Published: June 2019

The objective is to investigate the influence of stress on the clinical and pathogenetic peculiarities of the course of stable coronary heart disease (SIHD) in conjunction with atrial fibrillation (AF).
Materials and methods. The analysis of psychodiagnostic tests, labolatory and instrumental research methods in patients with and without AF has been performed. Patients were divided into three groups: group 1 – patients with stable ischemic heart disease (SIHD) with a constant form of AF (15 patients were examined), group 2 – patients with SIHD with paroxysmal form of AF (16 patients were examined), group 3 – patients with SIHD without AF (15 patients were examined).
Results. According to the analysis of the data obtained, low level of stress was found in 6 (37.50%) patients with a permanent form of AF, whereas in patients without AF, it was observed in 1 (6.67%) person (p1<0.05) (p1 – the reliability of the differences in indicators relative to patients without AF). Moderate somatic disorder in women with paroxysmal AF was significantly higher than in the group of patients with a constant form of AF (p2<0.05) (p2 – the reliability of the differences in the indicators relative to patients with a constant form of AF). It is confirmed in patients with AF there are signs of the average stress level on the perceived stress level-10 (p2<0.05). Among the social factors that may have an impact on health are the influence of the media, the use of alcohol by relatives, the threat of unemployment for relatives and friends. These indicators were most often found in the group of patients with AF rather than without it (p2<0.05). Changes of ECG and echocardiographic parameters in all groups of patients were revealed.
Conclusion. The association of stress with stable ischemic heart disease combined with atrial fibrillation has shown that stress disorders are associated with an increased risk of atrial fibrillation and may worsen their course and predict the risk of developing paroxysm. The dependence between the severity of clinical manifestations, psychodiagnostic tests, laboratory methods, ECG and echocardiographic parameters of the heart on the course of atrial fibrillation is proved.

Published: June 2019

Pollution of the environment with heavy metals, pesticides, nitrates leads to an unceasing deterioration of the population’s health, in particular, the dental one. Excessive intake of salts of heavy metals and nitrites is accompanied by changes in calcium-phosphorus metabolism rates, indicating a disorder of metabolic processes in bone tissue. This necessitates the study of the level of osteotropic elements of the jaw bone tissue.
Materials and methods of research. In the experiment on 80 white outbred male rats, the effects of cadmium chloride, sodium nitrite and their combined action on the content of osteotropic elements in the jaw bone were studied. The control group consisted of 10 intact animals.
Results. It was determined that in the dynamics (1st, 14th, 28th days) of both cadmium-nitrite, nitrite and cadmium intoxication there was observed the accumulation of cadmium and decrease of calcium, copper, zinc levels in bone tissue of animal jaws compared to intact group.
Conclusions.The most significant changes in the level of osteotropic elements in the jaw bones are found in the combined effect of xenobiotics, which is important for understanding of the metabolic processes in the oral cavity.

Published: June 2019

Pellet gun used by law enforcement agencies have the potential to cause grevious or life threatening injuries as metallic projectiles fired at high speeds from pellet gun have potential to damage air containing organs like lungs which occupy a large portion of chest cavity and lie in close approximation to chest wall. Thoracic injury overall is the third most common cause of trauma following injury to the head and extremities.
Objective. The objective of this study was to evaluate lung pellet gun injuries in patients of a conflict zone by a so called non-lethal weapon.
Methods. The study was conducted in post graduate department of Radiodiagnosis and Imaging, Government Medical College, Srinagar Jammu and Kashmir. Our study was performed between the 6th January 2019 to the 22th May 2019. A total of 40 patients with pellet injuries were taken up for study.
Inclusion criteria were patients with pellet gun injuries without any immediate life threatening injury like head injury; patients willing to be part of study. Radiographs of all the patients were studied. Whenever there was suspicion of severe injury, CT scan was done. We obtained thin-section axial CT scans (0.625– 1.25 mm) with multiplanar reformation with an interval of 3-5 mm.
Results. All of the patients were males with most of patients in age group of 20 to 30 years.
About 14 patients out of 40 had lung injuries. The most common pattern of lung injury was pneumothorax followed by pulmonary hemorrhage.
In conclusion, a so called non-lethal pellet gun used by law enforcement agencies has the potential to cause lung injuries which can sometimes be lethal to life especially when fired from short distance.

Authors: Kupnovytska Iryna , Romanyshyn Nelia 
Published: June 2019

The objective of the research was to study myocardial hemodynamics and contractility, as well as N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide secretion in the patients with chronic coronary artery disease depending on affected coronary artery number according to coronary angiography.
Materials and methods. The study included 62 patients with chronic coronary artery disease, heart failure with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction. Among the examined patients, males prevailed – 52 (83.9%) individuals. The average age was 61.2±1.2 years. The control group included 15 apparently healthy individuals with preserved gender and age proportions. The patients were randomized by the number of the affected coronary arteries and divided into 2 subgroups according to the results of coronary angiography. Subgroup I included 16 (25.8%) patients with single-vessel coronary artery disease; subgroup II comprised 46 (74.2%) patients with multivessel coronary artery disease.
Results and discussion. According to Holter monitoring, average and maximum heart rate, extrasystoles and episodes of ST-segment depression/elevation were more often found in the patients with multivessel coronary artery disease (p<0.05). According to echocardioscopy, in the patients with coronary artery disease regardless of affected coronary artery number, hemodynamic indicators were higher as compared to healthy individuals (p<0.001), while left ventricular ejection fraction was lower in the patients with multivessel coronary artery disease (р<0.001). Serum level of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide exceeded reference value in both single-vessel coronary artery disease and multivessel coronary artery disease (р<0.001); however, the secretion of this peptide increased in multivessel coronary artery disease (р<0.05). There was observed a strong inverse correlation between left ventricular ejection fraction and N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide in the patients with multivessel coronary artery disease and a moderate correlation in the patients with single-vessel coronary artery disease.
Conclusions. The nature and severity of coronary artery disease clinical course are associated with the number of the coronary arteries affected by atherosclerotic plaques. In multivessel coronary artery disease, according to the results of clinical, functional and laboratory studies, there was observed persistent progression of coronary artery disease and, consequently, chronic heart failure that is the reason for the improvement of schemata for successful treatment of the disease.

Authors: Fedorchenko Mykhailo 
Published: June 2019

Modern strategies of STEMI/NSTEMI management, that include revascularization by coronary stenting, bypass grafting, nowadays are used in 30-40% of urgent patients of such category. The prevalent part of patients is treated by administration of the optimal drug therapy.
The objective of the research was to study the influence of adenosine-5-triphosphogluconate-magnesium trisodium salt and levocarnitine on the clinical course of STEMI/NSTEMI.
Materials and methods. 100 patients with STEMI/NSTEMI were included into the research. Depending on the therapy scheme, patients were divided into three groups and the control one. Determination of the key parameters was performed initially after hospitalization and at the day of patient discharge.
Results. Promising results were shown while slowing the myocardial fibrosing. Limiting of the infarcted and `stunned` myocardium area resulted in ejection fraction increase, increase of the myocardial reserve, measured by echocardiographic indexes.
Conclusions. Decreasing of myocardial fibrosing can be potentiated by the pharmacological postconditioning as well as limiting of the necrotic myocardium area and increase of viable myocardium area. Pharmacological postconditioning is effective and save, that can be proved by the absence of any serious complications.

Authors: Kim Ho Heon , Kim Bora , Joo Segyeong , Shin Soo-Yong , Cha Hyo Soung , Park Yu Rang 
Published: June 2019

Background
There has been significant effort in attempting to use health care data. However, laws that protect patients’ privacy have restricted data use because health care data contain sensitive information. Thus, discussions on privacy laws now focus on the active use of health care data beyond protection. However, current literature does not clarify the obstacles that make data usage and deidentification processes difficult or elaborate on users’ needs for data linking from practical perspectives.

Objective
The objective of this study is to investigate (1) the current status of data use in each medical area, (2) institutional efforts and difficulties in deidentification processes, and (3) users’ data linking needs.

Methods
We conducted a cross-sectional online survey. To recruit people who have used health care data, we publicized the promotion campaign and sent official documents to an academic society encouraging participation in the online survey.

Results
In total, 128 participants responded to the online survey; 10 participants were excluded for either inconsistent responses or lack of demand for health care data. Finally, 118 participants’ responses were analyzed. The majority of participants worked in general hospitals or universities (62/118, 52.5% and 51/118, 43.2%, respectively, multiple-choice answers). More than half of participants responded that they have a need for clinical data (82/118, 69.5%) and public data (76/118, 64.4%). Furthermore, 85.6% (101/118) of respondents conducted deidentification measures when using data, and they considered rigid social culture as an obstacle for deidentification (28/101, 27.7%). In addition, they required data linking (98/118, 83.1%), and they noted deregulation and data standardization to allow access to health care data linking (33/98, 33.7% and 38/98, 38.8%, respectively). There were no significant differences in the proportion of responded data needs and linking in groups that used health care data for either public purposes or commercial purposes.

Conclusions
This study provides a cross-sectional view from a practical, user-oriented perspective on the kinds of data users want to utilize, efforts and difficulties in deidentification processes, and the needs for data linking. Most users want to use clinical and public data, and most participants conduct deidentification processes and express a desire to conduct data linking. Our study confirmed that they noted regulation as a primary obstacle whether their purpose is commercial or public. A legal system based on both data utilization and data protection needs is required.

Published: June 2019

Maintaining the water quality of a pond is one of the main issues on aquaculture management. Water quality represents the condition of a pond based on several water parameters such as dissolved oxygen (DO), temperature, pH, and salinity. All of these parameters need to be strictly supervised since it affects the life-sustainability of cultivated organisms. However, DO is said to be the main parameter since it affects the growth and survival rate of the shrimp. Therefore, a water quality control and monitoring system is needed to maintain water parameters at acceptable value. The system is developed on a mini-PC and microcontroller which are integrated with several sensors and actuator forming an embedded system. Then, this system is used to collect water quality data that is consisting of several water parameters and control the DO as the main parameter. In accordance with the stability needs against the sensitive environment, a fuzzy logic-based controller is developed to maintain the DO rate in the water. This system is also equipped with SIM800 module to notice the farmer by SMS, built-in wifi module for web-based data logging, and improved with Android-based graphical user interface (GUI) to perform user-friendly monitoring. From the experiment results, a fuzzy controller that is attached to the system can control the DO at the acceptable value of 6 ppm. The controller is said to have high robustness since its deviation for long-time use is only 0.12 ppm. Another test shows that the controller is able to overcome the given disturbance and easily adapt when the DOâ€™s set point is changed. Â Finally, the system is able to collect and store the data into cloud storage periodically and show the data on a website.

Published: June 2019

The existing image search system often faces difficulty to find a appropriate retrieved image corresponding to an image query. The difficulty is commonly caused by that the usersâ€™ intention for searching image is different with dominant information of the image collected from feature extraction. In this paper we present a new approach for content-dependent image search system. The system utilizes information of color distribution inside an image and detects a cloud of clustered colors as something - supposed as an object. We applies segmentation of image as content-dependent process before feature extraction in order to identify is there any object or not inside an image. The system extracts 3 features, which are color, shape, and texture features and aggregates these features for similarity measurement between an image query and image database. HSV histogram color is used to extract color feature of image. While the shape feature extraction used Connected Component Labeling (CCL) which is calculated the area value, equivalent diameter, extent, convex hull, solidity, eccentricity, and perimeter of each object. The texture feature extraction used Leung Malik (LM)â€™s approach with 15 kernels.Â For applicability of our proposed system, we applied the system with benchmark 1000 image SIMPLIcity dataset consisting of 10 categories namely Africans, beaches, buildings historians, buses, dinosaurs, elephants, roses, horses, mountains, and food. The experimental results performed 62% accuracy rate to detect objects by color feature, 71% by texture feature, 60% by shape feature, 72% by combined color-texture feature, 67% by combined color-shape feature, 72 % combined texture-shape features and 73% combined all features.

Published: June 2019

MostlyÂ natural disasters in Java Island such as landslides are within the vicinity of not more than 200 Km from the district capital. Cellular communications require complex systems and rather vulnerable Â to cope with disasters. NVIS mode is considered as a simple radio link during disaster mitigation initiation process. It needs a valid estimation to figure out the condition of the ionosphere. There are two purposes of this study, the first of which is an attempt to find out a fact the existences of authorized HF users who still work in the band of 3 MHz â€“ 10 MHz.Â The second is to integrate low cost HF radio communication, commonly available small single board computer hardware, and opensource software, to build a sounding system to evaluate the quality of NVIS channels. Prediction system such VOACAP give hourly prediction data, however it has an inherent limitation because ofÂ Â nature the underlying databases is monthly average based, therefore, the estimation could not be made in a daily bases. However, a real-time channel evaluation (RTCE)Â able to purify maximum observed frequency (MOF) estimation, and consequently, its able to select the best available frequency for short termÂ and real time operation. In this study, we used WSPR to perform a simple RTCE technique. Furthermore, we also reviewed the current regulatory status regardingÂ the availability of sub-10 MHz band for NVIS radio operation. The results show that discrepancies between simulation and measurement are occurred mainly because of sporadic data in the band of 60m and 80m. However, all of the measurement results and simulations almost have the same agreement regarding the quiet period between local midnight and local sunrise. The results of measurements show that 60m band is the most reliable NVIS channel between local sunrise and local midnight. Furthermore, 100 watts is a proper transmitter power to reach the required SNR for reliable voice communication.Â
FEMALE VICTIMS OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AND THEIR RIGHTS TO COMPENSATION IN MALAYSIA
Authors: Mohammed Na'aim Mohd Safri , Rajamanickam Ramalinggam , Nordin Rohaida 
Published: June 2019

In Malaysia, victims of domestic violence including women may seek protection under the Domestic Violence Act 1994 (Act 521) (hereinafter “DVA 1994”). Pursuant to section 10 of the DVA 1994, female victims of domestic violence (hereinafter “FVDV”) have the right to claim compensation from their husbands or former husbands (hereinafter “Abusive Husbands”). The criminal court also has jurisdiction to make a compensation order as stated under section 426 (1A) of the Criminal Procedure Code (Act 593) (hereinafter “CPC”). A qualitative approach was used for this research, consisting of a detailed analysis of the DVA 1994, CPC, Penal Code (Act 574), case laws, journals, newspapers and scholarly writings related to this area. Based on the findings, there are shortcomings within both provisions which may affect the FVDV’s claim for compensation. Thus, it is timely to propose amendments and reforms to enhance their rights. These include the insertion of a provision stressing that the claim for compensation under section 10 of the DVA 1994 can be applied through a stand-alone application, the inclusion of a provision allowing the compensation order to be initiated by the court on its own motion or upon the application by the FVDV themselves, imposing a responsibility on the court to give reasons if the court decides to disallow the application for compensation made, explaining the legal consequence to the offender should the offender fail to comply with the compensation order, and alternatively to consider a state-funded compensation scheme to provide immediate financial assistance to FVDV without going through the court process.

Published: June 2019

In the 21st century the Internet and information technologies form new opportunities for political participation. The Internet wide coverage has created unprecedented opportunities for dissemination of information on social-political processes, for enlargement of the aware sector and for their active involvement in social-political processes.
Use of the Internet in politics leads to the evolution of the conventional model of political participation, thus, securing the impact of broad masses on the political decision-making processes.
Political Internet participation makes it possible to overcome such obstacles as time and distance. The political discourse that had acquired features of horizontal communication is turning into a multi-component, multi-lateral model of interactive communication.
The article presents the role and influence of the Internet and means of electronic communication on political ongoings and participatory processes. An analysis is given on the role of the Internet and information technologies in the revolutionary events and power turnover processes of 2018 in Armenia.
The author come to the conclusion that neutralization of abuses and risks of the opportunities given by continually developing technologies, supposes not only philosophical consideration but also moral and legal studies and practical mechanisms.
