Judykatywa na straży zasady sprawiedliwości Zakres władzy sądów w kształtowaniu prawa na przykładzie orzeczenia Najwyższego Sądu Rzeszy z dnia 28 listopada 1923 roku i teorii Ericha Kaufmanna
Authors: Ochmański Jerzy W.
Published: May 2022

Współcześnie jako oczywisty wydaje się fakt istnienia silnych związków politycznych pomiędzy legislatywą a egzekutywą; w sytuacji natomiast pojawiania się tyranii większości parlamentarnej rząd pozbawiony jest de facto  przymiotu względnej choćby niezależności od partyjnej „góry”. Wola polityczna, której źródłem jest naród ulega zniekształceniu: parlament i rząd realizują cele własne w oderwaniu od nie tylko jakiegoś abstrakcyjnie wyobrażalnego interesu publicznego ale i  od zasad porządku określonego w konstytucji. Funkcję korygującą egzekutywę i legislatywę zatem z natury rzeczy musi pełnić władza judykatywy. Sędziowskie prawo do kontroli ustaw ujawniło się w orzeczeniu Najwyższego Sądu Rzeszy z 28 XI 1923 r. Teoretyczne uzasadnienie władzy sędziów i sądów pochodziło od Ericha Kaufmanna.
Childlessness Among Heterosexual Partnered Individuals: Register-Based Evidence from the Finnish Cohorts Born 1952–1966
Authors: Saarela Jan , Hardy Melissa , Skirbekk Vegard
Published: May 2022

Finland has been a demographic forerunner in terms of the adoption of new family forms as well as family friendly social policies. Childlessness has nevertheless grown and, is high compared to many other countries. A large and increasing share of all persons who live in unions are childless. Using population-register data for the cohorts born 1952–1966, we study persons who were partnered at age 45 (n = 44,321). The aim is to analyse how marital status and union duration, together with socioeconomic characteristics of the ego and the partner, relate to the probability of being childless at 45. Logistic regression models are estimated separately for women and men, using a 10-year retrospective window. We find for both men and women, the strongest marker for being a parent by age 45 is whether they are married and had lived with the same partner for at least ten years. Shorter union durations and cohabitations are associated with a several-fold increase in the likelihood of being childless. Socioeconomic characteristics are relevant as well, but notably less important in terms of estimated effect sizes. Future research on this topic should tentatively be concerned with how childlessness relates to transitions into, from, and across unions.

Infraestrutura de saneamento básico da população indígena urbana no Brasil: 2016 a 2019
Authors: Da Cunha Barbara Coelho Barbosa , Raupp Ludimila
Published: May 2022

Analisou-se a presença do saneamento básico nas áreas urbanas do Brasil, segundo cor / raça, a partir dos dados da Pesquisa Nacional por Amostra de Domicílios Contínua (PNADc), 2016-2019. Utilizou-se, além da estatística descritiva, regressão logística múltipla (RLM) ajustada, a fim de comparar a presença da infraestrutura sanitária entre indígenas e não indígenas. Os resultados apontam menores percentuais dos serviços de saneamento entre domicílios pretos e indígenas, particularmente para o esgotamento sanitário no Norte. Das 96 comparações realizadas através de RLM no tocante à presença da infraestrutura sanitária, em 78,1 % não houve diferença significativa entre indígenas e não indígenas, em 18,8 % os domicílios indígenas apresentaram vantagem estatística significativa e, em 3,1 % os indígenas estavam em desvantagem. Como conclusão, verifica-se a permanência da não universalização dos serviços de saneamento. Além disso, os resultados sugerem diminuição das iniquidades relacionadas ao saneamento básico entre indígenas e não indígenas.

Observações acerca do rendimento no voleibol feminino de alto nível
Authors: Agricola Nestor Persio Alvim , Lacerda Paulo José Cabral , Lopes Chaysther De Andrade , Carvalho Layane De Souza
Published: May 2022

Este texto é uma análise do voleibol feminino de alto rendimento a partir de quatro parâmetros específicos: o tempo de rally, o erro de saque, a estatura e o desempenho das jogadoras. Este estudo é de caráter transversal, quantitativo, descritivo e faz uso de banco de dados já disponível. As possibilidades de prever bons resultados são a força motivadora de estudos voltados para o desempenho nos esportes. Dentre as conclusões, a análise sugere que as jogadoras de voleibol de alto rendimento estão sujeitas a fortes pressões por bons resultados. Tanto os desempenhos espetaculares quanto os desempenhos fracos, abaixo do esperado, são em grande medida fruto dessas pressões a que a jogadora está submetida e em muitos casos impõe os limites da própria carreira da jogadora.

Utility of intraoperative neuromonitoring for decompression of Chiari type I malformation in 93 adult patients
Authors: Schaefer Joseph , Atallah Elias , Tecce Eric , Thalheimer Sara , Harrop James , Heller Joshua E.
Published: May 2022

OBJECTIVE

There is currently a lack of consensus on the utility of intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) for decompression of Chiari type I malformation (CM-I). Commonly used monitoring modalities include somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEPs), motor evoked potentials (MEPs), and brainstem auditory evoked potentials (BAEPs). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the utility of IONM in preventing neurological injury for CM-I decompression.

METHODS

The authors conducted a retrospective study of a population of adult patients (ages 17–76 years) diagnosed with CM-I between 2013 and 2021. IONM modalities included SSEPs, MEPs, and/or BAEPs. Prepositioning baseline signals and operative alerts of significant signal attenuation were recorded.

RESULTS

Ninety-three patients (average age 38.4 ± 14.6 years) underwent a suboccipital craniectomy for CM-I decompression. Eighty-two (88.2%) of 93 patients underwent C1 laminectomy, 8 (8.6%) underwent C1 and C2 laminectomy, and 4 (4.3%) underwent suboccipital craniectomy with concomitant cervical decompression and fusion in the setting of degenerative cervical spondylosis. Radiographically, the average cerebellar tonsillar ectopia/descent was 1.1 ± 0.5 cm and 53 (57.0%) of 93 patients presented with a syrinx. The average number of vertebral levels traversed by the syrinx was 5.3 ± 3.5, and the average maximum width of the syrinx was 5.8 ± 3.3 mm. There was one instance (1/93, 1.1%) of an MEP alert, which resolved spontaneously after 10 minutes in a patient who had concomitant stenosis due to pannus formation at C1–2. No patient developed a permanent neurological complication.

CONCLUSIONS

There were no permanent complications related to intraoperative neurological injury. Transient fluctuations in IONM signals can be detected without clinical significance. The authors suggest that CM-I suboccipital decompression surgery may be performed safely without IONM. The use of IONM in patients with additional occipitocervical pathology should be left as an option to the performing surgeon on a case-by-case basis.
A quantitative model to differentiate nonaneurysmal perimesencephalic subarachnoid hemorrhage from aneurysmal etiology
Authors: Mandel Daniel , Moody Scott , Pan Kelly , Subramaniam Thanujaa , Thompson Bradford B. , Wendell Linda C. , Reznik Michael E. , Furie Karen L. , Mahta Ali
Published: May 2022

OBJECTIVE

Nonaneurysmal perimesencephalic subarachnoid hemorrhage (pmSAH) is considered to have a lower-risk pattern than other types of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). However, a minority of patients with pmSAH may harbor a causative posterior circulation aneurysm. To exclude this possibility, many institutions pursue exhaustive imaging. In this study the authors aimed to develop a novel predictive model based on initial noncontrast head CT (NCHCT) features to differentiate pmSAH from aneurysmal causes.

METHODS

The authors retrospectively reviewed patients admitted to an academic center for treatment of a suspected aneurysmal SAH (aSAH) during the period from 2016 to 2021. Patients with a final diagnosis of pmSAH or posterior circulation aSAH were included. Using NCHCT, the thickness (continuous variable) and location of blood in basal cisterns and sylvian fissures (categorical variables) were compared between groups. A scoring system was created using features that were significantly different between groups. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was used to measure the accuracy of this model in predicting aneurysmal etiology. A separate patient cohort was used for external validation of this model.

RESULTS

Of 420 SAH cases, 48 patients with pmSAH and 37 with posterior circulation aSAH were identified. Blood thickness measurements in the crural and ambient cisterns and interhemispheric and sylvian fissures and degree of extension into the sylvian fissure were all significantly different between groups (all p < 0.001). The authors developed a 10-point scoring model to predict aneurysmal causes with high accuracy (area under the curve [AUC] 0.99; 95% CI 0.98–1.00; OR per point increase 10; 95% CI 2.18–46.4). External validation resulted in persistently high accuracy (AUC 0.97; 95% CI 0.92–1.00) of this model.

CONCLUSIONS

A risk stratification score using initial blood clot burden may accurately differentiate between aneurysmal and nonaneurysmal pmSAH. Larger prospective studies are encouraged to further validate this quantitative tool.

Теоретичні та методичні основи фундаменталізації навчання інформатичних дисциплін у вищій школі
Authors: Семеріков Сергій Олексійович , Теплицький Ілля Олександрович
Published: May 2022

Головні освітні тенденції 90-х рр. минулого століття – диференціація та спеціалізація навчання – виникли як відповідь на соціально зумовлену потребу ринкового суспільства знизити навчальне навантаження на студента та інтенсифікувати процес навчання у вищій школі з метою найшвидшого залучення молодої людини до суспільно-економічного життя. Проте в умовах ускладнення виробництва, прискорення науковотехнічного прогресу та формування інформаційного суспільства вузькоспеціалізовані фахівці, підготовлені за скороченою програмою, швидко переставали б бути конкурентоспроможними на ринку праці. При цьому на початку ХХІ століття екстенсивними шляхом – подовженням терміну навчання та ускладненням навчального матеріалу – так і не вдалося розв’язати проблему швидкого застарівання знань, яка особливо гостро постала у сфері високих технологій – отримання нових матеріалів та здобування нових знань.

Authors: Flehantov Leonid , Ovsiienko Yuliia
Published: May 2022

The main objective of this study is testing the hypothesis that the visualization of simulation results creates the conditions for improving students’ knowledge, taking into account the specifics of their professional training. In this article we are exploring how the simultaneous use of Excel and GeoGebra can improve the learning outcomes of engineering students in agricultural universities when learning the basics of mathematical modeling (using as example the mathematical model of mechanical movement of two bodies with their elastic collision). We worked with our students as follows. First, we build and interpret the mathematical model. Then we obtain two alternative computer models: we use Excel spreadsheets for numerical modeling as well as GeoGebra software for analytical-geometrical modeling. By this models we visualize and explore the processes closely related to topics that plays an important role in the training of agricultural production engineers, in particular, with study the movement and interaction of particles during the loading / unloading of seeds, the description of industrial processes of seed scarification, with study of the movement of particles of yeast suspension in a plate separators, modeling the processes of shot-blast cleaning of metal surfaces etc. We have tested this approach in teaching the 163 students enrolled in the specialties “Agroengineering” and “Industry Engineering” in Poltava State Agrarian Academy. According to data we collected our students demonstrated a better understanding of the conceptual issues of mathematical modeling and acquired significant abilities in using this method to solve real problems.

Authors: MOKRYNSKA Zoriana , BOROVYK Iryna ,   National Aviation University
Published: May 2022

Dissemination of information on the principles of sustainable development implemented in the activities of enterprises and the results of non-financial reporting is usually through the web pages of enterprises. However, this is not the only platform for disseminating such information. Therefore, this article describes the main international platforms that can be used by enterprises. The dynamics of the number of non-financial reports in some European countries and Ukraine is analyzed. Trends and dynamics of the publication of certified non-financial reports in the world and Ukraine are determined. The article summarizes information on major competitions and awards for sustainable development cases and the best non-financial reports. In particular, the results of the selection of the best reports on sustainable development of the CR Reporting Awards 2021 are presented. The article presents the stages of this award, the criteria for selecting non-financial reports and the main nominations. The impact of COVID-19 on non-financial reporting of leading domestic enterprises is analyzed. It has been established that practical social cases related to the pandemic should be identified in the non-financial reporting of enterprises in the following areas: response to COVID-19, support during the pandemic, recovery and sustainability. Information on the results of the impact of COVID-19 on the indicators reflected in the non-financial statements is described. Our paper identifies shifts in the non-financial reporting of enterprises that, due to the pandemic impact, are more focused on social issues such as employee welfare, social welfare, occupational health and safety, and integration and equality. The need to provide reliable information presented in non-financial reporting in a pandemic is objectively justified by the need to increase the demand for social information. During various unforeseen crises, the information interests of stakeholders change. Therefore, to ensure sustainable development, the company needs to provide relevant social information reflected in non-financial statements that will maintain the trust of key stakeholders.

Published: May 2022

Based on the scientific views of scientists and practitioners identified the main purpose of the concept of financial and economic security of socio-economic systems, including higher education institutions. The urgency of ensuring the financial and economic security of domestic higher education institutions is primarily due to the following factors: maintaining financially effective resilience to external and internal stimuli and threats; improving the efficiency of management; ensuring the optimal number of of teaching staff; minimizing the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and military aggression by the Russian Federation; the need to protect the information space of participants in the educational process; ensuring a high level of qualification of scientific, pedagogical and support staff; increasing the competition of graduates of higher education institutions. The authors present their own views on the separation of components of financial and economic security of higher education institutions that are responsible for various areas of operation and their constituent objects, such as: intellectual and personnel, technical and technological, financial and investment, material and technical, information and communication, regulatory, educational and methodical, socio-cultural, security, energy, economic areas. In the article the authors formed tasks, criteria and indicators, objects and subjects, measures and principles of provision, components of evaluation and built an algorithm to increase the level of financial and economic security of socio-economic systems, on the example of higher education institutions. The algorithm presented by the authors contains 5 adjustment tools (feedbacks): adjusting the structure of negative factors in determining their structure and their distribution according to subjective and objective criteria; adjustment of the developed preventive measures during their development and implementation; adjustment after analysis of the functional results of the implemented measures; adjustments in assessing the economic efficiency of the implemented measures; maintaining a sufficient level of financial and economic security to adapt to changes in the internal and external environment of higher education institution.

Authors: Laurençot Philippe , Matioc Bogdan-Vasile
Published: May 2022

The singular limit of the thin film Muskat problem is performed when the density (and possibly the viscosity) of the lighter fluid vanishes and the porous medium equation is identified as the limit problem. In particular, the height of the denser fluid is shown to converge towards the solution to the porous medium equation and an explicit rate for this convergence is provided in space dimension [Formula: see text]. Moreover, the limit of the height of the lighter fluid is determined in a certain regime and is given by the corresponding initial condition.

Authors: Jibril Kassem , Safari Ali , Shahin Arash , Hamdan Mahmoud
Published: May 2022

PURPOSE: This study aims to bridge the literature gap and provide a comprehensive and clear vision of managing Human Capital risk through an easy-to-apply risk management methodology. In addition, to provide an integrated process to manage Human Capital risks. METHODOLOGY: This paper conducted a mixed-method approach; risks were gathered by analyzing 14 semi-structured interviews with corporate leaders and HR expertise in 14 ICT companies in Isfahan. In the quantitative phase, variables were assessed by two methods; FMEA and Fuzzy analysis in 14 companies. FINDINGS: Results show that despite realizing the importance of human capital in achieving goals and competitiveness, companies are not ready to mitigate the Human Capital risks. Detected Risks are divided into behavioural and attitudinal risks. The Employees’ demotivation, Leaving work after receiving the required training, and Lack of commitment to the delivery time or quality are the most urgent risks that should be mitigated as prior in the ICT companies in Isfahan. ORIGINALITY: This paper is one of the few studies that holistically dealt with Human Capital risks by providing practical and managerial strategies and recommendations to mitigate the risk exposure. This paper is also one of the leading studies in introducing the FMEA method in measuring this type of risk.
Neighborhood Social Cohesion and Dementia-Related Stigma Among Mothers of Adolescents in the Pre- and Current COVID-19 Period: An Observational Study Using Population-Based Cohort Data
Authors: Nakanishi Miharu , Yamasaki Syudo , Ando Shuntaro , Endo Kaori , Richards Marcus , Hiraiwa-Hasegawa Mariko , Kasai Kiyoto , Nishida Atsushi
Published: May 2022

Background: Middle-aged adults may be the ideal target group for dementia-related stigma reduction interventions to encourage the utilization of services among those who may become family caregivers. Neighborhood social cohesion may diminish dementia-related stigma, particularly in terms of perceived public attitudes. The COVID-19 pandemic can further negatively impact perceived public stigma. Objective: To investigate the association between neighborhood social cohesion and dementia-related stigma during the pre- and current COVID-19 period. Methods: We employed a cross-sectional design using data from a large population-based cohort, the Tokyo Teen Cohort, in Japan. Overall, 2,469 mothers of 16-year-old adolescents self-completed a questionnaire comprising nine dementia-related stigma questions evaluating perceived public and personal attitudes. Neighborhood social cohesion was assessed using a five-item instrument. The participants were divided into two groups according to the time of assessment: prior to the pandemic’s onset (February 2019–March 2020) and during the pandemic (April 2020–July 2021). A multiple regression analysis of stigma was performed using neighborhood social cohesion as an independent variable, and caring experience, age, educational level, and working status as covariates. Results: Personal and perceived public stigma were significantly lower in participants who perceived greater neighborhood social cohesion. However, level of personal and perceived public stigma did not differ between pre- and during the pandemic period. Conclusion: Neighborhood social cohesion may be a modifiable factor for dementia-related stigma. A localized intervention to enhance social cohesion in the neighborhood community would promote the utilization of services among those who may become family caregivers.

Authors: Nikolaev Vitaly A. , Nikolaev Alexander A.
Published: May 2022

BACKGROUND: Stroke is the main reason for disabilities worldwide leading to motor dysfunction, spatial neglect and cognitive problems, aphasia, and other speech-language pathologies, reducing the life quality. To overcome disabilities, telerehabilitation (TR) has been recently introduced. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this review was to analyze current TR approaches for stroke patients’ recovery. METHODS: We searched 6 online databases from January 2018 to October 2021, and included 70 research and review papers in the review. We analyzed TR of 995 individuals, which was delivered synchronously and asynchronously. RESULTS: Findings show TR is feasible improving motor function, cognition, speech, and language communication among stroke patients. However, the dose of TR sessions varied significantly. We identified the following limitations: lack of equipment, software, and space for home-based exercises, insufficient internet capacity and speed, unavailability to provide hands on guidance, low digital proficiency and education, high cognitive demand, small samples, data heterogeneity, and no economic evaluation. CONCLUSIONS: The review shows TR is superior or similar to conventional rehabilitation in clinical outcomes and is used as complementary therapy or as alternative treatments. More importantly, TR provides access to rehabilitation services of a large number of patients with immobility, living in remote areas, and during COVID-19 pandemic or similar events.

Authors: Tonti A. , Delle Site C. , Campanile L.
Published: May 2022

For the evaluation of the fraction of life consumed due to creep damage in martensitic materials, unlike what happens for ferritic materials for which there is a consolidated method, there are currently several usable methods. Therefore, laboratory tests and in-depth microstructural analyses were carried out on Grade 91 and 92 steels for the realization of a reference atlas on microstructural modification and precipitates state evolution during isothermal ageing and thermal creep.
A perspective on the Wilshire creep equations
Authors: Brear John M.
Published: May 2022

The Wilshire creep equations were introduced around fifteen years ago. Their aim was to address the non-physical extrapolation of power-law models, especially to high stresses, and the unrealistic values for activation energy and stress exponent that often arise from simple fits to data. In application they have met with some success, also with some difficulties which have largely been addressed empirically. No detailed mathematical analysis of the model seems to have been performed. This paper considers the fundamental characteristics of the Wilshire equations, as originally given, commencing with their internal consistency. It is found that the strain-time equation is incompatible with those for minimum creep-rate and rupture life. A consistent rate equation is derived, enabling the model to address the creep process rather than merely its results. Predictions made using the original and developed models are compared with actual materials behaviour; this reveals aspects of the approach which require reconsideration. The upper limit imposed by the ultimate tensile strength, and departures from a simple power law emerge as the key characteristics to be preserved and considered further.
Conditional operation of boiler components working under creep conditions until replacement
Authors: Trzeszczyński Jerzy , Trzeszczyńska Ewa
Published: May 2022

One of the more serious operational problems is thermo-fatigue damage detected on internal surfaces of pressure elements (chambers of steam coolers and superheaters), especially those working under creep conditions. Such damages are practically irreparable, especially during a previously planned overhaul. They require prefabrication of new elements. Using the technology of digital twins, fracture mechanics and remote diagnostics Pro Novum has developed and implemented the methodology of conditional operation (until the element is replaced or the boiler is shut down), which allows supervision of the damage under the control of an appropriate system (software). The system can simultaneously control the possible development of a dozen or so damages and assess the condition of the element in an on-line mode. The elements working the longest in the conditions as above have worked for 2 years now. Control NDT (UT) during operation and destructive tests after the disassembly of the elements confirmed possibility of computational monitoring of crack propagation with the accuracy sufficient for practical purposes.

Published: May 2022

BACKGROUND: Manual operations of the hydraulic jack device can become ergonomic stressors for the musculoskeletal system because of the required operational forces, muscle activities, or working postures. However, the usability of the hydraulic jack has not been fully explored for non-professional personnel. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the musculoskeletal loads during manual operations of a hydraulic jack based on the ergonomic postural analysis and electromyography METHODS: Nine men operated the lever of a hydraulic jack with three positions: parallel to and near (P-N), parallel to and far from (P-F), and orthogonal to the jack lever (O). Postural loads were evaluated by Loading on the Upper Body Assessment (LUBA), an ergonomic observational method, and were classified into action categories. The surface electromyogram of eight muscles and the subjective sense of burden were also measured. RESULTS: The initial force for lever pushing reached 40–80 N and exceeded the recommended forces for the unusual postures. The overall assessment of LUBA showed that 31% of working postures observed in O position require immediate consideration and corrective action and the maximum holding time estimated was < 1 minute. The postural load increased due to the shoulder joint abduction in the P-F and O positions and due to the trunk rotation in O position. CONCLUSIONS: The results suggest that operating the hydraulic jack cause considerable postural loads and manual forces insufficient for several minutes of manual task. Therefore, improving working methods and tool designs are needed to improve usability and decrease the risk of musculoskeletal disorders during jack operations.

BACKGROUND: Individuals might suffer emotional, psychological, and even bodily challenges as a result of any pandemic. The impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on Saudi Arabian University students and faculty members has received little attention. OBJECTIVE: To assess stress during the COVID-19 pandemic among university college students and faculty members of Jouf University, KSA and evaluate the impact of socio- demographic factors on anxiety and depression levels. METHODS: Two hundred and seventeen participants from Jouf University completed an anonymous web-based survey that includes questionnaires about anxiety and depression symptoms. Beck’s anxiety inventory (BAI) was used to assess the anxiety levels, and Beck’s depression inventory (BDI) was used to determine the depression levels due to COVID 19 pandemic. The research was carried out between April 1, 2020, and June 30, 2020. An ordinal logistic regression analysis was performed to explain the odds of observing anxiety and depression. RESULTS: For “moderate anxiety” (22–35), the most frequently observed category of age, nationality, gender, duration spent in lockdown and profession was 20–30 years (n = 15, 65%), Saudis (n = 14, 61%), female (n = 15, 65%),>3 months (n = 17, 74%), and students (n = 15, 65%) respectively. For “moderate depression” (21–30), the most frequently observed category of age, nationality, gender, duration spent in lockdown and profession was 20–30 years (n = 10, 50%), Saudi (n = 15, 65%), female (n = 26, 65%).>3 months (n = 13, 65%), and both students and faculty members, each with an observed frequency of 10 (50%) respectively. Ordinal logistic regression analysis suggested that the observed effects of nationality, gender, and duration spent in lockdown period influenced the anxiety levels among participants. CONCLUSIONS: The impact of the lockdown duration was more significant in students than in faculty members and females than in males. Authors recommend the critical need for intervention and prevention strategies to address college students’ mental health.

Authors: Kumar Banga Harish , Kumar Raj , Kalra Parveen
Published: May 2022

BACKGROUND: Nowadays, real-time motion tracking devices are widely used for ergonomic assessment of several manual quotidian activities. The real-time tracking of human activities makes it easier to observe the exposure of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) in the human body. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to determine the suitability of a real-time motion tracking device (Kinect v1 interfaced with a commercial ergonomic assessment software, JACK) for real-time ergonomic evaluation of the strenuous operation of the manual lawn mower. METHOD: The lawn mower operators perform various strenuous activities while operating the manual lawn mower for long intervals of time, which causes WMSDs in the entire body of the operators. These working operators’ activities have been captured using Kinect v1 interfaced with JACK, to address the ergonomic issues responsible for the whole-body WMSDs. The forces acting on the lower back, Rapid Upper Limb Assessment score and static strength have been predicted using JACK. RESULTS: This study proves the exposure of the operators towards the whole-body WMSDs while operating the manual lawn mower. CONCLUSION: The findings provide a quick and straightforward approach for performing the real-time ergonomic evaluation of any operation, which can help the industrial staff estimate the risk of level WMSDs.
Why do we encounter studies with older versions of the Oswestry Disability Index? Awareness of researchers about the version updates and the lifespan of older versions
Authors: Irmak Rafet
Published: May 2022

BACKGROUND: The Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) is a common outcome-measure used for assessment of spinal disorders with three officially updated versions. However, there are recently published articles that still use ODI-1.0. This suggests the existence of a block on information flow between developers and end-users. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the articles with missing citation to the latest ODI version, to calculate the life span of previous ODI version and to investigate the existence of a block on information flow. METHODS: PMC-PubMed citation dataset is analyzed by CNA and text processing methods. RESULTS: The most important finding of this study is that there is no block on information flow between developers and users in terms of visibility in citations and full text access restrictions. Three different sub-networks are identified between ODI-1.0 and ODI-2.0 articles. 14% (165) of articles have citation to ODI-1.0 and ODI-2.0 version-articles. The time limit that is required for the new ODI version to become dominant in the literature is between 4 and 9 years. CONCLUSION: There is a missing citation problem in the ODI literature which is not a result of a block on information flow between developers and end-users.
Historische Synthese des koreanischen Hapkido und seiner Beiträge
Authors: Gama Uberto Afonso Albuquerque von
Published: May 2022

Die theoretischen Stützannahmen des Hapkido sind eng verknüpft mit den Einflüssen benachbarter östlicher Völker, insbesondere Indiens und Chinas. Das allgemeine Ziel dieses Artikels ist es, eine kurze Geschichte dieser koreanischen Kampfkunst und ihrer Begründer darzustellen. Die spezifischen Ziele bestehen darin, die Bedeutung der Kampftechniken in der heutigen Zeit und ihren Beitrag zur Entwicklung des menschlichen Potenzials hervorzuheben. Die angewandte Methodik beruhte auf einer systematischen Überprüfung von Autoren zu diesem Thema in Brasilien, Korea und den Vereinigten Staaten. Die Ergebnisse zeigten, dass die Unterdrückungen, unter denen das koreanische Volk im Laufe seiner Geschichte litt, die Hauptgründe dafür waren, dass diese Kampfkunst auf eine gut organisierte und vollständige Weise strukturiert war. Hapkido hat seine Relevanz beim Wachstum großer Nationen, bei der Ausbildung von Trainern und bei der Vorbereitung von Kämpfern und Kombattanten in den Streitkräften bewiesen, indem es Disziplin, Ordnung und soziale Interaktion fördert und entwickelt. Es wird daher der Schluss gezogen, dass eine technisch-wissenschaftliche Bewertung notwendig ist, die diese Kampfkunst direkt mit Philosophie, Psychologie, Sportunterricht und Sportmedizin verbindet, mit praktischen Anwendungen für die Gesellschaft und für spezialisierte Gemeinschaften auf allen Kontinenten, insbesondere für Profis Bildung, die in der Lage sein wird, diese Reihe von Techniken als Trainingsmodell für ihre Schüler zu verwenden.
