Background. Pulmonary edema is a common complication in critically ill patients. The liberal tactics of fluid therapy and pathological accumulation of extravascular lung water increase the risks of mortality in Intensive Care Unit patients. Timely and non-invasive diagnosis of pulmonary edema is a primary goal in the intensive care of patients in the Critical Care Unit. We prefer to use lung ultrasound with the registration of B-lines to diagnose lung edema. However, in our country, this method is not validated due to the lack of a sufficient number of clinical studies and necessary regulatory framework.Objective. To assess the potential of diagnostic ultrasonography for pulmonary edema in critically ill patients.Material and methods. A retrospective study was conducted on 27 patients, including 15 males and 12 females aged from 43 to 67 years old (mean age 45.05±17.2 years). All patients were in critical condition due either to acute liver failure, or acute-on-chronic liver failure, or early post-transplant liver graft failure, or posthepatectomy liver failure. Some patients had a systemic inflammatory response syndrome with the development of multiple organ failure and clinical signs of redistribution shock. All patients underwent ultrasound examination of the lungs, and had hemodynamic parameters measured using the transpulmonary thermodilution technique. The data obtained by the two diagnostic modalities were compared.Results. A significant correlation (p<0.05) was found between the extravascular lung water index and the presence of lung edema. We identified a significant correlation (p<0.05) between the number of B-lines and the presence of pulmonary edema. In assessing the relationship between the "B-line" parameter and the "EVLWI" parameter, a strong positive correlation was identified. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) was 0.9±0.06 with a 95% CI [0.77–1.00].Conclusions. Ultrasound data in diagnosing pulmonary edema have a significant correlation with the level of extravascular pulmonary water. Lung ultrasound is an accurate, non-invasive method for assessing extravascular lung water. It can be used for the rapid and accurate diagnosis of pulmonary edema.

Background. Simultaneous pancreas and kidney transplantation is a gold standard in the treatment of diabetes mellitus complicated by stage 5 chronic kidney disease as a result of diabetic nephropathy. One of the main problems of clinical pancreas transplantation is the pancreas graft exocrine drainage. In order to preserve the advantages of the retroperitoneal graft location and avoid the main disadvantage of duodenal drainage, namely, fatal complications potentially arising in case of necessary graft removal, we have proposed a modified method of retroperitoneal pancreatic transplantation with exocrine drainage via a modified Roux-en-Y duodenojejunostomy. It reduces the number of severe surgical complications and increases the recipient survival rate. When this method was used in previous years, it was not possible to assess the condition of donor duodenum mucosa and interintestinal anastomoses.Objective. To demonstrate the possibility of endoscopic assessment of interintestinal anastomoses when performing retroperitoneal pancreas transplantation with small intestine drainage of exocrine secretions.Results. The article presents the initial experience of endoscopic assessment of the interintestinal anastomoses and the mucous membrane of the donor duodenum after retroperitoneal pancreas transplantation with exocrine drainage via a Roux-en-Y duodenojejunostomy.Conclusion. The presented case demonstrates the feasibility of diagnostic endoscopic interventions when performing retroperitoneal pancreas transplantation with small intestine drainage of pancreatic secretions.

Background. Liver transplantation is currently the most effective method to treat diseases with end-stage liver failure. Complications are most often associated with the initially severe patient condition, imperfect organ preservation methods, the surgical management per se, and immune system incompetence. The most common complications of transplantation include ischemic reperfusion injury, which occurs to some or another extent in each transplanted organ and worsens the course of the postoperative period. The process is based on complex pathophysiological mechanisms of cell damage due to ischemia and inflammation caused by reperfusion.Objective. To summarize current data on the mechanisms of the ischemic reperfusion injury development in liver transplantation and to find the ways to reduce adverse effects.Material and methods. The analysis of data from foreign and homeland experimental and clinical studies on the pathogenesis of ischemic reperfusion injury in liver transplantation has been performed. The search for literature data was carried out in international databases (PubMed/MedLine, ResearchGate, as well as in the scientific electronic library of Russia (eLibrary.RU) for the period from 2020-2024.Conclusion. The analyzed publications have provided various algorithms for the preservation of donor organs, including those using machine perfusion.

Published: June 2024

Globalization and economic integration have an impact on increasing trade volume and economic growth in various countries, especially those that are open in their economies. This situation also provides ease of capital mobility between countries, which makes investment not only rely on domestic investment but also on foreign direct investment. Exchange rates and inflation also affect export growth, imports, and economic growth. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of exchange rate, inflation, foreign direct investment, government expenditure, and economic openness on export and import growth. This study used time series data during the period 1980–2021, sourced from UNCTAD, ASYB, and Indonesian Central Bank (BI). The analysis model used is multiple linear regression with the help of EViews software, which first tests classical assumptions so that the regression results are Best Linier Unbiased Estimator (BLUE). The results show that foreign direct investment and government spending can significantly increase the rate of exports and imports. Meanwhile, the depreciating rupiah against the US dollar cannot encourage an increase in both exports and imports. Furthermore, foreign direct investment, government spending, and economic openness can significantly increase economic growth. The other variables, net exports and inflation, have no effect on Indonesia’s economic growth rate.

Published: June 2024

Introduction
The role of epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) in cardiovascular health has undergone a paradigm shift in recent years, evolving from a passive reservoir into a dynamic contributor to cardiovascular risk. This case critically examines the multifaceted functions of EAT, explores its implications for cardiovascular risk, and discusses the potential benefits of the GLP-1 receptor agonist Liraglutide in mitigating its effects.

Case presentation
We present the case of a 62-year-old male patient who is obese, hypertensive, and has a history of chronic coronary syndrome. He was admitted to the emergency room with complaints of palpitations and shortness of breath. The 12-lead ECG revealed atrial fibrillation with a rapid ventricular response and evidence of a new-onset left bundle branch block. The transthoracic echocardiogram showed heart-rate-dependent regional dyskinesias, while both echocardiographic and computed tomographic scan findings indicated the presence of thick EAT. A coronary angiogram showed intrastent restenosis in the left anterior descending artery, which was treated with percutaneous revascularization. To address residual cardiovascular risk, the patient was initiated on Liraglutide during hospitalization. The follow-up revealed reduced low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein levels, along with a decrease in EAT thickness and BMI, accompanied by improved echocardiographic parameters.

Discussion
Targeted interventions aimed at reducing EAT are imperative given its active role in cardiovascular risk. GLP-1 receptor agonists, such as Liraglutide, hold promise in mitigating the effects of EAT and represent a potential avenue for therapeutic exploration in addressing residual cardiovascular risk.

Authors: Biercewicz Konrad , Włodarczyk Katarzyna , Wiścicka-Fernando Małgorzata 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
This study conducts a bibliometric analysis to explore the relationship between consumer emotions and purchase preferences within a Virtual Reality (VR) environment. Utilizing data from the Web of Science and Scopus databases, the research employs a structured literature review (SLR) approach to identify and analyze relevant academic literature. Custom queries were used to extract data on specific keywords, titles, and abstracts, which were then processed using VOSviewer software to generate bibliometric maps. The findings highlight significant but fragmented coverage of the intersection between VR and consumer emotions, underscoring a gap in integrated studies within this domain. The study identifies distinct research clusters in VR applications, including user experience and cognitive load, and emphasizes the need for further interdisciplinary research to enhance understanding and practical application of VR in influencing consumer behavior and emotions. This analysis provides valuable insights for academics and practitioners aiming to leverage VR for improved consumer engagement and decision-making.

Abstract
In recent years, the use of low-energy electrons in various ecological and biotechnological applications has become increasingly relevant. One important application is the treatment of wastewater, wherein highly reactive species produced by water irradiation are used to oxidize pollutants. Low-energy electron irradiation has several advantages, such as minimal demands on radiation protection and electron beam (EB) source dimensions. However, to play into the main advantages of this technology and keep it economically viable, it is necessary to keep the absorbed dose as low as possible. This calls for a liquid dosimeter with sensitivity in the single digit kGy range. An extract from natural Hibiscus sabdariffa (Roselle) has been reported to show a radiochromic effect in this dose range. In the present work, Roselle dosimeter solutions were closely investigated and optimized to characterize a new module for EB wastewater treatment. Upon EB irradiation, the dosimeter solution demonstrated a dose-dependent fading in color, making it useful in the 0.3–7.5 kGy dose range.
Dysphemism in eating expressions in Javanese: A study of cognitive semantics

Published: June 2024

The word ‘eating’ can produce positive meaning as it is closely tied to human needs. This term is also intricately linked to eating habits. In Javanese society, this term serves to satisfy basic human needs and plays a pivotal role in defining social etiquette. Eating expressions have a broader meaning when examined from a dysphemistic perspective within cognitive semantics. This study employed a descriptive qualitative methodology, with data collection covering interviews, active listening, observation, and note-taking. The data were then analyzed using image schemas and conceptual meaning. The study found that the eating expressions underwent dysphemism in Javanese such as ‘lambene ngemrus wae ket mau! (your mouth keeps eating!), ‘wes, ngrokoti koyo tikus!’ (you eat like a rat!), ‘Gimin esuk-esuk wis nguntal’ (Gimin ate too early this morning), ‘wah, yahene wis nyekek ping pindho’ (you have eaten twice by this time), ‘nyo, badhogen kabeh, aku rasah dingengehi’ (eat all the food and don’t bother to spare for me), ‘panganan kok di gaglak’ (how come you gulping the food?’), and ‘menungso kok gragas?!’ (how on earth could you only eat?!). Moreover, the study identified conceptual metaphors, comprising six structural metaphors and two orientational metaphors. Structural metaphors arise from systematic relationships observed in daily experiences, whereas orientational metaphors impart spatial direction, including the recognition of top-down image schemes, part-whole image schemes, existence image schemes, and merging image schemes.
