A Compendium is a scholarly publication that is a concise, yet comprehensive, evaluation of earlier work. This Article describes ways to efficiently create knowledge to be stored in Web-based Compendia. The amount and rate of Knowledge-Creation with presently-available Knowledge-Tools does not keep up with the Information-Expansion that occurs with expanded scientific and academic activity. Two issues contributing to this failure are inefficient Knowledge-Tools and insufficient numbers of human Knowledge-Compenders. WebPendeon Software will create and manage a WebSite to be used by a group of experts, in a highly-moderated special forum, to create new Knowledge by WebPending published literature about a Narrow-Topic, into an open-access online Compendium, in a MultiLevel Format. "WebPending" means Compiling, Compending, Combining, and Compacting prior literature. Repeated WebPending creates Knowledge in forms needed for easier training. The Open-Source Software described here will have considerable and immediate impact on Science and Medicine, with regard to: efficiency of Knowledge-Creation, and quality of Post-Graduate Education. The project has been designed so that it does not need continuous funding, and will make the future Web, by itself, a complete self-sustaining Knowledge-Repository that can be used more efficiently than the present Web. Open-Access WebPendeon-WebSites will be initiated and controlled by self-nominated Moderators (primarily those in Post-Graduate Education [Science and Medicine] ). Over time, a WebPendeon will dynamically change and be repeatedly peer-reviewed (post-publication). The WebPendeon/Compendium MetaData will automatically attribute Authorship of contributions and then create, save, and transmit a Chained Hash Number in the MetaData to authenticate authorship which will make plagiarism, should it occur, provable. When no longer active, the Compendium will ultimately be placed in a ActiveArchive in which the content is aging, but the MetaData is up-to-date about newer publications that have cited the ActiveArchive's content. Today's "passive" Archives can be transformed into more valuable ActiveArchives by means of the Open-Source MetaLink Software. Software for new MetaLinks will improve WebLinkages from/to each Compendium and WebPendeon. A MetaLink is a WebLink with considerable MetaData collected for Readers, conforming to the new MetaLink-Protocol, and will provide enhanced WebLinks that are available directly on a given WebSite. Unlike present "backlinks", all MetaLinks will be from Sentence-to-Sentence, even when forwards-in-time.

Tutors and graduate students are a force that can not be ignored in the scientific research team of colleges and universities. Understanding the construction of the ubiquitous influence of mentors on graduate students is of great significance to strengthen the ubiquitous influence among students, promote the interaction between teachers and students, and improve the quality of graduate education in colleges and universities. Based on 28 interview data, this paper collates and analyzes the ubiquitous influence by using Nvivo11.0 software, and summarizes the ubiquitous influence into three aspects, namely, the basis of ubiquitous influence-spatio-temporal dispersion, the process-mode diversity of ubiquitous influence, and the comprehensiveness of the result-result of ubiquitous influence, and constructs the concept of tutor's ubiquitous influence on graduate students.

Представлены результаты внедрения в хирургическую практику урологического отделения Дорожной клинической больницы г. Ярославль биполярной техники трансуретральной резекции (БТУР) и энуклеации простаты (ТУЭБ) для лечения доброкачественной гиперплазии предстательной железы (ДГПЖ) средних и больших размеров. В сравнительное исследование включено 164 пациента, разделенных по методам операции на 2 основные группы (ТУЭБ - 33 человека, БТУР - 49) и 2 контрольные (открытая простатэктомия - ОПЭ - 38 и монополярная ТУР - 44). Для новых эндоскопических методов установлено значимое снижение объема кровопотери, частоты геморрагических осложнений, сроков послеоперационной катетеризации и госпитализации. Для количественной оценки различий средних и относительных показателей использо-вали непараметрический критерий Манна-Уитни, оценка качественных признаков проводилась с применением критерия Пирсона (χ2), уровень значимости различий для исследования выбран р ≤ 0,05. Анализ послеоперационной динамики клинических показателей в среднесрочной перспективе показал сходную радикальность и эффектив-ность сравниваемых методов. Установленные меньшая инвазивность, большая безопасность и лучшая переносимость биполярных эндоскопических операций демонстрируют перспективность их внедрения взамен бывших стандартных хирургических методов, что позволит повысить качество оперативного лечения и сократить затраты стационара. The results of the introduction into surgical practice of the urological Department of the road clinical hospital of Yaroslavl bipolar technique of transurethral resection (BTTR) and enucleation of the prostate (EOTP) for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) of medium and large sizes are presented. The comparative study included 164 patients, divided by the methods of surgery into 2 main groups (EOTP - 33 people, BTTR - 49) and 2 control (open prostatectomy - OPE - 38 and monopolar TTR - 44). For new endoscopic methods, a significant reduction in the volume of blood loss, the frequency of hemorrhagic complications, the timing of postoperative catheterization and hospitalization was established. Nonparametric Mann-Whitney test was used to quantify the differences in mean and relative indicators, qualitative characteristics were evaluated using Pearson test (χ2), the significance level of the differences for the study was chosen p ≤ 0.05. Analysis of postoperative dynamics of clinical parameters in the medium term showed similar radicality and effectiveness of the compared methods. The lower invasiveness, greater safety and better tolerability of bipolar endoscopic operations demonstrate the prospects of their implementation instead of the former standard surgical methods, which will improve the quality of surgical treatment and reduce the costs of the hospital.

Critical Constraints

The pressure to publish is a fact of life in academia. Academics are expected to demonstrate that they are active researchersand that their work has been vetted by peers and disseminated in reputable scholarly forums. In practice, however, a numberof critical constraints hamper effective publication of scientific research in most developing countries. These include lackof effective mentoring system, poor facilities and inadequate funding for effective research and heavy workload where toomuch time and effort are spent in teaching, grading, meetings and other non-academic activities. In spite of these seeminglyinsurmountable challenges, with proper planning and commitment, one can still conduct research and publish to advanceones career and exchange of knowledge. The paper discusses the critical guiding principles in scientific writing and publishingin an unfriendly research environment as pertains in most universities in the developing world. The overriding principle isto cultivate the discipline of scientific writing consciously and follow it through religiously. This could be achieved if time isallocated for scientific writing in the scheme of weekly schedule of activities and made to be functional through meticulousplanning and commitment. Equally important is to avoid procedural mistakes in scientific writing. While the quality of theresearch is the single most important factor in determining whether an article will be published, a number of proceduralmistakes can help tip the balance against its publication. It should also be noted that when a manuscript is submitted to ascholarly journal, there are two audiences to satisfy: first the editor and external reviewers, and then the journal’s readers.That first group must be satisfied to create the opportunity to appeal to the second. Thus, familiarity with the style and tone ofthe specific journal is crucial.

Finger Skin

: Latent fingerprints are unintentional finger skin impressions left as ridge patterns at crime scenes. A major challenge in latent fingerprint forensics is the poor quality of the lifted image from the crime scene. Forensics investigators are in permanent search of novel outbreaks of the effective technologies to capture and process low quality image. The accuracy of the results depends upon the quality of the image captured in the beginning, metrics used to assess the quality and thereafter level of enhancement required. The low quality of the image collected by low quality scanners, unstructured background noise, poor ridge quality, overlapping structured noise result in detection of false minutiae and hence reduce the recognition rate. Traditionally, Image segmentation and enhancement is partially done manually using help of highly skilled experts. Using automated systems for this work, differently challenging quality of images can be investigated faster. This survey amplifies the comparative study of various segmentation techniques available for latent fingerprint forensics.
