The proliferation of fake news (hoaxes) in the digital era represents a significant challenge to public trust and social stability. The objective of this study is to evaluate the performance of three prominent machine learning algorithms, specifically Support Vector Machine (SVM), Naive Bayes, and Random Forest, in the classification of fake news. The dataset employed comprises validated examples of both authentic and fabricated news items. The research methods included text pre-processing, feature extraction using TF-IDF, model training, and performance evaluation using accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score metrics. The experimental results demonstrated that SVM achieved perfect accuracy (100%), outperforming Naive Bayes (94%) and Random Forest (99%). Additionally, SVM exhibited the optimal performance in precision, recall, and F1-score metrics. This research provides empirical evidence that SVM is the most effective model for detecting fake news. The implication of this research is the potential application of SVM in automated systems to help reduce the spread of fake news on online platforms.

In the low-carbon global aluminum cycle actual perspective, the need of remelting aluminum is in constant increase. The objective of this work was to build a portable aluminum foundry based on local materials. This foundry can be used to make small spare parts in complete safety and/or as practical melting equipment. The foundry is made up of a butane combustion Furnace and various tools for handling molten aluminum. The Furnace was manufactured by recycling a defective gas cylinder. After removing the top of the bottle, we lined the inside with a layer of local clay which serves as a 5-centimeter thermal insulator. The crucible was made by recycling a waste hermetic compressor, and the tools by recycling scrap metal. The tests carried out allowed to melt used cans and other parts of motorbikes and cars defective in aluminum. Liquid aluminum was cast to obtain cylindrical and prismatic blanks for machining, as well as other small mechanical parts. The cost of carrying out the project has been estimated at nearly 150,000 XAF.

Tomatoes are one of the most perishable fruits and vegetables and have a short shelf life. A large part of the tomatoes is lost after harvest. The so-called “armored” tomatoes grown in Adamaoua-Cameroon are no exception. Losses occur in harvesting, transport and storage. It is becoming urgent to design devices to solve this problem. In order to properly size these devices, we carried out a characterization of the ambient air and it was concluded that the ambient conditions were unfavorable for the preservation of these fruits. Then we made a characterization of the shape, diameter, length, mass and volume of this fruit. We found that the mean diameter is 3.58 cm, the standard deviation of the diameter set is 0.5 cm, the mean length 6.6 cm, the standard deviation of the length set is 0.84 cm, the mean side surface is 86.6 cm2, the standard deviation of the side surface set is 23.9 cm2, the mean mass of a fruit is 79.2g, the standard deviation of the mass set is 16.19g, the mean volume is 60.2 cm3 and the standard deviation of the volume set is 23.87 cm3. Subsequently, we measured the water content of samples of this fruit at different stages of ripening. It turned out that the water content of a tomato sample increases as it ripens. We also studied the colorimetric evolution of samples of “armored” tomatoes harvested when green ripe. We found that the samples did not ripen at the same speed. Some took 5 days while others took up to 7 days to reach red ripeness. After 8 days, it was observed that 12 samples were ripe and in good condition, so 44.8%.

Published: September 2024

Scopes and complexity of tasks related to providing hygienic safety of the population in the Russian Federation create great demand for up-to-date digitalization. It involves transformation of analogue data and work processes into electronic format, automation of business processes and operational data analysis.
The aim of this study was to describe basic scientific approaches and methodical techniques of digitalization in solving hygienic tasks of current importance.
The study involved using neural networks, mathematical modelling, operational structural and dynamic analysis, etc. As part of domestic hygienic science, the method of neural networks has been developed for situational modelling and forecasting the population life expectancy under the influence of a complex of heterogeneous factors. We developed methodology for analysis and parameterization of epidemic waves considering regional specificity. Science-intensive research is being conducted to build a digital model of a person as a tool for in siliko simulation of the body’s responses to any external influences. The results of cellular, subcellular, and molecular technologies are being actively translated into digital formats for the purposes of sanitary-epidemiological analysis, clinical epidemiology, and evidence-based medicine. To solve practical hygienic problems, a new conceptual scheme of the cascade system “control and surveillance activities – habitat – public health” has been proposed. It makes possible to assess prevented health losses and economic damages. A conceptual scheme has been developed for incorporating forms of remote control into the general system of automation sanitary service activities. There are described methods and techniques for solving a set of other hygienic problems, including the formation of an evidence base for the negative impact of risk factors on public health, digital processing of research data, identification of pollutants using computer vision methods, and a number of others.
Conclusion. Digitalization that involves use of multi-dimensional big data together with up-to-date methods for their science intensive analysis ensures the most prompt and adequate solutions to relevant hygienic issues, allows more accurate predictions and provides wider opportunities for effective prevention activities performed by institutions responsible for hygienic safety and population health in the country.

Introduction. The influence of natural silicon (Si) on the organism of laboratory animals was studied at levels corresponding to the current maximum permissible concentration of Si in drinking water. The first part of the study revealed a positive effect of the element on the activity of aspartate and alanine aminotransferases, the content of total protein, albumin and creatinine in blood serum. The second part of the study examined the manifestations of oxidative stress and the state of the antioxidant defense system in the same animals.
Materials and methods. The effect of drinking water containing natural Si at MPC levels was assessed in a 3-month experiment on eighty white outbred male rats. There were studied biochemical indices characterizing oxidative stress and the state of antioxidant defense including the content of malondialdehyde (MDA); activity of antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPX), albumin content in blood serum.
Results. The silicon entering the body of animals at concentrations of 17±3.4 mg/l and 20.5±4.1 mg/l significantly affected the manifestation of oxidative stress and the state of antioxidant defense indices. A decrease in the SOD, CAT, and GPX activity was recorded in parallel with a decline in the MDA content in the blood hemolysate and an increase in the albumin content in the blood serum.
Limitations. Limitations of the study are related to the short duration of observation and the small number of points for determining biochemical indices over time.
Conclusion. Natural silicon contained in drinking water in concentrations close to the maximum permissible concentration had a positive effect on the balance of lipid peroxidation and antioxidant protection, reducing oxidative stress in laboratory animals. The data obtained in the 1st and 2nd parts of the study on the positive effects of the natural silicon entering the body in laboratory animals at MPC levels need to be confirmed in longer and more detailed experiments. One of the reasons for health problems among the population of the silicon biogeochemical province of Chuvashia may presumably be the undetected intake of nanosilicon from drinking water.

Published: September 2024

Intensive production and use of medicines (drugs) leads to their release into the environment. To assess the situation and determine the tactics of safe handling of this type of medical waste, it is necessary to assess the legislative regulation of the issue.
In this analytical review there were analyzed currently in force regulatory documents concerning the treatment of pharmaceutical waste and their proper disposal. The relevant European standards and recommendations are given. A number of contradictions and unresolved issues have been identified. The analysis of the regulatory framework revealed the incoordination of sanitary and environmental legislation, which hinders the establishment of a safe pharmaceutical waste management system, leading to practical difficulties with their treatment (difficulties of disposal, legal disputes, etc.). The regulatory regulation of the same composition of pharmaceutical waste varies depending on the place of formation, and not on the composition and the perceived danger.
The absence of regulation of specific methods of disposal and neutralization of drug waste, depending on their composition as well as absence of the control over the effectiveness of these processes in terms of environmental impact has been revealed. There is no established requirements for specifying the methods of disposal of the released drugs by manufacturer. The determination of the hazard class by the environmental impact of pharmaceuticals formed during the implementation of medical activities is currently not necessary. The lack of a regulated system for collecting pharmaceuticals from the citizens does not allow individuals safely disposing this type of waste and centrally monitor their quantity. These circumstances can lead to uncontrolled destruction of pharmaceuticals with unknown consequences for both nature and public health.
There is needed A comprehensive solution to the problem of reducing the impact of pharmaceutical waste on the environment and the prevention of antimicrobial resistance with the adoption of a number of practical managerial and regulatory measures and the possible use of European experience.

Published: September 2024

Introduction. The prevalence of atherosclerosis in the Russian Federation has been poorly studied due to the large number of population groups. The assessment of the atherosclerosis rate is controversial because of different approaches and combinations of the examined vascular beds, while asymptomatic atherosclerosis is increasingly being detected due to the lack of proper attention of clinicians to patients of the middle group of cardiovascular fatal risk.
Materials and methods. Three hundred eighty five long-term labour experience 40 to 55 years workers of the main occupations of the coal and aluminum industry were examined. Using the SCORE scale, 78 miners and 79 metallurgists with average risk from 2 to 4% were identified from the total sample. All cases underwent ultrasound examination of the main arteries. The risk factors included in the fatal risk SCORE scale had been studied.
Results. A comparison of the atherosclerotic process of the main arteries in the studied groups revealed a high occurence of multifocal atherosclerosis, to a greater extent in miners – 80.3%, which is significantly less in comparison with aluminum production workers – 54.2%, p=0.020. The share of persons with a lesion of one vascular bed in the form of stenosis among miners significantly exceeded that of metallurgists: 68.0% and 50.6%, p=0.027. The same trend was observed in the brachiocephalic arteries (42.3 vs. 21.5%, p=0.005) and the main arteries of the lower extremities (55.1 vs. 34.2%, p=0.008), respectively. There were no significant differences in the commonly accepted risk factors for atherosclerosis between the groups.
Limitations. The study is limited to the number of patients with the signs corresponding to the middle fatal risk group on the SCORE scale.
Conclusion. The frequency of atherosclerosis among workers in the main occupations in the coal and aluminum industry, who have a moderate fatal risk, turned out to be extremely high, and to a greater extent in miners, which requires urgent preventive measures and medical supervision. Commonly accepted factors of moderate risk groups according to the SCORE scale of the studied occupational cohort were not leading in the development of atherosclerosis.

Introduction. The analysis of the incidence in adolescents (15–17 years old inclusive) showed its significant increase during the first two decades of the XXI century. The prevalence of borderline mental disorders among adolescents and cases with deviant behaviour, unhealthy lifestyle, conflict and difficult life situations are increasing. Adolescents and young people need comprehensive medical care, managed with taking into account age-related psychological and social characteristics. The purpose of the study is to analyze the trend in health indicators of older adolescents, social problems affecting the development of their health and education, and scientific substantiation of the main directions and principles of managing medical care and social assistance to adolescents and youth. Materials and methods. According to official statistics, a comparative analysis of the incidence in 0–14 years children and 15–17 years adolescents for the period 2005–2022 was carried out by the main classes of somatic pathology and mental disorders. According to scientific literature, basic information about the medical and social problems in adolescents and 15–25 years youth has been systematized. Results. Analysis of the incidence in adolescents showed its growth and revealed classes of diseases for which the rates of adolescents are higher than in children. This allows determining the main directions of treatment and preventive work. The main medical and social problems of adolescents include: health risks caused by educational factors; unhealthy lifestyle; destructive forms of behaviour; early sexual activity; early employment; professional choice that does not correspond to individual health characteristics. Limitations. The considered medical and social problems are characteristic of older adolescents (15–17 years old inclusive) and young people. Conclusion. Due to the high incidence and unfavourable course of pathologies, psychological characteristics, and the significant prevalence of medical-social problems in adolescence and young people, it is advisable to create medical-social centers for adolescents and youth on the basis of medical institutions in the country.

Published: September 2024

This article investigated the impact of effective internal control systems on Return on Asset (ROA) of deposit money banks in Nigeria. Internal controls are crucial for ensuring the accuracy and reliability of financial reporting, compliance with laws and regulations and the overall operational efficiency of financial institutions. The study adopted an ex-post facto research design. Secondary data were extracted from the audited financial statement of 10 deposit money banks, listed on the Nigerian Exchange Group (NGX). Data were subjected to the descriptive statistics (mean, median, mode and standard deviation) and inferential statistics (fixed effect regression analysis).Results from the analysis revealed that internal control system affects the return on assets significantly, which means that any slight reduction in the internal control system will affect the rate at which their assets will generate revenue to the banks negatively especially when the risks that may arise is not properly assessed and mitigated by the risk management committee. The paper concludes that there is a statistically significant relationship between the two variables, it can be inferred that there is an established connection between the internal control system and the financial performance of the sampled deposit money banks in Nigeria at a significant level.

Influence of Biophysical Factors on the Adoption of Soil Conserving Practices among Wheat Farmers in Kazakhstan
Authors: Nugymanov Nurakhmet , Muratbek Baglan , Geng Xianhui
Published: September 2024

The global agricultural sector faces significant challenges, including land degradation and soil fertility depletion, which impact growth and productivity. This study explores the influence of biophysical factors on the adoption of Soil Conserving Practices (SCPs) among 530 wheat farm households in Kazakhstan. Utilizing a multivariate probit model and ordered probit regression, the study assesses the determinants and intensity of SCP adoption, revealing an overall adoption rate of 73%. The findings indicate that most biophysical characteristics are not statistically significant in influencing SCP adoption, with the exception of farm-house distance. Specifically, farm-house distance is significantly and negatively associated with the adoption of minimum tillage and the overall intensity of SCP adoption. As distance increases, the likelihood of adopting minimum tillage decreases, and the probability of adopting multiple SCPs diminishes. Logistical challenges, labor and time constraints, limited access to information and extension services, and infrastructure limitations contribute to this negative association. Additionally, an increase in farm-house distance slightly raises the likelihood of adopting one SCP by approximately 1%, while reducing the likelihood of adopting two SCPs by about 1% and three SCPs by approximately 4.8%. Therefore, this study provides critical insights into how farm-house distance impacts the adoption of SCPs, emphasizing the need for targeted policies and interventions to address logistical and infrastructural barriers. By highlighting the specific challenges faced by distant farm households, the research advocates for tailored support mechanisms to enhance SCP adoption, thereby improving the soil degradation and promoting agricultural sustainability and improving rural livelihoods.
