Authors: Nemli Salih Atakan , Çakır Nemli Meryem Özge
Published: October 2023

In this study, it is aimed to assess the levels of knowledge of specialists and residents of gynecology and obstetrics in Turkey, concerning management of Hepatitis B virus (HBV)-positive pregnant women. A cross-sectional online survey study was conducted on Gynecology and Obstetrics specialists and residents between November 2019 and February 2020. Questionnaire form concerning management of HBV-positive pregnant women, which was prepared by researchers on the basis of literature, has been sent to Gynecology and Obstetrics Clinics and departments of Turkey via online means. The questionnaire form consisted of sections including socio-demographic characteristics (age group, gender, time spent as a specialist doctor/resident (years), place of work) and assessing the level of knowledge concerning the management of HBV(+) pregnant women. The questions in this section were created by the researchers based on the literature. These questions are not questions of a scale whose validity and reliability studies have been conducted. Knowledge Level Score on the management of HBV-positive pregnant women (KLS) has been calculated in a range of 0 to 18 points. Statistics Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 25.0 was used for statistical analysis. A total of 215 physicians, including 50 residents (23.3%) and 165 (76.7%) specialists, have participated in the study. Since normal distribution was not observed as a result of normality evaluation, mean values are presented as median (25%-75%). Median KLS was found as 8.0 (7.0-10.0). In residents, KLS was 8.0 (6.75-9.0), and in specialists, it was 8.0 (7.0-10.0). There was no statistically significant difference between the scores of residents and specialists. The median level of knowledge of the physicians participating in the study about Hepatitis B treatment in pregnant women was 8.0 (7.0-10.0). This score was interpreted as “inadequate” out of a maximum of 18 points, by researchers. Despite limitations, this study has shown the inadequacy of level of knowledge of gynecologists and obstetricians in Turkey concerning management of Hepatitis B in pregnant women. There is a need for further studies and continuous training of Gynecologists and Obstetricians.

Authors: Kako-Ito Shoko , Okada-Shudo Yoshiko
Published: October 2023

The differential response of the photosynthetic protein bacteriorhodopsin (bR) is highlighted as a means to emulate excitation and inhibition in neural response. We present a neuromorphic device that mimics a simple cell receptive field fabricated by patterning bR onto two transparent electrodes and sealing them with an electrolyte solution. The artificial receptive field is characterised as a bandpass filter that simultaneously emulates excitation and inhibition with a single element, requiring no bias power supply or external operating circuitry. The filter was employed to detect the Café Wall illusion, a type of orientation illusion, and demonstrated its ability to replicate the human eye’s perception using only the properties of the protein.

Robust Sample Information Retrieval in Dark-Field Computed Tomography with a Vibrating Talbot-Lau Interferometer
Authors: Haeusele Jakob , Schmid Clemens , Viermetz Manuel , Gustschin Nikolai , Lasser Tobias , Koehler Thomas , Pfeiffer Franz
Published: October 2023

X-ray computed tomography (CT) is a crucial tool for non-invasive medical diagnosis that uses differences in materials' attenuation coefficients to generate contrast and provide 3D information. Grating-based phase- and dark-field-contrast X-ray imaging is an innovative technique that utilizes refraction and small-angle scattering to generate additional co-registered images with improved contrast and microstructural information. While it is already possible to perform human chest dark-field radiography, it is assumed that its diagnostic value increases when performed in a tomographic setup. However, the susceptibility of Talbot-Lau interferometers to mechanical vibrations coupled with a need to minimize data acquisition times has hindered its application in clinical routines and the combination of the two techniques in the past.

In this work, we propose a processing pipeline to address this issue in a human-sized clinical dark-field CT system. We present the corrective measures that have to be applied in the employed processing and reconstruction algorithms to mitigate the effects of vibrations and deformations of the interferometer gratings. This is achieved by identifying and mitigating spatially and temporally variable vibrations in the interferometer. By exploiting correlations in the modular grating setup, we can identify relevant fluctuation modes and separate the fluctuation and sample information, enabling vibration-artifact free sample reconstruction.

Authors: Vezeris Dimitrios
Published: October 2023

This paper presents the intricate architectural design and operational capabilities of the Autonomous multi-factor Energy Flow Controller (AmEFC) in managing energy flow within microgrids. Central to its function, the AmEFC Controller harmonizes software computations with hardware interfacing to guarantee optimal energy flow and system reliability. Notably, it factors in weather forecasting for predictive energy management and allows city-scale intercommunication between local AmEFC controllers for efficient energy surplus exchange. The framework is structured hierarchically, incorporating diverse energy sources and storage mechanisms, dynamic load management, supplemental energy, and advanced decision-making systems. A unique innovation lies in its adaptive response to surplus energy, directing it into gravitational potential energy via hydro pumps. The Simulink model of the on-grid AmEFC microgrid prototype is introduced, representing the integration of renewable energy sources, storage systems, and critical load distribution. Through scenario analysis in the Simulink model, the paper assesses the system's reliability in consistently powering critical loads and its strategy in managing surplus energy. Conclusively, the AmEFC system emerges as a promising solution for future resilient, adaptable, and efficient microgrids, further empowered by its predictive and collaborative capabilities.

African Principles on the Law Applicable to International Commercial Contracts
Authors:   University of Johannesburg, Neels Jan L
Published: October 2023

This booklet contains the first draft of the envisaged African Principles on the Law Applicable to International Commercial Contracts. The proposal could be used by national legislators on the continent and African economic integration organisations, particularly the African Union, in, respectively, domestic legislation and regional or supranational laws of a soft or binding nature. The existence of a reliable transnational legal infrastructure in respect of international commercial law, including commercial private international law, is a prerequisite for investor confidence, inclusive economic growth, sustainable development, and the ultimate alleviation of poverty on the African continent. The instrument may contribute to sustainable growth on a long-term basis. The regulation of private international law of contract is essential to the further development of the African Continental Free Trade Area. Jan L Neels is professor of private international law and director of the Research Centre for Private International Law in Emerging Countries at the University of Johannesburg.
СРАВНЕНИЯ В СИСТЕМЕ ВЫРАЗИТЕЛЬНЫХ СРЕДСТВ ПОЭЗИИ АХМАДА СУЛЕЙМАНОВА
Authors: Исраилова Л.А.-Г.
Published: October 2023

Сравнение как один из основных стилистических приёмов играет важную роль в поэзии исследователя-краеведа, народного учителя, народного поэта, художника, музыканта Ахмада Сулейманова. В данной статье по структурным признакам, по устойчивости и по степени образности выявлены и проанализированы различные типы сравнений в творчестве поэта. Приводя примеры из его поэтического сборника «Избранные», автором статьи показана возможная классификация сравнительных конструкций и определена их функциональная нагрузка. Подобный анализ средств выразительности, а именно сравнений, малоисследованная область в чеченской поэзии, нельзя недооценивать важность изучения этого пласта в богатейшем мире изобразительных средств. Возможно, подобные работы будут важны при изучении чеченского языка в школе. Как было сказано ранее, проблема, о которой идет речь в статье, изучена мало, поэтому классификация разрядов сравнений, взятых из сборника «Избранные» Ахмада Сулейманова является фундаментом для дальнейшего изучения средств выразительности в творчестве чеченских поэтов и писателей. Научная новизна статьи в том, что в ней показаны направления, способные предупредить круг поиска молодыми исследователями в области средств выразительности, которые представляют собой как поэтический, так и читательский интерес.

Published: October 2023

The process of modeling global economic systems provides an understanding of the main economic dependencies, just as, for example, an airplane model helps to understand the basics of flight theory. The construction of mathematical models of global economic systems in the conditions of the modern economy is used in order to be able to streamline the system of economic information, to find shortcomings in the information that is already available, to develop requirements for its correction or preparation of a new one. With the help of a model, which is a representation of an object, system or idea in a form different from the original, it becomes possible, without taking into account the secondary signs of any phenomenon, to reproduce the essential ones.
