Virilization of a 46,XX Fetus Following Aromatase Inhibitor Treatment of Breast Cancer
Authors: Moran George W. , Steinman Jonathan B. , Tillotson Cara V. , Carpenter Christina P. , Hays Thomas , Ham J. Nina , Li Belinda
Published: May 2023

Virilization of the 46,XX infant may be attributed to maternal or fetoplacental origin. Maternal sources may be endogenous, as with an androgen-producing tumor, or drug-related. Iatrogenic virilization by maternal drug exposure is rarely reported, with individual case reports and case series demonstrating the effects of progesterone and other medications affecting the pituitary-ovarian axis.1–3 The class of medications known as aromatase inhibitors are recognized as effective in treating hormone receptor-positive breast cancer by preventing the conversion of androgens into estrogens by aromatase. In fetal development, placental aromatase plays a critical role in preventing virilization of the XX fetus by maternal and fetal androgens during development. In the setting of placental aromatase deficiency, the XX fetus may be virilized. It is conceivable, therefore, that maternal exposure to aromatase inhibitors early in gestation may lead to in utero virilization, though there have been no known reports of this phenomenon to date. We present a case of virilization of a 46,XX infant attributed to pharmacologic aromatase inhibition. The infant’s parents provided informed consent for the reporting of this case.

Published: May 2023

Two new species of Bulbophyllum, namely, B. gurungianum (sect. Biseta) and B. punakhaense (sect. Brachyrantha) are described and illustrated. Bulbophyllum gurungianum is similar to B. brevispicatum and B. sonii but differs strikingly by having pseudobulbs placed distantly on the rhizome, a shorter peduncle, and oblong petals with a ciliated margin. Bulbophyllum punakhaense is morphologically similar to B. farreri, B. thaiorum, and B. mamillatum, but can be easily distinguished by its larger leaves, pseudobulbs distantly placed on the rhizome, longer peduncle, and oblong-lanceolate petals with shortly papillate margin towards the apex. We provide a detailed description of each species, and information on their distribution, ecology, and conservation status.

A pneumothoraxról: Szövetségesből ellenség •
Authors: Molnár F. Tamás
Published: May 2023

Bevezetés

Magyarországon évente 2000 fölötti számban kezelünk betegeket légmellel (pneumothorax: PTX). Az utolsó hazai irányelv 2008-ban járt le, ideje az újragondolásnak.

Módszer

A Brit Mellkasi Társaság és az Európai Légzési Társaság releváns útmutatásaira alapozva a legújabb nemzetközi és hazai szakirodalmi közlemények és a klinikai tapasztalat alapján tekintjük át a diagnosztika, a therapia kérdéseit, a kilátásokat.

Eredmények

Alapvető különbség van a primaer és a secundaer spontán PTX esetén javallt döntésekben. Az előbbiben a műtét (VATS) preferálandó, amennyiben a drainage kezelés sikertelen, illetve recidivában, az utóbbiban jóval tartózkodóbbak lehetünk. A feszülő légmell az egyedüli valós életveszélyes állapot, mely haladéktalan detenzionálást követel. Egyébként a kezelési modalitások közüli választást a mechanizmus, a légzési tartalékok, a tüdő állapota, a beteg preferenciája és egyéb kockázati elemek határozzák meg. Az áthatoló traumás légmell és a punctiós iatrogen kezelési stratégiája a primaer légmellét követi, míg a fedett (zúzott, robbantott) eredetű a secundaer PTX-ét, mivel az expansiós hajlamot a tüdősérülés (contusio, consolidatio) mértéke szabja meg, hasonlóan a vírus okozta ARDS miatti lélegeztetés barotraumájához kapcsolódó PTX esetén. A katameniális légmell rendszerbetegség, a localis ellátást (sziget excisio, rekeszi felszín fedése) a hormonalis és a hasi/kismedencei status rendezése kíséri. Konklúzió: A tünetes, súlyos légzési zavart okozó légmell kezelési stratégiája nem változott, a többi formában óvatosabb, visszafogottabb a taktika. A nem intubalt mellkassebészet és a Covid–19-hez kapcsolódó ARDS-t kísérő légmell tapasztalatai finomították a legújabb felfogást.

Összefoglalás

A melanoma sebészete az elmúlt években jelentősen átalakult. A nagy radikalitású, sok szövődménnyel járó műtéteket, melyek mellett a teljes és betegségmentes túlélés is alacsony maradt, fokozatosan felváltották a kisebb radikalitású műtétek. Az új szisztémás kezelések (célzott és immuno-onkológiai) adjuváns indikációban történő bevezetésével bizonyos műtétek, mint az elektív blokkdisszekciók, ma már kiszorultak a sebészi kezelésekből és a sebészet szerepe is átértékelődött. Változott a primér tumor eltávolítás sebészete, a reexcízió kivitelezése, őrszemnyirokcsomó biopszia és nyirokrégiók sebészete, a bőr és távoli áttétek sebészeti ellátása. Jelen összefoglaló közleményben a szerzők a nemzetközi irodalom és saját gyakorlatuk alapján nyújtanak áttekintést a melanoma malignum jelenleg elfogadott sebészeti terápiájáról.

THE COMPETITIVE APPROACH VS THE HUMANIST-SOCIAL APPROACH IN QUALITY MANAGEMENT OF POSTGRADUATE STUDIES
Authors: Ardisana Eduardo Fidel Héctor , Ramírez Antonio Clarencio Guzmán , Téllez Osvaldo Alberto Fosado
Published: May 2023

Postgraduate quality management can be carried out from two approaches: the first, (competitive) is based on compliance with academic, scientific and administrative standards, and the positioning of universities in world lists of best institutions; the second (humanist-social) in the commitment of the universities with the solution of the problems of sustainable development. The objective of this article is to review the recent information backing the competitive and social-humanist approaches to quality in postgraduate studies, and on this basis support what should be the meeting point between both approaches in Latin American universities. For this purpose, articles published predominantly in Latin America, and also from Asia and Africa, were analyzed. From the points of view expressed in the reviewed documents, reflections on quality management in postgraduate studies were formulated from the Latin American perspective. It was found that the competitive approach predominates in postgraduate quality management worldwide, and that the social responsibility of universities, and of postgraduate studies in particular, implies a commitment to solving local, regional and national problems, only achievable with a solid social-humanist approach. Latin American universities must combine compliance with competitive standards with postgraduate social responsibility objectives, and assign greater weight to the latter in accreditation systems.
DESIGN OF MINIATURE CIRCULAR MICROSTRIP PATCH ANTENNA BASED ON METAMATERIAL FOR Wi-Fi 5 AND Wi-Fi 6 APPLICATIONS
Authors: Moussa Fatima Zahra , Belhadef Y. , Ferouani Souheyla
Published: May 2023

The objective of this work is to design a miniature circular shape patch antenna simulated by the CST microwave studio (CST MWS) software. This antenna based on metamaterials is to be used for wireless communication applications in Wi-Fi in the [5.15-5.875] GHz and [5.925-7.125] GHz frequency
bands for Wi-Fi-5 and Wi-Fi-6 resonant frequencies, respectively. The miniaturization was achieved through periodic arrays of square-shaped complementary split ring resonators inserted at the ground plane of the structure. A miniaturization of the active zone of the radiating element was achieved up to 43.88%. For the purpose of increasing the bandwidth and gain of the miniature antenna, we subsequently
applied the technique of modifying the ground plane geometry to have frequency bands around 450 MHz and 760 MHz with gains of the order of 5 dB and 3.34 dB for the two resonant frequencies 5 GHz and 6 GHz, respectively. The simulation results are discussed and commented in terms of return
loss, bandwidth, gain, and radiation patterns.
Establishing competent ground conditions with the DPSH
Authors: MacRobert C J , Stergianos T J
Published: May 2023

Insufficient information is currently available to fully understand the mechanism of rod friction in DPSH (Dynamic Probe Super Heavy) probing. Consequently, a method is proposed to distinguish profiles in which friction results in excessive blow counts based on normalised profiles. While friction-impacted DPSH profiles are difficult to interpret, those unaffected by friction show better equivalence to SPT (Standard Penetration Test) profiles, especially if used to screen for competent (SPT blow counts > 30) ground conditions.
A critical comparison of interpolation techniques for digital terrain modelling in mining
Authors: Razas M.A. , Hassan A. , Khan M.U. , Emad M.Z. , Saki S.A.
Published: May 2023

Digital modelling of a surface is crucial for Earth science and mining applications for many reasons. These days, high-tech digital representations are used to produce a high-fidelity topographic surface in the form of a digital terrain model (DTM). DTMs are created from 2D data-points collected by a variety of techniques such as traditional ground surveying, image processing, LiDAR, radar, and global positioning systems. At the points for which data is not available, the heights need to be interpolated or extrapolated from the points with measured elevations. There are several interpolation/extrapolation techniques available, which may be categorized based on criteria such as area size, accuracy or exactness of the surface, smoothness, continuity, and preciseness. In this paper we examine these DTM production methods and highlight their distinctive characteristics. Real data from a mine site is used, as a case study, to create DTMs using various interpolation techniques in Surfer® software. The significant variation in the resulting DTMs demonstrates that developing a DTM is not straightforward and it is important to choose the method carefully because the outcomes depend on the interpolation techniques used. In mining instances, where volume estimations are based on the produced DTM, this can have a significant impact. For our data-set, the natural neighbour interpolation method made the best predictions (R2 = 0.969, β = 0.98, P < 0.0001).

The coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) pandemic leaded to inevitable expeditious vaccine rollout without sufficient safety profile. Especially, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection has known to induce overreacted immune responses such as releasing of proteinase-3 and myeloperoxidase (MPO) by neutrophil. This overreacted immune response leads to the concern of the development of autoimmune diseases after COVID-19 vaccination. We report the case of de novo MPO-associated systemic vasculitis involving central nervous system following heterogeneous mRNA1273 COVID-19 booster vaccination.
Quale futuro per la cardiologia ambulatoriale in una società che invecchia?
Authors: Ganau Antonello , Bullitta Tonino , Negri Maria , Gazale Giovanni
Published: May 2023

Negli ultimi decenni l’aspettativa di vita si è allungata notevolmente. Allo stesso tempo, i cambiamenti demografici in atto stanno determinando un rapido aumento della popolazione anziana. Pertanto, l’aumento della longevità non si accompagna ad un proporzionale incremento della durata di vita in salute a causa della importante crescita delle malattie età-dipendenti. L’Italia è caratterizzata da una aspettativa di vita tra le più lunghe al mondo, dall’età media più alta in Europa, da una rapida crescita delle malattie croniche e dei relativi costi sanitari. L’invecchiamento della popolazione sta impattando pesantemente sul sistema sanitario, la cui organizzazione territoriale appare inadeguata a gestire la mole crescente di cronicità, come dimostrano le interminabili liste di attesa. La Missione 6 del PNRR prevede importanti investimenti anche nella riorganizzazione della sanità territoriale, con la creazione delle Case e degli Ospedali di Comunità e delle Centrali Operative territoriali e con l’attivazione della telemedicina per favorire la medicina di prossimità. In questa nuova organizzazione, va definito il ruolo della cardiologia territoriale nella gestione delle malattie cardiovascolari – che sono parte preminente della cronicità. Vanno precisati i rapporti con le Case e gli Ospedali della comunità e i loro professionisti, come pure gli strumenti e la formazione per le televisite, il telemonitoraggio e il teleconsulto. Infine, va compreso come portare a livello di popolazione la prevenzione primaria cardiovascolare. Per chiarire tutti questi aspetti è necessaria una tempestiva interlocuzione tra società cardiologiche, Ministero della Salute e Assessorati alla Sanità regionali.

Authors: Fries Jonathan
Published: May 2023

Regression is a widely used statistical method in various research areas, such as educational psychology, and it is common to display regression coefficients in tables. Although tables contain dense information, they can be difficult to read and interpret when they are extensive. To address this issue, we present three innovative visualizations that enable researchers to present a large number of regression models in a single plot. We demonstrate how to transform simulated data and plot the results, which produce visually appealing representations of regression results that are both efficient and intuitive. These visualizations can be applied for screening models in the selection stage or reporting results in research papers. Our method is reproducible using the provided code and can be implemented using free and open-source software routines in R.

Students’ Perceptions of Effective EFL Teachers in a University in Vietnam
Authors: Hung Luu Nguyen Quoc
Published: May 2023

Teachers are a vital element in education development as effective teachers are a central resource for the success of an educational organization. Effective teachers generally help to improve students’ learning behaviors and academic performance, and thus attention needs to be given to examining teacher effectiveness as a key to guaranteed education quality. As students are the first and direct stakeholders, students should have the most influential voice in what is regarded as effective teaching. This descriptive study investigated the characteristics of effective English teachers as perceived by 89 students of English as a foreign language (EFL) at a public university in the South of Vietnam with a self-report questionnaire consisting of four aspects: English proficiency, pedagogical knowledge, organization and communication skills and socio-affective skills. Overall, the students indicated positive perception towards the required characteristics of an effective English teacher. Two additional aspects of characteristics were identified including professionalism and personality traits. The results of this study can help teachers to become aware of important aspects of teaching qualities from students' points of view in order to improve themselves to meet standards for an effective EFL teacher.

Published: May 2023

This study explores two ESL teachers' experiences in accommodating culturally diverse learners in a classroom. A case study is adopted to obtain an in-depth understanding and detailed information about the teachers’ expertise in accommodating students with different cultures, ethnic, and genders in the classroom settings. The data is collected through semi-structured interviews with four English teachers teaching culturally diverse students in standard classroom settings from secondary schools. Descriptive and qualitative content analyses were conducted to analyze the data. The findings revealed that the ESL teachers possessed the adaptation to the circumstances with their expectations in teaching multicultural diversity learners. The participants also showed that ESL teachers faced challenges in teaching English to culturally diverse students in secondary school settings in terms of language barriers, syllabus, and socioeconomic background. The findings from the interview sessions showed the implementation of CRT strategies to facilitate more meaningful participation in the classroom by CRT approach, positive reinforcement, syllabus adjustment, and peer tutoring/group projects.
Developing Multimodal Literacy in the Business English Reading Class: A Case Study of Students’ Presentation PowerPoint Slides
Authors: Qi Wenjin
Published: May 2023

This study aims to investigate the students’ multimodal literacies by analyzing their presentation PPT slides in Business English reading class in two dimensions of discourse genre and multimodality. It discovers certain preferences and patterns in their multimodal semiotic practice as well as some drawbacks in the meaning-making process. Students tend to adopt visualizing genre over other genres to demonstrate factual events in their PPT presentations. They are inclined to use language and image more frequently than other semiotic modes in their PPT meaning making. Besides, their technology and media literacy needs to be strengthened in searching, criticizing, analyzing online information resources. Eventually it provides teachers with pedagogical scaffolds to teach the viewing and representing of multimodal texts effectively.
Online Machine Translation Efficiency in Translating Fixed Expressions Between English and Arabic (Proverbs as a Case-in-Point)
Authors: Jibreel Ibrahim
Published: May 2023

Doubtless, Machine Translation has affected translation as a process and a product. This study tests MT's effectiveness in translating proverbs between English and Arabic. It investigates one important CAT tool device. It aims to attest which MT will be more communicative, semantic or literal giving target equivalent and clarifying the error type the MT would make. To achieve these aims, thirty proverbs, half Arabic and half English, have been randomly selected, taken from The Dictionary of Common English Proverbs Translated and Explained written by Attia (2004) and then translated using five different online MTs: Google, Reverso, Yandex, Systran, and Bing. As Alabbasi (2015) suggested, the researcher adopted Newmark's (1988) Taxonomy of translation methods, selecting three major divisions that include the other types in one way or another viz. Literal, Semantic and Communicative. Analyzing data, Kruskal-Wallis Test and Chi-square were used as well as descriptive statistics. It is found that the most translation method MT produced when faced with a proverb is the literal, semantic and communicative respectively. Bing is the most effective MT providing communicative proverbial equivalents. Bing and Google, in the same rank, provide semantic equivalents. Furthermore, the least effective MT among the five is Yandex. MT errors diverge between missing the implied meaning, weakly structured translations, wrong synonyms and meaning distorting.
Medical (In)Justice of Mexican-American Migrant Workers in Under the Feet of Jesus
Authors: Wang Xuan , Hu Jun
Published: May 2023

Helena Maria Viramontes’s representative fiction, Under the Feet of Jesus, explores the oppression and resistance of Mexican-American migrant workers (Chicanos) by revealing racial and gender problems. This article will first demonstrate the contamination of Mexican-American migrants’ working environment in this novel. Furthermore, drawing on medical ethics and other interdisciplinary studies, it will argue against the medical injustice regarding the mistreatment of Mexican-American migrants’ bodies because of the white class’s supremacy, and will state Chicano workers’ resistances and pursuits in facing unfair medical systems. On top of that, this paper would like to propose that empathy and mutual kindness from community members are the key solutions to show resistance to medical injustice.
Gendered Representations in Language: A Corpus-Based Comparative Study of Adjective-Noun Collocations for Marital Relationships
Authors: Raphael Esaya Britto
Published: May 2023

In language teaching, a study of the corpora gives teachers access to authentic texts and the language of these texts is the language used in real-life communication. Social structures and culture-defined representations of gender influence sexist language or choice of words based on gender bias. Based on the premise that adjectives as ‘describing words’ help define and express human behaviour, attitude and psyche, this research paper tries to explore and compare collocational behaviour of adjectives using four pairs of female and male nouns for marital relationships (bachelor and spinster, bridegroom and bride, husband and wife, and widower and widow) in the British and the Indian contexts. Considering that these four noun pairs sequentially represent the four stages in a marital relationship, this comparative analysis tries to demonstrate with collocational evidence the categorization of social identity and power distribution, the presence of sexism in language usage, and analyzes and interprets the cultural meanings they embody. By examining the gendered adjective-noun collocational frequencies and dispersions in the British National Corpus (BNC) and the Kolhapur Corpus of Indian English (KC), this paper seeks to present certain key perspectives in gender representations in two diverse socio-cultural and historical backgrounds and analyze how gendered language is used by native and non-native speakers.
Illusions and Realities in the Film Green Book From the Perspective of Ideology
Authors: Wang Xiaoxuan
Published: May 2023

Film, from Louis Althusser’s standpoint, serves as one of the powerful ideology state apparatuses in the form of popular culture and mass media, to achieve the effect of interpellating the individuals as subjects, and constructing imaginary identity. This paper, based on specific theories on ideology, especially that of Althusser’s, tends to analyze the ideology issue in the Hollywood film Green Book (2018), including what kind of ideologies the film fabricates, how it fabricates them, and what kind of ideology such fabrication gives away. Through scrupulous exploration, this paper maintains that by narrating the reconciliation story between the American white and black, Green Book actually aims to disseminate to the audience specific ideologies in class, race and the American nation, in order to console the masses and dilute the social conflicts. Yet, besides the ideology desired by the film, there is “an ideology behind ideology” the film betrays.
Challenging Trauma’s Invisibility: Constructing Voice in AlAmmar’s Silence is a Sense
Authors: Bouchebouche Hanane , Abutaleb Hala
Published: May 2023

Traumatic experiences often leave one suppressed and spiritually weak due to marginalization and voicelessness. This article aims to show how the protagonist in Silence is a Sense manipulates the disadvantages following and associated with trauma to create her own voice. Layla AlAmmar employs the theme of trauma to elaborate on refugees’ need to concede their own power of speech, acknowledging their past, present and future existence. Through textual analysis, the researcher examines voicelessness as a political, social and cultural challenge to subjugation. Recording her memories, Rana establishes a resisting voice and becomes known as The Voiceless. Interestingly, readers only know her name at the very end, in an indication that Rana’s story is no different than any other refugee with any other name. Eventually, AlAmmar succeeds in using the motif of muteness in order to expose the disastrous result of the war especially after the Arab Spring.

Calculated estimation of acoustic resonances in the flow part of gas turbines in the outlet diffusers is a current problem. Its solution will improve vibration reliability of essential elements of gas turbine plant (GTP) – the rear bearing housing support and the blade apparatus. At present there are only a limited number of calculated and experimental works devoted to the study of acoustic resonance effect in the output devices of gas turbines. The objective of this paper is to estimate frequencies of acoustic oscillations in the GTP output diffuser. It allows to avoid coincidence of the indicated frequencies with the frequencies of natural oscillations of GTP structural elements. The results of the analysis of frequencies of acoustic oscillations should be confirmed in further experimental studies of the specified output device, i.e., the output diffuser. The method to solve the problem is computational. The results of numerical calculations of acoustic resonances in the GTP outlet diffuser are used for the analysis. The calculations have been performed in the Modal Acoustics ANSYS Workbench program. The model is described and the computational program to calculate the acoustic modes in the output diffuser is specified. The boundary conditions to perform the specified numerical acoustic calculations are proposed. The modes and corresponding frequencies of acoustic oscillations that are possible in the GTP outlet diffuser are considered. Justification of validity of the results of numerical calculations is their partial comparison with analytical solution for the simplest acoustic model, as well as with the preliminary result of the experimental research. The results of the acoustic calculations of the model of the GTP outlet diffuser allow to determine the modes of acoustic oscillations, and to estimate the frequency range of these modes. To substantiate the calculated estimates of frequencies of acoustic pressure pulsations, as well as to clarify the amplitudes of these pulsations, experimental aerodynamic studies of the model of the outlet diffuser with a rotating turbine stage at the inlet are necessary. Refined calculation model of acoustic resonances in the GTP outlet diffuser will contribute to the offset of frequencies of acoustic gas vibrations from the natural frequencies of vibrations of the GTP structural elements, adjacent to the diffuser. The indicated frequency offset will improve the GTP vibration reliability at the design stage.

The purpose of the article is to analyze approaches to the classification of sports tourism and the need to systematize types of sports tourism as a global, geospatial phenomenon. Methods. The research was conducted in stages. At the initial stage, the problem statement was carried out. The next stage concerned the accumulation of scientific information on the problem of methodological approaches to the systematization (classification, typology) of tourism in general and sports tourism in particular at the global level. Further, information was processed using the following methods: analysis, synthesis, correlation, scientific systematization, comparative-geographical, statistical. Then, the systematization of the processed information and scientific substantiation of the research results took place. Results. As a result of the research, it was determined that a type of sports tourism should be considered the selection of tourist and sports events (tourist hikes, competitions) according to idiosyncratic way of movement or other determining conditions of their realization (natural environment), which are carried out in accordance with the approved rules of their conduct. The analysis of the types of sports tourism proved that they are distinguished by two features – the way of traveling and the geographical environment in which these trips are carried into practice. To date, tourist and sports activities are classified from the following types of tourism: hiking, skiing, mountain, water, bicycle, car, motorcycle, speleological, sailing, and also represent their combinations (combined tourism). This does not mean that other, not yet traditional, types of active movement on tourist routes cannot be used. For the specified 10 types of sports tourism, 62 subspecies and 43 subsubspecies are defined. The systematization of the component structure of the sports tourism system in the world proves that this system is one that is actively being formed. It is extremely dynamic and capable of developing the most diverse areas of active recreational and tourist activity. At the same time, a variety of specific sports, recreational and tourist resources are engaged. The scientific newness consists in the systematization of the component structure of the sports tourism system at the global level. Practical significance. Systematization will assist official tourism and sports organizations of the national and world level and scientists to structure information about problems in the development of certain types of tourism. The results of the research will contribute to increasing the efficiency of tourism and sports activities management.

Automated Collection of Data on a Person: Implicit Principles of Legal Regulation
Authors: Solovkin S. V.
Published: May 2023

In the digital transformation context, an objective need has arisen to modernize the current personal data regulation. The legislator’s attempts to develop this regulation do not bring the required results. In this paper, the author makes an attempt to identify and critically analyze the implicit principles of legal regulation of relations in the fi ld of collecting of data on a person. The author establishes the presence of at least three implicit principles that determine the current domestic regulation, namely: (1) “preventive protection of data on a person a priori ensures the protection of the data subjects’ rights”; (2) “the protection of the data subjects’ rights should be carried out mainly through public means”; (3) “the data subjects are reasonable, so that they should bear the burden of determining the future of their personal data.” The identified principles are also critically analyzed by the author. As a result, the inconsistency and inefficiency of them in the modern context are established. The author concludes that it is necessary to conceptually reform the data collection regulation at a fundamental level, which should already be the subject of extensive discussions in the legal community. In addition, the author provides a number of recommendations on potential regulatory reform.
On the Issue of Legal Regulation of I-Voting
Authors: Evsikov K. S.
Published: May 2023

The article discusses the specific features of legislative regulation of i-voting. The study shows that public authorities often seek to restrict citizens’ access to this method of participation in government referring to technical and legal barriers to its use. The foreign experience considered in the article and the experience of remote e-voting in our country allows us to refute the reference to the presence of significant technical barriers to i-voting. Legal barriers, as the results of the study show, can also be overcome by changing the relevant legal norms.

At the same time, it is noted that i-voting is in demand not only in public law, but also in private law. In this regard, the hypothesis of the need to open access to i-voting technology for subjects of private law is substantiated. The implementation of this proposal will help to increase confidence in the information system, increase the competencies of a wide range of people, and as a result, harmonize the digital transformation of the electoral process with the existing legal culture. The studied experience has shown that in the course of digital transformation, i-voting will face many technical and legal problems. At the same time, legal science should form an understanding of these difficulties, as well as proposals for their neutralization and overcoming. This is the only way for the Russian Federation to defeat «digital neo-luddism» in the field of digitalization of public administration in general and in the field of i-voting in particular.
On the Expediency of Improving the System of Legal Regulation of Information Relations in the Field of Librarianship in the Context of Cyber Law

Published: May 2023

An attempt is made to analyze new institutional formations in the system of information law — «Internet law», «cyber law», «digital law». Based on the study of the approaches of various authors, the ratio of these categories is presented. It is proved that digital law is a priority for the legal regulation of fundamentally new public relations emerging over the use of end-to-end digital technologies, while improving the system of legal regulation from the standpoint of cyber law seems more promising as a direction for improving the legal regulation of traditional information institutions that are incapable of rapid digital transformation.

According to the results of the study, the author concludes that one of the traditional information institutions, the improvement of the system of legal regulation of which it is advisable to consider in the context of cyber law, is the institute of legal regulation of information relations in the field of librarianship. It is argued that this approach will make it possible to adapt the legal regulation of library and information activities to the digital environment for the period of introduction of end-to-end digital technologies into library practice, while maintaining a balance of providing library and information services in traditional and electronic forms

Authors: Zhurkov A. A.
Published: May 2023

The article analyzes the potential of using artificial intelligence technologies (hereinafter referred to as AI) for the purpose of reducing or preventing various kinds of risks for domestic business in the face of increasing sanctions pressure from a number of foreign countries, which reached unprecedented proportions after the start of a special military operation in Ukraine. The article discusses aspects related to the use of modern IT solutions by foreign countries for the purposes of monitoring compliance with sanctions legislation in relation to the Russian Federation, as well as ways to inform the domestic business community about the possibility of taking into account restrictive measures taken against it. The approaches to the definition of the concept of digital sovereignty are analyzed and its criteria are formulated. Based on the analysis of regulatory and doctrinal sources, it is shown that AI technologies are inextricably linked with ensuring national digital sovereignty, and the level of legal regulation should meet the demands of the present time.
AS INTERSEÇÕES ENTRE OS CONCEITOS DE MULTILETRAMENTOS E A EDUCOMUNICAÇÃO PERMEADOS PELA LINGUAGEM
Authors: Bertone Yan Tavares
Published: May 2023

The present study has as a theme the intersections between multiliteracies and educommunication, more specifically in their similarities concerning the language. The problem which motivated the research is the fact that, though these concepts come from different areas, i.e., Linguistics, Education and Communication, they present things in common.  This research is justified by the comprehension of the interdisciplinary characteristic from Applied Linguistics, that can involve both concepts in their applicabilities. The general aim of this work is to acknowledge the similarities between multiliteracies and educommunication, as for the specific aim to assess the teacher possibilities concerning both concepts in language teaching classes. The research is based on the comprehension of language from Bakhtin (1997, 2006), Volochínov (2013), Citelli, (2006) regarding the concept of communication ecosystem, Martín-Barbero, (2014) about the school borders and the interactions among the subjects, Soares, (2011) concerning the concept of educommunication, Kalantzis et al., (2016), Lemke, (2010), Street, (2006), Cazden et al. (1996) and Paulino & Cosson, (2009) about the multiliteracies
UNIVERSIDADE E CONTROLE
Authors: Santos Igor Gomes Duarte Gomide dos
Published: May 2023

The present paper intends to investigate if there is, and if it exists, the depth of the relationship between the consolidation of higher education in Brazil and the culture of higher education enforced nowadays. The first graduation course was inaugurated in 1808, with the foundation of the School of Surgery and Anatomy in Salvador and Rio de Janeiro, and until now, even after the proclamation of Brazilian independence, continues aiming to provide manpower skills to fulfill liberal and manpower skills for the state bureaucracy. The pragmatic disdain for areas considered futile or unnecessary in a State that aimed to reach a certain level of production and industrialization was not only present in colonial culture but also in public policies to promote courses and research between fields of study considered essential or non-essential, in the 21st century; as well as the centralization of chair decisions in the hands of the Emperor and the reserving of the rector's free choice by the head of the Executive (federal or state) are tangible remnants of an alienating national project. In order to achieve these objectives, historical studies will be analyzed on the discussions during the implementation of higher education courses in Brazil, as well as the courses authorized to operate and documents of university deliberations from the beginning of the 19th century, as well as the direction of the research funding notices launched, and public policies for access to higher education

Published: May 2023

Bed Occupancy Rate (BOR) Psychiatric Hospital of DR.Radjiman W regency had a low percentage. In April 2022, it was 59,80%, May at 50,55%, and June at 48,84%. It may be due to the governor’s and BPJS regulations, the development of psychiatric in other health services, the limited facilities and infrastructure for non-psychiatric patients, and the lack of information about non-psychiatric services. This study analyzed the low percentage of BOR (Bed Occupancy Rate). The sample was four respondents: the head of the inpatient, the head of the outpatient, the head of the emergency room, and the public relation. The main priority is to solve this research problem using the 5 WHYs and find an alternative solution by discussion method with all respondents. The result showed the main factor causing the low percentage of BOR in RSJRW was the lack of facilities and infrastructure. It was suggested that RSJRW should be aware of cleaning up and provide fewer facilities and infrastructure.

Authors: Туровський О.Л. , Блаженний Н.В.
Published: May 2023

Одним з факторів зовнішнього середовища, що може значно вплинути на ефективність застосування атмосферних оптичних ліній зв’язку (АОЛЗ) може бути радіоактивне випромінювання, сформоване різними джерелами та явищами.
В роботі подано алгоритм оцінки впливу гама-випромінювання, що випускається сумішшю радіоактивних речовин, на приймачі АОЛЗ. Розроблений алгоритм має істотне значення для проведення оцінки ступеня зниження виявляючої здатності приймачів в полі впливу гама-випромінювання і є основою для обґрунтування рекомендацій по вдосконаленню конструкції АОЛЗ, рекомендацій по розміщенню її з метою підвищення можливостей їх застосування в умовах впливу гама-випромінювання.
В результаті проведення розрахунків по запропонованому алгоритму обґрунтовано рекомендації. по збільшенням товщини приймального тракту приймача АОЛЗ. Визначено механізм формування зворотьніх та незворотьніх радіаційних ефектів, які призводять до збільшення темнового струму в приймачі АОЛЗ. Розроблений алгоритм оцінки впливу гама-випромінювання, що випускається сумішшю радіоактивних речовин в якості оціночного показника враховує відносне значення виявляючої здатності приймача АОЛЗ, як функції дози гама-випромінювання і потужності дози гама-випромінювання.
