Authors: Viet Dao Duy , My Nguyen Tra , Doai Nguyen Thi
Published: November 2024

The Cardiovascular Center at Hanoi Medical University Hospital (HMUH) routinely employs vital signs monitoring systems for patient in severe conditions, post-intervention, and post-cardiothoracic surgery. However, confining patients to their beds often causes significant inconvenience. Additionally, alarm signals from these systems, while crucial for safety, can often be clinically insignificant, leading to patient anxiety. This study aimed to assess the anxiety levels and experiences of patients connected to continuous monitoring systems. Conducted between February and May 2024 at the Cardiovascular Center (HMUH), the cross-sectional study involved 108 patients who had been continuously monitored for at least 24 hours. Data were collected on demographics, reasons for monitoring, alarm frequency, clinical significance of alarms, and anxiety levels using the Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale (HADS). Results indicated some notable results, continuous monitoring was primarily due to post-cardiovascular interventions (51.9%), a significant majority (96.8%) experienced more than 12 alarms per day, but only 38.7% of these alarms had clinical significance. Anxiety levels were notably high, with 33.4% having anxiety. Major factors contributing to patient discomfort included sound and limitations in personal care. Continuous monitoring significantly impacts patient anxiety and comfort, primarily due to excessive non-significant alarms and restricted mobility.

Shaping a Modern Programming Paradigms Course for Advanced University Students
Authors: Montecchi Leonardo
Published: November 2024

Programming is one of the core disciplines in Computer Science (CS) and Computer Engineering (CE) courses, and it is increasingly permeating the curricula of other study programs. After undergoing an introduction to programming and a course on object-oriented programming, some students will attend an advanced course on programming languages, where features of different programming paradigms are discussed, with an emphasis on the semantics of execution. Due to the emphasis on theory aspects, such courses often employ old or experimental languages that have little practical application, resulting in low engagement of students. Unfortunately, most of the research work focused on introductory programming, which has a more established syllabus and larger possibilities for interventions. In this paper we analyze the current status of the programming languages course at our university, and we investigate possibilities for renewing the syllabus with modern languages and tools. We first review the current topics addressed by the course, and then we discuss possible content changes with the aim to shape a more engaging course. The paper ends with a plan for implementing and evaluating the new version of the course starting from the next academic year.

Background: Acute diarrhea in children is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC). Despite its relatively low mortality in high-income countries (HIC), it remains a significant cause of hospital visits and healthcare burdens. The disease, often caused by viral, bacterial, or parasitic pathogens, presents differently in LMIC and HIC. Effective management, particularly in children under five, is critical to preventing dehydration and other severe complications. Aim: This review aims to provide an updated synthesis on the etiology, pathogenesis, clinical management, and nursing interventions for acute diarrhea in children. It seeks to compare practices in both LMIC and HIC settings, focusing on dehydration assessment, fluid therapy, and the role of vaccination in prevention. Methods: The review synthesizes recent evidence from clinical studies, guidelines, and expert recommendations on the management of acute diarrhea in children. It includes an analysis of common pathogens, diagnostic methods, dehydration scales, and treatment protocols for both viral and bacterial diarrhea. The focus is on effective interventions, particularly nursing care in the context of hydration management and monitoring.

Published: November 2024

Background: Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is a leading cause of maternal mortality globally, contributing to approximately 27.1% of maternal deaths. The primary cause of PPH is uterine atony, characterized by the failure of the uterus to contract after childbirth. Despite active management strategies like exogenous oxytocin administration, PPH rates have not significantly decreased, and there is growing evidence suggesting adverse effects from medical interventions such as oxytocin. Alternative methods like skin-to-skin contact (SSC) and early breastfeeding have emerged as promising preventive measures. Aim: The aim of this review is to examine the role of SSC and early breastfeeding in preventing PPH, focusing on their effects on the duration of the third stage of labor, postpartum blood loss, and the underlying physiological mechanisms. Methods: This updated review synthesizes evidence from numerous studies on PPH prevention, with a particular emphasis on physiological management strategies. We explore the impact of SSC and early breastfeeding on uterine contraction and oxytocin production, as well as their role in mitigating blood loss during the third stage of labor. Results: Evidence suggests that SSC and early breastfeeding stimulate endogenous oxytocin production, facilitating uterine contraction and potentially reducing PPH.
Ruling with Knowledge vs. Ruling with Laws: The Role of Law in Plato's Best City in the Statesman
Authors: Yoon Jiseob
Published: November 2024

Unlike the view that there is no need for law in Plato's best city, or the view that law is a useful tool in the city, this article argues that law is a necessary tool not only in cities without genuine statesmen but also in the best city ruled by the statesmen.
Law is necessary even in the best city because it is the mechanism that delivers the statesmen's knowledge to the ordinary citizens' lives. The law in the best city has a peculiar status as a necessary but inferior tool to political expertise, and the best city is law-possessing, law-abiding
by default, and sometimes law-overruling.

Published: November 2024

Em decorrência das novas relações políticas, sociais e econômicas verificadas na Europa do século XIX, as transformações em áreas urbanas antigas passaram a ser frequentes em consequência, particularmente, da Revolução Industrial. Muitas cidades apresentaram transformações morfológicas, em um curto espaço de tempo e passaram a conviver com uma série de disfunções urbanas visto que suas estruturas físicas não se adaptavam às necessidades das novas funções produtivas e sociais. Estas transformações chamaram a atenção de alguns homens letrados, os chamados teóricos do restauro e da conservação, que discutiram o assunto com seus pares ou propuseram, por escrito, orientações sobre como proceder diante da necessitade de intervenção. Por meio da revisão da literatura, este artigo observa como os citados teóricos começaram a elaborar contribuições para a formação do conceito de patrimônio urbano, termo atualmente usual, mas cuja definição tardou para se consolidar, quando se tem por parâmetro o patrimônio arquitetônico. A partir do conjunto das abordagens teóricas e conceituais trazidas pelas referências aqui discutidas fica evidente que as preocupações, as intervenções e os cuidados para com o patrimônio, antes restritos aos monumentos, se estenderam aos tecidos urbanos. Portanto, as cidades e povoados, com suas ruas e praças antigas, sua topografia, seus agrupamentos de construções e demais elementos morfológicos, começaram a ser compreendidos como artefatos com valores patrimoniais representativos.

Published: November 2024

The extract of the stem and green fruits from plants of the Bromeliaceae family (mainly pineapple - Ananas comosus) contains a complex of proteolytic enzymes generically known as Bromelain (thiol endopeptidases), to which several pharmacological activities are attributed, such as blood coagulation, fibrinolysis healing and anti-inflammatory action.  Nanotechnology has several forms of use in the pharmaceutical field, including the use of nanoparticles that act as vehicles for the distribution of derivative compounds. This study aimed to obtain bromelain, prepare gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) associated with these enzymes and perform characterization tests to observe the stability, size, polydispersion index, morphology and enzymatic activity of this association. Considering the above, gold nanoparticles associated with bromelain were prepared. Before the association, they showed a moderate stability of 27.8 mV, size of 47.6 nm, polydispersion index of 0.391. After the association, they reached values of 12 mV, 1,240 nm and 0.536, respectively. Microscopy showed that the produced nanoparticles were spherical and had an average diameter of 20 nm after association. The association reached about 77%, with an enzymatic activity of 23.36 U/ml, confirming the efficiency of the adsorption. Therefore, the complex formed by nanoparticles of gold and bromelain presented good physical characteristics and excellent proteolytic activity when compared to scientific literature, and therefore can be used for later application in curative films through new works.

The rapid evolution of telemedicine is reshaping healthcare delivery, through data analysis, this study explores telemedicines role and potential in modern healthcare. Leveraging a diverse dataset, statistical and machine learning techniques are applied to uncover significant patterns and insights. Results show marked improvements in access, patient satisfaction, and cost savings for both patients and providers, while challenges such as technology adoption and digital literacy gaps remain critical. The adoption of telemedicine has accelerated significantly, transforming healthcare delivery and accessibility [2]. This study investigates the impact and efficacy of telemedicine by leveraging data analysis to evaluate its outcomes on patient health, access to care, cost efficiency, and patient satisfaction. Data were collected from a variety of sources, including patient records, survey responses, and healthcare cost reports, covering a diverse patient population across different demographics and regions. Key metrics such as treatment adherence, recovery rates, consultation frequency, and cost reduction were analysed. The findings reveal that telemedicine generally improves access to healthcare, particularly for rural and underserved populations, and can reduce healthcare costs by minimizing the need for in-person visits. However, challenges such as limited access to technology, variability in patient outcomes, and disparities in healthcare quality were identified. This analysis provides insights into the strengths and limitations of telemedicine, suggesting strategies for improving its efficacy and equitable access. The study underscores the need for ongoing research to optimize telemedicines role in modern healthcare systems [3].

Background: Most individuals with inflammatory arthritis are diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), an immunological disorder characterized by autoantibodies, particularly anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies (ACCP), which initiate inflammatory responses. Recent studies have shown that cytokines contribute to the progression and dissemination of RA, with elevated levels of serum IL-27 and IL-30. Objective: To assess the utility of serum IL-27 and IL-30 levels as predictors of disease activity in RA patients and their correlation with response to treatment. Methods: One hundred patients and fifty healthy controls made up the total number of participants in this case-control research. Baghdad Teaching Hospital conducted the study from November 2023 to February 2024. The American College of Rheumatology 2010 criteria were used for patient recruitment. An ELISA technique was used to evaluate the amounts of the biomarkers. Results: The levels of IL-27 and IL-30 are significantly higher in rheumatoid arthritis patients compared to healthy controls. The mean serum IL-27 and IL-30 concentrations were highest in the severe, followed by moderate and low disease activity. Patients taking methotrexate had higher serum IL-27 and IL-30 concentrations, which were significantly higher than those on both etanercept and etanercept + methotrexate groups. Conclusions: Elevated serum levels of IL-27 and IL-30 may serve as diagnostic markers for RA and as indicators of disease activity and response to treatment.

Reshaping Sacred Spaces: Experimental Video Installation Art in Multireligious Venues
Authors: Zhao Xing
Published: November 2024

In contemporary Europe, the dialogue between contemporary art and religion is becoming increasingly frequent. It has become a widespread phenomenon in France to exhibit contemporary art installations and works in religious venues, such as monasteries, chapels, churches, temples, and synagogues. Meanwhile, within a globalized context, religious spaces in China are also transforming toward more diverse uses. Video installation, as a rapidly evolving and highly significant branch of contemporary art, offers a specific avenue for exploring this trend due to its unique expressive approach, presentation style, and distinctive spatial requirements. This paper conducts field research and analytical compilation of representative video installation art experiments in China and France, using Buddhist and Christian sites as examples, and examines the dual effects of this integration through the theoretical perspectives of site-specific art and relational aesthetics. The study aims to provide new insights into the transformation and diversification of religious spaces and to contribute to theoretical research on the creative practices of emerging artists.
Measurement methods and interaction analysis of the relationship between emotions and physiological responses
Authors: Chang Yifan
Published: November 2024

This research delves into the intricate and multifaceted relationship between emotions and physiological responses, a topic of growing importance across psychology, neuroscience, and related disciplines. The research analyzes the methodologies for measuring emotions through physiological signals, such as heart rate variability (HRV), electroencephalography (EEG), and electrodermal activity (EDA). These methods provide critical insights into how emotions manifest physically, offering a window into the physiological underpinnings of emotional experiences. The research critically evaluates key theoretical perspectives, ranging from the James-Lange theory-which suggests that physiological changes are the primary triggers of emotional experiences-to more contemporary models that propose complex, bidirectional interactions between emotions and physiological responses. Despite significant advances in the field, a definitive conclusion on the exact nature of this relationship remains elusive. This underscores the ongoing need for further research to clarify these processes. Future studies should focus on bridging existing gaps, particularly in the precision and reliability of emotion recognition technologies, to better understand and quantify the emotion-physiology link.
The Role of Project Based Learning at the Core of Curriculum Development
Authors: Mitchell John , Tilley Emanuela
Published: November 2024

This paper will present the argument that while Problem Based Learning (PBL) (or its variant Project Based Learning, PjBL) provides significant benefits and advantages to student learning in of itself, the full benefit of PBL is only completely realised as part of an “integrated” curriculum that provides a variety of learning opportunities and instructional support. We propose that PBL should be more widely considered and used as the key integrative feature within a curriculum to enable programmes to connect theory, practice, societal context, values and skills as well as to break the mentality that comes with modularisation. To do this, we suggest that a coherent thread of PBL should be enacted that is stratified to progress students through increasingly open problems and projects, each connected to other aspects of the taught curriculum while enabling skills development and the formation of professional and responsible attitudes and attributes. We provide some examples from our own experience in Engineering but advocate that this approach is much more widely applicable within higher education.
