Tier 2 interventions within the RtI-model for developing students’ word decoding – a systematic review and meta-analysis
Authors: Nilvius Camilla , Carlsson Rickard , Fälth Linda , Nordström Thomas
Published: October 2020

AbstractObjectives: This PRISMA pre-registered systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to determine if K–2 students at-risk for reading impairment benefited from tier 2 reading intervention compared to teaching as usual (TAU) on word decoding outcomes.Eligibility criteria: Adequately sized randomized controlled trials of tier 2 reading interventions within the Response to Intervention (RtI) model were included. Trials targeted K–2 at-risk students compared with TAU controls, for at least 20 sessions of intervention in school with more than 30 students per group. Information sources: A database search of ERIC, PsycINFO, LLBA, Web of Science and Google Scholar took place, followed by hand searches of reviews and meta-analyses. Risk of bias: Studies were assessed with Cochrane’s risk of bias tool (Rob 2), R-index and funnel plots. Included studies: Seven studies met the eligibility criteria but only four had sufficient data to extract for the meta-analysis.Synthesis of results: The weighted mean effect size across the four included studies was Hedges’ g = 0.31 95% CI [0.12, 0.50] which means that the intervention group improved their decoding more than students receiving TAU. Leave-one-out analysis showed that the weighted effect was not dependent on a single study. Description of the effect: Students at-risk of reading difficulties benefit from tier 2 reading interventions as evidenced by a small effect on decoding ability. Strengths and limitations of evidence: This systematic review used the PRISMA gold standard but only four studies met inclusion criteria.Interpretation: Tier 2 reading interventions, conducted in small groups within RtI, can support decoding development.
Thought-Action Fusion and Psychopathologies: A Review of Literature
Authors: Türkarslan Kutlu Kağan
Published: October 2020

Thought–action fusion (TAF) can be defined as the tendency to equate the thought of an action with the realization of the action. This article reviews the present literature on TAF. Many studies over thirty years have been conducted to investigate TAF and its relationship with various psychopathologies. Emanating from OCD literature, TAF was also found to be present in anxiety disorders, depression, schizophrenia, and eating disorders. The recent neuroscience studies on TAF suggest that precuneus, lingual gyrus, caudate nucleus, and several frontal and occipital cortex regions are activated during TAF experiences. The findings were discussed in terms of TAF’s specificity to OCD, the possible role of mental imagery in the formation of TAF, and suggestions for further research were made.

Leonard Cohen’s Jewish Theodicy: We Are Waiting for Godot, But It Is We Who May Never Arrive
Authors: Pally Marcia
Published: October 2020

The work of Leonard Cohen, called the “black romantic” by Stephen Scobie, has been explored for its sex, politics, darkness, and struggle with faith. Cohen’s imagery has also been widely interrogated in critical and popular studies. The present article builds on this literature to explore a consistent theology and theodicy in Cohen’s writings. The theology is grounded in the covenant of Cohen’s Jewish tradition. It is Cohen’s reckoning with humanity’s failure to act covenantally with God and persons—though we are made as covenantal creatures, dependent on these bonds to survive and flourish. The easy theodicy says our suffering is self-inflicted: a fallen humanity breaks covenant for the possibility of gain and so injures itself. Cohen saw the tougher reality of many theodical inquiries: if we wound ourselves, the God who made us, made us so. We breach covenant because breaching is easy for us. Thus, the question and anguish that prod much of Cohen’s work is not only “Why does humanity fail covenant?” but also “Why did an omnipotent God create humanity so prone to fail it?” The article begins with a discussion of covenant in the Jewish tradition. Cohen’s theodicy is then traced through his verse. Attention is given to several topoi, including the use of doubled images to refer at once to divine and human persons; Cohen’s use of Jewish and Christian imagery; and theodicy as a way to understand Cohen’s relations with women.
A new coleopterous family Mesocinetidae fam. nov. (Coleoptera: Scirtoidea) from Late Mesozoic and notes on fossil remains from Shar-Teg (Upper Jurassic, South-Western Mongolia)
Authors: Kirejtshuk A.G. , Ponomarenko A.G.
Published: October 2020

The paper deals with the description of the new family, Mesocinetidae fam. nov., four new genera (Manoelodes gen. nov., Manopsis gen. nov., Parashartegus gen. nov. and Shartegus gen. nov.) and eight new species (Manoelodes gratiousus sp. nov., Manopsis concavicollis sp. nov., Mesocinetus aequalis sp. nov., M. angustitarsis sp. nov., M. elumbis sp. nov., M. subjectus sp. nov., Parashartegus distinctus sp. nov. and Shartegus transversus sp. nov.) originated from site Shar-Teg (South-Western Mongolia; Gobi-Altai ajmag) with the Upper Jurassic age. Other species of this new family (Mesocinetus mongolicus Ponomarenko, 1986 (Myangad, Hovd ajmag, West Mongolia) and M. ovatus Ponomarenko, 1990 (Undurga, Chitinskaya Region, Transbaikalia, Russia)) are known from the Lower Neocomian, Lower Cretaceous, although M. ovatus is temporally excluded from the genus Mesocinetus Ponomarenko, 1986. The key to the genera of this family is elaborated. Specimens of the new family found also in other places (Karatau (Upper Jurassic), Baissa (Lower Cretaceous), Khutel-Khara and Liaoning (both at the boundary between Jurassic and Cretaceous)) and can be expected in many Asian Late Mesozoic sites. This new family is rather similar to both families Scirtidae and Eucinetidae, sharing different characters with each of them. The structure of the superfamily Scirtoidea and placement of the new family are discussed. The composition of fossil animals and plants in the Shar-Teg sediments is reviewed and time of its formation is estimated.
Lacanyen Yaklaşımda Yeni Ruhsal Yapılanmalar ve Vaka Tartışması
Authors: ÖZKAN Aylin
Published: October 2020

Freud ensestin yasaklanmasıyla başlayan uygarlığın ruhsal ekonomiler üzerindeki etkisinden söz etmiştir. Ardından Lacan, Freud’a dönüş kapsamındaki çalışmalarında ruhsal yapılanmanın dil ve yasanın temsilcisi olan Başka (Autre) ile ilişkisini ele almıştır. Bu ilişkilenmede Baba-nın-Adı (Nom-du-Père), bastırmayı mümkün kılan ve Başka ile ilişkiyi düzenleyen ilk gösteren olarak yer alır. İçinde yaşanılan kültür ve ruhsal yapılanma arasında sıkı bir ilişki bulunmaktadır. Günümüzde ise içinde yaşanılan kültür ve hâkim olan söylem değişmektedir. Kültürde var olan değişim Melman ve arkadaşları tarafından Yeni Ruhsal Ekonomiler (Nouvelle Économie Psychique - NEP) başlığı altında tartışılmakta ve bu değişimin psikanaliz pratiğindeki yansımaları çalışılmaktadır. Melman, bu değişim kapsamında Başka’ya olan referansın zayıflamasının, onun yerine imkânsızlığı ortadan kaldırarak neredeyse her alana etki edebilen teknolojinin geçmesinin ve sınırsızlığın popülerleşerek tercih edilen bir noktaya gelmesinin ruhsal yapılanmaların arzu ve bastırma yerine jouissance üzerinden şekillenmesine sebebiyet vermekte olduğuna vurgu yapmaktadır. Bu yazıda, Lacanyen kuram çerçevesinde ruhsal yapılanma ele alınarak bir vaka örneği üzerinden günümüzdeki değişimin yansımaları tartışılmıştır. Günümüzde depresyonun deneyimlenme biçimi, Başka’ya referansın azalması sebebiyle simgesel alanda konumlanmakta zorlanma, bu zorlanmaya jouissance ve beden üzerinden çözüm bulma çabaları fakat jouissance içinde sıkışma ve başkaları ile paranoyaklaşan formda ilişkilenme bu yazıda odaklanılan tartışma konularıdır.
Lacanyen Tanıda Psikoz: Tetiklenmemiş Psikozun Klinik bir Vakada Tartışılması
Authors: NECEF Işıl
Published: October 2020

Lacanyen teoride klinik bir tanı olan psikoz, psikotik kırılma kavramının ötesini içermekte ve bu klinik durumu kişinin Başka ile ilişkileri kapsamında değerlendirmektedir. Psikozun temel mekanizması olan Babanın Adı’nın (baş gösteren) hesaptan düşmesi psikotik klinik yapıyı belirlemektedir. Baş gösterenin hesaptan düşmesi kişinin simgesel düzene geçmesini engellemekte ve bu durum psikozda dil bozukluklarının meydana gelmesinin temel nedeni olarak nitelendirilmektedir. Kişi simgesel düzenin yokluğunda geriye kalan imgesel ve gerçek düzenlerini birleştirecek bir araca sahip değildir. Baş gösterenin yokluğunda kişi, imgesel özdeşleşmeler bularak bir nevi telafi etme mekanizmasına başvurmuş olur. Sanrıların ve hezeyanların tetiklenmesinden önce kişi, telafi etme mekanizmasını ancak bu bahsi geçen imgesel özdeşleşimlerle anlam bulabilme çabası içerisinde belirleyebilir. Bu makalede, öncelikle psikozun Lacanyen teorideki başlıca ögeleri sıralanmış, sonrasında tetiklenmemiş psikoz kavramı, imgesel özdeşleşmeleri ve dil bozuklukları mevcut olan, ancak sanrı ve hezeyan bulgusu saptanmamış bir vaka örneği çerçevesinde tartışılmış ve psikozdaki psikoterapi sürecinin nevrozdaki psikoterapiden farklılaşan yanları da ele alınarak psikoz Lacanyen yaklaşımın ışığında incelenmiştir.

Authors: MARAŞ Ayşen , GENÇÖZ Faruk
Published: October 2020

Bu çalışmada, genç yetişkinlerin baba kaybı ve yas deneyimini derinlemesine incelemek hedeflenmiştir. Bu amaçla, yedi genç yetişkin ile yarı yapılandırılmış derinlemesine görüşmeler gerçekleştirilerek, “Genç yetişkinlerde baba kaybı nasıl deneyimlenmektedi r?” sorusunu cevaplamak amaçlanmıştır. Yapılan görüşmeler, Yorumlayıcı Fenomonolojik Analiz (Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis) ile analiz edilmiştir. Bu makalede elde edilen temaların dört tanesi ayrıntılandırılarak sunulmuştur. Bu temaları, baba kaybının sembolik anlamları, baba kaybının ardından hissedilen duygular, babasız bir yaşamla başa çıkmak ve uyum sağlamak ve yas sürecini zorlaştıran faktörler oluşturmaktadır. Baba kaybının sembolik anlamları, babalarının ölümünün genç yetişkinlerin iç dünyasında açığa çıkardığı anlamları ifade etmektedir. Sonuçlara göre, genç yetişkinler, babalarını önemli bir “sıcaklık, ilgi, koruma, sakinleştirme, rehberlik ve otorite” kaynağı olarak değerlendirmekte ve ölümünün ardından bu ihtiyaçlarını karşılamakta belirgin zorluklar ile karşı karşıya gelmektedirler. Baba kaybının ardından hissedilen duygular, yas sürecinde hissedilen üzüntü, yalnızlık, boşluk, özlem, korku, rahatlama, öfke ve suçluluk gibi duyguları kapsamakta; öfke ve suçluluk duygularının ise özellikle şiddetlendiği bazı özel durumların varlığına işaret etmektedir. Üçüncü tema, babasız bir yaşamla başa çıkmak ve uyum sağlamak ise kayba önsel hazırlık, yaşantıyı anlamlandırmaya çalışma, duygusal dışavurum, kaçınma, sosyal destek alma, babanın yerini dolduracak romantik ilişkiler arama ile yeni ideal ve hedefler oluşturma gibi başa çıkma yöntemlerini kapsamaktadır. Dördüncü tema yas sürecini zorlaştıran faktörler, bazı kişilik özellikleri (içedönüklük, duygusallık, depresiflik) ile annenin çökkünlüğü, baba ile ilişki kurma tarzı gibi faktörleri içermektedir. Temaların içerikleri, Türkiye’deki genç yetişkinlerin, gelişimsel özellikleri ve yaşadıkları kültür ile ilişki içinde ortaya çıkan deneyimleri hakkında aydınlatıcı bilgiler açığa çıkarmıştır. Temaların nasıl yorumlanabileceği, makalenin son bölümünde tartışılmıştır.
United States emergency department visits for children with cerebrospinal fluid shunts
Authors: Hari-Raj Amrita , Malthaner Lauren Q. , Shi Junxin , Leonard Jeffrey R. , Leonard Julie C.
Published: October 2020

OBJECTIVE

CSF shunt placement is the primary therapy for hydrocephalus; however, shunt malfunctions remain common and lead to neurological deficits if missed. There is a lack of literature characterizing the epidemiology of children with possible shunt malfunctions presenting to United States emergency departments (EDs).

METHODS

A retrospective study was conducted of the 2006–2017 National Emergency Department Sample. The data were queried using an exhaustive list of Current Procedural Terminology and International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision and International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision codes representing children with hydrocephalus diagnoses, diagnostic imaging for shunt malfunctions, and shunt-related surgical revision procedures.

RESULTS

In 2017, there were an estimated 16,376 ED visits for suspected shunt malfunction. Children were more commonly male (57.9%), ages 0–4 years (42.2%), and publicly insured (55.8%). Many did not undergo diagnostic imaging (37.2%), and of those who did, most underwent head CT scans (43.7%). Between 2006 and 2017, pediatric ED visits for suspected shunt malfunction increased 18% (95% CI 12.1–23.8). The use of MRI increased substantially (178.0%, 95% CI 176.9–179.2). Visits resulting in discharge home from the ED increased by 76.3% (95% CI 73.1–79.4), and those involving no surgical intervention increased by 32.9% (95% CI 29.2–36.6).

CONCLUSIONS

Between 2006 and 2017, ED visits for children to rule out shunt malfunction increased, yet there was a decline in surgical intervention and an increase in discharges home from the ED. Possible contributing factors include improved clinical criteria for shunt evaluation, alternative CSF diversion techniques, changing indications for shunt placement, and increased use of advanced imaging in the ED.

Published: October 2020

OBJECTIVE

The objective of this study was to illustrate the feasibility and value of extra- and intraoperative stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) in patients who underwent resection in rolandic and perirolandic regions.

METHODS

The authors retrospectively reviewed all consecutive patients with at least 1 year of postoperative follow-up who underwent extra- and intraoperative SEEG monitoring between January 2015 and January 2017.

RESULTS

Four patients with pharmacoresistant rolandic and perirolandic focal epilepsy were identified, who underwent conventional extraoperative invasive SEEG evaluations followed by adjuvant intraoperative SEEG recordings. Conventional extraoperative SEEG evaluations demonstrated ictal and interictal epileptiform activities involving eloquent rolandic and perirolandic cortical areas in all patients. Following extraoperative monitoring, patients underwent preplanned staged resections guided by simultaneous and continuous adjuvant intraoperative SEEG monitoring. Resections, guided by electrode contacts of interest in 3D boundaries, were performed while continuous real-time electrographic data from SEEG recordings were obtained. Staged approaches of resections were performed until there was intraoperative resolution of synchronous rolandic/perirolandic cortex epileptic activities. All patients in the cohort achieved complete seizure freedom (Engel class IA) during the follow-up period ranging from 18 to 50 months. Resection resulted in minimal neurological deficit; 3 patients experienced transient, distal plantar flexion weakness (mild foot drop).

CONCLUSIONS

The seizure and functional outcome results of this highly preselected group of patients testifies to the feasibility and demonstrates the value of the combined benefits of both intra- and extraoperative SEEG recordings when resecting the rolandic and perirolandic areas. The novel hybrid method allows a more refined and precise identification of the epileptogenic zone. Consequently, tailored resections can be performed to minimize morbidity as well as to achieve adequate seizure control.

Published: October 2020

OBJECTIVE

The consequences of failed spinal hardware secondary to wound complications can increase the burden on the patient while also significantly escalating the cost of care. The objective of this study was to demonstrate the effectiveness of a protocol-based multidisciplinary approach in optimizing wound outcome in complex oncological spine care patients.

METHODS

A retrospective consecutive case series was performed from 2015 to 2019 of all patients who underwent oncological spine surgery. A protocol was established to identify oncological patients at high risk for potential wound complications. Preoperative and postoperative treatment plans were developed by the multidisciplinary tumor board team members. Wound healing risk factors such as diabetes, obesity, prior spine surgery, pre- or postoperative chemotherapy or radiation exposure, perioperative steroid use, and poor nutritional status were recorded. Operative details, including the regions of spinal involvement, presence of instrumentation, and number of vertebral levels operated on, were reviewed. Primary outcomes were the length of hospitalization and major (requiring reoperation) and minor wound complications in the setting of the aforementioned identified risk factors.

RESULTS

A total of 102 oncological cases were recorded during the 5-year study period. Of these patients, 99 had local muscle flap reconstruction with layered closure over their surgical hardware. The prevalence of smoking, diabetes, and previous spine surgery for the cohort was 21.6%, 20.6%, and 27.5%, respectively. Radiation exposure was seen in 72.5% of patients (37.3% preoperative vs 48% postoperative exposure). Chemotherapy was given to 66.7% of the patients (49% preoperatively and 30.4% postoperatively). The rate of perioperative steroid exposure was 60.8%. Prealbumin and albumin levels were 15.00 ± 7.47 mg/dL and 3.23 ± 0.43 mg/dL, respectively. Overall, an albumin level of < 3.5 mg/dL and BMI < 18.5 were seen in 64.7% and 13.7% of the patients, respectively. The mean number of vertebral levels involved was 6.76 ± 2.37 levels. Instrumentation of 7 levels or more was seen in 52.9% of patients. The average spinal wound defect size was 22.06 ± 7.79 cm. The rate of minor wound complications, including superficial skin breakdown (epidermolysis) and nonoperative seromas, was 6.9%, whereas that for major complications requiring reoperation within 90 days of surgery was 2.9%.

CONCLUSIONS

A multidisciplinary team approach utilized in complex multilevel oncological spine reconstruction surgery optimizes surgical outcomes, reduces morbidities, and improves care and satisfaction in patients with known risk factors.
A Virtual Ethnography Study: The Role of Cultural Radios in Campursari Music Proliferation in East Java
Authors: Achmad Zainal Abidin , Ida Rachmah , Mustain Mustain
Published: October 2020

Campursari music is a trend on the radio and a favorite of the people of East Java, so it is shifting towards popular culture. This study aims to uncover the proliferation of campursari music and the role of cultural radios. This qualitative research uses a virtual ethnography method, which focuses on the physical presence and virtual text together. The subjects are technology (radio and communication technology on the internet), humans (radio listeners), physical interactions, and virtual interactions. Data collection used participant observation through observation and interviews offline and online in the form of various texts, writings, images, and audiovisuals on Facebook, Twitter, WhatsApp, Instagram, and Youtube. The informants of this study were four cultural experts, namely: Sumadi, Anton Sani, Ibnu Hajar, and Juwono. This study carried out participatory involvement for one year in the virtual world and 30 days living in four cities: Surabaya, Nganjuk, Banyuwangi, and Sumenep.

Manthous's campursari music is a fusion of pentatonic and diatonic scales despite the addition of various musical instruments. It has several sub-genres, including campursari janger, campursari kendang-kempul, campursari keroncong dangdut, campursari dangdut Madura, campursari jaranan dangdut, campursari dangdut koplo, campursari dangdut hip-hop, and campursari dangdut acoustic. Cultural programs and campursari music reinforce the reliability of radio to maintain local culture (Javanese, Madura, Using). They are a means of maintaining local identities to stem global culture. No matter how hard the invasion of foreign culture, can not disrupt the local tastes of people. Campursari music proliferation is a modification to traditional music to serve the tastes of the people, to avoid it from extinction. Campursari music must be able to adapt to the current era. The four radio cultures in East Java make campursari music a primary commodity to attract radio listeners and as part of the lives of local people.

Authors: Yilmaz Furkan M. , Igneri Lauren A. , Yilmaz Yasir A. , Burakgazi-Dalkilic Evren
Published: October 2020

The purpose of this review is to summarize the recent literature focusing on intravenous (IV) administration of commonly used anesthetics, including midazolam, pentobarbital/ thiopental, propofol, and ketamine in the treatment of status epilepticus (SE). Anesthetics should be reserved as third-line therapy for the treatment of SE when benzodiazepines and other second-line agents fail to terminate the seizure. We have reviewed the literature related to the treatment of status epilepticus, refractory status epilepticus, super-refractory status epilepticus, anesthetics, midazolam, pentobarbital/thiopental, propofol, and ketamine. This paper focuses on the pharmacology, dosages, major side effects, and clinical use of IV anesthetics in the treatment of SE with an emphasis on the developing literature supporting the use of ketamine for this indication. Based on the available literature, we propose recommendations for third-line agent selection in the management of SE.

Background: A significant proportion of people with dementia live alone, but little is known about their specific needs. Objective: To understand the profile of people living alone with mild-to-moderate dementia in the UK and identify any systematic differences associated with living situation. Methods: We analyzed cross-sectional data from 1,541 people with mild-to-moderate dementia and 1,277 caregivers participating in the IDEAL cohort at the first wave of assessment. Results: There were 1,256 (81.5%) people with dementia living with others and 285 (18.5%) living alone, of whom 51 (3% of whole sample) reported little or no informal support. There were relatively few differences associated with living situation and odds ratios were generally small. People living alone were older on average, and more likely to be female, than those living with others. Those living alone were more likely to have higher cognitive ability and self-reported functional ability, and more social contact with those from other households. They were also lonelier, expressed less satisfaction with life, and used home care services and equipment more. There were no differences in symptoms, mood, quality of life, or well-being. Conclusion: The findings support the view that it is possible to ‘live well’ with mild-to-moderate dementia while living alone, given appropriate support, including home care and equipment. Nevertheless, it is important to consider how those living alone may be supported to have a more satisfactory experience, and how health and social care services can best respond to their needs.
Multi-attribute decision-making method based on a novel distance measure of linguistic intuitionistic fuzzy sets
Authors: Cheng Yali , Li Yonghong , Yang Jie
Published: October 2020

Linguistic intuitionistic fuzzy sets can qualitatively rather than quantitatively express data in the form of membership degree. But quantitative tools are required to handle qualitative information. Therefore, an improved linguistic scale function, which can more accurately manifest the subjective feelings of decision-makers, is employed to deal with linguistic intuitionistic information. Subsequently, due to some commonly used distance measures do not comprehensively evaluate the information of linguistic intuitionistic fuzzy sets, an improved distance measure of linguistic intuitionistic fuzzy sets is designed. It considers the cross-evaluation information to get more realistic reasoning results. In addition, a new similarity measure defined by nonlinear Gaussian diffusion model is proposed, which can provide different response scales for different information between various schemes. The properties of these measures are also studied in detail. On this basis, a method in linguistic intuitionistic fuzzy environment is developed to handle multi-attribute decision-making problems. Finally, an illustrative example is given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method and the influence of the parameters is analyzed.
Risk preference of top management team and the failure of technological innovation in firms–based on principal component analysis and probit regression
Authors: Zhang Yang , Ye Jianmu
Published: October 2020

As an important psychological feature that affects the strategic decision-making of top management team (TMT), risk preference exerts important impact on the failure of innovation. Taking Chinese pharmaceutical listed companies from 2011 to 2017 as research samples, this paper uses principal component analysis and probit regression model to empirically test the impact of TMT risk preference on technological innovation failure of firms from the perspective of government intervention. It is found that TMT’s risk preference has a significantly positive impact on the failure of firms’ technological innovation. The regulatory role of government intervention between TMT’s risk preference and failure of firms’ technological innovation is an inverted U-shaped relationship. Low or high level of government intervention will promote the positive impact of TMT’s risk preference on the failure of technological innovation, and increase the risk of technological innovation failure. The findings of this study contribute to: (1) broaden the research perspective of technological innovation failure. (2) The innovation failure rate can be reduced by constructing or optimizing the TMT and the government intervening in firm innovation through reasonable and perfect technology innovation guidance policies. (3) expand the research means of innovation failure, making the results more convincing.

Authors: Akram Muhammad , Naz Sumera , Shahzadi Sundas , Ziaa Faiza
Published: October 2020

q-Rung orthopair fuzzy sets (q-ROFSs), originally proposed by Yager, can powerfully modify the range of indication of decision information by changing a parameter q based on the different hesitation degree, and the dual hesitant q-rung orthopair fuzzy set (DHq-ROFS), a new technique to consider human’s hesitance, can be more substantial of dealing with real multi-attribute decision making (MADM) problems. Inspired by DHq-ROFSs, in this article, we extend the concept of q-rung orthopair fuzzy graphs to dual hesitant q-rung orthopair fuzzy context and introduce the innovative concept of a dual hesitant q-rung orthopair fuzzy graphs based on Hamacher operator called dual hesitant q-rung orthopair fuzzy Hamacher graphs (DHq-ROFHGs). We propose the new concepts of geometric-arithmetic energy and atom bond connectivity energy of a DHq-ROFHG and determine its upper and lower bounds. Moreover, on the basis of the proposed concept of DHq-ROFHGs, we introduce a new approach to solve the MADM problems with dual hesitant q-rung orthopair fuzzy information. At the end, we give a numerical model related to the selection of most significant defensive factor to illustrate the applicability of the developed approach, and exhibit its viability. Comparative analysis is conducted and the superiorities are illustrated.

Based on the results, there was a very low relationship between naturalistic intelligence and biology learning outcomes, there was a low relationship between learning interest with biology learning outcomes, as well as between naturalistic intelligence and learning interest with biology learning outcomes of high school students in Luwuk City.
ОКРЕМІ АСПЕКТИ РЕАЛІЗАЦІЇ ПРИНЦИПУ ДОБРОВІЛЬНОСТІ В ПРОЦЕДУРІ МЕДІАЦІЇ В УКРАЇНІ

Published: October 2020

Жодне визначення медіації як альтернативного методу вирішення спорів не обходиться без слова «добровільна». Добровільна природа медіації, серед іншого, позитивно відрізняє медіацію від судового розгляду спору, дає змогу сторонам спору досягти взаємовигідних умов вирішення спору, адже вони самі погоджуються на медіацій ну процедуру, беруть у ній участь і приймають рішення щодо укладення чи не укладення угоди. Медіація передбачена міжнародним і національним законодавством, але досвід показує, що її обсяги можуть бути різними, особливо коли регулюється ступінь обов’язковості застосування добровільної процедури. Водночас таке протиріччя термінів має логічне обгрунтування, адже законодавець намагається якнайефективніше узгодити систему судових і позасудових методів вирішення спорів.

ЗАСАДИ ДІЯЛЬНОСТІ СПЕЦІАЛІЗОВАНОЇ АНТИКОРУПЦІЙНОЇ ПРОКУРАТУРИ
Authors: Юрчишин Василь Миколайович
Published: October 2020

Публікація присвячена дослідженню повноважень Спеціалізованої антикорупційної прокуратури в протидії корупції. Охарактеризовано нормативно-правову основу діяльності Спеціалізованої антикорупційної прокуратури. Проаналізовано її роль щодо протидії корупції в розрізі конституційних функцій прокуратури.

Корупція вважається негативним явищем, яке загрожує національній безпеці, демократичному розвитку держави та суспільства, конституційному ладу України. Корупційні прояви підривають авторитет країни, перешкоджають функціонуванню державного апарату, обмежують конституційні права і свободи людини та громадянина, порушують принципи верховенства права, встановлений порядок здійснення повнова­жень посадовими і службовими особами органів державної влади, управлін­ських структур приватного сектору, знищують морально-етичні цінності, дискредитують державу на міжнародному рівні. Корумпованість українсько­го суспільства визнана однією з перешкод на шляху до інтеграції України в європейський простір. Прокуратура України посідає центральне місце в системі правоохоронних органів у сфері боротьби з корупцією. Вона здійснює протидію корупції шляхом реалізації функцій процесуального керівництва досудовим розслідуванням і підтримання державного обвинувачення, представницьку діяльність у позакримінальній сфері, координацію дій пра­воохоронних органів у сфері протидії кримінальній корупції. Окремі елементи боротьби з корупційними виявами наявні також і під час реалізації функції нагляду за виконанням су­дових рішень у кримінальних справах, застосування інших заходів примусового характеру, що обмежують особисту свободу громадян. Процесуальне керів­ництво досудовим розслідуванням варто роз­глядати в рамках і контексті єдиного цілого, у форматі виду прокурорського нагляду, покладаючи в такий спосіб край усім диску­сіям навколо штучно створеної проблеми.
КОНТРОЛЬ ЯК ФУНКЦІЯ ПУБЛІЧНОГО АДМІНІСТРУВАННЯ: ПОНЯТТЯ ТА ПРИНЦИПИ РЕАЛІЗАЦІЇ
Authors: Неугодніков Андрій Олександрович
Published: October 2020

Стаття присвячена аналізу контрольної функції суб’єктів публічної адміністрації. Досліджено теоретико-правові засади реалізації функції контролю. Визначено сучасний стан та перспективи переоцінки основоположних принципів контрольної діяльності публічної адміністрації.

Дієва участь широкого кола представників різних соціальних сфер – політиків, владних інституцій, науково-експертного середовища, громадянських об’єднань у здійсненні публічного адміністрування перетворює його у складний процес пошуку спільних рішень, досягнення консенсусу тощо. Сьогодні головними постають проблеми співвідношення адміністрування і політики, політичного контролю та державного управління, відповідальності і підзвітності держави своїм громадянам. Метою статті є дослідження сутнісних детермінант контролю як функції публічного адміністрування та принципів його реалізації.

Встановлено, що метою контролю є виявлення помилок у процесі управління, їх своєчасне виправлення і недопущення повторення, а також забезпечення відповідності між поставленими цілями та фактичними діями учасників адміністративного права. Контроль як функція публічного адміністрування полягає у своєчасному виявлені та усуненні факторів, які заважають ефективному здійсненню публічного адміністрування та унеможливлюють забезпечення належного рівня правозастосовної діяльності.

Практичного значення має поділ функцій публічного адміністрування в залежності від сфери їх застосування на загальні, спеціальні, допоміжні (обслуговуючі). Загальні функції властиві публічному адмініструванню незалежно від рівня управлінських структур. До загальних функцій публічного адміністрування належить функція контролю. В умовах необхідного розширення демократії, децентралізації влади державне управління реформується в публічне адміністрування, з характерними для нього властивостями широкого залучення громадськості, сервісного призначення й транспарентності.

Published: October 2020

Introdução: Além de grande prevalente na população idosa, a sarcopenia tem se tornado precursora do declínio funcional nessa população. Torna-se necessário encontrar meios alternativos para rastreio. Objetivos: O objetivo do presente estudo foi avaliar a sensibilidade e especificidade do instrumento de rastreio da sarcopenia SARC-F. Métodos: A amostra foi constituída por 153 idosos de ambos os sexos. O screening da sarcopenia foi avaliado pelo questionário SARC-F. Para diagnóstico da sarcopenia avaliou-se força, função e massa muscular através do protocolo adaptado do European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People (EWGSOP). A sensibilidade e especificidade do questionário foram avaliadas por meio da curva ROC. Resultados: 13,72% dos idosos avaliados foram classificados como sarcopênicos. Os parâmetros mais relacionados com a sarcopenia foram maior idade e falta de prática de exercícios físicos. O sexo não foi um parâmetro que teve relação na classificação. A sensibilidade foi de 60,0% e especificidade de 80,92% com uma área sobre a curva de 0,70. Conclusão: Nossos dados apoiam o uso do SARC-F como uma ferramenta de rastreio que pode ser usada em ambientes comunitários e hospitalares como ferramenta de triagem rápida.

Objetivos: Verificar a influência da crioterapia de imersão na força isométrica e potência de membros inferiores de atletas. Métodos: Neste estudo transversal do tipo crossover, 14 sujeitos foram avaliados em três momentos. Primeiro realizaram os testes de caracterização: antropometria (massa, estatura e composição corporal), capacidade aeróbia (teste de esforço cardiopulmonar) e recordatório alimentar. Na segunda e na terceira visita foram ministrados os testes de impulsão vertical em tapete de contato e o pico de torque isométrico da musculatura extensora de joelhos no CYBEX isocinético. Estes testes foram realizados em três momentos: 1) em situação basal; 2) após o protocolo de fadiga; e 3) após o protocolo de recuperação: repouso ativo ou crioterapia de imersão. O protocolo de fadiga incidia em correr na velocidade correspondente a 120% do VO2MAX até a falha motora. Para a crioterapia de imersão, os sujeitos submergiram os membros inferiores até o nível das gônadas em um tanque contendo gelo e água, permanecendo na posição ortostática por 10 minutos. A temperatura da água foi monitorada utilizando um termômetro subaquático (10 ± 1°c). Para recuperação ativa, os sujeitos repetiram o procedimento em um tanque vazio. Os dados foram analisados no GraphPAD Prism (p < 0,05). Resultados: Foram avaliados 14 atletas de rúgbi (idade 22 ± 2 anos; massa adiposa 27,8 ± 4,4%; VO2MAX 44,1 ± 6,7 ml.kg-1.min-1). Não houve diferença no consumo calórico entre os dias de avaliação (2.893 ± 802 versus 2.915 ± 746 kcal; p = 0,949). Nossos dados indicam redução de 18% na altura do salto após os protocolos de fadiga e crioterapia (33,0 ± 2,8 versus 27,0 ± 2,8 cm; p < 0,05) e incremento de 7,1% após os protocolos de fadiga e repouso (32,5 ± 6,4 versus 34,8 ± 2,1 cm; p < 0,05). Em relação ao pico de torque isométrico, observou-se redução de 3,7% após a crioterapia (295 ± 71 versus 285 ± 68 Nm; p < 0,05) e de 9,6% após o repouso ativo (297 ± 73 versus 268 ± 72 Nm; p < 0,05). Conclusão: A crioterapia de imersão parece afetar a potência de membros inferiores e auxiliar na recuperação da força isométrica quando comparada a recuperação passiva.

Published: October 2020

Introdução: O exercício físico com predominância aeróbia já é uma estratégia conhecida com benefícios para a população idosa, e o uso da restrição de fluxo sanguíneo (RFS) pode ser uma alternativa promissora e eficaz para trazer benefícios maiores com cargas de treino menores, quando comparado ao exercício físico sem a restrição. Objetivos: Revisar a literatura científica a respeito dos efeitos do exercício físico aeróbico com uso da restrição de fluxo sanguíneo em idosos. Métodos: Foram realizadas buscas em três bases de dados (PEDro, Pubmed e Scielo). Como descritores, foi utilizada a combinação dos termos blood flow restriction/KAATSU, endurance/aerobic/walking aged people/elderly. Resultados: Foram incluídos oito artigos na revisão. Três estudos investigaram adaptações musculares, dois estudos investigaram a capacidade aeróbica, três estudos abordaram as respostas cardiovasculares e hemodinâmicas, dois artigos analisaram o estresse oxidativo e respostas hormonais, e um artigo avaliou a função física. Conclusão: O exercício físico aeróbico em idosos com a RFS parece ser superior que o mesmo realizado sem RFS nessa população. Entretanto, o baixo número de estudos encontrado não permite uma conclusão definitiva. Deve-se ressaltar que nenhum estudo mostrou efeitos adversos ou contraindicação para a aplicação da RFS.

Published: October 2020

Diante do elevado consumo e dos diversificados fitoterápicos disponíveis no mercado para uso associado ao exercício, é extremamente importante, sob o ponto de vista nutricional, a comprovação de seu uso para que não ocorra intoxicação. Além disso, a aplicação das plantas medicinais e fitoterápicas associada ao exercício físico apresenta mais um recurso alternativo na melhora da performance e na atenuação de efeitos deletérios causados pelo exercício de alta intensidade. Portanto, sugerimos a adoção de exercícios físicos associados a ingestão de suplementos oriundos de plantas com propriedades medicinais como possibilidades importantes para a manutenção e promoção da saúde, tanto na patologia como no desempenho físico e na atenuação de danos deletérios causados pelo estresse fisiológico associados às doenças crônicas.
