Authors: Park Seongeun , Shin Ji Cheol , Cho Kye Hee , Im Sang Hee
Published: September 2023

Here, we report the case of a 62-year-old man with herpes zoster-related phrenic nerve palsy, which was evident in clinical, radiological, and electrodiagnostic studies. To aid clinical recovery and preserve pulmonary function, we designed a home-based pulmonary rehabilitation program consisting of air-stacking exercises using ambu-bagging, respiratory muscle training to improve the strength and endurance of inspiratory and expiratory muscles, and aerobic and resistance exercises of the upper and lower limbs to improve and prevent the decline of cardiorespiratory fitness. The patient was monitored, and the exercises were adjusted through regular outpatient follow-up. During the overall follow-up period of 26 months, pulmonary rehabilitation led to an increase in forced vital capacity from 2,020 to 3,160 mL, and improved the diaphragmatic height index from -4.46 to 0.28. Clinical symptoms also showed notable improvement, as the Borg Rating of Perceived Exertion scale score decreased from 17 to 7. We found that a home-based, self-performed pulmonary rehabilitation program could promote recovery from herpes zoster-related phrenic nerve palsy. Not only is this important for the rapid restoration of respiratory function and symptomatic relief, it can also protect patients from respiratory complications.

Background: The painDETECT questionnaire (PDQ) is a useful tool for screening of patients with neuropathic pain. This study aimed to translate the PDQ into the Malay language (PDQ-M) and to achieve cross-cultural adaptation of the questionnaire for use in Malaysia.
Methods: The translation and cultural adaptation process of the English version of PDQ was performed based on international guidelines. Subsequently, 97 patients with neuropathic and nociceptive pain based on clinician’s diagnoses were recruited to complete three-type numeric rating scale (NRS) of pain followed by PDQ-M.
Results: On the basis of cognitive debriefing, several changes of the translated PDQ-M were made. A total of 53 patients with neuropathic pain and 44 with nociceptive pain (54.6% females, 45.4% males, mean age 52.4 years ± 14.2) were recruited into this study. The most common class of analgesia prescribed for patients with neuropathic pain was anti-convulsant, whereas co-analgesic therapy, which includes NSAID and COX-2 inhibitor, was the most prescribed for patients with nociceptive pain. Combination analgesia was used in 32.1% of those with neuropathic pain, and 11.4% of patients with nociceptive pain. The median time taken for respondents to complete the questionnaire was 420 seconds. In regression analysis, active smoking (beta 0.586, p<0.001) and female gender (beta -0.422, p=0.008) were associated with higher PDQ-M scores only among those with neuropathic pain.
Conclusions: The Malay version of the painDETECT questionnaire was translated and cross-culturally adapted for ease of understanding among the local population via careful face-to-face interview.

Published: September 2023

El reconocimiento y visibilización de la mujer a través del lenguaje inclusivo que, desde las aulas se fomente como pleno derecho de generar entonos de equidad, es un reto que hay que asumir desde la docencia. El objetivo de la investigación que se propone está orientado a mostrar como los recursos lingüísticos que pueden usar los y las docentes en su diario trabajo en el aula por medio de la palabra escrita y verbal ayudan a combatir la violencia de género asociada al derecho de la mujer a la diferencia e igualdad. La metodología se sustenta en una investigación bibliográfica y documental que sirve de base para la aplicación de instrumentos de recolección de datos cuantitativos aplicados a 91 estudiantes y 8 tutores y tutoras de prácticas comunitarias. Los hallazgos de la investigación evidencian que el lenguaje utilizado reproduce desigualdades entre mujeres y hombres, y anima a la asignación de roles profesionales marcados por el género lo que inconscientemente incide en que las mujeres incursionen en ciertos campos profesionales. Las y los docentes tienen en sus aulas la oportunidad de construir espacios libres de violencia de género utilizando la herramienta poderosa de la palabra oral y escrita.

This study aims to determine optimal raw material purchasing planning using the EOQ (Economic Order Quantity) approach at the Somber Berkah Sukosari Dagangan Madiun Regency company and to provide input regarding planning and controlling raw material inventory so that it has the potential to increase profit efficiency in the company. This study uses a quantitative descriptive method. The descriptive analysis technique used to analyze data regarding the problem of planning and controlling raw materials to optimize company profits is to use the EOQ (Economic Order Quantity), TIC (Total Inventory Cost), Safety Stock, Reorder Point, MI (Maximum Inventory) methods. From the research results it is known that the purchase of raw materials using the EOQ method total raw material inventory is less than using the method used by the company today. Besides, the frequency of purchasing raw materials using the EOQ method is smaller than using the company's method. In addition, there are also safety stocks, reorder points and MI (Maximum Inventory) that have been calculated, so that they can anticipate excess or shortage of raw material supplies. Therefore the EOQ method is very important to be applied in companies in order to achieve more optimal company profits.

We propose the concept of diophantine Q-neutrosophic subbisemiring(DioQNSBS), level sets of DioQNSBS of a bisemiring. The idea of DioQNSBS is an extension of fuzzy subbisemiring over bisemiring. Exploring the concept for DioQNSBS over bisemiring. Let H be the diophantine Q-neutrosophic subset in D, prove H = ⟨(Γ_H^T,Γ_H^I,Γ_H^F ), (ΛH, ΞH, ΦH )⟩ is a DioQNSBS of D if and only if all non empty level set H(t,s) is a subbisemiring of D for t, s ∈ [0, 1]. Let H be the DioQNSBS of a bisemiring D and M be the strongest diophantine Q-neutrosophic relation (SDioQNSR)of D, we notice H is a DioQNSBS of D if and only if M is a DioQNSBS of D × D. Let H1, H2, ..., Hn be the family of DioQNSBSs of D1, D2, ..., Dn respectively, prove H1 × H2 × ... × Hn is a DioQNSBS of D1 × D2 × ... × Dn. The homomorphic image of DioQNSBS is a DioQNSBS. The homomorphic preimage of DioQNSBS is a DioQNSBS. Illustrations are presented to demonstrate results.

Authors: COŞKUN Burhan , TÜRK KAYA Sezin , AYDIN Yavuz Mert , İFŞA İsmail , GÜNDÜZ Seniha , KILIÇARSLAN Hakan
Published: September 2023

Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the impact of using video as an educational tool in the
informed consent process for retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) on patient understanding, satisfaction,
and preferences compared to traditional written consent forms.
Material and Methods: A total of 114 patients scheduled for RIRS participated in this study. After reading
informed consent, participants completed a questionnaire assessing their baseline knowledge about the
RIRS procedure. They then watched an educational video about the procedure and completed a post-video
questionnaire to assess changes in knowledge and preferences between written and video-based informed
consent.
Results: The results demonstrated that incorporating a video into the informed consent process led to
significant improvements in patients’ knowledge about the RIRS procedure (p<0.001). A majority of
participants (94.5%) found the video presentation to be more helpful than the written consent form and
preferred it over the traditional method. Additionally, the use of video was associated with increased
confidence in making informed decisions about the procedure. The majority of participants found the
video to be easily accessible and comprehensible, which contributed to their overall satisfaction.
Conclusion: Video-enhanced informed consent process can be a valuable addition to the standard
informed consent process in clinical practice. By providing easily accessible and comprehensible information,
healthcare providers can better meet patients’ needs and improve the overall quality of care. This approach
may lead to better patient outcomes, increased trust in healthcare providers, and a more patient-centered
approach to medical care.
The Role of Scoring Systems in Predicting Surgical Success in Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy: Results from a Single Center
Authors: ŞAM Emre , GÜNER Ekrem
Published: September 2023

Objective: In this study, we aimed to determine the effectiveness of Guy’s score, S.T.O.N.E score, and CROES
nomogram, the most widely used models in percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PNL) for predicting stone-free
status, and to determine which model predicts stone-free status more successfully.
Materials and Methods: The data of patients older than 18 years of age who underwent PNL for kidney
stones at our tertiary academic center between 2009 and 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. Examined
parameters included the demographic data of patients, stone characteristics, Guy’s score, S.T.O.N.E. score,
CROES nomogram, surgical duration, transfusion rate, length of stay, and stone-free status. Prediction
values for stone-free status were determined using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis.
Results: A total of 200 patients were included in the study. The mean age of the patients was 43.7 ± 14.6
years. The mean stone scores of the patients were as follows: Guy’s score: 2.11 ± 1.01; S.T.O.N.E. score: 7.54
± 1.73; and CROES nomogram: 194 ± 62.7. The stone-free rate was determined to be 66%. The Guy’s and
S.T.O.N.E. scores were significantly higher, and the CROES nomogram was significantly lower in non-stonefree
patients compared to stone-free patients (p<0.001, p<0.001, and p<0.001, respectively). The cut-off
value and area under curve (AUC) were 2.5 and 0.770 for Guy’s score, 7.5 and 0.722 for S.T.O.N.E score, and
185 and 0.843 for CROES nomogram, respectively.
Conclusion: Guy’s score, S.T.O.N.E score, and CROES nomogram are effective models in predicting stonefree
status in PNL.
Comparison of Success and Complication Rates of Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy Operations According to Kidney Stone Localization
Authors: TAŞKIRAN Mehmet , DOGAN Kazım
Published: September 2023

Objective: Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PNL) is first-line treatment modality for large and complex
stones, however it is associated with potential morbidity and severe complications. Therefore, we aimed to
evaluate the success and complication rates according to stone localization in large sample group following
PNL.
Material and Methods: Total number of 782 patients who underwent PNL, were included in this
retrospective multicenter study. Patients were divided into two major groups; simple stones group (upper
pole, pelvis, lower pole) and complex stones group (partial staghorn, multi-caliceal, pelvis+lower pole,
complete staghorn). Surgery time, fluoroscopy time, complications, hospitalization and nephrostomy
catheter removal day were recorded.
Results: In our study, 525 cases (67.1%) had simple stones, 257 (32.9%) complex stones. The most
frequent (34.3%) stone localization was lower pole. Overall blood transfusion rate was 15.1%. Significantly
increased in mean number of accesses, surgery time, fluoroscopy time, nephrostomy removal time and
hospitalization documented in cases with complex stones (p-values = 0.000, 0.000, 0.009, 0.000 and 0.000,
respectively). Overall complication rate was 9.7% (n=76) and the most frequent complication (4.4%) was
severe hemorrhage. Overall stone-free rates (SFR) are 74.6% (n=583). Furthermore, complication rate (14.4%
vs. 7.4%) was statistically higher and SFR (57.6% vs. 82.9%) was lower in cases with complex stones than
simple stones (p-values = 0.002 and 0.000, respectively).
Conclusions: Our findings clearly demonstrated that PNL achieved higher success rate and lower
complication risk in patients with simple stones than complex stones. PNL is significantly associated with
shorter operation duration and hospitalization in simple stones group. Furthermore, PNL provided relatively
higher overall SFR and lower complication rates in our large sample group compared to the published data.

Objective: This study was designed to observe how the depressive state due to human papilloma virus
infection affects sexual functions in sexually active men.
Material and Methods: Between 2020-2022, 77 primary male patients who applied to the XXX Hospital
and diagnosed with genital warts (GW) by physical examination were included in the study. The patients
were divided into two groups according to the number and the size of the warts (small size vs. larger size).
The patients were asked to fill out the Hospital Anxiety Depression (HAD) scale and International Index of
Erectile Function (IIEF-5) forms. The data of the two groups were compared and analyzed.
Results: The mean age was 39.7±10.3, BMI kg/m2 27.0±7.2. Patients divided into 2 groups in terms of wart
sizes showed normal distribution. The HAD scale part was found to be abnormal in 13% of patients in small
wart size group and 52.5% of 21 patients in larger wart size group (p<0.0001). According to the evaluation
of the IIEF-5 scale, it was observed that 13.5% of 5 patients in small size group and 47.5% of 19 patients in
larger size group had severe sexual functions (p<0.0001). No significant difference was observed between
the 2 groups with chronic diseases (p=0.263).
Conclusion: Anxiety and depression appear and become evident in patients diagnosed with GWs from
the moment of diagnosis. It may be necessary to examine this issue carefully and to involve psychiatry
consultations in the management when necessary.

Published: September 2023

This article aims to explore the methods for conducting a thorough assessment using a scientific philosophical approach. Given that inconsistencies in educational assessment practices can yield suboptimal outcomes upon examination, it becomes imperative to employ appropriate techniques for a comprehensive review. The author has crafted this article using a research approach, gathering source materials from various repositories including library books, research reports, newspapers, books, theses, dissertations, and both printed and digital scientific journals. In the context of Islamic education, the objective of evaluation is to nurture al-Insan al-Kamil, or a well-rounded human being. Similarly, the primary goal of education is to instill faith, foster piety, cultivate a religious mindset, impart knowledge, and encourage the application of acquired knowledge in adapting to broader community life. Evaluation also serves as a means to furnish students with feedback regarding their accomplishments, as well as the depth of their perspectives and knowledge acquired throughout the learning journey. Furthermore, philosophy plays a pivotal role in educating individuals to think critically, gain insights, and reason comprehensively, enabling them to approach events or problems from multiple angles and ultimately arrive at correct solutions.

Authors: Clarke Isobel , Philpott Lauren , Buttery Andy
Published: September 2023

Research shows inequity of access and provision of Simulation-Based Education (SBE) globally, perhaps especially for Simulation for Mental Health (S4MH). Integrated approaches to education improve outcomes, despite this, there is a lack of multi-agency education and service user/carer involvement. This innovative work involves service users and carers in the design, delivery and evaluation of an experiential, mental health, SBE programme for health and social care professionals, and multi-agencies. Highlighting important areas of inclusivity, equality and diversity provides valuable insight into the unique patient perspective and experience of their interactions with services and professionals, and knowledge, perspective, and role of the practitioner, considering the transition of the service user between services.

In a mixed approach, data was collected between November 2021 and March 2022 by pre- and post-participation survey of participants’ thoughts, beliefs, attitudes, behaviours and experiences of the programme. A thematic method was used for qualitative data analysis.

Completed survey response rate = 64%. Analyses constructed themes around safety, responsiveness, empathy, stigma and experience. Findings show increased confidence and understanding of roles following participation in the programme. Positive changes in empathy and respondents’ perspectives and behaviours were also reported.

Findings inform better integrated, co-ordinated systems and practices, demonstrating mutual benefits of service user and carer involvement, and value of multi-agency learning; increased knowledge, safety, empathy, mutual appreciation of roles and recognition in the value of lived experience integrated into learning. Implications for practice and mental health care are relevant to multi-agency professionals, service providers, service users, carers and families.

Performance Evaluation of Engine-Operated Weeding Machine
Authors: Woyessa Degefa
Published: September 2023

Weeds constitute a serious problem to wheat crops and cause a great loss to the yield. Manual weeding is labor-intensive and time-consuming. Chemical weed control has a negative impact on both the environment and humans. Today the agricultural sector requires non-chemical weed control that safeguards consumers demand for high quality food products and pay special attention to food safety. The objectives of the study was to evaluate the performance of an-engine operated weeder by evaluating the weeding efficiency, plant damage, effective field capacity, field efficiency, fuel consumption, performance index, energy consumption, and cost economics of engine operated weeder in wheat crop. The experimental design was a randomized complete block design and evaluation was conducted at three weeder forward speeds (1.5, 2, and 2.5 km/hr), two depths of operation (from 0 to 20 and from 0 to 40 mm), and three levels of soil moisture content (9.4, 12.34 and 15.25%). The performance of the weeder was found to be optimum at 15.25 percent soil moisture content with 0 to 40 mm depth of operation at a forward speed of 1.5 km/hr. The results revealed that maximum weeding efficiency of 90.1 percent was obtained with lower plant damage of 3.31 percent whereas the effective field capacity, field efficiency, fuel consumption, performance index, and energy consumption were found to be 0.052 ha/hr, 85.99%, 0.41 l/hr, 276.78 ha/hp, and 481.71 MJ/ha, respectively. The analysis revealed that forward speed, depth of operation, and soil moisture had significant effects on weeding efficiency, plant damage, effective field capacity, and fuel consumption at P<0.05 level of significance. The cost of weeding per hectare were 758 and 1920 ETB/ha for engine-operated weeders and traditional weeding methods, respectively. Based on the performance results, it can be concluded that the weeding machine is efficient, effective, and economically viable option with high scope for acceptability among small and medium scale farmers.
Does Economic Growth Have a Nonlinear Relationship with Unemployment in Türkiye? Evidence From Self-Exciting Threshold Autoregressive Model
Authors: m Yusuf , l Erhan
Published: September 2023

Economic growth and employment have long been a source of concern for economists and policymakers. Okun, an American economist, was the first to examine the relationship between economic growth and unemployment. Okun’s law states that a 3% increase in output results in a 1% drop in unemployment. The main objective of this paper is to examine this hypothesis for Turkish economy by using quarterly data from 2001 to 2023. The relationship between the unemployment and economic growth has been analyzed by employing Granger causality test and self-exciting threshold autoregressive (SETAR) model. According to SETAR findings, there exists a threshold value binding in describing the relationship between unemployment and economic growth. As a result, Okun's Law is applicable to Türkiye.

Drones have gained popularity in numerous fields, including education, where they are employed as valuable tools for enhancing students' knowledge. In particular, the use of drones in land surveying and mapping has revolutionized the industry, replacing manual and time-consuming methods from the 19th century. Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) enable surveyors to cover vast areas easily, even in challenging terrains, while producing high-resolution maps and collecting extensive data efficiently. With the aid of automated software, quality control can be achieved with minimal training. The benefits of drone surveying encompass terrain modeling, surveying, and 3D mapping for GIS purposes, such as topography and volume measurements. The return on investment (ROI) from utilizing drones in mapping and surveying is substantial. Furthermore, UAVs find practical application in close-range mapping, particularly in engineering survey works that traditionally incur significant costs, labor, and time. Low-cost UAVs offer reliable information for various applications, including road design, bridges, and land surveys, matching the accuracy of conventional engineering surveys and policies, particularly for small-scale mapping. UAVs present a stable and rapidly advancing technology, positioning them as competitive alternatives to other surveying methods. This study consists of five phases: preliminary study, data collection, data processing, post-processing, and analysis, with a focus on UAVs as a data processing tool. The project demonstrates the utilization of UAV images and photogrammetry software, which involve capturing overlapping images of the Earth's surface using cameras mounted on drones or airplanes. These images are then processed with photogrammetry software to generate geo-referenced maps, ortho mosaic images, and other valuable outputs. The software is capable of processing both images and lidar points, offering versatility in its applications, including artistic modeling and surveying. The increasing popularity of UAV images and photogrammetry software extends to various fields, such as agriculture, military operations, disaster management, and artistic modeling. As UAVs become more affordable, their accessibility expands to a broader range of users. Aerial mapping with UAVs necessitates mission planning and ground control points, making drones valuable in mapping, search and rescue missions, transportation, and other disaster management applications. Multiple photogrammetry software options are available, each with distinct features and advantages. By leveraging UAV images and photogrammetry software, previously challenging images can be acquired, opening new possibilities for diverse applications.

Predicting heart attack possibility is a crucial step in saving human life because it is one of the leading causes of death. How improve and/or achieve as accurate as possible prediction value is a challenging task. Though Deep Learning networks, such as Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) and Long Short-Term Memory networks (LSTMs), have been widely used to predict medical events, the issue of providing perfect prediction outcomes is still progressing. The training data insufficiency is a major hindrance to these network's performance. Accordingly, to overcome that issue, this research develops a method for heart attack prediction by using the Conditional Tabular Generative Adversarial Network (CTGAN) model. By anticipating and warning the patient that he may be having a heart attack, he to take the appropriate preventative steps, the proposed method in this research can help to reduce deaths from heart attacks and preserve patients' lives. The suggested method uses the CTGAN model to expand the patient's laboratory test results to build a synthetic trained database. Then, the RNN and LSTM are trained on the generated dataset to enhance the prediction accuracy, and both RNN and LSTM are evaluated before and after the database expansion. The experimental results show that the accuracy of RNN and LSTM is increased to 100% and 99% from 80% and 65%, respectively and the precision of RNN and LSTM is increased to 100% for each of them from 68% and 0, respectively. Finally, sensitivity(recall) increased for RNN and LSTM from 77% and 0 to 100% and 98%, respectively.
