Digitalization of Global Society: From the Emerging Social Reality to its Sociological Conceptualisation
Authors: VASILENKO Liudmila , MESHCHERYAKOVA Nataliya , ZOTOV Vitaly
Published: March 2022

The purpose of the article is to consider three important issues from the point of view of synergetic theory: global digitalization of society, digitalization of public administration and sociology of digital society.
We consider that the new trend of informatization, which replaced computerization, internetization and networkization, should be recognized as digitalization as the creation of digital network platforms that have analytical and predictive functions.
In the process of studying the global digital society, two main questions will be asked: How is it different from the previous stage of information society? What problems of its development await us in the future? The authors reveal the last question with a scenario approach, denoting both a positive and an ambiguous perspective for the development of a digital society.
The authors point to the need for the purposeful formation of social institutions in a digital society due to the complexity of the ongoing self-organizing processes.
Consideration of the sociology of digital society begins with methodological problems associated with the study of a complex hybrid system due to the unification of real and virtual social spaces, the emergence of techno-subjects and some experience in the use of digital tools in sociology, allowing to work with interactive dynamic data.

The agricultural sector is one of the aspects that was affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, this study aims to describe the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on agroforestry farmers’ livelihoods in rural areas. It was carried out in Tasikmalaya Regency, East Priangan, where mixed garden agroforestry farming supports part of the economic life of the community. The data used were collected between August and September 2021 by interviewing 33 farmer households. A coding and descriptive analysis were carried out to discuss the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on agroforestry farmers and their strategies. Subsequently, the cost-income, revenue cost ratio, and labor productivity analyses were used to assess the feasibility of agroforestry farming before and during the pandemic. The results showed that government policies related to handling the pandemic in form of Large-Scale Social Restrictions (PSBB) and the Implementation of Community Activity Restrictions (PPKM) significantly affected the lives of farmers. These include decreased demand and commodity selling prices, difficulties in marketing agroforestry products, and a decrease in farmers' incomes by 38.45%. The agroforestry business has become less viable due to a reduction in farm productivity from R/C 1.1 before the pandemic to 0.85 during the pandemic, while farmer labor productivity decreased from US$ 3.00 to US$ 2.10. The farmers used direct cash assistance from the government and processed agroforestry products for sale and consumption as a survival strategy during the pandemic. Meanwhile, the government can help agroforestry farmers by increasing road access to rural areas, providing fertilizer and superior seeds, and also optimizing the role of livestock farmer groups.

Authors: San Martín Peña Joel , Picabea Arburu Jon Mikel
Published: March 2022

El principal objetivo de esta revisión sistemática fue conocer propuestas de trabajo que puedan reducir el índice de lesiones de tren inferior en baloncesto. En este trabajo se revisaron artículos procedentes de las bases de datos Pubmed y Google Scholar. Los resultados mostraron que las propuestas de entrenamiento realizadas para reducir el índice lesional en rodilla (Tendón rotuliano y LCA) y tobillo, fueron efectivas en las diferentes categorías de baloncesto sobre las que fueron ejecutadas. Además, se mostró la efectividad de programas de calentamiento diseñados para otros deportes (FIFA 11+) en esta modalidad. Sin embargo, no se demostró una evidencia concreta sobre cuál de estas propuestas es más efectiva a la hora de evitar lesiones en el tren inferior. Por lo tanto, sería interesante realizar futuros estudios en los que, bajo las mismas circunstancias, se comparen diferentes plantes de trabajo, con el fin de encontrar cuál es el más adecuado.

The diagnostic ability of the Fränkel manoeuvre in detecting mandibular versus maxillary involvement in subjects with a class II discrepancy
Authors: Ahrari Farzaneh , Forouzesh Azin , Shafaee Hooman
Published: March 2022

Objective

This study aimed to evaluate the ability of the Fränkel manoeuvre to identify the contributing jaw to a class II malocclusion.

Methods

This cross-sectional study examined 37 subjects (age range 9–13 years) who presented with a class II malocclusion and an overjet greater than 6 mm. Two profile photographs were taken of each patient, one in centric relation, and the other after executing the Fränkel manoeuvre to generate a canine and molar class I relationship. The photographs were distributed to two groups of judges who included 20 general dentists and 20 orthodontists. The level of profile aesthetics before (T0) and after (T1) the manoeuvre was determined using a 100-mm visual analogue scale, and a score of “profile improvement” was determined as T1 minus T0. The diagnostic ability of the Fränkel manoeuvre was calculated against lateral cephalometry as the reference standard, using the receiver operative characteristics (ROC) analysis.

Results

Twenty-six subjects had mandibular retrusion and 11 showed mandibular retrusion combined with maxillary prominence. The improvement score after the manoeuvre was significantly greater in subjects who showed a one-jaw than those with a two-jaw involvement (P < 0.05). In cases that showed an improvement score ≥ 9 as judged by general dentists, or ≥ 17 as judged by orthodontists, the class II discrepancy mainly resulted from mandibular retrusion. The correspondingly lower improvement scores indicated that maxillary prognathism was involved in the class II discrepancy.

Conclusion

The Fränkel manoeuvre was an effective clinical method for diagnosing the contributing jaw in class II malocclusion patients.
Are facial, maxillary arch and incisor dimensions related in patients with a unilaterally impacted palatal canine? A prospective investigation
Authors: Koshak Lamis K. , Millett Declan T. , Kelly Niamh , McIntyre Grant T. , Cronin Michael S.
Published: March 2022

Objective

To identify and determine the relationship between facial, maxillary arch and incisor dimensions of patients presenting with a unilaterally impacted palatal canine.

Methods

Prospective referrals over one calendar year of patients identified with a unilaterally impacted palatal canine were compared with prospectively recruited control subjects. Canine location was determined radiographically and re-confirmed two weeks later. Facial, maxillary arch and incisor dimensions were assessed. Intra-examiner reproducibility was re-assessed using randomly selected images (20%, n = 40). General linear models were applied for inter-group comparisons incorporating Bonferroni adjustment with categorical parameters assessed using Fisher’s exact test (SAS®, Version 9.4, SAS.com). Inter-class correlation coefficients were calculated for relationships between the variables.

Results

Fifty-four patients (37 females; 17 males) presenting with a unilaterally impacted palatal canine [mean age 14.5 (SD 1.7) years] and 54 control subjects (37 females, 17 males) [mean age 14.3 (SD 2.2) years] were recruited. Measurement error was small for landmark data (0.58 mm), palatal depth (0.09 mm), palatal area (0.42 mm²) and Bolton ratio (0.14%). For facial, maxillary arch and tooth shape assessments, landmark error was 0.05 mm with complete agreement for classification.

The mean nasal basal width was smaller in the unilaterally impacted palatal canine group compared with the control group (P < 0.0001) but face shape distribution and face ratio were similar (both P > 0.05). The mean anterior Bolton ratio was larger in the impacted canine group (P < 0.01). No differences were recorded between groups for other parameters (all P > 0.05). No positive correlations were identified between the variables.

Conclusions

Patients with a unilaterally impacted palatal canine had a narrower mean nasal basal width and a larger mean anterior Bolton ratio compared to a control group but the clinical significance of the differences was considered minor. Facial, maxillary arch and incisor dimensions were neither individually nor collectively correlated with a palatal canine which may lend support to a genetic aetiology.

Силы и моменты, действующие на погруженное тело со стороны жидкости, могут оказывать существенное влияние на характер его движения при малом заглублении. Несмотря на важность исследования этих параметров, влияющих на обеспечение безопасности и маневренности подводного аппарата, встречается не так много теоретических и особенно экспериментальных работ по данной тематике. Авторами статьи на базе опытового бассейна впервые экспериментально определены углы дифферента модели погруженного тела, возникающие при движении в приповерхностной водной среде. С помощью программного комплекса ANSYS 19 R2 Academic Research численно определены силы и моменты, действующие на тело заданной геометрии при его движении вблизи свободной поверхности жидкости с различной скоростью. Установлено влияние на исследуемые параметры особенностей формы корпуса моделей, а именно коэффициента полноты мидель-шпангоута и коэффициента общей полноты.

Досліджено статус особливої соціальної групи післявоєнного українського суспільства – інвалідів Вітчизняної війни і ставлення до неї з боку радянської держави. Метою роботи є історична реконструкція провідних елементів радянської політики соціального захисту ветеранів-інвалідів і її результатів у перші післявоєнні роки. Методологію складають принципи об’єктивності, історизму, системності, науковості. Застосовано історико-генетичний, порівняльний, статистичний, діахронний, історико-антропологічний методи. Наукова новизна полягає у тому, що вперше проаналізовано ставлення радянського режиму до інвалідів Вітчизняної війни на тлі Третього голоду в Україні. Висновки. Становлення системи соціального забезпечення інвалідів Вітчизняної війни в УРСР відбувалося упродовж 1940 – 1946 рр. У 1940 – 1941 рр. влада юридично впорядкувала пенсіонування майбутніх інвалідів війни. З початком німецько-радянської війни постановами союзного та республіканського урядів було виділено осіб з інвалідністю внаслідок війни з Німеччиною з-посеред інших контингентів інвалідів, присвоєно їм офіційну назву “інваліди Вітчизняної війни” й додано нові види соціального захисту. В умовах погіршення економічної ситуації в УРСР і початку Третього голоду в республіці відбулося різке зростання кількості інвалідів Вітчизняної війни. Встановлено, що під тиском партійно-урядового керівництва УРСР Міністерство соціального забезпечення і Лікарсько-трудові експертні комісії провели акцію скорочення кількості взятих на облік інвалідів війни за допомогою “глибокої лікарсько-трудової експертизи”, оголошуючи їх такими, що “цілком одужали”. Крім того, багатьом інвалідам-фронтовикам знизили групу інвалідності. Причиною таких дій керівництва республіки стала необхідність уникнути дефіциту бюджету системи соціального забезпечення й додаткова економія хліба.

Ключові слова: інваліди Вітчизняної війни, соціальне забезпечення, пенсіонування, соцзабези, лікарсько-трудові експертні комісії, група інвалідності.

Este estudo foi desenvolvido com o objetivo de identificar as relações existentes entre a Estrutura e Estratégia de Responsabilidade Social Corporativa com as Capacidades Dinâmicas. Para tanto, adotou-se um plano de pesquisa descritivo e, como estratégia, optou-se pelo estudo de casos de caráter qualitativo. Para o alcance dos objetivos propostos foi realizado um estudo em duas organizações de setores distintos que apresentam características diferentes de estrutura e de estratégias de Responsabilidade Social Corporativa adotadas. No que se refere aos resultados encontrados, destaca-se que a Alfa, por apresentar características do Estágio Estratégico, desenvolve a Capacidade de Aprender. A Beta, por estar em um estágio que é considerado de transição, Estágio de Cuidado, possui a Capacidade de Interação já bem definida, mas, devido às suas particularidades, começa a apresentar características relativas da Capacidade de Aprender. Logo, a partir deste estudo é possível concluir que não necessariamente uma organização precisa apresentar características apenas de um estágio ou de uma capacidade, ela pode apresentar características de dois ou mais estágios, bem como estar em uma fase de transição entre as capacidades e apresentar características de mais de uma capacidade. Portanto, Capacidades Dinâmicas de Responsabilidade Social Corporativa ou, conforme foi denominado nesse estudo, Responsabilidade Social Corporativa Dinâmica é necessária quando uma organização passa por um processo de amadurecimento das questões de Responsabilidade Social Corporativa e passa de um estágio para outro.

Objetivo: Avaliar a fisiopatologia e manifestações clínicas das infecções por SARS-CoV-2 e Influenza de forma a simplificar sua diferenciação clínica no decurso da pandemia da COVID-19. Revisão Bibliográfica: O histórico de grandes epidemias mundiais promoveu, na comunidade científica, um maior arsenal científico-tecnológico para combate a novas infecções. Ao longo dos séculos, os vírus sofrem mutações gerando novas cepas responsáveis por epidemias e pandemias que elevam a morbimortalidade e afetam o desenvolvimento socioeconômico nos países. Nesse contexto, a pandemia da COVID-19 revelou à similaridade entre as infecções por SARS-CoV-2 e por Influenza e os desafios clínicos de identificação e manejo dos infectados. Estudos observacionais detalharam especificidades sintomatológicas, mas notoriamente insuficientes para diagnóstico clínico conciso, especialmente após os relatos de casos de coinfecção. Desse modo, os estudos propedêuticos seguem em atualização a fim de garantir o melhor prognóstico para os pacientes acometidos. Considerações finais: A revisão bibliográfica visa auxiliar na identificação e diferenciação entre as infecções por SARS-CoV-2 e por Influenza de forma a ampliar a segurança da propedêutica dado o alto índice de mortalidade do contexto pandêmico.

A Review on the application of Macrophytes in Phytoremediation of Heavy metal Polluted water
Authors: Pandey Diksha , Chhimwal Monika , Srivastava Rajeev Kumar
Published: March 2022

Heavy metal pollution is a major source of pollution in the environment. Heavy metal pollution in ground and surface water threatens human health and the aquatic ecology. Traditional treatment approaches for removing pollutants from wastewater are typically expensive, time-consuming, harmful to the environment and inefficient. Phytoremediation is a low-cost, environmentally sustainable, emerging technology with a long-term application. The most important part of successful phytoremediation is plant species selection. Organic and inorganic contaminants are removed with great efficiency by aquatic macrophytes. Metal accumulator plants such as water hyacinth, water lettuce and duck weed as well as a few other aquatic plants, are commonly used to treat heavy-metal polluted water. In order to show the extensive applicability of phytoremediation, a comprehensive review about the aquatic macrophytes in phytoremediation has been compiled.
Study of thermal energy storing beeswax microcapsules by in situ polymerization method
Authors: Amberkar Tejashree , Mahanwar Prakash
Published: March 2022

Bioproduct beeswax has good potential to serve as Phase Change Material (PCM) for thermal energy storage applications. But leakage problems during the thermal transition process of beeswax demand for its encapsulation. This study demonstrates the use of resorcinol modified phenol-formaldehyde shell for beeswax microencapsulation. The optimum values of process parameters for microencapsulation were determined with the help of the Taguchi orthogonal array. Taguchi method helps to minimize experimental formulation numbers for determining optimum values of process parameters. The optimum values for control parameters core to shell ratio, surfactant concentration and agitation speed were 1:1, 3% and 800 rpm respectively. The microencapsulation process carried out with optimum parameter values yielded microencapsulated PCM. FTIR, DSC and particle size analysis confirmed microencapsulation of beeswax with resorcinol modified phenol-formaldehyde shell. Microcapsules had high melting enthalpy of 148.93 J/g with the peak phase transition temperature of 57.86 oC. Morphological analysis with SEM and optical microscope reported spherical geometry of beeswax microcapsules. Heat transfer profile of microcapsules captured with thermal imaging camera reciprocated with DSC results. The prepared thermal energy storing microcapsules will enhance the performance of building materials, solar devices, electronic systems and packaging materials.

По аналогии с электротехникой под полной механической мощностью следует понимать величину, равную произведению комплекса силы на сопряженный комплекс скорости.

For bodies that perform linear harmonic oscillations, inertial and total power are introduced and their relationship to dissipative power is considered. By analogy with electrical engineering, the total mechanical power should be understood as the quantity equal to the product of the force complex by the conjugate velocity complex.
ABOUT SOME MISCONCEPTIONS IN COSMOLOGY. NEWTON OR EINSTEIN?

C помощью закона всемирного тяготения и явления инерции получены формулы количественного определения расширения световой волны, удаляющейся от массивного компактного тела и для искривления светового луча, проходящего непосредственно около поверхности Солнца. Оказалось достаточно учесть, что луч света, состоящий из фотонов света, обладает массой непрерывно распределенной по длине волны света (движущиеся фотоны обладают массой). Известно, что аналогичные формулы были получены ранее в теории относительности Эйнштейна. Они явились как бы экспериментальным доказательством справедливости этой теории, но привели астрофизиков к нелепому выводу об искривлении пространства около массивных тел, противоречащему земной практике человечества. На самом деле искривляется луч света, а не пространство.

Astrophysics drew a modern picture of the world, based on the signals of light and electromagnetic radiation from stars and other space objects, as well as on the own imagination of the researchers of these objects. But in the laws of the propagation of light, there is a lack of knowledge about what happens to light and electromagnetic radiation over a long path from radiating objects to an observer on Earth. This can lead to a distorted view of the universe. For example, to explain the observed phenomena of gravitational displacement in the spectra of some stars and the curvature of a ray of light passing beside the Sun to an observer on Earth, A. Einstein developed a theory of relativity containing a number of paradoxes contrary to earthly practice. In the proposed article, the solution of these problems is given on the basis of the wellknown I. Newton laws and the conservation of inertia of massive bodies.
Understanding the Role of Charge Storage Mechanisms in the Electrochromic Switching Kinetics of Metal Oxide Nanocrystals

Published: March 2022

The development of electrochromic metal oxide nanocrystals holds promise for improving the sluggish switching kinetics of conventional electrochromic smart windows. Nevertheless, the microscopic processes controlling switching kinetics in nanocrystals may differ from those in traditional bulk materials where ion diffusion following intercalation is often rate limiting. Herein, by systematically investigating the electrochromic response of Sn-doped In2O3 nanoparticles, ortho-rhombic Nb2O5 nanorods, and monoclinic Nb12O29 nanoplatelets, we elucidate how different charge storage mechanisms, including capacitive charging, surface redox, and intercalation, affect the switching kinetics of electrochromic nanocrystals. The nanocrystals were reduced in both lithium- and tetrabutylammonium-based electrolytes at various potentials to determine which charge storage mechanism governs their electrochromic response, and the optical switching kinetics at a reducing potential were quantified by fitted with an exponential-growth model based on the charging behavior of capacitors. For the surface-dominated capacitive charging and surface redox mechanisms, dual-stage switching kinetics were observed regardless of the materials, switching rapidly at the early stage of reduction and becoming slower over time as charge accumulates in the electric double layer. As for the intercalation mechanism, single-stage switching kinetics con-trolled by the reaction rate of ion intercalation were observed. By using spectroelectrochemical methods, we demonstrated approaches to define the charge storage mechanisms in electrochromic metal oxide nanocrystals and investigated how these mechanisms affect the switching kinetics of the electrochromic response.

Carboxylic acids, as a fundamental raw material, are widely used in the production of fine chemicals. Herein, we developed the oxidation of alcohols to carboxylic acids under visible light irradiation at room temperature by devising a duplex NH2-MIL-125(Ti)/NaBr catalyst system comprising a photocatalyst and a redox-active cocatalyst. Using the optimization of reaction conditions, the reaction proceeded in high yield under mild conditions with producing barely side products from various alcohols, including sterically hindered aromatic alcohols, aliphatic primary alcohols, and electron-withdrawing/ electron-donating groups substituted benzyl alcohols.

Polymeric antimicrobial peptide mimics are a promising alternative for the future management of the daunting problems associated with antimicrobial resistance. However, the development of successful antimicrobial polymers (APs) requires careful control of factors such as amphiphilic balance, molecular weight, dispersity, sequence, and architecture. While most of the earlier developed APs focused on random linear copolymers, the development of APs with advanced architectures proved to be more potent in the mimicry of antimicrobial peptides. We recently developed multivalent bottlebrush APs with improved antibacterial and hemocompatibility profiles, outperforming their linear counterparts. Understanding the rationale behind the outstanding biological activity of these newly developed antimicrobials is vital to further improving their performance. This work investigates the physicochemical properties governing the differences in activity between linear and bottlebrush architectures using diverse spectroscopic and microscopic techniques. Linear copolymers are more solvated, thermo-responsive and possess facial amphiphilicity resulting in random aggregations when interacting with liposomes mimicking E. coli-membranes. The bottlebrush copolymers adopt a more stable secondary conformation in aqueous solution in comparison to linear copolymers, conferring rapid and more specific binding mechanism to membranes. The advantageous physicochemical properties of the bottlebrush topology seem to be a determinant factor in the activity of these promising APs.

В статье обращено внимание на значение принципа гуманизма и его место в системе принципов права. Показано, что этот принцип существует в правовой системе как основополагающая идея и как конкретная правовая норма в уголовном праве. Отмечено проявление принципа гуманизма в правовых ситуациях, которые обычно не рассматриваются с таких позиций. Обоснована необходимость соблюдения баланса проявления принципа гуманизма применительно к участникам правоотношений на примере решения вопроса о привлечении судьи к дисциплинарной ответственности. Проанализировано действие принципа гуманизма при применении мер уголовной ответственности.

The article draws attention to the importance of the principle of humanism and its place in the system of principles. It is shown that this principle exists in the legal system as a fundamental idea and as a specific legal norm in criminal law. The manifestation of the principle of humanism in legal situations, which are usually not considered from such positions, is noted. The necessity of maintaining a balance in the manifestation of the principle of humanism in relation to the participants in legal relations is substantiated by the example of solving the issue of bringing a judge to disciplinary responsibility. The article analyzes the action of the principle of humanism in the application of measures of criminal responsibility.

Fokus penelitian ini adalah pengujian validitas konstrak dengan menggunakan analisis faktorial dengan menggunakan analisa faktor eksploratori, kemudian dilanjutkan dengan analisa faktor konfirmatori. Analisa faktor eksploratori bertujuan untuk mengurangi jumlah aitem dalam skala sehingga aitem yang tersisa memaksimalkan varians dan reliabilitas alat ukur serta mengidentifikasi aspek-aspek potensial yang menjelaskan konstruk. Jadi analisis faktor eksploratori ditujukan untuk mengetahui muatan faktor yang besar yang ada dalam satu faktor dan tidak pada faktro lain. Analisis faktor konfirmatori bertujuan untuk melihat faktor yang digunakan atau ditetapkan untuk menyusun suatu konstruk benar-benar fit dan bersifat independensi satu sama lain. Jadi analisis faktor konfirmatori pada dasarnya digunakan untuk menguji sebuah konsep, serta menguji validitas konstrak suatu alat ukur. Sampel penelitian sebanyak 204 subjek. Analisis data dilakukan melalui SPSS untuk analisis faktor eksploratori dan SEM untuk analisis faktor konfirmatori. Hasil analisis eksploratori menunjukkan bila ada empat aspek/komponen yang terbentuk, yang memiliki eigen values diatas satu dan mampu menjelaskan 57,768% variasi.  Kemudian dilakukan analisa faktor dengan memasukkan dua aspek/komponen sesuai dengan aspek yang ada pada teori.

Purpose: Epilepsy is one of the most common neurological disorders in both adults and children. After detailed history-taking, electroencephalography (EEG) is the most important investigation in the evaluation of epilepsy patients. Polyspikes, defined as a sequence of two or more spikes, are among the findings that can be seen on EEGs of epilepsy patients, but the literature on their significance in focal epilepsy patients is scarce. Therefore, in the current study, we investigated the significance of polyspikes on EEG in childhood focal epilepsy. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted of data from children who were diagnosed with focal epilepsy and received anti-seizure medications at Pusan National University Children’s Hospital. Results: Among the 1,125 children included in this study, 468 (41.6%) showed interictal polyspikes on their EEGs. In the multivariate analysis, only the presence of brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) abnormalities was significantly associated with the presence of interictal polyspikes on EEGs. Among patients with brain MRI abnormalities, localized polyspikes were significantly associated with focal cortical dysplasia, while multifocal polyspikes were significantly associated with perinatal insults (hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy and destructive encephalomalacia). Conclusion: Focal epilepsy patients with interictal polyspikes were more likely to have a structural etiology. Furthermore, patients with localized polyspikes were more likely to have focal cortical dysplasia as the structural etiology, while patients with multifocal polyspikes were more likely to have perinatal insults as the structural etiology. This study demonstrates that focal polyspikes can be used as markers of the possible presence of a structural etiology in routine practice.
