Alexey Tolstoy’s Novel Peter the Great: Historical Reality and Fiction
Authors: Aristov Vadim V.
Published: August 2024

The article considers the description of the Petrine epoch in the novel Peter the Great from the historical accuracy point of view. A number of inconsistencies that were made by A.N. Tolstoy are noted, e. g., the episode when Peter the Great allows himself to spit a bone at K. Kruys. In reality such a scene could not have happened. The image of Charles XII in the novel is considered in detail. Memories of contemporaries, materials of biographers testify to the Swedish king as a reserved and modest man who always respected his surroundings. In the novel Tolstoy creates the opposite image, partly endowing Charles XII with some features of the Russian Emperor Peter I. The author of the article also points out a number of inaccuracies made by the writer in the scenes of the first siege of Narva. Nevertheless, a number of Tolstoy’s mistakes are a consequence of inaccurate data, which he took from historians’ books published at the time of writing the novel. It can be argued that sometimes Tolstoy’s narrative is historically more truthful than the account of the same events in the books by many historians, e. g., the description of the departure of Peter the Great on the eve of the approach of Swedish troops led by King Charles and the tragedy of the Russian army during the battle of Narva on November 19, 1700.

Published: August 2024

The article focuses on one of the central episodes of the second book of A.N. Tolstoy’s novel Peter the Great — the Battle of Narva, as well as the main historical sources that became the basis for the depiction of this scene by the writer. One of the first battles of the Northern War was not successful for the army of Peter the Great, but it became the subject of the writer’s careful research. The article also makes a textual analysis of the most illustrative examples of scenes from the novel in comparison with N.G. Ustryalov’s The History of the Reign of Peter the Great and S.M. Solovyov’s The History of Russia since Ancient Times. The novelty of the article includes a comprehensive analysis of these works, as well as finding fragments, which became the basis for the depiction of these scenes by A.N. Tolstoy. The specific examples from the texts are given. As a result, the conclusion is made concerning author’s careful work with historical sources based on the writer’s marks in these books, as well as the creative work of the writer.

“I Know That You Are One of The Main Writers of The New Generation” (Letter from the French Actress Andrée Ducret to Alexey Tolstoy)
Authors:   A.M. Gorky Institute of World Literature of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Pogorelskaia Elena I.
Published: August 2024

The letter of the French actress Andrée Ducret (1902–1982) to A.N. Tolstoy dated October 1, 1928 and kept in the Department of Manuscript Collections of the V.I. Dahl State Museum of Fine Arts, opens a previously unknown contact of the writer during his exile in Paris and adds curious details concerning his life in the French capital in 1919–1921. This document reveals a number of details about the biography of the actress herself: her performances on the stage of Théâtre Antoine in Paris in the summer of 1920, acquaintance with Vasily Vyrubov and Isaac Babel, membership in the Communist Party of France since 1923. Important in the letter is the mentioning of enthusiastic reviews of Tolstoy’s works in the Humanité newspaper, an article Soviet Literature in 1927 probably printed on November 14, 1927 where there is a fragment devoted to Tolstoy and his novel The Eighteenth Year.
Aproximações - Arqueologias e Psicofisiologia: Freud, Nietzsche e as transposições sobre o bem e mal-estar na vida docente
Authors: Cilento Angela
Published: August 2024

À luz de algumas ideias de Freud e Nietzsche pretendemos criar algumas transposições que nos ajudam a pensar sobre o bem ou mal-estar docente, ressaltando que estes estados de ânimo não estão dissociados de nossa condição humana, nem apartados das políticas públicas que norteiam as diretrizes da educação e do status do ofício docente em nosso país. Buscamos extrair destes teóricos da cultura algumas ideias-chave: a arqueologia da cidade de Roma realizada por Freud em  O Mal-estar da Civilização para refletirmos sobre aquilo que nos edifica enquanto docentes. No segundo momento, discorremos sobre a fisiopsicologia nietzschiana pois a maneira como olhamos para o mundo e para a docência, determinará, em última análise, o nosso bem ou mal-estar. Por fim, ainda resgatando as ideias do pensador alemão em Assim Falou Zaratustra, encontraremos algumas fontes de inspiração em busca do nosso bem-estar.
Mal-estar de professores e pandemia: um espaço de escuta frente à morte na escola
Authors: Carneiro Cristiana , Scrinzi Mariana , Scherer Larissa Costa Beber , Souza Lila
Published: August 2024

Os tempos pandêmicos forçaram a escola em relação ao encontro com a morte. Cenas narradas ou encenadas convocaram os educadores a se confrontarem com os desdobramentos desse encontro disruptivo. Coube aos professores se ocuparem dos efeitos mortíferos produzidos pela pandemia de Covid-19. Diante da morte, o silêncio costuma ser uma saída e, em relação aos educadores, não saber sobre o que fazer com ela na escola produz mal-estar, pois educar supõe uma posição de saber a ser sustentada. A partir de fragmentos das falas de educadoras da Educação Infantil, da entrevista com a diretora e coordenadora de uma escola pública da região serrana do Rio de Janeiro, questionamos se a intensificação do mal-estar vivido durante o período pandêmico poderia impactar nas formas de saber fazer com o mortífero que se presentificou no encontro com as crianças.Os espaços de escuta ocorreram no retorno das aulas presenciais, no início do ano de 2022, no formato de rodas de conversa, em uma pesquisa-intervenção. A possibilidade de colocar em palavras o vivido na escola possibilitou aos educadores reservar um lugar para a morte, ao invés de suprimi-la, oferecendo espaço para o não saber e a dúvida.

Objective: We aimed to assess the feasibility, clinical accuracy, and acceptance of a hospital-wide continuous glucose monitor (CGM) policy with electronic health record (EHR)-integrated validation for insulin dosing.

Research Design and Methods: A hospital policy was developed and implemented at Stanford Health Care for using personal CGMs in lieu of fingerstick blood glucose (FSBG) monitoring. It included requirements specific to each CGM, accuracy monitoring protocols, and EHR integration. User experience surveys were conducted among a subset of patients and nurses.

Results: From November 2022 to August 2023, 135 patients used the CGM protocol in 185 inpatient encounters. This included 26% non-English speakers, 27% with type 1 diabetes, and 23% with automated insulin delivery systems. Most used CGMs were Dexcom G6 (44%) and Libre 2 (42%). Of 1506 CGM validation attempts, 87.8% met the /20 criteria for CGM-based insulin dosing and 99.3% fell within Clarke Zones A or B. User experience surveys were completed by 27 nurses and 46 patients. Most nurses found glucose management under the protocol effective (74%), easy to use (67%), and efficient (63%); 80% of nurses preferred inpatient CGM to FSBG. Most patients liked the CGM protocol (63%), reported positive CGM interactions with nursing staff (63%), and felt no significant interruptions to their diabetes management (63%).

Conclusions: Implementation of a hospital-wide inpatient CGM policy supporting multiple CGM types with real-time accuracy monitoring and integration into the EHR is feasible. Initial feedback from nurses and patients was favorable, and further investigation toward broader use and sustainability is needed.

Published: August 2024

This case presents a 35-year-old male with spinal predominant neurofibromatosis-1 who developed an incomplete spinal cord injury (C3 Asia C) which did not improve despite urgent decompressive surgery for multiple cervical neurofibromas. This report outlines a novel indication for intrathecal baclofen. The patient suffered from lower limb weakness with severe spasticity and required assistance of at least two for all activities. The aim of rehabilitation was to improve overall tone while focusing on independence, mobility and quality of life. After a successful trial of intrathecal baclofen, he underwent implantation of an intrathecal baclofen pump. The dose was gradually increased while he received a progressive programme of stretching and functional rehabilitation therapy. After 6 weeks, his MAS had improved to 1–2/4 and he had progressed to independent transfers, independence for most activities of daily living and was able to discharge to his family home with minimal support.

Published: August 2024

The pursuit of diverse formats and content in children’s literature is an ever-expanding effort aimed at better serving the diverse spectrum of children in learning environments. Multisensory learning, especially in the context of multisensory reading, offers substantial potential to enrich the learning experiences of diverse children. Concurrently, gender emerges as a significant variable influencing multisensory engagement. When examining children’s literature, we delve into the importance of its content and the need for diverse representation. This scoping review focuses on gender as a central reference point and systematically explores the existing literature concerning multisensory texts (n = 5), gender-diverse texts (n = 26) and their intersection. Through both quantitative and qualitative reporting, this review provides a comprehensive overview of the characteristics and emerging themes within the included studies, which investigate the concepts of gender, multisensory reading and texts, and gender-diverse texts in early childhood education and care (ECEC) and school settings published between 2000 and 2023.

Skin diseases are among the most common diseases found in developing countries, and it is very commonly encountered especially in children living in groups. This study aimed to identify the ten most common skin diseases in two public boarding schools in West Java and the environmental factors that influence them. This study was part of large scabies and pediculosis study in two public boarding schools on 2018 in West Java. Diagnosis was made through history taking and physical examination using Deskabâ instrument. The results showed that 93% of children had skin diseases. Skin diseases were found to be higher in girls (94.5%) than in boys (91.1%), but no significant differences (p= 0.08) were obtained. The most common skin diseases were pediculosis (50.14%), scabies (40.51%), dermatitis (8.15%), dermatophytosis (6.6%), insect bite hypersensitivity (6.18%), post-inflammatory hypo/hyperpigmentation (4.92%), acne vulgaris (3.51%), miliaria (3.37%), xerosis cutis (2.25%), and folliculitis (1.83%). Some environmental factors might influence the incidence of infectious skin diseases in public boarding schools, such as open-space areas, the number of bedrooms, and the number of individuals occupying each bedroom.

Authors: Ridwan Fanny Riana , Yusuf Bagus Baskoro , Rahardjo Harrina Erlianti
Published: August 2024

Bladder pain syndrome (BPS) causes decreased mental and physical quality of life. The diagnosis and treatment of BPS must be made effective; however, the treatment of BPS was still not satisfactory for most patients. Two cases of BPS were presented to the urology clinic and were treated with a combination of hydrodistention and intravesical hyaluronic acid (HA) periodically. After 3-8 hydrodistension and hyaluronic acid instillation, the patients showed symptom improvement indicated by O’Leary Sant Questionnaire (symptom score 19-21 before treatment became 3-4 after treatment, problem score 8-16 before treatment became 0-2 after treatment), visual analogue scale (7-10 before treatment to 3-4 after treatment), and the global response assessment (GRA) scale were markedly improved. Both patients had glomerulations during cystoscopy, and the second had Hunner Lesion. A pathological examination of bladder biopsy specimens indicated acute and chronic inflammatory cell infiltration. The combination of hydrodistention and intravesical HA was beneficial for treating BPS in this study. Further study such as a clinical trial is needed to prove the efficacy and safety of this treatment.

Authors: Gulo Trimodesman Hardinsyah , Sari Devni Prima
Published: August 2024

Indonesia's rapid economic growth in the global business sector has intensified competition among entrepreneurs, necessitating stringent control over product quality for companies to sustain their market position. This study utilizes the Taguchi method and Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to enhance quality control processes. The Taguchi method focuses on offline quality control with a single response, while PCA is employed for multiple responses. Experiments were conducted at Pabrik Tahu Alami, examining four factors: soybean rate, soaking time, boiling time, and whey water rate, each at three levels. The optimal combination determined was 3 kg of soybeans (level 1), 4 hours of soaking time (level 1), 20 minutes of boiling time (level 2), and 5 litres of whey water (level 2). These results provide a robust framework for optimizing product quality in similar production settings.

Authors:   University of Bristol, A Al Mallak Khalid , A. Beach Mark ,   University of Bristol, H. Loh Tian ,   National Physical Laboratory (NPL) Taddington, UK
Published: August 2024

This research paper addresses the difficulties associated with integrating millimeter wave (mm-wave) frequency into 5G communication systems, particularly the attenuation of signals when mobile phones are used near the human body. The study examines the impact of a human body on the received signal at a frequency of 26GHz, both in a static and walking scenario. Measurements were conducted in an anechoic chamber and a laboratory environment to analyse these effects. The researchers also explore potential solutions, such as adjusting antenna heights and implementing multiple access points with steerable beamwidth, to mitigate attenuation. The findings demonstrate that these measures can effectively reduce attenuation. Ultimately, the study concludes that while mm-wave technology offers high data rates and low latency, careful consideration must be given to human body blockage and attenuation when deploying it in various environments.

About the Situation in the Akmola Outer District of the Omsk Region in the 30s of the 19th Century
Authors: Prokhorov Igor R.
Published: August 2024

The article deals with the problematic issues of administrative-territorial transformations in the pre-revolutionary Omsk region, carried out in accordance with the “Charter on the Siberian Kirghiz” adopted in 1822. In particular, we are talking about the creation of external districts of the Omsk region, designed to ensure the establishment of the Russian administration in the Kazakh steppe of the Middle Zhuz after the abolition of the khan's power in this region and the introduction of elected government. The creation of the outer districts provoked opposition and an uprising of part of the local nobility and population, led by the descendants of Khan Abylai. It is noted that one of the main reasons for administrative innovations was the need to respect Russia's economic interests in the region, including the safe conduct of trade caravans to the countries of Central Asia.

Published: August 2024

Falling is one of the most critical outcomes of loss of consciousness during triage in emergency department (ED). It is an important sign requires an immediate medical intervention. This paper presents a computer vision-based fall detection model in ED. In this study, we hypothesis that the proposed vision-based triage fall detection model provides accuracy equal to traditional triage system (TTS) conducted by the nursing team. Thus, to build the proposed model, we use MoveNet, a pose estimation model that can identify joints related to falls, consisting of 17 key points. To test the hypothesis, we conducted two experiments: In the deep learning (DL) model we used the complete feature consisting of 17 keypoints which was passed to the triage fall detection model and was built using Artificial Neural Network (ANN). In the second model we use dimensionality reduction Feature-Reduction for Fall model (FRF), Random Forest (RF) feature selection analysis to filter the key points triage fall classifier. We tested the performance of the two models using a dataset consisting of many images for real-world scenarios classified into two classes: Fall and Not fall. We split the dataset into 80% for training and 20% for validation. The models in these experiments were trained to obtain the results and compare them with the reference model. To test the effectiveness of the model, a t-test was performed to evaluate the null hypothesis for both experiments. The results show FRF outperforms DL model, and FRF has same accuracy of TTS.
Research on fire hazard assessment of metro baggage based on improved hierarchical analysis
Authors: Zhang Zhiming , Ee Jonathan Yong Chung , Chan Jinyuan , Wan Siuhong , Peng Cong , Yang Xiaoqing , Li Bo
Published: August 2024

Underground station passenger flow is large, the number of parcels carried by passengers is large and varied, and the parcels carried have an impact on the fire hazard and evacuation of the station. In order to determine the weights of the passenger luggage risk and environmental factor index system in the fire risk evaluation of underground stations in a more realistic way, an optimized and improved hierarchical analysis method for determining the judgement matrix is proposed, which improves the traditional nine-scaled method and adopts the three-scaled method for the four major categories of luggage, namely, handbags, rucksacks, portable power tools and trolley cases. The advantage of this method is that there is no need for consistency judgement in determining packages with a wide range of types and uncertain contents, thus simplifying the calculation. Meanwhile, the reasonableness and reliability of the method is verified by combining it with an actual metro station fire risk assessment system.

Published: August 2024

OBJECTIVE

To investigate safety and effectiveness of velagliflozin oral solution as sole therapy in naïve and previously insulin-treated diabetic cats.

ANIMALS

252 client-owned cats receiving ≥ 2 doses of velagliflozin; 214 (85%) naïve diabetics and 38 (15%) insulin-treated diabetics.

PROCEDURES

Prospective, baseline-controlled, open-label clinical field trial. Cats received velagliflozin orally, once daily. Physical examinations and blood collections were performed days 0, 3, 7, 30, 60, 120, and 180.

RESULTS

Data are median (range). Screening blood glucose (BG) was 436 mg/dL (272 to 676 mg/dL). On days 30, 60, 120, and 180, single BG after receiving velagliflozin was 153 mg/dL (62 to 480 mg/dL), 134 mg/dL (64 to 414 mg/dL), 128 mg/dL (55 to 461 mg/dL), and 125 mg/dL (77 to 384 mg/dL), respectively. Screening fructosamine was 538 µmol/L (375 to 794 µmol/L). On the same recheck days, fructosamine was 310 µmol/L (204 to 609 µmol/L), 286 µmol/L (175 to 531 µmol/L), 269 µmol/L (189 to 575 µmol/L), and 263 µmol/L (203 to 620 µmol/L). At day 180, 81% of 158 cats remaining had BG and/or fructosamine within reference ranges; 88.6% (124 of 140) and 87.7% (121 of 138) showed improvement in polyuria and polydipsia, respectively. Ketonuria developed in 35 cats (13.9%), including 18 (7.1%) that had ketoacidosis. Ketoacidosis was less common in naïve diabetic cats (11 of 214 [5.1%]) compared to insulin-treated diabetic cats (7 of 38 [18.4%]). At ketoacidosis diagnosis, 14 of 18 cats (77.8%) were euglycemic (ie, BG < 250 mg/dL). Most episodes of ketosis or ketoacidosis (30 of 35 [85.7%]) occurred within the first 14 days of treatment. Insulin-treated diabetic cats were less likely to complete the trial. No clinical hypoglycemia occurred.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE

Velagliflozin improved glycemic parameters and clinical signs in diabetic cats. Velagliflozin provides an alternative to insulin as a stand-alone treatment of diabetic cats.
Social care work and social work in Ireland: a comparative analysis of standards of proficiency
Authors: Róiste Áine de , Mulkeen Majella , Flynn Susan , Conroy Sandra
Published: August 2024

This article provides a timely intervention to debates and scholarship about the professional regulation of social work and social care. In Ireland, the recent commencement of the statutory regulation of social care by CORU – Ireland’s multi-professional health regulator – offers a watershed opportunity for learning. Social work has been separately regulated by CORU for over a decade, while the social care work register opened in November 2023. We conduct a comparative content analysis of the standards of proficiency for social work and for social care work. Albeit with different historical origins, regulation has now provided these professions with distinctive, as well as shared professional ‘benchmarks’, that may shape the trajectories of their future roles and training. We consider the approach CORU takes to regulation, in terms of the standards and how these differentiate or align the two professions. The novel contribution of the paper lies in its key findings. Namely, that: the format of the standards of proficiency framework itself warrants further consideration; insufficient attention is paid to empathy and emotions across standards; there is an absence of a considered approach to the influence of socio-economic factors on practice; there are variations in the emphasis placed on relational versus socio-political dimensions in practice; and finally, there are differences in the importance paid to ‘critical understanding’ across the standards. These areas particularly illuminate how CORU frames and interprets the nature of both professions. It is concluded that the standards of proficiency for both social care work and social work have much shared terrain, interspersed with infrequent but striking differences, indicative of the many commonalities and overlap in occupational spheres for both professions.

Published: August 2024

Objective: This research aims to formulate the accounting cycle for rice in Indonesia, facilitating the resolution of complex issues in rice management and finance from upstream to downstream. Stakeholders, especially the Indonesian government, can utilize appropriate policies to enhance rice management and accounting practices.
 
Theoretical Framework: Addressing the rice issue in Indonesia requires systematic policy interventions to serve as solutions for farmers' challenges. This study will delve into the complexity of these issues using the concept of (Purnamasari et al., 2023), encompassing land area, seed costs, and labor costs as determinants of technical efficiency. It expands on (Purnamasari et al., 2023), analyzing it from an accounting perspective.
 
Method: Employing a phenomenological approach, the researcher conducts observations and direct interviews with a selection of farmers, utilizing ethnographic methods to map out the rice management system in Indonesia.
 
Results and Discussion: The researcher successfully formulates the accounting cycle for rice, offering a comprehensive solution for rice management in Indonesia. The rice accounting cycle comprises seedling, land processing, planting and maintenance, and harvesting and distribution phases.
 
Research Implications: The government plays a pivotal role in implementing the Management Control System (MCS) for the rice accounting cycle to improve farmers' welfare and ensure rice self-sufficiency from production to distribution.
 
Originality/Value: This research is the first to comprehensively examine rice management and accounting practices in Indonesia. Previous studies have been partial in their approach, thus failing to provide effective solutions for rice management and accounting in the country.

Authors: Mascarenhas Vitor Souza Pinto , Siman Renato Ribeiro , Yamane Luciana Harue
Published: August 2024

Objective: Evaluate the willingness to pay (WTP) for Domestic Solid Waste management services in residential buildings in Vitória-ES, as well as to estimate their financial impact within the Solid Waste Management (SWM).
 
Theoretical Framework: The demand for the universalization of SWM services compromises the municipal budget, and it is essential to evaluate new charging strategies to guarantee economic and financial sustainability.
 
Method: Through the application of a questionnaire, the Contingent Valuation Method (CVM) was used, as well as a case study in the city of Vitória/ES.
 
Results and Discussion: 58% of residents were willing to pay for SWM services, with an average monthly value of US$5.95 per household unit and stated that promoting information about the service would promote an 48% increase in this value. If classified as large generators, the transfer of responsibility for waste management in condominiums with more than 46 apartments, could relieve almost 19% of the entire cost of SWM services in the city of Vitória.
 
Research Implications: It is evident the need to improve SWM charging policies for large generators, such as residential buildings, which can consider political and regulatory aspects, the WTP of the target audience, as well as information dissemination and social mobilization.
 
Originality/Value: The research results contribute to expanding the modalities of charging policies for SWM services, with the classification of residential condominiums as large generators.

Object: in these last two decades, emotional intelligence has been considered a very important factor for students, professionals in any field of the public and private sectors, even more so if it is indicated that it is the basis for being successful in life. Furthermore, when it comes to management, I am curious to know how university managers are managing. Therefore, it is necessary to know the Determine the relationship between management and emotional intelligence in the managers of private universities in a province of San Martín.
 
Theoretical framework: It focuses on knowing how management and emotional intelligence are occurring in private universities and whether the degree of variability in order to be considered in the actions of professionals who have positions of trust.
 
Method: basic type with quantitative approach, non-experimental design and correlational scope.
 
Results and conclusions: the level of management of the managers is good, with 72%. The level of emotional intelligence is average at 66.7%. It was concluded that the correlation is very low with a negative direction of -0.39, with a significance of 0.879; Therefore, in the face of a higher p-value (0.879> 0.05) with a bilateral test, the alternative hypothesis is rejected and it is accepted that there is no significant relationship between management and emotional intelligence of the directors of private universities.
 
Implications of the researc: with this research it has been shown that the management carried out by managers is not associated with emotional intelligence. Therefore, just because managers perform good management does not necessarily indicate that they have a high level of emotional intelligence.
