Authors: Lee-Geiller Seulki
Published: January 2025

Trust in government is crucial for effective governance in modern democratic societies, given its role in establishing government legitimacy. However, public trust has significantly declined, which has prompted questions about the potential of e-government to restore it. Despite widespread adoption of e-government, research on its impact on public trust has produced mixed findings. Addressing this gap, this study investigates the complex relationship between e-government and public trust, emphasizing the moderating role of digital literacy. Analyzing a sample of approximately 1,900 New Jersey residents, we reveal a positive association between favorable evaluations of e-government effectiveness and trust in the New Jersey government, with digital literacy playing a positive moderating role. This study contributes to the existing literature by addressing the intricate relationship between e-government, citizen perceptions of government performance, and trust in government, while providing valuable policy insights on enhancing e-government services and citizens’ digital literacy levels to cultivate trust.

Status of Injury Induced Hand Dominance Transfer in Patients with Global Brachial Plexopathy - A Comparison with Age Matched Normal
Authors: Thosar Jyotsna , Admane Nupur , Iyer Saraswati
Published: January 2025

Background: Traumatic brachial plexus injury is a catastropic injury leading to functional impairment of upper limb. Injury to the dominant side is more devastating because the skills endowed to the dominant hand must be transferred to the non-dominant hand which is known as injury induced hand dominance transfer (I-IHDT). Hand grip strength, manual dexterity and handwriting skills form integral part of activities of daily living which must be trained for.
Methodology: Hand grip strength, manual dexterity and quality of writing of the unaffected side of 30 patients with global brachial plexopathy (Group A) was compared with the non-dominant side of 30 age matched healthy adults (Group B).
Results: Group A showed significantly higher values in the mean for hand grip strength. (Group A -13.47; Group B – 12.03; p- 0.0254).
Group A showed significantly lower values in the mean for manual dexterity. (Group A -57.37, Group B -63.05; p-0.0070).
Group A showed no significant change for quality of handwriting using Handwriting Eligibility Scale. (Group A –16.00, Group B – 16.07; p - 0.7706).
Group A showed significantly lower no. of words written in 6 minutes compared to group B (Group A - 28.20, Group B - 46.40, P - <0.0001)
Conclusion: The present study concludes that the hand grip strength of the uninjured, non-dominant hand of brachial plexus injury patients was higher than grip strength of non-dominant hand of age matched healthy normals whereas the dexterity and handwriting scores were lower when compared to non-dominant side of age matched normals.

The right to be heard: towards a general principle of administrative law
Authors: Kuryndin P. A.
Published: January 2025

The subject of the article is related to the analysis of Russian legislation formation of opportunities for an individual to be heard, reflected in judicial practice.

Methods. This analysis is based on the right to be heard as a general principle of administrative law, taken from foreign legal orders through the comparative legal method. In addition, the article used formal-dogmatic, historical methods. Initially, the guarantee in question is of a judicial nature, that is, it appeared and was further clarified in judicial practice. The lead in substantiating the right to be heard belongs to the Anglo-American legal family, since there has always been a special emphasis on procedural aspects. Along with this, French administrative law was not an exception, where the opportunity to be heard was also introduced by the State Council, but enshrined much later in the Code on regulating relations between the population and the administration. It should also be noted that the presence of a legislative act does not prevent the development of judicial doctrines.

The purpose of this observation is to study the possible role of Russian judicial practice in the development of the right to be heard as a general principle of administrative law. To do this, it is necessary to determine the historical background for the emergence of this right, the development features in various legal traditions, to identify the features of Russian judicial practice, correlating them with foreign doctrines and associated concepts (primarily, with the right of participation).

Main results. In Russian law, the right to be heard is provided by some federal laws. However, this principle has not yet been reflected in any act of higher judicial authorities, which could affect the level of protection by consolidated uniform approaches. The court decisions of the cassation instances presented in the study, on the contrary, show he discrepancies and shortcomings of legal regulation in disputes with citizens and in economic affairs. In the latter case, the legislation is more detailed; the courts apply it more readily, siding with private individuals. Whereas, within the framework of a personal reception of citizens, restoring rights is much longer and more difficult, because the administrative bodies themselves create various obstacles.

Conclusion. These problems can be overcome through the perception of comparative legal approaches in understanding the right to be heard as a general principle of administrative law. Indeed, a private person should be able to present his point of view and evidence, especially when it comes to interference with his freedom.
Education legislation in the context of socio-economic development and national security strategies
Authors: Grechkina O. V. , Dushakova L. A. , Shmaliy O. V.
Published: January 2025

The subject of the study is the assessment of certain aspects of education legislation in the context of socio-economic development and national security strategies. Education is one of the most powerful long-term tools for socio-economic development and national security. This is due to the socio-cultural and information environment of involving government decision makers in a particular educational model. This situation calls for the formation of a regulatory framework in the field of education, which is combined with government policies. The purpose of the study is to substantiate the directions for improving the legislation on education from the point of view of establishing the formal and legal relationship of its individual provisions with state policies.Research methods: the authors use theoretical methods of formal and dialectical logic, empirical methods of comparison, description, interpretation as well as formal legal method. Results and conclusions. Legislation in the field of education does not form a clear formal and legal relationship with government policies. In this regard, education as an object of public administration and regulation needs conceptualization and system-forming strategic planning. These processes should include issues of education security as a socially significant good, socially significant service, and educational infrastructure. The system of principles of state policy and legal regulation in the field of education should be brought into line with the paradigms of strategic planning in the field of national security and socio-economic development. It is proposed to abandon the concept of "quality of education" in favor of the concept of "quality of educational activity" as more appropriate to the meaning and content of strategic planning acts. This will eliminate the need to substantiate the quality of education as a socially significant good and constitutional value, since in this case we are talking about the philosophy and axiology of education as a social phenomenon, and not about its quantitative and qualitative characteristics that can be measured. This approach will also make it possible to specify the goals and content of verification and evaluation activities in the field of education. It is advisable to differentiate the meanings of education. Education as a benefit should be positioned through the preamble to Federal Law No. 273- FZ dated December 29, 2012 "On Education in the Russian Federation", ensuring recognition of its social value and guarantee. It is necessary to substantiate the connection between education and enlightenment. The concept of enlightenment is immanent in education. At the same time, there remains the possibility of enlightenment activities outside the framework of educational programs, but not in opposition to education as a combination of training and upbringing.

Published: January 2025

Background: Palliative care is vital for advanced cancer patients nearing end-of-life. Accurately predicting imminence of death is key for effective care planning. Hence, complementing clinical predictions with prognostic tools, such as Palliative Performance Scale (PPS) and Modified Early Warning Score (MEWS), produces more accurate predictions of life expectancy. This study evaluated the PPS and MEWS for predicting imminence of death in a Saudi Arabian palliative care setting, aiming to enhance hospital policies and patient care. Methods: A retrospective cohort study at Princess Noura Oncology Center in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, analyzed adult patients with advanced cancer who received palliative care between January 1, 2019, and December 31, 2021. Data from the institutional database were analyzed using SPSS version 26 to evaluate the prognostic efficacy of the MEWS and the PPS in predicting imminent death. Results: Among the 406 patients with advanced cancer, 73.6% had stable physiological parameters (MEWS < 4), and 95.8% had a PPS of 40 or lower, indicating poor functional status. The PPS was a strong predictor of imminent death, with scores of 40 or lower significantly linked to a higher risk (p < 0.05), while scores above 40 were associated with a significantly reduced risk (p < 0.05). The MEWS, however, did not show a statistically significant correlation with imminent death (p > 0.05). Conclusion: While MEWS lacked predictive value for imminent death, PPS effectively identified high-risk patients. This study underscores the importance of comprehensive tools like PPS in palliative care to enhance clinical policies and patient care.

Published: January 2025

Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming clinical decision-making by enhancing diagnostic accuracy, treatment planning, and patient management. However, its integration into healthcare raises ethical challenges, particularly regarding informed consent, transparency, accountability, and patient privacy. Traditional consent models face limitations as AI systems often operate as "black boxes," making their processes difficult to understand. This complexity necessitates the development of explainable AI (XAI) frameworks and dynamic consent models that ensure patients comprehend how their data is used and how decisions are made. Transparency in algorithmic design and decision-making processes is critical for building trust among patients and clinicians. AI algorithms must also be accountable for their recommendations, with clear guidelines to address potential errors, biases, and adverse outcomes. Collaborative efforts between developers, healthcare providers, and regulators are essential to establish ethical and legal standards for the responsible use of AI in clinical settings. Ensuring data security and patient privacy is another critical consideration, as AI systems rely on large datasets, often containing sensitive health information. Techniques like encryption, anonymization, and federated learning offer promising solutions to safeguard data while maintaining its utility for AI training and implementation. Additionally, the risk of algorithmic bias underscores the need for diverse datasets and rigorous validation of AI tools to prevent healthcare disparities. Ethical governance must address the balance between advancing medical innovation and protecting individual rights. The adoption of privacypreserving technologies, robust security measures, and culturally sensitive consent practices can further enhance ethical compliance. By prioritizing these aspects, AI has the potential to improve healthcare delivery while upholding patient autonomy and trust. Addressing these challenges through interdisciplinary collaboration ensures that AI integration aligns with ethical principles and supports equitable, effective, and transparent healthcare systems.

Published: January 2025

Kinesio Taping (KT) has emerged as a prominent therapeutic technique in sports medicine, recognized for its ability to alleviate pain, reduce edema, and support functional recovery in athletes. By mimicking the elasticity of human skin, KT provides dynamic support while allowing full range of motion, making it particularly advantageous for sports-related injuries. Studies indicate that KT promotes lymphatic drainage and reduces localized swelling by lifting the skin and improving interstitial space. This mechanism aids in the removal of metabolic waste and excess fluids, accelerating the healing process. Clinical applications of KT span a wide range of injuries, including chronic ankle instability, anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries, and shoulder dislocations. Research highlights its effectiveness in enhancing proprioceptive feedback, stabilizing joints, and reducing strain on affected muscles. Comparisons with other interventions, such as rigid taping and dry needling, reveal KT's superior adaptability and comfort for athletes engaged in dynamic activities. Moreover, KT has been shown to complement traditional rehabilitation protocols, offering psychological benefits by boosting confidence and encouraging active participation in recovery. Despite its widespread use, the efficacy of KT can vary based on factors such as application techniques, injury type, and individual patient characteristics. Ongoing research aims to refine protocols and better understand its mechanisms of action. Overall, KT has become an integral tool in sports injury management, offering a non-invasive and effective solution for pain and edema management while supporting functional recovery.

Fluorescein and its various derivatives show remarkable biological and bio-analytical applications because of its solubility, high degree of inertness and high fluorescent activity. To broaden the spectrum of its applications, we synthesized novel fluorescein-based hydrazides (FHJ-0.2 - FHJ-0.6) using different substituted aryl hydrazine. The newly designed and synthesized products have been monitored by thin layer chromatography and characterized by 1HNMR, IR and MS data. To find the application of these hydrazides, the biological screening is considered and screened by antimicrobial and hemolytic activity studies. Time-kill assay revealed that none of these hydrazides are appreciable antimicrobial agent but all of these show promising hemolytic results. Results are compared with Triton X-100 (positive control) with 89.54% hemolytic activity. Compared to fluorescein (FHJ-0.1) activity (3.07%), FHJ-0.3(3.54%), FHJ-0.2 (4.37%), FHJ-0.2 (4.37%) and FHJ-0.6 (5.87%), presented better anti- hemolytic activity showing that changing the substituent and position affects the activity remarkably. These fluoresecin based hydrazides may prove to be useful for the treatment of hemolytic disorders

Tăng áp lực động mạch phổi là một rối loạn sinh lý bệnh có liên quan đến nhiều bệnh cảnh lâm sàng và có thể liên quan đến nhiều bệnh tim mạch và hô hấp. Nghiên cứu sổ bộ đầu tiên về tăng áp lực động mạch phổi NIH tại Hoa Kỳ năm 1981 công bố tỷ lệ tử vong của bệnh sau 1 năm và 5 năm lần lượt là 32% và 66%. Nghiên cứu của chúng tôi được thực hiện nhằm đánh giá tỷ lệ tử vong và tìm hiểu một số yếu tố có giá trị tiên lượng tử vong ở bệnh nhân TALĐMP nhóm I điều trị nội trú tại một trung tâm tim mạch. Kết quả cho thấy tỷ lệ tử vong sau 1 năm, 5 năm lần lượt là 4,2% và 11,2%. Một số yếu tố như phân độ cơ năng III, IV tại thời điểm nhập viện, giá trị nồng độ NT – proBNP ≥ 1100 pg/ml được chứng minh có vai trò dự báo sống còn ở bệnh nhân tăng áp lực động mạch phổi. Kết luận: Tỷ lệ tử vong ở bệnh nhân tăng áp lực động mạch phổi nhóm I điều trị nội trú vẫn còn cao. Các công cụ đánh giá tiên lượng sống còn có nhiều ý nghĩa trong thực tiễn theo dõi điều trị cho đối tượng bệnh nhân này.
Bệnh phổi mô bào X hiếm gặp (Pulmonary Langerhans’ Cell Histiocytosis): Nhân 3 trường hợp khám và điều trị tại Bệnh viện Phổi Trung ương

Published: January 2025

Bệnh mô bào Langerhans ở phổi là bệnh hiếm gặp, tỉ lệ mắc bệnh ở trẻ dưới 15 tuổi là 0,7 - 4,1/1 triệu trẻ, ở người lớn là 1 - 2/1 triệu người. Bệnh rất khó chẩn đoán do triệu chứng không đặc hiệu và nếu không được chẩn đoán và điều trị kịp thời, bệnh có thể gây ra các biến chứng nặng nề ảnh hưởng đến tính mạng như tăng áp động mạch phổi nặng, tràn khí màng phổi tái diễn nhiều lần và suy hô hấp nặng dẫn đến tử vong. Chúng tôi báo cáo 3 trường hợp bệnh phổi mô bào Langerhans khám và điều trị tại Bệnh viện Phổi Trung ương, được quản lý và theo dõi từ 3 đến 6 tháng. Bệnh mô bào Langerhans có thể biểu hiện ở nhiều cơ quan khác nhau như da, phổi, tuyến nội tiết, gan, lách, hạch bạch huyết và tủy xương. Việc chẩn đoán chủ yếu dựa vào cắt lớp vi tính độ phân giải cao với các hình ảnh là các kén khí đặc thù lan tỏa trong nhu mô phổi hai bên và sinh thiết phổi thấy hình ảnh xâm nhập tế bào Langerhans trong mô phổi tổn thương. Báo cáo này nhằm lưu ý các bác sĩ trong việc chẩn đoán, tiên lượng, điều trị và theo dõi bệnh. Đồng thời cũng thảo luận thêm về một dạng bệnh phổi kẽ với biểu hiện chính trên phim X-quang và cắt lớp vi tính là các kén khí lan tỏa ở nhu mô phổi hai bên, điều này dễ chẩn đoán nhầm với các bệnh phổi khác như giãn phế quản, giãn phế nang hoặc bệnh phổi tắc nghẽn mãn tính (COPD).

Nghiên cứu cắt ngang đã được thực hiện trên 308 người cao tuổi (NCT) từ 60 tuổi trở lên từ tháng 06/2023 - 10/2023 nhằm mô tả thực trạng sử dụng dịch vụ khám chữa bệnh của người cao tuổi trong 4 tuần qua tại 2 xã An Đổ và Hưng Công thuộc huyện Bình Lục, Hà Nội năm 2023. Kết quả nghiên cứu cho thấy tỷ lệ người cao tuổi sử dụng dịch vụ khám chữa bệnh ở cơ sở y tế ở cả 2 xã là 61,3% ở An Đổ và 61,4% ở Hưng Công. Tỷ lệ người cao tuổi có thẻ BHYT là 93,1%. Đa phần người cao tuổi ở hai xã đều lựa chọn tuyến y tế cơ sở là nơi khám chữa bệnh khi xuất hiện triệu chứng. Tỷ lệ thường xuyên đi khám sức khỏe định kỳ ở xã Hưng công thấp hơn 15% so với xã An Đổ. Tỷ lệ người cao tuổi đi khám chữa bệnh trong 4 tuần qua chỉ khoảng 50% tổng số đối tượng bị ốm. Kết quả cần được duy trì và cải thiện thêm đối với nhóm đối tượng ở xã Hưng Công, bổ sung thêm thông tin, kiến thức cho người cao tuổi về việc duy trì sử dụng dịch vụ chăm sóc sức khỏe.
