Background and Study Aim. It can be said that recently, with the popularity of women's football and playing at a professional level, physical and physiological needs have increased. In this context, this study was conducted to examine the relationship between isokinetic lower extremity strength and vertical jump parameters in elite female football players.
Material and Methods. The model of the research was the relational survey model, one of the survey models. The research group consisted of 26 volunteer professional female football players competing at the Turkish women's super league level. The maximum strength of the knee extensor and flexor muscles of female soccer players was measured using an isokinetic dynamometer device (Cybex NORM®, Humac, CA, USA) that allows the recording of instant isokinetic torque. The vertical jump test data of the female football players were determined with the Fusion Sport-Smart Jump brand jump mat. While SPSS 25.0 package program was used for statistical analysis evaluation, correlation analysis was applied to compare the relationship between isokinetic lower extremity strength and vertical jump parameter.
Results. When the participants' vertical jump, right knee flexion and extension degrees were examined, a moderate positive correlation was found between the vertical jump parameter and the 240s Flexion Right %Body Weight values, and no relationship was found between the other parameters and the vertical jump. A moderate positive correlation was detected between the vertical jump parameter and 240s Flexion Left %Body Weight. Another moderate positive correlation was found between the vertical jump parameter and 240s Extension Left %Body Weight values. At the same time, no relation was found between other parameters and vertical jumps.
Conclusions. As a result, when the study results were evaluated, a positive relationship was determined between vertical jump and right knee flexion parameters and similarly left knee flexion-extension parameters. Based on this situation, it was concluded that the contraction levels of the lower extremity strength, which plays an important role in determining the performance in the football branch, contribute positively to the jump performance.

Authors: Kędracka Malwina 
Published: June 2023

W obliczu rosyjskiej agresji na Ukrainę jej obywatele zostali zmuszeni szukać schronienia poza granicami swojej ojczyzny, również w Polsce. Terytorium Ukrainy zamieszkują przede wszystkim osoby deklarujące się jako prawosławni lub wierni Ukraińskiego Kościoła Grekokatolickiego. W kontekście powyższego uaktualnia się potrzeba przypomnienia zasad dotyczących form niesienia duchowej pociechy przez łacińskich duszpasterzy wiernym Kościołów wschodnich. Artykuł został podzielony na dwie części. Pierwsza z nich poświęcona jest zasadom udzielania posług religijnych w perspektywie międzyobrządkowej, a więc udzielanych przez łacińskich duszpasterzy katolikom wschodnim. Druga część traktuje o regułach udzielania sakramentów, sakramentaliów oraz udostępniania miejsc i przedmiotów umożliwiających sprawowanie kultu Bożego chrześcijanom prawosławnym. W pracy przywołano prawne regulacje zawarte w Kodeksie Prawa Kanonicznego z 1983 r., Kodeksie Kanonów Kościołów Wschodnich, Dyrektorium ekumenicznym z 1993 r. oraz – również w celu ich popularyzacji – dokumentach Rad Konferencji Episkopatu Polski.

Introduction:As an innovative procedure, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) 2.0, which is based on standard EMDR, draws attention with its promising results. The adaptation of EMDR 2.0 to groups will be a significant contribution to the psychology literature. Considering the effectiveness of EMDR 2.0 on individual applications, this is a preliminary study that aims to explore the role of EMDR 2.0 on groups by developing the EMDR 2.0 group protocol (EMDR 2.0 GP).Methods:In this pilot study, EMDR 2.0 GP is applied to a group of seven participants who had been exposed to a traffic incident. The role of EMDR 2.0 GP (three sessions; 3.5 hours in total) on posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms, depression, anxiety, and stress was measured. The Impact of Event Scale—Revised and the Depression-Anxiety-Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21) were used to assess these symptoms at pretreatment, one-week posttreatment, and one-month posttreatment.Results:The participants (mean age = 47.14 ± 9.65) with a traffic accident experience (mean of the time elapsed = 88.57 ± 38.24 months) received EMDR 2.0 GP. Results showed that the EMDR 2.0 group had significantly lower depression (χ² [2,n= 7] = 9.364,p= .009, Kendall’sW= .668) and stress (χ² [2,n= 7] = 8.667,p= .013, Kendall’sW= .619) on the subscales of DASS-21 and lower intrusions (χ² [2,n= 7] = 6.333,p= .042, Kendall’sW= .452), avoidance (χ² [2,n= 7] = 7.280,p= .026, Kendall’sW= .520), and hyperarousal (χ² [2,n= 7]) = 10.800,p= .005, Kendall’sW= .771) at posttreatment.Conclusion:The pilot study of EMDR 2.0 GP indicated that this newly developed protocol that was first applied to the group may be effective in reducing depression, stress, and PTSD symptoms among a nonclinical sample. This pilot study supports future randomized controlled EMDR GP applications.

Published: June 2023

The present work presents and discusses an analysis of the floor types of Villa of Diomedes (Pompeii archaeological park in the Campania region, Italy) both from architectural, archaeological, and structural point of view. In particular, the geometrical structural parameters of different floor types and the rules used by ancient builders to design them are investigated by means of interdisciplinary research. Link between structural-based assumptions, archival sources, geometric survey, in situ visual inspections and the archaeological information make it possible to define the geometrical structural parameters of eleven-barrel vaults, three wooden floors and three sloped wooden roofs (buried and collapsed during the Vesuvius eruption). A specific study of the barrel vaults is presented to investigate the relationships between the main vaults’ structural parameter. Furthermore, a comparison between the vaults’ dimensions obtained from surveys and those produced by the literature formulations from the 15th to the 20th centuries concerning masonry-vault designs is presented and discussed.
These analyses carried out in the framework of Villa of Diomedes interdisciplinary project was very useful to interpret the fabrication of the Villa and to make a reconstruction of 3D model as it probably resulted to be the fateful year of 79 A.D.
Development of Advanced Electric Submersible Pumps to Meet Today’s Challenges

Published: June 2023

Abstract
ESP technology has been incrementally evolving for many years now and can be considered a mature technology for well lifting applications. However, despite improvements, longevity of ESP equipment is still relatively poor, many of the reasons for which are rooted in the basic arrangement of the ESP motor – seal – pump – cable architecture that was developed over 80 years ago for land based well applications and using a historical business model based on commodity volumes.
With the increasing shift towards high CAPEX and OPEX offshore wells, often involving deep waters, large setting depths, high production rates, extensive well barrier requirements and more complex fluid reservoirs, the application of traditional ESPs is therefore compromised. Average run-life remains relatively short and the financial impact on OPEX of workovers is high, introducing significant deferred production and unacceptable economic risks to the business case for many of today’s challenging wells.
A Statoil development initiative to develop an Advanced ESP (AESP) is therefore under way on two fronts; firstly to redesign the current machinery arrangements so that many of the key failure modes are eliminated and secondly to address the overall deployment and retrievability of improved ESPs inside the production tubing.
The first development, the AESP, will focus on three main machinery elements:
- Development of a compact, high speed self-contained pump end
- Elimination of the current interconnecting shaft sealing system
- Application of new step change compact motor technology
The intention is to develop a robust ESP system including novel control, automation and power supply technology able to operate over a very wide range of production sensitivities with a high average run-life.

Abstract
In this study, the degradation of alizarin green (AG) by Ti/PbO2 electrode and Ti/IrO2 + Ta2O5 electrode was investigated; specifically, the degradation efficiency was compared. The optimal conditions for degradation, as determined from the results, were as follows: an initial concentration of the pollutant (AG) of 100 mg/L, an electrolyte (Na2SO4) concentration of 0.1 mol/L, a current density of 30 mA/cm2, and a pH of 5.86. Under these optimal conditions, the AG removal rate and chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal rate were greater than 81.4% and 51.6%, respectively, by Ti/PbO2 electrode and Ti/IrO2 + Ta2O5 electrode after 70 min of degradation. In comparison with the mud-cracked surface of the Ti/IrO2 + Ta2O5 electrode, the Ti/PbO2 electrode showed higher stability for its pyramid crystal structure. Furthermore, during degradation, accelerated spalling phenomena were observed by SEM on the Ti/IrO2 + Ta2O5 electrode surface owing to the mud-cracked surface structure. As a result, a TiO2 passive film was formed, which lead to an increase in cell pressure and a decrease in the electrocatalysis ability of the Ti/IrO2 + Ta2O5 electrode.

Abstract
This study investigated a combined approach of a persulfate-based advanced oxidation process followed by biological treatment of a textile industrial effluent. The effluent from the textile industry is primarily composed of various dyes in varying concentrations, resulting in high chemical oxygen demand (COD) and biological oxygen demand (BOD). The model pollutant Rhodamine-Blue was used in the optimization studies (RhB). During the persulfate oxidation process, persulfate activation is required to generate sulfate radicals (SO4−•). Raw laterite soil was used as an external catalyst for the treatment of RhB in batch studies, and it was able to reduce the dye concentration by about 20% in 60 minutes of operation, with initial RhB concentrations of 150 mg L-1 and Persulfate concentrations of 200 mg L-1. Furthermore, alkali-treated laterite soil was used as a catalyst, achieving 57 to 60% removal in 60 min at pH 3 and nearly complete removal after 72 hours of biological treatment. Furthermore, the optimized conditions were tested on real field waters to determine efficiency, and it was discovered that the persulfate oxidation process removed approximately 45% of COD, with further biological treatment for 72 hours increasing the removal efficiency to 64%. All other parameters of water quality were reduced by more than 60%.

Published: June 2023

Abstract
One of the interesting part in the study of uncertainty is to learn about their fusion models. In particular while studying about fuzzy set and rough set one may be interested to know about their joint models. Rough fuzzy sets and fuzzy rough sets are those types. After the introduction of soft sets many research developments started emerging both in the theoretical and application prospective manner. Though this theory sounds good it has its own limitation in describing expert opinion. To overcome this difficulty the novel idea of soft expert set was being developed. This paper attempts to inter-relate soft expert set with rough fuzzy set in theoretical aspect. An approach to decision-making situation based on the soft expert rough fuzzy set model is also given in a lucid manner.
Chemotherapy-driven increases in the IL6/STAT3/Mcl-1 axis reduce the chemosensitivity of osteosarcoma cells

AbstractOsteosarcoma (OS) remains one of the most uncontrollable and devastating malignant tumors and is very prone to chemotherapy resistance as the main reason for treatment failure. Previous study found that chemotherapy itself can stimulate Mcl-1 upregulation in OS cells, which in turn inhibits the chemosensitivity of OS cells, but the basic process by which this occurs is unknown. The present study found that chemotherapy upregulated the expression of Mcl-1, which led to a decrease in the chemosensitivity of tumors by promoting their proliferation, invasion, and metastasis. The IL6/STAT3 axis was the critical regulator of Mcl-1 expression in OS cells receiving chemotherapy. Mechanistic analysis suggested that enhanced the DNA damage repair machinery was the mechanism by which chemotherapy-driven increases in the IL6/STAT3/Mcl-1 axis led to chemoresistance. Therefore, chemotherapy-driven increases in the IL6/STAT3/Mcl-1 axis are the key in chemoresistance, suggesting the potential for a novel strategy to enhance chemosensitivity in OS.

AbstractBackground:There is a lack of studies comparing the risk of cardio-cerebrovascular disease between angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) of different half-lives.Aim:To compare the risks of myocardial infarction, heart failure, and cerebrovascular disease with the use of ARBs with different half-lives in a retrospective cohort of patients aged ≥ 40 years with hypertension.Method:We performed propensity score matching to establish a cohort of 148,229 patients exposed to valsartan, losartan, irbesartan, or telmisartan. We used an as-treated approach to evaluate exposure and the Cox regression logistic model to calculate the incidence rates and adjusted hazard ratios (aHRs, 95% confidence interval) for MI, heart failure, and cerebrovascular disease with valsartan, losartan, and irbesartan compared to telmisartan.Results:The matched cohort analysis showed that the risk of myocardial infarction was higher for valsartan use (1.39, 1.33–1.45) and losartan use (1.10, 1.05–1.15) but lower for irbesartan use (0.90, 0.86-0.94) than telmisartan use. Compared with telmisartan use, the risk for cerebrovascular disease was lower for valsartan use (0.85, 0.83–0.87) and losartan use (0.80, 0.78–0.82) but higher for irbesartan use (1.11, 1.09–1.13).Conclusion:We found differences in the risk of myocardial infarction and cerebrovascular disease with the use of ARBs with different half-lives. Valsartan and losartan with a short half-life, which showed a higher risk of myocardial infarction, had a lower risk of cerebrovascular disease. Conversely, irbesartan with a long half-life, which showed a lower risk of myocardial infarction, had a higher risk of cerebrovascular disease.
