Published: December 2021

In recent years, the rapidly growing incidence of cardiovascular diseases, which are beginning to  appear in younger people. There is a need for the primary prevention of cardiovascular disease, i.e. measures to prevent the occurrence of heart disease in healthy people.

However, adherence to medication therapy, prescribed as primary prevention, our population is very low. Development of adverse reactions to medication drugs as they are hypersensitive, allergic addiction, negative reaction on the part of other organs and systems, significantly reduces the effectiveness of treatment.

The way out of this situation may be drugs of medicinal plants, which continue to play a significant role in the arsenal of therapeutic agents. For example, patients with neuro dystonia is considered an advantage of prevention with the use of traditional medicines, the effect of which is aimed at the normalization of the nervous system.

One such drug is Neokardil. Correction of functional changes and move them into organic when NDCs via Neokardin can play a significant role in the prevention of cardiovascular disease.

Authors: Kaminsky Viacheslav , Anoshina Tetiana , Kolomiychenko Tetiana
Published: December 2021

The objective: to evaluate the social and health aspects of the association of HIV and herpes infections (GVI) in pregnant women.

Patients and methods. Clinical and statistical analysis of 1177 individual cards of pregnant women with HIV for 5 years. The control group consisted of 200 pregnant women with physiological pregnancy.

Results. Analysis of individual cards of pregnant women with HIV found insufficient to TORCH-infection survey (74,7%). The frequency of herpes infections in HIV-infected patients was 42,3%. The most common laboratory revealed HSV1/2 – 41,9%, CMV – 22,4% and mixed infection (both HSV1/2 and CMV) – 28,1%, other types of AIT is quite rare. At 8,5% of pregnant women stated primary infection herpes viruses, 27,2% – the reactivation of infection. HIV infection is often associated with other infections: hepatitis, fungal infections, toxoplasmosis, papillomavirus infections, respiratory infections, infections of the genitourinary system. Fixed low social status of HIV-infected women with AIT, the presence of harmful habits, a high frequency of co-infections and low compliance to treatment, are additional factors of perinatal risk. History data indicate a high rate of abortions and missed abortion in women with HIV infection and GVI. Going the way of HIV infection with parenteral on sex strengthens the role of herpes virus infection as a cofactor transition from HIV to AIDS, and the development of perinatal complications. The current pregnancy burdened with 84,3% of women: high incidence of placental insufficiency (41,3%), the threat of miscarriage and preterm labor, fetal distress. Maternal mortality in 5 years was noted in 2 cases (0,1‰), both women were GVI, perinatal – in 12 cases, 8 (21,5‰) of them women with AIT. 12,1% of children were born in a state of severe asphyxia, malnutrition with 31,3%, from 3,8% of the children at the end of 1st day intrauterine diagnosed pneumonia.

Conclusions. The high frequency of co-infection of HIV and herpes viruses, joining other infections and comorbidity in these women, their low social adaptation, and susceptibility to treatment, the negative impact of herpes infection in the course of HIV infection, the condition of women during pregnancy, the fetus and the newborn, which requires individual approach to the management of women based on established medical and social aspects of the problem.

Authors: Moreva Diana
Published: December 2021

Diseases of the circulatory system are the most common pathology in Ukraine and cover 26,2 mln. Population 12,3 mln ukrainians suffer from hypertension (AH). Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is recognized by the World Organization of Gastroenterology disease of the XXI century. Given the common risk factors for hypertension coronary heart disease (CHD) and the question of GERD studies of the combined flow of these diseases and to optimize the treatment of these patients.
The objective: to determine the characteristics of intracardiac hemodynamics in patients with hypertension combined with chronic ischemic heart disease on the background of GERD and the determination of the combined effects of antihypertensive and antireflux therapy on the structural-functional state of the left ventricular myocardium.
Patients and methods. We examined 107 patients aged 44 to 78 years, with an established diagnosis of hypertension stage I and II in combination with chronic ischemic heart disease. Research methods included anthropometric studies, biochemical blood analysis, ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, the daily ECG monitoring, esophagogas-troduodenoscopy (EGD), echocardiography (echocardiography), testing.
Results. Comorbidity for hypertension, chronic ischemic heart disease and GERD is associated with a higher frequency of abdominal type of obesity and the metabolic syndrome according to IDF criteria, significantly higher percentage of patients with grade II and III obesity. That in turn is reflected in the features of the structural1functional state of the left ventricle (LV), which manifests an increase in the number of patients with more severe degrees of left ventricular hypertrophy. Related GERD is associated with a large percentage of cases of concentric hypertrophy of the left ventricle, and a greater prevalence of diastolic dysfunction. The combination of antihypertensive and antireflux therapy for 12 weeks of treatment was reflected in the significant decrease in the weight of the index parameters of left ventricular myocardium (LVMI) and relative wall thickness index and reliable positive dynamics of indicators of left ventricular diastolic function.
Conclusion. Patients with hypertension combined with chronic ischemic heart disease with comorbidity with GERD have a higher prevalence of factors of cardiovascular risk.
Related GERD is associated with a more severe degree of left ventricular hypertrophy, with a large percentage of cases of concentric hypertrophy of the left ventricle, and a greater prevalence of diastolic dysfunction.
A combination of antihypertensive and antireflux therapy for 12 weeks of treatment promoted significant reduction in myocardial mass index indicators LV (LVMI) and relative wall thickness index and had a significant impact on the normalization of LV diastolic function.

The objective: to investigate the relationship between clinical manifestations of neuropsychological disorders and neuroimaging data (MRI) and electrophysiological (EEG mapping, somatosensory evoked potentials) methods of diagnosis in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) in the aspect of comorbidity.

Patients and methods. Achieved the clinical, neuropsychological, instrumental study 216 MS patients with the presence of (107) or absence (109) comorbid pathology. Spend a numerical score of neurological deficit symptoms (the FS scale) with the total score counting, defined EDSS level evaluated symptoms of fatigue (the FSS), pain (VAS), depression (BDI-II), the degree of cognitive impairment (MMSE). Implemented neyrovizualizuatsionnoe (MRI) study of the brain and spinal cord and EEG mapping study of electrical activity (EA) of the brain., somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEP).

Results. It is found that the presence of foci of demyelination in the brain stem in both groups correlated with the severity of the manifestations of depression BDI-II data. It also shows that about 65% of both groups of MS patients had signs of decrease ascending activating effects on the cortex from the reticular formation of the brainstem. It was found that 70% of MS patients in both groups there are irritative and hypersynchronous types EA brain, reducing the symptoms of seizure threshold, with the presence of a strong direct correlation between them and multimodal pain.

Conclusions. In the presence of comorbid disease in MS patients observed clinically deeper and more frequent manifestations of NPM, which is confirmed by the results of neuropsychological testing conducted. The presence of foci of demyelination in the cervical spinal cord was significantly more frequent in the MS group with comorbidity (p<0.05), and both groups of patients clinically directly correlates with the severity of pain according to VAS.

Authors: Mykytei Oksana
Published: December 2021

Daily monitoring of blood pressure (BP) shows chronic violation of circadian rhythm of blood pressure after the acute phase of stroke and shows a high sensitivity in assessing the prognosis of stroke. High rate variability is an independent predictor of cerebrovascular events and subsequent development of dementia. The study of the dynamics of neurological status depending on the type of circadian rhythm of blood pressure in patients with primary and secondary stroke is relevant, that was the purpose of our study. The study found that the analysis of the dynamics of the development of ischemic stroke is important, as obtained significant difference in patients with primary and secondary ischemic stroke (II). It is noted that the severity of neurological symptoms was significantly higher for patients with circadian rhythm JSC «non-dipper» compared with circadian rhythm JSC «dipper» (p <0.05), and nocturnal hypertension in acute II in patients with repeated II contributes to worsening of neurological symptoms after the 10th day of stroke that should be considered when choosing a treatment strategy.

Published: December 2021

The objective: To explore the features of acid level and aggravation in stomach and esophagus in patients with isolated GERD, hypertension and their comorbidity.
Patients and methods. For this study were selected 4 groups: group of patients with GERD, a group of patients with hypertension, the group of patients with comorbid hypertension and GERD and group without GERD and hypertension (total 78 patients). To all patients were performed 3-channel gastro esophageal pH monitoring. In our case, we conducted a 3-hour version of the survey with standardized provoking breakfast. All patients underwent assessment of gastric secretion by original integrative indicators that reflect basal pH, number of different types of refluxes, duration of alkalization in stomach after meal.
Results. GERD patients with hypertension and without are demonstrating an equal number of acid and all (nonacid + acid) reflux which is 18,9 against 19,8 (p>0,05). But the difference between the two groups was that in patients with concomitant hypertension observed longer refluxes 309,3 to 179,1 (p<0,05) and a total acid exposure tends to be prolonged – 25,9 to 20,9 (p>0,05).
Our analysis of the state of gastric secretion on the results of 2001 minute intra gastric pH monitoring, showed as expected more intensive acid in both groups of patients with GERD. The most «acidic» patients were GERD patients with hypertension, but compared with similar patients without hypertension, the difference was false due to the relatively small size of the samples.
Conclusion. Comorbidity of GERD and hypertension is characterized by severe pathological dysmotility in the lower third of the esophagus, unlike isolated GERD, which affects the increase in acid exposure and susceptibility to long reflux. A factor that may add to burden of GERD in combination with hypertension may be gastric hyperacidity and a clear predisposition to obesity.

Dichas acciones tuvieron el propósito de fortalecer el desarrollo de la ciencia psicológica en Latinoamérica cuando allí se producía la profesionalización disciplinar. Se recuperó un voluminoso corpus de fuentes inéditas posibilitando analizar más de 160 documentos institucionales y cartas entre académicos. Se describen los cursos dictados por Rimoldi y sus intentos de organizar un laboratorio en la Universidad de la República de Uruguay, entre 1951 y 1952. También, entre 1957 y 1969, se registran las colaboraciones entre Universidad Nacional de Córdoba, Universidad de Buenos Aires, CONICET, Universidad de Puerto Rico, Sociedad de Psicología de Puerto Rico y Universidad de Loyola. Con resultados disímiles, según los complejos contextos locales y los avatares institucionales, se reflejan procesos de profesionalización y de constitución de centros académicos orientados al desarrollo de una psicología como ciencia básica, autónoma, próxima a las ciencias naturales, que procura una formación universitaria centrada en la investigación y abierta a la agenda internacional.
Modelling eruptive source parameters in distributed volcanic fields

Published: December 2021

Vent opening hazard models are routinely used as inputs for assessing distal volcanic hazards (lava flows, tephra fallout) in distributed volcanic fields. These vent opening hazard models have traditionally relied on the location of mapped vents; seldom have they taken into account how vents are linked in space and time. We show that inputs needed to appropriately model distal hazards are fundamentally different than thoses required to model near-vent hazards (ground deformation). We provide a computational model to obtain more appropriate eruptive source parameters (ESPs) for distal volcanic hazard sources and show the utility of our code through three examples. The code's strength is that it links events based on the spatio-temporal relationships of vents through heirarchical clustering. The development of the code and its strenghts and weaknesses are discussed. This work challenges previous ideas about ESPs and we hope this work leads to further improvement in hazard assessment methods.

Authors: KÜÇÜKSARIYILDIZ Hanifi , ÇARMAN Kazım , SABANCI Kadir
Published: December 2021

In this study, specific fuel consumption was determined at different axle load, tire pressure and drawbar force for a 60 HP tractor. In addition, the results were also estimated with the help of Artificial Neural Networks (ANN), which is one of the machine learning methods. The testings were carried out on the Tractor Draft Test Track. In the study; three different drive tire inner pressures (P) (160 kPa, 120 kPa and 80 kPa), four different dynamic axle loads (W) (1796 daN, 2076 daN, 2276 daN, 2476 daN) and four different traction forces (500 daN,1000 daN, 1500 daN, 2000 daN) were tested. Specific fuel consump-tion values varied between 290.7-542.1 g/kWh depending on the draft force in the testings Despite the 38% increase in the axle load, a 3.5% decrease occurred in the specific fuel consumption values. Specific fuel consumption values in-creased when increased tire inner pressure. Specific fuel consumption in-creased by 1.03% when a 100% increase in tire pressure. In ANN, the most suc-cessful model was determined by trying different training algorithms, transfer functions and the number of neurons in the hidden layer. In the most successful network model, MAE, RMSE values for the prediction of specific fuel consump-tion were found to be 0.005331, 0.007551 respectively.

Authors: SANLİ Mert , YILMAZEL Yasemin Dilşad
Published: December 2021

Monitoring bathing water quality (BWQ) is highly important in Turkey both for public health issues and tourism income. Lake Van is one of the largest lakes of Turkey and serves as one of the most important tourist attractions in the eastern part of Turkey. This study aims to assess critical bathing sites in Lake Van by using historical BWQ data that was collected twice a month during the swimming season from June 15 to August 31, between the years 2010 and 2020. To avoid public health hazards, it is very important to determine the spatial dimension of inland water pollution and provide visual tools for its presentation. Geostatistical data analysis and the determination of critical locations have been done by a spatial interpolation method, named Probability Kriging (PK) using Geographic Information System (GIS) based software ArcMap 10. Probability maps for exceeding the threshold values identified for the two microbiological water quality parameters of Escherichia coli and intestinal enterococci (IE) were generated, and used for the identification of four critical regions: İskele (4), west side of Gevaş (1), Edremit (3) and Muradiye/Erciş (7). Insufficient wastewater treatment plant capacity serving to high population in these regions may indicate the most pressing issues disturbing the BWQ.

The results of the two evaluations showed that kindergarten and first-grade students who received a single semester of Reading Corps tutoring achieved significantly higher literacy assessment scores, and demonstrated meaningful and significant effects after a full-school year of the intervention for second- and third-grade students.
Critiquing Empire Through Desirability: A Review of 40 Years of Filipinx Americans in Education Research, 1980 to 2020
Authors: Maramba Dina C. , Curammeng Edward R. , Hernandez Xavier J.
Published: December 2021

There is a paucity of research on the educational experiences of Filipinx Americans, the second-largest Asian American group in the United States. Studies that do exist often lump Filipinxs with other Asian Americans or present them devoid of critical contexts that shape their experience, namely, colonialism and racialization. Using a desire-based framework and empire as an analytic, we conducted a semi-systematic review of 74 journal articles to better understand how Filipinx Americans are presented in the research. Our analysis suggests that researchers often position Filipinx Americans relative to whiteness or utilize critical educational framings to interrogate the complex ways they are racialized. We offer implications for research focused on Filipinx Americans and minoritized groups. We conclude by discussing the utility of interdisciplinary research as well as the necessity for desirability and empire as a lens for future education research.

CLSM is widely used as a replacement for soil-cement material in many geotechnical applications such as structural backfill, pipeline beddings, void fill, pavement bases and bridge approaches. This paper study potential possibility of polypropylene fiber in CLSM. Harden and fresh properties compressive strength , flowability and density for the proposed CLSM were investigated. This CLSM mix design with different percentage of polypropylene fiber and pond ash, cement and water. EPS beats and polypropylene add 0 %, 0.5%, 1.0% and 1.5% of total weight is added in CLSM MIx. Results show that the CLSM incorporating EPS beats and polypropylene satisfies compressive strength requirement as per the requirements of ACI committee 229. polypropylene decreases the flowability of CLSM mix and at the same tine by adding EPS beats the density of CLSM mix are reduce which become lightweight CLSM mix. from this it can conclude that polypropylene fibers is less effective in CLSM mix and EPS beats make CLSM mix lightweight which create lightweight CLSM mix applicable for filling application.

The production possibility of protective films of higher carboxylic (lauric, stearic (SA), oleic and linolenic) acids on a laser-textured surface of an aluminum alloy D16 is discussed. It is shown that such a modification leads to superhydrophobization (SHP) of the alloy surface. The most optimal type of laser processing has been determined: laser power is 12 W and the pass speed is 1000 mm / s. Profilometric measurements determined the average size of surface irregularities which is 6,47 microns. The degradation results of the SHP state in an aqueous solution of 0,05 M NaCl indicate greater stability of films formed from SA solutions. The protective ability of the coatings was evaluated by polarization measurements and corrosion tests in a salt chamber. It was found that films formed from an SA solution had the best anticorrosive properties. According to polarization measurements, an increase in ΔEpt = 220 mV, and the time of the first corrosion damage appears τcor = 384 h.
Semantic shifts in Slavic time designations

The concept of time is one of the central concepts in numerous humanitarian and natural science studies. Hence, the question arises about the criteria for describing the vocabulary of time, its classification and comparison in different languages, or about those relevant properties of time, manifested by the vocabulary, which, taken in their system, could act as a kind of matrix for contrastive research. The linguistic aspect of the study of the perception of time is largely determined by the answers to the question of how it is reflected in the vocabulary. In the nomination of time as a generic concept, as well as its periods, it is possible to see certain semantic shifts within the framework of polysemy.
Russ. сбагрить and багор in Slavic environment
Authors:   Lomonosov Moscow State University, Varbot Zhanna Zh.
Published: December 2021

The existence of formally and semantically corresponding words in cognate languages is very important for etymologisation of each Russian word. Russian colloquial and dialectal verb сбáгрить ‘remove something, somebody; get rid of something, somebody’ has such formal correspondings only in Bulgarian сбàгря, сбàгрям ‘make, arrange’. These correspondings were not analysed earlier. Bulgarian verbs сбàгря, сбàгрям are thought to be derivatives of Bulgarian dialectal verb багòря ‘make slowly’, known along the borderline with the Rumanian language and derived from borrowed Rumanian verb băgáre ‘thrusting, placing’. Russian сбáгрить is known mostly in northern dialects. Thus mutual borrowing of either Bulgarian verb or Russian verb seems to be inconceivable. Russian verb сбáгрить is concidered to be a derivative from the substantive багóр. Slavic багóр / bahor is known with different meanings: in Russian and Ukrainian ‘pole with crooked end’ and in Slovak ‘part of felloe; upper (moving) millstone’. These two meanings allow to presuppose different origin. The derivation from Common Slavonic *bag- ‘run’ is probable for Slovak word bahor. Semantics of Russian, Ukrainian багор does not allow the same. The most probable origin for Russian and Ukrainian багор is a German borrowing Baggert ‘subsidiary port worker’ that is a derivative from Dutch borrowing baggeren ‘clean bottom, deepen waterway’. The population of Russian North could borrow Baggert as the name of instrument by contacts with sailors of German merchant ships. Compare Arkhangelsk dialectal бáгрень ‘channel for ships cut through ice’. Everything said about the origin of Bulgarian сбàгря and Russian сбáгрить allows to define this correspondence as heterogeneous homonymie.

The Transcarpathian village of Russkaya Mokraya is located in the historic North Maramorosh region and has been known since the 17th century. The published texts were recorded during the expedition of the Institute of Slavic Studies in 1995 and contain mainly stories about the period of World War II, the Hungarian-German occupation, relations with the Hungarian administration and historical German and Jewish neighbors, deportation of Jews. The introduction briefly describes the phonetics of the dialect and its place on the dialectological map.
Estimation of Spatial Groundwater Recharge Using WetSpass Model for East Wasit Province, Iraq

AbstractGroundwater is an important water source, especially in arid and semi-arid areas. Recharge is critical to managing and analyzing groundwater resources despite estimation difficulty due to temporal and spatial change. The study aim is to estimate annual groundwater recharge for the eastern Wasit Province part, Iraq. Where suffers from a surface water shortage due to the region's high elevation above Tigris River water elevation by about 60 m, it is necessary to search for alternative water sources, such as groundwater use. The spatially distributed WetSpass model was used to estimate the annual recharge. The inputs for the model were prepared using the ARC-GIS program, which includes the topography and slope grid, soil texture grid, land use, groundwater level grid, and meteorological data grids for the study area for the period (2014-2019). The result shows that the annual recharge calculated using the WetSpass model (2014-2019) varied of 0 to 65.176 mm/year at an average of 27.117 mm/year, about 10.8%, while the rate of the surface runoff was 5.2% and Evapotranspiration formed 83.33% of the annual rainfall rate of 251.192 mm. The simulation results reveal that the WetSpass model simulates the components of the hydrological water budget correctly. For managing and planning available water resources, a best grasp of the simulation of long-range average geographical distribution around the water balance components is beneficial.

Currently the development of children is the center of attention for families and schools, where at this time technology or social media in the current digital era has a very good and bad impact on children if parents and teachers do not monitor children in using social media. the impact of the misuse of technology, it must continue to guide children. Education in schools is very helpful for the growth and development of children. Because children who receive education at school understand more about some of the things that can be learned at school and children's behavior is more functional because it is shaped by observation and influenced by what they get. When parents or teachers educate children well, the child's association will be better. Because nowadays, especially the use of technology or social media, it really has an impact on children.

Laporan keuangan merupakan ringkasan suatu proses pencatatan transaksi-transaksi keuangan yang terjadi selama tahun buku yang bersangkutan. Laporan keuangan harus disusun berdasarkan prinsip akuntansi yang lazim agar para pembaca laporan keuangan memperoleh gambaran yang jelas.Laporan keuangan yang biasa disusun manajemen biasanya terdiri dari neraca,laporan rugi laba, laporan perubahan modal, laporan arus kas dan catatan ataslaporan keuangan. Semuanya tersebut memiliki fungsi dan tujuannya masing-masing. Untuk itu, kita harus bisa membuat laporan keuangan yang sesuai dengan standar yang telah ditetapkan agar mudah dipahami oleh para pihak yang membutuhkan laporan keuangan tersebut.Penyusunan laporan keuangan memiliki peranan yang sangat penting dalam suatu perusahaan. Sebab laporan keuangan merupakan dasar dalam menentukan atau menilai posisi keuangan perusahaan. Darmawan (2012:1) mengemukakan bahwa laporan keuangan tersebut bertujuan sebagai laporan yang ditujukan kepada berbagai pengguna laporan keuangan yang memiliki kebutuhan informasi tentang keuangan secara umum yang tidak memiliki hak untuk meminta laporan keuangan tersebut dan disesuaikan untuk memenuhi kebutuhan informasi tertentu. Nantinya informasi tersebut digunakan sebagai acuan dalam pertimbangan dan pengambilan keputusan baik untuk pihak internal perusahaan maupun pihak eksternal perusahaan.

Privatizations Spark Socialist Backlash: Evidence from East Germany’s Transformation
Authors: Hager Anselm , Hennicke Moritz , Krause Werner , Mergele Lukas
Published: December 2021

The fall of the Berlin Wall marks one of the largest transformations of the 20th century. At its core, the year 1990 brought two new systems to Eastern Europe: capitalism and democracy. Yet, to this day, Eastern Europeans show distinctly negative attitudes toward the Western world order, and democratic and market institutions across the region are far from perfect. What explains this unsuccessful transformation? This paper points to the rushed privatization of East European economies as one plausible driver of citizens’ discontent with capitalism and democracy. Using micro-level data from East Germany, we show that firm privatizations led to a marked resurgence of the successor of the former Socialist Unity Party as early as 1994. We argue that this effect is likely due to perceived injustice: Socialist voting thrived whenever firms were sold to Western elites, which local residents took as a sign that capitalism is not meritocratic.
