Authors: Sapronova N. G. , Kantsurov R. N. , Stagniev D. V. , Frolova A. A. 
Published: June 2024

Objective: to improve the results of treatment of patients with complicated intrahepatic portal hypertension by developing optimal surgical treatment tactics and choosing drug correction aimed at preventing thrombotic venous complications.Materials and methods: 82 patients with clinically significant portal hypertension of cirrhotic origin were examined and treated. The I group consisted of 24 patients who underwent transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic stent bypass surgery, the II group included 58 patients for whom the operation was supplemented with selective embolization of the gastric veins. Methods: clinical and laboratory examination, “Thrombodynamics” test using a “prognostic calculator” (RF patent), surgical, statistical.Results: it was established that 26,8% of patients had a risk of developing venous thrombotic complications: in group I 4/24 (16,6%), in group II — 18/58 (31,0%). Personalized drug correction carried out in the postoperative period led to the absence of risk in 2/22 (9,1%) patients in group I and in 8/53 (15,1%) in group II. The number of deaths in group I was 2/24 (8,33%) and in group II 5/58 (8,62%). Shunt thrombosis was detected in 3/22 (13,63%) patients of group I and in 1/53 (1,88%) patients of group II in the period from 24 to 32 months after surgery. Varicose esophageal-gastric bleeding occurred in 2/22 (9,00%) patients with shunt thrombosis of group I and in 1/53 (1,88%) of group II patients who underwent endoscopic ligation of esophageal varices.Conclusion: a method for predicting the risk of developing thrombotic complications in patients with liver cirrhosis is a convenient tool for risk stratification of patients. An individual approach ensures monitoring of the patient not only before, but also after the operation. Drug correction regimens for identifying high, moderate and low risks of complications made it possible to prevent them. TIPS surgery alone and in combination with selective embolization of gastric veins allows achieving comparable results in observation groups against the background of corrective therapy.

Published: June 2024

Objective: studying the influence of various factors on the course and outcomes of COVID-19 in children of different ages, to determine patient management tactics.Materials and methods: the article presents the results of a retrospective assessment of the course of COVID-19 in 89 children observed in clinics of Samara city. A comparative analysis of the course of COVID-19 and post-COVID in children of different ages was carried out. Statistical analysis was carried out by IBM SPSS Statistica 25, p<0.05 was considered the criterion for significance.Results: the severity of COVID-19 was independent of age. For children from 3 to 6 years of age, a severe course of ARI in anamnesis mattered, and in the group of children from 7 to 11 years old - compliance with the national calendar of prophylactic vaccinations. Post-COVID had different frequency and duration. In children older than 7 years old, asthenovegetative syndrome occurred more often and was quickly eliminated. In children aged 3-6 years asthenovegetative and dyspeptic syndromes disappeared during a longer period. 2 - 3 months after recovery from COVID-19, exacerbation of allergic diseases was observed in children over 3 years old. Decrease in immunoresistance occurred one month after recovery in children under 6 years of age.Conclusions: it is important to take into account the age-related characteristics of the course of COVID-19 and post-COVID to predict the risks of severe COVID-19 and deterioration of the child’s health.

Authors: Perme Natalie , Reid Endia , Eluagu Macdonald Chinwenwa , Thompson John , Hebert Courtney , Gabbe Steven , Swoboda Christine Marie 
Published: June 2024

Background
The Infant Mortality Research Partnership in Ohio is working to help pregnant individuals and families on Medicaid who are at risk for infant mortality and preterm birth. As part of this initiative, researchers at The Ohio State University worked to develop a patient-facing mobile app, OHiFamily, targeted toward, and created for, this population. To address the social determinants of health that can affect maternal and infant health, the app provides curated information on community resources, health care services, and educational materials in a format that is easily accessible and intended to facilitate contact between families and resources. The OHiFamily app includes 3 distinct features, that is, infant care logging (eg, feeding and diaper changes), curated educational resources, and a link to the curated Ohio resource database (CORD). This paper describes the development and assessment of the OHiFamily app as well as CORD.

Objective
This study aimed to describe the development of the OHiFamily mobile app and CORD and the qualitative feedback received by the app’s intended audience.

Methods
The researchers performed a landscape analysis and held focus groups to determine the resources and app features of interest to Ohio families on Medicaid.

Results
Participants from several focus groups were interested in an app that could offer community resources with contact information, information about medical providers and information and ways to contact them, health tips, and information about pregnancy and infant development. Feedback was provided by 9 participants through 3 focus group sessions. Using this feedback, the team created a curated resource database and mobile app to help users locate and access resources, as well as access education materials and infant tracking features.

Conclusions
OHiFamily offers a unique combination of features and access to local resources for families on Medicaid in Ohio not seen in other smartphone apps.
The Mediating Role of Problematic Use of Loot Boxes Between Internet Gaming Disorder and Online Gambling Disorder: Cross-Sectional Analytical Study
Authors: González-Cabrera Joaquín , Caba-Machado Vanessa , Díaz-López Adoración , Jiménez-Murcia Susana , Mestre-Bach Gemma , Machimbarrena Juan M 
Published: June 2024

Abstract

Background
The video game industry has introduced a new form of monetization through microtransactions. A controversial example has been the so-called “loot boxes” (LBs) as virtual objects, which are randomized and bought with legal money. In recent years, LBs have come to connect 2 distinct problem behaviors, namely internet gaming disorder (IGD) and online gambling disorder (OGD). Many association studies have been conducted on the 3 constructs, but few have delved into the relationship of problematic use of LBs (PU-LB) with IGD and OGD.

Objective
This study aims to explore the mediating role of the PU-LB between IGD and OGD.

Methods
This cross-sectional and analytical study used incidental sampling in 24 Spanish schools. The final sample consisted of 542 participants (male: n=523, 96.5%; age: range 11‐30 y) who played video games, bought LBs, and had gambled online in the last 12 months. Participants then completed the Spanish versions of the Internet Gaming Disorder Scale–Short Form, Online Gambling Disorder Questionnaire, and PU-LB scale.

Results
IGD scores were found to be significantly associated with both PU-LB (r=0.473, P<.001) and OGD (r=0.209, P<.001). Moreover, PU-LB was significantly associated with OGD (r=0.351, P<.001). The structural equation model results indicated that IGD had no significant direct effect on OGD (P=.903). However, the indirect effect of IGD on OGD through PU-LB was significant (P<.001). Therefore, PU-LB fully mediated the relationship between IGD and OGD. Furthermore, these results were found in the subsamples of both minors (<18 y) and young adults (≥18 y).

Conclusions
It is suggested that there is a mediation effect of problematic LB use between internet gambling and online gambling problems in both minors and young adults. This has potential practical implications by providing more evidence on how LBs have become a hinge feature between 2 clinically relevant and independent issues. In this regard, adequate industry self-regulation is needed, and effective legislation for the protection of minors is necessary.
Illicit Cannabis Use to Self-Treat Chronic Health Conditions in the United Kingdom: Cross-Sectional Study
Authors: Erridge Simon , Troup Lucy , Sodergren Mikael Hans 
Published: June 2024

Abstract

Background
In 2019, it was estimated that approximately 1.4 million adults in the United Kingdom purchased illicit cannabis to self-treat chronic physical and mental health conditions. This analysis was conducted following the rescheduling of cannabis-based medicinal products (CBMPs) in the United Kingdom but before the first specialist clinics had started treating patients.

Objective
The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of illicit cannabis consumption to treat a medically diagnosed condition following the introduction of specialist clinics that could prescribe legal CBMPs in the United Kingdom.

Methods
Adults older than 18 years in the United Kingdom were invited to participate in a cross-sectional survey through YouGov between September 22 and 29, 2022. A series of questions were asked about respondents’ medical diagnoses, illicit cannabis use, the cost of purchasing illicit cannabis per month, and basic demographics. The responding sample was weighted to generate a sample representative of the adult population of the United Kingdom. Modeling of population size was conducted based on an adult (18 years or older) population of 53,369,083 according to 2021 national census data.

Results
There were 10,965 respondents to the questionnaire, to which weighting was applied. A total of 5700 (51.98%) respondents indicated that they were affected by a chronic health condition. The most reported condition was anxiety (n=1588, 14.48%). Of those enduring health conditions, 364 (6.38%) purchased illicit cannabis to self-treat health conditions. Based on survey responses, it was modeled that 1,770,627 (95% CI 1,073,791‐2,467,001) individuals consume illicit cannabis for health conditions across the United Kingdom. In the multivariable logistic regression, the following were associated with an increased likelihood of reporting illicit cannabis use for health reasons—chronic pain, fibromyalgia, posttraumatic stress disorder, multiple sclerosis, other mental health disorders, male sex, younger age, living in London, being unemployed or not working for other reasons, and working part-time (P<.05).

Conclusions
This study highlights the scale of illicit cannabis use for health reasons in the United Kingdom and the potential barriers to accessing legally prescribed CBMPs. This is an important step in developing harm reduction policies to transition these individuals, where appropriate, to CBMPs. Such policies are particularly important considering the potential risks from harmful contaminants of illicit cannabis and self-treating a medical condition without clinical oversight. Moreover, it emphasizes the need for further funding of randomized controlled trials and the use of novel methodologies to determine the efficacy of CBMPs and their use in common chronic conditions.
The Potential and Limits of Arabic Digital Humanities
Authors: Mohamed Eid 
Published: June 2024

Culture is a nuanced term that is hard to define conclusively. It is largely used to refer to the totality of values, basic assumptions and life orientations, beliefs, policies, procedures, and codes of conduct. These are shared by a group of people and affect their behavior and the way they lead their lives. Cultural Analytics (CA), as a field, examines vast amounts of cultural data (books, images, newspapers, music, literature, etc.) to derive culturally relevant insights. Various methods and techniques (natural language processing, network analysis, visualization, and data mining) are applied to cultural components so that they are useful for research in the humanities. CA can help identify the behavioral components of human cultures and provide an accurate insight into the degree to which people conform to the current or target culture. It utilizes the corpora, metadata, and tools of text and image analysis to provide meaningful insights into the subject of research. This special issue explores how we can improve current performance in terms of understanding Arab cultural and social change and how we can implement behavioral changes or transformations more smoothly. The papers in this special issue use digitized printed texts, including books, journals, and printed ephemera to expand our knowledge of the key players in the printed world during a crucial period of modern Arab history. The combination of these sources will illuminate the intellectual trajectories of those who produced such texts and their transnational formal and informal networks.
Contribuições das disciplinas do curso de Licenciatura em Matemática para o fazer profissional do professor de Ensino Básico
Authors: Lalor Weslley Rosa , Gonçalves Tadeu Oliver 
Published: June 2024

O artigo tem como objetivo analisar os componentes curriculares do curso de Licenciatura em Matemática da Universidade Federal do Pará (UFPA) com vistas a promover uma reflexão sobre a contribuição das disciplinas propostas no curso para a formação dos professores que irão atuar no Ensino Básico. A pesquisa adota a perspectiva qualitativa e as informações decorreram da pesquisa documental no Projeto Pedagógico do Curso (PPC) e das entrevistas realizadas com 13 (treze) discentes, a fim de investigar a perspectiva destes a respeito das disciplinas que contribuem e as que deixam possíveis lacunas para o fazer profissional do futuro docente. A fundamentação teórica tomou como base: Gonçalves (2000) e Fiorentini (2005) que fazem estudos significativos sobre formação de professores e as interações entre as disciplinas teóricas e didático-pedagógica nos cursos de Matemática. O estudo trouxe como resultados que o curso de Licenciatura em Matemática apresenta determinadas lacunas no que se refere a distribuição de carga horária entre as disciplinas teóricas (de Matemática específica e disciplinas pedagógicas) e disciplinas voltadas a prática como Estágios e Laboratórios, além dos professores do curso não promoverem reflexões e relações entre as disciplinas vistas na graduação e na Educação Básica. Neste sentido, após os 4 (quatro) anos na academia o futuro professor ao atuar no Ensino de Matemática na Educação Básica encontra lacunas deixadas pela formação, deixando de realizar reflexões sobre o Ensino e de desenvolver metodologias diferenciadas durante sua prática docente, as quais deveriam ser ensinadas e promovidas ao longo da formação inicial na Licenciatura em Matemática.
Social prescribing in Canada: health promotion in action, 50 years after the Lalonde report
Authors: Mulligan Kate , Card Kiffer G. , Allison Sandra 
Published: June 2024

Abstract

The Lalonde report, published in 1974 by the Canadian Minister of National Health and Welfare, broke ground for public health in Canada by acknowledging that the determinants of health are much broader than health care services. Fifty years later, this special issue of Health Promotion and Chronic Disease Prevention in Canada charts a clear path towards addressing upstream determinants of health through an emerging intervention called “social prescribing.” Social prescribing connects patients with community resources tailored to their individual priorities, fostering a paradigm shift from a deficitbased to a strengths-based approach in health promotion. Part 1 of this issue covers the rapid growth and diverse applications of social prescribing across Canada, with targeted initiatives for various populations and interventions ranging from nature and arts to physical activity and social connectivity. Contributions from a wide range of partners, including researchers, health professionals and community members, explore the adaptability of social prescribing for different groups, underscore the role of community and lived experiences in research, and call for more studies on social prescribing’s effectiveness and outcomes. Highlighted case studies demonstrate tangible benefits in health equity and access to social services. This issue not only reflects the current scope and impact of social prescribing in Canada but also sets the stage for its future development and integration into broader health practices.
Lugar e hospitalidade: proposição de um modelo de análise aplicado a cafeterias
Authors: C. Pagnussat Eduarda , Valduga Vander , Nunes de Oliveira Alini 
Published: June 2024

A hospitalidade e a comensalidade se dão no contexto geográfico do lugar. Assim, esse artigo aborda o lugar e suas relações com a hospitalidade a partir da ótica da comensalidade, especificamente no caso de cafeterias. O consumo do café como se conhece hoje está amplamente ligado a popularização das cafeterias e ao ato de consumir café de maneira social, ligado a comensalidade. Objetiva-se, portanto, apresentar um modelo de categorias de análise que permitam a leitura de espaços onde a comensalidade é referência. O estudo foi aplicado em cafeterias de Curitiba-PR. Trata-se de uma pesquisa de caráter exploratório e qualitativo, e a pesquisa de campo se deu por observação assistemática. Como resultado, observa-se que a personalidade do lugar está presente em suas características espaciais, ambientais e físicas e que a organização do espaço influencia na forma como o cliente se relaciona com as cafeterias.
Confiança como dispositivo para a retomada do turismo pós-COVID-19
Authors: Picinini Rudinei , Cardinale Baptista Maria Luiza 
Published: June 2024

O presente texto pretende apresentar a proposição teórico-conceitual ‘confiança’, como dispositivo sinalizador potencial, para a retomada do turismo pós-COVID-19. A estratégia metodológica utilizada é a Cartografia de Saberes (Baptista, 2014), que é dividida em quatro diferentes trilhas: a trilha dos saberes pessoais, a trilha dos saberes teóricos, a trilha da usina de produção e trilha da dimensão intuitiva da pesquisa. Para esse texto, além da abordagem teórica, optou-se por analisar relatórios de tendências e de consumo das empresas Kantar, WGSN e Opinion Box, realizados durante o início da pandemia, com o intuito de identificar informações que se relacionem com as diferentes dimensões da confiança e perspectivas sobre o futuro do turismo. Como resultados preliminares, os sujeitos, nesse momento, demonstram demandas, principalmente, relativas Ã dimensão afetiva da confiança. Demandas relacionadas Ã dimensão cognitiva também se mostram presentes na expectativa de adaptação dos provedores de serviços básicos, assim como, turísticos.

Programas de fidelidade no mercado de passagens aéreas
Authors: Gavinho Carolina , Feder Mayer Verônica 
Published: June 2024

Este artigo visa apresentar os programas de fidelidade e as tendências emergentes. Por ser um mercado altamente lucrativo, com pontos expirando e número crescente de participantes, entender o comportamento dos turistas no processo de decisão ao resgatar ou vender seus pontos, é um tema relevante para pesquisas sobre o comportamento do consumidor no turismo, visto que a maior parte do resgate de pontos continua sendo por passagens aéreas. Dessa forma, foi feita uma revisão bibliográfica a fim de investigar o atual status das pesquisas que estudam os programas de fidelidade sob a perspectiva do comportamento do consumidor no turismo, tanto no Brasil como no exterior. Com os resultados obtidos, são discutidos os principais temas de estudo para futuras pesquisas, como impacto do surgimento de novos intermediários e novas tecnologias na tomada de decisão de venda/resgate dos pontos e como o consumidor percebe esse movimento ao tomar suas decisões.

“IMPERIAL TURN” IN THE STUDY OF RUSSIAN HISTORY. MODERN INTERPRETATIONS
Authors:   Russian State University for the Humanities, Illeritskaya Natalia V. 
Published: June 2024

The article analyzes a new direction in modern historiography, called the “imperial turn”. As a result of “imperial research”, an integral image of the Russian Empire is constructed throughout its historical existence, which, according to modern interpretations, covers the period from the second half of the 15th century until 1917. Researchers focus not only on the western outskirts,	the	Volga	region,	the	Caucasus	and	Central	Asia,	traditional	for	imperial	studies of Russia, but also on the Russian-Chinese borderlands and Russian America. The modern historiography of imperial Russia considers and analyzes such controversial issues as “Russia and the West”, “Russia and the East”, the degree	of	uniqueness	of	Russian	imperialism,	the	concept	of	“internal	colonization”, the role of rising nationalism in the collapse of empires during the First World War. The Russian Revolution in the “imperial” context is positioned as one of the results of the Great War: the revolution of 1917 in Russia became only	a	link	in	the	global	crisis	of	the	twentieth	century.	As	a	result,	in	modern	historiography “the threshold of the revolution” is of less and less interest to historians. Their attention is focused on previous centuries and on the Soviet era.	They	do	not	argue	about	the	crisis	of	the	Russian	Empire,	do	not	question	it,	do	not	look	for	alternatives	or	those	responsible	for	it.	The	presence	of	a	crisis	is simply stated, believing that the fall of the monarchy could not be avoided, and this reality should be historicized.
