The progressive humanity understood: medicine has relative possibilities of eliminating the consequences of destructive processes in the human body and psyche, while prevention, propaedeutics and other forms of prevention are relevant not consequences, but causes. Doctors should abandon the monopoly on improving health and move to cooperate with humanitarian activities in achieving the hygienic, preventive, sinological, therapeutic and valeological aim (the last one can prevent the disease development in the initial stages of any dysfunction). The medical industry and pharmacology itself would have to be motivated to do this, because the supportive therapy, the nosological approach to most human pathologies, the rise of pharmacological business stimulate the medical approach. These trends should be taken into account in pedagogy as an initial activity in shaping a future human potential. However, there was an internal contradiction near these positive trends in their own valeology: if a person can be forced to be treated, not to violate the laws or rights of others, then valeology can only be involved. Because it is a worldview concept, even an ideological one, the bitter experience of totalitarian attraction to political or cultural ideas didn’t produce a positive result. Attraction to valeological worldview, and therefore behavior, is similar to attraction to art, religion, philosophy. The deep spiritual preparedness need here and need of a person who is difficult to present within microgroups, and only in individual conscious individuals. At the mass level, the only way out is fashion, style, hobby. “To be healthy is fashionable” - such a declarative slogan was heard in many countries, but it cannot be said that the involvement in mass physical culture, hygiene and sports, increased valeological consciousness and reduced the disease level among the population.

Expand and deepening of detailed researches into the problems of training future primary teachers in physical education is very necessary under modern conditions. Scientists pay special attention to the creation and introduction of active methods of study, the skilful use of which would contribute to increasing efficiency in the acquisition by students of professional knowledge, skills in the organization of physical education process of pupils.  Physical culture lessons in their modern format are insufficient in themselves to maintain health of children, because they are often carried out unskilled, uninteresting, which creates an additional study load, negative attitude of pupils to school physical culture is produced as a kind of secondary educational subject. There is a hopeless situation under such conditions, at first sight. Therefore, the way out of the situation that now has developed is to review fundamentally tasks, essence, functions, forms and technological foundations of physical education at school. First of all, it is necessary to go beyond the traditional perception of physical culture as means of conducting only appropriate lessons. Physical culture should be considered a key component of human culture and not only as the development of individual physical qualities of the body, as universal means and prerequisite for the formation of all qualities of the individual - ethical, emotionally and strong-willed, intellectual and creative, permissive-entertainment, spiritual in general.  The activity components of the organizer of sports and mass work at primary school, listed in the research, are interconnected, constitute the main content of the structure of his abilities, although they are constantly improved in the processes of their manifestation. Also our observations convince that each individual teacher is most often dominated by some one of the components just named. One teacher is well produced with organizational tasks, another with Gnostic, and another with communicative tasks. This is the individual style of activity and the development level of his pedagogical abilities.

Self-improvement is especially important component of educational activity of teachers in light recognitions not the subject - object, and the subject - subject interaction of a teacher and a pupil and also the declaration and also the Convention of the UN principles of continuous education (education throughout life) when not only a separate lesson, a semester or even completely study at school / HEI is only a separate fragment, and a person has to “learn to study” during this time. The purpose of the article is in theoretical justification of self-development in the context of forming the future teacher’s pedagogical skills. The main ways of self-improvement of physical culture future teacher is the complex of internal personal requirements (need for physical, intellectual, spiritual, professional self-improvement) which are implemented in concrete types of external and internal (psychological) activity: self-checking, self-organization, self-training, self-education, and so forth. In modern understanding the pedagogical skill is a state and a certain level of personality of a teacher, a dialectical combination of his personal and professional qualities, which allow high-quality achievement of partial and general pedagogical aims. The pedagogical skill - the ability to creatively solve pedagogical problems during physical culture classes, to organize educational process with the involvement of high culture, professional knowledge, physical skills and etc. on the basis of competent, active and personality-oriented approaches, deep pedagogical knowledge, experience, wide outlook, personal culture, creativity and pedagogical tactics in the projection on the personality of physical culture teacher. At the same time the pedagogical skill is the relatively completed process, therefore when diagnosing the level pedagogical skill should be oriented to a teacher’s sufficient level with the corresponding experience.

Published: June 2020

The article examines the motor activity of students of musical arts using the Framingham method and identifies the ways to increase it through organized recreational activity and rational organization of free time.

The data revealed a significant decrease of average indicators and lack of higher levels of motor activity for students of musical art. The total value of daily motor activity at basic, sedentary, and small levels is 91.6% among students. The assessment of motor activity showed that students of I and II year do not exhibit high levels of motor activity. Students in their third year of study showed very low motor activity.

It is revealed that a lack of motor activity in students of music arts is associated with the static standing/sitting position to improve professional skills and the irrational distribution of free time.

The results obtained prove that it is highly important to increase the motivation of students of musical arts to exercise and engage in sports.

Published: June 2020

O presente estudo discute o legado ancestral da dança do Coco de Roda como uma expressão cultural que acessa a memória e a identidade local tanto dos brincantes, que estão na roda, quanto dos moradores, quando estes participam como expectadores. Estudar a prática brincante do Coco de Roda nos coquistas é colaborar com a manutenção de uma tradição que corrobora para um pertencimento étnico, capaz de produzir significados para a comunidade que é herdeira do passado que ressurge nas práticas cotidianas brincantes de Caetano que contribui para a formulação de políticas públicas de preservação e manutenção do patrimônio cultural local. Este também merece ressalvas em seu uso porque surge no contexto colonial que invisibiliza a cultura afro-indígena. Para desvelar essa discussão foi preciso estabelecer um tipo de metodologia denominada de História Oral que tece uma relação entre sujeito e sua tradição cultural por meio de depoimentos que se constituem em narrativas carregadas de significados até para quem não pertence a tradição da comunidade. Por fim, diante dessa sociedade opressora e racista que nega as tradições populares de matriz afro-indígena que se constitui como uma prática de resistência e pertencimento dos brincantes e moradores ao legado ancestral da região.

Published: June 2020

Background: Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is considered as a gold standard of kidney function. However, using GFR as the gold standard is not common in clinical practice, because its direct measurement is usually expensive, cumbersome, and invasive. In the present study, we assessed the predictive power of two other biomarkers, Cystatin-C (Cys-C) and Neutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin (NGAL) for early detection of chronic kidney diseases (CKD) in the absence of a gold standard. Materials and Methods: In this study, 72 patients who referred to the Shohadaye Tajrish Hospital of Tehran, Iran, for measuring their kidney function were studied. The ELISA method was utilized for measuring plasma NGAL (PNGAL) and serum Cys-C (SCys-C). The Bayesian latent class modeling approach was applied to asses the predictive power of these biomarkers. Results: While both the biomarkers had rather high sensitivities (PNGAL=91%, SCys-C= 89%), the specificity of SCys-C biomarker was very lower than the one of PNGAL (SCys-C=56%, PNGAL=94%). The estimated area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve for SCys-C as the single biomarker for the diagnosis of CKD was about 0.76, while a similar estimate for PNGAL was 0.93. The added value of PNGAL to SCys-C for the diagnosis of CKD in terms of the ROC curve was about 0.19, while the added value of SCys-C to PNGAL was less than 0.02. Conclusion: In general, our findings suggest that PNGAL can be utilized as a single reliable biomarker for early detection of CKD. In addition, results showed that when a perfect gold standard is not available, Bayesian approaches to latent class models could lead to more precise sensitivity and specificity estimates of imperfect tests.

Rola cara Piotra (927-969) w życiu bułgarskiego Kościoła. Kilka uwag
Authors: Leszka Mirosław J.
Published: June 2020

Tsar Peter was a ruler who was active in the sphere of church policy, and is pictured to have been a deep believer himself. He is credited with the fact of granting the title of patriarch to the Bulgarian archbishop, which most probably occurred under the framework of the agreement of 927 (?933/934). The act sym­bolically completed the process of acquiring full maturity and independence by the Church of Bulgaria. Peter, as the first Bulgarian ruler, had to face a serious problem of heresy. Be­ing fully aware of responsibility for orthodoxy of his subjects’ creed, he was de­termined enough to take precautions in order to stifle the development of the Bo­gomil heresy. However, his actual actions (except for his consulting the patriarch) and their results are impossible to pinpoint. On the other hand, it should be stressed that, during the rule of tsar Peter, the Bulgarian monasticism lived through a period of considerable development. The tsar contributed to that progress, though, unfortunately, details of the phenomenon are impossible to determine. Peter himself became a monk before his death, and subsequently his personal worship evolved around his involvement in the monas­tic movement.
Stefan Uroš II Milutin – działalność fundacyjna serbskiego króla
Authors: Piórecka Agnieszka
Published: June 2020

Biographer of Stefan Uroš II Milutin, Archbishop Danilo II, states in his book that about fifteen churches and monastery buildings, were erected under the aus­pices of the Serbian king. They were created in Serbia, Constantinople, Thessa­lonica, Athos, Jerusalem and Sinai. Similarly, as byzantine Emperor, the Serbian king not always founded new objects. Occasionally, as it was in the case of the church in Staro Nagoričino, he only resurrected run-down buildings. Probably, as the result of this activity there is such an architectural variety of his foundations. Since the moment of his marriage to the daughter of the Byzantine Emperor, An­dronikos II Palaiologos, Simonis in 1299, started the specific spread of byzantine domination in Serbia, also in architecture. Erecting buildings in byzantine style, the king employed master builders from the area of Empire. In the case of church­es in Prizren (Bogorodica Ljeviška) and in Staro Nagoričino, we can observe in­fluence of Epirus architecture.

Aim: Acute myeloid leukemia is an aggressive disease caused by a heterogeneous clonal disorder of hematopoietic progenitor cells that normally lose their ability to respond to differentiation and proliferation regulators. The main purpose is to identify and prevent the causes of acute leukemia. Although the etiology of acute leukemia has been investigated for many years, the exact cause is still unknown. Both ABO and Rh blood group systems have been associated with a number of diseases. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between AML and blood group types. Material and Method: Between February 2014 and February 2018 The blood types of 163 AML patients treated in Abdurrahman Yurtaslan Ankara Oncology Training and Research Hospital were analyzed retrospectively. Age, sex, and blood group data of healthy platelet donors were used as a control group. Results: The most common blood type in both men and women was A Rh-positive, no statistically significant difference was found between the control group and AML patients in terms of ABO blood group distribution. Rh positivity rate was similar between the patient group and healthy control group. Discussion: We found that there is no relation between AML and ABO and Rh blood groups. Although there are larger studies confirming the relationship between solid tumors and ABO blood groups, studies on hematologic malignancies are fewer. Cunclusion: A relationship between AML and ABO and Rh blood groups has not yet been clarified, more studies with more patients are needed.

Authors: ÖZDEMİR Ayşe , KARLI Pervin , AVCI Bahattin
Published: June 2020

Objective: Current studies have demonstrated that midkine (MK) inhibits the apoptosis in granulosa cells and is responsible for follicular angiogenesis. The aim of this study was to investigate the relation of MK levels and ART outcome.Material and Method: The study included a total of 99 patients who underwent IVF-ICSI at Ondokuz Mayis University between February 2019 and April 2019. Of 99 patients, no embryo development was formed in 1 patient, no oocytes were obtained by oocyte pick up (OPU) in 14 patients and the oocyte cryopreservation was established in 17 patients. In total, 67 patients underwent fresh embryo transfer after IVF-ICSI. On the day of OPU, the level of midkine in serum and follicular fluids were examined. The primary outcome was determined as pregnancy and secondary outcome was determined as blastocyst‐stage embryos. Results: The level of midkine in serum and follicular fluid was found to be higher in pregnant women compared with non-pregnant women (p=0.042 and p=0.01 respectively). Midkine levels in follicular fluid and serum lead to an increase in blastocyst development.Conclusion: Midkine levels in follicular fluid and serum may lead to an increase in blastocyst development. The level of midkine is higher in pregnant subjects than in non-pregnant subjects.

Aim: We aimed to compare the gender, age, and physiology index and C-reactive protein/albumin ratio in order to evaluate the prognosis, clinical course and survival of patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.Material and Method: Forty-seven patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis diagnosed by radiologically or pathologically in the 8th clinic of our hospital between January 2013 and December 2018 included to the study. Demographic characteristics, pulmonary function tests, 6-minute walk test values, echocardiography results, life span, additional diseases, treatment information, laboratory results of patients, gender, age and physiology indexes and initial C-reactive protein/albumin ratio of the patients were recorded from the patient files. Results: According to gender, age and physiology index there were 25 (53.2%) patients in stage I, 11 (23.4%) patients in stage II, and 11 (23.4%) patients in stage III. The patients were divided into 2 groups according to their life conditions. The rate of respiratory failure, the mean pulmonary arterial pressure and gender, age, and physiology stage were significantly higher (p grup 0.05) in the exitus group. The 6- minute walk test was significantly lower in the exitus group (p<0.05). C-reactive protein/albumin ratio results were similar in both groups and there were no significant differences according to other parameters in both groups too. There was no significant difference between the C-reactive protein/albumin ratio values of the patients in each of the three gender, age, and physiology stages.Conclusion: Gender, age, and physiology stage is easy and useful but C-reactive protein/albumin ratio isn’t convenient to predict the prognosis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. The elevation of pulmonary arterial pressure, low 6 minute walk test and presence of respiratory failure are poor prognostic factors in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

Aim: To investigate the effect of the axis of the IUD wings in the cannula on the pain felt while passing the cervical canal.
Material and Method: Ninety-one patients who underwent IUD application in the family planning policlinic were enrolled in the study. The patients were randomly divided into two groups according to the IUD application sequence number. Odd numbers were included in the 'Transverse application' (Group I), while even numbers were included in the 'Vertical application' (Group II) group. After the procedure, patients were informed about the visual analog scale (VAS) by another doctor who did not perform the procedure. Patients rated pain intensity during the procedure from 0 (zero, painless) to 10 (ten, highest pain) on VAS.
Results: No statistically significant difference was found between the groups in terms of age, gravida, parity, body mass index, cervical length, previous cesarean history, presence of retroverted uterus. There was no statically significant difference according to VAS scores between the groups, but the mean VAS score was lower in Group II. Also, the presence of severe pain (VAS score>8) was statistically significantly higher in Group I. Transverse application procedure (OR: 1.21, 95% CI: 0.21-6.70, p = 0.042) was found to be a significant independent factor for the presence of severe pain in multiple regression analysis.
Conclusion: In the IUD application procedure, passing the cervical canal while the wings in cannula are in the vertical axis has been associated with less pain felt.

Authors: Junaid Muhammad Rizwan
Published: June 2020

Rapid population growth, changing weather conditions and an increasing number of natural disasters have left human beings more vulnerable and exposed to nature’s onslaught. Disaster Management Organizations (DMOs) need to be more resilient, responsive and effective to counter these natural hazards and should not leave any stone unturned in order to play their pivotal role in rescue, relief and rehabilitation. Organizational knowledge and logistics are two core factors considered most significant in transforming a DMO into a resilient organization that can shoulder its due responsibility in a plausible and desired manner. This paper is an initial attempt that discusses the integration of knowledge resources and logistics to accelerate the process of the said transformation.

Published: June 2020

Educational management studies are now established as a way to infuse students with various pedagogic as well as didactic principles. The approaches are now switching from reading and lecture-based modes to analytical case-studies and problem-oriented learning methodologies. These inclusive development procedures are undertaken by educational institutions jointly in partnership with industry associates. This research paper highlights the consequences of learning practices in reducing the gap between corporate and academic entities through involvement in the problem-based learning methodology which is frequently utilized in business and medical studies at the Higher Educational Institutions (HEIs) of Pakistan. The paper investigates how the pedagogical method of problem-based learning is significant in meeting the changing needs of industry through enhancing the proficiency of graduates to manage corporate challenges in volatile external environments. The results lead us to conclude that problem-based learning at HEIs plays a substantial role in upgrading the potential of graduates to serve competitively in corporate sectors, thus realizing the inherent existence of strong ties between commercial and educational management sectors. Hence, PBL serves to be a more effective approach than the traditional teaching methodologies for producing better knowledge outcomes in terms of capable alumnae to serve at commercial levels.

The paper presented results of the comparative assessment of nutrient absorption capacity by plants, including reed grass (Phragmites australis L.) and vetiver (Vetiveria zizanioides L.). The constructed wetland models were designed with experiments (i) - Loading 1 (T1): reed grass (S1), vetiver (V1) + control (C1); (ii) - Loading 2 (T2): reed grass (S2), vetiver (V2) + control (C2); (iii) - Load 3 (T3): reed grass (S3), vetiver (V3) + control (C3). The study investigated the surface water quality parameters including nutrients such as TKN (Total Kieldalh Nitrogen), ammonium (NH4-N), nitrite (NO2-N), nitrate (NO3-N), total phosphorus (TP) and phosphate (PO43-). Results showed that there was significantly decreasing change related to pollutant concentration in the tanks. The studied results showed that the water treatment efficiency of Loading 1 (T1) possessed highly nutrient absorption capacities such as nitrogen and phosphorus. Comparing the nitrogen and phosphorus removal efficiency, there was no statistically significant difference between reed grass and vetiver in the same loading (P>0.05). In general, in the same loading levels, the plants’ nutrient removal efficiencies were often higher than the control experiments (P<0.05). The effluent findings illustrated some parameters of water quality that met to National Technical Regulation of surface water quality for agricultural irrigation purposes (QCVN 08-MT:2015/BTNMT). Therefore, the constructed wetland technology obtained highly effective characteristics and supplying the environmental friendly advantages.
Quantum chemical studies of interactions between Au6 cluster and DNA bases

Published: June 2020

Density functional theory (DFT) is employed to examine the adsorption mechanism of DNA bases (adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine) on the gold surface using Au6 cluster as model reactant. Geometries of resulting complexes are optimized using the PBE functional in conjunction with the cc-pVTZ-PP consistent-correlation pseudopotential basis set for gold and the cc-pVTZ basis set for the non-metals. The binding sites and energies, along with several quantum chemical indicators are also investigated at the same level of theory. The binding energies between Au6 cluster and DNA bases are computed to be around 14–25 kcal/mol in gas-phase and slightly reduced to 10 – 20 kcal/mol in the water environment. Cytosine has the highest affinity with gold cluster, decreasing as follows cytosine > adenine  guanine > thymine. If a visible light with a frequency of Hz (500 nm) is applied, the time for the recovery of Au6 from the complexes will be in the range of   (for thymine) to 10 (for cytosine) seconds at 298 K in water. In addition, the geometric structures of both the gold cluster and DNA bases are almost unchanged during the complexation. The gold cluster is found to benefit from a larger change of energy gap that could be converted to an electrical signal for the detection of these molecules. Current results could provide us with fundamentals for understanding the DNA bases absorption on gold nanoparticle surfaces at the atomic and molecular levels.
Effect of Vietnamese Helicobactor pylori strain DN18 on the NF-κB pathway and H2AX activation of the AGS cell line
Authors: Pham Dao Thi Hong , Nguyen Trang My Ho , Nguyen Vy Thuy
Published: June 2020

Infection with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is the strongest known risk factor for gastric cancer. The molecular mechanisms of H. pylori-associated gastric carcinogenesis remain not elucidated. Recent findings indicate that H. pylori infection may promote gastric carcinogenesis by inducing inflammation and genetic instability in gastric epithelial cells. In addition, it is shown that the impact of H. pylori on infected cells is associated with bacterial virulence that is diverse among geographical regions as well as populations. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the effect of H. pylori strain DN18 from Vietnamese subject on the in vitro activity of NF-κB transcription factor, a key regulator of inflammation, and expression of its target genes in this study. Moreover, host genomic instabilities were studied through examining the formation of DNA double-strand break (DSB) by using phosphorylated histone H2AX (γH2AX) as a DSB marker. Our results showed that H. pylori strain DN18 induced activation of NF-kB pathway and increased transcriptional expression of inflammatory mediators in human gastric mucosal cell AGS. We also provided evidence that the H. pylori infection triggered accumulation of  DSBs marker γH2AX. In summary, our study showed the potential ability to cause inflammation and DNA damage to infected cells of H. pylori strains isolated from Vietnamese patients.

Spunbond method is widely used in the production of nonwoven fabrics. Melt flow index (MFI) is one of the most important polymer processing parameters. In this paper, tensile strength and elongation values of spunbond fabrics with four different weights produced from polypropylene polymers with two different MFI values were measured. Tensile strength tests were analyzed by two-way multiple variance analysis (Two-Way Manova) in the SPSS statistical package program, and the effects of MFI and weight values on the strength properties of spunbond textile surfaces were examined. As a result of the statistical analysis, it was observed that statistically significant differences (p < 0.05) occurred in both tensile strength and elongation values with the change of weight value. In addition, significant differences (p < 0.05) occurred in tensile strengths with the change of MFI value, but the differences in elongation values were not statistically significant (p > 0.05).

The present study took into account not only Plasmodium falciparum infections that are commonly advocated as the main cause of severe malaria, but the complications related to Plasmodium vivax have been carefully described. The objective of this article was to identify the epidemiological, clinical and laboratory profile of severe malaria in patients attended at the Child and Adolescent Hospital in Macapá – Amapá. An epidemiological study, descriptive of retrospective character, was carried out. Data were obtained by consulting data bank for the year 2016. Severe malaria was considered in 47 cases. There were predominant male patients with 63.8% and the age group up to 5 years with 59.6% of the cases. As to the species, the most frequent infections were P. vivax with 72% in relation to P. falciparum with 28% of cases. The months with the greatest number of hospitalizations were September and November, both with 17%. The main clinical manifestations were: fever, pallor and cough. The conditions that indicated gravity that most occurred: vomiting 87%, jaundice 23%, dyspnoea and age <1 year both with 21%. Haematological examinations showed that 91% of the patients had red blood cells below the reference values and 100% of the cases had low hemoglobin and hematocrit; thrombocytopenia was observed in 72% of the cases. Altered results of biochemical dosages of major clinical importance were: urea, transaminases, glycyme and C-reactive protein. The identification of epidemiological, clinical and laboratory data of severe malaria contributes to the early diagnosis and appropriate treatment of the disease.
