кровоснабжение в резидуальной зоне, устраняет гипоксию и тем самым создает благоприятные условия для усиления остеогенеза.

Authors: Годованець О.І. , Романюк Д.Г.
Published: October 2022

Мета дослідження. Встановити динаміку змін захисної та мінералізуючої функцій слини у вагітних жінок у різні триместри вагітності. Методи дослідження. Проведено огляд та лабораторні дослідження ротової рідини 210 вагітних жінок, у котрих визначалися рівень кальцію, фосфат-іонів уніфікованими методами за допомогою діагностичних наборів «Філісід-діагностика» та вміст sIgА методом радіальної імунодифузії у І, ІІ та ІІІ триместрах вагітності. Статистично оцінили ступінь вірогідності одержаних результатів. Наукова новизна. Спостерігається поступове зростання рівня sIgA у ротовій рідині жінок зі збільшенням терміну вагітності, зокрема вміст імуноглобуліну збільшувався на 15,09 % у ІІ триместрі та на 47,17 % – у ІІІ триместрі порівняно з даними І триместру вагітності. Виявлено тенденцію до зниження загального рівня Са у ротовій рідині жінок зі збільшенням терміну вагітності, а саме: на 9,76 % у ІІ триместрі та на 12,5 % – у ІІІ триместрі відносно даних І триместру вагітності. Коливання рівня фосфат-іонів були такими: збільшення показника на 7,42 % у ІІ триместрі вагітності з подальшим його зменшенням на 12,77 % відносно даних ІІ триместру та на 4,98 % щодо вихідних даних. На тлі помірного зниження загального рівня Са у ротовій рідині вагітних жінок зі збільшенням терміну вагітності, вміст вільного іонізованого Са зменшувався значно сильніше, зокрема на 21,92 % у ІІ триместрі та на 50,85 % у ІІІ триместрі порівняно з даними І триместру вагітності. При цьому співвідношення вільний/зв’язаний Са змінювалося з 2:1 до 1:1, що свідчить про несприятливі умови для активного перебігу процесів ремінералізації емалі та є ознакою карієсогенної ситуації в ротовій порожнині. Висновки. Встановлено зниження мінералізуючого потенціалу ротової порожнини, що прогресує зі збільшенням терміну вагітності, а також зміни у місцевих захисних реакціях, що характеризуються зростанням рівня sIgA, що свідчить про погіршення карієсогенної та пародонтогенної ситуацій у ротовій порожнині вагітних, що призводить до підвищення інтенсивності каріозного процесу та уражень тканин пародонта.

Мета дослідження. Підвищення ефективності комплексного лікування пацієнтів із патологічним прикусом на фоні порушень архітектоніки присінка рота. Методи дослідження. Обстежено та проліковано 30 хворих із патологічним прикусом та порушенням архітектоніки присінка рота (аномалії прикріплення вуздечок, наявні сполучнотканинні тяжі в ділянці присінка рота). Хворим І групи (15 осіб) проводили санацію ротової порожнини, ортодонтичне лікування знімними та незнімними конструкціями, хірургічну корекцію аномалії архітектоніки присінка рота шляхом пластики, де операційна рана загоюється вторинним натягом. Хворим ІІ групи (15 осіб) лікування доповнене запропонованою нами хірургічною корекцією тяжів шляхом проведення френулопластики та вестибулопластики, де операційна рана загоюється первинним натягом. У післяопераційному періоді призначали хлоргексединдента та генгігель згідно з інструкцією. Проводили клінічне дослідження, де основним моментом було визначення висоти прикріплення сполучнотканинних тяжів та вуздечки губи та наявності змін у тканинах пародонта, зокрема рецесій ясен. Вивчали стан операційної рани та процеси утворення післяопераційного рубця, проводили цитологічне дослідження слизової оболонки за Г.В. Банченко. Наукова новизна. У всіх пацієнтів до лікування діагностовано порушення архітектоніки присінка рота, що проявлялися високо прикріпленими тяжами в ділянці ікол, премолярів та вуздечки губи на нижній щелепі (менше 5мм); низько прикріпленими тяжами в ділянці ікол, премолярів та вуздечки губи на верхній щелепі (менше 5 мм). У хворих, де операційна рана загоювалась первинним натягом, спостерігали достовірну різницю у цитологічних характеристиках (p≤0,05) та формування нормотрофічного рубця, який не зумовлював травмуючої дії на тканини пародонта, положення окремої групи зубів. У ІІ групі хворих прослідковували достовірну різницю феномену “наповзаючого прикріплення” у порівнянні з І групою (p≤0,05). Висновки. Хірургічна корекція порушень архітектоніки присінка рота є важливим етапом комплексного лікування хворих із зубощелеповими аномаліями на фоні порушень архітектоніки присінка рота. Цитологічні характеристики слизової оболонки присінка рота і клінічні характеристики післяопераційного рубця вказують на перевагу оперативних втручань, де рана загоюється первинним натягом.

Як подолати епістемічні виклики у сучасному світі: позиція Г. Скірбека
Authors: Borysenko Elyzaveta
Published: October 2022

У статті розглянуто основні ідеї норвезького філософа Гунара Скірбека, висловлені ним у праці «Епістемічні виклики у сучасному світі», яка вийшла друком у Цюриху в 2019 р. У цей період ще широко обговорювався термін «постправда», саме тому книжка має підзаголовок: «Від «фейкових новин» та «пост-правди» до ґрунтовних епістемічних викликів у базованих на науці суспільствах ризику». Попри те, що нині активне обговорення цього терміна потроху зменшується, книжка Скірбека й досі лишається актуальною, оскільки стосується аналізу самого кризового становища в суспільстві незалежно від того, яким терміном назвуть його завтра. Відзначається, що ядром кризи сучасного світу є епістемічні проблеми, вирішення яких конче потрібне для збереження й укріплення позицій демократії. Підсумовується, що, на думку Скірбека, це можливо завдяки розвитку таких інституцій, як школа, університет і медіа, які зараз також перебувають у кризовому становищі.
Мовчання як аргумент і риторична фігура
Authors: Shcherbyna Olena , Kolotilova Nataliia
Published: October 2022

У статті розглянуто специфіку мовчання як аргументу та риторичної фігури в комунікативній практиці людини. На підставі аналізу теоретичних положень сучасних розробок у царинах логіки, риторики, теорії аргументації підкреслено варіативність феномена мовчання як аргументу (аргумент до мовчання та аргумент від мовчання) і риторичної фігури (умовчання, навмисне незавершене висловлювання оратора та пауза перед відступом). На прикладі фрагменту про жінку в Євангелії від Івана, яку спіймали на перелюбі, продемонстровано, що мовчання Ісуса як риторична фігура, реалізуючи аргументативну функцію, руйнує цілі фарисеїв та книжників. На прикладі процедури весільних церемоній християнської традиції продемонстровано обов’язковість використання мовчання як аргументу в міркуваннях її учасників. Мовчання у процесі реалізації ним аргументативної функції в стратегії дій як окремих індивідів (священника), так і соціальних груп (групи присутніх під час весільної церемонії) може розглядатись як сильний аргумент, адже він виступає невід’ємною складовою формування висновку про обґрунтованість укладення шлюбу. Базуючись на ролі, яку мовчання відіграє для кожної сторони ритуалу весільної церемонії у християнській традиції, наголошено на тому, що мовчання як аргумент виступає необхідною підставою в обґрунтуванні легітимності шлюбу або невизнання його легітимності у весільних церемоніях.
