Investigation of composite coating induces noise reduction for circular saw blade
Authors: Kang Jinyou , Sun Depeng , Zhang Jinsheng S.
Published: December 2022

Sawing is the most common process applied in the primary and secondary machining sectors. Unfortunately, circular saw blades (CSBs), as the main tool for sawing, will generate excessive noise in the idling and processing, affecting the user's health and the workpiece surface quality. Hitherto, numerous studies have modified the body structures of CSBs for noise reduction. Its challenge is to reduce the CSB’s stiffness and bearing capacity. Here, a novel composite coating circular saw blade (CCSB) was proposed indirectly improving material damping properties. Subsequently, the frequency response characteristics and harmonic acoustics of CSBs were analyzed by the finite element (FE) simulation. Results suggested that the CCSB can present a notable noise reduction ability. It was found that the peak value of the radiation noise for CSBs is mainly concentrated around the sawtooth passing frequency (SPF). By the analysis of the vertical field, the CCSB disorganizes the original sound pressure level (SPL) field due to the dissipation of shear energy, improving the original SPL distribution. The proposed analysis method of the CCSB can provide theoretical guidance for design, optimize low-noise CSBs and improve the processing environment in the future.
Density-depended acoustical identification of two common seaweeds (Posidonia oceanica and Cymodocea nodosa) in the Mediterranean Sea
Authors: Mutlu Erhan , Olguner Cansu
Published: December 2022

The non-destructive samplings are very important in not damaging seagrasses and seaweed under protection, at the field studies. The grasses are prominent in the assessment of the ecological status of the marine environments. One of the effective non-destructive samplings was the acoustical methods which need a low level of the sea and atmospheric conditions as compared to the other remote sensing system. Like the others, acoustic data alone are inherently ambiguous concerning the identities of the scatterers and need sea-truthing at the field studies. Considering the requirements above and the advantages of the acoustical methods, an acoustical in situ study was conducted to discriminate two dominant seagrasses along the western Turkish Mediterranean coast in August (in the year 2012) when biometrics of both species was at maxima. Four different regions were involved in the study during data collection using a split beam echosounder operated at 206 kHz since each region had different strengths of their biometrics reflecting regional variations of the acoustical measurements. For discrimination, a statistical approach based on the acoustical parameters and their statistics was enriched and validated with multivariate analyses (Silhouette, k-means, PCA and CAP analyses). Posidonia oceanica was correlated with mean, median, SD and maximum value of Sa, whereas Cymodocea nodosa was characterized by hardness and roughness of leaf echo, followed by skewness and kurtosis of Sa. The acoustics of C. nodosa were related to regional differences, but P. oceanica was related to the depthwise difference. Both species had highly different densities (g/cm3), followed by biomass. The present study will interactively help acoustical studies to be more common and comprehensible and the other previous studies published did as well.
Determination of lead and cadmium in non-mineralized raw milk samples employing extraction with magnetic restricted access carbon nanotubes followed by FAAS analysis

Published: December 2022

Lead and cadmium were determined in non-mineralized raw milk samples employing dispersive solid phase extraction with magnetic restricted access carbon nanotubes (M-RACNTs), followed by flame atomic absorption spectrometry analysis. M-RACNTs were obtained by modifying carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with magnetite nanoparticles and then covering with a chemically crosslinked bovine serum albumin (BSA) external layer. The M-RACNTs particles were very efficient to capture the metals and exclude proteins from the milk, being easily separated from the sample using a neodymium magnet. The extraction parameters were appraised by multivariate optimization (factorial design and Doehlert matrix). The method was validated and proved to be robust for small variations, simple, fast, sensitive and selective. The determination coefficient and limit of quantification were 0.998 and 10 µg L-1, respectively, for both Pb2+ and Cd2+ ions. The developed method was able to determine both metals in concentrations below the maximum residue limits (20 and 50 µg L-1 for Pb2+ and Cd+, respectively, in Brazil), demonstrating that M-RACNTs are promising materials for metal extraction in protein-rich samples, without the need for mineralization procedures.
Blockchain Mining: Understanding its Difficulty in Terms of Hashing Algorithm Efficiency
Authors: MARTINEZ CARLOS ROBERTO MARTINEZ
Published: December 2022

Blockchain is an emerging technology that offers great advantages such as global distribution of information and data immutability over time, but its mining process is known to be time consuming and highly resource demanding. There are different algorithms to mine blocks, being able to operate at different levels of complexity and also incurring different compute costs. This study used a custom and simple implementation of the MessageDigest Java class to evaluate the performance of MD5 version 2, SHA2, and SHA3 (the last two in modalities of 256 and 512-bits) when automatically creating a chain of a thousand blocks, measuring its average time for generation and proof of work verification, alongside to the count of incurred iterations. The SHA3 methods produced stronger hash values but performed slower than MD5 and SHA2, and the complexity level of 4 characters offered the best security level in terms of iteration count versus calculation time. Complexity levels of 5 and 6 characters offered greater security but with a drastic performance reduction, which is proper for critical security systems that do not process high volumes of information. These results are useful for those small to medium organizations that are planning to implement blockchain technologies and need a parameter for understanding exactly what ‘mining cost’ really means in terms of compute costs.

Authors: Wang Changqing , He Qing , Guo Peng , Qi Haoqiang , Su Jianfeng , Chen Weiguang , Tang Chunjuan , Jia Yu
Published: December 2022

Based on the first-principle, the friction anisotropy, structural super-lubricity and oxidation induced ultra-low friction of black phosphorus at atomic scale under different loads have been studied. The results show that the interface friction of black phosphorus shows anisotropy, that is, the friction along the armchair direction is greater than that along the zigzag direction. Moreover, the friction between the black phosphorus interfaces shows a structural superlubricity property, and the incommensurate interface friction is about one thousandth of the commensurate interface friction. In addition, the oxidation of black phosphorus is beneficial to the lubrication between interfaces.
Multi-target based virtual screening of phytochemicals from Heliotropium indicum L. leaves for identification of potential anti-urolithiatic agent
Authors: Kumar Vivek , Gupta Pawan , Sharma Vishnu , Munshi Anjana , Dhiman Anju
Published: December 2022

Heliotropium indicum Linn., a plant also known as 'Indian heliotrope,' is found in tropical and temperate regions of the world, and throughout India. This plant exhibits varieties of therapeutic effects like anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, anti-fertility, anti-nociceptive, and anti-tumor activities. In addition, the Heliotropium indicum L. plant have been reported to have therapeutic effects in kidney stone or urolithiasis. But it is not reported to date which phytochemicals are responsible for it. The current studies deal with multi-targets-based virtual screening for identification of the phytochemicals found in Heliotropium indicum L. leaves against different targets including antioxidants and anti-urolithiatic proteins. From the molecular docking-based screening, it was found that phytochemicals Pestalamide B, Rapanone, and Supinine possess had excellent binding modes against the targets selected for urolithiasis activities. However, 3`-Acetyl lycopsamine, Trachelanthamine, Lycopsamine, Heliotrine, Rinderine, Echinatine exhibited the binding modes with some anti-urolithiasis targets only along with all the antioxidant targets. Therefore, these phytochemicals from Heliotropium indicum L. leaves were found to have high potential in urolithiasis, but need to be proved experimentally. These phytochemicals are never reported against urolithiasis or kidney stone to date. Therefore, the results of the current studies can be exploited further for designing and discovering new anti-urolithiasis agents for the treatment of kidney stone/urolithiasis.
Integrated Bioinformatics Analysis Revealed Stemness Features and a Novel Stemness-Related Gene Signature for Risk Stratification in Pheochromocytomas and Paragangliomas
Authors: Li Lei , Qiu Ling
Published: December 2022

Numerous studies have shown that tumor stemness is closely related to the heterogeneous growth of tumor cells and their proliferation, distant metastasis, and resistance to chemotherapy. However, comprehensive studies on the stemness of pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PPGLs) are still lacking. The mRNA expression-based stemness indices (mRNAsi) reflecting tumor cell stemness were calculated using the OCLR machine-learning algorithm and PPGLs patients' RNAseq data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). The relationship between clinical, molecular and immune microenvironment characteristics of PPGLs patients and mRNAsi values was investigated based on the hub genes that best captured the stem cell characteristics of PPGLs using Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis (WGCNA), Cox and LASSO regression analysis. The higher mRNAsi may be associated with tumor metastasis in SDHB wild-type PPGLs patients, meanwhile also demonstrated lower immune, stromal, and ESTIMATE scores and suppressive tumor immune microenvironment than the low mRNAsi group. The stemness scoring system could be used for the prognostic prediction of PPGLs patients with the high predictive ability (AUC = 0.908), and the patients with lower stemness-related risk scores demonstrated improved immunotherapy responsiveness in the TCGA-PPGLs patient cohort and the real-world cohort of patients receiving immunotherapy. In contrast, PPGLs patients with high stemness-related risk scores showed higher sensitivity to multiple chemotherapeutic agents.We developed and verified a novel stemness scoring system that can be applied to predict prognosis and guide the choice of treatment strategies.

Published: December 2022

Introdução: A Lei de Cotas ampliou a inserção de pessoas com deficiência (PCD) no mercado de trabalho, todavia são muitos os desafios para a garantia dos direitos desta população. Capacitações e encaminhamentos ao trabalho são realizados por instituições de reabilitação e assistência social para que ocorra a inserção no trabalho das PCDs que recebem o Benefício de Prestação Continuada (BPC). Há, contudo, falta de iniciativa de algumas PCDs e seus familiares, por desinformação ou medo da perda do BPC. Objetivos: investigar o estresse, depressão e qualidade de vida das PCDs que recebem o BPC e identificar seu interesse pelo mercado de trabalho. Participantes: 16 beneficiários adultos. Procedimentos: aplicação individual de Inventário de Sintomas de Stress para Adultos de Lipp, Escala Baptista de Depressão, Questionário de Qualidade de Vida (WHOQOL-bref) e questionário sociodemográfico. Resultados: 75% da amostra apresentou estresse; 37,5% sintomatologia para depressão leve ou moderada; PCD visual com piores índices de qualidade de vida para os domínios físico, meio ambiente e relações sociais e PCD intelectual com índices ruins nos domínios psicológico e relações sociais. Conclusão: estresse, depressão e qualidade de vida não representaramuma limitação para interesse laboral, no entanto algumas PCDs e seus familiares temem a perda do benefício, pois o BPC, muitas vezes, é a única renda recebida. Há necessidade de intervenção junto as PCDs e famílias, com políticas públicas buscando melhorias das condições apontadas, por meio da informação e estímulo à inserção no trabalho.
Synchronization of the Ukrainian criminal legislation with the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union
Authors: Demydova Liudmyla Mykolaivna
Published: December 2022

The article is devoted to clarifying the compliance of the current legislation of Ukraine with the provisions of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union. The author evaluates the norms of the Constitution of Ukraine from the perspective of the Charter, and then analyzes the completeness of their reflection in the provisions of the Special Part of the Criminal Code of Ukraine. Special attention is paid to human dignity as a priority right recognized by the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union.

The author agrees with researchers who recognize that the new "philosophy of human rights" is implemented in the Charter, which receives a normative embodiment in the founding documents of the European Union, and supports the proposal to make appropriate changes to the text of the current Constitution of Ukraine.

The existing incompleteness of the criminal law protection of such a fundamental right as human dignity in Ukrainian legislation has been confirmed.

Attention is drawn to the practice of the European Court of Human Rights regarding value judgments that cannot be proven in court. It is argued that in such a situation, a person who defends his dignity has the right to express his opinion, assess what happened, with further consideration by the court of the issue of restoring the violated human right in a certain form. And in the presence of evaluative judgments, a person does not lose the right to compensation for damage caused by such judgments. The content, form, direction of such evaluative judgments, their impact on the addressee (the person it concerns), their publicity, etc., are important for the court to make a fair decision.

The author's suggestions regarding the further improvement of the criminal legislation of Ukraine with the aim of its proper synchronization with the legislation of the European Union are presented. Added additional argumentation regarding the need to criminalize slander and insults with clarification of the expediency of recognizing the relevant components of criminal offenses as material with a consequence in the form of compound damage (moral and material).
Культурно-антропологическое измерение современного уголовного права
Authors: Kozachenko Oleksandr Vasylovych , Musychenko Olha Mykhailivna
Published: December 2022

The spread of cultural-anthropological methodology to the problems of modern criminal law enabled to formulate a new doctrinal definition of criminal law as a culturally agreed system of social freedoms focused on protecting social, material and spiritual values that are the human culture achievements and belong to a person. The proposed cultural-anthropological dimension allowed us to substantiate the  appropriateness of recognition anthropodicy as a paradigm of modern criminal law.

The idea of periodization of  criminal law genesis was further developed with the identification of three qualitatively different periods of premodern, modern and postmodern, each of which is distinguished by a special role  played in culture in general and criminal law in particular.

The article provides  different understanding of social justice as the purpose of applying criminal law which is more complicated in the context of the rule of law dominance than in the traditional understanding of the compliance between crime and punishment.

The proposed approach allows to obtain a new type of criminal law, in which a person, regardless of the nature of participation in criminal relations, is provided with a number of rights and legal opportunities to protect their own, or those represented by it, interests. Іn addition, it creates grounds for further study of less global, but no less relevant problems of criminal law, in particular, ensuring objective criminalization, the formation of a coherent system of criminal law measures as a legal consequence of a socially dangerous act, the ratio of measures to physical and legal persons, etc.
Survey of the doctrine of the multiplicity of criminal offenses in the scientific works of Professor M. I. Bazhanov
Authors: Ірина Олександрівна Зінченко  , Shevchenko Yevhen Valeriiovych
Published: December 2022

The article is dedicated to the memory of the well-known scientist Professor M. I. Bazhanov, who made a significant contribution to the formation and development of the modern domestic science of criminal law.

It was noted that at the Department of Criminal Law of the Yaroslav Mudryi National Law University, the institute of multiplicity of criminal offenses it was the doctor of legal sciences, professor, academician of the Academy of Legal Sciences of Ukraine Mark Ihorovych Bazhanov who initiated the offenses. In his works such as "Prescribing punishment according to the totality of crimes and totality of sentences (1977), "Prescribing punishment according to Soviet criminal law" (1980), "Criminal law of Ukraine. General part" (1992), "Repetition of crimes as a type of multiplicity of crimes" (1993), "Multiplicity of crimes under the criminal law of Ukraine" (2000), several editions of the textbook "Criminal law of Ukraine: General part" (2001 , 2003) considered a wide range of issues related to the characteristics of the institution of the multiplicity of criminal offenses, their concepts, signs and types, problems of punishment, other legal consequences.

Much attention was paid to Professor M.I. Bazhanov devoted himself to the study of single criminal offenses as structural elements of the multiplicity of criminal offenses. In particular, under his scientific guidance, two dissertations of candidates of legal sciences were prepared and successfully defended, devoted to the specified torts: in 1990 - I. О. Zinchenko: "Compound crimes in Soviet criminal law: concepts, types, some problems of qualification and construction of sanctions" and in 2002 by Ye. V. Shevchenko: "Crimes with derivative consequences".

Thus, there is no doubt that M. I. Bazhanov's contribution to the study and development of the doctrine of the multiplicity of criminal offenses is extremely important, and his scientific concepts and expressed ideas are still relevant for the doctrine of criminal law today.
INTERSUBJECTIVISM OF LEGAL BODIES IN THE SPACE OF JUDICIAL PERFORMANCE
Authors: Meliakova Yuliia , Kovalenko Inna
Published: December 2022

This study touches upon the problem of modern interpretation of legal reality in the horizon of intersubjectivism. The key role is assigned to performative actionism, which is considered as a tactic for exercising the law and a method of learning the truth in the course of a trial. Law is understood as an action, process, event, deed, situation, a series of actions of agents of law. Actionism applies the principles of independent and effective interaction of agents of the modern integrative environment, and also provides a methodological justification for the new legal intersubjectivism of bodies in judicial practice.

FACTOR OF IDENTITY IN THE PROCESS OF FORMATION OF THE LATIN AMERICAN REGION
Authors: Pidkurkova Iryna
Published: December 2022

The article considers the evolution of the concept of “region”, which in the modern sense is no longer just a geographical entity. Prerequisites for its formation in a given area are historical, socio-cultural features, as well as the specifics of political organization. It is noted that in the process of regionalism (integration processes associated with the acquisition of subjectivity by regions), the actors of international relations form a certain degree of regional ability to articulate their interests. Based on the ideas of A. Harrell and A. Paasi on the formation of regions, the role of regional identity in this process is determined. The factors of identity of South American countries and the role of regional identity in the process of formation of the Latin American macroregion is considered. It is concluded that in the international arena, Latin American states are increasingly acting as an ideologically integrated entity due to the factor of identity and the formation of a common Latin American consciousness.

THE FIRST EUROPEAN WAR OF THE THIRD MILLENNIUM: PROLOGUE OR EPILOGUE? (political notes on the Russian-Ukrainian war of 2014-2022)
Authors: Smolianiuk Volodymyr
Published: December 2022

The article examines the course and consequences of the first (and so far only) European war of the new century - Russian-Ukrainian in the time interval of 2014-2022. The main definitions of this war, which does not have a single meaningful interpretation on the part of the scientific, information-analytical and mass media community, are given. The main international and institutional consequences of the Russian-Ukrainian war are detailed. The conclusion is formulated that security structures of the XX century are inefficient regulators of armed and force interstate relations of the 21st century. Some geoeconomic and geopolitical consequences of Russian aggression against Ukraine are revealed. The new accents of NATO development, new dimensions of the geopolitical behavior of China and Turkey, a new vision on the security prospects of humanity on the part of English-speaking countries, primarily Great Britain and the United States, are detailed. The uncertainty of the future of the Russian Federation, which is at a crossroads of sorts, is emphasized. It is emphasized that the consequences of the Russian-Ukrainian war, in view of their scale and global security and political resonance, will have increased importance for the affirmation of a new system of international relations, the formation of which will take place with the participation of Ukraine. In general, it is proven that the world has irreversibly entered a new phase (epoch) of development, which denies the logic, rationality, experience, and legal basis of past historical periods.
CORONAVIRUS PANDEMIC AS A FACTOR IN THE STRENGTHENING OF NEO-AUTHORITARIANISM
Authors: Sautonkov Vitalii
Published: December 2022

It is argued that the Covid-19 pandemic has affected the political sphere, in particular the transformation of political regimes. Situational factors such as the Covid-19 pandemic are proven to exacerbate the authoritarian characteristics of the political regime, especially in states with an unstable democratic tradition. The key manifestations of the strengthening of neo-authoritarianism, which became apparent during the pandemic, are identified: imbalance between the branches of government; postponement of regular elections; introduction of new methods of mass surveillance; narrowing of guaranteed human and citizen rights and freedoms; increased censorship and pressure on the media; pressure on the opposition and critical segment of civil society, etc. It is substantiated that the coronavirus pandemic has had a destructive effect on the quality of democracy in states with all types of political regimes, especially in states with flawed democracies, hybrid and authoritarian regimes. The hypothesis is confirmed that autocratic state leaders, having experienced the benefits of their expanded competence during the pandemic, seek to retain their additional powers.

Published: December 2022

Celem artykułu jest przybliżenie zjawiska subkultury uwodzicieli – pickup artists (PUA), których działalność rozpoczęła się w Stanach Zjednoczonych i głównie dzięki Internetowi pojawiła się na całym świecie, także w Polsce. Obecność subkultury uwodzicieli jest wynikiem przemian, które zaszły w czasach ponowoczesności, i wpisuje się w koncepcję społeczeństwa ryzyka Ulricha Becka. W artykule scharakteryzowano główne cechy społeczności PUA, która posiada własny sposób opisu (języka) oraz świat wartości, co pozwala ją ujmować jako rodzaj subkultury, a także współczesnego ruchu maskulinistycznego wychodzącego naprzeciw pewnym oczekiwaniom mężczyzn w sferze budowania intymnych relacji z kobietami. Przedstawiona została również historia rozwoju zjawiska pickup artists oraz kontrowersje związane z działalnością społeczności uwodzicieli. Sam wzór procesu uwodzenia, zaczerpnięty z jednego z podręczników uwodzenia, opisano przy użyciu koncepcji dramaturgicznej interakcjonisty Ervinga Goffmana, która przedstawia uwodziciela jako aktora, a sam proces uwodzenia określa występem teatralnym.
Malfadados livros A confiscada biblioteca de D. Vicente Nogueira (1633)
Authors: Serafim João Carlos
Published: December 2022

Dom Vicente Nogueira, then priest of Lisbon Cathedral, was accused, in 1633, of the crimes of paedophilia and sodomy. Under these circumstances, his private library was confiscated and, in 1634, taken to the Royal Alcázar of Madrid. In the 19th century, a copy of the catalogue of this confiscated library was found in the National Library of France. In this study, we speak about this collection which, by the quantity and selectivity of books, reveals itself to be, at that time, truly monumental.
Mulheres e Santidade fingida no Portugal Moderno as Mazedas do Beatério do Padre Couceiro
Authors: Rangel Leonardo Coutinho de Carvalho
Published: December 2022

The inquisitors, when investigating crimes of simulation of sanctity, leaned toward the assumption that women were naturally shallow and seekers of good opinion. Due to the general belief in this alleged susceptibility of them, the inquisitors had special attention in order to determine if those women were driven by the desire of fame, which could be obtained through the simulation of divine favors. Although prestige was an important motivator, it was not the only one. Cases like Maria Mazeda’s and Guiomar Mazeda’s show us the complexity of the phenomenon of sanctity and allow us to infer that simulation could be more than a pursuit of notoriety, even a survival strategy.

Based on a process of the Inquisition of Lisbon until now unknown to historiography, new elements are revealed about Fr. Manuel da Costa, the Jesuit to whom the authorship of the 17th-century work Arte de Furtar is attributed. Following an «auto da fé» in 1654 in which a wealthy New Christian merchant, Fr. Manuel da Costa came into conflict with the Inquisition for issuing certificates attesting to the deceased’s Christian faith. The inquiry subsequently instituted by the inquisitors provides new clues for understanding Manuel da Costa’s worth in the court of D. João IV and makes it possible to question the Jesuit’s position on the Inquisition and the confiscation of property from heretics in comparison with the praise of the Saint Office contained in the Arte de Furtar.

Approximately thirty percent of the dogs with idiopathic epilepsy develop multidrug resistance. Therefore, the search for new non-drug treatment alternatives is important. There is a growing interest in the gut-brain axis and its role in the pathogenesis of epilepsy. The gut microbiota can influence brain function by different neural, endocrine, immune and metabolic pathways, but this process is not yet fully understood. In this study, five client-owned dogs with drug-resistant, idiopathic epilepsy received amoxicillin-clavulanic acid as add-on orally (mean duration 32 days (range 21-64 days)). The mean isolated epileptic seizure frequency of these five dogs was 3.3/ week (range 2.5-6.5) with a mean cluster seizure frequency of 0.9/week (range 0.4-1.5). During the amoxicillin-clavulanic acid treatment, three dogs showed complete seizure freedom, one dog showed an 80% decrease of both isolated epileptic seizure and cluster seizure frequency, and one dog showed an increase in isolated epileptic seizure and cluster seizure frequency of 54% and 38%, respectively. In the two-month follow-up period after cessation of the antibiotic administration, the mean isolated epileptic seizure and cluster seizure frequency increased again to 1.5 seizures/week (range 0.9-2.8) and 0.4 clusters/week (range 0.4-0.6), respectively. The preliminary results in this study highlight the need for future research into the role of the canine gut-brain axis in idiopathic epilepsy.

Repeatability, Reproducibility, and Concurrent Validity of a Stethoscope and Health App System for the Quantification of Breath Rate in Healthy Adults: Repeatability and Validity Study
Authors: Becerro de Bengoa Vallejo Ricardo , Losa Iglesias Marta Elena , Robles Sanchez Oscar David
Published: December 2022

Background

Apps for smartphones that can measure the breathing rate easily can be downloaded.

Objective

The aim of this study was to demonstrate agreement in measuring breath rates between the stethoscope and Breath Counter health app.

Methods

We performed a repeatability study with 56 healthy volunteers. The patient’s demographic data and breathing rates per minute were collected. Breathing rates were measured via two methods: (1) using a stethoscope placed in the upper area of the right lung and (2) a Breath Counter app developed by Vadion on a Samsung Fold smartphone.

Results

This study demonstrated high repeatability and validity with respect to the breathing rate parameter of healthy adults using the aforementioned 2 systems. Intrasession repeatability measure using the intraclass correlation coefficient was >0.962, indicating excellent repeatability. Moreover, the intraclass correlation coefficient between methods was 0.793, indicating good repeatability, and coefficients of variation of method errors values were 1.83% with very low values in terms of other repeatability parameters. We found significant correlation coefficients and no systematic differences between the app and stethoscope methods.

Conclusions

The app method may be attractive to individuals who require repeatability in a recreational setting.
