Authors: Andriichuk T. , Skoreiko A. , Kuvshynov O.
Published: January 2022

Goal. To determine the species pathogens composition of sunflower diseases and to study the dynamics of development of the most harmful in the conditions of the western Forest-Steppe of Ukraine.

Methods. The research was carried out during 2018—2019 in the research field of the Ukrainian Scientific Research Station on Plant Quarantine of Institute of Plant Protection using laboratory (pathogen identification) and field (examination of sunflower crops with sampling of plant material) methods.

Results. Since the 1940s, the sunflower area in Ukraine has increased almost in 10 times: from 669 thousand hectares in 1939 to 5034 thousand hectares in 2017. The main crops — 75—80% are located in the steppe, and about 20% — in the Forest-Steppe zone. The sunflower crops are moving further to the west of Ukraine, where its areas increased in 2015—2017 by 1.7—6.4 times with large-scale climate change. However, the instability of weather conditions in this region and violations of the rules of agricultural technology lead to the defeat of sunflower plants by diseases of various etiologies. Researches studying the development of fungal diseases of sunflower have shown that the threat to crops was: embelizia (plant damage in the yellow basket phase was 73.3—100% with the development of the disease 36.7—75.5%); Alternaria (plant damage was 100% with the development of the disease 45—65.0%), verticillium wilt — the number of affected plants reached 35%, rust — for 100% of the affected plants, the intensity of sunflower damage was 3 points (for 5 score scale); the prevalence of phomosis and phomopsis for two years did not exceed 43.5%, and development — 15.4%.

Conclusions. The most common during the study period (2018—2019) were: Alternaria alternata (Fr.Fr) Keissl.), embelizia (Alternaria helianthi Tub. et Nish.), verticillium wilt Verticillium albo-atrum Reinke et Berthold, V. dahliae Kleb., phomoses (Phoma oleraceae var. helianthi Sacc.) and phomopsis (Phomopsis helianthi Munt.Cvet. et al) in the western region of the Forest-Steppe of Ukraine.

Published: January 2022

Biofilms are communities that contain one or multiple microorganisms that enclosed in extracellular polymeric substance (EPS) matrix Biofilm formation is one of important survival skills for bacteria to be able to grow in all surfaces, such as living tissues, medical devices, industrial water piping, shipping, and natural aquatic system. It is recognized as the important virulence factor and protection for bacteria from environment influences. Bizionia paragorgiae, which produced orange pigment, was examined in this research. In this research, antibacterial, antibiofilm activity, and stability assay were examined. There was no antibacterial activity indicated from this study against all tested Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. Based on antibiofilm activity against four pathogenic bacteria, both destruction and inhibition assay reduced biofilm formation by up to 30-70%. According to the result revealed from stability assay, the pigment was more stable at its natural pH 5.83, at 25 °C, and stored in dark condition.

Published: January 2022

Background: Lolly ice cream is a frozen sweetened product made of heat treated mix, with or without other ingredients and permitted additives. The objectives of this study were to develop lychee flavored lolly ice cream, to determine the overall acceptance of lychee flavored ice cream (sensory evaluation) and to use accelerated shelf-life testing to study the changes in acidity, total soluble solid (TSS), total solid, microbiology, and sensory characteristics of lolly ice cream.
Methods: The physical and chemical characteristics and the acceptance of lychee lolly ice cream flavored with lychee were evaluated and compared with lemon and orange lolly ice cream. A testing panel consisting 16 panelists studied the acceptability of the sample based on a 9-point hedonic scale. The consumer’s preferences were measured by statistical analysis of the scores obtained from the response of the panel.
Result: Lychee flavored lolly ice cream showed overall acceptance than orange and lemon lolly ice cream. Our results suggest that the shelf life of lolly ice cream sample was 1 year at -20°C and set expiration date on ice cream might also contribute to effective management of ice cream characteristics in the retail chilled chain.
Spatial Urban – Rural Interaction Patterns in Metropolitan Cirebon Raya using Remote Sensing and Socioeconomic Data
Authors: Atharinafi Zahrul , Wijaya Nurrohman
Published: January 2022

Urbanization patterns in developing Asian countries may or may not follow commonly known urbanization patterns and models set forth by lessons from the developed world. A unique phenomenon described as desakota is well known as a unique artifact of Asian urbanization, in which new urban areas arise semi-independently from otherwise rural regions in proximity to the edges of continuous urbanized areas.. We intend to identify the interaction between the urban fringe and surrounding rural areas while taking unique socioeconomic and morphological characteristics of the Desakota into account. We utilize a combination of K - Means Clustering, factor analysis and spatiotemporal analysis to identify patterns of urbanization in Metropolitan Cirebon Raya, an industrializing metropolitan statistical region where agriculture is still a douse, around Cirebon City, using statistical socioeconomic and demographic data from Badan Pusat Statistik in addition to land use data obtained from Landsat. Between 2010 – 2020, we identified substantial desakota type growth, in which new urbanized land development occurred organically from a formerly rural area, weakly linked to the supposed ‘center’ of the specified metropolitan region (Metropolitan Cirebon Raya). Based on the results obtained, we were able to corroborate desakota theory through quantitative methods, by taking socioeconomic and demographic data into account as a supplement to land use data. For delineation of metropolitan regions in Southeast Asia in which desakota patterns of development are presumed, we recommend utilizing the methodology we have developed, integrating both socioeconomic and demographic data to better identify desakota regions in peri-urban regions.

Published: January 2022

A legal identity document is the right of every citizen because it is a prerequisite in accessing public services. This study aims to assess the implementation of Presidential Regulation Number 62 of 2019 on the National Strategy of Strengthening Civil Registration and Vital Statistics (Stranas Percepatan AKPSH), which focuses on regulatory synchronization and services at a local level. A qualitative analysis approach was used, consisting of a literature study and in-depth interview methods. The research sample includes ministries/agencies at the central level, also several local governments, i.e., Palu City, Bantul Regency, Muaro Jambi Regency, East Sumba Regency, DKI Jakarta Province, and Surabaya City. The study shows that the central government has made policies to facilitate vulnerable groups in CRVS access. Local governments have policies that make it easier for vulnerable groups to get CRVS access; innovate administrative services; carry out socialization, advocacy, and education efforts involving third parties; and increase cooperation between regional government organizations (OPD) in implementing integrated civil registration services. However, there are still vulnerable groups that are not accommodated. Implementation at the regional level still has infrastructure readiness, human resources, and required special data collection team availability. Therefore, the determination of the vulnerability category becomes essential. This study recommends that it is necessary to create an additional classification of vulnerable groups in CRVS. In addition, it is essential to strengthening outreach to vulnerable groups in CRVS, especially at the regional level.
Interregional Disparity and Spatial Autocorrelation of Access to Water and Sanitation in Indonesia
Authors: Putirama Keisha Disa
Published: January 2022

This study investigates the interregional district-level inequalities and the spatial associations of household access to sustainable water and sanitation in Indonesia between 2004 and 2018. The findings show that although the gap of household access to water and sanitation declined over years, the disparities among districts in Indonesia kept persisting. Related to proliferation, the access in the districts that never separated is higher than in others. Furthermore, this study also confirms the presence of spatial cluster/outlier of accesses, although it remains very weak. The majority of districts with high access are clustered in the western part of Indonesia, especially in Java island. At the same time, in the mountainous areas of Papua island and some districts in Sumatera island where forest land has been degraded into plantation and mining areas have relatively low access for years. These left-behind districts need government attention and support in order to provide more equitable access to water and sanitation for the people.

The Japanese economic miracle and the role of government in the process of its achievement
Authors: Vasil Khizanishvili Vasil Khizanishvili
Published: January 2022

The Japanese economic miracle is known as the record period of Japanese economic growth between the end of World War II and the end of the Cold War (1945–1991).
One of the reasons for Japan's rapid recovery from post-war trauma was the government's successful economic reform. The government institution that dealt mainly with industrial policy in Japan was the Ministry of Industry. One of the most important economic reforms was the introduction-adaptation of the "Inclined Production Mode".
This success has been largely ensured to the interventionist policy of the Government of Japan and, in part, to the assistance provided by the United States in the form of the ,,Marshall Plan“.
Keywords: role of government, protectionism, reconstruction, US aid ("Marshall plan"), Japanese economic miracle.

INFLUENCE OF TECHNOLOGY ELEMENTS ON TEMPERATURE AND SOIL MOISTURE FOR ZUCCHINI GROWING IN THE CONDITIONS OF THE FOREST-STEPPE OF THE RIGHT BANK OF UKRAINE
Authors: Palamarchuk Inna
Published: January 2022

The results of researches of influence of mulching of soil and water-retaining granules Akvod on temperature and humidity of soil in the conditions of Forest-steppe of right-bank Ukraine are resulted. An increase in soil temperature and humidity was revealed with the use of black agrofiber mulching materials and perforated black polyethylene film, which is 1.3 and 2.6 ° C higher than the variant where soil mulching was not used. When mulching the soil with black agrofiber and perforated black polyethylene film, the soil moisture was 78.1–79.0 %, which is 14.5 and 15.4 % more than the control. The increase in soil moisture against the background of water-retaining granules relative to the control averaged 14.5 %, and with the use of black polyethylene film – 15.4 %.
An important indicator in identifying the influence of the studied factors is the yield. The highest yields were found when mulching the soil with black agrofiber and
perforated black polyethylene film 91.9 and 102.1 t / ha, which is 17.7 and 27.8 t / ha, respectively, more than the control. It was found that against the background of the introduction of Aquod granules, all the studied options provided a significantly higher yield of zucchini.
The largest increase in yield relative to control was provided by the options for mulching the soil with black agrofiber and perforated black polyethylene film, while the yield of marketable products increased by 24.0-34.9 t / ha. The use of mulching materials and water-retaining granules also increased the biometric parameters of zucchini products. The largest number of fruits was observed for mulching the soil with black agrofiber and perforated black polyethylene film 26.3–29.4 pcs / plant. The highest fruit weight was observed for mulching the soil with black agrofiber – 299 g and perforated black polyethylene film – 314 g, which is more than the control of 13–28 g. The diameter of the fruit, depending on the use of mulching materials was in the range of 4.9 – 5.2 cm Thus, for the variety Zolotinka, the diameter of the fruit increased by 0.1 – 0.3 cm during mulching of the soil with different materials.
The number of fruits, depending on the mulching material on the background of water-retaining granules in all studied variants was significantly higher. The largest number of fruits was noted for mulching the soil with agrofiber and perforated black polyethylene film – 30.6–31.7 pieces / plant. In general, all the studied options provided an increase relative to control. An important indicator that affects the yield is the weight of the fruit. The highest fruit weight was recorded during mulching of the soil with perforated black polyethylene film 317 g, which is 26 g more than the control. Thus, the use of mulching materials on the background of water-retaining granules Akvod promotes more intensive fruit growth.
IMPACT OF HERBICIDES AND GROWTH REGULATOR ON CORN YIELD
Authors: Okrushko Svetlana
Published: January 2022

The article describes the influence of soil and insurance herbicides on the number, weight of weeds in corn crops and its yield. On the plots where herbicides were applied, the effect of the growth regulator Zeastimulin on corn plants and its productivity was simultaneously studied. Three years of research have shown that the degree of weediness of corn crops is high. In the agrophytocenosis of corn a mixed type of weediness was formed, in which late spring weeds predominated. After application of Adengo herbicide (soil, 0.35 l / ha), weed accounting showed a 90% reduction in weed agrophytocenosis of corn, compared to the weediness of the control variant. Consistent application of pre-emergence and post-emergence herbicides best controlled weed numbers and reduced their negative effects in maize agrophytocenoses.
Controlling the number of weeds in maize agrophytocenoses before the emergence of seedlings with the help of soil herbicide Adengo (0.5 l / ha) provides an increase in grain yield for an average of three years of research by 3.5 t / ha. Consistent use of Adengo (0.35 l / ha) and MaisTer Power (1.25 l / ha) in the corn phase of 4-5 leaves before sawing gave a grain increase of 4.4 t / ha. Preventing the harmful effects of weeds by chemical means has saved a significant part of the potential yield of corn grain. In the variants, where herbicides were used compatible with the growth regulator Zeastimulin, there was a decrease in weed mass and an increase in grain yield by 7.8% in the variant, where the soil herbicide Adengo 465 (0.5 l / ha) was applied before the emergence of seedlings, and by 6.8% in the variant with consistent use of Adengo 465 (0.35 l / ha) before sowing corn and MaisTer Power herbicides (1.25 l / ha) during the phase of 4-5 leaves in corn.

Purpose. Experimental establishment of regularities of the process of drying chicken manure due to the use of exhaust air from the poultry house.
Methods. The experimental research is based on methods of experiment planning and static processing of the obtained data. Calculations, processing of experimental data, modeling and graphical display of dependencies were performed using application software for Windows: Microsoft Excel.
Results. The number of conveyors for drying fresh chicken litter with a layer of 3, 7 and 10 cm with air with a temperature of 30–35 °C and 20–22 °C using a bubble air from the poultry house is determined.
Conclusions
1. The construction-technological scheme of the experimental sample of technical means for drying of chicken manure by means of exhaust air from a poultry house is developed.
2. Experimental studies of the process of loading manure across the width of the perforated pallet (sieve). It is established that the greatest uniformity of 88% is provided by the conveyor with the bilateral screw for distribution.
3. It was experimentally determined that in the process of drying with exhaust air with a temperature of 30–35 °С and a constant speed of 4.1–4.6 m/s in the summer, the humidity of chicken manure from the initial 68 % decreased to the required 15 % in 22 hours. In the cold season, at an air temperature of 20–22 °С, with the same air speed for 22 hours, the humidity of the manure decreased from 68 % to 20 %, which indicates the need to heat the air to achieve drying time to the required humidity of 15 %.

The Role of Catteries and Boarding Kennels In Enabling Tourist Mobility
Authors: Bernardi Cecilia DE , Edelheim Johan , Crossley émilie
Published: January 2022

Pets are increasingly being recognized as family members, leaving their owners with difficult decisions about how to care for them during periods of travel. Tourists can either travel with their pets, leave them in the care of family or friends, or use a paid service provided by an
animal boarding facility or "pet hotel." We empirically explore the latter option and theorize pet hotels as enablers of tourist mobility in tourist-generating regions. User-generated content (UGC) consisting of textual pet owner reviews on Google Reviews and Facebook from boarding kennels
and catteries across six countries are analyzed using qualitative content analysis. We identify three key themes revealing what users of these services emphasize in their reviews: first, catteries and boarding kennel enable pet owners to travel; second, these facilities alleviate tourists'
feelings of guilt or worry; third, pets are imagined to be enjoying their own holidays while at the facilities. This research note sheds light on a growing cultural phenomenon relating to tourism among a globally mobile population for whom pets substitute or extend their human families.

Authors: Wekesa Violet , Kitainge Kisilu
Published: January 2022

The success of students in secondary schools’ systems is measured by their performance at the end of course examinations. In Kenya, the end of secondary school level of education examination is the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education. This paper looks at the performance of upgraded extra county schools to national status in western Kenya. The research adopted a descriptive research design; the target population were 295 teachers and eight school principals in upgraded Extra County Schools to the national level. Sample size calculation formula by role was used to get 170 teachers who were selected through a simple random sampling method, whereas all eight Principals were selected using purposive sampling. Data for this investigation were collected through teacher questionnaire, interview schedule for Principal and document analysis guide for secondary data. Analysis of data was done using frequencies, percentages, means, standard deviation and one sample statistics. Results showed that there was an -18.7% change in KCSE performance from the year 2013 to 2018. Hence the upgrading of national schools in western Kenyan resulted in to drop in performance in all the upgraded schools under study. The study recommends that TSC should deploy more teachers in these schools, government to increase its support towards the upgrading of infrastructure in the upgraded schools in the region and the board of management to be proactive in planning for quality education provision in their schools.

TOPOLOGICAL INVARIANTS AND MILNOR FIBRE FOR \(\mathcal{A}\)-FINITE GERMS \(C^2\) to \(C^3\)
Authors: Fernández De Bobadilla Javier , Peñafort-Sanchis Guillermo , Sampaio José Edson
Published: January 2022

This note is the observation that a simple combination of known results shows that the usual analytic invariants of a finitely determined multi-germ \(f : (C^2 , S) → (C^3 , 0) \)—namely, the image Milnor number , the number of cross-caps and triple points, \(C\) and \(T\), and the Milnor number \(μ(Σ)\) of the curve of double points in the target—depend only on the embedded topological type of the image of \(f\). As a consequence, one obtains the topological invariance of the sign-refined Smale invariant for immersions \(j : S^3 \looparrowright  S^5\) associated to finitely determined map germs \((C^2 , 0) → (C^3 , 0)\).

The externalizing spectrum describes a range of heterogeneous personality traits and behavioral patterns, primarily characterized by antisocial behavior, disinhibition, and substance (mis)use. In psychopathology, abnormalities in neural threat, reward responses and the impulse-control system may be responsible for these externalizing symptoms. Within the non-clinical range, mechanisms remain still unclear. In this fMRI-study, 61 healthy participants (31 men) from the higher versus lower range of the non-clinical variation in externalization (31 participants with high externalization) as assessed by the subscales disinhibition and meanness of the Triarchic-Psychopathy-Measure (TriPM) performed a monetary modified Taylor-Aggression-Paradigm (mTAP). This paradigm consisted of a mock competitive-reaction-time-task played against a fictional opponent with preprogrammed win- and lose-trials. In lose-trials, participants were provoked by subtraction of an amount of money between 0 and 90 cents. As a manipulation check, provocation induced a significant rise in behavioral aggression levels linked with an increased activation in the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC). High externalization predicted reduced ACC responses to provocation. However, high externalizing participants did not behave more aggressively than the low externalization group. Additionally, the high externalizing group showed a significantly lower positive affect while no group differences emerged for negative affect. In conclusion, high externalization in the non-clinical range was related to neural alterations in regions involved in affective decision-making as well as to changes in affect but did not lead to higher behavioral aggression levels in response to the mTAP. This is in line with previous findings suggesting that aberrations at multiple levels are essential for developing externalizing disorders.
Why does the probe value effect emerge in working memory? Examining the biased attentional refreshing account
Authors: Atkinson Amy L. , Oberauer Klaus , Allen Richard J , Souza Alessandra S.
Published: January 2022

People are able to prioritize more valuable information in working memory. The current study examined whether this value effect is due to the items of greater value being refreshed more than lower-value items during maintenance. To assess this possibility, we combined a probe value manipulation with a guided-refreshing procedure. Arrays of colored shapes were presented, and after a brief delay, participants reported the color of one randomly probed shape on a continuous color wheel. To manipulate probe value, one item was indicated as more valuable than the rest prior to encoding (i.e., worth more notional points), or all items were indicated as equally valuable. To guide refreshing, in some trials, two arrows were presented during maintenance, each arrow cueing the spatial location of one item. Participants were told to “think of” (i.e., refresh) the cued item. If value boosts are driven by attentional refreshing, cueing an item to be refreshed should enhance performance for items that are of low or equal value, but not items of high value, as these items would be refreshed regardless of the cue. This pattern of outcomes was observed, providing support for the hypothesis that attentional refreshing at least partially accounts for probe value effects in working memory.
Labor force for the fourth industrial revolution: the experience of Germany
Authors: Romanova Ekaterina
Published: January 2022

The paper analyzes political decisions in the field of personnel and educational policy as a response of four German administrations, with Angela Merkel as the Federal Chancellor, to challenges of digitalization. Since challenges in the development of labor market induced by demographic and migration factors are similar for Russia and Germany, German experience may be useful for Russia as a large federal state with significant risks of rising social inequality. Challenges in the development of the labor market induced by demographic and migration factors are common for Russia and Germany. The author addresses the key challenge for the German government — the organization of humane working conditions in a new digital reality presented in the White Paper “Work 4.0” after careful examination and consultation with main actors: associations, trade unions, companies, academia and civil society. He sees the solution to the problem in improving qualifications and developing digital skills, as well as ensuring attractive working conditions, in the first place for specialists in engineering, technical and natural science specialties (STEM). The analysis concludes with recommendations for policymakers which include such measures as improving gender equality in STEM professions and selective migration policy that mitigates unnecessary barriers for highly qualified immigrants.
Once again about scientific and technological progress and the advantages of socialism
Authors: Lugachyov Mihail
Published: January 2022

The article contains a commentary on the publication of G. A. Maslov «Scientific and technological progress and the advantages of socialism: the evolution of Soviet Economic thought» (Bulletin of the Moscow State University, Series 6. Economics, No. 3, 2021). Against the current difficulties in implementing national projects (criticism of their implementation was voiced at SPIEF-2019 and continues today), the publication of materials praising the organization of scientific and technological progress during the construction of the material and technical base of communism seems a nostalgic appeal. The glorification of real achievements does not raise protest. What is unacceptable is to silence equally evident failures. Here we mean the resolution «On the development of computer hardware production» (#1180-420) adopted at the meeting of the Communist party Politburo and the USSR Council of Ministers on December 30, 1967, which entailed the destruction of the Soviet industry that produced computer equipment for civil needs. This decision resulted in the replacement of Soviet-made computers with obsolete models of the largest US companies. We are still trying to correct the effect of this strategic mistake, but to recognize and, most importantly, draw necessary lessons both from the wrong decision and the accompanying processes is vital for successful implementation of today's national projects, primarily the Digital Economy Agenda.
Modelling the impact of digital technologies on the unemployment rate in Russia
Authors: Dzhunkeev Urmat
Published: January 2022

The paper examines labor market patterns in the light of digital economy development. The aim is to analyze labor market conjuncture in terms of registered unemployment dynamics. The degree of digital economy development is assessed through three indicators: the share of organizations using (1) the Internet, (2) local area networks, (3) number of personal computers per 100 employees. In addition to technological development
indicators, the article also makes account of certain demographic factors. Since early 2000s, the degree of Internet penetration in organizations has doubled, while the number of computers increased threefold. The share of elderly population and life expectancy rate have increased by 5 percent and 7 years respectively. Drawing on econometric panel data models regarding federal districts in Russia for 2003–2019, the author provides the following findings. First, the proliferation of technological advances reduces unemployment rate. Second, an increase in the proportion of population above working age and life expectancy entails the reduction in unemployment rate. Third, combined effect of technological and demographic factors increases unemployment rate. The magnitude of the reduction exceeds the degree of increase in the unemployment rate due to technological advances. Thus, technological unemployment is more likely a theoretical possibility. Fourth, the determinants taken into consideration explain from 38 to 43 percent of unemployment rate change. The proposed approach can be applied in designing regulatory policies regarding employment with regard to the implementation of digital technologies in organizations and population aging in Russia’s regions.

INVERSION OF THE CONCEPT ABOUT BIOLOGICAL ROLE OF RENIN → ANGIOTENSIN-II → ALDOSTERONE SYSTEM AND FUNCTION OF ARTERIAL BLOOD PRESSURE AS A METABOLISM REGULATOR
Authors: Titov V. N.
Published: January 2022

The phylogenetic theory of general pathology postulates an inversion of the concept about the role of arterial blood pressure (AP) in physiology and pathology. Activation of the synthesis of the renin → angiotensin-II (AG-II) system components by nephron and increase in aldosterone secretion are not aimed at elevating AP., but at maintaining the volume of extracellular medium, part of the Third Word Ocean where all cells still live as millions of years ago. Phylogenetically early internal organs cannot regulate the effects of phylogenetically late AP., a physical factor of metabolism. AP is not increased by kidneys, but by the vasomotor center that attempts to reanimate nephronal function, the biological function of endoecology and biological reaction of excretion by increasing AP in proximal and, subsequently, hydrodynamic pressure in the distal region of arterial bed. In addition to the major role in the realization of the biological function of locomotion, AP is a physical factor involved in compensation of impaired functions of homeostasis, trophology, endoecology and adaptation. Levels of metabolism regulation have developed during phylogenesis. Biochemical reactions are specifically regulated at the autocrine level. In paracrine-regulated cell communities of distal arterial bed, metabolism is regulated by millions of local peristaltic pumps by compensating the biological reactions of endothelium-dependent vasodilation, microcirculation, effects of humoral messengers and hormones. In vivo metabolism is regulated nonspecifically from the vasomotor center level by a physical factor (AP) by sympathetic activation of the heart; AP in proximal and distal regions of arterial bed overcomes peripheral resistance and «squeezes through» the arterioles where microcirculation is impaired. AG-II acts as a vasoconstrictor only in the distal arterial bed. In essential (metabolic) arterial hypertension, paracrine cell communities of nephrons and kidneys are involved in realization of pathologic compensation in the second turn and often “suffer being innocent” , similar to other “target” organs”, such as brain, lungs and heart.

The Short-term Outcome of Early Oral Feeding as Recovery Protocols on Resectable Gastric Cancer
Authors: Sungkar Affan Adib , Adyana Ida Bagus Budhi Surya
Published: January 2022

BACKGROUND: Gastric cancer is the fourth most common malignancy. Surgical resection is the only treatment. Giving early oral feeding after gastric surgery is controversial.

AIM: This study aimed to provide short-term outcomes in resectable gastric cancer patients by early oral feeding.

METHODS: A retrospective descriptive study with a cross-sectional approach was conducted with all gastric cancer patients treated and performed tumor resection who underwent early oral feeding protocol at RSUD Dr. Moewardi Surakarta in January 2018–August 2019. The data, especially age, gender, tumor location, resection, reconstruction, and short-term outcome (anastomotic leak and surgical site infection), were taken from the medical records.

RESULTS: A total of seven patients were included in the study. Six patients were >50 yearsold (60.14 + 1.29 years). Four patients (57.14%) were female. One patient (14.28%) had Roux-en-Y esophagojejunostomy anastomoses, two patients (28.57%) had a Billroth while four patients (57.15%) were performed Billroth II. There was no significant correlation between early oral feeding and short-term outcome.

CONCLUSION: This description of short-term outcome in resectable gastric cancer which performed early oral feeding protocols has not shown any complications. However, this research needs further research with more significant number of samples and post-operative complications.
Histopathological Types of Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma: Clinicopathologic Study
Authors: Almukhtar Zainab Khalid
Published: January 2022

BACKGROUND: Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is the most common type of thyroid carcinoma that represents a set of characteristic of nuclear features in which the diagnosis is depend.

AIM: The study aimed to review different variants of PTC which has different malignant potential in correlation with many prognostic and clinical factors in Iraq.

PATIENTS AND METHODS: Paraffin blocks of 227 cases of PTC were selected, subtyped, and grouped according to the malignant potential. The prognostic and clinical factors were studied.

RESULTS: The mean age was (39.29 ± 12.17) years, with female predominance (86.3%), where (55.5%) of them below 40 years, conventional variant was most common (40.1%), followed by papillary microcarcinoma variant, 197 cases (86.8%) were classified as low to intermediate malignant potential, and 30 cases (13.2%) were classified as high malignant potential. On comparison, among the tumor stages, tumor focality, native capsular invasion, lymph nodes involvement, presence or absence of vascular invasion, extrathyroid extension, and distant metastasis, there is no significant correlation between them, whereas with the tumor size, there is significant correlation between them (p =< 0.05).

CONCLUSION: Conventional type followed by micropapillary type is most common. The mean age in Iraqi patients is lower than other countries for PTC. There is no significant association regarding prognostic factors between low to intermediate malignant potential variants and high malignant potential variants with exception of tumor diameter.

OR. Specimens were collected once a month except snowy season from Abashiri River basin, eastern Hokkaido, between June 2007 to November 2011. Fish were captured by the electrofisher (Smith-Root, Model 12-b). The estimated allometric coefficient b values ranged from 2.790 (ninespine stickleback ) to 3.294 (the sculpin), and r2 values ranged from 0.772 (lake minnow) to 0.994 (the goby). All the LWRs were highly significant, with p < 0.001. Besides, the study provides the first estimates of LWRs for the stone loach, Japanese smelt, masu salmon, whitespotted char, the sculpin, and the goby.
SoREn, How Dynamic Software Update Tools Can Help Cybersecurity Systems to Improve Monitoring and Actions

Published: January 2022

Because stopping a service to apply updates raises issues, Dynamic Software Updating studies the application of updates on programs without disrupting the services they provide. This is acheived using specific mechanisms operating updating tasks such as the modification of the program state. To acheive transparency, Dynamic Software Updating systems use pre-selected and pre-configured mechanisms. Developers provide patches that are transparently converted to dynamic updates. The cost of such transparency is often that applied patches cannot modify the general semantic of the updated program. Allowing dynamic modification of the general semantic of a running program is rarely considered.

In the context of protection of communications between moving vehicles and uncontrolled infrastructure, SoREn (Security REconfigurable Engine) is designed to be dynamically reconfigurable. Its semantics can transparently be modified at runtime to change the security policy it enforces. Administrators can supply new policies to trigger a reconfiguration, without developing new components. This paper details and discusses the design of SoREn, its meta-model linked to cybersecurity business concepts and its automatic reconfiguration calculator allowing transparent application of reconfigurations.
