Published: October 2023

Acute coronary syndromes (ACS) are common diseases and one of the most common causes of death in the world. The most feared ACS is ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Approximately 50% of STEMI patients have lesions in multivessel disease (MVD), and this is associated with poor outcomes. In this study, we aimed to evaluate prognostic nutritional index (PNI) in patients with STEMI and MVD. 1708 patients diagnosed with STEMI were included in the study. The patients' blood parameters, electrocardiography and echocardiography findings, coronary angiography images were recorded and calculations were made. The mean follow-up period was 38.8±10.3 months. The mean age of 1708 patients was 56.7±12.3 years, and 1370 (80.2) of the patients were male. Lower PNI was associated with MVD (+). Mortality was observed more in the MVD (+) group (p

A Recommendation System Involving a Hybrid Approach of Student Review and Rating for an Educational Video
Authors: Hazar Manar Joundy , Zrigui Salah , Maraoui Mohsen , Zrigui Mounir , Nicolas Henri
Published: October 2023

Video recommendation systems in e-learning platforms are a specific type of recommendation system that uses algorithms to suggest educational videos to students based on their interests and preferences. Student’s written feedback or reviews can provide more details about the educational video, including its strengths and weaknesses. In this paper, we build an education video recommender system based on learners’ reviews. we use LDA topic model on textual data extracted from educational videos to train language models as an input to supervised CNN model. Additionally, we used latent factor model to extract the educational videos' features and learner preferences from learners’ historical data (ratings and reviews) as an output CNN model. In our proposed technique, we use hybrid user ratings and reviews to tackle sparsity and cold start problem in the recommender system. Our recommender uses user review to suggest new recommended videos, but in case there is no review (empty cell in matrix factorization) or unclear comment then we will take user rating on that educational video. We worked on real-world big and diverse learning courses and video content datasets from Coursera. Results show that new prediction ratings from learners' reviews can be used to make good new recommendations about videos that have not been previously seen and reduce cold start and sparsity problem effects.
Facial Myositis: A Very Rare Syphilitic Symptom
Authors: Kediha Mohamed Islam , Mostefaoui Farida , Ali Pacha Lamia
Published: October 2023

Introduction: Myositis is an inflammation of striated muscle tissue. Among its causes, autoimmune diseases are the main ones. However, infectious causes are also incriminated, such as Coxsackie B virus epidemic myositis. Treponemal myositis or syphilitic myositis is, however, exceptional. Its localization or predominance on the facial muscles is even rarer. Case Presentation: We report a case of a facial form of syphilitic myositis with clinical and radiological study in a 25-year-old patient of Malian origin, presented to the neurology department with a painful facial diplegia that had been evolving for one month. Infectious myositis is a rare entity. Its symptomatology (myalgia/muscle weakness) may be diffuse or localized, as in the case of our patient. The infectious syndrome may be absent and limited to a flu-like syndrome. Furthermore, direct involvement of a skeletal muscle is rarely reported in the literature. The evolutionary profile is, therefore, little known. Conclusions: Syphilitic myositis can have complex clinical aspects and constitute a real diagnostic challenge, as reported in our patient's case.

Introduction: Enterobacter sakazakii is considered a rare yet extremely important cause of enterocolitis and may lead to a necrotizing condition. Central nervous system and blood infections with this type of organism will be fatal, with a mortality rate of as much as 40 - 80%. Case Presentation: Our case report is a 31-month-old boy with a history of posterior urethral valves surgery presented to the emergency department with a history of dysuria, dribbling, and a 24-hour history of fever, chill, and anorexia. The case had a urinary tract infection diagnosis with E. sakazakii. Conclusions: E. sakazakii can cause bacteremia, meningitis, and necrotizing enterocolitis, but E. sakazakii causes rare literature about urinary tract infection (UTI). We have reported a rare Enterobacter sakazakii infection in the present study.

Authors: Osqueizadeh Reza , Mohseni Bandpei Mohammad Ali , Rahmani Nahid , Goudarzi Hamidreza , Ebadi Abbas
Published: October 2023

Context: Defined by several physiological and anatomical contributors, posture is essentially an accurate indicator of health status that is most frequently highlighted by affecting the configuration and operations of internal systems and organs. Quantifying body position has always been highlighted in clinical, academic, and industrial contexts, and various posture analysis approaches have been developed throughout the years. Objectives: This study aims to establish the reliability and validity of several novel observational approaches to postural load assessment and provide an overall view of related trends. Methods: This review was designed and conducted following (PRISMA) guidelines and five databases were surveyed, namely PubMed, Science Direct, CINAHL, Ergonomic Abstracts, and EMBASE, utilizing both generic and specific search terms modified for each database. Articles introducing a novel approach to observational postural load analysis and concepts of reliability and validity of the introduced method were included. Cross-sectional, case-control, experimental, and controlled trial designs were considered. Studies were excluded if they were exclusively based on subjective approaches. The methodological quality of the studies was evaluated using the MacDermid checklist. Similarly, reliability, measurement error, content validity, and criterion validity were assessed using COSMIN (Consensus-based Standards for selecting health Measurement Instruments) boxes B, C, D, and H, respectively. Results: Twenty-five articles were selected for the final review. The studies mainly reported ICC for reliability and r and r2 for validity. The results on the MacDermid quality evaluation tool varied from 38 to 80%, with a mean of 61.60 ± 11.54%. Regarding the COSMIN checklists, the scores were 61.40 ± 10.39%, 59.16 ± 11.35%, 64 ± 16.07%, and 57.12 ± 15.19% for boxes B, C, D, and H, respectively. Some studies did not obtain high scores for specified inclusion and exclusion criteria and appropriate sample size, leading to a moderate quality rating in checklists. Conclusions: Drawing comprehensive conclusions by directly comparing and contrasting observational techniques can be challenging due to their unique strengths, limitations, and inconsistencies. Such variations may arise from the methods’ characteristics, such as the fields, settings, populations, and the evaluated risk factors.
A Rare Case of Urachal Remnant with Calculus Just Above the Bladder
Authors: Mirsani Amin , Dana Mohammad Amin , Sajjadi Seyed Hadi , Baradaran Raheleh
Published: October 2023

: The urachus closes naturally after birth. Its opening leads to anomalies in which secondary complications, including urachus calculi, may be formed. This disease is often discovered incidentally in radiographic examinations and is rare in adults. The purpose of this study is to present a rare case of urachus calculus in an adult located precisely in the anterior wall of the bladder, at the junction of the bladder and urachus. Our case was a 38-year-old man with complaints of abdominal pain. The computerized tomography (CT) scan images showed a calculus attached to the anterior and inner wall of the bladder in inserting the urachus into the bladder. Cystoscopy showed the calculus is connected to the urachus duct without any mass/tumor. The collection of evidence suggests a calcified urachus. The patient was discharged with conservative treatment and a mild analgesic.

In this paper, Lendemerialla vaczii is described as a new lichen species to science from the James Ross Island and Horseshoe Island, Antarctic Peninsula, based on morphology and phylogenetic analysis. The new species is characterized by brownish cream or buff-colored areolate thallus lacking vegetative propagules, black and lecideine apothecia and very thin (up to 1 µm) septa in ascospores. Phylogenetic analysis of nrITS sequence data shows that new species clusters in the genus Lendemeriella with a high bootstrap support. The new species is compared with other Lendemeriella species and other related crustose Teloschistaceae species without anthraquinones and a comprehensive description is provided. An identification key to 10 species of Lendemeriella is also provided.
Marine mammals records in the Haswell archipelago, East Antarctica
Authors: Golubev Sergey
Published: October 2023

This is the first comprehensive review of marine mammal records from the Haswell archipelago (Davis Sea, East Antarctica), collected in 1912-2016. The goal of the review is to provide baseline ecological and faunal information on the marine mammals during the historical period (species diversity and status). Eight marine mammal species were recorded within the survey area. Ross seals (Ommatophoca rossii) and sei whales (Balaenoptera borealis) were seen very rarely. Killer whales (Orcinus orca), southern elephant seals (Mirounga leonina) and leopard seals (Hydrurga leptonyx) appeared rarely and few in numbers. Crabeater seals (Lobodon carcinophaga) were rare in general but common during the rare seasons of early fast ice breaking. Weddell seals (Leptonychotes weddellii) were common year-round. Antarctic minke whales (Balaenoptera bonaerensis) were seasonally common. Weddell seals and Antarctic minke whales were recorded annually. Only Weddell seals were found year-round. Leopard seals were seasonal residents, the remaining species were seasonal visitors in the area. The archipelago is an annual breeding site for Weddell seals (up to 10 pups per breeding season). Rare breeding of crabeater seals is possible. The information presented in this paper was obtained mostly through random observations and few historical records. During the long-term monitoring, a single agreed-upon data collection protocol was not used. As a result, the status of each marine mammal species in this paper should be regarded as preliminary. The review represents a basis for the development of further research programs. A unified protocol for the year-round registration of marine mammals under the conditions of the Mirny Station for the program for monitoring the biota of the Haswell archipelago is proposed.

A smart environmental monitoring system for data centres using IOT and machine learning
Authors:   , Okello Wayne
Published: October 2023

Data centres are a crucial part of many organizations in the world today consisting of expensive assets that store and process critical business data as well as applications responsible for their daily operations. Unconducive environmental conditions can lead to decline in performance, sporadic failures and total damage of equipment in the data centers which can consequently lead to data loss as well as disruption of the continuity of business operations. The objective of this project was to develop an environmental monitoring system that employs Internet of Things (IoT) and machine learning to monitor and predict important environmental parameters within a data centre setting. The system comprises of a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) of four (4) sensor nodes and a sink node. The sensor nodes measure environmental parameters of temperature, humidity, smoke, water, voltage and current. The readings captured from the sensor nodes are sent wirelessly to a database on a Raspberry Pi 4 for local storage as well as the ThingSpeak platform for cloud data logging and real-time visualization. An audio alarm is triggered, and email, Short Message Service (SMS), as well as WhatsApp alert notifications are sent to the data centre administrators in case any undesirable environmental condition is detected. Time series forecasting machine learning models were developed to predict future temperature and humidity trends. The models were trained using Facebook Prophet, Auto Regressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) and Exponential Smoothing (ES) algorithms. Facebook Prophet manifested the best performance with a Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) of 5.77% and 8.98% for the temperature and humidity models respectively. In conclusion, the developed environmental monitoring system for data centers surpasses existing alternatives by integrating forecasting capabilities, monitoring several critical parameters, and offering scalability for improved efficiency and reliability. The study recommendations include exploring a Web of Things (WoT) approach and incorporating instant corrective measures for improved performance.

Published: October 2023

This study attempts to analyze the productivity level of Takaful industry in Indonesia, both in terms of changes of its efficiency and also its technological. There are two things that are calculated in Malmquist index measurement that is catch-up effect and frontier shift effect. Findings from the results are very interesting. The average value of the overall efficiency of Takaful industry in Indonesia is relatively medium at 77.8%, while the mean standard deviation is 0.17. This indicates the enough good performance of Takaful industry in Indonesia. In general, there has been an increase in the level of productivity of Takaful institutions in Indonesia in the period 2016 to 2018, even though its very small. The increase in productivity growth (1.076) of Takaful institutions in Indonesia is generally caused by technological change (1.078) instead of changes in efficiency (0.998). Thus the service of Takaful institutions is needed which is more innovative in relation to the development of technology in the future.

I had resisted the concept of having my own, academic, business cards for a long time. It seemed, and still does to an extent, an encroachment upon the sphere I love from the world of dehumanised business practice. However, networking is a fundamental part of academic conference attendance. I have several conferences coming up in June.
A dissenting voice on #AcBoWriMo

This is a bit of a spoilsport post, but I wanted to set down, in writing, some of the reasons that I am extremely wary of the #AcBoWriMo experiment that is currently underway on Twitter. #AcBoWriMo stands for Academic Book Writing Month.
I have nothing to do with this "dissertation writing service"
Authors: Eve Martin Paul
Published: October 2023

Perhaps a strange title for a post, but I was recently kindly alerted by Luis-Manuel Garcia at the University of Chicago that a certain dissertation writing "service" has been aggregating and re-posting material from blogs that feature the word "dissertation". As my professional reputation in academic circles could rest upon a Google search, I wanted this post to come up indicating that I absolutely deplore these outfits which do nothing to
Guarding your academic ideas
Authors: Eve Martin Paul
Published: October 2023

There was a recent conversation on Twitter's excellent #phdchat hashtag revealing the angst that can be involved in getting the balance right between holding an idea back (for formal academic publication) and putting it out there. I'd like, in this post, to enumerate the pros and cons of each side, both ideologically and pragmatically.
Is it worth presenting at postgraduate conferences?
Authors: Eve Martin Paul
Published: October 2023

I've just been asked on Twitter as to whether it's worth presenting at postgraduate conferences and thought I'd share my thoughts in a short post. Answer: it depends what you want to get from a conference. If you are looking to meet intellectually stimulating people, get experience presenting and genuine feedback on your work, then a postgraduate conference is great.
Writing a plugin for Open Journal Systems: Part 1
Authors: Eve Martin Paul
Published: October 2023

As promised when I described the problem I was having with the xmlGalley plugin in OJS, I'm going to begin describing the path I am taking to fixing this, and hope that the knowledge will provide some shortcuts for others wishing to develop plugins, amid the sparse documentation on this aspect. As OJS is the leading system for Open Access publishing, it is important that technical resources are available for others to build upon this platform.

Published: October 2023

Following on from my previous guide to using Zotero in Ubuntu Natty, I am pleased to present, here, the guide for Ubuntu 11.10: The Oneiric Ocelot. The most crucial new addition is that, at the time of writing (September 2011), Zotero was unable to load in Firefox 7.0 beta. Update: As of 9th of September, this is fixed.

Thoughts from "Calling All Agents": The first symposium on the work of Tom McCarthy
Authors: Eve Martin Paul
Published: October 2023

A quick roundup/review post from the "Calling All Agents: A Symposium on the work of Tom McCarthy" conference, held at Birkbeck and organised, superbly, by Dennis Duncan on zero budget. As might be expected, there's a slight (paranoiac?) Pynchon-bias in the reporting below, but I hope it proves useful. As always, I'm happy to correct any errors/omissions on authorial request.
Britain or America for the PhD in English?
Authors: Eve Martin Paul
Published: October 2023

 Britain or America for the PhD in English?  I recently reached the halfway point in my 6-year PhD program at the University of Michigan, allowing me to ponder the consequences of my having chosen to do the doctorate in America rather than Britain. If I’d started my PhD in 2008 in Britain, I’d be expected to have pretty much finished my dissertation by now, to be on the verge of the abysmal job market.
Romeo Castellucci / Socìetas Raffaello Sanzio's "On the Concept of the Face, Regarding the Son of God"
Authors: Eve Martin Paul
Published: October 2023

If, like myself, you had travelled to The Barbican last night, you would have seen two men, a father and son, on a dazzlingly white, clinical set, a gigantic face of Jesus projected onto the screen behind them. The face shimmers. It's impossible to look at, every time it draws your focus, the area under scrutiny seems to disappear, only for a new area to command attention.

Guardian Q&A Summary: Life After a PhD

A summary of the Guardian Q&A session, 'Life After a PhD' for which I was a panelist, is now available over on the Guardian Higher Education Network. Of particular interest, in my view, is Tennie Videler's reference to ASHPIT; certainly a lead I am hoping to follow up. Keep your eyes peeled for their third policy day. I'm also quite amused that my aside on Wittgenstein made it into the summary;

Towards successful organizational change management: New process model identification
Authors: Vrcelj Nikolina
Published: October 2023

The ever-evolving corporate landscape, catalyzed by the COVID-19 pandemic and rapid advancements in information technologies, has given rise to a new organizational philosophy. As novel sectors emerge and new forms of work and business processes unfold, change becomes a necessity integrated into companies' survival strategies. The dynamic, diverse, and discontinuous nature of the contemporary business environment demands a deeper understanding of organizational changes. Despite the prevalence of change, a significant number of initiated change programs fail, emphasizing the need for effective change management. While numerous change management theories exist, empirical validation and practical testing are often lacking, creating a gap between theory and application. This paper presents a critical exploration of prominent process models of organizational change, aiming to identify a unified diagnostic process model that addresses existing shortcomings and leverages the strengths of these models. The research identifies ten common phases in various process models, leading to the formulation of a 10F process model of organizational change. This model encompasses crucial stages such as problem diagnosis, creating a sense of urgency, establishing leadership roles, vision creation, planning, communication, implementation, short-term results, stabilization, and monitoring. The 10F model offers a comprehensive framework for understanding and managing diverse organizational changes. This research contributes to bridging the gap between theory and practice, providing valuable insights for managers, researchers, and practitioners engaged in organizational change initiatives.
