Published: March 2022

BackgroundThe Revised Two Factor Study Process Questionnaire (R-SPQ-2F) is used to examine students' study approaches in higher education. The questionnaire is designed to measure two factors: deep and surface approaches. In order to measure these approaches for students in physical education and sport, a new measurement instrument should take into consideration the practical context of this field of education that makes it specific to other fields.ObjectiveThe present study aims (a) to develop and empirical test of a new instrument for measuring the study process in physical education and sports students, and (b) to test psychometric properties of the tool.MethodsTwo exploratory and confirmatory samples of physical education students enrolled in a bachelor's degree program in physical education at the High Institute of Physical Education and Sports of Kef-Tunisia, aged 19–26 years, were recruited online among female students (n = 414) and male students (n = 393). The participants filled in Google Form survey including Physical Education-Study Process Questionnaire (PE-SPQ) and the Arabic version of the Revised Study Process Questionnaire-2 Factors (R-SPQ-2F).ResultsExploratory factor analysis showed a suitable four factors solution, which is approved by confirmatory factor analysis indices [χ2 = 466.47, TLI = 0.94, CFI = 0.95; RMSEA = 0.56 IC 90% (0.050–0.062)]. Internal consistency of the PE-SPQ simultaneously checked by McDonald's ω, Cronbach's α and Gutmann's λ6 showed good reliability of the PE-SPQ. Convergent validity examined by Average variance extracted (AVE) was good. The comparison between the AVE root mean square and Pearson correlation coefficients of each factor with his indicators reveals the discriminant validity of the PE-SPQ. Furthermore, Pearson's correlation between the PE-SPQ factors and the R-SPQ-2F establishes the concurrent validity of the new scale.ConclusionThe PE-SPQ scale is valid and reliable and can be used to assess study process factors in physical education students.

Published: March 2022

The use of speech source localization (SSL) and its applications offer great possibilities for the design of speaker local positioning systems with wireless acoustic sensor networks (WASNs). Recent works have shown that data-driven front-ends can outperform traditional algorithms for SSL when trained to work in specific domains, depending on factors like reverberation and noise levels. However, such localization models consider localization directly from raw sensor observations, without consideration for transmission losses in WASNs. In contrast, when sensors reside in separate real-life devices, we need to quantize, encode and transmit sensor data, decreasing the performance of localization, especially when the transmission bitrate is low. In this work, we investigate the effect of low bitrate transmission on a Direction of Arrival (DoA) estimator. We analyze a deep neural network (DNN) based framework performance as a function of the audio encoding bitrate for compressed signals by employing recent communication codecs including PyAWNeS, Opus, EVS, and Lyra. Experimental results show that training the DNN on input encoded with the PyAWNeS codec at 16.4 kB/s can improve the accuracy significantly, and up to 50% of accuracy degradation at a low bitrate for almost all codecs can be recovered. Our results further show that for the best accuracy of the trained model when one of the two channels can be encoded with a bitrate higher than 32 kB/s, it is optimal to have the raw data for the second channel. However, for a lower bitrate, it is preferable to similarly encode the two channels. More importantly, for practical applications, a more generalized model trained with a randomly selected codec for each channel, shows a large accuracy gain when at least one of the two channels is encoded with PyAWNeS.
The Prognostic Significance and Gene Expression Characteristics of Gastric Signet-Ring Cell Carcinoma: A Study Based on the SEER and TCGA Databases

Published: March 2022

PurposeThis study is based on the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) program to explore the prognostic differences between signet-ring cell carcinoma (SRC) and intestinal-type gastric carcinoma (ITGC). This study is also based on gene sequencing data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) to identify unique genetic contributions to the prognostic differences between the two subtypes of gastric cancer.Patients and MethodsThe clinical data were based on the SEER database from 2004 to 2015. Kaplan–Meier (KM) curves were used to compare 5-year overall survival (OS), and Cox regression was used for univariate and multivariate analyses. Gene expression profiles were obtained from TCGA database, and differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were screened. Functional enrichment analysis, protein interaction and survival analysis will be further carried out. Genes of interest were verified by the Human Protein Atlas, immunohistochemistry, and encyclopedia of Cancer Cell Lines (CCLE). The relationship between genes of interest and immune cell infiltration was also analyzed by Tumor Immune Estimation Resource (TIMER).ResultsCompared with ITGC patients, SRC patients were more likely to be female, tended to be younger, and have a greater tumor distribution in the middle and lower stomach (p &lt; 0.01). SRCs showed a significantly better prognosis than ITGCs (p &lt; 0.01) in early gastric cancer (EGC), while the prognosis of SRCs was significantly worse than ITGCs (p &lt; 0.05) in advanced gastric cancer (AGC). A total of 256 DEGs were screened in SRCs compared to ITGCs, and the enrichment analysis and protein interactions revealed that differential genes were mainly related to extracellular matrix organization. Thrombospondin1 (THBS1) and serpin peptidase inhibitor, clade E, member 1 (SERPINE1) are significantly differentially expressed between SRC and ITGC, which has been preliminarily verified by immunohistochemistry and open-source databases. THBS1 and SERPINE1 are also associated with multiple immune cell infiltrates in gastric cancer.ConclusionsThere were significant differences in the clinicopathological features and prognosis between SRC and ITGC. These results suggest that SRC and ITGC may be two distinct types of tumors with different pathogeneses. We found many codifferentially expressed genes and important pathways between SRC and ITGC. THBS1 and SERPINE1 were significantly differentially expressed in the two types of gastric cancer, and may have potentially important functions.

Since the discovery of pulmonary veins (PVs) as foci of atrial fibrillation (AF), the commonest cardiac arrhythmia, investigation revolves around PVs catheter ablation (CA) results. Notwithstanding, CA process itself is rather neglected. We aim to decompose crucial CA steps: coronary sinus (CS) catheterization and the impact of left and right PVs isolation (LPVI, RPVI), separately. We recruited 40 paroxysmal AF patients undergoing first-time CA and obtained five-minute lead II and bipolar CS recordings during sinus rhythm (SR) before CA (B), after LPVI (L) and after RPVI (R). Among others, duration, amplitude and atrial-rate variability (ARV) were calculated for P-waves and CS local activation waves (LAWs). LAWs features were compared among CS channels for reliability analysis. P-waves and LAWs features were compared after each ablation step (B, L, R). CS channels: amplitude and area were different between distal/medial (p≤0.0014) and distal/mid-proximal channels (p≤0.0025). Medial and distal showed the most and least coherent values, respectively. Correlation was higher in proximal (≥93%) than distal (≤91%) areas. P-waves: duration was significantly shortened after LPVI (after L: p=0.0012, −13.30%). LAWs: insignificant variations. ARV modification was more prominent in LAWs (L: >+73.12%, p≤0.0480, R: <−33.94%, p≤0.0642). Medial/mid-proximal channels are recommended during SR. CS LAWs are not significantly affected by CA but they describe more precisely CA-induced ARV modifications. LPVI provokes the highest impact in paroxysmal AF CA, significantly modifying P-wave duration.

Синдром гиперстимуляции яичников (СГЯ) представляет собой преимущественно ятрогенное осложнение, возникающее в результате применения гормональных препаратов с целью индукции фолликулогенеза. Совокупная частота всех форм СГЯ достигает 30–33% от общего числа программ экстракорпорального оплодотворения, в то время как тяжелая и критическая формы синдрома потенциально летальны, что обусловливает необходимость своевременного выявления факторов риска развития этого осложнения. В статье представлены результаты анализа современной научной литературы, освещающие прогностическую ценность основных маркеров риска развития СГЯ.
Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is a mainly iatrogenic complication of controlled ovarian stimulation in assisted reproductive technologies (ART). Commonly, prevalence of OHSS constitutes up to 30–33% of all in-vitro fertilization programs, while at the same time severe and critical forms of this syndrome are potentially lethal, which explains the necessity of studies aimed at establishing significant risk factors. This article presents the results of contemporary scientific literary review focused on evaluating prognostic value of OHSS clinical and laboratory prognostic markers.

Authors: Дьяконов А.Л. 
Published: March 2022

Работа посвящена изучению особенностей клиники, диагностики и динамики деперсонализационных расстройств в структуре заболеваний шизофренического спектра. Обследовано 32 пациента с эпизодическим типом течения параноидной шизофрении и шизотипическим расстройством. Установлено, что при указанных заболеваниях деперсонализация представлена всеми тремя вариантами: аутопсихической, соматопсихической и аллопсихической. По мере клинического улучшения состояния явления деперсонализации могли исчезать или усложняться при последующих рецидивах заболевания. Во время приступов шизофрении деперсонализация в начале наблюдения не была созвучна с бредом, существовала автономно (бредовая деперсонализация изначально из исследования исключалась), но при катамнестическом наблюдении деперсонализация становилась дефектной или бредовой, срастаясь с бредом. По мере нарастания негативной симптоматики деперсонализация постепенно тускнела, стиралась.
The work is devoted to the study of clinical features, diagnostics and dynamics of depersonalization disorders in the structure of schizophrenic spectrum diseases. There were examined 32 patients with episodic type of paranoid schizophrenia and schizotypic disorder. It was found that in these diseases, depersonalization is represented by all three options: autopsychic, somatopsychic and allopsychic. With clinical improvement, the phenomena of depersonalization could disappear or become more complicated with subsequent relapses of the disease. During schizophrenia attacks, depersonalization in the early observation was not consonant with delusion, it existed autonomously (delusional depersonalization was initially excluded from research). However, in follow up supervision, depersonalization was found defective or delusional, fused with delusion. With the growth of the negative symptoms, depersonalization gradually faded, erased.

Это исследование было направлено на то, чтобы систематизировать вопросник по познанию горя (GCQ) для иорданского контекста путем проверки его психометрических свойств. Выборка состояла из 645 участников в возрасте от 18 лет и старше, которые испытали потери в течение последних 6 месяцев после исследования. Были использованы исследовательский факторный анализ (EFA) и подтверждающий факторный анализ (CFA). Результаты EFA показали пять факторов с объяснением 62,245% дисперсии. Этими факторами были негативные представления о себе, мире и будущем и лелеющие и угрожающие интерпретации после потери. Был проведен CFA для проверки правильности пяти факторов. Результаты показали, что модифицированная модель согласуется с данными. Альфа-коэффициент Кронбаха для общего GCQ составлял 0,97, а для подшкал – от 0,89 до 0,94. На основании этих результатов можно было определить, что этот инструмент обладает достаточными психометрическими свойствами, чтобы его можно было использовать и применять в иорданском контексте вкачестве надежного и последовательного инструмента для оценки когнитивных мыслей после потери.This study aimed to codify the Grief Cognition Questionnaire (GCQ) for the Jordanian context by testing its psychometric properties. The sample consisted of 645 participants aged 18 years or older who had experienced a loss within the past 6 months of the time of the study. An exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and a confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) were used. The results of the EFA showed five factors, with 62.245% of the variance explained. These factors were negative cognitions about the self, world, and future and cherishing and threatening interpretations after loss. A CFA was performed to test the validity of the five factors. The results showed that the modified model was consistent with the data. The Cronbach’s alpha coefficient for the total GCQ was .97 and was between .89 and .94 for the subscales. Based on these results, it was possible to determine that this tool had sufficient psychometric properties to be applied and adopted in the Jordanian context as a valid, reliable and consistent tool for evaluating postloss cognitive thoughts.
