Authors: Alshahrany Abdulrahman Nasser , Ibrahim Halijah Bt
Published: October 2021

Over recent decades, the common understanding of hearing impairment has improved.  People are more concerned with hearing impairment and have come to a consensus that care and positivity must be addressed. Therefore, recent trends in children with hearing disabilities inclusion have started in regular schools. The holistic training program provides opportunities for everyday people to learn about their abilities and special skills. The teacher needs to take care of the locomotive and object control skills of the child through the development of necessary motor skills to meet life requirements, such as walking, running, throwing, etc. The current study explores the ability of primary school children with hearing loss to incorporate an exergame to improve fundamental motor skills within an inclusive physical education classroom in Saudi Arabia. The study used a Qualitative Method and carried out a content analysis together with a Systematic Literature Review to understand the research carried out in this field. A detailed analysis was carried out of secondary data from articles indexed in Scopus and the websites of the scientific databases and other related documents in the field of study.  This study would expand the research awareness related to the success of vital engine skills in elementary school children with hearing impairment through the use of an exergame in comprehensive physical education.

Nausea and vomiting are some of the most common complaints of patients after any anesthesia, which is often associated with postoperative pain. The double-blind clinical trial study aimed to compare the prophylactic effect of dexamethasone and dexmedetomidine and their combination in reducing postoperative nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. One hundred sixty-two patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy were enrolled in the study. In the first group of patients, 25 mg of dexmedetomidine were administered slowly. In comparison, the patients in the second group received dexamethasone (4 ml/2 mg) with 0.1 mg/kg of normal saline solution. The third group received a combination of dexmedetomidine and dexamethasone. Hemodynamic changes were recorded during surgery and after surgery, and the patients were admitted to recovery. Nausea and vomiting scores were recorded 2 and 4 hours after surgery. Blood pressure and heart rate were lower in the dexmedetomidine group at all times (P<0.05). Two hours after surgery, the dexamethasone and dexmedetomidine combination group had less vomiting (P=0.012). The incidence of nausea 2 and 4 hours after surgery was lower in the dexamethasone and dexmedetomidine combination group (P<0.05). Blood pressure and heart rate were lower in the dexmedetomidine group at all times. The dexmedetomidine and dexamethasone combination decreased postoperative nausea and vomiting in patients. Therefore, we recommend using a dexmedetomidine and dexamethasone combination for reducing postoperative nausea and vomiting.

Postpartum hemorrhage is a leading cause of maternal mortality. Various methods can be used to evaluate the postpartum uterine cavity volume. This work aims to introduce a simple method for uterine postpartum cavity volume evaluation, called Postpartum Uterine Ultrasonographic Scale (PUUS), which could be used routinely. In this prospective study, 131 consecutive Caucasian patients were evaluated by using the PUUS method. The mean age was 27.72 years (ranging from 15 to 42). Patients were examined in the same time intervals: within the first 24-48 hours after delivery in case of vaginal delivery, and within the first 48-72 hours, in case of cesarean delivery. Patients with PUUS grades 2, 3, or 4 were reexamined daily until the PUUS grade declined to 1 or 0. The PUUS method evaluated the length of the endometrium of the uterine cavity occupied by blood or debris, from grade 0 (no blood) to grade 4 (over three-quarters of the endometrial length occupied by blood/debris). The PUUS grade of uterine involution varied with the day of examination, gestation, and parity. In this article, a novel method of evaluating uterine postpartum involution titled PUUS is introduced. This method standardized uterine cavity involution in a numerical fashion. We hope that the PUUS scale could further be used to decrease the morbidity and mortality of women due to postpartum hemorrhage.

Hemodialysis is a necessary treatment for end-stage kidney disease patients. It imposes undergoing three sessions of dialysis per week in a specialized center. Amid the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, precautionary measures were mandatory in all dialysis facilities and may have negatively impacted patients’ well-being. This study aimed to uncover the scale of this effect. We performed a cross-sectional study of all patients undergoing chronic hemodialysis in two dialysis units (one urban and another rural). Patients with Alzheimer’s disease were excluded. Patients filled a questionnaire including information on socio-demographics, factors related to the dialysis facility, and the impact of the COVID-19 epidemic on their mental health. A total of 72 patients responded. Their median age was 70 (60.79) years. Of them, 68% were males, 71% were married, and 10% were living alone. Following the pandemic, 35% felt more anxious, with a higher incidence of anxiety in the rural unit (p=0.021). Half of them felt very limited in their relationships, and 29% were isolated from their families. In total, 98% of patients were satisfied with the staff support. The imposed preventive measures were perceived as very strict in 27% of the surveyed patients. The majority of the urban group were bothered for not eating during the session, and they felt significantly more stress than the rural group (p=0.001). The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic increased anxiety among hemodialysis patients from a rural setting. Stress was more prevalent in the urban group and most probably related to limitations in eating during sessions. The majority were satisfied with staff support.

Vitamin D is known to alter immune regulation. It binds to the vitamin D receptors (VDR) expressed on T lymphocytes and macrophages. In individuals with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, serum vitamin D levels were found to be lower compared to healthy controls. The study’s objective was to investigate the association between VDR gene polymorphism (rs2228570) with blood serum levels of 25-OH vitamin D in patients with thyroid pathology from western Ukraine. The study involved a total of 153 patients with various forms of thyroid pathology. 25-OH vitamin D levels in the serum of the patients and healthy individuals were quantified with ELISA using the 25-OH vitamin D Total (Vit D-Direct) Test System ELISA Kit (Monobind Inc.®, United States, Product Code: 9425-300) on the EIA Reader Sirio S (Seac, Italy). Genotyping of the VDR (rs2228570) gene polymorphism was performed using TaqMan probes and TaqMan Genotyping Master Mix (4371355) on CFX96™Real-Time PCR Detection System (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc., USA). Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for TaqMan genotyping was carried out according to the kit instructions (Applied Biosystems, USA). Our research identified that that genotype variants of VDR rs2228570 are not risk factors for reduced serum 25-OH vitamin D or vitamin D deficiency in patients with various forms of thyroid pathology patients in the West-Ukrainian population. Vitamin D levels were significantly lower in the carriers of AA and AG genotypes with hypothyroidism caused by autoimmune thyroiditis. In AA genotype carriers with postoperative hypothyroidism, 25-OH vitamin D levels were significantly lower compared to AA genotype carriers with autoimmune thyroiditis.

Large meta-analyses demonstrated that ureteral access sheaths (UAS) have specific complications during and after flexible ureteroscopy (fURS). The present study focused on the technical aspects, advantages, drawbacks, and limitations of the latest “no-touch” technique (NTT) in the flexible ureteroscopic therapeutic approach of renal stones. A total of 288 patients with a single pyelocaliceal stone (largest diameter between 11 and 29 mm) underwent fURS: 144 using the 12/14 Fr UAS (group 1) and 144 without UAS (group 2). For NTT, we used four types of ureteroscopes: Olympus URF-V2 (8.5 Fr) – 33 cases, Storz Flex X2 (8.4 Fr) – 60 cases, single-use PUSEN PU 3022 (9.5 Fr) – 37 cases, and single-use PUSEN – PU 3033A (7.5 Fr) – 14 cases. For group 1, we used the Olympus URF–V2 ureteroscope in 44 cases, the Storz Flex X2 in 58 cases, and the single-use PUSEN PU 3022 in 42 cases. We compared the operative time, hospitalization periods, and complications. Successful access sheath insertion was noted in 83.3% of cases from group 1, and successful ureteroscope insertion was noted in 90.9% of cases from group 2. The average operative time was slightly higher in group 1 vs. group 2 (47 vs. 39 min). Stone-free rates (SFRs) were overall lower in group 2 (76.3% vs. 86.8%) at 1 month. At 3 months, we did not find a significant difference between these two groups. Superficial mucosal ureteral wall lesions were found in 38.8% of patients from group 1 and 4.1% from group 2. Hospitalization periods were longer in group 1 vs. group 2 (21 vs. 29 hours, respectively). The single-use 7.5 Fr ureteroscope should receive a special mention: the insertion was simple, we did not encounter any mucosal ureteral wall lesions, and all patients were discharged on the same day. Despite the clear advantages of routine UAS usage, there are many adverse events for the patient. Larger diameter sheaths involve a greater risk of ureteral wall injury. NTT seems to improve peri- and postoperative safety while preserving therapeutic efficiency. The new 7.5 Fr ureteroscopes appear to optimize surgical efficiency and diminish complications in the flexible ureteroscopic treatment of renal stones.

This study aimed to investigate the patient satisfaction level in terms of communication and interaction with the physicians from a Romanian Infectious Disease hospital. The objectives of the study were related to the identification of the general level of satisfaction of the patients, the evaluation of the physicians’ interaction type with their physicians, by using specific behavioral variables, such as respect and attention, as well as to determine the physician-patient communication quality. The data were collected with a self-administered questionnaire and were analyzed using IBM SPSS version 25. The sample comprised 82 patients who were hospitalized in the Department of Infectious Diseases. The quantitative variables were evaluated with the Shapiro-Wilk test and were described by the means and standard deviations, while the qualitative data were described by using the absolute values and percentages. The vast majority of patients were aged between 18–28 years old, were mostly females from urban areas, and 41.5% had university degrees. The outcomes of the study revealed that the general satisfaction of the patients, from a communication perspective, was reflected in the perceived and provided quality of information about the treatment. Although the vast majority of patients highly appreciated the interaction and the communication with their physicians, some individuals felt the need to read more information about their disease, especially from online sources, and they would have preferred their physicians to recommend trustful websites or health care platforms.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of health education in the Tatarstan Republic by establishing educational programs – Health Schools – for groups of patients with a high risk of developing potentially fatal cardiac and respiratory conditions. The concept of “Life Course Health Development” implies the development of mechanisms for personalized health management. The goal of the study is to explore the effectiveness of the specialized Health Schools in Tatarstan. For the comparative study of health education effects on the overall state of personal health, 590 patients were surveyed in a randomized controlled trial. The groups of patients were compared in relation to their health education; their health status was observed prior to and afterward undergoing the educative preventative programs and estimated in comparison between the two groups. Extrapolation of the data on Tatarstan’s patient population was obtained through this study, taking into account the state of health of the Health Schools students, obtaining the regression equations of population mortality and the effects of training on it. The effectiveness of Health Schools for patients with cardiovascular pathology has been proven. However, additional efforts are required to involve a wider range of patients and increase learning effectiveness to critical levels of awareness by introducing new forms of education in Health Schools since it statistically significantly increased the awareness level regarding disease nature and preventive measures.

Published: October 2021

Se evaluaron dos pruebas de campo para determinar la Mastitis Subclinica en bovinos. Se utilizó un total de 268 vacas en producción de leche, entre 1 a 10 partos, en dos sectores San Lorenzo y Miraflores de Levanto. En un sistema extensivo, su alimentación a base de pasturas naturales y cultivadas, un solo ordeño manual, y se consideró desde la segunda semana hasta 5 meses de lactación. Se utilizó el método biológico (Prueba California - Mastitis Test) y el método químico (Prueba de Whiteside), los que permitieron comprobar cuál de las pruebas fue más eficiente para la detección de la mastitis bovina. Los resultados demostraron que el 100 % de prevalencia de mastitis subclínica, según el número de partos, se reporta que el mayor porcentaje de prevalencia se muestra en el 4 parto y según los cuartos mamarios, se reporta que el anterior y posterior derecho reporta el 30 % de prevalencia. Se evidenció un 47% de efectividad en la prueba Whitside y el 53% en la prueba California Mastitis Test. Esto dificulta la confiabilidad en criadores de ganado con ambas pruebas. Sin embargo, si se tuviera que utilizar una de las dos, sería la California Mastitis Test.

The peculiarities of using games as a means of improving effectiveness of the Russian language class and experiment with the use of games in teaching Russian language at Hanoi National University of Education
Authors: Kao Thi Th'ju Lyong
Published: October 2021

The subject of this research is the peculiarities of different types of translation activity in the process of teaching students of non-philological specialties at Hanoi National University of Education. Being the direct participant of bilingual communication, the student applies the following behavioral vectors: reproduction of the semantic-structural peculiarities of the original text and adaptation of the translation text to a new linguocultural perception. This is namely the key to success in the bilingual communication, since the translator fulfills the communicative, ideological, cumulative (culturological) and even a correctional functions attempting to create the original text without flaws and shortcomings of the original text due incompetence of its author. Fulfilling any of these functions, the translator must desubjectivize the original text (extract the subjective meaning) and the translation text (taking into account the characteristics of the addressee) for the purpose of adequate objectification of the translation text in accordance with the situation. In this regard, the modern methods and techniques implemented in the pedagogical practice of Hanoi National University of Education are particularly relevant. The scientific novelty of this research lies in the attempt to determine the peculiarities of using games as a means of improving effectiveness of the Russian language class and implementation of game-based learning at Hanoi National University of Education.

Rīgas Sociālā dienesta dati par darbinieku mainību parāda, ka 2018. gadā sociālajā dienestā tika pieņemts 81 darbinieks, bet atbrīvoti tika 78 darbinieki. 2015. gadā veiktā pētījumā tika aptaujāti Rīgas patversmes sociālie darbinieki. Aptaujas rezultāti rādīja, ka 20?% respondentu ētiskās dilemmas un grūtības lēmuma pieņemšanā ieņem nozīmīgu vietu to grūtību vidū, ar kurām darbinieki saskaras ikdienas praksē. 2020. gadā veiktā pētījuma “Sociālā darba ētika ierobežotu personāla resursu apstākļos sociālajā dienestā” mērķis bija izpētīt sociālo darbinieku tipiskākās ētisko dilemmu risināšanas stratēģijas ierobežotu personāla resursu apstākļos Rīgas Sociālajā dienestā un sagatavot priekšlikumus sociālajiem darbiniekiem, kā šādos apstākļos efektīvi veikt klientu apkalpošanu. Lai sasniegtu pētījuma mērķi, tika anketēti 43 Rīgas Sociālā dienesta sociālie darbinieki, kuri sniedz sociālos pakalpojumus Rīgas pašvaldības iedzīvotājiem, kā arī tika veiktas padziļinātās intervijas ar diviem Rīgas Sociālā dienesta sociālajiem darbiniekiem, kuriem ir vislielākais darba stāžs sociālā darba nozarē. Pētījumā secināts, ka ierobežotu personāla resursu apstākļos tipiskākās ētiskās dilemmas ir personiskās un profesionālās vērtības un klienta vērtības; resursu sadale un klienta pamatvajadzību nodrošināšana; patiesības teikšana un klienta aizsardzības ievērošana; likumu, noteikumu ievērošana un ētisko vērtību saglabāšana. Sociālā dienesta sociālie darbinieki ētisko dilemmu risināšanai nozarē dod priekšroku uz procesu orientētās ētiskās dilemmas risināšanas stratēģijai.

A refined physical model of the jet ejector working process has been compiled. On the basis of the refined physical model, a mathematical model has been developed that takes into account the exchange of work and heat between the ejected and ejected gases. Based on the solution of this mathematical model, it is possible to formulate a method for calculating the optimal geometric dimensions of the jet ejector to obtain the specified thermodynamic parameters and a method for calculating the characteristics of the jet ejector with known geometric dimensions. The effect of viscosity on energy exchange is shown. The agreement between the calculated and experimental data is satisfactory.
Justification scheme for milling waffle background

Published: October 2021

In the manufacture of dry and fuel compartments of missiles ensuring weight tolerance is a priority. In practice, this is ensured by the introduction of lightweight materials together with the optimal design of the supporting set of ribs (waffle background) of orthotropic shells and waffle shells. The manufacturing technology of which is difficult and costly in view of the difficulty of ensuring the accuracy and perfection of the shape of the waffle background cell. In modern conditions, when manufacturing a waffle shell for a fuel tank, reinforcement processing is carried out by milling on a monolithic blank using specialized machine systems. At the same time, the choice of the waffle background processing scheme remains an urgent issue: on a flat panel or on a bent shell. The problem of selection arises due to the requirements for the accuracy of the waffle background. It is important to maintain the part mass tolerance and geometric perfection of the cell shape. All this generally affects the perception of design loads and the carrying capacity of the rocket. At the same time, the methods and processes of processing the waffle background should be productive and economically feasible. The proposed justification will make it possible at the start of the design of new promising products to more accurately determine the technological and production costs necessary for the production of parts with a waffle background with given parameters and accuracy.

Purpose. Determination of the influence of the intraocular lens (IOL) inclination and decentration on the magnitude of induced astigmatism in a theoretical study using software on an eye model. Material and methods. An eye model with the specified parameters was performed to carry out the calculation. Modulation of the change in the wavefront was carried out using the Zemax program (LLC, USA). In the model eye, the probability of induction of astigmatism was analyzed depending on the change in the position of the aspherical IOL Acrysof IQ 16.0, 22.0 and 24.0 diopters and the toric model Acrysof IQ Toric SN6AT3, SN6AT4 and SN6AT5. The angle of inclination of the IOL relative to the horizontal plane was examined from 0° to 10° with a step of 1°, decentration from 0.1 to 1.5 mm with a step of 0.1 mm. At each IOL position, aberration data of the 2nd order Z (2, 2) were recorded. The obtained results were used to calculate the critical tilt angle and decentration. Results. The magnitude of induced astigmatism increased with the rise of the degree of inclination and decentration, corresponding to an increase in the optical power of the IOL. Accordingly, critically significant were the values of 3.0° inclination for the aspherical IOL with an optical power of 22.0 and 22.0 diopters and 3.5° for 16.0 diopters, decentration – 0.7 mm and 1.0 mm. The inclination of the TIOL relative to the horizontal plane revealed the induction of the magnitude of inverse astigmatism, according to an increase in the inclination angle of 0.3 diopters at a slope of 3–4°. Conclusions. The tilt and decentration of the aspherical and TIOL patterns induce astigmatism depending on the increase in IOL power. The inclination of the TIOL in relation to the horizontal plane set at 90 ° promotes the induction of astigmatism. Key words: astigmatism, toric intraocular lenses, tilt and decentration of the intraocular lens, ray tracing

Relevance. The study of the mechanisms of insufficiently rapid achievement of high visual acuity in the early postoperative period in the correction of myopia by the SMILE method is relevant. Purpose. To evaluate changes in corneal densitometry parameters after SMILE and FS-LASIK surgery in patients with moderate myopia. Material and methods. A study of 152 patients with moderate myopia was conducted, 68 were operated by SMILE and 84 – FS-LASIK. All procedures were performed using a VisuMax femtosecond laser and a MEL 80 excimer laser (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Germany). Assessment of visual acuity, corneal structure (OCT, Optovue, USA), corneal densitometry (Pentacam Scheimpflug, Germany) were performed before the operation, on the 1st, 5th day, 3, 6, 12 months after the operation. OCT scans were analyzed using the ImageJ program. Results. Оn the 1st day after SMILE, visual acuity (p=0.01) and transparency of the anterior and middle layers of the cornea were reduced than after FS-LASIK in the zone from 0 to 2 mm (p=0.045, p=0.001), from 2 to 6 mm (both p=0.001). These differences became statistically insignificant 5 days after surgery. By three and six months in the FS-ERASER group, the corneal transparency in the middle layers were reduced in the 0–2 mm and 2–6 mm zones (p=0.0001, p=0.001). In both groups, by 12 months, the corneal backscattering reached the values of the preoperative period (p>0,05). Conclusion. Refractive operations SMILE and FS-LASIK are accompanied by a decrease in corneal transparency, which is restored to preoperative values by 12 months. In the early postoperative period, an increase in densitometry indicators and a slower recovery of visual acuity after SMILE surgery may be due to active remodeling of the interface, which includes fragments of collagen fibrils and cellular components inside the intrastromal space.

Purpose. To present results of cataract surgery in children with retinoblastoma. Material and methods. Within the period from 2012 to 2020, cataract surgery was performed in 21 children (22 eyes) with retinoblastoma aged 28 to 155 months (average – 65 months). Tumors of group B occurred in 2 cases, group C – in 4, group D – in 14, group E – in 1. In 8 cases, cataract occurred in a single eye. Posterior capsular cataract was observed in 18 patients, total – in 3. In all cases, the presence of cataract impeded the control of the tumor. Before cataract surgery all children underwent systemic chemotherapy, some of them also underwent intra-arterial and/or intravitreal chemotherapy, external beam radiotherapy, Gamma Knife stereotactic radiosurgery and local treatment modalities (episcleral plaque brachytherapy, thermotherapy, cryotherapy). There were no signs of tumor progression in all cases at the time of cataract surgery. The mean interval between complete tumor regression and cataract surgery was 23 months (range 6–75 months). Results. Full transparency of optical media was achieved in all eyes after surgery. No intraoperative and postoperative complications occurred. The final visual acuity was improved in 12 eyes, in the rest visual acuity could not be determined due to age. There were no signs of tumor recurrence or metastases in mean follow-up after surgery of 29 months (range 3–60). Conclusion. Our experience of cataract surgery in children with complete regression of retinoblastoma was proved to be a safe and effective way to improve visual functions and achieve transparency of optical media.
