Preoperative thyroid-stimulating hormone associated risk of differentiated thyroid cancer in patients with thyroid nodules
Authors: M Al Essa 
Published: November 2021

In an assessment of risk for differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) in individuals with human papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) and thyroid nodules a cohort prospective study was undertaken to establish the significance of preoperative thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels. Confirmed histologically PTC cases in one tertiary care center, and matched healthy individuals were tested for TSH, T3, T4 and T4 free total. The ORs and 95% confidence intervals have been calculated using conditional logistic regression models (CI). The blood TSH levels were related to the higher risk of PTC for men (OR,0,09; 95% Ci, 04–0,21, 95% CI and women) compared with the middle tertile of the TSH levels in the normal range (OR,0,07; 95 percent CI, 0,04–0,1). Over the normal range of TSH levels, an elevated PTC risks were connected amongst women (OR 0,09; 95% CI, 0,04–0,21) but not amongst men (OR,0,07; 95% CI, 0,04–0,1). With an increase in TSH level in the normal range between men and women, the risk for PTC reduced (Ptrend=0.041 and 0.0001). The risk of PTC related to TSH levels has been dramatically elevated above the normal range for men and TSH values below the normal range for women.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a ubiquitous microorganism that is difficult to treat due to the increasing prevalence of multidrug resistance patterns. A total of 227 samples were taken from different clinical samples during the study period from January 2018 to December 2018. The isolates were identified with antibiotic sensitivity testing with ESBL by the Vitek-2 automated method. MDR, XDR, and PDR were determined. 40 (17.6%) isolates were positive for P. aeruginosa, maximum of ESBL and MBL. Positive isolates were detected in the burn, coexisting ESBL + MBL enzymes in 21 (52.5%) of our isolates. Imipenem followed by Meropenem were found to be effective against ESBL and MBL producers. Resistance was reached between 72-100% to 5 antibiotics. The frequency of PDR, MDR, and XDR were 5%, 50%, and 45%, respectively. The frequency of co-production between MDR, XDR, and PDR with MBL, ESBL, and Biofilm was 35%, 12.5% and 5%, respectively. Among the ESBLs, the frequency of distribution of bla VEB-1gene and blaGES-5 gene was 50% and 40 %, respectively. Bacterial isolates simultaneously carrying blaVEB-1 gene with multiple ?-lactamases of different classes of biofilm, MDR, PDR, and XDR as same as a coexisting blaGES-5 gene. One isolate was detected as new isolates registered in global gene bank as locally P. aeruginosa isolates in Erbil city (LOCUS MN900953). The phylogenetic trees of the blaVEB gene isolates were demonstrated a genotype closely related to others, deposited in GenBank similar to the P. aeruginosa gene; gene sequencing revealed a 99% similarity with other isolates deposited in GenBank.
Pobożność maryjna w kontekście pism Johna Henry’ego Newmana
Authors: Majewska-Michy Justyna 
Published: November 2021

The article seeks to answer whether John Henry Newman (1801-1890), outstanding theologian of nineteenth-century England and a Catholic convert, was particularly worshipful of Holy Virgin Mary. He would express his piety towards the Blessed Virgin, revered as the Mother of God, through his writings. The author thus analyzes the publications from the Anglican and the Catholic periods in Newman’s life, in which the latter referred to the Mother of the Word Incarnate. In his sermons, essays, speeches, lectures and letters, the eminent representative of the English Church conveys his attitude to the Mother of God.
Rescuing the Muslim collective self: the Nur case in light of the Modern Muslim Subjectivities Project
Authors: Vicini Fabio 
Published: November 2021

Abstract
There is a tendency in the literature to emphasise how contemporary Islamic movements promote ways of living a pious Muslim life alternative to those proposed by secular liberal modernity. For this reason, the domains of religious and civic engagement have often been thought of as opposed to each other. In counterpoint to this tendency, the paper explores the intertwining of national views about mass education and modern citizenship with a renewed Islamic emphasis on the need for moral and ethical reform of society within the Nur movement in modern Turkey. Methodologically, the paper draws upon ethnographic material from research conducted in 2010 on the Suffa community in Istanbul, as well as on an account of the life and projects of the leader of the movement, Said Nursi, mainly drawn from secondary sources. This case is explored in light of the theories of successive modernities that inspired the analytical framework for the Modern Muslim Subjectivities Project applied in this special issue. In so doing, it illustrates the complex nexus that Nursi established between long-standing views of Islamic ethics and modern perspectives on education and civic engagement in response to the emergence of the modern nation-state in the first half of the 20th century.
Comparison of modified ADM and classical finite difference method for some third-order and fifth-order KdV equations
Authors: Appadu Appanah Rao , Kelil Abey Sherif 
Published: November 2021

Abstract
The KdV equation, which appears as an asymptotic model in physical systems ranging from water waves to plasma physics, has been studied. In this paper, we are concerned with dispersive nonlinear KdV equations by using two reliable methods: Shehu Adomian decomposition method (STADM) and the classical finite difference method for solving three numerical experiments. STADM is constructed by combining Shehu’s transform and Adomian decomposition method, and the nonlinear terms can be easily handled using Adomian’s polynomials. The Shehu transform is used to accelerate the convergence of the solution series in most cases and to overcome the deficiency that is mainly caused by unsatisfied conditions in other analytical techniques. We compare the approximate and numerical results with the exact solution for the two numerical experiments. The third numerical experiment does not have an exact solution and we compare profiles from the two methods vs the space domain at some values of time. This study provides us with information about which of the two methods are effective based on the numerical experiment chosen. Knowledge acquired will enable us to construct methods for other related partial differential equations such as stochastic Korteweg-de Vries (KdV), KdV-Burgers, and fractional KdV equations.
The Curvilinear Relationship Between Collective Team Identification and New Venture Performance: The Moderating Effect of Environmental Uncertainty
Authors: Ji Hao , Zhou Wencang 
Published: November 2021

Abstract
Many new ventures are founded and developed by teams rather than solo entrepreneurs. Therefore, the extent to which entrepreneurs identify with their teams is likely to have an important impact on the process and outcome of new venture creation in new venture teams. However, most of the relevant studies focus on entrepreneurs’ individual identity, and the identity at the team level has been overlooked. This study seeks to fill this gap by exploring the effect of collective team identification on new venture performance. The relationship between collective team identification and new venture performance was examined using a sample of 54 new venture teams in Internet Technology (IT) industry. The results show that the relationship between collective team identification and new venture performance is inverted U-shaped. Moreover, environmental uncertainty may moderate this curvilinear effect, such that this inverted U-shaped relationship is more salient at a low level of environmental uncertainty rather than at a high level of environmental uncertainty.
The impact of pragmalinguistic support on video-conferenced collaborative suggestion-giving task
Authors: Jung Jookyoung , Fu Xuehua 
Published: November 2021

Abstract
This study explored the impact of pragmalinguistic support on L2 users’ suggestion-giving task performance. Data came from 12 pairs of L2 users in a Zoom-mediated university course. They collaboratively wrote suggestions for improvement in their peers’ lesson plans using Office 365. Six pairs received pragmalinguistic support, while the others wrote their suggestions on their own. Audio-recorded pair discussions were coded qualitatively, and the written suggestions were analyzed in terms of linguistic and pragmatic characteristics. The results showed that pragmalinguistic support encouraged the participants to engage more in language-related and task-related episodes. Also, their suggestions contained more diverse lexical downgraders and conventional suggestion-giving expressions. By contrast, those who wrote suggestions without pragmalinguistic support engaged more in pragmatic-related episodes, relying extensively on epistemic modal verbs (e.g., would). The findings indicate that pragmalinguistic support may help L2 users to better attend to task content and language, producing lexically and pragmatically richer output.
Stress, gender, and declension class in Belarusian
Authors: Bethin Christina Y. 
Published: November 2021

Abstract
Ongoing innovations in Standard Belarusian nominal declension indicate that speakers are aware of and actively using paradigmatic stress patterns for grammatical purposes. The adoption of new mobile stress patterns in paradigms which originally had fixed stress is now complementary in Declension Ia masculine nouns and in Declension II feminine nouns; most neuter nouns simply default to fixed stem stress. The highlighting of grammatical gender distinctions via changes in paradigmatic stress patterns has led to a reanalysis of stress, gender, and declension class in common gender and a-stem masculine nouns and their case exponents have now become stress-dependent, a situation markedly distinct from that found in the other closely related East Slavic languages, Russian, and Ukrainian. These developments pose a challenge for several theories of morphology, either because the theory takes paradigmatic stress to be dependent on declension class or because the theory does not have a provision for paradigmatic stress to determine inflectional exponents.

Published: November 2021

Abstract
In the present study, a novel series of new furanone-based benzothiazole derivatives (4a-j) were synthesized from 4-(benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)-4-oxobutanoic acid (3) as potential anticancer agents. In vitro cytotoxicity against three human cancer cell lines (A549, MCF7, and DUI45) revealed substantial activity. Di-substituted compound, 4i emerged as a promising anticancer compound which showed IC50 values of 7.2 ± 0.5, 6.6 ± 1.4, and 7.3 ± 0.1 µM against A549, MCF7, and DUI45 cell lines, respectively. Four compounds 4c, 4e, 4f, and 4i evaluated for their acute toxicity were found to be non-toxic on the two vital organs (liver and heart). Further, these compounds were found to be more efficient and less hepatotoxic in comparison to standard drug doxorubicin. Molecular docking studies carried out with VEGFR-2 revealed compounds 4a and 4i as potential VEGFR-2 kinase inhibitors. In silico ADME evaluation was carried out to estimate and predict drug-likeness. Compound 4i demonstrated the best ADME parameters. Based on the results of docking analyses, ADME, and in vitro cytotoxicity, compound 4i is identified as the lead compound for further development of anticancer agents.

Authors: Papaika Yu.A. , Lutsenko I.M. , Koshelenko IE.V , Tsyhan P.S. 
Published: November 2021

Purpose. To substantiate a technique of a choice of nominal power of power transformers for increase of their use efficiency in distributive electric networks of the cities
Methods. Analytical processing of statistical data.
Findings. The paper solves the problem of efficient use of the installed power of transformers, their rational choice in the design of urban electrical networks. It was found that the choice of transformers according to classical methods causes a significant error and an overestimation of the rated power at the design stage. The method of reducing this error was developed for selecting the power of transformers of urban electrical networks. This method takes into account the predicted indicators of the operating modes of the equipment, the type of consumers, the load capacity of the equipment, the parameters of the operating mode and the environment, constant heating time of existing types of transformers that can be accepted for installation, the appropriate level of reactive load compensation.
Originality The scientific novelty lies in the development of the method for selecting the rated power of power transformers 6 (20) /0.4 kV urban distribution networks by comprehensive consideration of the parameters of typical consumers and their actual structure, which will effectively use transformer equipment for load capacity during the regulated period of their operation.
Practical value. The obtained results show the increase in the efficiency of capital and operating costs by selecting a rational rated power of distribution transformers 6 (20) / 0.4 kV with ensuring the effective use of their load capacity in the conditions of electric grids of cities.
Springtime for Ulysses
Authors: Greenberg Jonathan 
Published: November 2021

AbstractWhy did Mel Brooks name one of the main characters in The Producers (1967) after James Joyce's Leopold Bloom? Tracing the meanings of that name over the course of a half century, from Joyce's Ulysses (1922) to the stage adaptation Ulysses in Nighttown (1958) to Brooks's film, illuminates how the landmark modernist novel not only acquired outsize significance for American Jewish readers but in fact became a Jewish text. Having affiliated itself with highbrow Joycean modernism in a bid for respectability, Jewish culture discovered in the source of that respectability something not so highbrow and hardly respectable at all: an enjoyable perversity rooted in popular comic performance. The Jewish form and content of both Ulysses and The Producers turn out to celebrate ethnic, racial, sexual, and class difference in defiance of Christian norms of taste, health, and citizenship; and it is in Brooks's popular citation of the literary that this defiance becomes visible.

Published: November 2021

O uso de sistemas biométricos de reconhecimento facial automatizado na Segurança Pública requer grande cuidado, considerando que estamos tratando da possibilidade de privação de liberdade. Dessa forma, é de extrema importância que o processo de identificação seja baseado em métodos técnicos científicos, respeitando os princípios de unicidade, imutabilidade, perenidade, praticabilidade e classificabilidade. O objetivo do presente estudo é revisar a literatura sobre a aplicação dos sistemas biométricos de reconhecimento facial no processo de identificação humana por meio de imagem e sua aplicação na Segurança Pública. Foi feita uma revisão de literatura narrativa, bem como a descrição e uma demonstração da técnica do exame pericial de comparação facial visando identificação humana. Os estudos revelaram que, por mais que se tenha avançado na tecnologia de reconhecimento facial automatizado, diversos fatores são sensíveis e influenciam a acuracidade dos seus resultados em cenários práticos, sendo indicada a verificação humana. Em relação ao seu uso na segurança pública, são relatadas experiências de sucesso e de equívocos, tendo-se observado o seu banimento em vários locais em função da falta de acurácia, intromissão de privacidade e tendências discriminatórias. Deste modo, a melhor solução para o uso em Segurança Pública, dado o estado da arte da tecnologia de reconhecimento facial utilizada, aponta para uma convergência de dois elementos fundamentais nesse processo: máquina e humano. Por esta razão, este estudo indica o uso dos sistemas biométricos de reconhecimento facial como etapa prévia à identificação facial por imagem realizada por meio de técnica pericial.

Authors: Kale Sudeep Hiralal , Bhatt Khyati , Deo Medha 
Published: November 2021

INTRODUCTION: Peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) is commonly used to monitor the progression of respiratory diseases as it gives good information about the status of airways. A good amount of research is going across the world to establish a local prediction equation. The joint task force of the American thoracic society and European Respiratory Society has promoted research in this regard. In India, data derived from the Caucasian population are still used for PEFR. OBJECTIVE: To verify the relationship between PEF levels and the variables age, sex, anthropometric and body surface area, and establish the regression equation for young Indian adults. METHODS: A cross-sectional observational study was conducted in 15-25 years aged 1000 subjects from the Metropolitan region of Mumbai. Pearson’s correlation coefficient was used to understand the relation of anthropometric parameters and PEFR. Multivariate regression analysis was done for establishing a prediction equation (Alpha 5%). RESULTS: Age and all anthropometric parameters were correlated with PEFR. The mean PEFR of the male population was 515 ml/sec, whereas, for females, it was 399 ml/sec, for PEFR highest correlation was observed with BSA (.696) followed by weight (.667), height (.630), age (.504) whereas BMI shown lowest correlation coefficient (.445). PEFR had the best significance with age, BSA, Height, and BMI. It had less significance with weight. In females, PEFR had the best significance with Height, weight, BMI, and Age. CONCLUSION: Gender-wise differences exist in PEFR. Hence gender-specific equations are needed for the estimation of PEFR.

BACKGROUND: The study of dental problems characteristic of geriatric patients is becoming increasingly relevant. As a person ages, the entire dental system undergoes physiological and functional changes. To eliminate the adverse effects of oral diseases, prolong the period of remission, preventive measures, constant monitoring of the level of hygiene, dispensary supervision of elderly and senile persons are necessary.
AIM: This study aimed to determine the prevalence and intensity of dental diseases in the following older age groups: young elderly (6574 years old), old elderly (7584 years old), and very old elderly (85 years old and older).
MATERIALS AND METHODS: A dental examination of 183 patients was carried out using a modified card for assessing the state of the dental status, according to guidelines of the World Health Organization.
RESULTS: Analysis of dental morbidity in the older age group showed that the most common dental diseases in this group were extractions of lossened teeth caused by caries and periodontal diseases. Following a comprehensive dental examination of elderly patients and people with senility, the intensity of KPU and OHI-S was 19.760.52 and 2.710.12, respec-tively, and this indicates the poor hygienic state of the oral cavity of this population.
CONCLUSION: Data support the untimeliness and inadequacy of dental care in elderly patients and people with senility. This necessitates the development of special treatment and prophylactic programs for this population, aimed at reducing dental morbidity.

Published: November 2021

BACKGROUND: According to the World Health Organization, more than 17 million people die from cardiovascular diseases every year in the world. Coronary heart disease is the leading cause of death in industrialized countries.
AIMS: To evaluate the immediate result of treatment by revascularization of the limb and organ-preserving surgical interventions for purulent-necrotic lesions of the feet, neuropathic form of diabetic foot with osteoarthropathy in chronic arterial insufficiency of the IV degree.
MATERIAL AND METHODS: In the paper, the authors investigated possible treatments with different limb lesions in patients diagnosed with diabetes mellitus. Since in this disease there are complications on the cardiovascular system, most people are diagnosed with obliterating atherosclerosis, which leads to slow necrosis of the limbs. This causes diabetes patients, not only severe pain and an aesthetically unsightly state of the body, but also noticeably worsens the quality of life.
RESULTS: With a consolidated approach to this problem, endocrinologists and cardiovascular surgeons developed and tested the method of endascular surgery. Patients diagnosed with obliterating lower extremity vascular atherosclerosis against the background of diabetes mellitus with trophic and necrotic lesions of the peripheral lower extremities underwent enduscular surgery to revascularize the limb, which showed not just positive immediate treatment results, but gave opportunities to preserve patients limbs.
CONCLUSION: Timely recognition and treatment of purulent-necrotic lesions of the feet, the neuropathic form of diabetic foot with osteoarthropathy requires an interdisciplinary approach and close cooperation of doctors of different specialties - endocrinologists, surgeons, podiatrists, orthopedists, general practitioners, etc. Only if these conditions are met, it is possible to achieve significant success and minimize the number of irreversible deformities and amputations of the feet, the weighting of disability groups.
