Abstract:
Introduction. The scientific paper discusses some issues related to the functions performed by the investigator in criminal proceedings. The authors identified and justified the significance of the research topic under discussion and made suggestions for considering documenting as an investigator’s function. The chosen problem identified the purpose of the study as highlighting the documenting of the investigator’s decisions as a separate function. Methods. With the help of the dialectical method of research, generalization, comparison, analysis, and synthesis, as well as others, it became possible to form the paper in the context of considering questions about the functions of the investigator. Results. The main results of the study are recommendations on drawing attention to the problems of documenting and supporting procedural actions and decisions in criminal proceedings. The paper discusses the issues of functions in criminal proceedings, their meaning, functions of parties, and their division among them. Currently, there is no consensus on the scope of the investigator’s functions in criminal proceedings, which is due to his ambiguous dual role as prosecutor or researcher in criminal proceedings. Conclusions. As a result of the conducted research, the authors have come to the conclusion that it is necessary to develop and implement at the substatutory level some recommendations and instructions on the rules of record-keeping at the preliminary investigation. The importance of professional training for future specialists, including in drafting criminal procedural acts and documents, is noted. The necessity of further investigation of questions about the functions of the investigator is established.

In the process and the aspiration to assert itself as a distinct branch of the law, the contraventional procedural law seeks to demonstrate that the legal relationship it regulates is a separate one, completely different from that of the contraventional law. Therefore, this article has as its main objective of study, the justification of the specificity of the legal report which makes it possible for the procedural contraventional law to be permanently separated from the criminal procedural law, branches of the law which differ according to a number of characteristics. Not with standing the fact that the procedure for examining contraventions is required to be more simplified, taking into account the low seriousness of the offense, however, in a country where the abuse of office is at home and established officers see every citizen as an offender or possibly a criminal, legislative measures that would closely monitor their actions cannot be effective without imposing an infringement procedure under separate rules. Some circumstances specific to the geographical area in which we live, the wrong perception on behalf of public officials on the procedure for documenting contraventions, the traditions and the specificity of the post-socialist society, require that a distinct branch of law to be regulated - an procedual contraventional law. The description of the legal report around which this branch of law operates is the subject of this work.

Abstract:
Neonates in the neonatal intensive care nursery experience multiple, painful, tissue-damaging procedures daily. Pain among neonates is often underestimated and untreated, producing untoward consequences. A literature review established strong evidence supporting the use of sucrose as an analgesic for minor procedural pain among neonates. A review of unit practices and nurses’ experiential evidence initiated the production of a standardized protocol in our unit at the University of Washington Medical Center NICU in Seattle.Nursing practices surrounding sucrose use differed widely in dose, timing, and patient application. We carefully evaluated evidence documenting the effectiveness as well as the safety of sucrose administration and wrote a protocol and practice standards for our primarily premature patient population. This article describes the development and execution of a standardized, nurse-implemented, sucrose protocol to reduce procedural pain.

Abstract:
The paper examines the system of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) documenting war crimes in the context of Russia's armed aggression against Ukraine. The research analyzes the unprecedented consolidation of Ukrainian civil society in documenting international crimes committed since 2014, particularly focusing on the period after February 24, 2022. The study reveals the classification of NGOs involved in documentation activities, including international human rights organizations, specialized NGOs focusing on specific documentation methodologies, and organizations specializing in particular types of international law violations. The paper identifies the advantages of NGO documentation activities, including flexibility in resource allocation, freedom from procedural constraints, higher public trust, rapid information exchange, and liberty in choosing ways to utilize collected information. The research outlines various forms of documentation used by NGOs: interviewing individuals, examining crime scenes, photo and video recording, collecting physical evidence and digital information, Internet-based investigations, documenting injuries, and self-documentation by witnesses or victims. The study analyzes the risks and challenges in NGO documentation activities, including fragmentation of approaches, non-compliance with basic documentation principles, untimely information sharing, and security concerns. Special attention is paid to the procedural aspects of using NGO-collected information as evidence in criminal proceedings. The paper examines the recent developments in the framework for cooperation between NGOs and law enforcement agencies, particularly focusing on the Memorandum of Understanding signed by the Office of the Prosecutor General. The research concludes by proposing the development of standard operating procedures for information exchange and recommending the adoption of a comprehensive strategy for cooperation between investigative bodies and civil society institutions in investigating international crimes.

Abstract:
PurposeSharing information about work processes has proven to be difficult. This applies especially to information shared from those who participate in a process to those who remain outsiders. The purpose of this article is to increase understanding of how professionals document their work practices with a focus on information making by analysing how archaeologists document their information work in archaeological reports.Design/methodology/approachIn total 47 Swedish archaeological reports published in 2018 were analysed using close reading and constant comparative categorisation.FindingsEven if explicit narratives of methods and work process have particular significance as documentation of information making, the evidence of information making is spread out all over the report document in (1) procedural narratives, (2) descriptions of methods and tools, (3) actors and actants, (4) photographs, (5) information sources, (6) diagrams and drawings and (7) outcomes. The usability of reports as conveyors of information on information making depends more on how a forthcoming reader can live with it as a whole rather than how to learn of the details it recites.Research limitations/implicationsThe study is based on a limited number of documents representing one country and one scholarly and professional field.Practical implicationsIncreased focus on the internal coherence of documentation and the complementarity of different types of descriptions could improve information sharing. Further, descriptions of concepts that refer to work activities and the situation when information came into being could similarly improve their usability.Originality/valueThere is little earlier research on how professionals and academics document and describe their information activities.

Abstract:
This article examines the contemporary basis of legitimate governance in Canada by identifying and documenting four different bases of political authority: state-centred, market-based, expert and popular authority. The co-existence of these competing bases of authority, traced to cultural shifts and developments associated with globalization, creates conflicting domestic and international norms of procedural and substantive legitimacy. The article argues that effective and legitimate governing in Canada requires greater incorporation of elements of popular authority, and reform, not abandonment, of state-centred authority.

Abstract:
The article is devoted to a comprehensive analysis of methodological approaches to the documentation and investigation of espionage. The focus is on the theory of evidence as a fundamental tool that ensures the systematic and scientific validity of the collection and use of evidence in espionage cases. The purpose of the article is to determine the role of the theory of evidence in the documentation of espionage activities and to develop recommendations for increasing the effectiveness of counterintelligence, operational and investigative activities and pre-trial investigation of such crimes. It is proved that espionage poses a direct threat to national security, and the successful exposure and evidence of this latent crime contributes to the strengthening of state security and the rule of law in the field of countering intelligence and sabotage attacks. The article proposes scientifically sound approaches that allow law enforcement agencies to more effectively detect and document espionage activities in the context of modern security challenges. It is emphasized that a successful investigation of espionage requires a clear definition of the subject of proof – a set of facts that must be established to prove guilt in espionage (in particular, the fact of illegal collection or transmission of information constituting a state secret, the suspect’s connection with foreign intelligence, intent to harm the state, etc.). The theory of proof offers a system of principles according to which each of these elements must be confirmed by proper and admissible evidence. In the process of investigating espionage, such a theoretical basis helps investigators systematically put forward and verify investigative versions, avoid randomness in collecting evidence, and ensure their proper procedural formality. As a result, adherence to scientific approaches to proof increases the likelihood of successful disclosure of the crime and a guilty verdict that is resistant to possible appeals in court. The work details the main methods of collecting, verifying, and evaluating evidence in espionage cases that arise from the theory of proof. It is noted that the collection of evidence in such cases has its own specifics due to the high level of secrecy of criminal activity. Special attention is paid to the specifics of documenting acts of espionage as an integral part of the process of proving. Documentation is understood as recording the revealed facts of illegal activity in the procedural form prescribed by law so that such facts acquire the status of evidence. The article notes that due to the conspiratorial nature of espionage, its documentation is inextricably linked with the conduct of counterintelligence and operational-search measures. The article concludes with an emphasis on the fact that only the synergy of science and practice – the introduction of modern theory of evidence into the daily activities of law enforcement agencies – will ensure the inevitability of punishment for espionage and the protection of the national security of Ukraine.

Abstract:
Object The definition and determination of quality health care is an important topic. The purpose of this study was to develop a longitudinal method to define a quality procedure by creating a formal approach to pre- and postoperative outcomes documentation. The authors worked to define quality outcomes by first documenting the patient's condition. Goals were determined together by the surgeon and the patient and then were evaluated to see if those goals were met. Methods The population consisted of cancer patients with newly diagnosed metastatic brain disease who were scheduled to undergo stereotactic radiosurgery. Surgeons recorded perioperatively objective information related to preoperative goals, clinical findings, surgical performance and/or error, and whether goals were met. In addition, patients completed pre- and postprocedure questionnaires (Rand 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey 1.0 [SF-36]). Results Procedural goals, defined as completing radiosurgery without error or complication and same-day discharge, were met in all patients. The clinically predetermined goal of tumor palliation was met in all but 1 patient at follow-up. The SF-36 scores remained stable except for the general health domain, which was lower (p = 0.006). Conclusions Procedural goals can be defined and objectively measured serially. The authors think that quality care can be defined as a process that achieves predefined goals without significant error and maintains or improves health.

Abstract:
The form of the evidentiary process also determines the form of administration of justice. The question of which was investigated in the article is a usual aspiration to improve the process of proving, thanks to the change of the procedural form of fixation in criminal proceedings. So far, the main means of fixing the course and results of a procedural action is a protocol. Even if the legislator necessarily provides video recording as an alternative form of fixation (for example, during the search), the protocol remains the main means of documenting the procedural actions of the body of pre-trial investigation. In the article the author tries to show the dependence of criminal procedural activity of subjects of proving and the court from the protocol, the influence of this means to the modern process of proving and makes a conclusion that the mentioned «pattern» is a bad decision in law-enforcement activity, that is antipattern. In addition, the evolution of the protocol as a form of fixation in criminal cases (pre-revolutionary period and the Soviet time), as well as a certain comparison of the existing procedural legislation of Ukraine and Western European countries in terms of forms of fixation in criminal proceedings and the impact of such forms on the process of proving is studied in a certain way. With the development of technology, as well as with the existing modern digital technology, including in the daily life of every person, it would be obvious to change this form of recording of criminal proceedings to audio-video recording. In addition to the effectiveness of such a means, the saving of procedural time of the preliminary investigation and the court should be taken into account. As for the issue of informativeness and preservation of information for the future, the advantages in such a form are obvious. Behind the antipattern there is always a place for a pattern, which, due to reasonable patterns, will be able to provide the state policy in the field of criminal prosecution with effective forms of means of proof. Keywords: criminal procedure, criminal procedure, criminal procedural activity, forms of proof, anti-pattern.

Abstract:
The article analyzes the problematic aspects of proving the event of a criminal offense, particularly the documentation of key circumstances such as time, place, method, and other conditions of the offense. Special attention is paid to the interpretation of paragraph 10 of Article 236 of the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine, which establishes the mandatory recording of investigative actions using audio and video recording. The issue of «continuous recording», highlighted by scholars and contributing to inconsistent court rulings, is explored. Examples from judicial practice are considered, demonstrating the consequences of failing to comply with the requirements for documenting searches. The impact of such violations an the admissibility of evidence in criminal proceeding and the protection of participants’ rights is analyzed. Special attention is given to the problems of video recording interruptions, which may serve as grounds for declaring evidence inadmissible and significantly affect the investigation results. The need for improvement in legislative norms regulating the procedure for documenting search is highlighted, in order to enhance their legal clarity and ensure the protection of participants’ rights in criminal proceedings. The article is dedicated to substantiating the urgency of conducting a search as a procedural action in criminal proceedings. It emphasizes the need for authorized. It emphasize the need for authorized person to clearly ascertain the reasons justifying the urgency of entering a dwelling or other property. The legal grounds for conducting urgent searches are analyzed, with an emphasis on the fact that urgency must be based on clear legislative principles, specifically concerning property or life, rather than general purposes of evidence collection. Special attention is given to the erroneous identification of “securing property” with the discovery and seizure of evidence, which creates risks of abuse of this procedural tool. The article emphasizes the need for improving the legal regulation and its interpretation to ensure proper procedural order in conducting investigative (search) actions, which will contribute to a full and objective determination of the circumstances of the criminal offense. It is concluded that the search remains one of the key means of establishing the circumstances of a criminal offense; however, its effectiveness depends on the correct interpretation and application of legal norms. Ways to improve legal regulation are suggested to ensure a balance between the effectiveness of investigations and the protection of the rights and freedoms of citizens.

Abstract:
Background: Cardiogenic shock with acute hemodynamic decompensation may be one of the most serious risks in patients affected by ventricular tachycardia (VT). Its proper identification may have important implications in terms of pharmacological management, as might procedural planning in case of patients undergoing catheter ablation. Methods: We describe a case series of patients with provisional strategies for circulatory support in VT ablation, including the use of venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) and vascular accesses in the electrophysiology lab but no initial ECMO activation due to an estimated intermediate pre-procedural risk from the case-series population. Results: In total, 10 patients (mean age 70 ± 11 years old, 9 males) with severe cardiomyopathy were admitted for incessant ventricular arrhythmia episodes, further diagnosis, and therapy planning; 1/10 patients (10%), documenting a PAINESD score of 14, underwent VA-ECMO cannulation due to electromechanical dissociation. All 10 patients were discharged alive. Conclusions: A pre-defined strategy before VT ablation is crucial. In our case series, the use of provisional circulatory support with VA-ECMO during incessant ablation of ventricular arrhythmia was a safe and winning alternative to upfront strategies.

Abstract:
Abstract Objective: Monitoring the supervision of residents can be a challenging task. We describe our experience with the implementation of a templated note system for documenting procedures with the aim of enabling automated, discrete, and standardized capture of documentation of supervision of residents performing floor-based procedures, with minimal extra effort from the residents. Materials and methods: Procedural note templates were designed using the standard existing template within a commercial electronic health record software. Templates for common procedures were created such that residents could document every procedure performed outside of the formal procedural areas. Automated reports were generated and letters were sent to noncompliers. Results: A total of 27 045 inpatient non–formal procedural area procedures were recorded from August 2012 to June 2014. Compliance with NoteWriter template usage averaged 86% in the first year and increased to 94.6% in the second year (P = .0055). Initially, only 12.5% of residents documented supervision of any form. By the end of the first year, this was above 80%, with the gains maintained into the second year and beyond. Direct supervision was documented to have occurred where required in 62.8% in the first year and increased to 99.8% in the second year (P = .0001) after the addition of hard stops. Notification of attendings prior to procedures was documented 100% of the time by September 2013. Letters sent to errant residents decreased from 3.6 to 0.83 per 100 residents per week. Conclusion: The templated procedure note system with hard stops and integrated reporting can successfully be used to improve monitoring of resident supervision. This has potential impact on resident education and patient safety.

Abstract:
In this article, Michele Moses and Lauren Saenz explore a growing trend in education policymaking — the ballot initiative. Specifically, the authors question whether information presented to voters is sufficiently substantive to permit educated decisionmaking about influential policies. Their study, a content analysis of print news media related to the 2006 Michigan Civil Rights Initiative, shows that coverage of this initiative was largely superficial, documenting procedural or topical matters rather than addressing the deeper moral, practical, and historical issues involved. These results, they argue, highlight the important role that mass media should play in a direct democracy, currently an overlooked responsibility. Moses and Saenz end with an appeal to education researchers to monitor the media coverage of education policy debates and, upon finding insubstantial coverage, to present an alternative that is meaningful and accessible to the general public.

Abstract:
The article deals with the actual law enforcement problems associated with violations of legal norms by the bodies engaged in operational-investigative activities in the course of conducting and documenting operational-investigative activities «inspection of premises, buildings, structures, areas and vehicles». The analysis of norms of the Federal law of 12.08.1995 No. 144-FZ «About operational search activities», the criminal procedure code of the Russian Federation, departmental normative acts, decisions of the European Court of human rights and the constitutional Court of the Russian Federation, Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation, and also the practice of prosecutorial supervision over implementation of laws in the implementation of operative-search activities, identified various approaches to the assessment of the legality of the survey of housing in the framework of the operational-search measures «inspection of premises, buildings, structures, areas and vehicles». On the basis of the obtained data, the problems were identified and some prospects for the development of the operational search activities were identified. The authors in this paper propose possible solutions to the identified law enforcement problems and measures to further develop the possibility of using the information obtained during the operational-search activities «inspection of premises, buildings, structures, areas and vehicles» for the formation of criminal procedural evidence in criminal cases. The authors state their position on the basis of the analysis of the current operational-investigative, criminal-procedural legislation and prosecutorial-Supervisory practice. The methodological basis of the study was made by General scientific and special methods of knowledge of law enforcement problems of conducting and documenting operational search activities «inspection of premises, buildings, structures, areas and vehicles», including the method of system-structural analysis, synthesis method, analysis method, comparative legal method, formal logical method, statistical method. As a result of the study revealed that the information obtained in the course of operational-search activities «inspection of premises, buildings, structures, areas of terrain and vehicles», can be the basis for the formation of criminal procedural evidence in criminal cases only in compliance with the legal norms of the bodies engaged in operational-search activities during the production and documentation of the operational-search activities. At the same time, the admissibility of evidence formed on the basis of the results of operational investigative activities presented in criminal proceedings is made dependent on the implementation of certain legal norms in the production of the operational investigative measures under consideration. In the legal literature, innovations in the legislation of Russia related to various aspects of conducting and documenting operational search activities «inspection of premises, buildings, structures, areas and vehicles» traditionally cause a lively discussion. However, up to the present time in science and did not have a consensus on the concept and essence of the considered operational search activities. Analysis of the practice of prosecutorial supervision over the execution of laws in the implementation of operational-search activity indicates different approaches to assessing the legality of the operational-search activities. Thus violations of the legislation in practice of the bodies performing quickly-search activity during carrying out quickly-search action «inspection of rooms, buildings, constructions, sites of the district and vehicles» is very difficult task. First of all, due to the high requirements of operational-search and criminal procedure legislation, the results of operational-search activity, to the process of proof in General, and to certain types of evidence that are formed in criminal proceedings on the basis of the results of operational-search activity.

Abstract:
The article examines legal, organizational aspects of documenting administrative offenses for violating the rules of quarantine of people. The decisions of the courts of Ukraine are studied, in which the evidence is examined from different angles, the question of their belonging, admissibility and sufficiency is studied. Based on the analysis of law enforcement practice of judicial bodies, the generalization of fundamental legal positions of courts aimed at observance of the principles of the rule of law and observance of human rights and freedoms has been carried out. Conclusions are made about the peculiarities of the use of sources of evidence when documenting violations of human quarantine rules. It is proposed to supplement the Code of Ukraine on Administrative Offenses with a number of articles that would contain procedural norms aimed at regulating the procedure and rules for collecting evidence on violations of human quarantine rules. Approval of the legality of the actions of authorized officials who have been authorized by the state to draw up reports on administrative offenses and to bring persons to administrative responsibility under Art. 443 CUAO it is necessary to supplement CUAO with articles of Art. 2511 CUAO “Belonging of evidences”, Art. 2512 of the Code of Administrative Offenses “Admissibility of evidence”, Art. 2513 CUAO “Reliability of evidences”, Art. 2514 of the Code of Administrative Offenses “Sufficiency of evidence”, Art. 2515 CUAO “Obligation of evidence”. Art. 2516 CUAO “Collection of evidence”. These additions to the Code of Administrative Offenses will allow to a theory of evidence in cases of administrative offenses. Keywords: documentation, administrative offense, violation of human quarantine rules, affiliation, admissibility, sufficiency, reliability of evidence, collection of evidence.

Abstract:
The paper explores the simultaneous application of two types of covert investigative (detective) actions — control over the commission of a crime and execution of a special task to uncover the criminal activities of an organized group or a criminal organization. These instruments are key to combating organized crime, enabling the documentation of both executors and organizers. Their combined use is especially relevant in the context of the growing threat posed by organized criminal groups (OCGs) to public order, economic security, and public trust in law enforcement. The purpose of the paper is to clarify the legal and practical features of using these covert actions together in criminal proceedings related to organized crime. The study also aims to develop recommendations for their effective implementation in line with procedural guarantees and standards set by the European Court of Human Rights. The paper analyzes Ukrainian legislation (Criminal Procedure Code and Criminal Code), as well as judicial practice and doctrinal positions regarding the legal status of individuals involved in such actions — whether law enforcement officers, confidential informants, or members of OCGs cooperating with investigative authorities. International experience (USA, Germany, Switzerland) and ECtHR case law are also discussed. The study identifies the lack of clear procedural algorithms for combining these instruments and emphasizes the risks of provocation and inadmissibility of evidence in the absence of proper documentation. The simultaneous use of control over the commission of a crime and the execution of a special task is a highly effective mechanism for documenting systemic criminal activity. However, this requires procedural rigor, legal clarity on the roles and responsibilities of involved persons, and protection of their rights. Properly regulated, these tools strengthen state capacity to counter organized crime and ensure the rule of law.

Abstract:
Each incident (crime or accident) leads to the creation of traces at the scene of the incident. The place is changed, and the image of these changes has great information potential. Generally speaking, the inspection of the scene of the incident is an activity aimed at disclosing, recording and securing this information. This is an activity that is complex in many respects and unique, which should be emphasized. Ergo, documenting it is crucial. Documentation of the inspection requires the form of a protocol. It is a basic document for maintaining procedural forms and making specific arrangements. The course of the crime scene investigation may also be recorded using an image or sound recording device. The cognitive value of both types of documentation is definitely different. Technical documentation has a greater cognitive potential and from the point of view of further activities, its importance is crucial, especially in the case of incident sites with a complicated factual state, extensive sites or located in hard-to-reach areas. In the study, the authors ask whether the basic form of documenting inspections fits into the realities of today’s times. Forms of communication evolve; in digital reality, the dimension and role of the written word are different. Considerations were made regarding the concept of a solution that would enable comprehensive, so to speak, documentation of crime scene investigation. It was taken into account that this is an evidentiary act, the performance of which, as well as its recording, cannot violate the rules of criminal procedure.

Abstract:
Documented oral texts in Uto-Aztecan languages of northern Mexico are scarce in comparison with oral texts in languages from central and southern Mexico. This unavailability of oral texts indicates that documenting these languages is a high priority. This is the case for the Tarahumara/Rarámuri language. The oral text presented here is not the first text in Tarahumara or Rarámuri published in Tlalocan. However, it does represent the first instance in a series of oral texts collected recently, and more importantly, documented by using current methodologies implemented in a documentation project. This contribution to Tlalocan serves as a different written register from narratives in Rarámuri. The text ‘Échi napíwili napisó kítila newáami’ is a sample of a procedural discourse as shown when telling a recipe. This procedure tells us about a cultural practice that used to be more common among Rarámuri people: how to prepare hominy (nixtamal) by using pine ashes. Rarámuri people consider this practice as common among the ki’yawáli ‘the ancestors’ and the ochélame ‘the elders’.

Abstract:
AbstractConsistent and objective evaluation of the paralyzed face is imperative for documenting preoperative findings and assessing postoperative outcomes of reanimation techniques. Static and dynamic facial asymmetry are the key features of the paralyzed face. To date, there is no consensus among surgeons on how best to document facial asymmetry. The authors propose a Facial Asymmetry Index (FAI) as an objective measure of facial asymmetry and validate its use and reliability across numerous reanimation techniques. Frontal photographs of patients with unilateral facial nerve paralysis were analyzed. The length from the medial canthus to the ipsilateral oral commissure was compared between affected and nonaffected sides. The FAI is the difference between the two values, with a higher value reflecting poorer facial symmetry. Validation and reliability testing was then performed. There was a consistent decrease in the FAI with procedural intervention (FAI pre = 10.1, FAI post = 3.17; p < 0.0001). Furthermore, there was excellent inter- and intrarater reliability among independent judges. The FAI is a powerful and accessible tool to quantify operative outcomes for many lower facial nerve reanimation techniques.

Abstract:
The scientific article is devoted to the study of criminal offenses against peace, human security and international order, committed under martial law. It was emphasized that such illegal acts, in particular genocide and ecocide, occupy the highest level among illegal acts for which international criminal responsibility is provided. It is noted that the increase in the number of crimes against peace, human security and international order in conditions of sustainable development can lead to negative consequences and a threat to the biological foundations of life on Earth. Arguments are given that counteraction to such criminal manifestations should have appropriate legal regulation, which would correspond to the degree of social danger of illegal actions and the degree of severity of consequences. A conclusion was made on the importance of developing a methodology for documenting and investigating crimes of this category and proper technical forensic and tactical provision of separate procedural procedures for the purpose of identifying, recording, removing and investigating traces of illegal actions. The importance of using the form of data collection through open sources and their processing – Open-Source Intelligence – is indicated.

Abstract:
The Clinical Establishments Act (CEA) of 2010 represents India's landmark attempt to standardize healthcare regulation nationwide, yet its implementation has been characterized by significant disparities and systemic challenges. This policy analysis examines eight critical gaps in the CEA's design and implementation, documenting both structural limitations and procedural shortcomings that have hindered its effectiveness. Using an implementation science framework, we analyze how federalism challenges, enforcement limitations, rural provider burdens, absent patient protection mechanisms, and digital integration failures collectively undermine the Act's potential. Our findings reveal that while the CEA provides an important regulatory foundation, its impact is seriously hampered by patchy adoption, weak enforcement mechanisms, disproportionate burdens on smaller providers, and failure to address key dimensions of healthcare quality and access. We propose targeted reforms including tiered standards for different facility types, integrated digital compliance mechanisms, mandatory patient grievance systems, price transparency requirements, and harmonization of overlapping regulations. This analysis provides essential context for understanding regional implementation variations and developing more effective, equitable approaches to healthcare regulation in India's diverse healthcare landscape.

Abstract:
Purpose: The theoretical aim of this study was to present the impact of modern technologies on the improvement of the effectiveness of process activ- ities (documenting) at the site of a communication disaster. On the other hand, the utilitarian goal was to present the improvement of the organization of documenting a mass incident with the use of drones and photogrammetry tools. Design and methods: As part of the exercise consisting of a simulation of a communication disaster, the activities were documented using the func - tionality of unmanned aerial vehicles which interact with an IT system (Pix4D application). The characteristic drone models which can be used in the monitoring of a disaster site were presented. The discussed research approach describes the methods used to perform drone flights and to what extent the photogrammetric method of processing digital images obtained from drones was used. The issue of field measurements (control points, control lines), the purpose of which was to determine the accuracy of mapping and matching to the coordinate system, was discussed. Results: As part of the research, images were captured and taken with the use of UAVs and IT systems, which were collated and compared with the results of measurements from the visual inspection of the disaster site, performed in a traditional manner by the representatives of the procedural entity. A comparative analysis of the collected research material leading to a comparison of the work results captured by means of the traditional procedural forms with the methods and techniques of modern technologies (drone with the Pix4D Cloud application) allows for the following conclusions to be drawn. For short measuring sections (up to 15 meters), the measurement accuracy of the two methods differs by about 1.5%. For longer measuring sections (up to 100 m), the measurement error is approx. 2.3%. Conclusions: In case of the UAV method and the application Pix4D Cloud, the sources of measurement errors should be seen in the accuracy of rendering of the details of the model (the quality of imaging) and the ability to use this application. On the other hand, when using the police method, in which the measurement trolley is the measuring tool, the sources of error should be seen in the uneven terrain, the obstacles in the terrain, and the measurement error of the tool itself (the trolley). The innovation of the project to use UAVs certainly gains importance especially in a terrain with limited accessibility, i.e. in hilly and mountainous terrain, at road intersections or forks.

Abstract:
The article proposes to improve the classification of methods of gathering evidence (formation of the evidence base of the legal position of a particular subject of evidence) into: (1) methods used by subjects conducting criminal proceedings and (2) methods used by subjects protect their or their interests in criminal proceedings. The essence of certain methods of gathering evidence (formation of the evidence base of the legal position of a particular subject of evidence), in particular, such as: demand and receipt, initiation of investigative (search) actions, as well as other actions by the defense proceedings are underway that are able to ensure the submission of appropriate and admissible evidence to the court. Peculiarities of term use in relation to the named methods in accordance with the current CPC of Ukraine are considered; analyzed issues concerning the objects of demand and receipt, possible both procedural and non-procedural actions that can ensure the submission to the court of appropriate and admissible evidence. Critical remarks were made regarding the procedure of normative regulation and use of one or another method, as well as in general about the expediency of allocating such a method as initiating investigative (search) actions. Regarding the latter, the opinion expressed in the scientific literature that such “initiation of investigative (investigative) actions” should be considered not as a way of gathering evidence by the defense, but as one of the opportunities for the defense to participate in evidence by the prosecution. Particular attention is paid to the peculiarities of documenting the use of all considered methods of gathering evidence (formation of the evidence base of the legal position of a particular subject of evidence).

Abstract:
The article is dedicated to formulating tactical and organizational forensic recommendations for conducting inspection of objects in criminal proceedings. The author examines the essence of inspection as a procedural action and suggests defining the inspection of objects as an overt investigative (search) action, which involves the direct purposeful perception by an authorized person of the characteristics of a specific material object with the aim of obtaining or verifying information relevant to criminal proceedings. The structure of object inspection comprises traditional preparatory, working, and final stages. Among the preparatory actions, the author lists familiarization with other materials of the criminal proceedings, defining the scope of the inspection, selecting the time and place for its conduct, determining the participants involved, and preparing necessary scientific and technical tools. At the general stage of the working phase of such an inspection, it is proposed to establish, describe, and document the general characteristics of the examined objects: their appearance, material, overall dimensional characteristics, weight, type, and designation, etc. At the detailed stage of the working phase, it is recommended to establish, describe, and document specific, individualizing characteristics of the inspected objects: dimensional characteristics, shape, material, color of each separate element; markings, inscriptions, and labeling; defects, damages, and overlay traces, etc. It is specified that at the final stage of the inspection of objects, the process and results are recorded, and the inspected items are packaged. It is emphasized that the main form of documenting such procedural action is protocol drafting. Information to be included in the introductory, descriptive, and final parts of the protocol is provided. Standard annexes to the protocol include a printed photo table, computer data carriers with digital photographs and video recordings taken during the inspection.

Abstract:
The article reveals the features of the notary's performance of the function of providing evidence in a criminal proceeding based on a comparative analysis of the proposed changes to the notary legislation in Ukraine and the provisions of the Criminal Code of the State of Arizona (USA). It was concluded that the notarial act of “providing evidence”, which the Ukrainian legislator proposes to add to the list of notarial acts, consists in certifying by the notary of the data (information) provided, which can be carried out in various ways (by documenting, inspecting certain objects, video- and audio recording, etc.). Thus, the provision of evidence as a notarial act has signs of novelty both in terms of content (as it consists in the attestation of information by a notary) and in the way of performing the relevant notarial procedure (by inspecting certain objects, making video and audio recordings, etc.). In US legislation, we see a different approach of the legislator. In particular, it is possible to single out the following features of establishing the function of a notary public to provide evidence in criminal proceedings under the criminal law of the state of Arizona: А) The status of an affidavit certified by a notary public or another competent person as a document that is evidence in criminal proceedings is defined directly in the criminal law regulations. B) In certain cases provided for by law, the statement of facts related to criminal proceedings must be made by drawing up a document certified by a notary public or another competent person. C) The criminal law regulations define the procedural consequences of drawing up a document that is used as evidence in criminal proceedings.
 In comparing the approaches of the legislator of Ukraine and the USA to enshrining in the legislation the notary's powers to perform the function of providing evidence, it is worth paying attention to the following aspects. The proposed changes to the legislation of Ukraine on the notarial office relate exclusively to special norms regarding the performance of notarial acts and consist in granting the notary the right to perform an additional type of notarial certification of facts, namely, the fact that a person has provided certain information. At the same time, such changes are not ensured by corresponding changes in procedural and material norms of criminal, civil, economic legislation, etc. In the USA, on the other hand, the legislator focuses on the function of the notary in providing evidence by providing for the special legal status of the notarial document and its probative value directly in the criminal law regulations (which often also regulate issues of a procedural nature). At the same time, the procedure for performing notarial acts does not change.
 It was concluded that the approach provided for in the legislation of the United States of America is effective to consolidate the function of the notary in providing evidence, which is built with the help of the following basic legal structures: 1) provision in the criminal law and procedural norms of the special status of the notarial document; 2) determination of the notarial form of some procedural documents; 3) specification of the procedural consequences that arise for participants in criminal proceedings in case of drawing up/submitting or not submitting the corresponding document in notarized form; 4) provision in the criminal law regulations, which provide for criminal liability for giving false testimony, cases of giving false or contradictory testimony precisely when drawing up a notarial document, which is a document-evidence in a certain case. It was determined that the effective performance of this function by a notary of Ukraine should be ensured by the relevant provisions of special procedural and other legislation, in particular: a) changes to procedural norms (criminal procedural legislation, civil procedural legislation, etc.) regarding the possibility of securing evidence by a notary, as well as determining the legal status , the probative value of a notarial document (deed on provision of evidence, etc.) and the procedure for its use in the relevant court process or other proceedings; b) amendments to the Criminal Code of Ukraine regarding the establishment of criminal liability for providing false testimony or providing false information (data) to a notary when he performs the function of providing evidence; c) provision of a notarial form for certain types of procedural documents submitted as evidence of the presence/absence of certain circumstances, facts, etc. in the relevant categories of court cases and other proceedings.

Abstract:
In power systems, the programmable numerical differential relays are widely used for the protection of generators, bus bars, transformers, shunt reactors, and transmission lines. Retrofitting of relays is the need of the hour because lack of proper testing techniques and misunderstanding of vital procedures may result in under performance of the overall protection system. Lack of relay’s proper testing provokes an unpredictability in its behavior, that may prompt tripping of a healthy power system. Therefore, the main contribution of the paper is to prepare a step-by-step comprehensive procedural guideline for practical implementation of relay testing procedures and a detailed insight analysis of relay’s settings for the protection of an Extra High Voltage (EHV) auto transformer. The experimental results are scrutinized to document a detailed theoretical and technical analysis. Moreover, the paper also covers shortcomings of existing literature by documenting specialized literature that covers all aspects of protection relays, i.e., from basics of electromechanical domain to the technicalities of the numerical differential relay covering its detailed testing from different reputed manufacturers. A secondary injection relay test set is used for detailed testing of differential relay under test, and the S1 Agile software is used for protection relay settings, configuration modification, and detailed analysis.

Abstract:
The purpose of the study is to adapt the requirements of the international standard ISO/IEC 17025: 2017 “General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories”, defining the functions and responsibilities of laboratory personnel, to the domestic forensic expert activity. The following requirements for personnel are addressed in the article: impartiality, competence, manageability, and performance of operations according to the laboratory’s management system. International standards and comments to them, foreign forensic practice, publications on domestic forensic expert science, and procedural codes of the Russian Federation have been analyzed. The article points out that in forensic organizations, the entire staff divides into two groups: those who perform forensic examinations (research) and those who ensure the functioning of the forensic organizations. Achieving objectivity in laboratory activities during research or testing is strictly applicable and is regulated by documenting the research/ test, validating research/test methods, training and admitting personnel, and maintaining equipment. The combination of these procedures ensures the objectivity of a study. It is shown that the standard extends its provisions to all accredited organizations under the uniform rules, which goes along with the ethical standards of the forensic expert institutions of the Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation, other departments, as well as commercial organizations.

Abstract:
The documentation and visualization of ephemeral CH, especially for World’s Fairs architecture, remains a neglected endeavor on the global scale. While digital products like 3D models find extensive application in CH, the use of a WebGIS has scarcely been explored in this domain. When a WebGIS is used for CH, it serves to communicate the output of research, not as a tool to support the development of the research itself. Moreover, aspects like procedural development for the creation of a WebGIS platform, its upgrading, and its long-term preservation are key factors for the maintenance of the digital tool, but they have scarcely been considered in the literature. Through the Turin 1911 project, this paper defines a procedure for the creation of a WebGIS for ephemeral architectural documentation, showing how a WebGIS platform can be designed, implemented, tested, and maintained. The novelty of this study lies in the creation of a 2D/3D WebGIS based on a tailored spatial database; the WebGIS is coupled with a dedicated website for the constant updating of the research data documenting the Turin 1911 International Exposition. The discussion emphasizes the transformative role of a WebGIS in not only sharing information but also serving as a dynamic platform for conducting digital humanities studies in 3D environments.

Abstract:
Abstract Background Emergency medicine (EM) residents are required to report procedural competency, often in a database separate from the electronic health record (EHR), in a redundant and time-consuming manner. We hypothesize that, if documented in an appropriate manner, procedural reports generated from an EHR reliably exceed those required by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) as well as those self-reported by EM residents. Objectives (1) To compare the number of medical resuscitations recorded in the EHR to the number documented by residents in a separate database. (2) To compare the number of medical resuscitations recorded in the EHR to the ACGME requirement for graduation. Methods Self-reported numbers of adult medical resuscitation by each resident of the previous three graduating classes of one EM program were compared with those generated from the EHR (Epic Systems, Verona, Wisconsin). There is no discrete documentation of medical resuscitations in the EHR. The ACGME describes a resuscitation as “…patient care for which prolonged physician attention is needed,” and thus, a surrogate was determined to be any patient for which the attending physician documented critical care time. Results Data generated from the EHR reliably exceeded reported (mean [M] = 165.78, standard deviation [SD] = 45.97) and required (M = 188.09, SD = 30.93) numbers for adult medical resuscitations for 100% of the residents of the past three graduating classes (n = 32). Conclusion In an accredited EM residency program that utilizes a modern EHR with a validated reporting functionality, residents should not need to redundantly log the number of adult medical resuscitations performed. Each resident in this study performed significantly more adult medical resuscitations than they logged and more than required by the ACGME, and thus, the time spent documenting these in a separate database was superfluous. Furthermore, this process increases resident awareness of proper documentation and data stewardship, two skills certain to prevail throughout their careers as modern EM physicians.

Abstract:
The rapid expansion of information technology in recent decades has deeply influenced various societal domains, including the legal landscape. This impact is particularly notable in substantive criminal law, where new phenomena have emerged, and in criminal procedural law, where innovative tools have been introduced to facilitate the gathering of essential information for fair and efficient legal processes. Among these tools, modern recording technologies, encompassing visual, audio, or audiovisual formats, have gained prominence for their role in documenting events and serving as evidence in criminal proceedings. Governed by legal frameworks such as Article 10(21) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, these recordings are classified as information and technical means when meeting specified criteria, primarily serving as crucial evidence sources capturing sound, images, or their combination. However, challenges arise when parties involved in criminal proceedings independently procure such recordings, aiming to present them to law enforcement or the court discreetly and confidentially. This necessitates a clear differentiation between recordings obtained within the procedural framework, regulated by Article 114 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, and those obtained externally. Establishing such distinctions is pivotal for upholding the integrity and legality of evidence presented in criminal proceedings, ensuring fairness and transparency in the pursuit of justice. In this paper we will analyze the concepts of inadmissibility and legality of evidence in the context of criminal proceedings. The aim is to highlight their interrelation and to distinguish their key aspects. The focus will be on the issue of private recordings as evidence. We will analyse the conditions under which a private recording can be used as evidence in criminal proceedings. We will take into account the relevant case law of the courts and the European Court of Human Rights. This paper comprehensively analyses the issue of admissibility and legality of evidence in criminal proceedings, with particular emphasis on private recordings as evidence. The paper should provide a comprehensive overview of the issue and help in solving practical questions that arise in this context.

Abstract:
The article studies the organization of forensic examinations and expert research on economic issues. The objective of the article is to study the peculiarities of the organization of forensic examinations and expert research on economic issues, including practical activities of Kirovohrad State Research Forensic Centre of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine. The study was conducted on the basis of the systematic approach using methods of analysis, generalization, grouping and comparison. The method of graphical representation was used for better perception of information about the organization of forensic examinations and expert research on economic issues. It was found that forensic examination and expert research on economic issues is appointed on general grounds in compliance with the Law of Ukraine "On Forensic Examination", Instruction on appointment and conduct of forensic examinations and expert research and Scientific and methodological recommendations on preparation and appointment of forensic examinations and expert research and procedural law. Forensic economic examination includes: examination of accounting documents, tax accounting and reporting; examination of documents on economic activity of enterprises and organizations; examination of documents of financial and credit transactions. Judicial expertise and expert research on economic issues are subordinated to the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine and expert services of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine, the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, the Security Service of Ukraine and the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine. In general, the procedure for the appointment and conduct of forensic examinations and expert research on economic issues, as well as the rights, duties and responsibilities of forensic experts in procedural law are similar. It is established that the basis for the forensic examination is the relevant court decision or the decision of the pre-trial investigation body, or a contract with an expert or expert institution if the examination is conducted at the request of others. It is determined that in Ukraine, in accordance with the procedural legislation of Ukraine, experts perform primary, additional, repeated, commission and complex examinations, and expert examinations are performed in the manner prescribed for examinations. The peculiarities of the organization of complex and commission forensic economic examination are generalized. Prospects for further research are seen in the analysis of the existing procedure for documenting the results of examinations and expert studies, features of the choice of research methods and methods of forensic economic examinations, as well as in improving regulations and normative documents on the organization of forensic examinations and expert research on economic issues.

Abstract:
The scientific article is devoted to the study of ways to increase the efficiency of criminal prosecution. It is determined that the study of ways to increase the efficiency of criminal prosecution is necessary to improve the effectiveness of criminal prosecution bodies and achieve the optimal level of ensuring human rights and freedoms in the course of criminal proceedings. It is noted that the introduction of alternative subjects of criminal prosecution would create competition in the activities of prosecutors and, accordingly, would have a positive impact on the efficiency of criminal prosecution. It is stated that the deformation of legal relations between subjects of criminal prosecution can be manifested in the application of a generally permissive type of legal regulation in the activities of criminal prosecution bodies. At the same time, in situations of possible restrictions on human rights and freedoms, excessive formalism in the activities of criminal prosecution bodies should prevail. It is emphasized that granting victims of a criminal offense a procedural status that is close to the status of a witness should increase the effectiveness of criminal prosecution, since granting the victim active rights, in some cases, can significantly complicate criminal prosecution. It is noted that the prosecutor’s performance of the functions of an investigating judge under martial law should be limited in time. It is proposed to introduce automatic judicial control over decisions made by the prosecutor in the role of an investigating judge. It is proven that excessive formalism in documenting procedural actions during criminal prosecution does not contribute to increasing the effectiveness of the latter. It is considered that simplifying the documentation of criminal prosecution can be manifested in the use of audio and video recording of procedural actions without further paper registration. It is investigated that the legal provisions set forth in Part 2 of Art. 9, Part 2, 3 of Art. 285 of the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine, which impose certain obligations on the prosecution, such as those that contradict the interests of criminal prosecution bodies and their functions. It is concluded that the introduction of certain areas of specialization for subjects of criminal prosecution increases the effectiveness of the investigation as a whole, contributes to the development of effective algorithms (plans) for the investigation of criminal offenses. It is noted that the standards of speed and thoroughness of pre-trial investigation should be implemented along with compliance with the principle of reasonableness of deadlines and be provided with judicial control.

ABSTRACT Background Residents may learn how to perform advance care planning (ACP) through informal curriculum. Task-based instructional designs and recent international consensus statements for ACP provide opportunities to explicitly train residents, but residents' needs are poorly understood. Objective We assessed residents' training needs in ACP at the Geneva University Hospitals in Geneva, Switzerland. Methods Qualitative data were collected and analyzed iteratively between December 2017 and September 2019. Transcripts were coded using both a deductive content analysis based on the 4-Component Instructional Design (4C/ID) model and an inductive thematic analysis. Results Out of 55 individuals contacted by email, 49 (89%) participated in 7 focus groups and 10 individual interviews, including 19 residents, 18 fellows and attending physicians, 4 nurses, 1 psychologist, 1 medical ethics consultant, 3 researchers, and 3 patients. Participants identified 3 tasks expected of residents (preparing, discussing, and documenting ACP) and discussed why training residents in ACP is complex. Participants described knowledge (eg, prognosis), skills (eg, clinical and ethical reasoning), and attitudes (eg, reflexivity) that residents need to become competent in ACP and identified needs for future training. In terms of the 4C/ID, these needs revolved around: (1) learning tasks (eg, workplace practice, simulated scenarios); (2) supportive information (eg, videotaped worked examples, cognitive feedback); (3) procedural information (eg, ACP pocket-sized information sheet, corrective feedback); and (4) part-task practice (eg, rehearsal of communication skills, simulation). Conclusions This study provides a comprehensive description of tasks and competencies to train residents in ACP.

Abstract:
Introduction: Organizations including CAEP, CEUS, the International Federation for Emergency Medicine (IFEM) and the Canadian Association of Radiologists have all called for defined competency assessments for point of care ultrasound (PoCUS). Definitions of core indications vary. The requirement for ongoing assessment of performance and skills maintenance is often overlooked. We describe the introduction an IFEM approved Assessment of Practice (AP) tool across a PoCUS training program and for continued assessment. Methods: We completed a cross sectional survey and cohort study including the entire body of emergency medicine physicians at a tertiary hospital. Over a 3 year period, all practitioners were assessed for CAEP position statement defined core applications at baseline and again after 2 years using a published PoCUS AP tool. We describe the tool, its application and the performance assessment findings. Emergency physicians (EP) underwent AP following formal training including an approved course and a logbook documenting a variable number of scans. Results: 23 EPs completed training and underwent AP initially, with all 23 EPs completing further assessment within 3 years. Assessment of practice was completed for 1. Focused Diagnostic Ultrasound Assessment for AAA, eFAST, cardiac, early pregnancy; and 2. Focused Procedural Ultrasound Guidance for venous catheterization. All EPs demonstrated initial and continuing competency in these PoCUS modalities. Conclusion: The IFEM PoCUS curriculum promotes ongoing local assessment of performance. We successfully implemented this competency based approach and demonstrated feasibility, flexibility and utility in a Canadian emergency medicine program.

Abstract:
Abstract Background The effectiveness of colonoscopy screening to prevent colorectal cancer (CRC) is directly linked to its procedural quality. An independent observer (Hawthorne effect) can improve colonoscopy procedural quality metrics, including adenoma detection rate (ADR). However, the results of studies are limited or controversial. Purpose We aimed to evaluate the colonoscopy quality metrics in a group of patients undergoing screening or diagnostic colonoscopies under stringent observer conditions. Method In a single-center, case–control study, consecutive patients undergoing routine screening or diagnostic colonoscopy were prospectively enrolled. In the case group, all procedural steps and quality metrics were observed and documented, and the procedure was video recorded by an independent research assistant. In the control group, colonoscopies were performed without independent observation. Colonoscopy quality metrics such as polyp, adenoma, serrated lesions, and advanced adenoma detection rates (PDR, ADR, SLDR, AADR), the mean number of adenomas detected per patient (MAP), and the mean number of adenomas and serrated lesions detected per patient (MASP) were compared. The probabilities of increased quality metrics were evaluated through regression analyses weighted by the inversed probability of observation during the procedure. Result(s) We included a total of 687 patients (327 cases and 360 controls) in the final analyses. The case group had significantly higher PDRs (62.4% vs. 53.1%) and ADRs (39.4% vs. 28.3%) compared with the control group. The SLDR was also higher in the case group than in the control group, but the difference was not significant (7.3% vs. 4.4%; P = 0.14). The AADR was not significantly increased. After adjusting for potential confounders, the ADR and SLDR were 50% (odds ratio [OR] 1.51; 95%CI 1.05–2.17) and more than twofold (OR 2.17; 95%CI 1.05–4.47) more likely to be higher in the case group than in the control group. The MAP and MASP were significantly increased in the case group compared with the control group (P < 0.001). The regression analyses for both metrics demonstrated the direct and significant association between the Hawthorne effect and elevated MAP/MASP. Conclusion(s) The presence of an independent observer documenting colonoscopy quality metrics and video recording the colonoscopy resulted in a significant increase in ADR and other quality metrics. The Hawthorne effect should be considered an alternative strategy to advanced devices to improve colonoscopy quality in routine practice.

Abstract:
Background: Large volume coils are an alternative to conventional coils for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms. However, there are no published reports documenting occlusion and complication rates in medium and large intracranial aneurysms. Therefore, we present our results in this subgroup of aneurysms. Methods: A single-center, retrospective analysis of consecutive patients treated with Penumbra coils 400 in aneurysms ≥7 mm was performed. Demographics, aneurysm features, procedural details, intraoperative complications, clinical outcomes, and occlusion rates were analyzed. Results: Thirty-three patients were included for analysis, and a total of 33 intracranial aneurysms were analyzed. Mean age was 57.6 years (SD ± 12.4) and 85% of the patients were women. Large aneurysms represented 46% of cases. Paraclinoid (55%) followed by posterior communicating (30.3%) aneurysms was the most frequently treated. Ruptured and saccular aneurysms were found in 49% and 63% of the cases, respectively. The mean aneurysmal dimensions were 14.2 mm width, 11.9 mm length, 5.4 mm neck, and 2.4 dome-to-neck ratio. A dome-neck ratio <2 was identified in 39% of cases. The mean number of coils per aneurysm was 4.8. Immediate modified Raymond–Roy Grades 1, 2, and 3A were achieved in 15%, 21%, and 64%, respectively. Twenty-six patients were evaluated at a mean follow-up period of 11 months, with an adequate occlusion of 92% and a good clinical outcome (modified Rankin score ≤2) in 96% of patients. Conclusion: Endovascular treatment with PC400 coils is an effective and safe option for medium and large intracranial aneurysms with high occlusion rates, few complications, and good clinical outcomes at follow-up.

Abstract:
Objectives: The aim of this study was to promote approaches to health technology assessment (HTA) that are both evidence-based and values-based. We conducted a systematic review of published studies describing formal methods to consider equity in the context of cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA).Methods: Candidate studies were identified through an unrestricted search of the Pub Med and EMBASE databases. The search closed on January 20, 2011. We identified additional studies by consulting experts and checking article bibliographies. Two authors independently reviewed each candidate study to determine inclusion and extracted data from studies retained for review. In addition to documenting methods, data extraction identified implicit and explicit notions of fairness. Data were synthesized in narrative form. Study quality was not assessed.Results: Of the 695 candidate articles, 51 were retained for review. We identified three broad methods to facilitate quantitative consideration of equity concerns in economic evaluation: integration of distributional concerns through equity weights and social welfare functions, exploration of the opportunity costs of alternative policy options through mathematical programming, and multi-criteria decision analysis.Conclusions: Several viable techniques to integrate equity concerns within CEA now exist, ranging from descriptive approaches to the quantitative methods studied in this review. Two obstacles at the normative level have impeded their use in decision making to date: the multiplicity of concepts and values discussed under the rubric of equity, and the lack of a widely accepted normative source on which to ground controversial value choices. Clarification of equity concepts and attention to procedural fairness may strengthen use of these techniques in HTA decision making.

Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine the impact of transformational leadership (TL) on organizational commitment (OC) with the mediating role of organizational justice (OJ) in the higher education (HE) sector in Syria. Design/methodology/approach The data were collected from 502 employees from six HE institutions. Two measures of organizational outcomes were selected for this study, namely, job satisfaction (JS) and OC. Using structural equation modelling (SEM), the authors tested four alternative models to indicate the relationship between leadership and organizational outcomes. Findings TL has both direct and indirect effects on OC through interactional justice (IJ). TL has an impact on JS through procedural justice (PJ) and IJ as intermediate variables, while transactional leadership (TrL) has an impact on JS through distributive justice (DJ). The three types of OJ have an impact on OC through JS. The authors found that the national culture may not influence the impact of the leader in the current globalization context, as the results were similar to the Western studies. Practical implications The findings of the study provide managers of the HE sector with insights into the formations of employees’ fairness perceptions, and with some guidelines for managing employees by documenting OJ to draw positive attitudinal and behavioral responses from employees. Originality/value While most previous research has focused on exploring the relationship between leadership and OJ or between OJ and JS in the business sector, the study, however, seeks in addition, to pinpoint the effect of OJ as a mediate variable between the leadership and JS and OC in HE.

Abstract:
Abstract Purpose Cervical transforaminal epidural steroid injections (CTFESIs) have become an increasingly utilised means of treating radicular pain over recent decades, although a number of reports have brought their safety into question. Much of this has been attributed to the use of particulate steroids and the theoretical risk of embolic complications with inadvertent intra-arterial injection. This study documents the complications encountered at our centre when performing CTFESI over a more than 10-year study period with predominant use of particulate steroid. Our procedural technique is also described. This study aims to highlight the importance of operator technique first and foremost and how, with safe and reproducible technique that confidently avoids intra-arterial injection, CTFESI can be performed safely irrespective of the choice of steroid. Methods All patients undergoing CTFESI between January 2008 and August 2018 at our centre were prospectively recruited to the study, documenting total number of injections/procedures per patient, presence of/description of complications and severity and type of steroid administered. Results Five hundred and twenty-seven patients underwent 1047 procedures (1753 individual cervical levels injected) over the study period: 1011 procedures performed with particulate steroid (triamcinolone acetonide) and 36 performed with non-particulate (dexamethasone). Only six complications were encountered, all spontaneously self-resolving without intervention and considered minor (grade 1). Conclusions With fastidious safe technique, CTFESI can be safe, efficacious and cost-effectively administered on an outpatient basis. Predominant use of particulate steroids did not lead to any significant complications. Graphic abstract These slides can be retrieved under Electronic Supplementary Material.

Abstract:
This research aims to do a theoretical study for recognizing the challenges related to archivingperforming arts at the Indonesian Institute of the Arts (ISI) Surakarta as an integral component of the development of the ISI Surakarta Arts Archive. Employing qualitative research methods with a literature review approach, it gathered information from various sources such as books, academic journals, and previous research. Data analysis is carried out by describing and interpreting the diverse viewpoints and procedural aspects. This research uncovers a fundamental challenge in archiving performing arts at ISI Surakarta due to their ephemeral nature—these arts exist solely during live performances, making preservation a complex task. Tracking the existence of performing arts relies on annotations, recordings, and documents that serve as historical records of these live events. The annotations, recordings, and documentsare derived from the artist's creative process, performance management, audience feedback, artcritics, and public reception. The results of the research state that the challenges faced in archiving performing arts at ISI Surakarta include (1) the need to enhance archivists' understanding of the genesis of performing arts to trace and compile performance-relatedannotations/recordings effectively; (2) the importance of cultivating archival literacy among artists to grasp better and acknowledge the significance of documenting the creative process of their artistic works throughout production and post-performance phases; and (3) the necessity of developing an interactive digital archive for performing arts to draw the artists, the public, and users an access right to contribute authentic and pertinent records, documents, and documentation associated with specific performing arts.

Abstract:
This article considers the significance of the moving image as an archival record and its implications for the ways in which memory interacts with history. As a defining technology of recording and documenting, film is entangled with history in its making: however, what kinds of narrative ensues from images whose contextual references are opaque to us? What can we garner from footage whose indexical connections have been lost? By focusing on the artistic practice of filmmakers Yervant Gianikian and Angela Ricci Lucchi, I suggest a reading of early-twentieth-century archival film footage, including found footage and home movies, in terms of affect. Gianikian and Ricci Lucchi's approach focuses on the procedural features of the frame and an excavation of the features that can be drawn from its defining connotations. Through an excavation of the most minute details within the frame, they point out the kind of ‘presence’ that film projects back to us as gesture, expression, and movement and abstract from them forgotten memories of everyday encounters and the affective forms that mundane actions took. In particular, I shall focus on works by Gianikian and Ricci Lucchi's that deal with encounters with ‘the other’ and the visual practices of representation that inform them. The legibility that Gianikian and Ricci Lucchi's approach brings to a reading of archival film footage is indicative for broader methodological considerations of the ways in which the moving image encodes affect and emotion. This is relevant for an understanding of what Lauren Berlant refers to as the ‘realm of the social’ by uncovering the structures of perception and representation of the past and the significance that they might take in the present.
