Introduction. Today, resection margins are assessed in different ways, but in clinical practice, preference is given to the histological method with macro- and microscopic examination of the margins. Assessment of resection margins can be carried out not only during planned histological examination, but also during intraoperative examination.Aim. To evaluate the feasibility of intraoperative assessment of resection margins when performing organ-preserving operations in patients with primary resectable breast cancer.Materials and methods. A retrospective study analyzed data from patients with early breast cancer who underwent surgical treatment at the Blokhin National Medical Research Center of Oncology of the Ministry of Health of Russia from June 2020 to May 2022. All patients underwent mammary gland resection with or without intraoperative marginal GI of resection, with sentinel lymph node determination or regional lymphadenectomy at the first stage. Patients included in the final analysis were divided into 2 groups: the study group consisted of patients who underwent intraoperative marginal GI of resection, and the control group consisted of patients who did not undergo intraoperative marginal GI of resection. Marginal GI of resection is performed by a pathologist by measuring the distance from the tumor node to the resection margins on a macropreparation. Frozen sections were always stained with hematoxylin and eosin.Results. The 451 patients with early forms of breast cancer included in the final analysis and subjected to breast resection at the first stage were divided into 2 main groups: the study group consisted of patients (n = 310) who underwent intraoperative microscopic histological assessment of resection margins, and the control group included patients (n = 141) who did not undergo intraoperative assessment of resection margins. During intraoperative histological assessment of resection margins, patients with positive resection margins were most often observed with invasive cancer – 20.3 versus 3.9 % with intraductal cancer.Conclusion. Further research is needed to determine the factors influencing the increase in the incidence of positive resection margins and their impact on patient survival rates.

Published: December 2024

Abstract
On-site warnings can decrease the range of late alert zone during earthquakes. This study develops a deep learning model to predict whether the maximum peak ground acceleration at a station exceeds 25 Gal based on the waveform of the initial P-wave. A ResNet architecture model is developed to address the degradation problem in multilayered models, thereby enhancing performance. The model exhibits high performance for a test dataset, achieving F1-scores higher than 90% over various time windows, and outperforms the traditional progressive displacement value (Pdv) method and newer convolutional neural network (CNN) methods. Ground motion of two actual earthquakes are applied to test the model and validate its prediction capabilities, and the results indicate that the proposed model has higher accuracy and speed than Pdv and CNN methods. In addition, the model is integrated with the Earthworm earthquake early warning system for real-time waveform analysis and prediction, extending the model’s applicability beyond experimental stages to online systems. The proposed method is also tested using data from earthquakes that occurred in March 2023.

Published: December 2024

Adhesives are integral to modern restorative dentistry for enhanced functional and esthetic outcomes. The use of lasers for improved bonding is on the rise and there is a need to understand the effect of lasers on adhesives. The study aims to evaluate the effect of diode laser irradiation on one-step self-etch adhesive before their polymerization on the shear bond strength between resin cement and dentin. Thirty extracted human teeth were collected and the buccal surface was grounded till dentin was exposed. A window of 3mm x 3mm was made on all the specimens that served as test sites and were randomly allocated to three groups (n = 10); Group 1: G-Premio bond without laser irradiation followed by photopolymerization; Group 2: G-Premio bond with laser irradiation without photopolymerization, and Group 3: G-Premio bond with laser irradiation followed by photopolymerization. The Shear Bond Strength (SBS) was determined using a Universal Testing Machine. One-way ANOVA followed by post hoc Tukey test was used with a level of significance at P ≤ 0.05. SBS was significantly highest among Group 3 followed by Group 1 and the least SBS was found in Group 2 (P &#60; 0.001). A post hoc test revealed significant differences between all three groups (P &#60; 0.001). G-Premio bond irradiated with a diode laser followed by photo-polymerization exhibited the highest SBS.

Published: December 2024

: A fundamental requirement for successful endodontic treatment is understanding the tooth's root canal anatomy. The pulp chamber represents the most intricate part of the tooth. Effective treatment depends on accurately diagnosing and identifying all canals, performing thorough cleaning and shaping, and completing a three-dimensional (3D) filling while preserving the natural structure of the root canal system.: A 35-year-old male patient presented with apical periodontitis in relation to maxillary first molar. Radiographic examination revealed widening of periodontal ligament. Following local anaesthesia via PSA nerve block and infiltration, rubber dam isolation was done. An access cavity was created, and upon locating the canal orifices, an additional, separate palatal canal was identified. Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) was advised to confirm. Using a microscope, the MB2 orifice was carefully exposed by troughing along the groove between the MB1 and palatal canals with long-shank burs and a DG-16 explorer. All five canals were meticulously cleaned and shaped with NiTi rotary files, followed by 3D obturation. The significance of identifying anatomical changes, such as the extra-palatal canal in maxillary first molars with MB2, is highlighted in this case report. Endodontic results are improved by successful management using precise procedures and modern imaging, highlighting the importance of careful evaluation in complex cases.
Optimizing nutritional strategies to enhance metabolism and physiotherapy outcomes: A comprehensive review
Authors: Kauser Mohammed Sheeba 
Published: December 2024

The integration of nutritional strategies into physiotherapy has gained significant attention as a means to enhance patient outcomes by improving metabolic health and recovery. This review aims to synthesize current research on how nutrition can be optimized to support metabolic processes and complement physiotherapy practices, ultimately leading to better functional and rehabilitative outcomes.Nutrition plays a crucial role in regulating metabolic rate and energy balance. Key macronutrients—proteins, carbohydrates, and fats—each contribute differently to metabolic processes, influencing muscle synthesis, energy availability, and overall metabolic rate. A key focus of this review is the interplay between nutrition and exercise in the context of physiotherapy. Nutritional strategies that align with exercise regimens can significantly boost rehabilitation efforts. We explore how nutrient timing, hydration, and dietary adjustments can be tailored to support exercise goals and enhance the efficacy of physiotherapy treatments.Translating nutritional science into clinical practice involves developing actionable guidelines for integrating dietary recommendations with physiotherapy. This section provides practical advice for healthcare professionals on how to incorporate nutritional assessments and interventions into physiotherapy plans. We highlight successful case studies and propose strategies for personalized nutrition plans that complement individual physiotherapy goals.Despite advancements, there are still gaps in understanding the full impact of nutrition on physiotherapy outcomes. We identify areas where further research is needed, including longitudinal studies and trials that investigate long-term effects of nutritional interventions on metabolic health and rehabilitation. Future research directions aim to refine dietary recommendations and enhance evidence-based practices.Optimizing nutritional strategies can significantly enhance metabolism and improve the effectiveness of physiotherapy. This review underscores the importance of a holistic approach that combines nutritional and physical therapies to achieve superior patient outcomes. By integrating comprehensive dietary strategies with physiotherapy practices, healthcare providers can offer more effective, personalized care to support recovery and overall health.
"The Faroe Islands handle this themselves”: The convergence of bodily and national autonomy in abortion rights discussions
Authors: Nolsøe Turið , Hermannsdóttir Turið 
Published: December 2024

Faroese abortion legislation is subject to CEDAW’s (Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women) regular reports and has in the last two decades faced criticism for its failure to secure sufficient abortion rights. In this article we analyse international deliberation of the Faroese abortion legislation, where national autonomy as an ideal seemingly outweighs the right to bodily autonomy as a human right. Conducting a concept-oriented critique of how abortion rights are discussed in the convergence of these discourses of autonomy, we emphasise the limitations of arguing for bodily autonomy in relation to abortion rights as a human right. But we also argue that the rhetorical performance of statehood should be scrutinised when it reflects a problematic conception of the right to self-government where national statehood trumps reproductive citizenship. Rather than deliberating the circumstances under which reproductive rights are managed in the Faroe Islands, international attention to the Faroese case becomes an opportunity to underscore that “the Faroe Islands handle this themselves". This article sheds light on both the foundation underpinning a human rights perspective on abortion rights and on the Faroese situation.

Authors: Wicaksana Firman , Hartanti Dwi , Hamad Alwani 
Published: December 2024

Background: Yacon (Smallanthus sonchifolius (Poepp.) H.Rob.) leaves show promising antioxidant properties, and have traditionally been used for diabetes management in Baturraden, Banyumas, Central Java, Indonesia. This study evaluated the effects of traditional extraction methods and crude drug-to-solvent ratios on the content and activity of antioxidants and physicochemical properties of yacon leaf water extracts during storage. Methods: Crude drugs were extracted by infusion, short-time decoction, and longer-time decoction at ratios of 1:10, 1:20, and 1:100 (w/v). Antioxidant content was analyzed using standard total flavonoid content (TFC) and total phenolic content (TPC). The antioxidant activity was evaluated using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) scavenging activity and ferric-reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) assays. Yacon leaf water extracts at a ratio of 1:20 (w/v) were stored in tightly closed bottles at 4±2°C for 26 days. The organoleptic characteristics, color, pH, TFC, TPC, and DPPH scavenging activity were evaluated on days 0,1, 3, 6, 12, 18, and 26. Results: The different methods and crude drug-to-water ratios generated different antioxidant activities and contents of the yacon extracts. Yacon leaf decoction for 15 min in a ratio of 1:20 (w/v) produced extract with the best scavenging activity (450.27±5.48 mM Trolox equivalent (TE)/100 g dry weight (DW)), TFC (6.43±0.18 mg Quercetin equivalent (QE)/g DW), and TPC (3.91±0.04 mg gallic acid equivalent (GAE)/g DW). The yacon leaf decoction started to undergo aroma and PH changes on days 3 and 6, respectively. On day 12, the TFC, TPC, and DPPH SA of yacon leaf decoction remained 93.93±3.70, 96.52±1.81, and 89.99±0.91% of the freshly prepared extract, respectively. Conclusion: Our results suggest that extraction using the decoction method for 15 min at a water-to-crude drug ratio of 1:20 (w/v) generated an extract with the best antioxidant profile, which chemically started to change on day 12 during refrigerated storage.

Published: December 2024

The advisory bibliographic resource (ABR) is one of reliable ways of transiting experience, knowledge and skills from one generation to another. The question about bibliographic resources, satisfying needs in educational and self-educational reading, though being in elaboration for a long time, has not been solved finally yet. It is supposed, that any purposeful activity, realized by means of books and going out the frames of educational establishments, makes up the essence of self-educational activity, with ABR being the foothold for it. ABR, aimed at informal education of readers should be of special importance.The purpose of the article is to present the results of the study on the development and evaluation of the effectiveness of ABR, created according to the modern model. Science and society communication models that influenced the creation of modern ABR are briefly characterized, and a double-sided model of their creation is proposed. The comparative analysis of the current (one-sided) and new model of ABR creation has been conducted. The results of the pedagogical experiment on evaluating the effectiveness of ABR, created according to the double-sided model and affecting the established areas of communication between science and society (education, understanding, participation) are presented. During the experiment, conducted using the questionnaire method, it has been stated that handling of ABR, created for to disseminate scientific knowledge according to the double-sided model, contributes to an increase in the level of readers’ awareness.

Authors: Panchenko A. M. 
Published: December 2024

The purpose of the article is to present the joint work of the Highest Approved Standing Commission for the Organization of Public Readings and the General Staff on recommendation of publications recognized as relevant to the goals of primary education and moral training of lower ranks. The interaction of these structures was traced from the moment of receiving publications by the Military Scientific Committee of the General Staff up to sending to the Permanent Commission circulars with concrete indication of publications recommended and admitted to the troops. The identified interaction algorithm, in addition to the named initial and final stages, included the following sequence of actions: the selection of necessary publications; payment of invoices for selected publications; approval of editions by the General Staff; their recommendation to circulation in the troops through the circulars. The recommended publications in each circular of the General Staff and their total number were counted. Catalogs of books in soldiers’ libraries were analyzed for presence of publications recommended by circulars. When correlated with each other: 1) lists of publications of the Standing Commission and their availability in the circulars of the General Staff; 2) lists of recommended publications and their presence in the soldiers’ libraries catalogs of books made it possible to identify the results of the joint work. The study is of great practical importance, since the experience of interaction between the General Staff and the Standing Commission can be useful today for cooperation of the military department with institutions and organizations of other departments.

Authors: Červenková Andrea , Košťúr Roman , Danielik Vladimír 
Published: December 2024

Abstract

Phase change materials are assumed to be a promising way of a storage of the low-potential heat. In the paper, the corrosion behaviour of carbon steel, CuZn37 brass and aluminium was studied in the assumed phase change medium at 50°C and 60°C. The medium was a eutectic mixture of 26.09 wt% water, 63.34 wt% calcium nitrate, 10.57 wt% potassium nitrate with fusion temperature of 37.85°C. Corrosion rate was studied via mass loss and the steel specimens were analysed after the study. It was found that even though the corrosion rate of carbon steel and aluminium is small (4.26 mg cm-2 year-1 and 1.19 mg cm-2 year-1, respectively, at 50°C), the metals are susceptible to pitting corrosion. Brass has the lowest corrosion rate from the studied metals (0.88 mg cm-2 year-1 at 50°C); however, it is a subject of selective corrosion with zinc preferentially dissolved. None of the metals studied is suitable for the use in the phase change materials.
Evaluating the Transferability of Adversarial Robustness to Target Domains

Published: December 2024

Abstract

Knowledge transfer is an effective method for learning, particularly useful when labeled data is limited or when training a model from scratch is too expensive. Most of the research on transfer learning focuses on achieving \emph{accurate} models, overlooking the crucial aspect of adversarial robustness. However, ensuring robustness is vital, especially when applying transfer learning in safety-critical domains.
We compare robustness of models obtained by 11 training procedures on source domains and 3 retraining schemes on target domains, including normal, adversarial, contrastive and Lipschitz constrained training variants. Robustness is analyzed by adversarial attacks with respect to two different transfer learning model outputs: (i) the latent representations and (ii) the predictions. Studying latent representations in correlation with predictions is crucial for robustness of transfer learning models, since they are solely learned on the source domain.
Besides adversarial attacks that aim at changing the prediction, we also analyze the effect of directly attacking representations.
Our results show that adversarial robustness can transfer across domains, but effective robust transfer learning requires techniques that ensure robustness independent of the training data to preserve them during the transfer.
Retraining on the target domain has a minor impact on the robustness of the target model.
Representations exhibit greater robustness compared to predictions across both the source and target domain.
