Beyond the Wave, the Sea: Re-assessing the Impact of the Economic Crisis on Southern Europe's Populist Upsurge
Authors: Borriello Arthur
Published: June 2021

The paper re-assesses the relation between the economic crisis and the rise of populist parties in the South of Europe. It argues that the former did not cause the latter directly, but rather played out as a catalyst of previously existing trends, i.e. the erosion of party democracy and the disintermediation of Western societies. It combines several theoretical approaches to advance an explanatory model that replaces the relation between crisis and populism – conceived of as political, performative and discursively mediated – within its structural pre-conditions. By doing so, it aims at providing a synthetic and steady explanation of the contemporary rise of populism in Southern Europe and beyond.

Intrvenous extension is one of the features of neoplastic process and is very characteristic for tumors of the kidneys and adrenal glands. However, reports about the penetration of adrenal metastases into the venous system are extremely rare. We have presented two case reports on intravenous extension of renal cell carcinoma adrenal metastases. One of them for the first time in worldwide literature presents intravenous extension of synchronous bilateral adrenal metastases RCC into inferior vena cava and left renal vein. The patient underwent bilateral adrenalectomy with the use of hormone replacement therapy and targeted therapy with pazopanib. MDCT after 2 and 6 months did not show tumor progression. Lungs metastases are reduced in size or remained unchanged. The patient does not complain. Blood pressure 110/70 mm Hg. Symptoms of Addison's disease are absent. In the second case, there was a metachronic contralateral metastasis of RCC, which penetrated through the right adrenal vein into the subhepatic section of the inferior vena cava. The patient underwent a right-sided adrenalectomy with thrombectomy. After 6 months multiple pulmonary metastases were identified. Pazopanib therapy has initiated. Three months later, tumor progression was revealed. The patient died after 5 months (14 months after surgery) from tumor intoxication. Although these cases are extremely rare (7 cases in the world literature), it is necessary to take into account possibility of presence of venous tumor thrombi with adrenal metastases. The incidence of this phenomenon of RCC is in the second place after hepatocellular carcinoma (15 cases). Organ-sparing surgical technique in these patients is not feasible. Targeted therapy along with hormone replacement therapy was not accompanied by increased side effects or exacerbation of adrenal insufficiency after removal of both adrenal glands.

We describe our experience of setting up and evaluating a community-based multi-disciplinary sleep service for children with neurodevelopmental disorders and psychosocial vulnerabilities.Referrals are accepted for children (1-18 years of age) with persistent sleep problems, and neurodevelopmental difficulties or significant psychosocial adversity, living in two inner-city boroughs.Holistic sleep assessment involves 1-hour Paediatrician-led consultation, often followed by Psychologist-led parent workshop, with follow-up telephone/face-to-face contacts to support implementation of behavioural interventions.Acceptability is measured through parent feedback; efficacy measured through Composite Sleep Disturbance Index, Sleep Problem rating, and locally developed Burden Score.Referrals for 354 children were received in the first two years.99% of families report the service met their child’s needs well/very well.Sleep studies were accessed for around a quarter of children.Medical and social complexity was common, and more prevalent in families who were less able to engage to completion of intervention (significant psychosocial vulnerability in 43.4% of suboptimally engaged, versus 22.7% of engaged group).Clinical outcome measure scores improved for a subset of families in whom data was available, who had been able to engage in the intervention.There has been a high demand for our community-based multi-disciplinary sleep service, with positive feedback from families.Intervention has resulted in positive impacts on sleep outcome measures for those engaged.There continue to be barriers to accessing intervention, and putting in place recommendations, for some families which requires further evaluation and potential service development. We believe the community-based multi-disciplinary model of this service could be readily replicated in other localities to benefit sleep health on a wider scale.
A New Progress in Random Hydrodynamic Lubrication for Movable Non-Rotational Curvilinear Biosurfaces with Phospholipid Bilayers
Authors:   WSG Bydgoszcz University Garbary 2, Bydgoszcz, Poland, Wierzcholski Krzysztof
Published: June 2021

This paper aims to highlight the result of a new progression of mathematical estimation methods of stochastic bio-hydrodynamic lubrication parameters for arbitrary, curvilinear, non-rotational, co-operating, living biological surfaces coated with phospholipid bi-layers. Movable, non-rotational, co-operating surfaces occur in various biological friction nods like the collar bone, the blade bone, the jump joint, and the wrist joint. Specifically, the author presents a synthetic and comprehensive estimation of stochastic bio-hydrodynamic lubrication parameters for co-operating, rotational cartilage bio-surfaces with phospholipid bi-layers occurring in human spherical hip joints and cylindrical elbow joints. The method of research discussed in this paper focuses on a review of stochastic analytical considerations performed by the author. This research is based on the measurements of the gap height between two movable, non-rotational bio-surfaces. The gap is restricted between two co-operating biological surfaces. After several experiments, it could be inferred that there are symmetric as well as asymmetric random increments and decrements in the gap height. Such changes are applicable to the hydrodynamic pressure, load-carrying capacity, friction forces, and wear of the co-operating biological surfaces in human friction nods and contacts. The prime purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the influence of variations in the expected values and standard deviation of the gap height on the hydrodynamic lubrication parameters that occur during the friction process. It can thus be concluded that the apparent dynamic viscosity of biological lubricant varies in the ultra-thin gap height direction, depending on the susceptibility of the superficial layer of the lubricated bio-surface. The results presented in this paper are obtained considering the 3D variations in the dynamic viscosity of the biological fluid, particularly the random variations crosswise the film thickness in non-Newtonian biological fluid properties.
Effect of a Consumer-Focused Website for Low Back Pain on Health Literacy, Treatment Choices, and Clinical Outcomes: Randomized Controlled Trial
Authors: Hodges Paul William , Hall Leanne , Setchell Jenny , French Simon , Kasza Jessica , Bennell Kim , Hunter David , Vicenzino Bill , Crofts Samuel , Dickson Chris , Ferreira Manuela
Published: June 2021

Background

The internet is used for information related to health conditions, including low back pain (LBP), but most LBP websites provide inaccurate information. Few studies have investigated the effectiveness of internet resources in changing health literacy or treatment choices.

Objective

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the MyBackPain website compared with unguided internet use on health literacy, choice of treatments, and clinical outcomes in people with LBP.

Methods

This was a pragmatic, web-based, participant- and assessor-blinded randomized trial of individuals with LBP stratified by duration. Participants were randomly allocated to have access to the evidence-based MyBackPain website, which was designed with input from consumers and expert consensus or unguided internet use. The coprimary outcomes were two dimensions of the Health Literacy Questionnaire (dimension 2: “having sufficient information to manage my health;” dimension 3: “actively managing my health;” converted to scores 1-100) at 3 months. Secondary outcomes included additional Health Literacy Questionnaire dimensions, quality of treatment choices, and clinical outcomes.

Results

A total of 453 participants were recruited, and 321 (70.9%) completed the primary outcomes. Access to MyBackPain was not superior to unguided internet use on primary outcomes (dimension 2: mean difference −0.87 units, 95% CI −3.56 to 1.82; dimension 3: mean difference −0.41 units, 95% CI −2.78 to 1.96). Between-group differences in other secondary outcomes had inconsistent directions and were unlikely to be clinically important, although a small improvement of unclear importance in the quality of stated treatment choices at 1 month was found (mean difference 0.93 units, 95% CI 0.03 to 1.84).

Conclusions

MyBackPain was not superior to unguided internet use for health literacy, but data suggest some short-term improvement in treatment choices. Future research should investigate if greater interactivity and engagement with the website may enhance its impact.

Character Chatbot - A Conversational AI Chatbot which can alter its Character according to User Specifications
Authors: Malhotra Aanchal
Published: June 2021

A chatbot is a type of AI software, developed for the purpose of simulating a conversation with the user. They converse in natural language via messaging applications, websites, or any other form of communication platform. Some chatbots use extensive word-classification processes, Natural Language processors, and sophisticated AI, while others simply scan for general keywords and generate responses using common phrases obtained from an associated library or database. In our project, we have developed a model where the user can create a chatbot specific to a character. The user will be able to interact with the chatbot by giving it a few personality traits and the chatbot will be able to hold a conversation accordingly. If a personality is not specified then the chatbot has been given a default character - ‘Joey’ from the T.V. show ‘Friends’. We did this by using Simple Transformers Model along with the pre-trained model provided by Hugging Face. This includes the training dataset for various personality traits; but since we decided to give the chatbot a unique default character, we trained the model and fine-tuned it to a dataset we created ourselves in the same JSON format from every episode’s script of the show. Lastly, we used Tkinter package to build the GUI for the chatbot and connected it to our trained model and the chatbot was ready to chat

In this paper, the idea of queuing theory is adopted to model about practical problems like filling the admission form in colleges. The COVID-19 pandemic and resulting economic crisis has bought unprecedented challenges to higher education. The COVID-19 pandemic has left students and colleges struggling. The COVID-19 pandemic bought extraordinary disruption to the education landscape with the campuses everywhere almost overnight. This method can be extended to larger scales and would provide better idea of how to fill admission form in colleges while during the pandemic period COVID-19 is very essential in saving me, saving money and energy.
Advance Attendance Calculation for Employees using QR Scan and Location Verification
Authors: Bajpayi Rishabh
Published: June 2021

In this era of technology smartphones play a significant role in our day to day life . The popularity of smartphones has increased over the years. This could change and speed up the attendance taking process in society. The current attendance system is time consuming and requires lots of manual workload[19]. This paper discusses the development of the Attendance calculation system for everyone in society whether schools, hotels, gyms, pubs, etc. This is all in one solution for measuring attendance, then salary and solving many problems in the proposed work. The proposed system is a couple of two applications, one for managing the staff details and the second application for taking the attendance by making employees account and giving access to mark their attendance individually. Every organisation whether government or private uses an information system[2.] to store data of their staff. However, in India it is found that many small scale industries use pen and paper to keep a record. However, there are many advanced technology systems available that can do this work but they all are costly for these low level industries. This paper discusses making a system for solving problems for them at a cheaper cost. This system will mark attendance of each employee and calculate the salary of them at the end of month. It also calculates overtime and total working hours of each employee. As in small scale each company has their own holidays preference and variable week off for employees, so all this power is given to the employer to manage holidays and week days of each employee separately. It saves lots of time and has no error in pay calculation hence preventing clashes between HR Team and employees. So that both employer and employee can focus on their work to develop their company.
Non-Newtonian Fluid Speed Breaker
Authors: Parmar Mahesh M.
Published: June 2021

Speed bumps, as traffic calming devices, have been extensively used to reduce traffic speed on local streets. This study represents a unique application of Non-Newtonian fluid as Speed Bump. This technical paper relates to a device that reduces the speed of any over speeding vehicles travelling on a roadway. It is formed by a flexible material which consist of Non-Newtonian fluid in it i.e. each receptacle is impregnated with a dilatants shear thickening fluid. The material is placed under compression during impact when the vehicle strikes it and the fluid itself acts as means for controlling the resistance to deformation of the strip. Thus, if the vehicle travels at a low speed the fluid has a low viscosity and the strip is easily deformed, whereas if the speed of the vehicle is high the viscosity of the fluid is high and as a result has great resistance to deformation, thus forming a rigid obstacle to the passage of the vehicle. Drivers must always slow down when driving over the conventional speed breakers to prevent damage to their vehicle. However, the Non-Newtonian fluid Speed Breaker is sensitive to the speed of the vehicle. The vehicle needs to slow down only if it is over speeding.

The objective was to evaluate the inclusion level of licuri cake (LC) in the diet of confined cows on fatty acid profile and milk cholesterol. Four cows with a blood level of ½ to ¾ Holstein x Zebu blood were used, distributed in a 4 x 4 Latin square, where the inclusion levels of the cake in the total diet were 0.0, 5.5, 11.0 and 16.5%, replacing soybean meal in the diet. There was a linear decreasing effect for the fatty acids Lauric, Elaidic, Gamma-Linolenic and conjugated linoleic acid isomers (C18:2cis9trans11; C18:2trans10cis12) from the inclusion levels of LC. The inclusion of licuri cake negatively influenced the concentrations of polyunsaturated fatty acids and conjugated linoleic acid isomers, in addition to the fatty acids of the Omega-6 series, which is not interesting from the human nutrition point of view.

El objetivo del trabajo fue determinar la presencia del PVB en muestras de tejidos de bovinos con lesiones cutáneas sugerentes de papilomas, fibromas y fibropapilomas en unidades de producción de ganado bovino en el estado de San Luis Potosí. Obtuvimos biopsias de piel de bovino con lesiones sugerentes de papilomas, fibropapilomas y carcinomas de células escamosas. Estas muestras se procesaron mediante histopatología y se realizó extracción de ADN para la detección del Papilomavirus Bovino mediante PCR con los Oligonucleótidos FAP59/FAP64 y MY09/MY11. Las lesiones se clasificaron en fibromas (45.45 %) y fibropapilomas (54.54%) sin que se observara distribución de un tipo de lesión especifica de acuerdo a la localización anatómica, edad, sistema de producción o fin zootécnico. 72.72 % (n=8) de las muestras mostraron resultados positivos para PVB mediante PCR; 45.45 % (n=5) con los oligos FAP y 54.54 % (n=6) con los oligos MY. No encontramos asociación estadísticamente significativa entre la presencia de PVB y la raza de los bovinos, edad o sistema de producción. Hasta donde sabemos, este es el primer estudio que describe la prevalencia de PVB en el estado de San Luis Potosí, por lo que estos resultados aportan datos útiles para establecer medidas de detección y control necesarias para mejorar las condiciones zoosanitarias de los animales.
Quantum marginal problem and incompatibility
Authors: Haapasalo Erkka , Kraft Tristan , Miklin Nikolai , Uola Roope
Published: June 2021

One of the basic distinctions between classical and quantum mechanics is the existence of fundamentally incompatible quantities. Such quantities are present on all levels of quantum objects: states, measurements, quantum channels, and even higher order dynamics. In this manuscript, we show that two seemingly different aspects of quantum incompatibility: the quantum marginal problem of states and the incompatibility on the level of quantum channels are in many-to-one correspondence. Importantly, as incompatibility of measurements is a special case of the latter, it also forms an instance of the quantum marginal problem. The generality of the connection is harnessed by solving the marginal problem for Gaussian and Bell diagonal states, as well as for pure states under depolarizing noise. Furthermore, we derive entropic criteria for channel compatibility, and develop a converging hierarchy of semi-definite programs for quantifying the strength of quantum memories.
Модернизация планировочной организации сельских поселений
Authors: Петрова Зоя
Published: June 2021

Статья посвящена исследованию проблемы возрождения сельских поселений, включая исследования их архитектурно­планировочной организации c применением инновационных инженерных систем. Исследования проводились на основе анализа комплекса современных социальных, природно-экологических, экономических, инженерно-технологических факторов; а также анализа отечественного и зарубежного опыта планировочной организации сельских поселений. Исследование ограничено проблематикой архитектурно-планировочной организации застройки в сельскохозяй­ственных поселениях с жильем для постоянного проживания людей в условиях климата умеренного пояса Центрального федерального округа России. Основная цель государствен­ной аграрной политики состоит в формировании модели устойчивого и эффективного развития сельского хозяйства и сельских территорий в соответствии с принятой в 2019 году государственной программой «Комплексное развитие сельских территорий» на период до 2025 года. На основе анализа комплекса современных факторов, отечественного и зарубежного опыта создания сельских поселений установ­лена целесообразность модернизации архитектурно-плани­ровочной организации сельских поселений c сохранением традиционных систем расселения, приёмов планировки. Для сбалансированного и равномерного развития территорий об­ласти следует создавать как крупные, так средние и мелкие сельскохозяйственные производства. В связи с этим в градо­строительном планировании и развитии территорий сельских поселений автором предлагается современная структура сельских населённых пунктов: агрогород, село, деревня, хутор и пустошь. Рекомендуется в сельских поселениях применять малоэтажную преимущественно усадебную застройку с лич­ным подсобным хозяйством, предусматривать организацию системы культурно-бытового обслуживания.
Новые жилые кварталы Еревана
Authors: Арутюнян Мартин
Published: June 2021

Начатые в 2010 году в Ереване широкомасштабные работы по строительству жилых зданий постепенно пере­местились в пригороды Еревана.

После обретения независимости в Армении отмечал­ся всплеск строительства многоквартирных домов, что придало новое дыхание как градостроительству, так и экономике Армении, однако в то же время нарушило градо­строительную и архитектурную среду Еревана. Это вызвало необходимость расширения города в пригородные районы, застраивания их новыми жилыми домами, которые стали существенно отличаться от многоквартирных высокоэтажных зданий. С 2015 года в пригородах Еревана были постро­ены ряд жилых кварталов, по своей концепции похожих на европейские и американские коттеджные поселки, или таунхаусы. Сейчас в Ереване ситуация такова, что назрела необходимость пересмотра градостроительной концепции города, учитывающей активное городское строительство.
Нематериальное культурное наследие как предмет охраны исторического поселения: размышления о предмете охраны
Authors: Шевченко Элеонора
Published: June 2021

Рассматривается вопрос правомерности и необходимости внедрения понятия «нематериальное культурное наследие» в предмет охраны исторического поселения. Одновременно ана­лизируется правомерность распространения понятия «предмет охраны» на исторические поселения. Анализируется формули­ровка понятия «нематериальное культурное наследие», принятая на Генеральной конференции ЮНЕСКО в 2003 году (конвенция «Об охране нематериального культурном наследии»). В статье отмечается некоторая некорректность принятого докумен­та. В частности, в Конвенции при перечислении областей, в которых проявляется нематериальное наследие, отсутствует указание на носителей «культурных пространств...», которые приведены в определении понятия «нематериальное культур­ное наследие». Введённое в качестве одного из показателей нематериального наследия «культурное пространство» при­менительно к поселению ассоциируется с понятием «предмет охраны», одним из показателей исторического поселения.

Рассматривается само понятие «предмет охраны», позаим­ствованное у объектов культурного наследия. Отмечается, что споры среди специалистов о понятии «предмет охраны» идут до сих пор, но они не затрагивают предмета охраны истори­ческого поселения. Создаётся впечатление, что к нему (пред­мету охраны поселения) нет претензий, и это - когда пере­кладывание критериев с ОКН (объект культурного наследия) на населённый пункт (поселение) категорически неверно и просто неграмотно. Конечно, в видах ОКН присутствует такой крупный территориальный объект как достопримечательное место (далее ДМ), что и позволило законодателю, сделать столь некорректную запись в законодательном акте.

На основании проведённого исследования делается вы­вод, что нематериальное культурное наследие в историческом поселении должно быть признано предметом его охраны и войти в число других градоформирующих признаков исто­рического поселения.

Selective activation of TRPA1 ion channel by skin sensitizer nitrobenzene DNFB
Authors: Wu Han , Qu Yaxuan , Sun Xiaoying , Wang Kewei
Published: June 2021

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Chemical 2, 4-dinitrofluorobenzene (DNFB),
commonly called as Sanger’s reagent, is well known as skin sensitizer to
cause dermatitis. However, how the DNFB causes skin inflammation remains
unknown. In this study we aimed at identifying the molecular target that
DNFB acts on. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH: We used a fluorescent calcium
imaging plate reader as an initial screening assay and patch-clamp
recordings for validation. Molecular docking in combination with
site-directed mutagenesis was carried out to investigate DNFB binding
sites in TRPA1 ion channel. KEY RESULTS: We found the chemical DNFB that
selectively activates TRPA1 channel with EC50 of 2.36 ± 0.26 µM.
Single-channel recording reveals that DNFB increases the channel open
probability and acts on three residues C621, Y658 and E625 critical for
DNFB-mediated TRPA1 activation. CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATIONS: Our
findings not only explain a molecular mechanism underlying the
dermatitis and pruritus caused by chemical DNFB, but also provides a
molecular tool that is 7.5-time more potent than current AITC molecule
and can be used for elucidating TRPA1 channel pharmacology and
pathology.
Internet Campaigning in an Unfamiliar Context: A Study of the Internet Campaigns of the Two Major Political Parties in the 2015 Nigerian Presidential Election
Authors:   , Aganaba Bibobra
Published: June 2021

This thesis addresses the following research question: How can we best understand the effects of internet campaigning on the campaign practices of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) and the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the 2015 Nigerian Presidential election? This research represents an important contribution to the broader study of internet campaigning; widening the theoretical and empirical scope of the literature. From a theoretical perspective, three major approaches are deployed across the thesis: modernisation, Americanisation, and hybridisation. While all three lenses play an important part in understanding the effect of the internet on Nigerian campaign practices, the hybridisation perspective is particularly important – pointing towards a broader need in the literature to integrate this theoretical emphasis. From an empirical perspective, over 50 original, elite interviews in Nigeria were conducted with members of both parties’ campaign teams and campaign consultants. In analysing these data, the thesis unpacks three sub-questions: How was internet campaigning adopted and adapted by the campaign teams? What factors help to explain variations in the internet campaigns practices of the presidential candidates of the PDP and APC? How did the internet affect the intra-campaign organisational dynamics of the presidential candidates of the PDP and APC? The analysis across these questions concludes that the importance of the 2015 Nigerian online campaign should not be underestimated – it clearly impacted on campaign practices and organisation. However, the nature of this impact falls far short of a full realisation of the potential impact that the web could have exerted. Understanding this reality requires that close attention be paid to the national and party contexts within which internet campaigning was adopted – meaning that a hybridisation perspective is central to explaining how the internet impacts campaign practices in states such as Nigeria.

A series of catalysts with the deactivated external surface on the basis of HZSM-5 have been prepared by extracting aluminium atoms from zeolite crystals or by covering this zeolite surface by the products of tetraethoxysilane thermal destruction. The external surface deactivation has been found to be not the main factor of increasing the para-selectivity in the reaction of toluene to benzene and p-xylene disproportionation: decreasing the diffusion of o- and p-xylene from the catalyst pores on the external surface of zeolite crystals seems to be as the determinant.
The Understanding of Islamic Thought as an Ideology and Methodology for the Indonesian Millennial Generation
Authors: Sifatu WA Ode
Published: June 2021

This social study discussed the understanding of Islamic thought as a religious ideology and scientific methodology for the young Muslim generation who live, study, and work in a millennial time. There are many accusations and claims that Islam is a religion that only takes care of matters of religious ideology and worship and puts aside scientific and intellectual methodologies so that Islam is problematic to describe in the current context of the digital era by millennial generations in Indonesia as a country that is a big home for the world's largest Muslim adherents. To answer the above problems, we try to collect related literature. Then we study the phenomenological approach under the description of qualitative research design the work "Phenomenology in qualitative educational research: Philosophy as science or philosophical science." Next, the data will be checked and discussed, the original code created, the code reviewed, and all relevant themes reviewed. Finally, we get data findings that we believe are valid and reliable because we have answered the study questions with the appropriate method for review studies. The finding that Islam as a religion certainly has an ideology as a friendly religion to all human beings who rely on the truth. This truth, which Islam owned, can be understood and practiced with a methodological approach based on the holy Kalam Quran and Hadith

Authors: Tevdoy-Bourmouli A. I.
Published: June 2021

The latest cycle of the European Union enlargement generated a panoply of problems unknown of in the anamnesis of this organisation. Specific historic experience of the applicants pre-determined a considerable specialty of west-European fashioned democratic regimes in those countries, weakness of consensus and tolerance culture which has already rooted itself in the West-European society, and which has to a considerable degree secured stable development of Western Europe over the last decades. This constellation resulted particularly in the renaissance on the level of European establishment of the nationalist phobia and memories deeply buried decades ago. Though the scale of the eventual problems was evident to the EU leaders long before the official entry of Central and East-European (CEE) countries to the European Union, it neither blocked the admission of new members nor entailed a refusal to pursue the plans of further enlargement at the time when Brussels’ fears have panned out.
