Published: January 2024

Storage is a storage medium which is an important part of the system infrastructure. Storage utilization is one of the variables in determining the needs and performance of a system. If the storage is lacking or depleted it will cause the system to be hampered and the possibility of interference occurring. There were eight complaints or reports of system disturbances recorded in the Ministry of Finance's ticketing service desk application caused by anomalies in storage or disk capacity. Things like this can be anticipated if we know the storage capacity requirements for the future. In compiling ICT capacity analysis at Pusintek there has been no use of past data to plan future storage requirements. The use of data mining algorithms can be used to obtain forecast values from storage utilization. The use of the ARIMA model and Holt-Winters Exponential Smoothing as a method used to predict inventory is considered to be a fairly accurate model. Both algorithms are used to compare which accuracy is better in predicting storage requirements by measuring RMSE. Research data was obtained from monthly utilization reports from January 2021 to December 2022. From the evaluation results it can be concluded that forecasting storage server database utilization using the Holt-Winters method is better than the ARIMA method with the RMSE results for the Holt-Winters method being 14332.661717740748 and the RMSE method ARIMA is 20498.977982137938. The results of this forecasting can be utilized in planning database server storage needs.

Published: January 2024

Papaya (Carica papaya L) is consumed by many people because it is beneficial for health. Along with increasing consumption or enthusiasts of papaya, the quality of papaya needs to be considered. One of the determining factors of the quality of papaya is its physical characteristics, which can be seen from its color, shape, and texture. Papaya of good quality has a delicious and sweet taste. The sweet taste of papaya is certainly influenced by the sugar content contained in it. However, to determine the sugar content in papaya is only done by human assessment based on its physical characteristics, this assessment is often less accurate. With a system that can determine the sugar content in papaya, it will make it easier for farmers to sort papaya fruit. Therefore, in this study, it is proposed to classify the level of sugar content in papaya based on color features using an Artificial Neural Network. The proposed method consists of 5 stages, namely, image acquisition, preprocessing, segmentation with the Otsu method, morphological operations, and classification with artificial neural networks. The number of papaya datasets used is 300 images which are divided into 3 classes, low class, medium class, and tal class. Based on the results of the tests that have been carried out, an accuracy of 92.85% is obtained for the training data, and for the test data, an accuracy of 100% is obtained. These results indicate that the proposed method can classify the level of sugar content in papaya fruit accurately.

Identifying Possible Biomarkers for Early-Stage Hepatocellular Carcinoma using Random Forest Machine Learning Method
Authors: YAŞAR Şeyma
Published: January 2024

Hepatocellular carcinoma is a primary liver tumour arising from hepatocytes, the liver's own cells. It is one of the most common types of cancer in the world. The most important cause is chronic liver disease due to hepatitis B and C infections. In some patients, HCC causes symptoms such as abdominal pain, loss of appetite, anaemia, nausea, fatigue and jaundice and is diagnosed as a result of tests. In some patients, it is detected incidentally by liver ultrasound, tomography or MRI performed for another reason. The most typical finding is an increase in a substance called alpha-fetoprotein (AFP). Although this does not occur in all patients, elevated AFP in a patient with cirrhosis strongly indicates the presence of HCC. HCC can be seen on ultrasound, tomography or MRI films. Especially in tomography and MRI, the rapid and strong retention of the intravenous drug and then its early wash out is a typical finding and if detected in a patient with cirrhosis, HCC can be diagnosed without the need for biopsy. However, in many patients, imaging findings are not typical and a biopsy is required for diagnosis. In this study, a Random Forest machine learning model was created with proteomic data regarding the cancerous tumor tissue and the adjacent non-cancerous tissue of 19 HCC patients. the accuracy, balanced accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, F1-Score, MCC and G-Mean values for the Random Forest model were 0.90, 0.88, 0.90, 0.93, 0.82, 0.91, 0.82 and 0.91, respectively. Considering the model-dependent variable significance, SRSF1 and PBLD proteins are suggested as biomarkers that may be clinically useful in the diagnosis of early-stage HCC.

Complication rates after direct anterior vs posterior approach for hip hemiarthroplasty in elderly individuals with femoral neck fractures
Authors: Charles Tatiana , Bloemers Nicolas , Kapanci Bilal , Jayankura Marc
Published: January 2024

BACKGROUND

Dislocation rates after hemiarthroplasty reportedly vary from 1% to 17%. This serious complication is associated with increased morbidity and mortality rates. Approaches to this surgery are still debated, with no consensus regarding the superiority of any single approach.

AIM

To compare early postoperative complications after implementing the direct anterior and posterior approaches (PL) for hip hemiarthroplasty after femoral neck fractures.

METHODS

This is a comparative, retrospective, single-center cohort study conducted at a university hospital. Between March 2008 and December 2018, 273 patients (a total of 280 hips) underwent bipolar hemiarthroplasties (n = 280) for displaced femoral neck fractures using either the PL (n = 171) or the minimally invasive direct anterior approach (DAA) (n = 109). The choice of approach was related to the surgeons’ practices; the implant types were similar and unrelated to the approach. Dislocation rates and other complications were reviewed after a minimum follow-up of 6 mo.

RESULTS

Both treatment groups had similarly aged patients (mean age: 82 years), sex ratios, patient body mass indexes, and patient comorbidities. Surgical data (surgery delay time, operative time, and blood loss volume) did not differ significantly between the groups. The 30 d mortality rate was higher in the PL group (9.9%) than in the DAA group (3.7%), but the difference was not statistically significant (P = 0.052). Among the one-month survivors, a significantly higher rate of dislocation was observed in the PL group (14/154; 9.1%) than in the DAA group (0/105; 0%) (P = 0.002). Of the 14 patients with dislocation, 8 underwent revision surgery for recurrent instability (posterior group), and one of them had 2 additional procedures due to a deep infection. The rate of other complications (e.g. , perioperative and early postoperative periprosthetic fractures and infection-related complications) did not differ significantly between the groups.

CONCLUSION

These findings suggest that the DAA to bipolar hemiarthroplasty for patients with femoral neck fractures is associated with a lower dislocation rate (< 1%) than the PL.

THE NORTH CAUCASUS IN THE RELATIONSHIP WITH RUSSIA, TURKEY AND IRAN FROM THE END OF THE XVII CENTURY TO THE FIRST THIRD OF THE XVIII CENTURY
Authors: Чеучева А.К.
Published: January 2024

Период конца XVII– первой трети XVIII вв. является переломным в историческом развитии Северного Кавказа. Кавказ попал в череду непрекращающихся войн, частота и масштабы которых превзошли все предыдущие эпохи. Северный Кавказ оказался в треугольнике крупных игроков на международной арене. Дряхлеющий Иран и разваливающаяся Османская империя стремились за счет приобретения кавказских территорий решить свои внешнеполитические и внутриполитические проблемы. Российская империя расширяла свои рубежи. Соперничающие державы полем своего противостояния сделали кавказские земли. Население региона поневоле втягивалось в политическую игру, навязанную извне. Кавказские народы, не всегда осведомленные обо всех нюансах большой игры, вынуждены были в непростых условиях принимать решения и нести все тяготы своего «выбора». В новейшее время кавказский регион остается геополитическим форпостом, за который идут многочисленные сражения. Проблема актуальна тем, что изучение ее позволяет объяснить те причины, в силу которых интерес к региону не ослабевает и сегодня. Целью статьи является изучение политики России, Турции и Ирана на Северном Кавказе в контексте местных политических реалий изучаемого периода.

The period from the end of the XVII century to the first third of the XVIII century is a turning point in the historical development of the North Caucasus. The Caucasus region was caught in a series of continuous wars, the frequency and scale of which exceeded all previous epochs. The North Caucasus found itself in the triangle of major players on the international stage. A weakened Iran and a crumbling Ottoman Empire sought to solve their foreign policy and domestic problems by acquiring Caucasian territories. The Russian Empire expanded its borders. The rival powers made the Caucasus lands the field of their confrontation. The population of the region involuntarily got involved in a political game imposed from outside. The Caucasian peoples, not always fully aware of all the nuances of the great game, were forced to make decisions and bear all the burdens of their "choice" in difficult conditions. In modern times, the Caucasian region remains a geopolitical outpost that witnesses numerous battles. The problem is relevant because its study allows us to explain the reasons why interest in the region has not weakened even today. The aim of the article is to study the policies of Russia, Turkey, and Iran in the context of the local political realities of the North Caucasus during the analyzed period.

Демографическая ситуация в нашей стране вызывает серьёзную озабоченность: на протяжении нескольких десятилетий происходит естественная убыль населения, компенсируемая лишь миграционным приростом. Институт семьи переживает трансформацию, итог которой – неустойчивость браков (большое количество разводов), падение уровня рождаемости. В этих условиях исследование брачно-семейных установок молодёжи, представлений о семье является крайне актуальным. В статье приведены результаты эмпирического исследования – опроса, проведённого в январе-апреле 2023 г. в Республике Адыгея, посвященного изучению мнения о семейной жизни, о семейных ценностях, о репродуктивных установках людей молодого возраста, многим из которых только предстоит создать семью. Респондентами выступили студенты, обучающиеся в вузах и колледжах республики. Анкета, подготовленная авторами статьи, включала в себя вопросы различной тематики: репродуктивные установки, отношения внутри семьи и с родственниками, ведущие ценности семьи. Результаты анкетирования, проведенного в регионе, продемонстрировали не только сохранение ответственного отношения опрошенных к семейной жизни, но и частичные изменения, связанные с размыванием традиционных представлений о семье, а также с трансформацией статусно-ролевых диспозиций в практике внутрисемейных отношений.

The demographic situation in our country causes serious concern: for several decades there has been a natural population decline, compensated only by migration growth. The institution of the family is undergoing a transformation, the result of which is the instability of marriages (a large number of divorces) and a drop in the birth rate. In these conditions, the study of marriage and family attitudes of young people and ideas about the family is extremely relevant. The article presents the results of an empirical study - a survey conducted in January-April 2023 in the Republic of Adyghea, devoted to studying attitudes towards family life, family values, and reproductive attitudes of young people, many of whom have yet to start a family. The respondents were students studying at universities and colleges of the republic. The questionnaire prepared by the authors of the article included questions on various topics: reproductive attitudes, relationships within the family and with relatives, leading family values. The results of the survey showed a responsible attitude of respondents towards family life, as well as a partial change and erosion of traditional ideas about the family and the responsibilities of family members.

Nikolay Lisovoy: “I am a Conservative!” (Review of Nikolay Lisovoy’s Work in the Soviet Period)
Authors: Safonov D. V.
Published: January 2024

This article delves into the works of Nikolay Nikolayevich Lisovoy (1946–2019) during the initial 45 years of his life, which coincided with the Soviet era. It was during this period that the main concepts of his creativity were formulated: the Orthodox Empire and its relation to the Church, the history of Russian theology, the history of the Russian Church and its saints, Russian conservative journalism from the late 19th to the early 20th century, and the Russian spiritual and political presence in the East. Nikolay Lisovoy’s youth was marked by the peak of his poetic creativity, and he primarily considered himself a poet. To the contemporary reader, Nikolay Lisovoy is largely known for his writings on the Holy Land and his activities in the Imperial Orthodox Palestine Society (IPPO). However, during the considered period of his creative output, these themes were not yet at the forefront of his attention, thus his main contributions to the development of Russian conservative thought remain practically unknown. Based on Nikolay Lisovoy’s personal archive and his early publications, the author analyzes his works written during the Soviet era, delves into the origins of his creativity, and identifies individuals who significantly influenced his formation. Of particular interest is the examination of Nikolay Lisovoy’s works at the intersection of disciplines: physics, philosophy and theology, semiotics and linguistics, history and canon law, historiosophy and political science. Nikolay Lisovoy’s creative output is explored using materials from his personal archive within the context of the epoch, taking into account individuals who had a particular influence on him, including his mother Olga Talantseva, Fyodor Sukhov, Vasily Shulgin, Archimandrite Innokenty (Prosvirnin), Tatyana Glushkova and others.

This publication, commemorating the 5th anniversary of Nikolay Lisovoy’s passing, aims to initiate a comprehensive study of Nikolay Lisovoy’s spiritual and scientific legacy from the first 30 years of his creative path, which unfolded during the Soviet period, and and introduce it to the scientific society. By 1991, Nikolay Lisovoy laid the foundations of concepts that are extremely relevant to conservative thought today. The most important of them is the idea that Russia was and remains an Orthodox Empire, destined to resist the entropy threatening humanity and originating from the West. Above all, he considered himself a conservative.

The author of the article has been a disciple of Nikolay Lisovoy since 2003, actively promoting his works. After being ordained as a priest in 2013, he regularly performed confession, communion, and administered the last sacraments for the scholar and his spouse.
À qui appartiennent les terres du monde ? État mondial de la reconnaissance des droits fonciers des communautés autochtones, afro-descendantes et locales de 2015 à 2020
Authors:   Rights and Resources Initiative
Published: January 2024

Depuis que nous avons publié la première édition de À qui appartiennent les terres du monde ? en 2015, la reconnaissance mondiale de l’importance de reconnaître légalement et de sécuriser les droits fonciers communautaires et les droits d’utilisation des ressources des 2,5 milliards de peuples autochtones, de peuples afro-descendants et de communautés locales dans le monde a atteint des sommets sans précédent. Après des décennies de plaidoyer national et international par les titulaires de droits et leurs alliés, la sécurité foncière pour les communautés et les femmes des communautés est désormais reconnue comme une composante intégrale de l’Agenda 2030, sans laquelle les Objectifs de développement durable (ODD), le Cadre mondial pour la biodiversité de Kunming-Montréal et les objectifs de l’Accord de Paris ne pourront pas être atteints. En outre, des preuves de plus en plus nombreuses concluent ce que les peuples autochtones, les peuples afro-descendants et les communautés locales soutiennent depuis longtemps, à savoir qu’ils sont les meilleurs gestionnaires de leurs terres et de leurs ressources. Cette deuxième édition de À qui appartiennent les terres du monde ? rend compte des progrès accomplis au cours des cinq premières années (2015-2020) dans la réalisation des ODD, de l’Accord de Paris et de l’objectif de Land Rights Now visant à doubler la superficie des terres appartenant aux communautés, en fournissant des données actualisées sur l’étendue des terres légalement reconnues comme étant conçues pour les peuples autochtones et les communautés locales et leur appartenant, dans 73 pays couvrant 85 % des terres mondiales.
Diagnostic value of a preoperative acromioclavicular injection for symptomatic acromioclavicular osteoarthritis: a retrospective study of cross-sectional midterm outcomes
Authors: Vossen Roderick Jan Maximiliaan , Puijk Raymond , Sierevelt Inger Nicoline , van Noort Arthur
Published: January 2024

Background: It is essential to distinguish between symptomatic- and asymptomatic radiographic acromioclavicular (AC) osteoarthritis (OA) because AC-targeted physical examinations are dubious. This study aimed to determine the diagnostic value of a preoperative AC injection in discriminating between symptomatic- and asymptomatic radiographic AC OA based on patient arthroscopic distal clavicle resection (aDCR) outcomes. Methods: Forty-eight patients who underwent aDCR for AC OA were included. Their satisfaction was objectified using a 5-point Likert scale and patient willingness to repeat the surgery. The Oxford Shoulder Score (OSS), the Subjective Shoulder Value (SSV), and the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) were used to assess postoperative shoulder function and pain. Patients were subdivided into groups based on their good or minimal reaction to an AC injection (good reaction: ≥7 consecutive days of pain reduction. Minimal reaction: <7 consecutive days of pain reduction).Results: Twenty-seven patients had a good reaction and 21 patients had a minimal reaction to the AC injection (median follow-up, 45.0 months; range, 31.0–52.8 months). No significant differences were found in level of satisfaction (P=0.234) or willingness to repeat the surgery (P=0.861). No significant differences were found in OSS (P=0.612), SSV (P=0.641), NRS at rest (P=0.684) or during activity (P=0.422).Conclusions: This study found no significant differences between patients with a good reaction or a minimal reaction to an AC injection after aDCR surgery. The outcomes of this study seem to suggest that a distinction between symptomatic and asymptomatic radiographic AC OA is unnecessary, as all patients were equally satisfied with the outcome.Level of evidence: IV.

In the contemporary domain, sustainable construction projects are growing in the market with advanced standards. With the application of new materials and technology in construction, there has been an exponential surge in risks. The significance of risk administration in optimizing sustainability in construction ventures is, therefore, augmenting. This thesis assignment was aimed at expanding insights into project-related operational risks in the construction sector and their management. It was requisite to get familiar with good practices in the sector to suggest effective recommendations relating to the topic. The thesis examined operational risk management (ORM) as an approach to optimize sustainability in the construction industry. The thesis assumed an archival study and secondary analysis to construe the study hypothesis. Data gathering utilized both primary and secondary approaches. The questionnaire was used to reinforce the research outcomes. Data analysis involved categorization using a network of relationships. The results from 10 articles sampled in the study indicated that while most actors in the construction sector understand the importance of risk management, the role played by ORM in improving sustainability is not widespread.

While a digital transformation plan begins in the C-suite, it is in the implementation that project managers must grab the reins. Project managers, as the executive muscle of any business, are in charge of putting senior leadership's vision into action and delivering the company's new digital capabilities. Cross-team communication is one of the most significant areas where new digital technology is reshaping project management. When it comes to collaboration, traditional methods like email are inconvenient because they aren't meant for real-time communication. Important information is quickly lost in long email exchanges, and email saturation saps productivity. Collaborative work management software, on the other hand, allows team members and coworkers from other departments to engage, connect, and interact in real time, drastically reducing email clutter and saving time. However, these technologies do more than just improve the efficiency of intra-work communication; they also improve its effectiveness. A good example is the viability of AI as a transformation tool in several businesses. It has been effectively used and underlined in several businesses as important. According to Soni & Sharma et al.(2019), the importance of AI can be seen in its wide and seamless integration across several sectors of business that ultimately helps them in the growth and expansion of their various services. This study therefore seeks to look at the influence of digital transformations on the overall outlook of businesses from various industries.

The vacuum expectation value of the current density is investigated for a massive scalar field in a (D+1)-dimensional flat space-time with compact dimension. Along a compact dimension, the field operator obeys the helical quasiperiodicity condition with a constant phase. In the special case of a zero helicity parameter, the results previously studied in the literature are obtained. In contrast to that case, the vacuum current, in addition to the component along the compact dimension, has a non-zero component in the direction of the non-compact dimension along which the field operator is shifted. A simple relation between those components is obtained. They are odd periodic functions of magnetic flux threading the compact dimension, with the period equal to the flux quantum. For a given non-zero value of the helicity parameter, the component of the vacuum current along the compact dimension tends to zero in the limit when the length of that dimension tends to zero. In the problem considered earlier with the usual quasiperiodic condition, the vacuum current diverges in that limit.
Исследовано вакуумное среднее плотности тока массивного скалярного поля в (D+1)-мерном плоском пространстве-времени с компактным измерением. Вдоль компактного измерения оператор поля удовлетворяет спиральному условию квазипериодичности с постоянной фазой. В частном случае нулевого параметра спиральности получаются результаты, ранее исследованные в литературе. В отличие от этого случая, вакуумный ток, наряду с компонентой вдоль компактного измерения, имеет ненулевую компоненту по направлению некомпактного измерения, вдоль которого смещается оператор поля. Получено простое соотношение между этими компонентами. Они являются нечетными периодическими функциями магнитного потока, пронизывающего компактное измерение с периодом, равным кванту магнитного потока. При заданном ненулевом значении параметра спиральности компонента вакуумного тока вдоль компактного измерения стремится к нулю в пределе, когда длина этого измерения стремится к нулю. В рассмотренной ранее проблеме с обычным квазипериодическим условием в этом пределе вакуумный ток расходится.

This study analyses the relationships among “GNH in corporation”, employees’ psychological capital and employees’ performance within the business corporations of Bhutan. Since no prior studies have been conducted to assess the connections among the variables of GNH in corporation (as independent variable), employee psychological capital (as mediator) and the employee performance (as dependent variable), the objective of the research was to bridge this knowledge gap. The data were collected from 511 full-time employees of Druk Holding and Investments Ltd (DHIL) and its six owned companies. The test result indicates that GNH in corporation determines both employees’ psychological capital and employee performance. Most importantly, the employee psychological capital is found to fully mediate the influence of GNH in corporation on employee performance. This was ascertained based on mediation analysis using bootstrapping technique. The research framework was developed after synthesizing existing relevant theories and identifying appropriate procedures and methods; this research thus extends the current literature theoretically and methodologically. Also, the specific findings shall have practical implications, especially for managers and leaders of business corporations.
