Asymptotic method and transient terms in exact controls
Authors: Destuynder Philippe
Published: February 2023

There is a narrow but hidden link between optimal control theory and the so-called Tikhonov regularization method. In fact, the small coefficient representing the marginal cost of the control can be interpreted as the regularization parameter in a Tikhonov method as far as there exists an exact control. This strategy enables one to adjust the cost function in the optimal control model in order to define the exact control which minimizes a given functional involving both the control but also the state variables during the control process. The goal of this paper is to suggest a method which gives a simple way to characterize and compute the exact control corresponding to the minimum of a given cost functional as said above. It appears as an extension of the phase control which is a finite dimensional version of the HUM control of J.L. Lions but for partial differential equations.

Published: February 2023

This study uses the method of bibliometrics to sort out and analyze the Chinese research on service innovation in the past ten years, and uses Citespace software to conduct basic statistics and keyword analysis on 1 048 literature samples screened in the CNKI database. The research shows that the number of service innovation literature has increased significantly since 2012, and it follows the development law of service innovation connotation, influencing factors, and innovation paths, and maintains a relatively stable number. From the overall situation, the core author group is not large, there is less cooperation between cross-institutional authors, and most of the publishing institutions are more cooperation between universities located in developed areas of the service industry, but the industry-university research is insufficient of publications. The results continue to extend to the fields of Information technology innovation, business model innovation and management innovation.

Published: February 2023

Digital technologies enable apparel manufacturers to unlock solutions for new product development (NPD) challenges faced during the Covid-19 pandemic. A Product Configurator (PC) is the key to Mass Customization (MC) as it can employ to elicit customer requirements, which is essential in successful NPD. Even though some online PCs exist in apparel retail and product development, no one could gather customer requirements and deploy them in the NPD. This paper conceptualizes a Natural Language Processing (NLP)-based PC on eliciting customer requirements based on a systematic literature review and a basic concept of Design Space Analysis. Finally, it is contended that this knowledge can apply in relevant software development to modernize apparel design, development and online retail.
Research on the Integrated Construction Path of Credit Risk Prevention and Control of the National “Xinyi Loan” Platform
Authors: Wu Changjun , Zhou Meixuan
Published: February 2023

In 2019, the National Development and Reform Commission led the issuance of a notice to promote the construction of the national “Xinyi Loan” platform. Since then, the national “Xinyi Loan” platform has entered the vision of SMEs. The difficult and expensive financing of SMEs has always been an important factor causing the low business environment indicators in China. The emergence of the national “Xinyi Loan” platform has well alleviated this problem. However, all the links in the platform are scattered and the information is isolated, and a long-term integrated mechanism has not yet been formed, so it cannot effectively prevent and control risks at present. By constructing a three-party incomplete information dynamic game model of the government, SMEs and financial institutions in the platform, this paper analyzes that all parties should strengthen the pre-loan investigation, in-loan management and post-loan default recovery of the “letter and easy loan” business. To create a good business environment and improve the integration of risk prevention and control, we should further strengthen substantive review, break information islands, promote diversified governance, update data in real time, increase punishment, and improve credit repair.

Authors: Chen Juan , Wang Yuting , Li Mengyao , Li Qing , He Ziyang
Published: February 2023

This study aimed to screen periodical studies in the CNKI database from 2003 to 2019 and draw visualization maps using UCINET, NetDraw, and CiteSpace software to analyze the research hotspots, cohesive subgroups, and network structure characteristics to accurately examine the research status and development trend of food safety behavior in China’s food enterprises. The study revealed that the research on food safety behavior of the food enterprises in China mainly centered on seven parameters, including “traceability management,” “cause of behavior formation,” and “government supervision.” It showed the characteristics of a concentrated focus, diversified behavior subjects, unsystematic external measures, little summary and research, and unclear interest coordination. The study trend was toward the kernelization of actors, the concretization of behavior objects, and the diversification of behavioral governance. Therefore, the emphasis was placed on strengthening the extent of research on internal management and external environment optimization of enterprises, further studying the science and technology of the food industry, and promoting the realization of social co-governance, thus promoting the research.
A Study on Governance Mechanism for Food Safety Risk Behavior of Food Enterprises in Beijing Based on the HFACS Model
Authors: Chen Juan , Li Mengyao , Wang Yuting , Li Qing , He Ziyang
Published: February 2023

Objective: To study the governance mechanism for food safety risk behavior of food enterprises in Beijing to effectively prevent and control the safety risks to consumers. Methods: The HFACS model was used to analyze the surveyed data of foodstuff enterprises. Results: A “one axis and four dimensions” management mechanism of food safety risk behaviors of food enterprises in Beijing was established. Taking these enterprises as the “axis” of the management mechanism, following environments were formed within the enterprises: a “responsibility identification and behavior self-discipline” spiritual environment, a “mechanism co-construction, self-inspection and mutual inspection” institutional environment, a “regular assessment and normal accountability” self-inspection environment, and an “integrity management and food security”. The safe humanistic environment is expected to give full play to the stable role of “government supervision as a leading role,” “Industry Association guidance as the hub,” “consumer supervision as the guide,” “media participation as the support” and “Four Party prevention and control” outside the enterprise to practice the food safety risk management in food industry. Conclusion: Food safety risk behavior is the direct cause of food safety risk. The prevention and control of food safety risk not only requires the creation of an environment to prevent slack behavior among the food enterprises but also needs the interactions between government, industry associations, the media and the consumers to jointly restrict the food safety risk behavior of the food industry as a whole.

Authors: Ji Jing , Hou Zhuo
Published: February 2023

How to measure and evaluate the quality of entrepreneurial activities is not only an important academic issue in the field of entrepreneurship research but also an important practical problem faced by economic policymakers, especially in the context of the global Covid-19 epidemic and the shift of China’s economy from the entrepreneurship high-rate growth stage to the high-quality grow stage. In this paper, we explore the development process of defining and measuring the high-quality entrepreneurial activities, discuss and synthesize the various measurement index for identifying the high-quality entrepreneurship in a complex and uncertain context, concluding that measurement and evaluation of high-quality measurement index experiencing the process of single index to composite index with the consideration of impact of general entrepreneurship policy and specific environment, and also the measurement and evaluation more and more focused on antecedent of entrepreneurial activities which can effectively predict the high quality of entrepreneurial activities from the onset of new firms instead of consequence of entrepreneurial activities. At the end of the article, we propose three viewpoints: First, entrepreneurial quality can be measured using quantitative methods; second, there are limitations for the evaluation of high-quality entrepreneurial quality in practice; third, entrepreneurship indicators should be continuously updated with the accumulation of practice.

Authors: Gong Xiuyun , Liu Ziqi
Published: February 2023

In order to promote the healthy development of gig economy, this paper analyzes the current situation and problems of gig workers from the perspective of sense of gain. A total of 320 questionnaires were collected for analysis through surveys of online ride-hailing drivers, food delivery guys and couriers. The results show that, from the perspective of content, gig workers have gained greater choice space, more employment opportunities and increased income; the current labor regulations and social security policies are lagging behind and the platform management system is unreasonable, so the conditions of gain is not ideal; from the perspective of approach, gig workers have a large workload and limited career upward channels; from the perspective of experience, not many people have a positive attitude towards work, and the main reason for negative emotions is not being respected by the society; in terms of sharing of gain, nearly 70% of gig workers showed willingness to participate in society and sense of social responsibility. Finally, this paper proposes countermeasures to improve the sense of gain of gig workers from the levels of government, platform, gig economy employment groups and society.

A Fast Detection Method of Pseudo-Range Jump
Authors: Yang Ahua , Yang Afeng , Zhang Qiang , Chang Xin
Published: February 2023

In view of the large workload and low efficiency in precisely determining pseudo-range jump time in the two-way ranging time synchronization of the navigation system, a method for rapid determination of pseudo-range jump based on clock drift rate estimation and binary search was proposed. The method took advantage of the property that the drift rate of on-board atomic clock is relatively stable over a long period of time. Firstly, the correct clock drift rate was calculated from the uplink and downlink pseudo-ranges according to the pseudo-range observing equations. Afterwards, the potential time period during which jump occurred was divided equally, producing two sub time periods. Two clock drift rate values and two jump quantities were solved respectively from the pseudo-range data of the above two sub time periods, and the next potential time period was the one with the larger jump quantity. The above procedure was repeated until the final potential time period was short enough. Finally, the precise jump time was determined by difference with the data in the final potential time period. Experimental results illustrate the correctness and effectiveness of the proposed method.

Published: February 2023

Background: Astrocyte reactivity is an early event along the Alzheimer’s disease (AD) continuum. Plasma glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), posited to reflect astrocyte reactivity, is elevated across the AD continuum from preclinical to dementia stages. Monoamine oxidase-B (MAO-B) is also elevated in reactive astrocytes observed using 18F-SMBT-1 PET in AD. Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate the association between the abovementioned astrocyte reactivity biomarkers. Methods: Plasma GFAP and Aβ were measured using the Simoa® platform in participants who underwent brain 18F-SMBT-1 and Aβ–PET imaging, comprising 54 healthy control (13 Aβ–PET+ and 41 Aβ–PET–), 11 mild cognitively impaired (3 Aβ–PET+ and 8 Aβ–PET–) and 6 probable AD (5 Aβ–PET+ and 1 Aβ–PET–) individuals. Linear regressions were used to assess associations of interest. Results: Plasma GFAP was associated with 18F-SMBT-1 signal in brain regions prone to early Aβ deposition in AD, such as the supramarginal gyrus (SG), posterior cingulate (PC), lateral temporal (LT) and lateral occipital cortex (LO). After adjusting for age, sex, APOE ɛ4 genotype, and soluble Aβ (plasma Aβ42/40 ratio), plasma GFAP was associated with 18F-SMBT-1 signal in the SG, PC, LT, LO, and superior parietal cortex (SP). On adjusting for age, sex, APOE ɛ4 genotype and insoluble Aβ (Aβ–PET), plasma GFAP was associated with 18F-SMBT-1 signal in the SG. Conclusion: There is an association between plasma GFAP and regional 18F-SMBT-1 PET, and this association appears to be dependent on brain Aβ load.

Authors: Atef Roaa Zayed , Michalowsky Bernhard , Raedke Anika , Platen Moritz , Mohr Wiebke , Mühlichen Franka , Thyrian Jochen René , Hoffmann Wolfgang
Published: February 2023

Background: Hearing loss is common in people with dementia (PwD) and a modifiable risk factor for cognitive decline. Recent studies revealed that hearing loss could cause social isolation and depression, which is associated with health-related quality of life (HRQoL). However, there is a lack of knowledge about the impact of the utilization of hearing aids on these outcomes. Objective: To assess whether hearing aids use might be positively associated with the progression of cognitive function, depression, and HRQoL among PwD. Methods: We analyzed two-year follow-up data from 258 PwD (≥70 years, living at home). Cognitive decline was measured with Mini-Mental Status Examination (MMSE), depression using Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS), and HRQoL with Quality of Life in Alzheimer’s Disease Scale (QoL-AD). The impact of hearing aid utilization on the progression of outcomes was assessed using multivariate regression models. Results: 123 patients had hearing loss (47.7%), from which n = 54 (43.9%) used hearing aids. Patients with hearing loss were older and had a lower HRQoL than those without hearing loss. Use of hearing aids in patients with hearing loss was associated with a lower increase in depressive symptoms (b = –0.74, CI95 –1.48 ––0.01, p = 0.047) over time as compared to those not using hearing aids. There was no effect on PwD’s cognition, and the association with higher HRQoL was significant after one, but not consistently over two years. Conclusion: Early detection and intervention of presbycusis using hearing aids might improve mental health and HRQoL in dementia.

Authors: Wang Zebin , Zeng Shan , Jing Yan , Mao Wenjuan , Li Hongyan
Published: February 2023

Background: Sarm1 (Sterile alpha and TIR motif-containing 1) is a key protein that regulates neurodegenerative pathologies. Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is highly associated with neurodegenerative lesions and biorhythmic disturbances. Objective: This study aims to decipher the role of Sarm1 in AD-induced circadian rhythm disturbances and AD progression. Methods: Open field and water maze tests were used to assess the cognitive function of mice. Thioflavin-S staining was used to assess amyloid-β (Aβ) plaque deposition in the hippocampus and cortex. Rhythmic waveform of home cage activity and temperature was recorded to evaluate circadian rhythm. Expression of clock molecules including Bmal1 and Per2 in the hippocampus were analyzed using western blot and real-time PCR. Further, HT22 cells with Sam1 knockout were treated with Aβ31–35 treatment to initiate circadian rhythm disorder in the cellular level to assess the changes in Bmal1 and Per2. Results: Our data suggested that Sarm1 deficiency rescued cognitive disorder, decreased Aβ plaque deposition in the hippocampus and cortex, inhibited astrocyte activation, improved circadian rhythm, altered clock molecule expression in the cortex and hippocampus in APP/PS1 mice. Conclusion: Sarm1 attenuates circadian rhythm disturbances and reduces AD progression. These data support the potential use of Sarm1 as a therapeutic target to improve circadian rhythm to impede AD progression.

Since the IPv6 Wireless Personal Area Network (6LoWPAN) can be utilized for information dissemination, this network gains significant attention in recent years. Proxy mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) is standard for mobility control based on network at entire IP wireless applications. But, group-based body area networks cannot respond effectively. A new improved group flexibility system decrease the number of control messages contain router requests as well as advertising messages when compared to the group-based PMIPv6 protocol, in order to minimize delay and signaling costs. The IEEE 802.15.4 standard for low-power personal area networks (6LoWPAN) complies through IPv6-compliant MAC and physical layers. If the default parameters, excessive collisions, packet loss, and great latency occur arbitrarily in high traffic by default MAC parameters while using a great number of 6LoWPAN nodes. The implemented Whale optimization algorithm is based on artificial neural network optimization, genetic algorithm or particle swarm optimization to choose and authenticate MAC parameters. This manuscript proposes a novel intelligent method for choosing optimally configured MAC 6LoWPAN layer set parameters. Results of simulations based on the metrics such as Average delay time (ADT), Average signaling cost, Delivery ratio, Energy consumption, Latency, Network Life time (Nlt), Packet Overhead (PO), Packet loss.

Published: February 2023

The application of 3D technology is rapidly expanding, and stereoscopic imagery is typically used to display 3D data. However, compression, transmission, and other necessary processes may reduce the quality of these images. Stereo image quality assessment (SIQA) has gained more attention to guarantee that customers have a positive watching experience. In order to provide the highest level of experience, it is necessary to develop a quality evaluation mechanism for stereoscopic content that is both dependable and precise. A full-reference method for SIQA is presented in this paper. Compared to previous measures, this method gives users more freedom to use distorted pixel metrics and edge similarity. The binocular summation map is calculated by adding the left and right images for a stereo pair. Improved gradient similarity based distorted pixel measure (SGSDM) is used to calculate the quality of binocular summation. The scored 3D LIVE IQA database is used to evaluate the correlation of the proposed metric with the DMOS subjective score given by the database. The proposed method’s efficacy is demonstrated by experimental comparisons.

Authors: Praveen R. , Pabitha P.
Published: February 2023

The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) is a network of medical devices, hardware infrastructure, and software that allows healthcare information technology to be communicated over the web. The IoMT sensors communicate medical data to server for the quick diagnosis. As, it handles private and confidential information of a user, security is the primary objective. The existing IoT authentication schemes either using two-factor(Username, password) or multi-factor (username, password, biometric) to authenticate a user. Typically the structural characteristics-based biometric trait like Face, Iris, Palm print or finger print is used as a additional factor. There are chances that these biometrics can be fabricated. Thus, these structural biometrics based authentication schemes are fail to provide privacy, security, authenticity, and integrity. The biodynamic-based bioacoustics signals are gained attention in the era of human-computer interactions to authenticate a user as it is a unique feature to each user. So, we use a frequency domain based bio-acoustics as a biometric input. Thus, this work propose a Secure Lightweight Bioacoustics based User Authentication Scheme using fuzzy embedder for the Internet of Medical Things applications. Also, the IoT sensors tends to join and leave the network dynamically, the proposed scheme adopts chinese remainder technique for generate a group secret key to protect the network from the attacks of former sensor nodes. The proposed scheme’s security is validated using the formal verification tool AVISPA(Automated Validation of Internet Security Protocols and Applications). The system’s performance is measured by comparing the proposed scheme to existing systems in terms of security features, computation and communication costs. It demonstrates that the proposed system outperforms existing systems.

Neoliberalism or Else: The Discursive Foundations of Neoliberal Populism in the Czech Republic
Authors: Prushankin Keith
Published: February 2023

This article examines the linkage of markets and democracy in the post-1989 Czech transition as a neoliberal populist discourse that delegitimized alternatives to the market as a return to authoritarianism. Using Laclau’s concept of equivalential linkages, I analyze Václav Klaus’ texts surrounding the voucher privatization program to determine how he formulated this linkage and communicated it to the public. Framing markets as natural, essential, and fundamentally Czech, Klaus constructed the people as a virtuous community of market individuals while othering those who opposed markets as communist holdouts and elitists. Klaus further legitimized marketization through identification with international neoliberal projects and thinkers. Through his moralized and dichotomized discourse, Klaus communicated to the public that there could be no freedom without markets, nor markets without freedom: a circular formulation that continues to influence Central and Eastern European political economy.
Tipologi Pandangan Ulama tentang Munasabah Al-Qur’an
Authors: Fatih M
Published: February 2023

The issue of munasabah al-Qur'an provokes debate among scholars. Among them there are those who accept their existence loosely, some are moderate, and some are strict. If these differences of opinion are summarized, they will produce a kind of map or typology of the views of scholars regarding the munasabah of the Qur'an. In general, the views of the scholars regarding munasabah can be mapped into three typologies, first, the type of mutasahhil, namely scholars who apply easy limits and conditions in determining the munasabah of the Qur'an. Second, the mutasaddid type, namely the ulama who set very strict limits and conditions for the munasabah of the Qur'an. According to them, the Qur'an was revealed in stages over a span of about twenty-three years, in a variety of events and occurrences. The issues and themes discussed were different, and addressed to heterogeneous communities and interlocutors. Thus, munāsabah can only be accepted if the connection occurs in the same matter where the beginning is related to the ending. Meanwhile, if it occurs because of different events, then it is included in a forced case. Third, the type of mutawassit, namely scholars who are moderate in viewing the munasabah of the Qur'an, are not too strict and not too loose. This type is the middle between the first type and the second type. Not forcing munasabah in parts that are considered vague as the second type, and also not denying the passages that are clearly related in terms of the first type.

An analysis of the norms that regulate the process of formation and implementation of local budgets in the conditions of martial law introduced in Ukraine on February 24, 2022, in particular, the norms are analyzed of the Budget Code of Ukraine, laws of Ukraine «On local self-government in Ukraine», «On the formation of military administrations», «On the legal regime of martial law», «On amendments to the Tax Code of Ukraine and other legislative acts of Ukraine regarding the peculiarities of taxation and reporting during the period actions of martial law» etc. The powers of the executive committees of the relevant local councils, local state administrations, military-civilian administrations and military administrations in the budgetary sphere have been studied. It was established that the Law of Ukraine «On Amendments to the Tax Code of Ukraine and other legislative acts of Ukraine regarding the peculiarities of taxation and reporting during the period of martial law» dated March 3, 2022 No. 2118-IX amended the Budget Code of Ukraine, according to which in during the period of martial law, the functions of local self-government bodies, their executive bodies, local state administrations, military-civilian administrations in terms of budgetary powers are performed by military administrations. Resolution No. 252 of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine dated March 11, 2022 «Some issues of formation and execution of local budgets during martial law» extended the budgetary powers of local self-government bodies, their executive bodies, local state administrations, military-civilian administrations, and in the case of the formation of military administrations, such powers have been transferred to them. In general, since the introduction of martial law in Ukraine, the mechanism of formation and implementation of local budgets has been simplified. Since the norms regulating budgetary relations in the conditions of martial law are contained in Chapter VI «Final and Transitional Provisions» of the Budget Code of Ukraine, it is proposed to supplement the Code with a separate chapter that would comprehensively regulate budgetary relations in such a period.

Мета. Розробити алгоритм застосування фізичної терапії спортсменів після артроскопічних операцій з приводу поєднаних пошкоджень меніска і різних стадій змін хрящів колінного суглоба спрямованого на відновлення якості життя та для підвищення ефективності лікувально-відновного процесу. Матеріал. У ході дослідження використано теоретичний аналіз й узагальнення даних науково-методичної літератури, Інтернет-джерел, зокрема, протоколів, рекомендацій іноземних та вітчизняних клінік з питань присвячених розробці алгоритму фізичної терапії спортсменів після артроскопічних операцій з приводу поєднаних пошкоджень меніска і різних стадій змін хрящів колінного суглоба. Результати. Аналіз сучасної науково-методичної літератури з питань характеристики застосування засобів, методів фізичної терапії в відновленні спортсменів після артроскопічних операцій з пошкоджень меніска на різних стадіях змін хрящів колінного суглоба, свідчить про її важливу роль для більш якісного відновлення та повернення до високого рівня якості життя, як інтегрального критерію ефективності проведених заходів. Вивчено загальні підходи та світові стандарти фізіотерапевтичної допомоги особам даного профілю, а також складових фізіотерапевтичного втручання з позиції доказової медицини. Сучасні підходи до відновної терапії таких осіб розуміють під собою застосування алгоритмізованого фізіотерапевтичного втручання, заснованого на базі доказової медицини та МКФ. Опираючись на отримані дані ми розробили алгоритм втручання засобами фізичної терапії для підвищення ефективності відновного процесу у спортсменів даного профілю. Спеціально розроблений алгоритм включає наступні кроки: первинна оцінка функціонального статусу спортсмена та визначення його проблем та потреб; планування фізіотерапевтичного втручання; реалізація втручання; оцінка ефективності терапевтичного втручання. Висновки. Удосконалення хірургічної техніки виконання, зміна типового профілю пацієнтів після артроскопічних операцій з приводу поєднаних пошкоджень меніска і різних стадій змін хрящів колінного суглоба вимагають адаптації заходів та методів фізіотерапевтичного втручання для максимізації функціональних результатів у повсякденному житті, що і сприяють спрямуванню подальших наукових досліджень.

Мета. Оцінка світового досвіду з реабілітації рухових розладів у пацієнтів з нестабільністю плечового суглоба та розробка найбільш перспективних завдань в фізичній терапії. Матеріал. Для виконання поставленої мети було проведено аналіз літературних джерел у сучасних базах даних: Google Scholar, PubMed, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials. Глибина пошуку 10 років (з січня 2013 р. до листопада 2022 р.). Результати. Вивих плечового суглоба є розповсюдженою патологією, а рецидивуюча нестабільність плечового суглобу є важким ускладненням вивиху, що характеризується частковою втратою працездатності і суттєвим зниженням якості життя. Існує великий спектр діагностичних методів, які дозволяють визначити характер нестабільності. Проте питання саме функціональної діагностики залишається відкритим. Зважаючи на наявність поодиноких досліджень, стосовно визначення товщини м’язів за допомогою УЗД як ознаку функції м’язів, пропонується використати дану методику для розробки диференційованої програми фізичної реабілітації. Не дивлячись на значні досягнення в хірургічному лікуванні, частота рецидивів продовжує бути високою. Відсутні високоякісні дослідження, що вивчають вплив реабілітації на функціональні і довготривалі результати. Хоча роль післяопераційної реабілітації має вирішальне значення для досягнення нормального обсягу рухів і адекватного повернення до активності, дуже часто програми реабілітації погано описані або взагалі не описані в протоколах лікування нестабільності плечового суглоба. Також, звертають на себе увагу, значні розбіжності в реабілітаційних програмах, строках їх початку та тривалості виконання вправ. Висновки. Враховуючи широке розповсюдження розглянутої патології, її значний вплив на якість життя та працездатності пацієнтів, розробка та впровадження в практику охорони здоров’я дієвої ефективної програми реабілітації має важливе значення.
ПОШИРЕНІСТЬ СИМПТОМІВ НЕФУНКЦІОНАЛЬНОГО ПЕРЕНАПРУЖЕННЯ У ВИСОКОКВАЛІФІКОВАНИХ ЛЕГКОАТЛЕТІВ

Метою статті було вивчення поширеності симптомів нефункціонального перенапруження у легкоатлетів в залежності від середньої інтенсивності тренувальних занять, середньотижневої тривалості тренувань, типу виконуваного тренувального навантаження, перенесеної SARS-CoV-2 респі- раторної інфекції протягом 6 місяців, що передували обстеженню, наявності гострого травматизму чи інших гострих захворювань протягом останнього місяця, наявності симптомів вегетативної дисфункції (за Вейном). Матеріал. Успішне тренування має уникати поєднання надмірного перевантаження та неадекватного відновлення. Спортсмени можуть відчувати короткочасне зниження продуктивності без серйозних психологічних або тривалих негативних симптомів. Коли спортсмени недостатньо дотримуються балансу між тренуванням і відновленням, може виникнути нефункціональне перенавантаження. Відрізнити його від синдрому перетренованості дуже важко і залежить від клінічного результату та діагнозу виключення. Спортсмен часто демонструватиме однакові клінічні, гормональні та інші ознаки та симптоми. Результати. Ключовим словом для визнання синдрому перетренованості може бути «тривала дезадаптація» не лише спортсмена, але й кількох біологічних, нейрохімічних, і механізми гормональної регуляції. Вважається, що симптоми перетренованості, такі як втома, зниження працездатності та розлади настрою, є більш серйозними, ніж симптоми нефункціонального перенавантаження. Однак немає жодних наукових доказів, які б ні підтверджували, ні спростовували це припущення. Один підхід до розуміння етіології перетренованості передбачає виключення органічних захворювань або інфекцій і таких факторів, як дієтичне обмеження калорійності і недостатнє споживання вуглеводів і/або білка, дефіцит заліза, дефіцит магнію, алергії та інших разом з ідентифікацією ініціювання подій або тригерів. Основним показником перетренованості є зниження продуктивності, характерної для спорту, і дуже важливо підкреслити необхідність відрізняти перетренованість та інших потенційних причин тимчасової недостатньої продуктивності, таких як анемія, гостра інфекція, пошкодження м’язів і недостатня кількість вуглеводів. Висновки. Фізичні вимоги до інтенсивного навчання не є єдиними елементами розвитку перетренованості. Здається, що складний набір психологічних факторів є важливим у його розвитку, включаючи надмірні очікування від тренера або членів сім’ї, змагальний стрес, структуру особистості, соціальне оточення, стосунки з родиною та друзями, монотонність у тренуваннях, особисті або емоційні проблеми, а також вимоги, пов’язані з навчанням або роботою.
