Economic Insights to Optimize Chain of Survival in Emergency Response
Authors: Amiry Alaa , ALrousan Sahel
Published: September 2024

Background:
Since economics is a social science studying individuals' behavior, it is plausible to employ its relevant concepts to study human behavior in the immediate response of lay citizens towards emergency incidents. In this context, economics has identified three types of policy lags in fiscal decisions that are of great interest to our study: recognition lag, decision lag, and implementation lag.
Objectives:
This study aims to apply the three policy lags in economics to the concept of ‘chain of survival' (CoS), in the hope of enticing rethinking its first link, and to seek solutions for CoS's optimal activation.
Methods:
This cross-sectional study explores immediate responses to prehospital emergencies through a global online survey in four languages. It assesses how lay citizens recognize medical emergencies and activate the EMS system. Data is analyzed with SPSS v26 while summarizing qualitative variables via frequencies and percentages.
Results:
A total of 239 respondents were recruited in the survey from multiple countries. About 32% of the sample had recognition lag 95% CI of [26.3%, 38.2%]. Lower recognition lag scores were significantly associated with male gender, residing in Europe and Oceania, European and North American nationalities, and first aid training in last 5-10 years. Around 70% of our sample had decision lag 95% CI of [63.6%, 75.3%]. The most statistically significant factor contributing to successful decision to calling for an ambulance was prior first aid training. The average implementation lag score was 46%, which was defined as five minutes delay in calling for an ambulance or more.
Conclusion:
Applying concise terminology to the CoS's first link (i.e. calling EMS) reveals behavioral constrains to an effective and timely activation of the CoS. These findings clarify immediate behaviors at times of emergencies, and inform targeted awareness programs addressing behavioral elements for a successful activation of the EMS system.

Authors: Prabakaran Mary , Jamil Naser , Thomas Rose , Mohanan Mayamol , Jose Anumol , Chandrabose Akila
Published: September 2024

Background:
Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) and Acute Heart Failure (AHF) are severe medical conditions that are closely associated with higher rates of readmissions and mortality in hospitals. These conditions pose an exponential challenge to the health care system and increase patient burden.
Objectives:
This study aims to identify the effect of Telephonic follow-up on readmission and mortality rates in Rashid Hospital due to ACS and AHF.
Methods:
In 2022, we conducted a prospective study. We divided 805 patients admitted with ACS and AHF in Rashid Hospital into two groups and compared the readmission and mortality rates of patients who were followed up with those who were not. The data collection tool included a demographic questionnaire, which was then analyzed by statistical tests and SPSS software.
Results:
There are patients in the follow-up call group versus patients in the no follow-up call group. The patients with follow-up calls had a higher survival rate (98.3%) when compared with the ones who had not been called (93.4%) (p=0.003). Readmission rates for follow-up patients were (7.7%) versus (5.9%) for those without follow-up calls (p=0.429). The study analyzed and investigated the individuals on various other factors but with no statistically significant difference between the two groups.
Conclusion:
The study provides insight into the various factors and their association with patients\' outcomes. Even though the association of readmission rate to follow-up was unremarkable, the mortality rate of patients with follow-up was significantly lower.

Introduction: Endotracheal intubation is a high-risk procedure that can be lifesaving for critically ill or injured patients. Assisted devices, such as the bougie and stylet, are commonly used to improve success rates and reduce complications. The bougie facilitates the passage of the endotracheal tube through the vocal cords while the stylet is inserted into the endotracheal tube prior to intubation. However, there is variation in clinical practice regarding the preference for using these devices in difficult airway management.
Methods: This systematic review and meta-analysis included randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that compared the efficacy of bougie versus stylet in tracheal intubation. Medline, Embase, Cochrane Central of Controlled Trials, and Clinical trials.gov were searched for studies discussing the same topic. The primary outcome was the first-attempt intubation success rate between the bougie and stylet. Our secondary outcomes were to compare the duration of intubation and the complication rates between bougie and stylet.
Results: A total of 7 RCTs that enrolled participants (number) were eligible. The bougie approach had a slightly higher success rate on the first attempt, but there was no significant difference between the method's risk ratio (RR, 1.01; 95% CI, 0.90–1.15). The duration of intubation, pooled analysis indicated a statistically significant reduction in the duration of intubation with the stylet approach compared to the bougie approach (MD, 8.39; 95% CI, 2.87–13.91). Subgroup analysis revealed lower rates of esophageal intubation (RR, 0.65; 95% CI, 0.26–1.61, I2 = 0%) and pneumothorax (RR, 0.94; 95% CI, 0.54–1.66, I2 = 0%) in the bougie group.
Conclusion: This study reported that no significant difference between the use of bougie versus stylet in terms of first-attempt intubation success rates and the complication rates of endotracheal intubation. However, sty let displayed a significantly shorter duration of intubation in comparison to bougie.

Ginkgo biloba is a valuable ornamental gymnosperm plant. To ensure an adequate supply of planting material for this species, measures must be taken to cultivate high-quality seedlings resistant to adverse conditions. Pre-sowing treatment of seeds with metabolically active substances can serve as such a measure. The aim of this study was to investigate the growth processes, leaf apparatus formation, and photosynthetic activity of young Ginkgo biloba plants under the influence of metabolically active substances and their combinations.
Metabolically active substances used to treat ginkgo seeds included vitamin E, ubiquinone-10, paraoxybenzoic acid (POBA), magnesium sulfate (MgSO4), and methionine. Their combinations were also tested: vitamin E + ubiquinone-10, vitamin E + POBA + methionine, and vitamin E + POBA + methionine + MgSO4. The growth biostimulator Stimpo was used for comparison.
It was established that pre-sowing treatment with these metabolically active substances and their combinations contributed to the formation of a more robust photosynthetic apparatus in ginkgo seedlings. MgSO4 and the combination of vitamin E + methionine + POBA + MgSO4 had the most significant effect on stem height. Among single-component substances, ubiquinone-10 and the combination of vitamin E + methionine + POBA + MgSO4 most effectively increased the average number of leaves. All studied combinations of compounds positively impacted the average leaf area, increasing it by 44.5-58% compared to the control. Among single-component substances, vitamin E and MgSO4 were particularly effective in increasing leaf area. Ubiquinone-10 and the combination of vitamin E + methionine + POBA significantly enhanced the content of chlorophyll a and b pigments in the leaves.
The use of metabolically active substances and their combinations during pre-sowing seed treatment is an effective measure to improve the assimilation processes and overall growth of Ginkgo biloba seedlings.

Published: September 2024

Air Conditioner pada umumnya digunakan sebagai pengkondisian udara di dalam ruangan agar mendapatkan kenyamanan termal. Pada sistem Air Conditioner (AC) ada kalor yang dibuang ke lingkungan pada saat refrigerant berada di kondensor tanpa dimanfaatkan. Mempertimbangkan bahwa energi panas yang terbuang di kondenser ini cukup besar, kaji eksperimental dilakukan untuk mengukur efek penggunaan kalor terbuang ini untuk memanaskan air dengan cara menambahkan Heat Exchanger (HE) pada bagian kondensor AC tipe split berukuran ¾ pk dalam meningkatkan kinerja Air Conditioner. Pengujian sistem AC dilakukan selama 60 menit untuk mendinginkan ruangan berukuran 3 m x 5 m hingga temerature di dalamnya mencapai 25,2oC. Dari hasil pengukuran didapatkan rata-rata Coefficient of Performance (COP) untuk AC yang dilengkapi dengan Heat Exchanger adalah 5,99, sedangkan untuk AC standar diperoleh nilai COP rata-rata sebesar 4,98. Hal ini berarti penambahan Heat Exchanger pada AC split dapat menghasilkan peningkatan COP sebesar 20,32%. AC dengan Heat Exchanger juga dapat memghasilkan air hangat dengan temperatur 45,9° C dalam waktu 60 menit.

This study purpose is to seek the determinant factors of anemia in non-pregnant women in Banggai Regency. With a cross-sectional design, we collect data from 308 non-pregnant women through non-probability sampling. Variables collected were age, Body Mass Index (BMI), Middle Upper Arm Circumference (MUAC), abdominal circumference, education, ownership of a healthy latrine, water source for cooking, and daily consumption of iron-source food such as legumes, green vegetables, also fish or meat. Bivariate and logistic regression was used to identify variables that correlate with anemia. The mean age and hemoglobin levels were 30±6.2 years and 12.7±1.5 g/dL, respectively. About 80 (25.97%) of the subjects were anemic. Bivariate analysis shows that water from standardized sources/facilities for cooking, ownership of a healthy latrine, MUAC, daily consumption of legumes, and daily consumption of fish or meat were variables that significantly correlated with anemia (p<0.05). Moreover, after we performed logistic regression, non-pregnant women who did not use standardized clean water for cooking (OR 2.19; p=0.09) and did not consume fish or meat daily (OR 2.28; p=0.02) were at higher risk of having anemia. Determinant factors that significantly correlate with anemia in Banggai Regency's non-pregnant women were water utilization from not-standardized sources/facilities for cooking and not consuming of fish or meat daily. Local governments should include these variables in their new reformulated and innovative stunting-reducing programs. Thus, perhaps they can achieve their expected targets, such as non-anemic pregnant women, which, in the long run, can reduce stunting.

This study aimed to assess the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on food group consumption of complementary feeding in Indonesia. Data were collected using online self-administered questionnaires on Indonesian mothers of children aged 6–23 months. The result showed that households with decreased ability to provide food during the COVID-19 pandemic tended to choose unhealthy food groups on complementary feeding. There were higher odds of unhealthy food consumption, such as sweetened beverages, including fruit juice (OR=3.181; 95% CI:1.788−5.657) and homemade drink with sweeteners (OR=1.652; 95% CI:1.034−2.641); sugar confection (OR=2.066; 95% CI:1.240−3.444); frozen treats (OR=2.270; 95% CI:1.400−3.681), baked or fried confection (OR=2.154; 95% CI:1.435−3.235); fried and salty foods (OR=1.633; 95% CI:1.059−2.517). Meanwhile, the odds of food group consumption which lower during COVID-19 pandemic mostly are animal source foods group, including yogurt (OR=0.297; 95% CI:0.161−0.548); yogurt drink (OR=0.253; 95% CI:0.138−0.464); cheese (OR=0.355; 95% CI:0.230−0.549); eggs (OR=0.675; 95% CI:0.461−0.991); fish or seafood (OR=0.409; 95% CI:0.279−0.600); organ meats (OR=0.304; 95% CI:0.180−0.512); meats (OR=0.339; 95% CI:0.225−0.511); and poultry (OR=0.339; 95% CI:0.225−0.511). However, effective strategy for enhancing complementary feeding quality during pandemic should be formulated.

Authors: Hansen Rudi , Rathleff Michael Skovdal , Brushøj Christoffer , Magnusson S. Peter , Henriksen Marius
Published: September 2024

OBJECTIVES: To identify baseline characteristics that modified the effect of a 12-week quadriceps-focused (QE) vs hip muscle–focused (HE) exercise program on symptoms and physical function, through changes at baseline in the Anterior Knee Pain Scale (AKPS) in patients with PFP.

DESIGN: A secondary analysis of a 26-week randomized trial involving 200 participants with patellofemoral pain.

METHODS: Participants were randomly assigned to a QE or HE program with a duration of 12 weeks. The primary outcome was change from baseline in the AKPS at week 12 and week 26. Subgroups were predefined and based on baseline information: presence of low back, hip, ankle, or bilateral knee pain; body mass index (BMI); sex; age; education; occupation; hypermobility; quadriceps strength; dynamic knee alignment; midfoot mobility; exercise self-efficacy; pain self-efficacy; pain catastrophizing; neuropathic pain; pain duration; and pain severity.

RESULTS: Participants with pain catastrophizing seemed to benefit from HE with a subgroup difference in treatment effect of 8.3 AKPS points at week 12 (95%CI 1.6 to 15.0). At week 26, participants with a baseline BMI above 25 seemed to benefit from HE with a subgroup difference in treatment effect of 11.1 (95%CI 4.8 to 17.4), and participants with severe knee pain at baseline seemed to benefit from QE with a subgroup difference of −9.1 (95% CI: −15.7, −2.6).

CONCLUSION: Hip-focused exercises may provide more benefits than quadriceps-focused exercises among patients with patellofemoral pain and pain catastrophizing or overweight. Quadriceps-focused exercises may provide more benefits than hip-focused exercises for patients with severe knee pain. J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 2024;54(11):732-742.

Clinical and dermoscopic patterns of idiopathic guttate hypomelanosis
Authors: Murugan Kalaiarasi , Thappa Devinder Mohan
Published: September 2024

Depigmented skin lesions are of great concern in society, especially in the Indian subcontinent. These comprise many infective and inflammatory conditions that cause apprehension and anxiety among patients due to the social stigma attached to these conditions. Idiopathic guttate hypomelanosis (IGH) appears similar to many depigmented lesions and differentiation of IGH from these conditions is difficult clinically as well as histopathologically. IGH is one of the common causes of acquired leukoderma. It is also called disseminated lenticular leukoderma. The etiology is yet not clearly delineated, probably multifactorial. Various etiological factors have been proposed including ultraviolet (UV) exposure, post-phototherapy (psoralen and UVA monotherapy, narrowband-UVB), aging, genetic factors, trauma, and autoimmunity. Clinically, it is characterized by multiple, discrete porcelain-white round to oval macules of 2–5 mm average size. It most commonly occurs in the elderly. The most common sites observed are chronically sun-exposed areas such as the arm, pretibial regions, and forearm extensors. It is not easy to differentiate IGH from other hypo and depigmented conditions such as vitiligo, pityriasis versicolor, extragenital lichen sclerosus et atrophicus, guttate morphea, and post-inflammatory hypopigmentation. It poses a diagnostic challenge to dermatologists. One has to differentiate depigmented lesions from vitiligo as it carries tremendous social implications as social stigma, especially in India. Research on dermoscopic evaluation is uncommon in the literature, despite the abundance of clinic-epidemiological and histological studies of IGH. Four dermoscopic patterns, namely, petaloid, amoeboid, feathery, and nebuloid have been described. These patterns are specific to IGH and help clinicians to differentiate many depigmented skin lesions from IGH in clinical practice. Patients often seek cosmetic treatment. There has been no standard therapy for this condition. Newer treatment modalities range from topical agents to procedure-based therapies and have enhanced the therapeutic armamentarium.

Published: September 2024

The authors present the results of a comparative assessment of biogas emissions and chemical composition of filtration waters at facilities of accumulated environmental harm — dumps/landfills of solid municipal waste located in the Arctic and non-Arctic regions of Russia. The analysis shows that biogas emissions at the Arctic sites are approximately 19—23.5 times lower than at sites in constituent entities of the Russian Federation not part of the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation. Sites of accumulated harm in terms of chemical composition of filtration waters and biogas emissions, depending on the stage of biochemical destruction of waste, are in the 4th—5th stages of biodegradation and destruction of waste (phases of stable methanogenesis and assimilation). The authors suggest executive authorities of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, as well as design organizations to use the research results in the development of measures and technical solutions for the elimination of decommissioned dumps/landfills of solid municipal waste.

Authors:   Krylov State Research Centre, Dobrodeev A.A. , Sazonov K.E. ,   Krylov State Research Centre
Published: September 2024

The study presents estimates of the required power capacity of superships intended for year-round operation in the Eastern sector of the Arctic, using the example of bow-first operation following an icebreaker in a narrow ice channel. The authors pay particular attention to the contour shapes, the going mode along the ice channel, as well as the vessel ice class. The study results prove that the use of large-tonnage vessels with a moderate icebreaking bow will require a noticeable increase in the propulsion power to ensure regular navigation at a speed that is effective for the operation of the maritime transport system.
Time in Russian Non-Fairytale Folklore About Treasures
Authors: Котельникова Н.Е.
Published: September 2024

Статья посвящена рассмотрению категории времени в русской фольклорной несказочной прозе о кладах. Такая исследовательская задача была поставлена впервые. Образ клада многогранен, многослоен и геторогенен, и в устных рассказах он раскрывается в различных ракурсах. При вербализации представлений о скрытых сокровищах как о сущности, относящейся к миру мифологических персонажей, актуализируется циклическое время, прежде всего календарное и суточное. Если речь идет о захоронении сокровищ, то, как правило, происходит локализация на линейной темпоральной шкале. Связь потаенных богатств с определенными историческими лицами и/или событиями, относящимися к далекому прошлому, указывает на определенный период условного фольклорно-исторического времени. События в рассказах о более близких рассказчику людях и временах локализуются на шкале более реального исторического времени. В повествованиях о контактах человека с кладами всех видов описываемое время соотносится с линией жизни рассказчика или того человека, который позиционируется в качестве авторитетного источника.

This article concerns the category of time in Russian non-magical prose folk tales about buried treasure, which is analyzed here for the first time. The image of buried treasure is multidimensional, multilayered and heterogeneous, and spoken narratives present it from various angles. When the idea of a hidden hoard is verbalized as something belonging to the world of mythological characters, cyclic time — predominantly calendar and daily time — gains relevance. However, if burying treasure is discussed, in most cases it is localized on a linear temporal scale. The connection between hidden treasure and particular historical figures or events relating to a distant past indicates a specific period of imaginary folklore-historical time. In the stories about people and a time nearer to the narrator, the events are localized on a scale closer to real historical time. In narratives about a person’s contact with any kind of treasure the time described corresponds to the life of the narrator or a person positioned as a reliable source.
Girls’ Christmas Fortune-Telling in the Russian Mining Traditions of the Komi Republic
Authors: Низовцева С.Г.
Published: September 2024

В статье рассмотрим святочные гадания, рассказы о которых записаны в трех русских заводских поселениях (Кажым, Нючпас, Нювчим) Республики Коми. Появление русских поселков на территории Коми края связано с организацией чугунолитейного производства в середине XVIII в. и переселением крестьян из северных и центральных губерний России. Корпус текстов о гадательных ритуалах записывался сотрудниками сектора фольклора ИЯЛИ ФИЦ Коми НЦ УрО РАН в период 2008–2022 гг. Статья является продолжением цикла публикаций о календарной обрядности русских заводских традиций республики и завершает обзор зимнего рождественского периода народного календаря заводчан. В данной работе рассмотрено функционирование святочных гаданий в традиции; выполнен анализ девичьих гаданий на замужество; в контексте общеславянских представлений проанализирована символика предметных и природных реалий, вовлеченных в святочные ритуалы; обозначены сходные варианты гаданий из соседних русских (шире — славянских) традиций. Сравнительно-типологический анализ показывает, что большинство вариантов гадательных ритуалов, записанных в заводских традициях, обнаруживают сходство с гаданиями из северных и центральных районов России, что вполне может указывать на исходные «материнские» традиции заводчан, с одной стороны, и универсальность способов и видов гаданий — с другой.

This article examines Christmastide fortune-tellings, stories about which were recorded in three Russian mining settlements of the Komi Republic (Kazhym, Nyuchpas, and Nyuvchim). The appearance of Russian settlements in the Komi Territory is associated with the organization of a iron foundry in the middle of the eighteenth century and the resettlement of peasants from the northern and central provinces of Russia. The corpus of texts on fortunetelling rituals was recorded mainly by employees of the Folklore Sector of the of the Institute of Language, Literature and History, Federal Research Center, Komi Scientific Center, Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences in the period 2008–2022. The article is a continuation of a series of publications on the calendar rites of Russian mining villages of the republic and completes the review of the winter, Christmastide, period. This article examines the functioning of Christmastide fortune-telling in the tradition, and in particular analyzes girls’ fortune-telling about marriage. It examines the symbolism of objects and natural phenomena involved in these Yuletide rituals in the context of pan-Slavic ideas; similar variants of fortune-telling from neighboring Russian (and wider  — Slavic) traditions are suggested. Comparative-typological analysis shows that most variations of fortune-telling rituals recorded in mining traditions have similarities with fortune-telling in the northern and central regions of Russia, which may well indicate workers’ original “mother” traditions, on the one hand, and the adaptability of methods and types of fortune-telling, on the other.
DYNAMICS OF THE DISTRIBUTION OF RADIONUCLIDES OF THE CHERNOBYL RELEASE IN THE WOOD OF THE MAIN FOREST-FORMING SPECIES IN THE TERRITORY OF THE CENTRAL FEDERAL DISTRICT OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION
Authors: Цветнова О.Б. , Щеглов А.И.
Published: September 2024

В статье рассматриваются особенности динамики распределения основных радионуклидов чернобыльского выброса (137Cs, 90Sr) в древесине ствола у основных лесообразующих пород на территории ряда областей Центрального Федерального округа РФ (Калужской и Брянской) в начальный и отдаленный периоды после выпадений. Показано, что в целом на начальных этапах в распределении удельной активности 137Cs по высоте ствола у хвойных и мелколиственных пород отмечается тренд снижения с минимальными показателями в срединной части ствола; у широколиственных пород, напротив, прослеживается тренд нарастания удельной активности 137Cs от вершины к комлю. В отдаленный период после выпадений в распределении по высоте ствола 137Cs и 90Sr отчетливо прослеживается тренд снижения их удельной активности от вершины дерева к комлю. Указывается, что общепринятый метод отбора проб загрязненной древесины для оценки соответствия допустимым уровням нахождения радионуклидов, проводимый на высоте ствола 1,3 м, не вполне адекватно отражает уровни ее загрязнения. Для более точной оценки отбор проб целесообразно проводить по всей высоте ствола для получения показателя средневзвешенной удельной активности радионуклидов в стволовой древесине в целом.

The article examines the features of the dynamics of the distribution of the main radionuclides of the Chernobyl release (137Cs, 90Sr) in the trunk wood of the main forest-forming rocks in the territory of a number of regions of the Central Federal District of the Russian Federation (Kaluga and Bryansk) in the initial and long-term periods after precipitation. It is shown that, in general, at the initial stages in the distribution of the specific activity of 137Cs along the trunk height in coniferous and small-leaved species, there is a downward trend with minimal indicators of the middle part of the trunk; in broadleaved rocks, on the contrary, there is a trend of an increase in the specific activity of 137Cs from the top to the bottom. In the long-term period after precipitation, the distribution of trunk height of 137Cs and 90Sr clearly shows a trend of a decrease in their specific activity from the top of the tree to the top. It is indicated that the generally accepted method of sampling contaminated wood to assess compliance with acceptable levels of radionuclides, carried out at a trunk height of 1.3 m, does not adequately reflect the levels of its contamination. For a more accurate assessment, it is advisable to carry out sampling along the entire height of the trunk to obtain an indicator of the weighted average specific activity of radionuclides in the stem wood as a whole.

A recent experimental report has identified the formation of C–N hemi-bonded pyridine dimer cation following vacuum ultraviolet near-threshold photoionization [J. Phys. Chem. Lett. 2021, 12, 4936–4943]. Herein, the dynamics and consequent reactivity of the pyridine dimer cation was investigated employing Born-Oppenheimer Molecular Dynamics (BOMD) simulations. A anti-parallel π-stacked pyridine dimer in the neutral ground state is transformed to a non-covalently interacting C–H∙∙∙N hydrogen-bonded structure which can lead to proton transfer in the cationic state. Additionally, C–N and N–N bonded adducts were formed in the cationic state. Further, metastable C–H∙∙∙H–C bonded cationic was observed, which rearranges to N–N bonded adduct. In contrast to the experimental observation, migration of the proton to the α position was not observed in the C–N bonded adduct owing to a high barrier of about 2 eV. The observed trends in the molecular association, proton transfer and the formation of C–N and N–N bonded adducts is a consequence of roaming dynamics of one pyridine moiety over the other in the cationic state.

Proper formulation of systems containing plasmonic and photochromic units, such as gold nanoparticles and azobenzene derivatives, yields materials and interfaces with synergic functionalities. Moreover, gold nanoparticles are known to accelerate the Z-E isomerization of azobenzene molecules in the dark. However, very little is known about the light-driven, plasmon-assisted Z-E isomerization of azobenzene compounds. Additionally, most of the azobenzene-gold hybrids are prepared with nanoparticles of small, isotropic shapes and azobenzene ligands covalently linked to the surface of nanostructures. Herein, a formulation of a novel system combining azobenzene derivative, gold nanorods, and cellulose nanofibers is proposed. The system's structural integrity relies on electrostatic interactions among components instead of covalent linkage. Cellulose, a robust scaffold, maintains the material's functionality in water and enables monitoring of the material's plasmonic-photochromic properties upon irradiation and at elevated temperatures without gold nanorods' aggregation. Experimental evidence supported by statistical analysis suggests that the optical properties of plasmonic nanometal enable indirect control over the Z-E isomerization of the photochromic component with near-infrared irradiation by triggering the thermoplasmonic effect. The proposed hybrid material's dual plasmonic-photochromic functionality, versatility, and ease of processing render a convenient starting point for further advanced azobenzene-related research and 3D printing of macroscopic light-responsive structures.

En segundo, desde unaperspectiva problemático-crítica, argumenta por qué elconcepto de Dios, aunque legítimamente postulado, noes, sin embargo, intrínsecamente necesario al propio sistemaespeculativo. Finalmente, desde una perspectivahermenéutica, se explicita la postulación que hace Whiteheadde un Dios metafísico como resultante no de unanecesidad sistemática objetiva, sino de un acto subjetivode fe en el sentido teleológico del universo.

Authors: Pliekhov V.A.
Published: September 2024

Background. A review of the specialized literature gives an idea of the dissociation between the significant prevalence of polymorphic forms of schizotypal disorder and the lack of scientific development of psychotherapy methods for these conditions. Purpose. To develop and test the effectiveness of the system of psychotherapy of affective disorders in patients with schizotypal disorder. Materials and Methods. According to the results of preliminary clinical anamnestic, clinical, psychopathological and psychodiagnostic studies of a contingent of 100 patients with schizotypal disorder with affective disorders of various spectrums, a system of psychotherapy for the phenomena under study was developed. To evaluate the effectiveness of the developed therapeutic measures, we used SF-36 questionnaire for determining quality of life indicators.

Results. The developed system of psychotherapy is implemented in two consecutive stages: the first one is aimed at affective manifestations directly, and the second one is aimed at the second stage is aimed at developing patients’ skills of perception of subjective signs of deterioration of the underlying disease. According to the results of the analysis, it was found that patients who received psychotherapeutic treatment within the developed system had significantly (p≤0.001) higher quality of life scores 3 months after the treatment treatment compared to patients who did not receive such support: the total score was 63.83±0.35 and 60.98±0.39 points, respectively. Significant differences were found between the study groups in such components of quality of life as «Life activity», «Social activity», «Social functioning» and «Mental health». Conclusions. A two-stage system of psychotherapy of affective disorders has been developed in patients with schizotypal disorder, based on the principles of personalized medicine, the first stage of which is aimed at the direct reduction of affective disorders, the second – on the acquisition of new skills of self-analysis and detection of indirect signs of deterioration of their condition, which, in combination with adequate psychopharmacologic support allowed to improve their quality of life.

Background. Today, 3.8% of the world’s population suffers from depression. There is no doubt that depression has an impact on a person’s physical health, and it has also been proven that this relationship is reciprocal and manifests itself through the «vicious circle» of somatized depression. Depressive disorder, acquiring the character of somatized depression, increases pathological changes in the patient’s body and immunological disorders. The disease of COVID-19 is accompanied by circulatory disturbances in the central nervous system, which can potentially lead to the development of a depressive-anxiety disorder. Purpose – study the psycho-emotional state of patients with COVID-19, of varying degrees of severity. Materials and methods. We conducted a survey of 60 patients with COVID-19 with a mild and moderately severe course of the disease, from the 10th to the 14th day of the disease, as well as healthy participants of the control group. The HADS anxiety and depression scale and the PSS-10 stress intensity scale were used to assess the severity of psychological disorders. Calculations were made using the STATISTICA module software (StatPlus 2009) based on the Office 365 program. Results. It was established that patients with a mild course of the disease had a high level of anxiety and a low level of stress pressure, which is associated with worries about the course of the disease and its consequences, but there is no «stress of waiting» for the onset of the disease. The low level of depressive disorders may be related to the absence of a significant microcirculation disturbance in the capillaries of the brain. And patients with a moderately severe course of the disease, complicated by pneumonia, on the contrary, demonstrated the highest level of assessment of depressive disorders and stress pressure, both from the high category, which, in our opinion, is related to the hyperproduction of pro-inflammatory cytokines and their negative impact on microcirculation. Conclusions. Thus, it was established that a more severe course of COVID-19 corresponds to a deeper level of depressive disorders, which indicates the need to monitor the psychological state of patients during inpatient treatment and timely appointment of therapy.

В статье рассматривается задача применения деревьев решений и их ансамблей (лесов решений) в задаче классификации кредитных организаций, как объектов экономической безопасности. Хотя деревья решений и их ансамбли успешно применяются в банковском секторе, для автоматизированной идентификации неблагонадежных кредитных организаций деревья решений и их ансамбли ранее не использовались. Классификация кредитных организаций проводилась на основе формы банковской отчетности № 101. В результате проведенного анализа были выделены ключевые показатели деятельности кредитных организаций, а именно «Прибыль», «Счета в Банке России», «Ценные бумаги». С учетом этих показателей для модели CART была получена точность классификации, составившая 85 %. Для моделей Random Forest, Adaboost и Xgboost использовались все 23 показателя финансовой отчетности (форма 101), а достигнутая при этом точность составила 83, 80 и 80 %, соответственно, решена актуальная научно-практическая задача – разработаны математические модели, позволяющие идентифицировать высокорисковые кредитные организации и прогнозировать риски отзыва у них лицензий. В ходе их применения идентифицирован список потенциально неблагонадежных кредитных организаций, на которые рекомендуется обратить пристальное внимание органам государственной власти.

The absorption of electromagnetic waves emitted by wireless devices in human tissues is quantified by the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) measured for 1g or 10g of body tissues. The primary objective of this research is to identify an effective shield material that can minimize the impact and potential harm of electromagnetic waves on human tissues. The study involves the design of a single radiator Microstrip antenna operating at 28 GHz and the modelling of human tissue layers. SAR calculations for 1g of body tissues are performed based on the distance between the antenna and the head model. To evaluate the influence of antenna position on the head model, SAR calculations are conducted using two different approaches. In the first approach, the head model is positioned on the patch radiator side, while in the second approach, it is placed on the ground plane side. The aim is to determine which configuration yields lower SAR values. Furthermore, SAR calculations are reanalysed by incorporating shielding materials onto the Microstrip antenna. Three different absorbed materials are used as shields, and their impact on SAR reduction and radiation parameters of the Microstrip antenna are evaluated. The objective is to identify the shield material that achieves the highest SAR reduction while minimally affecting the radiation parameters of the antenna.

The impact on teenagers, if they experience anemia, is that it disrupts their ability to learn, reduces their physical exercise ability and body fitness, reduces individual work capacity, reduces the body's immune function, and reduces the ability to regulate body temperature. This research aimed to analyze factors related to anemia in adolescent girls. The research method used quantitative with a cross-sectional approach. The population in the study were all 50 Adolescents who were checked for Hb in March and had moderate anemia. The sample was 44 respondents taken by purposive sampling technique. The instrument used a questionnaire to determine the length of the menstrual period, nutritional status, knowledge, and iron intake. The research used an ordinal distribution used an ordinal regression test. The research results showed that the variable length of menstruation was 0.879 with p=0.348 (> 0.05), the nutritional status variable was 0.231 with p=0.631 (>0.05), the knowledge level variable was 4.407 with p=0.021 (>0.05) and the nutritional intake variable was 11.575 with p=0.001 (<0.05). This meant that the level of knowledge and nutritional intake was related to the level of anemia. Meanwhile, the length of menstruation and nutritional status were not related to the level of anemia. For future researchers, it is expected to provide interventions related to knowledge including individual or group counseling as well as providing a healthy lunch menu program to increase iron intake in adolescents.
