Relationship among the Change of Direction Ability, Sprinting, Jumping Performance, Aerobic Power and Anaerobic Speed Reserve: A Cross-Sectional Study in Elite 3x3 Basketball Players
Authors: Mikołajec Kazimierz , Gabryś Tomasz , Gryko Karol , Prończuk Magdalena , Krzysztofik Michał , Trybek Grzegorz , Maszczyk Adam
Published: January 2023

The main purpose of this study was to determine the relationships among sprinting performance, change of direction ability (COD), change of direction deficit (CODD), and aerobic power expressed by maximal oxygen velocity (VmaxIFT), anaerobic speed reserve (ASR) as well as jumping performance (countermovement jump with (CMJa) and without an arm swing (CMJ)) in elite 3x3 basketball players. A total of 15 Polish Olympic 3x3 team players (age: 26.86 ± 8.28 years; body height: 191 ± 5.33 cm; body mass: 90.68 ± 10.03 kg, basketball experience: 15.53 ± 5.8 years) participated in the study. Athletes were tested for the following measures: the linear speed at the first section (5 m), the second section (9 m), the third section (10 m) and total distance (24 m), two sets; the 30-15 Intermittent Fitness Test (first session); COD speed by the Change of Direction and Acceleration Test (CODAT) (the same sections and total distance as in the linear speed test), five repetitions, two sets; and jumping performance by the CMJ with and without an arm swing (second session). CODD was calculated by subtracting the COD speed time from linear speed time at adequate sections and total distance. Maximal sprinting speed (MSS), maximal aerobic velocity (VmaxIFT), and anaerobic speed reserve (ASR) were also considered. Anaerobic Speed Reserve (ASR) was calculated as the difference between MSS and VmaxIFT. A Pearson’s correlation test was used to determine the relationship between power-speed-related variables and CODD, final velocity attained at the 30-15 Intermittent Fitness Test (VmaxIFT), ASR, and COD performance. Moderate to strong correlations were registered between COD and linear speed at 5, 10, and 24 m, while moderate to strong negative correlations were detected between COD, CODD, and CMJ, CMJa. Moreover, moderate to strong correlations were observed between COD, CODD, and VmaxIFT, MSS at 9, 10, and 24 m sprints. No relationship was detected between COD, CODD, LS, and ASR in any measured sector. Finally, statistically significant differences were registered in COD and CODD between trial 1 and trial 2.
Effects of Arm Dominance and Decision Demands on Change of Direction Performance in Handball Players
Authors: Fasold Frowin , Braun Alexander , Klatt Stefanie
Published: January 2023

This field study investigated the effect of unilateral dominance (handedness of players) on the change of direction speed in a specific cutting manoeuvre with a ball (in the direction of the throwing arm vs. against the direction of the throwing arm) in team handball. In addition, the effect of a cutting manoeuvre in response to an immediate stimulus compared to one planned in advance on the movement speed was analysed. Forty participants (22 male, 18 female, Mage 23 years) performed change of direction actions to the left and the right side (the direction of the throwing arm vs. against the direction of the throwing arm) under planned and reactive (light as visual stimuli) conditions. Change of direction speed was measured post-hoc by video-analyses. The results showed two effects. First, the decision demand in reaction to a visual stimulus reduced the speed in the change of direction compared to the planned action. Second, participants performed their action faster in the direction of the throwing arm than against it. The results replicate the effects of decision demands of previous studies and regardless of the reaction to the stimuli being unspecific, further studies could investigate if specific training can reduce the speed loss due to decision demands. The lateral speed differences of cutting manoeuvres of handball players have been analysed for the first time in this study. This effect could have several causes (e.g., coordination, power, motivation) which should be investigated in future studies in more detail.
Impacts of Agritourism Revenues on Farm Incomes in 2004–2020 – The V4 Experience
Authors: Bacsi Zsuzsanna , Szálteleki Péter
Published: January 2023

The present paper analyses the relationship between farm incomes and farm involvement in agritourism activities in four countries of the Visegrád Group (V4) in comparison to the European Union. The analysis is based on the Farm Accountancy Data Network database of the EU for 2004–2020, and applies descriptive statistics, correlations, and multivariate panel regression analysis. Results show that the larger share of agritourism within gross farm income is associated with lower family farm income per family worker, and this is particularly true for larger farms. This means that in area of the Visegrád Group agritourism is more important in farms with worse profitability and more in need of additional incomes while in the rest of the EU countries an opposite tendency prevails. The paper empirically assesses a rather long time period, focusing on the four countries of the Visegrád Group compared to the rest of the EU member states and it measures the impact of agritourism revenues on various measures of farm income. Agritourism profitability has been assessed by hundreds of papers but the present paper compares agritourism profitability to that of traditional agriculture, and assesses a much longer time period than earlier research.
Relevance of Trees and Forests to Sustainable Development: Perspectives of Key Rural Actors in Selected Communities, Ghana
Authors: Mensah Justice , Awabil Godwin , Graham Alberta Yaa , Mensah Aba Nyameyie
Published: January 2023

In consonance with the universal quest for sustainable development, the United Nations (UN) declared 17 global goals in 2015 known as the sustainable development goals (SDGs). Scholarly literature has highlighted the relevance of trees and forests (TFs) to this quest from various perspectives. However, the perspectives appear elitist, as they tend to exclude those of some seemingly ordinary but actually crucial actors whose activities directly affect the growth, health, and population of TFs, namely small-scale farmers, chainsaw operators, and artisanal miners operating particularly in rural areas in developing countries. The study examined the excluded perspectives of the said actors in selected rural comminutes in Ghana on the relevance of TFs to SD. The study was guided by the SDGs in its data collection, analysis, and reporting approach. Focus group discussions were held with the farmers and miners, while in-depth interviews were held with the chainsaw operators. The actors‘ perspectives generally indicated that TFs were relevant to seven, not relevant to six, and somehow relevant to four of the 17 SDGs. Although the actors saw TFs as important for SD, they (actors) were not favourably disposed to tree-planting for purposes of land restoration because they saw TFs as renewable resources with natural regenerative capacity. Stronger advocacy and more intensive sensitization by the central and local governments, forestry commission, and other pro-environmental organisations, institutions, and agencies on the importance of growing, nurturing, and conserving TFS for SD are recommended. Furthermore, the government should enforce regulations to stop the destruction of TFs by the actors to ensure a sustainable green environment for sustainable development.
EXPLORING THE ROLES AND FUNCTIONS OF THE CIVIL

IN ROMANIA. RECRUITMENT, TRAINING AND EVALUATION OF
PRISON POLICE OFFICERS BETWEEN 2009-2021
Authors: COSTEA Vladimir-Adrian
Published: January 2023

In this article, we analyze the regulation of the special status of the civil servant in the penitentiary system in
relation to the dynamics of recruitment, training, evaluation, and research of the human resource in the detention units in
Romania between 2009-2021. With the help of the case study analysis and the empirical research carried out in 22
penitentiaries, on which occasion we interacted and interviewed a number of 74 penitentiary police officers (directors,
surveillance officers, educators, psychologists, priests), we identified the representations of the prison police officers
regarding the life in the detention units. This research highlights the staff shortages and the low level of training, evaluation,
and research of civil servants with special status, an aspect that indicates a strong tendency to preserve roles and statuses
in the penitentiary system. The prison management remains anchored in the objectives of reducing overcrowding and
improving working conditions and deprivation of liberty, while the objective of mode
To reach sustainable justice with Millennials: example of Ukraine
Authors: KHOTYNSKA-NOR Oksana , IZAROVA Iryna
Published: January 2023

Sustainable development became an essential part of our world since we realized
the fragility and limits of our system, dangerous of resource exhaustion, and insistently
looking for the way to stabilyze our life and life of our descendents, to restrict risks of
collapses. Last years’ catastrophes – the pandemic of COVID-19 and the war in Ukraine,
both are still existed, show us undoubtedly that we have to be more careful using our
resources and develop our relations in economics and politics. In this article authors made
an attempt to reconsider the approaches to understanding judiciary in Ukraine, using the
new coordinates – generation born since 1980 till 1996 so called Millennials (generation Y),
dictating new requests to life, and, in our opinion, to justice and judiciary development.
Analysis of the impact of Millennials (generation Y) on the development of the judicial system
is a complex process for a number of reasons. First, the lack of formal information about the
age of the parties makes it impossible to substantiate the conclusions with empirical data.
Secondly, despite some generalized traits, the characteristics of Millennials differ depending
on the region and country of origin, which determines their economic, social, political, and
cultural differences A striking example of this are the ex-Soviet Union’s states. In majority
of these countries, Millennials have become the first generation sufficiently aware of their
rights, the legal ways to protect them and the role of the court as an effective tool for such
protection. Their formation was accompanied by the changes in ideology, political regime
and economic instability. In this article authors argue how Millennials change the judiciary
in the ex-Soviet society, taking into account the specifics of the latter. The study suggests two
interrelated aspects: the impact of Millennials on the development of the court as consumers
of judicial services; the impact of Millennials, who come to work in the judicial system, as
judges. The article substantiates the necessity of modernization of the courts, which is
associated with the high technology of this generation and its vital need for information, as
well as their consumerization aimed to create more sustainability justice and to answer the
request of Millennials by changes of goals, by limits of expenses and by introducing the
culture of peaceful and strong institutions in judiciary.

Rendering personifications in the 19th century French translations of Mikhail Lermontov’s novel “A Hero of Our Time”
Authors: Solovyeva E. A.
Published: January 2023

Metaphor is often viewed as a controversial research problem and is, undoubtedly, one of the greatest challenges in translation. As a type of metaphor, personification is a common literary device and the way of understanding and representing reality. In this paper, the author tries to provide a descriptive study of the translators’ choices used for rendering the personifications in the translations of Mikhail Lermontov's novel “A Hero of Our Time”. The current scrutiny is based on five French translations made during the 19th century by A. A. Stolypin (1843), J. - M. Chopin (1853), E. Scheffter (1855), X. Marmier (1856), and A. de Villamarie (1884). Comparative semantic and functional approach constitutes the framework for the study and aims at describing and analyzing the translators’ choices. The typology of metaphor translation strategies suggested by R. Van den Broek completes the methodological basis. The back translation serves for a more explicit illustration of the acquired data. Our analysis shows that in most cases translators convey personification rather successfully. However, the translators’ choices and resulting interpretations are likely to vary markedly. Along with that, the rendering personifications by a non-metaphorical expression are another quite well marked mode of translation, whilst the rephrasing by similes is of infrequent occurrence and is the least exploited one. The analysis of translations which are made at the periods close in time to the creation of the original is of undoubtedly scientific interest, because it conduces to better understanding of individual translator’s decisions in relation to a historical and social context and offers interesting prospects for ulterior retrospective comparative study. The author intends to continue a more in-depth consideration of this problem in further researches.
“Drink for the soul”: coffee tree and coffee as a symbol of the Arab national mentality
Authors: Kukhareva E. V.
Published: January 2023

In the complex geopolitical situation of the beginning of the 21 century and with the change of the vector of interests towards the countries of the East, attention to all aspects of the life of the peoples of these countries is increasing due to the urgent need to understand their cultures, lifestyle, and the world around them. These peoples are increasingly active in the international arena, their role in various fields is becoming more noticeable, and it is important to interact with them at various levels. To do this, it is necessary to know what this people lives by, what their priority is, what is important or secondary for them. The complexity of intercultural communication lies in the fact that the national character and mentality of representatives of different linguistic cultures is based on the existing realities of a particular people’s life, its moral values and attitudes, through which various ethnic communities identify themselves and fix their place and purpose in this world. Symbols and images reflecting these ideas take either a material or verbal shell and convey an ethnic picture of the world of a particular people, which is completely different from the ideas of other ethnic groups about what surrounds them. To understand a representative of another linguistic consciousness, mastering the vocabulary and grammar of a foreign language may not be accurate enough. Significant elements of language in their semantic part also contain an extra-linguistic component, the socalled background knowledge, which can be gleaned from the history, mythology, literature, folklore of the people with whom we are interacting. This extra-linguistic component, according to the author, is of great importance for understanding the national mentality and national character. It helps to identify other driving forces of the actions of different peoples in the process of intercultural communication, along with their political and economic interests. In this article, the author considers one of the symbols of the national mentality of the Arabs – the coffee tree and its derivative – a coffee drink, which plays an important role in creating a national collective portrait of the Arabic society, as well as makes an attempt to show how and why they occupied such an important place in the Arab national consciousness.
Experience in annotating connectives in Japanese text – lessons and prospects
Authors: Chironov S. V.
Published: January 2023

This paper offers an overview of an attempt to annotate a text in Japanese with the aim of pointing out all possible connections between elementary chunks of discourse, and the connective devices marking them. Being the first experience in Japanese, it asks for a certain adjustment of the annotation rules already used in the existing schools. This primarily touches upon what entities are connected and also upon the definition of a connective. Furthermore, semantic areas covered by connectives also need correction if reviewed through an in-depth analysis of the speaker’s intentions. The obstacles met while carrying out the annotation, and the pervasive patterns revealed, focus around two linguistic factors. On the one hand, structural specifics of the Japanese language cause the speaker to forego multiple transformations warping the surface structure in order to attain linear development of his line of discourse. On the other hand, the genre of the linguistic material (a lecture in tourism marketing) is largely accountable for dominating Causality and Discourse Deployment areas of connectives. It is through those that a higher level of pragmatic motivation is achieved in the explicit markers of the text structure – which turns out crucial in making the speech more persuasive.

Authors: Gangadharan Charitha , Krishnan Lakshmi , Kakileti Siva Teja , Collison Sathiakar , Singh Akshita , Bhat Venkatraman , Bansal Richa , Aggarwal Bharat , Manjunath Geetha
Published: January 2023

Background:

Invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) of the breast is the most common type of breast cancer in women. Imaging by mammography and/or ultrasonography and histo-pathological examination are collectively used to confirm a diagnosis of IDC. However, the standard imaging modalities are resource intensive and hence, have limited feasibility in resource-limited countries. Thermalytix, an affordable, radiation-free test is a novel Artificial Intelligence (AI)-powered breast cancer detection tool that has shown effectiveness in detecting breast cancer in both symptomatic and asymptomatic women.

Case Presentation:

We describe two cases of symptomatic women who, on Thermalytix, were identified with a lesion suspicious of malignancy and confirmed as IDC on further evaluation by standard of care imaging and tissue diagnosis.

Conclusion:

Thermalytix, a new AI-based computer diagnostic solution (Computer diagnostic solution), has the potential to identify breast malignancies such as IDC.
Spontaneous idiopathic hemi-diaphragmatic paralysis: case report
Authors: Akpoviroro Ogheneyoma , Freiwald Jeremy
Published: January 2023

Background: The diaphragm is a major muscle of respiration that is innervated by the phrenic nerve. Dysfunction of this muscle could lead to respiratory failure of varying degrees, depending on whether the bilateral diaphragms or a unilateral diaphragm (i.e., hemidiaphragm) are affected. Such respiratory dysfunction could be so severe as to result in symptomatic hypercapnia requiring medical and/or surgical intervention for amelioration. Diaphragmatic paralysis occurs when underlying pathology results in a failure of the phrenic nerve to control diaphragmatic function; however, in some cases, there are no known precipitating pathologic etiologies. Diaphragmatic paralysis is an uncommon presentation in the clinical setting that often leads to delayed diagnosis.
Case Presentation: This report depicts a case of acute-onset dyspnea due to spontaneous idiopathic hemidiaphragm paralysis. A 71-year-old Caucasian man presented via telemedicine to his primary care physician with complaints of dyspnea ongoing for 2 days. The patient subsequently underwent multiple tests, including a course of antibiotics, multiple imaging studies, and several visits to the emergency department. Despite extensive lab and imaging studies, the diagnosis of hemi-diaphragmatic paralysis was delayed for several months before a final diagnosis by the pulmonary medicine clinic.
Conclusion: This case portrays the significance of looking deeper beyond the typical cardiopulmonary etiologies in patients with unexplained acute dyspnea. It specifically highlights the importance of working up the respiratory muscles, especially the diaphragm, as the possible origin of acute unexplained dyspnea so as not to significantly delay diagnosis.

Karla Dedeciusa portret podwójny. O tłumaczu poezji polskiej i autorze refleksji o literaturze
Authors: Łazarska Danuta
Published: January 2023

The aim of this article is to portray Karl Dedecius, a translator of Polish poetry and author of reflections on literature. The picture of the connoisseur and lover of Polish works is accompanied by parallel reflections on Dedecius as a person, his double biography, the role he played in dealing with the works of Polish writers as well as the influence of literature on him. The reflections are based, among other things, on the research into Dedecius’essays, lectures, his autobiography and his correspondence with Tadeusz Różewicz. The proposed considerations and the types of documents mentioned – which contain a wealth of information about the translator’s private life, e.g. his preferred values, hi views on interpersonal relations, and his professional life, e.g. his passion for translating literature, its influence on building positive relations between nations – are related to selected elements of the theory and methodology of biographical research.
Are Japanese Blood Different?: A Study on the Blood Type and Ethnicity of Takeji Furukawa
Authors:   The Korean Association For Japanese History, Kang Tae-Woong
Published: January 2023

The blood type discovered in 1901 was used as a sign of racial characteristics, as it was found that it had hereditary in 1910. In conjunction with eugenics, there was a tendency to perceive that the difference between Westerners‘ blood type characteristics was a criterion for determining superiority and inferiority, leading to research that divided Japanese and their neighbors. This paper examined the ‘scientific’ movement to define the Japanese through blood type as well as the popularity of eugenics discourse in Japan since the late 1920s. Tanemoto Furuhata, a researcher who represented Japanese blood type studies before and after the war, surveyed 300,000 people and measured the results with the biochemical race index made in Germany. Furuhata used the results to emphasize the differences between the surrounding peoples, ignoring the big differences from the West, and argued that the Japanese blood was “different” from the neighbours.
On the other hand, based on the biochemical race index and the research results of Tanemoto Furuhata, Takeji Furukawa created blood type and personality discourse, while at the same time creating an argument that blood type and personality discourse could measure temperament in a group, that was, an ethnic unit. This paper found that his blood type and personality discourse was closely related to blood type and racist discourse, and that personality discourse was also used as a mechanism to overcome Japanese enthusiasm in racist discourse and discriminate Japanese from other ethnic groups. Takeji Furukawa's blood type and personality discourse had been criticized by academia, but on the contrary, it had received enthusiastic support from the public. It can also be seen that academia in Japan before the war also continued to study blood types with such personality discourse in mind.
Although Tanemoto Furuhata and Takeji Furukawa had different specialties in forensic science on one side and psychology and pedagogy on the other, the two continued to have something in common in terms of trying to find the characteristics of the Japanese people through blood types. The two used common statistical data, and this paper found that they were similar in the direction of trying to reveal the existence of a unique blood type for Japanese based on a nationalistic perspective in analyzing the data.

Authors: Nahorna Diana
Published: January 2023

The article reveals the concept of volunteering and the involvement of volunteers. The author highlights the state of volunteering among young people and socio-political conditions to develop the volunteer movement in Ukraine. The research relevance of volunteer involvement was manifested. In order to find effective ways to involve young people in volunteering, the legislative documents and theoretical and practical materials on the topic of involving volunteers in Ukraine were analyzed and compared. The article deduced individual stages of involving young people in volunteering. Among them: setting goals for recruitment; recruitment planning; preparation of a recruitment and communication campaign; implementation of a recruitment and communication campaign; selection of volunteers; monitoring and evaluating recruitment; studying volunteers, adapting to volunteering conditions; joining a volunteer’s community, monitoring, and evaluation of involvement volunteers.

Based on the analysis of foreign sources and individual stages of involvement, two technologies for attracting volunteers have been identified: the technology of recruiting volunteers and the technology of volunteer involvement. Relevant diagrams and tables were visualized due to the results of theoretical research. The emphasis of the article is on the technology of recruiting volunteers, which was tested and shown its effectiveness and flexibility in the activities (BUR camps for young volunteers in Ukraine) of the program «Building Ukraine Together» of the charity organization «Ukrainian educational platform» during the 2021. The technology combines social science, digital technologies, and marketing innovations. The main functions of recruitment technology are highlighted and explained.

A social and pedagogical work in the field of health: the Canadian experience
Authors: Stadnyk Volodymyr , Blavt Oksana
Published: January 2023

The article deals with the issue of social work in the field of health care. An attempt was made to comprehensively analyze the peculiarities of social work concerning health care in Canada. The purpose of the work is to identify the basics of social work related to health care in Canada and to outline ways of implanting experience in Ukraine. It is noted that the United Nations identifies Canada as "the best country in the world to live in", where the health of citizens is considered a social indicator. It was found that now in Canada social work has become an integral component of the field of health care. The results of the analysis of the current state of social work in health care in Canada indicate that the system of social work in the field of health care in the studied country meets the requirements of the time and follows global trends in the development of the industry. It is positioned as a unique type of professional activity to create social conditions for the health of an individual and increase the well-being of the population in general. It has been studied that the basis of social work in the field of health care in Canada is the system of social protection of the population, education, health care, social services for young people, specialized institutions, and institutions. It was revealed that one of the most important trends in the state of social work regarding health care in Canada is an emphasis on the concept of a new vision of health, which involves the creation of appropriate conditions in society, the promotion of the development of necessary life skills, the participation of communities, the development of the system of providing services in the field of health care health, etc. It was found that there are professional organizations of social work in the studied country, which determine the standards of the industry and the main vectors of training and development of relevant specialists in the field of health care. It has been established that the prevailing idea in Canada is that health is a broader concept than is traditionally believed. It was determined that the greatest focus should be on lifestyle, given that the greatest potential for improving health lies in engaging Canadians in healthy lifestyles. As a result, it was established that the experience of the functioning of the Canadian social work system regarding health care is very useful for Ukraine and can be applied after its appropriate adaptation to Ukrainian realities.

Studies have shown that coronavirus disease (COVID-19) preventive measures and regular physical activity are essential for reducing disease risk. As such, utilizing the health belief model (HBM) framework, this cross-sectional study aimed to assess the association between sociodemographic and social-cognitive explored factors with physical activity and COVID-19 preventive behaviors in a nationally represented sample of 871 Indonesian adults. The Global Physical Activity Questionnaire was used to assess physical activity levels. The COVID-19 preventive behaviors and the social-cognitive factors were measured using instruments adapted from the WHO-COVID-19 Snapshot Monitoring and based on the HBM framework. Logistic regression was used to evaluate the association between the outcomes and each potential correlate, adjusted for potential confounders. The results showed that women were more likely to engage in sufficient COVID-19 preventive behaviors, while older adults were less likely to be physically active. Participants with high social-cognitive processes were also more likely to engage in sufficient COVID-19 preventive behaviors and be physically active. The perceived barrier, however, was not associated with COVID-19 preventive practices. The findings support using the HBM in understanding COVID-19 preventive and physical activity behaviors. Interventions to improve COVID-19 preventive practices in this target population should focus more on men, while physical activity promotion should focus more on older adults.

Self-Concept and the Role of Women in Technical Operational Work (Phenomenological Study of Female Team Leaders at Telkom Akses Jakarta Utara)
Authors: Pratama Raditya Wisnu
Published: January 2023

Menurut Mansour Fakih, konsep gender dipahami sebagai sifat yang melekat pada laki-laki dan perempuan yang dikonstruksi secara sosial dan budaya. Misalnya, wanita dikenal lemah, cantik, dan emosional. Sedangkan laki-laki sering dianggap kuat, perkasa, dan rasional. Sedangkan tenaga teknis operasional identik dengan jenis kelamin tertentu. Tidak hanya terkait gender, para pekerja teknis operasional juga seringkali dituntut untuk bekerja di luar ruangan dalam berbagai kondisi cuaca dimana mereka harus memiliki kondisi fisik yang prima, dan bagi pekerja perempuan, teknis operasional bukanlah pekerjaan yang tepat. Untuk keperluan penelitian ini, perempuan pekerja teknis operasional di Telkom Akses Jakarta Utara diamati menggunakan kerangka teori sudut pandang Sandra Harding dan Julia T Wood yang menyatakan bahwa tidak semua perempuan memiliki sudut pandang yang sama.

Hawkins sign of the knee: Imaging appearance and clinical implication of an unusual pattern of disuse osteopenia
Authors: Adams Nicholas C. , Alonge Robin L. , Edmonds Lance D.
Published: January 2023

Disuse osteopenia (DO) is a disorder due to reduced weight-bearing often following immobilization injuries. It is most commonly observed in the ankles and knees and is believed to be due primarily to increased bone reabsorption associated with disuse. Both traditional radiography and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging are useful in identifying abnormalities associated with DO. Specifically, linear subchondral osteopenia has been given the term “Hawkins sign” when seen in the talus, but this finding may also be seen elsewhere. When present, it not only is an indication of DO but also indicates the presence of sufficient vascular flow, and the unlikely development of avascular necrosis. We report a case of Hawkins sign of the knee demonstrated on radiography and MR and demonstrate the clinical importance of recognizing this sign, outside its usual setting, in assessing the prognosis of a healing fracture.

In the United States, gunshot wounds (GSWs) have become a critical public health concern with substantial annual morbidity, disability, and mortality. Vascular injuries associated with GSW may pose a clinical challenge to the physicians in the emergency department. Patients demonstrating hard signs require immediate intervention, whereas patients with soft signs can undergo further diagnostic testing for better injury delineation. Although digital subtraction angiography is the gold standard modality to assess vascular injuries, non-invasive techniques such as Doppler ultrasound, computed tomography angiography, and magnetic resonance angiography have evolved as appropriate alternatives. This article discusses penetrating bodily vascular injuries, specifically ballistic and stab wounds, and the corresponding radiological presentations.

Electron and Ion Transport in Semi-Dilute Conjugated Polyelectrolytes: View from a Quantum-Mechanically Informed Coarse-Grained Model
Authors: Friday David , Jackson Nicholas
Published: January 2023

Conjugated polyelectrolytes (CPEs) are a rising class of organic mixed ionic-electronic conductors, with applications in bio-interfacing electronics and energy harvesting and storage devices. Here, we employ a quantum mechanically informed coarse-grained model coupled with semiclassical rate theory to generate a first view of semidilute CPE morphologies and their corresponding ionic and electronic transport properties. We observe that the poor solvent quality of CPE backbones drives the formation of electrostatically repulsive fibers capable of forming percolating networks at semi- dilute concentrations. The thickness of the fibers and the degree of network connectivity are found to strongly influence the electronic mobilities of the morphologies. Calculated structure factors reveal that fiber formation alters the position and scaling of the inter-chain PE peak relative to good solvent predictions and induces a narrower distribution of interchain spacings. We also observe that electrostatic interactions play a significant role in determining CPE morphology, but have only a small impact on the local site energetics. This work presents a significant step forward in the ability to predict CPE morphology and ion-electron transport properties, and provides insights into how morphology influences electronic and ionic transport in conjugated materials.
الحداثة العربية وموقفها من السنة النبوية
Authors: Ahmed Yousif
Published: January 2023

ظهرت فرق واتجاهات كثيرة باسم الإسلام, واختلف آراؤهم حول المواضيع المختلفة, فمن هذه الاتجاهات: الفكر الحداثي, الذي ظهر في أول مرة في فرنساً سعياً لسقوط الكنيسة, وكل ما يتعلق بالدين, والدعوة إلى الأنسنة, فجعل الإنسان مقياس كل شيء, ومقدم على المعتقدات الدينية, ومن ثمَّ ظهر الحداثة في العالم العربي, فاقتدوا بالغرب في التعامل مع النصوص الدينية, فقاموا بتطبيق مناهج الحداثة الغربية على النصوص الإسلامية من كتاب وسنة, وهذا البحث يلقي الضوء على الفكر الحداثي العربي, من حيث نشأته وخصائصه, ومن ثمّ موقفه من السنة النبوية وأدواتهم في ذلك, من خلال نقدهم للمنهج القديم في التعامل مع السنة النبوية, ووضعه بدائل لقراءة السنة النبوية, وكما نبيّن آثار هذا الفكر على الواقع الإسلامي الإيجابية منها والسلبية, فهذا البحث محاولة جادّة لمناقشة بعض موقفهم للسنة النبوية.
COMMERCIAL BANK FINANCING AND DEVELOPMENT OF CROP PRODUCTION IN NIGERIA
Authors: Saka Kamilu Adio , Aladelusi Kehinde Banjo
Published: January 2023

This study evaluates both short-run and long-run impacts of credit financing facilities provided by commercial banks on crop production development in Nigeria from 1981 to 2020. The study adopts ex post-facto research design and obtains data on the study variables from Central Bank of Nigeria Statistical Bulletin and World Bank Development Indicators. Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model approach was employed as an estimation technique. The outcome of the analysis produces significant negative effect of commercial banks loans and advances on crop production development in the short run. In the long run, however, commercial banks loans and advances and labour employment in agriculture sector exert significant positive impact on crop production development in Nigeria. The researchers conclude that commercial banks credit financing significantly increase contribution of agriculture to Nigeria gross domestic product in the long-run while it reduces crop productivity in the short-run.
