Mental health issues, needs, and challenges faced by children and adolescents during public health emergencies
Authors: Glavak Tkalić Renata , Kotrla Topić Marina
Published: June 2024

Public health emergencies, including catastrophic events such as pandemics and natural disasters, as well as the rise of diseases caused by high-threat pathogens result in specific and often critically threatening situations (WHO, 2023). This study aimed to examine the perception of educators (e.g., teachers and trainers) in Croatia regarding the mental health issues, needs, and challenges faced by children and adolescents during public health emergencies, as well as the risk and protective factors associated with mental health issues. Data was collected using two focus groups that included a total of 12 educators (e.g., teachers, sports trainers, kindergarten teachers, and so on) who work with children and adolescents. The results were analysed using thematic analyses and showed that the symptoms observed most often in children were fear, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, sleep problems, behavioural problems, and concentration problems. Educators also provided insights into the broader context in which these symptoms were evident and highlighted their personal need for additional support and education. Furthermore, they listed various protective and risk factors that, in their opinion, could influence the coping abilities of children faced with a crisis. These findings are important for the creation of programmes that aim to protect the mental health of children during and after public emergencies, as well as to train those working with children in order to help them recognise the needs of children and adolescents and find ways of providing help.

У сучасному світі смартфони відіграють важливу роль, ставши невід’ємним елементом повсякденного життя. Вони є основним засобом спілкування, доступу до інформації, розваг, а також забезпечують можливості для роботи та навчання в будь-якому місці і в будь-який час.
Окрім смартфонів, суспільство все частіше користується додатковими пристроями, такими як фітнес-трекери, смарт-годинники, ваги, медичні пристрої та інші гаджети Інтернету речей (IoT). Окрім незалежної  роботи окремо ці пристрої взаємодіють і зі смартфонами у тому числі. Ця інтеграція дозволяє користувачам контролювати своє здоров'я та фізичну активність, отримувати важливі сповіщення, керувати побутовою технікою та автоматизувати різні аспекти повсякденного життя через взаємодію з різними пристроями. Наприклад, смартфон може синхронізуватись з фітнес-трекером для відстеження кроків та серцевого ритму, або зі домашнім пристроєм для керування освітленням, опаленням чи системою безпеки. Така взаємодія розширює можливості смартфонів і сприяє утворенню екосистеми синхронізованих пристроїв.
Подібна синхронізація смартфонів та наведених пристроїв в переважній більшості випадків досягається за допомогою технології BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy), бездротової технології зв'язку, що розроблена для енергоефективного обміну даними між пристроями на короткій відстані. Ця технологія є оптимальною з точки зору споживання енергії та дозволяє передавати дані на відстань до 10 метрів з невеликою швидкістю. Оптимізована робота з точки споживання енергії є ключовим фактором у подібних інтеграціях через обмежену ємність акумуляторів, вбудованих у розумні пристрої.
У свою чергу, React Native є раціональним вибором в якості технології для розробки програмного забезпечення для смартфонів з різними операційними системами. Кросплатформний підхід, що використовується у цьому інструменті дозволяє оптимізувати розробку за рахунок можливості використовувати одну реалізацію на кількох платформах.

Published: June 2024

Bu çalışmada, Kahramanmaraş depremlerinde yaşanan kaosun Millî Eğitim Bakanlığı tarafından yönetimine ilişkin okul yöneticilerinin görüşlerinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Araştırma nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden fenomenoloji modeli ile yürütülmüştür. Araştırmanın çalışma grubunu Kahramanmaraş ilinde görev yapan ve “Kolay Ulaşılabilir Durum Örnekleme Yöntemi” ile belirlenen 20 okul yöneticisi oluşturmaktadır. Veriler, araştırmacılar tarafından geliştirilen yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme formu ile toplanmış ve betimsel analizi tekniğiyle çözümlenmiştir. Araştırmada; deprem öncesinde okul binalarının deprem yönetmeliğine uygun olarak yapıldığı, bazı okul binalarının güçlendirildiği, okul tahliye planlarının hazırlandığı ve okulda iş güvenliği konusunda gerekli tedbirlerin alındığı, deprem tatbikatlarının yapıldığı ve deprem konusunda öğretmen ve öğrencileri bilinçlendirme amaçlı eğitim seminerleri düzenlendiği ve tüm bu önlemlerin kaosun etkisini azalttığı sonucuna varılabilir. Depremlerin hemen akabinde okul binalarının hasar tespit çalışmalarına çok kısa sürede başlanması ve zaman geçirmeden hafif hasarlı okul binalarının onarımlarının yapılması, öğretmenlerin idari izinli sayılması ve ek ders ücretlerinin ödenmesi, öğretmenlere geçici barınma imkanlarının sağlanması, öğretmen ve öğrencilere psikososyal destek çalışmaları yürütülmesi, okulların açılması ve öğrencilerden devam zorunluluğunun kaldırılması, öğrenciler için yetiştirme kurslarının açılması gibi Millî Eğitim Bakanlığı uygulamalarının depremin neden olduğu kaosun yönetiminde önemli rol oynadığı söylenebilir. Deprem sonrası oluşan kaosun sonlandırılması için Millî Eğitim Bakanlığınca öğretmenlere sınırlı da olsa il dışı tayin hakkı tanınmasının, evi orta ve ağır hasarlı olan öğretmenlere barınma imkânı sunulmasının, diğer illerdeki okullarla kardeş okul uygulamasının başlatılmasının kaos sonu normale dönülmesi için önemli adımlar olduğu ileri sürülebilir. Ancak, deprem öncesinde okul binalarının güçlendirilmesinde geç kalınması, deprem sonrasında öğrencilerin sınav giriş yerlerini güncellenmesinde sorunlar yaşanması, öğrencilerin deprem travmalarını atlatabilmesi konusunda psikososyal destek çalışmalarının yetersiz kalması durumlarının kaosun etkili olarak yönetilmesini engellediği sonucuna varılabilir.
An Overview of Veganism on X: Is Veganism a Political Activism or a Dietary Style in the Turkish Case?
Authors: Şen A. Fulya
Published: June 2024

Veganism is commonly described as the attempt to avoid, as far as possible, the exploitation and consumption of animals and animal products. It is acknowledged as a collective action aimed at political transformation, not an individual quest for a pure ethical diet. Many times, veganism is misinterpreted as a diet or style of eating. It's a movement against the needless suffering and exploitation of non-human animals. As a result, veganism rejects human consumption habits that harm animals, such as those found in our clothes, food, makeup, and entertainment (Cochrane and Cojocaru, 2023a, 2023b; Linton, 2022). Hence, this study aims to explore how veganism was framed on X (formerly Twitter) and associated with political activism. It claims that veganism is beyond a personal lifestyle, a form of activism providing insight into political change. This paper, which examined the posts of the Vegan Association of Turkey and also 4 news websites, Hurriyet, Haberturk, BirGün, and Bianet, has revealed that the Vegan Association of Turkey dealt with mostly vegan activism patterns but did not refer to the elements of political activism. It also displayed that although the left-wing and alternative news media covered the activist practices of veganism, the sampling news websites mostly framed veganism within nutrition and lifestyle patterns. In particular, the mainstream news media excluded the political and activist roles of veganism from vegan representations. In conclusion, under-representing political constituents of veganism on X means that the hegemonic consumerism culture is reproduced and new perspectives on consumerism, capitalism, gender, and the environment have not been sufficiently debated in the public sphere.

Published: June 2024

Dağlık Karabağ sorunu uluslararası alanda tam anlamıyla çözülemeyen bir mesele olarak güncelliğini korumaktadır. Hem ulusal hem de uluslararası basında yer bulmaktadır. Multidisipliner yaklaşımla çalışılan bu makale Ermenistan’ın Dağlık Karabağ’a yönelik gerçekleştirdiği tüm işgallerin “The Times” Gazetesindeki yansımalarını içerik analizi yöntemiyle ele almaktadır. The Times’ın uluslararası, yüksek tiraja sahip, günlük yayımlanan bir gazete olması örneklem olarak seçilmesindeki sebepleri oluşturmaktadır. Gazetenin bölgeye uzaklığına rağmen çatışmaları ne sıklıkla, hangi kategoride haberleştirdiği, hangi kaynak ve aktörleri kullandığı vb. sorunsallarından hareketle, işgallerin 1991 ile 1993 yılları arasında gerçekleşmesinden dolayı söz konusu yıllar makalenin kapsamını oluşturmaktadır. Bu tarihlerde 12 işgal gerçekleşmiştir. Ulaşılabilen alan yazına göre belirtilen yıllarda 12 işgale ilişkin The Times’ta “Dağlık Karabağ” ile ilgili 1991’de 34, 1992’de 87, 1993’te ise 49 olmak üzere toplamda 170 haber yayımlanmıştır. Alınan uzman görüşleriyle sınırlama yöntemi geliştirilmiş, toplamda 39 haber geliştirilen 7 değişken kodlama yolu ile analiz edilmiştir.
Sonuç olarak analizi yapılan 39 haberde The Times’ın; “Ermeniler Saldırıyı Yoğunlaştırıyor, Azerbaycan Bombardımanı” gibi başlıklar atarken; “Anadolu Haber Ajansı, Milliyet Gazetesi” de dâhil 98 kaynağı ve “Süleyman Demirel, Tansu Çiller” gibi 44 aktörü haberlerinde kullandığı saptanmıştır. “Çatışma, savaş, barış” kavramlarını çok sık dile getirirken “işgal” kavramını sütunlarında yalnızca üç kez kullandığı, “katliam” kelimesini ise hiç kullanmadığı görülmüştür.
RECALLING THE BELGIAN CONGO
Authors: Dembour Marie-Bénédicte
Published: June 2024

When the author embarked on her study, her aim was to approach former colonial officers with a view to analyzing processes of domination in the ex-Belgian Congo. However, after establishing a rapport with some of these officers, the author was soon forced to revise her initial assumptions, widely held in present-day Belgium: these officers were not the "baddies" she had expected to meet. Exploring the colonial experience through the respondents' memories resulted in a far more complex picture of the colonial situation than she had anticipated, again forcing her to question her original assumptions. This resulted not only in a more differentiated perspective on Belgian colonialist rule, but is also sensitized her as regards the question of anthropological understanding and of what constitutes historical fact. These two aspects of her work are reflected in this study that offers specific material on the way Belgian colonialism is remembered and reflects on its conditions of production, thus combining ethnographic analysis with a theoretical essay.
Structural analysis of loaded cable trusses
Authors: Chesnokov A. V. , Mikhailov V. V.
Published: June 2024

Cable trusses are far superior to ordinary roof structures of buildings made of steel or reinforced concrete. They are applicable for spans up to 60 meters or more and do not need heavy-duty installation equipment due to their low weight. On the other hand, design solutions for cable structures are hampered because software packages for the finite element analysis, are not intended for study of alternative solutions. Evaluation methods for the cable truss structure include integration of the shear force distribution in auxiliary beam and solution of a set of non-linear equations. It complicates the implementation of static analysis. The development of simplified evaluation methods suitable for general-purpose mathematical software packages, is an important task to be solved. It will enhance the quality of design solutions via specialized tools for numerical simulation and optimization.

Purpose: The purpose of the work is to develop evaluation methods of cable trusses.

Methodology: The proposed technique is based on the sine-series expansion of the external load and shape function of the cable truss. The assumption of small relative displacement at the center of the truss span and constant length of links between the chords yield a set of two equations. The first one is quadratic. Its solution is given in terms of the cable truss shape alteration determined from the second equation by means of the secant method.

Research findings: The proposed technique allows to determine vertical displacements of the cable truss, the link load between the chords and axial forces under the external load uniformly distributed over left and right parts of the span. Nonlinear equations solved by the plane solution technique, requires much less computations in contrast to the general analysis of nonlinear systems.

Published: June 2024

The article studies the influence of bending and unbending of reinforcing bars on the mechanical properties of steel bars. This problem is relevant in the practice of constructing monolithic reinforced concrete structures, since reinforcing bars are often subjected to initial bending. The question arises about their further use. Based on the results obtained, a comparative analysis of the mechanical properties is presented for reinforcing bars after tensile strength testing with varying the initial bend diameter. According to this testing, it is possible to further use these reinforcing bars after single and reverse bending without reducing the strength properties of the steel.

The article analyzes the performance of low-cost air carriers in the regional context and in comparison with the activities of classical airlines. The tendency of growth of performance indicators of airline companies that have used this model during all the years since its inception is determined.
The main factors influencing the growth of the low-cost segment in the total volume of air transportation are analyzed. It is determined that the dynamic growth to 31% of the total number of air transportation in the world is due to an increase in the number of passengers as a result of efficiency measures taken by low-cost airlines aimed at increasing the passenger load factor, reducing costs and improving the organizational structure.
The tendency of development of low-cost airlines in the Ukrainian aviation market is characterized.
A comparison of the LCC and FSC models by the main features is made. The cost structure, the difference in costs of airlines using different models, and the reasons for this are described. The route models used by classic airlines and low-cost airlines are described. 
The impact of primary and secondary costs from the introduction of a new low-cost airline on the costs of other economic agents is described. The effects arising from the introduction of a new low-cost airline are determined.
The consequences of changes in the LCC and FSC models caused by the convergence process are investigated. The signs of a hybrid model that can become more attractive to a wide range of consumers, which, in turn, will contribute to the growth of passenger traffic and strengthen the airline's position in the market, are determined.

Published: June 2024

In the academic realm, a paradigm defines the overall methodology or theory that sets boundaries for research in a particular field. Thomas Kuhn developed a concept that describes the content, structure, and conditions for paradigm shifts in science. However, the lack of consensus regarding the applicability of this concept in accounting makes it a subject worthy of investigation. The aim of the article is to determine the feasibility of applying Kuhn's paradigmatic model in accounting science. The methodological basis of the research involves the application of scientific and specialized methods of cognition. Analysis and historical methods were employed to process literature sources and identify discussions regarding the use of Kuhn's paradigmatic concept. Deduction and analogy helped in determining the advantages and disadvantages of employing Kuhn's paradigm model in science. Synthesis and induction were used to draw conclusions regarding the potential use of the paradigmatic concept in accounting.
The research characterizes the essence of Kuhn's paradigmatic concept and analyzes scientific works in accounting that have utilized this concept. The advantages of its application in accounting are highlighted, including the identification of key elements of the "disciplinary matrix" in accounting science, the formulation of the structure of scientific revolutions, and the justification of the connection between science and the scientific community in terms of values and influence. It is revealed that Kuhn's concept excludes the multiparadigmality of science—a situation where the coexistence of multiple paradigms and the synergistic effect of their functioning is possible. Conclusions are formulated regarding the potential use of Kuhn's paradigmatic concept in accounting science.

The effect of combining physiotherapy with dry needling in patients with cervical spondylosis: A randomized controlled trial
Authors: Mengi Alper , Bulut Gül Tugba
Published: June 2024

BACKGROUND: There are no data on the additional contribution of dry needling (DN) for trigger points (TPs) accompanying patients with cervical spondylosis (CS). OBJECTIVE: To analyse the contribution of DN applied to concomitant active TPs in the upper trapezius muscle on the treatment outcomes of physiotherapy in CS. METHODS: In this prospective randomized controlled study, 70 patients with CS and active TPs in the upper trapezius muscle were included. The first group received physiotherapy for 5 days per week for 3 weeks. The second group received DN with the same program. All participants were evaluated before treatment (day 0) and at the end of treatment (day 21) in terms of pain, functional status, quality of life, anxiety/depression scores, and number of TPs. RESULTS: 33 patients in the first group and 32 patients in the second group completed the study. While the change over time was found significant in all variables, the change was not different between groups. The group-time interaction effect was not found to be statistically significant in any variable. Percentage changes of all variables were similar between the groups. CONCLUSION: DN treatment added to the physiotherapy did not contribute to recovery in patients with CS.

Authors: Ellouze Mourad , Belguith Lamia Hadrich
Published: June 2024

In this paper, we present an intelligent methodology for assisting decision-makers in both understanding the structure of a data warehouse model and making decisions. The support module proposed by our method comprises three operations: (i) transforming a data warehouse model into an ontology, allowing for the display of the different terminology related to a specific domain as well as the different semantic relationships between them, (ii) recommending a series of queries to the decision-maker that enables an understanding of the reasoning logic based on the ontology’s structure, (iii) enriching the different results obtained from some analysis tools through the use of advanced machine learning techniques. The originality of our proposed methodology lies in its ability to influence a decision-maker’s thinking in order to encourage him to take full advantage of the services provided by the data warehouse model. We apply our proposed methodology to an extended data warehouse model that enables the analysis of social media data related to people with personality disorders (PD). The primary goal of this model is to provide decision-makers with suitable services that allow them to make meaningful decisions for people with personality disorders around the world. This task was carried out by analyzing the activities and content of people on social media. In addition, one of the main advantages of this model is the use of various artificial intelligence (AI) and natural language processing (NLP) techniques. Our proposed methodology is implemented and the results achieved are evaluated using both quantitative and qualitative methods.

Authors: S Srividhya , V Brindha
Published: June 2024

The purpose of this research is to address the challenges faced by visually impaired individuals, particularly in handling household appliances independently. With approximately 285 million visually impaired individuals worldwide, technological solutions are crucial to enhancing their accessibility and independence. This paper introduces a Smart Assistance System designed to empower visually impaired individuals to interact with household appliances in real-time without assistance. In this study, three Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) algorithms are compared to develop the system. The evaluation metrics include accuracy, precision, recall, F1 score, and hamming loss on validation images. The performance comparison reveals that the custom architecture CNN, MobileNetv2, and YOLO models achieve F1 scores of 0.43, 0.63, and 0.24, respectively. To enhance object detection and classification, the paper suggests implementing bounding box buttons categorization using YOLOv8, which demonstrates superior performance with a 95% classification accuracy on testing images of home appliance buttons. They face similar difficult while in public and accessing public property. Expanding upon the proposed system’s capabilities, the paper introduces the concept of panic button detection and activation in a bus environment tailored for blind individuals. This system relies on various factors such as the number of people onboard, heart rate monitoring, and the detection of distress signals or SOS sounds emitted by the user. By integrating advanced sensing technologies and intelligent algorithms, this panic button detection system aims to provide prompt assistance and ensure the safety of visually impaired passengers in public transportation settings.
Exploring the application of automatic distance measurement for standing long jump based on image denoising and area detection
Authors: Wang Yunjun , Ren Zhiyuan
Published: June 2024

Traditional standing long jump measurement relies only on visual reading and manual recording, which makes the recording of data subjective and arbitrary, making it difficult to ensure the accuracy and efficiency of long jump performance. To address the shortcomings and deficiencies of traditional measurement methods and to avoid the interference of subjective bias on results, the research aims to provide a more accurate, automated, and objective measurement method. Furthermore, the research will provide new technological means for the measurement of related sports projects. In contrast to the utilization of human motion recognition technology, the study introduces image recognition technology into the domain of standing long jump testing. This technology enables the calculation of distance through the application of image processing and perspective transformation algorithms, thereby facilitating the realization of a distance measurement function. Specifically, this includes using wavelet decomposition coefficients and morphological denoising to improve the performance of wavelet threshold denoising, achieving feature extraction of image edge information, adding vibration sensors and CNN algorithms to adjust the angle of offset images, and designing a multi-step long jump distance measurement system. The combination of wavelet decomposition coefficients and morphological denoising utilized in the study demonstrated lower mean square error (50.8369) and signal-to-noise ratio (24.1126) values, with a maximum accuracy of 96.23%, which was significantly higher than the other two comparison methods. In the context of different feature information recognition, the ROC curve area of the algorithm model proposed in the study reached over 85%, with a deviation in the dataset of all below 0.5. The minimum absolute and relative errors between the measurement results of this method and the actual test results were 0.01 cm and 2%, respectively. The overall deviation of the system was 0.35, indicating high stability. The proposed long jump measurement system has the potential to enhance the efficiency of testing for the standing long jump, while also forming a complementary mode with traditional distance measurement systems. This could collectively serve the intelligent instrument market, providing technical means for the development of sports teaching projects.

Published: June 2024

Background:

Ferroptosis is extremely relevant to the progression of neurodegenerative pathologies such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Ubiquitin-specific proteases (USP) can affect the NADPH oxidase family.

Objective:

Our study aimed to elucidate the potential role and molecular basis of a certain USP19 in reducing ferroptosis and mitochondrial injury in AD cells by targeting NOX4 stability.

Methods:

The deubiquitinase USP family gene USP19, which affects the stability of NOX4 protein, was first screened. The cell model of AD was constructed after interfering with SH-SY5Y cells by Aβ1-40, and then SH-SY5Y cells were infected with lentiviral vectors to knock down USP19 and overexpress NOX4, respectively. Finally, the groups were tested for cell viability, changes in cellular mitochondrial membrane potential, lipid reactive oxygen species, intracellular iron metabolism, and NOX4, Mf1, Mf2, and Drp1 protein expression.

Results:

5 μmol/L Aβ1-40 intervened in SH-SY5Y cells for 24 h to construct a cell model of AD. Knockdown of USP19 decreased the expression of NOX4 protein, promoted the expression of mitochondrial fusion proteins Mnf1 and Mnf2, and inhibited the expression of the splitting protein Drp1. Furthermore, USP19 knockdown decreased mitochondrial membrane potential, SOD, MDA, intracellular iron content and increased GSH/GSSG ratio in SH-SY5Y cells. Our study revealed that NOX4 protein interacts with USP19 and knockdown of USP19 enhanced ubiquitination to maintain NOX4 protein stability.

Conclusions:

USP19 attenuates mitochondrial damage in SH-SY5Y cells by targeting NOX4 protein with Aβ1-40.

Authors: Sjaelland Nikolai S. , Gramkow Mathias H. , Hasselbalch Steen G. , Frederiksen Kristian Steen
Published: June 2024

Background: Portable digital health technologies (DHTs) could help evaluate non-cognitive symptoms, but evidence to support their use in patients with dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) is uncertain. Objective: 1) To describe portable or wearable DHTs used to obtain digital biomarkers in patients with DLB, 2) to assess the digital biomarkers’ ability to evaluate non-cognitive symptoms, and 3) to assess the feasibility of applying digital biomarkers in patients with DLB. Methods: We systematically searched databases MEDLINE, Embase, and Web of Science from inception through February 28, 2023. Studies assessing digital biomarkers obtained by portable or wearable DHTs and related to non-cognitive symptoms were eligible if including patients with DLB. The quality of studies was assessed using a modified check list based on the NIH Quality assessment tool for Observational Cohort and Cross-sectional Studies. A narrative synthesis of data was carried out. Results: We screened 4,295 records and included 20 studies. Seventeen different DHTs were identified for assessment of most non-cognitive symptoms related to DLB. No thorough validation of digital biomarkers for measurement of non-cognitive symptoms in DLB was reported. Studies did not report on aspects of feasibility in a systematic way. Conclusions: Knowledge about feasibility and validity of individual digital biomarkers remains extremely limited. Study heterogeneity is a barrier for establishing a broad evidence base for application of digital biomarkers in DLB. Researchers should conform to recommended standards for systematic evaluation of digital biomarkers.
Beyond Amyloid-β: Reevaluating Its Physiological Role to Find Safe Therapies Against Alzheimer’s Disease
Authors: Puzzo Daniela
Published: June 2024

This commentary critically examines the long-standing emphasis on amyloid-β (Aβ)-based therapies in Alzheimer’s disease (AD), despite numerous clinical trial failures. It highlights the urgency to reassess research methodologies and challenges the initiation of anti-Aβ trials in preclinical stages of the disease without conclusive proofs of their safety and efficacy. Instead, a comprehensive approach that considers Aβ’s physiological roles and addresses AD complex nature is suggested, encouraging the idea that clinical trial failures may result from targeting the wrong mechanism. Evidence-based scientific research is needed to advance with AD treatment, moving beyond the current conception of Aβ hypothesis.
