Authors: Ji Chunyan
Published: March 2024

Objective: To analyze the efficacy of ultrasonic emulsification and small incision cataract extracapsular extraction in cataract patients. Methods: 96 cataract patients admitted from May 2021 to May 2023 were selected and randomly grouped into group A (ultrasonic emulsification) and group B (small-incision extracapsular cataract extraction), with 48 cases each. Results: At 1 week, 1-month, and 3 months post-operation, the visual acuity of group A was higher and the astigmatism value was lower than that of group B (P < 0.05); at 12h, 24h, and 48h post-operation, the intraocular pressure of group A was higher than that of group B (P < 0.05); the thickness of macular area of group A was lower than that of group B at 1 week and 1-month post-operation (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Ultrasonic emulsification in cataract patients was slightly better than small incision cataract extracapsular extraction in correcting astigmatism, improving visual acuity, and regulating macular thickness. However, due to the high energy of ultrasonic emulsification, the risk of complications such as high postoperative intraocular pressure was higher. Small-incision extracapsular cataract extraction has better application value in economically disadvantaged areas.

Authors: AVİNÇ AKPINAR İclal
Published: March 2024

In the present study, chemically surface-treated nanoparticles and nanofibers were added to the adhesive to improve the performance of the two-component structural adhesive. In the study, DP460 structural adhesive was used as adhesive, functionalized Multi Walled Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNT-COOH) with COOH and carbon fiber (CF) chemically surface treated with HNO3 solution were used as nanostructures. In the experimental study, eight different parameters were investigated as the nanostructure was (i) undoped, (ii) 1 wt% MWCNT-COOH added, (iii) 1wt%. untreated CF added, (iv) 0.5 wt% chemically treated CF added, (v) 1 wt% chemically treated CF added, (vi) 2 wt% chemically treated CF added, (vii) 0.5 wt% MWCNT-COOH and 0.5 wt% chemically treated CF added, and (viii) 1 wt% MWCNT-COOH and 1wt% chemically treated CF added. According to the results of the study, adding nanoparticles to the adhesive increases the performance of the adhesive by about 12%, while adding nanofibers increases the performance of the adhesive by about 18%. In addition, increasing the inertness and wettability of nanofibers by chemical treatment, as well as the use of nanoparticles and fibers together, significantly increases the performance of the adhesive. In addition, the obtained results were supported by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) analysis and scanning electron microscopic (SEM) analysis.

Authors: Walker Mariah , Lake Stephanie , Tempero José , Ong Kaye , Lucas Philippe
Published: March 2024

Objective: An increasing number of Canadians are registering as authorized users of medical cannabis. Older patients comprise a growing subset of this population; however, relatively little information exists around age-related patterns of medical cannabis use. Methods: The Canadian Cannabis Patient Survey (CCPS) is a large cross-sectional survey of authorized medical cannabis patients in Canada. This publication summarizes the results of the CCPS 2021, with a focus on age-related outcomes and the elderly sub-population. Results: The survey was completed by 2,697 patients. The mean age of participants was 54.3 years of age and the proportion of female respondents was 49.1%. Among older patients, pain was the most common symptom, while anxiety was the most common symptom reported by younger patients. Older patients exhibited a significant preference for oral administration over inhalation of medical cannabis when compared to younger patients, respectively (p>0.05). Among patients taking prescription opioids, most of whom were older patients, 54% reported a decrease in use concurrent with medical cannabis. Conclusions: Older patients comprise a growing subset of medical cannabis patients, which is also reflected in CCPS participants over time. This patient population exhibits different patterns of use compared to their younger counterparts, preferring high CBD orally ingested formulations, which they use primarily to treat pain-related illnesses/symptoms. Overall, study participants reported that cannabis had a high degree of efficacy in alleviating their illness/symptoms, and many reported a reduction in their use of prescription opioids, alcohol, tobacco, and other substances.

Authors: Niarman Abdurrahman , Iswandi Iswandi , Amuharnis Amuharnis
Published: March 2024

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a global health concern with a rising prevalence that necessitates early and accurate diagnosis for effective management. This study proposes the application of Machine Learning (ML), specifically Support Vector Machine (SVM), to classify CKD based on health care records. Leveraging a comprehensive dataset of patient health records, including clinical and demographic information, the research aims to develop a predictive model that can assist in the timely identification of individuals at risk of CKD. The methodology involves preprocessing the health care records, extracting relevant features, and implementing the SVM algorithm for classification. The dataset is divided into training and testing sets to evaluate the model's performance.  The SVM classification model that was developed after going through the data preprocessing process produced results that were good enough to be able to classify whether a patient was diagnosed with CKD or not with an accuracy level of 98% and a total of 400 lines of data and 25 features.

Authors: Thomas Tshenolo , Folly-Gbetoula Mensah
Published: March 2024

The main goal of this paper is to determine exact solutions of a family of thirtieth-order difference equations with variable coefficients. We use similarity variables obtained via symmetries to lower the order of the equations. We then reverse the transformations and obtain closed form solutions. We compare our solutions to those found in the literature for special cases. We investigate the periodic nature of the solutions and present some numerical examples to confirm the results. Finally, we analyze the stability of the equilibrium points. The method employed in this work can be applied to equations of higher order provided that they admit non zero characteristics.

Authors: Siroshtan K. , Pavliuk R.
Published: March 2024

The proposed article highlights the peculiarities of educational work in the territorial community regarding the provision of speech therapy services. Based on the theoretical analysis of scientific and methodical literature, the historical development, peculiarities and formation of the provision of speech therapy services and speech therapy as a science as a whole are studied. It was determined that the speech therapist can carry out corrective, diagnostic, preventive and educational work, but a special emphasis in this process is determined on the importance of the speech therapist's work in the territorial community regarding educational activities, cooperation with parents and raising the level of their pedagogical culture.

In order to study the awareness of residents of territorial communities (adults who have children), a survey was conducted regarding the provision of speech therapy services. The obtained results of the study proved that many parents have a certain understanding of the peculiarities of the child's speech development. Most of the answers indicate that parents understand when the child should begin to express the first phrases and communicate. A general trend is the desire of parents to be educated and informed about the speech development of their children. It is important to support this motivation of parents and ensure their access to reliable and trustworthy information resources. Informed parents can be more successful in addressing the issues of their children's speech development and contribute to their success in this area.

Prevention of speech disorders in children is important to ensure their successful development, so parents should have such information. Improving a child's speech is an extremely important process and plays a key role in communication, expression of thoughts, development of thinking and social skills.

The study emphasized the importance of informational work with parents aimed at spreading knowledge about the role of a speech therapist and the availability of speech therapy services for children in the community.

Authors: Dyka N.
Published: March 2024

The proposed article highlights the trajectory of effective teacher communication, in particular outlines the features of professional speech communication. The requests and needs of teachers were studied and practice-oriented recommendations and advice were developed regarding the peculiarities of the teacher's professional speech communication.

It is emphasized that modern society needs teachers of a new formation, capable of easily entering the cultural and intercultural space, qualitatively assimilating and transmitting the main meanings and values of the spiritual culture of humanity, possessing a high culture of speech. The forms of the communicative process and speech communication are distinguished. It was found out that the consequence of the expansion of the scope of oral speech is a decrease in the culture of written speech and the deterioration of literacy. Modern research on the outlined problem is analyzed. Certain difficulties in building the trajectory of effective communication of a modern teacher are identified, in particular: the need for a universal tool to overcome educational losses and gaps; searching for ways to improve the quality of language education; the need for linguistic and national self-identification of teachers; production and development of linguistic stability of educators; creation of a speech environment that would promote the development of effective communication skills; creation of a pedagogical center for the development and improvement of the culture of business speech; development of methodological tools for the implementation of reading strategies in general secondary education institutions, etc.

Examples of different level exercises and tasks that contribute to the improvement of professional speech communication are presented. Practical recommendations on the implementation of the personal trajectory of effective communication in the educational process are provided.

Conclusions were made that teachers' motivation to improve the Ukrainian language is increasing. It is noted that teachers use their own example to convince students that the state language is the highest value for the Ukrainian people. It was clarified that the development of teachers' speech culture and the implementation of linguistic didactic strategies of spelling, rhetorical and language-communicative competences of teachers in the system of continuous pedagogical education require further study.
Myths vs reality in Olga Tokarczuk’ collection of essays “Czuły narrator”
Authors: Matusiak Halyna
Published: March 2024

In her fiction and essays, О. Tokarczuk manifests inclination toward original interpretation of reality through a prism of mythology, reflection of the present by means of archaic optics, using instruments of universal plots, motives and characters. Her collection of essays “Chuły narrator” shows the writer’s evident interest in reevaluation of common notions about reality, deconstruction of stereotypical judgements and transformation of the traditional world picture under the influence of mythological worldview. The available literature studies, related to the book “Chuły narrator”, mainly consider narrative strategies on the basis of the concept “tender narrator”, introduced by the Polish writer in her Nobel Prize lecture. However, in the scientific discourse there is a lack of publications, dedicated to thorough analysis of O. Tokarczuk’s “Chuły narrator”, in particular, its neomythological attributes, that determines topicality and novelty of the theme of our research. The purpose of the study is to find out mythological intertexts in O. Tokarczuk’s book “Chuły narrator”, and also identify neomythological characteristics of her essays. In order to achieve the purpose, the following methods were used: contextual, intertextual, semiotic and poetological. Analysis of the essays in the book “Chuły narrator” allows making a conclusion about philosophical style as an indispensable feature of the Polish writer’s literary works. The author continuously rests on basic mythological notions about the Universe, fundamental philosophical categories, classic literature heritage and ideas of progressive thinkers of the past and present. One of O. Tokarczuk’s favorite motives is the journey motive which is interpreted on the basis of mythology and the author’s experience. The author virtuously interprets the archaic binary opposition “own–alien”, outlining the evolution of the idea about borders which are illusions that continue to cause large-scale disasters and crimes and deprive the world of its uniqueness. O. Tokarczuk’s works are characterized by numerous allusions to the works of verbal and visual art, intermedial method of articulating her viewpoints. The prospects of further research could be seen in studying O. Tokarczuk’s works in terms of intertextual relationships with the major philosophical systems and ideas of the leading thinkers of the present and past.
Climatic apocalypse in Roman Ehrlich's "Malé"
Authors: Macenka Svitlana
Published: March 2024

The highly relevant topic of current environmental disasters and the climatic apocalypse is considered within modern German-language ecocriticism with a particular focus on the phenomenon of "catastrophe without event" (Eva Horn) and the connection between apocalypse and utopia. In this respect, fictional depictions of environmental disasters appear important, enabling the rethinking of emergencies caused by said disasters and provoking a confrontation with specific reality. The objective of the study is to outline contemporary environmental crisis experience summarized on the example of shared reality of Malé in the eponymous novel of 2020 by the contemporary German novelist Roman Ehrlich. The study aims to fulfill the following tasks: representation of the ecological world view of a contemporary German author Roman Ehrlich; identification of the literary semantics of ecological apocalypse; analysis of Malé as a novel with enshrined ecocritical ideas. The research is based on the principles of culturological literary studies combined with ecocriticism. The novelty of research lies in the use of ecocriticism principles in the analysis of the novel by the German writer to demonstrate the active role of human beings in organization and disorganization of the world as well as the helplessness in the face of mighty nature, the vast spaces which stop being living spaces, losing this quality to forces which evade monitoring, control and use. Thus, the topic of the novel is the contemporary world in decline which, for the German writer, is embodied in one of the most attractive resorts on the planet - the Maldives. Mass tourism, environmental pollution (of the ocean in particular), manipulation of ethical and moral norms, and global warming have resulted in exact and rapid negative changes that threaten the islands' existence. It has been established that Roman Ehrlich shows our daily life as a simulated state of security. While witnessing the looming disaster, islanders get immersed in limitless free entertainment, boredom and fundamental statelessness. The author avoids patronizing notes. The characters' helplessness in the face of the apocalypse is reflected in the novel via the inability to formulate an explanatory narrative position regarding the catastrophe. The author follows the idea of essential loss of convincing narrative on social achievements or losses. Roman Ehrlich employs distinctly distant language when describing the disaster and uses artistic potential to play it out. Analysis of the novel stimulates conversation about the modern ecological crisis and the response of modern people to it, who, on the one hand, contributed significantly to the current critical state and, on the other hand, are its direct embodiment.
Does Resiliency Training for Acute Care Nurses During Their First Year in Practice Decrease Levels of Compassion Fatigue?
Authors: Hernandez Ashley
Published: March 2024

Compassion fatigue (CF) is a term to describe the exhaustion resulting from repeated exposure to stress, leading to both emotional and physical complications. Research investigating nurses experiencing CF demonstrates a decrease in productivity, an increase in medication errors, and decreased patient care. It is also associated with high turnover rates, which are costly for hospitals to absorb. Resiliency training is one intervention recommended to decrease CF. Stress management and resiliency-training programs are being researched to determine if they can give nurses the coping skills needed to combat CF. The purpose of this Quality Improvement Project is to develop an Evidenced Based Clinical Practice Update (EBCPU) to encourage nursing leadership to incorporate resiliency training into nurse residency programs to decrease levels of CF experienced by nurses. The design that is being proposed for this quality improvement project for new graduate nurses is a quasi-experimental, non-equivalent control group pretest-post-test. The intervention group receives resiliency training incorporated into their nurse residency education. Quantitative data will be collected using the measurement tool the Professional Quality of Life Scale-5 (ProQOL-5). Findings from the literature review were used to create an EBCPU encouraging inclusion of resiliency training into nurse residency programs to decrease CF leading to decreased nurse turnover, decreased hospital costs, and improved patient outcomes.

The lung disease diagnosis expert system utilizes human knowledge to diagnose various conditions affecting the lung. Diseases caused by fungal or bacterial infection in the organ can cause inflammation as well as death when it is not detected on time. A standard method to diagnose these conditions is the use of a chest X-ray (CXR), which requires careful examination of the image by an expert. In this study, several CNN and SVM architectural models were proposed to classify CXR images to diagnose whether a person has COVID-19, Viral Pneumonia, Bacterial Pneumonia, Tuberculosis (TB), and Normal. The experiment showed that InceptionV3 had the best results compared to other CNN architectures and SVM. Classification accuracy, precision, recall, and f1-score of CXR images for COVID-19, Viral Pneumonia, Bacterial Pneumonia, TB, and Normal were 0.86, 0.91, 0.91, and 0.91, respectively. This study was based on a deep learning system with different CNN and SVM architectures that can work well on the CXR images dataset for diagnosing lung disease.

Published: March 2024

PT ABC is one of the companies that provide online ticket-purchasing facilities amidst the rise of the digitalization era. So, companies need to see how application users complain as a form of evaluation and improvement. The rating results given by application users show a score of 3.3 from 172,000 reviews. The review results that will be examined are user reviews from January 2022 to April 1, 2023, which is more or less the last year of user comments. This research aims to form a review group using K-Means Clustering, the Elbow method, TF-IDF weighting, and analysis of review improvement strategies. The Elbow method is used to determine the optimal number of clusters so as not just to use assumptions. The success of the Elbow method in processing categorical data can be supported by assigning weights based on word frequency sequences using TF-IDF. The research analysis results show the formation of 4 clusters, with two tending to have negative sentiment, one neutral sentiment, and one positive sentiment. Mapping is carried out on each cluster to find out the characteristics of each cluster and possible causes of reviews, as well as providing solutions and strategies as a form of improvement. The problem of negative reviews appearing in each review group is different. It can be corrected with the proposed strategies, such as improving the appearance of features at the registration, ordering, and payment stages, adding payment methods, and carrying out regular system maintenance.
The process of forming knowledge: In the study of ontology, epistemology, and axiology
Authors: Rosida Rina Fatiya , Amaliah Laily Nur , Mahardika I Ketut , Suratno Suratno
Published: March 2024

Humans acquire knowledge based on their abilities as beings who think, feel, and sense. Knowledge is the result of knowing, and this occurs after people sense a certain object. Sensing occurs through the five human senses, namely the senses of sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch. Most of human knowledge is obtained through the eyes and ears. The purpose of this study is to describe science from a philosophical view from the perspective of ontology, epistemology, and axiology. Ontology, epistemology, and axiology are the basis for the development of science. Ontology can be defined as the essence of an existence which includes everything that exists. Knowledge comes from one's appreciation and understanding of the situation. Humans as subjects try to express, recognize, and know the objects around them. The object is in the form of reality or facts that function as a stimulus to the awareness possessed by humans. Knowledge is obtained through a cognitive process, where a person must first understand or recognize science to know that knowledge. There are three foundations in knowledge, namely the ontological, epistemological, and axiological foundations.
