Construction and characteristics of a thermometer in a hot filament CVD reactor for synthesis of nanocomposites based on carbon nanotubes
Authors: Kadlečíková Magdaléna , Kolmačka Michal 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
This study presents the crucial parts of the final construction of a combined temperature meter with wireless transmission of temperature data. The wireless transmission of temperature information is realized by optical coupling between the photodiode and the phototransistor through the air, not through an optical fibre. The power source is structurally unique in that its output terminals have mechanical freedom and thus the possibility to rotate without using mechanical contacts. Transmission of the supply energy is mediated by the magnetic field in a pot core transformer. A linear symmetrical post-regulator stabilizing the output voltage and ensuring the symmetry of the output voltages is included at the output of the source.
Polish Studies on Saturation Diving and Practical Application of Their Findings. Part III B Technical and Organisational Issues of the Implementation of Saturation Diving in Poland from the 1990s Onwards. Part 2
Authors: Skrzyński Stanisław 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
This article is another in a series of articles on the research and implementation of saturation diving technology in Poland. It discusses the specificities related to the implementation of this technology against the background of economic and historical conditions in our country. In Poland, the issue of saturation diving for the needs of the emerging offshore mining industry has been for over a dozen years dealt with by the Department of Diving Equipment and Technology of Underwater Works (Polish abbr. ZSNiTPP). In parallel, deep diving technologies were developed, in the first stage, as a basic diving technology and, since 1994, as complementary to ensure the full backup for saturation diving. Since 1995, saturation diving has become an everyday occurrence in the Polish economic zone of the Baltic Sea. This article shows the difficult path that the implementation of saturation diving took during a period of economic instability when the scale of the domestic offshore industry’s facilities was small compared to global companies. Selected animators and participants in the implementation are recalled for two periods: one marked with the cooperation with the Italian underwater services company RANA and the other one, a period of implementation of long-term underwater works based on national capabilities. The article also considers the technical and organisational conditions for the implementation of saturation diving for the Polish mining industry. In 1990, the Oil and Gas Exploration and Production Company Petrobaltic (today LOTOS) played one of the key roles in the implementation of saturation diving in our country. The implementation of saturation diving in Poland was linked to the only operational diving system of Italian production, the Af-2, which enabled scientific research related to the application of new technical solutions and testing under operational conditions, as well as contributed to the development of scientific, engineering, and medical staff for the Polish offshore industry. The company played one of the main roles in the implementation of saturation diving in our country The 1995 became a landmark year in the history of saturation diving in Poland, as well as in the Baltic Sea. Through this technology, the process of installing the first two underwater exploitation heads on production wells B3-7 and B3-10 was initiated. The saturation diving was possible thanks to the leasing of the Af-2 diving system by Petrobaltic and its subsequent purchase by the Naval Academy in 1998.This system, after a series of upgrades, is still in service today.
Medical Significance of Nematodes

Published: June 2024

Abstract
Nematodes are invertebrates that can cause parasitic diseases in humans, animals and plants. These organisms also participate in the decomposition of dead remains of organisms. In recent years, new reports have appeared on the possibility of using intentional nematode infections in the treatment of autoimmune and neurological diseases.
The aim of this work is to summarize information about nematodes pathogenic to humans and the possibilities of therapeutic use of some nematodes. 36 original and review publications from 2008-2022 were analyzed.
Information was collected on 13 diseases caused by parasitic nematodes in humans (reservoir, routes of infection, susceptible organisms, symptoms of infection). Current publications on trials of using Trichuris suis eggs (TSO) in animal models, in healthy humans and in people with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) or autism spectrum disorder (ASD) or multiple sclerosis (MS) are summarized. Clinical improvement was observed in some of the subjects. However, researchers draw attention to the depletion of the biodiversity of the host’s intestinal microbiota in the presence of TSO.
Conclusions
The results of research on the therapeutic use of TSO remain inconclusive.
There are many more diseases caused by parasitic nematodes in humans than there are documented therapeutic effects of TSOs.
Exposure to parasitic nematodes’ eggs (especially Toxocara canis and Toxocara cati) is still very common.

Published: June 2024

Abstract
Ketoprofen lysine salt - a new non steroidal antiinflammatory drug (NSAID) is an improved formulation of ketoprofen. The former is believed to have gastroprotective properties, the latter to kill acute pain and increase the risk of gastric mucosa damage. In East Europe binge drinking and taking NSAIDs on the day after is common. The aim of the study was to verify the hypothesis about the gastroprotective effect of ketoprofen lysine salt after exposure to 50% alcohol. The experiment was carried out on 36 female Wistar rats divided into 6 groups of 6:
1. 50% ethanol
2. 0.9% NaCl
3. 0.9% NaCl and ketoprofen
4. 50% ethanol and ketoprofen
5. 0.9% NaCl and ketoprofen lysine salt
6. 50% ethanol and ketoprofen lysine salt
On day 7 animals were sacrificed. Their stomachs were dissected for histopathological examination.
Microscopic examination of stomachs from groups 1, 3,4,5,6 revealed non-specific, high-grade lymphocytic-plasmocytic inflammation of the gastric mucosa. Conclusions - Ketoprofen lysine salt and ketoprofen damage gastric mucosa in female rats after and without alcohol intoxication. Ketoprofen lysine salt has no gastroprotective effect

Published: June 2024

Air traffic controllers (ATCos) quantified the benefits of automatic speech recognition and understanding (ASRU) on workload and flight safety. As a baseline procedure, ATCos manually enter all verbal clearances into the aircraft radar labels by mouse. In our proposed solution, ATCos are supported by ASRU, which is capable of delivering the required radar label updates automatically. ATCos need to visually review the ASRU-based label updates and only have to make corrections in case of misinterpretations. Overall, the amount of time required for manually inserting clearances, i.e., by selecting the correct input in the radar labels, was reduced from 12,700 s during 14 hours of simulation time down to 405 s when ATCos were supported by ASRU. Considering the additional time of mental workload for verifying ASRU output, there is still a saving of more than one-third of the time for radar label updates. This paper also considers safety aspects, i.e., how often incorrect inputs into aircraft radar labels occur with ASRU. The number of wrong or missing inputs is less than without ASRU support. This paper advances the use case that ASRU could potentially improve safety and efficiency for ATCo operations for arrivals.

Published: June 2024

Objectives:
Given the rising concern over depression and anxiety among adolescents, this study aims to investigate their potential impact on respiratory health by comparing pulmonary function test (PFT) parameters between healthy adolescents and those with either depression or anxiety or those exhibiting symptoms of both depression and anxiety.

Materials and Methods:
In this cross-sectional study, a random sample of school-going adolescents aged 13–18 years from various schools in Sikkim, both males and females, were selected. Depression and anxiety were assessed using the Revised Children’s Anxiety and Depression Scale-25, and pulmonary function was measured using a computerised spirometer-Spirolab III. The recorded variables included forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in 1st second (FEV1), FEV1/FVC ratio, peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) and forced expiratory flow at 25–75% (FEF 25–75%).

Results:
Significant differences emerged in FVC (P = 0.034), PEFR (P = 0.013) and FEF 25–75% (P = 0.023) between healthy and depressed adolescents aged 13–18 years. Similarly, a significant difference was observed in PEFR (P = 0.022) and FEF 25–75% (P = 0.002) between healthy adolescents and those with symptoms of both depression and anxiety. These differences were more pronounced among students in higher grades. Furthermore, significant differences in PEFR (P = 0.015) and FEF 25–75% (P ≤ 0.001) were found while comparing healthy males and males with symptoms of both depression and anxiety. However, no such disparities were seen in girls. There was no significant difference in any of the parameters when compared between the healthy group and those with anxiety.

Conclusion:
Depressed adolescents exhibited significantly reduced FVC, PEFR and FEF 25–75% compared to their healthy counterparts, despite being otherwise healthy. This negative association was more pronounced in the higher age group. However, anxious adolescents did not show any significant difference in PFT compared to healthy peers.
Multimodal intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring with special emphasis on facial MEPs for facial nerve preservation in vestibular schwannoma surgeries: Surgical nuances and outcome predictability
Authors: Karanth Vishwa Kumar K. S. , Yerragunta Thirumal , Sampath Nishanth , Yerramneni Vamsi Krishna , Kanala Ramanadha Reddy , Kumar E. Pavan , Govindaraj Anand 
Published: June 2024

Objectives:
The objective of this study was to evaluate the utility of facial motor-evoked potentials (FMEPs) as a significant part of multimodal intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring (IONM) for preserving facial nerve (FN) function in vestibular schwannoma surgery guiding the resection, and predicting outcome.

Materials and Methods:
This prospective observational study included 35 cases of vestibular schwannomas operated under multimodal IONM using free-running electromyography (EMG), triggered EMG (with both monopolar probe and suction stimulator), FMEPs, electroencephalography and its spectral derivatives and train-of-four testing. Direct stimulation using a monopolar probe helped in the identification of FN and guiding tumour resection. The suction stimulator probe was used for quasi-continuous stimulus delivery and FN mapping. FMEPs helped in the assessment of the integrity of FN.

Results:
In 14 cases, there was a single instance, and in 11 cases, there was more than one instance of a significant drop in FMEPs. Sixteen cases had >50% fall in FMEPs during surgery. In 28 cases, the proximal stimulation threshold for FN was ≤0.1 mA at the end of the tumour resection. At the end of the first week following surgery, only 42.9% of the cases had good functional preservation (House–Brackmann [HB] Grade I or II) of FN, which increased to 78.8% at the end of one year. The remaining 21.2% had HB Grade III weakness. Percentage drop in FMEP amplitude and final FMEP amplitude correlated significantly (P < 0.01) with the post-operative HB Grade at 1st week, 3, 6 and 12 months following surgery.

Conclusion:
FMEPs, as a significant component of multimodal IONM, provide a real-time assessment of FN function during surgery, facilitate safe maximal resection, predict immediate post-operative FN outcomes, and improve long-term FN function by minimising the cumulative insult inflicted on the FN during surgery.

В настоящее время в современном мире, отличающемся высокой динамикой развития социально-техногенных и природных систем, участие чрезвычайных ситуаций как никогда прежде приобретает всё большую значимость. По данным МЧС России, ежегодно на территории нашей страны фиксируется более 10 тыс. происшествий различного масштаба – паводки, наводнения, оползни, лесные и торфяные пожары, аварии на транспорте, производственные аварии и т.п. Международное сообщество сталкивается с такими глобальными катастрофами, как землетрясения, цунами, ураганы и извержения вулканов. Данная статья посвящена анализу использования соответствующей терминологии в английском языке. Для проведения исследования был проанализирован корпус научно-популярных и публицистических текстов на английском языке, описывающих последствия чрезвычайных ситуаций различной природы и масштаба, опубликованных в 2000-2020 годах. Была выделена медицинская лексика, затем проведён ее классификационный анализ. В результате исследования была выявлена тенденция к увеличению объёма используемой медицинской терминологии при описании последствий ЧС по сравнению с предыдущими десятилетиями. Также была проанализирована частота употребления разных лексических групп в зависимости от масштаба и характера происшествия.
The issues of physical and patriotic education have traditionally occupied one of the key places in the national education system. This is due to the objective need for the comprehensive development of the younger generation, the formation of healthy lifestyle skills and love for the Motherland among young people as necessary qualities of a citizen. At the same time, the challenges of modernity impose a number of additional requirements on these aspects of the educational process. Currently, the issues of physical and patriotic education of the younger generation are especially relevant due to a number of modern challenges. The purpose of this article is to study existing approaches to physical and patriotic personal development from the point of view of pedagogical theory and practice, as well as to consider the prospects for their further improvement. The study analyzed the fundamental concepts of physical and patriotic education among foreign and domestic scientists and teachers of different eras. Thus, the views of V. Franco, I. Pestalozzi, K. Ushinsky, S. Rubinstein, V. Sukhomlinsky and other key figures in this field were studied. Based on the results of the analysis, the fundamental principles of physical and patriotic personal development were highlighted, as well as the prospects for their further improvement in the context of modern challenges were considered. Several recommendations have been proposed to update existing approaches taking into account innovative trends.
An overview of mathematical problems that surprise with their answers
Authors: Тонких А.П. 
Published: June 2024

Обучение математике – это процесс, в котором учащиеся (школьники или студенты) учатся абстрактным и логическим законам математики, а также применению их при решении задач. Пополняя свои знания новыми математическими фактами, они становятся более уверенными в своих силах, развивают логическое и критическое мышление, необходимые не только при изучении многих других дисциплин, но и для познания окружающего мира. В статье рассмотрены примеры задач из различных разделов математики (арифметики, алгебры, геометрии, комбинаторики, теории вероятностей, математической статистики, математической логики и др.), которые на первый взгляд имеют очевидные ответы. Однако эти ответы неверные и лишь строгие математические рассуждения (или вычисления) позволяют получить верный ответ на поставленный в задаче вопрос. Более того, задачи подобраны так, что они удивляют своими верными ответами, которые кажутся невероятными, сомнительными и даже противоречащими здравому смыслу. Лишь строгие математические рассуждения позволяют развеять эти сомнения. Анализ допущенных ошибок в ходе решения математической задачи помогает учащимся лучше понимать, в каком месте они рассуждали неправильно, как исправить неверные выводы, что нужно сделать, чтобы избежать подобной ошибки в будущем. Исправление ошибок поможет им лучше понимать математический материал и окружающую действительность.
Teaching mathematics is a process in which students (schoolchildren or students) learn the abstract and logical laws of mathematics, as well as their application in solving problems. By adding new mathematical facts to their knowledge, they become more confident in their abilities, develop logical and critical thinking, which are necessary not only for studying many other disciplines, but also for learning about the world around them. The article considers examples of problems from various branches of mathematics (arithmetic, algebra, geometry, combinatorics, probability theory, mathematical statistics, mathematical logic, etc.), which at first glance have obvious answers. However, these answers are incorrect and only rigorous mathematical reasoning (or calculations) allow you to get the correct answer to the question posed in the problem. Moreover, the tasks are chosen in such a way that they surprise with their correct answers, which seem incredible, questionable and even contrary to common sense. Only rigorous mathematical reasoning can dispel these doubts. Analyzing mistakes made during solving a mathematical problem helps students better understand where they reasoned incorrectly, how to correct incorrect conclusions, and what needs to be done to avoid such an error in the future. Correcting mistakes will help them better understand the mathematical material and the surrounding reality.
