ФОРМУЛА-ТРІЙЦЯ ЯК РЕЗУЛЬТАТ ЕМОЦІЙНОГО ПОШУКУ НОВИХ ФОРМУЛ ГЕОМЕТРІЇ
Authors: Гетманенко Людмила
Published: September 2023

У статті автор розглядає важливість вивчення елементів формульної геометрії в процесі математичної освіти та пропонує оригінальні методи розв’язування класичних та авторських задач, що побудовані на нових, не відомих до цього часу залежностях; знайомить з авторською формулою-трійцею.
Формулювання проблеми. У сучасному шкільному курсі геометрії для середньої та старшої школи фактично відсутні відомості про елементи формульної геометрії. Хибним уявленням деяких математиків, які не мали досвіду викладання, була теза, що в класичній геометрії кількість формул має бути мінімальною, а елементарні тригонометричні функції повністю відкидалися. Аналіз сучасних досліджень та особистий досвід роботи переконливо доводять недостовірність такої позиції.
Матеріали і методи. Проведено системний аналіз наукових джерел щодо наявної інформації стосовно теоретичних понять та практичних можливостей застосування формульної геометрії. У ході підготовки статті були використані такі методи та засоби дослідження: порівняльний аналіз теоретичних положень, розкритих у науковій та навчально-методичній літературі; математичний аналіз та математична логіка; спостереження за навчально-виховним процесом учнів закладів  загальної середньої освіти.
Результати. У результаті дослідження було систематизовано підхід до способів  розв’язування геометричних задач за допомогою формул. Розкрито особливості застування формульного методу до розв’язування великої кількості класичних та авторських  геометричних задач різного ступеню складності. Основні результати дослідження отримані з використанням методів формульної геометрії. Результати роботи були апробовані у Науковій школі Кушніра І.А. «Краща авторська задача з геометрії», у Київському університеті імені Бориса Грінченка, а також пропонуються учням при підготовці до олімпіад з математики.
Висновки. Розв'язування геометричних задач формульним способом суттєво зменшує розмір доведення. Використання формул, властивостей геометричних фігур та алгоритмів допомагає сконцентруватись на основних ідеях задачі та виконати розрахунки швидше та ефективніше. Розв'язування геометричних задач формульним способом має також важливу емоційну складову для школярів, що вивчають математику. Цей підхід сприяє створенню почуття впевненості у власних знаннях. Раціональне використання формул та алгоритмів у розв'язанні геометричних задач спонукає учнів до логічного мислення та розуміння зв'язків між різними геометричними об'єктами. Крім того, успішне розв'язування задач стимулює позитивні емоції, такі як радість від досягнення результату і задоволення від власної компетентності.

Introduction. Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is an established treatment for severe hip osteoarthritis (OA ). Traditionally, surgical approaches involved extensive soft tissue damage. New, less invasive approaches were introduced, facilitating fast recovery, reducing postoperative pain and incision length. Aim. Comparative analysis of postoperative pain and long-term results in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA) utilizing direct superior approach (DSA) and direct lateral approach (DLA). Materials and methods. Sixty-one patients scheduled for primary THA were included in the study. THA was performed utilizing the approach chosen by experienced orthopedic surgeons. After the procedure, pain intensity and use of analgesics were recorded daily. Patients were contacted 18 months following surgery to collect data on SF-36 score, pain intensity and complications (dislocations, infections, periprosthetic fractures, and revision surgeries). Fifty-two patients were included in the final analysis. Group A (DSA) consisted of 27 patients, whereas group B (DLA) consisted of 25 patients. Results. There were no significant differences between groups in terms of demographic parameters, preoperative pain intensity, Harris Hip Score, and SF-36 score. Significant differences were observed in pain intensity during the first three days post-operation. The use of non-opioid analgesics did not differ; however, the use of tramadol was lower in group A on the 1st and 2nd day post-operation. No significant differences were found in SF-36 score and pain intensity after 18 months post-surgery. Conclusions. DSA approach in THA is superior in comparison with the direct lateral approach in terms of early postoperative pain intensity and use of analgesic drugs. Late results of both approaches are comparable.

SERHL is differentially expressed in central nervous system metastasis in human breast cancer.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: September 2023

Metastasis to the brain occurs in a significant fraction of patients with breast cancer (1-3). We mined published RNA-sequencing and microarray data (4, 5) to compare primary and metastatic tumor transcriptomes for the discovery of genes associated with brain metastasis in humans with metastatic breast cancer. We found that serine hydrolase-like (pseudogene), encoded by SERHL, was among the genes whose expression was most different in the brain metastases of patients with metastatic breast cancer as compared to primary tumors of the breast. SERHL mRNA was present at increased quantities in brain metastatic tissues as compared to primary tumors of the breast. Expression of SERHL in primary tumors was correlated with patient distant metastasis-free and recurrence-free survival. Modulation of SERHL expression may be relevant to the biology by which tumor cells metastasize from the breast to the brain in humans with metastatic breast cancer.

Published: September 2023

Women are significantly more likely to develop Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias (ADRD) than men. Suggestions to explain the sex differences in dementia incidence have included the influence of sex hormones with little attention paid to date as to the effect of hormonal contraception on brain health. The aim of this scoping review is to evaluate the current evidence base for associations between hormonal contraceptive use by women and non-binary people in early adulthood and brain health outcomes. A literature search was conducted using EMBASE, Medline and Google Scholar, using the keywords “hormonal contraception” OR “contraception” OR “contraceptive” AND “Alzheimer*” OR “Brain Health” OR “Dementia”. Eleven papers were identified for inclusion in the narrative synthesis. Studies recruited participants from the UK, USA, China, South Korea and Indonesia. Studies included data from women who were post-menopausal with retrospective data collection, with only one study contemporaneously collecting data from participants during the period of hormonal contraceptive use. Studies reported associations between hormonal contraceptive use and a lower risk of ADRD, particularly Alzheimer’s disease (AD), better cognition and larger grey matter volume. Some studies reported stronger associations with longer duration of hormonal contraceptive use, however, results were inconsistent. Four studies reported no significant associations between hormonal contraceptive use and measures of brain health, including brain age on MRI scans and risk of AD diagnosis. Further research is needed on young adults taking hormonal contraceptives, on different types of hormonal contraceptives (other than oral) and to explore intersections between sex, gender, race and ethnicity.

Diffusion MRI of the hippocampus
Authors: Karat Bradley , Kohler Stefan , Khan Ali
Published: September 2023

The hippocampus is a brain structure which plays key roles in a variety of cognitive processes. Critically, a wide range of neurological disorders are associated with degeneration of the hippocampal microstructure, defined as neurons, dendrites, glial cells, and more. Thus, the hippocampus is a key target for methods which are sensitive to these micro-scale properties. Diffusion MRI is one such method, which can non-invasively probe neural architecture. Here we review the extensive use of diffusion MRI to capture hippocampal microstructure. The results of these studies indicate that commonly used methods are sensitive but not specific to the hippocampal microstructure. However, recent advancements in diffusion MRI have greatly improved the characterization of hippocampal microstructure, with the potential to provide distinct measures which can be used to better understand human cognition and disease.

Published: September 2023

Background: Missouri’s Overdose Field Report (ODFR) is a community-based reporting system which intends to capture overdoses which may not be otherwise recorded. Objectives: Describe the factors related to non-fatal overdoses reported to Missouri’s ODFR. Methods: This study used a descriptive epidemiological approach to examine the demographics and circumstances of overdoses reported to the ODFR. We used binary logistic regression to evaluate factors associated with survival and ordinal logistic regression to evaluate factors associated with number of doses used. Factors were chosen based on their relevance to overdose education and survival, and naloxone distribution.Results: Between 2018 and 2022, 12,225 overdoses (67% male; 78% White) were reported through the ODFR, with a 96% (n = 11,225) survival rate. Overdose survival (ps < .02) was associated with younger age (OR = .58), no opioid and stimulant co-involvement (OR = .61), and private location (OR = .48). Intramuscular naloxone in particular was associated with a significantly higher odds of survival compared to nasal naloxone (OR = 2.11). An average of 1.6 doses of naloxone per incident were administered. Additional doses were associated (ps < .02) with being older (OR = .45), female (OR = .90), nasal naloxone (versus intravenous) (OR = .65), and the belief fentanyl was present (OR = 1.49).Conclusion: Our reporting form provides a comprehensive picture of the events surrounding reported overdoses, including factors associated with survival, how much naloxone was used, and the effects of respondents believing fentanyl was involved. Missouri’s report can provide support for current naloxone dosing, contextualize refusing post-overdose transport, and can be used to improve overdose response by community and first responders.

The Influence of Similarity on Automatic Imitation in School-Aged Children
Authors: Wermelinger Stephanie , Mörsdorf Lea , Daum Moritz M.
Published: September 2023

Factors such as a person’s liking of the model or perceived similarity can influence imitation. However, to date, it is unclear whether perceived similarity influences one specific type of imitation, automatic imitation, in children. This study investigated whether school-aged children (N = 101, Mage = 92.57, SDage = 3.28 months) differ in their automatic imitation depending on whether they perceived the model as similar or dissimilar to themselves. Although the similarity manipulation seemed to work, we did not find support for an effect on children’s automatic imitation. We discuss our findings in light of previous research in this area and critically reflect upon the methodological challenges of this study.
Are Central Eating Disorder Network Symptoms Sensitive to Item Selection and Sample? Implications for Conceptualization of Eating Disorder Psychopathology from a Network Perspective

Published: September 2023

Item selection is a critical decision in modeling psychological networks. The current pre-registered two-study research used random selections of 1,000 symptom networks to examine which eating disorder (ED) and co-occurring symptoms are most central in longitudinal networks among individuals with EDs (N = 71, total observations = 6,060) and tested whether centrality changed based on which items were included in the network. Participants completed two weeks of ecological momentary assessment (EMA; 5 surveys/day). In Study 1, we obtained initial strength centrality values by estimating an a-priori network using eight items with the highest means. We then estimated 1,000 networks and their centrality from a random selection of unique 8-item symptom combinations. We compared the strength centrality from the a-priori network to the distribution of strength centrality estimates from the random-item networks. In Study 2, we repeated this procedure in an independent longitudinal dataset (N=41, total observations=4,575) to determine if our results generalized across samples. Shame, guilt, worry, and fear of losing control were consistently central across networks, regardless of items included in the network or sample. Results suggest that these symptoms may be important to the structure of ED psychopathology and have implications for how we understand the structure of ED psychopathology. Existing methods for item inclusion in psychological networks may distort the structure of ED symptom networks by either under- or overestimating strength centrality, or by omitting consistently central symptoms that are non-traditional ED symptoms. Future research should consider including these symptoms in models of ED psychopathology.
Algorithmic Uncertainties in Geolocating Social Media Data for Disaster Management

Published: September 2023

The emergence and rapid development of information and communications technology (ICT) have turned individuals into sensors, fostering the growth of human-generated geospatial big data. These geospatial big data, sometimes referred to as social sensing data, have been coupled with traditional spatial data and applied in various domains to understand society and the environment at multiple spatial and temporal scales. In disaster management, social sensing data, mainly social media data, have opened new avenues for observing human responses and behaviors under disasters in near real-time. Previous research relies on geographical information in geotags, content, and user profiles to locate social media messages. However, less than 1% of users share their locations through geotagging, leaving geolocating users through addresses in user profiles or the message content increasingly crucial in future location-based social media analysis and applications. This paper attempts to evaluate and visualize the margin of error incurred when using user profile locations or message-mentioned addresses to geolocate social media data for disaster research. Using Twitter data during the 2017 Hurricane Harvey as a case study, this research assessed the inconsistencies in predicting users’ locations in various administrative units during each disaster phase using three geolocating strategies. The study provides insights into the relationship of spatial scales and conflated geolocating strategies, with the 'user from' method achieving the highest agreement at the country level (94.07%) compared to the 'tweet about' method. Interestingly, the findings indicate that geolocation accuracy remains relatively stable across the three disaster recovery phases. Moreover, during the preparedness phase, the agreement percentages between the 'tweet from' and 'user from' locations reach their peak, ranging from 95.1% at the country level to 40.3% at the county level. The paper rigorously quantifies the uncertainties associated with conflating geolocating methods for Twitter data for disaster management applications, underscoring the importance of accepting an appropriate level of uncertainty or using the three geolocating methods separately in future social media-based investigations. Furthermore, the study quantifies the trade-off between spatial scale and geolocation accuracy, revealing a decline in agreement between two geolocating methods as the geographical scale transitions from state to county, block group, 1-kilometer, and 30-meter levels. The potential impacts of uncertainties in geolocating Twitter data for disaster management applications were further unraveled. The findings offer valuable insights into selecting appropriate scales when applying different geolocating strategies in future social media-based investigations.
Eight Moments in the History of Qualitative Research
Authors: Pant Khem Raj
Published: September 2023

This article provides an overview of the history of qualitative research, from its origins in colonial ethnographies to the development of formalized methods, and the pluralism and interpretive approaches of the blurred genres period. The article also discusses the challenges and controversies faced by qualitative research in the present and future, leading to the rise of new approaches such as mixed-method research and critical conversations about diversity, moral discourse, and global society. The article also describes the three perspectives used to classify research: application, objective, and mode of inquiry. Qualitative research is a method of scientific inquiry that uses data collection and analysis, primarily focused on understanding an issue or solving a problem. The article explores the eight moments of qualitative research development as identified in 'The Sage Handbook of Qualitative Research', from the traditional phase to the fractured future. Each moment is characterized by a different paradigm, ontology, and methodology, and has been influenced by key contributors such as Bronislaw Malinowski and Margaret Mead.

Finally, the article highlights the growing importance of qualitative research in the field of social science research, which is now considered equal to quantitative research. The mixed method approach, which links both quantitative and qualitative research, has also gained popularity. The article concludes by emphasizing the value of scientific inquiry and the importance of understanding the world around us in all its complexity and diversity.

Published: September 2023

This article deals with the analysis of role of remittance in gross domestic production (GDP) growth of Nepal where compression is made with import and export as well. Considering the GDP as dependent variable and the remittance, import and export as the independent variables, the analysis is performed based on the secondary sources of data published by Nepal Rastra Bank (NRB) in last 10 years (2012-2022) and other data available in literatures using the linear models under multiple regressions. The role of remittance has been seen significant effect on the GDP. For the mentioned study period, average GDP growth is 4.49% however it was in decreased by 2.36% in the 2019/20. The possible reason of the decrease will be due to the outburst of COVID- 19 pandemic worldwide. At the same time, average remittance inflow was 11.09% where it was negative 0.48% in 2020/21. In addition, the flow of remittance is rising, which boosts economic expansion and import volume. Imports make up two thirds of all trade, with exports accounting for the remaining below one third. Economic growth is positively impacted by both imports and exports. When the effects of exports and imports are combined, exports have a negative impact on Nepal's economic growth. Exports have no beneficial effect on economic growth, despite favorable effects from imports.

Published: September 2023

This study aims to evaluate the relationship between the satisfaction of customers in terms of after-sales services in the automobile industry in Kathmandu. This study applied a descriptive research design. This study type was quantitative. Since the population is unknown in this study 384 questionnaires were collected from respondents of this research work applying a purposive sampling technique. The population of the study was both two-wheelers and four-wheeler vehicle users from many places in Kathmandu and various backgrounds. Purposive sampling techniques were used in this study. This study applied the self-administered close-ended survey questionnaire. Multiple choice questions based on the Five-Point Likert Scale developed by Rensis Likert were used to mention a level of a statement of disagreement to an agreement where 1 indicates strongly disagree and 5 indicates strongly agree. Data were analyzed based on the majority of respondents/ responses collected out of the total sample size (384) entered in the table of the Five-Point Likert Scale. Respondents who are in favor of an agreement with all of the tables and statements are more than those of disagree. Therefore, it can be concluded that there is a high association between the satisfaction of customers with components of after-sales service i.e., the cost of service, service quality, responsiveness, and speed of service of automobiles in various places in Kathmandu. It can be concluded that these components are associated with customer satisfaction. The automobile industry should be guided by the Kano model to meet the requirements of consumers in terms of products and services.

Published: September 2023

The Mongolian oak Quercus mongolica Fisch. ex Ledeb. along with the Korean pine, Pinus koraiensis Siebold et Zuss form the ecosystem integrity basis at the Bastak Reserve. The study of these species productivity is important and relevant. Currently, a number of articles have been published on the Korean pine nut productivity in the protected area. However, the information concerning the Mongolian oak yield is available only in the Annals of Nature. This paper presents the assessment data on the Mongolian oak acorns yield as a fodder base for a number of wild animals being the nutrition for the Amur tiger. This species productivity monitoring has been carried out at Bastak Nature Reserve since 2015. However, the first acorn harvest was obtained only in 2017. The assessment is made on permanent transects in different areas of the reserve. The research shows that monitoring of the Mongolian oak harvest in the Bastak reserve is carried out irregularly. The productive and lean years alternation trend has not been determined yet, unlike in the Lazovsky Reserve. Perhaps, because of a short monitoring period. The Mongolian oak acorns yield is significantly influenced by the weather conditions, primarily, the absence of rainy days during the flowering period. It is noted that in the absence of Mongolian oak acorns yield there is a good harvest of pine nuts partially compensating the absence of acorns as a nutrition for ungulates. However, maintaining a stable density of ungulates needs certain bio-technical measures, such as feeding grounds.

In the tectonic structure of the Earth, formed by rotational processes, a stable regmatic network (tectonic framework) and structures of the central type (ring, vortex, etc.) are of the main importance. Lithosphere plates are global vortex systems arisen as a result of the tectonic flow of masses in the state of a viscous fluid. Eddy structures are tectonic complexes in which the results of vertical and horizontal tectonic movements combination are captured and can be recorded by direct geological observations. In the Western Pacific Ocean, it is noteworthy a series of structures in the form of a system of marginal seas representing the Western Pacific continent-ocean transition zone. The tectonic evolution of the West Pacific region is the formation of lithosphere eddies series in the continent-ocean junction zone. It is associated with the Earth mantle and upper shells (tectonospheres) energy interaction, due to the unstable regime of the planet’s rotational dynamics. Of particular interest are the global shear zones and eddies of the lithosphere formed as a result of horizontal and vertical tectonic movements combination. It is shown that: 1) all tectonic dislocations contain both horizontal and vertical components of the movement velocity, the former dominating in the structure formation of the region; 2) their interaction outcome is vortex and other nonlinear deformations of the lithosphere, which constitute the main type of structural elements of the region; 3) they are often accompanied by the tectonosphere magmatic activation in the form of convective movements and / or plumes “floating”; 4) the Western Pacific marginal-sea depressions are the funnels of convective cells, which formed lithosphere eddies under the conditions of a shift in the interacting lithosphere plates velocities.
AIGUN TREATY AS A MEMORABLE DATE FOR THE JEWISH AUTONOMOUS REGION
Authors: Gurevich V.S.
Published: September 2023

By the law of the Jewish Autonomous region, May 28 is recognized as one of the official memorable dates in the history of the region. It was on this day in 1858 in the Chinese city of Aigun that the Aigun Treaty, a historical document on the delimitation of Russia and China possessions, was signed. The agreement is a legal justification for the annexation of the lands lying on the left bank of the Amur to the Russian Empire, as well as Primorye. The history of the Jewish Autonomous region is an integral part of the Russian state general history concerning the development of Siberia and the Far East lands by Russians. Its initial stage should be considered 1581, when the pioneer squad headed Ermak Timofeevich marched from the banks of the Kama River to the east, which contributed to the discovery and annexation of new rich lands located beyond the mountains of the Urals to the Russian state. The subsequent advance of Russian explorers from the Ob to the Yenisei, from the Yenisei to the Lena and further to the Pacific Ocean, later resulted in the domination of Russia on the Amur and in the Amur lands annexation. The movement to Siberia and the Far East served as a source of the state treasury deficit replenishment, provided trade ties with the peoples living on these lands, as well as the opportunity to break through the isolation and blockade in the Russian state in the west and southwest. However, the Russian stay on the Amur was short-lived and was interrupted in the middle of the XVII century by military actions by well-armed troops of the Qing Empire. Unable to transfer large military forces to the Amur region, in 1689 Russia was forced to sign the Treaty of Nerchinsk, according to which the Russians left the left-bank Amur region for more than a century and a half. But the efforts and sacrifices of the XVII century pioneers in the Amur region were not in vain. They became a prologue for the subsequent restoration and consolidation by the Russian state of its territorial and political positions.

Objective: This study aimed to assess the respiratory muscle strength in stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients, via measuring maximal respiratory mouth pressures [maximal inspiratory pressure (PImax) and maximal expiratory pressure (PEmax)] to determine its association with disease severity and quality of life.Material and Methods: The study was a cross-sectional comparative study. A hundred and forty subjects (70 COPD patients and 70 controls) were recruited. Measurements of PImax, PEmax and spirometry were then performed. The health-related quality of life, severity of obstruction and dyspnea in the COPD patients were assessed using the COPD Assessment Test (CAT), post-bronchodilator Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV 1) and the modified Medical Research Council (mMRC) dyspnea scale, respectively. Data was analyzed using Statistical Package for the Social Science (SPSS) version 25.0 (SPSS IL USA.).Results: The mean (±S.D.) PImax and PEmax of the COPD patients (31.78±14.40 cmH2O and 54.80±18.89 cmH2O, respectively) were significantly lower (p<0.001) than the controls (80.40±7.50 cmH2O and 95.44±12.52 cmH2O, respectively). Both the PImax and PEmax correlated positively with the FEV1 of the COPD patients (r=0.658 and 0.534, respectively, p<0.001). The PImax and PEmax decreased as the mMRC dyspnea grade worsened (p<0.001). There was a negative correlation between PImax; PEmax and the CAT score of the COPD patients (r=-0.704 and–0.583, respectively, p<0.001).Conclusion: There was significant respiratory muscle weakness in the COPD patients compared with the controls. The respiratory muscle weakness worsened as the airflow obstruction and dyspnea worsened. Respiratory muscle weakness may also add to the negative impact COPD has on the health status of COPD patients.

HISTORICAL MEMORIAL POLITICS OF THE LIBERAL SEGMENT OF THE INDONESIAN UMMAH
Authors:   Voronezh State University, Voronezh, Russia, KYRCHANOFF Maksym W.
Published: September 2023

В статье анализируются особенности развития и основные векторы трансформации исторической индонезийской памяти в рамках либерального сегмента мусульманской уммы. Показано, что мусульманские интеллектуалы либеральной ориентации активны в формировании собственных версий коллективной исторической памяти, что ведет к формированию мемориальной культуры уммы, которая развивается одновременно и параллельно, но разнонаправленно с исторической памятью светского гражданского индонезийского национализма. Автор анализирует восприятие умеренными либеральными мусульманскими интеллектуалами коллективной памяти уммы. Предполагается, что мемориальные активности развиваются в двух направлениях. С одной стороны, формируется большой нарратив, используемый при написании истории ислама в Индонезии в целом. С другой, культура памяти уммы актуализирует политические и идеологические противоречия национальной современной истории, что содействует актуализации коллективных исторических травм в рамках мемориальных пространств. Особое внимание уделяется актуальным идеологическим противоречиям, которые формируют различные и параллельно развивающиеся модусы исторической памяти уммы в современной Индонезии. Показано, что модель коллективной памяти уммы стимулирует развитие политики памяти в религиозно центричной системе координат умеренного ислама. В статье показано, как и почему формируются и развиваются разграничительные линии коллективной памяти Индонезии, подверженной фрагментации, что стимулирует развитие параллельных мемориальных культур светских националистов, умеренных либеральных мусульман и сторонников радикального политического ислама.
