NNIS risk score or COLA score: which predicts better the risk of surgical site infection among patients undergoing colorectal resection in a tertiary care hospital setting?
Authors: Robinson Esther , S. Rajkumar K.
Published: November 2022

Background: By using predictive scores to identify and quantify risk of Surgical site infections (SSI), preventive measures can be directed effectively to improve patient outcome post operatively. This study was undertaken to compare the National Nosocomial Infections Surveillance (NNIS) risk index and COLA (contamination, obesity, laparotomy and ASA grade) scores to predict risk of SSI among patients undergoing colorectal resection.Methods: A total of 77 patients who underwent colorectal resection at a tertiary care hospital were enrolled in this study. Wound surveillance was performed in all patients during the hospital stay and follow-up information for 30 days postoperatively was collected. Data analysis was done in SPSS version 20.0 for windows. Descriptive analysis was used to exhibit the clinical parameters. Differences between groups were tested by Pearson chi-square and fisher’s exact test. ROC curves were utilized. All the statistical tests were examined with 5% (p≤0.05) level of significance.Results: Incidence of overall SSI was 28.6%. Superficial SSI was more common (14.3%). Serious organ/deep space infection occurred only in 9.1%. Area under the curve (AUC) for NNIS score was 0.645 (95% CI: 0.510-0.781, p<0.05) and 0.611 for the COLA score. (95% CI: 0.472-0.750, p>0.05). Therefore, both these scores have less than acceptable accuracy in this data set to predict SSI.Conclusions: The risk prediction models (NNIS, COLA) although simple, did not accurately predict the risk of SSI in the given study population.

Authors: Gandhi Hemangi , Joshi Abhijit
Published: November 2022

Gall stone ileus is an uncommon however important complication of cholelithiasis. This condition is seen commonly in elderly females with comorbidities. It results from the passage of stone into the small bowel from the gall bladder through a cholecysto-duodenal fistula. Presenting symptoms include typical features of small bowel obstruction. Diagnosis can be made radiologically. Surgical management is the mainstay of treatment. The procedure can be done either in a single stage, where the stone retrieval is done through enterotomy followed by cholecystectomy and fistula repair; or in two stages, which comprise of enterolithotomy alone in stage 1 followed by interval cholecystectomy and fistula repair in stage 2. Laparoscopic single stage management enables definitive surgical therapy of the condition during a single hospital stay and under a single session of anaesthesia.

Different bleaching treatments may be used to try to remove intrinsic stains and more tenacious extrinsic discoloration. Intracoronal tooth whitening, sometimes known as non-vital tooth whitening can be used to whiten teeth. By oxidizing the organic discoloration in the tooth, the bleaching treatment lightens the color of the teeth. The underlying etiology of the discoloration affects the effectiveness and efficacy of tooth bleaching. Internal bleaching is a minimally invasive and cost-effective dental technique that doesn't alter the tooth's size or position on the dental arch. Trauma can cause a tooth to become nonvital and lose its natural color without ever requiring endodontic treatment. In these situations, the first course of treatment should be a root canal. We can move forward with the internal bleaching technique if the tooth has had endodontic treatment. Before placing all ceramic restorations, an interior bleaching may occasionally be required too. Pulp chamber origin discoloration is an indication for internal bleaching. Inflammation-mediated external root resorption known as cervical root resorption can occur after trauma and after intracoronal bleaching. Another internal bleaching issue was the coronal fracture, which is thought to have been brought on by desiccation or changes to the physicochemical properties of the dentin and enamel. The absence or minimal color difference between the treated and untreated teeth has traditionally been considered a sign of immediate treatment efficacy.

Published: November 2022

The trans-fats are a form of unsaturated fatty acids which contain one or more unconjugated double bonds in the trans-configuration. Trans-fat is found in natural sources such as dairy products and meat but the quantity of trans-fatty acid in natural sources is meagre. Most commonly they are found in industrial food products like bakery products, cookies and snacks. Several studies have identified increased industrial trans-fat consumption as harmful to human health. The major effects are on the cardiovascular system and central nervous system. To reduce the trans-fatty acid consumption, the global and national organizations have proposed various approach and strategies like WHO ‘Replace’ action plan strategy, implementation of trade policies and guidelines, work-site intervention strategies, improvements in hydrogenation technology, labeling of food products, behavioural change communication for population. Trans-fatty acid consumption is a modifiable risk factor. Planning and implementation of government policies and guidelines for reduction of trans-fatty acid levels in food product can have a significant impact. But behavioural change among general population is the key to reduce trans-fatty acid consumption.

Published: November 2022

Drivers and motorists get annoyed when it takes a long time to find a vacant space in a parking lot. Looking for parking has become a headache as the number of vehicles in urban cities and the cost of land concurrently increase. There is an urgent need for innovation in smart parking systems. Currently, investors and contractors pay laborers to operate and maintain smart parking systems. Staff duties may include opening and closing gates, giving directions to drivers and motorists, and managing payments associated with the lot. This article proposes a feasible, dependable, and smart algorithm for managing a parking system. This algorithm utilizes image processing techniques to provide real-time data. No labor is required to operate and handle the system. The system itself automatically handles all operations except maintenance. Furthermore, this algorithm is more cost-effective than other similar systems and equally effective. Numerous simulation scenarios were carried out on MATLAB to verify its developed approach. A comparison evaluation juxtaposes the proposed approach with other solutions in the literature. This evaluation clearly indicates that the presented method outperforms other solutions in terms of technologies being used, devices being utilized, and cost.

Published: November 2022

A foreign language is a subject that involves the creation of an artificial language environment for students, which predetermines the variable inclusion of various digital learning tools in new perspectives for teaching a foreign language. The main purpose of the study is to determine the features of the influence of digital technologies on the system of learning a foreign language. To achieve our goals, we have applied the methodology of functional modelling, which allows us to graphically depict how the process of learning a foreign language can be improved through the use of digital technologies. The world community is gradually but surely moving towards Industry 4.0, which brings new opportunities for various everyday processes. Globalization is massively trying to introduce English into all types of people's activities, but the study of other languages does not stand still and more and more people are striving to learn new types of foreign languages, which is why the chosen research topic is extremely relevant today. Based on the results of the study, a functional model was formed that demonstrates the process of learning foreign languages through the use of modern digital technologies. The study has limitations and is associated with the impossibility of applying the proposed model outside of one country and all languages. Further research needs to expand the capabilities of the functional model and form elements of flexibility in it for use in the study of foreign languages that are very complex in their structure.

Published: November 2022

Extreme learning machine (ELM) is a rapid classifier, evolved for batch learning mode which is not suitable for sequential input. As retrieving of data from new inventory which is leads to time extended process. Therefore, online sequential ELM (OSELM) algorithm is progressed to handle the sequential input in which data is read 1 by 1 or chunk by chunk mode. The overall system generalization performance may devalue because of the amalgamation of random initialization of OS-ELM and the presence of redundant and irrelevant features. To resolve the said problem, this paper proposes a correspondence improved genetic optimized feature selection paradigm for sequential input (IG-OSELM) for radial basis or function by using clinical datasets. For performance comparison, the proposed paradigm experimented and evaluated for ELM, improved genetic optimized for ELM classifier (IG-ELM), OS-ELM, IG-OSELM. Experimental results are calculated and analyzed accordingly. The comparative results analysis illustrates that IG-ELM provides 10.94% improved accuracy with 43.25% features as compared to ELM.

Published: November 2022

Feelings and emotions play a prominent role in the motivation and academic performance of students. Considering this importance, this study aimed to compare the achievement emotions of students in two educational environments, traditional face-to-face classes and online classes, grown after the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. To achieve this goal, 92 university students who had the experience of the two modes of education evaluated their emotions in these contexts. The findings indicated that university students had better class-related and learning-related feelings (enjoyment, hope, and pride) in traditional face-to-face education. These students also reported feeling angrier in online classes. Differences in other emotions, such as anxiety, hopelessness, boredom, and shame, were not significant. Test-related emotions of students were rather similar in these two educational contexts. Although traditional face-to-face education produced more positive emotions in students, 29.7% of the students preferred to continue their studies in online mode. Blended education can help students make optimum use of available resources. The findings can be of use to educational policymakers, curriculum planners, teachers, and students.

ICT and 360º evaluation: Improving professional skills in higher education in Spain
Authors: Martínez-Romera Daniel David , Cortés-Dumont Sara
Published: November 2022

The current dynamics of knowledge and innovation generation are faced with, sometimes, incompatible social and cultural trends. Something to which the University is not oblivious. Based on contemporary studies and our own experience, one of the clearest tensions has to do with the ability to judging based on reasons and not emotions. To help with this, in the educational context, the 360-degree evaluation can be a useful instrument in terms of the strengthening of their objective judgment. It is a technique that was conceived to exercise objective evaluation, in several and concurrent ways, which also allows to know their degree of objectivity. To demonstrate its potential, a sample of 56 students was used, taking the teacher’s grading as a reference. The task involved self, peer and inter-group assessment. The methodology was mixed, with support in descriptive statistics for quantitative grades and natural language processing for comments and clarifications. It was possible to detect differences in behavior depending on the type of analysis (self-assessment, peers, and groups), as well as determining which students were most qualified to assess objectively. Another issue was the general reluctance to explain numerical grades through notes. Here we consider several factors to explore, among which we highlight: the digital tool used and the time available; the phase of the academic course and the characteristics of the task; and subjective bias, especially in cases of low score. About the experience, it has also been possible to detect some difficulties derived from the application of a methodology, as complex and demanding as the one used, which generated more than 3000 evaluations. In any case, and in view of the data obtained, we consider that the results corroborate the practical utility of this approach and invite to explore additional aspects within this area.

El suelo rural bajo asedio: análisis en clave de postpandemia y de la legalidad urbanística
Authors: Santaella Quintero Héctor
Published: November 2022

Las nuevas tendencias del mercado inmobiliario después del covid-19 reflejan una mayor demanda de estos suelos, movida por el interés de ciertos sectores de la sociedad en aumentar el espacio de sus viviendas, habitar más cerca de la naturaleza y sacar provecho de las oportunidades que ofrece el teletrabajo. Pese a que el suelo rural no recibió en la ley un tratamiento acorde a su importancia y complejidad, se procuraron llenar por vía reglamentaria sus vacíos y fijar las bases para los desarrollos urbanos que han tenido lugar en las zonas rurales de varias ciudades colombianas. Sin embargo, de manera reciente, el Consejo de Estado decidió inaplicar las reglas fijadas por los decretos reglamentarios en materia de cargas urbanísticas, por considerar que ellas desbordan ampliamente lo previsto al respecto por la Ley 388 de 1997. El resultado es una incertidumbre notable en cuanto a las reglas y condiciones que rigen el desarrollo de actividades urbanísticas en el suelo rural. Ello, en un momento en que el interés del sector inmobiliario por estas zonas escala a unos niveles inusitados.

Published: November 2022

The article is devoted to the experience of postmodern representation of the metaphysics of corporeality. The meaning of A. Artaud’s “Theatre of Cruelty” is shown as a living act of ontologization of the body through the pain phenomenon. The game of mercantile and thinking participant in the action is distinguished. The purpose of scientific research: to distinguish between psychological and metaphysical experiences as those that determine the bodily and carnal goals of the participants; accordingly, to show the actions of selfish and selfless roles with their ability to pass or block pain. Objectives of the research: to investigate the mechanisms of postmodern understanding of the metaphysics of the body through A. Artaud’s experience; to present the sphere of the Theater of Cruelty as the destiny of mankind to be a participant in the horrible and to be able to sympathize with it; to highlight the game of mercantile and selfless participant in ambiguous actions; to emphasize pain as a criterion of ontologizing the body; to show the places of the Theater of Cruelty in action on living examples. The scientific novelty lies in the view of the metaphysics of corporeality through the Theater of Cruelty and existential pain. Being a man of postmodern thinking, A. Artaud considers metaphysics in action and shows corporeality by a joint action, which is an event.

The article considers the scientific category of “educational neuroscience” as a promising interdisciplinary field of research that studies relationship between education and the sciences of higher nervous activity. The role of theoretical research in the field of neuroscience for creation of modern distance educational technologies is determined. It is established that use of neuroscience in learning process expands and enhances competency characteristics of higher education students in research, diagnostic and professional activities. The problem of obtaining neuroscientific knowledge by higher education students, which will help provide future specialists with a sufficient communicative level of skills in everyday life and work environment, has been brought up to date. Evaluation of large-scale application of the distance learning system in the process of formation of communicative competencies of higher education students is carried out. The main problems that arise in higher education students and teaching staff when working in the distance learning system are analyzed. Possibilities of application of mobile devices and applications in educational process at a distance form of training are considered. The effectiveness of application of information and communication technologies in the process of formation of communicative competencies in higher education students is clarified. The positive and negative impact, advantages and disadvantages of distance learning for both higher education students and the academic teaching staff of higher education establishments, including in the context of neuroscience, have been identified and generalized.

The article describes theoretical views on the development of ethical consciousness in Ukrainian university students in the context of postmodernism, using the data from quasi-experimental psycho-pedagogical measurements. The article aims to specify the process of developing structural components of ethical consciousness in Ukrainian university students, who de facto (culturally and socially) are still gaining the experience of late postmodernity. The following methods were used at the propaedeutic, quasi-experimental and resumptive levels: theoretical-methodological analysis of relevant scientific-methodical sources; selection of relevant diagnostic methods; modelling of educational conditions; psychodiagnostic methods; methods of mathematical statistics; summarization. The necessary data were collected, with the observance of all ethical norms, at the premises of Ukrainian higher education institutions, with the participation of 280 students-respondents (Years 1-5) who major in the humanities and technology. The obtained results indicate a rather uneven personal development of students under all structural components of ethical consciousness. The main part of the article, as well as conclusions, clarifies the components of ethical consciousness, their dynamics and dependence on one’s worldview and experience. The international relevance of the article lies in objectifying ethical consciousness of young people in the post-totalitarian environment. It will allow one to evaluate the interaction between traditional and postmodern systems, justify the prospects of such categories as “meanings” and “values” in the belated postmodern society. The results of the article may influence the modelling of the character-building component in new education systems in the post-cultural society.

A Universidade da Integração Internacional da Lusofonia Afro-Brasileira (UNILAB) tem como objetivo formar pessoas para contribuir com os países membros da Comunidade dos Países de Língua Portuguesa (CPLP), especialmente as nações africanas. Os cursos são ministrados conforme as áreas de interesse mútuo do Brasil e dos demais países da CPLP. Esta possibilidade de mobilidade estudantil tem atraído estudantes de diferentes países da África, entre eles, os moçambicanos. O objetivo do artigo é investigar interferências identitárias e processos de sua (re)construção a partir da experiência de mobilidade vivida por estudantes moçambicanos da UNILAB. A pesquisa é descritiva, focada na pesquisa bibliográfica e de campo baseada em entrevistas em profundidade. Evidenciou-se que os elementos mais dinamizados no processo de mobilidade estudantil referem-se a aspectos da identidade africana e nacional, sexual e de gênero, além da social.

The Industrial Revolution 4.0 is synonymous by the Internet development; its presence is so fast. Many things that were not thought of before suddenly appear and become innovations, including in education. This study uses the online learning environment Edmodo to analyse student CTA in terms of gender and learning style. Descriptive quantitative research is the term for this kind of study. This study has a group post-test only design and is a quasi-experimental investigation. 75 kids from Mataram's junior high schools participated in this study. Data were collected on student’s CTA using a description of five numbers. Identification was made by giving the sampled students a questionnaire to find their learning styles. Data analysis used descriptive statistics assisted by the Rash model. The findings indicated that there were few variations between male and female students' CTA. Furthermore, kinesthetic learners were better at CTA than auditory and visual learners.
