Published: February 2023

Imagery rescripting (ImRs) of socially aversive memories is a promising intervention in the treatment of Social Anxiety Disorder. Little is known about the effects of ImRs on physiological responses to the rescripted socially aversive memory, which was the focus of this study in a healthy sample. Thirty individuals performed an imagination task measuring psychophysiological responses and subjective feelings (post-hoc) related to the rescripted memory, as well as to two control memories. In a within-subject design, participants completed the imagination task before and after a control intervention, and subsequently after one session ImRs of the socially aversive memory. At one-week follow-up, lasting effects on social anxiety and subjective feelings were assessed online (N = 26). ImRs of the socially aversive memory resulted in a significant reduction in negative feelings and activity of the corrugator supercilii, as well as a significant increase in valence and positive feelings related to the socially aversive memory compared to both control memories. However, only effects for positive feelings and corrugator supercilii were significantly stronger for ImRs compared to the control intervention. Lasting effects appeared for fear of negative evaluation and subjective emotional responses to the rescripted memory. These findings give preliminary evidence for the impact of ImRs on emotional aspects of the rescripted memory, indicating that ImRs might work through changing the representation of the aversive event in memory.
Implications of the Symptom-Level Overlap Among DSM Diagnoses for Dimensions of Psychopathology
Authors: Forbes Miriam K.
Published: February 2023

Research on the patterns of covariation among mental disorders has proliferated, as summarized in the Hierarchical Taxonomy of Psychopathology (HiTOP). The aim of this brief descriptive study was to examine whether the repetition of symptoms among DSM-5 diagnoses is likely to be inflating the surface similarity of diagnoses in a way that artificially reinforces the dimensions that emerge when modelling patterns of disorder covariation or comorbidity. Specifically, the symptoms comprising the DSM-5 diagnostic criteria for all disorders covered by the HiTOP framework were examined for patterns of overlap that mirror the patterns of disorder covariation captured in HiTOP dimensions. I found that 358 pairs of the DSM-5 diagnoses covered by the HiTOP framework had one or more overlapping symptoms in their diagnostic criteria, and that a third (n = 130; 34%) of the unique constituent symptoms reinforced the higher-order structure of HiTOP through repetition within dimensions and/or between dimensions in the same superspectrum. By contrast, 86% of the possible pairs of diagnoses did not have any shared symptoms, and the majority of the symptoms (n = 222; 58%) did not influence the structure through repetition. Further, a fifth (n = 71; 19%) of the symptoms worked against the HiTOP structure by increasing the surface similarity of diagnoses under different subfactors, spectra, and superspectra. Overall, while patterns of symptom-level overlap do not appear strong enough to account for the emergence of HiTOP dimensions, these patterns do seem likely to inflate the similarity and consequent covariation of some DSM-5 diagnoses. Research on the statistical structure of psychopathology that uses DSM-5 diagnostic constructs should account for this potential source of bias.

Authors: Alan Mehmet Akif
Published: February 2023

Objectives: This study evaluated the results of the hearing screening program in school-age children in our region and their etiologies. Patients and Methods: The school-age hearing screening audiometry results of 6,073 first-year primary school students (2,915 males, 3,158 females; mean age: 75.6±3.9 years; range, 66 to 84 years) performed between January 2019 and March 2020 were retrospectively scanned from the Ministry of Health National Hearing Screening Program database. The data of children who were referred due to hearing screening failure or risk factors were also scanned and included in the study. Results: One hundred eighty-three (3%) of the 6,073 first-year students who underwent screening audiometry were referred to an otolaryngologist due to failing the test or risk factors. Of the 183 referred children, 74 (40.5%) had impacted cerumen, and 48 (26.5%) had otitis media with effusion. Control audiometry tests of 61 (33%) children were normal. No statistically significant difference was observed in referral rates between the sexes. The hearing loss type was conductive hearing loss in all children with hearing loss. Conclusion: Although impacted cerumen is an easily preventable cause, it negatively affects academic performance, speech, and language development when left untreated. The high incidence of preventable and treatable hearing loss in preschool and school-age children and, although not observed in our study, the prevalence of acquired sensorineural hearing loss in these age groups shows the importance of hearing screening programs and the need for widespread use.

Published: February 2023

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of surgical treatment on disease control, survival rates, and prognostic factors in patients with pT3N0 laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma. Patients and Methods: Files of pT3N0 laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) patients who were surgically treated between January 2009 and December 2019 were retrospectively screened. Forty-four patients (42 males, 2 females; mean age: 59.6±9.2 years; range, 44 to 86 years) diagnosed with pT3N0 LSCC who underwent total laryngectomy or partial laryngectomy as primary treatment were included in the study. Results: The mean follow-up period of the patients was 45.8±38.4 months. The tumor was supraglottic in 20 patients, glottic in 21 patients, and transglottic in three patients. Total laryngectomy was performed in 32 patients, and partial laryngectomy was performed in 12 patients. In five (11.3%) of the patients, recurrence occurred. There was no statistically significant link between recurrence and tumor location, surgical technique, or perineural or lymphovascular invasion. The five-year survival rate was 72.7%, with no differences in survival rates based on the type of surgery performed. Conclusion: Surgical treatment is a safe option for pT3N0 squamous cell carcinoma patients. In patients with appropriate criteria, partial laryngectomy has a similar success to total laryngectomy.

Published: February 2023

The boron-doped silicon layers commonly used to fabricate various micro-mechanical elements, particularly silicon membranes, are efficient stop-etching barriers, so their control is crucial in the bulk micromachining technology. As the properties of the boron doped layers depends on the type of the doping source and on the diffusion depth in the silicon bulk, a particular analysis should be applied in each specific case. In this paper there are reported the results of an analytical modeling of the boron diffusion profile in silicon, which are applied to simulate the boron diffusion profile at high diffusion temperatures (1050°C, 1100°C, 1150°C and 1200°C), emphasizing a dependence of the diffusion coefficient as a square root of the boron diffusion concentration. It is shown that the comparison of the theoretical results and some experimental diffusion data after diffusion at 1050°C shows a very good agreement, well supporting the analytical modeling. On this basis, the chemical etching rate and the etching time are simulated as a function of the boron diffusion depth in silicon for various etching solutions and etching conditions, providing suitable guiding curves for practical applications in the bulk micromachining technology

Published: February 2023

A new algorithm for unconstrained optimization based on the cubic regularization in two dimensional subspace is developed. Different strategies for search direction are also discussed. The stepsize is computed by means of the weak Wolfe line search. Under classical assumptions it is proved that the algorithm is convergent. Intensive numerical experiments with 800 unconstrained optimization test functions with the number of variables in the range [1000 - 10,000] show that the suggested algorithm is more efficient and more robust than the well established conjugate gradient algorithms CG-DESCENT, CONMIN and L-BFGS (m=5). Comparisons of the suggested algorithm versus CG-DESCENT for solving five applications from MINPACK-2 collection, each of them with 40,000 variables, show that CUBIC is 3.35 times faster than CG-DESCENT.

"Immediate breast reconstruction is a surgical technique that involves placing an implant or expander in the same operation with the mastectomy intervention. Thus, the remaining flaps are viable, fresh and the remaining space can be filled with an implant. Patient satisfaction is increased, thus avoiding the psychological shock of not having a breast and they support better the following interventions. The aim of this paper is to review and find in the current literature the indications and technique of immediate breast reconstruction in order to help surgeons to choose and perform the most appropriate breast reconstruction method. We have also researched in the literature the rates of complications that have arisen, especially in the case of subsequent radiotherapy. Multidisciplinary approach of these cases presented the key to success, oncological safety is the main concern, then the reconstruction must respect the patient's requirements and ensure the best aesthetic result."

Vulvar cancer is an uncommon gynecological malignancy primarily affecting postmenopausal women and is the fourth most common gynecologic cancer. There is no specific screening and the most effective strategy to reduce vulvar cancer incidence is the opportune treatment of predisposing and preneoplastic lesions associated with its development. Vulvar carcinoma can be HPV-positive or HPV- negative. Any suspicious vulvar lesion should be biopsied to exclude invasion.

Degenerative aortic stenosis is an inflammatory process, affecting up to 12% of patients aged over 85 years. Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has become the preferred option for symptomatic, high and intermediate risk patients, including those denied for surgical valve replacement. Aortic stenosis is associated with prolonged atrio-ventricular (AV) conduction time, as well as higher degree of AV conduction disorders. In addition, it was observed that TAVI patients have a higher incidence of conduction abnormalities during the procedure, as well as during the following days, many of them requiring the implantation of a permanent pacemaker. Definitive guidelines for management of the conduction disorders are not yet available, the burden of choosing the best approach being put on each individual clinician.

Pediatric inflammatory multisystem syndrome (PIMS) is a condition related to the previous exposure to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. The pathophysiology of PIMS is not fully understood. However, it can be explained as a consequence of hyperactivation of the immune system. Clinically, PIMS usually follows 2-4 weeks after SARS-CoV-2 infection and its main symptom is fever that lasts for a few days. The diagnosis of PIMS is established by detailed anamnesis, clinical examination, and biological changes such as increasing levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6), D-dimer, NT-proBNP and anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibodies. The intensive treatment should be quickly initiated, as the consequences could be fatal. The treatment is represented by a combination of intravenous immunoglobulins, corticosteroids and anticoagulants.
Gender and graduating results in the Anesthesiology and Intensive Care Abomey-Calavi (Cotonou, Benin) program

Published: February 2023

Background: For unknown reasons female participation in anesthesiology is very low in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), especially in West Africa, and few women reach top academic or clinical positions.

Objective: Women reduced professional perspectives.

Design: Male and female residents’ performances were compared when they presented for their first try the graduating exams of the specialty.

Settings: The Cotonou anesthesiology and intensive care training center, the second largest in French-speaking SSA, where 146 anesthesiologists from 14 African countries graduated since its creation in 1996.

Method: All results at their final exams (consisting in 3 written questions and 2 clinical evaluations) were retrieved for the 125 men and 21 women who graduated. Scores obtained by women and males were compared using Student’s t tests. Their total of points was used to divide graduates into deciles. The proportion of women was counted in each decile.

Results: Women performed better at both anesthesia and intensive care clinical evaluations taken separately and together (total 68.2% vs. 64.2% p=0.004) and were even with men for the three written exams (anesthesia, intensive care and basic sciences - total 66.2 % vs. 66.1% p=0.99). When clinical and written scores are added in each sector, women scored better than males for anesthesiology (69.2% vs. 65.2% p=0.01) and were even for intensive care (65.0% vs. 64.1% p=0.51). Globally women and men results were similar (67% vs. 65%, p=0.1) The proportion of women in each decile increased from the lowest to the best deciles, but the absolute low number of women gives this trend borderline significance (slope +1,56 % women per decile, p=0.046)**.

Conclusion: Women performance at end-specialty exams is unlikely to explain their subsequent underrepresentation at the academic level in anesthesia and intensive care in SSA**.
Chronic pain after surgery and trauma: current situation and future directions
Authors: Lavand’homme P
Published: February 2023

Chronic post-surgical pain (CPSP) stands as a major health issue. The unchanged incidence over the last two decades underlines both the failure of predictive models developed until now and the lack of efficacy of common “preventive” strategies (pharmacotherapy and regional analgesic techniques) applied in current clinical practice. The recognition of CPSP as a disease and the release of a common definition of the condition is an important progress in the field. CPSP predictive scores exist but none has presently demonstrated an impact on patient care. New clinical directions based on the resolution of postoperative pain, a complex and highly dynamic process supported by individual pain trajectories, argue for predictive models and preventive strategies extended to the subacute pain period i.e. after hospital discharge.

A study was conducted to determine the feeding preference of the bagworm, Metisa plana on different palm species in no-choice and choice feeding tests. In the laboratory study, the larvae of bagworm, M. plana were fed with leaves of four palm species namely oil palm (Elaeis guineensis), coconut (Cocos nucifera), red sealing wax palm (Cyrtostachys renda) and salak (Salacca zalacca). In the no-choice feeding test, the bagworms were fed with leaves of each selected palm species and in the choice feeding test, the M. plana were fed in pairs with leaves of E. guineensis as a constant diet and each of C. nucifera, C. renda and S. zalacca respectively. Furthermore, the feeding preference of bagworms on E. guineensis and C. nucifera leaves was evaluated in a semi-field trial. The result of the laboratory study showed that C. nucifera was the most preferred host plant followed by E. guineensis, C. renda and S. zalacca. The M. plana fed with C. nucifera leaves recorded 28.83 cm2 and 22.01cm2 of total leaflet area consumed in the no-choice feeding test and choice feeding test respectively. The bagworms feeding on leaves of C. nucifera showed 33.33 per cent survival rate and were observed to have the fastest larval development and transformation to pupal stage. The leaves of C. nucifera were preferred over E. guineensis despite the latter being the observed host plant of this bagworm species. In no-choice assessments, the M. plana fed with E. guineensis leaves recorded a total leaf area consumption at 26.89 cm2 and showed only a 13.33 per cent survival rate. C. renda and S. zalacca leaves were recorded as the least preferred host plant and recorded a low leaf area consumption at 14.67cm2 and 11.40 cm2 in no-choice feeding and 1.29 cm2 and 5.05 cm2 in choice feeding respectively. The M. plana that were fed with the two respective palms did not survive to the pupal stage. In the semi-field study, similar results were obtained as C. nucifera was recorded as the more preferred host plant by the bagworm as compared to E. guineensis. The cumulative damage on the leaves of the palms was recorded at 29.37 per cent for C. nucifera and 13.13 per cent for E. guineensis. In the choice feeding test, the bagworms fed with leaves of C. nucifera recorded 12.71 per cent and that of E. guineensis at 8.19 per cent of cumulative damage. The percentage of survival rate of bagworms that were fed with C. nucifera leaves was recorded to be significantly higher (P<0.05) at 18.75 ± 2.16 per cent as compared to E. guineensis that recorded only 9.50 ± 1.53 per cent. Keywords: Bagworm, Metisa plana, feeding preference, oil palm, coconut, red sealing wax palm, salak palm.

Published: February 2023

In our age, the importance of raising people with analytical, creative and thought. thoughts is increasing day by day The aim of the modern education is to educate people who can solve problems by centering the person, aim to learn, and are aware of their interests and abilities. Therefore, considering education with a researcher and entrepreneurial spirit, human natural abilities should be developed and conscious guidance should be made about the profession. On of the main purposes of education is to guide people to choose a profession that is suitable for their knowledge and skills by improving their natural abilities. Because the purpose of education is to guide and educate people in line with their own goals. Therefore, education means raising people, disciplining them, imposing values. In addition, another purpose of education is to include teaching activities that include science, art, technique, culture and elements. Therefore, the education that starts with a certain goal continues with information acquisition and vocational teaching activities. In short, if we need to draw the pulley of education it can be said that education is the perfection of man. As Immanuel Kant (1724-1804) expressed, man has a unique equipment in terms of self-education. In the study, the importance of vocational counseling in the context of educational philosophy was once again taken into consideration. During the professional orientation process, the counseling relationship, professional development and issues that should be considered in directing the person in the choice of profession are emphasized.
A laparoszkópos és transzcervikális termékenyítés alkalmazásának lehetőségei a juhtenyésztésben

Published: February 2023

A szerzők bemutatják az asszisztált reprodukciós technikák lehetőségeit a juhtenyésztésben, amelyeknek e fajban is egyre nagyobb a jelentősége. A fagyasztott sperma felhasználása esetében a legsikeresebb módszer a laparoszkópos termékenyítés, amelynek során a szaporítóanyagot a hasfalon keresztül a méhszarvakba injektálják. A fagyasztott sperma másik felhasználási módszere lehet a transzcervikális termékenyítés, amikor a termékenyítő katétert a méhnyakon átvezetve a spermiumokat a méh üregébe juttatják. A technika alkalmazhatóságának korlátai miatt ez az eljárás még nem terjedt el a gyakorlatban, azonban előnyei miatt kiváló kutatási téma lehet a juh szaporodásbiológiában.

Nőknél a gyermekvállalási idő kitolódásával az anti-Müller-hormonszint mérésének jelentősége egyre inkább felértékelődik a meddőségi kivizsgálásban. Információt nyújt a petefészektartalék nagyságáról, azaz a rendelkezésre álló tüsző- és petesejttartalékokról, továbbá segítségével a korai menopauza előfordulási valószínűsége is megbecsülhető. Kancáknál és teheneknél azonban jóval kevesebb kutatást végeztek e téren, noha a hatékony reprodukció szempontjából kulcsfontosságúak lennének ezek a vizsgálatok. Az asszisztált reprodukciós technikák segítségével a szaporodási teljesítmény optimalizálható, ám ezek eredményessége nagymértékben függ az adott egyed jellemzőitől, így az állatok szigorú szelekciója kiemelten fontos ezen technikák alkalmazását megelőzően. Jelen közleményben a szerzők összefoglalják a hormon élettani szerepét, a petefészektartalék kapacitásával és az életkorral való összefüggéseket, valamint ismertetik a biomarkerként való alkalmazhatóság lehetőségeit.

Coral reefs are among the world’s most diversified marine ecosystems. While their rich biodiversity is essential to many social and economic activities, they face unprecedented cumulative impacts from climate change and anthropogenic development. Aligning governance structures with ecological processes has become key to sustaining ecosystem services. Nevertheless, a major obstacle to informing decision-making is the lack of empirical data on interacting ecological and social processes. Therefore, novel methods for facilitating the assessment of coral reef social-ecological systems are necessary.

Authors: Novac Adi
Published: February 2023

”E virusul de New York”, mi-a spus omul ce-si petrecuse toata ziua in Times Square, cersind de la turistii ce hoinareau prin zona. ”E un virus de care nu mai scapi, oricat te-ai trata. Odata ce te infectezi, gata, s-a zis cu tine. Nu mai ai ce-i face. Vei deveni dependent de orasul asta si nu o sa mai poti sa scapi de el. Iti intra-n piele, in oase, in sange, in plasma, te subjuga complet. Si dace vei pleca pe undeva, o sa-i duci dorul, o sa vezi, man. O sa fii disperat, vei vrea sa te intorci imediat. E ca o amanta la care nu poti renunta, orice ai face. Revii mereu la ea, chiar daca acum ai alta iubita. Nu o sa poti trai fara ea prea mult timp, intelegi? Doar asteapta sa treaca cateva luni si o sa-mi dai dreptate. Te vei imbolnavi de orasul asta si nu-ti va mai trece cu nimic. De oras, de oameni, de locuri. Chiar si metroul asta imputit, plin de sobolani si de urina, o sa-ti lipseasca”, asa mi-a zis batranul acela.

Daca nu stii cum plange o vioara, n-ai cum sa intelegi cum canta iubirea. Drumul celor care se cauta pe sine este de cele mai multe ori sinuos. Doar cei care nu-si uita visul sunt invingatori. Paul nu este un erou. El face parte din categoria celor care iubesc si iarta. Iarta si inving.

Purpose: To identify prognostic factors for 6-month postoperative functional outcomes in older patients with hip fractures.
Methods: This single-center prospective cohort study was conducted from January 2020 to December 2020. Patient factors and the preinjury Barthel index were collected from the patients at admission. The Barthel index was assessed again 6 months postoperatively to define functional outcomes. Minimal clinically important differences (MCIDs) between preinjury and 6-month functional outcomes were used to classify patients into satisfactory or unsatisfactory groups. The 6-month mortality rate was evaluated. Multiple logistic regression was used to analyze prognostic factors for postoperative functional outcomes.
Results: In total, 320 patients were included in the analysis. The 6-month mortality rate was 11.8%. The average age and body mass index were 75.74±10.53 years and 20.98±3.96, respectively. Of the patients, 243 were female (75.94%), 210 were diagnosed with intertrochanteric fractures (65.83%), and 54 underwent surgery within 72 h (16.88%). In total, 249 patients (77.81%) had no complications. Multivariate analysis indicated that a time to surgery of < 72 h (odds ratio, 10.51; 95% confidence interval (CI), 5.42 to 20.37; p-value <0.01) was a significant prognostic factor for a satisfactory 6-month outcome.
Conclusions: Time to surgery is a prognostic factor for a satisfactory functional outcome. Early surgery results in better functional outcomes in older patients with hip fractures.
Pre-eksistensi Putra Allah
Authors: Prayidno Iswadi
Published: February 2023

The deity of Jesus Christ, the Son of God, has been being the object of contemplation for the faithful since the beginning of Christianity. One of the reflected points is the pre-existence of the Son of God. The Church Fathers, especially around the Council of Nicaea, tussled a lot with this issue. They used philosophical terms which were quite complicated in their time. Strangely, long before that, Paul as a radical monotheist, who later became a follower of Christ, seemed to speak about the pre-existence of this Son effortlessly. This fact is interesting to be observed. Therefore, this article is intended to discuss Paul's views regarding the divinity of Jesus Christ.
“Dilahirkan, Bukan Dijadikan (‘γεννηθέντα οὐ ποιηθέντα’)”

The revelation of the Christian faith is not always apparent at first glance. This revelation is being contemplated constantly, especially when dealing with the challenges of the new era. One thing that cannot be spared from challenges is the understanding of faith in the divinity of Jesus Christ. One of the most significant periods occurred before the Council of Nicaea. The church had to face tough challenges that was coming from Arius. Therefore, how did the Fathers of the Council respond? This paper is aimed to review this theme.
The Political Economy of Authoritarian Populism in Hungary
Authors: Bugaric Bojan
Published: February 2023

With all key political institutions firmly in Orban’s hands, and with the electoral rules basically tilted to Orban’s advantage, many observers question whether Orban’s regime can be successfully challenged domestically, from within. As a result, the attention has shifted to the European Union and its role in policing the violations of EU basic values, which include democracy and the rule of law. After examining the EU’s record in protecting the rule of law and democracy in Hungary, I conclude that EU sanctions are not likely to save democracy in Hungary. In conclusion, I argue that instead of focusing too narrowly on sanctions, the Hungarian opposition should articulate a coherent (politico-economical) alternative to Orban’s authoritarian populism. Instead of focusing only on legal or economic sanctions, the EU and member states should look to alternative economic and social policies that would speak directly to the anxieties of populist voters. The good news is that this trend can be reversed— but only if European leaders, together with the Member States, articulate a coherent alternative to the failed neo-liberal economic and social policies of the last two decades. Only an economic policy that promotes growth, better jobs and wages, and social inclusion can stem the nationalist-populist tide.
Environmental Authoritarianism: A Case Study of the Bolsonaro Government (2019-2021)

The purpose of this article is to investigate the abuse of presidential and administrative powers with a view to weakening environmental protection. We argue that the concept of “environmental authoritarianism”, designating both a democratic setback and a constitutional pathology, could be applied in order to describe the phenomenon whereby the government exploits certain legal institutions in order to erode constitutional defences against environmental degradation. Our argument is supported by a case study of the last three years of the Bolsonaro government in Brazil (2019-2021), focusing on a two-pronged analysis: a typology of the legal instruments on environmental policy in Brazil (legal competences and sources of law), and a brief report of all significant acts of environmental (un)protection implemented by the Bolsonaro government during this period. By contrasting the legal instruments and the governmental abuses, we suggest some legal patterns which might provide the basis for environmental authoritarianism in Brazil. These patterns, we argue, might even be generalised, by future research in comparative constitutionalism and international environmental law, to other contexts around the world.
A Rare Cause of Headache and an Unorthodox Transfer: A Case Report
Authors: Burleson Samuel , Butler Joe , Gostigian Gabrielle , Parr Matthew , Kelly Matthew
Published: February 2023

Introduction: Emergency department (ED) crowding and hospital diversion times are increasing nationwide, with negative effects on patient safety and an association with increased mortality. Crowding in referral centers makes transfer of complex or critical patients by rural emergency physicians (EP) more complicated and difficult. We present a case requiring an unorthodox transfer method to navigate extensive hospital diversion and obtain life-saving neurosurgical care.

Case Report: We present the case of a previously healthy 21-year-old male with two hours of headache and rapid neurologic decompensation en route to and at the ED. Computed tomography revealed obstructive hydrocephalus recognized by the EP, who medically managed the increased intracranial pressure (ICP) and began the transfer process for neurosurgical evaluation and management. After refusal by six referral centers in multiple states, all of which were on diversion, the EP initiated an unorthodox transfer procedure to the institution at which he trained, ultimately transferring the patient by air. Bilateral external ventricular drains were placed in the receiving ED, and the patient ultimately underwent neurosurgical resection of an obstructive colloid cyst.

Conclusion: First, our case illustrates the difficulties faced by rural EPs when attempting to transfer critical patients when large referral centers are refusing transfers and the need for improvements in facilitating timely transfers of critically ill, time-sensitive patients. Second, EPs should be aware of colloid cysts as a rare but potentially catastrophic cause of rapid neurologic decline due to increased ICP, and the ED management thereof, which we review

An important task of designing complex computer systems is to ensure high reliability. Many authors investigate this problem and solve it in various ways. Most known methods are based on the use of natural or artificially introduced redundancy. This redundancy can be used passively and/or actively with (or without) restructuring of the computer system. This article explores new technologies for improving fault tolerance through the use of natural and artificially introduced redundancy of the applied number system. We consider a non-positional number system in residual classes and use the following properties: independence, equality, and small capacity of residues that define a non-positional code structure. This allows you to: parallelize arithmetic calculations at the level of decomposition of the remainders of numbers; implement spatial spacing of data elements with the possibility of their subsequent asynchronous independent processing; perform tabular execution of arithmetic operations of the base set and polynomial functions with single-cycle sampling of the result of a modular operation. Using specific examples, we present the calculation and comparative analysis of the reliability of computer systems. The conducted studies have shown that the use of non-positional code structures in the system of residual classes provides high reliability. In addition, with an increase in the bit grid of computing devices, the efficiency of using the system of residual classes increases. Our studies show that in order to increase reliability, it is advisable to reserve small nodes and blocks of a complex system, since the failure rate of individual elements is always less than the failure rate of the entire computer system.
