Authors: Alkhutaba Malek , Halaseh Hanan , Aladwan Eman Ali , Almassarweh Sami
Published: November 2022

This study aimed to explore premenstrual disorders and their relationship to emotional and physical abuse. In addition to investigating the effect of age and marital status on the extent of prevalence of premenstrual disorders and levels of emotional and physical abuse. A sample consisting of 214 participants was randomly selected from gynecology Clinics with an age rating from 14 to 40 years. In order to data collection, the emotional and physical abuse scale and premenstrual disorders scale have been used. The findings of the study reported the mean score of the emotional and physical abuse for both father and mother models. The finding reported that the level of emotional and physical abuse was at a medium level amongst the participants in both mother and father models. Moreover, the mean score for premenstrual disorders was about normal levels among the participants. Findings also detect a poor positive correlation between the extent of prevalence of premenstrual disorders, emotional and physical abuse as self-reported by the participants. While the findings presented two significant differences related to emotional and physical abuse – the mother model based on age variables. However, the findings did not detect any significant differences regarding the effect of participants’ age on the emotional and physical abuse–father model and the prevalence of premenstrual disorders. Finally, the findings did not find any effects in emotional and physical abuse and the prevalent premenstrual disorders among the participants based on their marital status. Keywords: emotional abuse, physical abuse, premenstrual disorders

Objective: Study the upregulation of Interleukin levels and their potential role in the pathogenesis of radicular cysts Study Design: Cross-sectional study Place and Duration: Institute of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology (IMBB), The University of Lahore, (9-10 Months) Martials and Methods: Hundred samples were extracted from both diseased and healthy individuals and tissue homogenates were prepared. MDA and LPS were estimated with the help of spectrophotometric method. IL1, IL-6, TNF-α and MMP-9 were determined by their commercial ELISA kits. Results: Malondialdehyde (MDA) was significantly (p=0.033) higher (3.99±0.99 Vs .95±0.011) in diseased group as compared to control. Higher levels of IL-1 (pg/ml) (6.59±1.56 Vs 4.56±1.23), IL-6 (pg/ml) (7.65±1.41 Vs 5.99±0.219) and TNF-α (pg/ml) (31.55±4.55 Vs 20.55±3.28) were recorded in the diseased group. In the group of patients, MMP-9 remained significantly increased when compared with the healthy controls in the case of subjects it remained (93.25±6.48 ng/ml) while in controls they were (47.22±5.29 ng/ml). Likewise in the case of LPS it was significantly increased in the group of radicular cyst (17.25±4.26 pg/ml) as compared to healthy controls (125.25±9.28 pg/ml). Conclusion: Present study indicates the significant correlation of LPS with the pathogenesis of radicular cyst. Moreover, it indicates that as the oxidative stress is increased, it increases the expression of several ILs and MMP-9 that contribute in the pathogenesis of radicular cyst. Further studies may describe the role of lipopolysaccharide and other potential variables to enable better understanding about bone resorption mechanism in periapical cyst development.

Published: November 2022

Objective: The aim of this study is to examine the role of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) when detecting cerebral ischemic stroke. Study design: A cross-sectional study Place and Duration: This study was conducted at Sandeman Provincial Hospital/ Bolan medical complex hospital Quetta, Quetta from March 2021 to March 2022 Methodology: Age and gender distribution of infarcts was done to find out the territory and location of the blood vessels involved. Overall, 52 individuals were involved in this research. Every patient was clinically suspected to have a cerebral ischemic stroke during the time span of our research. HDXT software with 1.5 Tesla 16 channel GE was used to perform the MRI scans. FLAIR axial, T1WI axial, T2WI axial and coronal, ADC maps, and gradient echo axial were the sequences used. SWI was optional. Results: The age group which was above 60 years included more percentage of males than females. It was seen that in the age group above 60 years, infarction was the most common and hypertension was the most common risk factor. Hemiplegia (Weakness) was seen to be the most common clinical presentation. It was seen that middle cerebral artery (MCA) territory infarcts had a slight rise on the right side. On the diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), restricted diffusion was seen from subacute as well as acute infarcts along with a low apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC)valves. T2 FLAIR was normal in acute infarcts, but changes were reflected by DWI. Practical implication : Expanding the rationale for acute stroke thrombolysis may be more rationally accomplished by comprehending the clinical implications of numerous valuable MRI findings and thoroughly incorporating those factors into treatment decision-making. Conclusion: No radiation hazard is seen in MRI and it is non-invasive. The multiplanar imaging ability and grey-white resolution of the MRI perceive the subtle lesions. Infarcts are detected early due to the sensitivity of MRI to altered water content. Keywords: magnetic resonance imaging, stroke, cerebral infarcts,

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of anemia and intestinal parasite infection in school-going adolescent girls. Study design: A cross-sectional study Place and Duration: This study was conducted at Hamdard University of Medicine and Dentistry Karachi from march 2021 to march 2022. Methodology: There were eight schools in the research area, and three were chosen at random. Each school used universal sampling, and 250 voluntarily participating girls were included in the study. A sample of the morning's stool was taken for microscopic analysis, and hemoglobin levels were calculated. Relevant data were gathered using a structured questionnaire that had been evaluated beforehand, and SPSS version 22 was used for data analysis. Results: The most often isolated organism is Entamoeba histolytica, which is followed by Giardia intestinalis (5.2%), hookworm (4.4%), and Ascaris Lumbricoides (3.2%). A total of 36% of patients had intestinal parasite infection, according to the research. Mild, moderate, and severe anemia were found to be present in them at rates of 12.8%, 46.8%, and 25.2%, respectively, with a prevalence of anemia of 84.8%. Anemia, insufficient hand washing techniques, and intestinal parasite infection were all found to be statistically significantly correlated. Practical implication: We can minimize the likelihood of acquiring iron deficiency anaemia, which would increase the morbidity of school-going girls and increase their vulnerability to malnutrition and poor academic performance, by detecting worm infestation early on through routine screening tests. Conclusion: According to the study, female school-going children had a significant prevalence of anemia and intestinal parasite infection. Preventive interventions, such as regular deworming and health education about eating a diet that is nutritionally balanced, taking iron supplements, and practicing good personal hygiene, are required for parents and their children in order to avoid and minimize the burden of disease.

Published: November 2022

Aim: To evaluate the efficacy of HbA1c as a single diagnostic marker of Gestational Diabetes mellitus (GDM). Study Design: A retrospective study Place and Duration: This study was conducted at Ghulam Muhammad Mahar Medical College Sukkur from June 2021 to June 2022 Methodology: In this retrospective study, a non-probability technique was used. The sample size is 19,065 pregnant women divided into two groups i.e. GDM and Non-GDM.(N=3458 in group 1 and N=15,608 in group 2). This study observes different parameters and tests to evaluate the efficiency of the HbA1c test for the diagnosis of GDM. Inclusion criteria included all pregnant females older than 18 years in their 1st trimester of pregnancy (at the end of 12 weeks of pregnancy). Results: The number of females suffering from GDM is about 3458(18.1%) of the sample size. The average level of HbA1c in female patients with GDM (Group 1) is approximately higher than in female patients with Non-GDM(Group2). HbA1c-thresholds in %were seen higher in older than 24 years of females. HbA1c is significantly higher in the GDM group than in the Non-GDM group. In a sample size of GDM patients aged 35-39 showed HbA1c levels, 62.4 sensitivity and 58.6% specificity at a cut-off value of 5.% (31 mmol/mol) for GDM diagnosis. Practical implication: Because of the high sensitivity and low specificity of HbA1c for the diagnosis of GDM in pregnant women, HbA1c may be a straightforward and less invasive screening test alternative for OGTT in GDM patients. Conclusion: HbA1c test provide assistance for the diagnosis of GDM but it is not used as a measured test to diagnose diabetes in pregnant women, it provides a measured diagnosis for diabetes mellitus type 1.

The Negative Relationship Between Objectively Assessed Physical Activity and Total Smartphone Usage
Authors: Jessica Smith-Ricketts  , Andrew Lepp  , Jacob E. Barkley
Published: November 2022

Introduction: Existing evidence supports a positive relationship between smartphone use and sedentary behavior (i.e., high smartphone use is associated with high sitting). While evidence supports that smartphone use during physical activity reduces intensity, the relationship between daily smartphone use and daily physical activity is equivocal. Prior research assessing these relationships has relied on self-report survey instruments. The purpose of this research was to assess the relationship between minutes of smartphone use and physical activity (steps) using objective measures.
Methods:  College-aged individuals (N = 50) completed a brief survey assessing daily screen time (min) and daily steps for the previous 10-days. This data was obtained from participants’ smartphone applications (e.g., “Health” and “Screen Time” apps) and the relationship was assessed.
Results: There was a near moderate effect size for a negative correlation between average smartphone use and steps (r = -0.25). Mixed model regression indicated that this relationship was significant (F = 3.65, p = 0.00019).
Conclusions: The results differ from prior research which has not reported a significant relationship between smartphone use and physical activity when using self-reported survey instruments. This difference highlights the need for additional research employing objective measures when assessing relationships between smartphone use and health behaviors.

Os solos tropicais apresentam, em sua maioria, limitação nutricional. Dentre os nutrientes que apresenta maior carência estar o nitrogênio, por ser um elemento de alta mobilidade no solo e grandes perdas por lixiviação. Desta forma, o uso das espécies de Fabaceae arbóreas em sistemas de consoórcio, dentre elas a gliricídia, tem se destacado, pela alta produção de biomassa e elevado potencial de fixação biológica de nitrogênio. Objetivou-se avaliar a produção de fitomassa de gliricídia, cultivadas em aleias intercaladas com fruteiras, nas condições edafoclimáticas da Amazônia. O delineamento utilizado foi em blocos ao acaso, com cinco aléias de gliricídia, em sistema de cultivo consorciado (gliricídia + laranja + banana) e cultivo convencional (laranja). Foi quantificada a biomassa vegetal produzida pela gliricídia provenientes de duas podas e os teores de nutrientes na biomassa.  Foi obtida uma produção média de biomassa verde de 5,81 Mg.ha-1.ano-1 e 1,99 Mg.ha-1.ano-1 de matéria seca. Os nutrientes disponibilizados em maiores quantidades foram N e K. Conclui-se que as altas taxas de produção de biomassa da gliricídia favorecer em longo prazo o aumento da fertilidade do solo e a disponibilidade de nutrientes para as culturas intercalares.
Implicações da lei de proteção da vegetação nativa na regularização das áreas de preservação permanente hídricas: estudo de caso na bacia hidrográfica do Taquariantas - RS
Authors: Martens Silvano Gildo , Oliveira Celmar Correa de , Richter Lucas , Urruth Leonardo Marques
Published: November 2022

A Lei de Proteção da Vegetação Nativa (LPVN) foi editada com a promessa de unir proteção ambiental e desenvolvimento sustentável e, dentre as suas principais previsões estão as mudanças no cômputo das áreas de preservação permanente hídricas (APPH). O objetivo deste estudo foi diagnosticar a situação das APPH da Bacia Hidrográfica do Taquari-Antas (BHTA), em atendimento às regras geral e transitória da LPVN. Foram utilizadas a base de dadosdo Cadastro Ambiental Rural (CAR) e estimativas geradas a partir de mapeamento do uso e cobertura do solo, considerando para tanto o perfil fundiário dos imóveis rurais. A análise dos dados públicos extraídos do CAR referentes a APPH indicou um grau de conservação de 56,9% na BHTA, e uma redução de 45.114 ha e um déficit de 15.933 ha. Os dados autodeclarados no CAR foram comparados com estimativas geradas a partir do mapeamento do uso e cobertura do solo e revelaram quase 40.000 ha a menos de APPH em atendimento à regra geral da LPVN e aproximadamente 45.000 ha a menos se considerada a regra transitória. Ainda, foi estimado que 65,1% de APPH estão conservadas e que os mecanismos de anistia da LPVN reduziram o passivo de APPH em 39.620 ha. Mesmo assim, a BHTA ainda possui um déficit de vegetação nativa em APPH de 23.776 ha. Os resultados indicam que o quantitativo de área a ser recuperada (déficit) é diretamente proporcional ao tamanho da classe do imóvel rural, enquanto a redução da APPH é inversamente proporcional. Como resultado, conclui-se, que embora o CAR tenha o objetivo de auxiliar na gestão ambiental da propriedade rural, as informações nele armazenadas ainda carecem de confiabilidade. Além disso, priorizar a análise do CAR dos maiores imóveis como estratégia de gestão pode acelerar o processo de regularização ambiental das propriedades rurais.Palavras-chave: Lei de Proteção da Vegetação Nativa.

Materials with external dimensions of one or more nanometers are referred to as nanomaterials. These structures result from a number of manufacturing processes. They are used in many industries, including pharmaceuticals, which is the most significant one. Numerous variables, including size, shape, surface morphology, crystallinity, solubility, etc., affect physical properties. While new physical and chemical processes are being created constantly, the biological method is the ideal strategy for synthesizing nanoparticles since it is straightforward, safe, and economical. Different kinds of nanoparticles can be metabolically synthesized by a wide variety of biological sources, including plants, bacteria, fungi, and yeast. There are many biomolecules, including proteins and coenzymes, that can change the metal salts into the necessary nanoparticles. There were numerous techniques for creating RNA nanoparticles. The first tactic makes use of the natural RNA nanoparticles' collection process. The second strategy entails extending the widely used DNA nanotechnology approach to the field of RNA; the third strategy uses computational methods to produce RNA nanoparticles; and the fourth strategy uses preexisting RNA structures or those with known properties as fundamental building blocks in the synthesis of RNA nanoparticles. The purpose of this paper is to give an overview of the significance of RNA nanotechnology, a novel idea in the field of nanotechnology.

Electro-(Photo)catalysis for Concurrent Evolution of Hydrogen and High Value-Added Chemicals
Authors: Guo Shaojun
Published: November 2022

Green hydrogen (H2) has been identified as a promising alternative to fossil fuel. Compared with traditional methods, such as steam methane reforming and coal gasification, electro-(photo)catalysis of water splitting provides a clean and sustainable way to produce green H2. However, electro-(photo)catalytic water splitting still suffers from sluggish kinetics and high-power consuming. Chemical-assisted electro-(photo)catalytic water splitting, with concurrent evolution of H2 and high value-added chemicals (HVACs), has recently drawn great attention. In such system, oxygen evolution process has been replaced by small organics or other chemicals with low oxidation reaction potential to reduce the energy gap. In this review, we will review recent important advances on how to design the electro-(photo)catalytic systems for concurrent evolution of H2 and HVACs. We first introduce the design principles and fundamentals of chemical-assisted electro-/photocatalytic water splitting. Then we focus on the different reaction types at anode for electro-(photo)catalysis, in which specific chemicals, especially small molecule, can be produced from biomass, alkyl alcohols and so on, with high efficiency and selectivity, coupled with promoted H2 generation. Finally, major challenges and perspectives relevant to the catalyst design, catalytic mechanisms and application of electro-(photo)catalytic concurrent evolution of H2 and HVACs will be provided.

Millennials are branded as the most powerful consumer segment. They can even spend their entire income to purchase goods or experiences. This changed when COVID-19 hammered the world. The enthusiastic shoppers became indifferent due to uncertainties. As consumers, including the most powerful consumer segment stopped behaving the way they used to, industries around the world continue to struggle, most especially non-essential retail sectors. This study aimed to provide retailers of shopping goods information about Millennials, their spending practices, the values they have, their attitude towards pandemic protocols, and their current lifestyle. Furthermore, as this group is highly heterogeneous, this study also provided retailers newly formed segments because of COVID-19. This study is a descriptive-correlational study. The data were gathered using a hybrid survey questionnaire distributed to infrastructure Millennial workers in Region 12. The main statistical tool used was hierarchical cluster analysis. The study concluded that there are three segments: The Balanced Workers, The Independent and Efficient Workers, and The Confident Workers. These segments have different characteristics in terms of spending, values, attitude, and lifestyles. It is recommended that shopping good retailers and marketing practitioners should adjust their marketing plans and strategies to address such changes in the buying behavior.

Türk Dilinde *l Çokluk Eki
Authors: ALKAYA Ercan , YALÇIN Süleyman Kaan
Published: November 2022

Varlıkların birden fazla olma durumunu belirten çokluk kavramı, dillerde genellikle sayı kategorisi içerisinde ele alınan bir kavramdır. Çokluk kavramı dillerde ekler, sözcükler ve sözcük grupları gibi farklı yapılarla kurulan özel kategorilerdir.

Hem tarihî dönemlerde hem de çağdaş devirlerde Türk dilinin (Çuvaş Türkçesi hariç) yaygın olarak kullanılan çokluk eki +lAr’dır; ancak Türkçenin eski yazılı metinlerinden itibaren tanıklanan ve sözcüklerin kök veya gövdeleriyle kaynaştığı için çokluk eki işlevini yitirmiş olan birçok çokluk işlevli ekin varlığı, Türkçenin çokluk eki açısından zengin bir dil olduğunun göstergesidir.

Türkçede yaygın olarak kullanılan çokluk eki +lAr dışında tarihî süreç içerisinde donmuş, kaynaşmış veya aktif çokluk işlevini kaybetmiş olan +z, (+r), +gUn, +An, +lA, +t, +k, +s, +ş vb. gibi bazı eklerin varlığı son yıllarda birçok Türkoloğun dikkatini çekmiş ve araştırma konusu olmuştur.

Altay dillerinde bulunan çokluk eklerinden biri de *l çokluk ekidir. Poppe, *l çokluk ekinin Tunguzcada sistemli olarak korunduğunu (mō > mō-l “ağaçlar”; mū > mū-l “sular”, bira > bira-l “nehirler”); yazılı Moğolcada bulunmasa bile Moğolcanın en eski metinlerinde de bu yapıya rastlandığını belirtmiştir. Türkçede ise *l çokluk ekinin bu şekliyle yer almadığını; sadece +lAr çokluk ekinin bir parçası olarak *lA ekinde geçtiğini belirtmiştir.

Bu çalışmada Altay dillerinde *l’li biçimde görülen *l çokluk ekinin Türkçede de +lAr veya *lA yapısından bağımsız tıpkı Altay dillerinde olduğu gibi *l’li biçimiyle arkaik bir şekilde var olduğu ve sözcüklerle kaynaşmış olan bazı yapılarda hâlâ yaşadığı kanıtlanmaya çalışılacaktır.

Yunus Emre, eserleriyle Türkiye Türkçesinin temellerini atmış ve edebî bir dil olarak gelişmesine önemli katkılar sağlamıştır. Bir anlatıcı olarak karmaşık tasavvufî konuları, insana ve hayata dair anlaşılması zor hakikatleri, gayet açık bir üslupla ortaya koymayı başarmıştır. Eserlerine yansıttığı coşkulu samimiyeti, engin gönül dünyası ve olağanüstü üslubuyla etkisi yüzyıllarca sürecek bir Yunus Emre karakteri ve tipi ortaya koymuştur. Onun şiirlerinde kendi dilinden kendi benine yüklediği anlamı, seçtiği kelimeler ve özellikle zamirlere kazandırdığı işlevler üzerinden izlemek mümkündür. Ayrıca vahdet-i vücut düşüncesi ve derviş tipi, eserlerine yansıyan ben kavramının merkezinde yer almaktadır.
Şor Türklerinin Atasözleri
Authors: BABATÜRK Semih
Published: November 2022

Günümüzde kaybolma sürecinde olan diller arasında yer alan Şor Türkçesi Güney Sibirya topraklarında yaşayan yerli halk tarafından kullanılmaktadır. 20. Yüzyılın başlarında yazı dili olarak kullanılmış olsa da günümüzde sadece konuşma dili olarak kullanılan Şor Türkçesi büyük ölçüde Rusçanın etkisinde kalmıştır. Çünkü Şor Türklerinin yaşadıkları bölgede Rusça her alanda çok aktif bir şekilde kullanılan dildir. Hatta yeni nesillerin anadili de maalesef Rusça olmuştur. Şorca gençler arasında ikinci dil durumundadır. Bazı gençler tarafındansa hiç bilinmemektedir.

Atasözü, bir halkın manevi kültürünü, edinilen hayat tecrübesini, kültürel değerlerini, inançlarını yansıtan özel kalıp ifadelerdir. Şor Türkçesi de bu bakımdan zenginlik gösterir. Şor kültürü ve Şor dilinin söz varlığını atasözlerinde görmek mümkündür. Günümüz Türk toplulukların atasözleri üzerine pek çok bilimsel çalışma yapılmıştır. Şor Türklerinin atasözleri ile ilgili kapsamlı bir inceleme bulunmamaktadır. Çalışmada Şor Türkçesinde kullanılmakta olan atasözleri konu bakımından tasnif edildikten sonra anlam ve işlev açısından incelenmiştir. Bu atasözlerinin Türkiye Türkçesi karşılıkları parantez içinde verilmiştir. Ayrıca Şor atasözleri ile Türkiye Türkçesindeki atasözleri yapı ve anlam açısından karşılaştırılarak özellikle anlam açısından benzer olanlar belirlenmiştir.

Farklı yazılı kaynaklardan derlediğimiz Şor atasözlerini kapsamlı bir şekilde inceleyerek Şor halkının unutulmaya yüz tutan kültürü, gelenek görenekleri, dünya görüşü, düşünce yapısı hakkında çok değerli bilgiler elde edilmiştir.
Türkçe Yazılmış Arap Harfli Metinlerde Bir İmla Arayışı: Çift Hareke Kullanımı
Authors: DİNAR Talat
Published: November 2022

Sesin yazıya aktarımı için kullanılan alfabeler uzun uğraşlar neticesinde kabul görmüş sistematik bir düzen barındıran yapılardır. Alfabeler gelişim süreçleri boyunca kısmen değişimlere uğramakla birlikte kullanım yaygınlığı ile paralel olarak donuk, değişime kapalı yapılar hâlini alırlar. Bu yapıların farklı milletler tarafından benimsenmesi durumunda çeşitli sorunlar ortaya çıkabilir. Bunlardan ilki farklı bir medeniyetin alfabesini benimseyen milletlerin kendi seslerini tam olarak yazıya aktarıp aktaramama meselesidir. Türkler arasında en uzun süre kullanılan Arap alfabesi sıklıkla Türkçenin seslerini tam olarak yansıtamadığı gerekçesiyle eleştirilir. Bununla birlikte Arap alfabesi kullanımıyla süreç içerisinde oluşturulan kalıplaşmış imla geleneği de dönemin telaffuzunu yansıt(a)maz. Bundan dolayı Arap harfli metinlerde zaman zaman müellif ve müstensihlerin kalıplaşmış imla gelenekleri dışına çıkma girişimlerine şahit oluruz. Aynı harfi çift hareke ile işaretleme bizce bu girişimlerden biridir. Bu makalede Türkçe yazılmış Arap harfli metinlerde çift hareke kullanımlarına dikkat çekmeye çalışılmıştır.

The density of vehicles on roads has increased manifold over the last few decades. A seamless system to detect and track a particular vehicle can solve many problems, like traffic congestion, etc. This paper proposes the use of real-time data taken from closed-circuit televisions to detect and track the movements of vehicles. The feature extraction and classification are completely done by the process of faster RCNN (regional convolutional neural networks). The core work is based on region proposal networks. CNN furthers the generation of features; classification is done separately, but it is aided by RCNN, which includes deep learning as well as training the neural network. This is used along with the Kanade Lukas Tomasi algorithm to tack the desired features extracted. This method is simulated on MATLAB software.

Recently, in-depth learning about computer vision and object classification tasks has surpassed other machine learning (ML) algorithms. This algorithm, alike similar ML algorithms, requires a dataset for training. In most real cases, developing an appropriate dataset is expensive and time-consuming. Also, in some situations, providing the dataset is unsafe or even impossible. In this paper, we proposed a novel framework for traffic sign recognition using synthetic data and deep learning. The main feature of the proposed method is its independence from the real-life dataset, which leads to high accuracy in the real test dataset. Creating one-by-one synthetic data is more labor-intensive and costlier than providing real data. To tackle the issue, the proposed framework uses a procedural method, which gives the possibility to develop countless high-quality data that are close enough to the real data. Due to its procedural nature, this framework can be easily edited and tuned.

The role of artificial intelligence (AI) systems is constantly increasing in the creation and production of this knowledge. Software and hardware complexes of universal humanoid intelligence and artificial superintelligence are being created with maximum intensity. Progress in this field in the last 15 years is reflected precisely in the realization that the human intellect does not arise simply from a few methods and techniques for solving problems, schemes, and reasoning mechanisms, but requires the use of specific knowledge depending on the specific problem area. Education, thanks to the application of modern technologies, is no longer a privilege, but a basic human right.

Tapaus Vastaamo

Tapaustutkimus käsittelee tietomurtoa, jonka seurauksena psykoterapiakeskus Vastaamon asiakkaiden potilas- ja henkilötietoja vuodettiin verkon pimeimpiin syövereihin syksyllä 2020. Julkisen keskustelun symptomaattinen luenta osoittaa, kuinka Vastaamon tapaus nivoutuu osaksi sosiaali- ja terveyspalveluiden markkinoitumista, alustataloutta sekä valvontakapitalismia, jonka eräs merkittävin ongelma on luottamuksellisia tietoja keräävien yritysten puutteellinen sääntely. Toisin kuin julkisuudessa on esitetty, kyseessä ei ole vain yksittäinen tietomurto. Artikkeli käsittelee Vastaamon tapausta laajemmin varoittavana esimerkkinä potilas- ja henkilötietojen keräämiseen, arkistointiin ja hallinnointiin liittyvästä yhteiskunnallisesta ongelmasta. Uusliberaalien poliittisten uudistusten, datafikaation ja valvontakapitalismin sekä alustatalouden toimijoiden muovaama informaatioinfrastruktuuri on tehnyt potilastietosuojasta aiempaa haavoittuvampaa. Nykyiset poliittiset uudistukset tietomurtojen ehkäisemiseksi ovat koskeneet lähinnä kyberturvallisuutta ja tietosuojaa parantavia keinoja, kuten potilas- ja henkilötietojen valtakunnallista keskittämistä ja potilastietojärjestelmien järeämpää auditointia. Artikkelissa esitetään, että teknologisten ratkaisujen lisäksi tarvittaisiin syvempää kriittistä ymmärrystä ja yhteiskunnallista keskustelua potilas- ja henkilötietojen keräämisestä, arkistoinnista ja hallinnoinnista, jota olisi syytä valvoa aiempaa tehokkaammin yhteiskunnallisen sääntelyn purkamisen sijasta.
