Authors: Fregolet Thays , Schneider Alberto Luiz
Published: October 2023

Este artigo tem como objeto de pesquisa o ano de 1940, momento no qual o interesse pelo Oeste brasileiro consolida-se como uma verdadeira obsessão, tanto entre parte da intelectualidade, como nos meios políticos, especialmente no Estado Novo. Serão analisados três documentos do ano de 1940: a obra Marcha para Oeste: a influência da Bandeira na formação social e política do Brasil, de Cassiano Ricardo; o filme Os Bandeirantes, de Humberto Mauro; os discursos presidenciais de Getúlio Vargas por ocasião das viagens rumo ao interior do país. Nosso objetivo consiste em analisar o conteúdo político, cultural e o simbolismo dessas vozes.

Authors: Cardozo Poliana , Antoszczyszyn Lucas
Published: October 2023

Com o foco em analisar os recursos interpretativos de museus de memória em comparação com museus de arte à luz dos conceitos e práticas da interpretação patrimonial como ferramenta de partilha de conhecimentos e educação, investigamos 9 museus (Buenos Aires, São Paulo e Santiago) a partir de dados documentais, bibliográficos e in loco. Concluímos que há muita disparidade na qualidade das informações prestadas entre os dois tipos de museus e refletimos sobre as razões disto.

Relación entre hormona paratiroidea alterada y fracturas óseas en pacientes en hemodiálisis
Authors: Guzman-Ventura Wilmer , Villacorta Díaz María
Published: October 2023

Contexto: Las fracturas óseas en pacientes en hemodiálisis son frecuentes y agregan una grave incapacidad y morbimortalidad; se han relacionado a alteraciones óseo-minerales, aunque su asociación con las alteraciones de la hormona paratiroidea es controversial.
Objetivo: determinar la relación entre hormona paratiroidea intacta (PTH) alterada y fracturas óseas en pacientes en hemodiálisis.
Metodología: se realizó un estudio transversal y analítico en 250 pacientes en hemodiálisis atendidos en el Hospital Víctor Lazarte Echegaray (La Libertad, Perú) entre el 2015 y el 2020. Los pacientes se clasificaron de acuerdo con su valor de PTH (alterada si PTH < 150 o > 300 pg/ml) y la presentación de fracturas óseas. La asociación entre PTH alterada y la presencia de fracturas óseas se determinó al usar un análisis bivariado y multivariado; los resultados se presentan como odds ratio (OR) considerando un valor p significativo si < 0,05.
Resultados: se evaluaron 250 pacientes, 69 tuvieron PTH alterada (27,6?%) y 181 tuvieron PTH normal (72,4?%); asimismo, 42 tenían fracturas óseas (16,8?%) y 208 no tenían fracturas óseas (83,2?%). De los 42 pacientes con fracturas óseas, 22 presentaron PTH alterada (52,4?%) y 20 PTH normal (47,6?%); de los 208 pacientes sin fracturas óseas, 47 presentaron PTH alterada (22,6?%) y 161 PTH normal (p = 0,001) (77,4?%). Así, tener PTH alterada se asoció a la presencia de fracturas óseas con un OR de 3,77 (IC 95?%: 1,90-7,49) en el análisis bivariado y un OR de 2,85 (IC 95?%: 1,19-6,82) en el análisis multivariado. Las covariables que se asociaron a presencia de fracturas óseas fueron: tener más de 60 años (OR: 2,74, IC 95?%: 1,12-6,69) y tener más de cinco años en hemodiálisis (OR: 6,72, IC 95?%: 2,98-15,13).
Conclusiones: la hormona paratiroidea alterada se relaciona con fracturas óseas en pacientes en hemodiálisis.

Authors: Danko Maria , Trebunova Marianna , Hudak Radovan , Zivcak Jozef
Published: October 2023

The study presents the basic terms of three-dimensional bioprinting and physical, chemical, and biological properties affecting the printability of hydrogel biomaterials. It deals with the principle of evaluating the quality of three-dimensional bioprinting. The goal was to design a procedural algorithm to analyze prints produced by extrusion 3D bioprinting critically. Forty-one cylindrical scaffolds were created experimentally from the same material and under varying printing parameters. The settings of the most plausible sample compared to the CAD design were used to 3D bioprint ten cylindrical samples. Analysis of measurement system (ASM) with three operators was used for evaluation. The results showed that the printability measurement system is conditionally suitable. At the same time, the methodology for evaluating the shape similarity of samples through macroscopic pore classification requires re-evaluation and further experiments.

Authors: Stefanovic Branko , Ondrejova Bibiana , Bednarcikova Lucia , Michalikova Monika
Published: October 2023

The digitization of the design process of lower limb prosthetic sockets seems to be necessary. Using modern CAD procedures and CAM technologies, it is possible to produce functional, individual prosthetic aids that bring many benefits compared to commonly used methods. However, the disadvantage of using CAD/CAM procedures can be the input costs for production technology and software. The aim of this research is to propose a low-cost solution for individual transtibial socket design and production. Modern methods and technologies like 3D scanning, CAD design and additive manufacturing have been applied. As a result, a transtibial stump positive and custom socket design methodology is proposed. In conclusions a total value of a custom transtibial socket design and production was calculated.
The words that make fake stories go viral: A corpus-based approach to analyzing Russian Covid-19 disinformation
Authors: Monogarova Alina G. , Shiryaeva Tatyana A. , Tikhonova Elena V.
Published: October 2023

Since the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020, the spread of the new virus has been accompanied by the growing infodemic that became a dangerous prospect for Internet users. Social media and online messengers have been instrumental in making fake stories about Covid-19 viral. The lack of an efficient instrument for classifying digital texts as true or fake is still a big challenge. Deceptive content and its specific characteristics attract attention of many linguists, making it one of the most popular contemporary topics in corpus-based research. This paper explores the language of viral Covid-related fake stories and identifies specific linguistic features that distinguish fake stories from real (authentic) news using quantitative and qualitative approaches to text analysis. The study was conducted on the material of the self-compiled diachronic corpus containing Russian misleading coronavirus-related social media posts (a target corpus of 897 texts) which were virally shared by Russian users through social media platforms and mobile messengers from March 2020 to March 2022 and the reference corpus containing genuine materials about the virus. First, we compared two corpora using an interpretable set of features across language levels to find whether there is evidence of significant variation in the language of fake and real news. Then, we focused on frequency profiling to extract other over-represented groups of words from both corpora. Finally, we analyzed the corresponding contexts to indicate whether these features can be considered as linguistic trends in Russian Covid-related fake story making. Findings regarding the role of these over-represented groups of words in fake narratives about coronavirus revealed efficiency of frequency profiling in indicating lexical patterns of the language of deception.
Unveiling semantic complexity of the lexeme ‘reputation’: Corpus analysis
Authors: Ivanova Svetlana V. , Medvedeva Svetlana N.
Published: October 2023

Primarily considered as a form of socially transmitted self-representation, reputation is one of the key concepts in public communication which makes it a worthwhile object for linguistic analysis. The present research is aimed at unveiling the semantic complexity of the lexeme ‘reputation’ by examining its immediate environment in COCA. The study showcases how the closest lexical context enhances the meaning of the lexeme. The sampling under analysis consists of 98 most frequent collocations with adjectives (4,088 tokens) and 57 collocations with verbs (6,190 tokens). The methods of the study include contextual analysis, semantic clusterisation and collostructional analysis based on statistical measure of log-likelihood. As a result, 7 semantic clusters of ‘adjective reputation’ and 8 clusters of ‘verb reputation’ have been obtained. The research proves that discoursewise, the collocations with the lexeme ‘reputation’ are found in newspaper, magazine, blog and web-general sections of COCA. The analysis reveals that in English, reputation is metaphorically represented as a building, a piece of fabric and as a valuable object made of precious metal, where it inherits the properties of tangible objects. A good reputation is earned over time by hard work and, once established, requires monitoring and maintenance. If damaged, it is not thrown away but is to be restored. Metonymically, reputation adopts the qualities of its proprietor (‘notorious reputation’, ‘unfortunate reputation’). The paper contributes to the theory of metaphor and could be beneficial for those working within cultural linguistics, lexicography and translation studies. The research may be further extended with corpus-based analysis of semantically close lexemes.
Language representations and language attitudes in the Mishar dialect continuum
Authors: Moskvitcheva Svetlana A. , Viaut Alain , Zamaletdinov Radif R.
Published: October 2023

To forecast the sociolinguistic dynamics of the language, to determine the level of its vitality and to provide adequate measures of language policy and planning, it seems important to analyze the structures of the symbolic components of the language situation, which include language representations and language attitudes, that is, social attitudes towards language. The article presents the results of the analysis of the main types of Tatar language representations and linguistic attitudes among speakers of the Mishar idiom of the Tatar language. The data were collected in the regions where the Mishary Tatars live, namely in the Middle Volga region and in Prisurie. The main research method was a semi-structured interview with subsequent analysis of the obtained data, its classification and interpretation. The paper proposes five clusters of language representations in the minority situation: representations related to the instrumental, symbolic and regulative functions of language, on the one hand, and representations related to the actualized identity structures and to the deontic attitudes of the individual, on the other. In connection with these classes of representations and taking into account language forms, language competences and language practices, a typology of language loyalty is proposed, which includes instrumental loyalty, symbolic loyalty, loyalty according to the forms of language used, loyalty according to language competences and prescriptive loyalty. The material analysis showed the prevalence of positive representations of the Mishar idiom among its speakers, the presence of active positive loyalty in oral spheres of communication at the local level, a high level of idiom preservation, and the integrative nature of sociolinguistic dynamics. At the same time, the situation should be regarded as diglossic both in relation to the Russian language and to the literary Tatar language, which is considered to be prestigious.
Picture naming test: Linguistic challenges of the method and ways to solve them
Authors: Morkovina Olga I. , Gishkaeva Luiza N. , Sharapkova Anastasia A.
Published: October 2023

The paper considers benefits and drawbacks of the Picture Naming Test (PNT) as a diagnostic method suggesting the ways to improve its diagnostic and research validity. Although this test is popular in both national and international neuropsychological assessment and research practice, its use is largely due to tradition and practical convenience. However, theoretical underpinnings for its effectiveness are not sufficiently represented in the pertinent literature, which determines the relevance of the study. The major objective of the paper is to consider the PNT as a research technique from the point of view of psycholinguistics, cognitive science, and corpus linguistics and to propose integrated approaches for the further development of these tests. The material comprises picture naming tests developed for the Russian and English languages. The study sets the following aims: 1) to define the main features of PNT and the principles of its application viewed from a historical perspective; 2) to identify the theoretical foundations (linguistic and neuropsychological) for its use as a diagnostic tool; 3) to highlight the problematic aspects of the method; 4) to suggest possible ways to eliminate them. To accomplish these tasks, various methods of corpus linguistics are applied throughout the article. The historical outline of PNT development suggests that the current design might stem from earlier contexts of use. A review of existing models of lexical access provides a theoretical basis for the test in its current form and suggests possible avenues for its development grounded in experimental research, advances in linguistics and big data analysis. A separate section of the article presents critique of the most popular tests. Finally, the analysis of the existing English and Russian tests through the corpus-based methodology clearly demonstrates the need for more detailed norming and stimuli selection. By way of conclusion the authors outline the principles of designing Picture Naming Tests for specific purposes and put forward a step-by-step algorithm that enables careful selection of the necessary indicators and parameters.
Linguistic pluricentrism and the Russian language
Authors: Shaibakova Damina , Protassova Ekaterina , Yelenevskaya Maria
Published: October 2023

Can the Russian language be regarded as pluricentric since it is used in various countries and regions of the world where different varieties of the language have evolved? Indeed, in Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and some other countries, Russian is used as the official language of state bodies and institutions. However, each of these countries has its own linguistic and cultural specificities of grammar, vocabulary and phonetics, which distinguish it from other varieties of the Russian language. In addition, the Russian language is used in countries where it is not an official language, such as Finland, Germany, Israel. There it also has its own characteristics caused by interaction with different languages and cultures. The goal of the study is to show that all these varieties of the Russian language can be viewed as pluricentric variants, i.e. as independent language systems with their own characteristics and differences. Theoretically, the recognition of the Russian language as pluricentric would help to better understand the old and emerging varieties of the language and establish their relationship with each other, making it possible to compare different varieties of the language with each other at all linguistic levels. Practically, such recognition would also make it possible to trace the adaptive possibilities of the Russian language, which vary depending on the region and cultural environment, which in turn will diversify and deepen the study of the Russian language, making it more interesting for the learner. Based on the theory of pluricentricity, the paper compares practices of the language use and seeks to establish commonalities of Russian pluricentrism. Moreover, it highlights the unique features of the Kazakhstan language variety while demonstrating new opportunities for studying the flexible adaptability of the language. This approach will contribute to better understanding and appreciating the richness and versatility of the Russian language as it is used around the world.

Bibliometric analysis of global research on human organoids
Authors: Li Huanyu , Wang Daofeng , Wong Ho Cheong , Shan Dan
Published: October 2023

Background: Animal models play a crucial role in medicine and biology,
but they can’t fully replace human models for studying human biology,
disease mechanisms, and drug efficacy. Human organoids offer an
opportunity to investigate human diseases and complement animal models.
However, research on human organoids lacks comprehensive
characterizations. Objective: Identify and describe publications
exploring and applying organoids. Methods: Thorough analysis of articles
from the past two decades retrieved from Web of Science core collection
database. Examined publication year, authors, institutions, countries,
references, and keywords. Reviewed top 100 highly cited articles using
CiteSpace. Results: Found 6817 original articles on organoids, with a
remarkable surge over the past decade (nearly 70-fold increase since
2009). Collaboration among the United States, China, Germany,
Netherlands, England, and Japan was prominent. Key figures advancing
this field include Clevers Hans, Van Der Laan, Jason R. Spence, and Sato
Toshiro. Top articles covered basic research (39%), stem cell
development, interactions; biobanking (9%) for organoid cultivation;
precision medicine (15%) in cell therapy, drug development; disease
modeling (37%) involving pathogen analysis, genetic variant screening.
Challenges: high costs, technological barriers, lack of standardized
protocols, precise immune system establishment, limited quality clinical
trials. Overcoming these requires collaborative efforts, evaluation
guidelines. Conclusions: Organoid research focuses on basic research,
disease modeling, precision medicine, and biobanking. Prioritizing cost
reduction, technology sharing, international standards, and high-quality
clinical trials is crucial.

Authors: A Kelly McNamara , Murnion Bridin , Fotheringham Penelope , Terplan Mishka , Lintzeris Nicholas , Oei Ju Lee , Bond Diana , Nassar Natasha , Black Kirsten
Published: October 2023

Abstract Background Unintended pregnancy (UIP) and substance use
disorder (SUD) share underlying root causes with similar potential
impacts for women and their offspring in pregnancy, birth and beyond.
Furthermore, use of alcohol and other drugs (AOD) increases the risk of
UIP. Objectives To assess the available evidence on impact of UIP on
health, social and economic outcomes, in women who use AOD. Search
Strategy The review was conducted using the Joanna Briggs Institute
Methodology for Scoping Reviews and PRISMA reporting guidelines. The
search was conducted across multiple electronic databases, including
Scopus and Medline, and limited to studies published between January
2000 to June 2023. Selection Criteria Studies reporting on interactions
between AOD use and UIP, and subsequent pregnancy, birth, infant,
childhood, social or economic outcomes. All patterns and types of AOD
use, except isolated use of tobacco, were included. Studies were
available in English and conducted in high income countries. Data
Collection and Analysis Selected articles were reviewed, and data
collected by 2 independent reviewers using a standardised data
extraction sheet. Findings were summarised and reported descriptively.
Main Results A total of 2383 titles and abstracts were screened, 97 full
texts were reviewed, and three studies were selected for inclusion in
the scoping review. There was heterogeneity in types and patterns of AOD
use, differences in study design and tools to assess pregnancy
intention, and each focused on disparate outcomes. No study assessed or
reported on birth outcomes. Conclusion There is a paucity of data
examining the intersection between AOD use and UIP and further research
is needed. Funding The University of Sydney Albert S. McKern

Approximate Solutions for Optimal Control of Fixed Boundary Value Problems Using Variational and Minimum Approaches
Authors: Hameed Amal S. , Zaboon Radhi A.
Published: October 2023

The optimal control is the process of finding a control strategy that extreme some performance index for a dynamic system (partial differential equation) over the class of admissibility. The present work deals with a problem of fixed boundary with a control manipulated in the structure of the partial differential equation. An attractive computational method for determining the optimal control of unconstrained linear dynamic system with a quadratic performance index is presented. In the proposed method the difference between every state variable and its initial condition is represented by a finite - term polynomial series, this representation leads to a system of linear algebraic equations which represents the necessary condition of optimality. The linear algebraic system is solved by using two approaches namely the variational iteration method and the minimization approach for unconstrained optimization problem with estimation of gradient and Hessian matrix. These approaches are illustrated by two application examples.

Kepemimpinan Perempuan di Jawa Timur dalam Perspektif Keputusan Muktamar, Munas, dan Konbes Nahdlatul Ulama (1926-1999 Masehi)
Authors: Ellyda Retpitasari  , Nailal Muna
Published: October 2023

Problematika gender merupakan bagian isu dan tema sentral yang tidak luput dari pembahasan di masyarakat. Perempuan yang berada pada posisi dipimpin, semenjak kebijakan era reformasi yang memberi ruang pada perempuan memunculkan kepempimpinan perempuan. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan fenomenologi mencoba untuk menganalisa Kepemimpinan perempuan di Jawa Timur dalam perspektif Keputusan Muktamar, Munas, dan Konbes Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) (1926-1999 Masehi). Kesetaraan gender dalam fenomena kepempimpian perempuan di Jawa Timur diketahui dari perbandingan jumlah kepala daerah perempuan dan laki-laki di Jawa Timur dengan presentase laki-laki 77,6% dan perempuan22,3%. Perempuan yang diusung menjadi kepala daerah dalam hal ini bukan semata sebagai pendamping atau objek untuk menarik minat masyarakat memilih akan tetapi memiliki kesamaan dengan pemimpin laki-laki dengan kompetensi dalam memimpin dan latar belakang pendidikan serta pengalaman berorganisasi yang mumpuni. Akan tetapi tetap saja ditemukan indikasi ketidaksetaraan gender dalam kepemimpinan perempuan di Jawa Timur, dari 17 pempimpin perempuan dirinci hanya 7 orang yang menduduki kursi sebagai bupati/walikota sedangkan jumlah perempuan yang menduduki kursi sebagai wakil bupati/walikota berjumlah 10 orang. Kedudukan perempuan yang mana dalam kepemimpinan hanya sebagai wakil bupati/walikota mengindikasikan ketidaksetaraan gender.  Indikasi ketidaksetaraan gender diketahui dari perempuan sebagai obyek dari system politik yang dibangun secara sepihak oleh kaum laki-laki. Akan tetapi di era reformasi saat ini dapat terlihat keberhasilan kepemimpinan perempuan, terutama pengkaderan perempuan di kalangan NU.

Published: October 2023

Students in the Principles of Biology I course use a lot of course time preparing solutions each week in their coursebased research experience. This experiment was designed to determine the degradation rates of prepared solutions ofvarious plant-based foods (i.e., Napa cabbage, rice, peanuts, and apple) under refrigeration as a means of reducing theamount of time for solution preparation. Scaling from the original lab procedures, approximately sixty milliliters offiltrate were prepared from the listed foods and testing was conducted on a thrice-weekly schedule. The concentrationof proteins and carbohydrates were measured using the Bradford’s assay and Benedict’s test, respectively. The datarevealed a noticeable trend in degradation in protein for all the samples. The rice sample proved to be an outlier witha marked increase in reducing sugars, while the other samples gradually decreased.
Optimized Approach for Image Design Processing in Optical Networks: A Comparative Study
Authors: Hu Yunjie , Yang Fan
Published: October 2023

Deep space detection and remote sensing both require optical imaging devices. The optical imaging system often needs a bigger aperture mirror to attain high spatial resolution. As a result, several novel optical imaging systems, such as big segmented mirror telescopes, large aperture membrane diffractive optical telescopes, and others, have been researched in recent years. Real-time wavefront measurement is not required for the wavefront sensorless (WFSless) applied optics (AO) approach. The wavefront corrector is directly regulated via feedback following an image quality measure of the far-field image to correct for wavefront aberration. Integrating artificial neural networks (ANN) and deep learning plays a vital role in developing WFSless AO systems. This paper evaluated various important aspects to provide an in-depth review of the state-of-the-art machine learning-based algorithms deployed in WFSless AO systems. Finally, the applications and prospects were outlined.

Published: October 2023

Purpose of the study: to show the significance of ultrasound diagnostics in assessing the dynamics of the spleen mass coefficient in children of various age against the background of a chronic form of EBV virus.

Materials and methods. The study was performed on 146 children aged 3 to 18 years suffering from chronic EBV virus. Depending on age, the children were divided into 3 groups. Group 1 included 63 patients aged 3 to 7 years; Group 2 consisted of 28 children aged 8 to 11 years; Group 3 included 55 children aged 12 to 18 years. The clinical, laboratory and ultrasound examination was conducted including ultrasound of the spleen with the further determination of its mass coefficient (SMC).

Results. In the acute period of EBV virus, children of all age groups revealed an increase in SMC, while the maximum increase was observed in children aged 3 to 7 years and amounted to 6,88. Against the background of a complete clinical and laboratory recovery in this age group, the SMC remained at the level of 4.66 and did not reach the average values of healthy children of the same age. The follow-up dynamics for 15–18 months demonstrated the normalization of the SMC to the average values of healthy patients in accordance with their age (in children aged 12 years and older).

Findings. Children in the age group from 3 to 7 years old had the maximum value of the spleen mass coefficient, both in the acute period and after complete clinical and laboratory recovery. The use of ultrasound technique with the assessment of the spleen mass coefficient in the chronic course of EBV virus allows expanding and determining the children contingent for further dynamic monitoring for prevention of possible complications.
Diagnostic imaging in determining the signs of possible bleeding from gastric varicose veins (literature review)
Authors: Yagubova K. V. , Yudin A. L. , Afanas`eva N. I. , Yumatova E. A.
Published: October 2023

Annotation. Gastric varicose veins are one of the common causes of gastrointestinal bleeding in patients with portal hypertension. Bleeding of this localization has a greater percentage of death and difficulty in achieving hemostasis than bleeding from esophageal varices. This paper discusses the etiology and main aspects of the pathophysiology of portal hypertension, the mechanisms of bleeding, which play an important role in the prevention of complications prevention. The venous outflow from the stomach, variants of porto-systemic collateral anastomoses and types of varicose veins of the stomach itself are presented in sufficient detail. The advantages and disadvantages of diagnostic imaging in the assessment of gastric varicose veins and the possible prediction of the risk of bleeding are demonstrated.

Aim: to analyze the data of foreign and domestic literature on varicose veins of the stomach, to identify criteria that determine the risks of bleeding according to the methods of diagnostic imaging.

Results. Analysis of foreign and domestic literature showed that the problem of diagnosing gastric varicose veins is extremely relevant and requires special consideration of all its various aspects. There are many diagnostic methods with certain advantages and disadvantages. But, in our opinion, the possibilities of non-invasive methods, especially computed tomography, in the diagnosis of varicose veins of the stomach and the prognosis of bleeding from them are underestimated and require further study.
The possibilities of modern radiological modalities in aortic coarctation diagnosis and preoperative planning in infants and young age group children
Authors: Khasanova K. A. , Ternovoy S. K. , Abramyan M. A.
Published: October 2023

Objective. Evaluation of diagnostic value of modern imaging modalities: trans-thoracic echocardiography (TTE), CT-angiography (CTA) and cardio-MRI in diagnosis and preoperative planning of aortic coarctation correction (CoA) in in infants and young age group children.

Materials and methods. 101 pediatric patients (aged 0 to 5 years) with CoA underwent TTE, 98 of them underwent CT, 30 – cardio MRI. On TTE, CTA and cardio-MRI aorta morphometry was performed. The most common anomalies associated with CoA (ventricular septal defect (VSD), patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), aberrant right subclavian artery (ARSA), hypoplastic arch and brachiocephalic vessels anomalies) were assessed.

Results. The overall diagnostic accuracy of TTE, CT and cardiac-MRI in diagnosis of CoA were 89.1%, 95.9%, 86.7% respectively. There was no significant difference in the accuracy in detecting CoA between TTE, CT and MRI (p > 0.05). The accuracy of TTE in determining the brachiocephalic vessels anomalies, ARSA and arch hypoplasia was 84%, 93% and 85.3%, respectively. The accuracy of CT in determining the brachiocephalic vessels anomalies, ARSA and arch hypoplasia was 100%, 100% and 98% and cardio-MRI: 97.1%, 98.4% and 96.8%, respectively.

Conclusion. TTE is a widely available and safe method, it has a high diagnostic value in determining CoA. Due to limitations in visualization of all parts of the aortic arch and the detection of concomitant anomalies, TTE cannot be the final method in planning the CoA correction. CT and MRI of the heart, as a TTE, are effective methods in the diagnosis of CoA, however, in the assessment of extracardiac anomalies, they equally show a significantly more accurate result.

Taking into account the difficulties in conducting MRI of the heart in children under one year and younger age group, the need for a longer stay in anesthesia, the lack of additional diagnostically significant information in comparison with CT of the heart, cardio-MRI is not the method of choice in the primary diagnosis and preoperative planning of correction of CoA in children under one year and younger age group requiring the use of an anesthetic aid for the duration of the scan. Cardio-MRI may be the method of choice in preoperative planning of CoA in small children with absolute contraindications to the radiocontrast agent.

Objectives: to compare the consistency of echocardiographic Vmr and FR obtained by PISA and volumetric methods with Vmr and FR obtained by MRI in patients with secondary MR with reduced LV EF.

Materials and methods. The analysis included data from 433 patients with secondary mitral regurgitation with reduced LV EF (less than 35%). The patients were divided into 2 groups: Group 1 – 286 patients with an average age of 64 ± 10 years, in whom the calculation of Rvol and RF was carried out by the PISA method. Group 2 – 147 patients with an average age of 63 ± 11 years, in whom the calculation of Rvol and RF was carried out by the volumetric method.

Results. A moderate correlation was found between the indicators obtained by MRI and echocardiography, regardless of the method used, volumetric method Rvol r = 0.54 p = 0.01 and RF r = 0.56, p = 0.01, PISA method Rvol, r = 0.36, p = 0.01 and RF, r = 0.3, p = 0.01. The agreement in MR severity categorical scores between PISA and MRI was 27% in the diagnosis of severe mitral regurgitation and 50% in the diagnosis of moderate MR. The consistency in categorical MR severity scores between volumetric and MRI was 46% in the diagnosis of severe mitral regurgitation and 65% in the diagnosis of moderate MR. In the Bland–Altman analysis, the average difference in Rvol between PISA and MRI was 7.6 ± 13 ml with coincidence limits (30; –25 ml), the average difference in Rvol between volumetric and MRI was –2.5 ± 7.3 ml with coincidence limits (–12; 17 ml).

Conclusions. MRI and echocardiography regardless of the method used have only a moderate correlation in the assessment of Rvol and RF in patients with secondary MR with reduced EF. The volumetric method may be the method of choice when calculating quantitative indicators of MR severity, as it has better agreement with MRI data compared to the PISA method.
Development And Implementation of Infiltration Wells in 9 Districts of Sidoarjo Regency, Indonesia
Authors: ZUHDY Akhmad Yusuf
Published: October 2023

The area of ??Sidoarjo Regency consists of 18 districts with a land area of ??around 714,245 km2 and a coastal area of ??around 201,687 km2. The topographical conditions in the Sidoarjo Regency are lowlands with altitudes ranging from 0 to +25 m above sea level, so that certain areas in Sidoarjo Regency show a condition that has the potential to experience flooding problems. Making infiltration wells is one of the most efficient solutions. Infiltration wells are wells or holes on the ground surface that are made to collect rainwater so that it can seep into the ground either through the roofs of buildings, roads and yards. There are 20 points spread across 9 sub-districts in Sidoarjo Regency which, based on field survey reviews, have the potential to experience flooding problems. In this area, infiltration wells will be built. Direct observation in the field is carried out to determine the condition of the area under review and to plan the design and recommendation points to be carried out. In addition to this, soil permeability conditions also need to be analyzed so that the coefficient is known. Primary data collection related to soil type classification was obtained from literacy data and soil type maps in Sidoarjo Regency. Based on direct observation and soil type literacy data, it is recommended that infiltration wells with a depth of 2 meter and a diameter of 1.1 meter be used are buis concrete and a filter system using palm fiber as a filter for sediment and waste so as not to interfere with the infiltration process in the infiltration well. 1 infiltration well can accommodate and absorb ± 1900 liters of water which can reduce flood discharge within 46 to 61 hours depending on the type of soil under review.

Authors: Nam Do Giang
Published: October 2023

Theories of limitations on ownership rights are one of the foremost issues of property law. However, there is a lack of systematic and comprehensive studies on theoretical issues regarding the limitations of ownership rights in Vietnam, especially the issue of the social function of property law. This article aims to fill in this gap by systematically identifying and analyzing several prominent theoretical issues in limitations on ownership rights. Specifically, the article focuses on discussing: i) the new ideas of the qualitative duty/ qualitative obligation; ii) the principle of prohibiting the abuse of rights and the law of nuisance; iii) the need for external limitations on the right to exclude to balance the need for protection of other human rights; iv) the need to reform the traditional rule of limitations on ownership rights to meet the millennium goals of sustainable development.
