Visual Grammar in Multimodal Discourse: A Comparison of British and Chinese Documentaries on Chinese Cuisine
Authors: Wang Lihua , Cao Jingxiang 
Published: September 2024

This study, based on the Visual Grammar (VG), compares two Chinese cuisine documentaries: A Bite of China Ⅰ from CCTV and Exploring China: A Culinary Adventure from BBC. It analyses the visual modes employed in the construction of meaning in each documentary. And we analyze and compare the China’s national image presented in the two documentaries. The videos are annotated by ELAN 5.9. We found that (1) A Bite of China (CCTV) is inclined to adopt the conceptual process to construct the representational meaning while Exploring China (BBC) adopts the narrative process to construct the representational meaning. (2)In the construction of interactive meaning, both adopt offer images to realize contact with subtle differences in distribution. The distribution of close-up shots is similar. But A Bite of China (CCTV) has higher proportion of long shot and Exploring China (BBC) has higher proportion of medium shot. In the attitude dimension, both are similar in the horizontal perspective and vertical perspective with subtle differences in distribution. (3)In the construction of compositional meaning, the distribution of center-margin and left-right is similar. Both rarely adopts framing to construct the meaning in visual modes. (4) It is concluded that A Bite of China (CCTV) portrays China as colorful and profound, highlighting the hard-working, intelligent, and life-loving nature of Chinese people, while Exploring China focuses on social change. Despite some shared visual mode characteristics, the documentaries differ in their representational approaches and the representations of China’s national image.

Authors: Wong Nicholas , Efendi Moch Nur 
Published: September 2024

Dalam penelitian ini peneliti akan berinovasi membuat kuliner khas Bali yaitu betutu dengan teknik smoke dan sous vide. Betutu sendiri berasal dari kata, be artinya daging. Sedangkan kata tutu dari kata tunu, yang artinya dibakar atau dipanggang. Teknik pembuatan betutu adalah langsung ditunu atau dibakar di atas atau dipendam dalam api sekam dan ada pula dibeberapa tempat di Bali terlebih dahulu dimasak dengan air yang dilengkapi dengan bumbu jangkep, kemudian ditunu atau dibakar di atas bara api. Daging yang dipakai bahan yaitu daging ayam, baik ayam kampung maupun ayam petelur dan boiler serta bebek. Tujuan dilakukan penelitian ini yaitu untuk mengetahui storytelling dari bebek betutu, karakteristik serta minat beli dari bebek betutu dengan penggunaan teknik smoke dan teknik sous vide. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan pendekatan kualitatif. Teknik pengumpulan data yang digunakan berupa wawancara, observasi, dan dokumentasi. Hasil dari pemanfaatan teknik smoke dan sous vide dalam pengolahan bebek betutu menghasilkan bebek betutu yang memiliki nilai lebih pada aspek tekstur, dimana bebek betutu lebih empuk dan juicy dibandingkan dengan bebek betutu tradisional. Efisiensi dan efektivitas meningkat jika menggunakan teknik smoke dan sous vide baik dari segi biaya produksi, waktu, dan hasil yang didapatkan. Potensi minat beli yang tinggi dikarenakan harga yang ditawarkan lebih murah dibandingan produk bebek betutu komersial lain. Nilai lebih tekstur bebek betutu yang dihasilkan juga meningkatkan minat beli terhadap produk penelitian.

In this research, researchers will innovate to create a typical Balinese culinary dish, namely betutu, using ¬smoke and sous vide. Betutu itself comes from the word, be, meaning meat. Meanwhile, the word tutu comes from the word tunu, which means burnt or roasted. The technique for making betutu is to directly cook it or burn it on or put it in a husk fire and in several places in Bali, it is first cooked in water with jangkep spices, then it is cooked or grilled over hot coals. The meat used is chicken meat, both free-range chickens and laying hens and boilers and ducks. The aim of this research is to find out the storytelling of the betutu duck, the characteristics and buying interest of the betutu duck using the smoke technique and sous vide technique. This research was conducted using a qualitative approach. Data collection techniques used were interviews, observation and documentation. The results of using smoke and sous vide techniques in processing betutu duck produce betutu duck which has more value in the texture aspect, where betutu duck is more tender and juicy compared to traditional betutu duck. Efficiency and effectiveness increase when using smoke and sous vide techniques both in terms of production costs, time and results obtained. The potential for high buying interest is because the price offered is cheaper than other commercial betutu duck products. The added value of the betutu duck texture produced also increases purchasing interest in research products.

Published: September 2024

Background and purpose: Periprosthetic femoral fracture (PFF) is a significant complication of total hip arthroplasty (THA). Although biomechanical studies have indicated that the technique by which the femoral canal is prepared plays a role, few clinical studies have reported on how this might affect the fracture risk. This study compares the fracture risk between compaction and broaching with toothed instruments in cementless THA.Methods: Prospectively collected data from the quality register of a high-volume hospital was used. All primary arthroplasties using the Corail stem (DePuy Synthes) were included. All femoral fractures occurring within the first 90 days after the operation were included in the analysis. We determined the relative risk of sustaining PFF with compaction compared with broaching and adjusted for confounders (sex, age group, BMI, and use of a collared stem) using multivariable Poisson regression.Results: 6,788 primary THAs performed between November 2009 and May 2023 were available for analysis. 66% were women and the mean age was 65.0 years. 129 (1.9%) fractures occurred during the first 90 days after the operation, 92 (2.3%) in the compaction group and 37 (1.3%) in the broaching group. The unadjusted relative risk of fracture in the compaction group compared with the broaching group was 1.82 (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.25–2.66), whereas the adjusted relative risk was 1.70 (CI 1.10–2.70).Conclusion: Compaction was associated with more periprosthetic fractures than broaching (2.3% versus 1.3%) within 90 days after surgery.

Published: September 2024

BACKGROUND. The development of new samples of local hemostatic agents is an intensively developing area of the modern industrial biotechnology due to a high need of clinical bases for such products. In addition to constant search for optimal substances used as a basis (collagen, cellulose and its derivatives, gelatin, etc.) for local hemostatic agents, methods for their comprehensive testing are also being developed. AIM OF THE STUDY. To evaluate the hemostatic activity of multicomponent polymer sponge implants using the coagulometer method developed by the authors in an in vitro experiment. MATERIAL AND METHODS. As research materials, new samples of multicomponent polymer sponge implants developed within the Laboratory of Experimental Surgery and Oncology of the Kursk State Medical University were used. The samples were based on marine collagen made from deep-sea squid in different ratios by weight with carboxymethylcellulose sodium salt (15/85, 25/75, 50/50). The hemostatic activity of these products was evaluated in the in vitro experiment using our method based on coagulometric measurement of blood clotting time of volunteer donors. Statistical processing of the data was carried out using methods of descriptive and variation statistics (Me [25; 75]). The validity of the difference was determined using the Mann–Whitney test (p ≤ 0,05). RESULTS. The blood clotting time in experimental group No. 2 turned out to be 2.12 s less than in the control group (the tested samples of hemostatic agents were not added). Statistically significant differences were found when comparing the values of coagulation time in experimental groups No. 3 (2.98 s less) and No. 4 (2.37 s less) with the values of the control group (No. 1). A decrease in the blood clotting time indirectly proves the effectiveness of the products used, due to the formation of the blood clot in a shorter period of time. This suggests that when the hemostatic agents are used in bleeding conditions, the products will reduce the time and volume of bleeding due to their hemostatic activity. CONCLUSION. Within the framework of the completed study, it was established that our method for assessing the hemostatic activity of local hemostatic agents, based on the evaluation of blood clotting time using electrocoagulometry, after grinding the tested samples, is easy to perform, accessible to most laboratories, and allows researchers to investigate the effectiveness of various forms of multicomponent polymer sponge implants. The development of multicomponent polymer sponge implants based on carboxymethylcellulose sodium salt and collagen seems to be a promising direction, since these products accelerate blood clotting time in the in vitro experiment.

Abstract
Malaysian households have exhibited significant improvements in the standard of living and economic opportunities. However, a larger household income does not always translate into an economically comfortable household. Regional variations in income and expenditure levels need to be explored for better understanding on the diversity of experiences among Malaysian households. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the pattern and relationship between household income, household expenditure, and household size among states in Malaysia. Several methods have been used such as the Pearson correlation coefficient, paired t-test, and multiple regression model using IBM Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 27 and Microsoft Excel for the year 2016, 2019 and 2020. Descriptive results showed that despite the significant increase in household median income, households seemed unable to allocate the income increment to their expenses, possibly due to higher living costs requiring adjustments in expenditure. Results also showed that the expenditure growth rate outpaces the income growth rate drastically in a few states such as Negeri Sembilan and Putrajaya. The inferential results have shown that there is a significant difference in the mean monthly household median income and the mean monthly household median expenditure across states in Malaysia between 2016 and 2019. Multiple regression revealed that household median income significantly predicted household median expenditure, while household size is not significant. This study suggests government to regularly review the prices of essential goods and services to ensure they remain affordable for all households. This is crucial for improving the living standards and well-being of Malaysians.

Abstract
Biosecurity measures, coupled with effective on-farm management, encompass all aspects aimed at preventing the entry of pathogens into pig farms and their subsequent spread within the facility. This study assessed biosecurity practices on commercial pig farms in Serbia by surveying farm veterinarians/managers. To evaluate biosecurity on these farms, a Biocheck online survey (https://biocheckgent.com) was conducted across ten commercial pig farms in Northern Serbia, where the highest concentration of industrial pig production occurs. The average overall biosecurity score was 65.56 ±11.65. External biosecurity scored higher (75.56 ±9.39), whereas internal biosecurity scored lower (54.89 ±16.92). Within external biosecurity, the weakest scores were observed in categories such as feed, water, and equipment supply (47 ±25.48), showing considerable variation among farms, particularly in feed, water, equipment supply (54.22), and farm location (57.65). Regarding internal biosecurity, the lowest scores were noted during the farrowing and suckling period (37.22 ±15.08) and the finishing unit (37.66 ±24.12). This study reveals that biosecurity measures in commercial pig farms in Serbia are slightly below the global average. Given the predominance of extensive production systems in Serbia, urgent improvements in biosecurity practices on industrial farms are essential. Identification and implementation of appropriate biosecurity measures tailored to existing animal production systems are urgently needed.

Sudden changes in post partum mothers can include emotional disappointment, pain during the early postpartum period, fatigue due to lack of sleep during labor and anxiety about her ability to care for her baby, as well as fear of no longer being attractive to her husband. In this condition, post partum mothers need sufficient information and need people who are able to accept their complaints and help solve the problem. Therapeutic communication is consciously planned communication, where the activities are focused on the patient's recovery. Nurses who have communication skills not only easily establish relationships of trust with patients, but also prevent illegal problems from occurring, provide satisfaction in nursing services and improve the image of the nursing profession and the image of the hospital. The aim of this research is to analyze strategies for implementing therapeutic communication in increasing service satisfaction for postpartum inpatients at RSIA Aisyiyah Klaten. The research design uses mixed methods, (a combination of quantitative and qualitative). The sampling technique used accidental sampling and a total of 30 samples were obtained. The data analysis technique uses Spearman Rank. The results of the univariate analysis of the study showed that the mean age of the respondents was 29,63 ± 5,39, the majority had a high school education (60%), with a non-working status of 73,3%, the majority were multiparous 66,7% and the birth method was caesarean section 53,3%. The results of the bivariate analysis showed that the implementation of therapeutic communication was 83,3% good, and the majority of satisfaction with nursing services was 86,6% good with a p-value of 0,354. So it can be concluded that there is no relationship between therapeutic communication and satisfaction with nursing services.

Published: September 2024

Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) has been drawing a lot of attention in the last ten years parallel with the market increase in electric vehicles. Although conductive charging methods are still the preferred ones, WPT-based charging systems are used as clean and flexible alternatives. At the center of these systems are the transmitting and receiving coils, and different coil types have been proposed in the literature. This study proposes a square-hexagonal hybrid coil structure to increase magnetic coupling by shaping the magnetic field. In addition, this design aims to minimize the coupling coefficient variation for misaligned coils which is one of the most significant problems in WPT systems. A 3D model of the coils was created and analyzed using ANSYS, Maxwell software. Compared to the conventional square coil structure the coupling coefficient of the proposed structure is less affected by misalignment on the x and y axes, and as a result, it has a better efficiency. In addition, a WPT system operating at 50 W, 85-kHz is designed and tested in a laboratory environment. The FEA analyses and experimental application results largely overlap, and accordingly, the coil-to-coil efficiency of our WPT system was 93.5% and the overall efficiency of the system was 87%.
Worsening orbital roof “blow-in” fractures following traumatic brain injury: A report of two cases
Authors: Rao Varun , Gerndt Clayton H. , Ong Vera , Strong Edward Bradley , Shahlaie Kiarash 
Published: September 2024

Background:
Orbital roof fractures are often the result of high-velocity collisions and are seen in 1–9% of patients with craniofacial trauma. Although the majority of orbital roof fractures are displaced superiorly, a subset results in inferior displacement of fracture fragments, posing a risk for muscle/nerve entrapment and possible blindness. Many of these patients have severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) and, in addition to orbital fractures, also have elevated intracranial pressure (ICP). Management of depressed orbital roof fractures in the setting of severe TBI with elevated ICP represents a management dilemma.

Case Description:
Two cases of severe TBI with associated downward displacement of orbital roof fractures were reviewed. Both cases exhibited elevated ICP correlated with the degree of orbital roof fracture depression. Surgical intervention involving elevation and repair of the fractures was undertaken when there was a significant risk of injury to the extraocular muscles and/or the optic nerve due to the extent of the fracture depression.

Conclusion:
Depressed orbital roof fractures may migrate in response to changes in ICP. Serial computed tomography scans and eye examinations may aid with determining the need for and timing of surgical intervention.

The formulation of the problem of development of mathematical support of the automated test complex for the purpose of increase of completeness of control is carried out. An approach to the development of mathematical support of an automated test complex based on a polymodel study of the test object with the introduced strict order ratio between the models is defined. As a mathematical apparatus used to formalize the process of functioning of the simulated system at the senior level, a finite state machine is selected, at the lower level – the mathematical apparatus of Petrinets. Within the framework of the proposed approach, an example of the construction of mathematical support for automated test systems based on a polymodel approach with a hierarchical principle is given.
ADAPTIVE NONLINEAR KALMAN FILTER ON THE BASIS OF THE IRREGULAR PRECISE MEASUREMENTS
Authors: Соколов С.В. , Полякова М.В. 
Published: September 2024

Показана возможность коррекции текущих оценок фазовых переменных нелинейного объекта по точным измерениям, формируемым с некоторым произвольным временным интервалом, а также возможность адаптации самого алгоритма оценивания по полученным точным измерениям, которая позволит на временных интервалах между ними существенно повысить точность оценивания. Получено аналитическое решение задачи адаптивной дискретной нелинейной фильтрации, использующее нерегулярные точные измерения. Возможность нерегулярных точных измерений позволяет в такте их появления точно определять параметры фильтра (коэффициент усиления и коэффициент его адаптации), обеспечивающие нулевую ошибку оценивания. Подобная перестройка параметров алгоритма оценивания резко увеличивает его сходимость, что иллюстрируется соответствующим примером. Проведено сравнение уровней ошибок оценивания, обеспечиваемых алгоритмами традиционной и предложенной адаптивной фильтрации, демонстрирующее очевидные преимущества последнего.
The possibility of correction of the current estimates of state variables of a nonlinear object for the precise measurements formed with some arbitrariest time frame and also possibility of adaptation of the algorithm of estimation on the received precise measurements which will allow on time frames between them signifi cantly to increase accuracy of estimation is shown. The analytical solution of a problem of adaptive discrete nonlinear filtration using the irregular precise measurements is received. The possibility of the irregular precise measurements allows to specify filter parameters (an intensifi cation coefficient and coeffi cients of its adaptation) providing a zero error of estimation in a step of their emergence. Similar reorganization of parameters of an algorithm of estimation sharply increases its convergence that is illustrated by the corresponding example. The comparison of levels of the errors of estimation provided with algorithms traditional and offered adaptive filtration, showing apparent advantages of the last is carried out.
