Authors: Kumaran Thirunavukkarasu  , Jayashri Padmanaban  , S.A. Ramsankar
Published: November 2022

Vestibular disorders can affect the peripheral or central vestibular systems, controlling and maintaining balance. Several studies have confirmed the high prevalence rate of vestibular disorders in other countries. To our knowledge, only one study has been conducted on benign paroxysmal positional vertigo in eastern India, and limited knowledge on other vestibular disorders in the country. Hence, the present study was conducted at SRM hospital, Kattankulathur, Chengalpattu District, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India, to estimate the overall prevalence of vestibular disorders in a tertiary care hospital between January 2016 and December 2020. The prevalence was identified through a register-based study that examined the case files of those who visited SRM Hospital with complaints related to balance and analyzed them in a retrospective manner. The present study found that 392 individuals with vestibular disorders were among the 214,004 clients. Thus, the prevalence of vestibular disorders according to the present study is 0.18 percent. The salient results of the present study were: Adults are more likely to experience vestibular disorders 323 (0.15%) children 1 (0.0004%), and, adolescents 7 (0.003%). Therefore, the prevalence of vestibular disorders is higher in adults than in other age groups. Prevalence of vestibular disorders was higher in women 236 (0.11%) than in men 156 (0.07%). The prevalence of vestibular disorders based on different types reveals that 311 (0.14%) BPPV is the most prevalent type, followed by 30 (0.014%) Menieres and 15 (0.007%) vestibular neuritis.

W stronę Nowej Szczerości. Konceptualizowanie przemian wrażliwości w najnowszym kinie polskim
Authors: Kiełpiński Łukasz
Published: November 2022

Artykuł jest próbą przeszczepienia wywodzącej się z literaturoznawstwa anglosaskiego kategorii Nowej Szczerości na grunt refleksji o przemianach kina polskiego ostatnich kilku lat. Rozpoznania zostały przedstawione w świetle trendów współczesnej humanistyki i sztuki, by było możliwe udzielenie odpowiedzi na pytanie, jak wobec nich sytuuje się kino polskie. Na przykładzie filmów Cicha noc (reż. Piotr Domalewski, 2017), Zabij to i wyjedź z tego miasta (reż. Mariusz Wilczyński, 2019) oraz Wszystkie nasze strachy (reż. Łukasz Ronduda, Łukasz Gutt, 2021) autor stara się pokazać rosnące zainteresowanie takimi dyspozycjami afektywnymi bohaterów filmowych jak czułość, podatność na zranienie i troska. Proponowane rozumienie Nowej Szczerości w kontekście kina polskiego odnosi się do filmów, których twórcy podzielają obecne w polskiej debacie publicznej przekonanie o polaryzacji społecznej i kryzysie wspólnoty, a zarazem sugerują inny – reparacyjny, niosący nadzieję – model relacyjności.

The work presents the results of experimental studies of thermal deformations of phosphate raw materials, which have a significant impact on the progress of chemical and energy technological processes of thermal treatment in roasting conveyor and agglomeration machines. Influence on the value of thermal deformations of chemical and mineralogical composition of phosphate raw materials supplied for processing was revealed. Parameters of thermal deformation during heating are determined taking into account heating rate. It has been found that thermal deformations in the region of high temperatures contribute to softening and melting of phosphate materials, thereby contributing to negative gas dynamics processes in the dense layer of phosphorite pellets on the sintering machine conveyor or in the sintering layer on the agglomeration machine belt
Effect of Construction Wastes as Coarse Aggregates in Cement Concrete: A Review
Authors: Kamal Mia MD
Published: November 2022

The global economy depends on the building industry. Rapid building growth creates global worries about waste. Construction and demolition waste (CDW) negatively affect costs, energy, productivity, the environment, and society. Planning and storing building trash may reduce these harmful consequences. On local construction sites, waste, poor site management, and resource loss are common. The way a structure is built, how materials and equipment are transported, how employees behave, how a firm is handled, how the site is set up, and how resources are procured all contribute to construction waste, which in turn contributes significantly to the degradation of the environment due to indiscriminate disposals. This study takes a look at the mechanical properties of CDW while conducting the research, credible academic sources were located on Google Scholar, SCOPUS, the Web of Science, IEEE Xplore, and Science Direct. The publications were narrowed down to only those that were most relevant to the study's aims. After reviewing these, the authors focused on just the 49 journal articles, 15 related books, and 7 government publications that were most relevant to the research.

Authors: Kopernik Magdalena , Dyrda Karina , Kurtyka Przemysław , Major Roman
Published: November 2022

Purpose: The goal of the present study was the development of discrete phase model to simulate the phenomenon of backfilling a morphologically complex surface by red blood cells (RBCs) in a flow microchannel and to anticipate the conditions of forming a pseudointima. The objective of the experimental studies that inspired the development of the simulation was to create a surface that stimulates the formation of the pseudointima layer. Methods: The finite volume method (FVM) and discrete particle method (DPM) were applied to develop the target model. In addition, a mixture model and a roughness model of bottom layer were tested in the present study to show their influence on simulation the phenomenon of backfilling a morphologically complex surface by RBCs in a flow microchannel. Results: Numerical models were developed including: a) FVM models to compare the effect of applying boundary conditions with/without roughness and cubes, as well as the analysis of their influence on blood velocity and shear stress; b) mixture models to compare the effect of applying different boundary conditions and cubes on computed results; c) DPM models to compare the effect of applying and not applying roughness as a boundary condition; d) DPM models with a morphologically complex surface and RBCs collisions to present RBCs concentration, velocity and time distributions during flow in a channel. Conclusions: The analysis carried out for the developed numerical models indicates that DPM model with cubes computes the best results. It also shows the backfilling of a morphologically complex surface of the bottom microchannel with RBCs.
Comparison of the optoelectronic BTS Smart system and IMU-based MyoMotion system for the assessment of gait variables
Authors: Bartoszek Amadeusz , Struzik Artur , Jaroszczuk Sebastian , Woźniewski Marek , Pietraszewski Bogdan
Published: November 2022

Purpose: Although inertial measurement unit (IMU)-based systems have been validated against optoelectronic systems for recording joint kinematics, the accuracy of each system must be evaluated, and measurements from different systems cannot be easily compared. Therefore, this study compared the joint angles recorded using the IMU-based MyoMotion system and the optoelectronic BTS Smart-DX 700 system during Nordic walking. Methods: The study subject, a long-time Nordic walking instructor, was assigned to walk 12 m/trial (14 trials with 5 sampled gait cycles) at a velocity preferred for Nordic walking. The trials were simultaneously recorded by both systems. The instantaneous lower (ankle, knee, hip) and upper (shoulder, elbow, wrist) limb joint angles were recorded. Results: The joint angles from MyoMotion were significantly larger or smaller (depending on the joint and plane) than those from BTS. Conclusions: Joint angles measured by MyoMotion are not interchangeable with values from BTS, and IMU-recorded values should be interpreted carefully. However, MyoMotion can still provide information about intra-individual changes based on the joint angle profiles, e.g., following Nordic walking training.

Authors: Ammarilis Murastami  , Primisawitri Pratiwi Prasetya
Published: November 2022

Background: Seborrheic keratoses are benign intraepidermal neoplasms arising from epidermal keratinocytes. Age and UV exposure have a role in the course of the disease. Seborrheic keratosis consists of several types of cells, and transformation into various epithelial tumors originating from the same cell type can occur. Therefore, basal cell carcinoma may arise from the basaloid cells, which is the most commonly reported malignant neoplasm in seborrheic keratosis. Various treatment modalities are available to treat seborrheic keratoses. We report a case report of seborrheic keratosis resembling basal cell carcinoma and treated using surgical excision with the advancement flap technique.

Case presentation: A 76-year-old man came with complaints of itchy, blackish-brown lumps on his left ear 3 months ago. On examination of the dermatological status on the helix auricula sinistra, there was a solitary nodule of blackish brown color with a diameter of 1cm x 1cm x 1cm and an ulcer with an uneven surface, well-defined, telangiectatic (+). An examination of the biopsy showed the results of seborrheic keratosis, keratotic type. The management of this case is excision with an advancement flap.

Conclusion: Seborrheic keratosis is one of the most common benign skin tumors that occur in old age. Excision with an advancement flap showed good clinical improvement.

Authors: Syam M. Ridjal Adelansyah , Muzakkir Abd. Kahar
Published: November 2022

This study will examine and analyze the status and position of the SHM of Condominium Units in the building Blok-A of Makassar Mall after a fire. This research combines normative juridical and empirical research methods. The primary data were collected using direct interviews, while the secondary data was collected using literature study techniques. The data obtained in this research were then analyzed qualitatively. The results show that the SHM of Condominium Units in building Blok-A of Makassar Mall is still in the status quo. Meanwhile, the fire phenomenon and implementation of the construction of the new building Blok-A of Makassar Mall cannot be qualified as a requirement for the removal of the SHM of Condominium Units. In this case, implementing that construction is a form of PT. MTIR’s obligation to the Makassar Municipal Government based on the agreement held under the BOT system. In contrast, PT. MTIR made efforts to usurp the rights owned by traders as holders of SHM of Condominium Units in the building Blok-A of Makassar Mall. Therefore, it is recommended that the Makassar Municipal Government re-evaluate the involvement of PT. MTIR as the Holder of the Right to Build for Makassar Mall Shopping Center. In addition, it is recommended that PT MTIR register for the transfer of the right based on Government Regulation No. 24 of 1997 if they continue to impose their will to become the holder of the SHM of Condominium Units in building Blok-A of Makassar Mall. Furthermore, it is recommended that law enforcement agencies conduct investigations related to the Collaboration Agreement No. 44/511.2/SP/HK along with the accompanying addendums. In this case, traders must get legal certainty and protection as holders of SHM of Condominium Units in the building Blok-A of Makassar Mall.

CASES OF EXPRESSIONISM IN MODERN DRAMATURGY AND THEATER (ON THE EXAMPLE OF PLAYS BY T. LETTS, V. SIGAREV)
Authors:   Samara State University of Social Sciences and Education, Radaeva E.A.
Published: November 2022

This article analyzes the plays of American and Russian authors (T. Letts "August. Osage County", V. Sigarev "Ladybugs Return to Earth") for the reception of expressionist dramaturgy and theater. The author uses a system-cultural approach with elements of the case method (situational analysis). As a result of the study, the author comes to the conclusion that in the considered plays, despite the mass of mental and worldview differences of their authors, the difference in the creative method of the latter and in the problems of their works, the socio-historical conditions in which the plays were created, an expressionist tradition is found ( to a greater or lesser extent) - in the attraction to intimacy, existential situations, the problem of freedom, the theme of fathers and children, at the level of acting, in the absence of an optimistic perspective and the general expressionist concept of man and the world, designated by Yu.B. Borev (“individuality, confused by the chaos of the world”). The choice was justified by the popularity of the above authors and their works among the domestic audience, as well as the presence of international awards. The artistic originality of the works, in the author's opinion, is due to the complex and paradoxical interaction of expressionist aesthetics with the realistic method.

Authors: Günaydın Sinem , Aykurt Candan
Published: November 2022

Tiller leaf anatomical features of nine Alopecurus species collected from high mountainous areas in Turkey were evaluated in the present study. Detailed leaf anatomical descriptions of the studied taxa and an identification key generated using the anatomical features are given. Clustering and principal coordinate analysis (PCA) methods were applied based on a total of 14 leaf anatomical characters. Anatomical differences between species were detected and anatomical characters of taxonomic interest were identified in this genus. With clustering analyses, a UPGMA tree was obtained to show the relationship between the species studied. Based on the results of PCA, the arrangement of adaxial sclerenchyma cells, the number of adaxial ribs, the number of abaxial sclerenchyma strands, the size of epidermal cells and the number of vascular bundles are designated as the most reliable characters to separate the species.

Published: November 2022

Drought stress is a major environmental factor limiting plant growth. Selection of drought-tolerant plants is of critical importance in vegetation restoration and forestation programs. Alnus subcordata and Acer velutinum are two valuable, dominant, and endemic species in the Hyrcanian forests. There are fast-growing species and significant diffuse-porous hardwood in afforestation and reforestation. One-year old seedlings of both species were exposed to four water shortage treatments (100, 75, 50 and 25% of field capacity (FC) chosen as control, mild, moderate, and severe) for 12 weeks. Thereafter, their morphological characteristics such as height and basal area, total and organs biomass (root, stem, and leaf), leaf area (LA), specific leaf area (SLA), leaf area ratio (LAR), as well as physiological and biochemical characteristics such as relative water content (RWC), content of chlorophyll, free proline and malondialdehyde (MDA), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) and peroxidase (POD) activity were measured. The results showed that when exposed to reduced water availability, plants’ height, basal diameter, total and organs biomass, LA, LAR, RWC and chlorophyll content decreased, but their proline concentration, MDA content, SOD, and POD activity increased in both species. The root to shoot ratio (R/S) and root mass ratio (RMR) increased at 50 and 25% FC treatments in A. subcordata, whereas no significant difference was found in A. velutinum under drought treatments. SLA increased significantly at 50% FC in A. velutinum and decreased in A. subcordata under drought treatments compared to control treatment. A. velutinum showed more proline content, RWC, POD, and lower increase in MDA content than A. subcordata under moderate treatment. Therefore, A. velutinum appears to possess a better mechanism to cope drought stress. The drought tolerance of A. velutinum may enhance its potential for climatic adaptations under drier conditions with the ongoing climatic change.
Effect of excess boron on growth, membrane stability, and functional groups of tomato seedlings
Authors: Radi Abeer A. , Salam Hussein Kh. , Hamada Afaf M. , Farghaly Fatma A.
Published: November 2022

With the scarcity of good quality water, plants like tomatoes will be more susceptible to excess boron (EB) in Mediterranean regions. The effects of EB on the growth, free, semi-bound, and bound boron (B) concentrations, and macromolecules of the Solanum lycopersicum L. cultivar Castle Rock, were investigated in this study. Seedlings were exposed to four levels of EB using boric acid. The results manifested that EB inhibited tomato growth, total water content, and photosynthetic pigments. EB harmed the membrane stability, as seen by increased potassium (K) leakage, UV absorbance metabolites, and electrolyte conductivity (EC) in leaf disc solution. EB raised concentrations of free, semi-bound, and bound forms of B in seedlings. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) data revealed that EB induced uneven wax deposition, altered the shape of cell walls, and lowered cellulose synthesis in seedlings. EB affected the amide I and amide II indicating damage to the protein pools. These results provide new insights into understanding the specific effects of EB on the functional groups of different macromolecules of tomato seedlings.

Berdasarkan hasil penunjukkan bahwa penataan taman kota yang dilaksanakan oleh petugas Dinas Tata Kota dan Pertamanan Kota Gorontalo dilihat dari segi kualitas kerja, efektivitas kerja, komitmen kerja dan responsivitas sudah kurang baik karena masih terdapat beberapa kendala seperti masih rendahnya kualitas kerja petugas yang masih terkesan menunda-nunda pekerjaan, fasilitas tampak sudah tidak berfungsi maupun masih kurang dari segi kuantitas sehingga menyebabkan ketidakpuasan masyarakat, kurang maksimalnya koordinasi antara petugas dengan aparat Dinas Tata Kota dan Pertamanan Kota Gorontalo serta rendahnya responsivitas petugas dalam mengambil inisiatif ketika terjadi masalah dan cenderung menunggu perintah dari pihak Dinas Tata Kota dan Pertamanan Kota Gorontalo.

Saran yang dapat diberikan kepada pihak Dinas Tata Kota dan Pertamanan Kota Gorontalo untuk dapat memperhatikan empat faktor yakni perlu meningkatkan kualitas kerja, efektivitas kerja, komitmen kerja dan responsivitas agar kinerja petugas dalam penataan taman kota menjadi lebih maksimal dan membuat masyarakat senang bermain-main bersama anak-anak mereka.

Teknik pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui wawancara mendalam kepada sejumlah informan, observasi dan pencatatan data sekunder yang berkaitan dengan permasalahan penelitian.

Hasil penelitian tentang sistem pendataan Program Keluarga Harapan di Desa Pongongaila belum optimal. Hal ini terlihat dari banyaknya masyarakat yang memenuhi syarat dan kriteria Program Keluarga Harapan (PKH) tetapi tidak terdata, sebaliknya masyarakat yang yang taraf hidup lebih baik tetapi terdaftar sebagai peserta Program Keluarga Harapan. Sistem verifikasi Program PKH di Desa Pongongaila belum optimal. Hal ini terlihat dari tidak transparannya petugas dalam melakukan kegiatan verifikasi yang menimbulkan kecurigaan masyarakat khususnya masyarakat yang tidak lolos verifikasi. Pengawasan yang dilakukan oleh Unit Pelaksana Program Keluarga Harapan (UPPKH) belum optimal. Hal ini terlihat dari banyak pelanggaran dalam pelaksanaan Program Keluarga Harapan (PKH), baik pelanggaran yang dilakukan oleh petugas dalam melakukan pendataan ataupun verifikasi maupun pelanggaran yang dilakukan oleh masyarakat penerima bantuan Program Keluarga Harapan (PKH) seperti penyalahgunaan dana bantuan yang tidak sesuai dengan peruntukkannya.

Disarankan, perlunya upaya perubahan dalam sistem pendataan khususnya pada petugas dengan melibatkan orang-orang independen atau petugas yang berasal dari luar Desa Pongongaila. Perlunya dilakukan upayan yang terbuka dan jujur dalam sistem verifikasi berkas calon penerima bantuan Program Keluarga Harapan (PKH). Perlunya dilakukan pengawasan secara tuntas dengan melakukan pengecekan kebenaran atas kondisi yang dialami oleh masyarakat calon penerima bantuan Program Keluarga Harapan (PKH)
