Members of the MEX3 (muscle excess 3) family, uniquely characterised as mRNA binding proteins, play emerging roles in the post-transcriptional regulation of programmed biological processes, including tumour cell death and immune mechanisms, and have been shown to be involved in a variety of diseases. However, the role of MEX3 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has not been fully elucidated. In this study, we found no significant changes in the sequence and copy number of the MEX3 gene through analysis using the COSMIC database, revealing its stability during malignancy development. Its expression in NSCLC was examined using the Oncomine™ database, and the prognosis of each member gene was analysed by Kaplan–Meier. The results showed that overexpression of MEX3A, MEX3B, MEX3C and MEX3D was associated with significantly worse OS in patients with LUAD, while overexpression of MEX3D was also associated with significantly worse OS in patients with LUSC. Afterwards, we applied the Tumour Immunology Estimation Resource (TIMER) tool to assess the correlation between different MEX3 and infiltrative immune cell infiltration. Ultimately, we found that most MEX3 members were highly expressed in NSCLC, with high expression suggesting poor prognosis and correlating with immune cell infiltration. The complexity and heterogeneity of NSCLC was understood through MEX3, setting the framework for the prognostic impact of MEX3 in NSCLC patients and the development of new targeted therapeutic strategies in the future.

Background: Cancer is predominantly a disease of older adults. To date there has been little research on the experiences of older adults or their views on the diagnostic pathway. Aim: To gain an improved understanding of the views and experiences of older adults on all aspects of cancer investigation. Design and setting: This was a qualitative study using semi-structured interviews with patients aged ≥70 years. Patients were recruited from primary care in West Yorkshire, UK. Method: Data were analysed using a thematic framework analysis. Results: The themes identified in participants' accounts included the patients' process of decision making, the value of having a diagnosis, the patients' experience of cancer investigations, and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the diagnostic pathway. Older adults in this study indicated a clear preference for having clarity on the cause of symptoms and the diagnosis, even in the face of unpleasant investigations. Patients suggested they wanted to be involved in the decision process. Conclusion: Older adults who present to primary care with symptoms suggestive of cancer may accept diagnostic testing solely for the benefit of knowing the diagnosis. There was a clear patient preference that referrals and investigations for cancer symptoms should not be deferred or delayed based on age or subjective assessments of frailty. Shared decision making and being involved in the decision-making process are important to patients, regardless of age. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

To investigate the satisfaction of the participants in the bioequivalence trial in the Phase I Clinical Trial Ward of the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University, and the measures and suggestions were discussed to improve the hardware and software of the ward. Methods A self- designed questionnaire was applied to survey 324 participants who had participated in the bioequivalence trial in the Phase I Clinical Trial Ward of the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University, to understand the satisfaction of ward's hardware and software. A total of 316 valid questionnaires were collected in this survey, and the questionnaire recovery rate was 97.5%. The chi-square test was used to analyze the differences in satisfaction of participants with different gender, age, and days staying in the ward. Results There was no significant difference in satisfaction with privacy protection, medical treatment and staff service attitude among subjects of different gender, age and time in ward, satisfaction with ward environment, satisfaction with ward catering, and whether subjects of different gender and age continued to participate in the experiment (P>0.05). There were statistically significant differences in the satisfaction of subjects of different sexes with ward environment, the satisfaction of subjects of different sexes with catering situation, and whether the subjects continued to participate in the experiment at different hospitalization time (P < 0.05). Conclusion Phase I Ward should strengthen hardware construction and increase diet diversity to improve patient satisfaction; and in the bioequivalence trial, the participants should be treated in different ways to increase their compliance thus improve the quality of clinical trials.

Objective To understand and evaluate the public health performance of tertiary public hospitals in Beijing, in order to provide clues for further clarifying the scope and compensation standards of public health work in medical institutions. Methods According to the "List of Public Health Responsibilities of Secondary and Higher Medical Institutions in Beijing (2020 Edition)", the performance of public health in 54 tertiary public hospitals in Beijing in 2021 was evaluated. Results Among the 54 tertiary public hospitals, the overall management of public health organizations was relatively good. The 25 projects including infectious disease monitoring and reporting, standardized management of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), standardized diagnosis and treatment of sexually transmitted diseases, standardized management of tuberculosis, response to public health emergencies and health education were well carried out. The 17 projects including chronic disease prevention and control, psychiatric disease diagnosis and treatment services, child death prevention and control, foodborne diseases monitoring and occupational disease hazard prevention were carried out generally. The eight projects including monitoring and reporting of key infectious diseases, laboratory testing of infectious diseases, occupational disease management services, and maternal and child health services were not fully carried out. Conclusion The overall allocation of departments and personnel in the disease prevention and control department of tertiary public hospitals in Beijing is good, but there are differences in job responsibilities and performance. It is necessary to further clarify the scope and compensation standards of disease prevention and control work in medical institutions, and explore scientific and reasonable evaluation mechanisms.

Card frauds are one of the most common types of banking frauds out of which card skimming contributes the major share. Investigation and prosecution of card skimming cases are mainly dependent on digital evidence requiring trained and skilled law enforcement officers. Further, a single incident of card skimming leads to collection of information from hundreds of cards and hence the identification of all the victims is the real challenge for an investigating officer. This paper discusses different issues pertaining to card skimming providing a general overview of the modus operandi, investigation process and constraints faced by law enforcement agencies.

Social workers play a critical role in modern public defender offices, whether performing mitigation work for pretrial negotiations and sentencing hearings or helping clients to secure access to basic human needs. Although social workers have held in-house positions in public defender offices since at least the 1970s, their service is largely limited to mitigation practice and traditional social work. This article raises an opportunity for social workers to broaden their capacity within public defense by pursuing investigator positions. A case is made for interested social workers to draw upon their education, training, and experience to showcase the alignment between their talents and the requisite skills and performance required of investigative work. Evidence is offered to support the notion that social workers bring skills and a social justice orientation to investigative work that can provide for fresh insight and innovation in investigation and defense strategy. The value brought to investigation by social workers throughout a legal defense is specified, as are considerations for applying and interviewing for investigator positions as social workers.

This paper focuses on the issue of integrating innovative methods into the teaching of literature in lower-secondary schools. It aims to highlight the factors that influence these methods' use and thus fill a gap in the existing research in the field. The research inquiry is based on a qualitative approach; the group of respondents consists of male and female teachers working in lower-secondary schools at the time of the research. The structured interview method was chosen for data collection, and the data obtained was evaluated using grounded theory. We present the results obtained from 24 interviews. Due to the research's qualitative nature, it is impossible to generalise from the findings. The so-called time and teacher factors and the classroom factors are associated with not using these methods, and developing competencies and applying them to life factors are associated with using them. The paper also comments on the influence of school support, the influence of inspiration from university teachers, and the positive experiences of the respondents. The influence of the age of the teachers was found to be insignificant. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article draws attention to and conducts an analysis of obtaining biological samples of a person under the condition of their voluntary provision. In the course of the study, it was revealed that during the investigation of criminal offenses there may be a need to obtain biological samples of a person with different characteristics, which can be conditionally divided into three groups: samples-reflections of a person, which include samples-prints: fingers, teeth, feet, lips, any parts of the surface of the human body; samples of functional manifestations of the person, which include samples of: handwriting, voice, speech; samples of personal characteristics, which include samples of smell, blood, saliva, any bodily secretions, nails, hair, etc. It was found that according to the type of specific biological samples, the need for which arises for the examination, the appropriate technology for their selection is also used. The procedure for a person's voluntary provision of biological samples for examination has been disclosed, which consists in: 1) obtaining a person's biological samples; 2) drawing up a procedural document on conducting an examination. Attention is drawn to the fact that obtaining biological samples of a person is carried out precisely according to the rules of personal examination, and not the procedure of personal examination determined by the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine, and the range of persons from whom biological samples can be taken for examination is not limited to suspects, witnesses and victims. That is, if necessary, according to the rules of Art. 241 of the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine, it is possible to take samples from any person if necessary. As a conclusion, in order to avoid the actions of authorized persons by analogy, which may require additional measures to prove the propriety and admissibility of the collected evidence on the part of the prosecution, we consider it necessary to make appropriate changes and additions to the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine, which would ensure the implementation of judicial practice in activities of authorized persons on proof and served as a guarantee for the formation of correct investigative practice.

The email system is a globally distributed communication infrastructure service that involves multiple actors playing different roles to ensure end-to-end mail delivery. It is an indispensable method of communicating that is changing how people share data and information. As a result, it facilitates effective and efficient communication, especially in business, as well as convenience, accessibility, and replication. Today, email can send more than just text files; it can also send audio, video, photos, and other files with extensions. With email becoming ubiquitous in all aspects of our lives, enhancing its security, operating procedures, and forensic investigation has become essential. The purpose of this paper is to review some real email forensic incidents and the tools and techniques that have been proposed. A discussion of the major threats to email as well as techniques to mitigate them will also be provided. A comparison study was made of several techniques and analysis tools used in email forensics. In addition, this paper compares the available software tools for email forensics based on factors such as language interface, user interface, programming language, creation of image files, calculation of hash value, cost, and advantages.

Danjia folk songs are a type of traditional music from the Wuzhou region in Guangxi, China. These songs typically feature female singers, and both the melodies and lyrics are distinctive. The objectives of this study were to investigate the contemporary status of Danjia folk songs in Wuzhou, Guangxi, China, and find out the way to preserv and integrate Danjia folk songs into the music classroom in Wuzhou, Guangxi, China. This study uses the qualitative research method to interview key informants in the field. According to the result of this study, the contemporary status of Danjia Folk Songs in Wuzhou, Guangxi, is defined by survival status, a lack of attention, an unstable inheritance team, a lack of new strength, and a lack of human resources. To be better, the Wuzhou Danjia folk songs must be supported by the government and people from all walks of life, and the "fusion" model of education requires teachers to find materials that bring music teaching closer to life and integrate it into their lives. To promote the heritage and development of the Danjia folk songs, teachers should be creative and motivate students to learn independently. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background: Helminthiases are highly endemic in Southeast Asia, including the Lao People's Democratic Republic (Lao PDR). This study aimed to assess the current intestinal helminth infections and the associated risk factors among adults across the Lao PDR. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted in 165 villages across 17 provinces and the Vientiane Capital, Lao PDR. A multi-stage sampling method was employed to select the adult study participants (≥ 18 years). Data collection included (1) interview of the study participants, (2) physical measurements, and (3) a five gram of stool sample from each study participant was collected and preserved in 10% formalin solution for intestinal helminth detection using formalin-ether concentration technique (FECT). Descriptive analysis was used to describe the socio-demographic characteristics of study participants and the prevalence of intestinal helminth infections. Logistic regressions were applied to test the association between intestinal helminth infection and individual risk factors. A P-value below 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: A total of 2800 study participants were enrolled. Their average age was 46.0 years; 57.8% were female. Overall, 30.9%, 8.6% and 1.5% of study participants were infected with one, two, or three different intestinal helminth species, respectively. Among the study participants 21.6% were infected with hookworm, 18.8% with Opisthorchis viverrini-like (Ov-like) infection, 4.8% with Strongyloides stercoralis, 2.3% with Ascaris lumbricoides, 1.5% with Trichuris trichiura, and 3.3% with Taenia spp. Ov-like infection was of high prevalence in the southern (28.8%) and central (21.3%) provinces, while hookworm (26.3%), A. lumbricoides (7.3%), T. trichiura (3.1%), and Taenia spp. (4.2%) were prevalent in the northern provinces. Risk analysis showed that men were more likely to be infected with hookworm [adjusted odds ratio (aOR) = 1.2, P = 0.019]. The Lao-Tai ethnic group had a 5.2-times (P < 0.001) higher chance of having Ov-like infection than the minorities. Possession of toilet facility at home was associated with reduced odds for Ov-like (aOR = 0.4, P < 0.001) and hookworm (aOR = 0.6, P < 0.001) infections. Conclusions: Our study provides a nationwide update of the intestinal helminth prevalence among adults in Lao PDR. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first Lao nationwide survey on intestinal helminth infections and risk factors in adults. It provides crucial information for national control programs for intestinal helminth infections in Lao PDR. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Two generations of investigative journalists are mixed together in Chinese editorial boards: those who started before 2010 and those who came after. The former contributed to the rise of investigative journalism in commercial media outlets in the 1990s and 2000s, and the latter have experienced the economic crisis of the traditional outlets and neo-authoritarianism since the rise to power of Xi Jinping. Interviews with 29 investigative journalists show that a transformation of professional values has occurred in the under 35 generation compared to their peers over 35, as the media ecosystem itself transformed in the 2010s. Changes in the journalists' academic training and social origin have also contributed to this transformation of values, which ultimately serves Xi Jinping's long-term authoritarian political agenda.

Objective To understand the current situation and influencing factors of breastfeeding in the four districts of Kunming, and explore the room for improvement of the current breastfeeding rate in Kunming, so as to provide a realistic basis for breastfeeding knowledge publicity and training mode. Methods A convenient sampling method was used to select 5 tertiary hospitals and community health service centers in 4 districts of Panlong, Xishan, Wuhua District and Guandu of Kunming City. The mothers of infants and young children in the pediatric clinic and the child health and vaccination clinic were given questionnaires to conduct the breastfeeding questionnaire survey. Results 44.7% of the infants were fed exclusively from 0 to 6 months, 36.6% were fed mixed from 0 to 6 months, and 18.7% were fed artificially from 0 to 6 months. The median duration of breastfeeding was 10 months and the median duration of exclusive breastfeeding was 4 months. Logistic regression analysis showed that social support, working during lactation, knowledge of breastfeeding, sleep status of mothers, self-efficacy, number of children’s diseases in the past year, and husband’s support for breastfeeding had statistical significance on the occurrence of breastfeeding (P < 0.05). Conclusion Breastfeeding in urban areas of Kunming is at a low level, affected by many factors, and has not yet reached the goals of the global strategy of infant and young child feeding, and it is necessary to develop a reasonable nursing plan to improve the breastfeeding rate and breastfeeding duration.

Background: Recognizing the causes of stillbirths and their associated conditions is essential to reduce its occurrence. Objective: To describe information on stillbirths in Brazil during the past decade. Search strategy: A literature search was performed from January 2010 to December 2020. Selection criteria: Original observational studies and clinical trials. Data collection and analysis: Data were manually extracted to a spreadsheet and descriptive analysis was performed. Results: A total of 55 studies were included; 40 studies (72.2%) used the official data stored by national public health systems. Most articles aimed to estimate the rate and trends of stillbirth (60%) or their causes (55.4%). Among the 16 articles addressing the causes of death, 10 (62.5%) used the International Classification of Diseases; most of the articles only specified the main cause of death. Intrauterine hypoxia was the main cause reported (ranging from 14.3% to 54.9%). Conclusion: Having a national system based on compulsory notification of stillbirths may not be sufficient to provide quality information on occurrence and, especially, causes of death. Further improvements of the attribution and registration of causes of deaths and the implementation of educational actions for improving reporting systems are advisable. Finally, expanding the investigation of contributing factors associated with stillbirths would create an opportunity for further development of prevention strategies in low‐ and middle‐income countries such as Brazil. Synopsis: The national system with official data on fetal deaths is a crucial source of information in Brazil; however, there are limitations for reporting causes of deaths. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this article, the life and works of Ahmed bin Mahmud al-Esam el-Karamânî al-Lârendî (d. 971/1564), one of the Ottoman commentators, the manuscripts of the work named Tefsîru'l-Karamânî, its nature, method, issues about whether it is a summary or a tafsir will be discussed. There are many copies of Tafsîru'l-Karamani in the Turkish Manuscripts Libraries belonging to the author and the copyists. The work was first written as a draft by the author and then it was finalized. There are some confusions in the records of the books and libraries in the information given about both the author and the work. An effort has been made to eliminate the misinformation and confusion about the work and the author by making a general scan of this huge work, which consists of twelve volumes. There are reasons why such a large work and its author are not famous. We can count the reasons such as the author's deafness, leaving Payitaht as a result of the disagreement between him and Selim the second (974-982/1566-1574) and settling in the town of Lârende in Karaman province, and the predominance of the transport aspect of his work. As a result, the work on the arbitration of the entire work has come to an end. It is important that the work is completed and presented to the benefit of scholars. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The challenges accompanying the investigation of homicide have been observed for some time. Although police today can gather evidence in ways not imagined decades ago, the use of forensic science and technology (FST) have created challenges and consequences for modern-day homicide investigations. While 'digital footprints' are increasingly expected in court proceedings, the provision of and analysis of FST data falls to the police who face resource shortages and other challenges. We surveyed homicide investigators across Alberta to examine their perceptions of FST and the implications of FST for their work. Participants revealed that data volume, lack of expertise and resource constraints result in frustration with FST and the demands it creates. At the same time, most participants pointed to civilianization as the means through which technology can provide full advantage to homicide (and other) investigations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Forensic science holds a special place in the line of sciences that „arm‟ criminal prosecution officers, prosecutors, experts and judges with effective methods and tools of establishing the truth in criminal cases. Appearing as a simple empirical field of knowledge, with the task of adapting the achievements of technical and natural sciences to the needs of the criminal trial, forensic science has traveled a long and difficult path of transformation into one of the most developed and requested legal sciences. Forensic science emerged and evolves as a science that, through its provisions, supports the activity of law enforcement bodies regarding the establishment of truth, the administration of justice and the prevention of crimes. The development of these provisions is the result of the research of two types of human activity - the activity of preparing, committing and concealing crimes and its antipode - the activity related to the discovery, investigation of criminal cases and their examination in court. Thereafter, forensic science studies the specific regularities that direct these types of activity, elaborating practical recommendations for the fight against criminality, by which it is understood the entire activity of criminal prosecution bodies, forensic examination institutions and courts of law in order to establish the truth in criminal trials. Through the study conducted, we attempt to highlight the character of forensic science, its role in the system of legal sciences and its current development trends. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Corruption occurs when there is a misuse of current resources to maximize personal benefits at the expense of other parties, causing financial problems and preventing the development of emerging economies. Forensic accounting services utilize financial data to solve legal disputes. Saudi Arabia's government does not tolerate obstacles that impede the realization of its ambitious Vision 2030, a long-term plan for transforming society and reforming the economy. The war on corruption has been observed in Saudi Arabian domestic policy. Whether the forensic accounting profession and the readiness of accountants qualified to conduct forensic inquiries and investigations are effectively accompanied by the government's fight is probed. This study explores the current state of forensic accounting in Saudi Arabia. Potential means of employing such status to make Saudi Vision 2030 a reality to combat corruption and the ability of forensic accounting to ease the government's fight are also investigated. A questionnaire was conducted on 181 participants comprising accountants, auditors, judges, accountancy academics, Oversight and Anti-Corruption Authority employees, and any supervisory body in Saudi Arabia. The results show that 46% of the surveyed participants were unaware of forensic accounting, implying that despite its significance and demand for its services, forensic accounting is undersupplied in Saudi Arabia. Thus, it is inferred that the current state of forensic accounting is below the required level. To address this issue, forensic accounting should be incorporated into accounting curricula, accountants should join specialized scholarship programs and seek to be certified forensic accountants. Policy-makers must develop charter institutions and related forensic accounting standards. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Purpose: The purpose of the paper is to describe and graphically visualise the investigation procedure carried out by the Chief Sanitary Inspector (GIS) as part of an entity’s introduction of foodstuffs, especially dietary supplements into the market in the Republic of Poland. Methodology: The basis for the paper was a study of the legislation governing the investigation procedure carried out by the Chief Sanitary Inspector in Poland. In addition, it involved an analysis of the comments to the current legislation and of the subject literature available in international and domestic reference databases. Findings: The conducted study resulted in the development of a visualisation of the investigation procedure for dietary supplements’ notification in Poland. A criticism of the aforementioned procedure and issues that require regulation are included in the paper. Practical implications: The developed procedure provides a useful visualisation of the legal requirements in the aforementioned area. Social implications: The presented discussion is intended to draw attention to the legal provisions that are important in terms of the life and health of consumers of dietary supplements. Originality: The procedure of introducing foodstuffs, especially dietary supplements into the market in the Republic of Poland is described in legislation. Similarly, legislation also describes the investigation procedure for non-compliances occurring during the notification of dietary supplements. Nevertheless, the authors proposed a description and visualisation of the procedure by analysing its legal conditions in detail. Furthermore, they drew attention to the provisions’ ambiguity and the resulting formal doubts. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Data breaches are becoming an increasingly prevalent and global concern due to their massive impact. One of the primary challenges in investigating data breach incidents is the unavailability of a specific framework that acknowledges the characteristics of a data breach incident and provides clear steps on how the investigative framework can comprehensively answer what, who, when, where, why, and how (5WH) questions. This paper aims to develop a novel digital forensic investigation framework that can overcome these data breach investigation challenges. The proposed framework utilizes the data breach breakdown phases to analyze data breach incidents according to their characteristics. The main contribution of our work is a novel digital forensic framework for data breach investigation that enhances the 5WH analysis depth by utilizing evidence classification and artifact visualization based on data breach breakdown phases. Furthermore, we design the framework components to provide comprehensive analysis results that make it easier for investigators to summarize the answers to the 5WH questions. To validate the framework, we apply it to a case study of enterprise-level data breach incidents. Based on the case study analysis, the proposed investigation framework successfully provides all the answers to the 5WH questions. This comprehensive answering ability is the study’s fundamental strength compared to other digital forensic investigation frameworks.

Abstract Background Alexithymia is a common psychological disorder. However, few studies have investigated its prevalence and predictors in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Therefore, we aimed to determine the prevalence and predictors of alexithymia in Chinese patients. Methods This cross-sectional study included 842 COPD patients to assess the prevalence and predictors of alexithymia using the 20-item Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS-20). We used the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) to assess anxiety and depression, the modified British Medical Research Council dyspnea Rating Scale (mMRC) to assess dyspnea, St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) to assess quality of life, and the age-adjusted Charlson comorbidity index (ACCI) to assess comorbidities. Alexithymia-related predictors were identified using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. Results The prevalence of alexithymia in COPD patients was 23.6% (199/842). Multivariate analysis showed that age [odds ratio (OR) 0.886; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.794–0.998], body mass index (OR 0.879; 95% CI 0.781–0.989), HADS-anxiety (OR 1.238; 95% CI 1.097–1.396), HADS-depression (OR 1.178; 95% CI 1.034–1.340), mMRC (OR 1.297; 95% CI 1.274–1.320), SGRQ (OR 1.627; 95% CI 1.401–1.890), ACCI (OR 1.165; 95% CI 1.051–1.280), and GOLD grade (OR 1.296; 95% CI 1.256–1.337) were independent predictors for alexithymia in patients with COPD. Conclusions The prevalence of alexithymia was high in Chinese COPD patients. Anxiety, depression, dyspnea, quality of life, comorbidities, and disease severity are independent risk factors, and age and BMI are predictive factors for alexithymia in COPD patients.

Is it important and necessary to know and make know main trends in Anglo-American Literature?the answer must be yes because of what follows. These trends are important for the new generation of modernist writers and readers in the sense that for the moment being it is a necessity to know these trends in order to situate a given author according to the way s/he is writing, thinking, expressing ideas… by doing so, to understand, analyze and interprete a work will be an easy task. Est-il important et nécessaire de connaitre et faire connaitre les principaux courants ainsi que tendances de la littérature Anglo-Américaine ? A cette question la réponse ne peut qu’être oui et cela pour des raisons suivantes. Ces courants ou tendances sont importants pour la nouvelle génération d’écrivains et lecteurs modernes dans ce sens que par le temps qui court c’est une nécessité de connaitre ces différentes tendances dans le but de situer un auteur donne selon sa façon d’écrire, de comprendre le monde, de penser, d’exprimer ses idées … et par cette façon de faire le lecteur sera capable de comprendre, analyser, interpréter une œuvre donnée sans beaucoup trop de difficultés.

Abstract Background Localized tibial strain is one of the hypotheses to explain residual pain after Oxford UKA. We evaluate whether the depth of the vertical cut during tibial resection correlates with medial knee pain. We aimed to investigate the association between the depth of tibial resection and medial knee pain after OUKA. Methods This prospective cohort study enrolled 85 patients (mean age: 64.5 ± 7.7 years) who underwent cemented OUKA at our institute during October 2018–June 2019. The depth of tibial resection was measured intraoperatively as the thickness of the anterior, middle, and posterior parts. The greatest of the three thicknesses was recorded. Medial knee pain was assessed at 6 weeks and followed to 6 months. Patients were divided into the pain (P) and no pain (NP) groups. Preoperative and postoperative radiographic findings and OKS were compared between groups. We used logistic regression to analyze the independent association. Results The mean preoperative Oxford Knee Score (OKS) was 27.2 ± 7.6. The incidence of medial knee pain was 23.5% at 6 weeks after OUKA. The P group had a significantly lower OKS at 6 weeks compared to the NP group (28.9 ± 9.7 vs 33.7 ± 6.5, p = 0.049). There was no significant difference in the depth of tibial resection between groups. Medial knee pain had resolved by 6 months in all patients, and the 6-month OKS was similar between groups. Conclusion Medial knee pain was found to be common in the early postoperative period after OUKA, but this pain spontaneously resolved by 6 months. As a range of tibial resection level, post-operative pain is not associated with tibial resection thickness in this study. Level of evidence Level II. Trial registration The study was approved by the Institutional review board of Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol university. [SIRB 691/2560(EC4)].

The essay draws a parallel between two female detectives in Romanian literature: Mihail Sadoveanu’s Vitoria Lipan and Rodica Ojog-Brașoveanu’s Minerva Tutovan. While Vitoria Lipan is not commonly regarded as a detective, Minerva Tutovan is a professional State Security officer and investigator. Mention will be made of their marital status, profession, pets, moral qualities and others, in an attempt to show that although they differ in many respects including education, background, social status, historical epoch and purpose, they are equally skilful in finding criminals and bringing them to justice. They will also be analysed as mentors: Vitoria for her son Gheorghiță and Minerva for her subordinate, lieutenant Vasile Dobrescu.

The aim of the work is to perform an analysis of certain crimes related to property threats. To analyse the methods and tactics of detection and investigation of the types of criminal offenses under research and on the basis of a detailed study of the peculiarities of the committing of the criminal offenses under research, to develop effective and upto-date methods of their identification. The following scientific research methods have been used in the development of the work: the teleological method of interpretation; the comparative method; the method of analysis and synthesis; the methods of induction and deduction; the modelling method. Main conclusions: the main problems in the field of the detection and prevention of crime over the last 30 years are that most criminalistics concepts run far behind the requirements of the modern era; changes in tactics related to identification and detection of property crimes have been largely technical in nature, they are lacking a sufficiently high level of theoretical basis to take into account modern technologies used to commit crimes and significantly changed structure of criminalistics characterisation of criminal offenses.

Over the decades, epistemologists and theorists of tourism have devoted considerable efforts in laying the foundations towards the discipline maturation. This so-called maturation would take the lead when tourism situated not only as a solid object of study but also professional publications reach a the scientific rigorism. The number of publications in the tourism fields has certainly been triplicated in the recent years, but today tourism has many barriers to become in a consolidated option. This happens because of many reasons. One of them associated to the problem of impact factor, the invention of academic prestige and the bibliometric studies. We, in this short note of research, explore the impossibilities, limitations and problems of the current tourism research which remains culturally embraced to impact factor logic. To put things in bluntly, the current obsession for impact factor in the academy is gradually leading the discipline into an unparalleled crisis.

Anaphylactic shock is a serious and rare adverse reaction， which can be life-threatening if not treated in time. COVID-19 vaccine is a newly marketed vaccine， and people pay high attention to its adverse reactions. This report summarized the investigation and management process of a case of anaphylactic shock after inoculation with COVID-19 vaccine， in order to provide reference for standardizing the diagnosis and management of anaphylactic shock after vaccination.

Crime and the institutional management of crime has become a leading topic in research, practice and education. According to various studies, detection of crimes happens by accident almost every year. Systematic detection is obviously still lacking considerably. The effectiveness of the fight against money laundering depends to a large extent on the organization of the problem of the system of collection, processing and use of information in the sphere of monitoring activities, which are necessary for detection, prevention of financial crime. The purpose of this article is to highlight the need to expand the accountant's area of competence by combining accounting and forensic investigation techniques, which will be a prerequisite in discovering and combating tax fraud. The essence of financial investigations as a practical activity consists in the application of a complex of knowledge of applied economics for the identification and elimination of different types of crimes.

The principle of the presumption of innocence is one of the principles regulated in the Criminal Procedure Code (KUHAP). The application of the principle of the presumption of innocence is closely related to the application of rights to individuals, for example to suspects in the crime of theft who are in the process of being investigated. The regulation of these rights is regulated concretely in the Criminal Procedure Code. However, despite this, the application of the principle of the presumption of innocence in this case the application of the rights of the suspect during the arrest and detention process is still not given much attention by police investigators. Therefore, the researcher raised two problem formulations. First, how is the application of every person arrested for committing the crime of theft to be considered innocent until there is an Inkracht Decision at the Pamekasan Police Resort. Second, how is the application of every person who is detained for the crime of theft must be considered innocent until the Inckracht Decision is made by the Pamekasan Resort Police. The research method used is a sociological juridical approach. It can be concluded that in the application of rights in the arrest process, two rights have not been implemented by the Pamekasan Police investigators, namely the suspect's right to ask the investigator to show an arrest warrant (Article 18 paragraph (1) KUHAP) and regarding the right for the family of the arrested suspect to receive a copy of the letter. an immediate arrest order (article 18 paragraph (3) KUHAP). While in the detention process, two rights have not been implemented, namely those related to the suspect's right to give information freely (article 52 KUHAP) and the suspect's right to obtain legal assistance and law enforcers are required to appoint legal counsel (article 54 KUHAP)

This research was to determine the form of providing protection for children's rights as victims of the crime of sexual intercourse during the investigation stage. This study uses a sociological juridical method with an empirical legal approach that describes the actual conditions that live in society. Data was collected by direct observation at the Criminal Investigation Unit of the PPA Police of the Batu City Resort Police, interviews with investigators and other related parties. The data analysis technique is the investigation of children's rights as victims of criminal acts of sexual intercourse based on Law no. 11 of 2012 concerning the Juvenile Criminal Justice System. The results of this study are that in the investigation process there are still obligations for children's rights that are not given or fulfilled, such as children being free from treatment that demeans their dignity and getting social advocacy assistance from child social workers during examinations at the police to determine physical, psychological and psychosocial conditions. The child is a victim of a crime of sexual intercourse.

Economic crimes cover a wide range of crimes, including fraud and fraud, money laundering, corruption, intellectual property crimes and environmental crimes. Economic crimes often have a cross-border element. The main objective of the research is to achieve a hierarchical classification of EU countries in terms of economic crime research, taking into account several specific indicators, indicators that constitute statistical variables of the research. Data classification methods aim to group statistical units into homogeneous groups or clusters according to recorded variables. Following the analysis, we can observe a very strange connection between the total number of Investigations initiated by the National Bureaus in 2021 and the number of investigations in which 2 countries are involved. At the same time, a very close connection can be observed between the total number of Investigations initiated by the National Bureaus in 2021 and the number of files still under investigation, opened in the years before 2021, from here we can conclude that the level of economic crime at the EU level is a consistent one in 2021 compared to previous years. We can also observe that both Germany, France and Italy are positioned very far from the rest of the countries, a possible explanation for this phenomenon is the efficiency and transparency of the judicial system in these countries, the low level of corruption that allows the investigation of more cases, but also the territorial extent and the high level of income from these countries, which attract a high level of economic crime.
