Authors: Levchenko E. V. , Kuzminov V. S. 
Published: February 2025

The significance of the studied problem is determined by the high prevalence of asthenic syndrome, which accompanies numerous somatic and psychosomatic pathologies. It is believed that asthenia is more common among the female population, but this is apparently related to physiological processes occurring in a woman’s body.Objective of the study: to examine the prevalence of asthenic syndrome among men and women according to age.Material and methods. The study involved 387 respondents who were required to fill out a questionnaire based on the “Subjective Assessment Scale for Asthenia (MFI20).” The MFI-20 allows for the identification of a range of conditions in respondents: general asthenia, reduced activity, decreased motivation, physical, and mental asthenia with a total score exceeding 12 in each subscale.Results. In the studied sample, asthenia was identified equally among both women and men. General asthenia was observed in just under half of the respondents, being more common among women (48.8%) than among men (29.1%) (p < 0.01). Reduced activity was noted in approximately one-third of respondents and was equally prevalent among men (14.9 ± 1.8) and women (15.1 ± 2.0), accounting for 29.1% and 32.9%, respectively. A decrease in the motivational sphere was observed in only 14.2% of respondents, with similar rates for both men and women, around 14%. Physical asthenia was identified in one-third of respondents (32.9%), but this condition was significantly more common among women (28.2%) than among men, where it was observed almost twice as infrequently at 16.3%, with average scores on the specified subscale of 14.8 ± 1.9 and 14.7 ± 1.3, respectively (p < 0.05). Mental asthenia was determined in 21.5% of respondents, occurring in 17.4% (14.9 ± 1.8) of surveyed men and 22.6% (15.2 ± 1.7) of women.Conclusion. The prevalence of asthenia among men and women remains high to this day and requires them to adjust their daily routines, regimes of physical and mental labor, and leisure activities.

Microscopic examination showed interstitial edema and muscle fi bers lacking cross-striations, with signs of intracellular edema.Conclusion: This clinical case demonstrates spontaneous rupture in the thinned area of a chronic aneurysm during a type 2 myocardial infarction (against a background of metabolic disorders) in the context of viral pneumonia due to COVID-19.
Immigrant Gambling in Finland
Authors: Crentsil Perpetual 
Published: February 2025

An anthropological study of gambling among immigrant groups in Finland can reveal much about how the society organizes its way of life in categories elevant for the economist, sociologist, political scientist and the historian. Anthropological studies of other aspects of immigrants’ lives—remittance giving, socio-economic status, and development issues in origin countries—usually present immigrants as ethnographic subjects. These lives are situated in specific historical and social conditions that represent particular images based on certain cultural values in their native homelands and in the place of settlement. Immigrant gambling has every potential to add to this corpus of knowledge.

Abstract
Taking the practices of reindeer ear- and fur-marking in northern European Russia and Western Siberia as its primary focus, this article analyses modifications of informal “traditional” practices as a part of their appropriation by state institutions and highly bureaucratized state-owned enterprises. The practice of making and reading ear- and fur-marks is highly situated and workable only when embedded in a wider web of social communication. Analyzing three cases of the practice in formal institutions, we show that the modifications represent attempts to eliminate the situatedness and embeddedness of the practice. Some modifications can be explained by the attempt to extend the scope of the practice to the level of individuals, but this has made the practice unworkable without reference to special databases and is useless for reindeer herders.

Published: February 2025

PurposeThe primary objective of this study was to investigate the prevalence and characteristics of tinnitus related to COVID-19 vaccination. Specifically, we aimed to assess the impact of COVID-19 vaccination on the onset and severity of tinnitus, including changes in loudness, pitch, anxiety, and speech perception. Additionally, we sought to identify potential risk factors associated with new-onset tinnitus and the exacerbation of pre-existing symptoms.DesignA comprehensive survey was administered to 372 individuals who reported new-onset tinnitus or worsening of pre-existing tinnitus following COVID-19 vaccination. Data on tinnitus characteristics before and after COVID-19 vaccination were collected. The survey documented pre-existing medical conditions, and changes in tinnitus loudness, pitch, and related anxiety. Respondents were divided into two groups: those with pre-existing tinnitus and those with new-onset tinnitus following vaccination. Statistical analyses were conducted to compare changes across these groups and to explore associations with vaccine type (mRNA vs. non-mRNA) and pre-existing medical conditions.ResultsOf the respondents, 53% with pre-existing tinnitus reported worsened symptoms following vaccination, with significant increases in loudness, pitch, and anxiety. Additionally, 47% of respondents developed new-onset tinnitus, with this group reporting higher severity and anxiety levels compared to those with pre-existing tinnitus. There was no significant difference in tinnitus onset latency between mRNA vaccines (Pfizer and Moderna) and non-mRNA vaccines (Johnson &amp; Johnson). Pandemic-related anxiety was identified as a contributing factor to the exacerbation of tinnitus symptoms.ConclusionsThe results indicate that COVID-19 vaccination is associated with an increased risk of both new-onset tinnitus and worsening pre-existing tinnitus. Significant increases in tinnitus loudness, pitch, and anxiety post-vaccination, along with challenges in speech perception, emphasize the need for further research into the auditory effects of COVID-19 vaccination. Identifying risk factors, such as underlying health conditions and psychological stress, will be crucial in developing strategies for the management and treatment of tinnitus in vaccinated individuals.

Published: February 2025

Tumors, as a disease that seriously threatens human health, have always been a major challenge in the field of medicine. Currently, the main methods of tumor treatment include surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, etc., but these traditional treatment methods often have certain limitations. In addition, tumor recurrence and metastasis are also difficult problems faced in clinical treatment. In this context, the importance of metal-based nanomaterials in tumor therapy is increasingly highlighted. Metal-based nanomaterials possess unique physical, chemical, and biological properties, providing new ideas and methods for tumor treatment. Metal-based nanomaterials can achieve targeted therapy for tumors through various mechanisms, reducing damage to normal tissues; they can also serve as drug carriers, improving the stability and bioavailability of drugs; at the same time, some metal-based nanomaterials also have photothermal, photodynamic, and other characteristics, which can be used for phototherapy of tumors. This review examines the latest advances in the application of metal-based nanomaterials in tumor therapy within past 5 years, and presents prospective insights into the future applications.

Published: February 2025

IntroductionPneumocystis pneumonia (PCP) is a common and serious complication of HIV/AIDS, with a higher prevalence in patients not receiving antiretroviral therapy. Due to the high mortality rate of PCP, accurate prediction of its case fatality rate is very important for clinical treatment. We aimed to develop a risk model for the near-term prognosis of people with HIV/AIDS and PCP and verify its effectiveness.MethodsThis single-center, retrospective observational study was conducted at Beijing Youan Hospital from January 2012 to October 2022. 972 AIDS patients with Pneumocystis pneumonia met our criteria were recruited. The patients were divided into death group and survival group according to clinical outcome during hospitalization. Data of the two groups were collected including general information and laboratory test results. 53 medical characteristics of the two groups were collected. Prediction variables were screened with Multivariate logistic regression analysis and Lasso regression model. We used ROC curve to identify the discrimination of training and testing data sets. The Shapley Additive exPlanation (SHAP) method was applied to explain the final model and the weights of features.ResultsThe overall mortality rate among hospitalized patients was 17.8%. We found that the best prediction effect can be obtained when ALB, PO2, TBIL, LDH, CD4+ T lymphocyte counts are incorporated into the PCP risk prediction model. The model had a perfect discrimination with AUC of 0.994 and 0.947 in training and validation cohorts. The prognosis risk grade was divided into three grades: low-risk group (0-25 points with mortality of 5.9%), moderate-risk group (25-50 points with mortality of 45.1%) and high-risk group (above 50 points with mortality of 80%). There is a statistically significant difference in mortality among these three grades (χ2 = 419.271, P&lt;0.001).ConclusionWe developed and validated a model of the prognostic risk level of PCP in patients of AIDS with the results of blood tests reviewed by patients at routine visits. The model is more convenient to use, allowing clinicians to obtain a determined probability value of PCP mortality with simple calculations within the first 72 hours of the patient’s admission.

Published: February 2025

IntroductionDecision-making based on AI can be challenging, especially when considering the uncertainty associated with AI predictions. Visualizing uncertainty in AI refers to techniques that use visual cues to represent the level of confidence or uncertainty in an AI model's outputs, such as predictions or decisions. This study aims to investigate the impact of visualizing uncertainty on decision-making and trust in AI.MethodsWe conducted a user study with 147 participants, utilizing static classic gaming scenarios as a proxy for human-AI collaboration in decision-making. The study measured changes in decisions, trust in AI, and decision-making confidence when uncertainty was visualized in a continuous format compared to a binary output of the AI model.ResultsOur findings indicate that visualizing uncertainty significantly enhances trust in AI for 58% of participants with negative attitudes toward AI. Additionally, 31% of these participants found uncertainty visualization to be useful. The size of the uncertainty visualization was identified as the method that had the most impact on participants' trust in AI and their confidence in their decisions. Furthermore, we observed a strong association between participants' gaming experience and changes in decision-making when uncertainty was visualized, as well as a strong link between trust in AI and individual attitudes toward AI.DiscussionThese results suggest that visualizing uncertainty can improve trust in AI, particularly among individuals with negative attitudes toward AI. The findings also have important implications for the design of human-AI decision-support systems, offering insights into how uncertainty can be visualized to enhance decision-making and user confidence.

This article summarizes the work performed by the authors in developing, during the last 2 years, several portable and wireless sensor systems that allowed the analysis of signals collected from multiple sensors based on the Internet of Things (IoT) in emergency contexts. These include fires and earthquakes, situations in which citizens suffer from poor health; participation of individuals in highly physical sports; or cases of materials used in buildings and other structures being subjected to high stress due to natural catastrophes other than the aforementioned fires and earthquakes. Novel material sensors like MXene paper or wallpaper-based ones used as fire detectors and operating remotely via Wi-Fi and LoRa are presented. Furthermore, a Wi-Fi communication system, physically connected to a commercial micro-controller, monitored the temperature and luminosity data. Other devices, such as IoT wireless systems operating under the LoRa protocol in the 868-MHz and 2.4-GHz band region and using RFM95 radio modules as possible risk advisers, are described. For the latter, the sensors integrated were triboelectric energy nanogenerators (TENGs). In addition, TENG smart masks with LoRa emitters were used and played an important role in risk mitigation. As novel systems, an STM32 LoRa board allowed monitoring of the health (heart rate and oxygen saturation) of athletes involved in combat sports, with a nano-IoT Arduino 33 chip being used for monitoring the electrical resistance change in some composite materials. Some of these developments, especially the previously mentioned one, can play an important role in structural health monitoring (SHM) by examining the mechanical properties during service operations in aviation or aerospace fields. A comparison of these systems allowed them to be classified according to the most fitting application.
