Background: Meningococcal infection (MI) is one of the most significant bacterial infections in children, it is characterized by a life-threatening and unpredictable fulminant course in the structure of infectious diseases. MI in Ukraine represents an important cause of mortality. The Transcarpathian region is located on the western boundary of Ukraine with 4 European countries. Such location of the district and its geopolitical issues related to immigration plays a crucial role in disease transmission and serve as a gate to infectious diseases to and from European Union. Methods: This was a retrospective study that included 32 patients with a confirmed diagnosis of meningococcaemias. The data were obtained from patients’ electronic medical records (EMR). Data collected included demographic, clinical, and laboratory. Continuous variables were expressed as means with standard deviations. Categorical variables were summarized as counts and percentages. Results: Meningococcal morbidity in the Transcarpathian region was higher than in the whole of Ukraine in all researched years. Primarily, the highest incidence was recorded in the Perechyn district and in Uzhhorod city. 53% of all cases of MI occur in the period from December to February. The main constant clinical manifestation of the disease was skin symptoms. Conclusions: The incidence rate of MI is an important problem for public health and may pose a threat to neighboring countries. The methods for the prevention of meningococcal infection include antimicrobial chemoprophylaxis following identification of an index case, use of droplet precautions, vaccination prior to exposure, and avoidance of exposure.

Authors: Muhammad Adil  , Fajarwaty Kusumawardhani
Published: September 2022

Reforms in the field of public management have become mainstream in the bureaucracy and governance, especially in terms of regional development planning. Therefore, planners as the spearhead of regional planning is required to be able to meet the qualifications (competence) as human resources in all support systems of government institutions. Competency development is a necessity for planners and should be directed to arrangements that are in accordance with their field of duty. This study fills in the scarcity of research results related to planners in the Meranti Islands Regency, which is the youngest district in Riau Province. Since its division from Bengkalis Regency in 2008, the Meranti Islands Regency has still not been able to show significant progress. The placement of the planners has not been based on its competence. Efforts to develop the competence of the planners have not been carried out systematically and strategically. This has an impact on the planning and budgeting of the Meranti Islands Regency which has not been effective and efficient. Qualitative research methods with SWOT analysis were used to answer research questions and extract data. This approach is needed as an analytical tool to reach the conclusions expected in this study. The results of the study illustrate that planners need to be equipped with training in order to achieve the desired competencies and be able to plan regional development optimally

Sexting. Eine Fallstudie zur Jugendkriminalität im digitalen Raum
Authors: Bohn Robert
Published: September 2022

Soziale Netzwerke fördern unter Jugendlichen zunehmend auf die eigene Person zugeschnittene Inszenierungsstrategien, wobei Übergänge zu rein sexualisierter Selbstdarstellung dabei oft fließend sind. Im Mittelpunkt der Fallstudie Sexting steht der an die Alltagswirklichkeit angelehnte Fall zweier junger Menschen, Jochen und Inga (beide 15 Jahre), die während ihrer Beziehung einvernehmlich intime Fotos machen. Nach dem Ende ihres Verhältnisses setzt Jochen eine Aufnahme für kompromittierende Zwecke gegen Inga ein und handelt damit rechtswidrig. Die Behandlung dieser Problematik soll Jugendliche sensibilisieren, Persönlichkeitsrechte Dritter im digitalen Raum zu achten und dazu beitragen, mögliche sich daran anschließende juristische Schritte zu verstehen, um das eigene Rechtsverständnis zu erweitern.

Published: September 2022

Introduction: Infertility is the most critical factor disrupting the marital relationship, which imposes high financial and psychological costs on couples. Despite vast advances, the problem of infertility has not yet been entirely resolved. The new method of injecting platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has been promising for couples. This study investigated the effect of PRP injection on the fertility of infertile women. Material and Method: In this study, 40 women with a history of infertility with a mean age of 37.75 were included in the study. Prior to the demographic information intervention, laboratory findings, including serum anti-mullerian hormone (AMH) levels and ultrasound for the number of antral follicles count (AFC) were performed. Autologous PRP was then prepared for each patient, and an intraovarian injection was performed. Two months after injection, serum levels of AMH and AFC levels were re-evaluated. Results: The mean AMH levels before and after the injection were 0.07±0.05 and 0.13±0.06, respectively (p
Assessment of posterior tilting of the hyoid bone in relation to carotid atherosclerosis: a CBCT study
Authors: KOÇ Nagihan
Published: September 2022

Aim: The present study aimed to investigate whether the presence and areal and volumetric measurements of the unilateral extra-cranial carotid artery calcifications (ECACs) are associated with posterior tilting of the hyoid bone. Material and Method: A total of 658 cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans were screened for the presence of ECACs. The calcifications were categorized as unilateral (right or left) or bilateral. Study group was consisted of cases with unilateral ECACs. A control group without ECACs matching with study group by age and gender was created. Volumetric and areal measurements in the ECAC group were done by using Mimics Medical software. Posterior tilting of the hyoid bone in relation to mid-sagittal plane and the dimension of posterior inclination through the greater horns were measured on i-Cat Vision software. Results: In total, 71 (10.8%) ECACs (30 bilateral and 41 unilateral) were detected. Study group consisted of 41 (6.2%) unilateral ECAC cases [25 (61%) females and 16 (39%) males]. Gender and age distributions were similar between ECAC and control groups. No significant difference between two groups was found considering the prevalence of posterior tilting of the hyoid bone (63.4% vs. 43.9%, p=0.240). Similarly, there was no significant difference in the mean dimension of posterior inclination between groups (2.48±2.12 mm. vs. 2.24±1.47 mm, p=0.646). The volume and areal measurements of calcifications were not correlated with the dimension of posterior inclination of the hyoid bone. Conclusion: Posterior tilting of the hyoid bone may be a frequent finding in cases of unilateral ECAC. However, the present findings suggest that no significant relationship exists between the presence of unilateral ECACs and posterior tilting of the hyoid bone.

Published: September 2022

Aim: To determine the etiological causes, radiological and laboratory features of transudative pleural effusions and to observe the clinical course after therapeutic thoracentesis.
Material and Method: The files of patients with transudative effusion who underwent therapeutic thoracentesis by the Interventional Radiology Department between 01.01.2012 and 30.11.2012 were retrospectively reviewed. Pleural effusion (PE) anatomical features were evaluated with Postero anterior (PA) chest X-ray and Thorax Ultrasonography (USG). Demographic and clinical features, pleural effusion analysis results, presence and rates of complications were analyzed.
Results: As a result of pleural fluid analysis, our study group consisted of 60 transudative pleural effusion cases, 36 (60%) women. The mean age was 71.23±2.36 years. Patients using diuretic therapy in cases with pleural effusion were statistically significantly higher than patients who did not (p<0.05). The most common etiologic causes were Congestive heart failure (CHF) and the accompanying disease hypertension (HT). Fifty (83.3%) of the pleural effusions were unilateral and 39 (65%) of them were right-sided (p<0.05). Diagnostic and therapeutic thoracentesis of our cases was performed by the radiologist under the guidance of thorax USG, and pneumothorax was observed in only one case (1.7%). In our 2-month clinical follow-up, the presence of recurrent pleural effusion was not detected in any of the cases.
Conclusion: In cases with persistent transudative pleural effusion, therapeutic thoracentesis can be considered in cases where fluid resorption is not at the desired level despite effective treatment.

Published: September 2022

Aim: Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) could be an early marker for amyloidosis before developing of overt symptoms of cardiac amyloidosis (CA). CA characterized with left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction and impairment of LV deformation-based parameters. There is limited data about echocardiographic parameters such as strain value of LV, diastolic parameters and atrial EMD in patients with idiopathic CTS. In this study, we investigated LV strain values, diastolic parameters of LV and atrial EMD in patients with idiopathic CTS. Then, we compared these parameters in CTS patients to control group.
Material and Method: Thirty-four patients with idiopathic CTS and twenty-four aged and sex matched volunteers were enrolled to study. Patients with known amyloidosis, heart failure, diabetes mellitus and secondary etiologic states for CTS such as trauma or rheumatologic disease were excluded from the study. ECG and echocardiographic examination of each patient were performed and recorded by cardiology specialist. Conventional and strain imaging echocardiography were performed. Atrial electromechanical delays (EMD) were measured.
Results: Baseline characteristics features were not different in groups. Mitral inflow velocities (mitral E and A wave), mitral E wave deceleration time, tissue Doppler velocities (lateral annular E’ and A wave), E/A and E/E’ ratios were similar in two groups. Septal basal strain values increased in CTS group (-21.3±4.83% vs -25.7±2.96%, p<0.001). Septal apical to base ratio (SAB) and relative apical sparing (RELAPS) were increased in CTS group compared to control group (0.94±0.43 vs 0.66±0.12, 0.90±0.31 vs 0.73±0.08, p=0.004, p=0.013, respectively). PA lateral, PA septal, inter-atrial EMD and intra-atrial EMD were significantly higher in CTS group compared to control group (78.2±12.3 ms vs 70.6±9.9 ms, 64.1±8.42 ms vs 58.3±10.1 ms, 25.8±9.09 ms vs 20.7±5.31 ms, 11.68±5.11 ms vs 8.46±3.02 ms, p=0.015, p=0.023, p=0.009 and p=.008, respectively).
Conclusion: In CTS group, mean basal strain decreased compared to control group. SAB and RELAPS which associate with CA, decreased in CTS group. Atrial EMD prolonged in CTS group. These changes may associate with increased risk of CA and AF in patients with CTS.

Published: September 2022

It is very important to conserve the built heritage of a country using well integrated sustainable measures. Indeed, all historical monuments should be appropriately and accurately conserved irrespective of their visibility. The ethics of the conservation of any building, monument, or site pertains to their individual conditions and thus conservation measures should be suggested accordingly. In individual cases of conservation, the set of decisions taken may vary from time to time in response to the condition of the site. Therefore, both tangible and intangible sets of remedies to conserve a particular heritage site should be designed to produce an accumulative solution for its conservation. Keeping in view the conservation of Baha-ul-Halim’s tomb, a detailed and systematic approach has been adopted and proposed in this paper. Different aspects of its conservation have been discussed and future implications are also stated for the sustainable management of this heritage site.

How Tmrt Affects PET Assessment in Outdoor Environments: A Comparative Study
Authors: Labdaoui Kahina , Mahar Waqas Ahmed , Qureshi Sabeen , Marri Sohrab Ahmed
Published: September 2022

Many studies have explored outdoor thermal comfort during the last several years, ever since it has been strongly related to human health and well-being. The physiological equivalent temperature (PET) is one of the most commonly used thermal comfort indexes. It has been approved and applied within different urban spaces and climates. This study is a comparative research that explored the importance of using mean radiant temperature (Tmrt) in PET assessment by employing two different methods. The first method was used to calculate PET based on three measured variables including relative humidity, wind velocity, and air temperature. RayMan software was utilized to perform the calculations. The second method was used to calculate PET by combining Envi-met and RayMan. Envi-met allowed four sets of calibrated data, including the data of air temperature (Ta), wind velocity (Wv), relative humidity (RH), and mean radiant temperature (Tmrt). RayMan software used the calibrated results to calculate PET. These methods were explored in outdoor environments at Annaba, Algeria, characterized by a Mediterranean climate. The results showed significant differences in PET values, especially through the warmest times of the day. The first method highlighted very high PET values, where 40 ≤PET<51 at noon. At the same time, using Tmrt gave precise PET values (30≤PET ≤32). Based on these findings, we can confirm the importance of considering Tmrt in PET calculation, which allows one to identify the accurate comfort range.

The Multifaceted Reaction in the Twenty-First Century: A New Stage in the Evolution of the Right
Authors: Stefanoni Pablo
Published: September 2022

The emergence of a new type of far right movements embodies something quite different from the conventional right-wing politics of the 80s or 90s. The thesis of this article is that we are facing more than just new forms of conservative reaction; the new right-wingers chal-lenge the left on the disputed field of social nonconformism in a con-text in which the image of the "decadence of the West" resonates again. This political-cultural complex functions a lot like a rhizome, that is, as a structure without a center, without lines of pyramidal or arborescent subordination, without root or trunk, and without predefined articulating joints. Both the new political forces and the circulation of meaning on the Internet are giving shape to a new kind of anti-progressive reaction, with a transgressive spirit as one of its most con-noted elements. While any idea of a thinkable future is in crisis, at least in the West, retro-utopias, conspirative paranoia and certain forms of resentment tend to multiply and draw from various sources of indignation. Some key words (cultural marxism, wokeism, new inquisition, etc.) contribute to the construction of discourses in which the left is assigned to the side of the elites while the reactionary right represents the working masses.
Third Congress of the Comintern: Between the March Action and the "United Front"
Authors: Shubin Alexander
Published: September 2022

The article examines the evolution of the Comintern policy in 1921. In the conditions of the ebb of the World Revolutionary Wave, the Com-munists faced the need to choose a political tactic: either an attempt to counterattack, reverse the trend of the offensive of capital, or the accu-mulation of forces and cooperation with social democracy in opposing this offensive. Each of these lines had supporters in the parties of the Comintern and its leadership, and the struggle between them led to splits and fluctuations in the policy of the Comintern. The expression of the first way was the "March action" in Germany, the expression of the second was the January letter of the OKPG and the policy of the "united workers' front". At the Third Congress of the Comintern, the supporters of the second line, led by Lenin, actually won, but they did not dare to condemn the "March action" and proclaim the policy of the "united front" at the congress. This inconsistency also influenced the subsequent course of the Comintern, even after it adopted the moderate line of the "united front", but did not get rid of the adventurism of the "March action". This results already affected the events of the "German October" in 1923.

ЕВОЛЮЦІЯ МЕТОДОЛОГІЇ ОЦІНЮВАННЯ ЖИТТЄВОГО ЦИКЛУ: СВІТОВИЙ ТА ВІТЧИЗНЯНИЙ КОНТЕКСТИ
Authors: Коблянська Інна
Published: September 2022

Подекадна періодизація розвитку методології оцінки життєвого циклу у світі дозволила ідентифікувати основні фактори, які сприяли її успішній трансформації та перетворенню з ізольованої процедури, що впроваджується в окремих компаніях, на всеохопний та універсальний інструмент підтримки сталих управлінських рішень, методична база якого і надалі збагачується та доповнюється. Це, передусім: політичне визнання, стандартизація, поширення знань та інформації. Сучасний етап розвитку оцінки життєвого циклу в Україні можна співставити з періодом «привернення уваги», що мав місце у США та Європі у 60-ті роки ХХ ст.: це окремі ізольовані бізнес-кейси, в яких застосовуються найпростіші методи. Наголошено на необхідності посилення обміну знаннями, створення спеціалізованих платформ, стимулювання дискусії у бізнес-колах та владних інституціях з приводу реалізації практик оцінювання життєвого циклу для подолання наявного розриву.
ОСОБЛИВОСТІ ПІСЛЯВОЄННОГО ВІДНОВЛЕННЯ ЕКОНОМІКИ УКРАЇНИ
Authors: Хмарська Ірина , Кучерява Каріна , Клімова Інна
Published: September 2022

Військові події на теренах України стали основною причиною реструктуризації вітчизняної економічної системи. Визначено, що активні бойові дії не просто стримують роботу певних галузей, а унеможливлюють їх функціонування; доведено, що за актуальних обставин занепад економіки України був неминучим та до сьогодні залишається характерним, що має своє відображення у зниженні ВВП, зростанні рівня інфляції, макроекономічній нестабільності тощо. До комплексу негативних факторів, джерелом яких стала повномасштабна війна, також варто віднести і зниження зайнятості, платоспроможності громадян, відсутність дієвих, перевірених досвідом механізмів реалізації монетарної, фіскальної, валютної політики в умовах війни, унеможливлення прогнозування соціально-економічних показників, загальний ріст ризиків серед населення і бізнесу. Відповідно, маючи стійкий занепад виробничо-господарського сектору і сповільнення бізнес-активності, пріоритетною задачею для влади є пошук шляхів реформування і стабілізації із подальшим повоєнним відновленням вітчизняної економіки, що, власне, підтверджує важливість дослідження проблематики в умовах сьогодення. Наукова стаття має на меті проведення оригінального дослідження перспектив післявоєнного відновлення економіки України на основі аналізу її актуального стану і тенденцій функціонування в умовах повномасштабної війни. Дослідження проблематики здійснювалось завдяки застосуванню методів порівняння, абстракції, аналізу та узагальнення. В результаті проведеного дослідження було узагальнено вплив війни на соціальні і економічні процеси в Україні, загальний стан вітчизняної економіки, а також визначено сутність післявоєнного відновлення економічної системи; авторами було детерміновано, що післявоєнне відновлення являє собою складний, багатовекторний процес, який має на меті запуск економіки України, зокрема окремих галузей, що втратили свою активність або ж можливості для реалізації діяльності в результаті розгортання повномасштабної війни на теренах нашої держави. На основі аналізу передумов економічної дестабілізації авторами було визначено перспективи і особливості післявоєнного відновлення економіки України.

The article examines the economic and psychological aspects of business development in modern conditions. It is determined that entrepreneurial activity provides a powerful incentive for highly productive work, profit and, ultimately, better satisfaction of social needs, and the development of entrepreneurship is determined by the state and level of market relations and, above all, the necessary conditions for private sector freedom in the economy. Given the important tasks of entrepreneurship in the national economic system, it is justified that its development is influenced by a large number of factors, among which recently the leading place is occupied by the economic and psychological component of small and medium business. It is generalized that the behavioral approach has created a basis for the classification of management styles of the enterprise (organization), behavior and leadership. However, neither the approach to the study of effective entrepreneurship from the standpoint of personal qualities, nor the behavioral approach could not reveal, for all their importance, a direct logical connection between personal qualities or behavior of the manager in business practice and success. Within the framework of the entrepreneurial type, the positive and negative qualities of modern entrepreneurship are highlighted. Positive qualities include such characteristics as adventurous, purposeful, ambitious, creative, enterprising, innovative, free-thinking, creative, practical, proactive, strong-willed. Negative - instructive, harsh, limited (using only professional knowledge in their work), arrogant, and so on. In the structure of entrepreneurial success, it is proposed to distinguish two components: personal success and success in project implementation, as well as its personal and social aspects. The main difficulties that entrepreneurs have to face at different stages of business development are identified. The components that ensure the effective operation of the entrepreneur are structured. First, it is the usefulness of its activities for society. Only in this case you can expect a positive reaction from others. Secondly, respect for loved ones and colleagues. Third, stability, which allows you to feel much more confident and work hard to move forward. Fourth, a favorite thing that evokes feelings of joy and satisfaction.

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) through the carotid artery in middle-aged patients with severe aortic stenosis and chronic hemodialysis has been a challenge in clinical practice because of the complex technique. A 60-year-old man was admitted to our hospital because of his symptomatic severe aortic stenosis. With the high risk of open surgery due to chronic hemodialysis, TAVR was selected after an in-depth discussion between the heart team and the patient. The transfemoral access route was not appropriate due to severe calcifications and tortuous iliofemoral arteries, therefore, the left carotid route was chosen. A 29-mm CoreValve Evolut R system was successfully implanted without any complications. His symptoms significantly improved at 12-month follow-up, without any major cardiovascular adverse events. TAVR via the carotid artery thus demonstrates the feasibility, safety, and effectiveness in such complex conditions.

Introduction: COVID-19 in children has a diverse clinical presentation, most of which is asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic. In addition, after 2-6 weeks of being infected with COVID-19, children may have the multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C), which is rare but serious condition, death has also been reported despite active treatment. We describe a severe clinical case of MIS-C treated at our hospital in the early stage of the 4th wave of COVID-19 in Vietnam.

Case report: A six-year-old boy admitted to Thu Duc City Hospital on August 27th, 2021. He had a history of COVID-19, which was diagnosed by a positive RT-PCR SARS CoV-2 test on July 24th, 2021. He had no symptoms and was concentrated quarantine with his family. He was discharged on August 12th, 2021. Four weeks after SARS-CoV-2 infection, he had symptoms such as sustained fever (5 days), stomachache (6 days), erythema multiform (8 days), eye and lip swelling (7 days), edema of hands and feet (10 days), dyspnea (5 days), hepatomegaly and shock. After then, he was diagnosed with MIS-C and treated with intravenous methylprednisolone 2 mg/kg/day (3 days), then tapered 1 mg/kg/day (5 days), maintained with prednisone 1 mg/kg/day for 14 days. The patient had no clinical symptoms, was discharged after 14 days of treatment, and continued treatment with aspirin 3 mg/kg/day and prednisolone 1 mg/kg/day.

Conclusion: The MIS-C manifestation following SARS-CoV2 infection needs prompt attention and treatment. Intravenous immunoglobulin plays an important role in treatment. However, when intravenous immunoglobulin is not available where limited resources, early appropriate use of methylprednisolone may be beneficial.

Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is one of the most common neurodegenerative conditions. However, studies on the classifications and symptoms of CTS from the perspective of traditional medicine are still limited. Our study aims to identify traditional medicine disease nomenclature and symptoms of CTS by the survey form.

A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted at The 3rd branch of University Medical Center HCMC, Thong Nhat Hospital from March 2021 to June 2021. We conducted a study survey on patients diagnosed with primary CTS and agreed to participate in the study with survey questionnaires, data were processed by using Excel 2016 and Lantern 5.0 software.

48 symptoms collected from 94 patients with CTS based on questionnaires were included in the Latent Tree Model. Compared with the medical literature review, there were 40/48 symptoms and 5 patterns appearing in the collected sample. These 5 main patterns: Blood stasis has 4 symptoms, yin deficiency has 6 symptoms, damp heat has 3 symptoms, blood deficiency has 3 symptoms and invasion of meridians of wind cold has 3 symptoms to diagnose. The results of the study have shown that the results of the algorithms are statistically significant when comparing clusters of latent variables with traditional medicine descriptions. Therefore, the use of the results of the machine has a scientific basis in terms of statistics.

After analyzing clinical data from 94 patients with Latent Tree Model, it was found that 5 disease patterns appeared with symptoms helping diagnose those disease patterns.

Early diagnosis is key in testicular torsion. This study is to validate the diagnostic value of the “Testicular Workup for Ischemia and Suspected Torsion (TWIST)” score for evaluating acute scrotum in children.

Patients from 1 month old to 16 years old presented to Children’s hospital No.1 with acute scrotum between June 1 st, 2020, and May 31 st, 2021 were prospectively studied. General surgeons performed an examination and recorded signs and symptoms in the collection form. After that, all patients had Scrotal Doppler Ultrasound (DUS). We calculated the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive, and negative predictive values of the TWIST score. The ROC curve was used to find out the optimal cut-off in diagnosing Testicular torsion (TT) in Children.

Among 68 children with acute scrotum, 16 cases had TT (23.5%). The median age was 12.5 years in the TT group and 9 years in the non-TT group. None of 32 patients with the TWIST score ≤ 2 had TT and among 20 patients with a score of 3 – 4, only one had TT. More importantly, in the high-risk group with a score ≥ 5, 15 had TT (93.8%). ROC curve revealed an AUC of 0.987 (p<0,001) representing a high diagnostic value. The sensitivity and specificity for TT at 5-point cut-off were 93.7% and 98.1%, respectively.

The TWIST scoring system has high sensitivity and specificity values. Therefore, it should be used as a useful tool for the diagnosis of testicular torsion. The score ≥ 5 is an indicator of testicular torsion, hence emergency surgical intervention is required.

A mental disorder is a state of mental health deviance in a period and leads to the disruption of a body’s self-balance. Adolescence is a period of many psychophysiological changes, and several factors which are related to personal characteristic, family and school could adversely affect a child’s mental well-being. The objectives of the study were to determine the prevalence of mental disorders and ascertain some associated factors in middle school students (ages 12-15) in Tuy Hoa city, Phu Yen province, Viet Nam 2021.

A cross-sectional study was conducted from March to April on 539 students and parents at middle schools in Tuy Hoa city, Viet Nam in 2021. Parents were requested to complete the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ).

The prevalence of having mental disorders in middle school students was 22.7%. The difference between the prevalences of having mental disorders in male and female students was statistically significant (p=0.014), grade lever (p=0.020), conduct (p=0.040), concern from parents (p=0.046), family conflicts (p=0.029), being scolded for making mistakes by parents (p=0.004) and being bullied by classmates (p=0.045).

Experiencing mental disorders was relatively prevalent among middle school students. Some factors which were related to family and school environments were found associated with psychiatric disorders. Therefore, interventions and cooperation from parents and school officers are essential to mitigate students’ sufferings caused by mental health problems, promote psychological well-being, or preclude psychoses from occurring.
Investigating sleep quality and related factors of postoperative patients at Tay Nguyen Regional General Hospital, Dak Lak Province, Vietnam
Authors: Chu Thanh Thi Giang
Published: September 2022

As we know, sleep is very important and necessary for every person. Especially, among patients undergoing surgery as an effective form of treatment, they also need a good quality of sleep to restore both physiological and psychological health. However, poor sleep quality is common in patients after surgery and produces harmful effects on postoperative recovery.

This study was conducted to investigate the quality of sleep and identify related factors among postoperative patients at the Department of General Surgery, Tay Nguyen Regional General Hospital, Dak Lak Province.

A cross-sectional descriptive study was performed. 374 postoperative patients who meet the sampling criteria were recruited by simple random sampling between March and July 2021. General information data were collected through interviews with structured questionnaires, and the patient’s sleep quality was assessed by using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) Vietnamese version. Data analysis was performed via SPSS ver 20.0; p < 0.05 was statistically significant.

The average mean of PSQI score was 10.3 ± 3.27 (range = 0 -21, SD = 3.27). The percentage of postoperative patients who had poor sleep quality was 78.1%. Factors associated with poor sleep quality include old age (p < 0.01), education level (p < 0.05), level of postoperative pain (p < 0.001).

The frequency of poor sleep quality among postoperative patients is high. The findings of this study also provide a better understanding of related factors that affect poor sleep quality. So, the nurses should develop an appropriate care plan to improve sleep quality in these patients by controlling the above factors. It will help these patients recover fastest and most comprehensively in the postoperative period, enhancing the quality of care.

Published: September 2022

This study was conducted to build an early forecast model for the dengue epidemic using an artificial neural network (ANN) in Vung Tau City in Ba Ria - Vung Tau province. Weather factors (temperature, precipitation, humidity, wind speed) were all correlated with the number of dengue cases (p<0.05) in the 1/2010-12/2020 period. The ANN is a simulated information processing model based on the activity of the organism’s nervous system, consisting of a large number of neurons mounted to process information. Of all the models we built, the ANN 10-7-1 model gave the best results with a total squared error (SSE) and relative error (RE) during network training of SSE=25.23, respectively; RE=0,58; correlation coefficient R2 =29.1%. The model showed that the number of dengue cases have marked tendencies to increase to increase or to decrease, also the forecast data was almost accurate compared to the actual number of dengue cases. The ANN can be applied to predict future dengue outbreaks in Vung Tau City. To increase the accuracy of the ANN model, it needs to be combined with other factors such as housing index, mosquito density, population,...

Phát hiện nguồn phát tán thông tin sai lệch trên mạng xã hội trực tuyến đóng vai trò quan trọng trong việc hạnchế hành vi sai trái trên mạng. Các nghiên cứu gần đây cho thấy, phương pháp đặt máy giám sát có thể phát hiện nguồn thông tin sai lệch. Tuy nhiên, không thể đặt máy giám sát đối với tất cả người dùng mạng vì ngân sách hạn chế. Trong bài báo này, một mạng xã hội được biểu diễn bởi đồ thị có hướng, mỗi người dùng là một nút trên đồ thị và phát tán thông tin trên đồ thị theo mô hình Bậc độc lập. Trên mô hình này, giả sử biết trước tập nút nghi ngờ sẽ phát tán thông tin sai lệch, chúng tôi đề xuất tìm tập nút nhỏ nhất để đặt giám sát sao cho số nút bị phát hiện đạt ít nhất một ngưỡng cho trước. Ba thuật toán xấp xỉ được đề xuất, bao gồm: Tham lam, phát hiện thông tin sai lệch dựa trên tập mẫu phát hiện và phát hiện thông tin sai lệch dựa trên tập mẫu phát hiện quan trọng. Các thử nghiệm được thực hiện trên bộ dữ liệu của mạng xã hội thực cho thấy các thuật toán của chúng tôi đề xuất vượt trội hơn các thuật toán khác cả về hiệu suất và thời gian thực hiện.
