Abstract The aim of this study was to evaluate environmental contamination by helminth eggs with zoonotic potential that were found in dog feces in the vicinity of elementary schools. Seventy-nine samples of dog feces were collected from 28 municipal schools located in five neighborhoods in Pelotas, Rio Grande do Sul (RS), Brazil. The samples were processed using the Willis-Mollay technique and analyzed using an optical microscope (40X), to identify any parasite eggs present. All neighborhoods were positive and 74.7% of the samples exhibited one or more helminth genera. The agent with the highest prevalence was Ancylostoma spp. (93.2%), followed by Trichuris spp. (18.6%), Toxocara spp. (11.9%) and Toxascaris (1.7%). These data show that there is a need for greater care towards controlling these helminths with zoonotic potential, including responsible pet ownership and daily activities to clean and collect dog feces in the vicinity of schools, because these are places where children play and study.

Chinas Public Organizations as Partners of the Russian Federation in Implementing the State Policy of Assistance to Compatriots Abroad: Historical Experience of Diaspores and New Trends
Authors: Sevostyanova Yelena
Published: February 2020

The article examines the main activity directions of non-governmental organizations in China in terms of the retrospective, general trends in the present-day period and specificity of this activity in PRC and the trans-border territories of the Russian Federation. Each of the three periods of existence of the public organizations of compatriots – pre-revolutionary, Soviet and post-Soviet — has both common traits and their specificity. The first voluntary organizations for support of Russian compatriots in China appeared in terms of public initiative in early XX century. As long as a system of state support of those migrated was absent in China, the emigrants created public organizations that assisted the compatriots materially and spiritually. Compatriots’ organizations arranged «Days of Russian Culture», supported opening and existence of schools and libraries, created a Russian-speaking media space. The break-up of the USSR stimulated not only the migration processes but also consolidation of the Russian diaspores around the world, appearance of new forms of organizing the compatriots living in various countries. In the modern period the state participates actively in integrating activities of public compatriots’ organizations in the far abroad because it comprehends that these organizations scattered around the whole world are unable to fully perform defense of the compatriots’ interests, to support the Russian-speaking mass media, to preserve affiliation with the Russian culture, traditions and the language. Beginning from early 2000, the Russian federation and the People’s Republic of China have been developing inter-governmental cooperation in the + sphere of assistance to compatriots, counteraction to illegal migrations. Intensification of regional cooperations has become a new direction. In Zabaikalye Territory, the cooperation with public organizations of Russian compatriots in China is carried out by the territorial Ministry of International Cooperation and Foreign Connections. The article states major directions and forms of work with Russian compatriots in China at the regional level. It makes a conclusion that the Russian Federation places great emphasis to strengthening of partner cooperation of compatriots with Russia, the government tries along with the public to determine new and most prospective direction of activities. In China, the integration of business community, integration of youth organizations can be referred to such directions.
Aktif yeşil alan olanaklarının verimlilik açısından değerlendirilmesi: Çanakkale örneği
Authors: ALKAN Yavuz
Published: February 2020

Bu çalışma ile son yıllarda hızla değişen ve gelişen Çanakkale kentsel alanındaki mevcut aktif yeşil alanlardan mahalle parkı, çocuk oyun alanı ve spor alanı türlerinin verimlilikleri araştırılmıştır. Bunun için merkez mahalleler kapsamında nüfus grupları ve sayıları ile her mahalle için belirlenen mahalle parkı, çocuk oyun alanı ve spor alanı kullanım alanları büyüklük ve kullanıcıya uzaklık gibi niceliklerle ilişkilendirilmiştir. Bu kapsamda merkez mahallelerin yeşil alan endeks değerlerinin 16.46 ile 100; verimlilik yeşil alan değerlerinin ise 45.32 ile 65.62 arasında dağılım gösterdiği tespit edilmiştir. Yeşil alan endeks değeri 100 olan Namık Kemal Mahallesi’nin verimlilik yeşil alan değeri 51.25’a gerilemiştir. Bunun gibi Barbaros (56.41) ve Esenler Mahallesi’nin (65.62) verimlilik yeşil alan endeks değerleri de gerilemiştir. Bunun tersine, yeşil alan endeks değerleri 44.51, 18.07, 43.18, 16.46 olan aynı sırayla Cevatpaşa, Kemalpaşa, İsmetpaşa ve Fevzipaşa Mahallelerinin verimlilik yeşil alan değerlerinin ise, 54.22, 45.55 ve 52.20, 45.32 olarak arttıkları görülmüştür. Bu durum, bu mahallelerdeki nüfusun, rekreasyonel gereksinimlerini diğer mahallelerdeki yeşil alan olanaklarıyla karşıladıklarını göstermektedir. Dolayısıyla, dengeli dağılıma sahip olmayan yeşil alanların kent genelinde yararlanma yüzdeleri, yeşil alan verimlilik değeri azalan yönde ise fazla, artan yönde ise az olmaktadır. Buradan bir kentteki bölgesel yeşil alanların sayı, alan ve olanaklar çerçevesinde fazla olmalarının verimlilikle ilişkilendirilemeyeceği sonucu çıkmaktadır. Sonuç olarak kent dokusunda önemli bir yere sahip olan aktif yeşil alan türlerinin planlanmasında nüfus grupları ve gereksinimlerine bağlı kalınması öncelikli olmalıdır.
ERKEN DÖNEM SOVYET PROPAGANDASI: SİNEMA, SERAMİK VE AFİŞ

Birmingham Kültürel Çalışmalar Okulu'nun kurucularından Raymond Williams (1921 – 1988) sadece Britanya'da değil pek çok farklı ülkede etkili bir düşünür ve toplumsal eleştirmen olarak tanınmaktadır. Williams’a ait kapsamlı çalışmalar; sosyal karşıtlıklar, çevrebilim ve iletişim konuları başlığı altında odaklanmaktadır. Bu çalışma; Williams’ın “Advertising: The Magic System in Problems in Materialism and Culture” adlı çalışmasında dikkat çekici bir araç olarak tanımladığı reklam olgusu üzerine yazdığı kısa pasajdan beslenmektedir. Kaleme aldığı pasajda reklam olgusunu kapitalist toplumların resmi sanatı olarak kavrayan yazarın bakış açısını; yirminci yüzyılın politik, ekonomik ve kültürel koşullarını dikkate alarak SSCB (Sovyet Sosyalist Cumhuriyetler Birliği) deneyimi üzerinden tartışmayı amaçlamaktadır. Buna göre; kapitalist toplum ve ekonomik örgütlenmelere özgü bir tür tamamlayıcı olarak kavranan reklam olgusu; tarihsel determinist bakış açısına göre kapitalist olmayan ekonomik örgütlenme ve toplumlarda yaşaması mümkün değildir. Bu yaklaşım, reklam olgusunun başka amaç ve biçimlerde olsa da kapitalist olmayan toplum ve ekonomik örgütlenmelerdeki olası varlığını tartışmaya açık ve incelenmesi gereken bir mesele haline getirmektedir. Bu meseleye odaklanan çalışma; literatür taraması ve somut verilerden faydalanarak alana katkı koymaya yönelik akademik bir çaba olarak görülebilir. Çalışmada reklam olgusu kuramsal düzeyde ele alındığı kadar seçili örnekler üzerinden vakıa analizi yoluyla somutlaştırılmaya çalışılmaktadır. Böylece reklam, kamusal tanıtım ya da propaganda olguları; yirminci yüzyılın önemli bir kısmında siyasal varlık gösteren ve bu varlığını kapitalist üretim ve dağıtım ağı dışında kalacak şekilde inşa ve tarif eden SSCB deneyimi üzerinden tartışılmaktadır. Yaklaşık bir asır süren bir deneyimi sınırlamak ve bu sayede daha fazla derinleşebilmek maksadıyla SSCB’nin 1917 – 1925 yılları arasını kapsayan ve çalışmada erken dönem kamusal tanıtım çalışmaları olarak tarif edilen toplam üç üretim alanı; “sinema temsili, bilgilendirme afişleri ve propaganda maksadıyla kullanılan seramik objeler” incelenmiştir.

Bu araştırmanın amacı, genç tüketicilerin pazarı şekillendiren davranışlar gösterip göstermemesine göre reklama yönelik şüphe eğilimlerinde anlamlı bir farklılığın olup olmadığının, varsa farklılıkların analiz edilmesidir. Buna göre 1157 kişilik bir tüketici grubuna kolayda ve amaçlı örnekleme yöntemi ile ulaşılarak hazırlanan anketin cevaplandırılması istenmiştir. Örneklem pazarı şekillendiren davranış gösterip göstermeme durumuna göre aktivistler, ılımlılar ve hareketsizler olarak üç gruba ayrılmıştır. Yapılan tek yönlü varyans analizi sonucunda, aktivistler ile hareketsizler arasında anlamlı farklılık tespit edilmiş ve bunun üzerine aktivistler için Reklama Yönelik Şüphe Ölçeği’nin doğrulayıcı faktör analizi gerçekleştirilmiştir. Analize göre, aktivistler için ölçek sadece 6 ifadeden oluşmaktadır. Ayrıca, “Aktivistler için Reklama Yönelik Şüphe Ölçeği”nin nomolojik geçerlilik testinde ise, literatüre uygun olarak, reklama yönelik şüphe eğiliminin kurumsal sosyal ve çevresel sorumluluk imajını pozitif yönlü etkilediği tespit edilmiştir.

Savaş, anarşizm, kaos adına ne denirse densin ulusal ve uluslararası düzensizliğe, kuralsızlığa, umutsuzluğa ve mutsuzluğa sebep olur. Böylesi bir duruma son vermek için ulusal veya uluslararası bir takım sözleşmeler, anlaşmalar ve düzenlemeler yapılır. Tıpkı Modern dönem toplumsal sözleşmecilerden olan Machiavelli, Rousseau ve Locke gibi düşünürlerin ulusal düzeyde kargaşayı nihayete erdirmek üzere önerdikleri toplumsal düzen gibidir. Burada dikkate alınması gereken husus; düşünürlerin, düzenin sağlanması için sözleşmeye toplumun ekseriyetinin katılımı noktasında ortak bir argüman geliştirmiş olmalarıdır. İşte uluslararası düzeyde gerçekleştirilmesi düşünülen örgütlerin de, tüm aktörlerin veyahut ekseriyetinin katılımının sağlandığı, ortak çıkarlar ve değerler üzerine kurulan heterojen bir toplumsal yapı arz etmesi beklenir. Tam bu noktada uluslararası bir örgüt olarak Milletler Cemiyeti’nin ve Birleşmiş Milletler’in mütecanis bir yapıya düşmeden uluslararası bir toplum olarak değerlendirilip değerlendirilemeyeceği önem kazanmaktadır. Bu gerekçeyle Birinci Dünya Savaşından sonra barışın ve nizamın tesisini sağlayacak bir sistem olarak kurulmuş olan Milletler Cemiyeti’nin ve İkinci Dünya Savaşı sonrasında dünyada güveni ve barışı tesis etmek için büyük devletler öncülüğünde kurulmuş olan Birleşmiş Milletler’in uluslararası bir toplum olup olmadığı tartışması çalışmamızın amacını oluşturmuştur. Bu perspektifle ilk olarak, Millet Cemiyeti’nin ve Birleşmiş Milletler’in kuruluş sürecine değinilmiştir. İkinci olarak, İngiliz Okulu ve inşacılık teorisi irdelenmiştir. Son olarak ise, İngiliz Okulu üzerinden Millet Cemiyeti ve İnşacılık teorisinin anahtar kavramları ile de Birleşmiş Milletler, uluslararası toplum bağlamında tartışılmaya çalışılmıştır. Çalışmada tarihsel sosyoloji, içerik analizi ve karşılaştırmalı analiz olarak birden fazla yöntem kullanılmıştır.
Art Games: Acción Lúdica Reflexiva
Authors: Urroz Ana
Published: February 2020

The role of games in human social configuration has been widely researched: since the 1930s by Johan Huizinga and, later by Roger Callois in the 1950s and other authors till our days. As soon as computer science became a regular and useful tool for human endeavour, videogames appeared, playful devices created and mediated by digital technology. Ever since a group of MIT students created Spacewar in 1962, electronic gaming has been responsible for a development that has expanded in forms, technologies and purposes. Socially, videogames constitute a popular product which is used on a massive scale and a strong industry in continuous development. In addition, there is a great diversity of genres and platforms for serious games: from educational ones and those aimed at taking care of our health or our cognitive capacity, to strategy games which purpose is to train combat personnel or to improve productivity. In this article we will focus on the discursive and operative capabilities that net art pioneers saw in videogames, and how those operate in the art world and in social activism. We will analyse what are the traits that establish them in this scope of action, and some strategies they utilise.
Transformation of visual practices in the context of primary urbanization
Authors:   Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, Kyiv, Ukraine, Pavlova O. Y.
Published: February 2020

The article is devoted to the study of the process of primary urbanization as a context of transformation of visual practices. This implies a long- term perspective of studying the city as a mediator of the great tradition. Folk culture in the process of formation of civilization was differentiated into rural and urban one. The city has become a space for formation of new cultural strategies: comprehension, ordering and management. This required changes in the anthropological model. If visual practices of small traditions were included in the de-differentiated structure of sensual orientations of small culture, the big tradition of urban culture supposed inclusion in the space through contemplation. Thus, the spectacle has received the function of subordinate management, and visual practices have been pulled out of the substratum of human capabilities and received a privileged status in the hierarchy of sensual orientations. For this perspective, methodologically significant is the understanding of the opposition of the city as a village/city, which was formulated as the basic American sociologist R. Sennett. It was he who edited the anthology of the classic essay on urban culture, which offered a classification of the German and Chicago Schools of Urban Studies. This classification itself has become widely recognized and does not cause controversy. Our work will focus on this body of work, which not all are known to domestic researchers of the city. Particularly basic in this context will be the work of representatives of the Chicago School of R. Redfield and M. Singler. The purpose of the article is to study the transformations of visual practices in the process of primary urbanization. The dominant of visual practices of urban space is torn from the unity of sensory orientations of folk culture with its ritualized way of self- government and becomes a way of ordering and managing in the situation of primary urbanization as the basic process of formation of civilization in general. In the process of primary urbanization, the city becomes a medium between: governors and subordinates, man and state, culture (as a small tradition) and civilization (as a large tradition).

Published: February 2020

Goal. To carry out socio-philosophical conceptualization of the phenomenon of information culture and cyberculture as the newest factors that determine the development of modern society and is characterized by intensification of processes of informatization and technologization. Theoretical basis. The authors have proved that the concepts of information culture and cyberculture are united in the sense of theoretical generalizations about understanding the essence of modern society (mass, virtual, global, information) and so on. It is substantiated that the main condition and consequence of the development of modern society is the emergence of information culture and cyberculture, which serve as the unity of value models of technical, information and technological levels of civilization, which simultaneously forms a new type of person, which is realized in two dimensions – real (physical, social) and virtual. Scientific novelty. It is substantiated that modern society is in a state of radical large-scale, systemic transformations, the consequence of which is a new stage of development of the relation "man – world", "man – society", "man – man". According to the authors, the determining factor is the development of information culture and cyberculture, which characterize the latest achievements in the development of modern science, technology, education. Conclusions. Progressive achievements of the technosphere of the late 20-th – early 21-st century created new conditions for the development of the society and a man. These advances have both complicated and simplified social connections and relationships. This is how e-economy, e-education, e-government, e-tourism, and others have come into being and evolve. At the same time, culture is gaining a new dimension of development. It is transferred to the sphere of the Internet, network communities and is characterized as an information culture, cyberculture, forming a qualitatively new outlook with relevant values, norms, social roles and behaviors of modern man.

Published: February 2020

The article presents a case of the use of medicamentous technique redicing blood loss with terlipressin a long-acting synthetic analogue of antidiuretic hormone. This pharmaceutical drug causes constrictin of arterioles, veins and venules, which leads to the reduction of blood flow in the visceral organs and pressure reduction in the portal system. In our federal institution of healthcare, a patient with chronic pancreatitis complicated by segmentary portal hypertension and portal cavernoma underwent proximal resection of pancreatic head by C.Fray, placing of a longitudinal pancreatojejunoanastomosis and azigoportal disconnection. The description of this case is aimed at drawing attention to relatively new and developing methods of medicamentous technique redicing blood loss, which in combination with surgical methods allows reducing perioperative blood loss in upper abdominal surgeries.

Authors: Nabiev T M , Melikova Sh Y
Published: February 2020

Brain abnormalities can cause resistant epileptic seizures and significant neurological deficits. In this article we present the clinical cases of cerebral hemiatrophy (DykeDavidoffMasson syndrome) and polymicrogyria with adescription of their classical clinical features and radiological and electrophysiological characteristics. The classical signs of DykeDavidoffMasson syndrome in neuroimaging are cerebral hemiatrophy, calvarial thickening, and hyperpneumatization of the frontal sinuses. Polymycrogyria characterized by a gross defect of the cortex with multiple small superficial gyri can manifest as hemi- or tetraparesis, focal epilepsy, and developmental delay. Further study of brain abnormalities, obtaining high-quality images with neuroimaging and their careful analysis can help improve the efficiency of diagnosis and treatment of patients with this pathology.
The ordinal scale of X-ray assessment of venous congestion in chronic heart failure
Authors: Kolyadich M I
Published: February 2020

Aim. To develop an ordinal scale for x-ray assessment of venous congestion in chronic heart failure based on the results of the standard assessment of chest radiographs.

Methods. The ordinal assessment on the scale consists of a numerical expression of four radiological symptoms: cardiomegaly, pleural effusion, and changes in the pulmonary pattern due to vascular and interstitial components. The presence of each of these symptoms corresponds to a score of 1 point. In the result, ordinal X-ray assessment varies from 0 to 4 points. Simultaneously objective clinical, instrumental and laboratory measures of the severity of congestive heart failure were recorded in patients.

Results. Cardiomegaly, the presence of pleural effusion and changes in the pulmonary pattern due to vascular and interstitial components was numerically estimated according to the standard assessment of chest X-rays for the scale of radiological assessment of venous congestion. Correlation between numerical estimates of the ordinal scale and objective clinical, instrumental and laboratory measures of venous stasis in the sample of 225 patients showed the validity of the assessment. The statistically significant direct relationships between value of the ordinal scale for X-ray assessment of venous congestion with functional class and stage of chronic heart failure, the level of NT-terminal fragment of brain natriuretic peptide, the frequency of respiratory movements, the scale of clinical state, the index of the left atrium, the systolic pressure in the pulmonary artery, as well as an inverse dependence with the 6-minute walk test values were proved. Sufficient internal consistency of the ordinal scale was demonstrated (Cronbach's alpha 0.73). We also found that the scale demonstrated predictive informativeness, which was manifested by a significant increase in the mortality of patients with chronic heart failure in cases where the scale values increase to 2.

Conclusion. The proposed ordinal scale for x-ray assessment of venous congestion has sufficient reliability (internal consistency) for practical application, as well as criteria and prognostic validity; the scale can be considered as a simple, accessible and informative addition to the standard examination of polymorbid patients with chronic heart failure, which may be useful for advanced assessment of the patient's condition and risk of death within the next year.

Aim. To assess of adaptive immunity of the duodenal mucosa in neonates with sepsis.

Methods. A study of duodenal biopsy specimens obtained during duodenoscopy from neonates who had signs of suspected ulcerative lesions of the digestive tract. Five of them were obtained from infants with clinical and laboratory signs of neonatal sepsis (NS), two from infants without sepsis (comparison group). Immunohistochemical staining was performed using the Novolink Polymer Detection System imaging system with commercial antibodies to CD4, CD8, CD20 and Bcl-2, and the CSAII Biotin-free Tyramide Signal Amplification System imaging system with commercial antibodies to caspase-3 and caspase-9 in accordance with the manufacturers instructions.

Results. It was found that the number of CD4+ T-lymphocytes of the duodenal mucosa in neonatal sepsis group in 4 of 5 infants did not differ from the control group. The number of CD8+ lymphocytes in neonates with sepsis in 3 of 5 cases was even higher than in the control group. The number of CD20+ B-lymphocytes in 4 infants with sepsis was significantly less compared with the control. Activation of apoptosis in mucosal cells was detected, which was manifested by a large number of caspase-3-positive cells (in 4 of 5 cases) in comparison with the control group. The number of caspase-9-positive cells in the studied groups was almost equal. A substantial decrease in the number of Bcl-2-positive mucosal cells in all 5 infants with sepsis was noted as compared with the control indicators.

Conclusion. The study revealed moderate immunosuppression in the duodenal mucosa in neonates with sepsis, manifested by low values of CD20+ B-lymphocytes in the absence of a significant decrease in the number of CD4+ and CD8+ T-lymphocytes. The detected moderate activation of apoptosis processes against the background of reduced antiapoptotic potential creates the conditions for a possible translocation of the intestinal microbiota into the bloodstream.
Cardiovascular events and mortality in the long term in young patients with acute disorders of ­cerebral circulation
Authors: Shamkina A R , Galeeva Sh Sh
Published: February 2020

This review presents the results of various studies on the problem of cardiovascular events and the risk of their development as well as long-term mortality in young patients with cerebrovascular accidents or strokes. In recent decades, there has been a tendency to rejuvenation of cerebrovascular diseases often leading to fatal outcomes. At present, the question of the course of stroke in the acute stage of the disease is most studied. Meanwhile, the study of late, including long-term (5years or more) results of the stroke is important for planning the organization of medical care using the principles of evidence-based medicine. The long-term prognosis for young patients who underwent strokes is of particular interest from a medical and social point of view due to the increase of life expectancy and basic responsibilities at a difficult stage of life. According to a meta-analysis carried out on the results of prospective studies, it was found that the prognosis of a young stroke is not as favorable as it was previously thought with respect to the development of cardiovascular diseases or psychosocial consequences as well as mortality. It was shown that the risk of death among young patients aged 18 to 49years who survived a 30-day primary stroke, compared to the risk of death in the general population, remained increased even after 15years. However, this issue remains still insufficiently studied. Further research is needed in this area.

The article is devoted to the study of the effectiveness of training graduates of medical universities when a trained student is included in the educational process, able to fulfill the role of a mentor. All over the world, the number of students is increasing in medical universities every year, but there is no equivalent increase in the teaching staff. One of the potential methods of overcoming the above problems is the use of trained mentors from among peer students. This method was used when students practiced practical skills in a simulation center in anticipation of primary accreditation. The purpose of the study is to optimize the preparation of students for a practical exam in a simulation environment with the help of a student mentor. Of the 468 students of the medical faculty of the North-Western State Medical University named after I.I. Mechnikov, studying in the VI year, was chosen by their colleague, who was trained at the center of simulation technology. A sample of 100 graduates was randomly generated, which were randomized into two groups of 50 people each (the main group in which the training was conducted with the participation of a mentor student and a control group trained under the guidance of teachers from one of the university departments). The most difficult for students was the station simulating the provision of emergency medical care (EMF). The evaluation checklist for checking the quality of the tasks at this station includes 233 points that must be implemented when providing EMF in 13 different situations requiring this type of medical care. To improve the quality of mastering practical skills, a training scheme was developed that allows you to learn the algorithm of actions when providing EMF. A basic assessment of students knowledge and skills revealed a low level of knowledge of diagnostic techniques and emergency assistance. Using the developed training scheme with the help of a student mentor has significantly increased the level of knowledge and practical skills in the provision of EMF. The quality of training in the main group did not significantly differ in most of the assessed parameters from the control group in which classes were held with the teacher. Statistical analysis of the data was performed using the SPSS 20.0 program (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA).

Published: February 2020

Due to the low detectability of atrial fibrillation (AF), more attention is paid to AF screening. Screening procedure requires new diagnostic devices that allow immediate assessment of heart activity. One such portable device is the MyDyagnostick 1001R.
The aim. Сomparison of the clinical effectiveness of screening in people who participated in the preventive health examinations and in patients with AF risk factors admitted to the City geriatric medical hospital.
Materials and methods. 101 patients hospitalized to City geriatric medical center were included using the method of continuous selection. Another sample of patients included 102 volunteers who participated in a preventive health examinations organized by the City center for medical prevention in St. Petersburg (convenience sample). Heart activity was registered with portable device MyDyagnostick 1001R.
Results. AF was diagnosed in 25 (24.8%) patients from geriatric medical center were. Of these, 12 patients were not suspected of having AF. Among the volunteers undergoing a routine examination, AF was found in 5 people, 3 of whom had paroxysmal AF in anamnesis.
Conclusions. In a population of individuals with risk factors, AF was detected in 24.8% of cases; in 48%, AF was not previously detected using standard registration methods, which is in favor of periodic screening of AF in a population with risk factors for its development. In the population of participants of preventive health examinations, AF was found in 5 people, which indicates a low detectability of AF not at risk. Significant signs indicating possible AF were a feeling of palpitations and a history of stroke, which may confirm the need for screening for AF of persons with such symptoms.
In screening purposes portable device MyDyagnostick 1001R may be used effectively.

Published: February 2020

Following the 2019 Ridgecrest, California, earthquake sequence, we compiled ground-motion records from multiple data centers and processed these records using newly developed ground-motion processing software that performs quality assurance checks, performs standard time series processing steps, and computes a wide range of ground-motion metrics. In addition, we compute station and waveform metrics such as the time-averaged shear-wave velocity to 30 m depth (VS30), finite-rupture distances, and spectral accelerations. This data set includes 22,708 records from 133 events from 4 July 2019 (UTC) to 18 October 2019 with a magnitude range from 3.6 to 7.1. We expect that the rapid collection and dissemination of this information will facilitate detailed studies of these ground motions. In this article, we describe the data selection, processing steps, and how to access the data.

Tomando a escola como um espaço para a experimentação e a arte como um dispositivo para a vontade de criação, o presente artigo tem como objetivo analisar os efeitos da arte nas práticas educativas e nos processos de ensino e de aprendizagem. O delineamento metodológico da investigação é de cunho qualitativo e ocorreu pela realização de entrevistas com duas gestoras e quatro docentes de duas escolas públicas do Vale do Taquari, no Estado do Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil. De acordo com as percepções dos participantes da pesquisa, por meio de Análise Textual Discursiva, foram elaboradas três categorias. A primeira, “Fazer escola: docência inventiva”, apresenta a docência como principal articulador entre práticas artísticas e práticas educativas. A segunda, “A prática de marchar em direção ao skholé”, discorre acerca das imposições atribuídas ao espaço escolar e relata movimentações peculiares que a arte pode produzir em meio aos processos de ensino e de aprendizagem. A última, “Efeitos da arte: sons de experimentação”, expressa as reverberações da arte para a formação do estudante, abordando sua relação com a matéria escolar, com a “ex-posição” e com a experiência. Ressalta-se, ao final, que despertar a atenção para a arte na escola é uma atitude que permite pensar a educação em toda sua potencialidade de transformação. Palavras-chave: Práticas Educativas. Práticas Artísticas. Docência. Experimentação. Abstract Taking school as space for experimentation and art as a device for the will to create, this article aims to analyze the effects of art on educational practices and on the teaching and learning processes. The methodological design of the research is qualitative and has been carried out through interviews with two principals and four teachers from two public schools in the Taquari Valley, in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. According to the perceptions of the participants, through Discursive Textual Analysis, three categories were elaborated. The first, “Doing school: inventive teaching”, presents teaching as the main articulator between artistic practices and educational practices. The second, “The practice of marching towards the skholé”, discusses the impositions attributed to the school space and reports peculiar movements that art can produce in the process of teaching and learning. The last one, “Effects of Art: Sounds of Experimentation”, expresses the reverberations of art for the formation of the students, approaching its relation with the school subject, with “ex-position” and with the experience. In the end, it is noteworthy that arousing attention to art in school is an attitude that allows one to think about education in all its potential for transformation. Keywords: Educational Practices.

ABSTRAK. Penelitian bertujuan untuk mengetahui fermentabilitas dan kecernaan ransum domba yang mengandung limbah roti. Penelitian menggunakan rancangan acak lengkap dengan lima macam ransum perlakuan yang terdiri atas 40% rumput lapangan dan 60% konsentrat yang masing-masing mengandung limbah roti sebanyak 0 (kontrol), 10, 20, 30, dan 40%. Masing-masing perlakuan diulang sebanyak 4 kali dan data yang terkumpul dianalisis dengan analisis sidik ragam dan dilanjutkan dengan uji Duncan. Ransum perlakuan dievaluasi secara in vitro. Peubah yang diukur adalah asam lemak terbang (ALT), N-NH3, kecernaan bahan kering, dan kecernaan bahan organik. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penggunaan limbah roti dalam ransum domba sampai 40% mampu meningkatkan konsentrasi ALT (102,63 - 143,88 mM), kecernaan bahan kering (64,66 - 78,61%) dan kecernaan bahan organik (53,41 - 65,82%). Sementara itu, terjadi kenaikan konsentrasi N-NH3 (3,87 - 4,90 mM) sampai penggunaan limbah roti 30%, namun penggunaan 40% limbah roti sama dengan ransum kontrol. Konsentrasi ALT memiliki hubungan erat dengan kecernaan bahan kering dan bahan organik dengan nilai r = 0,67 dan 0,65, pada persamaan regresi Y = 0,1591X + 50,79 dan Y = 0,1528X + 39,619. Kesimpulan, Penggunaan limbah roti di dalam ransum sebanyak 40% tidak mengganggu fermentabilitas dan kecernaan ransum secara in vitro.  (In vitro fermentability and digestibility of sheep rations containing bread waste)ABSTRACT. The study aimed to determine the fermentability and digestibility of sheep rations containing bread waste. The study used a completely randomized design with five types of treatment rations consisting of 40% native grass and 60% concentrate and each treatment containing bread waste as much as 0 (control), 10, 20, 30, and 40%. Each treatment was repeated 4 times and the data collected was analyzed by analysis of variance and continued by Duncan test. The treatment ration was evaluated by in vitro. The variables measured were volatile fatty acids (VFA), N-NH3, dry matter digestibility, and organic matter digestibility. The results showed that the use of bread waste in sheep rations up to 40% was able to increase the concentration of VFA (102.63 to 143.88 mM), dry matter (64.66 to 78.61%) and organic matter digestibility (53.41 to 65.82%). Meanwhile, there was an increase in the concentration of N-NH3 (3.87 to 4.90 mM) until 30%, but the use of 40% bread waste was the same as the control ration. The VFA concentration has a close relationship with the dry matter and organic matter digestibility with values of r = 0.67 and 0.65, in the regression equation Y = 0.1591X + 50.79 and Y = 0.1528X + 39.619. The conclusion is using of bread waste as much as 40% did not disturb the fermentability and digestibility of the ration in vitro.

ABSTRAK.  Progesteron merupakan hormon yang berperan penting dalam proses pemeliharaan kebuntingan dan dihasilkan oleh corpus luteum. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui hubungan antara kadar hormon progesteron pada fase awal luteal dengan kematian embrio pada sapi Aceh. Dalam penelitian ini digunakan empat ekor sapi betina dewasa berumur 3-5 tahun, bobot badan 150-250 kg, sehat secara klinis, dan memiliki reproduksi normal. Sapi disinkronisasi menggunakan 5 ml prostaglandin F2 alfa (PGF2α) dengan pola penyuntikan ganda berinterval 11 hari. Koleksi sampel darah untuk pengukuran konsentrasi progesteron dilakukan pada hari ke-5, 6, dan 7 pasca inseminasi. Pengukuran konsentrasi progesteron dilakukan menggunakan metode enzymelinked-immunoassay (ELISA), pemeriksaan kebuntingan dan kematian embrio menggunakan metode transrektal ultrasonografi pada hari ke-25 pasca inseminasi. Pemeriksaan diulang setiap 10 hari sampai hari ke-55 pasca inseminasi. Puncak sekresi progesteron pada sapi bunting dengan embrio yang bertahan hidup terdapat pada hari ke-7 (2,082 ng/ml), pada sapi Late Embryonic Mortality (LEM) di hari ke-5 (8,209 ng/ml) dan pada sapi tidak bunting di hari ke-7 (3,051±1,157 ng/ml). Sekresi progesteron sapi LEM pada hari ke-5 sampai dengan ke-7 cenderung menurun sedangkan pada sapi yang bertahan hidup cenderung meningkat.  (Correlation between progesterone levels in early luteal phase and embryonic death  in Aceh cattle) ABSTRACT. Progesterone is an important hormone that functions to maintain pregnancy and is produced by the corpus luteum. The aim of this study was to see a correlation between progesterone and the incidence of embryonic death in Aceh cattle. This study used four adult female cows, 3-5 years old, 150-250 kg body weight, clinically healthy, and have a normal reproduction. The synchronized with 5 ml prostaglandin F2 alfa hormone, and double injection pattern with 11-day intervals. The blood was collected for progesterone measurements on 5th, 6th, 7th day post artificial insemination. Measurement of progesterone concentration was carried out using an enzymelinked-immunoassay (ELISA), while pregnancy and embryo mortality was performed using the trans-rectal ultrasonography method on the 25th day after insemination. The examination was repeated every 10 days until day 55th after insemination. Progesterone secretion peaks in pregnant cows were on day 7th (2.082 ng/ml), in cattle Late Embryonic Mortality (LEM) on day 5th (8.209 ng/ml) and in cattle not pregnant on day 7th (3.051±1.157 ng/ml). The pattern of LEM progesterone secretion on days 5th to 7th tends to decrease while those that survive tend to increase.
Entre expectativas y percepciones

Desde el siglo pasado, en los 90, Parasuraman en su libro Calidad Total en la Gestión de Servicios mostraba su propósito de mejorar la calidad de servicio que ofrecían las organizaciones analizando las palabras “expectativa y percepción”; con estas dos palabras se hace referencia que la satisfacción del cliente puede medirse a través del planteamiento de una sencilla ecuación donde la satisfacción es igual a la percepción menos la expectativa, si el cálculo de esta ecuación es positivo hay satisfacción, de lo contrario habrá insatisfacción. Actualmente entiendo que esta ecuación se adapta no solo al sector empresarial sino a todos los sectores porque todos damos algún tipo de servicio y los clientes somos todos nosotros dependiendo de cómo nos agrupemos o afiliemos. Así de sencillo es el planteamiento y, así de sencillo debiera ser para las organizaciones lograr la satisfacción de los clientes; entonces yendo más allá hacia los entornos científicos, laborales y personales, también deberíamos buscar la satisfacción de las personas que transitan en ellos.

El objetivo fue aplicar la metodología PHVA en la línea de cocido para incrementar la productividad de una empresa de conservas de pescado. Se utilizó un diseño preexperimental con pre prueba y post prueba, la población estuvo conformada por todos los procesos de la línea de cocido de la empresa y la muestra fue igual a la población porque se realizó al total de procesos de la línea de cocido. Se aplicaron instrumentos como la técnica de muestreo de trabajo, diagrama de Ishikawa y la técnica de las 5W-H. La aplicación de la metodología PHVA se enfocó al mejoramiento de las operaciones. En el área de eviscerado se implementó un método de trabajo con la reducción de tiempos ociosos y una penalidad por baja productividad. Para el área de molino se determinaron los tiempos estándares y se aplicó balance de líneas; se redujo el tiempo de enfriamiento de la materia prima a una hora, y se aumentó 42 personas en el área de eviscerado. Para el área de sellado se implementó un programa de mantenimiento para la máquina selladora que aumentó en 11,4 % su confiabilidad. Los principales resultados fueron un aumento en la eficiencia de materia prima de 4 %, la productividad de mano de obra en 54,71 kg/hh, la productividad del costo de mano de obra en 16,943 kg/soles y para la productividad de máquina un 36,18 kg/h-máq. Finalmente, se concluye que la metodología PHVA puede conllevar a un aumento de la productividad.
China`s Environmental Policy in the 21st c.: Ecological Problems and International Cooperation
Authors: Peterikova Elizaveta
Published: February 2020

The article looks at the most pressing environmental problems in China and at China’s role in the global environmental cooperation. The author outlines key environmental concerns, defines fundamental principles of China’s environmental policy, and analyses the drawbacks of the country’s eco-diplomacy. Building on the PRC’s overall environmental standing in the 21st century, the author concludes that it does not appear feasible for China to successfully counter its many environmental challenges without effectively renouncing its economycentric development model, and casts doubt on China’s ability to strengthen its status within the global environmental cooperation if the country doesn’t develop a new approach to environmental diplomacy.
Osman Hamdi Bey (1842–1910): The First Turkish Orientalist?
Authors: Vyazemskaya Kseniya
Published: February 2020

The article seeks to answer a central question about the legacy of Osman Hamdi Bey, the first artist in Ottoman Empire to borrow Western European artistic techniques—namely, whether his oeuvre, as that of some of his contemporaries and teachers, is a part of the movement of Orientalism, or if it deserves to be classed as a separate phenomenon in Turkish, Western European, and perhaps worldwide art. The author gives historiographic analysis of existing studies of the artist’s work, shows how some of them directly contradict each other, and concludes that Osman Hamdi’s artistic path was separate and special.
