Factors Associated with Breastfeeding Duration and Satisfaction after Gestational Diabetes among Women Living in Northwest Ohio
Authors: Knippen Kerri Lynn , Walkup Natalie , Burmeister Cameron , Dake Joseph , Bishop Kent
Published: September 2022

Background: Given the potential for type 2 diabetes and the protective benefits of breastfeeding after gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), there is a need to promote and support breastfeeding; however, delayed lactogenesis and postpartum experiences may challenge breastfeeding success. We aimed to describe factors that influence breastfeeding duration and satisfaction after GDM.Methods: A cross-sectional survey, informed by an elicitation phase and subject matter expert review, was conducted to evaluate factors associated with breastfeeding satisfaction and duration after GDM. The study included women (n = 50) from Northwest Ohio who delivered a living child from a singleton pregnancy at greater than or equal to 34 weeks gestation, who intended to breastfeed after GDM. Spearman correlation and Mann-Whitney U test were calculated to evaluate factors associated with breastfeeding duration and satisfaction.Results: Women described a lack of breastfeeding support, and there appeared to be a lack of awareness on the benefits of breastfeeding after GDM. Attitudes were associated with breastfeeding duration and satisfaction. Negative experiences in the child’s first week of life were associated with shorter duration and lower level of satisfaction. Delayed lactogenesis, barriers after delivery, and negative normative influences were significantly associated with a lower level of breastfeeding satisfaction.Conclusion: More work is needed to deliver breastfeeding education and support after GDM. Interventions tailored for GDM are recommended to promote positive breastfeeding beliefs and realistic breastfeeding expectations. Ongoing support to address early experiences and barriers after GDM is recommended. Further work should examine these factors in a larger, more diverse sample.

Authors: Furman Lydia , Arendt Andrea , Everett Ryan , Haviland Breanne , Monsour Michael , Oza-Frank Reena
Published: September 2022

Background: Ohio First Steps for Healthy Babies (First Steps) is a free, voluntary statewide designation program coadministered by the Ohio Department of Health and the Ohio Hospital Association that promotes breastfeeding-supportive maternity practices aligned with the Baby-Friendly Hospital Initiative (BFHI).Materials and Methods: We examined Ohio birthing hospitals’ participation in First Steps, and changes in breastfeed-ing rates at hospital discharge, over the first 12 quarters of the program (July 15, 2015, to July 14, 2018) for all 110 licensed Ohio birthing hospitals. The 81 (73.6%) that achieved at least 1 step over the study period (designated as First Steps hospitals) were compared to the 29 non-First Steps hospitals, and the 17 that began participation at First Steps startup (July 15, 2015) were identified for additional analysis. Changes in breastfeeding rates were examined using a mixed effects multivariate regression model.Results: Breastfeeding increased significantly over the program period from 73.8% to 76.7% (mean 0.19% per quarter, p = .0002), but without a significant difference in breastfeeding rates between First Steps and non-First Steps hospitals. However, in a pre- and post-program analysis for the 17 hospitals that began participation at First Steps startup (excluding an additional 6 hospitals with BFHI designation), number of quarters in the program, number of steps completed, and number of births in 2015 were significantly associated with breastfeeding rates. Hospitals that completed at least 2 steps every 5 quarters in the First Steps program increased breastfeeding when compared to those not participating in the program.Conclusion: These encouraging results provide a formal evaluation of a best practices BFHI-modelled statewide program.

Opioid Dispensing Practices in the Acute Care Setting: A Retrospective Study
Authors: Moussa Mohamad , Vemuru Lekha , Dohar Robert , Lubarsky Daniel , Khuder Sadik A.
Published: September 2022

Background: Ohio remains one of the most afflicted states nationally with 46.3 per 100 000 deaths due to drug overdose. Opioids are commonly administered in emergency departments for the management of pain. Given the high volume of patients presenting with pain, emergency clinicians must be cognizant of responsible opioid dispensing practices. Ohio established guidelines in April 2012 to provide a general approach for responsible opioid prescribing practices in the emergency setting. The purpose of this study assesses clinician opioid dispensing before and after the implementation of the Ohio Opioid Prescribing Guidelines.
Methods: The study design used retrospective data analysis of opioid medications ordered by emergency clinicians to be administered in the emergency room between January 1, 2007, to December 31, 2017, at the University of Toledo Medical Center. A segmented regression analysis with an interrupted time series was used to determine impact.
Results: All opioid medication usage showed a significant decrease after guideline implementation except for morphine and fentanyl which showed statistically significant increases in administration over time (P < 0.05).
Conclusion: There was a significant decrease in the use of opioids since the implementation of the Ohio Opioid Prescribing Guidelines, yet morphine and fentanyl use has generally increased across all age groups. Age demographics frequently receiving opioids in the emergency room have seemed to shift over time as well as specific opioid drugs dispensed for the management of pain in certain age groups. Further study is needed to evaluate the use of opioids prescribed by emergency physicians after discharge from the emergency department.
Detecting Environmental Contamination of MRSA in Ambulances: A Novel and Efficient Sampling Methodology
Authors: Orellana Robert C. , Hoet Armando E. , Van Balen Joany C. , Lu Bo , Kelley Christina , Stevenson Kurt B.
Published: September 2022

Background: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) can be found in emergency medical services (EMS) ambulances. This poses an occupational risk and patient safety hazard. Screening for environmental contamination is often not performed due to limited resources and logistical challenges. This study’s objective was to compare traditional screening of individual surfaces versus “pooled sampling” to efficiently identify contamination.

Methods: A cross-sectional study, conducted among 145 Ohio EMS ambulances from 84 agencies, tested a novel pooled sampling methodology to detect MRSA contaminated ambulances. For ambulances screened using pooled sampling, 3 samples were collected within each ambulance. Pool One included cabinets, doorways, and ceiling bar. Pool Two included cot, seats, and backboard. Pool Three included steering wheel, kits, and clipboard. For ambulances screened with the traditional detection technique, each of the 9 aforementioned surfaces were sampled individually. Descriptive statistics and unadjusted and adjusted odds ratios (OR) were calculated to compare the 2 methods.

Results: Forty-seven of 145 ambulances (32.4%) had at least 1 of the 9 locations contaminated with MRSA. When comparing the 2 screening methodologies, no significant difference was observed regarding the overall detection of MRSA contaminated ambulances (24/60 [40%] versus 23/85 [27.6%], P value: 0.1000). This indicates that pooled sampling appears as an efficient method for identification of MRSA contaminated ambulances.

Conclusion: One-third of Ohio ambulances had MRSA contamination in this study. Therefore, an efficient methodology to identify contaminated ambulances with hazardous pathogens is incredibly valuable. Pooling can help save resources and simplify sampling logistics, all which could positively impact infection control practices in emergency medical services.
Developing Continuing Education for Ohio’s Local Boards of Health
Authors: Kingsbury Diana M. , Stefanak Matthew , Slenkovich Ken
Published: September 2022

Background: Public health functions at the county level and city level through the work of local health departments (LHDs). Local boards of health (LBoHs) work closely with LHDs as an administrative oversight body. In 2013, legislation was passed in the state of Ohio pertaining to the accreditation of LHDs, which included a provision requiring that Ohio’s LBoH members engage in 2 hours of continuing education (CE) per year. To assist LBoHs in fulfilling these requirements, a partnership was developed between the Ohio Association of Boards of Health (OABH) and the Kent State University College of Public Health (KSU-CPH) to deliver CE content.

Methods: The process for developing the CE modules encompasses 3 steps: (1) needs assessment, (2) module development and delivery, and (3) evaluation. Feedback was solicited from Ohio’s LBoH members to determine topics of interest for CE modules. Taking this feedback, a curated set of 8 modules will be developed. Module content will be derived from graduate courses within KSU-CPH as well as from subject matter experts. The modules will be delivered online to LBoH members during their regularly scheduled meetings.

Results: This program proposes to fulfill state requirements that LBoH members regularly engage in CE. Partner-ing with KSU-CPH allows for the use of academic content in these trainings.

Conclusion: An adequately trained public health workforce is essential for a well-functioning public health system, which includes governing entities like LBoHs. There is limited understanding of how workforce development can be targeted specifically to LBoHs. This CE program contributes to current efforts to promote workforce development within the field of public health.

Published: September 2022

Bu araştırmanın amacı, Covid-19 Pandemi sürecinde Türkiye’de uygulanan çevrimiçi eğitimi öğretmen perspektifinden analiz etmektir. Betimsel tarama modeli niteliğinde araştırma, toplam 734 öğretmen üzerinde yürütülmüştür. Araştırma anketle toplanan verilerin analizlere dayalı ulaşılan sonuçlar şunlardır: Araştırmaya katılan öğretmenlerin çoğuna göre Covid-19 Pandemi süreci, genel anlamda eğitimde kayıp dönemdir. Katılımcı öğretmenlerin yarısına göre, pandemi sürecinde uygulanan çevrimiçi eğitimin etkisiz kalması, bu süreçteki olağanüstü koşullara bağlıdır. Öğretmenlere göre, çevrimiçi eğitim psikomotor ve sosyal öğrenmelerde etkisiz olup; duyuşsal ve bilişsel öğrenmelerde kısmen etkilidir. Öğretmenlere göre, pandemi sürecinde çevrimiçi eğitimin etkisiz kalmasında, öğrencilerin kendi kendine öğrenme, özkontrol ve irade özelliklerine yeterince sahip olmamaları önemli etkenlerdir. Aynı konuda öğretmenlerin de çevrimiçi pedagojisi ile bilişsel becerilere yeterince sahip olmamaları da diğer etkenlerdir. Öğretmenlere göre, pandemi sürecindeki çevrimiçi eğitimin etkisiz kalmasının en önemli nedeni, internete erişim sorunlarıdır. Bunu, sırayla mevcut öğretim programlarının uzaktan eğitime uygun olmaması, ailenin buna hazır olmaması ve EBA sistemindeki yetersizlikler izlemiştir. Araştırmada, bütün bunların sonunda Türkiye’nin gerek olağanüstü koşullar ve gerekse Bilgi Çağı’na uyumu noktasında, çevrimiçi eğitim gibi sanal ve dijital eğitim ekosistemleri için henüz tam olarak hazır olmadığı değerlendirilmiştir.
Optimization of Backpropagation Using Harmony Search for Gold Price Forecasting
Authors: Kurniawati Yuni , Muhajir Muhammad
Published: September 2022

Gold is a precious metal often used for investment, due to its cash-in ease and yearly value increase. This indicates that price forecasting is used to determine the prospect of future gold prices. Strong gold price forecasting is highly desired by investors to make decisions. That is why technical indicators are very important used for forecasting. By using technical indicators the information obtained can be more informative than using pure gold prices. One of the commonly used methods is Backpropagation (BP). BP has been shown to have good performance in dealing with nonlinear problems. However, due to the random determination of the parameters of neurons in the hidden layer BP requires a number of neurons in the hidden layer to get optimal results. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the optimization of Backpropagation (BP) through the Harmony Search (HS) algorithm by evaluating the use of relevant technical indicators for forecasting gold prices. In the HS-BP model, this method is used to determine input variables and neurons in the hidden layer. HS with the principle of musicians with the aim of finding the best harmony. This technique is used based on the results of the fitness function. In this research, the fitness function used is Mean Square Error (MSE). HS aims to optimize BP in such a way that the forecasting system provides the lowest MSE and improves the forecasting performance of gold prices. Based on this research, the input variables used are Moving Average, Relative Strength Index, and Bollinger Bands. Next, the selected variables and neurons are applied to the BP algorithm. Where the implementation uses gold closing price data for January 2020-2021. The results showed that the proposed method has better results in forecasting accuracy and convergence error. HS-BP provides a better level of gold price forecasting than the regular BP model.

Authors: Aljuhani Wedad , Klakattawi Hadeel S. , Baharith Lamya A.
Published: September 2022

In this paper, a new five-parameter model called alpha power exponentiated new Weibull-Pareto distribution is introduced based on a new developing technique. We derived some properties relating to the proposed distribution, including moments, moment generating function, quantile function, mean residual life and mean waiting time, and order statistics of the new model. The model parameters are estimated using the maximum likelihood method. Some simulation studies are performed to investigate the effectiveness of the estimates. Finally, we used three real-life data sets to show the flexibility of the introduced distribution.
Rapid maxillary expansion-A review
Authors: Baxi Shalabh , Vadher Virendra , Tekade Suruchi Satyajit , Bhatiya Virag , Navlani Madhur
Published: September 2022

Maxillary expansion treatments have been used for more than a century to correct maxillary transverse deficiency. Three expansion treatment modalities are used today: rapid maxillary expansion (RME), slow maxillary expansion (SME) and surgically assisted maxillary expansion. Since each treatment modality has advantages and disadvantages, controversy regarding the use of each exists. Rapid Maxillary expansion or palatal expansion as it is sometimes called, occupies unique niche in dentofacial therapy. Rapid Maxillary expansion is a skeletal type of expansion that involves the separation of the mid-palatal suture and movement of the maxillary shelves away from each other.
“I Have the Courage to Say Loudly that ... Only My Teaching Can Bring the World of Islam Closer to the Soviet Government” (Archival Investigation Case of Musa Bigiev, 1923—1924)
Authors: Bekkin Renat
Published: September 2022

The article is based on the materials of the archival investigative case of the famous Muslim theologian Musa Jarullah Bigiev (1871—1949). The formal reason for Bigiev’s arrest in November 1923 was his intention to go to the World Muslim Congress in Calcutta without consent of the People’s Commissariat of Foreign Affairs and the State Political Directorate (GPU), as well as handing over of his works containing criticism of the Soviet government for publication abroad. However, it is not the congress or Bigiev’s publications that are within the focus of this article, but the behavioral strategies the scholar used during the investigation. Bigiev belonged to those Muslim religious figures who were described in the documents of the Eastern Department of the State Political Directorate as “progressives” (progressisty). Such ministers of religion were considered by the Bolsheviks as “fellow travelers” (poputchiki) and were meant to be used in order to create a split among the so-called “Muslim clergy”. Bigiev was well aware of this, and therefore, during the investigation, he tried to present himself as a natural ally of the Soviet government, despite his disagreement with certain postulates of Marxist theory and their application in practice by the Bolsheviks. In the archival investigative case, there are many well-known names, including figures of the pan-Islamic movement. Speaking about his friendly relations with some well-known representatives of the Muslim World in the USSR, Bigiev sought to demonstrate to the investigator his importance as a significant mediator between the Bolsheviks and Muslims.
State Regulation of the Activities of Faith-Based Organizations in African Countries in the Late 20th — Early 21st Centuries: Macro-Regional Tendencies
Authors: Zakharov Ivan
Published: September 2022

The article focuses on reasons and manifestations of restrictive policies on the operation of religious and faith-based organizations (FBO) on the example of Africa. The problem is regarded as a result of (1) intensification of religious competition during the transformation of the African religious landscape, and (2) developing self-reliance and efficiency of religious organizations and FBO’s throughout the implementation of the “humanitarian” or “civilizing” mission. The later allowed some of these organizations to take place of the key economic and political actors in the region in the end of the 20th century. The research combines quantitative and qualitative methods of geography of religion, history, political science, and incorporates a vast number of sources. It allowed to reveal shifts in the Africa religious landscape’s structure in 1910–2010; to assess the scale of “humanitarian” mission; to evaluate the legislative framework for the operation of religious organizations and FBO’s in African countries and actual restrictions applied to them. Established, that the change of historical context of religious organizations’ activities and their interaction with the authorities in the end of the 20th century manifested itself in the stricter control on the operation of organizations affiliated with religion. This claim supported by the evidence from countries of North Africa, Sudan-Sahel Corridor, Rwanda, Kenya, Zambia, etc. Governments always declare that restrictive measures are implemented due to the need to treat their citizens, but in reality, it may also pursue other aims, such as: to support of certain religions (religious favoritism), to gain or re-establish state’s monopoly of the exercise of public authority, including through the counter radical groups, which affiliate themselves with a religion. However, restrictive policies have also impacted religious organizations and FBO’s that provide essential services for the large number of vulnerable communities. Such practices may have disruptive consequences on the socio-economic and political development of the continent.
“Novice Sanya”: Underground Church Communities of the Central Chernozem Region of the Early 1930s in the Testimony of a Novice of a Secret Monastery
Authors: Samsonova Anna
Published: September 2022

The publication introduces into scientific circulation the protocols of interrogations of a member of the community of Hieromonk Erasmus (Prokopenko), who occupied a central place in the investigative case of the “Brotherhood and Sisterhood of the Luminaries” in 1933. We are talking about a number of illegal lay-led church communities located in the Central Chernozem region and in other regions of the USSR, which OGPU investigators tried to present as a single counterrevolutionary paramilitary network. As in other cases of the church underground, the investigators accused the participants in the case of “luminaries” of links with counter-revolutionary clergy abroad. The publication of these protocols can serve as a starting point for further study of mass anti-church affairs of the collectivization period.
The Evolution of the Concept “bioethics” in the Dynamics of the Soviet and Chinese History of Medicine
Authors: Nagornykh Olga
Published: September 2022

The article analyzes the formation and development of the concept of bioethics in the historical context of the Chinese and Soviet reality. The reasons for slow reception of bioethics in the Soviet and Chinese medical communities are considered. Separately, the phenomenon of Confucian bioethics is investigated in the context of its perception in the practice of medicine in China. The basis of the historiographical discourse of the article is a set of works by foreign researchers investigating the problems of bioethics and its adaptation in China, as well as a body of sources related to the development of the Christian discourse of bioethics and the peculiarities of its development in the practice of Russian medicine. The article notes that the American professor H. T. Engelhardt, the author of the concept of Orthodox bioethics, collaborated actively with Chinese researchers engaged in the Confucian tradition of understanding the ethics of medicine. The authors compare the cultural, historical, political, ideological features of the Soviet and Chinese reality aiming to explain the difficulties of evolution and subsequent reception of the concept of bioethics.

The article is devoted to the semantic content of concept “Irish/Hibernicus” in John Lynch’s “Cambrensis Eversus” (1662). In polemic with Gerald of Wales and the English/British tradition of representation of Ireland, Lynch constructed his own view on Irish. Lynch refuted the connotations of barbarism existed in intellectual discourse associated with Irish customs, religion and the rebelliousness of the Irish. Also, Lynch rejected the ethno-cultural division of the Irish community and united under the term “Irish/Hibernii” all the inhabitants of the island (Gaels and Anglo-Irish/Old English).
Recruitment of KGB Agents in the Roman Catholic and Lutheran Churches of the Latvian SSR (Overview and Examples)
Authors: Krumina-Konkova Solveiga
Published: September 2022

The presented article reviews the tasks and methods of recruiting KGB agents among the clergy and laity of the Roman Catholic and Evangelical Lutheran Church in the Latvian SSR from 1944 to 1991. The primary sources of the author’s research are the documents from the archive of the KGB of the LSSR, which have become available for scientific research since December 2018 by the Law of the Republic of Latvia “On the preservation, use of documents of the former State Security Committee and establishing the fact of cooperation of persons with the KGB”. The most significant is the alphabetic file of active agents and the electronic database of operational data “Delta Latvia”. Besides, documents from archives of the Commissar of the Council for Religious Affairs and the Council on Religious Affairs under the Council of Ministers of the USSR in the LSSR, the criminal cases of some convicted priests, stored in the State Archives of Latvia and the author’s interviews with some former KGB agents are used. The review also considers examples that characterise the recruitment methods and the agency’s tasks.

Authors: Vishivanyuk Anna
Published: September 2022

The article considers the position and activities of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church (UGCC) under the German occupation. The authors analyzed the documents by Greek Catholics, German and Soviet authorities, and tried to understand the circumstances of the relationship between the UGCC hierarchy and the occupation regime. The transformation of the position of the Greek Catholics towards the German occupation authorities was studied. The work also highlights the social and socio-political activity of the Greek Catholic clergy in Galicia during this period, church activities to support those in need. In addition, we analyzed the connection of the UGCC with the Ukrainian nationalist movement - the church, on the one hand, supported the idea of independence, on the other, condemned terror. Finally, in the article we examined how, under the conditions of the German occupation, the UGCC tried to expand the union to the East, with the support of the Vatican.
Norwid i Potoccy z Wilanowa
Authors: Gadamska-Serafin Renata
Published: September 2022

Wilanów to miejsce na biograficznej i intelektualnej mapie norwidowskiej bardzo ważne nie tylko ze względu na kultywowaną w nim pamięć o wielkim „przodku” poety – Janie III Sobieskim. Norwid uczył się w warszawskiej „malarni” związanego z Wilanowem Aleksandra Kokulara, utrzymywał także bliskie kontakty z najbliższą rodziną właściciela dóbr wilanowskich – hrabiego Aleksandra Potockiego: jego drugą żoną hrabiną Izabellą z Mostowskich, primo voto Potocką, secondo voto Starzyńską, oraz z jej synem Stanisławem Potockim (wnukiem Stanisława Kostki Potockiego). Cieszył się nawet protekcją hrabiny Starzyńskiej, a z jej synem, kolekcjonerem, wielokrotnie spotykał się w Paryżu i prowadził z nim korespondencję poświęconą głównie kwestiom sztuki. Być może wizytowali też wspólnie paryski dom aukcyjny Hôtel Drouot.

Mit, procesy mityzacji na przykładzie norwidowskiego obrazu Syberii. Rekonesans
Authors: Abriszewska Paulina
Published: September 2022

Artykuł jest analizą mitu Syberii w odczytach O Juliuszu Słowackim (oraz, kontekstowo, w wierszu Syberie), wykorzystującą trzy perspektywy teoretyczne: fenomenologię mitu Mircea Eliadego, funkcjonalizm antropologiczny oraz koncepcję mitu Rolanda Barthes’a. Autorka przedstawia, w jaki sposób Norwid pragnący, podobnie jak jego poprzednicy, mitu żywego, tworzy syberyjski mit rozumiany pragmatycznie, funkcjonalnie, czyli organizuje wspólnotę, nadając kształt narodowi pozbawionemu państwowości. Taką właśnie funkcję pełnić ma mit Syberii, który wyrasta ponad etnocentryczną perspektywę, wskazując na chrześcijaństwo jako ów mityczny środek spajający kulturę europejską. W swoim odczytaniu Anhellego oraz w wierszu Syberie Norwid tworzy obraz metaforycznej Syberii, która „rozlała się” na świat, zaś geograficzna, uwikłana w polityczną współczesną sytuację realna Syberia staje się dla poety tylko podstawą dla mitycznej narracji, czyli znaczeniem pierwotnym, nad którym nadbudował się wtórny system semiologiczny, jakim jest mit w ujęciu Barthes’a.
„Czucie i uczucie człowieka”. Uwagi o Assuncie Norwida w świetle młodopolskiej recepcji
Authors: Ratuszna Hanna
Published: September 2022

Assunta jest poematem dygresyjnym, ujawniającym poglądy Norwida na sztukę, filozofię i religię. Zgodnie z założeniami estetycznymi romantyzmu sztuka ma swoje źródła w doświadczeniu wewnętrznym, przeżyciu religijnym, ma charakter metafizyczny. Modernistyczne interpretacje twórczości Norwida, którym został poświęcony artykuł, odsłaniająjejmetafizyczne aspekty. Ustalenie kierunku i znaczenia wpływów staje się niezwykle ważnym zadaniem. Autor Assunty był postrzegany u schyłku wieku dziewiętnastego jako patron modernizmu, jego imię wymieniano wraz z imieniem Baudelaire’a, uwagi o nim pojawiały się w kontekście dyskusji na temat nowoczesnej literatury, teatru, sztuki aktorskiej. Twórczość Norwida wpisywała się w „paradygmat wzrokocentryzmu”, poeta nie stronił od optycznych metafor, stosował poetykę światłocienia, kadrowania przestrzeni, która w poemacie Assunta zyskała wertykalny charakter. Motywy doskonalenia, wzrastania pełniły w utworze istotną rolę. Refleksja nad ich znaczeniem pozwoliła ustalić rangę metapoetyckich uwag zawartych wAssuncie. Przypomniana w epoce modernizmu twórczość Norwida doczekała się wielu interpretacji, także krytycznych, opierających się na „kłopotliwych” przemilczeniach. Zenon Przesmycki sądził, że twórczość ta nie została w pełni zrozumiana, choć podjęto próby wpisania jej w estetykę modernizmu. Uznano jednak, że stanowi ona brakujące ogniwo w rozwoju polskiej poezji symbolistycznej (warto także podkreślić jej związki z „kolorystami” – jak nazywano impresjonistów). W Assuncie nawiązującej do Boskiej Komedii Dantego i Hamleta Szekspira zostaje ukazana kontemplacyjna ścieżka poznania. „Spojrzenie w niebo” jest więc aktem poznawczym, w którym rozum współistnieje z wiarą.
Ekwiwalencja i akceptowalność anglojęzycznych tłumaczeń utworów Norwida
Authors: Brajerska-Mazur Agata
Published: September 2022

Artykuł jest kontynuacją i próbą rewizji badań autorki, poświęconych tłumaczeniom utworów Norwida na język angielski. Zawarte w nim dane dotyczące przekładu tekstów poety (które tłumaczono? w jaki sposób? kto je przekłada? dlaczego?) są interpretowane z translatologicznego punktu widzenia. Autorka pokazuje m.in. rozdźwięk pomiędzy sposobem przekładu dzieł Norwida (idącym konsekwentnie wbrew modom i normom translatorycznym kultury docelowej – tj. dążącym do pełnej ekwiwalencji z oryginałem), a przyjęciem tych przekładów przez odbiorców translacji. Akceptowalność zależy od pełni zrozumienia tłumaczeń przez czytelników, którzy w bardzo ograniczonym zakresie pojmują ich polskie konotacje, ponieważ graniczą one z nieprzekładalnością.

Nerwy wiary Norwida
Authors: Korotkich Krzysztof
Published: September 2022

Artykuł jest interpretacją wiersza Norwida Nerwy z cyklu Vade-mecum. Kontekstem lektury tego utworu była korespondencja Poety z Joanną Kuczyńską, w której ważnym akcentem okazuje się swoiste pojmowanie przez romantyka wiary i chrześcijaństwa, w obranym przez siebie kontekście kulturowym. Kluczem do tej interpretacji wiersza była rewizja religijności, wiary, konieczne odrodzenie chrześcijaństwa w duchu antycznej kalokagatii.
Barthes and Lotman: Ideology vs culture
Authors:   University of Lausanne, Sériot Patrick
Published: September 2022

Despite both being great names in semiotics, Roland Barthes and Juri Lotman have more differences than they share similarities – not only because of their different political and historico-cultural environments, but also because they do not have the same object of study: it is ‘ideology’ for Barthes, and ‘culture’ for Lotman. Thus, there is no intellectual common ground between them, yet comparing them can lead us to a more important question: what is semiotics, and what has structuralism to do with it. The contrast between the two researchers is striking: Barthes, with leftist convictions in a capitalist country, published in Marxist publications, and risked nothing; Lotman, a specialist in Pushkin, had his apartment searched by KGB officers. In the name of semiotics, Bart fought against the alienation of social consciousness, against the oppression of free thought by bourgeois ideology, Lotman tried with all his might to adhere to a high elite culture. Both were subject to constant criticism from conservative forces, both promoted semiotics as a science of the modern era. But the same word, “society”, had incompatible meanings for them: for Barthes it represented a split association of opposing classes, for Lotman it had a romantic flavor of cultural integrality based on a common literary language and literature. Although we do not find a definition of structuralism in any of them, this comparison reveals unexpected aspects of the history of this important trend in the humanities and social sciences, both in France and in the Soviet Union.
Levetiracetam "Narrative Review of Neuropsychiatric Issues"
Authors: Bidaki Reza , Afshang Habibollah
Published: September 2022

Introduction
Levetiracetam, an anti-epileptic drug, is usually used as an adjunctive treatment of partial-onset seizures with or without secondary generalization. In this article, various neuropsychiatric effects of Levetiracetam are investigated.
Methods
The following databases were searched: PUBMED, Google Scholar, MEDLINE, Embase, ProQuest, and Science Direct. The articles searched in the mentioned databases were from 2003 to 2021. Ninety-nine articles were selected, fifteen articles such as case reports and letters to the editor were removed due to low scientific credibility, and eighty-four articles were selected. Due to the small number of articles, articles in the form of case reports and letters to the editor were also used to write about mania.
Results
Case reports showed that some cases of behavioral disorders, aggression, and depression had been observed following the use of Levetiracetam. In this study, various evidence were collected to determine the performance of Levetiracetam and to what extent it can have important and vital side effects. This drug can strengthen suicidal thoughts and aggression in consuming patients, especially the patients with other underlying diseases.
Conclusion
According to the side effects mentioned for Levetiracetam, it is suggested that psychiatrists and neurologists pay more attention to these side effects when prescribing.

About 10-25% of people worldwide suffer from allergic rhinitis. Due to reduced quality of life and work and educational productivity caused by allergic rhinitis, billions of dollars are spent annually due to minimized production. Although effective symptomatic treatments for this disease are available in conventional medicine, about 30% of patients use complementary medicine for their treatment to avoid the side effects of medications.
The present study reported a 40-year-old woman with a warm mizaj, referred to a health center of Rafsanjan University of Medical Sciences. Her main complaints were secondary nasal congestion and chronic allergic rhinitis. Her history showed symptoms of participatory gastric involvement and mild postnasal discharge. She also had a lot of imaging done for the polyp. The tests showed that she was prediabetic and controlled by walking. After completing the total nasal symptom score (TNSS) questionnaire and other questionnaires to determine the mizaj and demographic characteristics in the first treatment session, considering her symptoms and participatory gastric involvement, a possible diagnosis of nazleh was proposed. Therefore, she was prescribed to change her lifestyle by some measures, avoid certain foods in her diet and eat one tablespoon of pomegranate paste daily after each meal. The TNSS questionnaire was completed, and the results obtained in the first month were compared with the results obtained in the second month. Finally, after two months of intervention, the score obtained from the questionnaire decreased significantly. The use of Persian Medicine such as pomegranate paste and Persian Medicine actions were helpful in this case, significantly improving allergic rhinitis symptoms.

Background: Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) caused by the Leishmania donovani complex that is transmitted by the bites of female sandflies. Mediterranean type of VL caused by L. infantum. While, Roudbar County of Guilan Province has been introduced as a suspected cutaneous leishmaniasis focus; there are no published data on the seroprevalence of VL in Guilan Province. We aimed to investigate the seroprevalence of this disease in Roudbar County.
Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out in 2019-2020 among children less than 12 years of age to determine the seroprevalence of VL by direct agglutination test (DAT). Blood samples were randomly collected from 918 children under 12 years of age refers to the public health center in the clusters.
Results: Out of 918 children, 14 (1.52%) showed anti-Leishmania antibodies, with 4 (0.43%), 2 (0.21%), 8 (0.87%) anti-L. infantum antibodies at titers 1:800, 1:1600 and ≥1: 3200 respectively. All children with anti-Leishmania antibody titers of ≥1:800 were evaluated by a physician. Clinical manifestation of VL including fever, anemia and hepatosplenomegaly observed in a 6-year-old boy from Defraz village with anti-Leishmania antibody of titers ≥102400.This patient was admitted to the pediatric hospital in Rasht, capital of Guilan province, Iran and was successfully treated.
Conclusion: VL is being circulated with low prevalence in children up to 12 years old in Roudbar, northern part of Iran. Accordingly, it is critical to improve the awareness of physicians and public health supervisors about the importance of this fatal disease in Guilan province and especially in Roudbar area.

Background: Sparganosis is a zoonotic disease caused by Plerocercoid larvae (spargana) of the genus Spirometra. We aimed to provide molecular evidence for the infection of amphibians with Spirometra sp. in the inside and outside of Horton Plains National Park (HPNP), Sri Lanka.
Methods: The prevalence of sparganum infection in wild frogs (Truga eques and Minverya agricola) was investigated in the inside and outside of HPNP from June 2019 to April 2021.A total of 1,434 Amphibians samples were surveyed to examine the spargana infection from the study site. To identify the species identity of the collected spargana, a portion of the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (cox1) gene and nuclear 18S rRNA gene were amplified, sequenced, and analyzed.
Results: A total of 539 infected amphibians (T. eques and M.  agricola) samples were examined to survey from the study area. Spargana were detected in all dissected specimens belonging to the species Spirometra erinaceieuropaei that were genetically confirmed using the evolutionary conserved nuclear 18S rRNA gene and then compared to the GenBank deposit, indicating that S. erinaceieuropaei is the primary causal agent of sparganosis both inside and outside the HPNP.
Conclusion: Our finding is the first genetically confirmed record of S. erinaceieuropaei in amphibians in South Asia. However, further studies are needed to investigate the prevalence of sparagna infection in amphibians all over the island.

Background: Paragonimiasis presents with nonspecific symptoms and radiologic findings, allowing for the possibility of misdiagnosis. Diagnosis is generally delayed due to lack of suspicion and presentation similar to pulmonary tuberculosis.
Methods: A prospective observational study was carried out on 20 subjects at Civil Service Hospital of Nepal from March 2015 to June 2019 who presented with eosinophilia and pulmonary symptoms, and were treated empirically with Anti-tubercular therapy for suspicion of pulmonary tuberculosis.
Results: The median age of the patient was 34 years. Mean blood absolute eosinophil count was 16678/ul. Fever was present in 80% (n=16). Cough was present in 90% (n=18). Pleural effusion was noticed in 100% (n=20). Chest computed tomography showed ground-glass opacities in 65% (n=13) of patients. Pleural fluid eosinophilia (>10%) was evident in all patients. Pleural fluid LDH was elevated in 85% (n=17) of patients. Similarly, ADA was high (>40U) in 75% (n= 15) of patients, and pleural fluid sugar was low in 80% (n=16) of patients. All patients (100%) gave a history of crab or snail consumption. Paragonimus egg was detected in five (25%) patients. Twenty patients fulfilled definite or probable diagnostic criteria of paragonimiasis. Ninety-five (n=19) patients responded to praziquantel.
Conclusion: Unavailability of serologic tests or failure to demonstrate parasitic egg under the microscope should not discourage physicians to consider the diagnosis of paragonimiasis when marked eosinophilia, high LDH levels, and low glucose levels are identified in pleural fluid of a patient with a history of raw crab or snail consumption.

A escassez de estudos vinculando a prática da gestão participativa com estratégias motivacionais, aliada ao interesse em verificar como esse processo acontece nos espaços pedagógicos, norteou esse trabalho. O Objetivo foi analisar as estratégias motivacionais utilizadas pelos gestores para obter a participação dos indivíduos na gestão de espaços pedagógicos. Foi utilizado a pesquisa qualitativa e como método de coleta dos dados, pesquisa bibliográfica e entrevista semiestruturada. Participaram do estudo três respondentes do espaço pedagógico de uma instituição de ensino da Região Norte. Evidenciou-se que todos os respondentes têm interesse em participar efetivamente dos processos gerenciais, todavia, o estudo revelou que apenas o gestor do espaço pesquisado, participa de todos esses processos. Supõe-se que essa motivação tenha um fundo, efetivamente, subjetivo, revelando um desejo interno dos indivíduos. O que nos remete, a partir da pirâmide de Maslow, que a motivação dos indivíduos respondentes pode estar associada as necessidades sociais e necessidades de estima.

ABSTRACT

Treatment of interrupted aortic arch is complex. Surgical reconstruction consists of procedures that cause myocardial ischemia, such as aortic cross clamping, cardioplegia, and hypothermia. In this article, we present a patient with congenitally corrected transposition of great arteries together with Type A interruption as well as hypoplastic ascending aorta and the aortic arch. The replacement of the aorta, aortic arch, and the proximal descending aorta was performed under normothermic conditions without cardioplegia, which was achieved with a technique that preserves the systemic blood supply by using selective cannulation.

Background: Mycoplasma synoviale (Ms), the smallest and simplest bacteria, is categorized as an atypical organism that lacks cell wall. It is a worldwide economically important pathogen of poultry, causing respiratory affections, synovitis, abnormalities in eggshell and drop in production in chickens and turkeys. The present study was conducted to evaluate the druggability targets of Mycoplasma synoviae on cytokines and antioxidant changes in commercial broilers. Methods: Two hundred and eighty, day-old, unsexed broiler chicks of strain Vencobb were randomly allotted to 7 treatment groups with each treatment having 4 replicates and each replicate consisting of 10 birds. Cytokines and antioxidant parameters were determined. Result: Cytokines, TBARS, SOD, catalase and GSH levels showed a significant (P less than 0.05) difference between various treatment groups. Therefore, it is necessary to havea regular survey on poultry pathogenic mycoplasmas and to monitor antimicrobial susceptibility patterns in order to ensure that effective chemotherapy is being used to treat mycoplasmal infections.
Investigation of eye contact attempts of three-year-old children and their mothers in a play environment

Published: September 2022

Eye contact has been defined as an exchange that mediates a significant part of non-verbal procedures between people. Though studies have been carried out on eye contact between adults, the number of studies dealing with the quality, process and messages of eye contact between children and attachment figures is limited. The goal of this study is to analyse the quality, process and messages of eye contact between three-year-old children and their mothers during their interaction in a play setting. It is a qualitative case study. Micro analysis was used as the analysis method. 14 three-year-old children, 8 girls and 6 boys, participated in the study with their mothers. A 10-minute play process was recorded in a standard setting with standard materials. Records were evaluated in periods cut with micro analysis method and transformed into graphics. Study results showed 374 attempts to make eye contact between children and their mothers. It was understood that majority of these attempts were initiated by the mothers and the success/failure rate of these attempts were close each other. It was observed that success rate of eye contact was higher when it was initiated by children and failure rate of eye contact was higher in cases when it was initiated by mothers. Causes of making eye contact shows that mothers were more likely to make eye contact when they ask questions, wait for an answer and control the child and children tried to make eye contact when they ask for approval of their mothers, chat and exchange ideas with them.

Keywords: Mother, child, interaction, eye contact.
