Background

The progression and geographical distribution of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection in the United Kingdom (UK) and elsewhere is unknown because typically only symptomatic individuals are diagnosed. We performed a serological study of blood donors in Scotland in the spring of 2020 to detect neutralising antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 as a marker of past infection and epidemic progression.

Aim

Our objective was to determine if sera from blood bank donors can be used to track the emergence and progression of the SARS-CoV-2 epidemic.

Methods

A pseudotyped SARS-CoV-2 virus microneutralisation assay was used to detect neutralising antibodies to SARS-CoV-2. The study comprised samples from 3,500 blood donors collected in Scotland between 17 March and 18 May 2020. Controls were collected from 100 donors in Scotland during 2019.

Results

All samples collected on 17 March 2020 (n = 500) were negative in the pseudotyped SARS-CoV-2 virus microneutralisation assay. Neutralising antibodies were detected in six of 500 donors from 23 to 26 March. The number of samples containing neutralising antibodies did not significantly rise after 5–6 April until the end of the study on 18 May. We found that infections were concentrated in certain postcodes, indicating that outbreaks of infection were extremely localised. In contrast, other areas remained comparatively untouched by the epidemic.

Conclusion

Although blood donors are not representative of the overall population, we demonstrated that serosurveys of blood banks can serve as a useful tool for tracking the emergence and progression of an epidemic such as the SARS-CoV-2 outbreak.

An outbreak of 59 cases of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) originated with 13 cases linked by a 7 h, 17% occupancy flight into Ireland, summer 2020. The flight-associated attack rate was 9.8–17.8%. Spread to 46 non-flight cases occurred country-wide. Asymptomatic/pre-symptomatic transmission in-flight from a point source is implicated by 99% homology across the virus genome in five cases travelling from three different continents. Restriction of movement on arrival and robust contact tracing can limit propagation post-flight.

TEACHER EDUCATION FROM E-LEARNER TO E-TEACHER
Authors: Subramanian A.
Published: October 2020

E-learning and e-teaching systems are involved in teachers professional activities and development in several ways (a) If e-learning/e-teaching is the technology which supports the process of teachers learning of university courses, the teacher is in the position of e-learner; (b) If e-learning/e-teaching is the content of the teachers university curricula in order to be applied in the teaching process, the teacher switches from the position of e learner to the one of e-teacher in blended or total e-learning systems. Systematic formal teacher education concerning e-learning/e-teaching implementation, and the structure of teachers ICT competencies and e-competencies, as well as the reasons for their occurrence, are considered. Teachers can be in a position of the creator of e-teaching process or the user of the e-teaching/e-learning attainment. Teachers need to re-think their underlying assumptions about teaching, about learning process, and, most fundamentally, about their role as educators. Teacher activities in e-teaching scenarios can be broken into two major tasks: providing the content for the students and supporting communication between students and tutors. Both tasks pose problems to teachers who are used to follow more traditional teaching methods so far. Therefore, modern teachers and e-teachers must be able to organize different types of e-learning and e-teaching scenarios. E-teaching requires a wide spectrum of e-roles. It is necessary for teachers in e-education environment to acquire sufficient knowledge about e-teaching and e-learning. e-learning can contribute to addressing each challenge by enhancing the preparation of new teachers, providing high quality and readily accessible professional development opportunities for active teachers, and making the teaching profession more attractive. The paper suggests that e-learning potential is a powerful tool for directing the teacher’s quality challenges and obtaining e-teaching competencies. E-learning for teachers must reflect the principles of effective teachers’ professional development.

The Akkadian Cylinder Seal – Metonym for Life in Akkad
Authors: Jack Jessica
Published: October 2020

Akkadian cylinder seals, though tiny physical objects, were useful and significant to the Akkadians. This work explores those uses and significances in order to understand the cultural complexity reflected in these small items. Religious scenes on cylinder seals detail the spiritual beliefs and practices of the time. The deeply intertwined relationship between religion and state power in Akkad is also present in the decorations of some cylinder seals. The materials from which cylinder seals are made indicate trade with distant groups and signal the passage of both materials and cultural influences between groups. These cylinder seals also reflect the complexities of daily life; politics, distribution of resources, the specialization of craftspeople, and art can all be read in these minute cylinders. As well, the making of cylinder seals was a technologically complex process, demonstrating sophistication of technique and of material choice that points to the sophistication of the people who made them. Ultimately, these physical and social properties of cylinder seals indicate that they had multiple meanings in the life of Akkadians.
“Without Tits There Is No Paradise”: Medical Tourism and Cosmetic Surgery in Colombia
Authors: MacDonald Ariel
Published: October 2020

Globalization has allowed for the international flow of information, goods, services and, oddly enough, medical patients. Medical tourism is a growing globalized industry, where the ability to pay and willingness to travel have become prerequisites for medical care. The case study of cosmetic surgery in Colombia reveals that the advertising and information provided online compliments the literature’s descriptions of what is desirable and sought out by medical tourists. Johnston et al. (2012) established that the medical tourist’s interest in the characteristics of the country they visit is minor. However, the underlying national stereotypes or aesthetics may have an unconscious effect of association on the decision of medical tourists. For the medical tourism industry, the national stereotypes and aesthetics are a marketing opportunity to distinguish themselves from their international competitors beyond the comparable affordability of their services. Cosmetic surgery in Colombia indicates that, although medical tourism is a massively globalized industry, the roots and ongoing success of specializations in countries may have cultural origins that are not purely the product of foreign market demands.

Ti proteggo, ti punisco. L’agire imprevedibile dei santi e degli spiriti osseti
Authors: Ognibene Paolo
Published: October 2020

Many spirits of the traditional Ossetian religion had a double role: on the one hand they protected, on the other they punished in case of transgression. Unfortunately these spirits were highly unpredictable. In many cases the punishment for a transgression was a disease: in fact, in the mountain villages no one believed that a disease could be transmitted from person to person: the idea of contagion was absent.
Le trasformazioni urbane nella Tbilisi post-sovietica
Authors: Zenobi Vincenzo
Published: October 2020

After the Rose Revolution, a process of transformation of the city begins. Very different public and private architectures from the past arise, while the strategies for the conservation of old Tbilisi are matter of discussion. To understand the factors that determine the creation of new urban spaces we first need to focus on two factors: the process of Institution Building that follows the Rose Revolution and the emergence of a political narrative that combines modernisation and nationalism. The hypothesis is that these two factors create the ground for developing the specific practices of transformation of the city and for the emergence of a new urban form.
Central Asia in Contemporary Russian Literature
Authors: Novokhatskiy Dmitry
Published: October 2020

Central Asia in contemporary Russian literature is represented by two main discourses, Nostalgia discourse and New Orientalism discourse. This article follows a diachronic perspective in an attempt to understand their origins, the characteristics of the Tashkent text and the Tajikistan text in literature, as well as historical and cultural factors which led to the present-day image of Central Asia in Russian culture, from the first Orientalist works through hybridisation processes to the collapse of the USSR and the Post-Soviet trauma. As a sample of contemporary literature, novels by Dina Rubina, Suhbat Aflatuni, Andrey Volos, Yevgeny Chizhov and other writers are analysed.

The Picture Superiority Effect in Memory Detection: Modality Effects in the Concealed Information Test
Authors: Van der Cruyssen Ine , Regnath Franziska , Ben-Shakhar Gershon , Pertzov Yoni , Verschuere Bruno
Published: October 2020

The picture superiority effect is particularly relevant in the context of memory detection. In the current study, participants encoded crime-related details and concealed them in a Concealed Information Test (CIT). Items were encoded and tested verbally or pictorially. Both the pilot study (N=73) and the preregistered study (N=158) showed evidence for a picture superiority effect: Pictorially encoded items were easier to detect. We also found an interaction between encoding and testing: Items that were encoded and tested in the same modality were associated with better detection. Lastly, recognition of verbally encoded items could not be detected in a pictorial test. Our findings support the existence of picture superiority also when subjects conceal their knowledge. In applied scenarios, the modality of test items should be matched to the modality in which crime-related details were encoded. Furthermore, a pictorial CIT might fail to detect concealed knowledge if crime-related details were encoded verbally.

Sedimentological and stratigraphic criteria to distinguish between basin-floor and slope mudstones: Implications for the delivery of mud to deep-water environments
Authors: Boulesteix Kévin , Poyatos-Moré Miquel , Flint Stephen , Hodgson David , Taylor Kevin , Brunt Rufus
Published: October 2020

Deep-water mudstones overlying basin-floor and slope sandstone-prone deposits are widely interpreted as hemipelagic drapes deposited during extended periods of sand starvation. However, the processes of mud transport and deposition, and the resulting facies and sedimentary architecture of mudstones in different deep-water environments, remain poorly understood. This study documents the sedimentology and stratigraphy of basin-floor and slope mudstone units intercalated with sandstone-prone deposits of the Laingsburg depocentre (Karoo Basin, South Africa). The mudstone units have been mapped for 2500 km 2 and investigated using macroscopic and microscopic descriptions from a continuous core dataset. Basin-floor mudstones exhibit a repeated and predictable alternation of bedsets dominated by low-density turbidites, and massive packages dominated by debrites, with evidence of turbulent to laminar flow transformations. Slope mudstones exhibit a similar facies assemblage, but the proportion of low-density turbidites is higher, bioturbation is more pervasive, and no repeated or predictable facies organisation is recognised. Regional mapping evidences a gradual basinward tapering of all mudstone units, consistent with the distal part of basin margin clinothems, and suggests a dominant line-source of mud delivery beyond the shelf edge. However, the well-ordered and predictable facies organisation of the basin-floor mudstones also suggest the presence of local point sources from active slope conduits, responsible for the deposition of compensationally-stacked muddy lobes. The lack of a predictable facies organisation in slope mudstones suggests deposition took place in a more variable range of sub-environments. For the first time we present a set of sedimentological and stratigraphic criteria to distinguish between submarine slope and basin-floor mudstones, which may provide an important tool to refine palaeogeographic reconstructions of other deep-water successions. This study suggests that deep-water mud can be delivered dominantly by sediment gravity flows through both line-and point-source supply, during periods of up-dip sand storage, challenging the model of basin-floor sediment starvation.
Grain based modelling of rocks using the combined finite-discrete element method
Authors: Abdelaziz Aly
Published: October 2020

This paper describes the implementation and advantages of grain based modelling (GBM) in the combined finite-discrete element method (FDEM) to study the mechanical behaviour of crystalline rocks. GBM in FDEM honours grain petrological properties and explicitly models grain boundaries. The simulation results demonstrated that GBM in FDEM predicted more realistic microscopic and macroscopic response of rocks than conventional FDEM models. The explicit modelling of crack boundaries captured microscopic failure transition from along grain boundaries to coalescence along the shear band, dominated by intraphase cracks. This novel framework presents a gateway into further understanding the behaviour of crystalline rocks and granular minerals.
Can Airless Tyres Eliminate Caravan Fishtailing
Authors: Brell Edward
Published: October 2020

A tyre blow-out on a caravan can be disastrous, even fatal in severe situations. A non-pneumatic wheel (NPT) has the obvious advantage of being resistant to the DREADED FLAT TYRE. Thus, there is promise of safety. A number of tyre manufacturers have been busy developing a tyre or complete wheel to capitalize on this benefit. The best-known NPT is dubbed the TWEEL®. The nomenclature of Michelin’s NPT is a joining of parts of the two words, Tire and Wheel. The TWEEL® has application to skid-steer loaders and commercial lawn mowers. Michelin encountered problems in the development of the TWEEL® for high speed use. One of these problems encountered by Michelin in the development of the Tweel may be a god-send for caravan wheels as they develop their new NPT for highway use. The design of the so-called UPTIS® is not just an improved version of the TWEEL® but a completely different operating philosophy. This paper considers the evolution of the NPT and considers how it might be beneficial in the caravan context. To illustrate, a fishtailing tale to tell gets told.
ACE2: THE DOORWAY TO SARS-CoV-2

Published: October 2020

The angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) is the host functional receptor for the new virus SARS-CoV-2 causing Coronavirus Disease 2019. ACE2 is expressed in 71 different cell types. Some factors that can affect the expression of the ACE2 are: sex, environment, lifestyles, comorbidities, medications (e.g. anti-hypertensives) and its interaction with other genes of the renin-angiotensin system and other pathways. All of these factors can affect the risk of infection of SARS-CoV-2 and determine the severity of the symptoms. The ACE2 enzyme is a negative regulator of RAS expressed in various organ systems. It has been seen to be associated with immunity, inflammation, increased coagulopathy, and cardiovascular disease. In this review, we describe the genetic and molecular functions of the ACE2 receptor and its relation with the physiological and pathological conditions to better understand how this receptor is involved in the pathogenesis of COVID-19.
Knowledge is a river and education is like a stairway: An eye movement study on how L2 speakers process metaphors and similes
Authors: Olkoniemi Henri , Bertram Raymond , Kaakinen Johanna K.
Published: October 2020

Very little is known about the processes underlying second language (L2) speakers’ understanding of written metaphors and similes. Moreover, most of the theories on figurative language comprehension do not consider reader-related factors. In the study, we used eye-tracking to examine how native Finnish speakers (N = 63) read written English nominal metaphors (“education is a stairway”) and similes (“education is like a stairway”). Identical topic–vehicle pairs were used in both conditions. After reading, participants evaluated familiarity of each pair. English proficiency was measured using the Bilingual-language Profile Questionnaire and the Lexical Test for Advanced Learners of English. The results showed that readers were more likely to regress within metaphors than within similes, indicating that processing metaphors requires more processing effort than processing similes. The familiarity of a metaphor and L2 English proficiency modulated this effect. The results are discussed in the light of current theories on figurative language processing.

Screening Screeners: Calculating Classification Indices Using Correlations and Cut-points
Authors: Edwards Ashley , van Dijk Wilhelmina , White Christine M. , Schatschneider Chris
Published: October 2020

Given the recent push for universal screening, it is important to take into account how well the screener identifies children as well as what contributes to this classification based on screener and sample information. If we assume a bivariate normal distribution, we can calculate all of the classification information for a screener based on the correlation between the screener and outcome, the cut-point on the outcome (base rate in sample), and the cut-point on the screener. We provide an example with empirical data to validate these estimation procedures. This information is put together in a free online tool that provides classification information for a given correlation between screener and outcome and cut-points on each. Through this we can see that the correlation between the screener and outcome needs to be very high, greater than .9 (higher than observed in practice) to obtain good classification. These findings are important for researchers, administrators, and practitioners because our current screeners don’t meet these requirements. Since a correlation is dependent on the reliability of the measures involved, we need screeners with better reliability and the use of multiple measures to increase reliability. Additionally, we demonstrate the impact of base rate on positive predictive power and discuss how gated screening can be useful in samples with low base rates.
Continuities and discontinuities in the cognitive mechanisms associated with clinical and non-clinical auditory verbal hallucinations
Authors: Moseley Peter , Alderson-Day Ben , Common Stephanie , Dodgson Guy , Lee Rebecca , Mitrenga Kaja Julia , Moffatt Jamie A. , Fernyhough Charles
Published: October 2020

Auditory verbal hallucinations (AVH) are typically associated with schizophrenia but also occur in individuals without any need for care (non-clinical voice-hearers; NCVH). Cognitive models of AVH posit potential biases in source-monitoring, top-down processes, or a failure to inhibit intrusive memories. However, research across clinical/non-clinical groups is limited, and the extent to which there may be continuity in cognitive mechanism across groups, as predicted by the psychosis continuum hypothesis, is unclear. We report two studies in which voice-hearers recruited from Early Intervention in Psychosis (EIP) services (n = 31) and NCVH participants reporting regular spiritual voices (n = 26) completed the same cognitive task battery. Compared to controls (n = 33 and 28), EIP patients showed atypical signal detection, dichotic listening, and memory inhibition performance, but intact source-monitoring. NCVH participants only showed atypical signal detection, suggesting differences between clinical and non-clinical voices potentially related to attentional control and inhibition.
Self-directed Learning by Preschoolers in a Naturalistic Overhearing Context
Authors: Foushee Ruthe , Srinivasan Mahesh , Xu Fei
Published: October 2020

Three studies investigated preschoolers' self-directed learning ability in a naturalistic context: learning from overheard speech. In Experiment 1, 4.5- to 6-year-olds were exposed to 4 novel words and 6 arbitrary facts corresponding to a set of co-present toys; in Experiment 2, 3- to 4.5-year-olds heard 5 nouns and 3 facts. In the Pedagogical conditions, children were taught the information with the aid of multiple pedagogical cues, but in the Overhearing conditions, children had to listen in to one side of a phone call to learn the information. Older preschoolers (Experiment 1) learned all items above chance in both conditions. Younger preschoolers (Experiment 2) learned words and facts above chance in the Pedagogical condition but were at chance at learning words in the Overhearing condition, despite reliably learning facts from overhearing. Experiment 3 demonstrated that younger children's difficulty at learning new words from overhearing could not be explained by only being able to hear one side of the phone conversation, as they similarly struggled when the phone call took place over speakerphone. Measures of children's touch behavior suggest that older children were better able to coordinate their attention between the overheard speech and objects, though even younger children showed evidence of attention to the overheard speech. Together, our results demonstrate that by age 5, children can learn multiple new words and facts via overhearing. This self-directed learning ability depends on being able to coordinate attention between speech and the surrounding environment, a capacity that develops throughout preschool.
Towards a model of urban evolution I: context
Authors: Silver Daniel , Fox Mark , Adler Patrick
Published: October 2020

This paper seeks to develop the core concepts of a model of urban evolution. It proceeds in four major sections. First we review prior adumbrations of an evolutionary model in urban theory, not-ing their potential and their limitations. Second, we turn to the general sociocultural evolution litera-ture to draw inspiration for a fresh and more complete application of evolutionary theory to the study of urban life. Third, building upon this background, we outline the main elements of our proposed model, with special attention to elaborating the value of its key conceptual innovation, the “formeme.” Last, we conclude with a discussion of what types of research commitments the overall approach does or does not imply, and point toward the more formal elaboration of the model that we undertake in “Towards a Model of Urban Evolution II” and “Towards a Model of Urban Evo-lution III.”

Published: October 2020

The purpose of this study is to identify and describe the impact and behavior of the community on post-disaster economic conditions in the city of Palu and to know the local government's public policies in handling these cases. Using qualitative methods with a case study approach, literature study, and secondary data processing from various social elements. In addition, data collection was carried out by interviewing informants who felt the direct impact of the earthquake, tsunami and liquefaction in Palu, Sigi and Donggala. The results showed that the post-disaster impact felt by the people of Palu City was generally in the "severe" classification. The socio-economic conditions of the people of Palu include several aspects, ranging from the geographical conditions that are in disaster-prone zones, to the extremely poor health conditions after the disaster. The conclusion of this research shows that the escalation of natural disasters in the city of Palu is considered quite large because it consists of three types of disasters, namely the Earthquake, Tsunami and Liquifation in the same time period. Palu City is the capital of the Province as well as the economic and administrative center of Central Sulawesi Province. Damage to warehousing infrastructure coupled with massive looting from unscrupulous people in logistics supply warehouses resulted in goods that were supposed to be distributed both to the city and the district finally unable to be implemented.Tujuan penelitian ini yaitu mengidentifikasi dan mendeskripsikan evaluasi dampak dan perilaku masyarakat terhadap kondisi perekonomian pasca bencana di kota Palu dan mengetahui kebijakan publik pemerintah setempat dalam menangani kasus tersebut. Menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan  studi kasus, studi literature, dan pengolahan data sekunder dari berbagai elemen sosial. Selain itu pengambilan data dilakukan dengan cara wawacara kepada narasumber yang merasakan dampak langsung dari bencana gempa,tsunami dan likuifaksi di Palu,Sigi dan Donggala. Hasil penelitian memperlihatkan bahwa dampak pasca bencana yang dirasakan oleh masyarakat Kota Palu secara umum berada pada klasifikasi “berat”. Kondisi sosial ekonomi masyarakat kota Palu meliputi beberapa aspek, mulai dari kondisi geografis yang berada pada zona rawan bencana, kondisi kesehatan sangat memprihatinkan pasca bencana. Kesimpulan penelitain ini menujukkan bahwa eskalasi bencana alam kota Palu dinilai cukup besar karena terdiri dari tiga macam bencana yaitu Gempa Bumi, Tsunami dan Liquifasi dalam kurun waktu sama. Kota Palu merupakan ibukota Provinsi sekaligus sebagai pusat ekonomi dan pemerintahan Provinsi Sulawesi Tengah. Rusaknya infrakstruktur pergudangan ditambah dengan adanya penjarahan yang massiv dari oknum masyarakat pada gudang-gudang suplai logistik mengakibatkan barang yang semestinya didistribusikan baik ke kota ataupun ke kabupaten akhirnya tidak dapat dilaksanakan.

As a multi-disciplinary study about irkil- (get startled), which combines findings from psychology, cognitive and corpus linguistics, the article aims to identify the lexical profile and cognitive structure of this pre-emotion through its concordances from the TNC. We employed model of extended lexical units, which involves identifying irkil’s typical collocates, colligates, semantic preferences and discourse prosodies. As part of its event schema, irkil- was found to have a linguistic schema to be filled by certain paradigmatic and syntagmatic choices. We found typical collocates of irkil- are determined by the experiencer’s pre-startle situation (engrossment/absence), sudden stimuli of acoustic, tactile, visual and cognitive natures, post-startle behavioural tendencies characterised by hypervigilance, and the ensuing emotion – fear, surprise or anger. The corpus data demonstrated the schematic nature of irkil- dictates specific lexical environments with collocates from certain semantic domains, which also affect its prosody. The study also allowed us to place the pre-emotion irkil- in the right place in the cognitive appraisal pattern for fear prepared by Scherer (2001).

The philosophy of law as a science aims to explain the importance of law for the formation of outlook, to consider the content and meaning of law for human, including him in the system of human values. In the philosophy of law, law appears as a way of being human.
The impact of the media on collective memory
Authors:   National University of Life and Environmental Scienсes of Ukraine, Kryvda N.Y. , Storozhuk S.V. ,   Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv
Published: October 2020

The article shows that the modern development of information and communication technologies, has opened wide opportunities for self-realization of the person and liberalization of social life, and therefore it is often considered as a completely positive phenomenon, with its development contributing to the growth of the human well-being level. These seemingly positive developments are accompanied by a number of threatening trends, where the organized amnesia is at the forefront. It manifests itself in blurring the line between remembering and forgetting due to media pressure. They are oriented toward creating collective ideas related to the processes of production and consumption. Large flows of tightly controlled and insignificant information for the development of society, forces out the socially significant collective memories into "waste" against the backdrop of programmed life. However, it is this that leads to the fact that a person is forced to live in unchanged and commonplace today, which, as shown in the work, significantly complicates individual and collective identification, condemning a person to loneliness even in society.

Helicobacter pilory en niños con enfermedad celiaca. Hallazgos epidemiológicos y clínicos
Authors: Couchonal Eduardo , Corrales Bernardita , Garcete Lidia
Published: October 2020

Introducción: En países en desarrollo se describen prevalencias de Helicobacter pylory (HP) de hasta 80%. Su impacto en los enfermos celiacos es controversial, pero existen indicios que podría agravar la condición celiaca. No se ha confirmado la asociación entre ambas. En nuestro medio, factores socio ambientales pudieran favorecer una elevada prevalencia del HP. Objetivos: Conocer la prevalencia de infección por HP en una población pediátrica portadora de enfermedad celiaca (EC). Materiales y Métodos: estudio observacional, retrospectivo de corte transversal revisando fichas clínicas y resultados biópsicos de pacientes sometidos a endoscopia digestiva alta por la sospecha clínica y laboratorial (marcadores serológicos positivos) de enfermedad celiaca en el Departamento de Gastroenterología del Servicio de Pediatría del Hospital de Clínicas de la Facultad de Ciencias Médicas.

Resultados: Se incluyeron en el estudio 50 muestras de biopsias gástricas y duodenales. Todos reunieron criterios histológicos de EC, en 9 pacientes (18%) se observó la presencia de HP. No se encontraron diferencias significativas en aspectos socioambientales y tampoco en cuanto a prevalencia de desnutrición y anemia comparando EC con y sin HP. Llamo la atención la presencia de distensión abdominal como dato significativo en los EC portadores de HP. La gastritis crónica activa fue el hallazgo histológico prevalente (89%) en los EC con HP+.

Conclusión: La prevalencia de HP en niños celiacos fue del 18%, inferior al esperado, aunque coincidente con un reporte nacional previo.

Authors: Domínguez Samaniego Sandra Violeta , Guzmán Vega Osvaldo
Published: October 2020

El Síndrome de Gorham Stout (GSS) es una enfermedad ósea de etiología desconocida, caracterizada por osteólisis, absorción idiopática y progresiva. Se presenta a cualquier edad, sin predilección por género o raza, puede afectar cualquier parte del esqueleto, el diagnóstico que se realiza es clínico, radiológico e histopatológico y por exclusión de otras afecciones comunes. El compromiso espinal es extremadamente raro y de mal pronóstico. También afecta las vísceras, una complicación común es el desarrollo de quilotórax, que ocurre en aproximadamente 20% de los pacientes y con lleva una alta tasa de mortalidad. No existen métodos de diagnósticos o tratamientos estándar para la enfermedad.

Plantea un desafío para los médicos a la hora de diagnosticar y tratar adecuadamente al paciente.

Se presenta el caso de una paciente de 5 años de edad, diagnosticada y manejada por un equipo multidisciplinario en el Hospital General Pediátrico (HGP), con revisión de la literatura.

Heat regime of Transcarpathian depression
Authors: Loktiev A. A.
Published: October 2020

A mathematical model of the temperature field was constructed and the temperature values for hypsometric levels of 1000, 2000 and 3000 m were calculated. for these hypsometric levels, as well as a map of the isothermal surface +50 ºC.

Working with this program involves the construction of digital models of the surface, ancillary operations with them and visualization of surfaces. The digital model of the surface has the form of values in the nodes of a rectangular regular grid, the dimension of which depends on the specific problem to be solved. The efficiency of the program of interpolation of two-dimensional functions is determined by the following aspects: a set of various interpolation methods; the ability of the researcher to control the various parameters of these methods; availability of means of an estimation of accuracy and reliability of the constructed surface; the opportunity to clarify the result based on the personal experience of the expert in view of various additional factors that could not be depicted as source data.

It is confirmed that the patterns of distribution of the natural thermal field in the upper part of the earth’s crust are due to a number of reasons, the main of which are the lithological composition of rocks, features of tectonic structure and the nature of groundwater movement. As a result of the analysis of graphic constructions, a sharp decrease in the subsoil warming towards the Carpathian folded structure was witnessed. It has been scientifically proven that the subsoil warming within the Mukachevo basin is much higher than within the Solotvyno basin. The confinement of geothermal anomalies to zones of intensive development of deep faults has been confirmed mathematically and experimentally. Based on this feature, it can be argued that the presence of positive geothermal anomalies is a criterion of gas bearing capacity for predicting deposits within local defiection objects.
