Analyzing the tourism in Chitwan National Park from Visitors’ Perspective
Authors: Aryal Chandramani , Neupane Manoj , Shrestha Shristi 
Published: September 2024

Protected areas are the cornerstone of global biodiversity conservation initiatives, and people’s support is pivotal for their success. However, in many protected areas, particularly those with restricted human interaction, the park-people relations deviated towards negativity, and the major cause is the inability of the park to connect conservation with the people’s livelihood. Better-planned tourism can serve as a vehicle to link conservation with livelihood, particularly in protected areas like Chitwan National Park (CNP), where the flow of tourists is already higher. However, there is a need to understand consumer satisfaction and link those to ensure a sustainable tourism business in the park. The aspect has been explored to a limited extent in the park; thus, we have attempted to partially address that void. To address the issue, we have collected the perceptions of the people through a face-to-face interview using a structured questionnaire with 142 tourists encountered in and around the Sauraha area of CNP. The data was collected in January 2020, was managed using Microsoft Excel, and was analyzed using R software. Natural attractions around the national park were found to be the important drivers that drive tourists to CNP, and they admired the accommodation (79% positive response), food (65% positive response), hospitality (75% positive response), and behavior of the local people (74% positive response). The majority of the tourists have a positive response towards other tourism amenities. Tourists were highly satisfied with the elephant safari and Jeep safari activities. However, many have suggested improving the transportation facility and solid waste management in the park. The findings of the studies can be used by the relevant stakeholders to improve the services and amenities offered to tourists, which will ensure the sustainability of tourism businesses in and around the park.

Published: September 2024

Introduction: Combination of bronchodilators, particularly long-acting muscarinic antagonists (LAMAs) and long-acting β2 agonists (LABAs) have become the mainstay of pharmacological therapy for COPD. COPD is now a common non communicable disease in Nepal.
Objective: The study evaluated the current perception and experience of the clinicians in Nepal on diagnosis and management of COPD with focus on use of dual bronchodilator therapy.
Method: This cross-sectional, observational survey evaluated experiences of clinicians (n=96; pulmonologist-13, physician-57, general practitioner-26) in Nepal on diagnosis, management trends, and current perceptions on the use of dual bronchodilator therapy in COPD management.
Result: 93% of clinicians were practising in an urban setting for an average of 10 years and an average of 35% of their patients are of COPD. 61% of clinicians use mMRC with (34%) or without (27%) CAT score. 92% of clinicians perceived that most of their patients had 1 (32%) or >1 (59%) exacerbation/year. 54% of clinicians performed spirometry on all their patients with suspected COPD. 49% of clinicians measured blood EOS in their patients with severe COPD before adding ICS. 93% of clinicians preferred dual therapy (separate inhalers or a combination) for their COPD patients, but 83% of clinicians preferred LABA + LAMA in a single inhaler over inhalers given separately. 57% of clinicians preferred LABA + LAMA and 82% preferred the Tiotropium + Formoterol combination. 81% of clinicians stepped up or stepped down their treatment. 56% of patients were taking LABA + LAMA + ICS and 55% of clinicians co-prescribed ICS + LABA with LABA + LAMA. 80% of clinicians checked the inhalation technique at every visit and an average of 54% of their COPD patients were adherent (>80%) to the prescribed inhalation therapy. 78% of clinicians felt that dryness of mouth was the most common side effect of LABA + LAMA. 94% of clinicians believed that managing COPD better could improve cardiovascular outcomes in their patients with coexistent COPD.
Conclusion: In the EXPAND survey, Formoterol + Tiotropium was preferred by most clinicians in Nepal amongst the LABA + LAMA combination. There is a good scope for improvement in the utilization of tools like spirometry, mMRC, CAT, and blood EOS in the daily practice of clinicians in Nepal.
Державницькі погляди І. Ющука на статус української мови
Authors: Kryshchuk Bogdan , Kryshchuk Valentyna , Filiniuk Valentyna 
Published: September 2024

У статті на основі теоретичного аналізу наукових праць та інтерв’ю, які давав І. Ющук, виокремлено провідні педагогічні ідеї вченого та узагальнено його погляди на державну мову. Розглянуто державницькі погляди педагога на важливість української мови як основи національної ідентичності та державності. Виокремлено загрози, які постають перед українською мовою, зокрема лінгвістичну асиміляцію та недостатню підтримку з боку держави й суспільства. Підкреслено, що українська мова повинна займати центральне місце в освітньому процесі, і що роль освітньої системи у формуванні національної свідомості та підтримці мовної культури є критично важливою.
Зроблено висновок про потребу єдиного мовного режиму в закладах загальної середньої освіти. Зазначено, що грамотність учнів і загальна мовна культура повинні бути інтегровані в усі аспекти освітнього процесу. Такий підхід сприятиме збереженню й зміцненню статусу української мови, яка є не лише засобом комунікації, але й важливим чинником державної єдності та культурного розвитку.
У статті підкреслено цілеспрямоване використання І. Ющуком потужних історичних прикладів і лінгвістичних засобів для пробудження національної свідомості українців, зокрема через порівняння з пригнобленими народами, що витрачають значні зусилля на виховання мовної культури. Це дозволяло І. Ющуку проводити паралелі із ситуацією в Україні, де тривала русифікація здійснювалася під тиском імперської політики. Закцентовано увагу на тому, що відсутність єдиного мовного режиму може призвести до дезорганізації мовних навичок у школярів і негативно вплине на якість освітнього процесу та національну свідомість, бо збереження мовних стандартів є невід’ємною частиною державної політики.
У контексті російсько-української війни в статті наголошено на тому, що захист української мови є питанням національного виживання. Агресивна політика росії, спрямована на знищення української ідентичності, є кримінальною за сутністю. Це підкреслює важливість активного захисту української мови як основи національної оборони та виживання нації.
Wolfgang Streeck on the Origins of Capitalist Crisis
Authors: Sadian Samuel 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
Shortly after the financial crisis of 2008, Wolfgang Streeck emerged as a highly influential and ambitious critical theorist of capitalism and crisis. Streeck's crisis theory of capitalism is built around an account of neoliberal policy reform as a family of responses to economic upheavals that first emerged during the 1970s. Based on an analysis of four major shocks all occurring in that decade, I argue that Streeck's crisis theory is excessively economistic in its understanding of the crisis tendencies that first propelled neoliberal reform and insufficiently attentive to the global context of their emergence. Theorising the significance of this pivotal historical moment requires more attention to the conflictual entanglements between societies of the Global South and North in the context of decolonisation, war and revolution, and a more nuanced appreciation of the political context of economic reform.
Revisiting Badiou's Theory of the Political Subject
Authors: Rech Walter 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
This article argues that Alain Badiou's theory of the subject offers conceptual resources that help make sense of ordinary life-experiences of ‘evental moments’ and enable the critique of hypertrophic forms of political or corporate agency. The article identifies a set of ideas through which Badiou's philosophy contributes to much-needed emancipatory thinking today. As it investigates the notions of horlieu and the event, the article stresses that true political change requires the emancipation of the ‘quasi-totality’, something that ‘reactive’ political or corporate subjects would not be able to deliver. The piece emphasises that, for Badiou, universalist equality is the indispensable game-changer of politics, and that every single person can contribute to genuinely egalitarian projects. In Badiou's view, there are no meta-subjects and meta-events. Everyone can experience truth in their lives.

Levodopa-resistant parkinsonism developing after ventriculoperitoneal shunting for obstructive hydrocephalus and improving after endoscopic third ventriculostomy, with specific consideration of brainstem morphology: illustrative case
Authors: Morisue Yoshihiko , Osawa Shin-ichiro , Niizuma Kuniyasu , Kanno Shigenori , Suzuki Kyoko , Endo Hidenori 
Published: September 2024

BACKGROUND
Parkinsonism has been reported in patients with obstructive hydrocephalus (OH) following ventriculoperitoneal shunting (VPS). While levodopa works well, some cases are drug resistant. A few case series have reported that endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) is beneficial, though its mechanism remains unclear. The use of a pathophysiology-reflected marker can aid in the diagnosis and treatment strategy. The authors report a case of parkinsonism due to OH after VPS that improved after ETV in a patient taking levodopa, which was subsequently discontinued.

OBSERVATIONS
A 52-year-old man who had undergone VPS for OH caused by aqueductal stenosis with a tectal tumor presented with severe consciousness disturbance due to acute hydrocephalus and levodopa-refractory parkinsonism after multiple episodes of shunt malfunction. Magnetic resonance imaging showed an elevation of the floor of the third ventricle. ETV was performed to stabilize the pressure imbalance across the stenosis, and his parkinsonism symptoms improved after long-term rehabilitation, resulting in levodopa discontinuation. His pontomesencephalic angle, the angle between the anterior surface of the midbrain and upper surface of the pons in the midline of the sagittal plane, was significantly decreased.

LESSONS
The focus in such cases should be on the essence of the pathophysiology for improving the symptoms rather than on easy-to-understand indicators such as ventricle size.

Spontaneous asymptomatic common carotid artery dissection resembling a carotid web: illustrative case
Authors: Takahashi Toshihide , Yanaka Kiyoyuki , Aiyama Hitoshi , Saura Minami , Kajita Michihide , Takahashi Nobuyuki , Marushima Aiki , Matsumaru Yuji , Ishikawa Eiichi 
Published: September 2024

BACKGROUND
Carotid artery dissection is a common cause of ischemic stroke, predominantly affecting the internal carotid artery, with rare involvement of the common carotid artery (CCA). The limited literature makes diagnosis and management challenging, particularly in asymptomatic patients. In this report, the authors present a unique case of spontaneous, asymptomatic CCA dissection that resembled a carotid web, shedding light on its clinical spectrum and management.

OBSERVATIONS
A 70-year-old man was diagnosed with an intimal flap in the left CCA. Although the findings resembled those of a carotid web, cerebral angiography confirmed the presence of an intimal flap and arterial wall irregularities indicative of vascular dissection. Endarterectomy successfully prevented the stroke, and the postoperative recovery was uneventful. Pathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of CCA dissection.

LESSONS
Spontaneous CCA dissection, though rare, presents significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. Because of morphological similarities, differentiating the diagnosis from a carotid web can be difficult. Available treatment strategies include antiplatelet therapy and surgical intervention. In this case, endarterectomy was chosen to avoid antithrombic treatment in anticipation of further invasive treatments for other conditions. The successful outcome highlights the potential as a treatment option, emphasizing the need for an individualized approach to each patient.

KEAP1-mutant atypical meningioma: illustrative case
Authors: Harary Paul M , Hori Yusuke S , Persad Amit R. L , Tayag Armine , Ustrzynski Louisa , Emrich Sara C , Rahimy Elham , Park David J , Li Gordon , Chang Steven D 
Published: September 2024

BACKGROUND
While genetic testing of tumors is commonly used to inform the selection of systemic therapies, there is limited evidence for the application of radiotherapy for brain cancer. Recent studies have shown that Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (KEAP1), a key regulator of cellular responses to oxidative and electrophilic stress, is associated with radioresistance in multiple cancer types. Several studies have reported the clinical significance of KEAP1 mutation in brain metastasis; however, the effect of KEAP1 mutations on radioresponse in meningioma has never been reported.

OBSERVATIONS
The authors present the case of a 40-year-old female with a KEAP1 mutation–positive atypical meningioma that was initially treated with resection followed by intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT). Recurrence was observed at 15 months, requiring reoperation and adjuvant stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS). An excellent treatment response was observed at 7 months post-SRS with an improvement in reported symptoms, although bevacizumab was required for the resolution of radiation necrosis observed 2 months post-SRS.

LESSONS
To the authors’ knowledge, this is the first report of KEAP1-mutant meningioma, including its clinical course after comprehensive management. Notably, treatment included multimodal radiotherapy with IMRT followed by SRS. SRS led to an excellent treatment response at the 7-month follow-up. However, radiation necrosis developed after both radiotherapy treatments, suggesting that radiological modification can be beneficial in patients with KEAP1 mutations.

Ensuring Information Security of Information Systems to be Integrated Based on Trust
Authors: Gryzunov V. V. , Krjukov A. S. , Shestakov A. V. , Zikratov I. A. 
Published: September 2024

Relevance. Information systems are integrated with each other, which leads to the need to ensure the protection of the integrated system. The level of trust requires formalizing the concept of trust and studying its nature and structure.The purpose of the article is to remove the contradiction between the needs to provide access to the resources of the resulting integrated system and ensure compliance with the information security requirements of each of the integrated systems by formulating the concept of trust from the information security perspective. Methods used: systems analysis, risk management theory, resolutions, iSoft operator equation synthesis method.Results. Main shortcomings of existing approaches to the formalization of the concept of “trust” are identified. Based on the FIST information system model, a functional trust structure has been developed and formalized in IDEF0 notation for all levels of integrated information systems: supporting level, personnel level, hardware and software levels. Examples of violation of trust and examples of tools for creating trust for each level of the information system are given. The adequacy of the model is illustrated by the example of real integration of information systems. Application of the proposed trust model made it possible to identify features that increase information security risks for the integrated information system from the example. Novelty. An interpretation of trust as a measure of information security is proposed, in contrast to “risk” as a measure of danger. A tool for quantitative assessment of trust is proposed. A necessary and sufficient condition for creating maximum trust in an information system is formulated and proven by the resolution method Practical significance. The proposed trust model can be used in the development of guidance documents regulating the process of integration of information systems, in setting requirements for service personnel and creating training programs for them, for developing information security tools and methods for their application.
Routing Task in Dynamic Fog Computing Network
Authors: Volkov A. N. 
Published: September 2024

Relevance. In the context of traffic growth, transition to IMT-2030 networks and Telepresence services, the tasks of efficient management of network and computing resources occupy a special place. Fog computing as the next stage of decomposition of the architecture of multi access edge cloud computing is designed to radically change the models and methods of distributing computing tasks, influencing, among other things, the user-operator interaction models. At the moment, there is a whole layer of scientific problems for revealing the possibilities of fog computing. They can be divided into a number of areas, such as: study of models and methods for implementing services of ultra-reliable and ultra-low latency communications, defined in IMT-2020 networks; study of models and methods for ensuring quality of service, including quality of experience; study of methods for live migration of microservices, as well as groups of typical microservices; study of models and methods for distributing resources of dynamic fog computing while ensuring the stability of fog computing forms (clusters, nebulae); one of the potentially effective areas is research in the field of combining federated learning with dynamic fog computing. This paper solves a routing problem that can be attributed to the direction of infrastructure research in dynamic fog computing.Problem statement: research and develop the effective methods for routes determination in a dynamic fog computing network, including tasks of migrating microservices of telepresence services. Goal of the work: research and development of an effective method for ways determination to migrate microservices in communication networks using fog computing technologies, which could take into account not only the characteristics of connections (edges of the network graph), but also the computing capabilities and limitations of fog computing devices, as well as their features - the dynamics of computing devices. Methods: in order to test the proposed method, the program model was developed in the NS-3 modeling environment. Result. Analysis of the results showed the effectiveness of the proposed method within the framework of the task and various application scenarios. Novelty. A microservice migration method has been developed as a new routing protocol in a dynamic fog computing environment, which differs from the known ones in that this method ensures the interaction of fog computing devices for migrating microservices, while achieving a reduction in energy consumption by fog computing devices by 41% and reducing the share of lost packages on average up to 34%. Practical significance: The developed method can be used to implement fog computing in conditions of mobility of end devices in order to achieve the requirements of promising services of IMT-2030 networks.
