Determinant of HDI in Yogyakarta Special Region Province
Authors: Annisa Rizki
Published: July 2023

Yogyakarta Special Region (DIY) occupies the second position of high categorical HDI in Indonesia. The UMP, which is the benchmark for the number of wages given to workers, has the lowest amount in Indonesia. Several other factors that were thought to have influenced the high in HDI were inflation, GRDP, and LFPR. This study aims to determine and analyze the factors that influence HDI in DIY. The type of data used in this study is secondary data. The data used are sourced from BPS, Indonesian Statistics Report, Yogyakarta Labour Affair Office and GlobalDataLab. The research method used is multiple regression analysis time series for the period 1990-2019 DIY. The variables used in this study are HDI, Inflation, GRDP, UMP, and LFPR. The results showed that inflation has a negative and not significant effect on HDI. GDRP, UM,P and LFPR have a positive and significant effect on HDI.

Deprivation of Multidimensional Poverty in Pekalongan City
Authors: Muthia Azka , Barikha Ayu Lailatul
Published: July 2023

Poverty is a challenge in development that needs to be solved by each region. However, the calculation of poverty is still oriented to a one-dimensional approach, namely the monetary approach, even though the problem of poverty is multidimensional. Multidimensional poverty includes various deprivations experienced by poor people in their daily lives. This study aims to determine the condition of poverty in a multidimensional manner and the main deprivation of poverty in Pekalongan City. This study uses data from the 2019-2021 National Socio-Economic Survey (Susenas) and the Alkire-Foster multidimensional poverty measurement method, as well as 12 indicators in 3 dimensions (education, health, and living standards). The results show that multidimensional poverty for 3 years in Pekalongan City is always higher than the poverty measurement carried out by BPS. This study also found the priority scale of poverty alleviation assistance needed in Pekalongan City based on its main deprivation, namely the assistance program to overcome the years of schooling in the education dimension, nutritional adequacy in the health dimension and asset ownership in the standard of living dimension.

Kemiskinan merupakan tantangan pembangunan yang perlu diselesaikan oleh setiap daerah. Namun penghitungan kemiskinan sampai saat ini masih berorientasi pada pendekatan satu dimensi yaitu pendekatan moneter padahal permasalahan kemiskinan bersifat multidimensi. Kemiskinan multidimensi mencakup berbagai deprivasi (kekurangan) yang dialami oleh orang miskin dalam kehidupan sehari-hari mereka. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui kondisi kemiskinan secara multidimensi dan deprovasi utama kemiskinan di Kota Pekalongan. Penelitian ini menggunakan data hasil Survei Sosial Ekonomi Nasional (Susenas) tahun 2019-2021 dan metode pengukuran kemiskinan multidimensi Alkire-Foster, serta 12 indikator dalam 3 dimensi (pendidikan, kesehatan, dan standar hidup). Hasil menunjukkan bahwa kemiskinan multidimensi selama 3 tahun di Kota Pekalongan selalu lebih tinggi dibandingkan pengukuran kemiskinan yang dilakukan oleh BPS. Penelitian ini juga menemukan skala prioritas bantuan pengentasan kemiskinan yang dibutuhkan di Kota Pekalongan berdasarkan deprivasi utamanya, yakni progman bantuan untuk mengatasi lama sekolah dalam dimensi pendidkan, kecukupan gizi dalam dimensi kesehatan dan kepemilikan aset dalam dimensi standar hidup.
¿Está cerrado el mapa de Oriente Medio? Objetivos y dificultades del Kurdistán iraquí y su relación con Turquía
Authors: Súarez Collado Ángela
Published: July 2023

El pueblo kurdo, “la mayor nación sin estado”, se encuentra dividido entre distintos países. Uno de ellos, Iraq, en plena situación de post-conflicto, intenta definir su nuevo modelo territorial, donde el Kurdistán iraquí va a ser una cuestión clave. Esta región disfruta de una relativa calma y un elevado nivel de autogobierno desde 1991, pero actualmente encuentra en Turquía uno de sus mayores obstáculos para conseguir su total emancipación. Turquía, con pretensiones territoriales y petroleras en el nuevo Iraq y 12 millones de kurdos, permanece expectante a cualquier cambio en el país vecino. Este artículo analiza las dificultades que tanto Turquía como el Kurdistán iraquí pueden encontrar en el nuevo sistema político iraquí para alcanzar sus propias pretensiones.
Spain's ambivalent good governance and rule of law promotion (explaining the paradox in) the case of Algeria
Authors: Bustos Rafael
Published: July 2023

This paper attempts to explain why although Spain has now a consolidated democratic regime it is still weakly and ambiguosly promoting democracy or even good-governance abroad. Recent events such as international terrorism has made even more urgent to concentrate on democratic assistance in Maghreb neighbouring countries. The concept of governance despite its shortcomings might offer an opportunity for non-intrusive democratic promotion. However, as the case of Algeria shows in the last 3 years and before, Spanish foreign policy and development cooperation actors are manifestly reluctant to engage in such a course of action. Obvious dependence on energy supply (hydrocarbons) is challenged as the main reason for this. Alternatively, it is suggested that long practices in Spanish «Arab» foreign policy, unreformed foreign service, europeanisation of Spain's foreign policy and the «second to France player syndrom» best account for Spain's ambiguity with governance and its slow abandon of statu quo policies.

La juventud musulmana de Madrid responde: lugar y participación social de las asociaciones socioculturales formadas o revitalizadas después de los atentados del 11-M
Authors: Téllez Virtudes
Published: July 2023

En este artículo se reflexionará sobre la respuesta de los jóvenes musulmanes de Madrid a los atentados del 11 de marzo de 2004. Estos jóvenes, motivados por temor a represalias y por la intención de dar a conocer su modo de entender el islam y el significado de ser musulmán, decidieron revitalizar asociaciones existentes o crear otras nuevas mediante las que buscar un lugar desde el que participar social y políticamente. Para conocer la naturaleza y las características de esta respuesta se describirá en primer lugar a los miembros y las dinámicas del nuevo asociacionismo musulmán surgido desde la conmoción y contradicción personal entre lo que estos jóvenes musulmanes entendían por ‘ser musulmán’ y lo que los medios de comunicación decían y mostraban en esos días sobre “los musulmanes”. Posteriormente se analizará el sentido de la participación y espacio social ocupado por estas asociaciones.AbstractIn this article, I will reflect about the reaction of young Muslims from Madrid toward the march 11 2004 bombings. This reaction was preceded by the fear of reprisals as well as by the intention of showing their way of understanding Islam and Muslim concepts and attitudes. These two triggers motivated the revitalization and creation of associations under the idea of finding a place to claim in the social and political arena. To know the nature and features of this reaction, I will describe the new Muslim associations flourished behind the shock and personal contradiction between their meaning of ‘being a Muslim’ and the images of Muslim attitudes showed by mass media during those days. Moreover, I will analyse the meaning of their participation and social place taken up by them.

OBJECTIVE

The accuracy of diagnosis codes to identify suicidal behaviors, including suicide ideation (SI) and self-harm (SH) events, is unknown. The objective of this study was to determine the positive predictive value (PPV) of International Classification of Disease, 10th Revision codes to identify SI/SH events that may be used in studies using administrative and claims data.

METHODS

We performed a secondary analysis of a cross-sectional study of children 5 to 17 years of age hospitalized at 2 US children’s hospitals with a discharge diagnosis of a neuropsychiatric event, including an SI or SH event. A true International Classification of Disease, 10th Revision SI or SH diagnosis was defined as SI or SH present on admission and directly related to hospitalization as compared with physician record review. PPV with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated overall and stratified by diagnosis order and age (5 to 11 years vs 12 to 17 years).

RESULTS

There were 376 children or adolescents with a discharge diagnosis of an SI or SH event. The median age was 14 years, and the majority of individuals were female (58%), non-Hispanic White (69%), and privately insured (57%). A total of 332 confirmed SI/SH cases were identified with a PPV of 0.88 (95% CI 0.85–0.91). PPVs were similar when stratified by diagnosis order: primary 0.94 (95% 0.88–0.97) versus secondary 0.86 (95% CI 81–90). PPVs were also similar in adolescents (0.89, CI 0.85–0.92) compared with children (0.84, 95% CI 0.74–0.91).

CONCLUSIONS

The use of these validated code sets to identify SI or SH events may minimize misclassification in future studies of suicidal and self-harm hospitalizations.
Abnormal structural alterations and disrupted functional connectivity in behavioral addiction: A meta-analysis of VBM and fMRI studies
Authors: Zeng Xinglin , Han Xinyang , Gao Fei , Sun Yinghao , Yuan Zhen
Published: July 2023

Background

Altered large-scale brain systems, including structural alterations and resting-state functional connectivity (rs-FC) changes, have been demonstrated as effective system-level biomarkers for revealing potential neural mechanism of multiple brain disorders. However, identifying consistent abnormalities of large-scale brain systems in behavioral addictions (BA) is challenging due to varying methods and inconsistent results. Therefore, the aim of this study was to identify the significantly abnormal large-scale brain systems in BA.

Method

PubMed, OVID Embase, OVID Medline, and Web of Science were searched with relevant keywords to identify potential studies. A total of 52 studies including 35 rs-FC studies and 17 structural studies were examined by extracting the coordinates of seeds and target brain regions. The seeds were then categorized into predefined seven networks by their locations based on previous parcellations in rs-FC studies, followed by pooling the results in those networks.

Results

The rs-FC findings illustrated that BA were characterized as abnormal networks in response to inhibition, salience attribution, self-referential mental process, and reward-driven behaviors. Meanwhile, meta-analysis of structural studies showed decreased gray matter volume in the anterior cingulate cortex, extending to the middle cingulate cortex and the superior frontal gyrus. Importantly, overlapping regions in the cingulate cortex and anterior thalamus projections extending to caudate regions exhibited both dysfunctions in structure and rs-FC.

Conclusions

This study highlighted substantial dysconnectivity in BA, which might result in impaired response to inhibition and salience attribution. Therefore, this study might provide novel insights of neural biomarkers for clinical diagnoses and treatment targets for BA.

Published: July 2023

Faid was a major pilgrim Islamic oasis located 120 km southeast of the Ha’il Province, northwest of Saudi Arabia. It was founded on the major Hajj Road between Baghdad/Kufa and Medina and was developed by Zubaydah bint Ja'far, granddaughter to the Caliph Abu Ja'far al-Mansur (the founder of Baghdad) and wife to the fifth Abbasid Caliph, Harun Ar-Rašid 775–785 CE. Therefore, during the reign of Harun Ar-Rašid Caliph, the major pilgrim road was renamed from Darb Heerah to Darb Zubaydah. The archaeological site in Faid was referenced and described by several travellers and scholars and excavated by the Heritage Commission, Ministry of Culture, Saudi Arabia 1998–2012. From 2014–2022, the University of Ha’il conducted nine fieldwork seasons at the site. The authors directed the last four seasons, which revealed numerous new discoveries from stratified excavations. This study aims to reconstruct the occupation chronology at the site based on stratigraphic contexts and supported by radiocarbon dating, artefact studies, and written resources. Three occupation horizons were identified at the site; the early Abbasid period was the dominant occupation. The resulting radiocarbon calibrated ages were consistent with the preliminary archaeological studies carried out by the authors. The results presented in this paper represent an attempt to reconstruct the chronology of the study site.

The Strzyżów estate, comprising the town of Strzyżów and the surrounding area along with the nearby villages, in 1787 was acquired by the Sk rzyński family, bearers of Zaremba coat of arms. The circumstances leading to their assumption of authority over the area have not yet been investigated by researchers, and there are many errors and inaccuracies in the literature related to this subject. The article aims to describe the situation leading to the acquisition of the Strzyżów estate from Duke Józef Radziwiłł, and to explain the details of the ownership inheritance in the 19th century by three successive representatives of the family line established by Ignacy Skrzyński, the starost of Dołhe. The sources of information include court records collected in „Tabula Krajowa” files in Lviv, and in Forum Nobilium in Tarnów, and deposited in the archives in Lviv and Kraków.

Cultural and social life clearly contributes to accentuate the self-awareness within a community that, through the act of culture, asserts itself in the field of international relations. At the same time, culture represents a sensitive barometer for socio-economic and political life, through which a series of vital factors can be identified in the process of recovery and development of nations. In the interwar period, Romanian society faced a complex situation, generated by the extensive socio-political, economic and cultural changes that occurred after the end of the Great War. The promotion of the interests of the Romanian national state and of mass culture at the level of the entire country was pursued with consistency, this reality also manifesting itself in the historical province of Crişana, with the city of Oradea as its center. In the new context, a justified emphasis was placed on the culturalization project of Romanian society, for which an appeal was made to the main state institutions and the numerous cultural associations and reunions organized after 1918. Thus, the cultural and economic development program was intended to be implemented on a social scale as wide as possible. In a general view, the schools and organized cultural events led to a series of positive results, accepted as such by the society of Oradea. First of all, the percentage of illiteracy, at alarming levels at the beginning of 1920, was significantly reduced, especially in the countryside. The network of schools in Bihor County, together with intensive conference activity, supported by specialists, allowed not only the enablement of the peasantry in socio-cultural life, but also the understanding of some socio-economic and cultural phenomena that took place with an overflowing rapidity in the interwar society.

The article discusses the summons of parish churches in the diocese of Przemyśl around 1938, in the last moments of a period of stability in the Republic of Poland shortly before the outbreak of World War II. Attention was focused on a comprehensive presentation of the number of patrons, primarily by types of invocations (trinitarian, Christological, Marian, angelic, hagiographic), but also by types or their groups. The analysis covered mainly the primary summons of 350 parish towns within 35 deaneries. However, the summons submitted were not completely omitted, and the collected data were compared, as far as possible, with the findings concerning the same diocese in the Middle Ages. Thanks to the analysis of tabular summaries and graphical presentation on illustrative maps, the location of parish churches was illustrated, taking into account their titles.
Ziemiaństwo polskie wobec komunistów i idei rewolucyjnej na przykładzie dystryktu radomskiego 1939–1945

In the final phase of the German occupation, the communist camp, in the General Government amongst other areas, embarked on the preparatory phase of the Marxist revolution. In the countryside it consisted mainly of fighting the Polish landowners, as a guarantor of the continuation of the old order. The fight against the landowners was carried out on an ideological level (anti-landowner propaganda in the countryside and on the estates), on an economic level (strikes, requisitions, contributions, destruction of crops and machinery), on an organizational level (attempts to set up parceling committees on the manors), and acts of terror (kidnappings, murders) were carried out to physically liquidate the landowners. Landowners, because of their conservative inclinations and social position, reacted negatively to the communist idea and the activities of the revolutionary camp. The political actions of the communists were considered illegal, and their operations against the landed gentry as mere banditry. While protecting their lives and property, at the same time they took steps to strengthen the anti-revolutionary camp by supporting the armed conspiracy and organizing their own political coteries. However, in view of the unfavorable geopolitical situation, these efforts ultimately proved ineffective.

The Polish People's Theater in Lviv is an extraordinary stage in many respects. It was founded in the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic in 1958 by a retired Polish language teacher, Piotr Hausvater. He gathered around him a group of enthusiasts, amateurs who over the years managed to create a team that played not only in the Soviet Union, but also outside its borders. There were no professionals among the actors, but the Theater reached a fully professional level and won numerous awards, presenting plays in Polish in the difficult conditions of a totalitarian state. Pupils, students, workers, engineers, teachers and intellectuals - all devoted their private time to create art for charity. The effect of their work was for many Poles in the USSR the only contact with their native language. It was also a way to become acquainted with the cultural heritage of the country with which they still felt a bond. Interestingly, the band was made up not only of people with Polish roots, but also Ukrainians and Russians. It was the Russian artist Valery Bortyakov who managed the Theater after its director, Zbigniew Chrzanowski, had to leave the Soviet Union due to repressions for laying flowers at the monument to Adam Mickiewicz in Lviv. The theater managed to survive the communist repressions and successfully operates to this day, in free Ukraine.

The regaining of independence by Lithuania brought the Polish national minority a significant improvement in terms of the possibility of developing their own culture. This was particularly influenced by the opening of borders, which allowed closer contacts with Poland and Poles scattered around the world. This contributed to the creation of new Polish organizations, and above all to the construction of the Polish Cultural Centre in Vilnius, which became a place of cultural meetings. These activities were favourable for maintaining and developing national awareness, preserving and passing on identity to future generations. A special role in this process was played by people who, with their hard work and actions, put a lot of effort into promoting their native language and culture. Thanks to their efforts, Polish culture in Lithuania survived and stood out from other national minorities in these areas. Everyone who met these extraordinary people on their way tried to follow them and take care of the beautiful Polish culture and, just like them, pass it on to their surroundings. It should be noted that there are factors that unite people who identify with one nation and culture. Certainly, for Poles living in the Republic of Lithuania such factors included language, religion, literature, national songs and dances. Therefore, the activity of Polish song and dance ensembles, amateur theatres, various associations and cultural institutions, which particularly cultivated Polish culture, and by passing it on to the next generations, protected them from denationalisation.

The aim of this article is to analyze US policy toward the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in the second decade of the 21st century. This period was characterized by dynamics in international relations and among Middle Eastern countries. These questions necessitated the involvement of US, attempts to stabilize the situation and seek solutions to the region's major problems. The years 2008 –2020 saw the presidencies of two American presidents whose plans of action to end the Israeli-Palestinian conflict were of a completely different nature despite having the same goal. The multiplicity of challenges and the visions of successive presidents make the problem extremely interesting, and worthy of scientific and expert analysis.

The industrial revolution initiated humanity's march towards wealth. Started in the 18th century in England, it changed the socio-institutional system of the world, which continues to this day. There are many attempts to explain the revolution. One of them, proposed by D. N. McCloskey, describes the rise of the revolution as a result of a widespread change in society's opinion about creativity, entrepreneurship and innovation. Along with political changes, this has led to an increase in the freedom and dignity of England's middle class. This provided a foothold for an explosion of innovation. However, McCloskey does not account for exactly how the increase in the dignity and freedom of entrepreneurs translates into increased innovation. The aim of the work is to explain this mechanism. Critical literature analysis and deductive reasoning were used to achieve this goal. Research shows that an increase in dignity motivates people to become more active in their own economic projects, while an increase in freedom enables an increase in the participation of the public involved in their own projects. Finally, the increase in economic activity increases the number of market participants, which forces the search for additional annuities by creating and implementing innovations.
Brytyjskie formacje konne na półwyspie Gallipoli w 1915 roku
Authors:   Instytut Historii Uniwersytetu Rzeszowskiego, Korzeniowski Paweł
Published: July 2023

The fighting on the Gallipoli peninsula in 1915 was primarily a clash of masses of infantry. The limited area controlled by the allies and difficult terrain basically prevented the effective use of cavalry. Nevertheless, after a few weeks, the first cavalry units landed on the peninsula. Over the following months, their number systematically grew. At its peak, the composition of the British forces included as many as 15 horse brigades. Armament, equipment, and above all, the principles of training allowed it to fight in the same way as infantry. It was used to man field fortifications at the front or to strengthen the most weakened infantry divisions. Sending horse formations to the peninsula was irrational. Using such formations as infantry deprived them of their main advantage, which was mobility. What's more, positional fighting caused significant losses, even in a situation of relative calm on the front. In addition, problems with provisions and hygiene caused increasing non-combat losses. In the fall, these problems only increased. The Mediterranean Expeditionary Force Command was aware of these problems. It even attempted to obtain additional infantry units from Egypt to replace the cavalry on the peninsula. Unfortunately, personal animosities, competition and lack of strategic thinking meant that these intentions were not implemented.

Aim. To develop an applied clinical calculator for the prognosis of rapid progression of CKD in patients with type 2 diabetes, which allows to identify a group of patients at risk of a high rate of decrease in GFR of diabetes in outpatient admission, to assess its informativeness, resolution and diagnostic significance.Material and methods. A single-stage cross-observational study of clinical status indicators was performed in a population sample of patients with type 2 diabetes. Primary medical data were collected using the AWPE 2.0 program; 150 protocols of outpatient consultations, including 69 clinical indicators, were selected according to the compliance criteria. Based on the results of a comprehensive analysis of the relationship between the indicators of clinical status and the stages of development of CKD in type 2 diabetes, the most significant factors of progression of diabetic kidney damage are identified; the original diagnostic parameter "GFR reduction Index" is proposed and clinically justified, which allows to give an objective quantitative characteristic of the dynamics of the pathological process; the measure of the influence of diagnostically significant predictors on the rate of GFR reduction is determined by regression analysis; a logistic model is constructed, on the basis of which a prognostic calculator for rapid progression of CKD is developed.Results. Quantitative assessment of the contribution of individual clinical indicators to the rate of progression of CKD allowed us to identify the following significant factors: duration of diabetes and insulin therapy, acute myocardial infarction in history, age, BMI, concomitant retinopathy, pulsation on the popliteal artery, risk group IV hypertension, treatment with sulfonylureas (without differentiated assessment by pharmacological groups), calcium antagonists; when evaluating the informativeness and predictive ability of the calculator, the area under the AUC ROC curve was 0,90 (0,82; 0,98), p<0,001, which characterizes the quality of the diagnostic technique as very high.Conclusion. The original diagnostic parameter "Glomerular filtration Rate reduction Index" allows us to get a more detailed and accurate idea of the patterns of progression of CKD in DM, the applied clinical calculator of rapid progression of CKD allows us to identify a group of patients at risk of a high rate of GFR reduction, with a high level of diagnostic significance in outpatient settings.

Transcription Factor E2F1 Enhances Hepatocellular Carcinoma Cell Proliferation and Stemness by Activating GINS1
Authors: Ren Xuefeng , Shen Lianqiang , Gao Shan
Published: July 2023

Present studies report that high expression of GINS complex subunit 1 (GINS1) is notably pertinent to poor survival for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but it remains unclear how GINS1 affects the progression of HCC. This study aims at investigating the mechanism by which GINS1 affects HCC cell proliferation and stemness. We performed bioinformatics analysis for determining GINS1 expression in HCC tissues, as well as the HCC patients' survival rate with different expression levels of GINS1. E2F transcription factor 1 (E2F1) was predicted as the upstream transcription factor of GINS1, and the binding relation between the two was verified by chromatin immunoprecipitation and dual-luciferase reporter assays. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction was adopted to evaluate the expression of GINS1 and E2F1. The protein expression levels of GINS1, E2F1, and cell stemness-related genes (SOX-2, NANOG, OCT4, and CD133) were detected by Western blot. Afterward, the proliferative capacity and stemness of HCC tumor cells were determined through colony formation, cell counting kit-8, and sphere formation assays. Our study found the high expression of GINS1 and E2F1 in HCC, and overexpressed GINS1 markedly enhanced the sphere formation and proliferation of HCC cells, while silencing GINS1 led to the opposite results. Besides, E2F1 promoted the transcription of GINS1 by working as an upstream transcription factor. The results of the rescue experiment suggested that overexpressed E2F1 could offset the suppressive effect of GINS1 silencing on HCC cell stemness and proliferation. We demonstrated that the transcription factor E2F1 accelerated cell proliferation and stemness in HCC by activating GINS1 transcription. The results can provide new insight into the GINS1-related regulatory mechanism in HCC, which suggest that it may be an effective way for HCC treatment by targeting the E2F1/GINS1 axis.

S1P exerts its functional effects by binding to the G protein-coupled S1P receptor (S1PR). This lipid mediator plays a pivotal role in various cellular activities. The S1P/S1PR signaling pathway is implicated in the pathogenesis of immune-mediated diseases, significantly contributing to the functioning of the immune system. It plays a crucial role in diverse physiological and pathophysiological processes, including cell survival, proliferation, migration, immune cell recruitment, synthesis of inflammatory mediators, and the formation of lymphatic and blood vessels. However, the full extent of the involvement of this signaling pathway in the development of autoimmune diseases remains to be fully elucidated. Therefore, this study aims to comprehensively review recent research on the S1P/S1PR axis in diseases related to autoimmunity.

The paper is devoted to the rate of convergence of integral sums of two different types to fractional integrals. The first theorem proves the H¨older property of fractional integrals of functions from various integral spaces. Then we estimate the rate of convergence of the integral sums of two types corresponding to the H¨older functions, to the respective fractional integrals. We illustrate the obtained results by several figures.

We consider an important class of disturbed infinite-dimensional systems provided by evolutionary equations with impulsive effects. An impulsive dynamical system acting in the phase space H is a hybrid system described by an evolutionary equation together with impulsive disturbances which, in turn, are characterized by a closed set M ⊂ H (impulsive set) and a mapping I: M -> H (impulsive mapping). A solution of such a system, by definition, is a left-continuous function y satisfying evolutionary equation for all times t for which y(t) \notin M and jumping to a new state I(y(t)) at all times t for which y(t) reaches M. The main problem in the study of qualitative behavior of impulsive dynamical systems by classical methods is that solutions usually do not depend continuously on initial data. A number of examples illustrate already in the finite-dimensional case that new complex scenarios of possible limit behaviors of impulsive trajectories can occur, which are fundamentally impossible in the non-impulsive case. Results concerning attracting sets for infinite-dimensional impulsive systems have appeared only a few years ago. But all those results concern the limit behavior of impulsive semiflows in Hilbert space and the presence of scalar product played crucial role in those construction. In this paper we want to investigate ω-limit attracting sets for impulsive-disturbed parabolic system in the sup-norm of Banach space of continuous functions.

Online platforms have become an integral part of our lives, and the number of users is increasing by the day. From social media platforms to e-commerce websites, these platforms are used by millions of people around the world. With such a large user base, it is essential for these platforms to classify their users based on their behavior, preferences, and interests. This paper explores how machine learning can be used to classify users on online platforms. When classifying users, they are divided into different categories based on their characteristics. By analyzing user behavior and preferences, online platforms can personalize their services and provide a better user experience. Machine learning techniques can help online platforms automate the classification process and reduce human effort. In this article, the behavioral classification of users on online platforms will be discussed in detail.

BACKGROUND: Anorectal abnormalities occur in 1:1,500 to 1:5,000 live births. There is still no agreement on the best surgical procedure for treating some types of anorectal abnormalities in males. Anorectoplasty could be performed using the posterior sagittal approach and using laparoscopic techniques.
AIM: To assess the risk of postoperative complications and determine their specificity in males with anorectal malformations, depending on the surgery approach.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: A single-center retrospective cohort study was performed. Male patients with anorectal malformations who had surgical correction of anorectal malformation by posterior sagittal (group I) or laparoscopic-assisted anorectoplasty (group II) at the age of up to 1 yr at the N.F. Filatov Childrens City Clinical Hospital from 2008 to 2022. Postoperative and intraoperative problems and the number of surgical interventions that had to be redone to correct issues were noted.
RESULTS: Of the 33 patients in group I, 18 (55%) had anorectal malformations with bulbar fistula, 12 (36%) had anorectal malformations without fistula, and three (9%) had a prostatic fistula. Group II included 99 patients, with 53 (54%) having anorectal malformations with prostatic fistula, 30 (30%) having anorectal malformations with bulbar fistula, nine (9%) having anorectal malformations with bladder neck fistula, and seven (7%) having anorectal malformations without a fistula. The incidence of intraoperative and postoperative complications was statistically significantly higher in children after posterior sagittal anorectoplasty than laparoscopic-assisted anorectoplasty: I, 19 (58%) versus II, 33 (33%); p = 0.014. The number of redo surgical interventions to correct complications did not differ significantly between the studied groups: I, 8 (24%) versus II, 26 (26%); p = 0.819. The incidence of urethral damage was identified with posterior sagittal anorectoplasty compared with laparoscopic-assisted anorectoplasty: I, 4 (12%) versus II, 0 (0%); p 0.001. We found no differences in postoperative complications between laparoscopic-assisted and posterior sagittal anorectoplasty.
CONCLUSIONS: The results define laparoscopic-assisted anorectoplasty as a viable and promising method that does not have specific postoperative complications if it is technically correctly performed. It is necessary to develop clear criteria for rectum mobilization and the volume of rectourethral fistula dissection during laparoscopic-assisted surgery to reduce the risks of postoperative problems and repeat surgery.
YAHYA MAHLASLI BİR ŞAİRE AİT BİR NASİHATNAME
Authors: Erkan Ahmet Serdar
Published: July 2023

Arapça “na-sa-ha” üçlü kökünden türetilmiş olan nasihat, kendi iradesiyle doğru yolu bulamayan birine, onun iyiliğini düşünerek kötü ve yanlış davranışlardan uzaklaştırmak veya yol göstermek amacıyla söylenen sözlere denir. Nasihatname ise toplum hayatını daha yaşanılır kılmak için iyi ve ahlaklı insanlar yetiştirmek amacıyla yazılan öğütlerle dolu mensur ya da manzum eserlerdir. Nasihatnameler bir zümre için yazılabileceği gibi toplumun tamamı için de yazılabilir. Toplumların daha çok çözülme dönemlerinde kaleme alınan nasihatnameler, Türk edebiyatında özellikle Türklerin Müslüman olduktan sonraki döneminde görülmüş olup daha sonra yaygınlaşmaya başlamıştır. Edebiyatımızda birçok şair bu tarz eserler yazmıştır. Yaşadığı toplumun problemlerini bilen ve bunlara çeşitli çözüm yolları üretmeye çalışan şairler, bunu yaparken çoğu kez sade bir dil kullanmıştır. Makale konumuz olan nasihatname ise “Yahya” mahlaslı bir şaire aittir. “Fî Beyân-ı Kasîde-i Naṣîḥat” başlıklı bu eser, İBB Atatürk Kitaplığının nadir eserler bölümünde “Bel_Yz_K.001604” demirbaş numarasına kayıtlı mecmua ile Ankara Adnan Ötüken İl Halk Kütüphanesinde 06 Hk 1637/5 demirbaş numarasına kayıtlı mecmuanın içinde yer almaktadır. Bu nasihatnamenin müellifi olan Yahya için kesin bir kanaat ileri sürecek delilimiz yoktur. Şairin tespiti için edebiyat tarihimizdeki 18 Yahya mahlaslı şair üzerinden bazı değerlendirmeler yapılmıştır. Eser, kaside nazım şekli ile yazılmakla birlikte bu nazım şeklinin methiye, tegazzül, dua gibi bölümleri bu şiirde bulunmamaktadır. Nasihatnamede “dünyanın faniliği, ölüm ve sonrası, nefsin hileleri” gibi konular etrafında öğütler verilmektedir.
