Background

Transcutaneous spinal stimulation (TSS) is emerging as a valuable tool for electrophysiological and clinical assessments.

Objective

The objectives of this study were to investigate: (1) TSS above and below a spinal cord injury (SCI) lesion results in different recruitment pattern of upper limb (UL) motor pools compared to neurologically intact subjects (NIS), and (2) the relationship between recruitment pattern of UL motor pools and neurological and functional status in individuals with SCI. Methods: Eleven NIS and six participants with cervical SCI were recruited in this study. We compared spinally evoked motor potentials in UL muscles during TSS delivered to the cervical spinal cord between the spinous process of C3-C4 and C7-T1 vertebrae.

Results

As expected, TSS delivered over the cervical spinal cord in NIS can preferentially activate proximal and distal muscles along the rostrocaudal axis, as well as ipsilateral UL muscles along the mediolateral axis. However, in participants with SCI, the responses registered in UL muscles innervated by motor pools above and below the lesion demonstrated different recruitment compared to NIS, and were dependent on the level, extent, and side of SCI.

Conclusions

The spatial map obtained from assessing evoked potentials above and below the lesion contributes to the comprehensive understanding of the viability and function of specific UL motor pools, and can be utilized to monitor changes in recruitment patterns of the UL motor pools during neurorehabilitation interventions after SCI.

Background

It is essential that individuals with spinal cord injury set their goals prior to their peripheral nerve transfer (PNT) surgery. Goal setting is a significant factor in pre-operative planning and is one way in which we can track performance and outcomes for these patients.

Objectives

To describe goal types identified by patients managed in the PNT-SCI rehab program at Lyndhurst-UHN. Cite and report the COPM outcomes in the domains of Self-care and Productivity.

Methods

A retrospective case series was conducted (n=14), charts were reviewed for type of goals and patient’s perception of goal attainment using COPM for a case series of three patients with tetraplegia who received PNT-SCI surgery and comprehensive rehabilitation. The changes in COPM are reported from baseline to 12 months post-surgery. Each patient identified three goals pre-surgery; their goals and the COPM were used to measure change over time.

Results

Ninety two percent of the identified goals were in the area of Self Care, and 8% were in the Productivity areas. Two of the patients who received PNT-SCI rehabilitation had an increase of 1 on the COPM, while one individual regressed by 2 points. That individual did not receive comprehensive rehabilitation.

Conclusion

It is known that recovery after PNT-SCI surgery can take 24 or more months. We reported COPM change scores at 12 months post surgery. The MCID is two points for COPM, ideally over 24 months we will see MCID of three or higher.

Background/Objectives

This workshop aims to overview degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM), which is the most common cause of non-traumatic spinal cord injury across the world. DCM is estimated to affect approximately 1 in 50 adults; however, < 10% receive a diagnosis, and lifelong disability remains a common outcome. Upon completion of this workshop, attendees will (1) understand the diagnostic criteria and investigations for DCM and avoid misdiagnosis in the primary care level; (2) recognise the indications and role of surgical treatment; (3) comprehend the impact of prehabilitation and rehabilitation; (4) understand the alternatives for non-operative management of DCM; and (5) appreciate the importance of raising awareness of this disease.

Methods/Overview

This workshop will review the diagnostic criteria and investigations for individuals with different degrees of DCM, the current clinical practice guidelines for management of DCM with focus on the role of surgical decompression of spinal cord, the role of prehabilitation and rehabilitation, current non-operative options for patients with DCM, and some initiatives focused on raising awareness of this disease.

Results

This workshop will include lectures (10-15 minutes each) with illustrative cases followed by open discussion on the following topics: (i) diagnosis, misdiagnosis and investigations in DCM; (ii) surgical management of DCM; (iii) prehabilitation and rehabilitation in DCM; and (iv) non-operative management of DCM.

Conclusions

Although DCM is the most common cause of non-traumatic spinal cord disease, there is a need for the development of a tailored and multi-disciplinary care framework for management of DCM, which would improve patients’ outcomes. Greater awareness of DCM among healthcare professionals is urged to avoid misdiagnosis and mitigate the long-term consequences of this disease.

Background

Multi-morbidity is common in persons with spinal cord injury (SCI). Network Analysis is a tool used to visualize and estimate complex relationships among variables. Three network models: Gaussian Graphical Model, Ising model, and Mixed Graphical Model were applied to the 2011-2012 Canadian SCI Community Survey dataset, which included individuals with traumatic and non-traumatic SCI. Data utilized included demographic and injury data as we well as 30 secondary health conditions (comorbidities and secondary complication) that are included in the Multi-Morbidity Index (MMI-30). Five health outcomes were included: healthcare utilization (HCU), health status (i.e. Short Form-12 physical and mental component summary (SF-12 PCS & MCS) score), life satisfaction, and quality of life. Using Network Analysis, we reduced the number of items in the Multi-Morbidity Index (MMI-30) by 5 items (MMI-25) and the psychometric properties were comparable.

This interactive workshop will include presentations from a clinician, researcher and person with lived experience (PLEX).

Objective

The goals of this workshop are to:

Conclusion

This workshop will demonstrate the benefit of using Network Analysis, a type of Machine Learning, in SCI research. Specifically, the example of how Network Analysis identified key associations among 30 secondary health conditions and five health outcomes which resulted in the MMI-25 will be discussed as well as future opportunities for using Network Analysis and other Machine Learning methodologies in SCI research.

Published: December 2023

Potato is grown almost everywhere, mainly in areas with a temperate climate and the most favorable weather conditions for the growth and development of this crop. Various varieties of potatoes are also grown throughout the Astrakhan region, but the very harsh arid climate of natural conditions, as well as soils with low humus content, significantly affect the productivity of this crop.

The use of improved agricultural technologies for cultivating various varieties of early potato is today a very important area in vegetable growing in the Lower Volga region. In this connection the search for modern resource-saving agrotechnological methods for cultivating early potatoes, which would contribute to high yields at lower production costs, is very relevant.

Therefore, the main goal of the research is to study the features of early potato yield formation when using pre-planting soaking of tubers using Azotovit, Phosphatovit and Baykam EM 1 preparations on the background of various irrigation rates of 4600 m3/ha and 5200 m3/ha. The studies were carried out on an irrigated land use plot of the FSBSI «PAFSC RAS» in the period from 2019 to 2021. In the experiment generally accepted agricultural technology was used in accordance with zonal recommendations for cultivating early potato in the Lower Volga region.

Relevant studies and measurements were carried out in accordance with the requirements of the field experiment methodology and research methods for potato crops.

Experimental studies established that over the period of a three-year study, the minimum water consumption coefficient of 110.05 m3/t was obtained in the option with an irrigation rate of 5200 m3/ ha, in the option with treatment of tubers before planting in Azotovit preparation, while this option turned out to be the most profitable in studying. The yield in this option was 56.0 t/ha with a total cost of 489.1 thousand rubles. The cost was equal to 8.7 thousand rubles per 1 ton, net income 630.9 thousand rubles per 1 hectare. With such indicators, production profitability amounted to 129.0%.

THEORETICAL ASPECT OF PERSONNEL ADAPTATION
Authors: Primbetova Saule
Published: December 2023

This article reveals the theoretical aspects of the basic concept of personnel adaptation as the most important task of personnel management. In the order of occurrence of all scientific concepts, a complete analysis of various interpretations of domestic and foreign researchers are carried out. In addition, new characteristic features of the content are identified, the main goals and main tasks of adaptation are determined in the opinion of all employees and the organization as a whole.
One of the most relevant research topics in the field of human resource management is currently the adaptation of employees accepted into the organization. However, before talking about the methods of building a system for the introduction of personnel into a position and a team, developing trainings and numerous training programs, it is necessary to determine what the essence of this concept is.
Currently, personnel adaptation is the main component of a personnel management system. The adaptation process itself is controlled and aimed at adapting all new employees to the main culture of the organization, to the entire internal order of the organization, as well as to all the specific requirements and expectations that this company offers, to their main place of work.
In addition, adaptation reduces not only a certain amount of time, but also the financial costs of mastering the workplace and independent work with maximum efficiency. Consequently, the adaptation process is effective for both management and employees.
Therefore, we can say that this issue is very important in management. Accordingly, all issues of personnel adaptation in the workplace are the main problem for any company, since personnel acts as the main technology. This technology is implemented thanks to a certain personnel policy and is approved by the organization.
The results of the research presented in the article can be used to create systems for personnel adaptation of various commercial enterprises. Thus, for a more detailed development of this topic, it is envisaged to assess the impact of the organized process of personnel adaptation in order to preserve and develop the levels of corporate culture of the company, as well as to stabilize and improve the socio-psychological climate in the organization.
The proposed article reveals the features of the “adaptation” category, and also presents the principles according to which mechanisms for introducing new employees should be developed.

To continue to grow in the face of declining and aging populations, high- and middle-income countries have three options: increase migration, use more automation, and retain and attract older workers into the labor force. Restrictions on the number of migrants countries are willing to absorb, and limits on the impact of automation on productivity in post-industrial economies make the third option the most economically and politically viable in many settings.

The study investigated teachers’ attrition and students’ academic performance in public and private secondary schools in Ondo West Local Government Area of Ondo State, Nigeria. Descriptive research design of survey type was adopted. The stratified random sampling technique was used. 10 public and 10 private secondary schools were selected through purposive and stratified sampling technique. Two research questions and two hypotheses guided the study. Data were collected through the use of a validated “Teacher Attrition Descriptive Questionnaire” (TADQ) with a reliability of r = 0.92, and a proforma of students’ academic performance. Data were analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Findings revealed that there was high extent of teacher attrition in public and private secondary schools in Ondo West Local Government Area of Ondo State. Also, it was found that the level of students’ academic performance was moderate in both types of school. Again, findings revealed that there was a negative significant relationship between teacher attrition and students’ academic performance in public and private secondary schools in Ondo West Local Government and there was no significant difference in the extent of teacher attrition between public and private secondary schools in study area. Based on the findings, the recommendation were: Better services and good welfare packages should be made available for teachers so as to reduce teacher attrition rate and paying attention to teachers by giving them equal regards like other professions would increase their retention.

Recent study has paid much attention in the areas of renewable energy (solar and wind) as an alternative method to derive electrical power rather than going by fossil fuels (coal, natural gases etc.) which constantly emits carbon dioxide and other harmful substances into the atmosphere. The emission of these undesirable harmful substances into the atmosphere have caused climatic changes for example global warming, acid rain, low precipitations and unwanted desert encroachment. These badly affect the quality life of humans and animals. In response to these problems, methods of reducing carbon content emissions become necessary through the use of renewable energy sources (Photovoltaic system, Wind power, Fuel cell etc.). As a result, research on grid-connected inverter have recently become a very hot topic as a means of interfacing renewable energy sources to utility grid. With good interfacing, the renewable energy sources can be able to solve not only the problem of carbon emissions into the atmosphere but also to efficiently support the grid from increased demand of electrical power. Thus, this research has focused on designing a constraint current controller for grid-connected inverter using linear quadratic regulations (LQR) method. The idea of using LQR control design as opposed to classical PI controller is that The LQR provides optimal current control by careful tuning of the input and state weighting matrices and therefore systematic control design can be achieved. Another advantage of LQR method is that constraint handling can be address through an offline optimization technique. This is necessary in order to protect the inverter system components (semiconductor switches) and improve its reliability.

The rate of unemployment among Nigerian youths is alarming and this unfortunate situation has led many youths to involve in various forms of crimes such as armed robbery, banditry, kidnapping, human trafficking, insurgency, to mention but a few. Though, governments at all levels are trying to minimize unemployment scenario through different interventions, such as poverty alleviation, agriculture anchor programme, trainings of youths on different technical programmes and so on. This paper proposes an ICT based framework for youth empowerment in Nigeria so as to complements the existing efforts on the joblessness. The paper x-rayed concept of ICT, youth empowerments and unemployment. It was also explained in the paper the causes of unemployment in Nigeria and governments efforts to reduce unemployment to barest minimum. The paper provides some recommendations, such as, provision of interest-free loans by federal government to youths who are willing to stand on their own for self-reliant and employer of labour in the nearest future.

Urbanisation and industry necessitate a substantial amount of energy, which increases the urgency of this issue. This study used the Ordinary Least Square (OLS) method to analyse the influence of urbanisation and industrialization on energy use in Nigeria from 1981 to 2021. A positive and statistically significant effect of urbanisation on the usage of renewable and nonrenewable energy sources has been observed in empirical studies. It was also discovered that industrialization positively influenced the utilisation of both renewable and nonrenewable energy sources, though the former just marginally so and the latter far more so statistically. Furthermore, trade openness positively impacted non-renewable energy use while having no effect on renewable energy use. The usage of renewable energy increased substantially during periods of economic expansion, while the use of nonrenewable energy decreased significantly over these same periods. Because of the current trend in urbanisation and industry, power generation should be a top concern.

This study examined the pattern and distribution of rainfall in the year, 2021 in Ikwuano local Government Area, of Abia State, Nigeria. Data were from secondary sources and analyzed with descriptive statistics. Results showed that the first four (4) months of the year recorded very poor amounts of rainfall. The highest peak of rainfall was recorded in the month of August. The result also showed absence of “August break”. There was absence of double maxima in the months of July and August and heavy downpours were experienced between the months of July and September. Recommendations, among others, include that farmers should shift the planting period of some crops, crops that do not require much water to thrive well should not be cultivated between the months of July and September and farmers should cultivate “edible cover crops as must crops.”
