Authors: Radulović Azra Huršidić , Žaja Roko , Milošević Milan , Radulović Bojana , Luketić Ivica , Božić Tajana
Published: September 2021

One of the side-effects of the COVID-19 pandemic is a global change in work ergonomic patterns as millions of people replaced their usual work environment with home to limit the spread of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-COV-2) infection. The aim of our cross-sectional pilot study was to identify musculoskeletal pain that may have resulted from this change and included 232 telecommunications company workers of both genders [121 (52.2 %) men aged 23–62 (median 41; interquartile range 33–46 yrs.) and 111 (47.8 %) women aged 23–53 (median 40; interquartile range 33–44)] who had been working from home for eight months (from 16 March to 4 December 2020) before they joined the study. The participants were asked to fill in our web-based questionnaire by self-assessing their experience of hand, lower back, and upper back/neck pain while working at home and by describing their work setting and physical activity. Compared to previous work at the office, 90 (39.1 %) participants reported stronger pain in the lower back, 105 (45.7 %) in the upper back/neck, and 63 (27.2 %) in their hands. Only one third did not report any musculoskeletal problems related to work from home. Significantly fewer men than women reported hand, lower back, and upper back/ neck pain (p=0.033, p=0.001 and p=0.013, respectively). Sixty-nine workers (29.9 %) reported to work in a separate room, 75 (32.4 %) worked in a separate section of a room with other household members, whereas 87 (37.7 %) had no separate work space, 30 of whom most often worked in the dining room. Ninety-five participants (40.9 %) had no office desk to work at, and only 75 (32.3 %) used an ergonomic chair. Of those who shared their household with others (N=164), 116 (70.7 %) complained about constant or occasional disturbances. Over a half of all participants (52 %) said that they worked longer hours from home than at work, predominantly women (p=0.05). Only 69 participants (29.9 %) were taking frequent breaks, predominantly older ones (p=0.006). Our findings clearly point to a need to inform home workers how to make more ergonomic use of non-ergonomic equipment, use breaks, and exercise and to inform employers how to better organise working hours to meet the needs of work from home.
Constrains of the Multi-Sectoral Partnerships in Romania - Are Local Action Groups Sustainable?
Authors: Olar Alexandru , Jitea Mugurel-Ionel
Published: September 2021

Local Action Groups (LAGs) are responsible for promoting social and economic development in their territories, by creating local development strategies (LDSs) funded through LEADER Programme. They are area-based multisectoral partnerships, formed from public, private and social stakeholders. The aim of this paper is to study the governance and sustainability of Romanian LAGs, using evidence from the Nord-West Development Region from Romania. Structured interviews with LAGs managers were used as a primary method for collecting data. The results show that LAGs are struggling to remain active during the transition periods between two editions of the program, questioning their capacity to function without LEADER funding. However, they report fewer major changes compared to the last transition, mostly focusing on partnership and territorial structure.

Published: September 2021

From July to November 2019, a study has been carried out in the locality of Ngaoundéré in order to contribute to a better knowledge of exotic hens. For this purpose, 190 improved strain chicks of one day-old with an average weight of 35.49±3.78g were distributed according to the type of feather. They were fed an iso-energetic and iso-proteic feed. Data on phenotype characteristics, growth performance, biometric data and carcass were determined. The main results show that three types of feathering were recorded with 16.4% of hens with bare necks and with feathered pits, 78.1% of hens with feathered pits and 5.5% of hens with normal feathers. The majority of hens were recorded with a single comb (75.3%), round mumps (71.2%), white pits (76.4%), black beaks (47.9%) and brown eyes (75.3%). In terms of zootechnical performance, the highest live weight (1758.00±322.20g) was recorded with naked-necked hens and feathered pits. The highest weekly average weight gain was recorded with yellow eyed hens (111.77±16.63g) followed by bare-necked and feathered pits (107.83±20.06g). Hens expressing the Na and Pti genes showed the best growth performance although carcass yield was not significantly affected by feather type. It was concluded that there is a very high phenotypic diversity in the so-called improved hens. However, despite their great potential, responsible management of this genetic resource should be encouraged in order to avoid genetic erosion of local poultry resources.

Science of many names: Onomastic terms in the opinion journalism of the Czech National Corpus
Authors: David Jaroslav , Klemensová Tereza , Místecký Michal
Published: September 2021

The contribution focuses on the use and collocation analysis of basic notions linked to the field of onomastics, including those that are specialized (e.g., “proprium”, “anthroponym”, “toponym”, “chrematonym”, etc.) and the ones that are commonly used (e.g., “proper name/naming”). In the latter case, attention will be paid to whether these terms are connected to onomastic contexts. In general, the research analyses sources where the lemmata are used, including their typical surroundings. The goal of the paper is to show how the public perceives onomastics, whether it is familiar with its key terms. The analysis is based on the data of the Czech National Corpus, version 8, opinion-journalism texts.
Anthroponyms from the pragmatic and communication perspective
Authors: Sokolová Jana
Published: September 2021

The aim of this paper is to extend the model theory and the modeling of onymic signs by V. Blanár by a new pragmatic-communicative dimension. The central motive of the paper is the possibilities and limits of use of personal names in dialogic communication from the perspective of the speaker, and taking into account the addressee who, being a semantic-pragmatic and communication partner/interlocutor of the speaker, receives the locutionary and illocutionary components of discourse, addresses the meaning the speaker attributed to the generated oral discourse, and analyzes the pragmatically charged knowledge that has been transmitted/received during the interaction processes. The author will focus on the functional availability of anthroponyms in the locutionary and non-locutionary intersubjectivity. Both happen on the speaker – addressee axis, with the anthroponyms (i) identifying the speaker and/or (ii) identifying or contacting the addressee in the locutionary intersubjectivity, and indicating another bearer in the non-locutionary intersubjectivity. The identity of the bearer is either confirmed or contradicted by the speaker. Through the using of his/her proper name, the speaker also signals whether or not the bearer of the name belongs to his/her personal sphere. Using concrete language material, the author intends to verify the applicability of anthroponyms with regard to the communication flexibility of the speaker, respect for the rules of cultural partnership in communication and some leeway in the knowledge requirements and expectations toward the addressee, since cooperation and courtesy involving empathy, respect, tactfulness and solidarity are the presumed components of verbal behaviour of both interlocutors.
Lexical-semantic characteristics of the common noun háj (‘grove’) and the proper names Háj in relation to archaeological sites. (The archaeological site and motivation of its name from the aspects of history and linguistics)
Authors: Mitáš Vladimír , Žigo Pavol
Published: September 2021

The article is an attempt to employ the lexical-semantic reconstruction by Professor Vincent Blanár, whose 100th birthday the authors commemorate, to help us understand the cultural legacy of the past. The core of the text is a retrospective view of the names of areas with occurrence of Pre-Slavic material culture and an attempt to identify the motivating lexical units of the oronyms Háj and their derivatives from the territory of today’s Slovakia by means of interconnected knowledge from the fields of linguistics and archaeology. Proper names such as Háj/Háje occurred as late as in Slavic cultural and linguistic environment; however, material evidence at places with such names suggests presence of an older culture, i. e., settlement by population of a different cultural, social or linguistic provenance. In this study, the lexical-semantic reconstruction of the common noun háj in its original meaning as the motivating linguistic unit for oronyms such as Háj and their derivatives is reflected in the mirror of archaeological research. In connection with the sites named Háj/Háje in the regions of Gemer, Malohont, Novohrad or Hont in the south of Central Slovakia, the authors state that from the aspect of archaeology, they are at least remarkable places of the cultural landscape in which we can expect finds from various stages of prehistory and protohistory. The authors also emphasize that in the studied cases, this is not an absolute rule; it is rather a distinct signal of occurrence of archaeological finds.
Development of an effective therapy for alkaptonuria – Lessons for osteoarthritis
Authors: Gallagher James A. , Dillon Jane P. , Ranganath Lakshminarayan R.
Published: September 2021

Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the major causes of disability and pain worldwide, yet despite a massive international research effort, no effective disease-modifying drugs have been identified to date. In this review, we put forward the proposition that greater focus on rarer forms of OA could lead to a better understanding of the pathogenesis of more common OA. We have investigated the severe osteoarthropathy of the ultra-rare disease alkaptonuria (AKU). In addition to the progress made in finding a treatment for AKU, our research has revealed important lessons for more common OA, including the identification of high-density mineralized protrusions (HDMPs), new pathoanatomical structures which may play an important role in joint destruction and pain in AKU and in OA. AKU is an inherited disorder of tyrosine metabolism, caused by genetic lack of the enzyme homogentisate 1,2 dioxygenase (HGD), which leads to failure to breakdown homogentisic acid (HGA). While most HGA is excreted over time, some of it is deposited as a pigment in connective tissues, a process described as ochronosis. Ochronotic pigment alters the mechanical properties of tissues, leading to inevitable joint destruction and frequently to cardiac valve disease. Until recently, there was no effective therapy for AKU, but preclinical studies demonstrated that upstream inhibition of tyrosine metabolism by nitisinone, a drug previously used in hereditary tyrosinaemia 1 (HT1), completely prevented ochronosis in AKU mice. This was followed by successful clinical trials which have resulted in nitisinone being approved for therapy of AKU by the European Medicines Agency, making AKU the only cause of OA for which there is an effective therapy to date. Study of other rare causes of OA should be a higher priority for researchers and funders to ensure further advances in understanding and eventual therapy of OA.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic multisystem inflammatory disorder with significant morbidity and mortality. Making an early diagnosis and providing appropriate treatment decisions based on clinical and other parameter results in good disease control. Biomarkers, such as C reactive protein (CRP), anti-cyclic citrullinated peptides (anti-CCP), and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), have been traditionally used. Recently novel biomarkers are described. This article reviews the evidence behind a novel biomarker 14-3-3 η that has been found to provide additional diagnostic and prognostic information as well as predicting response to treatment. A systematic literature review is presented showing the evidence behind this molecule.

Published: September 2021

The purpose of the study. Study the organizational aspects of providing primary health care for victims with the facial department of the skeleton as a result of traffic accidents. Materials and methods. To achieve this goal, a retrospective study was conducted. The work included victims of road accidents with damage to the facial part of the skull between the ages of 18 and 70 years. In total, 150 victims were included in the study between 2000 and 2019. Results of the study and their analysis. The study shows that injuries to the facial skeleton as a result of traffic accidents are relevant. As a result of the study, it was found that as a result of an accident, there is approximately the same number of closed and open injuries. At the same time, open injuries, which could be regarded as medium and severe, were identified in 45 (30%) cases. In addition, data analysis showed that in 30,7% of observations, first aid was provided by random witnesses and/ or relatives of victims who did not have the skills and necessary knowledge to provide such assistance. In addition, an additional 19,3 per cent of first aid was provided by staff of various services who have some knowledge and skills in first aid. This is due to the fact that in the first group, first aid was provided faster than in the second group. The lack of the necessary skills to provide first aid to victims with such an injury can be explained by the rather high percentage of errors, which in the first group amounted to 18,7%, while employees of various services showed good results in providing such assistance and errors were not noted. Key words: primary health care, damage to the facial skeleton, traffic accident.

The article covers the principles of holding the infusion therapy at the prehospital stage with the ongoing uncontrolled bleeding. The scientific work shows the effectiveness of isoosmolar crystalloid solutions in conditions of low capillary pressure, which is typical for blood loss. The article shows that the concept of an acceptable hypotension is the most optimal approach to the infusion therapy if the ongoing bleeding is suspected in peacetime as well as in combat conditions. Recommendations are given for ensuring and maintaining venous access during short, long and delayed evacuation of victims with the suspected ongoing bleeding.

Conclusions. Today, cryptocurrencies are one of the promising financial instruments, the influence of which in the global financial system can significantly increase with the appropriate actions of the economic agents themselves. The positive impact on the elements of the global financial system will make cryptocurrencies more instrumental in the global foreign exchange and capital markets.
Analisis Faktor Cuaca dengan Kejadian Demam Berdarah Dengue (DBD) di Kabupaten Wonogiri Tahun 2014-2018
Authors: Nur Latifah Endah , Darundiati Yusniar Hanani , Wahyuningsih Nur Endah
Published: September 2021

Background:

Wonogiri Regency is one of the dengue endemic areas in Central Java with a fluctuating number of cases during 2014-2018. The number of dengue cases drastically increased nearly 4 times amounting 52 cases in 2016 to 207 cases in 2017. Weather factors such as rainfall, humidity, temperature, and wind velocity can affect the reproduction and spread of DHF vectors.

Objectives:

This study was aimed to analyze the association between weather factors (rainfall, humidity, temperature and wind velocity) with the incidence of dengue fever in Wonogiri Regency in 2014-2018.

Research Metodes:

This research was an analytic observational study using cross sectional approach. The type of data used was secondary data about the weather (rainfall, humidity, temperature and wind velocity) in Wonogiri Regency which was obtained from the Wonogiri Meteorological Station and data on the number of dengue incidents in Wonogiri Regency which were obtained from the Health Office of Central Java Province. The data were used each month for 5 years, from January 2014 to December 2018. Data were analyzed by using univariate and bivariate analysis (Rank Spearman correlation test), because only the humidity variable is normally distributed.

Results:

The highest number of dengue cases during 2014-2018 as many as 30 cases in November 2018 with an average of 6 cases, the highest rainfall was 887 mm with an average 191.05 mm, the highest humidity was 91.55% with an average of 86.77%, the highest temperature was 28.75oC with an average of 27.50oC and the highest wind velocity was 7.86 knots with an average of 0.89 knots. The results of the Spearman Rank correlation statistical test showed that there was a significant association with moderate strength and a positive direction between rainfall and the incidence of DHF (p = 0.001 and r = 0.420), which means that the increasing of rainfall, the more the number of DHF incidents. There was no significant association between humidity and the incidence of dengue fever (p = 0.925 and r = 0.012). There is a significant association with moderate strength and a negative direction between temperature and the incident of DHF (p = 0.001 and r = -0.415), which means that the increasing the temperature, the number of dengue cases decreases. There is no significant association between wind velocity and the incident of dengue (p = 0.577 and r = -0.073).

Conclusion:

Rainfall causes the breeding place of Aedes mosquitoes to increase, as a result it has an effect on the increase of the mosquito population. Temperature affects the number of eggs produced by Aedes mosquitoes, so that the density of adult mosquitoes increases.

Published: September 2021

Thirty-three samples of groundwater were taken from Dibdibba unconfined aquifer in the Zuber area southwestern parts of Basrah governorate south of Iraq to assess the groundwater quality. A statistical multivariate analysis was done using cations and anions, pH, total dissolved solids (TDS), and electrical conductivity (EC) that were measured for drinking, livestock, and construction purposes. Residual sodium bicarbonate (RSBC), Magnesium Ratio (MR), and Permeability index (PI) were used to evaluate the suitability of the present samples for irrigation activity. The quality of groundwater in the study area is unsuitable for drinking water, industrial and building uses. But it is suitable for livestock uses, According to Residual Sodium Carbonate and Magnesium Ratio the groundwater in the study area are suitable for irrigation purposes, but unsuitable for Permeability index. Multivariate analysis results indicate the high positive correlation between Ec and TDS with other constituents, two significant clusters I and II are obtained with significant Ec and TDS responsible for playing the most effective in classifying the present samples. 71.85% and l2.21% of the present of the total variance of the groundwater samples were explained by Factor analyses, Factor I indicated increasing Cl-, Mg+2, Na+, and Ca+2 with the highest weight and Factor II show lower weight average of K+ concentration only. The results confirm the dissolution of sulfate salts and evaporate minerals, in addition to high agricultural lands and farm activities, besides the wastes from chemical construction industries.
Efficient Modification of the Decomposition Method for Solving a System of PDEs
Authors: Tawfiq L. N. M. , Kareem Z. H.
Published: September 2021

This paper presents an analysis solution for systems of partial differential equations using a new modification of the decomposition method to overcome the computational difficulties. Convergence of series solution was discussed with two illustrated examples, and the method showed a high-precision, being a fast approach to solve the non-linear system of PDEs with initial conditions. There is no need to convert the nonlinear terms into the linear ones due to the Adomian polynomials. The method does not require any discretization or assumption for a small parameter to be present in the problem. The steps of the suggested method are easily implemented, with high accuracy and rapid convergence to the exact solution, compared with other methods that can be used to solve systems of PDEs.

Digital images are open to several manipulations and dropped cost of compact  cameras and mobile phones due to the robust image editing tools. Image credibility is therefore become doubtful, particularly where photos have power, for instance, news reports and insurance claims in a criminal court. Images forensic methods therefore measure the integrity of image  by apply different highly technical methods established in literatures. The present work deals with copy move forgery images of Media Integration and Communication Center Forgery (MICC-F2000) dataset for detecting and revealing the areas that have been tampered portion in the image, the image is sectioned into non overlapping blocks using Simple liner iterative clustering  (SLIC) method. Then, Scale invariant feature transform (SIFT) descriptor is applied on the grey of the handled image to gives distinctive key points that classified by K-Nearest neighbor to detect and localize the forged portion in the tempered image. The forgery detection results gave a performance percent of about 98%, which reflects the ability of the KNN classifier that cooperated with SIFT descriptor to detect the forged portions even if the forged area is rotated or scaled or both of them.
Playfair with Multi Strata Encryption
Authors: Salih Raghad K. , Yousif Madeha Sh.
Published: September 2021

Playfair cipher is a substitution scheme. The classical playfair scheme has a limited matrix size  containing only uppercase letters, so it is prone to hackers and cryptanalysis. To increase the resistance of playfair cipher, a new encipherment and decipherment method is proposed in this work, which depends on the permutation and its inverse, respectively. In addition, a modified  key matrix is utilized, which includes capital and small Alphabets, numbers, and 38 special characters collected from ASCII codes. In the proposed method, both substitution and transposition schemes are used, where the first stratum of the cipher is a substitution by using  key matrix and the second stratum is a transposition by using permutation key which provides multi strata resistance to brute force and other cryptanalysis attacks. A comparison between the traditional playfair scheme and the proposed method demonstrates that the encoded text is hard to recognize by cryptanalysts, which improves the security of the encryption process.

Gondolatok az euro magyarországi bevezetése időzítésének dilemmájáról
Authors: Gottfried Péter
Published: September 2021

Magyarország az EU-csatlakozási szerződésben határidőhöz nem kötött kötelezettséget vállalt az euro bevezetésére. Nem az a kérdés tehát, hogy bevezetjük-e, hanem hogy mikor és milyen feltételek játszanak szerepet a döntésben. Az elmúlt évek fejleményei igazolják az euro rendszerének válságállóságát, ugyanakkor arra intenek, hogy az euro önmagában nem garantálja a fenntartható konvergenciát. Nemcsak a csatlakozás, de a tagsággal járó jogok és kötelezettségek is sokat változtak, és ezek a változások nem fejeződtek be. Vannak példák euro nélküli sikeres gazdaságpolitikákra és euro melletti növekedési elakadásokra. Egy olyan területet sikerült azonosítani, ahol kétségtelenek a tagság előnyei: ez a hozamkülönbség. A mostani nemzetközi környezetben ennek fontossága messze elmarad a korábbiakhoz képest, de ez a helyzet, nem tudni, meddig tart. Ezért a magyar stratégia célkeresztjébe ne az euro bevezetését állítsuk, hanem a fenntartható felzárkózást. Ha képesek vagyunk az államháztartási hiány és az adósság határozott ütemű visszafordítására és alacsonyan tartására, akkor a stratégiai cél érdekében érdemes lenne megvárni az euróval kapcsolatos fejlődési irány körvonalazódását és a felzárkózás folytatását. Ha erre nem látunk esélyt, akkor érdemes a nagyobb biztonságot, de autonóm manőverezésre kisebb mozgásteret kínáló, mielőbbi euro-csatlakozás opcióját választani.
Az extrém eseményekre adott befektetői reakciók a magyar tőkepiacon

A tanulmányban az extrém eseményekre adott befektetői reakciókat vizsgáljuk a magyar tőkepiacon. Arra a kutatási kérdésre keressük a választ, hogy az extrém eseményeket követően megfigyelhetők-e túlzó mértékű befektetői reakciók a Budapesti Értéktőzsdén. A kutatási kérdés megválaszolása érdekében az extrém eseményeket a piaci portfólió kiugró hozamai alapján azonosítjuk, majd eseményablak-elemzés segítségével megvizsgáljuk a nyertes és a vesztes részvények abnormális hozamait. A befektetői reakciók vizsgálatát követően a kontrariánus stratégia teljesítményét vizsgáljuk meg a kialakított eseményablakokban. Kutatásunk legfontosabb eredménye annak bemutatása, hogy az extrém eseményeket követően az átlagos kumulált abnormális hozamok közötti különbségek vizsgálata alapján a túlzó mértékű befektetői reakciók igazolhatók a magyar tőkepiacon. Az extrém eseményekhez kapcsolódó vesztes portfóliók szignifikánsan felülteljesítik az eseményhez kapcsolódó nyertes portfóliókat. A kontrariánius stratégia többlethozama nem a vesztes és nyertes portfóliók piaci kockázatában megfigyelhető különbségeknek tulajdonítható. A stratégia többlethozama csak szigorúbb extrémérték-határok mellett mutatható ki. A reverziót tartalmazó eseményablakok, a magas piaci volatilitás és az extrém események klasztereződése a kontrariánus stratégia teljesítményének kedvez. Kutatásunk továbbá arra is rámutat, hogy az extrém eseményeket követően a vesztes portfóliók megvásárlása vagy egy kontrariánus stratégia kialakítása nyereséget termelhet a befektetők számára, mert az extrém eseményeket követően a vesztes portfóliók a 21 napos időtávon a legtöbb esetben megverik a piacot.
Functionality in the ICU in neurological patients-What we found in the evaluation?
Authors: Viana Soares Elizabeth , Saramago de Lima Pedro Henrique , da Silva Erthal Pinto Eduardo Augusto
Published: September 2021

The intensive care environment has been increasing its demand gradually in relation to the number of patients and the severity of the diseases. The functional limitations resulting from patients admitted to the ICU for neurological diseases are numerous and will depend on the severity, location and extent of the injury. The objective is to evaluate the function of neurocritical patients using the PERME scale. A cross-sectional observational study was carried out at the ICU of Hospital Ferreira Machado in Campos dos Goytacazes / RJ from November 2019 to November 2020, including patients with stroke and TBI. The sample consisted of 13 patients, 76.9% of whom were male, with a mean age of ± 51.2 years. The PERME scale had a maximum score of 16 and a minimum of one point, respectively. The present study identified that neurocritical patients have little functionality within the ICU, but identifies that perhaps this scale is not the most suitable for assessing neurocritical patients.

Objetivo: Ampliar os conhecimentos sobre a catarata. Revisão bibliográfica: A catarata é uma doença resultante da opacificação do cristalino ocular que pode afetar crianças, adultos e idosos, sendo mais comum em pessoas de idade avançada. A doença dificulta a penetração da luz no olho e, consequentemente, a formação da imagem na retina, muitas vezes ocasionando sérios problemas para as pessoas acometidas no desenvolvimento de suas atividades diárias. Na presença de alterações visuais, o paciente deverá procurar o médico oftalmologista para realização de exames específicos. O tratamento para catarata pode variar desde clínico, apenas com uso de lentes corretivas ou poderá ser cirúrgico. Considerações finais: A catarata é um problema de visão que pode cursar com amaurose, comprometendo de forma significativa a qualidade de vida do indivíduo que possui a doença. Portanto, na presença de sintomas visuais sugestivos o paciente deverá procurar um oftalmologista para realização do diagnóstico e estabelecimento de um plano terapêutico de acordo com as necessidades do caso.
