Published: June 2022

There is no doubt that modern technologies have greatly influenced the business world in recent years. All technological applications brought by Industry 4.0 have provided more mechanization and started processes that do not involve people. This revolution is at the initial stage of changing the world order. People can now imagine a world dominated by robots at work. In the 18th century, many people could not have imagined that such a thing would happen. Over the years, humans have perfected the technologies that robots tend to work on. In this article, the effects of the economic system called robonomics as a result of widespread use of robotics, artificial intelligence and automation are discussed. The positive and negative aspects of the effects of the increase in the use of robots on productivity, cost and labor, which are economic indicators, are examined in this article. With the widespread use of robots, it is predicted that more technicians, economists, and mechanical engineers will be needed in the workplaces, as well as unemployment concerns due to the spread of robots to work areas. The mentioned process will not take place in the short term, positions and roles will change gradually. The study has a conceptual aspect, and it reveals the effect of robots on the industrial use from different perspectives.

Authors: Li Jing-Chun , Zhang Qun , Liu Zhong-Gang , Wang Qian , Li Yan-Bing , Wei Guo-Sheng
Published: June 2022

Background: With the increasing application of artificial insemination technology in boars, breeding efficiency is largely determined by the quality of semen preservation. With the prolonged storage of semen at room temperature in vitro, excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) damage organelles and plasma membranes and ultimately lead to a decline in semen quality. Methods: In order to improve the preservation of semen at 17°C, this experiment investigated the effect of different concentrations (0, 10, 15, 25, 35 µg/mL) of coenzyme Q10 (Co-Q10) in Modena dilution on the quality of boar semen during storage at 17°C. The sperm motility, mitochondrial activity, total antioxidant (T-AOC), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and malondialdehyde (MDA) were assessed at 17°C at different times (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 d). Result: The results showed that the addition of Co-Q10 has a positive effect during the preservation of boar semen at 17°C. On the 5th day, the sperm motility of the 25 µg/mL Co-Q10 group was 73.80% and the mitochondrial activity was 82.94%, which was significantly higher (P less than 0.05) than that of other groups. In terms of antioxidant levels, the MDA content of the 25 µg/ml and 35 µg/ml Co-Q10 groups on the 5th day was significantly lower (P less than 0.05) than that of the other groups. At the same time, the 25 µg/ml group could effectively enhance the activity of antioxidant enzymes and the SOD and T-AOC were 17.33 U/mL and 3.17 U/mL on the 5th day significantly higher than the other groups (P less than 0.05). The results showed that the most appropriate concentration of Co-Q10 when storing boar semen at 17°C was 25 µg/ml.

Published: June 2022

Background: Efforts to understand the impact of SARS-CoV-2 variants, vaccine status, and treatment on the development and persistence of Long COVID have intensified. 
Methods: We report 4 sequential cases from a post-COVID cohort study demonstrating variability in outcomes following differentially timed nirmatrelvir therapy, received as part of clinical care. 
Results: In the first case, the participant experienced symptomatic rebound and developed Long COVID despite early initiation of antiviral therapy. In the next 2 cases, participants reported improvement in persistent COVID symptoms when nirmatrelvir was taken 25 and 60 days following initial symptom onset. In the final case, an individual with presumed Long COVID for 2 years reported substantial improvement in chronic symptoms when taking nirmatrelvir following SARS-CoV-2 re-infection. 
Conclusions: These anecdotes suggest that systematic study of antiviral therapy for Long COVID is warranted.

Authors: Abdulrazeq Fayez , Al-Maamari Abdulwahab , Ameen Walaa , Ameen Alaa
Published: June 2022

Objective: To assess the baseline knowledge, attitudes and practices of medical residents in the Islamic Hospital in Amman, Jordan towards healthcare ethics.

Methods: This was a cross-sectional study conducted among 111 medical residents in the Islamic Hospital in the period from February to April 2017. Data were collected using a self-administered questionnaire, and Pearson’s chi-square test was used to test the statistical significance of differences between male and female medical residents at P values <0.05.

Results: The majority of the respondent medical residents (76.6%) were aware of the content of the Hippocratic Oath. Ethical dilemmas at some point during clinical practice were reported by 68.0% of medical residents; however, only 6.3% reported encountering such dilemmas on a daily basis. Books, lectures and Media were the most frequent sources used by medical residents for learning about healthcare ethics, while supervisors, chiefs of residents and heads of departments were the most frequently preferred for consultation on both ethical and legal problems. The majority (91%) of respondents showed an interest in learning healthcare ethics. However, gaps in knowledge and negative attitudes were observed. Statistically significant differences between male and female residents were found in the issues related to paternalism in case of disagreement with patients/ families, seeking consent for surgeries but not for tests or medications as well as disclosure of tuberculosis-positive status.  

Conclusions: There are some gaps in knowledge and negative attitudes towards healthcare ethics among medical residents, where some residents are even unaware of the content of the Hippocratic Oath. Because a substantial proportion of medical residents encounter ethical problems at some point during their clinical practice, there is a necessity to incorporate ethics education into medical curricula, which should be directed at practical real-world dilemmas. Future physicians must learn how to adhere to the four basic principles of healthcare ethics (autonomy, beneficence, justice and nonmaleficence) early in their career.

Authors: Bawazeer Iman Mokammed
Published: June 2022

Objective: To determine the types and frequencies of complications associated with acute meningoencephalitis (ME) among children admitted  to hospitals in Aden, Yemen.

Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted among 60 children (1 month – 14 years of age) admitted to AL-Wahda Teaching Hospital in Aden with acute ME (viral or bacterial) over the period from January to June 2010. Data were collected using a pre-designed questionnaire, and data were presented as frequencies and percentages and analyzed using appropriate statistical tests. Differences or associations between categorical variables were considered statistically significant at P values <0.05.

Results: ME complications were significantly higher among children aged less than one year compared to those aged one year or older (58.8% vs. 38.5%, respectively) and among those with bacterial ME compared to those with viral ME (79.2% vs. 30.6%, respectively). The complications were also significantly higher among children with history of illness for three or more days before their admission compared to those having been ill for less than three days (65.8 vs. 22.7%, respectively). In addition, children aged less than two years not exclusively breastfed were more prone to ME complications compared to those exclusively breastfed (93.5% vs. 50.0%, respectively). Increased intracranial pressure (ICP), anemia and hypoglycemia were the three most frequent ME complications among children admitted to Al-Wahda Teaching Hospital, being observed in 53.3%, 50.0% and 43.3% of patients, respectively. Increased ICP was significantly higher among children aged five years or older compared to those aged less than five years (88.9% vs. 47.1%, respectively). In contrast, anemia and hyperglycemia were significantly higher among children aged less than five years (56.9% and 49.0%, respectively) compared to those aged five years or older (11.1% each).

Conclusions: ME complications are significantly higher among children aged less than one year, infected with bacterial ME, with history of illness for three or more days before their admission and not exclusively breastfed. Increased ICP, anemia and hypoglycemia are the three most frequent ME complications, particularly among children with bacterial ME in Aden, followed by focal neurological deficits seizures and cranial nerve palsy. Although increased ICP is significantly higher among children aged five years or older, anemia and hyperglycemia are significantly higher among children aged less than five years. Active measures to promote immunization and exclusive breastfeeding along with early diagnosis and proper treatment are highly recommended. Further large-scale studies are required to study the pattern of complications following acute ME among Yemeni children.

Published: June 2022

Primary testicular lymphoma (PTL) represents 1-2% of all types of non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHLs) and 1-10% of testicular neoplasms. Up to the best of my knowledge, this is the first case of PTL of the diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) in a 60-year-old man presented with a painless mass in the left testis as revealed by physical examination in a tertiary care hospital in Al-Madinah Al-Munwarah in the western region of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). Radiological examination revealed a large well-defined heterogeneous predominantly hypo-echoic mass with increased vascularity in the upper portion of the testis. On the other hand, histopathological examination revealed a tumor involving the whole left testis, which was large (measuring 6 3.5  3.3 cm), solid and dark red with focal areas of hemorrhage and epididymal infiltration. Immunohistochemistry showed positivity of leucocyte common antigen (LCA), pan B-cell marker (CD20) and negativity of pan T-cell marker (CD3). Other immunohistochemical markers such as CD10, placental alkaline phosphatase (PLAP), cytokeratin, vimentin, desmin and S100 protein were also negative. However, there was a marked expression of Ki67 and Bcl2 markers. Accordingly, the diagnosis of DLBCL was established. The tumor was classified as stage I according to the Ann Arbor system. The case was treated by orchiectomy followed by prophylactic anthracycline-based chemotherapy and irradiation of the contralateral testis and central nervous system.

The purpose of this research to review the Item Sunter River which has been normalized as flood control in Central Jakarta. This research was conducted to determine the causes of flooding due to the overflow of the river that occurred in 2020. The review was carried out by analyzing the flood discharge of the river by calculation of the planned flood discharge using the Nakayasu Synthesis Unit Hydrograph method in return periods of 2, 5, 10, 25, and 50 years respectively of 88.44 m3/s, 116.52 m3/s, 137.85 m3/s, 168.39 m3/s, and 193.22 m3/s compared to the calculation river flow rate using the Manning equation of 205.94 m3/s. The calculation result shows that river flow is still sufficient for the planned flood discharge. Then a further analysis is carried out on the factors of waste management, sedimentation, and pump house. The results of the analysis show that the accumulation of garbage occurs in the river basin area, sedimentation is 20% of the flow capacity, and the pump house is inadequate due to flooding. Therefore, it is necessary to prevent and clean up rubbish in river area, routine dredging sedimentation, and maintenance of water pumps must be on standby at all times.

The paper investigates the factory in the context of a multinational corporation. The historical-structural background for capturing the changes in the factory is both post-socialism and the conditions of neoliberalism. Drawing on conceptualizations from critical sociology, critical approaches to neoliberalism, and new working-class studies, the author focuses on how the structural transformation of socioeconomic conditions translates into the work in the factory and what implications this has for how workers and managers experience work and their own identities. Based on ethnographic research at the Baťa shoe factory, I identify a culture of precarious responsibility, which I characterize through four dimensions: management’s disengagement from responsibility, workers’ assumption of responsibility, the imposition of economization.

Published: June 2022

The study analyzes how the content of prayer books changes in relation to aspects such as the title and form of the book, and the gender of the target reader. The study works with the prayer book Rajská růže [Paradise Rose] and examines three different title variants (Ljbezně kwětaucý Ragská Růže, Duchownj Ragská Růže, Libokwětaucý Ragská Růže). The examined corpus includes both printed and handwritten prayer books. In addition to the title and the form of the book (i.e., printed vs. handwritten), the gender of the intended reader is taken into consideration (i.e., whether it was intended for men, women, both sexes or unspecified). A content analysis and comparison of different variants of the examined prayer books allows us to observe significant changes. Although the prayer book Rajská růže may initially seem as if it is multiple editions of a single work, in reality, the content varies considerably in the specific versions of the book, largely determined by the form of the book.
Viscoelastic Oil Displacement System of Modified Silica Nanoparticles/Zwitterionic Surfactant for High Salinity Reservoir
Authors: Yan Kun , Liu Changlong , Cao Weijia , Liu Xiaobo , Yao Liming , Su Cheng
Published: June 2022

Polymer flooding and polymer/surfactant flooding have achieved good efficiency in the application of conventional reservoir, but the existed chemical flooding technology cannot cannot address the issues of the requirements of chemical flooding in high salinity reservoir. Under the condition of high salinity reservoir, due to the increase of calcium and magnesium ions, the increasing viscosity effect of oil displacement system is lost. In order to study the feasibility of applying nanomaterials in the field of enhanced oil recovery under the conditions of high salinity reservoir, develop a low-concentration and high-efficiency oil displacement system. EAPC solution has advantages in reducing interfacial tension, but its viscosity is not good. Therefore, hydrophobically modified silica nanoparticles (SiO2 NPs) were added to the carboxylic acid–type erucic acid amide propyl betaine (EAPC) solution. The interaction between EAPC and hydrophobic carbon chains led to the exposure of carboxyl groups, thus making the system more stable. The interfacial activity and zeta potential were studied, and the interaction mechanism between modified SiO2 NPs and EAPC was obtained. The results show that when the EAPC concentration is 0.3%, the apparent viscosity of the modified silica nanoparticles (SiO2 NPs) composite system can reach 40 mPa·s, and the oil-water interfacial tension can be reduced to 10-2 mN/m. The micro-visualization model and the simulated oil displacement experiment proved that the modified SiO2 NPs (0.3%)/EAPC (0.3%) composite system has a variety of oil displacement mechanisms. Under the simulated reservoir conditions (total salinity of 25000 mg/L, calcium and magnesium ion concentration of 500 mg/L, 70 °C), it is proved that the modified SiO2 NPs composite system had good viscoelasticity and improved oil washing efficiency. The oil displacement system has guiding significance for effectively enhancing the recovery of high salinity reservoir.

Analysis of vibration characteristics of rotating parallel flexible manipulator considering joint elastic constraints
Authors: Zhang Wenhui , Wen Zhi , You Zhangping , Ye Xiaoping
Published: June 2022

The bolt joint is the key component connecting the rigid moving base body and the flexible manipulator. The dynamic characteristics of the flexible manipulator under the elastic constraint of the joint are analyzed, and the action mechanism of the elastic constraint of the bolt joint on the frequency and vibration mode is revealed. Considering the effects of line constraint and torsion constraint, the elastic constraint model of the joint is established. Based on the principle of virtual work, the boundary constraints of the joint end and the free end are established, and the analytical equation of frequency and the expression of vibration mode function are derived. The first three frequencies and vibration mode characteristics of the flexible manipulator under elastic constraints are analyzed numerically. The sensitivity method is used to analyze the effect of linear constraints and torsional constraints on the frequency, and the elastic constraint region is established to characterize the functional relationship between the binding stiffness and the natural frequency. It is found that under elastic constraints, the influence of torsional stiffness of bolt joint is mainly concentrated in the low-order modal frequency, while the linear stiffness has a great influence on each order modal frequency of the manipulator; With the decrease of elastic constraint stiffness, its influence on modal shapes gradually increases, especially on high-order modal shapes. The research results prove the internal mechanism of the influence of elastic constraints on vibration characteristics, which provide a theoretical basis for improving the dynamic characteristics of flexible manipulator.
Determination of the amount of oil product vapours from the tank based on monitoring the operation of the breathing valve
Authors: Glushkov Semyon , Valeev Anvar
Published: June 2022

The development of methods for calculating losses of oil and petroleum products vapours from the tank has been going on for a long time. Systems that allow for more accurate calculations are also being developed along the way. In each country, and sometimes in each company, there are their own methods for determining the loss of light hydrocarbon fractions from losses from the tank through the breathing valve. In addition, losses are divided into “working losses” and “standing losses”. In each technique, there are both pros and cons. The most characteristic disadvantage of each technique is its applicability only to the conditions in which it was developed, due to the presence of correction coefficients. This article proposes a new technique for determining the loss of hydrocarbons vapours from the tank through the breathing valve, both from “working losses” and from “standing losses”. In the course of the work, formulas were obtained for calculating the flow rate Q∆P,h through the breathing valve, which depends on the degree of opening of the pressure plate and overpressure. An experiment was conducted, instrumentally proving the application of the developed methodology. And also, the equipment is selected and recommendations on its installation and use are given.
On the Transformation of Thinking on Personal Responsibility Towards Requirements of Environmental Ethics in Slovakia
Authors: Vadíková Katarína Mária
Published: June 2022

The main purpose of this paper is to confirm a remarkable transformation in contemporary thinking on responsibility for the environment in Slovakia, since the Velvet Revolution (1989). Terminology is derived from Guardini’s educational, environmental ethics of responsibility, and actualised via Bauman-Lipovetsky’s critics of the post-modern way of thinking. Comparisons of the situation in thinking on responsibility for the environment, before and after the Velvet revolution, are based on an analysis of findings of various inter-disciplinary research-projects, argued via enviro-criminal cases mentioned in the Slovak media, existentially verified by the author herself, as a living witness, and fostered by appropriate Slovak legislation. The main findings of the paper are as follows: liquidity of thinking on responsibility for the environment was confirmed; transformation of the Slovak mentality is remarkable – there are still enough people, who transfer responsibility, to be taken by “competent ones” (Homo Sovieticus mentality); however, many influencers and volunteers, also politicians, are pro-environment engaged in various public projects (‘The Man of the Velvet Revolution mentality’); people are more aware of their environmental rights and duties, and feel more invited to take personal responsibility for the environment. Conclusion: Slovaks are interested in pro-environmental projects, if it pays off, and if they do not feel alone in pro-environmental efforts.

Published: June 2022

:

It is new approach to combine one or multiple drugs onto the same drug-delivery nanocarrier in accurately controllable manner, by covalently preconjugating one or multiple therapeutic agents by covalent bond to form drug conjugates. It provides the advantages of nano size system with the targeted delivery of drug with great precision. The conjugation system allows the modification in the metabolic path way in the blood stream and can target the delivery to the heart, liver or brain. The cleavable covalent bond allows the therapeutic activity of the individual drugs to be resumed after the drug conjugates are delivered into the target site and get separated from the carriers. The characters of drug conjugated system are (a) a covalent bond between drug and carrier moiety, (b) in vitro cleavage of the bond, (c) optimum release of drug at site of action to ensure effectiveness, (d) no alteration in drug action. As a proof of the concept, synthesis and characterization of stearic acid/oleic acid- diminazene conjugates nanoparticles are demonstrated. It is shown that after conjugation with lipid and/or polymer and synthesized to nanoparticles there is significant improvement in cyctotoxicity and targeted controlled delivery of drug than the free drug.

The main purpose of this study was to examine the correlation between parental involvement (PI) and academic performance (AP) among junior high school (JHS) students in selected schools in Cebu. This study employed a quantitative correlational design. There were thirty (30) JHS students who participated in this research who were identified using a simple random sampling method. Descriptive statistical tools, particularly mean and standard deviation were used to describe the level of PI and AP of the students. Consequently, the Pearson product-moment coefficient of correlation test was run to assess the correlation between PI and AP among JHS students. Based on the findings, it showed that there is a very low negative correlation between the two variables. Thus, there is no significant correlation between PI and AP among JHS students, r (30) = - .06, p = .74. With these results, the null hypothesis was not rejected since the p-value is greater than the significance level, p > .05. Therefore, PI does not affect the AP of the students. Findings suggest that educational staff and administrators be able to identify other factors that influence the AP of the students. Because the scope of this study is restricted within the perception of students towards PI, it would be better for the future studies to let the parents of the students be involved, and their side will be taken into consideration; new variables in the inquiry – motivation and self-competence among students; and to conduct a qualitative or a mixed-method study for future studies about the topic.

The goal of this paper was to determine the effects of pandemic on Special Education teachers teaching the hearing impaired (HI) students. This qualitative-quantitative research was designed to see how the COVID-19 pandemic affected teachers who were educating hearing-impaired students during the mandated school closures in March 2020A three-part standardized and customized questionnaire with open-ended interview questions was given to special education teachers from three selected schools in Cebu Province. Participant responses to the online questionnaire revealed that there is a lack of preparation in online teaching which contributes to their stress. In addition, assessing Hearing Impaired students during distance learning were very hard to establish due to lack of preparation and lack of exposure to online teaching before. Also, the results indicated that teachers find it extremely stressful teaching HI students online during COVID-19. With the findings of this study, school leaders may be able to develop protective factors that help to foster resilience in special education teachers during this time of pandemic. School administrators should facilitate in improving the teaching skills of teachers through assessment of their needs and weaknesses in the delivery of instruction online. This includes giving teachers relevant trainings regarding online tools for assessment and strategies that would help them effectively teach their lessons

Abstract: The growing development of the e-commerce market is of great significance in the world. In this online shopping process, the security of personal information and debit card or credit card information increases the popularity of e-commerce and is an important part. This paper provides limited information and is necessary for transferring money by online transactions by securing data and trust of customers. Facial recognition technology identifies a person's information through a digital image. It is automatically determined. It is mainly used in security systems. It matches facial recognition from different angles. It is mainly used in airports. It will recognize the face and we can avoid some unwanted fraud by using the facial recognition system. The fundamental gain of face popularity is used for fraud restrict and crime controlling motive due to the fact face pictures which have been archived and recorded, on the way to assist us to perceive someone later. Facial recognition identifies each distinct skin tone on the surface of a human face, such as curves on cheeks, eyes and nostrils, and more. The technology can also be used in very dark conditions and prevent identity theft.

Published: June 2022

Abstract: Advances around the field of deep learning and cognitive computing have allowed mankind to look at and solve the problems of the world in a completely new way. Early detection of some deadly diseases helps save millions of lives but still, it has been observed that there seems to be no change in the way diagnosis of a particular disease takes place even in the 21st Generation of Medical Health Care. The highlight of the reasons happens to be Lack of Trust, Lack of Awareness, and Lack of Infrastructure. The health care industry seems to land blocked by their rigid methodologies and to this date, there is no involvement of the patient and caretaker staff in the digitalization of healthcare. In this project, we will introduce a digital platform for healthcare that aims to reduce the gap between a doctor, patient, and the caretaker staff. This platform is based on data, that can assist surgeons, patients, and care teams throughout the patient journey by automating some of the critical processes that are now done manually, including decision-making, post-surgery planning, tracking, and estimating recovery time, smart disease detection models, and collecting patient feedback. An important aspect of this platform will be the disease prediction models wherein we have prepared three different disease prediction models that will be able to detect if a user has that specific disease or not without the consultation of the Doctor. Here we have talked about the adoption of Deep Learning and Artificial Intelligence in today’s Healthcare scenario and the crucial role of delivering such applications to the user on a single platform.
