Important Source Of Research Research Articles

Google’s Ventricular Tachycardia

Wide access to information and images on the internet and social networks has been considered an important source of research and understanding of the most varied clinical pathologies. As a result, the term “doctor Google” was coined to draw attention to the growing interest of the general population in this alternative source of research. The aim of this case report was to emphasize that physicians should be aware of the fact that complementary exams available on the internet can be a confounding factor and a source of information or images that can interfere with the diagnostic analysis and potentially with the clinical management of patients.

Wybrane problemy mieszkańców Nowej Huty na podstawie listów do „Głosu Nowej Huty” z lat 1956–1970

In 1949, the communist rulers of Poland decided to build Nowa Huta, the steelworks and city near Kraków. According to the propaganda, it was supposed to be the first model socialist city in Poland. Residents were to experience social promotion, comfortable apartments, cultural institutions, and rest in their home space. In addition to housing, well-stocked shops, high -quality services, assistance in daily activities such as food preparation, health care and childcare were offered. However, the reality differed from this propaganda vision. In the local press such as the weekly Budujemy Socjalizm, later transformed into Głos Nowej Huty, letters to the editorial office complained about housing problems, insufficient supplies, queues, difficulties in organizing holidays, or low quality of the cultural offer. Letters to the editor are an important source for research on the everyday life of the Polish People’s Republic. They reflected the small and big problems of the inhabitants seeking help from journalists, believing that the press had substantial influence on the ruling class.

How the Russian-Ukrainian war broke out – on the backstage of international politics from Jakub Kumoch’s perspective

This conversation between Igor Janke and Jakub Kumoch is an important source for research into the beginning of the Russian-Ukrainian war and the role of Polish diplomacy in the winter and spring of 2022. After all, it is not often that direct participants in high-level international talks share their memories of key historical moments, along with many important details and observations, less than a year after the events themselves. This is what Jakub Kumoch does – and he does it in a colourful way. A Polish political scientist and diplomat who has served as Poland’s ambassador to Switzerland, Turkey and other countries, Kumoch was State Secretary for International Affairs in the Chancellery of the President of the Republic of Poland from 2021 to 2023. During this time, he was in close contact with many governments, including those of Ukraine, the United States, France and Germany. In the form of a long chat between two friends, he shared his memories of this period with Igor Janke, a well-known Polish journalist. This conversation is also extremely interesting because it vividly illustrates the thinking in Polish government circles about the challenges to regional and global security associated with Russia’s war against Ukraine and the future of Polish-Ukrainian relations, including the historical dialogue. This interview was recorded on 19 January 2023. It was broadcast three days later on Janke’s Układ Otwarty podcast and on this author’s YouTube channel. 1 Jakub Kumoch resigned from his government post just one week before the interview, on 12 January 2023. He cited important family reasons. The original Polish version of this interview is available on the Układ Otwarty YouTube channel. We are publishing an English translation of it here. The lively, spontaneous exchange of ideas and the colloquial language of these two friends, as well as some broken thoughts and threads – a feature characteristic of many live conversations – may give some readers the impression of an under-edited conversation. This is a false impression. In accordance with the requirements of the source material, we are publishing the interview in its entirety, without any cutting or editing, and with editorial insertions in only a few places to make the flow of thought more understandable

Evaluation for druggability of traditional Chinese medicine preparations in medical institutions based on human use experience

Traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) preparations in medical institutions are an important source of research and development(R&D) of TCM new drug. With years of usage in therapy, these preparations' safety and effectiveness have generally been validated in clinic. However, there are still a few disadvantages in TCM new medicine development, such as similar prescriptions, excessive prescription ingredients, too broad clinical orientation, lack of solid clinical data, issue in pharmaceutical quality control, and intellectual property disputes. Nowadays, the Three-Combined Evaluation System has strengthened policy support for the new TCM R&D. In order to improve the success rate of TCM R&D, due to the difficulties within, this paper proposes the process of transforming TCM preparations in medical institutions into new TCM and advocates the evaluation for druggability based on Human Use Experience(HUE). The potencial preparations ought to follow traditional Chinese Medical theory, sufficient HUE data in indication, syndrome type of TCM, target population, usage, dosage, and course of treatment are required. Particular attention should be paid to the source, evolution, and improvement process of prescription, and evaluate the dosage, ingredients, and herb resources of prescription. To assess the feasibility of mass production, it is necessary to determine whether the pharmaceutical process is mostly consistent with the new drug and whether the dosage form is reasonable. By summarizing the clinical application of the preparations, the whole picture of its clinical application would be reveal as much as possible. It is beneficial to evaluate its clinical value and R&D prospect. In consideration of the lack of clinical safety data of preparations, safety profile needs to be collected according to the prescription. The quality of clinical data needs to be evaluated by focusing on the integrity and accuracy of data to reduce bias and confusion. Significant care should be paid to intellectual property protection to avoid legal disputes.

Історико-культурна ідентифікація карпатського пограниччя

Research objective. The aim of the work is to reveal the historical and cultural identification of the Carpathian border. The main principle is a comprehensive approach to solving tasks. The methodology of the research is based on the methodological principles of the historical approach to the analysis of historical phenomena, as well as the use of theoretical, cultural, art approaches, which allowed to reveal the relationship between ethnic groups, regions and countries. The scientific novelty of the study is an attempt to comprehensively cover the identification of the Carpathian border in the historical and cultural aspect. Conclusions. The general characteristic of the history of the settlement of Ruthenians, Lemkos, Verkhovynkos, Boykоs, and Dolynians from the period of Kievan Rus to the present is revealed. It is noted that the Carpathian region is a unique natural and cultural area, which by the specifics of relief, natural conditions and climate has carved a unique layer of culture of the inhabitants of the mountains. One of the most striking manifestations of the Carpathian region is the traditional forms of settlement and related architectural monuments, the study of which can serve as an important source of research on ethnic history and cultural and historical interethnic relations; historical evidence of the high material and spiritual culture of our ancestors; a valuable arsenal of knowledge for the further development of culture and, in particular, an excellent source of inspiration for contemporary artists in creating a new environment; strong evidence of the way of life in previous historical periods; an important factor in the process of educating the younger generation in the field of emotions and the formation of aesthetic thoughts, etc. It is proved that the historical events of different epochs, the influence of the policy of merging peoples and cultures have certainly caused great damage to Ukrainian traditional culture. Today the local features of the regions are being transformed, which leads to the loss of uniqueness and originality of cultural phenomena of ethnographic groups of Ukrainians both in the Carpathian region and far beyond.

Британські газети як джерело дослідження служби жінок у Королівських Збройних силах у роки Другої світової війни

The aim of the work is to analyse the contents of British newspapers during the World War II and to highlight blocks of information that can be used in the study of women’s service in the His Majesty’s Armed Forces. The methodology of research includes methods of analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction, analogy, comparison and generalization, content-analysis. The latter made it possible to analyse in a social context the qualitative and quantitative content of newspaper materials, to identify a number of facts and trends concerning the problem of the presence of British women in the army. We also used a gender approach during analysing the specifi cs of public discourse on women in military. It gave an idea on the gender roles that existed at that time in British society. Scientifi c novelty. Newspapers as a source for research on women’s service in the British Armed Forces are the subject of a separate academic study for the fi rst time. A number of materials from British periodicals of 1939–1945 for the fi rst time were introduced into scientifi c circulation, which makes it possible to trace fully the main trends in the activities of women on the service in the His Majesty’s Armed Forces during the war, their way of life, etc. Conclusions. British newspapers are an important source for research on the service of women in the His Majesty’s Armed Forces, as well as the peculiarities of public discourse concerning it and the gender policy of the government of that time. Active digitization and granting access to broad layers of British periodicals made it possible to analyse these important primary sources remotely and with the use of modern means of targeted search for the necessary information in them. One can get the information on the recruitment of British women to the army; conditions of their service in various organizations; features of the state’s propaganda campaign aimed at attracting as many British women as possible to serve in the armed forces, etc. Based on the information from the newspapers’ articles, it is possible to form partially a picture of the peculiarities of public discourse on servicewomen, which was very ambiguous, as along as with emphasizing the importance of the work of members of the three women’s services, discussions were held on the attractiveness of their form and appearance in general, etc. In addition, based on the analysis of the content and frequency of publications, one can admit the growing importance of the role of military women as the military confl ict unfolds, expanding their positions and increasing the responsibility of those who held them, society’s attitude to changes in organisation of women’s service.

The case of the Keeper of antiquities. Materials from the1939 criminal case file

The writer Yury Dombrovsky did not leave behind any diaries of memoirs. Glimpses of his life are scattered across autobiographical poems and prose. Although an important source for research, letters and reminiscences of friends are often limited to a single episode or a brief period, usually of the writer’s later life in Moscow. What proved indispensable in the process of recovering facts and compiling a good half of the biography — spanning a lengthy period from the 1920s to the 1950s — were materials of the criminal proceedings. They also help decipher the writer’s major two-part novel, a fact he acknowledged himself. However, the archive materials were only recently declassified. The article aims to reconstruct a period of Yury Dombrovsky’s life and introduces the hitherto unpublished materials of his third criminal case of 1939. The author compares testimonies found in Dombrovsky’s writings and memoirs of his friends and acquaintances with documents preserved in archives, including tip-offs to the authorities.

Liturgical and Pastoral Activity as a Crime in Soviet Ukraine: The Case of Greek Catholic Priest, Roman Bakhtalovskyy, CSsR (1897–1985)

This article examines the liturgical life of the “Underground” Greek Catholic Church through the example of the life of the prominent priest, writer and poet, Roman Bakhtalovskyy, CSsR. After 1946, the Soviet government in Ukraine prohibited the activity of this Church. Therefore, the sacramental activity of Greek Catholic priests was performed in complete secrecy until 1989. The analysis of archival criminal cases is an important source of research during this difficult period for the Church, in which pastoral activity was a pretext for arrest and imprisonment, and sacred objects were seized during searches. This article analyzes in detail the criminal case of Fr. Roman Bakhtalovskyy, which was opened by special services in 1968–1969. The confiscated objects of analysis provide valuable information about the liturgical activity, devotional practices and spirituality of that period of persecution of Catholics in Soviet Ukraine which coincided with the reforms of the Second Vatican Council and their implementation elsewhere.

СИНТЕЗ ЗОБРАЖЕНЬ-ОРНАМЕНТІВ

The article developed the mathematical model for the synthesis of ornamental images and implemented the software editor of ornamental images, based on symmetry theory. The paper shows the fundamental role of symmetry. It is analyzed that the symmetry theory methods are used in physics, chemistry, biology, and engineering. It was found that symmetry is based on transformation and storage. In addition, the symmetrical system is based on a set of invariants that are built according to certain rules. It is shown that the symmetry of borders and the symmetry of mesh ornaments are used in ornaments. The synthesis of ornamental images is considered on the example of Ukrainian folk embroidery. The contribution of foreign and domestic scientists to the development of the symmetry theory and synthesis of images is analyzed. It is indicated that Ukrainian folk embroidery is the valuable property of the cultural and material heritage of people and an important source of research. It is analyzed that there are more than 100 types of different embroidery techniques. The role of famous Ukrainian artists in the popularization and organization of Ukrainian folk embroidery museums is presented. It is investigated that embroidery is built from separate motives or from ornaments. Ornaments consist of sub-ornaments. A sub-ornament is a pattern consisting of rhythmically ordered identical elements (built on one group transformation). Subornaments are divided into reports. The report is called the minimum for the area of the area that can cover the sub-ornament, using only transfers. The report, in turn, is divided into even smaller particles: motive or elementary picture. It is found that in embroidery ornaments there are 7 groups of stripe and 12 - plan. Mathematical models of images-ornaments synthesis for groups of a strip and plan groups are developed. Mathematical models are given for ideal ornaments. If offsets of axes or centers of symmetries, it is necessary to adjust the coefficients of transformation matrices displacement. Samples of embroidered ornaments of the corresponding plane and stripe groups are provided. Editor of image-ornaments has been developed, which allows the synthesis of complex ornamental images based on analytical formulas of elementary picture, sub-ornament, and ornament. Examples of real and synthesized samples of Ukrainian folk embroidery are provided. The scientific novelty of the work lies in the development of mathematical models of ornaments on the basis of symmetry groups on the strip and the plane. The practical value of the work lies in the development of an image editor-ornaments.

Celebrations at the Berlin Court as Reported by Secretary of the English Ambassador Philip Plantamour

Celebrations were an important element in the functioning of royal and princely courts in Europe in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. They added splendor to the residences in which they were held and demonstrated the status of rulers: well-directed festivities spoke of their organisers’ political status. Such events not only took place in the closed courtyards of palaces, but also in the open air, which guaranteed a larger audience and made it possible to invite the media. Such events were also observed by foreign diplomats, who described them in their reports. This type of information can be found in the correspondence of Philip Plantamour, secretary of the English Ambassador George Stepney. An analysis of the manuscripts he left reveals an interesting picture of the ceremony as seen through his eyes. These descriptions do not have a specific pattern: he simply described what he saw or had the opportunity to hear. The analysed accounts are an important source for research on the customs, ceremonies, and celebrations at the royal court in Berlin at the turn of the eighteenth century. Philip Plantamour’s exact descriptions show us the glamour, style, and role of these events in the context of propaganda and their political and social dimensions.

Deutsche Rechtsbücher des 13. und 14. Jahrhunderts und ihre Deutung als „Kaiserrecht“

The law books of the 13th and 14th centuries are an important source for research into medieval German law. It is significant that they are partly referred to as ʺKaiserrechtʺ, a secular law derived from the supreme authority, the emperor, and no longer just from custom and tribal law. Whether they actually already contain law established by the emperor will be examined in the present work. The best known law books, the ʺSachsenspiegelʺ and the ʺKaiserliches Land‐ und Lehnrechtsbuchʺ (known as the ʺSchwabenspiegelʺ), are relatively well researched compared to the ʺKleines Kaiserrechtʺ. Its recently published new edition not only presents the complete text of the reference manuscript Corvey, but also underlines the importance of this law book as ʺKaiserrechtʺ, revealing many more legal innovations than previously thought.

A Comprehensive Review and Technical Guideline for Optimal Design and Operations of Fuel Cell-Based Cogeneration Systems

The need for energy is increasing from year to year and has to be fulfilled by developing innovations in energy generation systems. Cogeneration is one of the matured technologies in energy generation, which has been implemented since the last decade. Cogeneration is defined as energy generation unit that simultaneously produced electricity and heat from a single primary fuel source. Currently, the implementation of this system has been spread over the world for stationary and mobile power generation in residential, industrial and transportation uses. On the other hand, fuel cells as an emerging energy conversion device are potential prime movers for this cogeneration system due to its high heat production and flexibility in its fuel usage. Even though the fuel cell-based cogeneration system has been popularly implemented in research and commercialization sectors, the review regarding this technology is still limited. Focusing on the optimal design of the fuel cell-based cogeneration system, this study attempts to provide a comprehensive review, guideline and future prospects of this technology. With an up-to-date literature list, this review study becomes an important source for researchers who are interested in developing this system for future implementation.

Semi-supervised domain adaptation and collaborative deep learning for dual sentiment analysis

Sentiment classification is a much needed topic that has grabbed the interest of many researchers. Especially, classification of data from customer reviews on various commercial products has been an important source of research. A model called supervised dual sentiment analysis is used to handle the polarity shift problem that occurs in sentiment classification. Labeling the reviews is a tedious and time consuming process. Even, a classifier trained on one domain may not perform well on the other domain. To overcome these limitations, in this paper we propose semi-supervised domain adaptive dual sentiment analysis that train a domain independent classifier with few labeled data. Reviews are of varying length and hence, classification is more accurate if long term dependency between the words is considered. We propose a collaborative deep learning approach to the dual sentiment analysis. Long short term memory (LSTM) recurrent neural network is used to handle sequence prediction to classify the reviews more accurately. LSTM takes more time to extract features from the reviews. Convolution neural network is used before LSTM layers to extract features resulting in the reduction of training time compared to LSTM alone.

Ad fontes (The Codices of Revúca)

Abstract The article presents the Codices of Revúca as one of the most important sources of research on Slovak fairy tales through the interpretation of the Berona fairy tale. This topic as a whole but also in the context of the fairy tale theory is still unexplored, just like most similar manuscripts of Slovak romanticists who were at the birth of the folklore studies in their pre-scientific period. It is purposly conceived as a material study with the aim of demonstrating the need to return to archive sources and the research potential offered by such materials. It is, however, not the specific objective of this article to present an analysis of the texts quoted in the annex. The article consists of two parts. The first one evaluates the existing material base of the research on the Codices of Revúca (J. Polívka, M. Dzubáková), highlights the limitations arising from the marginalisation of the available materials, offers precise records from the Codices of Revúca on the texts for the interpretation of the fairy tale and, finally, corrects the information on one of the key texts from this source, the letter written by S. Reuss on December 17, 1843, the full translation of which forms part of the text in the annex. The second (analytical) part of the article deals with the contextualisation and comparison of three commentaries on the Berona fairy tale (S. Reuss, J. Francisci, S. Ormis). All three texts are fully available in the annex.

To be or to consume? That is the question: Semiotics Analysis of Advertisements of largest Retail Supermarkets in Brazil

The study of representations and images involved in advertising campaigns is a recurrent resource of marketing managers. Therefore, understanding and analyzing advertisements and their semiotics becomes an important source of research. In this context, the following research problem arises: what are the complementarity, contrariety and contradiction relations that carry the advertisements of supermarket retailers? Thus, the main objective is to analyze semiotic advertising of national supermarket chains through the constitution of a semiotic square. For that, the greimasian methodology (Greimas, 1973) was used, which sustains a generative path of meaning, where the relations existing between the signifiers produce signification. We investigated the advertisements of the largest retail supermarket brands in Brazil, by price, product and people variables. Thus, the semiotic square was created for the advertising of supermarket retailers in Brazil.

Iconographic changes of ecclesiastic seals in the medieval Hungarian Kingdom (illustrated by the example of Spis chapter provosts)
