Over the last few decades, the approach to geological and geomorphological surveys has changed remarkably. The advent of digital tools has allowed significant advances in the acquisition and management of survey data. In this paper, we demonstrate the development and testing of a new and effective digital survey method that allows for the fast acquisition and collaborative storage and management of data and information. This method was tested in collaboration with five universities for the mapping and classification of landslides in 249 survey areas in Central Italy and, more precisely, in the municipalities affected by the 2016 Central Italy Earthquake. Geological and geomorphological surveys were carried out in the field with tablet PCs, GPS, and cameras. The survey project for collecting field data was based on the structure of the Italian Landslide Inventory (IFFI) and the Territorial Resilience Central Apennines Earthquake Reconstruction (ReSTART) projects. The structure of the database and input forms were implemented for these aims. Moreover, the data and information were retrieved and organised in detailed records useful to the administrative entities.
A Contrastive Study of the Translator’s Behaviour in English and Spanish Translations of Metaphors in Xi Jinping: The Governance of China
Authors: Chang Jiang , Ying Luo
Published: March 2024

This study examines the English and Spanish translations of metaphors in Xi Jinping: The Governance of China (I-III) within the theoretical framework of Translator Behavior Criticism. In the description of the translators’ behavioral tendencies and diachronic changes, differences are identified between the English and Spanish translating teams with regards to their philosophy of translation, which leads to an analysis of the social motivations of the translators’ behaviors within the field of political discourse translation in China. The following findings have been derived: 1) The Spanish translation is faithful to the form of expression of the ST, which suggests a translators’ behavioral tendency towards the “truth-seeking” principle. The English translation is freer since it upholds a semantic rather than formal equivalence to the ST, suggesting that the English translating team is more oriented towards the “utility-attaining” principle than their Spanish counterparts. 2) Observed from a diachronic perspective, the English translating team always maintained a balance between the two above-mentioned principles in translating the metaphors and their “truth-seeking” and “utility-attaining” behaviors were both enhanced in their translation of the third volume. The Spanish translating team always tilted towards the “truth-seeking” principle, demonstrating just a slight increase of “utility-attaining” behavior throughout their translation of the three volumes. 3) There is an evident difference between the English and Spanish translating teams regarding their “philosophy of faithfulness”. A “semantic” faithfulness with pragmatic concerns advocated by the former team is becoming the mainstream norm governing the current field of political discourse translation in China.

Authors: Hutahaean Serri , Mutiara Nada
Published: March 2024

The increase in Covid-19 cases has made nurses who handle Covid-19 patients feel work stress, which has led to poor patient safety implementation. Irregular work shift schedules for nurses can also lead to errors and poor patient safety implementation. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between work stress and nurses' work shifts in the Inpatient Room of RSUD X during the Covid-19 pandemic. This research method uses descriptive-analytic with a cross-sectional design. The data collection period is in June 2021. Sampling was carried out using the purposive sampling technique. The sample of this research is 48 nurses in the Inpatient Room. The research instrument used the IPSG questionnaire which was adopted from the Nasution questionnaire, (2013) and the NIOSH Generic Job Stress Questionnaire questionnaire. The results were analyzed using the chi-square test, indicating that there was a significant relationship between work stress and the implementation of patient safety (p=0.010) and there was a significant relationship between work shifts and the implementation of patient safety (p=0.022). It can be concluded that there is a significant relationship between work stress and nurse work shifts and the application of patient safety during the Covid-19 pandemic. Hospital management needs to pay attention to the mental condition of nurses, increase the number of workers and organize effective work shifts during the Covid-19 pandemic.
Navigating endoscopic challenges in situs inversus totalis: strategies for optimal procedure completion and patient safety
Authors: Mangan Simone H. , Ng Justin , Ng Jessica
Published: March 2024

Flexible endoscopy is a gold standard diagnostic test for the evaluation of the gastrointestinal tract and an accessible intervention in clinical practice. Completion rates are generally high while perforation rates are low in experienced hands. Situs inversus totalis (SIT) is a rare congenital abnormality that involves the complete transposition of all the viscera. In less-experienced hands, incompletion and perforation rates may increase in patients with SIT due to unfamiliarity with anatomy. The purpose of this case report is to present methods such as reverse manoeuvres to assist in the safe completion of an endoscopy in SIT when technical difficulties arise.  Using a case of a patient in a rural hospital who presented for a colonoscopy who had SIT, we discuss the use of adjuncts, variations in segment specific manoeuvres, traditional positioning and abdominal pressure points in-order to perform a safe and successful endoscopy in a patient with SIT.
Análisis del concepto de mímesis en la antigua Grecia y en los diálogos III y X de La República de Platón
Authors: Jaimes-Ramirez Diego Armando
Published: March 2024

En este artículo, se abordará el concepto de mímesis, término de gran relevancia en la antigua Grecia, especialmente en el ámbito del arte, y que fue objeto de reflexión de destacados filósofos griegos, entre los cuales destaca Platón, quien ofreció una interpretación profunda y provocadora sobre la mímesisen su obra filosófica. En este análisis se mostrará que se trata de un término que se adapta a distintos contextos, lo que permite que se aplique de modos diversos. Tales aplicaciones posibilitan ver que no se debe interpretar de un modo exclusivo, por ejemplo, al arte, porque sería reducir innecesariamente el significado del término.Para mostrar lo planteado, el artículo se divide en tres acápites: inicialmente se hará un análisis de la mímesisen el pensamiento presocrático, luego, se examinará el término en el libro II y III de La República, y, por último, se analizará y mostrará la evolucióndel término en La Repúblicadel filósofo ateniense y el porqué Platón considera, en el libro X, que la poesía mimética carece de valor de conocimiento.

The Effect of Task-Oriented Training and Progressive Resisted Exercise on Upper Limb Function and Quality of Life in Chronic Stroke Patients
Authors: Chintamani Radhika
Published: March 2024

Introduction: Stroke is defined as a neurological deficit subjected to acute focal injury of the Central Nervous System (CNS) due to vascular cause. The cause may be several embracing cerebral infarctions. Stroke is the third leading cause of death and the most common cause of disability among adults. Many studies have shown that motor impairment is a common factor leading to disability in stroke survivors. Improving the deficient motor power and strategies will reduce motor disability (Task-oriented training is given mainly for improving Functional performance). Need for the Study: Studies have shown a significant effect on motor function post-stroke with several techniques like conventional exercise, Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF), and Brunnstorm techniques. The effect of the treatment was significant because the weak muscles were strengthened, and the tight muscles were relaxed. However, there is a scarcity in the literature related to the effect of task-oriented training on motor performance in subjects with chronic stroke. Hence this study is undertaken. Methods: The study was carried out in the OPD of the College of Physiotherapy- Dayananda Sagar University-Bangalore on a sample size of 40 subjects for 6 months. It was a randomised clinical trial where subjects were split into two groups with task-oriented training and Progressive Resisted Exercises (PRE). The therapy was 30 minutes/session for 5 days /week for 4 weeks. Results: Task-oriented training showed significant changes within the group from pre- and post-trial and between the group effects, thus demonstrating it to be more significant in enhancing motor performance compared to mere strengthening exercises. Conclusion: The current study demonstrates that task oriented training compared to Progressive Resisted Exercises (PRE) works efficiently in improving upper limb functions and quality of life. The improvement in motor performance varied but the Chedoke Arm and Hand Activity Inventory and Stroke Impairment Scale showed quite significant improvement post-rehabilitation with task-oriented training compared to Progressive Resisted Exercise.
A Survey-Based Analysis of the Extent of Aluminium Involvement in our Lives for Risk Assessment
Authors: Supriya Singh Gupta , Pradnya Gangurde
Published: March 2024

Despite being a non-essential metal in the body, we acquire aluminium via various sources such as aluminium cookware, foil, medicines, cosmetics, food, water, and aluminium-industries. Though it can be eliminated from our body, the excess and cumulative effect can’t be ignored. Aluminium load above the threshold causes several diseases like Alzheimer’s, osteomalacia, anaemia, and cancer. Hence, the current study was designed to explore the frequency of aluminium usage in various forms in the Indian population of northwest rural and urban regions of Maharashtra and investigate any preferential difference in aluminium usage with occupation, education, income, and family structure. It is a correlational study designed to check the extent of aluminium involvement in their lives and their perception of awareness. A non-random sampling method using social media was utilized for data collection, and data were analyzed using a statistical tool, Jamovi. A survey-based analysis of the responses to a pre-designed questionnaire was done. The prominent factor contributing to the aluminium load was found to be the aluminium vessel used in our kitchen. Boiling, storing, and baking edible items facilitate its leaching into food to toxic levels. Further analysis revealed a significant correlation of financial and educational status with aluminium usage. Reducing aluminium vessel usage for cooking can significantly reduce aluminium load in our bodies. However, we still need to be vigilant about the aluminium load which the other products are imparting upon us. Hence, awareness and exploring the alternatives are the only options to keep a check on the aluminium load.
Prevalence of Upper Cross Syndrome in Multipara Women
Authors: Thomas Mebin Sojan , Yadav Trupti
Published: March 2024

Background: Upper Cross Syndrome (UCS) is now a commonly emerging syndrome in the presently existent population. In terms of clinical features, it can be defined as a postural disorder resulting from constriction of the pectoral muscles coupled with weakness of the trapezius and deep neck flexors, leading to forward-facing head stance, rounded shoulders, and kyphosis of the thoracic cavity. Comprehensive documentation of the incidence of this syndrome in multiparous communities is lacking in the literature. As a result, a study was carried out to ascertain the prevalence of UCS in multiparous women. Objective: To determine the prevalence of UCS in multiparous women. Methods: This study was approved by the Ethical Committee and the Protocol Committee (protocol no. 629/2022-2023). The subjects of the prospective cohort study were women who are multiparous and reside in Karad, Maharashtra, India. Using cluster sampling, 76 multiparous participants were included. Assessments were conducted for individuals within the age range of 23 to 58 years, evaluating them based on Craniovertebral Angle (CVA), Forward Head Posture (FHP), pectoralis minor tightness, and deep neck flexor strength. Results: This research looked at 76 participants involved in the study out of which 66.7% were prone to upper cross syndrome. Conclusion: The prevalence of UCS was notably high among multiparous women, with poor posture habits identified as a significant risk factor.

Published: March 2024

Unfortunately, there are many causes of neck pain, the most prevalent ones are long periods of sitting, bad workplace ergonomics and keeping an unnatural neck posture. Studies show that small-scale industries lack awareness of and comprehension of ergonomics. Unpredictable schedules, long hours, hazardous workplaces, and all these problems, including inadequate vocational training, may negatively impact employees’ HRQOL and restrict their capacity to take part in and carry out activities. Progressive resisted training, neuromuscular training exercises, stretching, and ergonomic recommendations are all recommended. To enhance the quality of life of industrial workers, fitness programs must be implemented. The aim is to ascertain how a work-based exercise program affects industrial workers with nonspecific neck discomfort in terms of activity limitation and participation restriction. To determine the risk of nonspecific neck discomfort among industrial workers, the RULA scale was administered to 92 individuals in the study who had VAS values ranging from 3-6. Neck ROM was also recorded. An ICF documentation form was used to ascertain the engagement and involvement. Over the course of two weeks, the subjects received a work-based exercise program on alternate days. ROM, RULA, and ICF documentation were among the outcome variables that were assessed both before and after the intervention. The result was that there was a noteworthy distinction noted between the RULA, ROM pretest and post-test scores as well as ICF codes. Differences between the pre and post-test of VAS were significant difference (Z=8.3290, p=0.0001). To conclude the study found that industrial workers lacked knowledge about ergonomics. Therefore, exercises and ergonomics helped manage neck pain and improve the range of motion.

This article evaluates the book dedicated to the work of Nikolai Korolkov. The authors of the review point out the necessity to expand the database of the sources with the help of the Moscow archives, they also suggest that the references to many available sources could help create a more holistic impression of the personality of the writer. Thus, the review of the work The city of roofs, deposited in the Russian State Archive of Literature and Art, has not been mentioned. The same archive holds other documents relevant for this topic. Since Saratov Association of Proletariat Writers (SAPP) was not validated in 1924 due to the lack of charter, the filing documents of its members are in Moscow, in the place where the funds of the principal organization – All-Union Association of Proletariat Writers (VAPP) – are deposited. The record card of the VAPP member was not used, although it could have helped to compile a more thorough biographical reference about the writer, since the record cards of this type always contained profession and the place of work or study of the member of the organization. The bibliography does not mention the already arranged chronicle of SAPP activity, the works of P. A. Bugaenko, A. K. Zhuikova, A. A. Demchenko, I. Yu. Ivanyushina, E. G. Elina, A. N. Donin and many others are not touched upon either. The most recent article by A. S. Kasovich is not cited (2022). Nevertheless, it is highlighted that the authors have delivered significant material for further research. Saratov school of philology is urged to render bibliographic help to the authors for the comprehensive augmentation of knowledge.
Text internationalization in the paradigm of linguistic and translatological studies: Global and pre-localization directions of internationalization
Authors:   Volgograd State University, Shepovskii Oleg E.
Published: March 2024

The research deals with linguistic and extralinguistic features of the internationalization process of multimedia products text materials. The term internationalization is considered in the paper within the framework of the translation activity “GILT processes” (processes of globalization, internationalization, localization and translation). The article describes the current state of linguistic and translatological studies of the internationalization process. The paper presents the definition of the internationalization concept. The range of procedures carried out in the process of internationalization is defined. The paper describes the most significant technical procedures performed on the product during internationalization. The paper provides some characteristic linguistic transformations caused by the tasks of internationalization. The research paper offers several examples of using internationalization in the video game industry, the film industry and in creating multilingual and global versions of websites. As a result of the conducted research, two directions of internationalization were identified: pre-localization and global ones. The pre-localization direction of internationalization is to create an intermediate version of the product (mainly in English), which serves to simplify localization (following internationalization) into other languages. This approach significantly reduces the cost of creating a multilingual version of the product. The global direction of internationalization is to create a global version of this product in English. It is assumed that users of the global version can be not only native English speakers, but also those who speak it as a foreign language. Due to the wide spread of English as a foreign language in the world, the creation of an internationalized English version of the product allows companies to enter the global market with significantly lower financial costs and in a shorter timeframe than in the case of creating a multilingual version of the same product.

Authors: Maleki Reyhane , Dehnavi Sedigheh Rezaei
Published: March 2024

Background: Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) is an emerging form of cognitive-behavioral treatment that is based on functional context.
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of ACT in individual and social adaptation in adolescents with disabled parents
Methods: The research design was a quasi-experimental, pre-test and post-test, with the control and experimental groups. The study population included all female adolescents with disabled parents in Mobarakeh, Isfahan, Iran, in 2017. The sample included 30 female adolescents with disabled parents selected using the purposive sampling method. The participants were randomly assigned to both experimental and control groups. The experimental group received ACT tests in 8 sessions, and each session lasted 90 minutes. The participants were assigned to each group before the intervention and at the end of the intervention using the California Psychological Inventory (CPI). Statistical analysis for this study was performed using SPSS-22 software for statistical calculations, and descriptive and inferential statistics were used for data analysis.
Results: According to the results, the mean ± standard deviation (SD) of the individual adaptation and social adaptation variables in the experimental and control groups during the post-test period (130.58 ± 7.88 and 128.50 ± 7.79, respectively), compared to the pre-test (44.8 ± 0.7128 and 45.5 ± 0.5128, respectively), did not increase significantly. Moreover, the results indicated that there was no significant difference in the post-test period between individual adaptation scores (F = 1.191; P = 0.288; η2 = 0.054) and social adaptation scores (F = 0.727; P = 0.403; η2 = 0.033) of the experimental group and the control group.
Conclusions: The results showed that there was no significant difference between individual and social adaptation scores in the post-test stage. This study suggests that treatment attempts were not very effective.

In the absence of an effective treatment for COVID-19, we need other methods to control the pandemic of this virus. To achieve this goal, we need non-pharmacological interventions and self-protection. Experience in controlling other viral diseases demonstrated that vaccines are the best way to make social immunity. In this study, we have aimed to review precautions and self-protection methods for fighting the COVID-19 pandemic. This study identified that non-pharmacological and pharmacological interventions, mask-wearing, hand washing, home quarantine, appropriate ventilation, social distancing, chemical disinfectants, and vaccination would be the efficient preventive modalities to mitigate and control the COVID-19 pandemic.

Published: March 2024

Background: Good nutrition is essential to prevent Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) like diabetes and heart disease. NCDs account for a large Global Burden of Disease (GBD). There are different guidelines for a healthy diet to avoid obesity and NCDs and reduce GBD. World Health Organization has published recommendations named Nutrient Profile Model (NPM) to categorize foods as healthy and unhealthy.
Methods: First, the keywords Nutrient Profile Model and Child were searched in Web of Science, Scopus, Google Scholar, and PubMed databases, then articles in the English language until October 6, 2023 were selected and entered into the Endnote X8 resource management software. Duplicated and unrelated articles with the main purpose of this project were excluded from the study. Finally, 23 studies out of 542 entered the full evaluation stage according inclusion criteria.
Results: Various studies investigated NP models’ application to food advertisements. The results revealed that most foods and beverages advertised on TV are not healthy, according to NPM. Also, the unhealthiness of foods like sweet beverages was illustrated, and studies recommended not be marketed to children. NPM is recommended as a tool to help governments to regulate marketing rules for food and legislate food advertisement.
Conclusion: NPM can be a guideline for labeling health claims and warning labels on food packages and adverting. More strict regulations are recommended for labeling health claims. Articles recommended using the Nutrient Profile Model as a tool for checking the criteria of foods before allowing producers to label them with health claims and advertise on TV.

Published: March 2024

Background: Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting (PONV) is one of the most common complications of general anesthesia, moreover opioid addiction increases the risk of PONV. Hence, this study evaluates the effect of administering dexmedetomidine infusion as an intraoperative analgesic on PONV in opium-addicted patients who underwent elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Methods: In a randomized clinical trial, 100 opium-addicted patients who were candidates for elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery under general anesthesia were studied in two groups of 50 participants. The intervention group received dexmedetomidine infusion 10 min after induction of anesthesia until the end of surgery. The placebo group received normal saline at the same time. The rate of PONV was compared between the two groups.
Results: Both groups had no significant difference in terms of hemodynamic parameters during surgery, including pulse rate, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and duration of anesthesia. In the dexmedetomidine group, patients had less PONV than the control group, and this difference was significant (p=0.0164).
Conclusion: Dexmedetomidine administration during laparoscopic surgery can reduce PONV, especially in patients addicted to opium.

Authors: Gharib Behdad , Memarian Sara
Published: March 2024

Background: We aimed to identify the factors affecting the in-hospital Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) to investigate the effect of the time of in-hospital CPR on its immediate outcome in pediatric patients.
Methods: This retrospective study investigated CPR events performed at a teaching hospital in Tehran, Iran, from March 2018 to March 2019. After obtaining the necessary academic and ethical approvals, the pertinent data were transcribed from patient records and analyzed. No identifying data about patients or their families were extracted.  
Results: Chi-square test showed a significant difference in the occurrence of CPR on two-hour time blocks (p=0.041), with dips at 0-2 a.m. and 12-2 p.m. and heights at 2-4 p.m. and 6-8 p.m. (representing 5, 6, 17 and 17 CPR events, respectively). The occurrence of CPR during the night shift was significantly less than in the morning and evening shifts (p=0.000 and 0.005 respectively). Of 161 subjects with a known immediate outcome of CPR, 86 (53.4%) survived, and 75 (46.6%) died. The outcome was significantly less favorable in the evening shift compared to the morning shift (p=0.028), but no significant differences in the outcome were found between morning and night shifts (p=0.163), evening and night shifts (p=0.256), day and night (p=0.637) or workdays and weekends (p=0.925).
Conclusion: We found a significantly higher occurrence of CPR at 2-4 p.m. and 6-8 p.m., at the beginning and end of the evening shift and a higher rate of post-CPR death in this shift.

Published: March 2024

Background: COVID-19 had a destructive effect on human’s life. People with COVID-19 experienced high levels of depression, anxiety, and low Quality of Life (QOL). The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of the cognitive-behavioral intervention package on reducing stress, depression, and anxiety, as well as improving the QOL of patients with COVID-19.
Methods: In this randomized controlled trial, 60 patients with COVID-19 who entered the isolation ward were included and randomly divided into control and experimental groups. The experimental group entered the intervention sessions once a week for 45 minutes for eight consecutive weeks. The intervention consisted of 8 sessions of CBT which was implemented for the experimental group. Patients in the control group received routine care during this period. DASS21, the Symptom Checklist (SCL-90), Fear of COVID-19 Scale (FCV-19S), and WHO-QOL were used to measure patients’ mental health and QOL. Data analysis was performed with ANCOVA using SPSS24 software.
Results: There was no significant difference between groups in terms of DASS21, SCL-90 and QOL before intervention (p<0.05). After intervention, depression symptom and QOL were significantly improved in the experimental group compared to control group (p< 0.05). Accordingly, the findings stated the session of intervention was effective in improving the QOL (p<0.05) and mental illnesses (p<0.05) in patients with COVID-19.
Conclusion: Our designed cognitive-behavioral intervention package can enhance the awareness and mental health of patients with COVID-19. This package as an auxiliary treatment can reduce anxiety/depression and improve QOL in patients with COVID-19. Therefore, our intervention package can serve as a useful solution for clinical settings to reduce mental health problems during crisis.

Published: March 2024

Background: Spheno-occipital synchondrosis is a growth center that is involved in craniofacial development. Since osteogenesis of this synchondrosis occurs relatively later than other synchondroses, it has been taken into account for age estimation in forensics. This study aimed to evaluate spheno-occipital synchondrosis using Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) in an Iranian population.
Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 148 CBCT images (76 women and 72 men) of patients aged 7-25 years, with a mean age of 19.92±6.3 years, were assessed by two radiologists to analyze the spheno-occipital synchondrosis fusion degree using a four-stage system. In addition, the third molar development degree (Demirjian index) was assessed in panoramic and cross-sectional views of CBCT images. The correlation between spheno-occipital synchondrosis fusion degree and age was obtained. Multiple regression analysis was used for age estimation using spheno-occipital synchondrosis fusion degree and third molar development degree (Demirjian index). Intra-observer and inter-observer coefficients of agreements were also measured. IBM SPSS Statistics 20.0 was used.
Results: There was a positive correlation between spheno-occipital synchondrosis fusion degree and age (r=0.75, p<0.001). The multiple regression model provides a more robust model than when each age marker is utilized individually. The kappa coefficient was 0.53 for inter-observer agreement and 0.77-0.92 for intra-observer agreement.
Conclusion: Assessing the four-stage spheno-occipital synchondrosis fusion degree was not a robust method; however, combined with the third molar development (Demirjian index), it could be considered as an appropriate marker for age estimation in 7-25-year-old Iranian population.

Background: The aim of this study was to investigate if listening to music can help reduce stress for women who work in an electric car parts factory in Mashhad.
Methods: Out of 200 people in this study, 32 were chosen at random and split into two groups: one for the experiment and one for comparison. To gather information, we used a job stress questionnaire and a music therapy plan that consisted of 30 sessions, which lasted for one month. In this study, we played the music that the participants liked 4 times during each session. Each time, we played the music for 15 minutes, while they were taking a break or before they started working.
Results: There were 16 participants in the group we tested. The people in the control group followed their normal way of doing things and did not use this procedure. The research found that music intervention helps decrease the occupational stress in women more than the traditional work schedule method. The effect size of the music intervention was 0.809, which means it had approximately an 81% impact on reducing stress.
Conclusion: The results of the pre-tests and post-tests indicated that the stress levels of women in the experiment group decreased significantly after listening to music. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that listening to music while taking breaks at work helps to lower job stress.

Background: Tough COVID-19 predominantly affects the respiratory tract, and extra-pulmonary manifestations, including neuromuscular complaints have been associated with this disorder. It is vital to monitor COVID-19 cases for the occurrence of Neuromuscular Disorders (NMDs), which could be overshadowed by severe respiratory and cardiovascular symptoms. In this study, we reported electrophysiological findings of a series of COVID-19 patients with complaints of paresthesia and weakness.
Methods: In this case series, the Electrodiagnostic studies (EDX) of 36 patients with recent complaints of weakness or paresthesia and a history of COVID-19 before symptoms were reported.
Results: 12 cases (33.3%) had abnormal EDX, five males and seven females, with a mean age of 51.42±11.49 years, history of hospitalization in five cases (41.7%), and ICU admission in four (33.3%). Seven cases were concluded as having a predominantly axonal type polyneuropathy (five sensory-motor and two sensory polyneuropathies). Of these seven, one was suggestive of Critical Illness Neuropathy (CIN). Three cases demonstrated a myopathic pattern with a history of ICU admission, hence the impression of Critical Illness Myopathy (CIM). In addition, one of these three, developed both myopathy and neuropathy and thus, is considered as having CIM/N. One case was diagnosed with Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (CIDP). The last case demonstrated an inflammatory involvement of lumbosacral roots (COVID-19-related radiculitis).
Conclusion: COVID-19 could be associated with a wide range of NMDs. In this study, the presence of axonal polyneuropathy, CIDP, and myopathy was demonstrated following SAR-COV-2 infection. Also, CIN/M was observed in COVID-19 patients with a history of ICU admission

The article deals with the legal nature of the second right and the specifics of the implementation of the second right in the framework of the option to conclude a contract. The peculiarity of the option to conclude a contract is that the option to conclude a contract does not impose on the acceptor the obligation to conclude the main agreement, the acceptor has the right to choose: to agree to an irrevocable offer or to refrain from consent. The legal nature of this right has been and is the subject of discussion in the legal community. The author comes to the conclusion that the second power in the context of an option agreement is a relative power and is carried out exclusively within the framework of a relative legal relationship. The second rights have a relative nature, requiring active legal interaction between the parties.

Academic writing is an inseparable aspect of graduate school (Holmes et al., 2018) as students’ academic writing is the primary basis for assessment (Turner, 2011). The high-stakes nature of academic writing is magnified for plurilingual students, whose attendance at English medium universities is growing exponentially (Fenton-Smith & Humphreys, 2017). However, there is a scarcity of research that addresses how faculty support writing as an essential practice for plurilingual graduate students, particularly in English-medium universities where English is implicated in structures of power and privilege. Employing a critical analytic collaborative autoethnography (Anderson, 2006; Kempny, 2022) this research uses polyvocal conversations among seven researcher/practitioners to consider the question of how faculty members perceive and respond to the academic writing needs of plurilingual graduate students. Informed by intersectionality (Crenshaw, 2017; Hankivsky, 2014), these conversations illuminate the ways both educator identities and epistemological turns in education theory impact approaches to writing support for plurilingual graduate writers. Importantly, these discussions are implicated in the socio-political contexts of Canadian and Australian universities where systems of inequality act to marginalise plurilingual writers. These contextualised conversations then aim to problematise and revise existent, dominant deficit discourses and pedagogies of writing support for plurilingual students. Findings illuminate the capacity of educators, who are cognisant of their power and place, to generate alternative practices to support plurilingual graduate writers in service of more asset-orientated and inclusive spaces that take advantage of students’ plurilingual repertoires in English-dominant universities.
How Mediatization Of Arabic Learning Affects Religious Culture At The Indonesian Islamic University

Published: March 2024

Mediatization has transformed Arabic-language education from the personal to the instrumental and has provided a rapid, convergent approach to language learning. Such an approach, however, has distanced students from their education, as mediatized learning cannot convey the teacher's values. This article seeks not only to map the changing trends in Arabic-language education but also to analyze the implications of the ongoing mediatization process. Students' literacy influences their ability to learn Arabic through self-motivated, self-regulated learning and affects religious culture. This study finds that language learning has been transformed from a personal-religious cultural approach to an instrumental-functional one. At the same time, students have become dependent on technology and lost religious values, while their language has become formalized owing to the standardization of learning media. This study recommends improving media literacy to maximize students' achievements and free them from their dependence on media technology.
