Published: January 2024

WprowadzenieWybuch pandemii i skupienie opieki zdrowotnej na całym świecie na walce z wirusem SARS-CoV-2 przyczyniły się do powstania zaniedbań w innych dziedzinach medycyny, w tym leczenia niedosłuchu. Ponadto, ze względu na panujące obostrzenia, dostęp do wypracowanych przez lata procedur rehabilitacji słuchu był utrudniony. Stacjonarne zajęcia terapeutyczne przeprowadzano przy użyciu środków ochrony osobistej, które chroniąc przed zakażeniem, jednocześnie znacząco utrudniały komunikację osobom z niedosłuchem. Dodatkowo sytuacje dnia codziennego, tj. rozmowa z kasjerem w sklepie lub z lekarzem w pokoju badań, również stały się większym wyzwaniem ze względu na wymóg stosowania, m.in. maseczek ochronnych. Celem tej pracy było sprawdzenie, czy zmiana warunków życia codziennego spowodowana pandemią wpłynęła na różnice postrzegania przez użytkowników implantu ślimakowego swoich ograniczeń w funkcjonowaniu słuchowym, a zwłaszcza w komunikacji werbalnej.Materiał i metodyMateriał badawczy stanowiły dwie grupy dorosłych pacjentów Instytutu Fizjologii i Patologii Słuchu (IFPS) z postlingwalnym niedosłuchem, korzystających z sytemu implantu ślimakowego, po 189 osób każda, w sumie 378 osób (207 kobiet i 171 mężczyzn) w wieku od 18 do 88 lat, średnia wieku = 54. Przeprowadzono badanie porównawcze pomiędzy obydwiema grupami. Do grupy badanej zakwalifikowano pacjentów, u których w czasie pandemii, w okresie od 4 czerwca 2020 r. do 10 marca 2022 dokonano oceny postrzeganych subiektywnie ograniczeń w funkcjonowaniu słuchowym. Grupę porównawczą stanowili użytkownicy systemu implantu ślimakowego, u których ocena postrzeganych ograniczeń w funkcjonowaniu słuchowym została przeprowadzona przed
wybuchem pandemii. Do oceny funkcjonowania słuchowego wykorzystano kwestionariusz oceny korzyści słuchowych APHAB. Każdy z respondentów wypełniał kwestionariusz dwukrotnie – dla warunków „bez implantu” i „z implantem”. Analizie poddano wynik
całkowity kwestionariusza oraz wyniki uzyskane w poszczególnych podskalach składające się na ten wynik.WynikiAnaliza statystyczna nie wykazała istotnych różnic pomiędzy grupami w żadnej z badanych podskali dla warunku bez implantu. Z kolei dla warunku z implantem analiza wykazała istotne różnice, które dotyczyły wyniku całkowitego oraz podskali odnoszącej się do trudności w komunikowaniu się w sprzyjających warunkach akustycznych. Świadczy to o większych problemach odczuwanych przez pacjentów w trakcie pandemii. Nie zaobserwowano istotnych różnic pomiędzy grupami w pozostałych podskalach.WnioskiNiewielka różnica pomiędzy wynikami obydwu grup, przy znacznym wzroście trudności w funkcjonowaniu słuchowym spowodowanym wprowadzeniem maseczek i obowiązkowego dystansu społecznego, może być uznawana za sukces i dowód na skuteczność postępowania leczniczo-rehabilitacyjnego z wykorzystaniem implantów ślimakowych prowadzonego mimo trwającej pandemii.

Authors: Pastucha Małgorzata , Pilka Edyta , Skarżyński Henryk , Jędrzejczak Wiesław W. 
Published: January 2024

WprowadzenieNowoczesne technologie, zwłaszcza aplikacje mobilne, są coraz częściej wykorzystywane w różnych sektorach zdrowia publicznego. Aplikacje te nie tylko pozwalają na szybsze umówienie wizyty lekarskiej, lecz także stanowią doskonałą bazę do podejmowania szerokich działań profilaktycznych. Widoczne jest to również w dziedzinie audiologii, w której aplikacje mobilne są coraz częściej wykorzystywane w badaniach przesiewowych słuchu czy do kontrolowania nawyków słuchowych.CelSprawdzenie za pomocą pomiaru emisji otoakustycznych (OAE), czy aplikacja mobilna w odpowiedni sposób informuje o możliwości narażenia słuchu na nadmierną ekspozycję na hałas przy zbyt długim słuchaniu muzyki. Wykorzystano aplikację HearAngel, która monitoruje muzyczne treści multimedialne odtwarzane na urządzeniu mobilnym.Materiał i metodyAplikację przetestowano na 1 osobie z normą słuchową, słuchającej muzyki na urządzeniu mobilnym z systemem Android. Sprawdzano wpływ długości ekspozycji muzycznej na stan narządu słuchu. W tym celu wykorzystano badanie emisji otoakustycznych (OAE). Zmierzono trzy rodzaje OAE: OAE wywołane trzaskiem (CEOAE), OAE produktów zniekształceń (DPOAE)
i emisje spontaniczne (SOAE). Do oszacowania czasu ekspozycji muzycznej posłużono się wewnętrzną miarą aplikacji – tzw. dzienną dawką dźwięku (DSA). Pomiary OAE wykonano dla: 100% DSA, 100% DSA + 10 minut, 100% DSA + 30 minut, 7 godzin.WynikiNiewielkie przekroczenie dziennego limitu wyliczonego za pomocą aplikacji nie powoduje znaczących zmian w poziomach odpowiedzi OAE. Pewne różnice są zauważalne dopiero po kilkugodzinnej ekspozycji na muzykę. Największe zmiany nastąpiły w SOAE. Amplituda wszystkich SOAE spadła dla DSA + 30 minut i dla 7 h.WnioskiWydaje się, że aplikacja HearAngel może być przydatnym narzędziem do monitorowania narażenia na hałas podczas słuchania muzyki na urządzeniach mobilnych. Jej działanie opiera się na pomiarach zarówno głośności, jak i czasu słuchania wybranych utworów muzycznych. Uzyskane wyniki są obiecujące i zachęcają do prowadzenia dalszych badań. SOAE wydają się najbardziej czułym na zmiany w układzie słuchowym typem OAE.

Authors: Et. al. D. T. Muhamadiyeva, 
Published: January 2024

A fuzzy algorithm for adaptive enhancement of image contrasts is considered, which is a characteristic of how wide the spread of the colors of image pixels is. The greater the spread of the pixel color values, the greater the contrast of the image. The main disadvantages of images, in most cases, are distorted brightness characteristics and low contrast. Therefore, the work is devoted to improving the contrasts of the image and converting the image to this form, which makes them more contrasting and, accordingly, more informative.

Published: January 2024

Currently, there is a need to develop a reliable and valid social skills observation instrument in monitoring the progress of social skills among students with ASD in teaching and learning within school setting. This is because positive and acceptable social skills are very important aspects for students with ASD. Moreover, students with ASD who hold a strong foundation in social skills shown an improvement in academic, independent living and social acceptance by the society. The instrument was based on structured observations and there were three steps involved: (a) instrument selection, (b) item selection, and (c) validity and reliability instrument. These steps were to ensure the development of instrument was appropriate to specifically measure the progress of social skills within specific domain namely: social interaction, social communication, emotional intelligence and social behavior. The instrument was namely as “Social Skills for Autism Spectrum Disorder (SS-ASD)”. Accordingly, the SS-ASD was given to 2 subject experts and 1 curriculum specialist to establish content validity and face validity. Hence, the SS-ASD instrument had established construct validity through homogeneity (internal consistency) by calculating the value of Cronbach’s alpha (α) through pilot study data. Finally, the Cronbach’s Alpha value for SS-ASD was 0.986 and it was highly reliable. The SS-ASD were developed suitable for children between ages 3 to 12 years old as a criterion-based instrument. Hopefully, its help students with ASD establish proficiency in social skills that create social acceptance and independent living in the future for students with ASD.

A Review Article On Mathematical Aspects Of Nonlinear Models
Authors: Et. al. B. Mahaboob, 
Published: January 2024

The main objective of this review article is to propose some mathematical aspects of nonlinear models. In mathematics, nonlinear modelling is empirical or semi-empirical modelling which takes at least some nonlinearities into account. Nonlinear modelling in practice therefore means modelling of phenomena in which independent variables affecting the system can show complex and synergetic nonlinear effects. Contrary to traditional modelling methods, such as linear regression and basic statistical methods, nonlinear modelling can be utilized efficiently in a vast number of situations where traditional modelling is impractical or impossible. This review article mainly explores on mathematical preliminaries of nonlinear models, solution of algebraic and transcendental equations and solution of system of nonlinear equations. In addition to these Taylor polynomial and finite difference operators, least - squares polynomial approximation and the roots of the equations are also discussed here.

Published: January 2024

The quality of mathematics education in Indonesia is of great concern. This is proven based on the survey results conducted by international survey institutions such as PISA and TIMSS and national survey institutions such as ACTION. This conclusion is strengthened by the fact that the UN scores for junior high and high school levels have decreased. Improving the quality of mathematics education in Indonesia, especially among Muslims, research on the relationship of students' persistence in performing worship with their high-level thinking skills was conducted. The purpose of this research is to (1) Formulating the application of the 7 Sunnahs of the Prophet Muhammad S.A.W. in mathematics using Higher-Order Thinking Skills (HOTS). (2) Analyzing the effect of implementing the 7 Sunnahs of the Prophet Muhammad S.A.W. in improving students' higher-order thinking skills/HOTS. (3) Analyzing the practice of worship that is most influential in the implementation of the 7 Sunnahs that affect the higher-order thinking skill/HOTS.
This study uses a quantitative approach with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, surveys, questionnaires, and documentation. The data is processed and analyzed using a computer as a tool and using the SPSS 16 for Windows program to determine the correlation of existing data. The research resulted in (1) A model of implementing the 7 Sunnahs in mathematics learning. The lesson begins with reciting surah Al-Fatihah, praying to the prophet, praying before studying, reciting Asmaul Husna, and reciting short surah in the Quran and ends with the advice to motivate students to be persistent in carrying out worship. (2) The implementation of the 7 sunnah that has significant influences is tahajud pray while the achievement of the competition that has a significant influence are KMNR competition, OSN competition, and International competition (3) The implementation of the 7 Sunnah that has significant influences are congregational pray, Dhuha prays, almsgiving, reading the Qur'an, sunnah fasting and maintaining ablution. This study found that the spiritual activity approach influenced improving students' higher-order thinking skills in mathematics. This learning model can be used in various non-formal educational institutions with having the same vision. This learning model can also be applied in formal education after being adapted to the situation and conditions of the school.

Published: January 2024

Elasticsearch is most popular search engine which is based on Apache Lucene. Many advantages are identified with the Elasticsearch. For every inserted document or record the Elasticsearch’s auto-generated id values are created. But this may leads to increasing the duplicate values. To overcome this various duplicate methods are introduced by various researchers. Indexing is very important for the elastic search removing duplicates in elastic is based on indexing. For this Lucene Index and Translog are used. This can be used for all types of data in Elastic search. Many researchers working on removing duplicates and shards from the data. But still there is lot of corrupted shards is present in output. To overcome this, A Two way Refining Algorithm (TWRA) is introduced to remove the extra corrupted shards for extra refinement of data. The TWRA consists of two refinements of data such as Advanced Advanced Data Cleaning and Advanced Data Filtering Algorithm. Experimental results show the performance of the proposed methodology.
