MODIFICATION OF SYLLABI AT THE FACULTY OF ECONOMICS, TECHNICAL UNIVERSITY OF LIBEREC DURING ONLINE TEACHING CAUSED BY THE PANDEMIC – QUESTIONNAIRE SURVEY RESULTS
Authors: Hastrdlová Šárka
Published: January 2022

The article summarizes a qualitative and quantitative analysis of the results of a questionnaire survey that took place at the Faculty of Economics, Technical University of Liberec in May 2021. The exceptional situation that occurred during the coronavirus pandemic forced all academic personnel to transfer their teaching to online platforms. Obviously, such a shift caused changes not only in the nature of teaching and syllabi but also in communication with students as well as the relations between students and academic workers. The main goal of this research was to find out how—or whether—the teachers modified their syllabi, or course plans, and adapted them to teaching in the online environment, and to what extent. The questionnaire further examined the teachers’ views on online teaching, its negative and positive aspects, and the tools that the academic workers have used most or least in online teaching. The research results primarily map the current situation at the Faculty of Economics and bring a reflection concerning other possibilities that online teaching offers and, of course, concerning also its pitfalls.
ANTROPOLOGIE SOCIÁLNÍCH VZTAHŮ V SOUDOBÉM VIETNAMU
Authors: Schwarz Michal
Published: January 2022

This review article presents a publication on ethnographic, linguistic, and social relations in the families that remained in Vietnam after the wars. Some family members still face post-war pressures and war trauma. Others face the social imperatives of caring for their elderly or sick relatives. Limitations in personal life are the main concept of the book reviewed which focuses on the role of the personal sacrifice. This is complemented by the social relations of love and care, the cult of ancestors and the demand for filial devotion. In Vietnamese families, these rules are fixed and are reflected in the linguistic means of communication (e.g., mother—child), which the author analyses from the linguistic point of view and documents it with the use of photographs of communication situations. The review points to alternative interpretations and cultural specifics of living traditions of magical thinking and polygamy.

Authors: Olisa Babafemi Sunday , Ojo Philip Olusegun , Khalid Ishiak Othman , Agboola Adebayo , Towolawi Oluwole , Dahiru Rabiu
Published: January 2022

Greater attention is always being given to quantity of seeds produced rather than the inherent quality when issues related to seed requirements are discussed. However, seed production should not be limited to production of crops with high yielding potential, but also of high quality
seeds with good economic potential that can give good crop establishment and yields in a wide range of production environments. This requires good knowledge of seed production and the establishment of an economically functional seed system with serviceable strategies. This underscores the
importance of seed quality assurance systems strengthened with seed law enforcement strategies to assure production of good quality seeds of preferred varieties. This paper discusses those strategies put in place to ensure a successful production of quality seeds in the Nigerian seed industry
and how the setups operate to achieve this objective.

Most common cardiovascular diseases of the elderly – A review article
Authors: Gadó K. , Szabo A. , Markovics D. , Virág A.
Published: January 2022

Number of people over 65 years is continuously increasing and represents an ever growing proportion of population even in Hungary. Medical treatment of the elderly implies a massive burden for the healthcare system. Special knowledge is required to provide an appropriate medical care for the elderly. During the ageing process, several changes accumulate in the body and several chronic diseases develop. Function of parenchymal organs is impaired, healing process is slower, clinical manifestations of diseases are not so prominent, the diagnosis is often difficult to establish. Moreover, treatment possibilities also differ, because pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of drugs are different from that of young patients. Communication with older patients is also cumbersome, participation of a relative or caregiver at consultation can be useful. Cardiovascular diseases remain the leading cause of death of adults over the age of 65. Among these diseases congestive heart failure, coronary artery diseases, hypertension, atrial fibrillation have the greatest significance.

Authors:   Kyiv Regional Children's Hospital No. 2, Bila Tserkva, Ukraine, Pohorila Ye.Ye.
Published: January 2022

The clinical course, features of diagnostic examinations and difficulties in verification of the new nosology of multisystem inflammatory syndrome associated with SARS-CoV-2 in 15-year-old girls are described. The girl was taken to the Kyiv Regional Children's Hospital No. 2 with complaints of fever, intoxication syndrome, general weakness, dizziness, vertigo, lack of urine during the day. The child was examined by a consilium of doctors, examined in the laboratory and instrumentally, after a carefully collected epidemiological history revealed possible contact with a patient with coronavirus infection at the place of study and identified a probable case of multisystem inflammatory syndrome associated with SARS-CoV-2. According to the results of our own observations during the pandemic, this nosology was found in patients who relapsed into coronavirus infection in clinical or subclinical form and for the period of hospitalization had a clinical symptom complex of Kawasaki with similar symptoms. This disease is new today, has a variety of clinical manifestations and pathological features that are a problem for clinicians. After all, at present there are no unified protocols for the diagnosis and treatment of MIS-C (multisystem inflammatory syndrome) and each doctor relies on their own experience and previously described cases. This case of multisystem inflammatory syndrome will help practicing clinicians in the early stages to diagnose the disease and provide qualified care to patients. The research was carried out in accordance with the principles of the Helsinki declaration. The study protocol was approved by the Local ethics committee of all participating institution. The informed consent of the patient was obtained for conducting the studies. No conflict of interest was declared by the author. Key words: multisystem used for setting fire syndrome, 15-year-old girl, kawasaky-like symptoms, SARS-CoV-2, intravenous immunoprotein, acetophene, glucocorticosteroids.

Temporary Hearing Threshold Shift in California Sea Lions (Zalophus californianus) Due to One-Sixth-Octave Noise Bands Centered at 8 and 16 kHz: Effect of Duty Cycle and Testing the Equal-Energy Hypothesis
Authors: Kastelein Ronald A. , Helder-Hoek Lean , Defillet Linde N. , Kuiphof Femke , Huijser Léonie A. E. , Terhune John M.
Published: January 2022

To determine the frequency-dependent susceptibility of California sea lions (Zalophus californianus) to noise-induced temporary hearing threshold shift (TTS), two subjects were exposed for 60 min to two fatiguing sounds: continuous one-sixth-octave noise bands (NBs) centered at 8 kHz (at sound exposure levels [SELs] of 166 to 190 dB re 1 µPa2s) and at 16 kHz (at SELs of 183 to 207 dB re 1 µPa2s). Using a psychoacoustic technique, TTSs were quantified at 8, 11.3, 16, 22.4, and 32 kHz (at the center frequency of each NB, half an octave higher, and one octave higher). For both NBs, higher SELs resulted in greater TTSs. In the SEL ranges that were tested, the largest TTSs occurred when the hearing test frequency was half an octave higher than the frequency of the fatiguing sound. When their hearing was tested at the same time after the fatiguing sounds stopped, initial TTSs and hearing recovery patterns were similar in both sea lions. The effect of fatiguing sound duty cycle on TTS was investigated with the 8 kHz NB, using 1,600 ms signals at a mean sound pressure level (SPL) of 154 dB re 1 µPa. Duty cycle reduction from 100 to 90% resulted in a large decrease in TTS; no TTS was observed at duty cycles ≤ 30%. The equal-energy hypothesis was tested with the 8 kHz NB and found to hold true: five combinations of SPL and exposure duration all resulting in a 182 dB SEL produced similar initial TTSs in both sea lions. These findings will contribute to the protection of otariid hearing from anthropogenic noise by facilitating the development of evidence-based underwater sound weighting functions. Our results also show that the introduction of short inter-pulse intervals to underwater sounds aids in the protection of otariid hearing by allowing recovery to take place.
White-Beaked Dolphins (Lagenorhynchus albirostris) Cooperating with Humans and Showing Altruism Toward Harbor Porpoises (Phocoena phocoena)
Authors: Kastelein Ronald A. , Jennings Nancy , Huijser Léonie A. E.
Published: January 2022

In an odontocete rehabilitation center in the Netherlands, repeated observations were made over several days of interspecific cooperative behavior initiated by three white-beaked dolphins (Lagenorhynchus albirostris)—that is, mutually beneficial cooperation with humans and altruism toward three harbor porpoises (Phocoena phocoena). In the first observation (mutually beneficial cooperation), a white-beaked dolphin cooperated on her own initiative with humans to herd a harbor porpoise toward a veterinary treatment/feeding area in the pool. In the second observation (altruism), two recently recovered white-beaked dolphins assisted newly arrived harbor porpoises with swimming. These first recorded examples of interspecific mutually beneficial cooperation and altruism initiated by white-beaked dolphins will help to elucidate the motivation behind such behavior and the potential fitness benefits resulting from it.

Advanteges of Blended Learning in Foreign Languages Teaching
Authors: Baklashkina Olesya , Maksimova Natalia , Luts Svetlana
Published: January 2022

The article is devoted to the opportunities of blended learning, which is used in teaching foreign languages to students of non-linguistic specialties at Baikal State University. Since recently, the education system has been undergoing significant changes in terms of educational process organization. This is primarily due to global digitalization processes, as well as the forced move to blended or mixed forms of work during the pandemic. The authors of the article suggest using the term blended learning, since such terms as full-time learning, part-time learning do not reflect the whole essence of work in teaching a foreign language. The relevance of using a blended learning is determined by the taught discipline itself - a foreign language, since it is impossible to form the necessary skills and competencies only within the framework of classroom hours. A foreign language instructor has always used a mixed type of work, which has grown into a modified form today. The article analyzes some theoretical issues and provides an overview of blended learning practice. It is also describes the advantages of using this form in the educational process in general and in teaching foreign languages, in particular. In conclusion, the authors point out the necessity of using this form of work in teaching foreign languages.

Transformation of the Relationship Between Grocery Retail Chains and Their Suppliers in the New Economic Context
Authors: Fedotov Andrey , Burakov Valery
Published: January 2022

The present-day economic situation affected by the pandemic are causing certain changes in the relationships between grocery retailers and producers. The article studies transformation of these relationships, including agreements and conflicts, in the context of a new trading formats and the emergence of a new grocery market infrastructure. The authors state that the key problem of relationships between the two parties is unreasonable extra requirements that retail chains commonly expect suppliers to meet. The hypothesis based on the analysis of the up-to-date sources of information assumes that the conflicts are usually caused by pricing, logistics and marketing barriers set by retail chains in the process of signing deals. Basing on the results of a statistic and factor analysis and on the empirical quantity and quality data, the authors study the opportunity of applying a new strategy of interaction between grocery retailers and producers.

Information processing using the Kalman filter in Matlab Simulink
Authors:   South Ural State University, Chelyabinsk, Russian Federation, Telezhkin Vladimir F. , Saidov Bekhruz B. ,   Tajik Technical University named after M.S. Osimi, Dushanbe
Published: January 2022

In this paper, we investigate the problem of improving data quality using the Kalman filter in Matlab Simulink. Recently, this filter has become one of the most common algorithms for filtering and processing data in the implementation of control systems (including automated control systems) and the creation of software systems for digital filtering from noise and interference, for example, speech signals. It is also widely used in many fields of science and technology. Due to its simplicity and efficiency, it can be found in GPS receivers, in devices for processing sensor readings for various purposes, etc. It is known that one of the important tasks that should be solved in systems for processing sensor readings is the ability to detect and filter noise. Sensor noise leads to unstable measurement data. This, of course, ultimately leads to a decrease in the accuracy and performance of the control device. One of the methods that can be used to solve the problem of optimal filtering is the development of cybernetic algorithms based on the Kalman and Wiener filters. The filtering process can be carried out in two forms, namely: hardware and software algorithms. Hardware filtering can be built electronically. However, it is less efficient as it requires additional circuitry in the system. To overcome this obstacle, you can use filtering in the form of programming algorithms in a single method. In addition to the fact that it does not require electronic hardware circuitry, the filtering performed is even more accurate because it uses a computational process. The paper analyzes the results of applying the Kalman filter to eliminate errors when measuring the coordinates of the tracked target, to obtain a "smoothed" trajectory and shows the results of the filter development process when processing an electrocardiogram. The development of the Kalman filter algorithm is based on the procedure of recursive assessment of the measured state of the research object.

В статье представлены результаты апробации русскоязычной версии Шкалы самовосприятия трудоспособности (Self-Percei­v­ed Employability Scale). Русскоязычная вер­сия методики была апробирована на выборке 715 человек. Результаты апробации подтвердили факторную структуру, валидность и надежность психодиагностического инструмента. Факторная структура методики была подтверждена при помощи конфирматорного факторного анализа (x2 = 77.577, df = 29, CMIN/DF 2.675, p = 0.000, GFI = 0.944, AGF = 0.893, CFI = 0.819, RMSEA = 0.057 [90% CI 0.042–0.072], PCLOSE = 0.216, HOELTER = 285). 3-факторная структура методики включает шка­лы, надежность-согласованность которых следующая: Самооценка работником себя как специалиста и должности в организации (a = 0.642), Самооценка работником себя на внешнем рынке труда (a = 0.595), Воспринимаемая ценность профессии на внешнем рынке труда (a = 0.761). Коэф­фи­циент корреляции при анализе тест-ретестовой надежности составил от r = 0.56 до r = 0.72, p < 0.001. Конвергентная и дискриминантная валидность методики подтверждена результатами корреляционного анализа, обнаружившего выраженную связь всех субшкал методики самовосприятия трудоспособности с чувством успешности в профессиональной деятельности (от r = 0.442 до r = 0.288, p < 0.001 для субшкалы Оценка востребованности профессии на рынке труда), Внутрен­ним спокойствием и равновесием (r = 0.308, p < 0.001), Активной стратегией решения проблем (r = 0.385, p < 0.001), Уровнем профессиональных притязаний (r = 0.395, p < 0.001), Чувством поддержки социального окружения (r = 0.300, p < 0.001). Стремление к совершенству и субъективное значение деятельности демонстрируют значимую корреляцию со Способностью трудоустроиться именно внутри организации (r = 0.364, p < 0.001), но не вне ее. Все субшкалы, в особенности Оценка себя как специалиста в организации (r = -0.499, p < 0.001), отрицательно связаны с Переживанием незащищенности. Резуль­та­ты эмпирического исследования свидетельствуют о том, что шкала обладает достаточной надежностью и ее применение позволяет получить валидные результаты в эмпирических исследованиях и практике.
К проблеме сознания и бессознательного в психосемантике
Authors: Петренко В.Ф. , Митина О.В. , Супрун А.П.
Published: January 2022

В статье рассматривается методология эмпирических исследований в психологии, которая была разработана в России для изучения структуры и содержания сознания на разных уровнях — индивидуальном или групповом, с разной степенью доступности для рефлексии. В основе психосемантического подхода лежит методология семантического дифференциала Чарльза Осгуда и теория личных конструктов Джорджа Келли. Построение семантического пространства отличается от процедур измерения в естественных науках. Скорее, система категориальных структур и коннотативных значений служит операциональной основой для эмпатии, понимания индивида или коллективного субъекта (погружения себя в сознание этого субъекта или, в случае изучения самопонимания и рефлексии, в свое собственное). С этой точки зрения психосемантические методы связаны с проективными психологическими тестами, но являются более формализованными, объективными и поддающимися проверке. В этой статье представлены количественные операционные индикаторы, применяемые в психосемантике для проведения сравнительных исследований. Эти показатели включают размерность семантического пространства, т.е. количество обобщенных категорий, образующих это пространство, их иерархическую и организационную структуру, а также сравнительные меры сходства между пространствами. При­ведены примеры ис­поль­зования психосемантического подхода при изучении процесса категоризации и восприятия измененных состояний сознания под гипнозом, в психологии развития, политической психологии, психологии искусства. В статье представлены исследования, проведенные авторами в разные годы, и не ставится задача описать всю российскую психологию по проблеме сознания и бессознательного.

Published: January 2022

This article analyzes the informal sector of entrepreneurial education — free “open” educational projects at the federal level in the context of broader trends in the development of education and society, including education’s ‘unbundling’. The search for information was carried out using the Internet, as a result 45 initiatives were discovered. The results show that the sector of entrepreneurship education is broad, but there are a large number of areas for improvement, in which universities can play an important role. In particular, this concerns elaborating and implementing a system for evaluating educational results, organizing monitoring of the effectiveness of such initiatives, including the analysis of success stories. In addition, a separate task is to expand the set of targeted programs for specific audiences (for example, unemployed), as well as to improve the content of such initiatives more deeply according to the specifics of the relevant target groups (for example, young mothers or older people).
The Resilience and Adaptative Strategies of Italian Cooperatives during the COVID-19 Pandemic
Authors:   University of Trento, Tortia Ermanno , Troisi Roberta ,   University of Salerno
Published: January 2022

Third sector organizations, like the rest of the economic system, have been heavily affected by the pandemic. The aim of this work is to study resilience and adaptability to crisis in terms of economic results and innovative outcomes of the cooperative business model in the Italian third sector during the COVID pandemic. It uses new evidence from a recent survey on the Italian third sector and consists of two main parts. In the first, the institutionalist literature on contractual failures is assumed as an interpretative key in the comparison between the business model, governance, and routines in social cooperatives versus other non-profit organizations (NPOs) interpreted as third sector entities. In the second, we use the new data from a third sector survey in the Marche region, collected in the late spring of 2021 at the end of the pandemic outbreak. Empirical assumptions concern organizational resilience and adaptation to unexpected negative shocks in cooperatives and other NPOs. The results show that, in the management of the crisis, cooperatives are better able to preserve their human capital and resort to layoffs less often than other NPOs. Shared decision-making, employee involvement, and the adaptability of the work process emerge as dominant organizational characteristics that support resilience and service innovation in cooperatives. The main policy implication concerns the ability of cooperatives to play a stabilizing and a-cyclical role during the crisis and to fill the supply gaps left open by other organizational forms (private, non-profit and the public sector). The originality of the paper lies in its new approach to cooperative organization and in the analysis of the reaction of cooperatives to the pandemic.
AKUT AŞİL TENDON RÜPTÜR TEDAVİSİNDE MİNİ-AÇIK VE PERKÜTAN TAMİR YÖNTEMLERİNİN KARŞILAŞTIRILMASI
Authors: İNCİ Fatih , YAVUZ İbrahim Alper
Published: January 2022

Amaç

Akut aşil tendon rüptürü (ATR) tedavisi halen tartışmalı

bir konudur. Geleneksel açık cerrahi tedaviye

göre daha düşük re-rüptür oranları ve daha az yara

yeri sorunları gözlenmesi nedeniyle akut ATR’nin mini-

açık ve perkütan olarak uygulanan minimal invaziv

tekniklerle tedavisi daha iyi bir seçenektir. Bu teknikler

ile başarılı sonuçlar alınmasına rağmen, sural sinir

yaralanması bu tekniklerin en önemli komplikasyonudur.

Bu çalışmada, akut ATR tedavisinde kullanılan

minimal invaziv tekniklerin (mini-açık ve perkütan

tamir) klinik sonuçlarının ve komplikasyon oranlarının

karşılaştırılması amaçlanmıştır.

Gereç ve Yöntem

016-2019 yılları arasında akut ATR’si minimal invaziv

yöntemler ile tamir edilen toplam 42 hasta çalışmaya

alınmıştır. Hastalar, cerrahi kesiden tendon uçlarının

gözlenebildiği mini-açık tamir grubu (Grup 1, n=22) ve

gözlenemediği perkütan tamir grubu (Grup 2, n=20)

olmak üzere 2 gruba ayrıldı. Klinik değerlendirme için

AOFAS skoru, ayak bileği plantar fleksiyon ve dorsifleksiyon

açıları, işe ve spora geri dönüş süreleri

kullanıldı. Cerrahi sonrası komplikasyonlar ise minör

(tekrar cerrahi gerektirmeyen) ve majör (tekrar cerrahi

gerektiren) komplikasyonlar olmak üzere iki kategoriye

ayrıldı. Gruplar fonksiyonel sonuçlar ve komplikasyonlar

açısından karşılaştırıldı.

Bulgular

Hastaların ortalama yaşı 40,30±5,56 (23-50) olarak

bulundu. Gruplar arasında yaş, cinsiyet, ameliyata

kadar geçen süre, ameliyat süresi, takip süresi açısından

istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark bulunamadı

(hepsi için p>0.05). Hastaların ameliyat sonrası ikinci

yıl fonksiyonel sonuçları ile işe ve spora dönüş süreleri

açısından gruplar arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı

bir fark bulunamadı (hepsi için p>0.05). Mini-açık

grupta 2 hastada ve perkütan tamir grubunda 3

hastada minör komplikasyon gözlendi. Sural nöropati

perkütan tamir sonrası 3 (%15) hastada görülürken,

mini-açık tamir sonrası hiçbir hastada görülmedi. Her

iki grubun birer hastasında tekrar ameliyat gerektiren

major komplikasyon görüldü. Gruplar arasında hem

minör hem majör komplikasyonlar açısından istatistiksel

anlamlı fark bulunamadı (sırasıyla p=0,566 ve

p=0,947).

Sonuç

Akut ATR’nin mini-açık veya perkütan tamirle tedavisinin

fonksiyonel sonuçları ve komplikasyonları benzerdir.

Daha düşük sural sinir yaralanma riski olması

nedeniyle mini-açık tamir yöntemi daha avantajlı olabilmektedir.

THE OUTCOME PREDICTION USING NON-CONTRAST COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY SCAN AND COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY ANGIOGRAPHY SCAN IN ACUTE HEMORRHAGIC STROKE
Authors: Rauf Yasir , Al-Bajalan Sarwer , Kurmanji Mohamad
Published: January 2022

Background 

Intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) outcome depends on hematoma volume, location, and expansion.

Objectives 

To assess the validity of neuroimaging signs for predicting the prognosis of patients with acute ICH in our population.

Patients and Methods

A prospective cohort study was performed on 90 patients with acute ICH admitted to Shar Hospital from March to October 2019. Inclusion criteria were ages of ≥18 years and spontaneous ICH, and exclusion criteria were trauma, brain tumour, and secondary ICH. Demographic features were recorded. Blackhole, swirl, island, Blend and spot signs, ICH location and volume, and ICH score were assessed by non-contrast computed tomography (CT) scan and CT angiography. Glasgow coma scale (GCS) and modified Rankin scale were used to assessing patients’ outcomes

Results

Except for the ages of patients (p-values=0.01), other demographic characteristics had no significant associations with the expansion of hematoma and outcome. Modified Rankin Scale, GCS, and hematoma location and volume had statistically significant associations with hematoma expansion and outcome. Further, strong sensitivity of black hole (90.9%) and spot (92.8%) signs, strong specificity of Blend (92.6%) and spot signs (97.1%), substantial positive predictive value for spot sign (92.8%), substantial negative predictive value was for all signs. In addition, substantial accuracy of spot sign (95.8%), were found. Also, significant associations for all the signs, except Blend, with hematoma expansion were found. 

Conclusion

It is better to use neuroimaging signs, at least the signs found on non-contrast CT scans, all together in clinical practice.

Authors: Ahmed Farman , Mirza Aram , Mohammad Hemn , Al-Hamdi Amar
Published: January 2022

Background 

Myocardial infarction is one of the most common causes of mortality in middle and older age groups, especially in the presence of a ventricular arrhythmia.

Objectives 

To determine the relationship between QRS and QTc duration and dispersion with the occurrence of ventriculricular arrhythmia in early stage of myocardial infarction.

Methods

This prospective study of 100 patients (72 males) admitted to Slemani Cardiac Hospital, Sulaimani, Kurdistan Region -Iraq with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention. Electrocardiograms on admission and one day later were evaluated for the duration and dispersion of corrected QT interval (QTc) and QRS.

Results

Mean QTc was 453±35 ms on admission and 440±31.3 ms one day later. Mean QTc dispersion (QTC) was 69±18.4 ms on admission and 49.8±15 ms one day later. Mean QRS duration was 76.8±12.8 ms on admission and 70±10.7 ms one day later, while mean QRS dispersion (d QRS) was 29.4±14.7 ms on admission and 18.8±17.5 ms one day later. There was a significant correlation between ventricular arrhythmia and QRS, dQRS, QTc, and dQTc ≥ 60ms.

Conclusion

Patients with the increased value of corrected QT dispersion, QRS duration, and dispersion in the early stage of STEMI have a greater likelihood of developing ventricular arrhythmia.
RISK FACTORS AND OUTCOME OF MORBIDLY ADHERENT PLACENTA IN SULAYMANIYAH MATERNITY TEACHING HOSPITAL
Authors: Muhammad Huda
Published: January 2022

Background 

Over the last three decades, the incidence of placenta accreta has increased dramatically in concert with the increase in cesarean delivery rate. Moreover, placenta previa has been reported to be associated with a high rate of placenta accreta, which is mainly responsible for direct maternal mortality and morbidity.

Objectives 

The present study aimed to determine the risk factors of the morbidly adherent placenta and their outcomes.

Patients and Methods

The present cross-sectional study was carried out from May 1, 2018, to May 1, 2019. For this purpose, a total number of 38 pregnant women with morbidly adherent placenta above 20 weeks’ gestations were selected. Afterwards, the patients were interviewed using a constructed questionnaire. The data were analyzed using the Chi-square test by Statistical Package for Social Science (version 24). P-values of less than 0.05 were regarded as significant.

Results

Approximately 63% of patients did not report a previous history of previous surgical evacuation, and more than half of them did not have a history of previous abortions. More than 88% of cases of placenta accreta were reported among those with late gestational age. In more than 76% of the patients, the placental position was in an anterior position. Cesarean hysterectomy was the most commonly used surgical intervention. Also, more than two-thirds of them needed a blood transfusion. Furthermore, 75% of placenta increta occurred among anterior placental positions. 

Conclusion

The morbidly adherent placenta is common in patients with repeated cesarean section. Cesarean hysterectomy is the traditional method of managing mean arterial pressure (MAP) to prevent severe blood loss and other maternal morbidities.
Effect of Locator and Telescopic Attachment on Retention value for Two-Piece and One-Piece Implant-Supported Palateless Maxillary Over Denture: An In-vitro study
Authors: Othman Kawan
Published: January 2022

Objective: This study aims to evaluate the effect of two different implant designs (one-piece dental implant and two-piece dental implant) with attachment systems on retention value in implant-supported palate less maxillary overdenture.  

Methods: Two edentulous maxillary models were fabricated from cold-cure polymethyl methacrylate resin. Four implants were inserted for each model as follows: Model I (Four one-piece implants were inserted, two implants in the canine region and two implants in the second premolar region), while Model II (Four two-piece implants were inserted, two implants in the canine region and two implants in second premolar region). The maxillary denture was constructed over each model. In model I, four ready-made titanium telescopic attachments corresponding to implant abutments were embedded in the inner surface of the overdenture. In contrast, in model II, four locator attachments corresponding to implant abutments were embedded in the inner surface of the overdenture. Initial anterior, posterior, and central retention values of overdentures were recorded and compared with the retention after 540 and 1080 cycles of insertion and removal using a digital force gauge.      

Results: Statistical analysis revealed significant differences in the initial, secondary and tertiary retention values for anterior, posterior, and central retentions for both models (higher values were recorded before insertion cycles). The higher anterior and central retention values were recorded in Model II (44.93 and 25.9) N respectively, on the other hand, the higher posterior retention value was recorded for Model I 23.3N.  

Conclusions: The type of attachment affects the retention value of maxillary overdenture. Continuous insertion and removal of the prosthesis lead to a decrease in the retention values.

Authors: Ismail Rekar , Hasan Rizgar
Published: January 2022

Objective: This study aims to evaluate patient satisfaction when treated with implant-supported restorations at Dental Implant Unit- Maxillofacial Surgery Department/Rizgary Teaching Hospital in Erbil-Iraq from 2015-2019.  

Methods: Eighty patients with implant-supported prostheses were randomly selected to participate in the study. A case sheet was created for each of them. The case sheet consisted of two parts. The first part consisted of clinical evaluation recordings: mobility, suppuration, and bleeding on probing the implant-supported prosthesis, which the examiner did. While the second part of the case sheet was a questionnaire that the patient answered. There were five questions in the questionnaire: 1- the ability to chew foods, 2- the appearance of the prosthesis, 3- the comfort of the implant-supported prosthesis, 4- speaking ability, and 5- overall satisfaction with the outcome of the treatment. The degree of satisfaction was assessed by the scale from (1-5) with 1: corresponding to Not satisfied at all, 2: Not satisfied, 3: Partially satisfied, 4: Satisfied, and 5: Highly satisfied.      

Results: Majority (75%) of the sample were either satisfied (30%) or highly satisfied (45%) with the outcome of treatment (overall satisfaction). Nearly the same percentages were obtained regarding the satisfaction with the ability to chew foods, the appearance of the prosthesis, comfort, and speaking ability with the implant-supported prosthesis. In addition, there were strong correlations between mobility and suppuration of the implant-supported prostheses and the patient's satisfaction..  

Conclusions: Within the limitation of this study, it has been concluded that patients treated with implant-supported prostheses were highly satisfied with the treatment. Data on patient satisfaction is an important source of information that can guide dentists to provide treatment that will meet patients' expectations more.
Psychological Factors of Injury-Risk Behavior in Children
Authors: Zakharchuk E.V. , Dotsenko E.L. , Gaibov S.S.
Published: January 2022

The article presents data on the study of factors that contribute to the occurrence of repeated physical injuries in children aged 5—10 years. A model of risk factors for repeated injuries in children is proposed, which can be used in practice not only by a doctor, but also by a psychologist. We studied individual psychological characteristics of children, features of the social situation of the child’s development. It was found that a specific combination of these factors can actually cause repeated physical injuries in the child. In particular, the special role of conditions in the family was revealed, as well as the essential need to distinguish between true and false hyperactivity in children. It is shown that each individual child in the case of injury needs a person whose competence will help in preventive treatment of repeated injuries. The degree of responsibility of the person should be determined. The possibilities of a psychologist-consultant for the prognosis of risk factors and prospects for consultations are discussed.

Objective. To study the features of depopulation in Perm Krai. Materials and methods. The data of Perm Krai official statistics for 20052019 were used; dynamics of vital rate compared to mean indicators in the Russian Federation were studied. Results. Since 2005 to 2019, the population in Perm Krai decreased by 5.7 %, whereas in the Russian Federation for the same period it grew by 2.1 % at the expense of migration processes; birth rate in Perm Krai reduced by 6.4 %; mortality rate in Perm Krai is 13.23 %. There is a growth trend of the natural population loss in both Perm Krai and the Russian Federation. Conclusions. In Perm Krai, there is observed an unfavorable demographic situation, which is characterized by a continuing decrease in the population and natural population loss. To improve the demographic situation in Perm Krai, it is expedient to develop a complex of measures directed to reduction of mortality, stimulation of birth rate, support of families with children as well as restoration of traditional family values and moral principles.
