Published: April 2024

Peritonsillar abscess is not an uncommon referral to the otorhinolaryngology team. Treatment entails incision and drainage, followed by antibiotics. Emergent treatment is required to avoid complications such as extension into deep neck spaces, like retropharyngeal and danger space, which may result in spread into the mediastinum and airway obstruction. Herein, we describe peritonsillar abscess management in a morbidly obese woman who presented with peritonsillar abscess with impending airway obstruction. We highlight the importance of multidisciplinary team involvement in managing the difficult airway as well as the preparedness of the difficult airway team.

Authors: Lysechko V. P. , Sadovnykov B. I. , Komar O. M. , Zhuchenko О. S.
Published: April 2024

Context. The paper provides an overview of current methods for recognizing and classifying visual images in static images or video stream. The paper will discuss various approaches, including machine learning, current problems of these methods and possible improvements. The biggest challenges of the visual image retrieval and classification task are discussed. The main emphasis is placed on the review of such promising algorithms as SSD, YOLO, R-CNN, an overview of the principles of these methods, network architectures.

Objective. The aim of the work is to analyze existing studies and find the best algorithm for recognizing and classifying visual images for further activities.

Method. Primary method is to compare different factors of algorithms in order to select the most perspective one. There are different marks to compare, like image processing speed, accuracy. There are a number of studies and publications that propose methods and algorithms for solving the problem of finding and classifying images in an image [3–6]. It should be noted that most promising approaches are based on machine learning methods. It is worth noting that the proposed methods have drawbacks due to the imperfect implementation of the Faster R-CNN, YOLO, SSD algorithms for working with streaming video. The impact of these drawbacks can be significantly reduced by applying the following solutions: development of combined identification methods, processing of edge cases – tracking the position of identified objects, using the difference between video frames, additional preliminary preparation of input data. Another major area for improvement is the optimization of methods to work with real-time video data, as most current methods focus on images.

Results. As an outcome of the current research we have found an optimal algorithm for further researches and optimizations.

Conclusions. Analysis of existent papers and researches has demonstrated the most promising algorithm for further optimizations and experiments. Also current approaches still have some space for further. The next step is to take the chosen algorithm and investigate possibilities to enhance it.
Exploring the Impact of Post-Investment Management on Investment Funds
Authors:   University of Stavanger, Wang Guizhou , Cui Hongrui ,   Beijing Liyan Institute for Finance & Development, China
Published: April 2024

Post-investment management is an essential element in the functioning of equity investment
funds. The question of whether post-investment management can improve the investment
performance of investment funds is controversial. This article examines the impact of postinvestment management on investment performance. The questionnaire survey data from 31
investment institutions and their equity funds data are adopted. The performance of investment
funds is measured by the overall exit rate and the proportion of listed IPO exits for the robustness
test. Post-investment management is measured by the scale of importance that investment
institution employees evaluate their institutions’ focus on post-investment management. The
results show that post-investment management impacts the performance of investment funds
positively in terms of fund exit rates. However, post-investment management has a limited impact
in promoting the exit rate of investment funds. The level of post-investment management and
investment funds exit rates exhibit an inverse U-shaped relationship. The finding highlights the
significance of post-investment management within equity investment institutions. Nevertheless,
investment institutions need to strike a balance between tapping and investing in potential firms
and post-investment management. Excessive post-investment management may even reduce
investment funds' performance. Hence, a moderate level of post-investment management is
recommended.
Dentists’ Perspective and Experiences Relative to the Accidental Dropping of Implant Drivers and Components Intraorally: A Survey of Practicing Clinicians
Authors: Wadhwani Chandur P. K. , Hess Timothy A. , Schoenbaum Todd R. , Wadhwani Yasmin H. , Chung Kwok-Hung
Published: April 2024

Ingestion or aspiration of dental implant screwdrivers or implant components is potentially life-threatening. There are no reports on the frequency at which dentists drop these devices within the mouth or which components are most problematic. There are few reports on what protective measures clinicians take, where risks exist, and how this problem is managed. A 9-part questionnaire was provided to dentists. Data collected included clinicians’ roles, implant surgeons, restorative clinicians, or both—the frequency of dropping implant screwdrivers or components, items considered most problematic. Patient protection and management were also requested. Finally, questions related to how much of a problem clinicians considered this to be and if further solutions and a standardized management protocol should be developed. One hundred twelve dentists voluntarily completed the survey. Of the dentists, 54% restored, 37% restored and surgically placed, and 9% solely placed implants. Twenty-nine percent claimed never to drop components, with 56% dropping an instrument less than 10% of the time. Less than half would suggest patients seek medical advice if a screwdriver or component was accidentally dropped intraorally and was not recovered. Thirty percent never tied floss tethers to screwdrivers, and a similar percentage reported they only sometimes did so. Throat pack protection was reported 51% of the time. Ninety percent considered dropping components an issue, with screwdrivers most problematic. Aspiration or ingestion of implant screwdrivers and components is problematic, with dentists varying their use of protection devices. There is a need to standardize and implement patient protection procedures and management and develop methods to reduce the risk of these potentially life-threatening issues.

Published: April 2024

Alveolar bone quality at the implantation site affects the initial stability of dental implant treatment. However, the relationship between bone quality and osseointegration has yet to be evaluated. Herein, we aimed to investigate the effect of bone quality on dental implant stability in osseointegration formation changes. Patients underwent computed tomography imaging before dental implantation at the posterior. Hounsfield units were measured at the platform, middle, and tip sites. Implant stability was measured using resonance frequency analysis immediately and at 3 months postoperatively, in which the difference in implant stability quotients (ISQ) was defined as the change between primary and secondary fixation. In multiple regression analysis, the dependent variable was the change between the immediate and secondary fixations. We included 81 implants that conformed to the criteria. Primary fixation yielded the following results: R2 = 0.117, F = 2.529, and P = .047. The difference between the maxilla and mandible of the implantation site (P = .02) and the platform-site Hounsfield units (P = .019) were identified as significant factors. The following results were obtained regarding the change between the immediate and secondary fixation: R2 = 0.714, F = 40.964, and P < .001. The difference between diameter (P = .008) and the immediate ISQ (P < .001) were identified as significant factors. Overall, the bone quality of the implantation site affected initial fixation; however, it had limited effect on secondary fixation. Our findings clarified the period where bone quality affects dental implant treatment and is expected to advance dental implant treatment.

Published: April 2024

The aim of this study was to evaluate the mechanical behavior of UCLA and Mini-conical abutments for implants with Tri-channel connections regarding torque loss and vertical misfit. Twenty 3-element metal-ceramic fixed partial dentures (FPD) supported by 2 implants were manufactured and divided into 2 groups (n = 10): UCLA (group 1) and Mini-conical Abutments (group 2). The evaluation of torque loss was carried out before and after mechanical cycling, while the vertical fit was evaluated throughout the different stages of manufacturing the prostheses, as well pre- and postcycling (300,000 cycles, 30 N). Statistical analyses of torque loss and vertical misfit were performed using the linear mixed effects model. Both groups showed torque loss after mechanical cycling (P < .05); however, there was no significant percentage differences between them (P = .795). Before cycling, the groups showed a significant difference in terms of vertical misfit values (P < .05); however, this difference was no long observed after cycling (P = .894). Both groups showed torque loss after the cycling test, with no significant difference (P > .05). There was no significant difference in vertical misfit after mechanical cycling; however, in group 1 (UCLA) there was accommodation of the implant-UCLA abutment interface, while group 2 (Mini-conical abutment) did not show changes in the interface with the implant after the test. Both groups behaved similarly regarding the torque loss of the prosthesis retention screws pre- and postmechanical cycling, with greater loss after the test.
Multi-Modal Hierarchical Attention Model for Enhanced Phishing Website Detection
Authors: K R Rakshith , R Murugan
Published: April 2024

Phishing website attacks persist as a major cyber threat, continually evolving to evade detection. Existing detection methods, such as lookup systems and fraud cue-based approaches, have limitations, prompting the need for advanced techniques capable of addressing these challenges. This paper introduces a novel approach, the Multi-Modal Hierarchical Attention Model (MMHAM), designed to enhance phishing website detection by jointly analysing three crucial modalities: URLs, textual information, and visual design. Traditional lookup systems often fall short in addressing newly created attacks, while fraud cue-based methods may rely heavily on feature engineering, limiting their effectiveness. Deep representation-based methods have shown promise in learning intricate fraud cues, primarily focusing on URLs. However, they neglect the analysis of textual content and visual design, two equally important aspects of website content. MMHAM integrates information from URLs, textual content, and visual design through a shared dictionary learning approach. This innovative mechanism aligns representations from different modalities within the attention model, enabling the model to learn deep fraud cues comprehensively. The proposed MMHAM not only improves phishing detection capabilities but also introduces a hierarchical interpretability system. This system enhances model trustworthiness and provides actionable intelligence for informed decision-making at various levels of phishing threat detection. In our evaluation experiments, MMHAM demonstrated superior performance compared to existing methods, showcasing its ability to learn enhanced deep cues for phishing detection. Furthermore, the hierarchical interpretability system enabled the extraction of valuable phishing threat intelligence. This intelligence can be leveraged to inform phishing website detection strategies at different levels, empowering cybersecurity professionals with a more robust and adaptable defines against phishing attacks. The MMHAM model represents a significant step forward in the ongoing effort to combat the evolving landscape of cyber threats, particularly in the realm of phishing website detection.

Abstract Planting with higher density in sugarcane is one of the practices used to overcome low productivity. However, this planting material is equivalent to 25% of the total cost of production, being one of the main expenses for cultivation. In this sense, the present work aims to evaluate the productivity and economic viability of sugarcane as a function of planting density. The experiment was carried out at Usina Monte Alegre in the municipality of Mamanguape, Paraíba, Brazil, from March 2021 to January 2022 with the variety RB92579. Seven planting density were studied: T1: 7 gems m-1, T2: 10 gems m-1, T3: 12 gems m-1, T4: 11 gems m-1, T5: 15 gems m-1, T6: 17 gems m-1, T7: 24 gems m-1, in randomized blocks with four replications. Growth, productivity and economic viability were evaluated. The highest productivity of cane and sugar, 77.69 ton ha-1 and 10.390 ton ha-1, respectively, was with planting density of 17 and 24 gems-1. While the minimum productivity of cane (61.313 ton ha-1) and sugar (7.924 ton ha-1) was recorded at sowing density of 7 and 11 gems-1. However, cultivation density with 7 and 10 gems m-1 were the ones that provided the highest profitability around 50%, followed by density of 12, 15 and 17 gems m-1 with an average of 45% profit and 11 and 24 gems m-1 with the lowest proportion of profit on average 38%. The cultivation with 17 gems m-1 of cane provides in cane-plant, variety RB92579, greater productivity with a profit rate of 45%, being the most suitable.

ABSTRACT Objective: To reflect on the contributions of representing nursing practice elements in the ISO 18.104:2023 standard. Method: This is a theoretical study with standard analysis. Categorical structures were described to represent nursing practice in terminological systems and contributions identified in the parts of the version were analyzed. Results: There is innovation in the inclusion of nurse sensitive outcomes, nursing action, nursing diagnosis explanation as an indicator of nursing service demand and complexity of care, representation of concepts through mental maps and suggestion of use of restriction models for nursing actions. It describes that the Nursing Process is constituted by nursing diagnosis, nursing action and nurse sensitive outcomes. Final considerations: Indicating a nursing diagnosis as an indicator will bring benefits for knowledge production and decision-making. Although care outcomes are not exclusive responses to nursing action, the modifiable attributes of a nursing diagnosis generate knowledge about clinical practice, nursing action effectiveness and subjects of care’ health state. There is coherence in understanding the Nursing Process concept evolution.

Published: April 2024

Abstract In the past decades, an epidemic of chronic kidney disease (CKD) has been associated with environmental and occupational factors (heat stress from high workloads in hot temperatures and exposure to chemicals, such as pesticides and metals), which has been termed CKD of non-traditional origin (CKDnt). This descriptive review aims to present recent evidence about heat stress, pesticides, and metals as possible causes of CKDnt and provide an overview of the related Brazilian regulation, enforcement, and health surveillance strategies. Brazilian workers are commonly exposed to extreme heat conditions and other CKDnt risk factors, including increasing exposure to pesticides and metals. Furthermore, there is a lack of adequate regulation (and enforcement), public policies, and strategies to protect the kidney health of workers, considering the main risk factors. CKDnt is likely to be a significant cause of CKD in Brazil, since CKD’s etiology is unknown in many patients and several conditions for its development are present in the country. Further epidemiological studies may be conducted to explore causal associations and estimate the impact of heat, pesticides, and metals on CKDnt in Brazil. Moreover, public policies should prioritize reducing workers´ exposure and promoting their health and safety.

Published: April 2024

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) base Internet of Things (IoT) have emerged as a pivotal technology for monitoring and collecting data in diverse applications, including environmental monitoring, industrial automation, and healthcare. However, the limited energy resources of sensor nodes present a significant challenge in ensuring the long-term sustainability and effectiveness of these networks. Energy optimization in WSNs has become a critical research focus to extend network lifetime, enhance reliability, and reduce operational costs. Security is another important issue that needs developer attention. This paper presents an implementation of blockchain security architecture for data storage and access control. A node synchronization-based energy optimization algorithm is developed and integrated into this system to enhance the lifetime of the resource-constrained IoT networks. Results after the implementation and evaluation demonstrate that the proposed model outperforms the existing models in terms of network lifetime prolonging, latency, and throughput. Use of blockchain makes the system secured for storage and authenticated accessing. Overall, the system is reliable, flexible, and robust for applications running on low-power WSNs.

Published: April 2024

A pesquisa busca analisar a eficiência do processo de orçamentação da receita pública, sobretudo as receitas do Imposto sobre Propriedade Predial e Territorial Urbana, e do Imposto sobre Serviços de Qualquer Natureza, em 77 municípios da Região Funcional de Planejamento 7, constituída pelos Coredes Missões, Noroeste Colonial, Celeiro e Fronteira Noroeste, no estado do Rio Grande do Sul. A pesquisa compreendeu os anos de 2001 a 2019. Para mensurar o nível de eficiência no processo de orçamentação das receitas foi calculado a Margem de Acerto, média. Os municípios foram organizados em dois grupos, seguindo a distinção deliberada pela Lei de Responsabilidade Fiscal: municípios com população superior a 50 mil habitantes e com população inferior a 50 mil habitantes, estimativa populacional do Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística, de 2017. Pôde-se identificar, pelo teste da Análise de Variância, que as margens de acerto médias entre os municípios de cada um dos grupos são estatisticamente diferentes, além disso, através da análise de cluster, os municípios com margens de acerto médias homogêneas foram agrupados, independentemente de seu quantitativo populacional. Os resultados do estudo indicam que existe um baixo nível de eficiência no processo de orçamentação das receitas para a maioria dos municípios independente de sua estratificação, o que pode trazer um desempenho negativo para a gestão, pela falta de racionabilidade no estabelecimento das prioridades governamentais, com a assunção de compromissos, sem a respectiva disponibilidade financeira, desiquilibro nas contas públicas e a baixa qualidade dos serviços ofertados a sociedade.

O presente estudo comparou o repertório de ações coletivas das redes organizacionais italianas - Slow Food, Genuíno Clandestino e Colddireti - para o desenvolvimento de circuitos curtos de comercialização de alimentos no contexto do regime alimentar corporativo. Utilizando conceitos da Teoria dos Movimentos Sociais associados aos debates sobre Redes Alimentares Alternativas e Circuitos Curtos de Comercialização, a pesquisa ‘in loco’ foi realizada nos meses de junho e dezembro de 2019 por meio de observação das experiências comerciais e entrevistas com seus representantes. Além disso, desde esse período, foram realizadas coletas de opiniões públicas de seus dirigentes, análise de documentos públicos, bem como o estudo de artigos científicos relacionados ao tema. Os resultados demonstram que, apesar do tema 'buon cibo' ser central para a identidade italiana, cada rede organizacional estudada realiza estratégias diferenciadas para a construção de circuitos curtos de comercialização de alimentos, as quais nem sempre convergem ou dialogam na perspectiva de ser um contramovimento ao regime alimentar corporativo.

Published: April 2024

El agua es uno de los elementos más determinantes en la configuración del paisaje de un lugar, además de ser imprescindible para la vida. No es por ello extraño que en todas las épocas cada grupo humano haya dado nombre a las distintas realidades hídricas que definen las zonas en las que se asienta. En la provincia de León hay una gran diversidad de nombres relacionados con el agua cuyo estudio solo se ha realizado parcialmente, a pesar de que los nombres de los grandes ríos y, en menor medida, el de los restantes cursos naturales de agua han sido abordados en distintas monografías, tanto de ámbito general como provincial, regional o local. De este abanico de posibilidades hidronímicas leonesas me ocuparé en esta ocasión solo de los hidrónimos que tienen como denominador común la corriente de agua, con independencia del caudal y del flujo continuo o discontinuo, los cursos naturales de agua, a fin de avanzar un dibujo de la fisonomía hidronímica leonesa, identificando y analizando una parte importante de los tipos léxicos que se han utilizado en la designación de estos cursos de agua, tal como aparecen en la cartografía oficial, así como de los procedimientos lingüísticos, morfológicos, sintácticos y semánticos, empleados.

Authors: Jangra Mahesh , Parashar Atul , Gupta Tarush
Published: April 2024

Restoration of tactile sensation after reconstruction of a thumb pulp defect is important for hand function. We have evaluated the functional, sensory and aesthetic outcomes of neurotized first dorsal metacarpal artery (FDMA) flap in reconstruction of various soft tissue defects of the thumb. For a period of 18 months (January 2021 to June 2022), a total of 20 patients were considered for the study and divided into two groups that is neurotized (group A) and conventional (group B) FDMA flaps. One flap in each group underwent complete necrosis. Results were compared with patients treated by the conventional Foucher’s FDMA flap without nerve repair. At the final follow-up, flap sensation was assessed using static two-point discrimination and Semmes–Weinstein monofilament (SWM) testing. The mean values for active range of motion, total time for procedure, average time to return to routine work and time period of cortical reorientation were statistically significantly different from the values in the control group (p value <0.05). 2-PD, SWM and cold severity score were found to be statistically non-significant. Neurotized FDMA island flap provides a stable, sensate and reliable option for sensory reconstruction of thumb pulp defects with earlier cortical reorientation that allows easier physical rehabilitation and earlier ability to return to previous work to the patients.

Published: April 2024

Background: Assessment of sperm deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) damage post varicocelectomy, has brought about new prospects in treating men with infertility. Improvements in spermatogenesis with decrease in sperm DNA damage has been demonstrated which has led to significant enhancement in fertility rates. Therefore, we evaluated the efficacy of microscopic varicocelectomy on the reduction in sperm DNA damage in concurrence to the conventional improvement of semen parameters.
Methods: All patients with a diagnosis of varicocele leading to infertility and planned for microscopic varicocelectomy from January 2013 through September 2019, were included in the study. Sperm chromatin structure assay (SCSA) was done preoperatively and at 3 and 6 months postoperatively for sperm DNA integrity assessment and the results expressed as sperm percentage DFI were compared. A p value <0.05 was considered statistically significant.
Results: 105 infertile men underwent microscopic varicocelectomy. Mean age and infertility period from the date of unprotected sex were 26.5±5.6 years and 30 months respectively. Baseline mean sperm concentration was 29 million/ml, mean progressive motility 24% and a percentage DFI ranged from 5–36% with a mean of 16%. Sperm DNA integrity improved significantly with a DFI decrease from 25±11% to 18±6%, 3 months post-surgery which was consistent at 6 months (13±5%). Sperm concentration and progressive motility increased with a mean sperm count improvement by 21.9 million/ml and mean motility by 20.3%.
Conclusions: Microscopic varicocelectomy provides durable improvement in DNA integrity and semen parameters. Sperm DNA integrity assessment using SCSA is a useful tool to demonstrate change in the semen quality post treatment.

На современном этапе развития человеческой цивилизации, неотъемлемой частью общества стали видеоигры. Данный феномен, изначально был принят как «несерьезный», «вопиющий», строго «детский». Но со временем, видеоигры настолько «выросли» из 8 битных пикселей на экране, до широкомасштабных игровых проектов, поражающих воображение, с простых сюжетов – до невероятных произведений, что стали приравниваться к новому виду искусства. Конечно же, не раз ставился вопрос, влияния этих видеоигр на мозг человека. В частности, появление нового вида спорта – киберспорта, зажгло в умах ученых ряд исследований, на тему влияния киберспорта, и вообще игр на когнитивные способности.

Метод скрытых параметров и параметрическое решение некоторых диофантовых уравнений
Authors: Артеха С.Н.
Published: April 2024

Параметрические решения для некоторых диофантовых уравнений с двумя переменными помогает найти метод скрытых параметров. Суть метода состоит в следующем. Для искомого уравнения, записанного в общем буквенном виде, мы сначала для каждой величины вводим дополнительное число параметров с помощью линейной или нелинейной их комбинации. Эти добавочные переменные позволяют найти связи между некоторыми параметрами и параметрическое решение искомого уравнения. Затем мы обнуляем введѐнную дополнительную зависимость, что для исходного уравнения означало бы всего лишь замену буквенного обозначения всех величин. Тем не менее, в результате получается упрощѐнное параметрическое решение и сохраняется найденная связь между параметрами. По сути, мы находим параметрическую связь исходного уравнения и более простого уравнения ax by = 1. Другой метод нахождения параметрической связи - возведение данного простейшего уравнения в соответствующую степень. В работе метод применѐн для параметрического решения таких диофантовых уравнений, как уравнение Пелля и родственных ему уравнений старших степеней. Также обсуждается параметризация для уравнения Делоне, уравнения Нагеля и аналогичных уравнений.

Универсальная методика информационных оценок при моделировании циклических поверхностей
Authors: Синицын С.А , Тихомирова Е.Б.
Published: April 2024

Традиционной задачей проектирования закрытых технических систем и объектов является моделирование контурных обводов и рабочих поверхностей деталей с целью их изготовления на технологическом оборудовании с числовым программным управлением. Свойства таких поверхностей определяются методом моделирования, а также составом исходных данных, включающим параметрические группы и уровень их дискретизации элементами каркаса. В качестве безразмерной обобщающей характеристики поверхности целесообразно использовать меру количества информации, которая позволяет суммировать весьма разнородные свойства и параметры поверхности с целью количественного сравнения и оценки достижимой точности моделирования. Формулы вычисления геометрической информации каркасных поверхностей также позволяют решать обратные задачи выбора исходных данных, которые обеспечивают заранее заданную точность расчета поверхности. Объектом внимания в этой статье являются широко используемые циклические и винтовые поверхности, задание которых осуществляется на основе дискретных замкнутых и открытых каркасных элементов.
