A Scoping Review of Psychological Distress Instruments in Women with Early-Stage Breast Cancer During Chemotherapy
Authors: Alanazi Amal , Kelly Debra , Weaver Michael , Lyon Debra E. 
Published: October 2022

Background: Psychological distress is associated with worsening
symptoms during the active treatment period and lower quality of life in
women with early-stage breast cancer. Many studies have indicated risk
for heightened psychological distress across the breast cancer
trajectory. Aim: The purpose of this review is to examine the
literature for instruments used to measure psychological distress among
women with breast cancer during chemotherapy. Methods: This
study used the Arksey and O’Malley framework of scoping reviews. Two
databases, PubMed & CINAHL, were searched for peer-reviewed original
articles that were published within the last ten years, included
participants with a diagnosis of breast cancer stages I to III, and
receiving chemotherapy, English text articles, and studies that report
psychological distress measures. Results: The initial
screening yielded 529 relevant studies. After applying the exclusion
criteria, a total of 17 studies concerning the assessment of
psychological distress during chemotherapy were retained for the
analysis of variables and measures of psychological distress. The
instruments used to measure for psychological distress varied with a
total of 22 measures. The most frequently utilized measure was the
Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale ( n=5), followed by the
Impact of Event Scale ( n=2), the Distress Thermometer (
n=2), and the Perceived Stress Scale ( n=2).
Conclusion: This review identified the gaps related to
inconsistencies in the operationalization and instruments used to
measure psychological distress among breast cancer survivors during
chemotherapy. Standardization of measures assessing psychological
distress, along with conceptual clarity, is essential for measuring
distress in research and clinical practice.
Ongoing clinical observation of significance #2.7 - Rapid Corticosteroid-induced reduction of blood glucose level in a patient with a hereditary iron transport disorder H63D syndrome

Published: October 2022

Update 2.7
We report the case of a patient who suffers from hypotransferrinemia due
to a genetic defect, subsequently suffers organ damage due to
non-transferrin bound iron (NTBI) and develops a paradoxical reaction of
glucose metabolism as a result of treatment with corticosteroids. To our
knowledge, this is the first description of such an effect in the
medical literature. The mechanism and further course of this phenomenon
are currently still in the dark. Due to its peculiarity, we therefore
publish only the clinical key data for the time being. We reported
earlier about the same patient’s change in his narcolepsy symptoms.

Association Between Serum Matrix Metalloproteinase-2 Levels and Mean Doppler Pulsatility Index of Uterine Arteries in Patients with Preeclampsia
Authors: Nikolov A. , Popovski N. , Hristova I. 
Published: October 2022

Abstract

Background: Мatrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) is an enzye from the gelatinases family involved mainly in collagen degradation. It is also known as a key regulator of normal vascular remodelling during a healthy pregnancy. Failure of regulation of MMP-2 has been associated with abnormal vasodilation, placentation, uterine expansion and development of preeclampsia (PE). Aims: (1) determine serum MMP-2 levels in women with PE and healthy pregnancy, (2) evaluate mean uterine arteries Doppler pulsatility index (UtA PI) and (3) investigate the a possible association between these parameters.

Materials and methods: This was a case-control study. Fifty-five women with PE (mean age 24.9 ± 6 years) and a control group of 35 women with normal pregnancies (mean age 24.7 ± 5.4 years) were examined. An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to determine serum levels of MMP-2. Mean UtA PI were evaluated by Doppler velocimetry.

Results: Serum ММР-2 levels in preeclampsia were significantly higher than in women with normal pregnancy 11.7 (9.1÷15.5) vs. 7.7 ng/ml (6.5÷13.4) (p = 0.016). Mean UtA PI was significantly higher in preeclampsia than in healthy pregnant women: 1.12 (0.82÷1.5) vs. 0.75 (0.69÷0.85); (p = 0.024). ММР-2 correlated with UtA PI (r = 0.214; p = 0.043). Cutoff value at 14 ng/ml for MMP-2 was found to discriminate between PE and healthy pregnancy.

Conclusion: Our data showed an association between serum MMP-2 and Mean UtA PI. We suggest that MMP-2 could have a potential imply on maternal uterine arteries’ structure, favoring their constriction, increased resistance and abnormal uterine vascular remodeling. Further studies are warranted to clarify whether determination of MMP-2 cutoff value might contribute in the diagnosic work-out strategy for PE.

Authors: Nikolova A. , Yordanov Y. P. 
Published: October 2022

Abstract
The femoro-acetabular impingement (FAI) syndrome is a motion-related disorder of the hip joint with premature contact between the acetabulum and the proximal femur. It is a relatively new clinical entity and no strict treatment protocols and guidelines have been established yet. Furthermore, patients are often misdiagnosed and not properly treated. We report a clinical case of a young adult female patient presenting with a bilateral FAI-CAM type deformity during the last 2 years. An individual progressive global elastic resistant training program was established which involved stimulation to all affected muscle groups using Pilates concept. Hip-specific and functional lower limb strengthening targeted the deep hip external rotators, abductors and flexors in the transverse, frontal, and sagittal planes. Improving the dynamic stability and Core stability was the main aim of the challenging physiotherapy treatment in this case. A good functional result was registered at 6 months follow up. All therapeutic activities were performed in a pain free range of motion which was of paramount importance for achieving excellent patient compliance and successful outcome respectively. The applied treatment strategy demonstrated to be reliable and could be a helpful tool in the armamentarium of contemporary physiotherapy when dealing with the FAI group of patients.

Published: October 2022

Abstract

Background: Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is a major health burden in peterm neonates with mortality rates between 21% and 50%. Prophylaxis is of primary importance as early diagnosis is hindered by the lack of specific signs and laboratory markers. Although probiotics have been routinely used for NEC prophylaxis in neonatal intensive care units around the world, clinical trials provide contradictory data, which fuels an ongoing debate about their efficacy and safety.

Aims: To perform a review and bibliometric analysis on available clinical trials and case reports data on the safety and efficacy of probiotics in preterm neonates and identify relevant publication trends and patterns.

Methods: A bibliometric search for publications on the topic was performed in the Web of Science Core Collection database and the resulting records analyzed in bibliometrix package in R.

Results: Trends in publication activity, historical direct citation network relationships and keyword co-ocurrences were discussed in the context of the most recent therapeutic recommendations.

Conclusion: We took a round view of the potential drawbacks to probiotic use in preterm infants and their possible solutions.

Experiences and Analyses of Reconstruction and Commissioning of Medium Voltage Substation
Authors: Demirović Azelma , Kurtić Amir 
Published: October 2022

Abstract
The paper will present experiences in the reconstruction of the transformer station, which supplies the industrial factory. The previous version of the medium voltage (MV) substation with oil-filled transformers, and the new MV substation with dry and more energy efficient transformers, will be presented. An analysis of the operation and maintenance methods of oil transformers will be given. As oil transformers have many disadvantages, the reason, choice and cost-effectiveness of replacement with new dry transformers will be presented. Tests and measurements of insulation resistance of the winding and transformer protection during commissioning will also be presented. PT100 probes, which are connected to the thermostat, are installed in each low voltage winding of the dry transformer. Testing of this thermal protection of the transformer will be presented as well. Since transformers supply industrial consumers, mostly nonlinear ones, it is important to analyse the losses and life span of transformers. Nonlinear consumers lead to early aging of winding insulation, premature failures and reduction of transformer life. The newly designed and installed MV substation with Ring-main unit is ABB type SafePlus, and its installation and operating instructions will also be presented. The MV is equipped with a protection terminal, so settings and measurements of this terminal in transformer cells will be done. After the commissioning of the transformer station, the most important are diagnostics and periodic tests. Methods of periodic testing of MV substations will be presented in this paper.

Published: October 2022

As a type of mass tourism that continues to experience an increasing trend of market interest, marine tourism is a very prospective sector to be developed. Especially in its role to improve the welfare of the community in tourism destinations. This can be a solution for many areas that have marine tourism potential but the community is still not developed, such as the Spermonde Islands in Indonesia. By using quantitative descriptive research methods, measurable data in the form of public opinion on questions asked based on indicators collected, and the extent to which the Spermonde Islands community is involved in the development of marine tourism can be mapped. The results state that in general the people of the Spermonde Islands can be said to have participated in tourism activities even though they are still at a lower level. So, in the future, several strategies are needed to increase community participation.

Clustering of handwritten digits by Kohonen neural network
Authors: Latypova Dina Sergeevna , Tumakov Dmitrii Nikolaevich 
Published: October 2022

Clustering of handwritten digits is carried out for sixty thousand
images contained in the training sample of the MNIST database. For
clustering, the Kohonen neural network is used. For each handwritten
digit, the optimal number of clusters (no more than 50) is determined.
When determining the distance between objects (images of handwritten
digits), the Euclidean norm is used. Checking the correctness
of building clusters is carried out using data from the test sample
of the MNIST database. The test sample contains ten thousand images. It
is concluded that the images from the test sample belong to the "correct
digit" cluster with a probability of more than 90%. For
each digit, an F-measure is calculated to evaluate the clusters. The
best F-measures are obtained for digits 0 and 1 (F-mean is 0.974). The
worst values are obtained for the number 9 (F-mean is 0.903). A cluster
analysis is also carried out, which allows drawing conclusions about
possible errors in recognition by the Kohonen neural network.
Intersections of clusters for images of handwritten digits are
constructed. Examples of intersections of clusters are given, as well as
examples of images that are incorrectly recognized by the neural
network.
Archaic epos of mountain peoples of the Caucasus «The Narts»: constants duration of epic acts
Authors: Джапуа З.Д. 
Published: October 2022

В первой (вводной) части статьи дана общая характеристика нартского эпоса горских народов Кавказа: о значимости монументального памятника в духовной культуре народов, обладающих данной эпической традицией; о специфике (сходстве и различий) национальных версий эпоса; о персонажах и посвященных им сказаниях. Вторая (основная) часть статьи посвящена выявлению констант длительности эпических действий в кавказской Нартиаде. В поэтической структуре героико-исторической устной традиции весьма значимы описания времени и пространства, так называемые «хроноакты» (В. М. Гацак). Замечательно, что в нартском эпосе народов Кавказа сходно описываются семантически разные эпические действия. Выделяется ряд мотивов, константно описываемых в разных национальных версиях эпоса: пребывание богатыря в пути, «сокращение» эпического пути, богатырская схватка, нартский пир, эпический сон, вмерзание адауы-великана в водоем. По этим мотивам сопоставляются описания из абхазской, абазинской, адыгской и осетинской версий нартского эпоса, также из текстов волшебных сказок и героико-исторических песен и сказаний. Примеры из разных версий нартского эпоса показывает лексико-семантическую близость описаний длительности эпических действий, также они свидетельствуют о неразрывности времени и пространства (хронотопе) в эпическом повествовании. По своей структуре константы длительности действий нартского эпоса характеризуются сочетанием разных временных измерений, разных топосов длительности – от многих лет до одной минуты.
The general characterization of the Caucasians Narts is given in the first part of the article including the data about significance of monument in spiritual culture of Caucasians having these epic tradition and specifics (similarities and differences) of the epos national versions. Also the first part of the article gives information about characters and legends devoted to them. The second part is dedicated to the constants identification detecting epic acts in the Caucasians Narts. The description of time and space so called «chronoact» (V. M. Gatsak) is relevant in the poetic structure of a heroic historical oral tradition. It is notable that semantically different epic acts are described similarly in the Caucasians Narts epos. A number of motifs described in the different national versions of epos such as being of a bogatyr on the road, «cutting» of an epic road, bogatyr fight, The Narts feast, epic dream, freezing of adaua-giant in the water. Based upon these motifs the descriptions of Abkhazian, Abazin, Adygei and Osetin versions of the Narts, fairytales and heroic historical songs and legends texts were also compared. Examples from various versions of the Narts show lexical semantic similarity of the epic acts` duration description. They also highlight the continuity of time and space (in chronotop) in epic narration. By its structure constants of the Narts epic`s acts duration are characterized by composition of different temporal dimensions and duration topos (from many years to 1 minute).

Published: October 2022

<p>Penelitian ini merupakan salah satu langkah awal pengembangan pangan di Indonesia. Hal tersebut berkaitan dengan gandum yang dibudidayakan di Indonesia, yaitu gandum varietas DWR-162. Tujuan utama penelitian ini adalah menentukan pengaruh tepung gandum utuh varietas DWR-162 terhadap kandungan pati resisten (penentuan secara enzimatis) dan kadar gizi, yang biskuit meliputi kadar air (AOAC), abu (AOAC), lemak total (AOAC), karbohidrat total (Anthrone), protein terlarut (Biuret), dan serat kasar (AOAC). Parameter gizi tersebut dibandingkan dengan Standar Nasional Indonesia (SNI) 01-2973-1992 tentang mutu dan cara uji biskuit. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa biskuit dengan 10-50% tepung gandum utuh memiliki kadar air, abu dan lemak total berturut-turut adalah 0,85-0,92%, 1,35-1,43%, dan 33,44-41,70%. Nilai tersebut memenuhi syarat mutu SNI. Selain itu, kadar protein terlarut biskuit adalah 30,41-45,62%. Namun, karbohidrat total biskuit lebih rendah dari SNI, yaitu 37,58-49,32% dan kadar serat kasarnya lebih tinggi dari SNI yaitu 3,91-5,73%. Pati resisten biskuit meningkat hingga kadar substitusi gandum utuh 50% dari 17,8% menjadi 30,19%. Tingginya pati resisten biskuit gandum lokal ini sesuai dengan nilai indeks glikemik biskuit yang tergolong rendah, yaitu &lt; 55. Dengan demikian, gandum varietas DWR-162 berpotensi menjadi alternative bahan pangan fungsional.</p><p class="AbstractTitle"><em>This study was one of the initial steps in the development of Indonesian food based onlocal wheat, namely wheat DWR-162.
