Published: January 2022

Abstract
Insufficient user involvement, lack of user feedback, incomplete and changing user requirements are some of the critical reasons for the difficulty of IS usage, which could potentially reduce the number of customers. Under the previous authors’ research, the method for analysing the behaviour of IT system users was developed, which was intended to improve the usability of the system and thus could increase the efficiency of business processes. The developed method is based on the use of graph searching algo rithms, Markov chains and Machine Learning approach. This paper focuses on detailing of method output data in the context of definition of their importance based on expert evaluation and demonstration of visual presentation of different UX analysis situations. The paper briefly reminds the essence of the method, including both the input and output data sets, and, with the help of experts, evaluates the expected result in the context of their importance in UX analysis. It also introduces visualization prototype developed to obtain the output data, which allows verifying the input/output data transformation possibilities and expected data acquisition potential.
Text Tone Determination Using Fuzzy Logic

Published: January 2022

Abstract
The study proposes the text tone detection system based on sentiment dictionaries and fuzzy rules. Computer analysis of texts from different sources has been performed in emotional categories: anger, anticipation, disgust, fear, joy, sadness, surprise and trust. A synonym dictionary has been used to expand the vocabulary. To increase the accuracy and validity of sentiment analysis, the authors of the study have used coefficients that take into account different emotional loads of words of various parts of speech and the action of intensifying or softening adverbs. A quantitative value of the text tone has been obtained as a result of an aggregation of normalized data on all emotional categories by the fuzzy inference methods. It has been found that emotional words have a greater impact on the text tone value in the case of analysis of short messages. The proposed approach makes it possible to contribute to all emotional categories in the final text evaluation.
Evaluation of Fingerprint Selection Algorithms for Two-Stage Plagiarism Detection
Authors: Jēkabsons Gints 
Published: January 2022

Abstract
Generally, the process of plagiarism detection can be divided into two main stages: source retrieval and text alignment. The paper evaluates and compares effectiveness of five fingerprint selection algorithms used during the source retrieval stage: Every p-th, 0 mod p, Winnowing, Frequency-biased Winnowing (FBW) and Modified FBW (MFBW). The algorithms are evaluated on a dataset containing plagiarism cases in Bachelor and Master Theses written in English in the field of computer science. The best performance is reached by 0 mod p, Winnowing and MFBW. For these algorithms, reduction of fingerprint size from 100 % to about 20 % kept the effectiveness at approximately the same level. Moreover, MFBW sends overall fewer document pairs to the text alignment stage, thus also reducing the computational cost of the process.

Published: January 2022

Abstract
It is important to know how much the lungs are affected in the course of the disease in patients with COVID-19. Detecting infected tissues on CT lung images not only helps diagnose the disease but also helps measure the severity of the disease. In this paper, using the hybrid artificial intelligence-based segmentation method, which we call TA-Segnet, it has been revealed how the region with COVID-19 affects the lung on 2D CT images. A hybrid convolutional neural network-based segmentation method (TA-Segnet) has been developed for this process. We use “COVID-19 CT Lung and Infection Segmentation Dataset” and “COVID-19 CT Segmentation Dataset” to evaluate TA-SegNET. At first, the tissues with COVID-19 on each lung image are determined, then the measurements obtained are evaluated according to the parameters of Accuracy, Dice, Jaccard, Mean Square Error, Mutual Information and Cross-correlation. Accuracy, Dice, Jaccard, Mean Square Error, Mutual Information and Cross-correlation values for data set-1 are 98.63 %, 0.95, 0.919, 0.139, 0.51, and 0.904, respectively. For data set-2, these parameters are 98.57 %, 0.958, 0.992, 0.0088, 0.565 and 0.8995, respectively. Second, the ratio of COVID-19 regions relative to the lung region on CT images is determined. This ratio is compared with the values in the original data set. The results obtained show that such an artificial intelligence-based method during the pandemic period will help prioritize and automate the diagnosis of COVID-19 patients.
Online pharmacy: customer profiling

Published: January 2022

Abstract

Introduction: Nearly three out of four European citizens purchase goods online. The main advantages of using an online pharmacy are lower prices and convenience. In addition, patients appreciate a higher degree of privacy and access to a wider selection of health products. Study shows that the number of online users is on the rise in major countries like the USA, EU member states or India.

Methods: The study is based on data collected in April 2020 at the country level (Romania) from a sample of 789 adults over the age of 18, using CATI. A simple random sampling procedure was applied, with a confidence interval of 3.5% and a confidence level of 95%.

Results: About 17.7% of Romanians have purchased healthcare products through online pharmacies or drugstores, of those 60% are women, between 30 - 64 years old (84 %), have a monthly income of more than 2700 lei (90%), and a university degree (76%). The most common reasons for choosing an online pharmacy are the ability to compare prices, shop quickly, and have prompt access to items and information, together with a wider range of products.

Conclusions: Respondents’ motivation to use online pharmacies appears to be more related to the benefits of the online media, rather than to some unmet needs in brick-and-mortar pharmacies. Search capabilities, access to more information, price comparison, as well as a larger range of products and availability 24/7 are some reasons why patients utilise online pharmacies to purchase medicines.

Abstract
Insulin resistance is a heterogenous condition with high prevalence in medical practice. As diabesity reaches epidemic levels worldwide, the role of insulin resistance is getting great importance. Contribution of risk factors like sedentary lifestyle, diets high in saturated fats and refined carbohydrates leads to this state with significant consequences. Besides its role in diabetes, insulin resistance is also associated with other several endocrine diseases, having not only a role in their development, but also to their treatment approach, evolution and even prognosis. The present review summarizes the current literature on the clinical significance of insulin resistance, as well as the possible underlying mechanisms and treatment options in order to achieve a high quality of life of these categories of patients. Deepening the role of inflammatory cytokines involved in insulin resistance paves the way for future research findings in this continuously evolving field.

Abstract

Objective: To find the anxiolytic effects in a psychogenic stress model in mice, the present study has investigated the interaction between propranolol and dextromethorphan.

Methods: 50 Albino Swiss male mice were housed in groups of 10 per cage. The beta-adrenergic receptor blocker propranolol (20 mg/kg bw), the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor dextromethorphan (30 mg/kg bw), and their combination were administered 10 minutes after exposure to predator odor. The treatments included diazepam as positive control and normal saline as negative control. Anxiety-like behaviors were evaluated using the elevated plus-maze test (EPM) 7 days after stress induction.

Results: Regarding the length of stay (F=25.53; p<0.0001)/number of entries in the open arms (F=3.533; p=0.0416), time (F=6.127; p=0.0045)/number of entries in the closed arms (F=5.690; p=0.0141), time in center-point (F=3.577; p=0,0295), and total distance traveled (F= 4.711; p=0.0145), there was a significant difference among the treated groups. Propranolol and dextromethorphan treated groups expressed lower time in the closed arms vs Placebo (p=0.0089, respectively p=0.0111). In addition, the time spent in the open arms was higher in propranolol group vs placebo group (p=0.0215).

Conclusions: Considering obtained data, there was a decrease of symptoms in the sympathetic nervous system and the psychological stress disappeared in mice applying a treatment of 20 mg/kg bw propranolol. Our findings indicated that dextromethorphan partially mediated the anxiolytic-like activity. However, the combination of these two drugs did not express anxiolytic effects.

Abstract
Soy polysaccharides represent a multipurpose class of chemicals that include both therapeutical and technological properties. Since they have been first time introduced in the pharmaceutical field, Soy polysaccharides were used in two different pharmaceutical formulations; sublingual tablets and in colon drug delivery. For the sublingual tablets, Soy polysaccharides under the brand name of Emcosoy© - were used as a superdisintegrant in concentrations between 4-8% showing comparable results with the artificial superdisintegrants (sodium starch glycolate, sodium croscarmellose, and polyvinylpyrrolidone). The second technological field where Soy polysaccharides were used is represented by colon drug delivery where it was used in combination with ethylcellulose showing a prolonged lag time compared to the results found in the literature. The medicinal effect of these polysaccharides consists of treating diarrhea. As it will be presented in the article, these chemical compounds tend to decrease the aqueous stool time in patients with diarrhea and to conduct to a softer stool in healthy patients. In conclusion, these polysaccharides present multiple purposes possessing a medicinal effect and also the possibility of being used as a double-faceted pharmaceutical excipient.

Authors: Mitroi Adrian , Ionescu Ana Maria 
Published: January 2022

Abstract
In rheumatoid arthritis the extra-articular manifestations present a marker of disease severity and are accompanied by increased morbidity and mortality The aim of this paper is to study the relationship between extra-articular manifestations and osteoporosis in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. The study included 130 menopausal women diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis. Bone mineral density was measured at lumbar spine and femoral by means of dual X-ray osteodensitometry. The obtained variables were analysed by bivariate analysis and logistic regression. The mean age was 62.77±7.51 years old. The medium duration of rheumatoid arthritis was 7.91±7.85 years, the frequency of extra-articular manifestations was 25.38%. The frequency of osteoporosis was 44.62%. The frequency of osteoporosis is statistically significantly higher in patients with rheumatoid arthritis who have extra-articular manifestations. The presence of extra-articular manifestations in patients with rheumatoid arthritis should draw attention to the need to determine bone mineral density.

Published: January 2022

Abstract
It has been estimated that the human gut contains about 1,000 species of bacteria and 100 times more genes than are found in the human genome. Over 2 Kg - as weight. It is the human microbiom that form a true “forgotten organ” of our body.
Due to the abuse of antibiotics, the Clostridium difficile infection became one of the top nosocomial infections due to complications and financial pressure on the medical system.
We conducted a prospective study of the characteristics of risk factors and epidemiological aspects in patients with Clostridium difficile infection admitted to the Clinical Hospital for Infectious Diseases from Constanta for a period of 3 years. Demographics (age), risk factors (surgery, history of antibiotics or proton pump inhibitors, comorbidities) were noted. The classes of antibiotics used, other than the basic treatment of the condition were analyzed. Also the source of the infection including the ward were the patient was previously hospitalized.
47% (104) of the patients were in the 60-80 interval of age. Nearly half of the patients had a history of surgery. Only 52 patients out of a total of 221 had no history of antibiotic therapy. More than half had PPI therapy prior to the onset of CD infection. In terms of comorbidities, they are multiple, at different systems, the most common being cardiovascular, nutritional and renal diseases. The source of infection was found as nosocomial in 65% of patients. Regarding the origin of the hospital wards, the surgical departments were the main ones in which CD infections appeared: General Surgery (46), Orthopedics (33) and Urology (13).
Our study results confirm that reported risk factors are advanced age, antibiotics use, proton pump inhibitors administration, comorbidities and exposure to health care sistem.

Published: January 2022

Abstract
Introduction Transthyretin -Related Familial Amyloid Polyneuropathy (TTR-FAP) is a rare cause of polyneuropathy, mainly in Romania, but also in other geographic area of Europe, Japan and north America.
Polyneuropathies are common in neurology practice, but prevalence and incidence are not known, usually are underreported and misdiagnosis. Almost one third of polyneuropathies remain idiopathic, in spite of extensive work-out to identify etiology. Transthyretin-related familial amyloid polyneuropathy (TTR-FAP) is a multisystemic disease neurological manifestation caused by the accumulation of amyloidogenic transthyretin (TTR) protein in tissues. It is an autosomal dominant syndrome, and there are more than 100 forms of TTr associated with FAP. The disease is characterized by progressive peripheral and autonomic neuropathy, and visceral amyloid involvement like cardiac amyloidosis.
Case presentation We present the case of a male, aged 48, who experienced from 18 month paresthesias of distal inferior limb and fatigue, with an important weight loss. The patient was diagnosed with mixed polyneuropathy, and he was extensively investigated. Etiology was not established. He began to feel dizziness and faints several times, and these new features lead to our final diagnosis.
Conclusions Etiology of a polyneuropathy case could be very challenging for general neurologist due to a numerous causes. A large variety of signs and symptoms lead the clinician to a narrow diagnostic possibilities and still this might take a long time. Polyneuropathy and cardiac involvement make a mark for life threatening disease but potentially curable

Low-Cost Sensors for Air Quality Monitoring - the Current State of the Technology and a Use Overview
Authors: Buček Pavel , Maršolek Petr , Bílek Jiří 
Published: January 2022

Abstract
In recent years the monitoring of air quality using cheap sensors has become an interesting alternative to conventional analytical techniques. Apart from vast price differences conventional techniques need to be performed by the trained personnel of commercial or research laboratories. Sensors capable of measuring dust, ozone, nitrogen and sulphur oxides, or other air pollutants are relatively simple electronic devices, which are comparable in size to a mobile phone. They provide the general public with the possibility to monitor air quality which can contribute to various projects that differ in regional scale, commercial funding or community-base. In connection with the low price of sensors arises the question of the quality of measured data. This issue is addressed by a number of studies focused on comparing the sensor data with the data of reference measurements. Sensory measurement is influenced by the monitored analyte, type and design of the particular sensor, as well as by the measurement conditions. Currently sensor networks serve as an additional source of information to the network of air quality monitoring stations, where the density of the network provides concentration trends in the area that may exceed specific measured values of pollutant concentrations and low uncertainty of reference measurements. The constant development of all types of sensors is leading to improvements and the difference in data quality between sensors and conventional monitoring techniques may be reduced.
A Comparative Analysis of Text Difficulty in Slovak and Canadian Science Textbooks
Authors: Beníčková Zuzana , Vojíř Karel , Held Ľubomír 
Published: January 2022

Abstract
One of the main purposes of textbooks is the mediation of educational content to students. The factual accuracy of information, as well as the clarity of the text for students plays a crucial role in this aspect. The inadequate text difficulty can complicate students' learning. Comparing different approaches to the text in textbooks, considering the objectives of education, represents key knowledge for teaching materials innovation. This research was therefore focused on the comparison of the Slovak and Canadian science textbooks for lower secondary education. The methodology for assessing text difficulty according to Nestler, Prucha and Pluskal was used for this purpose. The samples of text from the textbooks for 6th and 8th grade of lower-secondary school were assessed. It was found that the text in Slovak textbooks is significantly more difficult. While from the syntactic difficulty point of view differences were rather partial, the significant differences were found in the semantic difficulty of the text. The Slovak textbooks are burdened with an excessive number of professional terms. Considering the results in measuring scientific literacy, this approach to the text in the Slovak textbooks is not effective. The results obtained are therefore an incentive to revise used educational materials.
