The clinical, laboratory and prognostic characteristics of haemorrhagic stroke cases related to COVID-19 infection
Authors: Üstün Özek Sibel , Emir Canan
Published: November 2021

Objective: Although ischemic and thrombotic vascular processes are more widely reported in COVID-19, the ratio of haemorrhagic cerebrovascular disease is lower. However, it needs to be evaluated because the mortality rate is higher in haemorrhages, and they may appear iatrogenically.

Material and Methods: Patients observed at the Prof. Dr. Cemil Taşçıoğlu City Hospital between March 11th, 2020, and March 11th, 2021, were included in the study. Cases diagnosed as consecutive full intracerebral haemorrhage and concomitant with COVID-19 were observed during the study period. This study is a cross-sectional, retrospective, and observational study.

Results: Within the 1-year period, 11 patients (7 men and 4 women) with a mean age of 64.45±18.68 years related to COVID-19 were recorded. Risk factors were high blood pressure at a frequency of 64%, diabetes mellitus at 45%, and the use of antiaggregants/anticoagulants at 36%. The ratio of male patients was 64% (n=7). The location of haemorrhage was intraparenchymal in 91% (n=10), and subdural in 9% (n=1). The mortality rate was 64%.

Conclusion: Neurologic findings that develop, especially in noncooperating and prone patients in wards and intensive care units, must be observed carefully. Caution must be exercised in prophylactic antiaggregant and anticoagulant treatment, especially in high-risk patients. Intracranial haemorrhages are important due to high mortality.

Objective: To present only skin lesions in the abdominal wall that we detected in morbidly obese patients and to examine them in the light of the literature.

Material and Method: Patients who applied to the general surgery outpatient clinic for bariatric surgery and who also had dermatological complaints and were referred to the dermatology outpatient clinic with the detection of skin-related complaints were retrospectively evaluated in terms of age and breast skin findings. Normal skin findings were separated into intertrigo, chronic recurrent folliculitis, eczemas, acanthosis nigricans and striae.  

Results: A total of 60 obese female patients were included in the study. The mean age of the patients was 32.4 ± 8.8 years (19-53), and the mean body mass index was 42.6 ± 2.4 (40-49). Normal skin findings were present in 28.3% of the patients (17 patients). The most common finding was striae, and 60% (36 patients) had it. Then respectively, intertrigo was detected in 14 patients (23%), chronic recurrent folliculitis in 12 patients (20%), eczema in 5 patients (8.3%), and acanthosis nigricans in 2 patients (3.3%). 

Conclusion: The most common findings on the abdominal wall skin of obese individuals are striae and intertrigo, and similar findings have been found in many studies in the literature.

Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) plays a major role among the few crop species being extensively grown as staple food sources. As the human population grows, new methods and approaches must be found to attain wheat cultivars with improved characteristics. The challenge now is to produce higher-yielding varieties with good technological quality that are resistant or tolerant to a wide range of biotic and abiotic stresses. However, because of the critical nutritional status of human population, there is an urgent need for development of such wheat varieties that would be more nutritious (with improved protein, zinc, iron, etc. value), meeting our health demands. This article summarises present status in this field.

Parkinson’s disease one of the most complex neurological disorder. The disease risk and progression are due to common genetic variants. Approximately 6.2 million cases are reported each year according to the statistics published in 2015 whereas it is expected that this number will be twice by 2040. There are two types of Parkinson’s disease, familial Parkinson’s disease, and sporadic Parkinson’s disease. The disease is characterized by the presence of Lewy bodies. Adult age increases the risk of Parkinson’s disease. In this review, we provide an overview of the disease pathology of Lewy bodies in the occurrence of Parkinson’s disease, in vitro studies to determine the role of iPSCs in treatment of Parkinson’s disease, in vivo studies to determine the role of animal model in studying disease modeling, and future prospective how single-cell RNA sequencing technology is a major advancement in studying and find the treatment for Parkinson’s disease.
Therapy on Parkinson’s Disease
Authors: Kirwa Ronald
Published: November 2021

Parkinson's disorder (PD) is a central nervous condition that causes tremors and affects mobility. Symptoms appear slowly, generally beginning with a slight shaking in one hand. Tremors are typical, but the disease can also cause stiffness or sluggish movement. Dopaminergic levels drop when nerve cells in the brain are damaged, leading to Parkinson's disease. The condition can start with tremors and progress to additional symptoms such as sluggish movements, stiffness, and a loss of balance. Therapy can help reduce the symptoms of Parkinson's disease, but it can't cure it. It is critical to obtain diagnostic testing by laboratory or imaging tests. A therapy expert can show how to make the proper motions to improve movement, flexibility, and balance while still allowing the patient to maintain personal independence. Exercising can help strengthen the muscles, improve flexibility and balance. Therapy can also boost mood and help the patient cope with sadness or anxiety.

Authors: Ullah Kaleem
Published: November 2021

Combined Liver and kidney transplantation (CLKT) is the surgical treatment modality for patients with combined end-stage Liver and renal disease. Solo liver transplantation with underlying end-stage Liver and renal disease leads to a poor prognosis. One of the indication of CLKT is liver cirrhosis with irreversible renal failure. However, several issues remain poorly understood with CLKT. It is not clear to which extent renal transplantation affects liver transplantation outcomes, and also, the long-term prognosis of combined procedure in cirrhotic patients is not fully known.

The number of CLKT has been increasing over the past years in countries with advanced health care systems. However, no such cases have been reported from Pakistan, a developing country with poor health care facilities. Here we report the first CKLT from Pakistan.

The Impact of the COVID-19 Crisis on the Dutch Criminal Justice System
Authors: Moolenaar Debora , Choenni Sunil
Published: November 2021

This paper tries to ascertain the overall impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Dutch criminal justice system. In the Netherlands, the first case of COVID-19 was reported in February 2020. On March 16, 2020, the Netherlands went into its first lockdown which lasted until approximately June 15, 2020. The effect of the COVID-19 crisis on crime is ambiguous. Whereas less crime was expected in the physical world, more crime was expected in the online world due to the crisis. During the first lockdown all government offices were closed, including the court buildings. Only urgent criminal cases were handled by the courts. Urgent criminal cases refer to those cases where the rights of suspects were violated or the safety of victims was endangered. During the first lockdown, the backlog of court cases increased, which adversely affected all criminal justice institutions that were responsible for executing court verdicts, like the prison and probation services. This paper assesses the effect of the COVID-19 crisis on crime and the criminal justice system. First, the effect of COVID-19 on crime is assessed by performing a regression analysis on monthly crime data. Second, using a long-standing forecasting model for the criminal justice system, an estimation is made of the long term impact of the changes in the level of crime, of the shifts towards different types of crime, as well as of the reduction of the prosecutor and court backlogs, and of a possible economic downturn and increasing unemployment for the complete criminal justice system.
Menelaah Lagu Puji-Pujian Kristen: Kajian Ekstramusikal
Authors: Sasongko Michael Hari
Published: November 2021

Musik tidak hanya dipahami dari perspektif psikologi musik, yang melibatkan melodi, harmoni, dan ritme untuk menganalisis perilaku manusia. Ada cara lain untuk menelaah perilaku itu yaitu analisis makna. Kekuatan makna dipandang mampu mengubah perilaku manusia. Melalui teori komunikasi kekuatan makna itu dapat diidentifikasi, melalui proses interpretasi dan asosiasi, sampai terjadinya perubahan perilaku. Perubahan perilaku ini juga disebabkan adanya hubungan personal antara manusia dengan trancendent, bahkan hubungan ini memiliki makna yang lebih dalam dari pada musik itu sendiri. Di dalam musik gereja, musik hanyalah sarana, akan tetapi syair-syair di dalamnya mengacu pada Alkitab, maka syair di dalam musik gereja bisa disebut “sastra doa”. Penelitian ini bertujuan menemukan makna di balik lagu-lagu pujian. Metode yang digunakan adalah studi pustaka dan kritik sastra. Teks-teks lagu pujian itu kemudian dianalisis. Objek material di dapat dari berbagai sumber kepustakaan, termasuk beberapa teks lagu pujian yang lazim dinyanyikan di gereja Karismatik. Dari hasil analisis dapat disimpulkan bahwa aspek syair (kata-kata) yang terdapat di dalamnya menduduki peranan yang lebih penting dibandingkan aspek musikalnya, sebab syair atau lirik lagu memperlihatkan hubungan personal antara manusia dengan Yang Transenden yakni Yesus Kristus

Authors: Benedek András
Published: November 2021

This study is based on the results from a national project initiative on digitalization, supported by methodology evidence from e-learning materials at the level of teachers’ training for vocational education institutes. Looking for the new paths to online learning We have been formulating the question for almost a decade: How can we manage the transfer of knowledge and make learning more enjoyable? For the steps forwards, the first impulses for understanding the recontextualization of vocational didactics and re-defining roles and responsibilities of the actors. Our paper deals with seeking a new method for content development and its application in vocational education and training (VET). This study recommends a kind of open framework[1] is provided by the fact that the innovation, which takes open source content development as one of the approaches of reforming teacher training for VET, is connected to a technical university of long-existing traditions. In line with the peculiarities of Hungarian VET, our research group undertook to develop methodological training in terms of complex school subjects. By applying their new concept, their concrete objective was: the methodological renewal of vocational teacher training and practical training by creating and applying complex learning content units online.
Big Brother Mentoring in the Let's Teach for Hungary Program
Authors: Godó Katalin
Published: November 2021

The number of mentoring programs within the framework of schools is increasing both internationally and domestically (Raufelder & Ittel, 2012; Fejes et. al., 2009). Besides traditional mentoring, the role of peer mentoring (Miller, 2002) has also come to the fore in recent years. In our study, we focus on cross-age peer mentoring (Miller, 2002; Sipe, 2005), where older youth mentor younger youth. One example of this in Hungary is the Let's Teach for Hungary (LTHMP) mentoring program, where undergraduate students mentor primary school students. In our research, we studied mentors at the University of Debrecen who had completed at least two semester-long cycles in the program. We were curious about how the COVID-19 pandemic period affected mentoring, so we examined the transition of a mentoring program based on a personal meeting to online mentoring, and its pivotal points, advantages, and disadvantages. As a method, we used qualitative interview analysis, during which we worked with semi-structured interviews, recorded in the spring of 2020 and 2021 – during the global pandemic situation – with a total of 50 mentors. The content analysis of the interview texts was performed based on the codes formulated based on the theory, and the emic codes emerged in the interviews (Creswell, 2012). Our results show that mentors can be grouped into different types based on their attitudes towards online mentoring. Overall, the digital transition has been a big challenge. The biggest problem was the lack of equipment. The issue of age has been also an important factor in terms of the sense of digital comfort. We noticed the phenomenon of Big Brother Mentoring and the importance of chameleon mentors. Our research, which can fill a gap, highlights both the challenges and benefits of online mentoring. In addition, we can also contribute to the effective and successful operation of the Let's Teach for Hungary Mentoring Program.
Students in Hungarian Higher Education and Their Perception of Dificulties During Their Studies
Authors: Hrabéczy Anett
Published: November 2021

Our research aims to examine the recruitment of students who experience difficulties with learning during their higher education studies and the motives behind their career choices, as well as the correlation of these factors with student persistence. The topicality of the problem stems from the diversity of students as a result of the expansion of higher education, as well as the increasing proportion of reading comprehension and other learning difficulties that can hinder individuals' progress in the labour market. Previous research has linked problems in learning in higher education to underdeveloped skills. However, we hypothesize that the occurrence of difficulties during students' studies and careers is determined by career choices, which are influenced by social background. While in higher education the social status differences of the family background already seem to disappear, the origin also affects the higher education career. To test the viability of this assumption, statistical methods were used to analyze the CHERD-Hungary database PERSIST -2019. In the case of difficulties and low persistence, we found a relationship with the career choice patterns of the students studied, especially with family factors influencing career choice and students' interest in their current education. One of our most important findings is that students who experience difficulties during learning can be divided into two groups. One group is characterized by low social status indicators, participating in low prestige and high risk fields of education, and there are specific cultural disadvantages in the background of their difficulties. The other group includes students who come from a higher-status family and concentrate on higher-risk but more prestigious courses, characterized by above-average selectivity and a higher risk of dropping out.
Neoseiulus tunus (De Leon, 1967) (Acari: Phytoseiidae): is this a potential natural enemy of Aculops lycopersici (Massee, 1937) (Acari: Eriophyidae)?
Authors: Amaral Felipe S. R. , Ferreira Mizael M. , Lofego Antonio C.
Published: November 2021

This study aimed to determine the biological parameters of Neoseiulus tunus (De Leon, 1967) feeding on Aculops lycopersici (Massee, 1937). We conducted experiments to assess the predation rate of the former and its biological cycle when consuming A. lycopersici exclusively. Moreover, we assessed the preference of N. tunus for A. lycopersici concerning the pollen of Typha domingensis Pers. (Typhaceae) and Tetranychus urticae Koch, 1835, using free-choice tests. The obtained data indicates A. lycopersici is an appropriate prey to N. tunus, as it allows it to complete its development, reproduce and increase its population. We also noticed that this phytoseiid prefers A. lycopersici to the two other food sources. Though more robust studies will be needed, these preliminary results allow some inferences, such as N. tunus being a potential natural enemy of A. lycopersici.
THE CONSTRUCTION OF GUILT IN EUROPEAN MEDIEVAL LAW
Authors: Сквозников Александр Николаевич
Published: November 2021

Постоянная потребность исследователей в углубленном изучении проблем вины и ответственности определяется не только задачами совершенствования законодательства и правоприменительной практики, но и изменчивостью представлений людей об основаниях, пределах, формах и целях ответственности лица, представлений, отражающих реальный процесс исторического развития общественных отношений и практики их правового регулирования. В работе исследована деятельность средневекового законодателя по разграничению умысла и неосторожности как двух форм вины при совершении преступлений против личности, а также разграничение виновного причинения вреда от казуса. Автор пришел к выводу о том, что в источниках европейского права VIII-XVI вв. законодатель значительное место уделяет внутреннему (субъективному) отношению лица к совершенному правонарушению и его последствиям. Выявление и учет таких признаков субъективной стороны деяния, как вина, мотив и цель, существенно влиял на квалификацию деяния и назначение наказания либо приводил к освобождению от ответственности ввиду отсутствия субъективной стороны правонарушения (вины) как одного из элементов состава правонарушения. В работе показано, каким образом законодатель учитывал влияние субъективного отношения лица к совершенному деянию при установлении юридической ответственности.

The constant need of researchers for an in-depth study of the problems of guilt and responsibility is determined not only by the tasks of improving legislation and law enforcement practice, but also by the variability of people's ideas about the grounds, limits, forms and purposes of a person's responsibility, ideas that reflect the real process of the historical development of social relations and the practice of their legal regulation. The work examines the activities of the medieval legislator to differentiate intent and negligence as two forms of guilt when committing crimes against the person, as well as the differentiation of guilty harm from an incident. The author came to the conclusion that in the sources of European law of the VIII-XVI centuries. For centuries, the legislator has given a significant place to the internal (subjective) attitude of a person to a committed offense and its consequences. The identification and consideration of such signs of the subjective side of the act as guilt, motive and purpose significantly influenced the qualification of the act and the appointment of punishment, or led to release from liability due to the absence of the subjective side of the offense (guilt) as one of the elements of the offense. The work shows how the legislator took into account the influence of a person's subjective attitude to the committed act when establishing legal responsibility.

Dazu gehören eine umfassende Zugangskontrolle, die Freigeländeabsicherung bis hin zur Drohnenabwehr sowie die Überwachung, etwa von Grenzzäunen oder Hochsicherheitsbereichen. Um sich sowohl effektiv und nachhaltig als auch effizient zu schützen, benötigen Unternehmen ein ganzheitliches, auf die individuellen Anforderungen zugeschnittenes Sicherheitskonzept. Alle Maßnahmen sollten miteinander verbunden sein und sich gegenseitig ergänzen.
Special courtroom as an element of child-friendly justice: organizational and legal aspect
Authors: Parkhomenko Pavlo
Published: November 2021

The entry of a child into the sphere of justice, regardless of its status, requires the creation of such conditions that would minimize the possibility of the impact of negative factors in the process of administering justice on the child himself.

In this regard, one of the effective and important elements in the child-friendly justice system may be the organization of a special courtroom, which would be adapted to hear cases involving a child, which is not widely used in national practice and does not have the appropriate legal regulation in general.

In addition, to date, there are no studies that would reflect the problems of organizing a courtroom, in which it is possible to try different categories of cases with the participation of the child.

The article attempts to conduct a theoretical and legal study of existing international standards and national legal regulation of the organization of child-friendly courtrooms, identifying the basic elements for its creation, through which it is possible to formulate basic approaches to the administration of child-friendly justice.

The author stressed that international standards refer to the components of child-friendly justice, including the issue of creating the most comfortable conditions for the child in the courtroom and directly during the hearing.

To substantiate the conclusions, we analyzed the national case law and the case law of the European Court of Human Rights, which demonstrates cases of violation of children's rights by not creating appropriate conditions for the trial of children, and emphasizes the importance of the situation in which the trial took place. from litigation involving adults. Positive practices of organization of special courtrooms in some courts of Ukraine are given.

Based on the analysis, it was found that the issue of arranging a courtroom friendly to children has no legislative and departmental regulations, in connection with which proposed ways to address the legislative gap in this direction and guidelines for organizing a special courtroom, which is positively assessed. Рrovided children who were invited to court and who had the opportunity to compare the general courtroom and the special.

Keywords: international standards, children's rights, child-friendly justice, child interview, courtroom.
