Daha sonra, mutabakat öncesi kıyıdaş olan/olmayan ülkeler ile Türkiye’nin durumu incelenerek, mutabakata giden süreçte yaşananlardan bahsedilmiştir. Bunun sonucunda mutabakatın Türkiye için ve bölge için çok önemli bir hamle olduğu, bölgedeki dengeleri önemli ölçüde sarstığı, bundan sonraki zamanlar için de bir dönüm noktası niteliği taşıdığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır
Structure of K. Levi-Strauss's kinship: theory and critiques
Authors: Storozuk S. , Hoian І.
Published: December 2022

The article shows that the harsh feminist critique of kinship structure proposed by K. Levi-Strauss, does not correspond to the superficiality of reading and misunderstanding of the essence and perspectives of ideas proposed by scientist. Although some of them could, under certain conditions, form the basis for theories of female oppression, the generally well-established structure of kinship has significant potential for explaining family relationships and thus becomes a conceptual basis for refuting educational programs that implicitly discriminate against both men and women. In particular, the scientist argued that the basis of sociality is typical of early societies exchange of women. This practice as a form of initial communication has nothing to do with the oppression of women. On the contrary, it expresses the group's readiness to communicate and share unconditional values. Given that in primitive societies, men usually exchange women, the basic structure of kinship according to K. Levi-Strauss can be reduced to four main elements: brother, sister, father, son. The relationship between them sets the basic models of family relations, because, as proved by the example of numerous field studies of K. Levi-Strauss, is subject to constant social grammar. According to it, the relationship between a mother's brother and a nephew is as related to the relationship between a brother and a sister as the relationship between a father and a son is related to a relationship between a husband and wife. That is, knowing the peculiarities of the relationship in one known pair, we can draw conclusions about the relationship in another pair. The revealed social grammar has a serious explanatory potential in the process of analysis of modern family relations, although in the modern world due to the strengthening of patriarchal ties, the uncle's marital status has significantly depreciated and become symbolic. After all, despite the shortcomings and possible deviations, this gives grounds to refute the widespread in modern intellectual discourse claims about the fundamental role of women in shaping the emotional and psychological atmosphere in a family in which both sexes are equal.

This article discusses the general scientific provisions on the problem of "spiritual culture".In terms of various approaches to the definition of conceptual and categorical apparatus, it is defined that "spiritual culture" is understood as a sphere of human activity that covers various aspects of spiritual and society life, also includes forms of social consciousness (political, legal, moral, aesthetic, religious, science and philosophy) and their embodiment in literary, architectural and other mentions of human activity.Spiritual culture includes education, accomplishment, language and writing, folklore, folk art. Particular attention is paid to the study of the problem of spiritual culture in relation to such approaches as: religious and secular as a new reality created by mankind, which is clearly divided into the unknown world of nature and human-generated world of culture; heritage, which consists in the creation, accumulation, transmission and usage of all results of human activity in the form of cultural legacy at the level of the individual and society in general; civilization, which indicates a certain level of development of material and technical achievements of society in comparison with the spiritual heritage;statehood as a supposition for spiritual culture; the assemblage of material and spiritual values created by mankind throughout history, and various forms of activity, as part of the process have been changed not only living conditions, but also the people themselves. The essence and subject matter of spiritual culture, in the context of the spiritual growth of specialness is explained. Characterized by the uniqueness of the influence of spiritual culture on the specificity of the activation of self-development, self-perfection, self-identity,spiritual growth, provision of socio-cultural development of society.
Workshops and trainings for dialogic interaction: polyculturally centric approach in modern education
Authors: Chaika О.
Published: December 2022

The paper considers some benefits arising from adoption and implementation of methodological approaches and techniques, which explicitly or implicitly connect to using the potential of poly- / multiculturalism oriented workshops and trainings in the technology of dialogic interaction. Dialogic interaction is seen underlying effective professional communication in the course of foreign language (FL) instruction and acquisition, especially driven by cultivating tolerance to language(s) and culture(s) other than the mother tongue. Altogether, poly- / multiculturally driven trainings and workshops help enhance the linguistic skills in communication, as well as culture awareness of future FL teachers / instructors. The purpose for use of active teaching and learning methods, including workshops and trainings, is with independent acquisition of knowledge by students in the process of their active cognitive activity. It is found that game nature of dialogic interaction contributes to the effective study of several foreign languages. To be more specific, it is the organization of educational and cognitive activities in socially modeled game situations, which aims at reduplicating and mastering socio-cultural experience. In the context of learning and teaching foreign languages, the focus on the emotionally sensitive sphere of students in the organization of educational activities provides the decent acquisition of socio-cultural, value-oriented experience through “experiencing it” as it occurs with developing ability to evaluate being. “Experiencing things” in socially simulated situations, students become more aware of themselves as human beings and personalities, realize they are subjects of activity, become aware of their social orientations and values, which forms a socio-moral self-esteem. It is concluded that social role and role behavior arise as drivers for communication in general, and in the educational process, in particular.
Barrier-free communication: what is it like? (peculiarities of current communication through the prism of existence under war conditions)
Authors: Vakulyk I.
Published: December 2022

The study deals with the communication without barriers and its peculiarities of use. The author's attitude to the current events, in which Ukraine has found itself. It formulates and outlines such categories-concentrations as "the poor and the rich", "perception of the world", "volunteer movement", "the native word", "the defenders and the defenders", on which, in the opinion of the author, individual and barrier-free communication in the conditions of the war in war is built. Describes motivation as a crushing force that contributes to enhancement. Implicit nativism is synthesized through perception in the symbolism of the artistic word. Thus, the polyphonic sounding is supplemented by folklore and ritual and confessional means of expression in the projection on the realities of modern life. The aim of the research was the necessity to create such a universal image of a modern Ukrainian in the context of war, to write his psychological portrait on the basis of emotions, experiences and behavior, which through the prism of social and spiritual communication will help to understand why and how we manage to communicate with the world. In the work the descriptive method is used, as well as with maximum objectivity the method of observation and logics of interaction of the components of daily communication is used. The results of the research are based on the principle of conventional analogy. Modern communication is impossible without the maximization of humanity, it must be acumulative. Ukrainians present to the world - we protect our own homes, fight for our native land, believe in a bright future for millions of Ukrainian families.
Critical thinking as "soft skill" for the human of the xxi century
Authors: Matviienko I.
Published: December 2022

Recently, such phrases as logical thinking, analytical thinking and critical thinking have come into common use. These concepts are becoming more and more relevant every day, because these are the necessary skills of a modern person who wants to succeed. The changes that are taking place in the industrial, socio-economic, cultural and other spheres marked changes in the way of thinking, formed a different worldview, changed the attitude to activities that transform the world and society. The challenge for a person of the XXI century is the constant transformation and adaptation of one's own thinking to the thinking of others, while not forgetting about truth, clarity, accuracy and comprehensibility. Critical thinking is a complex dynamic process in which a person, using his or her "ration", learns to question information, put forward theses, look for their confirmation, find weak and strong arguments, and most importantly, make balanced and informed decisions. We must recognize that thinking is a highly complex psychological process without which human existence is impossible, thinking provides the cognitive process in humans, but also transforms and improves knowledge in the course of historical and cultural development of man. Along with the historical self-improvement of thinking, there are such qualities of thinking as criticality and logic. Critical thinking requires certain skills, namely the ability to identify contradictions and contradictions, as well as to find reliable conclusions, and to build their thoughts on the basis of facts and knowledge. The phrase "critical thinking" is understood as the ability to apply all of the above in practice, that is, to justify, analyze, interpret, evaluate and make informed conclusions. A modern person should question the established opinions and judgments, should be able to competently and reasonably conduct a dialogue, determine the essence of the problem and look for alternative solutions, it should be necessary to be able to distinguish the fact that can always be confirmed from assumptions and personal subjective opinion, which is why this article is devoted to the analysis of critical thinking in the education system of Ukraine, which is important for modern Ukrainian society.
Suffix Derivation of Terms in the Veterinary Sublanguage
Authors: Syrotina O.
Published: December 2022

The article characterizes the peculiarities and cognitive potential of suffixal term derivation in the context of veterinary medicine. Linguistic research and description of the formation of the terminological system of veterinary medicine is relevant, since suffixation as a derivational-cognitive and evolutionary mechanism of the language of veterinary medicine is not sufficiently studied by linguistic science. The research material was a sample of lexicographic data recorded in specialized English dictionaries. The main methods used in our research are the method of semantic analysis of terms, lexicographic analysis, methods of classification and systematization, and the method of derivational analysis of terminological units. Various scientific approaches to the definition of the concept of derivation are presented, which is currently being actively studied as an independent linguistic global process and phenomenon in connection with the development of cognitive terminology and the recognition of the creative function of language in the processes of creating new terminological signs. In the derivational system of the language of veterinary medicine, the most popular is suffixation. The characteristic features of the suffixes of the English-language terminological system of veterinary medicine are, firstly, the stability of categorical affiliation, and secondly, the presence of meaning. The examples given by us unequivocally show that suffixes perform the classification function of determining the conceptual affiliation of a particular veterinary term. Processes of suffixal terminological derivation of substantives in veterinary terminology are important cognitive processes of development of the scientific picture of the world and language as a whole. Analysis of the specificity and role of suffixation in term formation shows a number of important aspects. First, there is a tendency to fix certain suffixes according to separate categories of concepts, in connection with which it is possible to single out groups of suffixes that express the categories of person, procedurality, objectivity, properties. Secondly, synonymy and homonymy of suffix formants are observed. Processes of suffix term derivation have a characteristic property that allows to reflect in the cognitive structure of the term its categorical affiliation, that is, the term belongs to a certain conceptual class.
Language Teaching and Intercultural Communication. Today's Challenges and Difficulties in Teaching and Learning Foreign Languages
Authors: Pace M.
Published: December 2022

An important sub-objective of the Lisbon Strategy states that there is a need to improve foreign language teaching at all levels of education throughout Europe. Over the past two decades, countries in the world have become ever more interdependent and many existing borders have been erased. Multilingualism, or proficiency in more than one language, is internationally gaining positive support and is viewed as an educational goal by many countries. This has brought about a situation where foreign language teaching and learning has become more necessary than ever, not simply for linking with the rest of the world but above all for producing active citizens able to function in today’s ever-shrinking world. Good communication skills in foreign languages has never been so important and necessary. Such rapid and profound social changes have not only increased the number of foreign language teachers and students and brought about complex and intriguing problems related to quality in teaching and learning, but they have also deeply affected present-day teaching methods and approaches. In today’s world, if foreign language teaching is to be successful, it is important that teaching systems and programmes are continuously remodelled, keeping in mind the social changes that have occurred in recent years. Such changes compel us to adapt to new social, cultural and linguistic realities: young people’s language use, their way of doing things, their way of studying today is very different to what it was some years ago. These also present a vast array of qualms that have to be dealt with in the foreign language classroom, namely, assessment strategies, the correct use of technological resources, and mixed ability and multicultural classrooms. All this implies that in order to make students become autonomous learners, which is the ultimate goal in language teaching, what is presented in class has to be relevant and pertinent to the students’ everyday life experiences.
The Morphology of the Sensilla on the Proboscis of Aporia crataegi (Linnaeus, 1758) (Lepidoptera: Pieridae)
Authors: CANDAN Selami , ÖZYURT KOÇAKOĞLU Nurcan
Published: December 2022

Proboscis structure and sensilla types are important morphological characters for the systematic analysis of Lepidoptera families. There is no study on proboscis structure and sensilla types of Aporia crataegi (Linnaeus, 1758) (Lepidoptera: Pieridae) despite the fact that it is an important pest. For this purpose, the sensilla types and proboscis structure of A. crataegi were investigated by using stereomicroscope and scanning electron microscope in detail. The results show that the proboscis of A. crataegi has three sensillum types (sensilla basiconica, sensilla trichodea, and sensilla styloconica). Sensilla basiconica consists of a sensory cone with a single terminal pore surrounded by a shallow socket and has a flat surface. Sensilla trichodea (chaetica) is bristle-shaped. The bristles of sensilla trichodea are poreless and smooth. Sensilla styloconicum has a smooth stylus, blunt tip, and long peg. In this study, the proboscis structure and sensilla types of A. crataegi were discussed with morphological similarities and differences of the other lepidopteran species’ proboscis structure and sensilla types. Thus, they contribute to the understanding of proboscis structure and sensilla types in Lepidoptera including Pieridae.

Published: December 2022

Is relevant to study the perioperative use of minimal gas flow (minimal flow) during inhalation anesthesia in patients undergoing laparoscopic surgical interventions, in particular with hiatal hernia (HH).
The aim of the study. To study the possibility of using minimal flow anesthesia with sevoflurane and evaluate its place in the perioperative management of patients with HH.
Material and methods. The study was prospective, not randomized: 128 patients with HH, who underwent laparoscopic cruroraphy with Nissen fundoplication under general anesthesia with sevoflurane with low and minimal gas flow. Age 33-78 years, ASA II-III. (m.-67, w-61). ). In group I (n=66) Fresh Gas Flow (FGF) = 1,0 l/min, in group II (n=62) – FGF ≤0,5 l/min. All patients underwent personalized perioperative energy monitoring using indirect calorimetry.
The results. The baseline metabolic parameters were without disturbance and significantly exceeded the basal metabolism. Anesthesia in Group I with a gas flow of 1 L/min was more stable, manageable and predictable. In group II with gas flow ≤ 0,5 l/min, at the stage of crurorrhaphy and fundoplication, there was a decrease in the FiO2–FeO2 gradient to 4,4% and a metabolic disorder of 27,2%, which in 14 (22,6%) patients needed a transition for low flow ventilation mode with gas flow 1l/min.
Conclusions. Personalized perioperative energy monitoring makes it safer to perform inhalation anesthesia with gas flow ≤0,5 l/min. in patients with HH.

Abstract. This article contains descriptive data on the etiology, pathogenesis, clinical presentation, diagnostics and treatment of Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN). SJS and TEN are relatively rare conditions, however, due to their severity, lethality and long-term negative consequences it is not only necessary to understand their etiopathogenesis clearly, but it’s also crucial to be alert to the patient’s allergic anamnesis for timely assessment of their condition and diagnosis with following adequate therapy. Prevalence of these diseases is from 0.4 to 1.4 cases per million persons per year, total lethality is approximately — 20 %. Development of these diseases is related to genetic predisposition of the human leukocyte antigen system (HLA). Medications are the most common triggers and play an important role in their onset, other factors, including infections, can also significantly affect the risk of their inception. In the present day, the SCORTEN scale is used to assess the severity of SJS and TEN. General principles of patients’ curation are based on the multidisciplinary approach, early diagnosis, discontinuation of trigger medications that could possibly cause SJS and TEN. In case when SJS/TEN were caused by infections, patient receives appropriate etiotropic therapy to eliminate the infection. The complex treatment algorithm must ensure hemodynamic stability, pain reduction, detoxification, local treatment, elimination of concomitant infections, use of anti-inflammatory and various immunotropic agents.
A Personalized Approach to Acute Bronchitis Treatment in Children. Evidence-based Practice
Authors: Berezna T. H.
Published: December 2022

Absract. The symptom of cough is one of the most common reasons for contacting primary care physicians. And acute bronchitis is one of the five nosologies that doctors encounter every day. Most often in different periods of life acute bronchitis has viral etiology. Modern guidelines for the management of these conditions in children are widely available, but real clinical practice shows various, often unreasonable approaches, with polypharmacy to patients’ management, in particular, and widespread practice of prescribing antibiotics. In addition to side effects, they contribute to the growing problem of antibiotic resistance, which is considered to be a real threat to national security by the World Health Organization (WHO). In May 2015 the WHO approved the Global Action Plan on Antimicrobial Resistance, including Antibiotics, which must solve 5 strategic objectives: increase awareness and understanding of antimicrobial resistance, improve surveillance and research, reduce the number of infections, optimize the use of antimicrobials, ensure sustainable investment in the goals of countering resistance to antimicrobial drugs. The issue of finding an effective treatment for coronavirus infection remains relevant. The article presents a review of current guidelines that determine the strategy of prescribing antimicrobial drugs for acute cough associated with upper respiratory tract infection or acute bronchitis in adults, young people and children. A personalized approach to the management of such conditions using Dekasan inhalation solution with a nebulizer is proposed on the basis of scientific researches, including the effect on the SARS-CoV-2, comprised in the instructions for medical use of the drug.
Spectrum of Sensitization to the Molecular Components of Dog Allergens in Patients with Respiratory Allergopathology
Authors: Lykova M. A.
Published: December 2022

Abstract. The aim of study: to analyze the dependence of the severity of the course of allergic rhinitis (AR) and/or bronchial asthma (BA) in patients with hypersensitivity to dog allergens from sensitization to individual dog allergenic proteins. Research materials and methods. Blood serum obtained from the venous blood of 102 patients (37 women and 65 men) with a confirmed diagnosis of persistent AR and/or BA and hypersensitivity to dog allergens was used for the study of dog allergenic proteins. Serum was analyzed for the presence of the major dog allergen proteins Can f1 and Can f5 and the minor (cross-linking) protein Can f3 using ImmunoCAP technology (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Uppsala, Sweden). Results. The vast majority of patients with a mild form of persistent AR were monosensitized to one of the main dog allergen proteins Can f1 (50 %) or Can f5 (33 %). Whereas sensitization to 2 proteins occurred in this category of patients much less frequently, as only 12 % of patients were sensitized to Can f1 and Can f5, and 5 % to Can f1 and Can f3 simultaneously. In patients with a moderate and severe form of persistent AR, the sensitization profile was dominated by hypersensitivity to several allergenic components (Can f1 and Can f5), which occurred in 40 % of the examined, and sensitization to 3 components (Can f1, Can f5 and Сan f3) of allergens dogs — in 50 % of patients. Among the examined patients with BA, the most frequent proteins in the form of mono- or co-sensitization were the main dog allergens Can f1 and Can f5. Monosensitization to the minor component of Can f3 was not detected in any patient from both groups of subjects. Conclusions. The vast majority of patients with AR and/or BA and hypersensitivity to dog allergens were sensitized to one or both of the major dog allergens Can f1 and Can f5. As a rule, sensitization to 2 or more allergenic proteins was associated with a more severe course of respiratory allergy pathology. At the same time, special attention should be paid to monosensitization to Can f5 dog urinary kallikrein, which occurred in the examined subjects, because this component is often absent in allergen extracts for skin prick tests and in allergen extracts for allergen-specific immunotherapy (AIT), which can lead to before receiving false-negative test results and ineffective AIT.
Mixed Cryoglobulinemia Syndrome: Features of the Clinical Course and Treatment. Literature Review and Description of a Clinical Case Associated with COVID-19
Authors: Tsaryk V. V.
Published: December 2022

Abstract. The aim of the study was to analyze the literature rewiew regarding modern methods of diagnosis and treatment of mixed cryoglobulinemia. Mixed cryoglobulinemia syndrome (MCS) is a unique systemic inflammatory syndrome, which includes small- and medium-sized vessel vasculitis caused by cryoglobulin-containing immune complexes. MCS is potentially caused by hepatitis C virus infection. It may also be associated with autoimmune or lymphoproliferative disorders or, rarely, may be idiopathic. The diagnosis of MCS should be suspected in any patient who presents with one or more of the following clinical features: palpable purpura, skin ulcers, arthralgias and/or arthritis, peripheral neuropathy, and/or microscopic hematuria or proteinuria with or without chronic kidney disease. The general approach of management of moderate to severe mixed cryoglobulinemia should include targeted treatment of the underlying disease causing the cryoglobulinemia along or with additional immunosuppressive therapy. In some cases, immunosuppressive therapy is started first, and then, after stabilization of disease, therapy for the underlying disease is added. The main indication for immunosuppressive therapy is a progressive systemic disease of the kidneys, nervous system, gastrointestinal tract, skin, or vasculitis with necrosis. The prognosis is variable and depends on the severity of the disease and the response of the underlying disease to therapy. In this publication, we also describe a rare clinical case of mixed cryoglobulinemia associated with COVID-19. Thus, the syndrome of cryoglobulinemia is quite difficult both in diagnosis, taking into account the heterogeneity of clinical and laboratory data, and in treatment which makes it necessary to select effective immunosuppressive therapy in specific clinical cases.

Published: December 2022

This study aims to examine the antioxidant activity of a mixture of coffee beans and avocado peels in various combinations. Avocado peels were obtained from the subdistrict of Lampineung, Banda Aceh, Indonesia while the samples of Arabica coffee beans were collected from a local coffee farmer in Pantan Cuaca, district of Gayo Lues, Aceh, Indonesia at the coordinate of 4°10'52.8"N 97°13'12.9"E. The avocado peels were dried by wind-dry method to maintain the secondary metabolite compounds and divided into two parts rough avocado peel and avocado peel powder. Raw coffee beans were also divided into two parts, to be roasted together with avocado peel and pure coffee beans. Each sample was extracted by maceration method for 48 hours using 96% ethanol and then evaporated with a rotary evaporator to obtain a thick extract. The antioxidant assay was carried out by using DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2- picrylhydrazyl) technique. The antioxidant activity test showed that the raw avocado peels had better antioxidant power with an IC50 value of 4.03 µg.mL-1 approaching the IC50 value of the standard (C6H8O6, CAS No. 50-81-7) 2.96 µg/mL. Meanwhile, roasted coffee and avocado peels have an IC50 value of 4.92 µg/mL and are included in the medium category. This value is better than the IC50 of pure coffee powder 9.71 µg.mL-1. The addition of avocado peels to the coffee can significantly elevate its antioxidant activity.
OXIDATION KINETICS AND INFLUENCE OF MEDIA ON SOME -HYDROXY ACIDS BY 2-PICOLINIUM CHLOROCHROMATE
Authors: Singadiya Ambika , Jangir Rakesh , Bishnoi Pramila , Prakash Om
Published: December 2022

A few substituted mandelic acids are oxidized by one of the halochromates 2-picolinium chlorochromate (PiCC) under the influence of dimethyl-sulphoxide (DMSO) as a solvent medium, leading to the form of some oxo-acids. It was observed that this reaction is found to be of unit order with oxidant and less than unity with the reactant. It was also observed that the reaction is not proceeding through the free radical mechanism. A considerable kinetic isotope effect was observed in the oxidation of the deuteriated form of mandalic acid (DMA). The solvent isotope effect was also absent in this reaction. The hydrogen ion effect was observed as the rate is increasing with an increase in the acidity of the medium. To ascertain the importance of solvent media, the reaction of the acids is studied in nineteen different solvent media, which was analyzed by the multipara metric LSER model of Taft and solvating power model of Swain. We are proposing the transfer of hydride ions from acid to the oxidant as its mechanism.

New aspects of the right to life through the lens of the Inter-American Court of Human Rights
Authors: Nelaeva Galina
Published: December 2022

In the Inter-American Court of Human Rights case-law the question of the right to life is not new: the Court emphasized on numerous occasions the necessity for the states to observe both negative and positive obligations stemming from Article 4 of the American Convention on Human Rights. However, recent IACtHR judgments show that the socio-economic dimension of the right to life is increasingly being taken into account by the Court when interpreting Article 4 in conjunction with other Articles of the Convention. It includes the right to a healthy environment, the right to health, the right to water, food and other aspects, without which a decent life is unthinkable.

Virus-Like Cytosolic and Cell-Free Oxidatively Damaged Nucleic Acids Likely Drive Inflammation, Synapse Degeneration, and Neuron Death in Alzheimer’s Disease
Authors: Sanders Owen Davis
Published: December 2022

Oxidative stress, inflammation, and amyloid-β are Alzheimer’s disease (AD) hallmarks that cause each other and other AD hallmarks. Most amyloid-β-lowering, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial AD clinical trials failed; none stopped or reversed AD. Although signs suggest an infectious etiology, no pathogen accumulated consistently in AD patients. Neuropathology, neuronal cell culture, rodent, genome-wide association, epidemiological, biomarker, and clinical studies, plus analysis using Hill causality criteria and revised Koch’s postulates, indicate that the virus-like oxidative damage-associated molecular-pattern (DAMP) cytosolic and cell-free nucleic acids accumulated in AD patients’ brains likely drive neuroinflammation, synaptotoxicity, and neurotoxicity. Cytosolic oxidatively-damaged mitochondrial DNA accumulated outside mitochondria dose-dependently in preclinical AD and AD patients’ hippocampal neurons, and in AD patients’ neocortical neurons but not cerebellar neurons or glia. In oxidatively-stressed neural cells and rodents’ brains, cytosolic oxidatively-damaged mitochondrial DNA accumulated and increased antiviral and inflammatory proteins, including cleaved caspase-1, interleukin-1β, and interferon-β. Cytosolic double-stranded RNA and DNA are DAMPs that induce antiviral interferons and/or inflammatory proteins by oligomerizing with various innate-immune pattern-recognition receptors, e.g., cyclic GMP-AMP synthase and the nucleotide-binding-oligomerization-domain-like-receptor-pyrin-domain-containing-3 inflammasome. In oxidatively-stressed neural cells, cytosolic oxidatively-damaged mitochondrial DNA caused synaptotoxicity and neurotoxicity. Depleting mitochondrial DNA prevented these effects. Additionally, cell-free nucleic acids accumulated in AD patients’ blood, extracellular vesicles, and senile plaques. Injecting cell-free nucleic acids bound to albumin oligomers into wild-type mice’s hippocampi triggered antiviral interferon-β secretion; interferon-β injection caused synapse degeneration. Deoxyribonuclease-I treatment appeared to improve a severe-AD patient’s Mini-Mental Status Exam by 15 points. Preclinical and clinical studies of deoxyribonuclease-I and a ribonuclease for AD should be prioritized.

Published: December 2022

By defining global equity and other mathematical methods, this paper constructs an equity distribution system for the asteroid mining industry which uses AHP and weight-based Topsis to construct a global equity evaluation model. This model obtains the equity coefficients of 117 countries, which can provide a thorough guiding reference in the distribution of benefits to some degree. Then, the concept of the relative deprivation coefficient is added to the model to adjust the equity of distribution. The model assigns different priorities to countries in the asteroid mining industry, speeding up mining efficiency while improving equity. What’s more, we also combine the models to construct a standard world framework to show the change of global equity coefficient in a century in the phenomenon of ideal asteroid mining. Based on the model we formulate, we conduct an experiment and visualization to show the worldwide change of equity coefficients.

Published: December 2022

The removal of disabled satellites requires the chaser satellite to perform approach tasks. The uncertainties of chaser inertial parameters and thruster output force affect the control accuracy, which may lead to a collision. In this paper, a modified least square method is proposed to refine the model of the chaser satellite, and then the identified parameters are then applied to the controller to reduce control error. Firstly, an optimal trajectory is planned and then performed in space, after which the state sequences are transmitted to the ground. Next, in order to refine the satellite model, a modified least square method is carried out to identify the modification ratio of thrusters, in which two extra limits are introduced to enhance convergence. One is the maximum fix value per step, the other is the total fix upper limit. Finally, the chaser controller is integrated with the modification value. Simulation results indicate that the proposed method enhances the process of convergence and significantly reduces the remaining error.

A green energy certificate transaction, as one of the ways to meet China’s renewable energy quota system, is a virtual transaction through the renewable energy trading system. Different from the market mechanism of only one transaction in the past audit cycle, this paper establishes an agent-based renewable energy system with multi-period trading according to the existing green energy certificate trading policy. With simulation of a period of audit of green spot multi-period transactions, the agent of limited rationality makes it in the pursuit of their utility under the premise of interaction. The experiment observes the utility level of agents under different trading strategies, verifies the influence of different policy behaviors on the market, and obtains the market equilibrium state. The conclusion shows that there is a serious green certificate premium in the early stage of the market. After adjustment by fines, the green certificate price of 0.05-0.08 yuan can maximize social welfare and stimulate the enthusiasm for individual purchases.

Published: December 2022

Adaptive-MPC is adopted to control ethanol fermentation coupled with membrane separation process at high product concentration, and impulsive operation of steam at the pervaporation side is realized through this control implementation. Firstly, a continuous ethanol fermentation model is analyzed through Andronov-Hopf bifurcation, and the condition for determining the self-oscillatory dynamics is identified; the introduction of in situ product removal (ISPR) couples fermentation and separation to eliminate product inhibition, as to stabilize the process. Then, an adaptive-MPC is implemented to control this nonlinear process, where the Kalman filter algorithm is used to estimate the parameters of the derived ARX model online. Finally, Compared with MPC, the adaptive-MPC obtains better control effect, moreover, impulsive operation strategy is achieved: after some transient dynamics, the impulsive operational period reaches steady state of 12 hour interval, of which 7 hours are out of operation. This result could aid periodic operation design for ethanol fermentation at high concentrations.
