This study was carried out with the intention of examining the role of the marketing mix on brand loyalty advertising and pricing play in building brand equity. The study focuses on a new cable brand (Belayab Cable) and attempts to find out the role of marketing mix elements on brand loyalty of Belayab Cable products. For this study, an accessible population of 62 Belayab Cable consumers who have used its products at least twice was selected randomly from stratified groups of three types of customers (Contractors, Traders, Electo Mechanical Engineers, and Government,). A structured questionnaire was used to collect data from respondents by using a self-administered data collection system. In addition to the questionnaire, semi-structured interview questions are prepared to get information from the organization which is analyzed qualitatively. The STATA is used to process the primary data which were collected through questionnaires. The findings showed that the role of product quality, price, and availability has a positive and significant role in brand loyalty. On the other hand, the price has no significant role in brand loyalty for the cable of a brand. Therefore, in order to maximize the effectiveness of marketing activities and have more loyal customers in cable industry companies should pay more attention to product quality, availability, and promotions.

Published: June 2020

Background: This study aimed to determine the outcome of surgical treatments in patients with degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM). During one-year follow-up period, we evaluated patient-reported functional and quality of life (QOL) measures.

Methods: In a retrospective single-center study, we collected data of patients with DCM who underwent cervical fusion surgeries in Imam Khomeini Hospital, Tehran, Iran, from 2011 to 2015. Patients underwent single or multi-level anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF), anterior cervical corpectomy and fusion (ACCF), or posterior laminectomy and fusion. We utilized patient-reported assessments including Short Form 36 (SF-36), Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Neck Disability Index (NDI), and Nurick grade. Follow-up was performed at 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months post-operatively to assess the outcome of surgery.

Results: Ninety patients (56 men, 34 women) with a mean age of 54.1 (27-87) years were included. Comparison of pre- and post-operative scores showed significant improvement in SF-36 parameters, VAS, NDI, and Nurick grade (P < 0.001). Also, women’s VAS scores improved more than men's VAS scores during the follow-up period (P < 0.050). Age and type of surgery did not significantly affect the SF-36 parameters, VAS, NDI, and Nurick grade (P > 0.05).

Conclusions: Cervical surgeries in patients with different severity of DCM can improve different aspects of QOL during one-year after surgery

Published: June 2020

Background: In different ways, drugs are administered to reduce postoperative analgesia after arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. The purpose of this study is to compare the dexmedetomidine (DEX) intra-articular injection with bupivacaine hydrochloride and sterile 0.9% saline administration following arthroscopic ACL reconstruction.

Methods: Sixty cases who underwent ACL reconstruction were randomly divided into three groups. The first group received intra-articular DEX; the second group received intra-articular bupivacaine, and the final group received intra-articular 0.9% saline. Postoperative pain was measured by Visual Analogue Scale (VAS).

Results: The mean VAS scores at 6 and 24 hours after surgery were lower in the bupivacaine group, compared to the other groups. Pain was more severe in the control group (0.9% saline), with higher VAS scores reported at 1, 6, and 24 hours after surgery.

Conclusions: Bupivacaine has more significant effects than DEX in postoperative pain management after arthroscopic ACL reconstruction.

A Data Mining Approach for Parameter Optimization in Weather Prediction
Authors: N Thushika , S Premaratne 
Published: June 2020

More than two decades, there is a number of weather-related websites are available which approximately predict the weather and climate. By extracting essential data from the websites, a predictive data pattern can be produced to show the next day’s weather is with rain or not. By applying different types of web mining and analyzing techniques those extracted weather-related data can be visualized to a typical pattern for weather forecasting with the main deciding factors of weather. With the use of these approaches, reasonably precise forecasts can be made up to about four to five days in advance. For the weather prediction analysis, we need to discover deciding factors of the next day’s weather. Particularly, common weather dependent factors and the relationship of the prediction to the particular phenomenon. The solution proposed by this research can be used to analyze a large amount of weather data which are in different forms in each source. By using predictive mining task our solution allows us to make predictions for future instances according to the model what we have created. Evaluation measurements for the selected data mining technique such as accuracy percentage, TP & FP Rate, Precision, F-Measure, ROC area, SSE, and loglikelihood for classification and clustering leads to create a high-quality model of prediction. Knowledge flow interface provides the data flow to show the processing and analyzing data with precise association rules. In order to evaluate the model, SSE values and time to build the model, are considered in an effective manner.

Existence of bioinformatics is to increase the further understanding of biological process. Proteins structure is one of the major challenges in structural bioinformatics. With former knowledge of the structure, the quality of secondary structure, prediction of tertiary structure, and prediction function of amino acid from its sequence increase significantly. Recently, the gap between sequence known and structure known proteins had increase dramatically. So it is compulsory to understand on proteins structure to overcome this problem so further functional analysis could be easier. The research applying RPCA algorithm to extract the essential features from the original high-dimensional input vectors. Then the process followed by experimenting SVM with RBF kernel. The proposed method obtains accuracy by 84.41% for training dataset and 89.09% for testing dataset. The result then compared with the same method but PCA was applied as the feature extraction. The prediction assessment is conducted by analyzing the accuracy and number of principal component selected. It shows that combination of RPCA and SVM produce a high quality classification of protein structure

Authors: Vinogradov V. L. , Gubarev K. K. , Zakhlevnyy A. I. , Svetlakova D. S. 
Published: June 2020

Rationale: The imbalance between the need for donor organs and their current availability is a growing problem for all countries. An assessment of potential donor numbers is considered to be an important step towards better understanding of the problem as a whole at the national scale. This would help to build up a concept of a successful strategy to resolve this inequity.Aim: To analyze the use of external audit of the efficacy of identification of potential organ donors with confirmed brain death.Materials and methods: As a part of a pilot project aimed to increase the efficacy of donor bases of the Russian Federal Medical Biological Agency (FMBA), we retrospectively analyzed 5932 medical files of patients who died from 2014 to 2018 in the departments of resuscitation and intensive care units of 26 medical establishments serving as a donor bases in Moscow, Orenburg, Saratov, Abakan, Stavropol and FMBA of Russia. The probability of brain death was assessed with a special QAPDD (Quality Assurance Program in the Deceased Donation Process) technique focused on organ donation after brain death which is used for external audit in Spanish hospitals.Results: Clinical manifestation of brain death were identified in 20.3% (95% confidence interval (CI) 18.4–22.4) of the patients aged 18 to 65 years with severe primary and secondary brain injury who died in the departments of resuscitation and had been maintained on mechanical ventilation at least 12 hours until their death was confirmed. The rate of potential donor identification with clinical manifestations of brain death in the donating in-patient departments was 12% (95% CI 10.5–13.7) of those who died with severe primary and secondary brain injury. The external audit performed in 26 donating in-patient departments, has shown that 41% (95% CI 35.8–46.4) of potential donors with brain death were not identified.Conclusion: With the use of the QAPDD technique in our study, we found that 41% of potential donors were not identified in the Russian in-patient clinics participating in organ donation. Based on the information obtained during the audit of medical files in intensive care units, we can make realistic conclusions on the current system of organ donation, identify potential pitfalls in the identification procedures of potential donors, increase the efficacy of donation process, and to improve the system as a whole. The process could become effective only through the activities of specially trained donor hospital transplant coordinators.
