Published: June 2022

В работе рассмотрена возможность использования результатов изучения ценностносмысловой сферы горожан, а также автоматизированного анализа данных из их социальных сетей для ценностно-ориентированного управления развитием инфраструктуры города. Рассмотрены теоретические и экспериментальные основания ценностно-ориентированного управления городом с учетом современных информационных и эко-психологических разработок. Были описаны наиболее значимые объекты инфраструктуры, которых не хватает жителям города, описана структура социокультурных потребностей жителей города. Были выявлены достоверно значимые взаимосвязи ценностно-смысловых установок жителей город, их потребностей в развитии инфраструктуры и компонентов их профилей в социальной сети для обоснования ценностно-ориентированного прогнозирования потребностей в развитии инфраструктуры. Также выявлены достоверно значимые взаимосвязи ценностно-смысловых установок жителей город и их потребности в участии в инициативных проектах, активностью в городских онлайн сообществах, для поиска активистов готовых вступать в диалог с управляющими организациями и включаться в проекты соучастного проектирования.

Authors: Богдановская Ирина Марковна , Углова Анна Борисовна , Королева Наталья Николаевна , Петрова Юлия Викторовна
Published: June 2022

В статье рассматриваются ценностные ориентации и личностный адаптационный потенциал подростков с проблемным использованием интернета. Результаты сравнительного исследования показали сходство ценностных профилей в группах с нормативным и проблемным использованием интернета: вершину иерархии занимают индивидуальные ценности экзистенциального плана свобода, жизненная мудрость, познание. Выявлено снижение значимости ряда ценностей по мере нарастания признаков интернет-аддикции таких как здоровье, активная деятельная и продуктивная жизнь одновременно с повышением значимости ценностей удовольствия и материального обеспечения. В группе подростков с признаками интернет аддикции ведущие ценности имеют более конкретный прагматический и гедонистический характер: интересная работа, материально обеспеченная жизнь, удовольствия. В латентной структуре терминальных ценностей всех групп подростков выделяются две размерности, одна из которых является инвариантной («индивидуальные – социальные ценности»). Вариативными способами структурирования ценностей являются: «ориентация на творческое саморазвитие – ориентация на ценности интимно-личностного общения» (в группах подростков с нормативным и проблемным использованием интернета) и «гедонизм – альтруизм» ( в группе подростков с признаками интернет аддикции). По мере нарастания признаков интернет-аддикции все компоненты личностного адаптационного потенциала снижаются. Результаты корреляционного анализа показали, что ориентация на такие ценности как активная деятельная жизнь, любовь, продуктивная и счастливая семейная жизнь снижает проявления аддиктивного использования интернета и выраженность проблем, связанных с интернет-аддикцией. Ценностные ориентации на познание, наличие друзей и общественное признание усиливают ключевые симптомы интернет-аддикции, так как эти ценности реализуются современными подростками в виртуальной среде.

Authors: Прокудин Дмитрий Евгеньевич , Лисанюк Елена Николаевна
Published: June 2022

Методы делиберативной аргументации имеют широкое распространение для решения прикладных задач в разных областях, где речь идет об избрании линии поведения в определенной ситуации или о принятии решений. Этим методам уделяется большое внимание в современном образовании для формирования соответствующих компетенций. В последние три десятилетия развитие информационно-коммуникационных технологий привело к разработке программного обеспечения, предназначенного для визуализации и моделирования делиберативной интеллектуальной деятельности по решению различного рода практических задач и для использования в образовательных целях. В настоящем исследовании на основе анализа существующего программного обеспечения и выявленных концептуальных оснований определяются и обосновываются группы критериев, которые необходимо учитывать при разработке программного обеспечения, предназначенного для моделирования и репрезентации делиберативной аргументации. Отдельное внимание уделяется возможности реализации в таком программном обеспечении функций оценки аргументов и поиска решений, для чего предлагается использовать онтологии в качестве необходимого элемента такого ПО. Разработанные критерии могут быть использованы при разработке классификации соответствующего программного обеспечения.

Authors: Прокудин Дмитрий Евгеньевич , Кононова Ольга Витальевна
Published: June 2022

Развитие современного информационного общества, характеризующегося возрастающими процессами информатизации и цифровизации, связанными с проникновением информационно-коммуникационных технологий в различные сферы человеческой деятельности, ставит актуальной задачей формирование информационной культуры и цифровых компетенций, связанных с развитием цифровой экономики. К таким компетенциям относятся поиск, экспликация и анализ контекстного знания, представленного в цифровой форме, с использованием информационно-коммуникационных технологий. Проблема результативного поиска, экспликации и анализа контекстного знания связана с постоянно возрастающим объемом доступной информации, ее неформализованностью и слабой структурированностью, высокой скоростью обновляемости научных знаний, многозначностью используемой терминологической базы, переносом терминов из одной предметной области в другую без необходимой интерпретации и адаптации. Существующие инструменты поиска, экспликации и анализа контекстного знания мало востребованы из-за отсутствия содержательной информации как о самих инструментах, так и о методах и алгоритмах их применения в науке и на практике, а также ограниченностью предоставляемых аналитическим ПО наборов сервисов. Учебно-методический комплекс «Технологии извлечения и интеллектуального анализа данных в научных исследованиях», направлен на формирование исследовательских и аналитических цифровых компетенций магистрантов. Результаты освоения образовательного продукта позволят магистрантам осознанно применять в научно-исследовательской практике комплексный подход к поиску и анализу контекстного знания, использовать на базе этого подхода аналитическое ПО и среды со встроенными сервисами экспликации, кластеризации и статистической обработки научных текстов.

Authors: Рассказова Альбина Николаевна , Зыкова Анастасия Сергеевна
Published: June 2022

Мы, как преподаватели, наделены правом и доступом к ежедневному сбору и обработке данные обучающихся. При этом наряду с освоением новых цифровых технологий сбора и обработки данных важно соблюдать их конфиденциальность и обязанность по защите. Несмотря на то, что защита конфиденциальности данных учащихся является частью основной ответственности за заботу о них, не во всех учебных заведениях имеются письменные договоренности и/или руководства по защите данных, а также какие-либо положения в отношении сбора и использования частной информации.
Таким образом, цель данной работы состоит в предложении рекомендаций по разработке политики конфиденциальности непосредственно в учебных заведениях. Для этого анализируется роль преподавателя в защите данных обучающихся с точки зрения осознанного управления информацией и обсуждается ряд мер по защите конфиденциальности данных учащихся, не нарушая образовательных целей и стиля работы преподавателя. Предметом анализа являются учащиеся системы общего образования, студенты средних специальных и высших учебных заведений.

Authors: Корытникова Надежда Владимировна
Published: June 2022

В статье рассмотрены инновационные возможности электронных сервисов для регистрации и прохождения ВНО . Технология регистрации и получения сертификата о сдаче экзамена описываются на конкретных примерах и оцениваются с точки зрения перспектив их применения в процессе итогового тестирования. В статье перечислены принципы электронного управления и отмечены особенности электронных сервисов в образовательной сфере. В ходе исследования были выявлены функциональность работы официального сайта УЦОКО и мобильного приложения, определены их технические преимущества и недостатки, оценено удобство применения со стороны пользователей, концептуализирована удовлетворенность электронными сервисами.
Результаты информационной кампании показали достаточный объем официальных разъяснений процедур ВНО, что говорит о готовности к публичному обсуждению предлагаемых нововведений. В то же время отмечается потребность в независимой оценке со стороны экспертного сообщества для объективного анализа социальных инноваций, сопровождающих итоговое тестирование. Рассмотрение технологии регистрации показало, что автоматизация процедуры оформления документов на порядок увеличила количество шагов для получения государственной услуги, а на организационном этапе половина выпускников несамостоятельно пользовалась предлагаемыми электронными сервисами. В целом, государственные инициативы по оцениванию качества образования опираются на мировые тренды по формированию электронного управления, но в то же время существуют инфраструктурные проблемы и некоторые организационные трудности ВНО.
Petrogenesis of the Paleoproterozoic Näränkävaara layered intrusion, northern Finland, Part II: U-Pb ID-TIMS age and Sm-Nd isotope systematics

Several mafic-ultramafic layered intrusions were emplaced in the NE Fennoscandian Shield during a magmatic episode at 2.44 Ga. The Paleoproterozoic Näränkävaara layered intrusion, northern Finland, is one of the largest ultramafic bodies in the Fennoscandian Shield, with a surface area of 25 km x 5 km and a magmatic stratigraphic thickness of ~3 km. The intrusion comprises a 1.3 km-thick peridotitic–dioritic layered series (2436 ± 5 Ma) with two peridotitic reversals, and a 1.5–2 km thick basal dunite series mainly composed of olivine adcumulates (dated here). The intrusion has been studied since the 1960’s, but several questions regarding its structure and petrogenesis remain. The basal dunite shows several lithological features typical of komatiitic rather than intrusive olivine cumulates; namely, >1 km-thick “extreme” olivine adcumulates, some showing textures with bimodal grain sizes, oscillating variations in Mg# with stratigraphic height, and poikilitic chromite. With Archean greenstone belts nearby, it was previously hypothesized that the basal dunite series could represent an Archean komatiitic wall rock to the Paleoproterozoic layered series. However, our new U-Pb ID-TIMS baddeleyite age of 2441.7 ± 0.9 Ma for the basal dunite series shows that the basal dunite and layered series of the Näränkävaara intrusion are co-genetic. New whole-rock Sm-Nd isotope data from key stratigraphic units (initial εNd at 2440 Ma of -3.5 to -1.7) indicate that the intrusion was constructed from repeated emplacement of LREE-enriched high-MgO basaltic magmas that were mantle-derived and contaminated by crust, similarly to other Fennoscandian 2.44 Ga intrusions. The parental magmas show similar compositions regardless of stratigraphic position, suggesting that most wall rock contamination and homogenization had occurred before emplacement, with in situ contamination being a relatively minor process. The open-system features of the basal dunite suggest that it may have formed (at least partly) as a feeder channel cumulate, possibly related to the ~100 km long Koillismaa-Näränkävaara Layered Igneous Complex. The Näränkävaara parental magmas show variably depleted metal ratios and could have potential for orthomagmatic mineral deposits, given the availability of S-rich wall rocks.
An Analysis of the Korean Society and Culture Textbooks Used for Social Integration Programs
Authors:   The Korea Association of Yeolin Education, Seol Kyujoo
Published: June 2022

The Social Integration Programs run by the Ministry of Justice play an important role in coping with growing immigration in Korea. All immigrants joining the Program use two kinds of textbooks: (1) Korean Language and Culture and (2) Understanding Korean Society. In December 2020, the newly revised textbooks were published; it is necessary to examine if they are assisting immigrants’ anticipatory socialization into Korean society.
This study aims to analyze the two newly revised textbooks used for the social integration programs run by the Ministry of Justice and to suggest implications on how to further improve them. For this purpose, the content on Korean society and culture in the revised textbooks were analyzed. These are the major findings. First, Korean Language and Culture mostly deals with Korean society and culture while rarely touching on Korean politics, laws, history and geography. Second, both textbooks partly reflect the comparative view of culture. Third, the holistic view of culture can be found only in the second book (Understanding Korean Society), but not very often. Fourth, Understanding Korean Society covers more current issues and statistics than Korean Language and Culture while Korean Language and Culture deals with more useful items for daily lives and traditional Korean culture than the other. Fifth, considerable relevance when it comes to topics has been found between the two textbooks.
In order to develop further improved textbooks on Korean society and culture for future immigrants, the developers of the textbooks should select more current and useful materials on Korean society and culture with holistic and comparative views of culture. In addition, it is necessary for the developers of each book to work in closer cooperation with one another.
The Structural Relationship between Defending Behavior and Defending Behavior Related Variables in the Micro System Based on Meta-Path Analysis
Authors:   The Korea Association of Yeolin Education, Kwon Jiwoong , Park Jonghyo
Published: June 2022

In this study, from the point of view of the ecological systems model, meta path analysis was performed on the correlations among the peer relationships, anti-bullying, school culture, and social-emotional competence in the micro-system. Through this, we suspected the significance of direct and indirect effects between the factors in the path towards defending behaviors, by anti-bullying school culture and peer relationships, environmental variables, mediating social emotional competence, and personal variables. To do this, the meta-path analysis was conducted on domestic academic journals (33 articles), master's and doctoral dissertations, and candidate journals (29 articles) from January 2007 to June 2021 (total 62 articles). In the meta path analysis, direct effects were found in all paths among all factors of the peer relationships, anti-bullying school culture, social-emotional competence, and defending behaviors. In addition, mediating effects were found in social emotional competence factors between peer relationships and defending behaviors, and between the anti-bullying school culture and defending behaviors respectively. As a result of this, it is implied that students who develop a high level of social-emotional competence based on their peer relationships and anti-bullying school culture tend to show a higher frequency of defending behaviors in school violence environments.
USP18 contributes to the proliferation and migration of ovarian cancer cells by regulating the AKT/mTOR signaling pathway
Authors: Liu Meiqin , Gao Shile , Xu Xingjun , Zhang Lijie , Xu Bin , Lu Donghui
Published: June 2022

Ubiquitin-specific peptidase (USP)18 is elevated in tumor tissues and is associated with tumor malignancy. USP18 functions as an oncogene in different cancers. However, the role of USP18 in ovarian cancer was poorly understood. TCGA database showed that USP18 was elevated in ovarian cancer tissues. Additionally, USP18 mRNA and protein expression was also up-regulated in tumor tissues. The functional assays were then designed via siRNA-mediated knockdown of USP18. The results showed that knockdown of USP18 reduced cell viability and ovarian cancer proliferation. Furthermore, cell apoptosis was promoted by USP18 silencing, and interference of USP18 suppressed cell migration and invasion. The expression of phosphorylated AKT (p-AKT) and p-mTOR protein was decreased in ovarian cancer cells by USP18 knockdown. Inhibition of AKT attenuated the decrease in cell apoptosis induced by USP18 overexpression and increased cell viability and migration. In conclusion, USP18 promoted the proliferation and migration of ovarian cancer cells by activating AKT/mTOR signaling.
A basic epidemiological study on the association between air quality and COVID-19 lethality in India and United States
Authors: Gallage Tharindu Polwatta
Published: June 2022

Introduction: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a global pandemic level, respiratory system targeted virus infection. The impacts of smoking habits, genetics, and chronic medical conditions such as lung cancers on COVID patients has been assessed extensively so far. However the role of the ambient air quality as a vital factor of life, in COVID 19 mortality risk is not yet properly studies. The association and correlations between ambient air quality and mortality risk has been assessed in this study at a preliminary scale using basic statistical analysis in India and United States of America (USA); two countries with highest COVID prevalence in the world.

Materials and methods: Pearson's Chi-squared test for independence was employed to assess the associations and CramerV statistics was used to evaluate the strength of associations between mortality and air quality. Pearson's product-moment correlation and Spearman's rank correlation were employed to assess the correlation between ambient air quality and deaths.

Results: In the study, the risk of mortality appeared to be significantly dependent on the level of ambient air quality in both countries. However the strength of association was significantly low in both cases. The correlation between ambient air quality and mortalities in both countries also appeared to be significantly low. However the correlation in USA appeared to be higher than in India.

Conclusion: Based on above results it can be concluded that the risk of mortality is dependent on ambient air quality, but air quality might not be the only dominant definitive factor for mortality. However further research might be required at pathological level to theorize the above relationship.

The rapid spread and high mortality rate of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) have recently received worldwide attention. Understanding the pathologic features and behavior of this new virus can help control its spread. The present study aimed to compare SARS-CoV-2 with other similar viruses.
This study is a systematic review of current evidence conducted in September 2020. A search was carried out utilizing the keywords in the online databases, including Google Scholar, PubMed, Scopus, Science Direct, and Web of Science. The original peer-reviewed papers written in English that met the eligibility criteria were included in the final report.
In this study, we compared SARS-CoV-2 with similar viruses such as influenza, Zika, Ebola, HIV, SARS-COV, and Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronaviruses (MERS-COV) in the features such as envelope structure, risk factors, duration of the disease, common symptoms, and treatments. Moreover, Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) has many similarities with the other viruses explained in the present study. However, there are still controversies about the virus’s behavior.
Although there are similarities between the abovementioned viruses, the scientific community should also pay special attention to distinct features of SARS-CoV-2, particularly the high probability of transmission in the human population, which causes substantial morbidity and mortality worldwide. Future studies are needed further to explore the biological and epidemiological behavior of this virus.

Published: June 2022

Background: Sleep disorder is one of the main complaints of patients with cancer that could affect their quality of life and clinical outcomes. We aimed to investigate major contributors of poor quality sleep in patients with cancer that underwent treatment.
Methods: We performed a cross-sectional study on 250 patients with cancer referred to the oncology department of Shohaday-e-Haftome-Tir Hospital, Tehran, Iran. Sleep quality as the main outcome of the study was evaluated using the Persian version of the self-report PSQI questionnaire. Global PSQI score >5 was categorized as the poor quality sleep. We also collected demographic and clinical data and physical performance status based on ECOG scale which grading is from 0:Fully active to 12:Death. Collecting the data regarding each patient was performed through medical records and face-to-face interviews.
Results: Mean age (±SD) of the study participants was 52.8 (±11.9) and 177 (70.8%) patients were female. The overall proportion of poor quality sleep was 66.8%. Sleep disorders were observed more frequent in patients with partial (OR=2.0, 95% CI=1.0, 3.8) and complete (OR=7.4, 95% CI=1.5, 36.4) physical dysfunction (p-value<0.05). There was also a strong association between a history of sleep disorder and cancer-related insomnia (OR=4.4, 95% CI=1.9, 10.1). No association was found between age, marital status, metastasis status, and cancer location with poor quality sleep.
Conclusion: Poor sleep quality had a high prevalence among our patients. Patients with physical functional impairment and those with psychiatric disorders (mood disorder) and pre-existing insomnia were the main groups of patients with a higher likelihood of cancer-related insomnia.

Authors: Bastanhagh Ehsan , Erfanian Reza
Published: June 2022

Background: Sleep has a well-recognized impact on human immunity. COVID-19 infectivity and severity depend on the immune system of the host. Medical interns are at risk for the development of this disease and have poor sleep quality. In this study, the association between sleep quality and COVID-19 infection development and severity in medical students was evaluated.
Methods: In the current study, 50 medical students were enrolled. Demographic and subjective sleep parameters were documented and compared with COVID-19 infection history and development of dyspnea. Chronotype was assessed by the reduced Morningness-Eveningness Questionnaire (rMEQ).
Results: The total sleep time in infected medical intern were 68.14 minutes shorter than non-infected one (p=0.048). The wake time was one hour and twelve minutes earlier in the group which developed dyspnea (p=0.020). Age, gender, rMEQ score and Body Mass Index (BMI) are significantly associated with neither COVID-19 infection history nor dyspnea.
Conclusion: Short sleep time and early morning awakening are bound up with the prevalence and severity of COVID-19 in medical interns.

Results: The main theme of “diabetes control in the shadow of the COVID-19” and three categories emerged from data analysis.
Conclusion: Lack of taking the child to the doctor during the COVID-19 the pandemic impacted the management of diabetes in their child. Therefore, having a virtual communication channel between the family of diabetic children and the health care professionals could be helpful for managing the children’s disease.
The Role of Mean Platelet Volume in the Diagnosis of Neonatal Sepsis
Authors: Sagheb Setareh , Eshaghi Hamid , Lamsehchi Ameneh
Published: June 2022

Background: Neonatal sepsis is still one of the main issues with unspecific signs and symptoms with high mortality and morbidity rates to assess Mean Platelet Volume (MPV) as a laboratory value for predicting neonatal sepsis.
Methods: In this cross-sectional study, we recruited 72 term and late preterm newborns diagnosed with sepsis who were admitted into the neonatal ward of the children’s medical center of Tehran University of Medical Sciences (TUMS) from March 2016 to May 2017 case group. The control group consisted of 50 healthy term infants (mean age: 5.46±3.59 days). The blood test was performed at the time of admission. Hematologic markers including MPV, White Blood Cell (WBC), and C-Reactive Protein (CRP) were compared between two groups.
Results: There were statistically significant differences between WBC (p=0.019), CRP (Mean Difference: 9.38, 95% CI: 4.19 to 14.58, p=0.001) and MPV (Mean Difference: 0.56, 95% CI: 0.25 to 0.86, p<0.001) in case group in comparison with the control group. The area under the curve was 68.71 for MPV. Diagnostic cut-off levels with sensitivity (80.56%) and specificity (52%) were found to be MPV> 9.2 fL. There was no significant association between MPV and disease status (case group: 9.80 ±0.88 vs. control group: 9.24 ±0.75).
Conclusion: Despite higher MPV during neonatal sepsis, the MPV values’ sensitivity and specificity were inadequate to be used as diagnostic tests.  CRP is still a better marker for early suspicion of neonatal sepsis. MPV may be used in combination with CRP for identifying neonatal sepsis.

Published: June 2022

Background: Taking care of a patient with COVID-19 can have a significant psychological burden. This study aimed at determining the levels of stress, anxiety and depression symptoms among family caregivers of Covid-19 patients.
Methods:  This cross-sectional study was conducted on 236 main caregivers of coronavirus patients in Zanjan, Iran in 2020. The data measurement tool was the DASS-21 electronic questionnaire which was designed using the Porsline platform and was sent to the participants via SMS and WhatsApp messages. Descriptive statistics and Pearson’s R, Student’s T test and analysis of variance were performed to analyze the data in SPSS version 25.Results: The mean age of participants was 34.72±9.52 years. Of the participants, 57.21, 70.77 and 55.09% had symptoms of depression, anxiety and stress, respectively. Females experienced higher levels of stress than males (p=0.049). Additionally, the mean score of depression sub-scale was significantly different between categories of employment status (p=0.029), as self-employed workers had significantly higher depression sub-scale scores (10.97±10.85) compared to the other two groups. No significant associations were found between age and depression, anxiety, and stress of the participants. Moreover, the mean scores of depressions, anxiety, and stress sub-scales were not significantly different between categories of marital status and levels of education.
Conclusion: The majority of family caregivers experienced depression, anxiety, and stress symptoms. This significant prevalence of psychological burden among these individuals underscores the need for supportive measures by policy makers and communities to prevent further severe consequences and help them reduce these symptoms.
Obstetrics and Gynecology Residents Self-perceived Competency Regarding Female Pelvic Medicine and Surgery: An Internet-based Cross-sectional Survey
Authors: Ghanbari Zinat , Mostaan Fatemeh , Saleh Narges , Raznahan Maedeh , Adabi Khadijeh
Published: June 2022

Background: The aim of our study was to assess factors associated with residents’ perceived competency regarding female pelvic medicine and reconstruction surgery (FPMRS).
Methods: We conducted an Internet-based cross-sectional survey. Obstetrics and gynecology residents’ self-perceived competence in clinical skills for management of pelvic floor disorders were questioned. Competency in different aspects was analyzed concerning the availability of fellowship-trained professor, rotation, and fellowship training program.
Results: 1168 residents of four levels of residency participated in this study. 760 (65.06 %) of residents were not trained by a fellowship-trained attendant. Of 409 (35.01%) responders who were trained by board-certified fellowship, 334 had FPMRS rotation in their residency program. Senior residents were significantly more confident than residents in the first and second years. 695 (59.50 %) of residents reported participating in the pelvic floor surgeries; however, only 15.3 % were served as primary surgeons. Where pelvic floor education had been provided by a fellowship-trained attendant, more perceived competency was evident in all fields of clinical skills except performance as primary surgeon and management of emergency cases. Among residents trained by board-certified FPMRS attendants, there were no significant differences regarding FPMRS rotation or fellowship training programs. 88.69 % of residents declared that a comprehensive course in the field of FPMRS is needed in the residency curriculum.
Conclusion: This study demonstrates that being trained by board-certified FPMRS attendants has significant effect on residents’ self-perceived competency. Residency education was not compromised by fellowship training program.

According to the Fourier hypothesis, the peaks of the amplitude-frequency characteristics corresponding to different points of the box-like shell are to lie on the same vertical straight line. An analysis of the results of frequency tests revealed significant deviations from the Fourier hypothesis. It is shown that in resonance (of the same tone) different points of the box shell oscillate with different frequencies. Frequency shifts are about 2 Hz.

There is a strong belief that employment is a crucial avenue for the empowerment of young women, through income, greater autonomy, and bargaining power within the family. However, experiences of workplace sexual harassment undermine these potential gains. This qualitative study among agro-processing factory workers and domestic workers in Uganda and Bangladesh demonstrates that sexual harassment is widespread in both formal and informal workplaces, while domestic workers are particularly vulnerable to its most severe forms.
Kieślowski’s Film World Seen through Documentary: Focusing on Hospital, Seven Women of Different Ages and Dworzec
Authors:   East European and Balkan Institute, Kim Hee-Jung
Published: June 2022

Polish film director Krzysztof Kieślowski has directed twenty-one documentaries. His films, which have consistently offered insights into “human” and ontological concerns, began with documentaries. Kieślowski employed his unique ethical sensibility in his move from pure documentary to feature film, and even in his feature films portrays an essential, poignant and detailed portrait of what it means to be “human”. In his early works, Kieślowski explored aspects of ordinary people's lives against the background of the political situation in Poland. In his feature films, he paints a portrait of an essential “human” with whom people can universally sympathize; these are not just stories of Polish people, but of Europe. In this study, the director’s film world is analyzed focusing on three of Kieślowski’s documentary films: Hospital (Szpital), Seven Women of Different Ages (Siedem kobiet w różnym wieku), and Central Station (Dworzec). In particular, by examining the techniques of Kieślowski’s three later documentary films, this study investigates the trajectory of his film world just prior to his shift into feature film. Hospital follows orthopedic surgeons for thirty-two hours through their point-of-view, revealing how they retained their humanity even in the harshest conditions. In Seven Women of Different Ages, the lives of seven ballerinas of different ages are sequentially shown during the course of one week. In Central Station, a surveillance camera, the story of the man behind it, and the ordinary people he watches are captured with the director’s unique, sharp perspective. This study also looks into why Kieślowski felt the need to shift from the documentary genre to feature films, concluding that the director’s will to portray what it means to be “human” could be more freely represented in feature films over documentaries.
Interrelation of Body Language and Psychology: An Analyzing of Charade on the For Some Inexplicable Reason
Authors:   East European and Balkan Institute, Han Kyeng-Min
Published: June 2022

Humans communicate not only through words, but also through gestures, facial expressions, and postures, which convey people’s emotions and psychological states. The film  directed by Gábor Reisz, is set in 2012 in Hungary, when the unemployment rate reached 11.30%. Many young individuals who have newly entered society and live independently have been jobless. As a consequence, content that is difficult to impress the audience was chosen for this film, which exposes real-life difficulties without filtering them. To overcome these shortcomings, the case unfolds with black comedy while revealing scenes identical to reality like a documentary. In addition, the movement of the camera focuses on the body language rather than the speech-language of the characters, expressing the inner strength of human beings and the will to live. By conveying the character’s psychology through direct and clear body language, the audience also turns their gaze away from the main character’s problems and faces them. The change in the main character’s inner psychology and attitude toward life clearly reveals the will to exist through charade, choosing to stay alive even in the face of pain or crisis. The change in actions, attitudes and gestures of the main character, who lives helplessly while falling here and there, and runs vigorously in search of potential inner strength and vitality in a fleeting moment, clearly reveals his heart through shredding. By analyzing the charade of this film, I was able to understand the interrelation of the body language and psychology.

Stunting is one of the nutritional problems in the world. Stunting is predicted to increase by 15% worldwide due to the pandemic. Specific nutritional interventions are one of the stunting prevention interventions carried out by the health sector that have been shown to reduce one-third of the prevalence of stunting in the world. The purpose of this paper is to get an overview of the implementation of specific nutritional intervention programs in stunting prevention in Indonesia. The article used in this literature review was published in 2012-2021. The databases used are PubMed and Google Scholar. Eleven selected articles for analysis. One article explained that the prevalence of stunting differs by region and the incidence is higher in eastern Indonesia. Two articles describe the specific nutritional intervention programs in Indonesia Six articles discuss the implementation of each program in specific nutritional interventions. Programs that have been running well are additional feeding, pregnant women, Initiation of Early Breastfeeding, breastfeeding, vitamin A and zinc administration. Poor implementation is exclusive breastfeeding and immunization. Two articles discussing the evaluation of the implementation of specific nutritional interventions in Indonesia are already good, the obstacles found are the lack of even spread of health workers. Researchers suggest that an evaluation is needed for the implementation of specific nutritional intervention programs.

Published: June 2022

Background: The end-stage renal disease affects almost every aspect of the patients' and caregivers' lives. Several studies have been conducted to explore the experiences of family caregivers in caring for hemodialysis patients. However, a survey of the burden of family caregivers has yet to be conducted in Indonesia, a country with strong family bonds among family members. Purpose: This study aimed to identify the burden among family caregivers of hemodialysis patients. Methods: This study was a cross-sectional study conducted in May 2021 on 60 family caregivers of hemodialysis patients. selected using a purposive sampling technique. Semi structured questionnaires were used to measure socio-demographic. The Caregiver Reaction Assessment-Indonesian Version (CRA-ID) was used to measure their burden. Data were analyzed using descriptive analyzes and bivariate analyzes. Results: Women represented 65% (n=39) of participants, married participants were 83.3% (n=50), and were 63.3% employed (n=38). Most of them have minimum family income (51.7%). The least common association of caregivers was the spouses of the patients (n=32, 53.3%). The analysis showed that the mean overall burden score with CRA-ID was 2.88±0.69  (ranging 1.00 to 5.00). The highest burden was the lack of family support dimension of 3.47±0.42. Caregiver burden among caregivers of patients on hemodialysis showed that the variables related to family burden were age, an education level, and family income (p-value<0,05). Conclusion: Caregivers of hemodialysis patients carry a significant burden. Interventions to provide appropriate social support to patients and increase caregivers' psychological conditions are critical.

The soft robot has many degrees of freedom, strong environmental adaptability and good human-computer interaction ability. As the end-effector of the soft robot, the soft gripper can grasp objects of different shapes without destructivity. Based on the theoretical analysis of the soft robot, the kinematics model of the flexible gripper and the theoretical model of the bending deformation of the air cavity were established. Accordingly, the relationship between the bending angle of the soft gripper and the air pressure was determined. Through the application of finite element software, the bending degree of pneumatic network multi-cavity soft gripper was simulated by finite element software, and the influence of structural parameters of soft actuator on bending deformation was determined. In addition, with the 3D technology conducting the printing of soft gripper fixtures and molds, the injection molding the actuator and the human-computer interaction interface controlling the movement of the gripper, the adaptability of the soft gripper in grasping object was verified. The result shows that the software gripper possesses good flexibility and can better grasp objects of different shapes.
