Purpose. To evaluate the effect of treatment with botulinum toxin type A on neurocognitive functions in children with strabismus.

Material and methods. This study included 6 patients aged 4.5 to 7.7 years with various forms of strabismus before and after chemodenervation, observed for 6 months at V.F. VoynoYasenetsky Scientific and Practical Center of Specialized Medical Care for Children. All children underwent standard ophthalmological screening before and after chemodenervation. Intelligence was studied using the WPPSI-IV scale.

Results. Based on the results obtained, we did not notice a decrease in the level of intelligence; we found an increase in the level of intelligence in 2 children (33.3%) by 1 point. In 3 children (50%) the level of intelligence did not change after chemodenervation. It was also found that 3 children (50%) had a high average IQ and 3 children (50%) had an average IQ.

Conclusion. Results of this study demonstrate positive impact of chemodenervation on the cognitive functions of children with strabismus, observed by an ophthalmologist. Testing with the WPPSI-IV scale opens new horizons for identifying cognitive impairments in children. This example was used to demonstrate safety assessment of chemodenervation on neurocognitive functions in children. This technique allows if deviations are detected to provide timely correction of this condition, and helps reduce the risk of patient disability.

Background Problems: Sports exercise offers numerous health benefits but is also linked to sports injuries. According to a large body of research, researchers have identified age, gender, injury history, and level of competition as consistent risk factors for injury. Research Objectives: This study aims to analyse the injury prevalence of athletes in some sports and compare the epidemiological characteristics related to injury risk factors between athletes who experienced injuries and those who did not. Methods: This study employed a quantitative approach with a retrospective cross-sectional design. An online questionnaire collected data from a sample of  172 athletes and sports activists in football, cycling, and running. We conducted descriptive and comparative analyses using the SPSS 29 version. Findings and Results: 135 of the 172 respondents experience injuries, with the highest prevalence in football (42.2%), running (36.3%), and cycling (21.5%). Most athletes had recurrent injuries (36.3%). The Mann-Whitney test results showed no significant differences in mean age, weekly training frequency, and training duration between athletes who had injuries and those who did not. Conclusion: This study provides important insights into the prevalence and characteristics of injuries among athletes. The results of this study, which compare injured and non-injured athletes, can help develop better injury prevention and management strategies. We recommend increased awareness of injury conditions among athletes, coaches, and medical professionals to ensure a safe return to sport.

В статье рассмотрены виды апартаментов в Российской Федерации и за рубежом. По итогам анализа современных тенденций развития рынка апартаментов на территории РФ обращено внимание на то, что сегодня можно выделить два основных вида апартаментов: сервисные и несервисные. Для всестороннего рассмотрения проблематики авторы обратились к зарубежному законодательству. Изучен процесс развития рынка апартаментов в США, Великобритании и Германии. Исследование показало, что отечественное законодательство об апартаментах обладает общими чертами исключительно с немецким. Авторами сделан акцент на том, что законодательство США и Великобритании не выделяет апартаменты как самостоятельный вид жилых помещений, поскольку апартаментами являются объекты недвижимости, обладающие более высоким классом комфорта по отношению к обычным объектам недвижимости. В заключение сформулирован вывод о том, что дифференциация апартаментов должна быть законодательно закреплена. Это позволит не только защитить права собственников, но и создать благоприятные условия для развития малого предпринимательства, ориентированного на арендный бизнес.

The article examines types of apartments both in the Russian Federation and abroad. Based on the results of the analysis of the current trends in the development of apartment market in Russia particular attention is drawn to the fact that nowadays one may define two main types of apartments: serviced and non-serviced ones. For comprehensive research of the matter under study the authors turn to foreign legislation with the process of the development of apartments market in the USA, Great Britain and Germany being taken for examination. The analysis conducted demonstrates that the domestic apartments related legislation has only common features with the German law. The authors emphasize that the related legislation in the USA and GB does not distinguish apartments as a separate type of living quarters since apartments are considered to be real estate objects with a higher comfort class in relation to ordinary real estate objects. Finally the article concludes that differentiation of apartments needs to be legally enshrined. This move will not only protect owners rights but will also provide favorable conditions for the development of mall business focused on rental entrepreneurship.

Propose the possible reason of resistance, establish models of conductors, semiconductors, and insulators, and explain the reason why resistance is proportional to temperature. By utilizing models of resistance, conductors, and the research content of soft ionization mass spectrometry, the microscopic mechanism of superconductivity is proposed. Studying the movement of charges under weak electric fields in different states (phase transitions) such as gas, liquid, and solid is helpful for understanding experimental phenomena such as ion sources, mass spectrometers, electrophoresis, resistance, conductors, semiconductors, and superconductivity.
Proximity Learning-Enabled Ligand Prediction for Ni-Catalyzed Atroposelective Suzuki-Miyaura Cross-Coupling: Leveraging Pd Catalysis Knowledge for Ni Discovery
Authors: Xu Xin-Yuan , Liu Li-Gao , Xu Li-Cheng , Zhang Shuo-Qing , Hong Xin
Published: November 2024

The rational design of novel molecular catalysts often confronts challenges due to complex structure-performance relationships. Emerging data-driven approaches provide revolutionary solutions, yet the application of machine learning to new catalyst development inevitably faces a low-data regime, with limited effective structure-performance modeling available. In this study, we present a proximity learning strategy to facilitate knowledge transfer from well-documented Pd catalysis to novel, underexplored Ni systems. By synergistically modeling extensive palladium catalysis data with limited nickel/SadPhos data, our approach accurately predicted novel SadPhos ligands, enabling the first atroposelective nickel-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction. The synthetic utility of the machine learning-predicted ligand was further demonstrated in the broad synthetic scope, gram-scale synthesis, and precise control of dual axial chiralities in ternaphthalene through the sequential coupling under Ni and Pd catalysis. Additionally, density functional theory calculations were employed to reveal the reaction mechanism and stereochemical model of this new catalytic system, validating the proposed mechanistic connection between Ni and Pd. This work demonstrates how machine learning models can effectively leverage mechanistic connectivity, applying extensive structure-performance relationship data from the literature to predict new catalysts, providing a novel strategy for the rational design of molecular catalysts from a few-shot learning perspective.

A comprehensive study on the physicochemical properties of gem-fluorinated O-heterocyclic substituents is reported. Systematic additive effects of introducing O- and gem-CF2 group introduction on acidic properties (pKa) of the corresponding carboxylic acids / protonated primary amines was demonstrated. The impact of the O/CF2 moieties on lipophilicity (LogP) were found to be complex; significant mutual influence of the corresponding polar moieties governed the compound’s overall properties in this case. Biological evaluation of MAPK kinase inhibitors incorporating the title substituents demonstrated their utility as promising fragments for bioisosteric replacements in drug discovery campaigns.

We introduce a new approach to defect engineering in Zr-based metal-organic frameworks (Zr-MOFs), aiming to reduce Zr site valency while preserving high node connectivity. Using a rapid heat treatment (RHT) in humid air, O-vacancies were created in DUT-67 through cluster dehydration. Unlike conventional defect engineering, aimed at creating missing-linker defects, this method breaks intra-cluster Zr-μ3O-Zr bonds, generating coordinatively unsaturated Zr (Zrcus) sites. Pair-distribution functon(PDF) analysis, X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), and density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal that the O-vacancies lead to symmetry breaking, irreversible node distortions, and framework amorphization. This treatment converts 50% of metal sites to Zrcus sites, nearly doubling the catalytic activity of DUT-67 in glyoxal conversion to glycolic acid. DFT modeling and in situ PDF analysis highlight the dynamic behavior of Zr clusters under reaction conditions, suggesting a new avenue for defect engineering in Zr-MOFs to enhance catalytic performance.

Physical properties of beeswax-oleic acid mixture nanoemulsions as affected by
lipid ratio and concentration of emulsifier
Authors: Novita M. , Suyatma N.E. , Sugiyono  , Yuliani S.
Published: November 2024

Lipid nanoemulsion is an effective system for improving or extending the functional
performance of a composite coating or film since the small particle size causes the lipids
to be evenly dispersed into the matrix. This study aimed to examine the effect of the ratio
of BW: OA and the concentration of Tween 80 on the physical characteristics of the
resulting lipid nanoemulsion. Lipid mixture nanoemulsion was prepared from beeswax
(BW) and oleic acid (OA) in various ratios, of 100:0, 75:25, 50:50, and 25:75. Tween 80
as a surfactant was added at concentrations of 2.5%, 5.0%, 7.5%, and 10%. The
characteristics of the nanoemulsion were determined by measuring the viscosity, particle
size, polydispersity index (PDI), zeta-potential, and stability of the nanoemulsion. Lipid
ratio BW:OA and surfactant concentration greatly affected the viscosity, particle size,
PDI, zeta-potential, and stability of nanoemulsions. At a higher BW amount than oleic
acid, increasing the concentration of Tween 80 did not affect the nanoemulsion viscosity,
but decreased the particle size, PDI value, and zeta-potential value. On the other hand, in
nanoemulsions with an OA ratio greater than BW, an increase in Tween 80 increased the
viscosity, particle size, and PDI value. Nanoemulsions with small particle sizes did not
undergo separation when tested by the Freeze-Thaw method. These results showed that
the particle size and PDI values determined the stability of the nanoemulsion. From this
study, it was found that formulation largely determined the characteristics of
nanoemulsions.

Objective: To explore the value of bundled nursing interventions based on empowerment theory in the care of patients with indwelling urinary catheters. Methods: Forty-two patients with indwelling urinary catheters, admitted from June 2022 to June 2023, were sampled and randomly divided using a random number table. Group A received bundled nursing care based on empowerment theory, while Group B received standard care. The differences in catheterization duration, unplanned extubation rate, emotional scores, quality of life scores, and adverse events were compared. Results: Group A had a shorter catheterization duration and a lower rate of unplanned extubation than Group B, with P < 0.05. Anxiety (SAS) and depression (SDS) scores were lower in Group A than in Group B, with P < 0.05, and the quality of life (SF-36) scores were higher in Group A than in Group B, with P < 0.05. The adverse event rate for Group A was also lower than that for Group B, with P < 0.05. Conclusion: Patients with indwelling urinary catheters who received bundled nursing care based on empowerment theory experienced improved emotional stability, optimized quality of life, fewer unplanned extubation events, and the intervention was highly effective and feasible.

Günümüzde artan enerji tüketimi ve yeni yerleşim ya da sanayi bölgelerinin kurulması ile beraber yeni enerji hatlarına ve izolatörlere olan ihtiyacı da arttırmaktadır. İzolatör çeşitlerinden biri olan porselen izolatörler hala alanında en çok tercih edilen izolatör tipi olarak kabul edilmektedir. İzolatörlerin yüzeylerinde izolatör bünyesini korumak, ürün mukavemetini arttırmak ve gerekli elektriksel özellikleri sağlamak için sır tabakası bulunmaktadır. Porselen izolatör sırlarında kuvars, feldspat, kil, kaolen, kalsit, dolomit ve renklendirici oksit ya da pigment kullanılmaktadır. Porselen izolatör üretimindeki artış dolayısıyla sır tüketimini de arttırmaktadır. Artan maliyetler ve kaynakların tükenmesi sektörü alternatif ham madde kaynakları arayışına yöneltmiştir. Ayrıca miktarsal olarak hızla artan atık miktarı dünyamızın geleceği için tehdit oluşturmaktadır ve çevre kirliliğinin başlıca nedenlerindendir. Yapılan bu çalışmada yüksek gerilim porselen izolatörlerinde kullanılan sır reçetesinde yer alan kalsit ve dolomit yerine mermer atığı kullanılarak yeni sır reçeteleri oluşturulmuştur. Oluşturulan reçetelerin uygulandığı porselen izolatör bünyelerin fiziksel ve optik özellikleri incelenmiştir. Ayrıca sır reçetelerinin reolojik özellikleri, ısıl davranışları ve faz analizleri incelenmiştir. Sonuçlara göre mermer atık tozun kullanımı ile standart sıra benzer teknik özellikler elde edilmiş, yaklaşık %7 oranında mermer atığının izolatör sırlarında kullanılabileceği belirlemiştir. Mermer atık tozlarının yüksek gerilim porselen izolatör sırlarında değerlendirilmesi; çevresel, mekanik, kimyasal ve ekonomik olarak fayda sağlayacaktır.

При выполнении ремонта подземного нефтепровода с ненормативной кривизной оси методом изменения положения и снятии грунтового давления на ремонтном участке в некоторых случаях возможна потеря продольной устойчивости трубопровода с искривлением оси и образованием волны изгиба. При возникновении волны изгиба трубопровода выполнить ремонт методом изменения положения невозможно. Потеря продольной устойчивости связана с действующим в сечении трубопровода эквивалентным сжимающим осевым усилием и снижением поперечной нагрузки при снятии поперечной нагрузки от грунта засыпки на ремонтном участке. Приведено решение задачи определения условий потери продольной устойчивости ремонтного участка магистрального нефтепровода с ненормативной кривизной оси при его вскрытии для выполнения ремонта методом изменения положения, а также результаты моделирования перемещений оси трубопровода в волне изгиба после потери устойчивости. Рассматривается контактная задача деформирования трубопровода на абсолютно жестком выпуклом основании под действием осевого усилия, поперечной погонной нагрузки от веса трубопровода с продуктом с учетом влияния защемления трубопровода на примыкающих участках.

In some cases, when repairing an underground oil pipeline with non-standard axis curvature by the repositioning method and relieving ground pressure on the repair section, the loss of longitudinal stability of the pipeline with bending of the axis and occurrence of a bending wave. When a bending wave of the pipeline occurs, it is impossible to carry out repairs by changing its position. The loss of longitudinal stability is associated with the equivalent compressive axial force acting in the pipeline cross-section and reduction in the transverse load at removal of transverse load from the backfill soil. The solution to the problem of determining the conditions for the loss of longitudinal stability on the repair section of a main oil pipeline with a non-standard axis curvature when it is opened for repair by the repositioning method is given, as well as the results of modeling the pipeline axis displacement in a bending wave after the loss of stability. The contact problem of pipeline deformation on a completely rigid convex base under the action of axial force, transverse linear load from the pipeline weight with the product, taking into account the effect of pipeline pinch on the adjacent sections is considered.

ALGORITHMIC MANAGEMENT IN THE FOOD DELIVERY GIG ECONOMY: MECHANISMS OF CONTROL AND WORKER AUTONOMY
Authors: Sigroha Anju , Kapoor Priya
Published: November 2024

The gig economy is a rapidly evolving segment of the global economy, attracting a major segment of the working population towards a new arrangement of work, including the food-delivery sector. When gig work is executed through a digitalized platform and work is controlled through app-based algorithms, it forms the basis of the platform economy. Automation and changing workforce demographics have paved way for workers to fulfil their desire for autonomy and flexibility. Such autonomy is however strictly monitored by algorithms which control workers activity through a rigorous mechanism of instructions, ratings and reviews that impacts the workers' autonomy, job satisfaction, and labour rights. This paper delves into the intricate relationship between algorithmic management and the illusion of independent work in the context of food delivery services. It explores the mechanisms through which algorithmic systems influence worker behaviour, impact worker autonomy, and give rise to the perceived illusion of independent work. The study highlights how these workers often perceive their roles as being autonomous and independent due to the flexibility and freedom associated with platform work and how this perception is shaped and manipulated by the algorithms that govern their work activities.
INTEGRATION OF STORYTELLING AND ECOLOGICAL AWARENESS IN RUSKIN BOND’S SHORT STORIES
Authors: Karunya R. Margaret
Published: November 2024

Literature has always been the testimony of human-nature relationships. Without nature, human existence is inconceivable. Owing to the emergence of Industrial Revolution and modern technology, the harmonious relationship between human and nature has been deformed. Man has started to exploit nature. Humankind is currently dealing with a serious environmental crisis on Earth. Ruskin Bond has remained a true love of nature throughout his life. His stories examine and observe the symbiotic relationship between nature and humans. This paper aims to investigate the ecological consciousness of Ruskin Bond's short stories like the interdependent relationship between nature and human, accountability of human towards the environment.
