Methods of construction of Mongolian temples: architectural and semantic aspects
Authors: Белокурова С.М. , Онуфриенко Д.Е.
Published: September 2024

В статье представлен анализ метода проектирования монгольских храмов, основанного на модульной системе юрты, разработанной Банзрагчийн Даажавом. Авторы изучают предложенный монгольским архитектором принцип в аспекте проектирования и релевантности традиционным мировоззренческим представлениям монголов, которые выражены в учении о взаимодействии двух полярных начал — арга билиг. Исследование связано с применением данного метода к различным архитектурным объектам — как небольшим храмовым сооружениям, так и крупным комплексам, таким как Гандан. Детально рассматриваются геометрические формы, построенные на основе окружностей, и подчеркивается их значимость для анализа архитектурных пропорций. Выявлено значительное совпадение между модулем юрты и основными элементами храмов, полное совпадение семантических узлов этих строений, что подтверждает универсальность предложенного метода и его эффективность в проектировании. Результаты исследования открывают новые перспективы для изучения культовых сооружений Монголии и подтверждают уникальность традиционной геометрии в архитектурной практике.

The article presents an analysis of the Mongolian temple construction method, with a particular focus on the modular yurt system developed by Banzragchiin Daajav. The authors examine the principle put forth by the Mongolian architect in terms of design and construction and relevance to the traditional world-views of Mongolians, which are expressed in the doctrine of the interaction of two polar beginnings — arga bilig. The study pertains to the implementation of this method in a range of architectural structures, encompassing both modest temple edifices and expansive complexes such as Gandan. The article examines in detail the geometric shapes built on the basis of circles and emphasizes their importance for the analysis of architectural proportions. The results of the study reveal a significant coincidence between the yurt module and the main elements of the temples, with a complete alignment of the semantic nodes of these structures. This substantiates the universality of the proposed method and its efficacy in design and planning. The results of the study offer novel insights into the study of architectural objects in Mongolia and confirms the uniqueness of traditional geometry in architectural practice.

New underwater image enhancement technique using single scale retinex and CNN fusion
Authors: Benaida Ouafa , Loukil Abdelhamid , Pacha Adda Ali
Published: September 2024

Improving the quality of underwater images remains a significant challenge for the scientific community due to high color distortion, low contrast, and limited visibility. To address these issues, our study introduces a new methodology integrating the Single Scale Retinex (SSR) algorithm with a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) to enhance underwater image quality. Our approach employs a unique dual-input CNN architecture, utilizing both the raw image and its SSR-enhanced version as inputs. The process begins with applying the SSR algorithm to the raw images. The resulting SSR-enhanced image is then concatenated with the CNN's first and second convolutional blocks, enhancing feature representation at these stages. A fusion strategy is also introduced where the raw image input is concatenated with the output of the third convolutional block. This tactic preserves crucial low-level details while incorporating enriched representations from the SSR-enhanced images at key points in the CNN structure. We developed this methodology to validate the integration of classical image enhancement techniques with modern deep-learning methods, achieving substantial improvements. Extensive evaluations of the widely used UIEB and EUVP underwater image databases demonstrate significant improvements in contrast, illumination, and overall image quality metrics. Our model achieved a PSNR of 23.50, SSIM of 0.92, and IUQM of 0.97 with a processing time of 0.28 seconds, outperforming state-of-the-art methods such as Ucolor (PSNR 21.86, SSIM 0.89) and WaterNet (PSNR 19.81, SSIM 0.86) in terms of image quality and processing efficiency. Compared to other techniques, our proposed methodology shows promising results in enhancing underwater image quality, with potential applications across various underwater imaging scenarios.

Anxiety in children can significantly impact the dental treatment process, making it essential to understand the factors contributing to this anxiety and its effects on treatment outcomes. This study explores the relationship between the level of anxiety in pediatric patients during dental care and the success of treatment at the Nala Husada Dental and Oral Health Teaching Hospital (RSGM-P). The study employed an observational analytic design with a cross-sectional approach, involving 35 children aged 6-12 years who underwent dental treatment at RSGM-P Nala Husada. Anxiety levels were measured using the CFSS-DS method, with scores ranging from 15 to 45, categorized into three levels: very anxious, anxious, and not anxious. Data analysis was conducted using the Spearman correlation test to examine the relationship between anxiety levels and treatment success. The results showed that the majority of pediatric patients had low levels of anxiety (54.3% not anxious), and the treatment success rate was 71.4%. The correlation analysis revealed a significant relationship between anxiety levels and treatment success (Sig. (2-tailed) < 0.05), indicating that lower anxiety levels are associated with higher success rates in pediatric dental care. This study underscores the importance of managing anxiety in children to improve dental treatment outcomes, as well as the crucial role of effective communication between dentists and pediatric patients in reducing anxiety.

Jejunal diverticular bleeding is a rare but potentially life-threatening condition, particularly in elderly patients with underlying comorbidities such as cardiovascular disease. It can be challenging to diagnose and treat, which can delay diagnosis and lead to unsatisfactory clinical outcomes. Even with the advancements in endoscopic technology, conventional surgical intervention remains the standard for the treatment of jejunal diverticular bleeding. We report a case of a 70-year-old woman with underlying coronary artery disease on anticoagulant and antiplatelet therapy and underlying hypertension, presenting with recurrent melena and painless hematochezia, accompanied by hypovolemic shock. Despite conservative management and extensive diagnostic workup, the bleeding source remained unidentified until surgical intervention. This case highlights the challenges in diagnosing jejunal diverticular bleeding and the effectiveness of laparotomy with enterotomy and retrograde intraoperative endoscopy in its management.

Paraneoplastic pemphigus (PNP) is a rare and often fatal autoimmune blistering disorder associated with underlying malignancies, most commonly lymphoproliferative diseases. The condition is characterized by a complex interplay of immunological mechanisms that lead to a distinctive clinical presentation, including severe mucocutaneous lesions and a polymorphic skin eruption. The pathophysiology of PNP involves autoantibodies targeting desmosomal and hemidesmosomal proteins, as well as other epithelial adhesion molecules, resulting in widespread acantholysis and inflammation. Diagnosing PNP poses significant challenges due to its overlapping features with other pemphigus variants and autoimmune blistering diseases, necessitating a combination of clinical, histopathological, immunofluorescence, and serological evaluations. Therapeutic strategies for PNP are equally complex, requiring a multidisciplinary approach that addresses both the underlying malignancy and the severe autoimmune response. Despite advances in understanding the molecular underpinnings of PNP, the prognosis remains poor, with high mortality rates attributed to complications such as infections, respiratory failure, and the progression of the associated neoplasm. This review provides an in-depth analysis of the current knowledge on the pathophysiology, clinical manifestations, diagnostic challenges, and therapeutic approaches in paraneoplastic pemphigus, highlighting the need for early recognition and tailored treatment strategies to improve patient outcomes.

Diarrhea is a complication in critically ill patients, contributing to increased morbidity and healthcare costs. It is often multifactorial in origin, arising from infections, enteral nutrition, medications (especially antibiotics), and altered immunity and gastrointestinal function due to critical illness. Diarrhea in these patients can exacerbate fluid and electrolyte imbalances, increase the risk of skin breakdown, and contribute to malnutrition. Identifying the underlying etiology is essential for targeted management. Diagnostic approaches typically include stool cultures, assessments for Clostridium difficile infection, and evaluation of medication-related causes. Treatment involves supportive care, such as fluid and electrolyte replacement, modifying enteral nutrition, and judicious use of anti-diarrheal agents when appropriate. Preventative strategies, such as the careful use of antibiotics and probiotics, may reduce the incidence of diarrhea in critically ill patients. Addressing diarrhea effectively requires a multidisciplinary approach to reduce complications and improve patient outcomes in the critical care setting.

Summary Traumatic osteochondral fractures in pediatric patients are associated with patellofemoral dislocations in a high percentage (18–75%). Clinical presentation is variable, so maintaining a high index of clinical suspicion is important for better diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes. Accordingly, we present the case of a 12-year-old patient with an osteochondral fracture of the patella associated with a patellofemoral dislocation. The treatment was surgical, involving osteosynthesis with HCS screws, resulting in an excellent functional outcome at 3 years of follow-up.

While some developmental psychologists see child development as a process of discontinuous change, in which children gain skill through a series of leaps interspersed with quiet, incremental changes, others see it as a process of con tinuous change in which child ren become increasingly skilled at what they do. It is noteworthy that several productive steps have been made in further describing child development. This paper aims to discuss the developmental domains of 5 and 6 years old children from developmental p sychology perspective. Hence, it aims to investigate the idea of early childhood development and to outline the ideas, conceptualizations, and important viewpoints on the subject matter. Additionally, this paper presents t he developmental manifestations o f 5 and 6 year olds based on many theories in an effort to educate readers about these ideas and inspire them to learn more about their development. The study highlights the significance of early childhood development as w ell as the general significance of developmental phases and levels for attitudes and functioning in daily life.

Nowadays, like other language units, lexical and terminological units play an important role in shaping the global information environment. Based on this feature, information is formed and enriched in the orbit of a single terminological and informative function. A linguistic phenomenon that has both a lexical and terminological nature is undoubtedly considered typical of scientific speech. The nature of information in a literary text leads to the creation of new lexical and terminological units. Depending on the change in information, new lexical and terminological units are included in the text every time. The article discusses the types of information (intellectual, mental), emotional, etc. The problems of presenting certain types of information by lexical and terminological means are highlighted, the ways of presenting scientific information in dictionaries and scientific works are solved, and the degree of information provision by individual industry terms is explained. It also reveals new potential meanings of informative terms, and thus reveals the meaning of terminological units in this area, which are an important tool for scientific thinking.
