Authors: Silva Eulália Jéssica Medeiros , Salvador Diego Salomão Candido de Oliveira
Published: January 2023

No Brasil, o processo de espacialização de serviços bancários por todo o território é evidente, com o intento, de modo geral, da obtenção da mais-valia em todos os lugares. Para isso, diferentes estratégias de expansão da rede bancária são implementadas. No Rio Grande do Norte, houve aumento e desconcentração de agências bancárias até 2014, porém, a partir de 2015, outras maneiras de complexificação da rede urbana vêm sendo trazidas à tona, como a viabilização de postos de atendimento e de correspondentes bancários em cidades cujas dinâmicas socioeconômicas e interações espaciais não justificam a implantação e manutenção de agência bancária. Nos anos de 2016 e 2017, inúmeros assaltos foram realizados à agências e postos bancários do Rio Grande do Norte, o que fez com que o sistema bancário no território potiguar fosse reorganizado, com a diminuição do quantitativo de agências bancárias, a transformação de algumas destas em postos de atendimento bancário e a expansão substancial de correspondentes bancários. Neste trabalho é analisada a rede bancária na Região Imediata de Currais Novos, com destaque para a espacialização de bancos na região, a saber: Banco do Brasil, Banco Bradesco, Banco do Nordeste do Brasil e Caixa Econômica Federal. O processo de organização desta rede no Brasil, no Rio Grande do Norte e na região em questão é compreendido por meio dos fixos bancários implantados no espaço e dos fluxos decorrentes. Como consideração final, afirmamos ser urgente a adoção de políticas que viabilizem a maior densidade da rede bancária na região de Currais Novos, mediante a desconcentração - da cidade principal da região - dos fixos bancários mais complexos e a amplificação da carta de serviços dos demais fixos.

Authors: Tjahyadi Indra , Andayani Sri
Published: January 2023

Bawean language is identified as a hybrid language. Many languages influence the vocabulary of the Bawean language. At least, there are Madurese, Javanese, Malay, Buginese, etc. However, most of Bawean vocabulary are from Madurese. In its distribution to surroundings areas, Madurese is a language that is not easy to change its grammar. Even, it tends to influence the native local language of the people, as the Pandalungan Javanese that is used by the people in the north coast areas of East Java. There, the Grammar of Madurese influences much the Javanese, that is the native language of Javanese people. In other case, it occurs differently in Bawean language. Here, the language that most of the vocabulary comes from Madurese is influenced by the Javanese grammar. It makes the Bawean language different from the Madurese. By doing qualitative descriptive study that compares the significant grammar features of Madurese and Javanese that influence Bawean language, this study is conducted. The data are collected by using observation and interview method. Then, they are analyzed by the identity methods. The study finds that the Madurese Bawean is different from the native Madurese in terms of reduplication and affixation. Although most of the Bawean vocabulary come from Madurese, not all of the Madurese reduplication and affixation Javanese involve the Bawean ones. The Javanese also takes important part in the grammar of Bawean Madurese.

Published: January 2023

Due to the popularity of video games in various applications, including both commercial and social marketing, there is a need to assess their content in terms of player satisfaction, already at the production stage. For this purpose, the indices used in EEG tests can be used. In this publication, a formula has been created based on the player's commitment to determining which elements in the game should be improved and for which graphic emblems connected with social campaigns were more memorable and whether this was related to commitment. The survey was conducted using a 2D platform game created in Unity based on observations of 28 recipients. To evaluate the elements occurring in the game at which we obtain a higher memory for graphic characters, a corresponding pattern was created based on player involvement. The optimal Index for moving and static objects and the Index for destruction were then selected based on the feedback. Referring to the issue of graphic emblems depicting social campaigns should be placed in a place where other activities such as fighting will not be distracted, everyone will be able to reach the level where the recently placed advertisement is. This study present the developed method to determine the degree of player's engagement in particular elements in the game using the EEG and to explore the relationship between the visibility of social advertising and engagement in a 2D platform game where the player has to collect three keys and defeat the ultimate opponent.

Authors: Saito Yoshiaki , Ikeda Shoji , Endoh Tetsuo
Published: January 2023

The correlation between the magnitude of interlayer exchange coupling (J
ex) and charge-to-spin conversion efficiency (spin Hall angle: θ
SH) is investigated in a synthetic antiferromagnetic (AF) system with compensated magnetization. The magnitude of θ
SH increases linearly with increasing the magnitude of J
ex. We observe the factor of 6.5 increase of spin Hall angle (θ
SH = 45.8%) in a low resistive (ρ
xx = 41 μΩcm) synthetic AF system by increasing the magnitude of J
ex. The low resistive synthetic AF system will be a promising building block for future nonvolatile high-speed memories and logic circuits using the spin Hall effect.

Published: January 2023

This study aimed to evaluate the indoor air quality differences at 19 indoor play centers of cafés and play areas in Gyeonggi-do where were 430 m2 or larger. We examined concentrations of formaldehyde (HCHO), volatile organic compounds (VOC), particulate matter, and total airborne bacteria, and how their distributions varied with the number of visitors at the places. On weekdays, there were no statistically significant differences in mean indoor air pollutant concentrations between the cafés and play areas at 95% confidence intervals. However, significant differences were observed on weekends when the number of visitors increased. HCHO concentrations increased up to 159%, and VOC concentrations increased up to 210%. A higher increase rate of HCHO occurred at the cafés compared to the play areas since cooking operations were performed under natural ventilation. The PM10 concentration increased by approximately 33.2%, with an increase of 49.2% in the play areas and a 18.3% increase in the cafés on weekends. PM2.5 concentration particularly increased during weekends in the cafés and play areas by 113% and 63.6%, respectively. During cooking operations, the concentration of gaseous and particulate pollution increased more in the air pollutant concentration of cafés, and the overall bacterial concentration increased during weekends due to higher numbers of visitors. Therefore, indoor play centers with cooking operations require adequate air quality management to mitigate the indoor pollution.

Authors: Sahin Suzan , Menekse Sirin
Published: January 2023

Central nervous system nocardiosis is rare but has high morbidity and mortality. Immunocompromised patients who have malignancies such as lymphoma, infections such as human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and bone marrow or solid organ recipients are particularly vulnerable to infection. However, here, we present a patient who developed nocardiosis and recurrent brain abscesses despite having no immunodeficiency problems. The abscess recurred despite total abscess excision and parenteral therapy. After nocardiosis was diagnosed, intravenous treatment with imipenem and amikacin was initiated. The patient was discharged on oral doxycycline. In our immunocompetent case, the abscess recurred four times, resulting in death.

Evaluation of Blood Stream and Biliary Tract Infections Related to Percutaneous Transhepatic Cholangiography and Prophylaxis Given in Patients with Malignancy
Authors: Araz Halime , Eren Tulay , Kocagul-Celikbas Aysel , Ozdemir Nuriye
Published: January 2023

Objective: Percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography (PTC) is an invasive procedure used in patients with obstructive jaundice in the progress of some malignancies, and its most common complication is infection. We aimed to evaluate the patients who underwent PTC regarding their cultures, prophylaxis, and antibiotics used for treatment.

Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional study, patients who underwent PTC and were followed up in a medical oncology outpatient clinic between 2010-2017 were evaluated retrospectively. Patients’ data were obtained from the hospital record system (FONET), epicrisis forms, and patient progress files.

Results: A total of 93 patients were included in the study. Prophylaxis was given in 50% of the cases. Complications developed in 68% of the cases after the intervention, and the infectious disease clinic consulted all. Blood cultures were obtained from 89% of the febrile patients; however, bile cultures were obtained only from 29%. The rate of resistant Gram-negative enteric bacteria in growing microorganisms was 52% (n=13). It was determined that 65% of the initiated empirical treatments were appropriate for the growth of microorganisms.

Conclusion: The growth rate was significantly higher in blood cultures than in bile cultures. The lower growth rate in bile culture was attributed to the low number of bile cultures. There was no significant difference regarding the growth rate and drug resistance of the microorganisms. Therefore, we think giving antibiotics as treatment rather than prophylaxis is more appropriate. Taking cultures will ensure that patients receive appropriate antibiotic therapy for the causative agent.

Keywords: Antibiotic prophylaxis, bacteremia, biliary tract infections, percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography

Authors: Naz Hasan , Korkmaz Pinar , Arslanal Esra , Mistanoğlu-Ozatag Duru , Gurbuz Hande
Published: January 2023

Objective: Nosocomial infections (NIs) are major health problems with morbidity and mortality. Geriatric patients require intensive care unit (ICU) admission more frequently, and serious challenges occur during treatment. We aimed to evaluate the risk factors of NI and mortality in geriatric patients admitted to the ICU.

Materials and Methods: The study was conducted between April 2018 and April 2019 in two hospitals. We prospectively recorded the data on the forms prepared according to daily ICU visits.

Results: During the study period, 600 patients were hospitalized in the ICUs. Geriatric patients constituted 446 (74.3%) of the total number. The NI rate was 59% in adult patients and 80% in geriatric patients. The most frequent NI in geriatric patients was pneumonia (42%). Furthermore, the need for mechanical ventilation support, prolongation of hospital stay, total parenteral nutrition, and tracheostomy were statistically higher in geriatric patients with NI. The mortality rate in geriatric patients was statistically higher than in non-geriatric. We found the rates of prolonged hospitalization, NI development, malignancy, and cerebrovascular disease diagnosis significantly higher in geriatric patients than in non-geriatric patients.

Conclusion: NI and mortality rate are higher in geriatrics than in adult patients. Pneumonia is the most common type of NI in the ICU. Identification of risk factors regarding NI and mortality in geriatric patients in ICU will contribute to developing strategies for prevention.

Keywords: Nosocomial infection, geriatrics, intensive care units.

Objective: We aimed to evaluate the spread of COVID-19 among healthcare workers diagnosed with COVID-19 at the beginning of the COVID-19 epidemic and to draw attention to the importance of the correct and effective use of personal protective equipment.

Methods: This is a descriptive, cross-sectional, retrospective study. The research universe consisted of healthcare workers and administrative and technical personnel working at a university hospital who were diagnosed with COVID-19 at the beginning of the pandemic. The sample consisted of 100 healthcare workers diagnosed with COVID-19 and agreed to participate in the study. Data were collected between 10 June – 30 July 2020. The “Evaluation of the Transmission

Status of Healthcare Workers Diagnosed with COVID-19 Questionnaire” questionnaire, which included questions about demographic and disease information, COVID-19 transmission, and personal protective equipment usage parameters, was used as the data collection tool. The questionnaire was filled face to face or by telephone calls by the researchers.

Results: Of the participants, 41% stated that they had never worked in the COVID unit, 33% worked only on duty in the COVID unit, and 26% stated that they constantly worked in the COVID unit; 32% had contact with a patient diagnosed with COVID-19 in the last 14 days. Regarding the use of personal protective equipment, 51% stated that they did not have any problems, and 52% stated that they had not received any training.

Conclusion: Frontline healthcare workers can be infected during the pandemic. Inadequacies in the use of personal protective equipment, omissions, failure to carry out systematic training and practices, and neglecting the use of protective equipment in social environments increase the risk of transmission.

Published: January 2023

Objective: Our country has limited data on protective antibody levels following primary tetanus immunization. In this study, we planned to evaluate the tetanus antibody seroprevalence of healthcare workers in our hospital according to age and occupational groups.

Methods: Tetanus antibody levels were determined by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method. Antibody results were obtained through the hospital operating system, and the tetanus antibody level ≥0.5 IU/mL was considered seropositive.

Results: 77.5% of 2082 healthcare workers were seropositive. According to age groups, the highest seropositivity was between 20-29; the lowest seropositivity was found in individuals over 50 years of age and over (66.3%). We determined that tetanus antibody protection decreased with age (p=0.03). There was no difference between tetanus seropositivity according to occupational groups.

Conclusion: Antibody levels of tetanus decrease with age, and protection decreases significantly, especially over 50 years of age. It is important to apply a booster dose every ten years following the primary vaccine schedule in tetanus immunization.

Objective: We evaluated PCR negativity in oropharyngeal and nasopharyngeal secretions of COVID-19 patients at the end of hydroxychloroquine and/or favipiravir treatments.

Methods: Study inclusion criteria were being hospitalized, being older than 18 years, PCR positivity in oropharyngeal and nasopharyngeal secretions and being tested for SARS CoV-2-RNA PCR after treatment. Initially hydroxychloroquine treatment (group 1) was administered to the patients according to COVID-19 guide of Health Ministry. Favipiravir (group 2) alone or in combination with hydroxychloroquine (group 3) was administered to patients who were unresponsive to hydroxychloroquine or had severe pneumonia or were admitted to intensive care unit. Control respiratory specimens were taken no earlier than 24 hours, after the end of therapy. Repeated tests with 24–48-hour intervals were performed in patients with still positive PCR test results. The detection of SARS CoV-2-RNA was made by real-time PCR.
Results: The study group included 492 patients who received treatment. Mean duration of symptoms was similar among three groups. PCR negativity rate was 52.8% in the specimens taken 24 hours after the end of treatment. PCR negativity rates was 27.9% (200/492) in 48 hours after the end of treatment, %13.8 (123/492) in 72nd hour and %3.8 (80/492) in 96th hour. The ratios of PCR negativity for all specimen days were similar in three groups. There was no statistically significant difference between the groups for time to PCR negativity from the date of positivity and after the end of treatment. We determined that early or late treatment did not make a difference in terms PCR negativity time.
Conclusion: No difference was found in terms of the ratios of PCR negativity or time for negativity in oropharyngeal and/or nasopharyngeal specimens taken after the end of treatment in COVID-19 patients receiving hydroxychloroquine and/or favipiravir treatment.

When there is data from relevant previous studies, the data can be analyzed with related equations and adapted to the specifications of existing products. When the results of the research have been obtained, the analysis of data calculations is then adjusted to the results of the study with the existing specifications. For solar panel applications based on this research, polycrystalline types of solar panels can be used according to the voltage, current and power values in the study.Keywords: Solar Panels, Energy, Efficient
Effects of Medicinal Plants on Carbon Tetrachloride-Induced Liver Injury: A Review
Authors: Firdous Sayeed Mohammad , Fayed Marwa A. A.
Published: January 2023

The liver is the primary organ for metabolizing and eliminating foreign chemicals. When liver cells are exposed to large concentrations of dangerous substances, hepatocyte malfunction, membrane damage, and degradation may occur. Another chemical that can harm the liver is carbon tetrachloride (CCl4). CCl4 is converted into trichloromethyl radical [CCl3]- by several cytochrome P450 isoforms. [CCl3]- subsequently reacts with oxygen to generate trichloromethyl peroxyl radical [CCl3OO]- and induce lipid peroxidation in cell membranes. In this study, the mechanism by which a variety of recently identified medicinal plants display hepatoprotective activity against CCl4-induced liver injury is investigated. We find that animal models have been used in investigations of plant extracts. Herbal plants largely protect against CCl4-induced hepatotoxicity because their phytochemicals have an inhibitory nature. The antioxidant properties of phytochemicals can halt lipid oxidation and restrict the production of free radicals by inhibiting microsomal enzymes. They can also help liver cells in their fight against CCl4-induced inflammation by strengthening and fortifying them. The effectiveness of various herbs that are hepatoprotective and are thus plausible candidates for use in medicine must be confirmed. Experiments using entire plant extracts should be replaced with tests that pinpoint the active ingredients and assess the extracts’ effect on a variety of liver cell lines.

DIFFERENTIATING LOCAL RECREATIONAL POLICIES IN THE ECOSYSTEM APPROACH FRAMEWORK
Authors: Ilina Mariia
Published: January 2023

This paper presents some approaches to develop national and local policy of recreational natural resources use based on zonal recreational capacity, demographic properties and economic peculiarities of different areas, including mountains. Ecosystem approach is applied for the differentiation. Recreational natural resources management is the component of national policy of natural resources use. The recreational natural resources management is broader term than the recreational industry management, since the first one includes protection and restoration of the resources. The multiplicative economic effect and joint use of recreational resources with other users are key features of the industry. Significant discrepancy between the scope of available recreational resources and efficiency of their use are inherent for all Ukraine’s regions.
The multilevel algorithm of the recreational resources and industry classification of areas is developed. The algorithm concludes with several policy models of the recreational natural resources use and management taking into account types of settlements (urban, rural, and intermediate), proximity of settlements to urban centres (urbanized and peripheral), recreational capacity of areas (high, medium, and low), and economic efficiency of the local recreational industry (efficient, moderately efficient, and inefficient). Accordingly, the three types of communities’ development strategy have been identified like the recreational centre, dominant recreational industry, and recreations for locals. The novelty of this research consists in representation of approaches depicting the structure and assessing the capacity of local recreational recourses and the industry. Consequently, the multilevel algorithm classifying areas by recreational capacities and capabilities assist to define models of the local policies.
FORMATION OF THE STRUCTURE OF PAYMENTS FOR THE USE OF THE FOREST ECOSYSTEM SERVICES
Authors: Suhina Olena
Published: January 2023

The formed structure of payments for the use of resources and functions of forest ecosystems is presented in the form of a matrix, which was the purpose of the scientific article. The practical experience of implementing ecosystem payments in the field of forest use abroad was evaluated. It is well-founded that many countries have already implemented such payments, and in particular, in Costa Rica, these financial instruments have been operating effectively for 30 years. A mechanism was developed and a description of the process of forming the matrix of ecosystem payments and the algorithm of its creation was carried out.
The structure of payments for the use of resources and functions of forest ecosystems has been developed in the form of a matrix, which is the most significant result and scientific novelty of this research. The "Matrix of payments for the use of resources and functions of forest ecosystems" lists various services or functions of forest ecosystems: regulation of the water regime; stabilization of the composition of the atmosphere, waste assimilation; significant decrease in wind speed, absorption of noise by the forest; provision of recreational services by forest ecosystems and others. The matrix highlights various conditions under which payments are differentiated: depending on the type of documentation, on the scale or size of the forest area, on the level of management or type of ownership; as well as the obligation of ecosystem payments, their regularity, or voluntariness, or their combination.
A structure of ecosystem payments has been developed, which includes: ecological payments for regulating the water regime, regulating the climate regime, regulating the intensity of snowmelt and the water level in rivers; for stabilization of the composition of the atmosphere, assimilation of waste, improvement of the environment with the help of the release of phytoncides for bioremediation by plants; for a significant decrease in wind speed, for keeping under the tent the crowns of fauna and flora, absorbing noise by the forest; for the provision of recreational services by forest ecosystems. Ecosystem payments for compensation of economic losses caused to forest ecosystems are separately allocated.
This scientific work was carried out on the basis of many years of research, analysis of domestic and foreign legislative and regulatory documents, economic literature, constructive consultations of well-known scientists in the field of environmental economics, and own conclusions.

Published: January 2023

Issues related to the study of the theoretical provisions and conceptual foundations of the formation of the education development paradigm in accordance with modern realities are considered – an important factor in achieving social security in the conditions of the transformational processes taking place in Ukraine. It is emphasized that the deep socio-economic transformations of society, the development of the economy in market conditions, changes in the labour market, the growth of the educational services sector – all this requires qualitative changes in the theoretical, methodological and methodological approaches to ensuring the safety situation in the country. Attention is focused on the need to achieve social safety, taking into account the structure of employment, unemployment, in particular, among specialists with higher education, cooperation between teachers, local authorities, businessmen, social or public sector. It is noted that social safety should contribute to the achievement of appropriate conditions for the development of the physical, intellectual, spiritual potential of citizens, the improvement of their living and working conditions. Social safety, in turn, needs close relationships between its components, the development and implementation of a system of indicators and criteria for its results, and the formation of a new model for the development of education. It is noted that education plays an important role in achieving sustainable socio-economic development and the safety situation. It is emphasized that Ukraine is characterized by high rates of involvement of the population in educational activities. The issues of strengthening the imbalance between the demand and supply of labour in the labour market are considered, an important factor in the successful solution of which is the formation of a paradigm of educational development by expanding the availability of educational services, the rapid response of the education system to interdependent problems of the labour market and educational services. The problems of socio-economic, innovative-technological, environmental and public education of pupils and students in the context of transformational transformations, as well as the orientation of the educational process towards the formation of the values of freedom and justice in young people and the younger generation, which are the basis of their life position, the development of their own life values, are studied. Theoretical and methodological approaches to further improvement of the financial support for the development of education, an important factor in social safety, are proposed.
