Participación de enfermería en la vigilancia y prevención de la resistencia antimicrobiana
Authors:   Universidade de São Paulo, Pazin-Filho Antonio
Published: November 2022

La Guerra de la Crimea en 1854 fue la primera cubierta por la prensa, que destacaron las malas condiciones en el cuidado de los soldados heridos en combate, con tasas de mortalidad alrededor del 42%. La presión popular inglesa incentivó a que Florence Nightingale (1820-1910) se desplazase hasta Crimea y las medidas sanitarias implementadas derrumbaron la tasa de mortalidad hasta el 2% rápidamente. Mientras aún no se conocía la Teoría de los Gérmenes, es posible afirmar que el éxito ocurrió a causa del control de la infección en las heridas. Esos esfuerzos garantizaron a Florence Nightingale la notoriedad para que le encargasen el perfeccionamiento de las condiciones sanitarias hospitalarias cuando regresó a Inglaterra, fortaleciendo la asepsia (la limpieza seguida por la esterilización de los equipos para procedimientos) y la antisepsia (el uso de substancias esterilizantes). Uno de sus cambios fue justamente el desarrollo de la Enfermería como profesión, que ya nace asociada al control de las infecciones. La transformación del hospital se completó con el descubrimiento de los antibióticos en la década de 1940, el nacimiento de la Anestesia y los cambios sociales de las ciudades. Nacía el hospital moderno, capacitado para realizar procedimientos quirúrgicos y tratamientos que lo convirtieron en el centro de la Salud actual, hecho que se incrementó después de los reportes de Flexner acerca de las condiciones de enseñanza en las facultades de medicina en los EEUU. Los antibióticos impactaron de modo tan exitoso las tasas de infección en los principios de su utilización, que el énfasis en las otras medidas de prevención disminuyó. Además, la incidencia de resistencia a los antibióticos fue detectada tempranamente, casi al mismo tiempo que su introducción. En conjunto, esos dos puntos añadidos al incremento de procedimientos invasivos y al uso indiscriminado en otras áreas fuera de la Salud, como la ganadería, contribuyeron para que la resistencia a los antibióticos se convirtiese en la calamidad que vivimos actualmente. Mientras se sigan buscando nuevos antibióticos, mucho de la investigación es dedicada a la búsqueda de otras soluciones como las vacunas, inmunoterápicos, nanobios, terapia fágica, células madre y moléculas de adhesión. Sin embargo, aunque mucho se haya descubierto, aún no estamos preparados para aplicarlos a la clínica diaria.
Virtual assurance: Reflecting on the ‘confident prayer of the Church’ through online worship
Authors: Shields Tom
Published: November 2022

The author addresses two constant questions in Roman Catholic sacramental theology against the background of the broadcasting of online Mass, especially during the restrictions imposed on in-person attendance to inhibit the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. These are: what constitutes sacramental communion in the Roman Catholic Church and what is the role of the priest in celebrating the Eucharist? Looking at the first of those questions, he briefly examines the recent work of Katherine G. Schmidt and her use of the sacramental theology of Louis-Marie Chauvet, which addresses both the idea and the experience of presence and absence in the celebration of the Eucharist. The author concludes that, while her work raises some important issues that need to be addressed, she does not entirely represent Chauvet’s thinking, and the fullest understanding of sacramental communion in the Roman Catholic tradition will always include the physical. It is in addressing the second question, that of the responsibility of the priest in celebrating the Mass with an online congregation, that the author believes a more satisfactory answer can be found as to the sacramental ‘value’ of virtual worship. Employing the ideas of authority, authenticity, and assurance, as they relate to the ordained ministry, he maintains that it is crucial the ‘confident prayer of the Church’ be visible and accessible.

Authors: Fayruzov K. V. , Kashcheev I. D. , Zemlyanoi K. G. , Chaika E. F.
Published: November 2022

The composition and properties of two types of calcined magnesium oxide powders, differing in chemical composition, are investigated. The difference in chemical and phase composition determines the different behavior of powders during firing, which is smoothed only at a temperature of more than 1850 °C. The microstructure of the obtained briquettes differs in the amount of glass phase, the type and size of pores, as well as the size and quality of the crystals of the periclase. From the studied powders of decarbonized magnesium oxide without sintering additives, a briquette with an apparent density of at least 3,35 g/cm3 required to obtain high-quality products can be obtained only at a firing temperature of at least 1850 °C with an exposure at the final firing temperature of at least 2 hours.

Published: November 2022

В статье рассматривается региональная специфика реакции на пандемию COVID-19. Объектом исследования является мнение экспертов и студенческой молодежи о пандемии COVID-19. Предметом исследования выступает восприятие пандемии COVID-19 и ее влияние на разные сферы жизнедеятельности региональной общности.

Цель исследования — выявить реакцию на пандемию COVID-19 и ее влияние на социальную активность, физическое здоровье, материальное положение, безработицу, миграцию, общественные настроения. Научная новизна состоит в изучении реакции на пандемию COVID-19 в регионе, пережившем вооруженный конфликт, с преобладанием традиционной культуры.

Методологией служили социокультурный и деятельный подходы, применялся метод количественного анализа социологических и статистических показателей.

Результат исследования. В статье характеризуется первоначальная реакция среди различных групп населения, работников административного управления, представителей религиозных организаций. Выделяются обозначившиеся подходы к пониманию пандемии COVID-19: психоэмоциональный, идеологический, когнитивный и рационально-прагматический, который выразился в специальном профессиональном отношении к складывающейся эпидемиологической ситуации. Сравнивается восприятие распространения коронавируса и возможных последствий экспертами и в среде студенческой молодежи.

УСТОЙЧИВОЕ РАЗВИТИЕ В КОНТЕКСТЕ ПОЛИТЭКОНОМИЧЕСКОГО ПОДХОДА
Authors: Вегнер-Козлова Екатерина Олеговна
Published: November 2022

Целью исследования является рассмотрение концепции устойчивого развития в контексте политэкономического подхода.

Методологическую базу исследования представляют базисные положения политэкономии и концепции устойчивого развития. Основу исследования составляют труды, посвященные политэкономии. К используемым научным методам относятся сравнительный и причинно-следственный анализ.

Результаты исследования. Концепция устойчивого развития в контексте повестки, задаваемой институтами ООН, в большей степени соответствует задачам глобализации. Однако объективные обстоятельства способствовали кристаллизации другого вектора, в рамках которого обозначился приоритет общественных интересов над частными и высокий статус государства. Проблематика накопленного экологического вреда вследствие активного экономического роста в XX–XXI вв., на наш взгляд, требует комплексного и многостороннего подхода. Геополитические события 2022 г. свидетельствуют о том, что устойчивое развитие должно рассматриваться через призму экзистенциальных национальных интересов, как экономических, так и цивилизационных.

В рамках настоящего исследования уточнена сущность устойчивого развития с точки зрения политэкономического подхода. Предложено рассмотреть концепцию устойчивого развития как парадигму, обусловленную реальной экзистенциальной задачей минимизации негативных последствий хозяйственной деятельности для окружающей среды и одновременного сохранения социоэкономической стабильности.

Перспективы исследования заключаются в развитии теоретических основ перехода к принципам устойчивого развития.

Published: November 2022

Цель работы. На современном этапе развития транспортной инфраструктуры система обслуживания населения городских агломераций нуждается в разработке эффективного комплекса мероприятий по совершенствованию процесса организации пассажирских перевозок. При этом повышение качества обслуживания пассажиров необходимо рассматривать с учетом мобильности населения и информационной доступности услуг. Целью исследования является обоснование выбора метода создания модели организации пассажирских перевозок в городских агломерациях, позволяющей учитывать максимальное количество характеристик транспортной инфраструктуры, и на его основе разработать алгоритм принятия решений, обеспечивающих повышение качества обслуживания пассажиров и транспортной подвижности населения.

Методология исследования. В статье представлены результаты использования метода генетических алгоритмов применительно к пассажирским перевозкам.

Результаты исследования. Исследование на основе метаэвристических методов позволило разработать алгоритм принятия решений с целью оптимизации функционирования системы пассажирского транспорта в масштабах агломераций, что за счет принятия рациональных решений обеспечит повышение качества транспортных услуг по перевозке пассажиров, сокращение затрат времени пассажиров на ожидание автобуса и на транспортное обслуживание.

Перспективы исследования. Специфика данного подхода позволяет расширить постановку задачи и учесть дополнительные факторы, влияющие на осуществление процесса организации транспортного обслуживания населения в агломерациях.
ВЛИЯНИЕ ОТКРЫТОСТИ ЭКОНОМИКИ НА РАЗВИТИЕ ВЫСОКОТЕХНОЛОГИЧНОЙ ПРОМЫШЛЕННОСТИ В КИТАЕ
Authors: Ван Юйчань
Published: November 2022

Цель исследования. Несмотря на многочисленные исследования в области развития высокотехнологичной промышленности, большинство из них сосредоточено на исследованиях региональных экономических уровней, государственной политики, финансирования научных исследований, человеческого капитала и т. д., но лишь немногие из них затрагивают влияние открытости на высокотехнологичные отрасли, что определяет цель данной работы — изучить взаимосвязь между открытостью экономики и развитием высокотехнологичных отраслей.

Методологическая основа. Исследование основано на теоретическом и эмпирическом анализе. Первоначально автором был проведен анализ литературы по теме работы. После этого на основе на панельных данных 31 провинции (муниципалитета) за период с 2010 по 2019 год были использованы методы эмпирического анализа с помощью программного обеспечения Stata 16.0 для сравнения модели со смешанным эффектом, модели со случайным эффектом и модели с фиксированным эффектом для проведения теста Хаусмана и использования фиксированного модель-эффекта для анализа взаимосвязи между открытостью и развитием высокотехнологичных отраслей и проведения сравнительного анализа по различным регионам, чтобы выдвинуть целевые предложения по развитию.

Результат исследования. Исследование показало, что открытость экономики положительно коррелирует с развитием высокотехнологичных отраслей, с повышением уровня открытости на 1 % величина выпуска высокотехнологичных отраслей увеличивается на 0,1095 %, этот результат согласуется с гипотезой в данной работе.

Перспективы исследования. В этом исследовании используется отношение экспорта высокотехнологичной промышленности к ВВП для измерения степени открытости, что относительно просто и может быть частичным. То, как всесторонне измерить степень открытости, также является направлением дальнейших исследований.

Authors: Дуйшоев Эмилбек Каримович
Published: November 2022

Целью исследования является анализ генезиса евразийского проекта в рамках осмысления отечественными философами сложившихся социальных и геополитических реалий на протяжении российской истории.

Источники информации и методология исследования определяются характером исследования и содержат основные положения и обобщения российской отечественной мысли в контексте обретения Россией статуса в мировой политике. Соответствующим образом к ним можно отнести работы отечественных исследователей прошлого и нынешнего периодов, связанных с влиянием смены исторических эпох и направленных на выявление цивилизационного и политического факторов в развитии евразийского проекта.

Результаты исследования. Достигнутыми результатами исследования можно считать понимание необходимости осмысления евразийского проекта в контексте развития российского государства как направленного на экспансию (освоение евразийского пространства) и дилемму «восток-запад», определяемую с одной стороны утверждением России в качестве европейской державы, с другой — в качестве многонационального поликультурного государства, связанного с объединительной мыслью народов Евразии.

Перспективы использования результатов. Полученные обобщения и оценки способствуют накоплению категориального инструментов в анализе реальных путей интеграции народов Евразии, в частности киргизского общества, где культурно-цивилизационные и культурно-исторические особенности способствовали мирному развитию в предшествующий период и ориентируют на определение оптимальных путей развития киргизского государства и общества в настоящем и будущем.
ВОИНСКИЙ ЭТОС В КОНТЕКСТЕ ВЛИЯНИЯ ТЕХНОЛОГИЧЕСКИХ ИННОВАЦИЙ: ФИЛОСОФСКО-АНТРОПОЛОГИЧЕСКИЕ АСПЕКТЫ
Authors: Казаков Александр Александрович , Черных Сергей Сергеевич
Published: November 2022

Цель исследования заключается в дескрипции воинского этоса и выявлении тенденции его трансформации в условиях технологических инноваций.

Методологическую базу исследования представляют работы современных философов, изучающих проблемы влияния техники на антропологические практики, в том числе технологических инноваций в сфере ведения войны. В частности в статье были использованы работы зарубежных и отечественных авторов, посвященные активному использованию боевых беспилотников (дронов), проблемам «роботизации» войны, а также этическим следствиям, вытекающим из трансформации практик ведения войны.

Результаты исследования. Анализ научных материалов позволяет сделать вывод о том, что многие технологические инновации довольно быстро осваиваются вооруженными силами, превращаясь в привычные практики ведения войны. Несмотря на внедрение искусственного интеллекта и систем дистанционного боя, человеческий фактор, включающий в себя мотивацию солдат рисковать собственной жизнью, продолжает играть ключевую роль на поле современной войны. В статье отмечается, что воинский этос, культивируемый в российской армии, обладает консервативными установками, направленными на сохранение высокого морального облика солдата, не приемлющего практики террора в отношении мирного населения.

Перспективу исследования составляет дальнейший анализ тенденций сохранения воинского этоса в условиях внедрения в армию инновационных технологий и трансформации практик ведения войны.

Published: November 2022

INTRODUÇÃO: A terapia com oxigênio suplementar reduz quadros de hipóxia, diminuindo a mortalidade entre recém-nascidos prematuros (RNPT), porém a excessiva exposição ao oxigênio tem o potencial de atingir e danificar múltiplos órgãos do neonato. OBJETIVO: Determinar os fatores associados ao uso de suporte ventilatório/oxigenoterapia nos RNPT. MATERIAIS E MÉTODOS: Estudo observacional, longitudinal, prospectivo de caráter quantitativo, realizado no período de julho de 2019 a março de 2020, em unidade de terapia intensiva neonatal (UTIN) de um hospital público universitário. Foram observados RNPT em uso de oxigenoterapia, desde o período de admissão até a alta, sendo coletados dados gestacionais, de nascimento e parâmetros da oxigenoterapia. RESULTADOS: 62 RNPT foram acompanhados com média de idade gestacional (IG) de 30,5 semanas (±3,43) e mediana de peso ao nascimento (PN) de 1.390 gramas (555 g - 3.115 g). O tempo médio de internação de 35 dias (3-176) e de oxigenoterapia foi de 7,5 dias (1-176). Ao relacionar o total de dias em oxigenoterapia com o valor do Apgar no 5º minuto, não houve relação significativa (rho= -0,158; p=0,219), porém, houve relação com a IG ao nascimento (rho= -0,725; p<0,001), uso de corticoide antenal (p=0,006) e surfactante exógeno (<0,001). Houve relação também com displasia broncopulmonar (DBP) e retinopatia da prematuridade (ROP) (p<0,001). CONCLUSÃO: Os fatores associados ao tempo e uso de oxigenoterapia foram a IG, PN, uso de corticoide antenal e surfactante exógeno, sendo observado também associação com DBP e ROP.

Morphometric study of the lumbar vertebrae in dried anatomical collections v1
Authors: M. Pai Mangala
Published: November 2022

Background: The objective of this anatomical study was to perform the morphometry of dried lumbar vertebrae in human cadavers. Methods: This study utilized 200 adult human cadaveric dried lumbar vertebrae. The digital Vernier calipers was used to perform the measurements.The height, antero-posterior length, transverse length of the body of the vertebrae, interpedicular distance at the lateral ends, lamina length, height and thickness, superior and inferior articular facet height and width, mid sagittal and transverse diameter of vertebral foramen, height, width and thickness of the pars inter-articularis were measured. Results: The vertebral body’s anteroposterior length was more at the lower border than at the superior border (p < 0.01). The length of lamina was higher over the right in comparison to the left (p < 0.001). The height of lamina, width of inferior articular facet, diameter of lateral recess and thickness of pars inter-articularis were greater for the left sided specimens (p < 0.01). The statistical significance was not observed for the comparison of the remaining parameters (p > 0.05). Conclusion: This anatomical study offered several dimensions of lumbar vertebrae, which are essential in the surgical practice. The implants at the lumbar vertebrae need to be manufactured based on the anatomical dimensions of that particular sample population.

The Personality Origins of Positive and Negative Partisanship
Authors: Bankert Alexa
Published: November 2022

Negative partisanship describes the intense disdain for a rival political party. A growing number of political scientists in the US and beyond examine the impact of negative partisanship on citizens’ political behavior, asserting the notion that negative partisanship exerts a strong influence, either on its own or in combination with positive partisanship. Yet we know little about the psychological origins of negative and positive partisanship: Which personality traits are associated with high levels of negative partisanship, and do they differ from the ones that have been linked to positive partisanship? In this article, I address these questions. Utilizing a sample of US adults and a sample of Swedish adults, I examine the influence of prominent personality traits—including Authoritarianism, Social Dominance Orientation, the Need for Closure, and the Big Five—on strong negative and positive partisanship. I demonstrate that the personality origins of positive and negative partisanship differ not just across the two samples but also across partisans on the left and on the right. I conclude the article with implications for research on polarization and a plea for more comparative work on (positive and negative) partisanship.

Authors: Şahan Uğur , Şenavcı Murat , Erel Özlem
Published: November 2022

Objective: Children marriage at early age appears to be a problem in many countries of the World nowadays. With this study, it is aimed to reveal the factors that are effective on the road to early marriage.
Methods: In this research, it was examined on written reports to 151 cases who applied to Aydın Adnan Menderes University Hospital Forensic Medicine Department between January 01, 2007 and December 31, 2019 in Aydın.
Results: It was determined that most of the cases (86,8%; n:131) were primary school graduates and 90,7% (n:137) did not continue formal education. 62,9% (n:78) of the cases were  detected to apply for marriage after sexual intercourse or sexual abuse. The rate of those who became pregnant during their application and whose mothers gave birth at the age of 18 and under was 20% (n:20). There was a significant difference between pregnant women and their mothers first birth ages.
Conclusion:  Child marriage continues to be an important public health problem in our country and many other countries in the world. Obviously, multi-faceted strategies are needed to target different aspects of the problem, including legal, political, social, economic, health and education. Child marriage should be seen as a multidimensional, sequential abuse that affects both children giving births and children born from these marriages. This is an important form of the intergenerational abuse.
Tıbbi Uygulama Hatası İddialarında İlliyetin Değerlendirilmesine Sistematik Bir Yaklaşım Olarak İlliyet Testlerinin Kullanılması

Published: November 2022

When a claim of medical malpractice is encountered, it is an enormous problem to determine the “presence of causation”. The effect of other intervening factors on the resulting undesirable situation creates great difficulty in determining the causation. In these cases, it may be beneficial to apply causation tests prepared with a legal and philosophical perspective. In this paper, the most known and widely used of these tests, the “but for” test, as well as the lesser known and used “substantial factor” test and “INUS/NESS” tests were reviewed from the literature and their use in medical practice errors were explained with cases.

Published: November 2022

Objective: This paper aims to assess the impact of SARS-CoV2 outbreak on forensic medicine residency training and to reveal implemented methods to keep the standard of residency education to prevent pandemic’s catastrophic effects on education of forensic medicine residents in Turkey.
Methods: Two online-based surveys were prepared towards “Residents of forensic medicine” and “Head of departments”. Survey-1 completed by 125 forensic medicine residents and Survey-2 completed by 18 heads of forensic medicine departments from different regions of Turkey.
Results: More than half of the residents who started their clinical training practice before outbreak of pandemic reported that there has been a decrease in numbers of clinical practical activities, and half of the residents stated that lectures/meetings have been suspended due to the pandemic. Distance learning/meeting applications in educational activities were found "partially useful" or "useful" by 83.2% of the residents (n=104). Residents who pointed out a change in practical autopsy training reported that this change has negatively affected their forensic medicine residency training.
Conclusions: Sharing our results might force potential implementations to prevent worsening and improve forensic medicine residency training here and worldwide to identify effective responses to such unexpected issues.

Objective: International classification of functioning, disability and health (ICF) was prepared by the World Health Organization to create a standard language for the definition and measurement of health and health-related states. ICF classification collects disease and disability situation sunder 3 titles as organ/system structure sand functions, activity limitations. The guide prepared by the American Medical Association has been prepared based on ICF terminology. AMA guideline calculates the disability rating according to the effects of the person’s daily and social life activities.
Methods: It is aimed to compare the regulations used in our country with the AMA guideline over the calculated disability rates. The disability rates of 315 cases who developed extremity injuries as a result of traffic accidents between 2018 and 2019 were calculated according to 3 regulations. The cases were analyzed in terms of gender, age at the time of the incident, type of accident, time between the incident and admission, injury sites, the clinics for which consultation was requested, whether the operation was performed and the complications that occurred.
Results: 81.9% of the cases were male, the mean age was 31.14 years, when we look at the disability rate values, the highest disability rates is calculated according to the SGK Regulations and the lowest disability rates calculated according to AMA guideline.
Conclusion: AMA guideline has been prepared in detail and clearly for extremity disability calculation and we think that it should be in routine practice to prevent loss of rights.

AIM: To present the clinical manifestations of 5 autosomal dominant cone-rod dystrophy (adCORD) patients from two Chinese families with cone-rod homeobox (CRX) mutation (p.R41W), and to explore the clinical heterogeneity of adCORD with CRX mutation (p.R41W).
METHODS: Interrogation and ophthalmological examinations were undertaken in all patients and unaffected members. Analysis of clinical features was performed by visual acuity, slit lamp examination, visual field examination, fundoscopy, autofluorescence and spectral domain optical coherence tomography. Targeted next-generation sequencing was applied as a useful tool to identify the causative mutation of CORD genes.
RESULTS: A CRX missense mutation c.121C>T was identified in all patients, resulting in an amino acid change from arginine acid to tryptophan (p.R41W). The patients presented with early onset, progressive and different severities with CORD.
CONCLUSION: This is the first report of the clinical phenotype of CRX mutation (p.R41W) in Chinese families, and the mutation can lead to a wide range of various retinal phenotypes.

AIM: To compare intraocular pressure (IOP) readings obtained with Perkins tonometry, iCare Home, iCare 200, and Tonopen to IOP readings obtained with the manometer of a perfusion system to assess the accuracy and reproducibility of each method of tonometry at set pressures.
METHODS: The IOP of human cadaveric eyes (n=2) was measured using a manometer inserted into the eye through the optic nerve. IOP measurements were obtained using a Perkins tonometer, iCare Home, iCare 200, and Tonopen. These measurements were compared to set point IOP measurements of a manometer to determine accuracy and reproducibility of each device.
RESULTS: Mean IOP readings obtained with the Perkins tonometer compared to manometer readings demonstrated a difference of -1.0±5.0 mm Hg (P=0.45), indicating a lower reading on average than manometery although not significant. Mean IOP difference between iCare 200 and manometer was 5.3±2.2 mm Hg (P<0.0001). Mean difference in IOP between iCare Home and manometer was 3.5±2.4 mm Hg (P=0.0004). Mean IOP difference compared to manometer was 4.6±4.0 mm Hg for the Tonopen (P<0.0001). IOP measurements obtained with the Perkins tonometer demonstrated a standard deviation of 5.0 mm Hg while the Tonopen measurements demonstrated a 4.0 mm Hg standard deviation. In comparison, iCare 200 and iCare Home demonstrated 2.2 and 2.4 mm Hg standard deviation, respectively.
CONCLUSION: Applanation tonometry produces more accurate IOP readings than rebound tonometry or Tonopen, however it demonstrates greater variability than the other forms of tonometry. Rebound tonometry is more reproducible but tends to over-estimate IOP.

Wind turbines obtain clean energy from the wind, however, there is a significant environmental impact due to the use of some of their materials. This article analyzes the manufacturing, life cycle, and dismantling of these machines, to under-stand new opportunities to improve these negative aspects, through the review of various articles. The search was focused on SCOPUS articles, using the word "wind turbine" in titles, abstracts, and keywords, obtaining 68,362 results. Subsequently, these results were filtered only articles, reviews, and research theses, reducing the search to 3,663 results, the search was limited to only 10 years, counting from 2020 to 2010, reaching 2,189 documents. The analysis of 2,189 documents obtained is carried out, reducing the literary base to 185 documents with information on manufacturing processes, life cycle analysis, and advances in some countries in the implementation of improvements in the manufacture of wind turbines, to reduce environmental impact. The use of thermosetting materials in wind turbine blades is a reality that must be modified by the environmental problems that these are causing, new materials for blades must be developed by the principles of the circular economy.
Criminal Liability of People With Mental Disorders: Selected Issues
Authors: Mikołajczuk Krzysztof
Published: November 2022

The issue of criminal liability in different legal systems and of the perpetrator’s sanity and mental disorders, has received much attention of researchers from different scientific disciplines. Of many important aspects relevant to this topic, the paper addresses only some, which are related to two legal orders. The first part of the article focuses on the circumstances that exclude and mitigate culpability under Polish criminal law. The author examines the problem of insanity referring to the ways in which insanity is determined and enumerating sources of insanity. Then, the legal consequences of insanity are identified. Finally, the issue of diminished mental capacity in the doctrine of Polish criminal law is analysed. The second part of the article deals with the concept of imputability in the Code of Canon Law of 1983. Quoting the provisions of canon law, the author considers the issue of natural inability to commit a crime by persons who are habitually deprived of the use of reason, and then indicates the circumstances excluding, mitigating and aggravating the perpetrator’s culpability.

An Experimental and Numerical Investigation on the Bending Behavior of Fiber Reinforced Concrete Beams
Authors: ÇANKAYA Mehmet Alper , AKAN Çetin
Published: November 2022

The effects of hooked end steel and polypropylene (PP) fibers on the behavior of large-scale doubly reinforced concrete beams under flexure were investigated using experimental and numeric methods. For this purpose, a total of eight beam specimens consisting in two groups were produced in the laboratory and three-point bending tests were conducted under monotonically increasing load. The beams in the groups were designed to have 0.86 and 1.30% tensile reinforcement ratios leading to either flexural or shear critical sections. Three out of eight were produced to be control samples and did not have any fiber additive while remaining five had 0, 0.5 and 1.0% steel or PP fibers by volume. Experimental results showed that the existence of 0.5% either type of fiber in densely reinforced specimens contributed to shear strength and allowed flexural capacities to be fully used instead of an improvement in the capacity. However, when the steel fiber ratio increased to 1.0% flexural capacity was enhanced by 10% for both type of beams. After the experimental study, the beams numerically modeled using nonlinear finite element method and flexural stiffness before yielding as well as yield strength with load carrying capacities were found to be consistent with that of experiments specifically for the beams having stirrup and steel fibers.

Published: November 2022

The Building Audit system (BAS) has often been criticized due to its various drawbacks by researchers, construction practitioners, and professional chambers. Existing studies, however, do not comprehensively investigate the problems seen in Turkish BAS. Since the decision-makers are provided with little knowledge about the drawbacks of the system, they can barely develop new strategies to improve its effectiveness and efficiency. To bridge this gap, this study aimed to identify the drawbacks seen in the implementation of the Turkish Building Audit System (BAS). In addition, the severity of each drawback was also determined to further provide comprehensive guidance to policymakers and non-governmental organizations (NGOs). Initially, an extensive literature review was conducted to identify problems of Turkish BAS. Identified problems were then validated through Focus Group Discussion (FGD) sessions with the participation of 12 experts who have diverse experience in the related field. Later, a questionnaire survey was designed to measure the severity of each problem/drawback and the data was collected from 15 construction practitioners. The data were then analyzed using the Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy Process (FAHP) method to measure the severities of problems seen in Turkish BAS. Then, the problems were prioritized based on their severities. At the final step, sensitivity analysis was conducted to measure the robustness and reliability of the results derived from the FAHP method. Results revealed that problems such as “Lack of practical knowledge of technical staff”, “Absence of site supervisor at the site” “Political pressure” and “Neglecting technical specifications and procedures” were determined as the most severe problems that need urgent attention of decision-makers. It is highly believed that this study will guide decision-makers for the improvement of existing legislation. Additionally, it is also believed that practitioners will take necessary precautions beforehand by using the outputs of this study.

Published: November 2022

In the transition from price-based bid evaluation to multi-criteria bid evaluation process in public procurements pioneered by academic research, the aim is to ensure the delivery of the project at the desired quality without exceeding the time and budget of the contract process. In the tenders made according to the Public Procurement Law (PPL), while the lowest price principle was used in the bid evaluation stage, non-price elements began to be used in time. In this study, solutions to current problems such as the evaluation of extremely low bids in the tenders made within the scope of the law, the long duration of the bid evaluation process, and the high number of conflicts are proposed through the model created by Fuzzy AHP-TOPSIS methods.

Objectives. A clinical case of elimination of a rare congenital pathology in a patient with a median isolated cleft lip. Congenital cleft lip is not only a functional malformation in which the structure and function of the orbicular muscle of the mouth is impaired, but also located in an aesthetically significant place that cannot be hidden from the eyes of others. Sucking disorders and aesthetic dissatisfaction are important factors for surgical intervention as soon as possible in order to avoid problems with the social adaptation of the child and his parents in society. Medical care for congenital cleft lip should be timely, highly qualified and accessible to all children in the regions, regardless of the social and financial situation of the family. Reconstructive plastic surgery of the upper lip is the only way to eliminate a congenital cleft, which affects the quality of life, social adaptation and psychological atmosphere in the family. Cheilorhinoplasty is performed at different age periods depending on the type of defect, and the technique of operations for each type of congenital facial defect has its own characteristics. In the literature, we did not find data on the frequency of the birth of children with an isolated median cleft of the upper lip, since this is a rather rare form of congenital cleft.

Purpose. Description of the stages and basic principles of cheilorhinoplasty to restore the aesthetics and functionality of the orbicular muscle of the mouth in a rare form of congenital isolated median cleft of the upper lip.

Methodology. The paper presents the results of a clinical observation of a 5-year-old patient with congenital isolated median cleft lip and the basic principles of cheilorhinoplasty.

Conclusions. There are many types of congenital cleft lip, but adhering to the basic principles above will improve the aesthetic outcome of any upper lip reconstruction technique.
METHOD OF DIAGNOSING TEMPORO-MANDIBULAR JOINT DYSFUNCTION IN PATIENTS WITH DENTOALVEOLAR ANOMALY
Authors: Myagkova Natalia , Styazhkin Nikolay
Published: November 2022

Subject. Anomalies of the dentition and deformities of the dentition in adult patients are often accompanied by disorders in the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). At present, the possibilities of diagnosing TMJ diseases have increased significantly due to the emergence and use of modern instrumental and technical methods. However, data on the optimal choice of research methods, their scope and sequence of execution in patients with TMJ diseases are not presented in the literature. The treatment of patients with dentoalveolar anomalies (DA), combined with functional disorders of the TMJ, according to many authors, presents significant difficulties. Currently, the problem of effective diagnosis of patients with AF and functional disorders of the TMJ remains an urgent problem in dentistry.

The aim of the study to develop a method for diagnosing patients with AF and functional disorders of the TMJ based on the method of M. Helkimo.

Methodology. Questioning and clinical examination of 150 patients aged 18–44 years with dentoalveolar anomalies and symptoms of temporomandibular joint dysfunction were carried out. According to the proposed diagnostic method, signs of TMJ dysfunction were determined: articular, muscular, neurological and occlusive. When identifying occlusal and muscle signs of dysfunction, an in-depth study was carried out according to the proposed scheme.

Results. Own observations and studies have shown that the system of signs of dysfunction of the temporomandibular joint can be used as a scheme for the initial examination of a patient with dento-maxillary anomalies and functional disorders of the TMJ at the dentist's appointment.

Conclusions. The proposed diagnostic method allows the dentist at the initial appointment, without using additional instrumental diagnostic methods, to determine the amount of necessary research for patients with dento-maxillary anomalies and functional disorders of the TMJ.
