Authors: ORAL Zeynep , YILDIRIM YAŞAR Ceylan
Published: November 2023

Bu çalışma, DSÖ’nün COVID-19 ile ilgili yayınlarının İstanbul Üniversitesi “COVID-19 Bilgi Seferberliği Projesi” kapsamında yapılan Türkçe çevirilerine odaklanmaktadır. Çalışmanın amacı, proje kapsamında yapılan COVID-19 çevirilerini çeviri etiği bağlamında inceleyerek çeviride etik olgusuna dikkat çekmek ve çeviriye bakışı temel alan bir etik model üzerinde düşünülmesini önermektir. Çalışmada, COVID-19 yayınlarının çevirileri betimleyici bir yaklaşımla incelenerek, çeviri etiği söylemleri çerçevesinde bir değerlendirme yapılmıştır. Kaynak metnin türü, amacı, hedef kitlesi, erek kültürdeki işlevi göz önünde bulundurularak, Chesterman tarafından ortaya konan “iletişime dayalı etik model” ile “norma dayalı etik model” çalışmadaki değerlendirmede ön planda tutulmuştur. Yapılan inceleme neticesinde, proje kapsamında çevrilen dört DSÖ yayınının COVID-19 ile ilgili bilgilendirici metinler olduğu, yayınlardan birinin sağlık çalışanlarına diğer üçünün ise halkı içine alan geniş bir kitleye hitap ettiği görülmüştür. Çeviriler “iletişime dayalı etik model” ile “norma dayalı etik model” kapsamında değerlendirildiğinde, sağlık çalışanlarını bilgilendiren COVID-19 yayınının çevirisinde yabancı terimlerin kullanılması hedef kitle için sorun teşkil etmezken halka hitap eden diğer üç COVID-19 yayınının çevirisinde yabancı terimlerin kullanımının hedef kitle için açıklık ve anlaşılırlık açısından sorun teşkil edebileceğini söylemek mümkündür. Ayrıca, kaynak metinde tekrarlayan ifadelerin çeviride bazen farklı çevrilmesi, projede ortak çeviri kararlarının benimsenip benimsenmediğiyle ilgili bir sorgulamaya neden olmuştur. Ek olarak, çeviride ilgili kararların alınma gerekçelerine ilişkin açıklama, önsöz vb. bir bilgilendirmeye yer verilmemiştir. Sonuç olarak, üst dil ve teknik terimler içeren bu tür bilgilendirici metinlerdeki söylemin oluşturulmasında alan uzmanları, dilbilimciler ve çeviribilimcilerin eşgüdümlü sürece dâhil olması açıklık, doğruluk, erişilebilirlik, normlara uygunluk vb. değerler açısından bazı etik sorunların çözümüne katkı sunabilir.

Introduction: Several nations around the world had to close schools, colleges, universities, and other educational institutions as they were badly affected by the spread of COVID-19. The purpose of this study was to measure the effectiveness of online vs physical teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic, at the Faculty of Allied Health Sciences (FAHS), University of Ruhuna (UoR) Sri Lanka.
Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 200 undergraduates. The data were collected through displayed/approved results sheets of the students of selected batches in the Department of Nursing, Department of Pharmacy, and Medical Laboratory Science (MLS). Paired sample T-test was used to compare the results of undergraduates.
Results: The examination results of 47-54 undergraduates in nursing, 28 in pharmacy, and 22 in MLS were analysed. Significant differences in Psychiatry in Nursing and Nursing Clinical Attachment were identified in the Department of Nursing (p=0.001). In the Department of Pharmacy, only Pharmaceutical Chemistry I (p=0.012) reported a significant difference. The undergraduates of MLS who underwent online theory sessions had scored more in Microbiology and Immunology (p=0.022) and Basic Genetics and Molecular Biology (p=0.000) whereas in Research Methodology and Epidemiology, the undergraduates who participated in physical lectures had scored more marks (p=0.001).
Conclusion: Practical/interactive session-based course units and clinical appointments had a higher impact on the mode of teaching than many theoretical course units. The results might serve as a primer for the creation of an action plan to support the academics and clinical/practical components of undergraduates.

Published: November 2023

The study tests the moderating effect of monitoring on the corporate tax avoidance- shareholdersâ€™ returns nexus in quoted Nigerian firms. Using an ex-post facto design, annual financial data were collected from 54 non-financial firms from various sectors of the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE). Analyses were carried out involving the Ordinary Least Square (OLS) regression within the framework of E-view 9.0. The study demonstrates that corporate tax avoidance positively impacts shareholders returns in quoted non-financial firms in Nigeria and the effect is improved with better monitoring mechanism in place. We also observe improvement in the liquidity, profitability, expected growth and tangibility of the sampled firms when tax avoidance behavior are well monitored. We recommend among other things that shareholders put in place a monitor mechanism to check management in the use of tax savings to ensure it is in shareholdersâ€™ interest.

The phytochemicals and antimicrobial activity of coconut water on microbial pathogens were investigated for its medicinal potential. In this study, coconut water and selected test microbial pathogens; Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Klebsiella spp were used. The phytochemical screening and antimicrobial activities of the coconut water against the selected test microbial pathogens were determined using standard method and paper disc diffusion method respectively. The study revealed the presence of flavonoids, tannins, phenols, anthocyanins, terpenoids, and alkaloids as phytochemicals detected. Quantitative phytochemical constituents revealed 0.822±0.11mg of total phenols compound and total flavonoids compound of 25.44±3.68 of the coconut water. With the positve control antibiotic (ciprofloxacin), Klebsiella spp exhibited the highest zone of inhibition of 23mm while the least zone of inhibition was observed with Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli at 20mm respectively. The antimicrobial efficacy of the coconut water was significantly lower when compared with the positive control(ciprofloxacin) at 30mg/ml against the test bacteria but higher at an increased concentration of 60mg/ml with Staphylococcus aureus having the highest zone of inhibiton of 28mm while Pseudomonas aeruginosa showed the least zone of inhibition at 21mm. Moreover, the inhibitory activity exhibited by coconut water against these bacterial pathogens is an indication of the presence of bioactive compounds that can be harnessed and used for further medical research.

Published: November 2023

Purpose - a comparative pharmacoeconomic analysis of starting doses of antibiotic therapy for community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) to calculate budgetary funds and correct the prescription of antibacterial drugs at the level of medical institutions. The design of the study was a retrospective analysis of prescriptions from the medical records of patients in the treatment of CAP who were treated in multidisciplinary medical organizations providing inpatient care. Information from the patients’ medical records was entered into registration cards specially designed for this study. The research horizon is 2 years. Pharmacoeconomic analysis was carried out using methods: frequency analysis, disease cost analysis, cost minimization analysis, cost-effectiveness analysis. The calculations took into account direct medical and non-medical and indirect costs. Analysis of the frequency of appointments showed that one strategy prevailed - the appointment of a combination of ceftriaxone + azithromycin - 76% (n=39). At the same time, this strategy was effective in 74% of cases (n=29). This strategy is consistent with approved clinical guidelines for the treatment of lower respiratory tract infections. In second place in terms of the frequency of prescriptions is the strategy of monotherapy with ceftriaxone 9.8% (n=5), while in one case of prescription, azithromycin was added to ceftriaxone after 2 days of use, which can also be attributed to one therapy strategy and the treatment is considered effective. The effectiveness of the ceftriaxone treatment strategy showed its effectiveness in 80% (n=4). The structure of costs in the treatment of CAP by various strategies is similar and, in general, the strategies differ only in the greater cost of drugs for combined antibiotic therapy. The average cost of CAP treatment per patient was 37,740.50 rubles, including the cost of antibiotic therapy, which is al- most 12% of the total cost of treatment. The cost of treating CAP with the combination of ceftriaxone + azithromycin was 34232.79±4815 rubles, with ceftriaxone - 19922.08±72940 rubles. The dominant strategy for the treatment of community-acquired pneumonia in young patients was revealed - the combination of ceftriaxone + azithromycin, ceftriaxone monotherapy is also prescribed, which corresponds to current clinical guidelines and treatment protocols. This conclusion coincides with the results of previous studies on the frequency of use of antibacterial drugs in Russia. The administration of ceftriaxone and its combination with azithromycin also proved to be the most effective empiric therapy strategy with the fewest adverse reactions.
Influence of early pathogenic factors on the subsequent development of preschool children with disabilities
Authors: Danilina Ekaterina Vladimirovna
Published: November 2023

The aim of the study is to identify the subsequent influence of pathogenic factors that arose at the initial stages of ontogenesis on the formation of psychophysical, cognitive, speech and intellectual activity with further integration into society of children with disabilities. The paper interprets the results of research on the pathogenic factors in the early period of children’s development that negatively affect personal and social well-being during the subsequent stages of development of preschoolers belonging to various nosological categories. Both theoretical and practical questions about the system of early detection of abnormalities as an increased source of risk for the occurrence of impaired development in children are considered. Scientific novelty of the study lies in the following: it is the first time that modern data on the unequal influence of early pathogenic factors with selective significance on the formation of psychophysical, intellectual, speech, behavioral and sensory functions of children with disabilities belonging to different nosological categories have been obtained. A step-by-step program has been developed to support children with disabilities in the process of education and training in a preschool education institution. As a result, reliable information regarding the influence of each individual pathogenic factor of early dysontogenesis, which adversely affected the full development during preschool years at the present stage, identified in the anamnesis of children with disabilities has been analyzed. This aspect of the study will help to develop and select in a timely manner a set of rehabilitation measures, effective correctional care to prevent the occurrence and appearance of secondary pathologies.

Published: November 2023

The aim of the paper is to identify the potential of the prefixal word-formation model with the meaning of negation ‘contra-’ in the formation of new lexical units in the modern discourse of the English language. The study is the first to describe the results of using the prefixal word-formation model with the meaning of negation ‘contra-’ when expanding the vocabulary of modern English in such branches of human activity as medicine, chemistry and technical sciences due to the current trend of new vocabulary formation in this way in the specified language. The paper sheds light on the trajectory of development of the prefixal word-formation model with the meaning of negation ‘contra-’ starting from ancient times and ending with the modern period. As a result of the etymological analysis, the root basis in the Latin language is traced, which subsequently contributed to its use in the word-formation model based on the prefix ‘contra-’ in the modern discourse of the English language. Further study of the word-formation model based on the prefix ‘contra-’ showed its productivity in generating a wide layer of vocabulary in various fields of human activity, in particular in medicine, economics, law, engineering, chemistry, radio electronics and others.

The monograph offers the reception of the established practice of Russian and foreign studies carried out in the 1970s-2000s and the latest approaches based on the prose of the Khanty prose writer Yeremey Aipin. A wide range of analysis and the “ethnocultural” optics of the authoring team’s view of Aipin’s creative work determined the concept of the study: the first chapter contains an overview of methodological approaches in the study of the literature of Siberian peoples; the second one is devoted to the analysis of the Khanty writer’s prose as an artistic whole and its genre content; the final chapter examines the “ontological constants” in the works of the Khanty writer from the perspective of the prose traditions characteristic of the “classics of the empire”, i.e., Chinghiz Aitmatov, Vasily Belov, etc.
Prediction of Russia’s future in P. N. Krasnov’s utopia
Authors: Azarov Yuri Alexeevich
Published: November 2023

The aim of the research is to highlight the problems characteristic of the Russian utopia of the past in P. N. Krasnov’s speculative fiction novels: the collective image of an “enlightened monarch” capable of building a just society, the need for social transformations, the theme of rearing the “new man”, etc. Utopia has a long history in Russian literature, dating back to the 18th century. It was then that it began to be perceived as an independent literary genre. Most vividly the problems characteristic of utopia were embodied in the speculative fiction novel “Behind the Thistle”, in which the author attempted to describe the perfect state, predicting the revival of Russia on the basis of unlimited imperial power. It is noted that in P. N. Krasnov’s writings, elements of utopia are also found in the novels “The White Coat” and “Feat”, dedicated to the theme of the anti-Bolshevik struggle outlined in the novel “Behind the Thistle”. P. N. Krasnov’s works had not been considered before from this point of view, which led to the results determining the scientific originality of the research undertaken. The research findings indicate that the writer, while creating an image of the future in a different historical situation and predicting various ways of changing reality, nevertheless remained in the framework of the socio-political utopia traditional for Russian literature.

Published: November 2023

Panel data is a combination of cross-section data and time-series data. The panel data regression can model the panel data. In its development, panel data regression has been developed to model spatial data, called panel data spatial regression. Spatial data is data that considers the empirical observations and considers the location factor of these observations. This study examines the spatial regression modeling of panel data and applies it to model the factors that influence the Human Development Index (HDI) of districts/cities in East Kalimantan Province from 2017 to 2020. HDI is a composite index that measures the average achievement in the three basic dimensions of human development that are considered very basic, namely life expectancy, knowledge, and a decent standard of living. HDI is one of the measuring tools considered to reflect the status of human development in a region and plays an essential role in improving the quality of human resources. The results show that the panel data spatial regression model suitable for modeling the HDI of districts/cities in East Kalimantan Province from 2017 to 2020 is the Spatial Autoregressive Fixed Effect (SAR-FE) model. The rate of economic growth and the district/city minimum wage factors that significantly influence the HDI of districts/cities in East Kalimantan Province from 2017 to 2020 based on the SAR-FE model is the rate of economic growth and the district/city minimum wage.

The clustering method used in this research is Fuzzy C-Means (FCM). FCM is a data grouping technique in which the existence of each data point in a cluster is determined by the degree of membership. To optimize the grouping results, it is necessary to validate the number of clusters using Partition Coefficient (PC). The purpose of this study is to obtain optimal grouping results from the FCM method using the PC validity indices from the people's welfare indicator data in 56 regencies/cities on the island of Kalimantan in 2020. Based on the results of the analysis, the conclusion is that the optimal number of clusters is three clusters. The first cluster consists of 24 regencies/cities on the island of Kalimantan, the second cluster consists of 17 regencies/cities on the island of Kalimantan, and the third cluster consists of 15 regencies/cities on the island of Kalimantan.
Transformation of the Acoustic Amplifier into a Modular Structure

Published: November 2023

The modular concept of device construction is most often based on the results of economic analyses. It allows lowering both manufacturing and design costs. It also improves their operating characteristics, in particular their repairability. It also happens that the modular structure of a consumer product is used to strengthen its market position. The authors of the article faced such a situation. The management of a company producing audiophile equipment decided to offer its potential customers an acoustic amplifier in which the user would be able to replace the preamplifiers himself, depending on the requirements related to the input signal. This type of modularity is known as "component swapping." Before commencing the development of the structure, detailed analyses of the benefits and potential risks related to the individual stages of the product's life cycle were carried out: design, production and operation. On this basis, the "Divaldi" company, the manufacturer of the equipment, developed assumptions regarding the designed amplifier. In particular, it was considered that the modular system would be built by modifying the existing, successful design of the INT-02 amplifier. The modification will enable easy replacement of the two preamplifier sections. Users will have a choice of classic preamplifiers: line and phono, as well as modules integrated with an analogue-to-digital converter and a module with a Bluetooth receiver. A low-volume production was assumed from previously manufactured and stored components: the base and typical preamplifier sections. As for the exploitation stage, the possibility of self-replacement of modules by the user has been adopted. Based on these assumptions, the concept of an amplifier with two identical pockets was proposed, enabling the simultaneous installation and use of two preamplifier sect ions. Detailed requirements for interfaces between the modules and the base unit were formulated: mechanical and electrical. A review of the available types of signal connectors led to the selection of the PCIe connector as the one that best meets the technical and economic criteria. From the mechanical side, it was proposed to use sliding guides, guaranteeing proper positioning of the modules in the pockets of the base. After selecting and approving the solutions, constructions of the mechanical components of the system were developed, creating a new standard: frame, module pockets and preamplifier module. The successful implementation of the amplifier's modularity became the basis for formulating proposals for further modifications of the design to meet the growing requirements of users who expect more and more possibilities to adapt the structure and interfaces of devices to their own needs.

Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3) is a prominent member of the Toll-like receptor (TLR) family and has the ability to recognize and bind intracellular double-stranded RNA (dsRNA). Once triggered by a viral infection or other pathological condition, TLR3 activates immune cells and induces the production of interferons and other immune response molecules. Additionally, TLR3 is considered an important immune modulator, as it can regulate cell apoptosis and promote anticancer immunity. The investigation and application of TLR3 agonists in digestive system tumors have attracted widespread attention and are regarded as a promising cancer treatment strategy with potential clinical applications. TLR3 expression levels are generally elevated in most digestive system tumors, and higher TLR3 expression is associated with a better prognosis. Therefore, TLR3 has emerged as a novel therapeutic target for digestive system tumors. It has been used in combination with chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and targeted therapy and demonstrated excellent efficacy and tolerability. This has provided new ideas and hopes for the treatment of digestive system tumors. This review discusses the mechanisms of TLR3 and its frontier research in digestive system tumors.

Background: Severe peripheral nerve injuries, such as deficits over long distances or proximal nerve trunk injuries, pose complex reconstruction challenges that often result in unfavorable outcomes. An innovative approach to repairing severe peripheral nerve damage involves using conduit suturing for nerve transposition repair. Cylindrical nerve guides are typically unsuitable for nerve transposition repair. Moreover, postsurgical adjuvant treatment is essential to promote the development of axonal lateral sprouts, proximal growth, and the restoration of neurostructure and function. The purpose of this research is to assess the impact of chitosan-based conduits with varying inner diameters on nerve transposition repair when combined with modified formula Radix Hedysari (MFRH). Methods: Using chitosan, we created conduits with varying inner diameters on both ends. These conduits were then utilized to repair the distal common peroneal and tibial nerves in SD rats using the proximal common peroneal nerve. Subsequently, MFRH was employed as a supplementary treatment. The assessment of the repair’s effectiveness took place 16 weeks postsurgery, utilizing a range of techniques, including the neurological nerve function index, neuroelectrophysiological measurements, muscle wet weight, and examination of nerve and muscle histology. Results: The outcomes of our study showed that following 16 weeks of postoperative treatment, MFRH had a significant positive impact on the recovery of neuromotor and nerve conduction abilities. Moreover, there was a significant increase in the ratio of wet weight of muscles, cross-sectional area of muscle fibers, quantity and structure of regenerated myelinated nerve fibers, and the count of neurons. Conclusions: A combination of chitosan-based chitin conduits possessing different inner diameters and MFRH can considerably promote the regeneration and functional recovery of damaged nerves, which in turn enhances nerve transposition repair efficacy.

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer and one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Seriously threatens human life and health. Previous studies have identified that inhibin βA (INHBA) could induce tumorgenesis and progression of CRC through the regulation of the TGF-β/Smad signal axis. The abnormal expression of INHBA is related to the poor prognosis of patients. The aim of this study was to identify the molecular mechanism of HNF1A-AS1 and miR-214 regulating INHBA and carcinogenesis through bioinformatics combined with experiments. Methods: The expression of HNF1A-AS1, miRNA-214-5p, INHBA in pan-cancer and CRC were investigated in the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). The correlation between HNF1A-AS1 and immune-related genes or miRNAs was explored via the Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis (GEPIA) and volcano plots, respectively. The association between HNF1A-AS1 and differentially expressed miRNAs was constructed by TargetScan. The miRDB, miRWalk, and TargetScan databases were utilized to predict the target genes of hsa-miR-214. The expression of INHBA in tissues and cell lines of CRC was examined by RT-qPCR and western blot assay. Results: The INHBA and HNF1A-AS1 expressions were increased in Colon adenocarcinoma (COAD) and Rectum adenocarcinoma (READ) of the TCGA database. Hsa-miR-214 was relatively less expressed in CRC tissues compared with para-cancer tissues. The expression of HNF1A-AS1 was negatively correlated with hsa-miR-214. INHBA was one of the target genes of hsa-miR-214 based on miRDB, miRWalk, and TargetScan databases. The specific binding sites of INHBA-3’UTR and miR-214-5p were identified by starBase. The expression level of INHBA was positively correlated with the T stage of tumor and negatively correlated with overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) in CRC patients. The results of RT-qPCR and western blot indicated that the expression of INHBA in tissues and cell lines in CRC was higher than those in para-carcinoma tissues and normal colon cell lines, respectively. Conclusions: These findings suggested that HNF1A-AS1 and miRNA-214-5p were key upstream non-coding RNAs of INHBA. The HNF1A-AS1/miR-214/INHBA signal axis plays a significant role in the tumorgenesis and progression of CRC. By interfering with HNF1A-AS1 and INHBA genes on HT29 and SW480 cells, it was found that HNF1A-AS1 and INHBA genes may be important target genes in CRC.

Computational thinking has become part of the mathematics curriculum in several countries. This has led recently available teaching resources to explicitly integrate computational thinking (CT). In this paper, we investigate and compare how curriculum resources developed in Denmark — digital teaching modules — and Sweden — printed mathematics textbooks — have incorporated CT in mathematics for grades 1–6 (age 7–12). Specifically, we identify and compare the CT and mathematical concepts, actions, and combinations in tasks within these resources. Our analysis reveals that Danish tasks are oriented toward CT concepts related to data, actions related to programming, and mathematical concepts within statistics. This is different from Swedish tasks, which are oriented toward CT concepts related to instructions and commands, actions related to following stepwise procedures, and mathematical concepts related to patterns. Moreover, what is most dominant in one country is almost or completely absent in the other. We conclude the paper by contrasting these two approaches with existing knowledge on computational thinking in school mathematics.
