Published: April 2022

The transition to the construction of the armored fleet in the second half of the 19th century required elaboration of naval guns and projectiles of a new type. The most important quality of the latter was their increased strength, which gave them the ability to penetrate warship's armour. Obukhovskii Steel Works was the first in Russia to start manufacturing steel armor-piercing projectiles. Constantly developing and improving projectile technologies, he remained one of the leaders in this field of production at the beginning of the 20th century.

Accommodation is one of the necessities of tourists and travel agencies' significant responsibilities. With the growing competition and profit-making various tour organising companies have started providing attractive accommodation options to the travellers to win their choices. Present research performs a case study on accommodation providing hotels through designing a strategy to enhance their profit earrings by welcoming more and more tourists. The methodology comprises rough set theory (RST) using the Dominance Based rough set theory (DRST) on the collected data of selected variables such as location, facility, value for money, etc., of hotels. Correspondingly, if and then decision rule has been used to classify these variables. The statistical methods regression analysis has also been used to define each variable's relationship and influence on concerned authorities' decision-making. The results show that hotels and tourists can benefit from the proposed strategy and help in decision making by understanding tourist behaviour, increasing profit, improving services, and quality of hotels.

Published: April 2022

In recent years, changes in demographic structure have been observed worldwide. To sustain the growing population of elderly people with special needs, homes need a radical rethink both in designing new houses and in retrofitting new solutions to existing houses. Designs that facilitate aging in place, designs that maintain thermal comfort, and designs that have net-zero energy demands and low to zero to negative carbon footprints are needed. The article discusses the issues of construction for the elderly. The trends in the demographic development of society in selected countries are presented. Additionally, information on the housing stock for elderly people in Poland is provided. The carbon dioxide emission limits to mitigate climate change make it necessary to find an alternative to concrete and steel, traditional construction materials. In this context, Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) fulfills the sustainability requirements. However, to select the suitable panel a detailed analysis of timber characteristics is required. It is necessary to evaluate mechanical properties in bending, tension, compression, and shear. Since the mechanical properties of certain types of wood differ, their proper selection is challenging. The multi-criteria analysis could address this. In this article, four wood species, spruce, oak, ash, and beech, were evaluated using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) analysis. Based on the type of construction elements and their functions, analyses were using six mechanical properties as criteria. The optimal type of wood was indicated.

Industry 4.0 is leveraging the production capabilities of the industry. The deep digitalization that Industry 4.0 promotes enables to extend control skills to an exhaustive detail in the shop floors. Then, new planning strategies can be designed and implemented. We present mathematical models to represent non-permutation flow shop processes, incorporating Industry 4.0 features and customer-focused attention. Basically, we study the impact of lot streaming on the ensuing optimization problems, since the work-in-process inventory control is considerably enhanced by Industry 4.0 technologies. Thus, is possible to take advantage of subdividing the production lots into smaller sublots, as lot streaming proposes. To test this hypothesis we use a novel approach to non-permutation flow shop problems which requires a lot streaming strategy, incorporating total tardiness as objective function. Our analysis indicates that lot streaming improves results increasingly with the number of machines. We also find that the improvement is less steep with more sublots, increasing the computational cost of solutions. This indicates that it is highly relevant to fine tune the maximum number of sublots to avoid extra costs.

Potential Benefits of Plant-Derived Products on Broiler Meat Characteristics - A Short Review
Authors: Sugiharto Sugiharto
Published: April 2022

Herbal supplements have been researched for decades as a safe alternative to synthetic antioxidants. These natural supplements may help broilers enhance their meat quality, growth, and physiological circumstances. The phenolic compounds in herbal products can serve as antioxidants, thereby responsible for lessening the negative effect of stress before slaughter. One of the most critical factors impacting broiler meats' physical, chemical, and oxidative stability is stress before slaughter. Reducing stress levels during rearing may be anticipated to enhance broiler meat qualities. Some studies have found that herbal supplementation improves meat qualities, whereas others have no impact. The efficacy of herbal supplementation on meat characteristics may be determined by the nature and levels of herbal supplementation and the condition of the animals throughout the rearing. The use of plant-derived products in broiler production and their impact on carcass characteristics, physical and organoleptic qualities, chemical compositions, and oxidative stability of broiler meats are covered in this review.

An Experimental-Linguistic Study of the Folk Concept of Pain: Implication, Projection, & Deniability
Authors: Coninx Sabrina , Willemsen Pascale , Reuter Kevin
Published: April 2022

The last ten years have seen a steady increase in vignette-based research investigating the folk concept of pain. That research challenges the standard view of pain, according to which pains are unpleasant feelings. However, the results of these studies also suggest that the concept of pain is ambiguous and difficult to pin down. This paper approaches the topic from a new angle, using linguistic tests to decipher what people communicate when making statements such as ‘I have a pain in my arm’. The results suggest that first-person pain reports semantically entail information about both an unpleasant feeling and a disruptive bodily state. This speaks in favor of a pluralist view on the semantic meaning of pain.

AbstrakIstilah Terorisme mengemuka di berbagai belahan dunia, baik di negara-negara Eropa, Timur Tengah bahkan Asia termasuk Indonesia. Dikarenakan munculnya setiap kekerasan maupun kehancuran di setiap tempat dengan adanya kerugian tidak saja harta benda bahkan nyawa manusia. Julukan Teroris selalu dialamatkan pada kelompok tertentu yang mengumandangkan jihad, dan peristiwa terorisme yang menjadi perhatian dunia pada saat terjadinya suatu peristiwa Menara Kembar WTC (World Trade Center) milik Amerika Serikat dibom dan hancur pada tanggal 11 September 2001 lalu. Dari tragedi yang menghilangkan ribuan nyawa manusia, perang melawan terorisme global (global war on terrorism) resmi dikumandangkan oleh negara-negara Barat. Sehingga kajian mengenai terorisme mengundang perhatian berbagai kalangan, baik akademisi maupun instansi atau lembaga nasional maupun internasional dengan mengkaji dari berbagai macam aspek, yaitu melalui aspek Teologi, Ideologi, maupun gerakan-gerakan dan jaringannya. Sampai saat ini terorisme menjadi ancaman terhadap ketahanan dan keamanan negara dan juga membuat ketakutan di kalangan masyarakat. Makalah ini akan mengkaji seputar tumbuhnya terorisme baik di luar maupun dalam negeri Indonesia yang akan mengelaborasi terorisme atas nama keagamaan.

Suatu industri berbeda antara satu dan yang lainnya didasarkan atas karakteristik ekonomi, situasi persaingan, dan prospek perkembangannya di masa mendatang. Tingkat perubahan berbagai faktor seperti teknologi, ekonomi, pasar dan persaingan akan bergerak dalam satu range tertentu mulai dari yang lambat sampai dengan yang cepat. Analisis industri dan persaingan akan menggunakan alat dan teknik tertentu bagi perusahaan untuk dapat menyesuaikan dengan perubahan dan kemudian membentuk kekuatan dalam menghadapi persaingan.Perubahan dunia yang begitu cepat telah memaksa produsen dan para penjual berpikir keras agar tetap eksis di dunianya. Perubahan ini disebabkan oleh pesatnya pertumbuhan dan perkembangan teknologi, baik teknologi mesin maupun alas-alas berat, terlebih lagi teknologi telekomunikasi. Perkembangan teknologi mesin dari manual sampai mesin yang serba otomatis telah mampu mengubah mutu atau kuantitas produk, mulai dari kemasan sampai pada isinya yang semakin menarik dan kompetitif.Perusahaan (pengusaha) harus pandai membaca keinginan dan kebutuhan konsumennya melalui berbagai cara, misalnya dengan melakukan riset pemasaran. Tanpa riset pemasaran yang andal pengusaha tidak dapat mengetahui keinginan dan kebutuhan pelanggannya secara tepat. Bahkan, bukan tidak mungkin pengusaha akan ketinggalan informasi dibandingkan dengan pesaingnya.Industri sangat erat kaitannya dengan persaingan. Karena tidak mungkin suatu industri hanya berdiri sendiri tanpa adanya hubungan dengan industri lain. Suatu industri memproduksi suatu produk tentunya juga menggunakan bahan yang diperoleh dari industri lain. Untuk itu, suatu industri dengan industri lainnya selalu berubungan dan tidak jarang melakukan persaingan.

Published: April 2022

The COVID-19 pandemic has threatened lives and livelihoods, imperiled families and communities, and disrupted developmental milestones globally. Among the critical developmental disruptions experienced is the transition to college, which is common and foundational for personal and social exploration. During college shutdowns (Spring 2020), we recruited 633 first year, US students (M age = 18.83 years; 71.3% cisgender women) to provide narratives about the impacts of the pandemic. We tested the ways narrative features were associated with concurrent and longitudinal COVID stressors, psychosocial adjustment, and identity development. Narrative growth expressed in Spring 2020 was positively associated with psychosocial adjustment and global identity development and was negatively associated with mental health concerns. Associations were supported concurrently and at one-year follow-up. Growth partly explained associations between COVID stressors and students’ adjustment. Our findings reinforce the importance of growth for resilience and underscore the importance of connective reasoning as people navigate a chronic stress.

V prispevku predstavljamo ocenjevanje učinkovitosti izvajanja poslovnih procesov s pomočjo kazalnikov strukturne učinkovitosti. To metodo lahko uporabimo kot alternativo ocenjevanju učinkovitosti izvajanja poslovnih procesov s kazalniki operativne učinkovitosti. Z vidika porabe časa in/ali vidika nastalih stroškov lahko učinkovitost procesa ocenimo, ko je proces že vzpostavljen oz. implementiran v podjetje, s predstavljeno metodo pa lahko učinkovitost izvajanja poslovnega procesa preverimo že v fazi oblikovanja modela novega ali prenovljenega procesa. V tem primeru je za oceno učinkovitosti namreč potreben le ustrezen model prenovljenega poslovnega procesa. Uporabnost metode smo prikazali na primeru prenove procesa v enem izmed slovenskih podjetij. Ključne besede: prenova procesov, kazalniki strukturne učinkovitosti, kazalniki operativne učinkovitosti, učinkovitost prenove procesov.
Zakonodajni in tehnični vidik varovanja osebnih podatkov v slovenskih zdravstveno-informacijskih sistemih

Published: April 2022

Varovanje osebnih podatkov je problematika, ki je vsak dan bolj aktualna. Različne novodobne kršitve zasebnosti nastajajo tudi zaradi hitrega tehnološkega razvoja, ki mu zavedanje o potrebah po varovanju podatkov kljub naporom stroke ne sledi dovolj hitro. Omenjena problematika je v zdravstvu še posebno prisotna in pomembna. Velika večina zdravstvenih podatkov je digitaliziranih. Dostopnost in varnost teh podatkov lahko zato hitro postane vprašljiva. Vsi, ki so vključeni v zdravstvene procese, se morajo zavedati, da je varno in pravilno ravnanje s temi podatki ključnega pomena. Direktiva Evropskega parlamenta o varstvu posameznikov pri obdelavi osebnih podatkov in prostem pretoku takšnih podatkov določa smernice za vse države članice Evropske unije. Ta priporočila morajo države članice upoštevati in spoštovati v svojih zakonodajah, povezanih z varstvom osebnih podatkov. V Sloveniji varstvo osebnih podatkov v zdravstvu obravnavajo Ustava Republike Slovenije, Zakon o varstvu osebnih podatkov in Zakon o pacientovih pravicah. V članku se bomo osredinili na pregled direktiv Evropske unije, slovenske zakonodaje in dokumentacije s področja varovanja osebnih podatkov v zdravstvu. Pregledali bomo dostopno dokumentacijo o bolnišničnih informacijskih sistemih po Sloveniji. Z analizo de facto stanja v slovenskem zdravstvu želimo ugotoviti, kako dobro se slovensko zdravstvo prilega zakonodaji: na kakšen način so implementirani zakonsko zagotovljeni varnostni mehanizmi, kako so podatki zaščiteni pri prenosu in kako sistemi in osebje varujejo osebne podatke bolnikov.

Na spletu je veliko podatkov, ki so objavljeni na različnih mestih v različnih, nezdružljivih oblikah. Zaradi tega nad njimi ne moremo izvajati poizvedb. Iskanje odgovora na specifično vprašanje ponavadi terja iskanje po ključnih besedah, branje in tolmačenje vsebine. To lahko rešimo tako, da uporabimo povezane podatke. Problem pri tem je dostopnost in učinkovitost poizvedovanja. V tem članku predstavimo obstoječo rešitev, ki omogoča poizvedovanje po povezanih podatkih tako, da je delo porazdeljeno med strežnikom in odjemalcem. Poleg tega predstavimo obstoječo razširitev, ki poveča učinkovitost in ne nazadnje našo lastno razširitev, s katero poskušamo učinkovitost še izboljšati. Našo razširitev primerjamo z že obstoječo razširitvijo in z osnovno različico omenjene rešitve.

Od razvoja tehnologije veriženja blokov ter pristopov, kot so pametne pogodbe, je zanimanje za vključitev tovrstnih pristopov v obstoječe arhitekture računalništva v oblaku v vzponu. Pametne pogodbe so v splošnem porazdeljene aplikacije, ki omogočajo prenos digitalnih sredstev med pogodbenimi strankami po vnaprej dogovorjenih pogojih, so se izkazale kot obetavne zlasti zaradi transparentnega izvajanja med različnimi deležniki. S povečanjem algoritmičnih kompleksnosti funkcionalnosti, kot v našem primeru metoda za izvajanje sporazuma na ravni storitve v pametnih pogodbah, lahko postane vprašljiva smortnost izvedljivosti predvsem s stroškovnega stališča, zato je mogoče uporabiti sodoben pristop komunikacije pametnih pogodb z zunanjimi viri, ki ga imenujemo pametni preroki. Poenostavitev pametnih pogodb je mogoča, če del jedra funkcionalnosti ali algoritma izvajamo zunaj verige. V tem prispevku predlagamo novo metodo za izvajanje sporazuma na ravni storitve na pametni pogodbi s prenosom operacij z verige na namenske storitve zunaj verige z uporabo pametnih prerokov. Predlagana metoda dokazuje, da je mogoče zmanjšati skupne stroške izvajanja pametne pogodbe in hkrati izboljšuje raven distribucije rešitve.

Authors: Iriani Ade , Situmorang Hamzon , Zein T. Tyrhaya
Published: April 2022

This study is a literary study that discusses the picture of the social reality of Japanese society in a novel by Rei Kimura entitled Butterfly in the Wind. The  method used is descriptive analytic. The data are in the form of excerpts or sentence excerpts in novels that describe the social reality of Japanese society. The theory used is the sociological theory of literature and Marx's social analysis approach. From the analysis, it is concluded that various social realities of Japanese society are depicted in the novel Butterfly in the Wind which includes aspects of politics, economy, culture, education, family, morals, gender, religion, and technology. In the political aspect, it is illustrated that the attitude of government (bakufu) is arbitrary and unfair, especially among farmers and fishermen groups. The economic aspect illustrates the economic gap between groups of aristocrats and ordinary people. Cultural and religious aspects are reflected in the patriarchal culture of Japanese society and Buddhist rituals which are carried out such as funeral processions. The aspect of education illustrates the unfairness and distribution of education for Japanese society at that time. The family aspect shows a picture of affection between family members, especially parents and children. The moral aspect is reflected in the behavior of people who hate Okichi's background as a concubine. The gender aspect illustrates the gender bias between men and women. Finally, on the technological aspect, the reality of Japanese technology is still low compared to European and American countries.

Some of the recent researches show that air pollutants such as particulate matter (PM), including fine particles (PM<2.5μm, PM2.5) and very fine particles (PM <0.1μm, PM 0.1) can reach the brain and affect CNS health. Neurological complications with Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) have been observed. The aim of this review the relationship between air pollutants exposure and COVID-19 was focused on the role of airborne aerosol particles in the prevalence of the disease, as well as the neurological effects of COVID-19. It is not yet clear how the virus is transmitted from one sick person to another and why it is so transmissible. Viruses can be probably transmitted through speech and exhalation aerosols. Findings show that SARS-CoV-2 aerosol transmission is possible. Spike (S) proteins of SARS‑CoV‑2 determine tissue tropism using an angiotensin-converting enzyme receptor type2 (ACE-2) to bind to the cells. ACE-2 receptor is found in the tissues of the nervous system. Neurological disorders that occur with COVID-19 can have many pathophysiological backgrounds. Some are the result of a direct viral attack on tissues of the nervous system, others appear to be an autoimmune process post-viral, and still others appear to be the result of systemic and metabolic complications associated with critical illness.

Authors: singh Kalyani
Published: April 2022

Infertility is a defined as failure to achieve a pregnancy after 12 months or more of regular, unprotected sex. It affects millions of people of reproductive age worldwide and has an impact on their families and communities. Having babies gives an unparalleled satisfaction to parents and lack of baby may make one’s life miserable at times. Here we are presenting a case where a lady who got pregnant and gave birth to a child just following Dilatation & Curettage and Hydrotuabtion (tubal flushing) when other measures like diagnostic laparoscopy and IUI failed. Dilatation and curettage and tubal patency test/ hydrotubation (D & C & TPT} was an old diagnostic procedure before the advent of ultrasonography and laparoscopic technique. It is an easy, minor operative procedure to evaluate the condition of uterus and tubes. Examination under anesthesia gives information regarding parametrium also to a considerable extent.

A Colorado-Wyoming Border Diatreme and a Possible Potential Kimberlite Indicator Plant
Authors: Collins Donna Bishop , Collins Donley S.
Published: April 2022

Small breccia pipes (diatremes) composed of kimberlite and other rare mantle rocks which contain potentially economic deposits of diamonds are scattered near the Colorado-Wyoming border in the northern Front Range of the southern Rocky Mountains. The Schaffer 13 diatreme study area, located on the Colorado-Wyoming border northwest of Virginia Dale, Colorado, is the focus of this report. During initial fieldwork there, samples of garnet, ilmenite, and various ultramafic nodules were collected. Several previously undiscovered protections of the diatreme were mapped. A small, apparently separate diatreme was also discovered west of the Schaffer 13. The gold aster (Chrysopsis foliosa) grew around the edges of the diatreme on the surrounding granite surface, but did not grow on the weathered kimberlite surface. The asters bloom from June to early August, forming a definitive, colorful boundary in areas of low relief, poor drainage, and good residual soils. Use of the plants to determine the boundaries is difficult in areas of active drainage and relatively high relief where the actively transported soil is well diluted by both kimberlite and granite .
Stratigraphy and Palynology of the Upper Lewis Shale, Picture Cliffs Sandstone, and the Lower Fruitland Formation (Upper Cretaceous) near Durango, Colorado
Authors: Manfrino Carrie
Published: April 2022

The stratigraphy and palynology of Upper Cretaceous units (upper Lewis Shale, Pictured Cliffs Sandstone, and lower Fruitland Formation) were investigated near Durango, Colorado, on the northern rim of the San Juan basin. This investigation: (1) confirms an interdeltaic depositional setting for these formations in the study area, (2) provides new biostratigraphic data for the Upper Cretaceous rocks on the northern rim of the San Juan basin, and (3) indicates a mostly freshwater origin for the Carbonero coal bed at the base of the Fruitland Formation. The upper Lewis Shale was deposited in lower offshore to upper offshore marine environments. The Pictured Cliffs Sandstone records a major regression on the western margin of the Late Cretaceous sea. The northeastward regression was not one steady event but a series of superimposed transgressive pulses. The depositional environments identified in the Pictured Cliffs Sandstone are upper offshore, shoreface, foreshore, and backshore. The lower part of the Fruitland Formation represents a coastal swamp deposit which developed just landward of the Pictured Cliffs Sandstones. The Carbonero coal bed lies at the base of the Fruitland Formation. At one location, a small tidal channel developed and inundated the local swamp environment. Ten Late Cretaceous palynomorph guide fossils were identified in the Lewis Shale, Pictured Cliffs Sandstone, and Fruitland Formation. The palynomorphs of the Lewis Shale and Pictured Cliffs Sandstone are a marine assemblage. The Fruitland Formation contains a terrestrial assemblage of pollen and spores. Trudopollis meekeri, Kuylisporites scutatus, and cf. Myrtaceoipollenites are a late Campanian Stage palynomorph assemblage in the Fruitland Formation. These findings refute the recent interpretation of a late Maestrichtian age for the Fruitland Formation. The palynological results obtained in this research can be used for correlation and mapping of interbasin and intrabasin sedimentary facies.
Identité organisationnelle et décisions de « faire ou faire faire »
Authors: Barthélemy Jérôme
Published: April 2022

La quasi-totalité des recherches sur les décisions de « faire et faire faire » s’appuient sur la théorie des coûts de transaction et sur la théorie des ressources. Dans cet article, nous réexaminons cette problématique à l’aide du concept d’identité organisationnelle. Plus précisément, nous posons la question de recherche suivante : dans quelle mesure l’identité organisationnelle permet-elle de mieux comprendre les décisions de « faire ou faire faire » ? Pour y répondre, nous avons créé une base de données unique sur la parfumerie de luxe française au 20e siècle. Les résultats des analyses statistiques menées sur plus de 100 entreprises et 1 200 parfums montrent que l’identité organisationnelle explique une partie de la variance non expliquée par les investissements dans des actifs spécifiques et les compétences.

OBJECTIVE

The goals of this study were to evaluate the extent of resection (EOR) obtained with an occipital interhemispheric transtentorial approach (OITA) in a series of pediatric patients with pineal region tumors and to define preoperative radiological factors predictive of the EOR.

METHODS

This is a retrospective cohort study of a series of pediatric patients with pineal tumors who underwent surgery through a microsurgical OITA performed by the senior author during the period from January 2006 to January 2020. The tumor volume was measured preoperatively, and then on sagittal midline cuts the authors identified the most cranial point of the torcular Herophili (defined as the “Herophilus point”) and the lowest point of the inferior profile of the vein of Galen (defined as the “Galen point”). The line joining these two points (defined as the "Herophilus-Galen line" [H-G line]) was used to identify the "Herophilus-Galen plane" (H-G plane) perpendicular to the sagittal plane. Tumor volumes located below and above this plane were measured. EOR was evaluated by measuring residual tumor volume visible on T1 volumetric injected sequences of immediate postoperative MRI.

RESULTS

Thirty patients were selected for study inclusion. The preoperative mean tumor volume was 15.120 cm3 (range 0.129–104.3 cm3). The mean volumes were 2.717 cm3 (range 0–31 cm3) above the H-G plane and 12.40 cm3 (median 5.27 cm3, range 0.12–72.87 cm3) below the H-G plane. Three patients underwent only biopsy. Of the remaining 27 patients, gross-total resection (GTR; 100% tumor volume) was achieved in 20 patients (74%). In the remaining 7 patients, the mean residual tumor volume was 7.3 cm3 (range 0.26–17.88 cm3). In 3 of these patients, GTR was accomplished after further surgical procedures (1 in 2 patients, 3 in 1 patient) for an overall GTR rate of 85.18%. Larger tumor volume was significantly associated with incomplete resection (p < 0.001). A tumor volume ≤ 2 cm3 above the H-G plane (p = 0.003), linear extension ≤ 1 mm above the H-G line, and pineal histology were predictive of GTR at first OITA procedure (p = 0.001).

CONCLUSIONS

The H-G line is an intuitive, easy-to-use, and reliable indicator of the superior anatomical limit of visibility during the microsurgical OITA. This anatomical landmark may be useful as a predictor of EOR for pineal tumors performed through this approach. The main limitations of this study are the small number of patients and the exclusively pediatric age of the patient population.

Authors: Hui Dong Fang , Bezkorovayna I.M.
Published: April 2022

Introduction. The changes in the thickness of lipid layer of lacrimal film, the height of the lacrimal meniscus, and non-invasive time of the lacrimal film rupture under the exposure to digital devices up to 60 minutes are requiring in-depth investigation. This justifies the needs for extensive research to determine the safe continuous time spent in front of the screen of digital devices. The aim of this study is to determine the safe time for work with digital devices that does not result in significant changes in the tear film indices. Materials and methods. We examined 335 people (670 eyes) aged from 18 to 48 years, an average age is 28 ± 0.74 years. The study was conducted in two stages: during I stage we analyzed the tear film without the exposure to digital devices; during II stage we analyzed changes in the tear film after the work with digital devices. The analysis of the tear film composition after the exposure to digital devices for 20; 30; 40 and 60 minutes was carried out. Results. Following 20 minute exposure, the thickness of the lipid layer did not differ from the initial data obtained in the subjects (p>0.05); NIBUT also did not change and was similar to the initial indicators (p>0.05); the frequency of blinking began to decrease by 3% of subjects compared with the initial data, however, the difference was not reliable (p>0.05). After 30 minute exposure, there was no significant change in the lipid layer of the tear film, the height of the lacrimal meniscus and the tear film rupture (p> 0.05). Only the frequency of blinking decreased down by 12% of all participants compared with the initial data (p <0.05). After 40 minute exposure, the number of subjects with moderate lipid layer thinning went up to 13% (p<0.05); the number of subjects with pathological indices of tear meniscus increased by 11% (p<0.05); there was no significant change in tear film rupture found (p> 0.05); the blinking frequency decreased by 26% of all participants compared to the initial data (p <0.01). After 60 minute exposure, the number of those examined with a thinning of the lipid layer increased to 16% (p <0.01), of which 3% had a significant thinning of the lipid layer; the number of examined patients with pathological indices of the lacrimal meniscus increased by 16% (p <0.01); the number of patients with NIBUT changes increased by 14% (p <0.01); the frequency of blinking decreased in 50% of all subjects compared to the initial data (p <0.01). Conclusion. The influence of computer devices for 20 minutes does not significantly affect the qualitative composition of the tear film.
