A study on the prevalence of scrub typhus among pediatric population in a rural tertiary care hospital in West Bengal
Authors: Anirban Bhaduri  , Sayani Bose  , Atindra Kumar
Published: November 2024

Background: Scrub typhus is a common rickettsial infection endemic in India and is an important cause of acute febrile illness among children. Clinical manifestations vary from mild-to-severe affecting almost all organ systems with a high fatality rate. To reduce morbidity and mortality, a high index of suspicion, timely diagnosis, and treatment are crucial. However, due to lack of awareness, low index of suspicion among clinicians, and non-specific clinical presentation which overlaps with other tropical endemic infections of India such as dengue, chikungunya, malaria, and leptospirosis, scrub typhus is often underdiagnosed in our country.
Aims and Objectives: (1) To find the prevalence of scrub typhus among children presenting with fever for the last 5 days, (2) To study their clinico-demographic profiles.
Materials and Methods: Blood collected from children aged 1 month to 12 years of age presenting with fever for the last 5 days were tested for scrub typhus immunoglobulin M enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Clinical characteristics and laboratory parameters of the patients were collected. The results obtained were analyzed and interpreted.
Results: Out of 865 pediatric patients presenting with fever, only 227 (26.24%) were positive for scrub typhus. Maximum cases (45.37%) were found in the age group >5–12 years. Fever was the presenting feature in all the cases. Other common presentations were hepatosplenomegaly, lymphadenopathy, pain abdomen, rash, and eschar.
Conclusion: Although scrub typhus is an easily treatable disease, timely diagnosis and treatment are needed to avoid complications which require a high degree of suspicion among clinicians along with a robust laboratory setup with adequate diagnostic facilities.

Authors: Aprajita Jha  , Pramit Goswami  , Sutapa Mandal  , Pranita Taraphdar  , Arif Hossain  , Suman Sannigrahi
Published: November 2024

Background: Nutrition is critical to the health and development of infants and children. Nutritional deficiencies in early life result in long-term impairment in growth. Optimal infant and young child feeding (IYCF) practices are one of the most effective interventions in improving child health.
Aims and Objectives: The study was conducted to assess the knowledge and counseling skills of Accredited Social Health Activists (ASHAs) regarding IYCF in Bhatar community development block of Purba Bardhaman District.
Materials and Methods: A descriptive and cross-sectional study was conducted among 110 study subjects selected randomly from 17 subcenters and 38 health and wellness centers of Bhatar block of Purba Bardhaman District. It was conducted using a pre-designed, pre-tested schedule having a total score of 16, from November 2023 to February 2024.
Results: Mean knowledge score of ASHAs regarding IYCF was 12.05±2.24. On further analysis, good, average, and poor knowledge about IYCF was observed among 9.1%, 78.2%, and 12.7% of the ASHA workers, respectively. On univariate analysis, level of knowledge was found to be significantly associated with duration of service (P=0.001) and training status (P=0.00) of ASHAs. It was observed that messages regarding the addition of oil/ghee and proper hand washing after handling child’s excreta were mostly missed during counseling sessions.
Conclusions: Most ASHA workers had correct knowledge on IYCF but during counseling sessions, most of the key messages were not provided by them to mothers. Thus, it was concluded that a change in training approach is necessary for enhancing counseling skills and knowledge-sharing by ASHAs.
Pre-diagnostic “chronic life stressors” and their association with breast cancer outcomes: A cross-sectional observation study
Authors: Biju Azariah M  , Arumugam Velappan
Published: November 2024

Background: Breast cancer is widely studied for its psychosomatic aspects owing to its high prevalence among women and the impact of chronic life stressors on its development and outcomes.
Aims and Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the association between previous chronic stressors and breast cancer diagnosis, duration of presentation to a health-care facility stage at presentation, tumor profile, treatment compliance, treatment-induced complications, and outcomes.
Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional observational study included 200 breast cancer patients. Patients were interviewed post-treatment to collect data on marital status, socioeconomic status, occupation, education, and emotional events, using the Holmes and Rahe stress scale. Scores were categorized as low-, medium-, or high-risk for disease development.
Results: Low-level chronic stress was the most prevalent in patients with stage I disease (93%), followed by stage II (87%), stage III (72%), and stage IV (52%). Moderate-level chronic stress increased with the disease stage, being the lowest in stage I (7%) and the highest in stage IV (48%), and this was significant (P=0.01). The median duration from symptom recognition to presentation was <4 weeks in 81–62% of patients with low and moderate stress, respectively. For those with moderate chronic stress, 62% presented within 4 weeks and 38% took >4 weeks, with a significant P=0.01.
Conclusion: Recognizing and addressing pre-diagnostic chronic stress is crucial for breast cancer management because it influences the cancer stage at diagnosis and the time of health-care presentation. Integrating psychosocial support into cancer care can improve treatment effectiveness and patient well-being.

Authors: Anushka Nag  , Bhaswati Ghoshal  , Meghna Siddhanta
Published: November 2024

Background: Perinatal asphyxia continues to be a leading cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality worldwide. It causes multiorgan failure with brain involvement as the major organ of concern (hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy). Cardiac dysfunction is also a feature of perinatal asphyxia.
Aims and Objectives: The study and to correlate cardiac dysfunction detected by cardiac biomarkers and echocardiography with the severity of perinatal asphyxia as graded by the Thompson score.
Materials and Methods: In this prospective observational study, babies with Apgar score <7 at 1 min received in the sick newborn care unit of a tertiary care hospital in West Bengal, India, were enrolled over 6 months. Thompson’s score was assessed on the 1st day with the estimation of creatine phosphokinase MB (CPK-MB) and troponin (Trn) T within 24 h of birth. Thompson score assessment was continued twice daily till discharge or death. Transthoracic echocardiography was done at the earliest within the 1st week.
Results: Of the 81 neonates enrolled, 28 neonates had cardiac dysfunction detected by positive Trn T and raised CPK-MB. Echocardiography showed 15 neonates (18.5%) had systolic dysfunction whereas 13 (16.0%) had tricuspid regurgitation. There was a strong association between Thompson score and Trn T and CPK-MB (rpb=0.85, rho=0.97, respectively, P≤0.001). Thompson score was highly sensitive and specific in detecting the need for mechanical ventilation, and fluid restriction in inotrope-resistant cardiac dysfunction (sensitivity 90%, 78.4%, respectively; and specificity 95.8%, 97.7%, respectively), in predicting initiation of feeding and final outcome (sensitivity 82.9% and 100%, respectively, specificity 97.8%, 89%, respectively).
Conclusion: Clinical assessment by the Thompson score can predict the degree of cardiac dysfunction, mechanical ventilation requirement, feed initiation, and final outcome in perinatal asphyxia.
COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF MODELS FOR FAKE NEWS DETECTION AND CLASSIFICATION USING GRU
Authors: Kovalenko Vitalii , Dorohyi Iaroslav , Doroshenko Katerina
Published: November 2024

The article presents a comparative analysis of models for detecting and classifying fake news using GRU (gated recurrent unit), a modern neural network architecture that serves as an alternative to LSTM. The aim of the study is to evaluate the efficiency of the GRU model in comparison with other popular natural language processing (NLP) models, such as BERT, RoBERTa, and LSTM, in the context of identifying fake news. The relevance of the topic is driven by the need for accurate and timely detection of disinformation in today’s information space, which significantly impacts societal processes and decision-making.
The research methodology is based on a comparative analysis using specific criteria. GRU, as a recurrent neural network, has a simpler architecture compared to LSTM, making it less resource-intensive while maintaining the ability to process long sequences of text. The main focus is on comparing the performance of GRU with other models in tasks related to fake news detection and classification, taking into account contextual processing capabilities.
The results of the comparative analysis show that GRU delivers competitive performance in terms of accuracy and training speed compared to LSTM and transformer-based models (BERT, RoBERTa), especially in resource-constrained environments. GRU proves effective when handling large volumes of text and analyzing complex contextual relationships. Due to its simpler architecture, GRU is a promising model for implementation in real-time fake news monitoring and detection systems.
The scientific novelty of the article lies in the exploration of GRU’s effectiveness compared to other NLP models for text classification tasks, which can improve disinformation identification processes. The practical significance of the study is that the results can serve as recommendations for selecting a specific class of models to solve various tasks when developing systems for combating fake news in different domains, including media, social networks, and analytical centers.

Representasi Peran Ibu dalam Drama Korea The good Bad Mother
Authors: Virdaus Dony Rano , Faricha Regga Ziyadatul , Hakim Lukman , Ardhinda Selvira Diva
Published: November 2024

The Korean drama The Good Bad Mother tells the story of a mother's role for her child in the absence of a husband. Thus, mothers have to play multiple roles in order to continue their lives. Therefore, this research attempts to reveal the representation of the roles played by mothers in the Korean drama The Good Bad Mother through symbols analysed using Roland Barthes' semiotic model. This research uses qualitative methods by observing and analysing symbols of the mother's role based on their denotative meaning, connotative meaning and myths. The results of this study show that the representation of the mother's role is in the form of; (1) Having a dual role. (2) Meeting the needs of body and mind. (3) Looking after and caring for the family with great patience. (4) Mother as protector. (5) Mother as a role model. (6) Mother as a source of love. The denotative meaning is reflected in the activities and dialogues of the actors, the connotative meaning is supported by the props used, the shooting techniques and the colouring of the video material, which also influences the atmosphere of the role played by the mother character. Meanwhile, the myth of a mother's role is represented by the mother's dual role, which is also motivated by economic, social and environmental conditions that force her to be both a mother and a father to her child, and shapes her character as a woman who loves her child fiercely.
“Por uma política externa de independência nacional” - Uma perspetiva realista sobre a política externa portuguesa durante a era Salazar (1933-1968)
Authors: Tavares João
Published: October 2024

Introdução: O fim da Primeira Guerra Mundial provocou uma mudança radical na ordem mundial caracterizada pela Pax Britannica, e como consequência das mudanças provocadas no sistema internacional, o comportamento dos Estados também se alterou. Metodología: Serão utilizadas as premissas desenvolvidas pelos principais teóricos da escola realista das Relações Internacionais. Objetivo: Pretendemos efectuar uma análise da política externa portuguesa durante a governação de Salazar, com recurso ao paradigma realista.  Análise: Além da aplicação do paradigma realista das Relações Internacionais, será necessário fazer uma descrição dos objetivos e interesse nacional de Portugal em política externa, para estabelecer se existe ou não racionalidade entre eles e o seu comportamento, tendo como propósito assegurar a sua sobrevivência no seio do sistema internacional hostil. Conclusão: Iremos verificar que existem diferentes configurações do sistema internacional antes e depois da Segunda Guerra Mundial, e que as respostas do governo de Salazar foram todas defensivas, no sentido de defender os interesses portugueses contra os interesses hostis de Estados terceiros, sempre na esteira do paradigma realista.
Changes in the conductivity of bilayer lipid membranes under the action of pluronics L61 and F68: Similarities and differences

Published: November 2024

The effect of pluronics L61 and F68 with the same length of hydrophobic poly(propylene oxide) blocks and different lengths of hydrophilic poly(ethylene oxide) blocks on the conductivity of planar bilayer lipid membranes made of azolectin was investigated. The integral conductivity of the membranes increases with increasing concentrations of both pluronics. With the same concentration of pluronics in solution, the conductivity for L61 is higher. According to the literature data [24]. At close concentrations of membrane-bound pluronics, membrane conductivities are also close. It was concluded that the appearance of identical hydrophobic parts of pluronics L61 and F68 in the membrane causes the same increase in conductivity in the first approximation. The shape of the conductivity-concentration curves is superlinear for L61 and sublinear for F68. In the presence of both pluronics, conduction spikes with an amplitude from 10 to 300 pSm and higher are observed for approximately 40% of the membranes. We associate the observed surges in conductivity with the appearance of conductive pores or defects in the membrane. The number of pores registered in the membrane was a random variable with a large variance and did not correlate with the concentration of pluronic. The difference between the average pore conductivities for membranes with L61 and F68 was not statistically significant.
Theoretical Approaches to Language Regimes
Authors: Tulum Andrey S.
Published: November 2024

The concept of language regime emerged in political science in the late 1980s. Due to the rise of ethnic conflicts and migration many European states faced, new challenges to language diversity management emerged while at international level a discussion about linguistic rights started. All these trends once again highlighted the political importance of language issues and an urgent need to investigate them by bringing together the approaches from different fields of science. Many researchers have made a significant contribution to interdisciplinary language policy studies over the last 20 years by applying methods from political science, sociolinguistics, law and economics. However, such a wide range of approaches has inevitably led to methodological problems, mostly concerned with different interpretations of notions that are grounded in more than one research field, e.g. ideology. As for language regimes, the debate lies in the separate use of this term that should not be considered equivalent to language policy regime or language policy. The article discusses the key approaches to language regimes in both political science and sociolinguistics and justifies the separate use of this notion for language policy research.

Elephant herding optimized features-based fast RCNN for classifying leukemia stages
Authors: Valiaveetil Della Reasa , T Kanimozhi
Published: November 2024

BACKGROUND:

Leukemia is a cancer that develops in the bone marrow and blood that is brought on by an excessive generation of abnormal white blood cells. This disease damages deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), which is associated with immature cells, particularly white blood cells. It is time-consuming and requires enhanced accuracy for radiologists to diagnose acute leukemia cells.

OBJECTIVE:

To overcome this issue, we have studied the use of a novel proposed LEU-EHO NET.

METHODS:

LEU-EHO NET has been proposed for classifying blood smear images based on leukemia-free and leukemia-infected images. Initially, the input blood smear images are pre-processed using two techniques: normalization and cropping black edges in images. The pre-processed images are then subjected to MobileNet for feature extraction. After that, Elephant Herding Optimization (EHO) is used to select the relevant feature from the retrieved characteristics. Finally, Faster RCNN is trained with the selected features to perform the classification task and discriminate between Normal and Abnormal.

RESULTS:

The total accuracy of the proposed LEU-EHO NET is 99.30%. The proposed LEU-EHO NET model enhances the overall accuracy by 0.69%, 16.21%, 1.10%, 1.71%, and 1.38% better than Inception v3 XGBoost, VGGNet, DNN, SVM and MobilenetV2 respectively.

CONCLUSION:

The approach needs to be improved so that overlapped cells can be segmented more accurately. Additionally, future work might improve classification accuracy by utilizing different deep learning models.
A Convergence Not Metrizable
Authors: Rivera Luis
Published: November 2024

Certain notions of convergence of sequences of functions such as convergence pointwise, uniform and parts (compact sets or bounded sets) come from suitable topological functional spaces{m/1/}. Under certain conditions these topologies involved are metrizable, which in an advantage since there is an extensive theory on convergence in metric spaces. However, the case of pointwise convergence is delicate, since it is shown that under certain hypothesis this form of convergence of sequences of functions is not equivalent to convergence in metric.

ABSTRACT Parenting involves warm, sensitive, and accepting behaviors, emphasizing the importance of cooperation between fathers and mothers. A lack of father involvement can affect a child's behavior, social development, and academic performance. This study adopts a qualitative approach using phenomenological methods, employing in-depth interviews to collect data from male participants who have children and reside in Malang. The results indicate that father involvement in parenting significantly impacts children's moral, emotional, and academic development. This research classifies fathering styles into three types: delegation, participation, and collaboration. Each type has a different approach to supporting children's education and decision-making. These findings are expected to pave the way for further research on the role of fathers in the family and its implications for child development.
Abstrak: Pengasuhan melibatkan perilaku yang hangat, sensitif, dan penuh penerimaan serta pentingnya kerjasama antara ayah dan ibu. Kurangnya keterlibatan ayah dapat mempengaruhi prilaku anak, perkembangan sosial serta akademis mereka. Penelitian ini mengadopsi pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode fenomenologi, menggunakan wawancara mendalam untuk mengumpulkan data dari partisipan dengan kriteria laki-laki dewasa yang memiliki anak dan berdomisili Malang. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa keterlibatan ayah dalam pengasuhan anak memberikan pengaruh signifikan terhadap perkembangan moral, emosional, dan akademis anak. Penelitian ini mengklasifikasikan tipe pola pengasuhan ayah menjadi tiga: delegasi, partisipasi, dan kolaborasi. Setiap tipe memiliki pendekatan berbeda dalam mendukung pendidikan dan pengambilan keputusan anak. Temuan ini diharapkan dapat membuka jalan bagi penelitian lebih lanjut mengenai peran ayah dalam keluarga dan implikasinya terhadap perkembangan anak.
Anthropogenic transformation of the vegetation cover of the Irtysh River floodplain

Published: November 2024

The article considers the current state of the vegetation cover of the Irtysh River floodplain within its flat steppe section (Pavlodar Priirtyshye) under the conditions of anthropogenic transformation of the hydrological regime. A description of the landscape confinement of the main classes of floodplain vegetation formations is given. The main factors of anthropogenic impact on the vegetation cover in the form of grazing, recreation, haymaking, fires, littering with solid household waste, etc. Criteria and indicators of disturbance are developed. A description of the botanical biodiversity with an analysis of the economic spectrum of the flora (forage, medicinal, food, honey plants, poisonous, ornamental, technical plant species) is provided. The territory's flora contains 9 species listed in the Red Book, however, during the field survey, only Stipa pennata L. was noted. The eight main threats to botanical biodiversity are described: changes in the hydrological regime of the river; cattle grazing on the floodplain meadows; spring burning of dry grass; grazing and watering of cattle on the river bank; creation dams; illegal collection of ornamental red-listed plants; plowing of steppe landscapes on floodplain terraces; anthropogenic invasion of alien flora. Based on the analysis of geobotanical descriptions, phytoindicators of environmental conditions (moisture, salinization, chemical and mechanical composition of the soil, grazing load, etc.) for this region were identified. Recommendations are proposed to reduce the negative anthropogenic impact, preserve species and coenotic biodiversity, and methods for restoring disturbed areas in the context of climate change and modern transboundary use of the Irtysh River.

Antibiotic resistance is a global health problem around the world and is a type of antimicrobial resistance. Solving it requires concerted efforts on a global scale. The main antibiotic-resistant microorganisms are Enterococcus spp., Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumonia, Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Helicobacter pylori. Many countries have programs aimed at preventing the development of antibiotic resistance, as well as stimulating the development of new drugs with antimicrobial activity. Many scientific works are devoted to this topic. The rational use of available antimicrobial drugs, considering the spectrum of their activity and the antibiotic resistance profile of the main pathogens, is becoming increasingly necessary. The purpose of this study was to examine interventions aimed at combating the growing antibiotic resistance in the world. The basic principles of the development of these problems and mechanisms of antibiotic resistance are shown. The mechanism is mainly associated with the evolution of microorganisms of a phenotypic and genetic nature. An analysis of antibiotic-resistant strains was carried out, their characteristics were given, and methods for studying antibiotic resistance to antibacterial drugs were reflected. The diffusion method and the dilution method for assessing sensitivity are described. The problem of antibiotic resistance has been confirmed by many studies in various departments, especially surgical ones and in intensive care units. In Kazakhstan, the main antibiotic-resistant pathogens are considered Acinetobacter spp., Enterococcus spp., Haemophilus influenza, Pseudomonas spp., streptococci, staphylococci and enterobacteriae. The main measures to prevent this problem are control over the use of antibiotics, the development of new drugs, namely new antibiotics and bacterial lysates based on thtse microorganisms.

Bovine viral diarrhea (BVD) is the most common infectious disease of cattle and is registered in many countries of the world. The disease causes significant economic damage to livestock, primarily due to a decrease in the reproductive capacity of infected animals. Infection of cattle during pregnancy results in transmission of the infection to the fetus, which can lead to embryonic death or the birth of persistently infected (PI) calves. PI-animals excrete BVDV in their feces and secretions throughout their lives, which is why they are the main pathway of transmission of the virus. Moreover, acute BVDV infection leads to transient viremia and immunosuppression, resulting in an increase in secondary infections. In recent years, outbreaks of BVD cattle have been reported in several regions of Russia and China bordering Kazakhstan, indicating a high risk of introducing the infection into the country. Although Kazakhstan is officially considered free from BVD cattle, there is ample evidence that this infection is present in many regions of the country. However, the lack of a clear understanding of the epizootic situation in the country in terms of BVD cattle does not allow the full use of effective control measures, such as total vaccination of livestock in regions at risk of infection. This article provides data on the epizootic situation in Kazakhstan on BVD cattle, as well as an epidemiological analysis of the risks of the spread of BVD cattle in the country.
How Do Fitness Tax Credits Affect Children's Physical Activity Levels? Evidence from Canada
Authors: Gamino Aaron M.
Published: November 2024

In this article, the author analyzes data on children's fitness tax credits and tax rates across Canadian provinces to assess whether tax liability reductions for taxpayers claiming these credits have a positive impact on children's physical activity levels. Using Canadian survey data from 2001 to 2014, the author finds no evidence that fitness tax credits spur an aggregate increase in physical activity levels or improve self-reported health. However, he finds some evidence that children's fitness tax credits increase activity among children in the top 40 percent of households based on income. Despite the substantial costs in forgone government tax revenue, children's fitness tax credits appear to be ineffective in improving children's average physical activity levels.
