Authors: Abhimanyu Ahluwalia
Published: October 2024

The integration of the Internet of Things (IoT) into electrical systems is transforming traditional power grids into intelligent, data-driven networks, capable of real-time monitoring, control, and optimization. This transformation, often referred to as the development of “smart grids,” presents opportunities for improving energy efficiency, enhancing reliability, and ensuring sustainability. IoT facilitates dynamic demand response, predictive maintenance, and seamless integration of renewable energy sources, positioning it as a key enabler of the energy transition. This paper provides a comprehensive overview of the role of IoT in electrical systems, with an emphasis on smart grids, predictive maintenance, and energy management in smart buildings. It explores IoT’s architecture, benefits, and challenges, including cybersecurity concerns and the lack of industry-wide standardization. The study also incorporates real-world data and graphical representations to illustrate the impact of IoT in optimizing power systems. Additionally, this paper discusses future prospects for IoT in electrical systems and suggests solutions to overcome existing challenges.

Published: October 2024

Formal tax compliance through the submission of Annual Income Tax Returns needs to be improved to support the achievement of tax revenue targets. Even though the government provides a convenient way of reporting annual income tax returns using e-filling, many taxpayers still do not report tax returns due to a lack of understanding of how to utilize this tool. The Tax Volunteer Program, which is a collaboration between DJP and universities, is a solution to assist taxpayers in reporting tax returns. The community service team's mentoring process was carried out at KPP Pratama Pondok Aren using e-filling. As a result, many taxpayers have obtained Electronic Proof of Receipt as proof that formal obligations have been fulfilled while reducing service queues at KPP Pratama Pondok Aren as the end of the Annual Income Tax Return reporting period approaches.
The impact of a preschool communication program and comprehensive family support on serious youth offending: New findings from the Pathways to Prevention Project
Authors: Allen Jacqueline , Homel Ross , Vasco Daniela , Freiberg Kate
Published: October 2024

In this report, we investigate the effects of the Pathways to Prevention Project on the onset of youth offending. We find persuasive evidence for the impact of an enriched preschool program, the communication program, in reducing by more than 50 percent the number of young people becoming involved in court-adjudicated youth crime by age 17. We find equally strong evidence that comprehensive family support increased the efficacy and sense of empowerment of parents receiving family support. No children offended in the communication program if their parents also received family support, but family support on its own did not reduce youth crime. The rate of youth offending between 2008 and 2016 in the Pathways region was at least 20 percent lower than in other Queensland regions at the same low socio-economic level, consistent with (but not proving) the hypothesis that the Pathways Project reduced youth crime at the aggregate community level.
Medial Hamstring Snapping Knee Syndrome: Case Report of an Unusual Presentation Due to Osteochondroma
Authors: Almutairi Khawla Mansour , Almutairi Reem Mohammed , Almogbil Ismail Hamad
Published: October 2024

Medial hamstring snapping knee syndrome is an infrequent clinical entity, with osteochondroma being an exceptionally rare etiology. This report details a case of a 21-year-old female presenting with a 4-month history of persistent left knee pain, snapping, and clicking, which developed following a fall. Despite initial conservative management, the symptoms persisted. Advanced imaging, including MRI, revealed a small osteochondroma on the medial aspect of the proximal tibia, which was the underlying cause of the snapping. A targeted physiotherapy regimen emphasizing quadriceps and hamstring strengthening was subsequently employed, leading to effective symptom management. This case highlights the necessity of a meticulous clinical evaluation and the role of advanced imaging in diagnosing rare etiologies of snapping knee syndrome. Furthermore, it demonstrates the efficacy of focused physiotherapy in managing such conditions.

Authors: Syahril Romi , Priatna P. , Hutomo Azhar , Wulandari Sri
Published: October 2024

This study aims to explore the impact of technology on family communication patterns using the Family Communication Patterns Theory approach. Technology, especially digital devices such as mobile phones and social media, has changed the way families communicate, both positively and negatively. This study uses a qualitative method with a case study approach in five families in an urban area to understand how technology affects interpersonal relationships between family members. The results show that families with a high conversation orientation tend to use technology to strengthen emotional connectedness, while families with a high conformity orientation are more cautious in using technology, because they are worried about its impact on traditional values and parental control. Technology is also found to play a role in resolving family conflicts, but in some cases, it causes technoference or disruption in face-to-face communication. In conclusion, technology provides opportunities and challenges in maintaining family relationships, and its use needs to be regulated wisely to avoid negative impacts. This study suggests that families should be more aware of the limitations of technology use and prioritize direct interaction to maintain the quality of interpersonal communication.
SPECIAL ISSUE: Lessons Learned: A Pilot Study on the Feasibility of Using Biofeedback Monitoring in a Remote Setting with Special Forces Veterans in Saipan
Authors: Bethune Scroggs Lauren , Saul Amelia , McKinnon Jennifer , Russoniello Carmen
Published: October 2024

In 2019, our team traveled internationally to test the effectiveness of a physiological assessment and heart rate variability (HRV) biofeedback program for a group of highly accomplished Special Forces Wounded Warriors participating in an international rehabilitative adaptive event. The intent was to offer biofeedback in a remote setting for managing and measuring stress while performing highly stressful tasks. The evaluation took place 8,000 miles from the mainland United States on the island of Saipan, the site of a tremendous battle during World War II. To our knowledge, a biofeedback system of this type has never been employed in a remote setting with this population. The transport of biofeedback equipment came with unique challenges as did providing an internet-based biofeedback project in a remote setting. Although HRV and health-related data were collected by study staff, the analysis of the data is not included in this manuscript. The purpose of this article is to provide information on key factors to consider when providing biofeedback in a remote setting, including data collection and storage in a limited internet service area; safe transport of equipment; and tools for successful biofeedback training in an isolated, international setting. We hope the information in this article will guide practitioners who plan to do similar types of biofeedback studies and interventions in the future.
SPECIAL ISSUE: The ACT of Biofeedback—Training for Psychological Flexibility
Authors: Ehrenreich Yossi
Published: October 2024

This paper examines the innovative integration of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) principles with biofeedback methodologies, presenting a novel approach to psychophysiological therapy. This paper uses Kevin Polk’s structured ACT matrix approach to elucidate how biofeedback can augment ACT processes, including acceptance, cognitive defusion, and present-moment awareness. The paper explicates practical techniques such as the “Hook Words Exercise” and “Verbal Aikido,” demonstrating their application within a biofeedback-enhanced therapeutic context. This integrative approach represents a significant advancement in psychophysiological interventions, offering a comprehensive framework for deepening interoceptive awareness and fostering psychological flexibility and value-aligned living while bridging the gap between cognitive processes and physiological responses. By exemplifying assimilative integration in psychotherapy, this approach offers a promising avenue for advancing both clinical practice and research in psychophysiological interventions, potentially improving therapeutic outcomes and client engagement.
Ingeniørstudenters opplevelse av gruppeavtale: Er det lurt å skrive en avtale?
Authors: Aakre I. G. , Mørkve M. S.
Published: October 2024

Samarbeidsferdigheter er viktig i arbeidslivet, og gruppearbeid er en utbredt læringsaktivitet i høyere utdanning. Ulike forventninger blant gruppe-medlemmene kan skape problemer for gruppearbeidet, og en gruppeavtale kan være et verktøy for å oppnå en felles forståelse i gruppa og unngå konflikter. Evalueringsskjema (n= 498) viser at ingeniørstudenter har positive erfaringer med å skrive en gruppeavtale i Ingeniørfaglig innføringsemne første semester, men studentene bruker gruppeavtalen i ulik grad. I studentintervjuer (n= 3) blir gruppeavtalen sin rolle for å unngå eller løse eventuelle konflikter dratt frem, og det kommer frem at gruppene utarbeider avtalen på ulike måter. Evalueringsskjemaet viser at et betydelig flertall av studentene sier seg enig i påstandene «Det var lurt å skrive en avtale» og «Jeg vil ta initiativ til å lage en slik avtale i fremtiden». Studentene som oppgir å ha brukt gruppeavtalen aktivt er mer positive til både gruppeavtalen, i hvilken grad medstudentene bidro i gruppearbeidet, og prosjektet for øvrig.
Matthew’s Mission and Supersessionism
Authors: Baxter Wayne
Published: October 2024

Who was Matthew trying to reach with his particular version of the message of Jesus of Nazareth? When examining the question of Matthew’s social setting, scholars tend to focus either on the evangelist’s socioreligious orientation or that of his original audience. An overlooked entry point into this monumental debate is Matthew’s mission field: those people outside of the Jesus movement but living in relationship to Matthew and his communities, whom they were seeking to reach with their brand of the gospel of the kingdom. Although Matthew wrote his Gospel to address Christ-believing communities, he did so within the wider social context of instructing his people in their mission to “make disciples of all the nations.” The evangelist, then, would have crafted his story of Jesus to fit with his mission. The socioreligious orientation of the group best suited to hear and receive his message would represent his mission field. This study seeks to demonstrate that the evangelist’s attitude toward Jews and gentiles in his Gospel reveals that Matthew sought to address his fellow Jews, and in a way that reveals a non-supersessionist perspective.
Stand-Up Rerouting, or Cultural Transformation in Ali Wong’s Bawdy Comic Critique
Authors: Dalebout Michael
Published: October 2024

This article identifies and elaborates a form of comic persuasion called “stand-up rerouting,” showing how comedian Ali Wong’s stand-up in Netflix’s 2016 Baby Cobra transforms familiar conceptual norms, especially the conflicting binaries she faces as a woman and comedian. Drawing on the philosophical insights of Mikhail Bakhtin, Donna Haraway, and Gilbert Simondon as well as the feminist thought of Hélène Cixous and Trinh T. Minh-ha, the article traces Wong’s bawdy humor as it reroutes audience attention from a conceptual to a sensuous understanding of life. In embracing the tensions caused by normative expectations, and exploiting familiar cultural limits on identity in novel ways, Wong materializes alternative, nonbinary ways to reconcile tensions in her identities, transforming who and how she—and we—can be.

Published: October 2024

Diaphragmatic hernias following severe thoracoabdominal injuries are infrequent clinical occurrences, and right-sided post-traumatic hernias are particularly rare due to the protective barrier provided by the liver. The overall incidence of diaphragmatic rupture following trauma is approximately 1.3%, with only 20% of these cases identified on the right side. This report aims to present the case of a patient diagnosed with a substantial intrathoracic liver hernia 4 years after a traumatic incident. Surgical intervention successfully corrected the diaphragmatic defect, and the patient’s postoperative course was uneventful. A 2-month follow-up revealed no signs of recurrence, underscoring the effectiveness of the surgical approach in managing this unusual presentation of diaphragmatic hernia.

Salud bucodental y el desempeño deportivo en atletas
Authors: Chiliquinga Velez Steven , Santos Zambrano Thainah Bruna , Mendieta Cedeño Marcos Antonio
Published: October 2024

La salud bucodental es esencial para el bienestar general y el rendimiento deportivo, pero a menudo es descuidada por los atletas. Esta revisión tiene como objetivo identificar la relación entre el estado de salud bucodental y el rendimiento deportivo de los atletas. Se realizó una búsqueda exhaustiva de literatura publicada entre 2019 y 2023 en bases de datos como Scopus, PubMed, Web of Science y SciELO, utilizando descriptores clave relacionados con el rendimiento atlético y la salud bucal. Los resultados revelan que los traumatismos bucodentales más frecuentes en deportistas incluyen fracturas dentales, luxaciones, avulsiones y lesiones de encía, mucosa y hueso de soporte. Las afecciones bucodentales pueden impactar negativamente el rendimiento atlético a través de diversos mecanismos: la inflamación crónica puede reducir la capacidad aeróbica, las infecciones orales pueden comprometer el sistema inmunológico, las maloclusiones y trastornos temporomandibulares pueden alterar la biomecánica corporal, y el dolor orofacial puede interferir con la nutrición y el sueño. Además, las infecciones orales crónicas pueden aumentar el estrés oxidativo sistémico, acelerando la fatiga muscular. Se concluye que la salud bucodental juega un papel crucial en el rendimiento deportivo, siendo un aspecto frecuentemente subestimado. La odontología deportiva es esencial para la prevención y manejo de estas condiciones, mejorando no solo la salud bucal de los atletas, sino también su rendimiento general.

Published: October 2024

Background: Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are prevalent outpatient conditions affecting up to 50% of individuals, with diagnostic errors common in clinical settings. The traditional reliance on clinical criteria alone yields a diagnostic error rate of about 33%, necessitating improved diagnostic methods. Aim: This mini-review evaluates the role of artificial intelligence (AI) and smart diagnostic tools in enhancing UTI diagnosis, particularly within vulnerable populations. Methods: A comprehensive literature review was conducted, assessing 782 articles, of which 14 met the inclusion criteria for AI applications in UTI diagnosis. These studies were categorized based on their focus: uncomplicated UTIs, complicated UTIs, and specific demographic groups. Results: The review revealed that 12 studies employed machine learning techniques while 2 utilized deep learning. The most frequently used models included artificial neural networks (ANNs) and extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost). Key variables influencing predictive models encompassed demographic data, anamnesis, and comorbidities. Notably, models for diagnosing uncomplicated UTIs achieved accuracy rates of up to 98.3%, while approaches for complicated UTIs demonstrated area under the curve (AUC) values ranging from 0.71 to 0.904. AI models were particularly effective in stratifying high-risk subgroups, including pregnant women and children, with models achieving AUCs of 0.82 and 0.83 for specific populations.

Authors: Villareal Silvana , Contreras Lisbeth , Castillo David
Published: October 2024

El estudio de la epistemología permite conocer cómo se produce el conocimiento desde una perspectiva comparada así como desde un enfoque crítico. Además, proporciona los fundamentos sobre los cuales operan las teorías y la investigación. Los profesionales de la salud se suelen inclinar hacia procedimientos analíticos buscando conexiones causales y observables, pero la concepción de la naturaleza del conocimiento es mucho más amplia. Es por ello, que se presenta este escrito dirigido especialmente a los investigadores y profesionales del área de las ciencias de la salud con la finalidad de sembrar la inquietud por leer y conocer más sobre un tema que es de importancia y utilidad a la hora de plantearse un trabajo de investigación o simplemente realizar una lectura. Por lo que los autores se basaron en revisar distintas respuestas dadas a la definición de epistemología, destacando de ellas el proceso desde el punto de vista filosófico, metodológico y reflexivo que posibiliten comprender los saberes de las ciencias de la salud.

BACKGROUND

Thus far, genetic analysis of patients clinically diagnosed with glycogen storage diseases (GSDs) in Thailand has not been reported.

AIM

To evaluate the clinical and biochemical profiles, molecular analysis and long-term outcomes of Thai children diagnosed with hepatic GSD.

METHODS

Children aged < 18 years diagnosed with hepatic GSD and followed up at King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital were recruited. Whole-exome sequencing (WES) was performed to identify the causative gene variants. Medical records were assessed.

RESULTS

All eight children with histopathologically confirmed diagnosis were classified by WES into subtypes Ia (n = 1), III (n = 3), VI (n = 3), and IX (n = 1). A total number of 10 variants were identified including G6PC (n = 1), AGL (n = 4), PYGL (n = 5), and PHKA2 (n = 1). AGL had two novel variants. The clinical manifestations were hepatomegaly (n = 8), doll-like facies (n = 3), wasting (n = 2), and stunting (n = 5). All patients showed hypoglycemia, transaminitis, and dyslipidemia. The mainstay of treatment was cornstarch supplementation and high-protein and low-lactose-fructose diet. After a median follow-up time of 9.59 years, height turned to normal for age in 3/5 patients and none had malnutrition. Liver enzymes, blood sugar, and lipid profiles improved in all.

CONCLUSION

Hepatomegaly, transaminitis, and hypoglycemia are the hallmarks of GSD confirmed by liver histopathology. Molecular analysis can confirm the diagnosis or classify the subtype that might benefit from personalized treatment, prognosis, and long-term care.

Chinese culinary culture is not only an integral part of traditional Chinese culture but also increasingly gains recognition on the international stage. Chinese specialty pastries, as a dazzling gem in Chinese cuisine, reflect the profound cultural heritage of China. Appropriate translation of their names can facilitate the conveyance of cultural connotations and enhance the exchange between different cultures. From the perspective of high and low context cultures, this paper analyzes the characteristics of Chinese specialty pastries names and explores their translation methods. The aim is to further standardize the translation of Chinese specialty pastry names, promote the international dissemination of Chinese pastry culture, and allow the world to better appreciate the unique charm of Chinese characteristic pastry culture.
Травматические повреждения поджелудочной железы
Authors: Emsadmin Emsadmin , K K
Published: October 2024

Поджелудочная железа (ПЖ) считается хорошо защищенной, и ее повреждения встречаются лишь у 2–5% всех больных с механической травмой и у 10% пострадавших с травмой живота. Однако частота сочетанного повреждения соседних органов при тупой травме ПЖ колеблется от 45 до 85%, а при ранениях может достигать почти 100%. Травмы ПЖ отличаются высокими показателями осложнений (30–40%) и летальности (9–34%), что не в последнюю очередь обусловлено неблагоприятными последствиями сочетанных повреждений соседних органов живота и забрюшинного пространства. На этом фоне всё более важное значение в диагностике и лечении повреждений ПЖ приобретает междисциплинарный подход хирургов, эндоскопистов, рентгенологов и реаниматологов.

Published: October 2024

Skin cancer detection through deep learning is an evolving field, where convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have proven to be very effective in feature extraction. However, this approach still faces some limitations due to the use of data augmentation, It is the generation of artificial images. Which significantly increase the computational load without generate new clinically meaningful data and may introduce shadowed features. Therefore, this study aims to propose a new approach that use CNNs to extract important features from skin cancer medical images using the HAM 10000 dataset. The proposed approach involves training two different CNN architectures, extracting features from convolutional layers, and then use PCA to make the retrieved features less dimensional. In order to categorize skin cancer into seven different categories of skin lesions, the remaining features are then merged and fed into a classifier that uses neural networks. In comparison to earlier studies that employed CNN architectures on the same dataset, the results demonstrated that this method preserves significant information while improving computational efficiency and achieving superior classification performance. The suggested approach achieved 95.66% accuracy for multi-class classification.
