IMPLEMENTATION OF V. SUKHOMLYNSKYI’S MAIN IDEAS IN THE MODERN SYSTEM OF TEACHER EDUCATION
Authors: Kravchenko I. , Maslo Yu.
Published: December 2022

The article analyzes the main pedagogical ideas of V. Sukhomlynskyi concerning the training of a teacher of modern Ukrainian school. The pedagogical heritage of Vasyl Sukhomlynskyi is revealed, namely, “The 100 Advices to the Teacher” as a guide to actions in the system of preparation of future teachers at universities.It is determined that a teacher in the broad social sense is a thinker, a public figure who shapes the views and convictions of people, helps them to find their way in life. In a pedagogical sense it is a specialist who conducts studying and educational work with pupils in the secondary comprehensive schools. A teacher is a person who learns all his life.The pedagogical skill is considered as the highest level of pedagogical activity (if qualitative indicators of the result are characterized), as the manifestation of the creative activity of the teacher’s personality (if the psychological mechanism of successful activity is characterized). The future teacher at a pedagogical university acquires theoretical knowledge through the teaching, as well as practical skills.The process of learning is characterized – purposeful, specially organized process of interaction between teacher and student (teaching and learning), the purpose of which is to receive education (knowledge and skills).The article also mentions the tasks of the teacher of the pedagogical university. It consists of the interest of future teachers in their subject, as well as in the creation of a student’s inner need to self-learning, which plays an important role in shaping of the pedagogical skill of the personality.The article emphasizes the importance of acquiring the appropriate skills in the system of future teacher training. It is noted that during the period of study at the university, students have several types of practice. For the first time after the second year of studying students are allocated for summer practice in camps. After this practice, in the majority of students the motivation to the theoretical knowledge increases and appears an additional awareness of the importance and responsibility of teaching activities in the future. The article generalizes the main pedagogical ideas of V. Sukhomlynskyi, which are described in the “The 100 Advices to the Teacher” and included in the theory and practice of the national pedagogical thought. It is still a guide to the action in preparation of the teacher of the modern Ukrainian school.

Authors: Pratiwi Gani
Published: December 2022

Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus patients can cause oxidative stress which can trigger complications, namely cardiovascular disease. Increased levels of total cholesterol can cause atherosclerosis which can cause blockage of blood vessels so that it becomes one of the causes of cardiovascular disease. Atherosclerosis can cause inflammation and tissue damage so that the result of this inflammation causes an increase in levels of High sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (Hs-CRP). High sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (Hs-CRP) can be called the most significant predictor of inflammation markers of the risk of cardiovascular events. The purpose of this study was to determine the correlation between total cholesterol levels and levels of High sensitivity C Reactive Protein (Hs-CRP) in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. This type of research was an analytical observation using a cross sectional approach.  The results of statistical analysis using a non-parametric spearman rank test from the correlation test, the significance value of 24 samples was 0.392, then p0.05 the  Correlation Coefficient was -0.183, which means that there is no correlation between total cholesterol levels and Hs-CRP levels in people with diabetes mellitus type 2 which is weakly correlated.

The COVID-19 pandemic is still ongoing around the world. The rapid and easy development and validation of diagnostic methods is a top priority in response to the handling of the COVID-19 pandemic. The study aimed to evaluate the performance of the SARS-CoV-2 Antigen Rapid Diagnostic Test (RDT-Ag). The RDT-Ag kits evaluated in the study were RDT-Ag VD, RDT-Ag GB kits, and RDT-Ag TS kits that included sensitivity and specificity values. rRT-PCR and RDT-Ag tests use 90 samples of the same nasopharyngeal or oropharyngeal swab. The samples included 30 positive samples (Ct ≤ 25), 30 positive samples (Ct 25), and 30 negative samples. Then, the results of rRT-PCR are used as a standard reference for RDT-Ag evaluation. RDT-Ag VD kit obtained 80% sensitivity in the positive sample group with a Ct value of ≤25, and 10% in the positive sample group with a Ct value of 25 with 93.3% specificity. The RDT-Ag GB kit obtained 70% sensitivity in the positive sample group with a Ct value of ≤ 25, and 10% in the positive sample group with a Ct value of 25 with 100% specificity. The RDT-Ag TS kit obtained 93.3% sensitivity in the positive sample group with a Ct value of ≤25, and 20% in the positive sample group with a Ct value of 25 with 100% specificity. The sensitivity of RDT-Ag compared to the rRT-PCR results increased in the sample with a Ct value of ≤25 ( 70%) and its sensitivity decreased dramatically in the sample with a Ct value of  25 ( 20%).

Authors: Rinawati Luh Putu , Bekti Heri Setiyo
Published: December 2022

Backgrounds of hemoglobin is a metalloprotein in red blood cells that functions as an oxygen booster from the lungs to the rest of the body. To maintain hemoglobin levels in the body, especially in pregnant women, it is necessary to have adequate intake of nutrients, namely iron. If the intake of iron in pregnant women is less, it will increase the risk of anemia. Anemia is a condition or condition that causes low levels of hemoglobin (Hb). Albuminuria or proteinuria is a condition in which urine or urine contains an abnormal amount of albumin. Throughout pregnancy, pregnant women are usually advised to take a urine test. One of the focuses of the urine test is to determine urine protein levels in pregnant women. In pregnant women, there is a phase where urine protein levels increase, namely, lack of fluids, exposure to cold and extreme weather, new strenuous activities, and emotional stress also often causes urine protein levels in pregnant women to increase, and impaired kidney function. or urinary tract infection. The method we used in this research is descriptive research method to describe the levels of hemoglobin (Hb) and urine protein in pregnant women at the Ubud 1 Public Health Center, Gianyar-Bali. With the sampling technique using the probability sampling method, with a simple random sampling technique. The results of 41 respondents, that pregnant women who have normal Hb levels (≥ 11 g/dL) at Puskesmas Ubud 1 were found to be more than pregnant women who have low Hb levels ( 11 g/dL). And from the total sample, as well as 2 pregnant women from the urine protein level examination data were positive. The conclusion after averaging the Hb and urine protein levels of pregnant women at the ubud 1 health center that it can be said that the health condition of pregnant women is quite good, but there are still some respondents who show results that are not in accordance with normal limits, therefore it is important to maintain health and pattern healthy living.Keywords: hemoglobin, urine protein, pregnant women

La retractación de artículos como un problema sistémico
Authors: Torres Vargas Georgina Araceli
Published: December 2022

El presente trabajo aborda el problema del retiro de artículos científicos desde un enfoque holístico. El crecimiento de la producción científica, también ha generado un incremento en el fenómeno denominado como retractación, este es un tema que se ha discutido desde la óptica particular del plagio y en general como un aspecto que se relaciona con la falta de ética por parte del autor o de los autores. Si bien, muchos de los problemas éticos que surgen en el campo de la investigación son considerados como parte de una mala práctica, no debe perderse de vista que al relacionarse con la propiedad de las ideas y con la forma en que éstas se utilizan, hay un amplio rango de factores que no responden del todo a una mala práctica deliberada. Por ello, se ubica a la retractación dentro del sistema de información científica que tiene por objetivo la producción de conocimiento y que es caracterizado por una diversidad de procesos y actores. Se analiza a la retractación como un fenómeno sistémico.

Harmonisasi Sebagai Jalan Interspiritualitas Dalam Relasi Kristen-Islam di Toraja
Authors: Manguju Yudha Nugraha
Published: December 2022

Religious practices often contribute to violence and divisions in society. This is due to self-understanding that feels the most correct and views ethnic, religious, racial, and intergroup differences (SARA) as a threat, which in the future can plunge people into religious fanaticism. This paper uses a qualitative-descriptive research method with a literature study approach to books and journals on religious life in Toraja that discuss the topic of inter-spirituality. This article shows how interreligious life now needs to be surpassed and developed into inter-spirituality as a lifestyle of religious people in the context of a plural society. Therefore, this paper aims to explore local values (local wisdom) as an effort to establish and build religious relations that integrated the concept of harmonization. Thus, the concept of harmonization can be a path of inter-spirituality that has the values of openness, equality, justice, unity, togetherness, and karapasan (peace) in building relations between religious people in Toraja. Harmony is important because it shows an attitude of living together that is cooperative, honest, open, peaceful, orderly, fair, peaceful, and holistic.
Abstrak: Praktik keagamaan acap kali memberi sumbangsih terhadap kekerasan hingga perpecahan dalam masyarakat. Hal tersebut disebabkan oleh pemahaman diri yang merasa paling benar dan memandang perbedaan suku, agama, ras dan antargolongan (SARA) sebagai suatu ancaman, yang dikemudian hari dapat menjerumuskan manusia pada sikap fanatisme beragama.  Tulisan ini menggunakan metode penelitian kualitatif-deskriptif dengan pendekatan studi pustaka atas buku dan sejumlah jurnal mengenai kehidupan keberagamaan di Toraja yang membahas topik interspiritualitas. Artikel ini memperlihatkan bagaimana kehidupan interreligius kini perlu dilampaui dan dikembangkan menjadi interspiritualitas sebagai pola hidup umat beragama dalam konteks masyarakat plural. Oleh karena itu, tulisan ini bertujuan menggali nilai lokal (local wisdom) sebagai upaya untuk menjalin dan membangun relasi umat beragama yang menyatu dalam konsep harmonisasi. Dengan demikian, konsep harmonisasi dapat menjadi jalan interspiritualitas yang memiliki nilai keterbukaan, kesetaraan, keadilan, kesatuan, kebersamaan dan karapasan (kedamaian) dalam membangun relasi antarumat beragama di Toraja. Keharmonisan menjadi penting karena menunjukkan sikap hidup bersama yang bergotong royong, jujur, terbuka, tentram, tertib, adil, damai dan holistik.

Published: December 2022

Stock price prediction is an important topic for investors and companies. The increasing effect of machine learning methods in every field also applies to stock forecasting. In this study, it is aimed to predict the future prices of the stocks of companies in different sectors traded on the Borsa Istanbul (BIST) 30 Index. For the study, the data of two companies selected as examples from each of the holding, white goods, petrochemical, iron and steel, transportation and communication sectors were analyzed. In the study, in addition to the share analysis of the sectors, the price prediction performances of the machine learning algorithm on a sectoral basis were examined. For these tests, XGBoost, Support Vector Machines (SVM), K-nearest neighbors (KNN) and Random Forest (RF) algorithms were used. The obtained results were analyzed with mean absolute error (MAE), mean absolute percent error (MAPE), mean squared error (MSE), and R2 correlation metrics. The best estimations on a sectoral basis were made for companies in the Iron and Steel and Petroleum field. One of the most important innovations in the study is the examination of the effect of current macro changes on the forecasting model. As an example, the effect of the changes in the Central Bank Governors, which took place three times in the 5-year period, on the forecast was investigated. The results showed that the unpredictable effects on the policies after the change of Governors also negatively affected the forecast performance

Aspectos fundamentales del diagnóstico y tratamiento de la glomerulonefritis difusa aguda
Authors:   , Marchisotti Alfredo Eduardo
Published: December 2022

Glomerulonefritis difusa aguda es una enfermedad eminentemente post-infecciosa, que se hace presente cuando la afección infecciosa comienza a declinar, que no hay relación entre la gravedad de la infección causal y la complicación renal y que el estreptococo en especial el hemolítico, sin pretender ser exclusivo, tiene un rol de primer plano. El diagnóstico de esta enfermedad es muy fácil cuando se nos presenta el enfermo con la tríada sintomática clásica: edema, hipertensión arterial y síndrome urinario (albuminuria, hematuria, cilindruria y eliguria). En cambio nos será más incierto el diagnóstico cuando se nos presentan solo algunos de estos síntomas y más aún si aparecen en forma atenuada. De ahí que a muchos enfermos lo veamos ya con su nefritis crónica, ignorando todo el proceso anterior que en forma solapada ha transcurrido en ellos.

In December 12, 2006, a nest was found on a tree (Caesalpinia pothoroides), 2.8 m above the ground. This nest contained a white egg with dark red and brown patches. A few days later, no eggs were found in this nest. Other nesting attempt was recorded on October 9, 2007, when a chick was found in the same place used as nesting site in 2006. The young was not found in the next days. Our study is the first to document the nesting of N. griseus in the Cerrado core area.
BUSINESS VALUATION WITH IRREGULAR CAPITAL EXPENDITURES
Authors: MURINA Hanna
Published: December 2022

Introduction. The assumption of steady-state annual growth in perpetuity may be justified for cash flows from business operations. However, this assumption is less justified for capital expenditures, which are inherently irregular expenditures on long-term assets. In addition, the irregularity of capital expenditures is a particular characteristic of capital-intensive industries, infrastructure businesses, real estate businesses, and small and medium-sized businesses. To estimate business value in such cases, we propose an improvement that makes the method of discounted cash flows more universal and reliable.

The purpose of the article is to derive a formula for normalization of irregular capital expen­ditures taking into account the impact of inflation and real growth.

Results. Business valuation methodology has been complemented with an improvement, which is the formula for normalizing irregular capital expenditures in terminal year. The correct­ness of the normalization formula is verified by a simulated valuation model of discounted cash flows with a long forecast period. The model indicates that the rules of thumb, such as equating capital expenditures to depreciation, are a source of inaccuracy in business valuations, while the proposed normalization formula is a solution for justified valuation without restrictive and, in many cases, unrealistic assumptions of infinite divisibility and even renewal of fixed assets.

Conclusions. The proposed normalization formula increases the reliability of business valuation with irregular capital expenditures and makes the DCF valuation with Gordon growth model more universal.

En este proyecto se diseñó una prensa hidráulica para realizar placas de hojuelas de plástico de polietileno de alta densidad (HDPE) reciclado. Para llevar a cabo el diseño, se realizó un análisis de las presiones y de las temperaturas necesarias para poder darle la forma adecuada y que el plástico se aglomerara de manera correcta. Una vez conocidos estos datos, se calculó la fuerza necesaria que debía aportar el pistón hidráulico, fuerza con la cual se hizo un análisis del sistema hidráulico y se realizó el diagrama hidráulico, observando las funciones que se requerían. La fuerza de cierre de la prensa fue de hasta 676 KN, mientras que la temperatura con la cual entró el molde a la prensa fue de hasta 285 °C. Se comenzó por seleccionar la unidad de potencia, continuando con el actuador que fue un pistón de doble acción para comprimir y levantar la tapa de los moldes. Finalmente, en esta etapa se seleccionaron las mangueras y las válvulas de control. Conocida la fuerza para la compresión, se determinaron los materiales que serían utilizados en la estructura de la prensa, seleccionándose preferentemente perfiles comerciales por su fácil adquisición, armado, mantenimiento y para reducir los costos de la estructura. Lograda la estructura tipo H de la prensa, se establecieron las dimensiones de las platinas que tendrán la función de distribuir la fuerza de compresión en los moldes de las distintas medidas. Finalmente, se realizó el diseño de la prensa hidráulica con ayuda de un programa de diseño asistido llamado SolidWorks®.

Published: December 2022

This is a comparetive study that was conducted over a period of 18 months in Burdwan Medical College and Hospital, to determine the
effectiveness of high tibial osteotomy and proximal bulectomy in management of non-traumatic medial uni-compartmental knee osteoarthritis in
middle age group(40-60) years patients of both sexes. There were a total of 20 patients studied during a period of 18 months.It was found that
though Pre-Op Femorotibial Angle was signicantly high in High Tibial Osteotomy patients compared to Proximal Fibulectomy patients, Post-Op
Femorotibial Angle at 6 months and at 9 months was signicantly decreased in High Tibial Osteotomy compared to Proximal Fibulectomy patients.
Also that Post-Op Medial /Lat Joint Ratio and Post-Op Medial Lat Joint Space at 6 months were signicantly decreased in Proximal Fibulectomy
compared to High Tibial Osteotomy patients. The present study demonstrates the High tibial osteotomy effectively relieves the pain and improves
the joint function in the patients with medial compartment osteoarthritis of knee by shifting the mechanical axis. Z test and Pearson correlation
analysis shows Distribution of mean post-Op (6 months) Femorotibial Angle with Group was statistically signicant (p=0.0424). Distribution of
mean post-Op (9 months) Femorotibial Angle with Group was statistically signicant (p=0.0491). However due to small numbers of sample size in
my study, larger study is recommended to attain this conclusion. In conclusion, High tibial osteotomy seems to be a better option as compared to
proximal bulectomy in terms of functional outcome.
A STUDY ON ROLE OF CORTICAL MASTOIDECTOMY IN CASES OF TYPE 1 TYMPANOPLASTY
Authors: Sai R. Sasank , Malpani Madhusudhan , Wadhwa Ishita
Published: December 2022

Chronic otitis media (COM) is an inammatory process in the middle-ear space that results in long term, or permanent changes in the tympanic
membrane including atelectasis, perforation, tympanosclerosis, retraction pocket development, or cholesteatoma [1]. COM is a major cause of
acquired hearing impairment especially in developing countries.1 According to WHO, prevalence rate of COM in India accounts for 7.8% which is
high.2 Perforation in tympanic membrane leads to hearing loss and recurrent ear infections. Persistent perforations occur either due to improper
treatment of recurrent otitis media or infected traumatic perforation. Primary goal of treatment for COM (mucosal) is elimination of the chronic
inammatory process. The secondary goal is reconstruction of sound conducting mechanism [10]. Tympanoplasty is a procedure to eradicate
disease in the middle ear to reconstruct hearing mechanism with or without tympanic membrane grafting [2]. Various types of graft materials
including temporalis fascia, cartilage, perichondrium, periosteum, vein, fat or skin have been used in the reconstruction of tympanic membrane
(TM) perforation. Although temporalis fascia ensures good hearing is restored, there are signicant concerns that its dimensional stability
characteristics may lead to residual perforation, especially where large TM perforations are involved. The “palisade cartilage” and “cartilage
island” techniques have been stated to increase the strength and stability of a tympanic graft, but they may result in a less functional outcome in
terms of restoring hearing[3]. Smoking habits, the size and site of a perforation, the expertise level of the operating surgeon, age, gender, the status
of the middle ear mucosa and the presence of myringosclerosis or tympanosclerosis are all important in determining how successful a graft is[4].

Published: December 2022

Background: Liver cirrhosis is the production, in response to chronic liver injury, of degenerative nodules surrounded by brous band. Cirrhotic
patients may also have renal, respiratory, hemodynamic and cardiac dysfunction, which increases morbidity and mortality in addition to liver
damage. The prevalence of cirrhotic cardiomyopathy is estimated to be between 40 - 50 % in cirrhosis. Present study was aimed to study cardiac
prole in patients of liver cirrhosis. Material and Methods: Present study was single-center, observational, cross-sectional study, conducted in
patients of age > 18 years, diagnosed case of liver cirrhosis. Child-Pugh-Turcotte Score & MELD Score were calculated. Results: Present study
included a total of 103 study participants. The mean age of the study participants was 46.66 ± 9.31 years, majority were males (90.29%) History of
alcohol (85.44%) was the most common etiology seen followed by Hepatitis B (9.71%). According to their Child Pugh scores, most (88.35%) of
the patients of liver cirrhosis belonged to class C, According to their MELD scores most (88.35%) of the patients of liver cirrhosis belonged to class
3. We found a statistically signicant association between the Child Pugh's class and MELD class (χ2 (1, n=103) =52.956, p = 0.001). The patients
of liver cirrhosis who participated in our study are disproportionately distributed in CPclass C and MELD class 3 as compared to the CPclass B and
MELD class 2. Conclusion: Diastolic dysfunction is common in patients of liver cirrhosis irrespective of CPand MELD class. Patients of CPclass
C and MELD class 3 should be monitored for QTprolongation.

To report a case of cephalo-thoracophagus janicep monosymmetros. A 30 year old female of child bearing age came to the department of radiology
for routine obstetric ultrasonography with gestational age of 30 weeks. Patient had never conceived previously. In the current pregnancy patient
had complaints in relation with the pregnancy. Routine ultrasonography was performed to obtain diagnostic output. Radiological evaluation
revealed conjoined monochorionic monoamniotic twin pregnancy. Detailed screening revealed fusion of head (cephalophagus) with two sided
face of which single eye on one ventral side (cyclops) and two eyes on the dorsal side (Janicep) along with fusion of the thorax (thoracophagus).
'Janicep' is derived from the word Janus, the two faced roman God. The presence of this prototype makes the case report of a rare variety. Cephalothoracophagus janicep monosymmetros has a prevalence 1:50,000 to 1:200,000 with a male:female ratio of 1:3. However post caesarean delivery
of the conjoined twin revealed female sex making the case report more rare.
Parametric separation of variables and the complete propagation law
Authors: Guruprasad V.
Published: December 2022

Solving partial differential equations by separation of variables is historically thought to require equating the parts to a constant. Shown, with robust observational support, is that equating to a function of time yields a dimension of novel solutions to the wave equation. They transform known solutions in time, represent Doppler with acceleration, and correct wave idealizations that wrongly constrained fundamental physics, as well as communication and spectrum use.

This is a draft version meant to time-stamp & share for comments mainly the following:

discovery of incompleteness of Fourier's method and the full separation of variables for the wave equation (Section 2, Appendices A, B);

discovery of Green's function wave solutions with intrinsic phase acceleration and expansion (Section 3);

first explanation of the range data lags in the flyby anomalies (Sections 4, 5 and Appendix C);

elegant proof of redundancy of quantization postulate (improving over arXiv:1602.04136, Appendix D); and

possible redundancy of speed of light postulate over variable measuring rods and clocks (Section 7 conclusion).

An equivalence principle between true acceleration in Doppler and uplink transmitter frequency ramp appears already implied by the similarity of the anomalies with ramping (NEAR) and without (Rosetta 2005).

This revision corrects the volume of tracking data that was involved in the NASA/ESA trajectory analyses (pp 10,11).
Orthogonal Multi-frequency Fusion Based Image Reconstruction and Diagnosis in Diffuse Optical Tomography

Identifying breast cancer lesions with a portable diffuse optical tomography (DOT) device improves early detection, while avoiding otherwise unnecessarily invasive, ionizing, and expensive modalities such as CT, as well as enabling first line of care treatment efficacy. Critical to this capability is not just identification of lesions, but rather the complex problem of discriminating between malignant and benign lesions. To accurately capture the highly heterogeneous tissue of a cancer lesion embedded in healthy breast tissue with non-invasive DOT, multiple frequencies can be combined to optimize signal penetration and reduce sensitivity to noise. However, these frequency responses can overlap, capture common information, and correlate, potentially confounding reconstruction and downstream end tasks. We show that an orthogonal fusion loss of multi-frequency DOT can improve reconstruction. More importantly, the orthogonal fusion leads to more accurate end-to-end identification of malignant versus benign lesions, illustrating its regularization properties on the multi-frequency input space. With the line-of-care deployment of portable DOT probes requiring a severely constrained computational budget, we show that our raw-to-task model, for direct prediction of end task from signal, significantly reduces computational complexity without sacrificing accuracy, enabling lower latency and higher, real-time throughput in medical settings. 
Explainable Machine Learning for API Call Sequence Analysis
Authors: Khan Muhammad
Published: December 2022

Although deep learning achieves state-of-the-art performance in tasks like vulnerability detection and classification, they have drawbacks. A significant disadvantage of deep learning methods is their inexplicability. Many deep learning models, especially sequential models like long short-term memories and gated recurrent units, operate as black-boxes. The outputs of these black-box models are uninterpretable by security analysts and software developers. This inexplicability of deep learning models hinders their acceptance in enterprises. It also prevents the knowledgeable system experts from removing the spurious correlations that the model might have learned. Thus, it is highly desirable to have explainable deep learning models to promote their acceptance in real-world systems. Another major drawback of deep learning is adversarial machine learning. Cyber attackers can utilize adversarial machine learning to fool the deep learning-based cyber-attack detectors. Prior research has shown that cyber-defenders can use explainable artificial intelligence to defend against adversarial machine learning attacks. Therefore, adding explainability to deep learning models for cyber-security is highly desirable. This article proposes a method that enhances the explainability of system-call sequence analysis-based vulnerability detection. Our method can potentially pinpoint the precise instruction calls that have triggered the vulnerability. This insight is valuable for the security analyst as he can now evaluate the sequence of system calls more efficiently.
Experimental Investigation of the Effect of Transient Overvoltages on XLPE-insulated HVDC Cables
Authors: Diban Bassel
Published: December 2022

HVDC cables are subject to several types of impulses superimposed on the rated DC voltage during their service lifetime. Temporary Overvoltages TOVs and Superimposed Switching impulses SSIs are considered some of the most challenging due to the relatively long impulse duration. This paper aims at investigating experimentally the effect of TOVs and SSIs on XLPE insulation for extruded HVDC cables. 0.15-mm-thick DC-XLPE specimens, aged by applying TOVs and SSIs, are characterized using dielectric analyzer and Fourier Transform InfraRed spectroscopy (FTIR) to detect the aging effects on the insulation. Results show an increase in the imaginary part of permittivity, ε", accompanied with the appearance of additional dipolar polarization losses peaks. The amplitude and frequency of the aforementioned peaks vary with the amplitude and the number of applied TOVs and SSIs. An increase in electrical conductivity is also noticed with aging. FTIR results show absorbance peaks in the aged specimens likely due to the intramolecular bonds rupture accompanied with the formation of aging products.

Marburg virus and the disease it causes
Authors: Markin Vladimir A.
Published: December 2022

Over the 50 years since its discovery, many properties of the Marburg virus have been studied, but no reliable medical remedies of preventing and treating the infection it causes have been developed, although it can potentially cause large-scale epidemics.
Marburg fever is relevant due to the risk of importation to other countries. The source of infection in nature is bats (reservoir) and monkeys (intermediate host), and the routes of transmission are aerosol, contact and alimentary. The mortality rate in recent outbreaks has reached 90%. In convalescents the causative agent was identified in tears, semen, and liver biopsies weeks and months after recovery.
The lack of therapeutic and prophylactic antiviral drugs, high rates of mortality, infectivity, the ability of aerosol contamination, and a high epidemic potential all together define Marburg fever as a serious global threat to international health. The development of medical protection against this infection should be an urgent task of ensuring the biological safety of the population of the Russian Federation.
The most promising ways to develop vaccines against Marburg fever are the construction of recombinants based on adenovirus, vesicular stomatitis virus or alphavirus replicon, DNA vaccines. A reliable protective effect of the chemotherapy drug remdesivir in combination with human antibodies, as well as an etiotropic drug with an antisense mechanism of action and an interferon inducer has been shown. In model experiments with pseudovirus, fundamentally new ways of developing pathogen inhibitors were found preventing its exit from cells, as well as the construction of anti-gene-binding Fab fragments that inhibit the synthesis of viral RNA.

Introduction. The Culex pipiens mosquito is one of the proven vectors of the West Nile virus (WNV). Culex pipiens f. molestus (Cx. p. f. molestus) is a synanthropic, autogenous, widespread form of the species that can feed on a broad range of hosts, including humans. The temperature of the habitat of insects affects the potential for virus transmission, which determines the likelihood of them carrying the pathogen of West Nile fever.
The goal is an experimental study of the temperature of the habitat of larvae on the competence of mosquitoes Cx. p. f. molestus as carriers of WNV.
Materials and methods. We used a strain of the WNV (WNV_Volg601/18 genotype 2) and a laboratory culture of mosquitoes Cx. p. f. molestus. The concentration of the virus was detected by plaque formation using Vero cells. Insects were infected orally at the larval stage, with subsequent incubation at 20, 22 or 28C. 72 hours after the emergence of all adults from the pupae, the mosquitoes were immobilized by cold, the sex of imago was determined, the salivary glands were isolated from the females, and the presence of WNV in glandes and its titer were detected.
Results. The titer of WNV sufficient to transmit the pathogen through the insect biting was observed in the salivary glands of insects kept at a temperature of 22 and 28C, with the virus titer rising with the temperature increasing. No virus was detected in the salivary glands of female insects kept at a temperature of 20C.
Conclusion. Thus, it appears that the habitat temperature is an important factor limiting the replication and content of WNV in the salivary glands of Cx. p. f. molestus.
