Published: October 2023

Introdução: A busca pelo corpo ideal, há anos, é preocupação da sociedade, principalmente para as mulheres. A disposição da gordura corporal é influenciada por fatores hormonais, hereditários, características pessoais em geral, hábitos de alimentação e sedentarismo. Seu acúmulo é ocasionado pela grande ingestão de alimentos e baixo gasto calórico, caracterizando uma das maiores queixas da atualidade: a gordura localizada, principalmente na região abdominal. Existem diversas técnicas que visam o tratamento dessa afecção, dentre as quais, destaca-se a eletrolipólise, que objetiva a redução da lipodistrofia abdominal por meio de estímulos elétricos de baixa intensidade, promovendo a lise da membrana das células de gordura e posterior eliminação deste conteúdo intracelular. Materiais e Métodos: Estudo de casos múltiplos experimental e longitudinal, de análise quantitativa. A amostra foi composta por 19 mulheres adultas com idades entre 18 e 59 anos (média: 29,9; DP: 4,2), com gordura abdominal, onde foram realizadas quatro aplicações de eletrolipólise na frequência de 30Hz, em uma largura de pulso de 250 microssegundos por 40 minutos. As voluntárias permaneceram 4 horas em jejum antes da realização da primeira sessão da técnica e responderam a um breve questionário e, após, foi realizada a coleta sanguínea para avaliação de perfil lipídico e aferição de medidas corporais, peso e altura para cálculo de IMC (índice de massa corporal), além da circunferência abdominal e aferição de prega cutânea. Resultados: Para comparação entre os grupos foi utilizado o teste t de Student. Observou-se diferença na avaliação das pacientes, antes e depois das sessões de eletrolipólise, no que diz respeito aos níveis de colesterol, triglicerídeos, HDL (lipoproteína de alta densidade) e LDL (lipoproteína de baixa densidade), bem como, diminuição das medidas do contorno corporal das participantes. Em todos os casos, os resultados foram considerados estatisticamente significativos, quando p<0,05. Conclusão: A aplicação da técnica de eletrolipólise conforme o delineamento metodológico adotado, mostrou resultados positivos para os parâmetros analisados.

Code mixing among Tunisian university students
Authors: Khammari Hassen 
Published: October 2023

The study sheds light on the phenomenon of code mixing among Tunisian university students and the factors motivating it. The study uses a qualitative descriptive approach by describing and analyzing the forms of code mixing used in everyday conversation. Muysken’s (2000) code mixing framework is used to classify and analyze the data.
The findings showed that code mixing reflects the Tunisians’ awareness of the bilingual and multicultural nature of society. Code mixing is also a way of gaining social prestige. Mixing codes among friends, in school, in everyday encounters, and even at home is also attributed to the speakers’ innate expectation to use more than one code to communicate and interact.
Pragmatic Markers Used by Saudi Undergraduate EFL Learners in Oral Classroom Presentations at Albaha University
Authors: Alzahrani Saeed Abdullah 
Published: October 2023

The current study investigated the use of pragmatic markers during oral classroom presentations by Saudi Arabian undergraduate EFL learners at Albaha University, Saudi Arabia. The use of pragmatic markers in academic contexts such as presentations is significant as failure to use these markers can cause poor comprehension by audience members and instructors who are tasked with grading such work. The method involved categorising and sub-categorising the pragmatic markers used as well as the linguistic meanings and pragmatic functions of these markers. The data were collected using audio recordings of students' oral presentations and were analysed based on Fraser’s (1996) classification and functions of pragmatic markers. A sample (n=20) of Saudi undergraduate EFL learners participated in this study (males: n=10; females: n=10). The results show that in their oral presentations, Saudi EFL undergraduate students tend to use deference and paraphrase markers most frequently, which may reflect Saudi religious and cultural conventions. However, the students’ use of interjections, pausing, and cohesion in their presentations was poor. There is a need to help Saudi Arabian undergraduate EFL learners improve their knowledge and use of pragmatic markers so they can make better oral presentations both at university and in their future careers.

Published: October 2023

The aim of the work was to study in a chronic experiment the effect of intranasal progesterone administration on the specifics of behavioral (aggressive and submissive) reactions of rats with alcohol dependence during agonistic encounters. It was shown that the intranasal administration of progesterone to aggressive rats with alcohol dependence under conditions of long-term psychoemotional consequences of zoosocial confrontational interactions led to a decrease in aggressive motivational reactions (the number and total time of attacks); rats with a subordinate type of behavior with alcohol addiction — to a decrease in quantitative and time indicators of passive-defensive behavior. The features of the anxiolytic and hypnotic effects of progesterone on the emotional behavior of aggressive and submissive rats with alcohol dependence were revealed.

Evaluation of the efficiency of the program of combined psychocorrection of the persons performing the function of caring for patients with dementia
Authors: Orlova Olha , Zhyvotovska Liliia 
Published: October 2023

The purpose of this work was to evaluate the effectiveness of the step-by-step psychocorrection program for caregivers of patients with dementia by studying the dynamics of clinicalpsychopathological manifestations and the level of social functioning. With the help of sociodemographic, clinical-psychopathological, psychodiagnostic and statistical examination methods, 104 caregivers (100 women, 4 men) and 104 patients with dementia were examined on the basis of the PI “Regional institution for the provision of psychiatric care of the Poltava Regional Council”. Caregiver inclusion criteria were: signed informed consent, age of caregivers 25 years or older, caring for one patient with dementia and being with him at least 5 times a week, at least 4 hours a day. According to modern clinical interpretations, dementia is a clinical syndrome, usually chronic or prone to progression, characterized by a complex of manifestations in the form of disorders of memory, attention, thinking, gnosis, praxis, speech, psyche, behavior, social functioning and a pronounced decrease in the quality of life. The lack of formed pro-social networks and the lack of social support, both from the family and from friends, makes caregivers more vulnerable to stress factors. The obtained data were used as a basis for the development of a programs of complex phased psychocorrection. In a situation of deterioration of the patient's condition, the burden on the caregiver also increases. The fact of maladjustment of patients with dementia is a very relevant issue, because this disease not only reduces the quality of life of patients, but also leads to large non-material and material costs due to the need for long-term and constant care for a sick relative with a severe or moderate course of dementia.

Published: October 2023

The aim of the study is analysis of surgical care for epilepsy patients in Ukraine from 2014 to 2020. The results of the surgical treatment of epilepsy patients in three leading neurosurgical institutions of Ukraine, which regularly perform epilepsy surgery were analyzed. They are Romodanov neurosurgery institute (Kyiv), Regional Clinical Center of Neurosurgery and Neurology (Uzhhorod) and Dnipropetrovsk Clinical Psychiatric Hospital (Dnipro). A questionnaire was used to obtain information on the quantity and types of surgical operations carried out in the aforementioned institutions between 2014 and 2020. From 2014 to 2018, surgical treatment was performed on 320 patients, in 2019 — 112 patients, and in 2020 — 61. The etiology of seizures was analyzed, where mesial temporal sclerosis overall years had an advantage over other causes of drug-resistant epilepsy. Accordingly, amygdalohypocampectomy accounted for the majority of surgical interventions in all years, however, other etiological factors and types of surgical treatment were also analyzed in detail. The number of patients who require surgical treatment is increasing. It is necessary to carefully refine the stages of preoperative preparation of patients in order to provide the patient with full-fledged medical care and to be able to perform a detailed analysis of surgical treatment. To achieve this goal, it was decided to develop a registry of epilepsy patients who received surgical treatment, which will allow to fully structure all the information received, track postoperative patients, and clearly evaluate the effectiveness of this type of treatment.

Neuroimaging aspects in encephalopathies of various genesis
Authors: Duve Khrystyna , Shkrobot Svitlana 
Published: October 2023

This article is devoted to the analysis of the neuroimaging picture of the most common types of encephalopathies. In particular, in 2021 and 2022, we examined 520 patients with post-traumatic encephalopathy (TE) (n = 145), vascular encephalopathy (VE) in case of chronic brain ischemia (n = 145), alcoholic encephalopathy (AE) (n = 102), and post-infectious encephalopathy (PIE) (n = 128). We studied the neuroimaging characteristics of each of these subtypes, their features and frequency. Thus, we established that the most frequent expansion of the ventricles was observed in patients with VE (53.79 %), which probably exceeded the similar indicator in patients with TE (by 26.89 %), with AE (by 15.55 %) and from PIE (by 37.38 %). Expansion of the subarachnoid spaces was equally common in the groups of patients with TE (38.62 %) and VE (40.00 %), with a probable difference in relation to the group with PIE (7.81 %). Patients with AE (60.78 %) had significantly more frequent manifestations of gliosis than patients with TE (47.59 %). The highest frequency of cystic changes was observed in the group with TE (45.05 %), which significantly exceeded the indicators of other groups. The correlations between neuroimaging changes and clinical syndromes were clarified.

Clinical analysis of qualitative and quantitative pain characteristics in patients with acute and chronic vertebrogenic lumbosacral pain syndromes
Authors: Kulyk Andrii , Paienok Anzhelika 
Published: October 2023

Diverse approaches exist for diagnosing and treating patients afflicted with acute and chronic low back pain syndromes (LBP), thereby necessitating a comprehensive evaluation of the pain syndrome and a meticulous analysis of the neuropathic component to enhance our scholarly comprehension of the distinct differences in pain progression among these individuals. A total of 125 individuals (56 females and 69 males) diagnosed with vertebral lumbar pain syndromes (LBP), aged between 20 and 68 years (42.8 ± 11.1 years), underwent comprehensive evaluation. Stratification into two distinct groups was based on the duration of the pain syndrome: an acute pain group (pain lasting up to 3 months) and a chronic pain group (pain persisting beyond 3 months). Pain assessment, administered upon hospitalization, involved utilizing of well-established tools such as the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), DN4 Questionnaire, and McGill Pain Questionnaire. The initial pain intensity, measured by VAS upon admission, was recorded as 7.15 ± 1.17 in the acute pain group and 6.08 ± 0.96 in the chronic pain group. Analysis of responses to the DN4 questionnaire revealed that patients with acute pain syndrome obtained an average score of 2.26 ± 1.01, whereas those in the chronic pain group scored 4.53 ± 1.02. The presence of a neuropathic component was identified in 38 % of patients with acute pain and 56 % of patients with chronic pain. Correlational analyses indicated a weak positive correlation (r = 0.12, p < 0.05) between VAS scores and the assessment of neuropathic pain using the DN4 questionnaire in the acute pain group. However, the chronic pain group observed a moderate positive correlation (r = 0.41, p < 0.001). Patients experiencing chronic LBP expressed their pain sensations in a more emotionally descriptive manner. Notably, the chronic pain group exhibited a statistically significant elevation in the number of selected descriptors according to the Index of Chosen Descriptors (ICD) on the sensory scale, as well as an increased Pain Rank Index (PRI) on both sensory and affective scales, compared to the acute pain group. To summarize, individuals with chronic LBP exhibit a more prevalence of the neuropathic component. Moreover, patients in the chronic pain group demonstrated higher scores indicative of sensory and psychosocial aspects of pain.
