Aim To determine the normative range of ultrasound dimensions for the liver, spleen and kidneys in healthy children according to gender, age, body measurements, body surface area (BSA), and the influence of ethnicity on organ size.
Methods The prospective study included children, ranging from full-term neonates to children aged 15, with normal ultrasonographic (US) findings of the liver, spleen and kidney and no clinical evidence of a disease. Gender, age, as well as body measurements and BSA, were determined for each child along with US measurements, and normative ranges were established. 
Results US images of the liver and spleen from 372 children and 366 US images of kidneys of 366 children were included. US measurements of the liver, spleen and kidney correlated well with gender, age, body weight and height, and often differed to a greater or lesser extent from the normal range of measurements (5th to 95th percentile) reported in other studies.
Conclusion Our results differed slightly from other reports conducted in Europe, but larger differences compared to measurements performed on children on other continents were found. Thus, our study confirmed that ethnically appropriate and modern tables of normal ultra-sound dimensions for the liver, spleen and kidneys should be used, and that the national nomogram is justified.

Published: August 2024

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused mild to severe mental health problems, including anxiety, depression, trauma and sleep disorders. It also affects the psychosexual health. Sexual health is an important facet of life that needs attention to maintain a good quality of life. However, not many studies have examined the correlation between these dyads, specifically intimacy between married couples and the psychological problems occuring during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study aimed to determine which mental health problems (symptoms of anxiety, depression, trauma, and insomnia) were the most predictors of marital intimacy during the pandemic in Indonesia. In an online survey method, from the results of 930 married respondents, intimacy was found to have a negative correlation with anxiety symptoms (rs = - 0.28, p < 0.001), depression symptoms (rs = - 0.35, p < 0.001), trauma symptoms (rs = - 0.37, p < 0.001) and insomnia symptoms (rs = - 0.32, p < 0.001). Depression is found to be the most predictive factor among all mental health problems to intimacy. This relationship was associated with several factors, including decreased partner’s libido, erectile function, ineffective communication, separation, fatigue, emotional dysregulation and loneliness. A program to mitigate these problems should be planned for primary and governmental healthcare levels.

Various staging and grading systems aim to correlate morphological and clinical parameters with the prognosis of soft tissue sarcoma. However, the existing literature offers inconsistent findings. This retrospective cross-sectional study investigated the prognostic value of common histopathological parameters in predicting the survival of extremity soft tissue sarcoma patients. The study comprised 122 patients, and it evaluated parameters like tumour necrosis, mitotic count, tumour differentiation score, and tumour margin status. The survival outcomes were analysed concerning these histopathological variables. The 5-year survival rate was 48%, with a median survival of 88 months. Of the patients, 87.7% (n = 107) had tumour-free margins. Statistical analyses, including Kaplan-Meier Survival Analysis and Cox Proportional Hazard regression, revealed that none of these parameters exhibited significant prognostic value (p>0.05). This study found that none of the histopathological parameters examined demonstrate prognostic significance for long-term survival among soft tissue sarcoma patients over a 10-year follow-up period.

Authors:   Centre for Community Health Studies, Faculty of Health Sciences, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, Jalan Raja Muda Abdul Aziz, 50300 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
Published: August 2024

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) diagnosis relies on clinical signs visible during dilated fundus examinations. However, pre-clinical DR may have neurodegenerative alterations that are only apparent through visual function assessments. This study compared visual functions in type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) patients at various non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR) stages and determined the risks of reduced visual functions. A total of 56 adult DM participants (mean age: 40.41 + 7.281 years) were classified into DM without DR, mild NPDR, and moderate-to-severe NPDR. Visual acuity (VA), colour vision discrimination (CV) and contrast sensitivity (CS) were assessed using logMAR chart, FM100 Hue test, and Pelli-Robson chart, respectively. The moderate-to-severe NPDR group exhibited poorest VA than other groups, with reduced CV discrimination (all parameters p<0.05) and reduced CS [F(2,107)=22.898, p<0.001]. An adjusted multinomial logistic regression model revealed a 24.4% higher risk of reduced CS in the moderate-to-severe NPDR group compared to DM without DR group (OR:0.756, 95% CI: 0.627-0.913, p=0.004). In conclusion, moderate-to-severe NPDR had reduced CS and CV, with higher risks of reduced CS compared to those without DR. Incorporating these parameters into current DR optometric screening programs can mitigate NPDR progression and enhance long-term visual function outcomes of the patients.

Authors: Orum Çattık Esra , Ergenekon Yasemin
Published: August 2024

Bağımsızlık, bireyin kendisinden beklenen becerileri bir başkasına bağımlı olmadan sergileyerek toplumun aktif bir üyesi olmasıdır. Bireyin bağımsızlığını doğrudan etkileyen ve yetersizlikten kaynaklanan pek çok sınırlılığın erken çocukluk döneminden itibaren sağlanan eğitsel düzenlemeler ve uyarlamalarla azaltılabildiği bilinmektedir. Ancak bu desteklerin yalnızca erken çocukluk ve çocukluk dönemi için değil yetişkinlik ve sonrası için de bağımsız yaşama hazırlayıcı olması önemlidir. Bütün bireyler gibi otizm spektrum bozukluğu olan genç yetişkinlerin de kendi yaşamlarında söz sahibi olarak kendilerine ilişkin hedef belirleme ve bu hedefleri gerçekleştirmek için planlar yapma, bütün bunları nasıl yapacaklarını öğrenme ve bu şekilde yaşam kalitelerini arttırmaya gereksinimleri ve hakları vardır. Öz-belirleme, bireyin yaşamına ilişkin kararlarını yalnızca kendi inancı, iradesi ve değer yargıları doğrultusunda bağımsız olarak almasıdır. Çok boyutlu bir yapı olan yaşam kalitesi ise bireyin fiziksel, duygusal ve maddi refah, kişilerarası ilişkiler, sosyal katılım, haklar ve kişisel gelişim ve öz-belirleme dahil olmak üzere birçok alandaki refahını veya yaşamdan memnuniyetini ifade eden bir kavramdır. Otizm spektrum bozukluğu olan genç yetişkinlerle gerçekleştirilen araştırmaların bulguları öz-belirleme düzeyi yüksek olan bireylerin bağımsızlıklarının arttığını, kendilerinin ve ailelerinin yaşam kalitelerinin daha yüksek olduğunu göstermektedir. Bu araştırmada ulusal özel eğitim alanyazında henüz yeni bir kavram olduğu düşünülen öz-belirlemenin ne olduğu, otizm spektrum bozukluğu olan genç yetişkinlerin yaşamında öz-belirleyiciliğin önemi, yaşam kalitesi kavramı ve yaşam kalitesi ile öz-belirleme arasındaki ilişki açıklanmıştır.
Çin Halk Cumhuriyeti Eğitim Sisteminin Değerlendirilmesi
Authors: Aydın A. Taylan
Published: August 2024

Günümüzde eğitim sistemlerinin uluslararası sınavlarla değerlendirilmesi, sadece öğrencilerin temel yeterliliklerini karşılaştırmakla kalmayıp, ülkelerin öğretim programlarının içerikleri, öğrenme yöntem ve teknikleri, ölçme yaklaşımları ve öğretmen eğitiminin kapsam ve hedeflerine ilişkin uluslararası alanda veri sağlamaktadır. PISA ve TIMSS sınavlarındaki başarı farkları, özellikle Çin'in bu sınavlardaki başarısının analiz edilmesine yönelik ilgiyi artırmıştır. Bu araştırmanın amacı, Çin eğitim sisteminin yönetsel yapılanmasının ve süreç boyutlarının uluslararası sınav sonuçlarına nasıl yansıdığını incelemek ve Türk eğitim sistemi için potansiyel iyileştirme alanlarını belirlemektir. Araştırma, Çin eğitim sisteminin politika ve amaçlarını ele alarak, eğitim sisteminin yönetsel yapısını ve süreç boyutunu doküman analizi yöntemiyle incelemektedir. Çin, 1993'te Öğretmen Kanunu'nu ve 1998'de Yüksek Öğretim Kanunu'nu onaylamıştır. Bu politikalar, öğretmen eğitiminin standardizasyonu ve sertifikasyonu süreçlerinde pedagojik ve akademik açıdan yarar sağlamıştır. Çin'in rasyonel ve işlevsel örgüt yapısı, uluslararası sınavlardaki başarıları ve ekonomik büyümesi ile doğrulanmaktadır. Buna karşılık, Türkiye'de eğitim politikalarında sık değişiklikler gözlemlenmektedir uluslararası merkezi sınavlarda ise benzer bir başarı sağlamamıştır. Bu araştırma, Türkiye'nin öğretmen niteliklerine yönelik daha sistematik ve şeffaf kriterler benimsemesi ve eğitim politikalarını evrensel standartlarla uyumlu hale getirmesi gerektiğini vurgulamaktadır. Ayrıca Çin'in merkezi yaklaşımı ve önemli eğitim yatırımlarının tutarlı akademik başarılar sağladığını, Türkiye'nin ise eğitim sistemini iyileştirmek için yapısal sorunları ve politika tutarsızlıklarını ele alması gerektiğini ortaya koymaktadır.

Published: August 2024

La jurisprudencia constitucional y contencioso-administrativa permite, con condiciones, que las leyes sancionadoras en blanco se remitan a reglamentos o a otros actos jurídicos no normativos para completar la descripción del tipo infractor. Esto se justifica en el hecho de que la potestad sancionadora protege el cumplimiento de la legalidad y de sus actos de aplicación, y en el carácter discrecional de la regla complementaria que integra el tipo, e implica que la modificación de esta regla no legislativa conlleva la modificación del tipo infractor, por lo que puede suponer la aplicación, en su caso, y con límites, de la retroactividad favorable.

The Legal Concept of Employer's Financial Liability and Problems of Its Application
Authors:   Professor of the Department of Land, Labor and Environmental Law of the Kuban, Savin Viktor T.
Published: August 2024

For the first time in the domestic science of labor law, the article examines the complex and practically undeveloped concept of material responsibility of the employer to the employee, legalized by the legislator in the codified labor act, which emphasizes the relevance of the topic of this work. The essence of this concept is the obligation of the employer to compensate the damage caused by his fault to the employee, which means that it is based on such legal categories as “duty” and “damage”, which the author focuses on. Their analysis revealed a number of problems of the concept under consideration related to the imperfection of the norms that form its legal basis governing the financial responsibility of the employer, which led to his release from financial responsibility for non-fulfillment of his work duties, which entailed violation of the individual labor rights of employees. This indicates the complete inconsistency of this concept, the legal framework of which is in need of significant reconstruction, which causes the legislator to rethink it. Therefore, the author proposes a new concept of the employer’s financial liability, the essence of which lies not in the employer’s obligation to compensate for the damage caused to the employee, but in the obligation to suffer adverse consequences provided for by a punitive sanction.
Special Aspects of Proving Emotional Damage in Labor Disputes
Authors:   Lecturer at the College of the Altai State University, Vasilenko Yulia E.
Published: August 2024

The article is devoted to the peculiarities of proving moral damage in the context of labor disputes. Moral damage is one of the most difficult categories, since it is subjective in nature. Unlike material harm, moral is very difficult to measure with specific numbers or objective criteria, since it is associated with emotional and psychological aspects. Therefore, the process of proving the fact of causing moral damage, as well as the amount of damage to date, causes difficulties in legal practice. In the article, the authors analyze the existing legal norms regarding compensation for moral damage in labor relations, judicial practice, and also propose ways to improve labor legislation in this area.

The image of paralympic athletes in the Polish media on the example of “Przegląd Sportowy”
Authors: Wesołowska Paulina
Published: August 2024

One of the key components of the image of athletes is the media discourse. The media message reaching its recipients affects their perception of sport and people involved in it. This seems particularly important in the context of sports for people with disabilities due to a number of stereotypes attributed to people with disabilities in society. The image of para-athletes created in the media can have various consequences, and what largely determines them is the way media messages are formulated. The purpose of the following considerations is therefore to analyze sports articles with particular attention to the types of media used in writing about sports for people with disabilities. In the first part of the work, I wanted to present the specificity of parasport related to it, as well as the role played by the media in relation to the situation of para-athletes, including Paralympic athletes. Then, I described the research methods and tools that I used at the stage of analyzing press materials and selecting appropriate typologies. The last part contains the results of my analysis of press articles contained in 25 issues of “Przegląd Sportowy” from the period August 17, 2021–September 13, 2021, around the Paralympic Games in Tokyo on August 24, 2021–September 5, 2021.

Authors: Nivedha S. , Deepa M. , Snehith S.
Published: August 2024

Background: Millet is a vast growing segment in baking industry and it has paved a way for new innovative products using different varieties of flours. When the consumer demand towards the low gluten products increases, the demand for refined wheat flour alternative also increases. Development of bread with varying proportions of two pseudo cereal flours. Buckwheat flour and quinoa flour was added to refined wheat bread, especially in greater amounts, it proved more efficient at protein content. Methods: A meticulous investigation was conducted to assess the impact of different quantities of RWF (30-50 g), QF (20-40 g) and BF (10-30 g) on the quality attributes of the millet bread, using a D-Optimal design for optimization. Result: The findings revealed that an increased proportion of refined wheat flour (RWF) enhanced the overall acceptability of the bread. Furthermore, the hardness and dough raising of the bread was influenced by higher RWF quantities and reduced levels of quinoa flour (QF) and buckwheat flour (BF). In general, mineral contents increased as the amounts of buckwheat and quinoa flour increased. The optimized proportions for RWF, BF and QF were determined to be 50g, 39.04 g and 10.955 g, respectively. This optimization yielded the following outcomes: the dough raising capacity of yeast was 57.3185 % and the loaf volume 606.14 and its crust colour is 70.240 a bread texture (hardness) of 443.650 N/cm². These results are in concurrence with the predictions made by the significantly (p less than 0.05) fitted quadratic models.

Authors: Sudjaroen Yuttana , Thongkao Kanittada , Thongmuang Pimporn
Published: August 2024

Background: Mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana L.) juice shortages and excesses during harvest season can potentially be addressed by processing the juice. However, small-scale producers in Ranong, Thailand are unable to produce juice of a high grade due to financial limitations and a lack of technology transfer. Methods: This study aimed to develop “ready-to-use” small-scale industrial juicer technology to improve the taste and appearance of mangosteen juice. Anthocyanin and tannin contents present in juice and their antioxidant property were also evaluated by spectroscopic-based methods and DDPH radical scavenging activity test. Result: The juice from the new procedure (CJ) had a better physical appearance and taste than the juice from the prior technique (C). The quality of the juice was improved with the use of the mangosteen juicer due to the decrease in turbidity and suspension as well as a lack of an astringent taste. However, the appearance and color did not reach to quality of industrialized commercial juice (I). The new procedure (CJ) contained the highest tannin content (40 mg/100 ml). While commercial juice (I) contained the highest anthocyanin content (16.2 mg/100 ml). The old technique (C) possessed the strongest DDPH radical scavenging activity (59.23 mg of Trolox equivalent/100 ml and 44.31 mg of ascorbic equivalent/100 ml) following in CJ and I, respectively. In addition, this new process can improve the quality of mangosteen juice, especially its color, taste and clearness, therefore additional pectinase usage and determination of condensed tannin will be implemented for further study.
Evaluating climate change impacts on water safety : A case study of the Danube in Budapest
Authors: Takacsne Gyorgy Katalin , Nagy-Kovács Zsuzsanna
Published: August 2024

The study examines the impact of climate change on the example of the Danube as a drinking water base in the Budapest area. The drinking water supply provided by river bank filtration systems is exposed to more frequent water level fluctuations and temperature changes in the connected surface waters. Our goal was to identify the most critical periods within the year by evaluating the daily water level and water temperature data between 1943-2021 and 1947-2021, respectively. It is important to understand the severity and frequency of climatic changes influencing drinking water safety. This aim can be achieved by evaluating the identified risks. Furthermore, as these risks affecting drinking water safety change significantly within a year, attention is drawn to the important role of both residential and industrial water use patterns. The minimum level of water safety determined for the period of increased load is of indicative value, based on which it becomes necessary to develop appropriate action plans. Based on statistical methods, it has been previously identified that the average water level of the Danube showed a decreasing trend in addition to an increase in water temperature. In this paper, we demonstrate that the water level fluctuations and the temperature changes follow an annual pattern. By superposing these patterns in an additive risk matrix, critical periods can be determined and, therefore, play a significant role in the time planning of larger maintenance or investment tasks. The study did not aim to evaluate in detail the investigation of other ecological, economic, and social effects of climate change related to drinking water safety for reasons of scope.

Authors: Das Pratisha , Baruah Partha Pratim , Kalita Nilotpal , Sahariah Dhrubajyoti
Published: August 2024

Cephaleuros parasiticus Karst, a parasitic green alga that causes severe damage to agricultural and horticulture crops needs a critical understanding of its dispersion patterns to develop an effective management strategy. This work aimed to examine the potential distribution of C. parasiticus Karst in India using maximum entropy (MaxEnt) modelling strategy. The species occurrence data were gathered from several places across India. Using MaxEnt, these occurrence records were linked with environmental characteristics such as climatic, topographic indicators to create a predictive distribution model. The model's performance was assessed using the Area Under the Curve (AUC) and visualized using distribution maps. This algal pathogen is most commonly found in tropical and subtropical areas with high humidity and warm temperatures; and in our study, the MaxEnt model accurately anticipated the algal parasite's potential distribution, suggesting its appropriateness for ecological niche modelling. The most relevant environmental variables were observed to be slope, Mean Diurnal Range (BIO2), Land Use and Land Cover (LULC), Precipitation seasonality (BIO15) and Annual precipitation (BIO12), providing insights into the species' ecological requirements and preferences. In addition, the analysis highlighted possible high-risk areas in Assam, West Bengal, Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Karnataka and Eastern and south western coastal lines of India for this algal parasite invasion, highlighting places that require immediate attention for prevention and management techniques. The results of this research will be beneficial in the management of ecological impacts of C. parasiticus Karst in India and other regions with similar environmental conditions.

In the growing literature on gender and taxation in low-income countries, little attention has been given to the implications of having more women in tax administration. This is even true in high-and middle-income countries, with a recent OECD survey of 43 countries reporting that in four out of every five cases studied, no analysis had been undertaken of the gender dimensions of tax administration. The gender imbalance in revenue administrations of low-income countries remains high though it varies from country to country. It is especially pronounced in senior management positions. This study aims to extend our knowledge of this hard-to-research area in the Ethiopian context, where evidence on the gender composition of the workforce and the performance and misconduct of women in tax administration is currently non-existent. We assess the representation of women in the workforce in the federal tax administration offices of the Ministry of Revenue at different levels in the hierarchy. We also examine performance, misconduct and turnover trends, as well as employees’ salaries disaggregated by gender.

In the social order, there are usually known for two genders that play a role, they are men and women, along with their respective roles in society. In modern society, there are concepts of patriarchy and matriarchy. Patriarchy is a concept that lineage is determined by the paternal line and men have the right to be dominant while women are subordinate. Matriarchy is a concept regarding the prioritisation of women in society by placing women as determinants of lineage and upholding gender equality. The author conducts research related to these two concepts by focusing on understanding the concept of matriarchy in the Artemyra nation in Shinobu Ohtaka's The Adventure of Sinbad comic. The method used in this research is a descriptive method with a qualitative approach. The data source used is The Adventure of Sinbad comic chapters 46, 47, 51, 53, and 54. Based on the results of the analysis, it can be understood that the concept of matriarchy in Artemyra is not a real matriarchy but a reverse patriarchy. Reverse patriarchy, like the concept of patriarchy in general, places one gender in a dominant position. In Artemyra, it is women who dominate the society. Reverse patriarchy has little possibility of happening in modern society because the concept of matriarchy itself upholds gender equality.

Noninvasive testing in the diagnosis of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis

Published: August 2024

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) [previously termed nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)] is estimated to be the most common chronic liver disease worldwide, affecting 25% of the world’s population and becoming the leading cause of liver transplant in the US. The progression of MASLD from simple hepatic steatosis to the more severe metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) [previously nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH)] has critically important impacts on clinical outcomes. Early detection and staging of disease severity, along with lifestyle modifications and treatment of comorbid conditions, is the best way to prevent the progression or reverse the course of the disease. Although noninvasive imaging and predictive indices are available for the evaluation of hepatic fibrosis, the only way to diagnose MASH remains liver biopsy despite the risk for complications and being less desired by patients. Hence, there is a need to develop noninvasive tests to aid in both the diagnosis and monitoring of MASH, especially with the recent emergence of liver-directed therapy for “at risk” MASH (MASH with NAS ≥ 4 and Stage ≥ F2 Fibrosis). The goal of the current review is to cover the most recent pathophysiology, current diagnostic methods, and recent advances to aid in the diagnosis of MASH.
