Показано, що системи розпізнавання надзвичайних подій виявляють різні типи невизначеності: неповні потоки даних, помилки в потоках даних і невідповідні шаблони складних подій. Показано, що потоки подій, що потрапляють на вхід системи розпізнавання складних подій, характеризуються певним ступенем невизначеності. Джерела даних є неоднорідними і характеризуються різною структуризацією даних і відповідними процедурами реагування на пошкоджені блоки даних. Навіть для даних, визначених достатньо точно, система може некоректно моделювати складні події, що призводить до подальшого типу невизначеності. Отже, зазначено, що важливо розглянути методи розпізнавання складних подій, які можна віднести до невизначених. З цією метою було запропоновано відповідні модельні об'єкти. Проведений аналіз ключових моментів побудови систем розпізнавання складних подій, які здатні ефективно працювати в умовах невизначеності, охоплював методи стохастичного моделювання, моделі часового представлення та реляційні моделі. Розглянуто методики, що базуються на абстрактних автоматах, імовірнісних моделях графів, системах логіки першого порядку, мережах Петрі та прихованих мережах Петрі. Зазначено, що проміжним етапом роботи відповідних алгоритмів має бути створення ієрархії складних об'єктів, що не завжди піддаються чіткому визначенню. Виявлено низку обмежень щодо використовуваного синтаксису, моделей і ефективності, які були зіставлені з конкретними варіантами їх реалізації. Запропоновано підхід щодо переходу від детерміністичного математичного апарату до системи розпізнавання складних подій в умовах невизначеності, через введення функції вірогідності події. Розроблена методологія дала змогу виділити напрями досліджень і оцінити продуктивність використовуваних математичних методів.

Наведено коротку характеристику гіркокаштана звичайного та досліджено історію створення насадження за участю інтродуцента у Зіболківському лісництві ДП "Жовківське лісове господарство" на початку ХХ ст. Визначено особливості росту досліджуваної породи. Встановлено, що у віці 95 років дерева гіркокаштана звичайного досягають середньої висоти 19,5 м та середнього діаметра 44,3 см. Вивчено процеси природного поновлення інтродуцента та досліджено основні чинники, що впливають на формування підросту. Зроблено порівняльний аналіз природного поновлення гіркокаштана звичайного та клена-явора під наметом деревостану інтродуцента. Встановлено, що самосів гіркокаштана відстає в рості, кількості та життєвості і, перебуваючи в умовах надмірного затінення, "випадає" із підросту до 8-річного віку. Проведені дослідження свідчать, що гіркокаштан звичайний в умовах вологої грабово-соснової судіброви Малого Полісся України досяг найвищого рівня акліматизації – натуралізації, що підтверджує здатність виду до природного поновлення. Розпочаті дослідження мають на меті встановлення перспектив використання породи у лісокультурному виробництві регіону, визначення ступеня натуралізації виду та агресивності його поведінки щодо автохтонних деревних видів рослин у корінних типах лісу.
¿Por qué Chile? Un análisis post crítico sobre los discursos de escala en la movilidad académica internacional

La movilidad académica internacional es parte de una trama de políticas de internacionalización que producen diferencia entre lo global y lo local, definiendo lo que se consideran buenas prácticas en la pedagogía y en la gestión universitarias. Está basada en imaginarios espaciales fijos acerca de la globalización, de las fronteras, de las naciones y de los movimientos. De la misma manera, fundamentada en prácticas de mercado que utilizan estrategias empresariales para clasificar y jerarquizar, la internacionalización produce lugares de excelencia y sostiene una cartografía epistemológica asimétrica.

Delayed Treatment of Spinal Cord Injury In Young: A Case Report
Authors: Sutikno Joshua 
Published: May 2019

Background: Spinal cord injury (SCI), one of the problems caused by traffic accidents, has a high morbidity in developing country like Indonesia. In Indonesia, the use of motorcycles is increasing every year. The epidemiological data from Fatmawati Hospital of spinal cord injury in 2014 was 104 cases both traumatic and non-traumatic SCI. In this case, a young boy with worsening of SCI, delayed the treatment for about 3 months.Case: A 19 years-old male complained of limbs paralysis for the past two weeks. He felt numbness and tingling in hamstring and calf areas. From past medical history, he had a motorcycle accident 3 months prior. After the accident, he suffered from extreme low back pain, but he could still move his legs. Due to economic restrictions, the patient refused to go to the hospital, and they chose a traditional treatment. For about three months, the pain was decreasing, but he was never pain-free. As the symptoms continued to worsen, the neurosurgeon decided to decompress the spinal cord and performed discectomy. After a week of treatment, the pain disappeared, motor muscle got better, and he could feel again the sensation on the dermatome of S1. Conclusion: Early treatment is recommended to get a better outcome. The surgery is not the only treatment, rehabilitation and orthotics using are important too. Delayed treatment increases morbidity rate.
Surgery of Intramedullary Tumours
Authors: July Julius 
Published: May 2019

Surgery still offers a cure to the majority of intramedullary tumours. The challenge of the surgery is taking out the tumour while preserving the function. Very often the patient has a huge tumour with very minimal symptoms, such as mild numbness. The slow growth of the tumour nature provides enough time for the cord fibres to adapt accordingly. Usually, the motor function is preserved and most of the pathologies are benign. For this reasons, the majority of cases have good long-term tumour control. The functional outcome is depending on the preoperative functional state, especially for motor function. The patient should be educated prior to surgery, especially to anticipate the post-surgical rehabilitation period. The surgical technique should preserve the motor function, but the fine movement usually gets worst for several months after surgery and slowly recover within 6 months. We share our experience of 45 surgical cases with intramedullary tumour (14F;31M), the pathologies distributions are 20 ependymomas, 8 astrocytomas (1/8 anaplastic astrocytoma), 7 cavernomas, 8 hemangioblastomas, 1 glioblastoma multiforme, and 1 tuberculoma. The location distribution varied from 27 at the cervical cord, 11 thoracal, 4 thoracolumbal, and 3 MO-upper cervical. The surgical outcome for all cases experienced sensory changes and recovered over 6 months. Almost all cases experienced some degree of spasticity and fine movement difficulty and they are improving over 6 months. Motor strength is usually preserved. One case of GBM, improve gradually for the first two months then followed by the disease course regardless of the treatment. The tuberculoma case required one year to recover her neurological function with adequate treatment.
Attitudes of healthcare professionals towards self-management for patients with stroke
Authors: Taylor Ashleigh , Monsanto Xavier , Kilgour Hayden , Smith Catherine , Hale Leigh 
Published: May 2019

Self-management approaches towards stroke rehabilitation are gaining more attention due to emerging evidence of their impact on patient outcomes. This mixed methods study explored the attitudes of healthcare professionals (HCPs) towards stroke self-management. The Bridges Stroke Self-Management Programme (Bridges SSMP) training was delivered to 51 HCPs in New Zealand. Questionnaires were completed by consenting participants (n = 43) prior to administration of the Bridges SSMP training. In-depth, semi-structured interviews were conducted with three participants. The General Inductive Approach was used for thematic analysis of the qualitative data. The resulting overarching theme was “integrating the self-management concept into practice”, which encompasses organisational, contextual and individual factors that HCPs feel are challenges when applying self-management. Two contributors to this theme – “education” and “facilitating empowerment” – emerged as barriers or enablers, respectively, to putting self-management into practice. Questionnaire data showed HCPs were confident in their capability of self management concepts yet did not frequently use them in practice. Healthcare professionals were mostly positive about the concept of self-management but challenges and barriers were evident when applying this to practice. Hence, they may require a deeper understanding of the principles of self-management and become more familiar with the process by applying the principles of self-management in their own lives.
Nurse-led telephone review service for mild inherited bleeding disorders improves attendance rates, frees hospital resources and is highly rated by patients
Authors: Alavian Sharon , Hutchinson Wendy , Morris Abigail , Williams Heather , Pollard Debra

Abstract

Introduction and objective
In the UK, the National Service Specification for haemophilia stipulates that all patients with mild inherited bleeding disorders must be reviewed annually by their haemophilia centre. For those patients who rarely experience problems relating to their bleeding disorder, attending a yearly hospital-based appointment may be viewed as a low priority. This can result in missed appointments and disconnection from their haemophilia centre, leading to poor understanding of how to manage their condition in emergencies, or when surgical or other invasive procedures may be necessary. The inherited nature of these conditions also has implications for reproduction, and it is of vital importance that the risk of bleeding around labour, delivery and the neonatal period are fully understood and mitigated against. The introduction of a structured, nurse-led telephone clinics across the North London Adult Haemophilia Network (NLAHN) offered an alternative method for patients to be reviewed. This strategy was then evaluated to assess whether the needs of patients were being fulfilled.

Materials and methods
Clinical nurse specialists (CNS) from the NLAHN devised a short service evaluation questionnaire with Likert scales and one open question. Patients across the NLAHN sites who had received a telephone review in 2016 were sent an anonymised questionnaire, with a stamped addressed envelope and a six-week return date.

Results
514 questionnaires were distributed, 174 were returned, and 18 were excluded as returned incomplete, giving a return rate of 28%. Overall, 89% (139/156) of patients rated the new service between excellent and very good; 89% (139/156) reported that they were very satisfied with the information received in the review; and 95% (149/156) were happy to continue to receive telephone reviews.

Conclusion
Patients found the telephone reviews a viable alternative to traditional hospital-based appointments. The telephone clinics are more convenient for patients in terms of time and resources; they also helped those surveyed to re-engage with their haemophilia centre, ensuring continued education about their condition and the services offered. Overall attendance rates for the follow-up of patients with mild bleeding disorders have improved, with a reduction in traditional clinic appointments for this group. This has an ongoing positive impact on waiting lists and the financial burden of missed hospital appointments without impacting patient care.
Effects of top rope climbing therapy on joint health in adult haemophilia patients with severe arthropathies
Authors: Schroeder Courtney , Barnes Richard FW , Volland Lena , Nguyen Sonha , von Drygalski Annette 
Published: May 2019

Abstract

Background
Low impact physical activity is important for patients with haemophilic arthropathies, but is often considered boring with suboptimal adherence. There is therefore a need for physical activities that motivate patient engagement.

Aims
To evaluate the benefits of top rope climbing, increasingly used in other musculoskeletal disorders, as an engaging sports discipline in haemophilia.

Materials/Methods
Six adult arthropathic patients with haemophilia (PWH) completed 12 sessions of tailored top rope climbing training. Functional and clinical joint status, climbing skills, quality of life (QoL), annual bleed rate (ABR) and joint findings with musculoskeletal ultrasound/power doppler (MSKUS/PD) were assessed before and after climbing.

Results
Haemophilia joint health scores, dorsiflexion in arthropathic joints and climbing skills all improved. ABRs were comparable before and during climbing, and QoL remained high. MSKUS evaluation demonstrated no detrimental effects on synovial and cartilage health, with a decrease of inflammatory PD signal in some joints.

Conclusion
We conclude that top rope climbing therapy (“Haemophilia Vertical”) can improve joint health in PWH with arthropathies. Haemophilia Vertical therefore emerges as an innovative athletic concept to promote physical activity among PWH. Further study investigating the longer-term impact in a larger cohort is warranted.
Haemophilic arthropathy: a case of misdiagnosis
Authors: Grace Nakalyango Annette 
Published: May 2019

Abstract
This article describes a case of wrongly managed haemophilic arthropathy in a 15-year-old boy in Uganda. Delayed diagnosis of haemophilia and misdiagnosis of haemophilic arthropathy resulted in unnecessary corrective surgery and potentially severe complications. After haemophilia was diagnosed, he was managed by haematologists using factor VIII and regular physiotherapy. The physiotherapy treatment approach focused in particular on functional activities, which was beneficial in achieving quicker results and made the patient’s rehabilitation more meaningful. This case indicates that there is a need for greater awareness of the presentation of haemophilia in developing countries.
Aspects of relevance in the Romanian political discourse
Authors: Ene Ana 
Published: May 2019

This paper investigates political discourse from the perspective of relevance theory in relation to the function of reasonable persuasion oriented towards voters. The research’ objectives are to identify and to describe: 1) the mechanisms of persuasion used in election campaign speeches; 2) the meta-strategy of miming dialogue; 3) the manner in which political discourse infringes upon the principles of relevance. The accomplishment of the objectives requires a two-fold methodology: rhetorical and linguistic by means of instruments of lexical-semantic, pragma-stylistic and logical-argumentative analysis. The research is focused on political election campaigns speeches: slogans and speeches of the Romanian recent election campaigns.
The most frequently encountered discourse strategies are: i) the use of various types of fallacious reasoning and ii) vague language.
Dinamica în limbă
Authors: Biro Valentin Dragoș 
Published: May 2019

Limba este supusă unui proces de dublă definire: prin atributul sistemului de realitate statică, datorată inerției la schimbare, și prin caracterul de permanentă producere de acte de limbaj, prin vorbire. Sub presiunea nevoilor concrete de comunicare, o limbă se află într-o continuă dinamică ce asigură progresul sau regresul limbii, ambele aspecte, alături de modificările neutre, reprezentînd, în fapt, evoluția limbii. Articolul vine astfel cu o necesară delimitare conceptuală între evoluția și progresul limbii, pe de o parte, dar și între cauzele ce determină evoluția și evoluția în sine, ca proces.
Lingvistica a cunoscut abordări radical diferite asupra obiectului său de studiu, limbajul natural uman: perspectivele asupra limbii diferă de la rețeaua de relații care fac elementele ce compun o limbă sau alta să capete calitatea de sisteme, la produs al libertății și voinței umane, căci limba nu poate fi separată de libertatea vorbitorilor, sau la atenția acordată semnificațiilor, acestea fiind întotdeauna construite social, pe baza interacțiunilor dintre membrii unei comunități. Într-o atare diversitate a punctelor de vedere exprimate în care divergența domină convergența, articolul își propune în subsidiar să fixeze din perspectivă diacronică definirea lingvisticii ca însemnînd, în principal, istoria evoluțiilor pe care limbajul le-a cunoscut de la începuturile sale.

Published: May 2019

The purpose of this (mega) research project is to investigate the Raabaa Ritual and ritualization, one of the indigenous beliefs and Gada system practices in Oromo culture, among the Arsi Oromo. The Raabaa ritual is indigenous ritual practices which exercised by Arsi Oromo according to their Baalli. To this end, the researchers observed the ritual sites where the Raabaa ritual takes place. Besides, an interview with 13 key informants and 5 FGDs were conducted to collect wider data on the subject matter. Methodological the researchers’ were employee qualitative approach. The study found out that the Raabaa is being popular in the study area due to various reasons like: firstly, the practicing and living under the shade of Gadaa and belief in the ritual manifestation. The Arsi Oromo are believed to have possessed supernatural powers of empowering and performing various ritual rites to full fill necessary criteria’s while passing in the Gadaa system. Secondly, the belief that taking part in ritual ceremonies at all ritual sites of Raabaa is one method of getting relief from these worldly problems such as physical and psychological disordered and to have blessing life. The practices at the Raabaa ritual site also prove the tolerance that exists among some adherents of different religious, Baallis, hookaa and political backgrounds in the study area. According to our finding Raabaa ritual is used to increase awareness of the values of tolerance and understanding. The involvement of the local people, awareness levitation through community serves or education on ritual and ritualization of Raabaa, the practice of ritual and its sites protected areas should be encouraged to sustain and keep the practice.

In the early semester, every study program at faculty of economy required the student to take the introduction of accounting lectures. After taking the lecture the students are expected to be able to comprehend the basic concepts of accounting well. The financial reports material became one of the difficult material in the accounting lecture. Generally, the difficulty could be seen when the students were asked to shift the data from the worksheet to financial reports. It was because the students came from the different high school background. Therefore, it could be affect toward their comprehension of accounting. Because. Of that reason it was important to develop the material in form of module based problem solving, which can be used to help the students learn how to solve the problem that appears in their experience. This research was aimed to produce the valid module based problem solving.It used 4D module (four-D models). The development of four D consists of 4 phases. They are: 1) Define; 2) Design; 3) Develop; 4) Dessiminate. This development was only untill development phase while dessiminate phasewas not done. The subject of module based problem solving at introduction of accounting lectureswas the first year student of faculty of economy Medan state university. The criterion of the subject eksperimental was the condition of the student which was suitable with the researchers'need. The students haven't used the module based problem solving at the introduction of accounting lecture which is valid, practical, and effective. The module was valid to use because the result of the module validity development achieved 82.29% achievement level, and the module practicality achievement was 81.57%, and it could be categorized practical in learning process. The level of students activity achievement from four categories that was researched in learning process was 63.95%. It could be categorized as active students and module was categorized as an effective module. Therefore, the introductory accounting module based problem solving can be applied in learning process.
