Development of an Adjustable Pylon for Lower Limb Prosthesis: A Prototype
Authors: Padhi Jayanta Kumar , Swain Parthasarathi , Madhusmita Das Choudhury
Published: April 2022

Amputation of a limb is always perceived as a catastrophe. The principles underlying creation of a stump adapted to modern prosthetic fittings must be fully understood and the patient managed by a multidisciplinary team. In paediatric patients, managing the prosthetic limb length is a crucial point that should be maintained according to the expected growth potential of the child. The main problem with child amputee is the heel height and adjustment of height of prosthesis during change of foot wears and bare foot walking. Children with congenital amputation and congenital anomalies need special attention for the prosthetic fitment. As children are in the growing age, the prosthetic device is required to be changed frequently. The major constraint in frequent change of prosthetic device in developing country is lack of special prosthetic kit, paediatric prosthetics components, skilled prosthetists and low-income group of amputees. To face this challenge, we have designed and developed a new adjustable prosthetic pylon for lower limb prosthesis.

Key words: Prosthesis, Component development, Prosthesis, congenital anomaly, Adjustable pylon.
Spontaneous Neonatal Pneumomediastinum - A Case Report
Authors: Banu Dr. Asfia , B Dr. Anusha
Published: April 2022

Neonatal pneumomediastinum has been found to occur in approximately 2.5 per 1000 live births. It is a benign and self-limiting condition in neonates. It can be symptomatic or asymptomatic but resolves with appropriate supportive and conservative treatment. Close monitoring in such babies is essential.
In this case report, presenting a boy baby born by an uncomplicated normal vaginal delivery with no resuscitation manoeuvres required and a good APGAR score of 8/10 and 9/10 at 1 minute and at 5 minutes of life. This baby was having tachypnoea since the time of birth which worsened to respiratory distress with grunting and intercostal retractions by 2 hours of life. A Chest X ray was done, which showed pneumomediastinum. As the baby was not maintaining saturation with hood box oxygen and the distress was quite severe, we started high flow oxygen by nasal cannula. As the saturation was maintaining and there was clinical improvement in the baby, the high flow oxygen was gradually weaned off by Day 11 of life and the baby was discharged in a stable state.
Pneumomediastinum is a diagnosis made by clinical observation as well as by radiology. Though it is a benign condition, an oxygen rich environment is the main stay of treatment and close observation for worsening distress or development of pneumothorax / subcutaneous or interstitial emphysema is necessary.
In this case, baby developed the pneumomediastinum spontaneously with no antenatal or perinatal risk factors. The vigorous respiratory efforts by the baby and vigorous crying at birth led to alveolar rupture, thereby leading to the pneumomediastinum. The pneumomediastinum was so severe that it took 11 days to resolve completely.

Key words: pneumomediastinum, spontaneous, neonatal, oxygen.

Published: April 2022

In this paper, the Lakshmanan-Porsezian-Daniel (LPD) equation is considered. This equation is integrable and admits Lax pair. The LPD equation is the generalization of the nonlinear Schrodinger (NLS) equation and described by Ablowitz-Kaup-Newell-Segur (AKNS) system. Using the sine-cosine method and the hyperbolic tangent method a variety of new exact solutions are obtained. These methods are effective tools for searching exact solutions of nonlinear partial differential equations in mathematical physics. The obtained solutions are found to be important for the explanation of some practical physical problems.
Агитационно-пропагандистское обеспечение вербовки женщин на принудительную работу в Германию с оккупированной территории Белорусской ССР в 1941–1943 гг.
Authors: Пушкаренко Елена Анатольевна
Published: April 2022

В статье исследуется вопрос агитационно-пропагандистского обеспечения вербовки женщин на принудительную работу в Германию с оккупированной территории Белорусской ССР в 1941–1943 гг. (на материалах Генерального округа Беларусь). Цель работы: проанализировать содержание немецкой пропаганды для женщин, выявить ее цели, определить эффективность, сравнить ее с реальной политикой оккупационных властей. Исследование проведено на основе материалов пропаганды и нормативных актов немецких оккупационных властей. Автор считает, что актуализация в немецкой пропаганде «женского вопроса» не принесла оккупационным властям ожидаемых результатов. Факторами, существенно снижающими эффективность пропаганды и агитации, стали методы борьбы с партизанами, практикуемые силами СС и СД, карательные экспедиции против мирного населения в зонах действия партизан, насильственный характер мобилизации на работу в Германию, очевидное расхождение между содержанием пропаганды и реалиями оккупационной жизни.
Ганнибал Барка – теоретик военного дела
Authors: Нефедкин Александр Константинович
Published: April 2022

В титуле «Тактики» Никифора Урана (ок. 950 – после 1007) среди источников этого труда упомянуто сочинение Ганнибала. Скорее всего, это сочинение Ганнибала по жанру могло быть обычной для опытного полководца стратегикой, или навмахией, или даже полиоркетикой. Все данные темы присутствуют в «Тактике» Никифора Урана. У пожилого Ганнибала в изгнании (186–183 гг. до н. э.) не было достаточно времени для составления обширного труда, скорее всего, это было довольно короткое сочинение, может быть, даже в форме письма. Сам Уран вполне мог познакомиться с этим редким произведением Ганнибала, когда он был секретарем императора Василия II Болгаробойцы (976–1025 гг.) в Константинополе и мог пользоваться государственными книгохранилищами (ранее 980–997 гг.).

Англоязычный драматургический диалог как стилизованная коммуникация: лингвоаксиологический аспект
Authors: Старостина Юлия Сергеевна , Чекулай Игорь Васильевич , Прохорова Ольга Николаевна
Published: April 2022

Актуальным вектором лингвистики выступает лингвоаксиология, в особенности ее дискурсивно-коммуникативное направление, нацеленное на ценностно-оценочную параметризацию коммуникативных практик. Перспективную фактологическую базу представляет англоязычный драматургический дискурс, центральным компонентом которого является зона вербального взаимодействия персонажей. Поскольку драматургический диалог есть образец модифицированной автором повседневной коммуникации, его имманентной характеристикой выступает стилизация, оказывающая влияние на лингвоаксиологический дискурсивный план. Вместе с тем факторы, детерминирующие процесс авторских преобразований при формировании англоязычного драматургического диалога в аспекте его лингвоаксиологической специфики еще не получили должного научного осмысления. Цель настоящего исследования заключается в системном анализе феномена стилизации англоязычного драматургического диалога в русле лингвоаксиологического подхода. Итогом исследования является разработка модели стилизации драматургического диалога, а также обоснование смежного понятия «авторского преломления». На основе модели идентифицируется системный комплекс лингвоаксиологических характеристик англоязычного диалога драмы, определяемых его дискурсивной амбивалентностью. Полученные результаты представляют новый ракурс в исследование лингвоаксиологической проблематики и вносят вклад в оформление теоретической платформы дискурсивно-коммуникативной лингвоаксиологии.

Learning about a Woman Queen in Africa: Njinga (1583-1663) as an Ecological Human Rights Defender and a Sister Against Turbulent Times of Racism and War: An Ecolinguistic Study
Authors: AGİŞ Fazıla Derya
Published: April 2022

Njinga (1582 Ndongo-December 1663 Matamba) was a female black warrior from the Ndongo and Matamba Kingdoms of the Mbundu people known as Angola today where Portuguese is the official language of communication. She was criticized for assisting the Portuguese, being a cannibal, and contributing to the African slave trade. She could speak several languages. She was the daughter of King Kiluanji. However, according to a movie on her, she freed her country from Portuguese invaders during the turbulent times of war and racism, leading to slavery (see Graciano (director of the movie), 2013). In this study, her representations as a good strategist and a politician in the movie directed by Graciano (2013) and in the comics on her prepared and published by UNESCO (comic strip text by Serbin and Joubeaud, 2014) will be compared from an ecocritical point of view as slavery and mining are also means of nature devastation, leading to turbulent times of pandemics, discrimination, and wars. Arran Stibbe’s (2015 and 2021) ecological discourse analysis strategies will be used to divide sentences on Njinga’s acts into three categories as those related to (1) destructive discourse, (2) ambivalent discourse, and (3) beneficial discourse in relation to environmental ethics, keeping in mind the Halliday’s (1994) three language “metafunctions” categorized as (a) “ideational,” (d) “interpersonal,” and (c) “textual” (as cited in Gong and Liu, 2018).

Cognitive and Affective Influences on Decision Quality
Authors: Clark Michaela , Hicks Patrick Julie
Published: April 2022

Introduction: Cognitive and affective factors influence decision outcomes, but few studies have examined both factors simultaneously. Study 1 used cluster analysis to test whether affective profiles related to decision domains could be identified as individual difference factors. Study 2 extended these findings to test whether such profiles can predict decision quality.
Methods:  We analyzed importance and meaningfulness ratings from 1123 adults regarding four low-frequency but high-salience decisions. Profile analyses revealed three meaningful profiles. A subset (n = 56) of adults completed quasi-experimental decision tasks in two of these domains.
Results: Hierarchical regression examined the contributions of the affective cluster from Study 1 and executive functions to decision quality. We first regressed decision quality onto an index of executive function (F (1, 53) = 4.57, p = .037). At Step 2, affective cluster accounted for an additional 12.5% of the variance in decision quality, Fchange (2, 51) = 4.01, p = .024.  The overall model retained its significance, F (3, 51) = 4.37, p = .008, R2 = .205. 
Conclusions: Together, Study 1 and 2 demonstrate that affective components related to the decision domain can be used as individual difference factors and that these account for unique variance in decision outcomes.
Cognitive Dynamics: Additive or Multiplicative?
Authors: Amon Mary Jean , Annand Colin T. , Holden John
Published: April 2022

Introduction: Cognition is assumed to rely on distinct and additive substages such as perceptual encoding, memory, and motor control. Nevertheless, questions surrounding the assumptions of modularity and additivity persist. If a stable cognitive architecture exists, then repeatedly executing the same cognitive act should repeatedly engage the self-same structure. If discreet sub-acts behave in a manner consistent with a sum of independent random variables, then the assumption of additive and modular cognitive processes is reasonable. However, if they develop dependencies, then the assumption of additivity and modularity in cognition should be questioned.
Methods: The study required participants (N = 180) to successively execute identical elementary cognitive acts in a stacked 1-word, 2-word, and 4-word lexical decision task. Correct response time was the primary dependent measure.
Results: Statistical analyses revealed evidence for additivity in mean response time after a logarithmic transformation (r2 = .81, p < .05 & r2 = .74, p < .05). This pattern is consistent with multiplicative dynamics.
Conclusions: The results indicate that variance grows multiplicatively as a function of the number of sub-acts. A straightforward way to generate this pattern of variability growth is to assume the sub-acts develop successive dependencies and combine multiplicatively.
Personality Traits Predict Proximal Goals Among Emerging Adults
Authors: Amy Knepple Carney  , Nicole Belanger  , Vanessa Hillman  , Julie Patrick
Published: April 2022

Introduction: Individuals often grapple with questions regarding how to accomplish their major life goals. In fact, selecting which goals to pursue is an important developmental task in emerging adulthood 1. Personality traits have been shown to be associated with which major life goals adults pursue 2. Little research, though, has examined whether these associations are present among the proximal goals emerging adults pursue.
Methods:  The influence of personality traits on goal pursuit of emerging adults was examined, using data from 716 emerging adults (M = 19.32, SD = 1.25) who completed measures regarding proximal goals (e.g., health, socioemotional, spiritual/religious, and cognitive) and the Big Five personality traits.
Results: Using SEM, the model fit the data well, χ2 (17, N = 716) = 99.10, p < .001.  The overall omnibus model showed that higher neuroticism, openness to experience, and agreeableness contributed to the number of proximal goals emerging adults are currently pursuing. Post hoc analyses showed that different personality traits contributed to the goal domains that emerging adults pursue.
Conclusions: Personality may be a factor that enhances or undermines the motivation for the goals that emerging adults pursue 3, 4. Results are discussed in terms of how individual characteristics influence goal pursuit and how such activity might reinforce or further shape personality.
The 1920s in Hristo Karastoyanov’s novel “The Same Night Awaits Us All” – Light and Darkness
Authors:   Plovdiv University “Paisii Hilendarski”, Lateva Trayana
Published: April 2022

The paper aims to comment on the representation of the 1920s, seen through the last few years of the lives of the poet Geo Milev and the anarchist Georgi Sheytanov, as shown in one of the most famous contemporary Bulgarian novels, written by Hristo Karastoyanov, “The Same Night Awaits Us All”. In order for this to be achieved a few key scenes are analyzed, since they introduce main themes and narrative strategies, followed throughout the novel, as well as point out the allegorical contrast between light and darkness, good and evil. Subject to interpretation are also the characters’ motifs, actions, emotional states and reactions, particularly to the presence of death, which seems to be impossible to overlook and plays an important part in setting the overall tone of the novel.
Translation and Interpretation in Bulgarian Language and Literature Teaching
Authors:   Sofia University “St. Kliment Ohridski”, Elenkova Vessela
Published: April 2022

Changing the focus in modern education from teaching knowledge to acquiring key competences requires the development of new, practically oriented, interactive methodological solutions. The article outlines theoretical perspectives for future investigation, based on the results from lessons carried out in line with the Waldorf pedagogy, which is innovative for Bulgaria. They point to opportunities of developing interdisciplinary teaching in English, Bulgarian (Music, Visual Arts, Philosophy, Citizenship) through (literary) translation as a learning activity. Thus conditions could be created for going beyond a particular subject, hence for learning in the context of universal human themes. This could allow for the acquiring of basic life skills and the integrated development of key competences: literacy competence, multilingual competence, cultural awareness and expression competence, citizenship competence, including intercultural competence.

Aesthetic management of fluorosis
Authors: Gupta Udit , Kaur Gursandeep , Sood Himanshu
Published: April 2022

With increasing awareness and aesthetic concerns, the number of people seeking professional dental help for improvement in the appearance of their dentitions and for smile makeovers are on rise. Dental fluorosis, tetracycline staining, localised and chronological hypoplasia, and both amelogenesis and dentinogenesis imperfecta can all produce a cosmetically unsatisfactory dentition. The aetiology of intrinsic discolouration of enamel may sometimes be deduced from the patient's history, and one factor long associated with the problem has been a high level of fluoride intake. Optimal use of topical fluorides leads to a decrease in the caries prevalence but may show an increase in the prevalence of fluorosis staining because of metabolic alterations in the ameloblasts, causing a defective matrix formation and improper calcification. A 28 yr female patient was screened at the Department of Conservative Dentistry and Endodontics at desh bhagat dental college, mandi gobindgarh, Punjab. She wanted us to remove and/or minimise the noticeable brown/yellow staining of his teeth. She  requested the least invasive and most cost-effective treatment to change his smile. Various treatment modalities are present for the treatment of fluorosis stains. This report discusses the microabrasion technique in the patient having dental fluorosis.
Cone-beam computed tomography
Authors: Singh Disha
Published: April 2022

Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is an important source of three‐dimensional volumetric data in clinical orthodontics. Due to the progress in the technology of CBCT, for orthodontic clinical diagnosis, treatment and follow‐up, it supply much more reliable information compared to conventional radiography. But it carries both risks and benefits in orthodontics and the principal risks and limitations include ionizing radiation, the presence of artifacts, higher cost, limited accessibility, and the need for additional training. However, this imaging modality has several recognized indications in orthodontics, such as the assessment of impacted and ectopic teeth, assessment of pharyngeal airway, assessment of mini-implant sites, evaluation of craniofacial abnormalities, evaluation of sinus anatomy or pathology, evaluation of root resorption, evaluation of the cortical bone plate, and orthognathic surgery planning and evaluation. CBCT is particularly justified when it brings a benefit to the patient or changes the outcome of the treatment when compared with conventional imaging techniques.

To evaluate association of serum Vitamin D level and development of polyneuropathy. This was a case -control study and the study was conducted on an outpatient basis. Fifty-five subjects were recruited from the Medicine OPD of UPUMS Saifai. All subjects had type-2 diabetes (male and female, 40-60 years old). The Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument (15-point questionnaire) was used to identify patients with neuropathy (score > 7/15). 20 patients did not have neuropathy and were designated the control group. 35 patients did have neuropathy (“study group”) and these patients underwent a detailed quantitative neuropathy evaluation by a neurologist using the 46-point Michigan Diabetic Neuropathy Scale (MDNS) and nerve conduction studies. We measured the serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentrations with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS) chromatography in all patients. These values were compared between the control and study group, and were correlated with the detailed neuropathy score in the study group. Patients with diabetic polyneuropathy had a lower mean serum 25- hydroxyvitamin D level (16. 41 ng/ml with the SD of: 2.026) in comparison to the controls (38.76 ng/ml with the SD of 5.483).

Introduction: Aging population is a major demographic trend worldwide. Globally, 50% of the elderly individuals are estimated to undergo atleast one surgical procedure. POCD is one of the most common and often poorly understood. POCD is more common in elderly patients undergoing orthopaedic surgeries. This study was conducted to find incidence and its correlation with associated factors for POCD in elderly patients posted for elective orthopaedic surgeries under central neuraxial blockade (CNB). Methods: Study was conducted in 60 patients of either sex, aged >60 years (ASA grade I-III) posted for elective orthopaedic lower limb surgeries under CNB. Mini mental status examination was done preoperatively, on postoperative days 1, 3 and 30. Primary aim was to find out the incidence of POCD; secondary outcomes assessed included correlations with age, sex, level of education, ASA grade, DM, HTN, alcoholism, smoking, type of anaesthesia, intraoperative hypotension, and duration of hospital stay and duration of surgery. Association between categorical variables was assessed with chi-square test. A p-value of<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: Among the 60 patients studied  15(26.67%) patients showed POCD on day 1 which decreased to 18% on day 3 and 12 % on day 30 associated with increasing age.

Currently a great number of problems have accumulated regarding the Arctic agenda in international legal, military, socio-economic, environmental, and scientific spheres. The authors of the study believe that international collaboration in the scientific and technical sphere, built upon a legal basis, is the first direction of mutually beneficial interstate collaboration in the Arctic region. The development of international scientific and technical collaboration in the field of complex Arctic study presupposes a comprehensive approach with regard to economic, legal and political aspects, and analyzing static and dynamic indicators. Thus, it is necessary to develop a legal model of collaboration. The development of the legal model of international scientific and technical collaboration in the field of complex Arctic study involves a range of actions aimed at improving the regulatory and conceptual framework, changing the system of state management of scientific and technical collaboration in the Arctic zone in order to ensure a consistent policy and eliminate existing problems.

Authors: Arnaut Marina N. , Nedoluzhko Olga V.
Published: April 2022

The relevance is in a specific problem - the contradiction between a particular territory competitiveness increase (for example, the gross regional product, budget financing) and the population interest in implementing their qualitative and quantitative characteristics (human capital) on it. The article proposes the author's approach of proving the position that the specificity of human capital development can be both a constraining and an activating factor for a territory competitiveness increase. It has been determined that the influence nature (positive or negative) is set by a combination of factors that are the main elements of mutual influence mechanisms of human capital qualitative and quantitative components and the rates of socio-economic development of a territory, which characterize its level of competitiveness. The results obtained can be used by researchers who deal with the problems of human capital theory, its development, and the relationship with the territory competitiveness indicators. The study's practical significance is the possibility of its result application: by state authorities and local self-government during the development and adjustment of documents for territory development strategic planning; the scientific community during the study of human capital and the level of territory competitiveness mutual influence.
