Published: May 2024

INTRODUCTION. Over the past decades, in developed countries and in the Russian Federation, there has been an increase in the number of patients with secondary lymphedema who have undergone surgical treatment with dissection of regional lymph nodes and radiation therapy for various forms of gynecological cancer in women and prostate cancer in men, as well as breast cancer.
AIM. Search and analysis of the results of previously published randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of the effectiveness of various non-drug rehabilitation methods in patients with lymphedema of the extremities who underwent radical treatment for cancer of various locations.
MATERIALS AND METHODS. A search was conducted and studied publications in international scientific peer-reviewed publications (PEDro Database) on medical rehabilitation for cancer treatment-related lymphedema (LSPR) for the period from 1996 to December 2023 using the keywords “lymphedema”, “rehabilitation”. 145 RCTs focused on medical rehabilitation and conservative treatment of LSPR.
DISCUSSION. Lifestyle correction and psychosocial interventions are recommended to improve the quality of life of patients. Studies have found that early activation, various physical exercises with a slow increase in loads under the supervision of a physical therapist are safe and help increase endurance, strength and range of motion in a limb with lymphatic edema. The clinical effectiveness of therapeutic exercises in the pool has been proven, manifested in the reduction of edema in patients with LSPR. The effectiveness of compression products with Velcro technology as an alternative to rigid low-stretch bandages in patients with LSPR has been confirmed. The anti-edematous and anti-inflammatory effects of low-intensity laser therapy and magnetic therapy in the rehabilitation of patients with LSLR have been proven. Alternating pneumatic compression (APC) is recommended as an adjuvant treatment in addition to comprehensive decongestant therapy. Preference should be given to the use of technologies of advanced hardware lymphatic drainage methods that imitate manual techniques.
CONCLUSION. To improve the physical and socio-psychological functioning of patients with LSPR, an integrated approach is required, including lifestyle changes, psychological correction, compression therapy, modern exercise therapy techniques, and safe physiotherapeutic technologies. Conducted scientific research indicates the high effectiveness of the use of manual and hardware lymphatic drainage techniques, while the use of PPC is more economical and accessible, and does not require the involvement of specialists who know the expensive method of manual lymphatic drainage.

Authors: Arun Chikhale Madhavi , Nadar M. D.
Published: May 2024

The Overhead Stacker Crane is a hybrid device that combines the features and constructions of "Industrial Forklifts" and "Electric Overhead Cranes." Stacker cranes are equipment with varied levels of automation that are used to store materials. They travel along the aisles of the operating areas, where they enter, position, or extract the material. This type of crane is widely used in assembly shops, production stores, warehouses, etc. Each application needs customizing. The lifting carriage of different overhead stacker crane design is studied in this study. The new design has two advantages: the lifting carriage is bracketed to the mast of the overhead stacker, and the new lifting mechanism is more compact. The most common structure configurations are single-mast and twin-mast constructions. Single-mast structures are used for investigation in our research. A live example has been chosen, and several design engineering stages have been implemented, with the goal of achieving compliance with safety-related standards as well as possible enhancements for future consideration. All the concerned parts have been 3D modelled, analyzed using classical means as well as advanced means of FEA. The goal of using design engineering concepts is to provide a verified design with documentation that can be manufactured with or without indicated improvements. Static analysis of identified parts is performed using both hand calculation and the FEA approach.

Published: May 2024

Cellular materials exhibit two key properties: structures and mechanisms. This allows for the design of structures using cellular materials while effectively controlling both stiffness and flexibility, based on the connectivity of the struts. This study aims to explore the in-plane flexible properties of cellular materials dominated by bending under macroscopic deformation. Additionally, it seeks to establish a method for designing a passive morphing airfoil with flexible cellular cores. The investigation focuses on airfoils featuring re-entrant and S-shaped cellular cores, analyzing their behavior under static loads by examining the deformation of the cellular cores subjected to aerostatic loads. In the context of the airfoil's deformation with flexible cellular cores under aerostatic loading, shear emerges as the predominant deformation mode for the cores of the airfoil. Wings of conventional aircraft are optimized for only a few conditions, not for the entire flight envelope. Therefore, it is necessary to develop the morphing airfoil with smart structures for the next generation of excellent aircraft. In this project, this was made possible using, re-entrant and S-shaped auxetic structures as a member of the meta- material family, with negative Poisson's ratio to enable an effortless passive morphing mechanism as it has high flexibility along in-plane direction (chord-wise). The 3D CAD Models of Re-entrant and S-shaped auxetic airframes were designed and analyzed. Initially, Static Structural analysis is performed on both airframes to observe the structure’s behavior, and design modification and optimization are performed in different iterations. With a reduction in maximum equivalent stress by 20%, the Re-entrant airframe exhibits lower stress and hence more flexibility. The wings were modeled with a span of 1m using auxetic airframes, air pressure was generated using CFD analysis with MACH 0.45. Finally, the fluid-structure interaction was done by importing the air pressure and performing static structural analysis for the structural performance of wings using auxetic airframes. It was found that Re-entrant auxetic wing showed an increase of 9.99% in load carrying capacity, accompanied by a decrease of 389 grams of weight when compared to S-shaped auxetic wing. Considering the deformation of the airframe with flexible cellular cores under a load, the re-entrant honeycomb core shows the highest flexibility in shear and causes lower stress than the S-auxetic cores. This implies that the re-entrant honeycomb core has the potential for passive morphing.
Socio-Economic and Environmental Outcomes of Street Food Vending and its Sustainability in Selected Urban Areas of Kenya
Authors: Achieng Owoko Monica , Kiptui Mark , Jerotich Cheserek Grace
Published: May 2024

Street food (SF) vending is a common livelihood activity in many urban areas globally. It is driven by a lack of employment opportunities in the formal sector and by the demand for cheap ready-to-eat food by urban residents. However, the trade is perceived to have adverse impacts on the urban environment and hence authorities seek to eliminate it from urban spaces. The purpose of this study was to assess the sustainability of SF vending in Bungoma, Kakamega and Busia urban areas in Western Kenya by examining its social, economic and environmental outcomes. The research design used was a cross-sectional descriptive survey. Proportionate sampling and simple random sampling were used to select respondents in each urban area. The sample consisted of two hundred and twenty-four respondents. Data was collected through questionnaires, observation checklists and photography. The findings show that SF vending met the food security needs of residents and also provided employment opportunities. However, the earnings were too low to meet the needs of vendors and their employees. Despite the low income, the trade also provided revenue for the county governments through the payment of various levies. Although personal hygiene was relatively good, workplaces were strewn with litter and waste disposal was poorly done. In order for SF vending to be sustainable in the long run, SF vendors need to be empowered through stakeholder engagement to increase their earnings to a level where it can meet their needs. They also need to adopt environmentally friendly waste disposal methods.

The Effectiveness of Sensor Visualizations and Graphic Augmentations for Detecting Vertical Obstacles
Authors: Flanigen Paul , Wilson Michael , Sarter Nadine , Atkins Ella
Published: May 2024

Slow or failed detection of low‐salience vertical obstacles and associated wires is one of today’s leading causes of fatal helicopter accidents. The risk of collisions with such obstacles is likely to increase as advanced aerial mobility and broadening drone activity promises
to increase the density of air traffic at low altitudes, while growing demand for electricity and communication will expand the number of vertical structures. The current see‐and‐avoid detection paradigm relies on pilots to spend much of their visual attention looking outside
for obstacles. This method is inadequate in low‐visibility conditions, cluttered environments, and given the need for pilots to engage in multiple competing visual tasks. With the expected growing number of hazards and an increased traffic volume, the current approach to collision avoidance
will become even less tenable. A human‐in‐the‐loop helicopter simulator study was conducted to assess the effectiveness of sensor visualizations (image intensification or thermal imaging) and graphic augmentations (a bounding box around a tower and a circle surrounding
the base of the tower) for supporting fast and reliable detection of vertical structures. Graphic augmentations resulted in faster tower detection time when ambient visibility and illumination were reduced close to the limit for visual flight. Bounding boxes around towers were detected first
in all conditions but tended to mask the obstacle they were meant to highlight. Sensor visualization affected tower detection time only at night, where night vision goggles were more effective than the infrared thermal sensor.

Urban areas face increasing challenges from pluvial flooding due to climate change and increased urbanization rate. Sustainable construction practices involving circular economy principles offer a promising solution to enhance urban flood resilience. This paper investigates the utilization of waste materials in porous concrete pavers for mitigating urban flooding. The study examines the performance of porous concrete pavers incorporating waste materials such as solidified WWTP sludge in terms of permeability, durability, and flood resilience. Laboratory experiments and numerical simulations are conducted to assess the hydraulic properties and flood mitigation capabilities of these sustainable pavers. Results demonstrate that the incorporation of waste materials infuences paver’s mechanical properties but no significant effect are observed on the permeability of porous concrete. However, the use of waste materials contributes to the circular economy by repurposing industrial by-products and reducing environmental impact. This research provides valuable insights into sustainable construction practices for enhancing urban flood resilience while promoting the efficient utilization of waste materials

Authors: Özdemir Arzu
Published: May 2024

Calving efficiency, an important target in cattle breeding, has been negatively affected by some environmental factors. Therefore, calving difficulty creates negative economic consequences. In this study, it was aimed to investigate the relationship between the first calving difficulty in Holstein Friesian (HF) cows in terms of management and origin factors. The material of the research consists of 1475 calving difficulty records from 5 different enterprises engaged in HF breeding, located in the Central Anatolia Region of Türkiye, covering the years from 2013 to 2019. The scoring system used to determine calving difficulty: normal without intervention (NB), normal with intervention (NBI), difficult/intervention with equipment (DB), and abnormal birth (AB). In the calving difficulty analysis, the management factor is classified as 1-2-3-4-5 and the origin of the cow is classified as 1 (foreign origin) and 2 (native origin). No findings were observed for NBI scores. Total NB, DB, and AB scores were 1250 (84.74%), 192 (13.01), and 33 (2.25%), respectively. Chi-square test was performed to test the differences among farms. Among the enterprises, the highest NB rate was observed in the 5th enterprise with 90.07%, the minimum DB rate was observed in the 5th enterprise with 8.45%, and the AB rate was at least 0.66% in the 1st enterprise. The difference between farms was significant for calving difficulty (P

The conventional methodology for sentiment analysis within large language models (LLMs) has predominantly drawn upon human emotional frameworks, incorporating physiological cues that are inherently absent in text-only communication. This research proposes a paradigm shift towards an emotionallyagnostic approach to sentiment analysis in LLMs, which concentrates on purely textual expressions of sentiment, circumventing the confounding effects of human physiological responses. The aim is to refine sentiment analysis algorithms to discern and generate emotionally congruent responses strictly from text-based cues. This study presents a comprehensive framework for an emotionally-agnostic sentiment analysis model that systematically excludes physiological indicators whilst maintaining the analytical depth required for accurate emotion detection. A novel suite of metrics tailored to this approach is developed, facilitating a nuanced interpretation of sentiment within text data, which is paramount for enhancing user interaction across a spectrum of text mining applications, including recommendation systems and interactive AI characters. The research undertakes a critical comparative analysis, juxtaposing the newly proposed model with traditional sentiment analysis techniques, to evaluate efficacy enhancements and to substantiate its application potential. Further, the investigation delves into the short-term memory capabilities of LLMs, exploring the implications for character AI roleplaying interfaces and their ability to recall and respond to user input within a text-driven emotional framework. Findings indicate that this emotionally-agnostic sentiment analysis approach not only simplifies the sentiment assessment process within LLMs but also opens avenues for a more precise and contextually appropriate emotional response generation. This abstracted model, devoid of human physiological constraints, represents a significant advancement in text mining, fostering improved interactions and contributing to the evolution of LLMs as adept analytical tools in various domains where emotional intelligence is crucial.

This research is aiming to enhance the user experience in music consumption by incorporating real-time facial emotion analysis. Emotions play a fundamental role in shaping individual preferences, and leveraging facial expressions as a means of understanding user’s emotional states can significantly contribute to personalized music recommendations. Our proposed system begins by capturing real-time facial expressions using a webcam or analyzing static images. These facial expressions are then processed through a CNN-based emotion recognition model trained to classify emotions such as happiness, sadness, anger, and more. The CNN model extracts high-level features from facial images, enabling accurate emotion recognition. Using the detected emotional state as input, our system employs a recommendation algorithm tailored to the user's current emotional state to suggest relevant music or videos from YouTube.

This paper presents the results of an action research conducted with a group of teachers from the literacy cycle of a public school in São Paulo. The research aimed to assess the impact of a training proposal specifically designed for this study. The data presented herein pertain to the pedagogical knowledge of teachers regarding the subjects they teach. The proposed training covered topics related to Cognitive Psychology, Psycholinguistics, and Cognitive Science, focusing primarily on the development of linguistic, metalinguistic, and cognitive abilities essential for the initial stages of reading and writing. Participating teachers were asked to complete two questionnaires—one before and one after engaging in the formative proposal—to gauge their initial understanding of the theme and the potential contributions or advancements resulting from the intervention in their professional development. Analysis of the results revealed that, despite all participants having undergone initial training in Pedagogy, the majority indicated a lack of exposure to formative content associated with the development of metalinguistic abilities. This gap in knowledge was evident, highlighting a qualitative improvement in their professional performance and literacy teaching practice after the intervention. We advocate for the essential inclusion of linguistic and metalinguistic knowledge in the curricula of initial training programs for literacy teachers.

The purpose of this paper is to present some fundamental phonotactic concepts and their importance in phonological awareness tasks in literacy. Only after the beginning of their schooling do children start to observe and notice the segmental elements of words. Furthermore, mastery of phonological awareness will determine children’s reading success in school, which in turn affects their proficiency in adulthood (BYRNE; LEDEZ, 1983). In this study, we present a playful way to explore the sonority scale perception with students through the recognition of geometric shapes (circle and straight line), according to the Sonority Syllable Model (SSM), proposed by Basbøll (2005). It is an alternative proposal to the phonotactic description and analysis that uses distinctive features in its sound organization. In our proposal, we use a phoneme-grapheme correspondence, but, as Basbøll (2005) suggests, we firstly establish which one is the prototypical syllable peak, i.e., main/central peak, in order to determine the implicational relations among the segment types. In addition, in a playful way to illustrate this relation, we make use of a set of concentric circles known as Euler’s diagram. This set of circles is a mathematical set used to demonstrate the intersection among elements. Lastly, we show how this adaptation may be used in a pedagogical practice with children and adults in the literacy stage.

Findings: Augmented reality (AR) exhibits significant potential to revolutionize education by transforming the learning process into a more active, effective, and meaningful experience. AR accomplishes this by providing advanced technology that allows users to interact with virtual and real-time applications, thereby immersing them in realistic educational scenarios. Across a spectrum of subjects, including Medicine, Chemistry, Mathematics, Physics, Geography, Biology, Astronomy, and History, AR offers advantages over conventional technology and traditional teaching methods.
Implications to Theory, Practice and Policy: The research underscores the positive potential of AR in education and highlights its capacity to bridge the gap between technology and active, engaged learning. To fully harness these benefits, educators and researchers should address the identified limitations of AR and explore its further integration into educational practices. This paper emphasizes the need for ongoing research and innovation to optimize AR's role in education and enhance learning outcomes. Future research endeavors should concentrate on refining the implementation of AR for optimal educational impact.
