CULTURAL BASIS OF PEDAGOGICAL INTERACTION IN JAPANESE SCHOOLS
Authors:   K. D. Ushinsky Yaroslavl State Pedagogical University, Danilova L. N.
Published: November 2022

The phenomenon of pedagogical interaction is a basic one in education of any state. It means the forms of communication between those involved in educational work. Despite the universal nature of the phenomenon, such communication is country specific. This idea is confirmed by the example of Japan, where pedagogical interaction has its specific features. The paper aims to identify and analyze the features of pedagogical interaction system in Japanese schools in terms of the culturological approach. The study relies on the following methods: theoretical analysis of scientific and methodological literature on the issues of pedagogical process communication in Russian, Japanese, and English; content analysis; historical and pedagogical analysis of Japanese education; cultural analysis of interrelations in the traditions of Japanese communication; induction; comparison; and description. Results. The paper has highlighted the key features of communication between teachers and schoolchildren, which rest on such cultural factors as the ritual nature of Japanese culture (reflected in the nonverbal and verbal levels of communication), and the collective consciousness of the Japanese society. The specificity of pedagogical interaction etiology in the Japanese school has been determined, and theoretical foundations have been analyzed and illustrated with the examples from modern Japanese education. The collective approach to education, as a factor of pedagogical interaction in Japanese educational practice, has been compared with the theory of A. S. Makarenko. Discussion and conclusion. The highlighted features of pedagogical interaction are of a traditional stable nature. The modern school of Japan faces some attempts to liberalize and simplify them, but traditionalism is very resistant and is supported by mentality and cultural norms of the society. The teacher-controlled social interactions between the student and their microgroup and the class belong to the horizontal line of pedagogical interaction, which is more formalized verbally.

Published: November 2022

Introduction: Enhancement of the efficiency of the educational process is one of the priority objectives of educational institutions and new approaches are developed to accomplish it. In the chase for innovations, however, the internal environment of an educational organization, in which they are supposed to be implemented, is often overlooked. The study aims to identify the factors of the educational process and their influence on the effectiveness of mastering subjects and developing competencies. Materials and methods: The participants in the experiment were the first- and second-year students and the lecturers of the Department of Foreign Languages of Peter the Great Saint Petersburg Polytechnic University. The survey of the participants in the experiment was carried out remotely by means of Google Forms. The collected data were processed using analytical methods and tools (MO Excel, Google Forms). The results of the current examinations were compared with similar indicators of the 2018–2019 and 2019–2020 academic years, which were taken from the annual reports of the Department of Foreign Languages. Results: The majority of students (72.5%) and lecturers (63.6%) noted the positive influence of the experimental grading system in terms of psychological factor. However, the study revealed a contradiction in the opinions about changing attitudes towards examination. Discussion and Conclusions: Changes made to the algorithms of the assessment of students’ performance contributed to the identification of internal trends related to the distribution of efforts made to master the subject and revise for examinations, as well as to the general approach to work, and psychological comfort during examinations.

Background: Neem leaves (Azadirachta indica L.) have been used for many therapeutic purposes and medicinal applications. The extract of this plant has been used in both male and female genders as a traditional agent to prevent early pregnancy. In this study, the effect of this extract was investigated histologically and morphometrically on the germinal epithelia of the seminiferous tubules, epididymis and secretory epithelia of rats’ prostate glands. Methods: Twenty male albino rats were divided into four groups of five each and administered the extract at a concentration of zero, 100, 200 or 400 mg/kg of the body weight for 50 consecutive days. These rats were sacrificed and the male reproductive organs were removed, weighed and processed for routine histological examinations. The micrographs were analyzed and the structural changes in the epithelial lining and morphometric analyses were recorded, which included measuring the epithelial thickness in the seminiferous tubules, epididymis and secretory prostatic epithelia. Results: The extract was found to reduce the rats’ weight; decreased both the weight and dimension of the testes; reduced the number of germinal epithelial lining cells in the seminiferous tubules of the testes, the epididymal and prostatic secretory epithelial cells. Conclusion: The histological alterations were most significant in response to the treatment with the extract at 200 mg/kg of the rats with the greatest damages observed in the epithelial lining. The deleterious effects of the extract were found to be dose-dependent and this corroborates the use of this extract as a contraceptive in animal models, and potentially in humans.

Background: Studies suggest that sulfur may react with plants or monocellular organisms, such as fungi, to produce toxic agents. It has been theorized that sulfur enters cells and affects their respiration. This study reports on a phototroph development that leads to the diminution and/or production of sulfur and release of hydrogen sulfide from public ponds. Methods: This study was conducted in anoxic stabilization ponds at a dimension of 1×0.25×1 (m), with a hydraulic retention time of 6 days. The ponds’ water was tested during the dark and light cycles. The experiments were carried out by factorial design and measured three variables: volumetric organic loading, sulphate concentrations and temperature. Results: Cyanobacteria and Rhodobacter species were the most abundant phototroph cellular organisms. The mean value of total sulfur and un-ionized hydrogen sulfide concentration were 74 mg/L and 21 mg/L, respectively, at the volumetric organic loading of 100 g BOD5/m3 per day. The efficiencies of biochemical and chemical oxygen removal were 71.9% and 59.1%, respectively. The mean proliferation rate of photosynthetic sulfur bacteria was 3.4×106 cells/ml. Conclusion: photosynthetic sulfur bacteria significantly reduced the sulfur concentration generated in the ponds. The illumination of bright light enhanced the sulfur reduction by the photosynthetic sulfur bacteria in the wastewater of the anoxic stabilization ponds.

Background: Poisoning with carbon monoxide occurs occasionally worldwide, and the gold diagnostic standard is to measure carboxyhemoglobin level in the blood. This study investigated the correlation between carboxyhemoglobin and the end-tidal carbon dioxide levels in 50 patients with carbon monoxide poisoning. Methods: We recruited 50 volunteer patients who had been admitted to the Emergency Services of Istanbul Medipol University Hospital between January 2017 and January 2018. They had been diagnosed with carbon monoxide poisoning unrelated to fire accidents. The arterial and venous blood gases, and other blood and clinical parameters were also measured. The patients’ end-tidal carbon dioxide levels were measured from the nose and mouth air, using a Capnostream 20p bedside monitor. Pearson’s correlation analyses were performed and the results were compared with the end-tidal carbon dioxide, carboxyhemoglobin and oxygen saturation in the arterial and venous blood samples. Results: The Mean±SD age was 33.98±10.89 years. The Mean±SD arterial and venous carboxyhemoglobin values were 18.05±7.10 and 12.11±9.67, respectively. There were no statistically significant differences between the oxygen saturation, and the arterial and venous blood levels of carboxyhemoglobin (P=0.870, P=0.950), respectively. Also, no statistically significant correlations were found between the end-tidal carbon dioxide, and the arterial and venous carboxyhemoglobin levels (P=0.529, P=0.601), respectively. Conclusion: The results from the blood analyses demonstrated that there was no statistically significant difference between the end-tidal carbon dioxide and the carboxyhemoglobin levels in these patients who had been earlier diagnosed with carbon monoxide poisoning, unrelated to fire accidents.

Background: Studies suggest that herbal remedies may serve as functional anti-diabetic agents. This study investigated the therapeutic role of Calotropis procera aqueous-methanol root extract in hyperglycaemic and hepatopathy disorders in Wistar rats after exposure to alloxan. This compound destroys pancreatic β-cells and produce diabetes in experimental animals. Methods: Spectrophotometric methods were used to assay the antioxidants and biochemical parameters while histological examinations were employed to assess the structural changes in the harvested tissue under light microscopy. Results: The secondary metabolites were quantified by spectrochemistry methods. The extract was rich in flavonoids and low in terpenoids, and contained ursolic acid, lupeol and oleanolic acid. The extract’s strong anti-radical activity was due to its low IC50 values. The extract suppressed α-amylase more than α-glucosidase activity by 3.99%, and the blood glucose declined in the diabetic group by 64.25%. The malondialdehyde level was low in the treated group while it declined significantly in the normal group. The superoxide dismutase, catalase and glutathione levels were also low in the untreated versus the treated group. There were reduced activities of aspartate and alanine aminotransferases and alkaline phosphatase; however, the albumin and total protein levels increased mildly in the treated compared to the untreated group. The liver and pancreas histology revealed normal hepatocyte and β-islet architecture in the treated group as opposed to blood vessels congestion and β cells necrosis in the untreated group.

Published: November 2022

The Pangpang Bay Banyuwangi has a high potential for fisheries, processing and capturing fisheries, especially the order Perciformes of the families Carangidae, Lutjanidae and Serranidae. Grouper (Serranidae) is one of the high-economic marine fish commodities. However, the grouper fishing data in this area is only known as grouper without knowing the type of species. It is challenging to identify grouper species because groupers have a high degree of morphological similarity and colour variation. Therefore, molecular identification is necessary to determine the type of grouper in this region. This study aims to identify the grouper species that landed from Pangpang Bay based on DNA barcoding. In addition, phylogenetic tree analysis between grouper species (Serranidae) was carried out, and genetic distance analysis of the identified species was compared to the NCBI database. Morphological observations on groupers were carried out first, and fish meat samples were taken for experiments on molecular identification. The results of molecular-based identification revealed two grouper species Epinephelus coioides and Cephalopholis miniata. The results of phylogenetic tree reconstruction of the two groupers form a separate clade. The genetic distance between Epinephelus coioides ranged from 0.00-0.122, while the species of Cephalopholis miniata had a genetic distance of 0.00-0.002.

Published: November 2022

Introduction: Comorbidities are associated with the severity of COVID-19 and can lead to progress the disease and can cause death. Poor outcomes for COVID-19 have been related to patients with diabetes and hypertensives. In addition, the risk factors related to disease progression and cause death is age. However, this may be a direct result of the comorbidities itself or attributed to other unknown factors along with age. Purpose: The main goal of the current study is to find the effect of age and comorbidities on patients with COVID-19 intubation and outcome Methodology: This a single-centered, retrospective study carried out in Dubai hospital, Dubai Health Authority in United Arab Emirates from April 2020 until August 2020. A purposive sampling technique of 660 patients’ with COVID-19 met the inclusion criteria were included in this study. Result: The sample of the study consisted of 660 patients with COVID-19 in Dubai hospital. comorbidity does not affect patient’s intubation as p-value= 0.628. On the other hand, Exact fisher test show the there is significant statistically result between comorbidity and patient’s outcome p-value= 0.014. In terms of association between Age and patient’s with CVOID-19 intubation and outcome. The results were statistically significant on as p-value=0.006 and 0.003 retrospectively. number of death patients who were intubated with HTN and DM was higher 33 (60.0%) compared to patients with HTN 10 (71.4%), and DM 7 (31.8%). Age category was important factor on patient with COVID-19 outcome. Age category was important factor on patient with COVID-19 outcome. Death number among age category (40-49) and who were intubated 28 (51.9%). On the other hand, the lowest death number among intubated patients with COVID-19 were among 20-29 age category. Conclusion: There are many risk factors associated with greater risk of intubation and even death. The present study found that older age was associated with patients’ intubation and death, most likely because of less rigorous immune response. Moreover, Diabetic and hypertension were strong risk factors for invasive ventilatory support among COVID-19 patients and even increase the risk for death. Recommendation: heath care providers prioritize patients with chronic disease and diagnose them early and monitored closely to improve clinical outcome. Providing this information to clinicians could potentially be used to guide patient care. patients with comorbidities should take all necessary precautions to avoid getting infected with SARS CoV- 2, as they usually have the worst prognosis.

Barrett’s Oesophagus in 2016
Authors: Ahmed Monjur
Published: November 2022

Barrett’s oesophagus (BO) is one of the most important complications of gastro-oesophageal reflux disease as it may progress to oesophageal adenocarcinoma. There is currently a rising incidence of BO. The pathogenesis of BO is not well-understood although genetic and environmental factors play significant roles. BO can be dysplastic or non-dysplastic. In the case of dysplastic BO, two pathologists’ opinions are required. As patients with BO can be entirely asymptomatic, it is difficult to screen this population group. Currently, screening is recommended only for white males with certain risk factors according to American College of Gastroenterology (ACG) guidelines in the USA. The extent of BO can be reliably measured using the Prague classification. Patients with non-dysplastic BO should have surveillance endoscopy every 3–5 years, whereas dysplastic BO should be ablated endoscopically. Any nodule in the BO should be removed by endoscopic mucosal resection. Patients with BO should be on life-long acid-suppressant therapy. Non-invasive techniques such as the Cytosponge are being investigated as an alternative to endoscopy for BO screening.
Nutritional Deficiency After Sleeve Gastrectomy: A Comprehensive Literature Review
Authors: Hany Emile Sameh , Elfeki Hossam
Published: November 2022

Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) has been recognised as an effective procedure for the treatment of morbid obesity and associated comorbidities; however, the shortcomings of SG, such as staple line leak, haemorrhage, vomiting, and weight regain, have also been well-reported. An underestimated adverse effect of SG is nutritional deficiency (ND). While ND is a well-known complication of malabsorptive bariatric procedures, it can still occur after restrictive operations, including SG, yet its incidence and mechanism are still unclear. In an attempt to learn about the incidence and type of ND after SG we performed an organised literature search of electronic databases searching for articles that assessed the incidence and type of ND after SG. The median incidence of iron and zinc deficiency after SG was 8.8% and 18.8%, respectively. The majority of patients already had vitamin D deficiency preoperatively, with a median of 35.5% of patients still demonstrating vitamin D deficiency postoperatively. Comparing ND before and after SG, the incidence of iron and vitamin D deficiency declined postoperatively; in contrast, there was a tangible increase in the incidence of vitamin B1, B6, B12, and calcium deficiency. Vitamin B1 and B12 deficiencies were recorded in a median of 10.0% and 11.7% of patients, respectively, and were associated with neurologic manifestations in <1% of patients. Prevention of ND after SG requires proper recognition and correction of preoperative ND with immediate supplementation of trace elements and vitamins postoperatively, in addition to long follow-up.
Процесуальна аналогія в господарському судочинстві

Published: November 2022

Стаття присвячена з’ясуванню передумов і причин появи процесуальної аналогії в господарському судочинстві загалом та практиці Касаційного господарського суду у складі Верховного Суду зокрема. Дослідження процесуальної аналогії здійснено саме в історичному контексті розвитку господарського процесуального законодавства, щоб можна було відслідкувати, як неприпустиме раніше явище ставало ніби прийнятним, адже процесуальна аналогія за час дії попередніх редакцій Господарського процесуального кодексу України вважалася настільки недозволенною, що навіть очевидні випадки, коли вона, здавалось, могла би бути виправданою, заборонялися. Процесуальна аналогія в господарському процесуальному законодавстві прямо не заборонена, але й законодавчих підстав її застосувати в суддів господарських судів немає. Проте це не заважало її практикувати, коли це потрібно самим суддям, а не учасникам господарських справ. Спроби застосування процесуальної аналогії повинні сприйматися представниками законодавчої влади як загроза господарській процесуальній формі. Законодавчій владі не варто втручатися в спроби неправильного тлумачення процесуальних норм окремими суддями. Питання правомірності застосування процесуальної аналогії господарськими судами не є більш визначеним, ніж в судах інших юрисдикцій. Майбутнє процесуальної аналогії має бути вирішене виключно судовою владою, а саме Великою Палатою Верховного Суду, оскільки випадки помилкового тлумачення відповідних процесуальних норм є спільними як для господарського, так й адміністративного або цивільного судочинства. Згадано й про позитивне явище в сучасному господарському судочинстві, а саме аналогію судової практики. Господарські суди все частіше стали враховувати судову практику судів інших юрисдикцій і далі намагаються її наслідувати, якщо така судова практика є релевантною у світлі обставин конкретної справи.

Increasing the elasticity of meatballs can be done by adding a thickening agent in the manufacture of meatballs including chicken meatballs with natural or artificial ingredients. The research aims to produce processed meat products with better quality and to evaluate consumer preference for chicken meatballs with flour as a thickener so that they are commercially available through yield and organoleptic tests. This study used a completely randomized design with a 3x3 factorial pattern with 4 replications for the yield test and 10 repetitions for the meatball organoleptic test. The first factor is the thickening agent of agar flour nutrijel, swallow globe, and rajawali. While the second factor is the level of the thickening agent 3%, 4%, and 5%. Research variables include yield value and organoleptic quality (color, aroma, texture, and taste). The results showed that the addition of flour thickening agent had a significant effect (P<0.05) on the yield value, and had an insignificant effect (P>0.05) on the organoleptic test of chicken meatballs. Where the best type and level of addition of agar flour on the yield value is found in the type of flour swallow globe agar with a level of 5%.
