PATTERN RECOGNITION ,APPROACH AND CLINICO-RADIOLOGIC EVALUATION OF MYELOPATHIES
Authors: Imtiyaz Ali Shaik , Chowdary Edara Supriya
Published: February 2023

INTRODUCTION Myelopathy, the rapid or insidious onset of motor and sensory abnormalities referable to the spinal
cord, occurs as a result of a variety of causes that may be classied on the basis of their location of origin (intramedullary,
intradural-extramedullary, and extradural). Osteophytic spurring and disc herniation may also produce myelopathy localised to the thoracic
spine, though less commonly. Degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM) is a progressive spine disease and the most common cause of spinal
cord dysfunction in adults worldwide.
AIM OF THE STUDY:
1. To study the clinical prole of cases of Myelopathy
2. To study the pattern of spinal cord involvement
3. To compare the clinical diagnosis with MRI diagnosis
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Ÿ Study setting: The study was conducted on patients admitted in the departments of neurology and neurosurgery with clinical suspicion of
spinal cord disease
Ÿ Study design: The current study was a prospective stud
Ÿ Study period: The study was conducted between august 2021 to July 2022
Ÿ Sample size: The present prospective study included 30 patients admitted in the departments of neurology and neurosurgery with clinical
suspicion of spinal cord disease.
INCLUSION CRITERIA: Inclusion criteria include patients with clinical suspicion of spinal cord disease of age group 20-80 years were
included as study participants in the present study.
EXCLUSION CRITERIA: The current study excluded patients with seizures, abnormal higher mental functions, and children.
RESULTS
Ÿ In the present series, the patient's age ranged from 20 years to 80 years
Ÿ The majority of 53.33% of participants were aged between 51 to 60 years, followed by 61 to 70 years was 13.33%, 21 to 30 years and 41 to 50
was 10% for each
Ÿ Distribution of cases according to etiology: Among the study population, 17 (57%) participants had cervical spondylosis, 4 (13%)
participants had caries spine, 3 (10%) participants had a vertebral fracture and others for each, 2 (7%) participants had uorosis and only 1
(3%) participant had spinal tumor
Ÿ Clinico-radiological patterns of spinal cord syndromes: The majority of 50% of participants had Anterior + Posterior Cord involvement. The
proportion of posterior cord, pan cord, and the central cord was 20%, 13.33%, and 10% respectively
CONCLUSION:
Ÿ The present study results have analyzed the prole of myelopathies and found more male preponderance
Ÿ The commonest cause of compressive myelopathy was Cervical spondylosis
Ÿ Anterior plus posterior cord syndrome was the commonest pattern seen which was followed by posterior cord syndrome and the least
observed pattern was anterior cord syndrome. Hence, it can be concluded that MRI could suggest the location of the lesion and correlated
well with clinical diagnosis.
SceDL: A Simultaneous Compression and Encryption Scheme for Deep Learning Models
Authors: Shrivastava Nivedita , sarangi smruti ranjan
Published: February 2023

Efficiently securing and compressing neural network models is a problem of significant interest due to its high popularity in various machine learning and computer vision applications such as industrial automation, autonomous vehicles, surveillance, and medical imaging. Such technologies are necessary while running machine learning models in both resource-constrained edge devices as well as cloud-based servers. These models embody valuable intellectual property that must be protected. Traditional encryption ciphers can provide high security guarantees in order to secure the model, but their sizes are prohibitive for resource-constrained devices. In this paper, we present a simultaneous compression and encryption approach for deep learning models, where the model weights are encrypted using chaotic maps. We claim that employing multiple chaotic maps and a lossless compression method can help us create not only an efficient encryption scheme but also compress the models efficiently in a hardware-friendly manner. This reduces the model storage overheads by 1.51× as compared to the nearest computing work. Additionally, our method is 70% faster and provides much better security guarantees

Critical recurrence scale thresholds
Authors: Kasolis Fotios , Clemens Markus
Published: February 2023

Recurrence-based studies are employed for determining dynamical properties and for analyzing and processing time-series. Such studies rely on the so-called recurrence matrix, which is an orbit-specific binary representation of a proximity relation on the phase space. Customarily, this state proximity relation is deduced from the underlying metric structure via thresholding, and hence, a single user parameter is required for forming a recurrence matrix, unless embeddings are used. Since most of the prescriptions that can be found in the literature for identifying a suitable recurrence threshold are either heuristic or task-specific, a scaling-analysis framework, which identifies critical scales that emerge during the evolution based on the entropy of maximum sojourn time probability vectors, is introduced and validated here.
ChatGPT for Visually Impaired and Blind
Authors: Kuzdeuov Askat , Nurgaliyev Shakhizat , Varol Hüseyin Atakan
Published: February 2023

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), more than hundreds of million people have some type of visual disability today. Vision impairment has a personal impact with lifelong consequences because more than 80\% of our perception, cognition, learning, and daily activities are mediated through vision. As a result, visually impaired and blind people stagnate at work and in education due to inaccessible technologies. In this regard, we present a speech-based assistive system for visually impaired and blind people to interact with ChatGPT. The system employs automatic speech recognition (ASR), text-to-speech (TTS), and a messenger bot (Telegram) to enable a natural interface to ChatGPT for people with visual disabilities. Our preliminary experiments showed the feasibility of the proposed system as an assistive technology. We have made the source code publicly available at https://github.com/IS2AI/telegram-bot-chatgpt to stimulate the development of assistive systems for the visually impaired and blind.
Peripheries
Authors: Forte Giuseppina
Published: February 2023

Peripheries are processes and places in which conditions and actors constantly shift. The contingent forms of peripheries in this book are assembled around embodied identities and are rooted in specific genealogies: peripheries as urban fringes, periphery countries in the modern world-system theory, and peripheral urbanization. Through these genealogies, the heterogeneous forms of peripheries acquire layered meanings that decenter urban theory. Since no form can exist outside historical relations of power, it is critical to apply methodological approaches that can address the political agency emerging from embodied identities.
Femminielli and the city: urban space and non-binary gender identities in Naples
Authors: Cannella Fabrizia
Published: February 2023

This essay examines the interrelation between (peripheral) gender identity and (peripheral) urban space. The analysis focuses on the femminiello, a quintessentially Neapolitan non-binary subjectivity embodying a fluid sexual identity, performatively crossing across masculine and feminine, deeply connected to the territory where it originates—Naples’ inner city and its low-income historic neighborhoods. Accordingly, the essay looks at the material and immaterial interrelations between urban space and the femminiello identity. Methodologically, the study is built on a qualitative approach based mainly on fieldwork interviews with three of the most prominent femminielli of the Neapolitan context: CiroCiretta, a recognized exponent of the femminielli community and among the founders of a cultural association devoted to spreading and preserving the ancient femminiello culture; Tarantina Taran, an iconic local figure dubbed as “Naples’ last femminiello” in the city’s Spanish Quarters; and Loredana, activist and secretary of Naples’ Transsexual Association. The voices and stories of these three femminielli led us to read this non-binary gender identity in its relation to urban space, from different and complementary perspectives, which ultimately helped us trace a map of changing meaning and emerging forms of adaptation over time.

In recent years, stem cell therapy has become a very promising and complex scientific research topic. In the body, stem cells have the capacity to differentiate into a wide variety of cell types. They are capable to regenerate body system. Adult stem cells and embryonic stem cells are the two primary categories of stem cells. Through cell- replacement therapies, stem cell-based therapies can give the opportunity to replace lost, damaged, or old cells in order to regenerate or repair tissues and organs. Additionally, using genetically altered stem cells as delivery systems holds enormous potential for treating inherited genetic flaws and delivering therapeutic chemicals to specifically injured tissues and organs. The ensuing integration of science and medicine made possible by more research will enable the therapeutic application of ES cell technology. In the end, such a program might present a remarkable new weapon in the fight against human sickness.

Published: February 2023

Statement of the problem. Development of a practical calculation model of reinforced concrete structures in torsion with bending of square cross-sections, most fully reflecting the features of the actual work of the structures. Results. The bearing capacity criterion from the intensity of the limit deformations and projection diagrams of complex elastoplastic tensors of compressed concrete in the calculation model of reinforced concrete structures under the joint action of forces for the constructed bilinear spatial crack is obtained. The reactions from the deformation effect of concrete and reinforcement in a crack were determined using the deformation effect and a dual-console element. The hypothesis of relative angular deformations for deplanation and gradients in the fracture was proposed. Here crack opening is the accumulation of relative concentrated mutual displacements of reinforcement and concrete. Conclusions. In the spatial section, the limit deformations were obtained by projecting the diagram of complex elastoplastic tensors of compressed concrete. The internal stresses from the deformation effects of concrete and reinforcement in the crack were found. The article includes an important algorithm and numerical example.

The mechanisms of the Russian Federation’s domination in the regional and global security environment
Authors: Banasik Mirosław
Published: February 2023

The article explains the mechanisms leading to achieving the Russian Federation’s dominance in the regional and global security environment. To solve the research problems, a systemic approach was applied and methods of literary analysis and critique, non-participant observation, and uncategorized interviews were used. In the research process, it was established that the dominance of the Russian Federation in the international arena is based on force. The key factors enabling its achievement are displayed by the quantitative and qualitative superiority of the armed forces, expressed by force correlation coefficients, strategic forecasting, and operational prediction as well as the modern forms and methods of using armed forces. The Russian Federation balances the existing international disparities with the use of adaptive strategy, blackmail of conflict escalation with the use of nuclear weapons, modern and technologically advanced operational capabilities, and offensive asymmetric activities.
Africa at the Crossroads: An Overview of the Covid-19 Pandemic and its Drama in Tanzania
Authors: Mtani Fadhili A. , Ngohengo Jumanne
Published: February 2023

The outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic in Wuhan, China, in early 2019 has massively changed global lives. Diverse strategies led by WHO were put in place promptly for dealing with the situation at different global and individual levels. Africa as an integral part of the world, was not side-lined, despite the impact of the pandemic was not seriously felt compared to other continents. Since the Covid-19 declaration as one of the world’s most deadly diseases, the Tanzania government has taken paradoxical and exclusively apparent tactics to curb the disease, deviating from the scientific approach. The country relied on and insisted on traditional herbs as the best approach to tackle the situation where the political class led by example. This move was championed by late Tanzania’s president John Pombe Magufuli and his entire government officials before his departure despite some standing opposition. This piece of writing was produced to respond to the prompt change in trajectory, perceptions, and approaches towards the disease by the political class of the same government after Magufuli’s absence. Data deduced from speeches of government officials, published and unpublished records on the pandemic justify massive confusion to Tanzanians of different calibres. Both medical and nonmedical practitioners were at a crossroads with only the political class running the changing show. The findings concluded that the change of position of the government officials of the same incumbent political party had affected the current scientific approach insisted on by the government machines in Tanzania, which in turn created a divided community.

In everyday life, we interact with representatives of different strata of the indigenous population, and accordingly, automated gestures, facial expressions and emotions arise in a person. In addition, facial expressions of emotions are explained in detail. A person can control some emotions, but can not control others. Because it is related to internal processes such as secretory glands and blood circulation system. The article describes the researches and their results related to the given information.

The Puppet and the Puppeteer: Deconstructing the Historiography on King Carol II and Miron Cristea, the Romanian Orthodox Patriarch
Authors: Popa Ion
Published: February 2023

Miron Cristea was one of the most important and influential political actors
in interwar Romania. He became the first patriarch of the Orthodox Church
(1925), a member of the Regency (1927-1930), and was prime minister
of Romania from February 1938 until his passing on 6 March 1939. Most
historiography on that era overlooks Cristea’s power and influence, being
focused primarily on the Iron Guard and on several political players, such as King
Carol II, Armand Călinescu, Corneliu Codreanu, or Iuliu Maniu. This article
traces the origins of this minimisation, unearthing evidence of a process started
in the 1970s. It deconstructs the various layers of history writing about Carol
II’s regime, examining communist and post-communist motivations behind the
focus on some players (such as the king, his mistress – Elena Lupescu, or the
royal camarilla) and the deliberate forgetting of others, including Miron Cristea.
Historiography on Carol II and the royal dictatorship has seen some changes
since communist times, some of them analysed here, but the writing on Miron
Cristea has remained, for several reasons, largely unchallenged
Epurarea corpului didactic al Facultății de Medicină din Cluj în primul deceniu communist / Purging the teaching staff of the Faculty of Medicine in Cluj in the first communist decade
Authors: Grozav Victoria
Published: February 2023

The period of purges represented a dark page in the history of Romanian education and did not end on September 1, 1945, according to the provisions of Law no. 584/1945 regarding the purification of public administrations, but was continued in the following years, disguised under other political decisions. The Faculty of Medicine faced three waves of purges followed by periods of calm. After the first law on the purification of public administrations was passed (Law no. 461 published in the Official Gazette on September 19, 1944), many teachers were temporarily purged, others permanently, whereas others “arranged” their pension rights. This article discusses how the repressive state machine carried out the purges of teaching staff from Cluj medical
education establishments in the first communist decade, as well as the employment criteria in the fall of 1958. The paper analyses the social origin of the teaching staff. Social origin was an essential criterion of retention or exclusion from the education of students and teaching staff. Archival documents illustrate that in 1950, 42% of Cluj Medical-Pharmaceutical Institute (I.M.F.) teachers were party members. Four years later the rate of the Romanian Labourer Party (Partidul Muncitoresc Român – P.M.R.) teachers members increased to 50%. In 1959, this rate was 50%. This percentage of P.M.R. members in 1959 can be explained by the teaching staff ’s lack of interest in the party
policy, and the exclusion of some members from the party. Also, the article tries to decipher the local party bodies’ influence on the decisions made by the I.M.F. in the purifications.

Aim. The current study was aimed to analyze the etiology and the clinical spectrum of acute symptomatic seizures (ASS) and the predictors of in- hospital mortality in the elderly population. Methods. We evaluated ninety-four elderly (≥60 years of age) hospitalized patients with ASS for clinical profile, aetiologies and predictors of in-hospital mortality. Results. Mean age of onset of ASS was 67.63 ± 11.48 years. Main seizure type was focal seizure in 62 (59.7%) cases followed by tonic-clonic seizures in 30 (31.9%) cases. Most common aetiologies in ASS were stroke in 61.7% followed by infective cause in 30.9% of cases. In-hospital mortality in the ASS in the elderly was 21 (22.3%) in our series and the stroke was the most common cause of mortality. Conclusion. Stroke was the most common etiology of ASS in the elderly and was also related with mortality. It is necessary for us to analysis the causes of ASS in the elderly, in order to reduce the in-hospital mortality.

Around the world, there is a significant increase in the number of electric vehicles on the roads. Among the reasons are the aims to reduce the global dependency on oil as an energy source due to its political and economic dimensions especially for the non-oil producing countries by maximizing the use of electric vehicles. At the same time, it is also due to global concerns for the environmental aspect, especially global warming where transportation represents 30% of it. The battery is considered the main source of power for electric vehicles, but the battery tends to generate a significant amount of heat due to internal resistance during operation. The generated heat during the charging/discharging processes could lead to overheating in the battery which could end in battery failure. Therefore, dissipating the generated heat in the EV battery becomes essential through thermal management systems to ensure that the battery operates within a safe temperature range. Hence, the present study aims to introduce a new design of the liquid cooling system and also to investigate the effective parameter which affects its heat transfer performance. This paper is part of the overall study and describes the computational fluid dynamics by using ANSYS FLUENT software and numerical analysis to investigate the effect of the inlet/outlet arrangements on the heat transfer performance of a new LCP used for cooling the EV battery cell. There are three inlet/outlet arrangements: I-arrangement, Z-arrangement, and L-arrangement. The flow rate range of the present study is at the range of 0.4 – 1.6 l/min under 300 W heat flux. The L-arrangement has the best cooling performance compared to I-arrangement and Z-arrangement, where it achieves an average battery cell temperature which equals to 37.1 ⁰C along flow rates, while it is at 43.3 ⁰C and 38.0 ⁰C for I-arrangement and Z-arrangement, respectively. The temperature uniformity for both L-arrangement and Z-arrangement is almost similar, and they achieved good temperature uniformity at all flow rates, while I-arrangement failed to achieve good temperature uniformity at the lowest flow rates.

The study included the use of biofuel to reduce the percentage of environmental pollution caused by other environmentally polluting fuels that used in other studies. The current study presents investigations of CI engine performance and emissions at various engine speeds under constant engine load. The fuel under consideration in this work is biodiesel B30. A 2.4-liter, 16-valve, 4-cylinder engine with a compression ratio of 15.5:1 is used. Various inlet air temperatures (10 to 35°C with an increment of 5 degrees) are chosen to study their effects on engine performance and emissions. The results show that increasing the inlet air temperature increases brake explicit fuel feasting (BEFF) beside to nitrogen oxide (NOx), while decreasing the brake power and torque. In this scientific revision, a tentative analysis was conducted on a CI engine at various engine speeds and inlet air temperatures., The results were obtained at engine speeds of 2100 rpm at various engine loads and revealed an increase in BSFC of biodiesel blends (B20, B50, and B100) as injection pressure was increased.

Relation between Long-term Activity and Luminosity of the Pre- and Post-novae CT Ser and V446 Her
Authors: Šimon Vojtěch
Published: February 2023

We show a relation of the pre- and post-nova activity of CT Ser (nova 1948) and V446 Her (nova 1960), known to have remarkably similar orbital periods P
orb. We use both photographic and CCD photometric observations. Post-nova CT Ser shows a nova-like high-state activity with only a slight decrease of absolute magnitude M
opt. In the interpretation, its M
opt is above the region of the thermal-viscous instability (TVI) regime, so the disk is ionized out to its outer rim, similarly to before its classical nova (CN) outburst. On the contrary, V446 Her started its CN outburst from the TVI regime. Extensive changes in activity type in years after CN outburst were observed in V446 Her. The features consistent with the dwarf-nova outbursts appeared at most three decades after the end of the CN outburst. It suggests that its disk transitioned into the TVI region in that it was before its CN outburst. The pre-nova and post-nova states of activity did not change significantly for a given system, except for several decades after the CN outburst. Even pre-novae and post-novae with mutually similar P
orb, hence secondary star (donor) spectral types and dimensions and disk radii, can show largely discrepant M
opt and disk states in the similar epochs (several decades) surrounding the CN outburst.
