Authors: Schiffelers Tanja , Hochstenbach Laura , Kapteijns Kaya , Kietselaer Bas , Talboom-Kamp Esther , Spreeuwenberg Marieke
Published: July 2024

BACKGROUND

The healthcare sector is under significant pressure, with demand outpacing supply and multiple challenges in accessibility, affordability, and quality. The organization of current healthcare systems is unsustainable, exacerbated by labor shortages and escalating expenditures, particularly in Europe and the Netherlands. To address these issues, hospitals are increasingly adopting digital transformation strategies, leveraging technology and data-driven care to ensure the sustainability of healthcare systems. This transition, known as "digital transformation," involves the systematic implementation of digital technologies and processes.
Hospitals must integrate digital healthcare seamlessly into existing processes to achieve high-quality hybrid care. However, there is no definitive strategy for implementing these digital transformations.

OBJECTIVE

This study aims to gain insights into how Dutch hospitals organize their digital transformation, the strategies they use, and the lessons learned, to provide recommendations for other hospitals embarking on their digital transformation journeys.

METHODS

To answer the aforementioned research questions, we conducted a qualitative multicase study. A purposive sampling technique was used to select the participants of this study. A total of 11 hospitals within the Netherlands were invited to participate via an email, which also contained the informed consent. We aimed to include different types of hospitals: University hospitals and general hospitals. General hospitals can be top clinical learning hospitals (STZ) and/or part of the mProve network, an alliance of seven ambitious top clinical hospitals shaping future healthcare.

RESULTS

The aim of this study is to gain insight into how a selection of Dutch hospitals organizes their digital transformations, what strategy is used, what the experiences are and the lessons learned. Although hospitals organize their digital transformation in different ways and with different teams or departments, they all meet similar facilitators and barriers. Inspired by CFIR, the ExpandNet Scaling Up framework and the HHQA, these factors can be categorized as follows: the structure of the digital program; cultural factors within the organization; financial factors internal or external to the organization; political factors internal or external to the organization; patient needs; resources and skills; and technical factors.

CONCLUSIONS

Conclusions
This study aimed to investigate how hospitals currently organize their digital transformation, their experiences and the barriers and facilitators they encountered within this process. Overall, one can conclude that various approaches are utilized for organizing the digital transformation. However, there are also many similarities between the methods employed by different hospitals.

Authors: Jung Eulho , Kavanagh Maurice , King Elizabeth , Samuel Anita
Published: July 2024

BACKGROUND

Medical education has increasingly adopted EdTech to provide effective instruction. The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated this trend, presenting new challenges for medical students and educators, particularly in clerkship settings. Clerkship students face unique difficulties such as limited access to patients and diverse medical cases. EdTech, including virtual reality, simulators, and mobile apps, offers potential solutions by providing simulated experiences and remote access to learning resources.

OBJECTIVE

This review aims to:

Identify the EdTech tools used in clerkship education from January 2020 to January 2023.
Evaluate the outcomes of using such technology in clerkship education.
Discuss the challenges associated with utilizing EdTech in this context​

METHODS

A rapid review was conducted following guidelines by Tricco et al. (2017) and PRISMA standards. The search included databases like Medline, Embase, and Web of Science for English-language peer-reviewed empirical studies. Inclusion criteria focused on studies in clerkship environments involving medical students. A total of 1717 citations were screened, resulting in 35 studies included for analysis.

RESULTS

The review found that virtual reality (31.4%), learning platforms (14.2%), video-conferencing tools (11.4%), and mobile technologies (8.5%) were commonly used. These technologies served various purposes such as content delivery, interactive instruction, and assessment. Key advantages included authenticity, engagement, and remote learning. Challenges included the availability of technology, lack of hands-on experience, and high costs. Evaluation of these technologies showed positive learning outcomes, increased engagement, and improved learner satisfaction​.

CONCLUSIONS

The integration of EdTech in clerkship education has shown promising results, enhancing learning outcomes and student satisfaction. However, challenges such as technological availability, cost, and lack of hands-on experience need to be addressed. Careful planning, collaboration, and alignment with curriculum objectives are essential for the effective implementation of EdTech in medical education. Future research should focus on long-term effects and broader implications of these technologies in clinical education.

Management of different types of postamputation residual limb pain amid full scale war
Authors: Bohdan I.S. , Bohdan A.I. , Plakhtyr Z.O.
Published: July 2024

Background. Up to 50–80 % of military service members suffer from postamputation pain. Residual limb pain significantly postpones prosthetic surgery, recovery, employability, negatively impacts rehabilitation and military duty performance. The purpose was to study residual limb pain types in military personnel after traumatic amputation and efficacy of methods for their treatment. Materials and methods. A randomized cross-sectional study was performed of 231 military service members with residual limb pain after combat traumatic amputation, who underwent surgical treatment in tertiary and quaternary level military medical center between 2022 and 2024 amid full-scale war. Results. Somatic residual limb pain was observed in 36.36 % of enrolled patients, which was mainly caused by heterotopic ossification (30.74 %). 41.13 % of amputees experienced neuropathic pain due to neuromas. Pain syndrome in 22.51 % of patients resulted from both somatic causes and neuromas. Prosthesis-associated pain as a type of somatic pain was observed in 17.32 % of individuals. This study found that the persistence or recurrence of neuropathic pain among patients from the group of lidocaine-alcohol injection for painful neuromas was significantly lower (Pα = 0.013) at 6-month follow-up compared to the simple neuroma resection group. During 3 months after regenerative peripheral nerve interface, which was performed for 25 terminal neuromas, no pain recurrence was observed. Conclusions. It is important to assume the presence of one or both pain types in a patient with residual limb pain: somatic and/or neuropathic. Simple neuroma resections lead to an undesirably high reoperation rate — 21.79 ± 4.86 % of persistent painful neuromas. Lidocaine-alcohol injections are sufficiently simple and effective (8.70 ± 3.26 % of reinjections) in the treatment of neuropathic pain caused by terminal neuromas. Regenerative peripheral nerve interface is promising in the treatment and prevention of symptomatic neuroma.

Published: July 2024

A private and large corporation typically owns and manages the digital platform, positioning merchants in traditional markets solely as providers of goods. This practice distances merchants from additional advantages offered by the platform and excludes them from the decision-making process. This paper explores the strength of social capital in enhancing opportunities for small economic actors, such as merchants in traditional markets, to benefit from the digital economy through a community-based online market platform, thus overcoming this challenge. Employing a qualitative descriptive research method with a case study approach, data were obtained through interviews, documentation, and focus group discussions. This paper demonstrates that social capital mitigates the challenge of financial capital in leveraging digital economy innovations, enriching the discourse on the interconnectedness between social relations and economic development in community-based settings like traditional markets.

Authors: Pérez Domínguez Josué Federico
Published: July 2024

Durante la última oleada del movimiento feminista en México, la presencia y el protagonismo de mujeres anarquistas del denominado “Bloque Negro” cobró gran relevancia. Comprender el sentido de sus prácticas y de sus reivindicaciones discursivas es fundamental para evitar estigmatizarlas y criminalizarlas. La presente investigación se realizó entre 2017 y 2020 en la Ciudad de México, utilizando una perspectiva teórico-metodológica que abreva de la Teoría del Actor-Red, la etnografía posmoderna y una orientación ético-política de investigaciónacción militante. El presente trabajo, busca comprobar cómo conciben su práctica política las mujeres anarco-feministas, como una respuesta legítima en contra de las múltiples violencias de la sociedad patriarcal capitalista; y cómo la autogestión, la autodefensa y la acción directa son ejes de una praxis política que está trastocando los márgenes de lo legal y lo políticamente correcto, que apunta a la transformación radical de la sociedad, y a redefinir las relaciones de género vigentes.
Entre a Cruz e a Estrela de David: O Papel dos Senadores da Frente Parlamentar Evangélica no Contexto do Sionismo Cristão no Brasil no pós 7 de outubro
Authors: Hartmann Arturo , Rossi Shamira
Published: July 2024

Este artigo analisa o comportamento digital dos senadores da Frente Parlamentar Evangélica (FPE) do Brasil em relação ao sionismo cristão e à questão palestino-israelense no período pós-7 de outubro. O objetivo é contribuir para a compreensão da relação entre a extrema direita brasileira e o movimento do sionismo cristão, especialmente neste momento marcante no confronto colonial entre palestinos e israelenses, no qual testemunhamos um genocídio. A análise das postagens dos senadores no Instagram revela uma relação afetiva com Israel, mas também evidencia uma possível influência da polarização política no posicionamento desses parlamentares. Dividindo o período de análise em dois momentos-chave, o estudo destaca a continuidade desses padrões de comportamento. Conclui-se que, embora exista uma conexão emocional com Israel, essa afetividade não é exclusivamente motivada pela religiosidade cristã, mas também é influenciada pelo contexto político brasileiro. Este trabalho representa um ponto de partida para futuras pesquisas sobre as relações entre política, religião e geopolítica no Brasil contemporâneo.

Published: July 2024

The purpose of the study is to analyze of geographical terms in early variants of the Tale of the Battle on the Kalka River (mainly the Novgorod First and Ipatiev Chronicle with the Laurentian Codex partially), and to identify of mentioned points and build a route of Russian-Polovtsian troops to the battlefield and in the opposite direction. Research materials are the Russian chronicles with the Tale of the Battle on the Kalka River. Methods of the study: Early and late chronicles are compared with each other for detection of the late textual layers. Localization of individual geographical items are checked by archaeological data. Key opinions of historians are considered in every discussed theme. Research results and scientific novelty: As a result, a logical picture of the allied troops route emerges: they joined forces near Zarub town and Varyazhskiy island, then followed down the Dnieper till rapids, crossed the river, and walked along the divide to the Karatysh and Kalchik rivers before they lost the battle and retreated back to Dnieper river. With added chronology data to these observations, the possibility of creating of events´ scientific reconstruction will possibly emerge.
Alans in the Southern Song campaign of Kaan and Emperor Khublai 1267–1273
Authors: Kaziev Eduard V. ,   Institute of History and Archaeology of the Republic of North Ossetia-Alania
Published: July 2024

The article deals with the main military operations of the Mongolian troops against the Southern Song Empire, which occurred in 1267–1273 during the reign of Khaan and Emperor, Kublai. An analysis of the information from the sources regarding the participation of Alanian warriors in this campaign formed the novelty of the research. The relevance of the study is determined by the lack of the researches that consider the participation of the Alans in specific military operations that formed the Mongol campaigns to conquer the Southern Song Empire. The objective of the research was to present the circumstances of the participation of the Alans in the main operations of the campaign. The relevant information contained in the various sections of the official chronicles of the Chinese imperial Song and Yuan dynasties, as well as the chronicles of Rashid al-din and Marco Polo’s narrative were the materials of the research. As a result, it was ascertained that the “History of Yuan” contains information about five Alanian commanders that took part in the campaign, the main military operations among which were the siege and capture of the strategically important city-fortress Xiangyang, as well as raids deep into the territory of Song. Besides, the presentation of the general course of the campaign events made it possible to eliminate the discrepancies between the information from the “History of Yüan” relating to the description of the participation of the Alanian commanders in the military operations of the campaign, and the translations of this information presented in the scientific tradition. The study allows one to assert that the Alanian commanders and their guards units participated in the most important military operations that made up the Mongolian Southern Song campaign of 1267–1273.

Published: July 2024

A higher rank valuation is a function that maps a ﬁeld to the union of an ordered abelian group and inﬁnity. There are studies that have shown that Kapranov’s theorem still holds when the valuation is of rank n > 1 and the rank n tropicalization of a d-dimensional variety is a polyhedral complex of dimension nd, etc. This thesis aims to focus on higher rank valuation, we present a method about how to reduce a higher rank valuation to a sequence of classic valuations. With this method, we can describe the structure of the tropicalization over a higher rank valuation in terms of rank 1 tropicalisations, which will help us to reprove Kapranov’s theorem in an alternative way.

Neste ensaio, mostramos as implicações do silêncio em sua relação com o poder no filme Persona de Ingmar Bergman (1966). Parimos do pressuposto de que o silêncio funciona, na obra, como atualização de formas de poder e resistência nas linhas de força que compõem as relações entre as personagens. Para tal, nos valemos de alguns pressupostos teórico-metodológicos dos estudos discursivos foucaultianos. A importância deste estudo reside na relativização da ideia de que o poder silencia, mostrando que, em tempos de hegemonia de extração de mais-valor das atividades simbólicas, o poder faz falar. Os resultados nos mostram que quem fala faz-saber e, ao mesmo tempo, que quem cala pode-não-fazer-saber e ainda pode-fazer-não-saber. Concluímos que o poder se esconde na potencialidade que se desenvolve no bojo do silêncio. O saber é própria atualização daquilo que se ouve e aquilo que se vê, atualização que gera a potencialidade do poder a quem vê e ouve.

One of the fundamental roles of textbooks is to organize content systematically so that students may acquire it quickly and correctly. By using textbooks, teachers may ensure that all of their pupils are exposed to the same material so that they can be assessed similarly. The study's methodology combined a content analysis method with a qualitative approach. Data was gathered by making an observation and keeping a record. This study's main goals are to assess textbook quality in line with the standards for good English textbooks and to make it simpler for instructors to evaluate the textbooks they are already using as consumers of textbooks.

Learning is a process of interaction between students and teachers with learning materials, delivery methods, learning strategies, and learning resources in a learning environment. Usually the Indonesian people know that the learning process is a process that is carried out in schools. However, it's different now. The world has created a new history, including changes in the learning system and order. This is caused by the emergence of كوفيد-19 which requires all forms of activities including learning to be carried out from home, one of which is learning Arabic which involves the role of parents in it. This study aims to describe parental involvement in the process of learning Arabic during the كوفيد-19 pandemic taking place in class III MIS Al Jihad Palangka Raya.

Evaluation of the Importance of English as a Foreign Language in Elementary Schools in Indonesia
Authors: Rahmah Adinda Aulia
Published: July 2024

Currently, the language of instruction in the field of international relations is English. Given the growing number of schools that integrate English in their curricula, this has a strong propensity to rise. The importance of English today is such that it is required in many different spheres of life. According to Panggabean (2015), Indonesia's use of English appears to be highly significant at first glance because it is taught in schools from pre-kindergarten to graduate level and because many universities demand the TOEFL for admission and graduation. However, rather than being used as a tool for communication, English is still seen as a branch of knowledge distinct from other topics and as a foreign tongue. In this context, English in Indonesia refers to English as a Foreign Language (EFL), rather than English as a Second Language (ESL). This demonstrates that English is not prioritized in Indonesia. English is only taught in schools in Indonesia; it is not utilized frequently. Because of this, English is typically taught as a foreign language in Indonesia. In addition to these issues, Indonesian language politics have given English a worsening position with the removal of English classes from the elementary school curriculum in 2013.

This review article examines the initial incidences stemming from the emergence of the COVID-19 disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. The various developments and concepts of COVID-19 disease and the SARS-CoV-2 virus have also been covered. Financial and administrative issues prevented the Tokyo 2020 Olympics from occurring as planned due to the outbreak. As of May 28, 2020, before the Olympic schedule (July 24–August 9, 2020), 5.7 million people had contracted the virus, leading to 355,000 deaths globally. The virus spread, causing deaths that led to the suspension of international travel. The article also discusses SARS-CoV-2 testing, treatment, and vaccine development. The initial phase-wise development and final preparation of vaccines and drugs by companies and research organizations have been mentioned. Experts recommended following well-known 3Cs protocols (avoiding closed spaces and crowded places and contacts) and using a three-layer surgical mask to stop the spread of the virus. In the Dharavi slum (Mumbai, India), no new infections were reported during the second and most damaging Delta wave due to generation of herd immunity among slum dwellers. During the initial Wuhan outbreak, up to 75% of people in the slums developed antibodies from natural infection, which helped prevent further surges. Recently published “Health Index Theory,” which claims that states with better health infrastructure had more infections than those with poor infrastructure, explained why the normalized caseload (per million) varied in different Indian states. Kerala, a state with advanced healthcare infrastructure, reported a higher caseload than Uttar Pradesh, a state with poor health facilities, according to India’s health index. The main text of the article discusses the virus’s ability to survive in different environments and methods for sanitization to help control virus transmission. The cited reference provides additional details. Transmission occurs among humans, between humans and pets, and among pets living together. There was no outbreak due to reverse zoonotic transmission.

With the extreme drought attacking the Horn of Africa continuously for the past few years, more than 22 million people are facing famine and are in danger of starvation. According to the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), it is the worst drought occurring in all of East Africa in 60 years. Countries affected by the drought are Somalia, Djibouti, Ethiopia, Kenya, Uganda and neighboring countries. In most rural areas, lack of access to sufficient power has aggravated the disastrous conditions. In this investigation, a small East Ethiopian village of 500 inhabitants was analysed to determine the water required for drinking, personal hygiene as well as food production. A sustainable power source was identified and selected for the purpose of powering a water pump as well as providing nightly lighting for this village. Sustainable funding sources were also considered. Total system cost including a wind turbine system, pumps, piping, water storage tank, battery storage system, backup diesel generator and fuel tank as well as the solar lighting system was estimated at about USD 90,000.
