Published: July 2023

Currently, the training of doctors to provide primary health care is one of the priority areas of medical education. In the paper, from the standpoint of the requirements of the continuity principle, the results of the analysis of the academic courses programs content are presented. They ensure the development of students skills to perform labor functions in the preventive activities of a doctor. They are implemented at the faculties where the major is 31.05.01 General Medicine and 31.08.49 Therapy in medical universities subordinate to the Ministry of Health of Russia, included in the top 20 best medical universities, according to the RAEX ranking (March 2022). A comparative analysis was carried out between the content of academic courses and the content of the labor functions of doctors: Conducting medical, preventive medical examinations, medical examinations, dispensary observation of patients with diseases and (or) conditions in the "therapy" and monitoring the effectiveness of dispensary observation measures and Carrying out measures for the prevention and formation of a healthy lifestyle and sanitary and hygienic education of the population. The criteria for assessing the compliance of the content of the programs with the requirements of the above-mentioned labor functions of the professional standard Therapist were: 1) the presence in the curriculum of the courses that provide training of students to perform the specified labor functions; 2) the presence in the content of academic courses of knowledge that ensures the development of the necessary skills of a doctor in the performance of these labor functions; 3) the structure and content of the programs for preparing students for preventive activities are developed in accordance with the requirements of the principle of continuity. According to the results of the study, it has been revealed that general theoretical knowledge of prevention, as a set of measures aimed at maintaining and strengthening the health of the population, promoting a healthy lifestyle and preventing the occurrence and (or) spread of diseases, are included in the training programs for doctors majoring in 31.05.01 General Medicine. However, the development of students skills in performing the above labor functions is unsystematic, which leads to a violation of the continuity of different levels of medical education in preparing doctors for primary health care.

Currently, the problem of ecological culture is becoming generally recognized. The ecological direction in the system of higher professional education in the process of prospective teachers ecological culture formation is a noticeable factor. There is a need to systematize ecological and natural science pedagogical education: there is a change of axiological systems, cultural norms and values among the modern younger generation, the issues of ecological culture formation among students of pedagogical universities are not fully considered. The state educational standard of higher professional pedagogical education emphasizes the primary task to form the teachers personality with a high ecological culture, striving for harmonious interaction with the natural environment, a personality that is distinguished by the presence of attitudes, beliefs, and the need for activities to preserve and improve nature. There is a need for the dominant role and responsibility of prospective teachers in solving the issues of ecological culture formation among young people who are able to form a personality that is distinguished by the presence of beliefs of a conscious, careful, responsible attitude to the natural environment. In this regard, the need to increase attention to ecological culture formation among students of pedagogical universities becomes significant at the socio-pedagogical level. Ecological culture is not a specific type, but an integral part and level of human culture as a whole. The priority role in ecological culture formation among students belongs to the natural sciences, which form the foundation of the scientific understanding of the world. At the stage of modern university education, the ecological culture of youth develops on the principles of unity of the historical relationship between the natural environment and society, the social conditionality of the individuals relationship to nature, and the desire to harmonize these relations. The diversity of interaction between society and nature determines the complexity of environmental education, its main principles: a transdisciplinary approach to ecological culture formation, systematic and continuous study of scientific material, the unity of mental and emotional-volitional principles in the activities of students to study and improve the natural environment; the relationship of global and local environmental problems. This is emphasized by many scientists. The leading role in prospective teachers ecological culture formation is played by the educational environment of the university.

The problem of choosing methodological bases in developing modern learning materials for students of higher education institutions
Authors: Khismatulina Natalya Vladimirovna , Pugacheva Svetlana Aleksandrovna , Malkova Tatiana Viacheslavovna
Published: July 2023

The present research deals with the problem of developing modern learning materials for students of higher education institutions. The authors emphasize that in the traditions of the Russian educational system, the pedagogical staff itself is charged with implementing this educational and methodological direction, that is why textbooks are often created intuitively, based on personal professional experience, sometimes with no scientific basis. This fact raises the question of the need for a deep analysis of scientific researches in this sphere to determine the principles in designing a particular educational publication and reasonably choose methodological bases. The authors have attempted to structure the revealed methodological bases (pedagogical approaches) depending on the idea and the functional strategic goal of education itself. Two groups of basic approaches and their derivatives are singled out and described: competence approach, aimed at the formation of a standard specialist in the professional sphere and implemented mainly through activity-based educational technologies contextual approach, problem-based learning, task-based approach; and humanitarian and anthropological approach, aimed at personal growth of a student in his entirety (personality-oriented approach, andragogical approach), disclosure of his potential, his work with personal meanings (hermeneutic approach, euristic approach), formation of his own world picture, realization of his individual educational trajectory. In the end, the authors make a conclusion that it is necessary to combine the approaches of different nature in developing the concept of learning materials, as the exclusion of one of the components will significantly limit the potential opportunities in the personal and professional growth of students.
Coal Image Recognition Method Based on Improved Semantic Segmentation Model of PSPNET Network
Authors: Gao Jianqin , Cui Kaihua
Published: July 2023

To implement the intelligence and automation of coal mines, coal recognition plays a crucial role. In order to further improve the accuracy and speed of intelligent coal recognition, this paper proposes a semantic segmentation model based on an improved PSPNET network. (1) The lightweight MobilenetV2 module is used as the backbone feature extraction network. Compared to traditional networks, it has fewer parameters while achieving higher recognition accuracy and speed.(2) The Convolutional Block Attention Module (CBAM) is introduced into the Pyramid Pooling Module (PPM) to enhance the network's ability to extract detailed features and effectively fuse spatial and channel information, thus improving the segmentation accuracy of the model.(3) Data augmentation and image feature enhancement methods are employed to overcome sample distribution differences, enhance model generalization, and adapt to coal-rock recognition tasks in different application scenarios. The proposed approach is tested on a self-made coal segmentation dataset and compared with the unimproved PSPNET, Hernet, U-net, and DeeplabV3+ models in terms of Mean Intersection over Union (Miou), recognition accuracy, edge detail recognition, model size, and parameter count. Experimental results demonstrate that compared to other models, the improved PSPNET network not only has lower computational complexity and parameter count but also exhibits stronger coal detail feature extraction capability, higher segmentation accuracy, and better processing efficiency.Finally, the improved PSPNET model was trained and tested on a coal rock image segmentation dataset with image feature enhancement.The accuracy, MIU and MPA of the improved PSPNET network reached 65.04, 73.15 and 74.27 respectively.It can be seen that the improved network has superior feature extraction ability and computational efficiency to achieve coal surface image recognition. This verifies the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method in the actual coal rock image recognition task.

Authors: Samburskaya S. А.
Published: July 2023

The sphere of information security in Kazakhstan affects an increasing number of industries every year, and penetration testing is also gaining popularity, as it is one of the key methods for assessing the security and risks of a company. This article is devoted to the research and development of a web application to provide full control over the penetration testing process: monitoring the implementation of tasks and projects, reporting on all processes, dividing tasks between employees. The management system automatically selects recommendations for eliminating vulnerabilities and generates reports on penetration testing. As a classification algorithm, a decision tree is used. Differentiation of users by access levels, structured data storage, automatic recording of test results, generation of reports and selection of recommendations for eliminating vulnerabilities make the web application more perfect and convenient compared to similar systems. The importance of this study lies in the simplification of the implementation of penetration testing and the development of this service in Kazakhstan, which will improve the level of information security in enterprises of all industries.
PROPERTIES OF HYPERGRAPHS OF MODELS OF WEAKLY O-MINIMAL THEORIES
Authors: Kulpeshov B. Sh.
Published: July 2023

In this paper, we study the notions of relative H-freedom and relative H-independence for hypergraphs of models of weakly o-minimal theories. Hypergraphs of models of a theory are derived objects that allow obtaining essential structural information both about the theories themselves and about related semantic objects. Recall that a hypergraph is any pair of sets (X, Y), where Y is some subset of the Boolean P(X) of a set X. In this case, the set X is called the support of the hypergraph (X, Y), and elements from Y are called edges of the hypergraph (X, Y). Weak o-minimality was originally deeply investigated by D. Macpherson, D. Marker, and C. Steinhorn. In the nineties of the last century, Kazakhstan scientists successfully joined the study of this concept, solving a number of problems posed by the authors. In this paper, we continue the study of model-theoretic properties of weakly o-minimal structures. A criterion for relative H-freedom of the set of realizations of non-algebraic 1-type in almost omega-categorical weakly o-minimal theories is obtained in terms of convexity rank. We also establish a criterion for relative H-independence of the sets of realizations of two non-algebraic 1-types in almost omega-categorical weakly o-minimal theories in terms of weak orthogonality of 1-types.
APPROXIMATIONS OF THE THEORIES OF STRUCTURES WITH ONE EQUIVALENCE RELATION
Authors: Markhabatov N. D.
Published: July 2023

Recently, various methods similar to the “transfer principle” have been rapidly developing, where one property of a structure or pieces of this structure is satisfied in all infinite structures or in another algebraic structure. Such methods include smoothly approximable structures, holographic structures, almost sure theories, and pseudofinite structures approximable by finite structures. Pseudofinite structures are mathematical structures that resemble finite structures but are not actually finite. They are important in various areas of mathematics, including model theory and algebraic geometry. Pseudofinite structures are a fascinating area of mathematical logic that bridge the gap between finite and infinite structures. They allow studying infinite structures in ways that resemble finite structures, and they provide a connection to various other concepts in model theory. Further studying pseudofinite structures will continue to reveal new insights and applications in mathematics and beyond. Pseudofinite theory is a branch of mathematical logic that studies structures that are similar in some ways to finite structures, but can be infinitely large in other ways. It is an area of research that lies at the intersection of model theory and number theory and deals with infinite structures that share some properties with finite structures, such as having only finitely many elements up to isomorphism. A. Lachlan introduced the concept of smoothly approximable structures in order to change the direction of analysis from finite to infinite, that is, to classify large finite structures that seem to be smooth approximations to an infinite limit. The theory of pseudofinite structures is particularly relevant for studying equivalence relations. In this paper, we study the model-theoretic property of the theory of equivalence relations, in particular, the property of smooth approximability. Let L = {E}, where Е is an equivalence relation. We prove that an any ω-categorical L-structure M is smoothly approximable. We also prove that any infinite L-structure M is pseudofinite.

Published: July 2023

This study evaluated the protective effect of an aqueous leaf extract of Vernonia amygdalina on the kidney functions and histological architecture of gentamicin-induced nephrotoxicity in adult Wistar rats. Twenty-five (25) Wistar rats were divided into five groups (groups 1–5), with five rats in each group. Group 1 served as the normal control. Group 2 was the negative control and received 40 mg/kg of body weight of gentamicin. Groups 3, 4, and 5 received an aqueous extract of V. amygdalina at doses of 100 mg, 200 mg, and 400 mg/kg of body weight, respectively, for 21 days. The gentamicin was administered intraperitoneally for 14 days, starting on day 8, while the aqueous leaf extract was given orally. There was a significant (P< 0.05) increase or derangement in the serum levels of urea, creatinine, and potassium in group 2 when compared to the normal control. The groups that received the extract of V. amygdalina showed a significant (P<0.05) reduction in the levels of deranged serum urea, creatinine, and potassium compared to group 2. The kidney histological photomicrograph of group 2 was characterized by epitheloid granulomas, glomerular necrosis, and severe nephrotic tissue degeneration. The groups treated with the extract showed significant protection against these alterations. The protection was found to be dose-dependent. It was discovered that V. amygdalina had a dose-dependent protective effect against kidney damage caused by gentamycin toxicity.

Pain and inflammation are the major devastating health problems commonly treated with NSAIDs. NSAIDs are regularly employed to relieve pain and inflammation. However, the 1,2,4-triazole derivatives have been scientifically evaluated for their use in relieving pain and inflammation. The current research plan is to explore the analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties of 1,2,4-triazole derivatives. 1,2,4-triazoles was tested for their anti-inflammatory properties using carrageenan and formalin-induced paw oedema, acetic acid-induced writhing investigation, while its peripheral and central analgesic actions were assessed using the hot plate method and Carrageenan induced Air Pouch model respectively. The test compounds were administrated at dose of 55 mg/Kg. The standard Diclofenac drug was administrated at dose of 10 mg/Kg for Acetic acid induced writhing investigation, Anti-inflammatory activity and 10 mg/Kg dose of pentazocine was administrated for hot plate method. Rats given with distilled water (10 mL/kg) were designated as the negative controls. Oral administration of all treatments was used. Evaluation of the analgesic and anti-inflammatory investigation showed that the second compound (5-(4-nitrophenyl)-1-phenyl-1H-1,2,4-triazole-3-(2H)–one declines the number of abdominal cramps caused by 1�etic acid and increases the time of response in hot plate method and decreased the edema induced by carrageenan, formalin also decreased volume of exudates in air pouch model. The results of the research indicate that compound 5-(4-nitrophenyl)-1-phenyl-1H-1,2,4-triazole-3-(2H)-one has shown more effective analgesic and Anti-inflammatory properties than the other two compounds.
A preliminary study on the effects of human microRNAs on gut microbiota
Authors: Mishra Silvash Prasad , Avvari Ravi Kant
Published: July 2023

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play a key role in disease manifestation, metabolic processes and immune regulation and modulation of the host. MiRNAs can be found in abundance in fecal samples of humans and are present in intracellular, extracellular fluid and extracellular vesicles. Abundance of miRNAs is found to be in ileal lumen as compared to the colon, whereas gut microbiota is more in colon, not in ileum. Still the effect of miRNA is found where the gut microbiota is more, which is by co-localizing with the nucleic acid of the bacteria. Some human miRNAs can regulate the non-coding RNAs in bacterial species like Escherichia coli and Fusobacterium nucleatum by entering into the bacterial cell in the intestine. By repressing the activity of the noncoding RNAs of intestinal bacterial species, human miRNAs bring about the increase or decrease in population of gut microbiota. With the change in the population of the certain microbiota species in the intestine, the host becomes more susceptible to the dysbiosis and becomes vulnerable to intestinal localization of pathogenic bacteria causing diseases like inflammatory bowel disease. With the usage of bioinformatics tool, this study has deepened into interaction of human miRNA and E. coli non-coding RNA, thereby opening up a detailed analysis into interaction of host with its gut microbiome and how the interaction is responsible for diseases in host.
Gandhian Thought for Rural Development
Authors: Zeeshan Shaikh , Kappiarathel Shahsoor Muhammad
Published: July 2023

This paper focuses on the role of Mahatma Gandhi in promoting the concept of Gram Vikas or rural development. Mahatma Gandhi was a visionary leader who believed that the key to India's progress lay in the development of its villages. He advocated for selfsufficiency and decentralization as fundamental to achieving rural development and called for the use of local resources and skills to promote sustainable and equitable growth. Gandhiji firmly believed that the well-being of India's society was directly connected to the development of its rural areas. The study examines how Gandhiji's philosophy of nonviolence and education influenced his vision of rural development. He emphasized the importance of promoting cottage industries, handicrafts, and the use of renewable energy sources to create employment opportunities and improve the quality of life for rural communities. Gandhiji's ideas of Gram Vikas are seen as a holistic approach to rural development, encompassing social, economic, and environmental aspects. This work highlight the relevance of his ideas in the context of modern-day challenges such as poverty, unemployment, and environmental degradation. The promotion of Gram Vikas or rural development is seen as a way to address these challenges and create a more equitable and sustainable society. The promotion of Gram Vikas or rural development is essential to achieving this goal, and the principles underlying Gandhiji's vision of rural development can be seen as a way to promote constitutional values of democracy, social justice and equality such as the right to education and gender equality. This paper emphasizes the importance of integrating Gandhian principles in rural development policy and policymakers adopting Gandhi's principles to achieve sustainable rural development. By incorporating these principles into policy formulation and implementation, policymakers can promote equitable and sustainable growth in rural communities. The paper concludes that policymakers must prioritize sustainability to achieve long lasting progress in rural areas and to retain this progress involvement of community and sustainable use of resources is necessary.

Sea buckthorn is becoming an increasingly popular medicinal plant. This plant material contains many nutrients and bioactive substances used in the food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries. Compounds found in the organs of this plant have antiviral, antibacterial, and antifungal properties, but, despite these features, sea buckthorn is affected by many pathogens. As shown by studies on the health and presence of pathogenic fungi on the aboveground organs of this plant, no obligatory pathogens and Basidiomycota fungi were found in 2019. The mycological analysis of the aboveground organs, i.e. leaves, fruits, and shoots, showed that Alternaria alternata was the most frequent species of fungi isolated from all examined organs. Moreover, the Monilinia fructigena and Botrytis cinerea species were often isolated from fruits and Cladosporium cladosporioides fungus was found on leaves. Numerous isolates of the pathogenic Fusarium sporotrichiodes fungus and single isolates of Phomopsis spp., i.e. fungi causing gangrene and drying out of the bark of shoots and the bark of many fruit plant species, and Nigrospora oryzae causing leaf blotch of herbaceous plants and fruit trees were obtained from the examined organs of the sea buckthorn. The mycological analysis revealed no species of the genus Verticillium, universally recognized as the most dangerous to this plant.

The potential for increasing soybean productivity and reducing diseases has become evident for Bacillus spp. The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of B. subtilis strain UFMT-Pant001 as a plant growth promoter in soybean under greenhouse conditions. Four independent experiments were conducted in a greenhouse using a B. subtilis UFMT-Pant001 liquid inoculant at 1x109 CFU mL-1. The results showed significant increases in biomass, nodulation, nutrients in the shoot, number of internodes, and root length in soybean cultivars inoculated with B. subtilis UFMT-Pant001 in greenhouse experiments. Positive effects on soybean biomass and other evaluated characteristics were observed with different doses of B. subtilis UFMT-Pant001, with the best results observed when doses of 200 to 300 mL were used for 50 kg of seeds. The use of B. subtilis UFMT-Pant001 did not interfere with soybean nodulation and contributed to an increase in nodule number and weight.
Ecocídio na década da restauração da ONU: o desafio do crime contra a humanidade na realidade do direito internacional ambiental
Authors: Batista Vanessa Gama Pacheco , Gontijo André Pires
Published: July 2023

Artigo científico no âmbito do direito internacional ambiental e do direito penal internacional sobre o ecocídio, no contexto da Década de Restauração proposta pela Organização das Nações Unidas (ONU), ser considerado uma espécie de crime contra a humanidade. Por meio da metodologia exploratória, a pesquisa busca consolidar o ecocídio - no Direito Internacional Ambiental - como crime contra a humanidade, a partir da revisão do histórico, dos princípios e das normas basilares do Direito Internacional do Meio Ambiente; os Danos Ambientais e Ecológicos com enfoque na responsabilidade e reparação internacional; os Direitos Humanos e o Meio Ambiente; e, para consolidar o argumento, o ecocídio como crime contra a humanidade, percorrendo pelo seu conceito e breve histórico, finalizando com uma análise do ecocídio como desafio à Década de Restauração da ONU – de 2021 a 2030. Como resultado, o Tribunal Penal Internacional (TPI) cogita ampliar sua jurisdição, sem prévia mudança do Estatuto de Roma, conferindo uma interpretação extensiva aos crimes contra a humanidade, ao pressupor o ecocídio, em muitos casos, como causa de tanto sofrimento quanto as guerras.
From Rambling to Elevated Walkways: Piecemeal Planning Histories in National Parks
Authors: O’Rourke Timothy , Sully Nicole , Chaddock Steve
Published: July 2023

From the late nineteenth century, ramblers, trampers and bushwalkers have been instrumental in the creation of national parks. Their advocacy combined interests in nature conservation with recreational pursuits, heralding the two competing and often contradictory purposes of national park estates. In Australia, protected wilderness areas were invariably repositories of sacred sites linked by networks of walking pads across landscapes shaped by millennia of Indigenous occupation. From the mid-twentieth century, new infrastructure was required in national parks to cater for the growth in tourism. In Australia, the state-based system of “national” parks resulted in an uneven approach to both the creation of protected areas and the design of infrastructure for the hosts and guests. This approach was in marked contrast to the United States, where the Mission 66 program – approved by Congress in 1955 – resulted in a decade-long programme of expenditure on infrastructure that established the reputation of their national park system, and ensured a systematic national approach.

This paper examines the piecemeal history of planning for bushwalkers in Australian national parks through a comparison of competing interests – the minimal needs of the self-sufficient rambler with infrastructure that caters for diverse tourism experiences. Australian case studies illustrate a contested but changing approach to planning for pedestrians in protected areas, from the making of tracks by volunteers and depression-era work gangs to elevated walks through forest canopies. A historical analysis highlights the changing attitudes to tourism and conservation challenges, now informed by greater knowledge of ecology and the belated recognition of Indigenous ownership and pre-colonial land management regimes. Threats to the biodiversity in protected areas suggest that a planning approach, which combines multiple disciplines and interests, will increasingly elevate both the bushwalker and tourist in their experience of nature.
North Korean Aesthetics within a Colonial Urban Form: Monuments to Independence and Democracy in Windhoek, Namibia
Authors: Roland Stephanie , Stevens Quentin
Published: July 2023

This paper examines two high-profile commemorative spaces in Namibia’s national capital, Windhoek, designed and constructed by North Korean state-owned enterprise Mansudae Overseas Projects. These commemorative projects illustrate the complex and evolving intersections between public art, architecture and urban form in this post-colonial context. They show how sites designed around heritage and collective identity intersect with urban space’s physical development and everyday use. The projects also illustrate the intersecting histories of three aesthetic lineages: German, South African and North Korean. This paper will show how these commemorative spaces embody North Korean urban space ideas while also developing new national symbols, historical narratives and identities within Windhoek’s urban landscape as part of independent Namibia’s nation-building. The monument’s ‘Socialist Realist’ aesthetic signals a conscious departure from the colonial and apartheid eras by the now-independent Namibian government.

This paper extends prior research focused on the symbolism of Mansudae’s monumental schemes by analysing these monuments’ design, placement, public reception and use within Windhoek as they relate to the city’s overall development since Namibia’s independence in 1990. By documenting the form, location and decision-making processes for the Mansudae-designed memorials in Windhoek and historical changes in their spatial and political context, the paper explores the interaction between North Korean political ideology and design approaches and Namibia’s democratic ambitions for city-making. The paper’s mapping analysis spatially compares the sculptural, architectural and urban design strategies of Mansudae’s additions to Windhoek’s City Crown (2010-14) to Pyongyang’s Mansu Hill Grand Monument (1972-2011), and Windhoek’s Heroes’ Acre (2002) to Mansudae’s earlier National Martyrs Cemetery outside Pyongyang (1975-85).
