Overview of the artificial intelligence roadmap: Future applications in brain research
Authors: Bohra Deepika , Rana Rashmi , Ganguly Nirmal Kumar
Published: August 2023

The use of artificial intelligence (AI) is an emerging technique in the early identification and categorisation of brain tumour. The currently used method, i.e., magnetic resonance image for the detection of tumour is a time–consuming and complex technique. In the newly developing technique using the AI, the magnetic resonance image scans are used as input data, whereas the currently used method reads the magnetic resonance image manually. The purpose of this article is that the use of novel technique seems very promising in the early detection of brain tumour with high sensitivity and specificity. In this article, two disciplines of AI – machine learning and deep learning are extensively discussed. Through the utilisation of AI techniques, the fields of medicine and health care have experienced remarkable advancements, still there is a shortage of knowledge on artificial–based methods for early tumour diagnosis and classification. In addition, the article discusses the future application of AI techniques in clinical studies.
A Study of Clinical Profile and Stressors in Patients Presenting with Dissociative Disorder to a Tertiary Care Teaching Hospital
Authors: Bhat Madhavi , Kakunje Anil , Mithur Rajesh
Published: August 2023

Background:

Dissociative disorder is a condition characterized by disruption of the normal continuity and integration of consciousness, memory, identity, motor functioning, and behavior.

Aims:

The aim of the study was to study the various psychosocial factors that influence the dissociative episodes in patients. We also looked at the clinical profile and the relation between the type and levels of dissociation with levels of stress in the study sample.

Materials and Methods:

This descriptive, cross-sectional study with serial sampling had 50 participants who were diagnosed with dissociation as per the International Classification of Diseases-10 criteria. The study was conducted after obtaining clearance from the institutional ethics committee. Dissociative experience of the patients was measured using Severity of Dissociative Symptoms-Adult (Brief Dissociative Experiences Scale [DES-B]-Modified) and stress levels were measured using Presumptive Stressful Life Events Scale.

Results:

The study showed that dissociation was more common among females from urban population, who were single and among students. Dissociative convulsions were found to be the most common type of dissociation in our culture. DES-B showed moderate-to-severe types of dissociative experience in the sample. In 46% of the participants, family conflicts acted as the most common stressor precipitating episodes. There was a psychodynamic connection/explanation between the perceived stress and the presenting complaint.

Conclusion:

This study highlights the common dissociations, stressors, and the difference seen among males and females. There is a need to understand the stressors of a patient presenting with dissociation for better psychological management.

Authors: Kailash Shabeeba Z. , Kaur Arshdeep , Sureshkumar Kailash , Rajalakshmi Aarya Krishnan
Published: August 2023

Introduction:

Depression is a chronic debilitating illness that causes functional impairment significantly affecting physical, mental, and social well-being of the individual, further impacting lives of their relatives. Majority of studies done in the past were on caregivers of patients suffering from schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or chronic physical illnesses.

Methods:

We assessed caregiver burden in the caregivers of depressive disorder patients by using Montgomery Borgatta Caregiving Burden Scale.

Results:

The study population had significantly higher proportion of subjective stress burden (70%) whereas subjective demand burden and objective burden were seen in 22.5% and 37.5% of caregivers respectively. Younger age, female, spouses, and nuclear family type were significantly associated with the presence of caregiver burden.

Conclusion:

High prevalence of caregiver burden was observed in caregivers of depressive disorder patients, which could predispose caregivers to develop psychiatric comorbidities. Thus, early interventions and teaching them better coping strategies could help in the reduction of caregiver distress.
“The Big Three” of geriatrics: A review of perioperative cognitive impairment, frailty and malnutrition
Authors: Amirfarzan Houman , Azocar Ruben J. , Shapeton Alexander D.
Published: August 2023

Cognitive impairment, frailty, and malnutrition are three of the most impactful pathologies facing an aging population, having dramatic effects on morbidity and mortality across nearly all facets of medical care and intervention. By 2050, the World Health Organization estimates that the population of individuals over the age of sixty worldwide will nearly double, and the public health toll of these demographic changes cannot be understated. With these changing demographics comes a need for a sharpened focus on the care and management of this vulnerable population. The average patient presenting for surgery is getting older, and this necessitates that clinicians understand the implications of these pathologies for both their immediate medical care needs and for appropriate procedural selection and prognostication of surgical outcomes. We believe it is incumbent on clinicians to consider the frailty, nutritional status, and cognitive function of each individual patient when offering a surgical intervention, as well as consider interventions that may delay the progression of these pathologies. Unfortunately, despite excellent evidence supporting things like routine pre-operative frailty screening and nutritional optimization, many interventions that would specifically benefit this population still have not been integrated into routine practice. In this review, we will synthesize the existing literature on these topics to provide a pragmatic approach and understanding for anesthesiologists and intensivists faced with this complex population.
Preoperative optimization: Physical and cognitive pre-habilitation and management of chronic medication
Authors: Trottier Miguel , Carli Francesco
Published: August 2023

Surgery is a significant stressor for older patient. Most are at higher risk of complications due to frailty and comorbidities. This article will review the impact of surgery on the older patient, perioperative risk assessment and stratification, prehabilitation, and specific screenings and interventions. Electronic searches of PubMed were conducted to identify relevant literature using the following search terms: prehabilitation, sarcopenia, osteosarcopenia, frailty, perioperative evaluation, and polypharmacy. Using the frailty phenotype allows for the early identification of geriatric syndromes and potential targets for interventions. However, it does not inform on potential cognitive impairment, which must be assessed separately. Prehabilitation, especially using multimodal interventions, aims to increase functional capacity during the preoperative period in anticipation of the upcoming stress of surgery and the metabolic cost of recovery. It comprises aerobic and resistance training, dietary interventions, psychological interventions, and cessation of adverse health behaviors. Addressing polypharmacy is also important during the perioperative period. Several frailty assessment tools exist, and special tests only take minutes to perform such as the gait speed and chair stand test. Early identification by surgeons leads to early referral to prehabilitation, which needs about four to six weeks to improve function. The decision to enroll patients in a prehabilitation program is based on the understanding of the needs to maintain a structured and personalized intervention taking into consideration the patient’s health status, the type of surgery, and the state of the disease. Perioperative evaluation and prehabilitation for older adults are evolving fields, which are generating clinical and scientific interest. This article will review relevant topics to help clinicians adapt usual perioperative care to older patients’ particular needs.
Two Lempel - Ziv goodness-of-fit tests for nonequiprobable random binary sequences
Authors: Kruglov Vasilii Igorevich
Published: August 2023

Пусть гипотеза $H_p$ состоит в том, что элементы последовательности $X_1,\ldots,X_n$ независимы и имеют одинаковое распределение: $\mathbf{P}\{X_i=1\}=p$, $\mathbf{P}\{X_i=0\}=1-p$, где $p\in(0,1)$. Ранее были предложены два критерия согласия для гипотезы $H_{0.5}$, основанные на возможности точного вычисления распределений статистик Лемпеля - Зива. В данной статье эти критерии обобщаются на случай произвольных $p\in(0,1)$. Для каждого критерия последовательность длины $n=mrT$ делится на блоки длины $T$, для которых строятся статистики Лемпеля - Зива $W_1(T),\ldots, W_{mr}(T)$. Первый критерий при $r=2$ основан на статистике $\tilde W(2mT)=(W_1+\ldots+W_m)-(W_{m+1}+\ldots+W_{2m})$, распределение которой симметрично относительно нуля. Статистикой второго критерия является величина $\tilde \chi^2(mrT)=\max_{1\le k\le m} \chi_{(k)}^2(T)$, где $\chi_{(1)}^2(T),\ldots,\chi_{(m)}^2(T)$ - значения статистик хи-квадрат, построенных по наборам $(W_{1,1}(T),\ldots, W_{1,r}(T)),\ldots,(W_{m,1}(T), W_{m,2}(T), \ldots, W_{m,r}(T))$ соответственно. Для статистик обоих критериев найдены предельные распределения, для статистики первого критерия приведена оценка скорости сходимости к предельному нормальному распределению.
Nonlinear Observer for Estimating Gravity Vector and Flight Path
Angles of a High-Performance Aircraft
Authors: Chandrasekaran Kamali , Jain Shikha
Published: August 2023

This paper proposes a nonlinear observer for the estimation of gravity vector and
angles with respect to velocity vector (flight path angle, bank angle) of a
high-performance aircraft. The technique is computationally simpler than the
extended Kalman filter (EKF) and hence is suitable for onboard implementations
when the digital flight control computer (DFCC) has computational burdens.
Flight test data of a highly maneuvering flight such as wind-up turns and full
rolls have been used to validate the technique.
Recyclability and Embodied Energy of Advanced Polymer Matrix
Composites
Authors: Muelaner Jody Emlyn
Published: August 2023

Recycling of advanced composites made from carbon fibers in epoxy resins is
essential for two primary reasons. First, the energy necessary to produce carbon
fibers is very high and therefore reusing these fibers could greatly reduce the
lifecycle energy of components which use them. Second, if the material is
allowed to break down in the environment, it will contribute to the growing
presence of microplastics and other synthetic pollutants.

Recyclability and Embodied Energy of Advanced Polymer Matrix
Composites discusses current recycling and disposal disposal
methods—which typically do not aim for full circularity, but rather successive
downcycling—and addresses the major challenge of aligning fibers into
unidirectional tows of real value in high-performance composites.

How Nature Works: Rethinking Labor on a Troubled Planet, ur. Sarah Besky in Alex Blanchette
Authors: Trebežnik Jernej
Published: August 2023

Antropologi, ki želimo rahljati kapitalistični koncept dela, se običajno opremo na geografsko in zgodovinsko raznolikost ljudstev po svetu. Kot nakaže zbornik How Nature Works: Rethinking Labor on a Troubled Planet (University of New Mexico Press, 2019, Sarah Besky in Alex Blanchette, ur.), pa je morda smiselno v času ekološke krize in razmaha posthumanistične teorije stopiti še korak dlje. Avtorji namreč razpirajo vrsto načinov, na katere se človeško delo prepleta z delom drugih živih bitij in na katere so torej živali, bakterije ali pa glive vsaj posredno vključene v kapitalistični sistem proizvodnje. Na ta način zbornik spretno nagovarja trenutek »ekonomske in ekološke prekarnosti«, saj se po eni strani vklaplja v kontekst aktualnih razmislekov o večvrstni družbi in podnebni krizi, po drugi pa ponuja nekatere uporabne sveže iztočnice antropološkemu preučevanju dela.

Cenário evolutivo da educação ambiental para o desenvolvimento sustentável no mundo: etapas e promotores
Authors: Matos Alda , Cabo Paula , Fernandes António , Ribeiro Isabel
Published: August 2023

Desde a publicação do livro Silent Spring, 1962, de Rachel Carson, do livro The Limits to Growth, 1972, do Clube de Roma e do impacto provocado pelo Relatório Brundtland, Our Common Future, 1987, pela World Commission on Environment and Development, que os organismos internacionais se envolvem em parcerias e assinam declarações de compromisso com a Educação Ambiental para o Desenvolvimento Sustentável – EADS. O objetivo do presente artigo é realizar uma narrativa sobre os eventos dedicados à EADS, com início na Conferência de Estocolmo até à Conferência do Rio+20. O estudo teve como base metodológica uma revisão crítica da literatura. Concluiu-se que a sociedade tomou maior consciência sobre os problemas ambientais a partir de 1970. Despontaram as primeiras respostas político-administrativas na Conferência de Estocolmo e, mais tarde, publicou-se a Informação Brundtland pela equipa interdisciplinar de experts em meio ambiente. Daqui resultaram o Tratado de Bem-estar (garantia dos direitos mínimos aos cidadãos pelo Estado) e o conceito de Desenvolvimento Sustentável. Surgiu assim a solidariedade social para com o futuro da humanidade, que implicou o princípio de “não hipotecar os recursos das gerações futuras”. Na Conferência do Rio a EADS foi plenamente aceite e divulgada pelo mundo. Todavia, com a entrada do novo milénio, a atenção dada à EADS regrediu significativamente.
Azeite biológico: da produção ao consumo
Authors: Cabo Paula , Matos Alda , Fernandes António , Ribeiro Maria
Published: August 2023

A agricultura em Modo de Produção Biológico – MPB constitui uma atividade com elevado potencial, assumindo-se cada vez mais como uma oportunidade para o setor agrícola. O olival é uma das culturas com maior implantação no MPB, contudo, apesar da sua importância histórica, na última década, a área decresceu, o mercado nacional é ainda reduzido e a quebra verificada nos preços afeta a atratividade do setor. Este trabalho visa contribuir para o desenvolvimento da olivicultura em MPB em Portugal. Para tal, analisa a produção e consumo de azeite biológico, com base em dados estatísticos e informação primária, obtida através de um questionário aplicado a uma amostra não-probabilística de potenciais consumidores residentes na cidade de Bragança. A agricultura em MPB representa, atualmente, cerca de 6% da Superfície Agrícola Útil – SAU, sendo que, em 2014, a olivicultura em MPB ocupava 19 000 hectares, distribuídos por 1 400 produtores. O Alentejo é a região onde se encontra a maior área de olival biológico (44% da área e 25% dos agricultores) e Trás-os-Montes é a região com o maior número de operadores (32% da área e 39% dos agricultores). Na última década, apesar do crescimento de cerca de 84% do número de operadores, a área total dedicada ao olival em MPB decresceu cerca de 16%. A análise do consumo salienta que existe, ainda, grande potencial de crescimento para este tipo de produtos. Os resultados revelam que a maioria dos inquiridos não é consumidora de azeite biológico, embora grande parte pretenda vir a sê-lo. Adicionalmente, a esmagadora maioria (84,2%) considera que a procura deste produto aumentaria se o preço fosse menor. O estudo do comportamento do consumidor revela ainda que o fator saúde prepondera sobre o fator ecológico. Assim, na comunicação com o consumidor, os agentes da fileira deverão apostar nos benefícios para a saúde do consumo deste produto e no desenvolvimento de uma maior consciência ecológica dos consumidores.
Prever a evolução dos mercados de ações em tempo de crise: o caso da euronext Lisboa
Authors: Lobão Júlio , Rocha Daniela
Published: August 2023

Neste artigo estudamos a utilidade da análise fundamental para prever a evolução do preço das ações cotadas na Euronext Lisbon no contexto da crise financeira global pós-2007. Na elaboração das estratégias de investimento foi considerado um conjunto alargado de 49 indicadores financeiros, aplicados a 29 ações. Contrariamente à generalidade dos estudos sobre o mesmo tema, as estratégias de investimento fundamentais analisadas não se mostraram lucrativas. Os resultados obtidos sugerem que o aumento da incerteza provocado por eventos como crises financeiras diminui a utilidade das estratégias baseadas no recurso a indicadores financeiros.

Processo de internacionalização de empresas portuguesas – estudo de caso
Authors: Almeida Joana , Pereira Raquel
Published: August 2023

A temática da internacionalização constitui uma área de pesquisa que se mantém muito atual, na medida em que a internacionalização se assume como estratégia chave para a competitividade das empresas e das economias. No contexto português, a internacionalização e diversificação de mercados parece assumir um papel fundamental para a sustentabilidade dos negócios. Sendo definido como um processo complexo, envolvendo riscos elevados, o objetivo deste trabalho será estudar o Processo de Internacionalização (PI) de empresas portuguesas. Seguindo uma metodologia qualitativa, assente no estudo de caso, pretende-se identificar estratégias, dificuldades e captar a complexidade e especificidade desses processos. Dado que, ao analisar o PI de uma empresa, é importante confrontar modelos teóricos com a prática empresarial, procuraremos confrontar e verificar a validade das teorias e literatura relevantes com os casos em análise. Os resultados indicam que não é possível enquadrar os casos em estudo num único modelo teórico e que o Modelo não Sequencial parece ser o mais indicado para caraterizar a estratégia das empresas em causa.

Published: August 2023

Consciously or not, a conflict can occur anywhere and in any sudden situation, an indication that may indicate that when a communication and information system does not meet a goal, it can result in a misunderstanding between two or more parties. Conflict is a conflict between winning or losing both between individuals and within a group. Conflict can also result in triggering a dispute between fellow members of the student council. However, besides the size of the problem of the conflict itself, conflict can also be resolved in many ways. For example, by choosing a middle way, and communicating well, and being calm between one another. The purpose of the research contains conflict in the behavior of an organization and the model of the way of resolution used by the student council members at SMA Negri 4 Jember in dealing with conflict, along with performance and productivity organization after the conflict at SMA Negeri 4 Jember City. This research is qualitative by using a naturalistic approach. Data collected through an observation, in-depth interviews and documentation studies. The data source consisted of the student council president and several student council members who knew the conditions of the conflict that occurred. The results of the research produced a result, that mediating conflicts, explaining the importance of a teamwork between osis members, emphasizing shared interests, conducting team building sessions, etc. are not easy enough to resolve a conflict that occurs. Therefore, transformational leadership is needed through an emotional intelligence approach, prioritizing a work ethic. In order for a similar conflict that will not occur again, the osis members must have a strong commitment, provide an opportunity, and encourage all elements of the osis members at SMA Negeri 4 Jember to work together on the basis of a noble value system, so that they are willing and without coercion, optimally participate in achieving ideal goals within the organization.
